As Flag Burner is making his address, the Inventory begins to flash. You pull out the Doctor's notebook and find a message.
DO NOT ATTACK FLAG BURNER.
This fight isn't meant for you, my boy. The Nightmare is coming. Only you can stop it.
You need to walk away.
The book shakes as your hooves quiver in rage.
He knows. He knew! He always knew!
Calm your-
Calm? CALM?! He dragged me out of Appleloosa for... for... WHAT?! He knew what was going on and he didn't-
GONG
Deal with him later! The threat is nigh, and you already tried stopping it on your own. We need a plan.
As the projection of the "Hooded Offender" (who's really Flag Burner impersonating you) reflects off the cloudy sky outside the interrogation room of the FIllydelphian Royal Guard headquarters, Captain Shining Armor says,
"Okay, the plan is-"
But is interrupted when something starts to shake from inside the Inventory (which Flash Sentry took off you while "arresting" you). Everypony in the room (You, Flash, and Shining) look at the saddlebag in confusion as Flash reaches in and pulls up "The Doctor's Notebook". He starts to inspect it-
"Yoink! That's for me!"
When you quickly dash over and grab it out of his hooves with your hoof-cuffed hooves. You read it and it says,
Bugze, THIS IS IMPORTANT:
DO NOT ATTACK FLAG BURNER.
This fight isn't meant for you, my boy.
You need to walk away.
The book shakes as your hooves quiver in rage causing you to shout,
"He knows... He knew! He always knew!"
"Calm do-" Shining orders, but is interrupted when you shout,
"Calm? CALM?! That old coot dragged me out of Appleloosa for... for... WHAT?! He knew what was going on and he didn't-"
*GONG*
You're ranting is stopped by a mental gonging.
Deal with the time walker later for I agree with Cadenza's mistress's suggestion. The threat is nigh, and you already tried stopping it on your own. We need a plan. Selena chimes in.
You shake off that mental shock as put away the Doctor's Notebook and say,
"You're right, we need a plan."
Shining is about to reply when you all notice that the projection of Flag Burner is looks around in (what you guess is) a hardened stare from beneath his faceless hood before he says,
"Now that you all have had sufficient time to blink and make sure that this is indeed actually happening and not a side-effect of too much eggnog, I shall now commence with my message to the world!"
“Oh no,” you say as you watch the projection.
“I have come to free you from the oppression of a False Goddess, to lead you into the light, and away from the darkness of her shadow...”
“OK, see? Right there, I don’t talk like that. Do I?”
“Well...” Flash and Shining say.
“I am not a monster my little ponies, but a savior. A savior with a gift for you all. That gift is freedom; freedom from the oppression of forced Harmony, freedom from the hypocrisy of it all. And so, I hope you all remember this Holiday Season as the first stepping stone towards a new world order...”
“This guy is nuts.” you hear Flash mutter.
“And that first step, will begin with him…”
Flag Burner steps aside and two of his hooded minions drag an older, battered, and bruised-looking stallion to the front so he's the center of the projection.
“Tell the people of this city your name” Flag says.
“I... I am Iron Shield... Captain of the Fillydelphian Guard." he says weakly.
“He’s alive?” you ask in confusion.
“That explains why there was no body found in the wreckage...” Shining says.
“And why are you here?” Flag continues.
“Because... because I have failed this city...” he says with tears (you can't tell if it's from guilt or pain) in his eyes.
“And why is that?” asks Flag in his monotone tone.
“I... I took bribes... I let things slide... I destroyed and planted evidence... I betrayed the law... Oh please, I know I wasn't very good, but please... think of my family. Please spare me.” He begs in pain.
“I am thinking of your family Shield... or more specifically, your unwanted son... the one born to your mistress.”
You hear a lot of gasps at that exclamation and Shield puts his head down in shame before Flag continues,
“His mother died when he was young... had to go to a cheap back-alley surgeon because you wouldn't even provide a few bits for a decent doctor, but he was a tough boy and he endured. He came to me you know, a scrawny looking colt who had to beg on the streets to make ends meet... he told me he would make his father proud one day.”
Shield begins to cry.
“Such a sweet young colt... until he was hit by a runaway carriage and died of his injuries. You weren't even at his funeral. Apparently you were preoccupied with a private bribe party for you being held by the biggest racketeers of South side.”
“Yeesh.” You says aloud as you see Shield bawling.
“I’m Sorry...” Shield mutters.
“I know you are,” Flag says as he puts a hoof on his shoulder.
“But change requires sacrifice, and you will be the first of many” he continues.
Flag suddenly grabs the stallion's head and snaps his neck with one quick motion, killing him.
“Holy Buck!” you scream and you hear many others screaming across the city and Shining and Flash look unnerved at what they've just witnessed.
“That is but a taste of the evil we will uproot tonight. Shining Armor, I know you are watching... you are a weapon of the Tyrant... yet you are a noble soul. I ask you to join our cause... or join Shield's fate. I also have a bomb in the stadium set to blow. If you have the courage, come to me... We’ll have a nice little talk...You have 30 minutes... Merry Hearth's Warming Eve everypony...”
With that the Projection stops and now you are extremely angry,
“Someone died in my name... You are dead Flag...” you growl to yourself.
Now thoroughly convinced, Shining goes out of the room and says to the nearest Fillydelphian guards.
“Get every guard to the Stadium, we have to evacuate it immediately!”
“Every guard sir?”
EVERYPONY!!!!” Shining yells in anger.
“Sir Yes Sir!” the guards salute before running out.
Shining then turns to another pegasus guard and orders,
“We need a bomb disposal team on standby and at the ready stat!”
“Sir!” the guard salutes before flying off.
Flash comes up to Shining and asks,
“Sir, I thought we didn't know who to trust?”
“Whether they’re stained or not is beside the point, we only have 30 minutes!” he exclaims.
After that, Shining starts shouting out orders to all the guards in the area, and soon the building is buzzing with frenetic activity. Unfortunately, you suddenly get a familiar feeling that is very unwelcome at the moment. Coughing in embarrassment, you activate the RCV as you yell...
"HOLD IT!" you yell as loud as you can. Shining stops to look at you with a disgruntled face.
"What is it?", he says with agitation in his voice. You smile and say with most politest voice you can conjure.
"I need to pee, like badly! I haven't gone in hours!"
"Can't that wait for AFTER we deal with the potential massacre?!" proclaimed Flash with as much annoyance in his voice as his captain.
You really are an idiot...
"Well excuse me for have to hold it all day! Today hasn't left me with many times to use the toilet" you reply to the duo.
"OK! Enough! Just take him the bathroom we can come up with a plan on the way to bathroom!" yelled Shining with a face that said "I ain't have none of this shit today"
"HOLD IT!"
Every guard in the floor turns towards you and Shining says with an annoyed/disgruntled look on his face and agitation in his voice,
"What is it?"
You smile and say with politest voice you can conjure,
"I need to pee, like badly! I haven't gone in hours!"
"Can't that wait for AFTER we deal with the potential massacre?!" Shining proclaims in annoyance as the other guards scowl at you.
You really are an idiot...
"Well excuse me for have to hold it all day! Today hasn't left me with many times to use the toilet" you reply.
"OK! Enough! Lieutenant, just take him the bathroom so we can come up with a plan in peace!" yelled Shining with a face that said 'I ain't have none of this horeseapples today'
You nod your head in thanks as Flash leads to a conveniently placed bathroom next to your interrogation room. As you enter and begin to relive yourself, you hear a bunch of muffled yells coming from the other side of the bathroom. You quickly wash your hooves and walk out and see both Flash and Shining directing guards to stations around the area. As this is going on, you can't help but feel that things are doing fine and say,
“Alright, glad that things are running smoothly, now you stay here and let me handle thi...”
All of a sudden, you are lifted and slammed up against the wall by Shining’s magic as Flash and several other guards put spears in your face.
“Just because we're dealing with a crisis, it doesn't mean I'm going to let you free.” Shining growls.
“What?” you yell, “Oh come on! You need my help to stop this guy!”
“I don’t need your kind of help, this is a matter for the guards to handle, not you.”
“I am literally one of the most powerful fighters in the freaking land! And this guy is killing in my name, I think it’s pretty much my business too!” you shout.
Flash pokes the spear into your cheek a bit,
“I heard you mumbling to yourself, we are not going to allow you to kill this Flag Burner!”
*snap*
Your eyes glow orange at that,
“HE... KILLED... A... GUARD!!!” you shout as your voice throws them back a few steps, “A Stallion with a family! He’s going to kill more, including you! And I will make him pay!” you growl.
Shining squints his eyes at you,
“That’s not for you to decide Offender! There are laws that must be followed. We will take him alive if possible so that he can face justice... I will bring him down, not you!”
“Justice?! I AM JUSTICE!!!” you scream in exasperation, “YOU OWE ME ARMOR!!! I’m the one who kept Cadance alive, unless you've forgotten that too!”
He scowls at that,
“Cadance has told me that... said that you are just 'one big misunderstood kindly soul'... but even if that is the case, I’m not just going to allow you run off and kill a stallion. Every time you get involved anywhere, mass amounts of destruction occurs.”
“If I don’t get involved, a lot more will die! You. Will. DIE! Don’t you understand that!” you yell.
“I can take care of myself, besides, you said it yourself, you've never taken a life before... if you do this now, no past kindness nor any so called good deeds will make up for it... you are staying here, whether in chains or not is up to you...”
You take an angry breath,
“Yeah?” you ask as you take a breath, “Well Buck You Too! FUS RO DAH!"
Your shout of power blasts everypony in the area through cubicle walls, glass panes, and even out the occasional window and Shining is knocked out when he slams into the armor room,
“Sorry boys, this is for your own goo-”*whack*
You are interrupted when Flash recovers first, dashes at you, and to whacks you upside the head with his spear. You slowly turn your glowing eye at him angrily as he probably left a welt.
“That should have knocked you out!” he exclaims.
“I’m Lady Luck's punching bag,” Flash tries to hit you again, but you grab his spear with a hoof and hold it in place, “I'm used to taking her hits. SHORYUKEN!”
You hit Flash with a rising uppercut that makes the pegasus slam against the ceiling before roughly landing on the ground where a cubicle wall falls on and pins him. You get in Flash’s face as you retrieve the Inventory and say,
“Now you be a good soldier and watch after your Captain, I have a maniac to stop.”
With that you walk over to the window before Flash calls back.
“You don’t want to do this!” he yells.
“I’m pretty sure I do.” you growl as you continue walking, not even turning around.
“Taking another's life will change you, and not for the better! Please don't!” he pleads.
You stop before the window as you remember a motto from when you were a drone under your former Queen and say it grimly,
“Eye for an eye, fang for a fang, blood for blood, Revenge solves everything...”
*shatter*
You jump out the window and run towards the stadium through the crowds of panicking ponies.
Bugze... your thoughts begin to darken...
“I learned from the best.” you say vindictively.
I concur that this Stallion deserves death but...
“What?!” you angrily say as you jump over a downed HWE tree.
I don't know, it's just that you finally walking this path I originally wanted, it just seems... wrong somehow.
You growl aloud and say,
“Right or wrong doesn't matter anymore, that psycho is going to get his!”
I... as you wish, you hear her say in hesitation, I will stand by you no matter what. I just hope Nightshade will understand... she adds in, halting your dark thoughts for a moment.
“I... She... GRAGH! Fine! Flag is still going to bleed though!” you tell her.
That is fine with me... she says a bit more cheerfully.
You can’t believe it’s come to the point where she (of all ponies) is calming you down. She’s come a long way. You smile slightly at that fact before your face hardens as you continue to run towards the stadium, your cloak flying in the wind behind you. As you get closer to the stadium, you spot out of the corner of your eye...
An ally with a large amount of crows.
"What the..."
Imbecile! We've got a wannabe messiah to stop and here you are hesit- What is a murder of crows doing in Fillydelphia? Especially one this size in the snow? I haven't seen any since our arrival... Selena comments.
Wait! What did you call them?
A murder of crows. That is the correct term for a group of crows. Have you not heard that term before?
You're about to respond when you spot a bottle in the middle of the murder. You go into the alley and make your way through the birds to see a bottle that looks like this and you see a label that reads,
"MURDER Of CROWS: Command a murder of needling beaks to swarm your enemies.* Now in licorice flavor!"
―Fink Manufacturing advertisement
*Disclaimer: Only compatible with plasmid glove. Only works when plasmid glove is on AND crows are within a mile radius. Not responsible for damage caused by bird poop.
"Ooooo, licorice!*
Focus! Quite frankly, I'm beginning to lose track of how many abilities, powers, spells, and skills you have at this point... Selena comments.
"This could be useful for crowd control or distractions..."
You're about to drink the bottle when you see...
Along the way, you see looters stealing stuff, so you freeze them and save some innocent ponies from being robbed.
Psycho Crusher through the door way into a tiny mob of looters and Falcon Punch the biggest one through a storefront window causing the others to flee.
You notice one of the games that one of the looters dropped and the title catches your eye; Hatred.
"Wait a minute... isn't that the game that was considered so violent that it was banned by Celestia? AWESOME!!! This will be the perfect gift for Nightshade!"
With that, you quickly pocket the game and move on..
"Hatred" video game added to Inventory
A group of looters smashing up a department store and terrorizing/mugging the ponies inside.
"Aw hay no!" you declare as you put the bottle away ("Murder of Crows vigor" added to Inventory), take out the Power Glove, and run towards the department store.
"PSYCHO CRUSHER!" you call out as you spin-smash through the doorway and knock the looters everywhere like a bowling ball. A few looters still standing brandish their clubs with intent to charge you when you quickly grab some film reels from The Inventory and throw them like frisbees, knocking one out and forcing the others to scatter. A few of the downed ones charge at you...
"Would you kindly FREEZE!"
Before you cover the floor in ice causing them to slip and slide towards you, but you step out of the way allowing them to all slam into a janitor's closet. You rush in and jam the door with a "Animals, Nature, and You" book to lock them in.
*WHAM*
When the biggest looter (a dimwitted-looking earth pony) knocks you into a HWE display that consists of a stack of empty presents. As he charges you again, a "Psychology of Dreams" book shoots out of the fallen stack and hits the stallion in the eye, stunning them as he grabs his eye in pain.
"FALCON PUNCH!"
Your orange flame-covered hoof shoots out of the downed stack and slams into the stallion, sending him crashing through the store window *klonk* and knocking him out on the pole.
Seeing their biggest gun down, the other looters tuck tail and flee. As you watch the civilians leave, you notice one of the games that one of the looters dropped and the title catches your eye; Hatred.
"Wait a minute... isn't that the game that was considered so violent that it was banned by Celestia? AWESOME!!! This will be the perfect gift for Nightshade!"
Added to Inventory:
"Hatred video game"
"Murder of Crows vigor bottle"
Lost
"Animals, Nature, and You" book
"Seikrei" anime serial reels
"Psychology of Dreams" book
After that, you run towards the Hoffball Stadium, but before you can get there, a figure steps out of an alley and in your path...
After stopping the looters, you sprint on the stadium. The Doctor steps out of an alley on your way.
"I know you got my message."
You snarl and ignore him, running on as fast as you can.
The Tardis appears ahead of you, and the Doctor appears again.
"Do you really have so little faith in those two guards?"
"The guards? No. It's YOU!" You stop nose-to-nose with him. "You have five seconds. What is the Nightmare?"
"Walk away, Bugze."
You stop yourself from Falcon Punching him and run on.
"Whoa there! I know you got my message." the Doctor says.
You snarl and ignore him, running on as fast as you can. *wham* when you run right into the TARDIS.
As you rub your head in pain, Doctor steps out of the TARDIS and sternly says,
"Oi! Didn't you get my message!"
"Go save a planet noling has heard of, I got business in that stadium!" you bitterly retort.
"Do you really have so little faith in the guards?!"
"The guards? I meant YOU! Know would you kindly GET THE BUCK OUT OF MY WAY!"
With that, you use the Telekinesis plasmid to grab the Time Lord and throw him back into the TARDIS and cause it to phase away when his body slams into the controls, but you just keep running.
When you reach the stadium you see...
A small army of Royal Guards surrounding it.
“Huh, Armor wasn't kidding when he said everyling.” you comment
“There he is!” someone shouts.
“Huh?” you say in confusion.
“There’s that murderer!”
“No it’s a false one, kill him and get the bounty!”
You then see that almost everypony in the area is looking at you. You even see a bunch of newsponies with cameras.
“Oh Buck Me! Flag Burner, you are so going to pay for this...” you mutter.
"Time to pay for your crimes Offender!"
"Put it on my tab!", you yell as you pull out your "Armored Shell tonic" ("Physical and Magical Damage is reduced by 50%") and down it.
It actually tastes pretty good, like citrus soda, but then you start feeling your bones and skin hardening and your skin starts to briefly glow white. You do everything you can to keep on your feet as you sway and grit your teeth to suppress cries of pain. Most of the ponies look at you stunned, but one Pegasus Royal Guard charges at you with intent to skewer you with his spear-
*crack*
But fortunately, his spear was coming at you at an angle and your tonic is taking effect, causing the spear to break. As you catch your breath, the stunned Pegasus says,
"W-What sorcery is this?!"
“Just took some points in Damage reduction.” you say cryptically before you smash the empty tonic bottle over his head, stunning him, before hitting the Pegasus with a jumping headbutt that knocks him out cold (it still hurts you, but not as much as it normally would).
"So..." you say as you shake your head, "Who's next?"
The guards harden their expressions and prepare to charge you.
Buck! I NEED to get inside before it’s too late... *snap* Guess I better clean some clocks....
Your eyes glow orange and Nightmare Cloak particles fly off your body as you smile evilly and yell in the Royal Canterlot Voice,
"WELL BRING IT ON YOU COWARDS! WHO'S GONNA COME UP AND GET THEIR BUTTS KICKED FIRST! CAUSE I HAVE A IDIOT WHO'S BUTT NEEDS KICKING! WE'RE ON EASTERN PAIN TIME AND IT'S DAN O'CLOCK- Wait... Dang it wrong intro! Well, it is Hearth's Warming Eve so I'm gonna Deck the halls with YOUR STUPID BODIES!!!"
What do you do?
I'm So glad I stayed up for this yay
"Come on!!! A foal can hit more hard, show me what you can do!" Shout Bugzee
As he say that someone throw a jar of a strange yellow liquid transforming the hooded offender in the yellow offender. As Bugzee smell it.
"Agggh!!! Jarate!!! Who the hell throw me Jarate?" Shout Bugzee confused but the ponies don't answer as they begin to circle Bugzee and hit him
"Aich, ouch, ay!" Say Bugzee as he is hit by the ponies around
Just then as he is hit, Bugzee have a idea
"Look!!! Is Princess Celestia kissing Princess Cadence in the mouth!!" Shout Bugzee
The ponies begin to look and Bugzee take the confusion to escape, it's then that he hid himself in a trash can.
"Aggh... I hate Jarate... It's going to be hard to clean this" Mutter Bugzee as he look around
"It's a lie, look for him!! he escaped" Say one pony to the ponies that search for Celestia
"Look under cardboard boxes, if he like to copy the offender, he could try that" Say another pony
The ponies begin to search and Bugzee meanwhile use the trash can to try to enter hidden inside like with the cardboard box when suddenly something in the sky surprise him.
A cyan pegasus with a rainbow mane pass the sky
"Crap... If she is here, the others members of the evil six will be also here... What are they doing here?" Mutter Bugzee
"Are you seriously asking? After the news of the hooded offender appearing? You know they are the lackeys of Celestia..." Groan Selena in your head
"Well... Lackeys is a little hard..." Comment Bugzee
"Elements!!! Go to a dangerous and dark forest to fight my sister because she is too scary!!! Elements!!! take a crazy god for me, that could torture all of you very easy!!! Elements, fight a stupid dragon that is resting without disturbing and can eat all of you or burn you because my pro guards that have as captain unicorn that could make a shield the size of Canterlot are too busy doing nothing!! Elements!! fight a strange pony hidden under a hoof that I or my sister or maybe the captain of the guard could defeat easy but we are too busy to stop a massive destruction!! Elements!!! Attack someone that just save our ass in the gala now that he is too weak!! Elements open my jar of pickles because it's too hard for princesses to do it!!" Say Selena imitating Celestia
"Okay... The last one is not true" Say Bugzee
"Are you sure? " Ask Selena
"Well..." Bugzee begin to think
........
At some moment in the future as he fight with Flag Burner, Offender Vs Offender, Fluttershy appear with a army of member of the horde, that begin to fight the other members of the group of Flag Burner.
As he look to Flag Burner and the members of the horde, fighting between them, Bugzee is shocked.
"What are I doing? " Muttered Bugzee
"Wait... What?" Ask Selena
"this... is wrong... ponies fighting ponies, the members of the horde fighting between themselves... Why? Because they are not sure..." Ask Bugze to himself as Flag Burner hit him and throw him, landing in the middle of the battle as he can see Fluttershy with angry eyes fighting Coco that is also angry
"The only monster here is me... How could I transformed those two cute and good mares in that? The Doctor was right, this was not my battle... If there is a monster, is not Flag Burner, but me... If I listened to the Doctor this could not happened" Comment Bugzee to himself
Is then that he decide to do something, inhaling breath
"STOOOOOOOP" Shout Bugzee in Royal Canterlot Voice, as they look to him
"I... Surrender... Please, stop this nonsense fight, Flag Burner I surrender and give to you the title of Hooded Offender, just don't punish the member of the horde for fighting between them" Say Bugzee as he look down
--------------
The thing is that I really don't remember too much Christhmas Specials, so I don't answer because that.
I'm Wondering whether bugze would use the big ball attack that he was going to use in the first story episode 44 against flag burner in the second part of this fight. Since bugze's nightmare cloak is a bit like naruto as seen inthe first story episode 68 where hiscloak issomewhat like naruto when he wasin his third tail form , so the death of iron shield and probably the provoking from flag burner to cause bugze to have four tails and dark thought start to corupt his mind and he will transform into a fox-like demon but with nightmare moon's armour on it. I hope this helps i'm not so great at this kind of things and this is my rough idea of what bugze would transform into as he would be the nightmare that is be warned about as he would the the NIGHTMARE that is coming i guess
Hmmm... Going to need the right kind of finishing move to deal with Flag Burner.
With Bugze in Nightmare Offender form, we'll need something suitably epic enough that everypony/ling/one sees it.
Maybe to pull away from Bugze actually killing, an attack that sends his target through space and time...
Cue dramatic heroic theme!
NightMareOffender: Our Turn! Flag Burner! Now you'll feel what it's like to be Lady Luck's play thing! The good, the bad, and the ugly!
Flag: WHAT?! You couldn't kill a fly! You won't kill me!
N.O.: HisAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAtsu!!!!
*N.O. pins Flag Burner on tail spikes in the air.*
*Psycho Crusher + Plasmid Glove + Nightmare Hood powers = ... Giga Drill Breaker knockoff?*
N.O.: Psycho..... Dimensional! RIIIIFT! SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!!!!!!!!
*Nightmare Offender punches Flag Burner so hard it smashes him through space and time, dumping him off near some unspeakable horror... *
Voice: Oh look! A horsie!
FB: W-What?
Voice: I'm going to hug him and love him and SQUEEZE all the life out of him!
FB: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
*Rift closes*
I don't know about you, but I just LOVE writing fight scenes. Anyways, the worst christmas special? That one Star Wars Christmas Special (also found in Nostalgia Critics). It sends me shudders.
(Revisions Finished Post Kershey475)
_________________________________________
Bugze reached within himself and summoned his KI. "Raaauugh!" His eyes glowed an intense orange, and, if observant enough, a faint glow can be seen surrounding him mystifyingly. Some of them swore they felt their bodies failed on them for a split second.
All of the guards breathed unsteadily at the spectacle and one of them asked, "Are you sure he's the fake?"
"W-well, yeah!" another replied indigently. "I mean, it's only a 1k bounty; How hard could it be? He only has a hard head!" A blow from the Offender, and a single 200-pound stallion sailed across their heads, screaming like a girl. "...and super strength." The guards tried to overpower Bugze by dog-piling him, but was only met with some crowd control (Fus Ro Dah/"You Shall Not Pass!" Slam"), and went flying. "...and a Death Shout!" The guard at this point was definitely scared as the halls was literally, decked with bodies and stained in soldier sweat and grime and blood. Well, not really blood, just some dude's hayburger along with the ketchup—
Dont Get distracted!
"Wuh?" An arrow whizzed by his head. "...Oh, big mistake!" Killing intent intensifies.
Some who were already willfully weakened by the Offender's KI did the smart thing and secretly kept themselves at the back. Some of the more seasoned and disciplined and sturdy could only look in disbelief as their brethren wilted at his gaze..
Pegasi came in for a decisive strike, thinking that the Offender would be at least winded by such a powerful attack. Of course, they were wrong. One unfortunate pegasus earned himself a No Shadow Kick to the face, get used as a stepping stone to come into range for an aerial Falcon Punch on another one of his flock members. A particularly fast pegasus slammed into him immediately afterwards, but for being less hardy, the assailant only hurt himself and had the both of them go falling. Barely fazed, Bugze spun around in mid air in attempt to land on top of the pegasus. Instead, they BOTH landed on the ground first. Still, plus one to durability, so Bugze remained conscious.
"Ow."
Dodge!
He instantly parkour rolled across the ground to just barely dodge a fireball spell. And then skittered, quickly hopped, and leaped off a wall to avoid a few more. He silently thanked the Apples and Selena as he glanced at the smoke and cinders before glaring at a group of Unicorns, whose horns were at the ready.
"This is far as you'll go! Surrender now, and you'll won't have to deal with our lethal force!" a mare ordered.
"The mages are here! They'll definitely turn this around!" Bugze overheard. The mages, huh? Well, let's see if these hotshots could handle this!
"Oh? Well, would you kindly CHILL OUT!" The guards winced at the thud of the Power Glove, and it also surprised even Bugze and Selena. Instead of a floor of ice, a focused SHOCKWAVE of ice went straight to the mage.
Surprised she lobbed fireballs at it which explosively expelled dense steam across the area. Like a Fog that lingered, it blinded everyone.
"Make a circle! He could be anywhere now," the mare said.
There's a funny thing that applies to everyone: No one looks up. Bugze came from the sky like an Eagle-Spy coming in for the epic trick stab! The last thing she saw was his deadly orange eyes in the fog, visciously going in for the deadly swipe before there was a flash of teleportation. Heck, even his crazy manuever cleared away the steam. A mage teleported his comrades slightly dazed away from danger, who briefly thanked him for the save and went in formation with the rest of the guard, although thoroughly demoralized.
Bugze, not caring for fancy tactics, ran and Psycho Crushed into the center of mass, but a unicorn shield put that to a stop. Another casted an ice spell, and froze his hooves to the floor. A mass of ground assault charged with spears pointed, and attempted to swallow him with cold steel. Out played with his own move? No thanks!
The Hooded Offender ducked his head and crouched, allowing the spears to hit his back at an angle, and good weaponry got welded. He worked to get off the ice as the guards pulled away, only for the unicorns to reinforce the ice. So, he decided that two can play at that game.
"Would you kindly CHILL OUT!" he roared. In reaction to ice that's already there, his own ice erupted from his hooves and surrounded him in a cocoon of cold, fragile crystal. Amazingly enough, there was a pause in the intense fight. It was in this pause that the guard noticed the news ponies taking pictures and taking notes at the speed of light, well, when they're not busy gawking or soiling the ground.
"Did-did he just froze himself?" a bystander breathed.
"Well that's just stupid!"
"No, seriously, are we sure he is fake?!"
Thankfully, it's hollow. "Fus Ro Dah!" And it shattered, the shards violently rocket-launched into those near it. It wasn't lethal, but chilly and unpleasant, like the deathly end of a spear. The formation was sent into chaos.
Broken free, the offender kicked and screamed, sending more into a frenzy. He was then hit with water. He could only turn to the mare with a compromising trail of water leading towards her. "You're kidding? You're kidding, right?" he said.
Next to the mare, another unicorn lit up his horn, electric sparks emiting. "No," he said smugly. Oh Buck. It was too late. Or was it too fast? The unicorn sent a lightning spell to the trail of water and electrocuted the poor bug, who made an awkwardly and amusing dance while the watts fried him. And to add insult to injury, a pletherol of magical lasers and fireballs get lobbed into him. His everything exploded. "And... That 1k is now ours~!" the unicorn said cheekily.
"Oh that's definitely MORE than 1k. He's more trouble than he's actually worth," one of the unicorns said.
The unicorns smirked as the guards cheered. But when smoke cleared, they gasped to see the Offender still standing! Sort of. There's still electricity coursing through him.
"...Lady of Ouch."
Eyes nearly popped out as some of the guard said in unison "You've got to be kidding me!"
The fireball unicorn cried, "I don't understand, we gave everything we've got!"
Huffing and Puffing, he growled, "No. I'm fire proof (which I forgotten). I'll be honest, that really, really hurt, and probably more if I weren't fire resistant. And all of that for a measely 1K bounty? I'd give you an A plus for the excessive amount of effort you've put into it, but that's besides the point..." *snap* He eyes glowed much, much brighter. "Were you too daft to follow your Captains orders to evacuate everyone from the stadium?! Get out of my way AND DO YOUR BUCKING JOBS!!!"
Bugze then spammed Captain Falcon's signature move, making his way to the entrance of the stadium.
"—Punch! Falcon Punch! Falco— Punch! Falcon Pun—! Punch!"
At the entrance, a wall of desperate guards body blocked it, with spears out and unicorns powering one shield. The Nightmare Cloak fully emerged, and then appeared the first tail.
"Nightmare Falcon Punch!"
However, his attack was stopped yet again by a second layer magic shielding. The Nightmare Offender went flatter than a pancake by the suddenly extreme resistance. Its coloration with a distinctly familiar pink.
"Hooded Offener!" yelled the familiar voice of Shining Armor. "Get your flank back here NOW!"
"Ugh!" Bugze groaned, either in backlash of inertia or in annoyance even he couldn't tell. "I don't have time for this!" So, he did the next best thing: Parkour and scale up the Stadium wall. A second tail took form, and used both tails to catapult himself across the wall. "Lady Luck, don't ruin this for me!"
Of course, he was met with all manners of magical attacks, arrows and scunt-ish pegasi. Reaching atop, he was faced with the pointy ends of a crossbow (and a few more ) held by hooded ponies. "Your ascent ends here, Fake Offender."
"Haha, yeah, no."
As you and the guards surrounding the stadium face off against each other, the head unicorn on the scene suddenly says,
"What are you waiting for? It's Hearth's Warming Eve. Take him to church!"
On cue, the Royal Guard charges in at you and as you draw the staff from the Inventory you think,
Why didn't I think of that line?
5442449
Grey Rebl's comment with modifications as he's making Bugze too OP (even though DWC told us NOT to Mary Sue Bugze...)
Also, set yourself on fire with either Incinerate! plasmid or a Molotov cocktail (remember, your coat is fireproof so you can run around on fire without burning yourself)
Violently grab the face of the unicorn that electrocuted you and fry his brain with a point-blank face-grabbing "Would you kindly EAT LIGHTNING!" (nonlethal of course, but that mage is gonna be half-brain-dead for a few weeks...)
After you have gotten past the guards, enter the stadium where the "Hooded Offender" (actually Flag Burner disguised as you) and his followers (all wearing black hooded robes) are. The Royal Guard spill into the stadium after you resulting in a massive brawl between the Royal Guards and the rogue Horde.
Use Forcefield and dodge to navigate the stadium brawl.
Spike a pony (either Royal Guard or Horde) headfirst into the ground with a cry of "TOUCHDOWN!"
As the melee in the hoofball stadium rages around you, you spot the bomb. You rush towards it only to get dogpiled by alot of Guards and Horde. In your rage, you blast away the ponies in a yell of energy leaving you there with the Nightmare Cloak formed around you and one Nightmare Tail waving around.
Use a massive Nightmare Cloak-fueled FUS RO DAH to blast everypony (Guard and Horde) out of the stadium and into the city. Use Nightmare Tail to launch yourself like a rocket and land in the Center City area where everypony as recovered from the "Fus ro dah" and is now continuing fighting in the streets.
(NOTE: HIVE MIND; THIS IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY FOR A MASSIVE THREE-WAY BRAWL (Royal Guard vs Flag Burner's Horde vs You) IN AN URBAN ENVIRONMENT SO YOU CAN DO THINGS LIKE THROW CARRIAGES, BLOW UP STORES, AND SEND PONIES CRASHING THROUGH WINDOWS!!!)
Fight gets even more chaotic in the city as:
-You start machine-gun-casting Stun Spells
-Looters are throwing Molotov Cocktails into stores causing explosions
-Slam down your staff to clear out groups of fighters
-Flash single-hoofedly takes down a squad of Horde members to help some civilains escape.
-Shining arrives on the scene with his main priority being evacuating non-combatants.
-Pegasus fight in the skies and tackle/lightning each other through billboards and windows
-You see two Horde members and two Royal Guards taking a snack break from the fighting to eat some Filly cheeseshroom hoagies... then continue fighting when the bill arrives.
You hear music and someling say; "Fire up loud, Another round of shots..."
You look up to see a particularly crazed/stupid pony on a roof about to perform a... groindrop (?) in slowmotion as he yells out
"TURN DOWN FOR WHAT!!!"
Before smashing through the floors of the building causing everypony fighting in the floors of that building to all collapse in a pile on the ground floor
Potion Sash
-2 Stink bombs
-2 Fuse Bombs
-4 Molotov Cocktails
-4 Transformation potions
-4 Healing Potions
During the fight, at some point you realize maybe it wasn’t the smartest idea to challenge EVERY SINGLE GUARD IN THE CITY TO A HOOF FIGHT. And besides, you don’t know who is clean and who isn’t during your rampage and you are wasting valuable time you can use to fight Flag.
“Alright, enough of this, everyling GO THE BUCK TO SLEEP!” you yell as you raise the Luna Plushie.
The nearest guard just looks at you in confusion.
“What are you doing?” he asks.
“Huh?” you say confused.
“We’re in the middle of a battle! Now’s not the time for dolls!”
“Bu…” you look around and no one is sleepy looking.
“Yeah,” chimes in another guard, “besides, most of us don’t have our plushies with us at the moment, so you’ll just have to wait. I’ll bring my Andrea plushie from my little human.”
You and the other guards look at this stallion strangely as he chuckles nervously and shrinks under their gaze.
“Freaking Homies, they’re everywhere.”
You then look to your plush in confusion.
“I don’t understand! Why isn’t this working! It always works.”
“Perhaps you have broken it with how much usage you have done,” Selena guesses.
“NO that can’t be it, hold on.” You start turning the Luna Plushie around until you read the tag sticking out of her foot. Why had you never read it before? It’s a tag on a plushie, who ever reads those?
It reads, “Bugze, use this adorable Plushie to peacefully knock out your foes, but use it sparingly, it only works once every usage before needing a full day to recharge. Good luck, Allonsy, The Doctor”
“OH Buck!” you shout as you remember you just used it on Coco a little while ago.
What you don’t realize is that the guards have finished eyeing the plushie owning stallion and all jump on you in a dog pile.
“Double Buck!” you shout.
Even with the Damage reduction, this hurts you. Also, you can’t breathe with that many bodies covering you.
“Must…get…to…Flag…” you mutter as you start to lose consciousness, when all of a sudden a few of the guards are blasted off of you, giving you the chance to toss the rest off with your tails.
You take a moment to catch your breath, and as you do another stallion charges right at you with a sword from behind as Selena shouts a warning, but a blast of green magic throws him away from you.
“What in the…” you say as you look to the source and see a pony mare with two stallions who is looking at you intently.
“Who…” you begin to ask before you hear something very familiar.
“Chhhhhkkkkkkkkkcchhkkkkkchkkk”
You gasp in surprise at the familiar sound as you see their eyes turn completely blue.
"Stop the Madstallion 117," you gasp at the usage of your old drone number, "we will contact you when it's safe."
They then decloak, revealing their true Changeling bodies.
"Changelings!" shouts many guards.
"Get them!"
"Kill them!"
They then fly off down the streets as most of the guards chase after them.
“Ch-ch-changelings! Here? Now? But…where have they been?”
“Ask questions later! You now have an opening” shouts your friend upstairs.
With everyling running after them your path is mostly clear, so you decide to put your old brethren to the back of your mind as you charge through the downed guards and into the stadium.
Running through the hallways towards the field, you knock out a few ponies in Horde cloaks by tossing them into walls with your telekinesis.
As you walk onto the field, you see countless scared ponies in the stand, and more of the Horde standing in the middle,
“Offender! I knew I heard a ruckus outside. Should've guessed it was your doing. Guess Coco needs a talking to.”
“She wasn’t that hard to go through!” you growl at him.
“Still, she does need to be punished for her weakness.”
“Don’t you dare,” you threaten.
“What? Is a Chineighse fishing hat too much?”
“I…huh?” you sputter.
I don’t hurt my own, in case you’ve forgotten… unlike some” he says with a sneer towards the corpse of Iron Shield.
“Although I was highly wishing to speak to Captain Armor, this is a nice surprise. Have you Changed your mind?!” he asks.
“No Flag, no one else is going to die tonight…” your eyes glow orange “Except maybe for you.”
You can tell he is smirking.
“You’re welcome to try sir…but just so you know, you strike us now, you make yourself our enemy.”
"You don't scare me, I just mopped the floor with a bunch of guards, what are you gonna do."
"Oh I don't know, unleash my trap maybe?"
"Bullspit! You've only got four...goons...left?"
You look around and see all of the "Scared" ponies put on cloaks and start walking towards the field.
"Oh....well..." you start, when all of a sudden, the gates behind you blow apart and the guards rush in, a few of them are scorched, but it seems they've forgotten the changelings.
Shouts of
"For the Horde"
and
"Die Imperial Scum!"
roar out as Flag just looks at you, and you just know he's smirking.
He then turns around and starts walking away.
"Where are you going?"
"Got places to be, ponies to meet. I still need to have my chat with Shining Armor after all."
He and his four Elite members then disappear amongst the many cloaks.
You realize you only have only a few minutes left before the bombs go off, and you are completely surrounded by both sides. Knowing that everyone wants to hurt you, you don't feel guilty for what you are about to do.
"Selena?"
"Yes?"
"This is going to hurt."
You then take in the biggest gulp of air you've ever had, as you unleash your ultimate form and give the mightiest
FUS ROH DAH straight down at your feet, causing a massive wave of energy that lifts everyone up and out of the stadium and flying into the sky towards down town.
Luckily, in situations of death by falling, most Guards and Horde members either used their unicorn magic, or flying abilities to make sure no one died. Although you did end up smashing into a building.
You feel completely drained from that. Not easy lifting up hundreds of ponies with only your voice, so your cloak wavers as you groggily walk downstairs.
You are then tackled by a few pegasus guards who start beating you head, but they get blasted off you by some magic.
You look up and see your saviours...the Horde.
"There is the false offender, take him out as well!" shouts one.
"Oh COME ON!" you shout.
You run into the streets, jumping through a window in the process, and see a gigantic battle between the Guards and the Horde tearing up the block.
"You got your second wind back?" you ask your Waifu.
"I have no choice but to have it back!" she shouts.
Now there is a litteral brawl. You are fighting both horde members and guards , all of whom are trying to kill you as well.
You get blasted through some walls, and you throw quite a few through windows. At one point, you even pick up a taxi carriage, and, copying one of your favorite super heroes,
You smash it in half and wrap the wreckage around your tails to form gloves for your tails.
Also, during this fight, you realize both of these sides or going for the kill on the other. So continuously, you have to stop a fighting group from killing each other by knocking them out.
You tear up street lamps and start hitting both sides like baseballs, you tear up manhole covers and use them like frisbee weapons, and at some point, you pick up a carrot dog stand, take all the food inside it, before you go around, burning everyone with the grill part of it.
Despite all your efforts, the fight still rages on, so since you don't have the plushie option anymore, you decide for another mass knock out.
You break a few Fire Hydrants, flooding the street, you then stand on top of your Inventory and with a grimace, because this is probably gonna hurt you too
You shout.
"Would you all kindly have a SHOCKING revelation?!" and slam your glove down, sending out a wave of electricity, knocking everyone to their belly.
Luckily, the only shock you recieve is through your glove, which lights you up and throws you threw a Victoria's Secret shop.
*SPLURT* goes your nose as you groggily get up and see most of your foes down, and the others wobbiling about.
You then decide to take a minute to rest.
Before you see Flag Burner walking with his four Elites down the street as if nothing happened.
You get in front of him as fast as you can and point your hoof at him. He caused all this!
“Would you Kindly Burn!” You shout as you send a flame right at him, which is stopped when a wall of water comes right in front of him.
“Wha? But, magic can’t stop these…”
“Magic isn’t the answer to everything sir, there are other powers out there…”
You then see his four elites walk forth. One is manipulating water, one is causing rock columns to appear, and the others are manipulating fire and air.
“And Element Bending is quite the powerful field.”
You remember the last time you were up against an element bender, your own daughter no less.
“…Oh Buck…”
5442602 Eh, I suppose I should've added the Night Mare Cloak for some parts and minus the one hit K.O. and mid air stepping stone thing. What do you think?
5442679
Here are some suggested guidelines;
1. This fight is a multi-parter (2 parts at least)
2. Bugze needs to get INSIDE the stadium (where Flag Burner and rogue Horde is)
3. Feel free to add some stuff for fighting INSIDE the stadium (save the Nightmare Cloak and tails for here and NOT outside)
4. Add some stuff for the melee in the city as per/after this comment:
5442697 Woah! You're making me feel like an author here. Well, actually, every commentor here is basically a part-time co-author. Besides, I meant to ask about the Mary Sue thing.
5442748
The idea of the two Guardsponies talking while the brawl goes on around them is great, but just tone down Bugze's actions (for example, Bugze using "No Shadow Kick" to climb pegasus is a little much... for outside the stadium that is).
We're placing Bugze in the middle of a battle in a football stadium AND a battle/riot in what is basically Times Square. You can start going crazy in those areas (but not 3 tails... yet. )
5443630
Awesome, but the Mane 6 are confirmed to NOT be showing up in this arc due to the events of their episode
5442762 Ah, alright, I see. The fight isn't all that quite heated yet, so let the fires burn a little before we get cooking on the Coup De Grace. Got it. I'd like to see how the other commentators fare in this anyways. Speaking of whom, I'm cheering for you guys!
Worst christmas special is any special with singing rhymes in a new cartoon.
Worst Christmas Specials are all the Life Time Original Christmas Movies. EVERY SINGLE ONE!
''Do you even lift brah'' says a gaurd getting in your way and by the looks at the guard he is Built... no built was an understatement We was a walking power house
Try come up with an insult fast so he go home and cry to his mama
''Yo mama is a cow.''
''Why did you have to insult his mom?''
I paniced ok?
The guard looks confuzed ''Dude my mom is a cow how did you know?. Now i think about it i think that you said was meant as a insult Taste my hoof''
The hoof did taste nice a wee bit of mint but the pain that came afterwards was. sudden Bugze slapped the guard back...
''bro not cool bro not cool.'' he walked away... what a -Urrgh i dont want to say Screw it lets keep moving...
While you're busy fighting the host of guards (one of them has you in a headlock and is giving you a noogie) you don't notice a large group of shadowy figures appear atop the roofs of the surrounding buildings. One of them raises a bow with a canister of a white glowing liquid and smirks, the others follow suit as he draws back the bowstring, filling the syringe arrow with the volatile substance.
"Equestria will burn." he mutters and releases the shot, the others as well "FOR THE HORDE!"
The dozens of canister arrows explode on the ground, sending white flakes like burning snow everywhere. The guards around you scream in anguish as the burning flakes coat their bodies and get inside their lungs and eyes.
"It burns!" you yell "The buck is-"
"White phosphorus! Get out, get out now!
Looking around at the dying ponies you, you forego your own safety to stay behind and save them. "Would you all kindly stop burning! LIVE!" you turn every direction, blasting everypony you can see with your freeze power. Each second passes like hours as you watch them burn, desperately trying to save as many as you can, and it doesn't help that you're breathing in the flakes and gas as well, it's torture.
Finally, you throw your power glove into the air and unleash a wave of frost, dispersing the lingering burn flakes filling the air. Everyone around you is frozen solid, even on the inside, but that's better than horribly burning to death.
You angrily look to the rooftops to see that the phosphorus archers have vanished. "What kind of monster does that! Didn't any of these jerk-wads play Spec-ops: the line!?"
The way into the stadium is clear however, and you have a lot of tension to work out.
After you find Flag Burner you say "I Hope You're ready for my Tranquil Fury"
The Moon Rises in front of the sun and your body undergoes drastic changes
You say to Flag Burner and his followers "I don't know if I want to mop the floor with you separately or all at once, so we're going to do both." You and Selena take on separate bodies "This is going to make the Big Bang look like a burp" you say
Okay, anyway, future events aside, it's BRAWL time!
*Somewhere in the middle of the three-way brawl... No music yet*
You find yourself trashing the now panicked and scattered guards that get in your way. Of course, the rage has run away with you just a liiiiittle bit, and you're being a bit vicious with tossing them aside.
Suddenly, something body checks you into a wall with a rubble-filled explosion. When you emerge, you find Shining Armor has recovered and taken the field. And he doesn't look like he's in a talking mood anymore.
More hoard members attempt to hit the obvious guard stallion with WP, only for it to bounce off a shield he erects without an aside glance. Immediately, you attempt a Psycho crusher, only for Shining to pull some surprising competence out of his flank, and swats you down with a shield he whips around like a fly swatter.
In your head, Nimmy notes this, and gets almost giddy.
("I've been wanting to see what made him so special!")
Tapping some of your magic, Nimmy makes blood red letters and a deep voice echo above you.
FIGHT!
[Start music at 47 seconds]
Shining wastes no time in going on the offensive, the shield he's projecting only about as large as he is, but whipping around like a weapon in itself. You're forced to back away as it cleaves through the air, hissing as it clears a path. You retaliate with several super-powered punches and kicks, only to hear them clang uselessly as if striking metal. The thunderous impact sounds make your ears ring. In your irritation turned surprise, you realize that this is the same stallion that put up a city-sized shield, and he's now projecting that power to a cross section the tiniest fraction of the size. That thing will hurt no matter how it hits.
You attempt a few more creative moves, but come up short when Shining simply projects his specialty forward, intercepting your attacks with explosive force, then the shield winds back as you're left open, and you're 'cataclang'ed into another building, taking out the wall in the process.
("Whoa...") Nimmy comments in shock. ("I thought making him the Captain of the Guard was just politics...")
("That's sparkle butt's brother alright!") you mentally gasp from your rubble pile. ("I guess flipping on like a light switch runs in the family!")
Any further conversation is interrupted when a hoard member disguised as a guard, or maybe a corrupt guard pounces shining. The prince dives and rolls to avoid getting skewered by a spear, and then throws up his shield to deflect a wild swing. The hoard/guard puts up a pretty good impression of looking like he knows what he's doing, enough keep Shining from noticing another going for an attack from behind.
You explode out of the rubble with a Psycho crusher, slamming into the would-be ambusher with the force of... well, what IS comparable to a psycho crusher?
("Focus on the fight...")
You pound the living daylights out of your opponent with a few well placed kicks and a Shouryuken. Then suddenly, you experience a Newtype flash and feel the urge to duck, just in time to have a razor-edged section of shining's shield pass through the spot where your head had been.
"Hey!" you snap. "That was uncalled for!"
Your anger fueling your ability, you snap a flip over Shining's follow attempt to swat you with another shield, and half- NoShadow Kick, half- psycho crusher to close the distance before connecting a blow to his Withers, sending the prince stumbling back. But it turns out that he can take a blow a lot better than previous appearances would have it seem. That, or he's been working on that endurance training... Wink wink.
("Seriously?")
You don't give Nimmy's mental comment a second thought as you close in on Shining's lowered defenses. The two of you exchange several evenly matched blows and blocks before his horn flashes, and that blasted shield materializes, already in motion. You get double-clanged by it before the impact sends you down range... a ditch in your wake.
"This is getting annoying!" you growl as you jump out of your fresh landscaping. "Would you kindly GET LOST?!"
'BLAM!' Your power glove fires a wall of orange energy, which slams into a shield Shining erects. However, the shield crumples from lack of effort into maintaining it, and it's Armor's turn to demolish a wall.
"HAH!" you shout. "Take that Shining!"
("If it's one thing I've learned, it's never gloat in combat...")
'WHAM!'
You're tackle-slammed into a wall by something that leaves a rainbow colored contrail in its wake. Yet, in all the excitement, what should have put you down right here only triggered that newtype flash instinct again, and you rolled with the blow just as it struck. Even as you slide along the ground, you place your legs over your head and buck into the blur, sending... shock-shock, the filly-fooler careening out of control into a third story window above you.
"Oh not this!" you snap when you realize what her presence means.
"THAT'S MY BROTHER!" the voice of Sparkle-butt declares from behind you. This time, it's not a newtype flash that warns you to duck or lose your head, as the sizzling magical heat of a horn blast zips over your shoulder, flash frying ... Flash Sentry in mid attack himself. The Pegasus blinks a few times in his new extra crispy state before falling over with a cute little puff of 'Ouch...'
'Okay', you think as you turn to four of the deadly six looking at you with a glare that could curdle fresh milk. 'Six on one on a thousand... Sounds like my usual odds!'
"Alright..." you glare back in return. "Concussions now, clearing up misunderstandings later. Are we agreed?"
Twilight just snorts angrily.
"I'll take that as a yes..." you twist you neck, eliciting a pop.
FIGHT! flashes over you once more...
'Do you mind?' you ask Nimmy.
("If I have to be here, I might as well be entertained.")
Sometime during the three-way brawl, when you're winded and tired...
Hooded Offender needs food badly!
Well... *pant*... done...
Thank you. In all seriousness, though, I need some time to regain some of my strength. I don't suppose you could lay low for a minute?
Yeah, I don't think that's going to be an option. Unless...
If you say, "Look! A distraction!" I swear on-
No, I'm going to BE the distraction!
You charge up the last of your energy, apologizing profusely to your sore throat, and scream in the RCV,
"ROLL CALL!"
All the action stops.
You pick up a stray newspaper and look it over. "Shining Armor!"
He looks around in confusion, his forelegs wrapped around a Horde member's neck. "Here?"
"Good! Flash Sentry?"
No one answers.
"Flash Sentry!"
"Here," a voice mutters behind you.
You turn to see Flash Sentry standing behind you with a broken parking meter in his hooves. "You stay where I can see you, Mr. Sentry! Do you understand?"
"Yes, sir," he mutters and walks into the mob in front of you.
"Good. Moving on: Random Horde Member 17?"
One of the cloaked figures raises a hoof. "I think you knocked him out when you dropped the wall on him."
Another one shakes his head. "No, I'm 17 this week. That was 139."
You tap a hoof impatiently. "So?"
"Oh! Here!"
"Thank you. Ah, would you look at this?" You tap the paper. "Anyone here follow their horoscope? If you're a Gemini, you going to meet a special Leo today!"
One of the Horde, lying on his back with a Royal Guard sitting on him with a menacingly raised hoof, perks up. "I'm a Gemini!"
"Get out," the guard says. "I'm a Leo!"
"No way!" They hoof bump. "You like comics?"
"You know it!"
As... surprisingly effective as this has been, I am restored and ready for the next round whenever you are.
You grin. "Then I only have one thing left to say." You take a breath and screm the one thing you've always wanted to scream as you leap back into the melee.
"YIPPEE-KI-YAY, MOTHERBUCKERS!
5442124 ROFL
Engage the Guards as necessary, but DO NOT forget that your ultimate target is Flag Burner. Defeat or capture him as necessary and clear your name... not that anyone except Cadence, Fluttershy, and a relative few see you as anything more than a criminal and an enemy, but worry about that later.
Oh, don't forget that you're a Changeling. That means you can turn into anyone; USE that power.
It would be interesting if Bugze was to kill Flag Burner he became discorded
5443866 That's So funny
Since this is going to be part one of the fight,
Bugze decides to finish this as quickly and painlessly as possible (for him anyway) and starts with running at top speed and unleashing a Psycho Crusher on the guards. Due to channeling the Armored Shell at the time, This causes even more damage with little to none done to you. You notice this and think:
Bugze: I wonder how much stronger my shell is compared to a pony's body, Armored Shell effects aside. I really should have paid more attention in Changeling Anatomy 101.
Selena: You're thinking about this now? Really? How about you dodge the spell coming at you from your 6?
Bugze: Oh Buck!

As for my least favorite Christmas Special, I would have to say A Christmas Story. I have never liked it.
In my opinion, the newest doctor who special "Last Christmas". I hate gross aliens that have anything to do with crawling on someone's face/eating their brains/ being psychic and I also think the notion that you never know if you dreaming or not just creeps me out. And personally I don't really like the new Doctor
the worst Christmas special is Santa trap
5444237 I think they already explained in the history that he is not very good in "transformation" because of that he need to use potions from Zecora
Out of the corner of your eye you see a ponnequin (mannequin) crash through a shop window during the chaos. Remembering N00b from the Pony Kombat games you used to play, you think Hey, Selena? Is it possible for you to jump into another object for a time?
I guess I could partially do so, why?
If you possess that ponnequin, we can both fight at the same time.
Immediately, you feel her presence diminish and a blue smoke starts to drift over to the ponnequin. Suddenly, it's eyes glow blue and it stands and trots over to you. You both adopt your own fighting stances and prepare to fight your way to the stadium. When you do this, you both swear you see a pony version of Discord shout "Round 1...FIGHT!"
I will admit something.
For the longest time i thought that your fimfic name Down with Chrysalis meant that you were friends/agree with chrysalis like, "Hey, i'm down with chrysalis's reign. She's a pretty good ruler all things considered."
I just read the description at the top and now i feel slightly embarrassed.
"Deck the halls with bloody corpses tralalalala-lala-la-la!"
