//------------------------------// // Night six: Luna, the grand finale // Story: A Nightmarish arrival // by TheImperialBrony //------------------------------// Third person, no POV of anyone. Luna woke with a start as she felt the hellish power across her dream kingdom. It was invading her kingdom. Hers! She will not tolerate this at all as she pushed herself into falling back to sleep to combat this evil and end it once and for all... Luna found herself in a pitch black landscape with empty space. She looked around, she could feel the evils lurking in this place and set herself at the ready. She heard footsteps to her right and jumped out of the way as NM Foxy jumped to grab her and end her. She spun around to face the new threat. Foxy got up and faced her with a ready stance. "Begone foul Nightmare!!!" Luna yelled as she let loose a beam of magic from her horn. It struck Foxy head on as he jumped at her. Upon impacting him, he let lose a shriek of pain and fell apart into pieces and vanishing into red dust, hopefully free from his prison as a Nightmare. Luna panted as for the shriek had stunned her and left her breathless. But she still felt more evils approaching her. She steadied herself for another attack. Her ears swiveled looking for a sound from any location as her eyes kept a lookout. She heard running as another Nightmare, this time it was Chica, came after her. Luna let loose a growl and fired beam after beam at Chica. She kept dodging every shot but when she got close one hit her and she died the same way as Foxy before her but into yellow-gold dust. Luna grunted as the shriek came and assaulted her ears once again. She moved onward for a few minutes till she heard another Nightmare, Bonnie. Bonnie was a bit more smarter than the other two and stayed to the shadows, away from Luna's light spell. When he was right behind her he leaped for her only to get sidestepped by her expertly. He growled and swung his hand upward at Luna, hopping to land a blow on her. He missed and hit the ground below her. She flew backward with a flap of her wings and let loose a beam at him. He hpped out of the way and leaped at her once again. This time Luna was ready for him. As Bonnie flew toward her, she cast a cloaking spell upon herself and moved away. Bonnie landed with a thud and got up growling at how he was cheated of his win over Luna. He let loose a shriek as he was struck in the back by Luna's beam and turned to Purple-blue dust. Luna looked around for more and got more. Right when she turned around she found Freddy jumping at her with extended arms. She yelled in alarm and fell down upon Freddy's weight with him on top. She kept him from hurting her with her hooves, keeping his teeth from getting close to her face. "You are a ugly one are you?" she yelled under him. She started charging her horn to blast him away. Freddy was too focused on getting to her face to see the blast hitting him and sending him flying away from her. Upon hitting the ground he vanished into red-brown dust. Luna got up and started to catch her breath when she heard more footsteps from the left of her. She groaned. "Come on! How many are of you are there?!" she yelled. "Only six, my dear Luna." came the reply. Luna gasped and looked toward the new being that showed up for the fun. Fredbear. "Who are you?!" she asked staring daggers at him. "Me? I am Fredbear and this," he moved a hand to his right showing two blood red eyes. "is Nightmare." He looked back at Luna. "We will not have you come into our realm and rid us of it. You shall be stopped here and now!" Fredbear bellowed taking combat stance. "You will never hurt anypony ever again! You will be forever forgotten! You will fall by my hoof! I rule the dreams, not you!" she yelled back taking a stance as well. Fredbear laughed. "You will never win, two versus one." he said motioning Nightmare. "Ah, but you forget one thing." He chuckled. "And that is?" he asks leaning forward and cupping his ear. "YOU ARE FIGHTING A PRINCESS OF CANTERLOT AND EQUESTRIA!!!" She bellows using the Royal Canterlot voice. Fredbear roared and leaped at Luna. Luna returned a growl and beams of magic at him. He landed on the ground where she had been just a moment ago, he looked up to see her with a smile that made Fredbear gag. He bellowed again and charged, dodging the beams directed at him with swift movements. Luna growled and began charging up her horn for a massive attack as he closed in on her. She let it loose and it hit him in the gut before it was blocked by his quickly disintegrating arms. Luna started yelling as she kept up her attack on him. Fredbear returned with a bellow of pain and anger at his arms. He watched as his arms broke apart and looked over to where Nightmare last was and found him....smiling. Fredbear's eyes widen as he realizes what Nightmare is smiling at and yells at him in anger. Nightmare just vanished as he left the darkness. Fredbear turns around to see his arms almost gone, now going to the last bit of exoskeleton. Betrayal filling his robotic heart, he let the beam hit him head on. He let loose a massive shriek of pain before EXPLODING into golden dust. Luna stopped her assault once she saw the dust. She got down on her knees and panted hard at all the energy she spent in that attack. "Thank you." Luna perked up and saw the ghost of a being where Fredbear once stood. She tilted her head in confusion and got up and limped to where it was at. "What are you?" The ghost looked down at her. "My name is Charlie, I was trapped inside Fredbear. He used my soul as a staging point to form a body over. And now that you have killed him...." he looked at Fredbear's dust. "I am free." he turned with a smile. "That is so cruel. why would that happen?" she asked looking into the ghost's eyes. "I...really don't know. But I can't thank you enough that you had rid the world of an evil that even I could not defeat." he replied. "I....I will put a shrine to you in your honor. I promise." He looks down at her and floated to her level and gazed into her eyes. "I thank you, my dear Luna. When you return tell the mane six that...I am sorry." Luna nods in acknowledgement as he smiled and floated back up. She watched as he started glowing. He looked back down at her with a smile. "Thank you again." And he was gone with a flash. Luna started crying at his departure, she was never a fan of deaths. She began her departure of the dream realm. Days after Luna's dream fight, she had sent letters to each of the mane six about Fredbear, informing them that the spirit that was held captive was sorry for what they had to go through. Each of them felt sorrow fill their hearts at a lost of a new friend and Pinkie held a party on that day to celebrate Charlie's death and to pay respects to him. It was not very lively. Even Luna attended the ceremony at the end of the celebration. They hopped that all will be well and they will never go through that again and all will be back to normal someday.
