(For remade chapter) tears sting your eyes. Why won't anyling realize you're trying to help? And now Nightshade, the only little pony that relied on you and supported you is gone.
You are truly alone.
You run into the forest, and slam into every tree you see, trying to harm yourself violently.
"WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY?! WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?! I ONLY WANTED FRIENDS! I ONLY WANTED TO BE GOOD! I ONLY WANTED TO BE ACCEPTED!"
You finally collapse. The bruises; emotional and physical prove to be too much.
"I only wanted to be the hero."
With tears in your eyes, you continue to run. Away from the town. Away from the ponies. Away from the pain and the shame. You can't help but think in despair as you continue to run...
Why won't anyling realize that I'm just trying to help? And now, because I tried to play the hero, Nightshade the only little pony that actually relied on me and supported me... is gone.
You stop in a tree line near a open flied. More tears begin to fall as you remember all the times you had with Nightshade. Suddenly, all you anger explodes and you begin to slam into every tree in the area, trying to harm yourself violently while screaming...
"WHY*wham*WHY*wham*WHY*wham*WHY*wham*WHY?!*wham*WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?!*wham*I ONLY WANTED FRIENDS!*wham*I ONLY WANTED TO BE GOOD!*wham*I ONLY WANTED TO BE ACCEPTED!"*wham*
Finally you collapse onto the ground. The bruises; emotional and physical prove to be too much. You begin to remember all the times you were with Nightshade. Her cat-like eyes, her black coat, her huge appetite, her strange looking armor, her... her...
You think of all the things you could see in your little Nightshades beautiful starry mane, and say,
"Space, common stars, galaxies, black holes, Orion, the Big Dipper... THE BIG DIPPER!" And curl up into a fetal position, mumbling "Wanna go to space, wanna go to space, wanna go to space" to yourself over and over again
Amazing space-like mane. You begin to think of all the things you could see in little Nightshade's beautiful mane, and say "Space, common stars, galaxies, black holes, Orion, the Big Dipper...THE BIG DIPPER!" You then curl up into the fetal position and start crying. Finally, after a few more minutes of tears, your thoughts start to take a darker tone...
In your despair, you consider how no matter what you do, you'll always be alone, everypony will always hate you, and think you're a monster and you hear a tiny dark voice making these dark thoughts worse and tempting you to just give in and take your revenge on the world.
No matter what I say or do, I'll always be alone and I'll always be hated by everyling I meet. I'll just be... a monster. You think to yourself in despair. You then suddenly hear a faint female voice beckon,
"Yessssss, You'll always be alone, no one will ever love you. No one will ever even care for you. You'll always be hated by all. Even your only friends in this worthless town hate you. You tried to be the 'hero' and look how they repay you... With hate, scorn, and pain. You'll always be nothing more than a monster to them. Why not live down to expectations and take your revenge on these pitiful ponies? Become the monster they see you as..."
The voice continues to torment you and tempt you to give in to the rage.
You are in a very fragile and unstable emotional state right now and Celestia have mercy on anypony who dares attack while you're in this state...
You can't help but think that you are in a very fragile and unstable emotional state right now. The fact that you have a tiny voice whispering evil thoughts to you helps prove the unstable part. You hope to Luna that noling attacks you while you're in this state. The midnight colored smoke around you and fox tail are growing larger off of your building sorrow and rage. With luck, noling will find yo-
"There he is!"
You get up, but before you can turn around and see were the voice came from, a rainbow blur knocks you back. As you get up, you hear Rainbow Dash taunt,
"Not so tough now, huh."
The little voice in your head starts to laugh and say,
See! Even in your state of mourning they still interfere! Give into your hate, give into the rage! Show these pitiful ponies what happens when they mess with us! Pay them back a thousand-fold!!!
*Snap*
All your anger, sorrow, pain, grief, and hate explodes at once. You also hear this in the background and it makes you smile wickedly.
Rainbow Dash charges at you, but with an enraged scream you lash out with a Falcon Punch that connects head-on with the pegasus's face. The force of the blow sends the athlete flying back until she smashes through a pair of trees.
"RAINBOW DASH!" the ponies cry out. You turn and see that Applejack, Twilight, Rarity, and Pinkie all followed you. Your anger spikes even more and the midnight colored smoke and fox tail becomes more unstable. You hear Twilight scream,
"Get him!!!" and you snarl in anger. So you decide to settle old scores with the ponies...
“I WAS the one who watched over the innocent!”
Applejack charges at you in a rage, but you block her with forcefield stunning the farmpony. Before she can recover, you let down the forcefield and shoryuken the farm pony, sending her flying to where Rainbow Dash is.
“I WAS the one who protected those who can't protect themselves!”
As you walk forward, you dodge Pinkie Pie's party cannon with teleport and teleport right in front of her. Before the shocked pony can blast you, you hit the barrel of the party cannon with a hook that makes the cannon spin around and hit the party pony with enough force to knock to Applejack and Rainbow Dash like a baseball.
“I AM the shadow that now follows the path of evil!”
You teleport behind Rarity and buck the fashionista before she can react, sending her into her fallen friends.
“I am the beaten dog biting back!”
You dodge another magic blast and teleport behind Twilight. Horn glowing, she whirls around to blast you with a another spell, but you slap her horn to cancel her attack and daze the unicorn before following up with a charged-up point-blank stun spell that knocks the librarian backwards into the pile of defeated ponies.
You rise into the air, glaring at the ponies knocked to the ground, and scream your defiance down on them. Your rage builds with every word. Your power grows with every look of fear and anger sent up at you. You charge up another spell, not knowing what it is, and Luna forgive you, you don't want to stop it.
“I!”
You use your fox tail to lift you up into the air.
“AM!”
You charge up a big attack ball with power you didn't know you had. You don't know what it is or what it'll do, but Luna forgive you you don't want it to stop!
“THE HOODED OFFENDER!!!”
With each word you say your rage builds, and the voice in your head keeps saying over and over,
Yess! Yesss! Kill them! KILL THEM ALL!!!
Just as you're about to fire the death ball at them, you hear something that makes you stop dead in your tracks...
"DADDY! STOOOOP!!!"
What do you do?
Bugze pauses, seeing the filly, before looking back and forth between her and the mane six, debating wether or not to kill them before the look on not only their faces but nightshades as well break his resolve, making him power down the spell and run further into the forest crying while nightshade chases after him.
The magic dissapates and you think you can hear a tiny hiss of disappointment. You look down at Nightshade to meet her gaze, her eyes filled with anger, anxiousness, and exasperation, but not a single trace of fear. You gently float back down to the ground and stare at Nightshade. Not another second goes by before you wrap her up in a huge hug, not letting go. Nightshade looks at you and whispers to you in a worried tone.
"You...were a monster..." she murmurs. Your gaze softens and you can feel tears well up as the filly returns your tight, protective hug.
"I miss my daddy"
And suddenly there's an explosion in your heart. All traces of fear, doubt, anger, and confusion are blasted away from your soul and replaced with nothing but joy and...
"!" Your eyes widen and you clench your chest as a painful yet pleasant sensation settles in your heart.
Love.
"O...Ok. Magus, it will be ok. Now....um...Doctor, if you don't take us to Earth DWC says a certain video will be posted on the internet!"
This is how the chapter went:
"Ni- Nightshade? Y- you're alive? How? I saw you get crushed."
Also, reaction to this chapter. First I thought of:
And then I was like...
somofos.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/20154993.jpg
And at the very end I was all:
4613094
Doctor: WHAT?!?!!? DWC promised never to post that video of me making out with that poster of Ros-I mean uhhhh right whee off then. Grab your freind
Magus:So cold, so cold
Doctor: Righttttt,anyway lets go, Allons-y!
Nightshade mentions that "the nice ponies in the blue box" picked her up. (BTW, is 'The Inventory' still intact? Maybe either Nightshade or Derpy (or even Doctor Whooves) gives it back to Bugze)
Fluttershy somehow gets involved (perhaps either to help talk Bugze down or to try to keep her friends from attacking Bugze while he's with Nightshade)
INCOMING URSA MAJOR!!! (Probably NOT happy at the fact that you beat up her baby)
Quick! Redirect blast at the giant space bear!
My reactions to this chapter
1. Poor Bugze...
2. Damn it Rainbow Dash...
3. Oh shii... take mushrooms.
4. Wh- bu- she- SHE LIVES!
I'm at the "Movie Weapons Galore" vault and I've supplemented my arsenal with the lever-action 10 gauge shotgun and the minigun from Terminator 2: Judgement Day, the M202 FLASH quadruple rocket launcher from Commando, my namesake from Death Wish 3, and a whole bunch of ammo for all of my weapons (Thank you hammerspace-equipped longcoat)
Anyone get the space core reference I put in?
Go to the 59 second mark. I didn't get the quote exactly right, but... I tried!
4615416 YES OH MY GOD PORTAL 2
My reaction to the ending of the chapter...and pretty much everything else
4614633 (squee!) he said it! I mean, um, right, of course! (drags Magus into the TARDIS)
You whisper "Nightshade..." And your uncontrollable rage is tamed. You float down to where she is. Right before she can react, you scoop her into the largest hug thought possible, whispering about how upset you were into her ear.
Behind you, the Mane 6 get to their feet. You notice this, and before they can react, you scream in the RCV "FUS RO DAH" sending them backwards and raising a strange wall of dust, allowing you to teleport away safely with Nightshade... Straight in front of Luna and Celestia.
Here is my theory on how nightshade is alive
1. That no matter how much damage the item that holds the hammer space, the items inside cannot gets damaged due to the infinite space there is
2. Trixie could have taken the saddle bag with her
3. Nightshade simply left the saddle bag in search for food and was oblivious to bugze annihilate and completely wrench a ursa minor until he ran off
This would have been a more interesting story if someone had the guts to go through with it and kill 'em. It's getting rather boringly predictable and nonsensical.
Rip any hope of having a grim dark funtime but k my boyo.
Yay Nightshade
