Jasper sat upon his throne clothed in his gold armor. His fingers drummed against the armrest as he was lost in deep thought. Granted he had now achieved his goal, hell he had succeeded where many villains failed, he had beaten the mane six and the princesses. But despite all of his victories and success he felt…empty. Granted it had been two days since his marriage with Chrysalis and he had single handily cemented his empires might. He sighed as he shook his head, his gazed locked on Flash Sentry.
“Am I a good king?”
Flash was surprised by the statement, “Sire?”
Jasper shook his head, “I’ve given my subjects security and safety, yet they still fear me,” he glanced at Flash once more, “have I been and am a good king?”
Flash Sentry looked to the side for a moment, “Well…permission to speak freely?”
Jasper nodded, “Granted.”
“You've done several actions that not only are considered evil, but borderline on psychotic,” he inhaled as a light layer of sweat appeared on his coat, “So with all due respect, the ponies have every right to hate you.”
Jasper nodded slowly as he stood, “Understood.”
“Sire,” Flash walked beside him, “You seem tired as of late, is everything all right?”
Jasper’s eyes narrowed, “No…nothings alright.”
He opened the doors to the still destroyed hall of stained glass windows. The gem flared dangerously bright as his eyes scanned the area.
“Flash…leave me. No matter what happens, do not open this door.”
Flash was about to object but nodded as he shut the door.
Jasper stood with his back to the doors that had once held the elements of harmony’s box, but within it now rested the element of magic. Jasper sighed as he clenched his right fist, the left fist’s blades gleamed dangerously.
“So…you decide to darken my vision once more, eh Princesses?”
Behind him, Celestia and Luna emerged with looks of justified fury upon their faces.
“Your tyranny is over Jasper,” Celestia spoke in a serious tone, “Surrender now.”
Jasper laughed in response, “How little you forget, I defeated both of you last we met.”
Luna grit her teeth, “That was because we were holding back; we did not wish to harm you. My sister was under the impression that you could see sense. But it is now clear that is not an option.”
Jasper smiled coldly, “So Sunset freed you then?”
The royal sisters blinked but maintained their composure.
“Ah, so I’m right,” he crossed his arms as the two ponies and king began to circle each other, “Why else would she and the two of you vanish in the same instance. But I’m deviating from the point at hand. Why have you truly come here? Surely avenging yourselves upon me isn’t the only reason.”
Celestia stepped forward as gold battle armor materialized on her, “No it’s not, we have come to retrieve the Element of Magic. But if you insist on stopping us,” a halberd with a golden shaft adorned with ornate patterns with a scalding white blade materialized before her, “We WILL cut you down.”
Luna’s battle armor was jet black and a scythe with an azure blade whereas the shaft looked like a gnarled branch of black metal scraped along the ground.
Jasper was surprised for once, “You two never struck me as violent, I suppose the show didn’t capture your true essences as a whole,” Jasper however steadied himself; “However I can’t let you take that.”
Luna narrowed her eyes, “Then prepare for battle.”
Jasper’s right hand opened and a red crystal shot out of it with a gold handle attached to it. He grasped the handle immediately as he raised the crystal sword in a challenging manner.
“Bring it on ponies.”
The three then charged each other.
*
Twilight paced nervously around the library, the fact that Celestia and Luna had left to confront Jasper once more unnerved her. Sunset on the other hoof was going over Jasper’s notes with a look of interest and what could be considered mild respect.
“You got to give the guy credit,” Sunset chuckled, “He played you guys for chumps.”
The girls glared at her to which she raised her hooves, “Whoa, I was just kidding.”
Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes, “Not cool.”
Sunset trotted over to Twilight, “Something bothering you Sparkle?”
“Yes,” she sighed, “I’m just unsure if Celestia and Luna are enough to beat Jasper.”
Sunset elbowed her slightly, “Hey, this is OUR teacher we’re talking about, she’ll do fine.”
Twilight glanced at Sunset, “But the thing of it is, Jasper’s sanity is being sapped by the gem. That coupled with all the stress he’s most likely dealing with, he might become an even bigger monster than me and the girls have ever faced before.”
Sunset glared at the castle.
*
Celestia swung hard at Jasper who caught her blow with his crystal blade. Behind him, Luna went for a powerful vertical swing which Jasper quickly rolled to the side of. The scythe blade buried itself in the floor much to Luna’s anger. Celestia rained a flurry of jabs at the human who was forced to back up to avoid, smacking aside those that threatened to reach him. Jasper felt sweat on his brow as the royal sisters attacked him left and right in an attempt to exploit his blind spots. Jasper rolled, parried and deflected to the best of his abilities. Luna swung wide and got him in the stomach, a crunch echoed through the hall as Jasper smacked into the far wall. His vision swam as he felt warmth begin to coat his skin. He glanced down and mentally thanked god that the scythe hadn't pierced his armor fully, it had however gone in a fair amount. He looked up as he felt the gem burn with power, the warmth spread through him as he stood. He saw red as he advanced slowly on the sisters, his blade dragging and kicking up sparks. Their voices muffled as he approached.
“Jasper stop, I do not wish to end your life!”
Jasper raised his sword and struck. Celestia was on the defensive, Luna attempted to join the fray, but she was hurled away by a wave of Jasper’s right hand. Jasper’s sword came as a red flash as his vision became red with each blow. He felt his throat vibrate as he let loose a roar, his sword breaking through Celestia’s front armor. She staggered back as the human descended upon her. He brought his sword back and with adrenaline as well as magic fueled strength, he slashed her weapon in twain. Celestia attempted to flee to a better vantage point, Jasper swung.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”
Celestia’s right wing flew wide and landed with a plop as the solar princess’s blood erupted from the wound. She smashed into the ground hard.
*
Luna looked on in horror as the golden clad human drenched in her sister’s blood turned toward her. The stare he possessed was akin to a force of nature, they were cold, unfeeling, and now lacked mercy.
Luna then roared out in anger, “DIE CREATURE!!!”
Jasper muttered one word, “Trash.”
He snapped his fingers as red energy swords materialized and hurled at full speed at Luna who gazed on in horror, the swords struck their mark. Two buried themselves in Luna’s back as she attempted to veer away. Another struck her right shoulder, four impaled each wing. The last sword struck her below the neck. Both royal sisters lay bleeding at Jasper’s feet, he impaled his sword beside Celestia’s head. His vision cleared as he took in what had transpired around him, the red was gone. But what he did see, lingering at the dark corners were the shadows. They gazed at him in stone silence.
Jasper threw back his head, finally lost, and laughed.
*
A flash of red outside the library alerted the ponies to something out front of the library. They opened the door…and all of them screamed in horror.
Damn! Dark Shadows all over again.
I bet jasper cut off their heads and put them outside the library.
So, unless the elements+shimmer pull something off, I have every right to say that Jasper will win in the end?
3616002
He's already won, i have said this, this is what he does after he has achieved victory.
I no longer see a chance of a Lelouch. Well, let's see what happens next.
Awesome
Well, i imagine for trying to take him down again; Jasper is going to make an example out of Celestia/Luna and the Mane six.
I love this story so damn much i can't even handle it.
Fantastic job
Holly shit... He killed them!!!! FUCK YEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! LIKE A BAWS!!!!!!!!
3615997 ... Yes... Just yes!!!!
Sapping his sanity, eh?
*Ring, ring*
Oh, you'd better pick that up, cause-
I F*CKING CALLED IT!
This story is amazing! I think it takes guts to turn the story in the interesting angle that it's gone in. Kudos.
I don't think he killed them, but definitely a good deal of maiming. We know he just lopped off one of Celestia's wings and trashed both of Luna's among other injuries. That alone would probably be enough to get anypony who saw them afterwords screaming.
...Because Evil Always finds a way
Dude. Total Villian Sue here. It'd be nice if you toned it down a little, huh?
3616150
Opinion noted.
Oh I see how it is.. I'm not good enough for the best author to reply to me :P
3616192
I'm not the best. Compared to others, i'm B-list or C-list
King Jasper is starting to lose my favor...
Reznov: Jasper, Ignatius, Flash Sentry.... All must die.
Number Station: 11 9 12 12 10 1 19 16 5 18 1 19 19 15 15 14 1 19 16 15 19 19 9 2 12 5
The numbers are starting to come back...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HOLY FUCK YES GO JASPER!!!!!!!!!!!!
3616169 Dude fuck dat, this dude is totally BADASS!
3616197
Upper B
3616253 That he is,admittedly he's turned into a bit of a Psycho,But at the same time,The fucker DOES get the job done
3616314
Sanity zapping does that o3o
3616318 He seems to have gained efficiency from it too,What with how he's systematically gaining allies and power
A human that has lost his humanity is natures most deadly beast.
3616350 so true but thats when the fun really happens my friend
BUT WOOO HOO down with them both for the human that will conquer the world and bring totally parodies !
The worst monsters are those that started with good intentions and whose methods got more and more extreme.
Sanity sapping gems that grantcosmic power and whisper you evil ideas are nothelpful in this progress.
3616149 Yes Gnarl. Whatever you say.
and he lostto himself before the lesson ended.
Well they did just try to assassinate the lawful king. I wonder what he did to them.
Maybe killed them and sent the bodies back.
Oh or maybe snicker-snack earth pony princesses.
How about BAM! Princess de Milo pin cushion statues?
A pair of pretty pretty princess Christs, to just hang around?
Wow I need help.
Fear is just as useful as compassion! Take those ponies and stick their heads on a pike!
3616350 We are wonderful, aren't we?
Awwwww. I was hoping Jasper wouldn't have to die. Granted I still want him to kill the main six and their meddling sunset too, but he's gone insane. I wanted him to kill Celestia and Luna(which he did a pretty bang up job at). The behind all this is Diaries of a Madman. All ponies must DIE!
3616235 Black ops, right? fucking love that game. who're u supposed to assassinate next?

This fic is gold.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand they're all totally fucked
a cliffhanger really
Villains for the win!
When your life is threatened or the life of those you hold near your heart are in danger you must do everything to keep them or yourself alive
If you ever heard "Everything is fair in love and war" then that's the closest thing to reality as it could get, if you cant fight with your arms use your legs, when you cant fight with your legs use your teeth, when you cant fight with your teeth use your head, when you cant use your head use your chest, when you cant fight with your chest use your weight but whatever you do don't stop fighting.
Lie, decieve, fool, seduce, threaten, befriend, slaughter, massacre, dismember and obliterate all those who are a threat to your and your loved ones for they shall do the same to you if you lower your guard even if it is for a second.
After all its always the fittest that survive and the weakest that perish isnt it
And it's all Celestia's fault
Evil: 3 good: 1, looks like jaspers not stopping any time soon
I can't even... You know what? Buck it. Take all of my yes! Psycho jasper is awesome. you may continue.
3616537 pretty sure he just sent them back with their wounds
Wow, Celestia and Luna did more than Twilight probably thinks, in Twilights mind, I imagine she thought they were utterly decimated, which did happen, but they drained a whole bunch of his sanity, seriously, this dude isn't even sane anymore.
So really, fighting him a lot can actually be considered killing him.
Seems like Mister Montgomery here is a little cuckoo for cocoa puffs.
Well this is most trashy readable HiE i ever saw.
do you guys thinks that the humans back on earth would see all of this and try to get to equestria and try to kill jasper?
