For a few moments since the merciless slaughter and wanton destruction began, the Nightmare just stands there, staring with a cold even gaze at the pink pony before him, even its ten tails are moving slower and less violently. The fires alone serve to illuminate the two as they stand on opposite ends of the destroyed street. Pinkamena tenses up, her eyes never leaving the Nightmare's hulking shadowy form, waiting for an attack to come.
"Y-... Y- you... stabbed our baby." the Nightmare speaks in little more than a whisper.
Pinkamena narrows her eyes, when suddenly-
The Nightmare is in her face in the blink of an eye, screaming a terrifying shriek that shatters what remaining windows are still intact around them. It then tries to snap its jaws down around her head, but she dodges out of the way and drags a knife across its throat, only spilling a few drops of glowing blood before the wound heals.
"Hahaha-hah heh." The nightmare chuckles and turns menacingly towards his prey, "Pinkie Pinkie Pinkie, you'll have to do better than-"
*Thock!**Thock!**Thock!**Shink!* But it's interrupted by another round of knives as they embed themselves into its torso.
The Nightmare blinks a few times, "Better than that. Allow us to show you how it's done."
An explosion of midnight magic erupts behind Pinkamena, throwing her off balance long enough for him to rush forward and make a few swipes at her. She dodges most of them, but ultimately is snatched by its newest nightmare tail. With her in its grasp, The Nightmare proceeds to pummel her, smashing her into a taco cart, a gift shop, and several street lamps before sprinting down the street while dragging her face across the storefronts.
"You see this?" it stops and holds Pinkamena up to its face while constricting her in its tail, "This is how you hurt someling that's hurt you! It has to be effective, you have to smile... and you have to enjoy it!"
It then flings her with all its might down the street where she crashes through a wooden vegetable cart, completely obliterating it.
"MY CABBAGES!"
"Ah, classic." The Nightmare sighs.
*Beep Beep BEEP* "What the bu-" the Nightmare stops and cranes its tale in front of its face just in time to see a timebomb planted on it. *BOOOOO-OOOM!*
Pinikimena smiles evilly at the explosion, but she loses her smirk when the dust settles and the Nightmare is still standing without a scratch. The Nightmare grunts before he glares at Pinkie and says,
"Nice try...NOT!"
With that he...
Slowly begins to walk over to Pinkamena Diane Pie. As it reaches her, it throws all its ten nightmare-tails at her, only for her to dodge them all, running sideways at a building. At one point she runs over a window, only for the nightmare-tail to shatter it and grab a poor pony out, squeezing the pony much too hard.
Its intelligent eyes follow her every movement, and after a while it stops trying to hit her.
"What's going on? Tired already, unable to fight?", Pinkamena asks, "Trust me... that won't get you an ending any less painful than you deserve..."
Its tails suddenly rammed into the ground, and shoot out beneath her. She was thrown back into one of the windows she ran over, landing bloodied in the corner.
The Nightmare crawls in through the window, having not said a single word so far.
"How does it feel? How does it feel to be at our mercy, again? How does it feel to realize you are not going to get out of here alive? How does it feel knowing we will destroy you for hurting our Nightshade?"
"Tch, feels pretty normal you sick buck.", she spat at it, "but trust me, this is not going to end like last time..."
Shakily she stood up, crawling up a wall while taking knives out of her hair and throwing them at the Nightmare.
The Nightmare simply walked towards her like you would while going with your dog, and ignored the knives, seeing how he healed everything. As he reached her, he put a hoof at her head.
"Payment", is all she heard before everything exploded. She landed on a balcony of the castle, and jumped back down to go back to the Nightmare. All while muttering creepy things she was going to inflict on him
POV Change : Bugze(You)
As you pretty much waited for Pinkamena to do her job (and hope that she lives), you saw an explosion and...
A crystal staff flying towards you?
Thinking quickly, you ducked... by which you mean you jumped back in fright, only to hit Derpy causing her to fall over with you falling over her.
As the staff miraculously made it through the window, and landed next to you, you picked it up...
It had 'Property of Jack (T.R)' inscripted on it. "Weird", you wondered, "Who would leave a staff like this around to be flung around?"
At your words Luna takes notice of it, and gasps: "We remember that one! It belonged to a serial killer who was targeting a very... special group. It has the ability to store magical energy and release it in a beam... though We hath to wonder how it could have gotten here..."
At this Celestia coughs, and turns away.
"Sister, thou surely didn't..."
Celestia sighs guilty before saying,
"We even asked Tirek for help, and he had greater chances of success. If both were to survive, Tirek would have killed Jack. You cannot rule the dead, after all. I thought that maybe he could give them an opening..."
Luna sighs, before mumbling,
"We already knew it were harsh times, but for an infamous serial killer to get a chance... that makes it even clearer to us."
You were never one for history, so you ask,
"Um, who are you talking about?"
Luna replied sad- and slowly,
"Jack the Ripper, a pony with a heart blacker than Nightmare Moon, Discord and Tirek combined. He c...", at this a voice interrupted her:
"Nu-uh! No going into detail about that part! We have to atleast maintain the illusion of caring about our 'For everyone'-rating! Ups, sorry, the connection is a bit blurry. With you being in another universe and all that..."
You look around, trying to find the source of 'Old'-Pinkie's voice, only to give up. But then you realize that Pinkie just spoke to you from another bucking dimension. You start to try and understand how that's even possible-
Headache. Really big head headache. You try to shake it off and decide to not think about how Pinkie did that, best to just ignore anything that involves Pinkie from your dimension for now.
You also decide to not take the staff, you have your Boom Stick after all, you don't need another staff.
POV Change: Pinkemena
Pinkemena dodges another one of the Nightmares tail stabs and then stabing said tail with a knife. She been doing this for awhile now. Dodge, stab, dodge, stab, dodge, stab. By now the Nightmare is starting to get annoyed as it calls out in rage,
"Gaaahhh... Stop moving and die!"
Pinkemena snorts In anger before she shouts,
"Never! You are not going to win this battle! And you know why?"
The Nightmare growls in anger as he says,
"Don't tell us that tale about love and friendship, because it's not going to work."
Pinkemena smiles at this as she says,
"Well, it's that, but there is also the thing about those that control us... They are my fans, you have many fans, but this is a good vs evil and unlike you, I have more fans and I fight for the good team, the story needs a happy ending after all"
The Nightmare gains a confused look as Pinkemena shouts to the heavens,
"Come on fans! Come on Hive Mind! Come on DWC, give me the power, let me finish the nightmare."
She then takes out one of her knives and points it towards the sky before shouting,
"By the power of Bronies! I have the Power!"
The Nightmare looks at Pinkamena, Pinkamena looks to the sky, but nothing happens.
"Come on, Fans! It's not time to not do nothing, the evil must be vanquished and oh... I forgot this was a bad comedy... Of course" groans Pinkamena
The Nightmare just stares at Pinkemena for a few more minutes before he snarls and is about to charge at Pinkie when...
From up above the Nightmare, a youthful yell is heard. The Nightmare looks up only to have an orange pegasus filly land on its back, plunging a pair of blades into it’s back.
“Oh no!” the Nightmareyells sarcastically/insanely (he's insane, it's hard to tell), “We are being attacked by some sort of small flightless bird! Is this revenge for all those chickens we flash-fried for Nightshade!”
“I’m not a bird!” yells the filly as she keeps stabbing the Nightmare repeatedly, to which it can’t quite shake her off.
“Hey, quit pecking us!” shouts the Nightmare.
“This is for my family! *STAB* For Sweetie Belle and Applebloom! *STAB* For Ponyville! *STAB* AND FOR RAINBOW DASH!” she screeches as she stabs his ear.
“Youch, why the ear? Alright that’s enough!” the Nightmare screams as he wraps her in some tails and holds her in front of his face, to which she tries to stab.
“I’ll never get my cutie mark, grow up, or fly because of you!” she yells. “I could’ve been a wonderbolt, Rainbow Dash would’ve taught me, but because of you everything is over!” she cries.
“Oh, all you wanted to do was fly?” asks the Nightmare, "Why that's no problem little orange chicken! We'll give you free lessons!"
And with that, the Nightmare wraps a nightmare tail around one if it's legs and punts Scootaloo like a hoofball screaming straight into the air at high speed.
"You're welcome!" the Nightmare calls after her.
"Now..."
With that said the Nightmare turns around and charges at Pinkie...
ON THE MOON
We see an older changeling wearing a Bowler hat near a makeshift campsite as he narrates to himself while writing in a journal,
"Day &*%&. Still no sign of the 'Mare on the Moon'. Although I am still curious about that shiver up my spine that felt like all my former co-workers were being brutally slaughtered by a pink pony with a chainsaw arm (weird how specific that was) But mark my words, I will find the Mare on the Moon AND I WILL BANG HER ALL NIGHT LO-"
Suddenly an orange blur slams into him from above. When the dust cloud settles he mutters,
"Why do I feel like a chicken landed on me?"
BACK ON...WHATEVER PLANET THIS SHOW TAKES PLACE ON
Pinkie dodges another attack from the Nightmare, but before she can do much the Nightmare...
shoots forwards and swings a tail right at her. Pinkemena jumps away, the tail smashing the concrete from where she previously stood into dust, only for the monster to grip the concrete with its outstretched tail and launches itself to meet the psycho pony in midair. Pinkemena meets its initial head butt with twin knives, twisting around the vicious horns and tusks to plunge each of them into an eye each.
The Nightmare merely grunts.
“Graagh!” PInkemena shouts. She uses the forward momentum and the Nightmare’s very horns to hop out of the way of swipes of its tails, abandoning the knives.
She lands on the ground with a roll to the side and grabs a bloody knife from the ground. She ducks away from a blind Dark Falcon Punch. She swung her knife. She stabs it into a lashing tail. With a struggle, she grips hard onto the knife as the tail wildly swings back in, dragging it along with her, and lets go to fling herself into the air.
From the air, she twists around to point her cybernetic hoof at the Nightmare. A glow and hum emits from the end of the hoof as an open end turns red hot for a moment before it shoots out a beam of energy and into the Nightmare’s face.
“Gah!” it shouts, “Stop hitting the face! Fus Ro Dah!”
She is blown away from the attack, but she rights herself haphazardly in the air before pulling something out with her metal arm. She then jerks to a stop, just in time to keep from splatting into a nearby building and plant a knife onto it's wall, bracing her.
The Nightmare feels a tug on his horns and he begins to see flickers of straight light heading back to the Pink mare. Strings. And they sting.
“Metal strings, lightweight and 10% Orichalcum.” She smirks from the wall, and pulls the string taught. “You like?”
“Raaaugh!” The Nightmare shoots out a wave of darkness, intending to crush her and the building along with her.
“…Guess not.”
Pinkemena instantly throws a knife, the blade riding onto the path the string gave before she jumps onto the string line and then bounces off of it and onto the rooftop, the edge shielding her from the shadows. Judging by the sickly sound of cutting flesh and the roar of anger afterwards, she hit home.
Suddenly, the building beneath her shakes and crumbles. Cursing, she runs to leap to another rooftop. It was a distance too far to be fair, but she presses on anyways. With a heave, she throws her weight to gain height and suffers the wait of being on air for two seconds. She lands. She tumbles. She makes it!
She stands back on all fours with a roll to face the decimated building, another knife out, just in time to see the accursed changeling burst out of the rubble as a blur and land on the roof to join her. Cracks forms on the concrete by its claws.
“You think you’d get to run?!” It punches with a tail. Pinkemena dodges, this time going inside its guard to stab and pin one front leg to the ground, only for it to break out that one leg and strike her with it, but she jumps and flips over him to the other, to which the Nightmare slams two tails onto her head and body.
She pays no mind to the pain nor her long pink hair as it blocks her sight, but instead, with her teeth, pulls the string that she set up around the leg she just stabbed to make it go taught. She then throws a flurry of knives, most of them meeting The Nightmare’s parrying tails.
Unknown to the Nightmare Changeling, some of the knives rides on the string and strike at on the same leg.
“Gah! So annoying! Get over here!” In rage, the Nightmare pulls the string and drags her towards him, to which she responds with a point blank laser beam to the face. It throws three tails at her, making sure that it won’t miss, only for her to swing around with the string she continues to hold onto and deftly cleared over all three legs.
The Nightmare is about to strike with his other tails but Pinkemena surprises him with an explosion of flour to the face.
White dust blocks his visions, so he slams a few of his tails to the ground to crush the roof into nothing, forcing the battle field to be on the inside of a roofless building. Dust, dirt, concrete, and grime is now included into the party of white particles. He sweeps his tails around to clear it all with flair. However, more and more flour replaces it.
“Flour? Seriously? How cute.”
“Hm.” Pinkemena steps a ways away from it, approaching a window. “Ever heard of a ‘Dust Explosion’?” She jumps out, turning back to shoot a spark of her laser beam into the white-dusty room.
The result is spectacular. The building right before her eyes burns bright in a brilliant boom of orange and red and gray. For a moment, the pink pony sees white and feels and hears the inkling of nothingness. Really, it didn’t faze her all that much. She fights through the numbness and lands on something with a thud.
Glancing around, she finds that she crashed into a whole different building. Judging by the glass and the crumbling of a building nearby, it is a building from next door… She hears a deafening, and chilling, roar. She didn’t even turn. She just ran.
Pinkemena grunts. “Tch. Still bucking unkillable, I see.”
She jumps through window to window, building to building, cutting away obstacles when she sees fit, and that is all with the Nightmare chasing her down as it rams and decimates each building she has been in from the outside.
”You can run! But you can’t hide!” It bellows from the outside.
At that, she feels Pinkie Keen.
Instantly, without so much as faltering or stumbling, she makes a sharp turn to jump through a window that led to the open streets, not even minding the glass. Just in time, too, as the building she has been in falls victim to the Nightmare’s merciless destruction, becoming rubble in seconds.
Speaking of whom...
”Get down here!” The Nightmare is onto her, launching into the air to meet her. It wraps all ten of its tails around her, forming an inescapable ball of shadow and squeezes. ”Now, let’s see if you can survive this one!”
It slams the ball to the ground. It slams Into a poor nearby lamppost. It then slams it into a food stall, a game store, a mall, a bridge, and then into an entire block!
"Raaugh!”
…Until, finally, it lets go and throws the contents onto the ground. Not even waiting, it follows it up with a devastating torrent shadow blasts! It stops, chuckling at its handiwork, expecting for there to be the smell of blood and death. He sniffs the air as though it would bring a heavenly a smell.
There is none.
Confusion quickly becomes an acute attention to one of his tails. There, cut haphazardly but effectively, is the stub of his tail. Typical, his body hadn't quite adjusted to his tenth tail. Power has become spread out after his excursion with Tirek and Discord. It stares at its now severed tail for a moment…
”Slippery, now arent’cha?” …before quickly regenerating the tail into its original length. Still, he had plenty left.
Meanwhile, Pinkemena is huffing and puffing behind a building. While she did escape with her life, she still sustains some major damage. The bleeding and bruising and aching coming from her head and torso and hindquarters makes it clear for.
She laughs dryly. It is the same. Just like the last time.
Back when she was afraid and helpless. Back when all she could do was cry—she wants to cry! When she’s so susceptible to pain… Weak. She was too weak. Pathetic. That last attack gave her the case of whites and blacks, reaching the point of near death. It didn’t faze. It just didn’t.
A smile breaks through her severe expression. Of course. After all, the same happened to Pinkie Pie when she died. Slowly, but surely, her sight blackens, her eyes closing all the same. She began to slump, taking in the serenity of just…letting go.
No.
She has to finish this! She can’t die yet! Not yet!
She gasps because of the sudden ringing of her ears, her aching body and beating heart rapidly forcing her back awake. How long has she been out?!
”You got Us good that time, but did you think you'd actually get away?"
Her eyes widen. She spins and throws a knife, to which the Nightmare casually catches with a tail.
”We’re a god. You think just a few puny knives and laser is going to stop Us?”
She went to throw more knives, but finds that she couldn’t. That's it. That is the last one. “Gods bleed all the same!” Pinkemena shouts, mustering all the strength she has left.
”Oh, please!” It rolls its eyes in dismissal. ”We’ve bleed plenty of times. It had lost its meaning a very, very long time ago.”
“Maybe. But I have something that will hurt you. Permamently.”
Pinkemena Diane Pie, pink psycho and ex-party pony to all of Ponyville, Mistress of Death and Grim Joker to all, brings out the Orichalum blade. She extends out the chainsaw from her cybernetic leg, revving the weapon with an intimidating and fearsome roar. The flesh render on one metal hoof, and the regeneration decimeter on the hoof with flesh. She stands on her hind legs.
This is it. Her last stand. She will not run. She will not be afraid!
The Nightmare grins. ”Bring it. Let’s have some fun!”
Round Two. Fight! Then, they dance.
Kersey's Comment
Or they try to, as an obese, glasses-wearing, Earth pony member of the Horde says,
"She's clearly ripping off Bruce Chinbell from the Evil Dead trilogy! You should ironically rip off her ripoff chainsaw arm then impale her with it while quoting Batmare: The Killing Joke!"
The Nightmare lights up at this and says,
"That's a great idea fat glasses-wearing Horde pony! For that, I shall kill you quickly and last."
"Thanks my film buff lord (I guess...)! Also... Can I have some bits for the last Hayburger place standing- my God?"
"Eh... Sure, why not?" The Nightmare nonchalantly responds as he tosses a nearby vault full of Bits at Kersey...
*SMASH*
That lands on the fat Earth pony.
"I'm okay..." Kersey says from under the safe.
"Alrighty then, where were we?" asks the Nightmare.
Pinkamena doesn't say anything as she rushes forth with her blades of death.
Pinkamena leaps towards the Nightmare, swinging her Orichalcum sword like mad (which she is. Like, really really mad). The Nightmare grabs a nearby piece of rubble and flings it at the approaching psycho. Pinkamena just leaps onto the rubble as it approaches, runs across it and leaps off again, her gallop uninterrupted. The Nightmare's glare deepens, as he throws several more pieces of rubble, and Pinkamena just leaps from piece to piece, continuing her assault. The Nightmare gets fed up, tears out a building by the foundations, and hurls it at her. To his surprise, Pinkamena fires several rockets from her cybernetic arm, blowing a hole through the building as she continues to fly towards her goal. She prepares her sword for a stab when The Nightmare just swings a tail, knocking her away like a baseball.
Pinkamena slams into another building, disappearing in a puff of dust. The Nightmare grins at this until Pinkamena's cybernetic arm shoots out from the cloud, detached from her body and flying with rocket boosters. It punches The Nightmare in the face before turning and flying back, reattaching to Pinkamena. She grins, before she notices the Nightmare dashing towards her. He rams into her, and the two blast into the building to the sound of smashing concrete.
The Nightmare bursts through the other side and flings Pinkamena across the street; the building he crashed through collapses behind him. Pinkamena gets back up, and tosses another couple knifes at him; he bats them away with his tails, and a deflected knife soars right back at Pinkamena, forcing her to dodge as it barely slices past her. She turns back, and leaps away as a beam of darkness vaporizes the spot where she'd stood before.
The Nightmare gets Pinkamena on the run, blasting lasers at her heels. Pinkamena throws a series of knifes into a building ahead, then hops onto the embed handles like they were stair steps. She gets above The Nightmare, before turning to the building. Her cybernetic arm shoots a blast of flame at the building, providing thrust to rocket her towards The Nightmare. He grins, and grabs a streetlamp with a Nightmare Tail. He bends it back, before letting it go; it swings forwards and swats the airborne earth pony away. She crashes into the road, but quickly gets back on her hooves. Seeing a nearby carriage, she runs towards it, and with her earth pony strength, pushes it towards The Nightmare. He grins, before catching it in one of his Nightmare Tails and crushing it like a raw egg.
Pinkamena grabs a couple of shurikens, before hurling them at The Nightmare. He dodges left and right, avoiding the projectiles with ease. Pinkamean uses this as a distraction to rush forwards. Almost upon The Nightmare, she grabs the Doctor's collar and goes for the throat. The Nightmare ducks beneath her hoof, before delivering a massive headbutt. Pinkamena and the collar go flying- she lands on her feet, while the collar lands on the awning of a building.
Pinkamena again charges The Nightmare. His horn lights up, firing several orbs of dark magic, all of which Pinkamena avoids. The Nightmare wraps a Nightmare Tail around his hoof.
"Dark Falcon... PUNCH!!!" To his surprise, Pinkamena evades the attack, moving fluidly around the punch and swinging the Orichalcum sword. She slices into The Nightmare's leg, and he gives a cry of pain. Pinkamena continues the attack by body slamming The Nightmare, knocking him to the ground. She hoists the sword above her head and prepares to stab.
She hesitates. She glances back at the collar on the building awning, remembering her mission. And The Nightmare gets his breath back.
"FUS RO DAH!!!" The shout of power sends Pinkamena flying, knocking her into the building. The collar drops next to her. She picks it up, and struggles to her hooves.
"You survived a Fus Ro Dah? That's like something we'd do! But you're no god."
"No," Pinkamena grins. "I'm only a bitter soul, longing for revenge." She flings another shuriken at The Nightmare, crying out "I shall have it!!!" It buries itself in The Nightmare's shoulder. He glances at it, nonchalantly tugs it out, and turns to Pinkamena.
Pinkamena fires a laser blast from her cybernetic arm. The Nightmare counters with a magical laser of his own, one that easily cuts through Pinkamena's and blasts her away. Pinkamena gets back up and charges. The Nightmare, getting kind of sick of this crap, digs his tails into the road. With great effort, he bends the pipes beneath, lifting a huge water pipe that sprays a torrent of water at Pinkamena. The jet hits her, and surprisingly, she struggles through the intense pressure, inching forwards.
The Nightmare growls in annoyance, before a nostalgic memory through his warped mind, a glimpse of that old brawl in Appleoosa, all that time ago. He charges up a burst of magic, before shooting it into the water. The water crackles with magic like electricity, blasting Pinkamena from the jet and into another building. She groans, before very slowly, she rises to her hooves. As soon as she does she rushes (ambit slower the before) at the Nightmare and she...
Starts to...taunt him?
“I’ll wipe you from this world like I did to all the other changelings!” she shouts.
The Nightmare’s eyes widen, “That was you?” it asks.
“Yes! And I enjoyed every last minute ending your brethren!”
The Nightmare shouts and rage and slams her through a building.
“You Pink Psycho…WE WANTED TO DO THAT!”
“Wait wha…?” Pinkie says with a double take.
“We wanted to slaughter and burn the changelings and eat their shells for what they did to us…but no, when we got there, some Pink B!%$# beat us to it!”
Pinkie is then thrown face first into a statue, and she gets groggy.
“Uuuuuggggghhhhh...” she groans.
“We didn’t even get to see the light leave our former Queen’s eyes…and it’s all YOUR FAULT!” it shouts as it’s about to crush Pinkie with its tails. But she is teleported out of the way.
“What the? Since when can stupid mud ponies teleport?”
Pinkie looks up and sees her savior is Fleur with a group of guards and Fancy Pants..
“Ms. Pie, you are injured, you must retreat.”
“N-never…” Pinkie wheezes out.
Fleur looks up to her guards, “Flank him while he’s distracted.”
The guards then run out towards the Nightmare.
“Really? You ran away? Boring!” the Nightmare says in frustration.
“Fancy, get her to the castle…” Fleur says.
Fancy tries to, but Pinkie pushes him away.
“There’s no time to argue now…” he starts.
“You can’t beat him! Only I can! I have to put the collar on!” Pinkie shouts as she runs out towards the battle.
She rushes past the (now slaughtered) guards before she jumps at the Nightmare's face and...
During the fight, Pinkie is battered, bruised and cut, but she keeps going. When she slices off one of the Nightmare’s horns, he feels it.
“GGGGGRRRRAAAAAGGHHHH!!!!” it yells in pain.
Pinkie then grabs the broken horn and spears the Nightmare with it.
“Now you know how Twilight felt when you stabbed her with her own horn!” she shouts.
Because it was cut with Orichalcum, it doesn’t grow back.
Slices off one of the Nightmare’s horns, and he feels it.
“GGGGGRRRRAAAAAGGHHHH!!!!” it yells in pain.
Pinkie then grabs the broken horn and spears the Nightmare with it.
“Now you know how Twilight felt when you stabbed her with her own horn!” she shouts.
The Nightmare stumbles back a little bit, before he growls in rage and says,
"Your gonna pay for that you b%#@!"
With that he grabs Pinkie in one of his tails, squeezes her a little bit, before he tosses her onto a nearby rooftop. The Nightmare soon follows her and engages in combat...
But between punches that miss and only to go through solid walls, magic blasts that are easily dodged or avoided, and constantly getting struck in the face with knives and kicks from the nimble opponent, the Nightmare only gets more and more angry.
"Will *Smash* You *Crash* Stand *Shatter* Still?! Buck this!" it screams and pulls a replica Captain Equestria shield from its Inventory and sings "When Captain Equestria throws his mighty shield, all those who choose to oppose his shield must YIELD!" before throwing it at Pinkamena.
But she stops in her tracks, does a half-turn and catches it with her metal arm. She looks at it and sings "Unless you're a plane, or a bomb, or some ice, or a psycho pony with a robotic leg... Then you don't necessarily have to yield!"
Pinkemena then throws the shield right back at the Nightmare. But the Nightmare simply smacks it out of the way. Pinkie is about to charge at the Nightmare when...
Suddenly, chains wraps around Pinkemena. A glance down and she sees that it came from her own shadow!
”Like our new move?!” the Nightmare shouts as it launches a stream of darkness towards her.
Without hesitating, she brings out her metal hoof, opening a compartment from within—her grenade holder! Out came a flash grenade, and she closes her eyes.
Bang!
After that, her own shadow disappears along with the chains that held her, and then she leaps away and keeps on running, just in time for the darkness to sweep the area and leave literally nothing behind.
A sharp turn, and then she is charging at the monster with a roar, all four of its eyes widening. And thus, Pinkemena began hacking and slashing without a care.
A tail to the torso. And still…she presses on.
She twists around the force and put more forward momentum, swinging her sawblade along with it.
A Phantom blast of shadow on her way. And still she presses on.
She jumps over it and swung down both blades, going through the slits of the Nightmare’s Shadow Tail Defense. A roll-slam to the ground . And still she presses on!
She holds the grip of her two blades, twists, and pulls them out, staggering but nonetheless taking satisfaction in the fact that she actuallypierced the darn monster!
A Dark Falcon Punch to the face. She pushes through it. And still. She. Presses. On!
And through it all… She thought about her friends. A trio of butterflies. A trio of apples. A rain cloud and rainbow lightning bolt. A triplet of diamonds.
And a six-let-point starbust.
And with the light of her Laughter, she cuts. She slices. She dices! Left and Right! She unrelentlessly presses on even as the Nightmare hits her again and again! They became blurs, and the only thing that can be seen at that point is the streams of blue and pink and red colliding with the perversion of black and red and purple.
MEANWHILE AT THE PALACE
As you, Derpy, the Doctor, and the Princesses all look at the fight through a magical projection,
“She won’t stay down…” Derpy mutters.
“Don’t worry Derpy, she’s tough and once she gets that collar on him, bye bye healing factor.”
The Doctor just sighs at that.
“Why did you just sigh like that Doc? That sounded like a sigh that means something bad,” you quiz the Doctor.
“I never said the collar would cancel out his healing factor, I just said it would dampen it and give us a chance,” the Doctor says.
“WHAT?!” you and Derpy exclaim.
“It will suppress his healing to where it won’t be instantaneous like it is now, but it will still be there, but at an immense fraction of what it used to be” the Doctor explains.
You look at him angrily, “And you didn’t want to mention that to Pinkie?” you growl.
He sighs once more, “It wouldn’t have made a difference if I had…she would have gone anyway.”
“Doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have told her!” you shout.
He closes his eyes and looks down, “I know…”
“So he’ll still be able to heal somewhat?” Derpy asks.
“Yes, but he will feel his wounds and suffer for them, even if it’s for a few minutes, sometimes that’s all the edge you will need in a battle…”
You shake your head because it makes sense, even if Pinkie was lied to. You then see the Princesses walk up to the Doctor.
"We are finished Doctor," says Celestia.
"Ah, fantastic, you've charged the coupling?" he says.
"Yes, to the peak of what we can manage," says Luna.
The Doctor takes the coupling from them, and it is glowing with power. He runs his sonic screwdriver over it. After a moment the hopeful look in his eyes is replaced by shock as he shouts,
“Blast it all to Tartarus!” as the magic coupling the princesses created is nowhere near as powerful than what’s needed, “We’ll never be able to travel with this…”
“But that spell took a lot out of us,” says Cadance.
“Indeed, we should not expel more less we have to face the Nightmare even more exhausted,” says Luna.
“Are you saying there’s no hope?” asks Celestia.
“If we had a month perhaps to juice this up, but we don’t exactly have that kind of time right now!”
“So what do we do Doc?” you ask.
“We have two options, 1.Hope that we can take down The Nightmare so that we will have the time needed,”
You look out the window and see the Nightmare still beating Pinkie, without the collar.
“I don’t know about that Doc,”
“Or Two, we hope that the old girl can track down some other source and fast…either option is dire,” he says downtrodden. He points his Sonic Screw Driver at the TARDIS, and a little monitor pops up with the words, “Searching” on it.
“Is there nothing else to do?” asks Derpy. He takes her hoof in his as he watches the battle.
“No Ditzy…we just have to wait and see.”
You all look out at the final battle while Luna and Celestia try to bring their magic levels back up.
BACK TO THE FIGHT
It is a long and hard-fought battle. Pinkemena with her deadly dual wielding…and the Nightmare with his malicious arsenal of tails and shadow... But neither stops for the other, even despite injury after injury after injury and after injury. Until, finally. Finally! Everything falls silent.
When the dust settles...it shows the Nightmare holding down Pinkemena. pinkemena glares at the Nightmare, but he only says to her...
"How does it feel?"
The Nightmare leers with hatred as its claws start to crush what's left of Pinkamena's lower half into the ground.
"How does it feel to know our pain? HUH?! How does it feel to see someone, and only wish for their deaths? To smear their carcass for all the world to see, before you kill them too?"
The Nightmare lifts it's claw up and stomps on Pinkamena's right bottom hoof, crushing it. Pinkie holds back a scream of pain as the Nightmares enraged ranting going manic.
"Is it not liberating? Is it not THERAPUTIC?! DO YOU NOT FEEL JOY IN JUST LETTING IT ALL GO?!"
"Joy?"
NB halt's at the sound of a word that's almost a ragged cough.
"Joy died the day you murdered my friends... The day you murdered me- no... The day you murdered Pinkie Pie. I may take satisfaction in killing you, and I WILL kill you, but joy is gone."
The Nightmare snorts in disgust.
"Kill us? Your right hind leg is like a PB-and J sandwich that's been chewed up and spat out, your life fluids draining like the cheap punch you once used to entertain the idiots you called friends. Your heartbeat slows even as we speak. You are BROKEN... and this time you will stay that way."
Pinkamena coughs again.
"Maybe..." she counters, a bloody smirk gracing her features. "Maybe... I will. But not yet. I can't go yet."
"Oh, but we're afraid you don't have a choice in the matter..." the Nightmare raises it's claw once more, this time taking aim to smash her skull like a watermelon.
"No..." Pinkamena coughs. "I do... I made a promise after all..."
The comment causes the Nightmare to hesitate,
*flash*
and allows Pinkie to dissapear in a flash of light.
"Huh?" the Nightmare grunts in confusion.
NEARBY...
Pinkie shows up in front of Fleur and Fancy who immediately cast a combined healing spell on her hind leg, making it good as new. As Pinkie gets up she sees Fancy Pants holding the collar.
"I believe you dropped these." Fancy says, offering the collar and sword to her.
Looking at Fancy and Fleur, Pinkemena nods her head as she accepts the collar and sword and says,
"This is our only hope to stop him. We need to get this around his neck. Will you help me?"
Fleur and Fancy nod their heads, which cause Pinkie to smile as she says while revving her chain saw,
"Groovy."
"Come out, come out, wherever you arrrre..." the Nightmare taunts as it walks along the ruins on Canterlot looking for Pinkemena. As it sends out a Nightmare Tail around a corner-
*Bwwob bwwwobbubwub shnk*
"RRRRAGGGH!!!!" The Nightmare roars in pain as the tail is permanently severed off (9 remaining). Pinkie, Fancy, and Fleur rush out from the corner with chainsaw running and sword brandish as a nightmare tail lashes out on instinct to protect its master-
*shink* (8 Nightmare Tails remaining)
But it gets sliced off too. Now going wild with pain-induced rage, the Nightmare starts wildly flailing it's tails around and manages to smack Fleur, Fancy, and Pinkie into several hard objects with Pinkie is flung further away, losing the sword.
When the Nightmare calms down, he spots Fleur lying their. Briefly mistaking her pink mane for Pinkie, he charges up a blast from his tails and fires at her only for Fancy to run in front of the supermodel unicorn and shield her with his body as he takes the brunt of the blast.
“FANCY! NO!” she screams as Fancy falls before her.
"Whoopsy! Wrong pink!" the Nightmare comments.
Fleur then cradles the dying gentlepony in her arms as they say their romantic last words to each ot-
"We'll... give you some alone time. Never did like THESE scenes." the Nightmare comments as it turns around to look for Pinkiemena.
With a roar of anger, Fleur grabs a nearby spear with her magic and rushes the Nightmare, but one of the nightmare tails yanks the spear away from her and stabs her with it.
"Don't you have a sugar-daddy to join in the afterlife?" the Nightmare comments as he tosses her back at Fancy's body.
Pinkie shows up with her chainsaw and collar out and attempts to get him from behind, but the Nighmare turns around and forcibly swats the pink psycho with enough force to send her smashing through the window of a western-themed restaurant. With that, she drops the collar to the ground from the impact and the Nightmare closes in and says,
"That is one Groovy-looking chainsaw arm. May we have it?"
"You'll have to take it from me..." Pinkemena says defiantly while spitting out some blood from the hole in her gut.
"Your proposal is acceptable."
With that, Nightmare Bugze violently wraps a Nightmare Tail around her chainsaw arm before declaring,
"You know, that fat horde pony had a great idea...Appleloosa! Scene 1, Take 2, and..."
Nightmare Bugze tears her arm off as he screams,
"ACTION!"
Nightmare Bugze then impales Pinkemena with her own running chainsaw arm (making the hole in her gut even bigger) before it then holds up the impaled psycho close to it's face and says,
"Because I heard it before..." She weakly says,
With that she flicks her remaining front limb revealing that it was secretly a prosthetic with ballistic orichalcum knives in it.
"And your delivery stinks!"
With that, Pinkie launches a knife point-blank into Nightmare Bugze's eye causing him to howl in pain as he throws Pinkemena away.
Pinkie then starts crawling away. She makes it to the street when she risks a look back and sees,
The Nightmare with a nightmare tail tightly wrapped around it's wounded eye like a bandage, while the rest of his face is breathing heavily as it's stuck in a deranged smile as he starts singing slowly and creepily as he follows her,
“Come on everypony, smile smile smile, fill our heart up with sunshine, sunshine, all we really need is a smile smile smile, from these happy friends of mine…” it says as it raises it's tails up for one final smash, but Pinkie Pie just hold her hoof up as she leans up against some rubble and looks at the Nightmare with tears in her eyes and says,
“Wait…”
The Nightmare stops in shock at this,
Suddenly, the Nightmare’s throat is enclosed by some sort of collar.
“That!” Pinkie yells as she points the hoof she held up, launching another knife out of her prosthetic arm and into one of the Nightmare’s eye, now leaving the monster with only two.
"GRAAAHHHHH!!! I'M BLIND!!! I MEAN HALF-BLIND, QUARTER BLI- GAHHHH!!! YOU HAVE FAILED ME, BRAIN!" The Nightmare roars in pain as he grabs his face.
Fleur lets go of her magic’s hold on the collar as her horn unglows and the last of her energy fades.
“For… Fancy…” she says as she breathes her last, lying against Fancy's body.
The Nightmare stumbles around in absolute agony as it yanks out the knife and tries (and fails) to get the collar off.
"Okay... Healy time... I said HEALY TIME!... WHY YOU NO HEALING, EYES?!!!"
He then starts panicking as he realizes his eyes are not healing and the collar won’t come off as Pinkie watches this spectacle and laughs.
“Now that’s…*cough cough* pretty funny…heh heh heh heheheheheh,” she starts slowly laughing as she looks up to the sky. The Last of the Elements of Harmony begins to breathe her last. Looking up to the stars, she sees them moving towards her…their presence blocks the light of the moon.
Chariots…Come to take me away…I’ll be there soon girls…Don’t party without me…she thinks with a smile as the life leaves her. The “Stars” blocking all other light from the sky.
Back at the Castle
Everyone looks solemn as they watch the finale.
“She’s gone…She did it, but she’s gone” you think in sadness.
Derpy begins crying, as the Princesses speak.
"Her sacrifice will not be in vain," says Celestia
"She did her duty," says Luna.
"She went out smiling," says Cadance.
You nod at this. "And now that monster has the collar on..."
“Then there’s still hope,” the Doctor says, before a noise catches his attention.
The TARDIS monitor starts beeping and saying, Coupling found.
“What?” he says as he rushes over.
“Have you found another source for the Coupling Doctor?” asks Celestia.
“No, I haven’t found another source, I’ve found a whole Coupling!”
“How’s that possible?” you ask.
“I have no clue! But the model is exactly the one I need,” suddenly more blips appear on the screen.
“What?” he screams.
“What’s going on Doctor?” asks Celestia.
“There are multiple couplings…and they are headed our way, the only way that could happen is if…” he trails off, “No that’s not possible.”
“What’s not possible?” you ask.
“Ships…technologically advanced ships like my TARDIS, and they’re sending out some sort of signal.”
“The Time Lords are here?” asks a hopeful Derpy.
“I don’t know Ditzy…” he says as he broadcasts the frequency, and it is jumbled.
“Ow, that grates on the ears,” you complain.
“Shush, I have to make the signal clearer.”
The Doctor begins fiddling with his console, and in the breaks of the distorted sound, comes a voice.
Back with the Nightmare
It still flails around trying to get the collar off, but to no extent.
“You stupid Pink B!%$#,” it cries out at Pinkie, “What did you do to us? Why won’t our eyes heal?! Why won’t…huh?” the Nightmare says stunned as it sees thousands of metal ships descend from the sky and hover over the land.
Back with You
The voice cuts in through the static.
"Ex..."
The Doctor’s eyes widen, "No..no"
"Ex...ter"
"Oh no not them!" cries Derpy.
"Ex...ter...min"
"Doctor...please tell me I'm not hearing that. Please please tell me I'm not hearing that!" you plead.
Suddenly the radio goes crazy with shouts of one word. One, terrifying word...
"EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!"
The Doctor, You, and Derpy gulp in fear as the Doctor says,
"Sorry everypony...but this world’s chances of surviving just got smaller"
Back With the Nightmare
It looks up to the ships as that word is broadcast across the land. From the ships fly strange cylindrical creatures with eye stalks, and two stumpy arm protrusions, all yelling Exterminate. Forgetting the pain in it’s eyes for the moment, the Nightmare smiles.
“Now this just got real interesting…”
What do you do?
The Daleks come streaming out of the ships, shooting everything in their path.
On hovers in front of the Nightmare.
“OK, quick question if you’re willing, what in the buck are you?” it asks.
“Exterminate!” The Dalek says as it shoots the Nightmare.
“GGGRAAAAGGGHHHH!!!!” the Nightmare screams as the beam feels like it permeates it’s whole body, but it’s body flushes with shadow and it’s three eyes glow in anger.
“Now that was rude…” it growls.
“Impossible! Nothing can survive the Daleks!” it tries to shoot again, but the Nightmare ducks under it and tackles it, taking hold of the eye stalk.
“Daleks heh? Well that’s a stupid name,” it taunts.
“Daleks are superior, Daleks will purge this world!”
“We kind of already did that trash can,” it leans in closer, “We don’t like competition!” it growls as it tears the top half of the Dalek off.
“Dalek destroyed! Exterminate the Tailed Creature! Exterminate!” cry more warbled voices, followed by more shots.
“Aaaahhhh!!!” screams the Nightmare, “Those hurt you buckers!” it screams launching itself at the Daleks.
“What are these things Doctor?” asks Celestia.
“Daleks…my oldest enemies” he responds.
“What do they want?” asks Cadance.
“Death…death of any creature that isn’t Dalek…” he says.
“What can we do?” asks Luna, but before she can answer The Daleks burst into the Palace and attempt to shoot everypony.
Princess Celestia is shot, it hurts her, but she fires up her horn and destroys one.
“Impossible! The horned and winged ones are immune!” warbles one.
The Daleks then notice The TARDIS.
“Impossible!”
“A TARDIS?!”
“The Time Lords Are No More,”
“The Doctor is No More!”
“I wouldn’t say that gents,” the Doctor says distracting them.
“THE DOCTOR LIVES?!”
“THE DOCTOR IS HERE?!”
They shout in fear.
“Maybe not your Doctor, but yes The Doctor lives,” he calmly tells them.
“EXTERMINATE!!!” they all shout, but because of the Doctor’s distraction, you, Celestia, Luna, and Cadance are able to take down the Daleks.
It seems hard to believe that these things are such galactic terrors, as ridiculous as they look, comments Selena.
Silly or not, these things are flippin horrifying, you answer.
I know, your knowledge of the serial has shown me that, be careful Bugze
Don't I always? you jibe
No, she answers.
Your eyes widen, Oh, right...
The Doctor lets everyone know that they have to get onto one of the Dalek ships to get a coupling.
As they run through the streets, the Daleks shooting anypony the Nightmare didn’t kill, they come under the mother ship.
The Nightmare shows up and starts fighting Celestia and Luna, who fight him off to give The Doctor, Cadance, Derpy, and You time to get onto the ship.
The Brown Dog, a Diamond Dog with some sick shades, stands with his fellow Horde Cult members, he thought it was a shame the pink one dying so sadly, she was kind of awesome. He and the others then witness alien ships descending from the sky.
“The Buck is this?” he asks aloud.
Then the word Exterminate is said aloud.
“The Buck is that?”
Then Daleks come streaming out.
“The Buck are those?”
The Daleks then come across members of the horde and start killing them easily.
“…OK, so that’s happening…” he mumbles.
Snap Drake turns to him, “Brown Dog, what should we do?”
“I don’t bucking know. Why you asking me?”
“Because Kersey is out buying junk food and movies with the money the master gave him, and you’re the only thing holding us together,” he says.
He looks at the others then at Snap Drake incredulously, “Buddy, I joined this group because otherwise I’d be extremely bored, I’ve just been messing around most the time. I ain’t holding anybody together.”
“Still, what should we do?” he asks.
“OK, here’s the plan…try not to die and go do your own thing. See ya!” he says before running off down the street.
“But what are you going to do?” Snap Drake yells.
The Brown Dog sees a familiar looking unicorn stallion running down the street with a yappy dog.
“I’m so sorry Precious, Daddy will get you out of here,” he says with a snooty voice.
“I’m going to go eat something expensive and full of gas,” he calls back.
Later
The Nightmare crashes through a kitchen. The combined Dalek lasers, and the princess attacks are hurting him. He feels a bit out of breath, but when he looks up, he sees a Diamond Dog in cultist robes, with a hog tied Prince Blueblood on the table in a sauce pan surrounded by, carrots, potatoes and cabbages with an apple stuffed in his mouth. The Dog is chewing on the Prince’s severed horn like a bone.
“Oh, hey Master Offender, did you know you’re missing two eyes and a horn?” he says.
“The buck is going on here?” asks the Nightmare.
“Oh well this jack off here was responsible for a cousin of mine dying in his illegal mines, so now I’m going to cook him up and eat him,” the Brown Dog says nonchalantly.
Blueblood’s squeals are muffled by the apple while Precious sits in a chair nearby wagging it’s tail happily.
“You’re going to eat him?” asks the Nightmare.
“Well I figured, ‘Hey, space trash cans are killing everything else in sight, so why not?’ And seriously, when else am I going to get this kind of chance?”
“We see your point, this pompous moron has always been hated by us.”
“I know right?, anyway, want to wait with me till he’s cooked and have a bite?”
A laser blast hits the wall behind the Nightmare.
“No thanks, we’re in kind of a hurry, We’ll just take a free sushi sample,” it says before proceeding to unhinge it’s jaw and shove Blueblood inside.
He screams in agony inside the Nightmare’s mouth.
“Wow, *Crunch Crunch* we can literally taste the jackass flavor, *swallow*, anyway, so long!” he says jumping out the hole in the wall.
The Brown Dog looks upset.
“Haven’t you ever heard of ‘sharing is caring?!’” he yells as his stomach growls. “Great, now what am I supposed to eat?”
A cracked open Dalek then is thrown into the room, showing the soft fleshy creature inside.
“You, canine, will be exterminated!” it yells not being able to move.
The Brown Dog shrugs, “Eh, better than nothing,” before popping the Dalek into the oven where Blueblood was supposed to go.
“No, nooooo!!!!” shouts the exposed Dalek.
Reaction to the end of the chapter??? Biggest nerd gassum..... So big it would put Bugze to shame
I laughed like mad.
EDIT: Oh, and don't forget! They might have been in Fillydelphia, but in theory the Elementary Capes could still live. IN CANTERLOT AND FIGHT WITH / AGAINST US!
---------
Solarkness POV:
I am running across rainbows, everywhere are pink furless monkeys riding... stuff. I run further, behind me everything withers away.
The monkeys become rotten, and stink. The flowers lose their water and become dry and dead, the rainbow becomes gray...
There is a light. The horizon has a light! I laughed.
I couldn't wait to see how this nightmare would end. Would it end with the Nightmare killing me?
Would it end by him leaving me, or would he rescue me?
The latter would be unlikely, but I couldn't wait.
I focussed my dream on getting me there faster, I had to know! Could I finally die?
I was almost there... I could see his four eyes already!
Dream, tell me, dream: Can I die?
-----
*YOWL*
I fly out of the house, something exploding behind me. I look around, everywhere are trashcans. I shake my head, the other horde-members could have done this.
Oh well, more ways to die. I walk down the street, growling to get their attention. A few hordemembers, four or so, notice me, and ask what they should do. It is the selfproclaimed 'Ragin' Demons'-squad. A bunch of worthless pegasi, I gesture for them to fight the trashcans.
"Well, Solarkness, I know you don't like to talk about it, or cannot since you are mute, but you really stink. Have you ever bathed?"
I snicker internally. Those idiots, they still haven't figured I am a Timberwolf. They all think I have damaged voice-chords. Their problem, not mine. I growl at them while activating the enchanted function of my cape. It was designed to be able to imitate our Master's 'rageeye'.
The capes of the other leaders have that function too. The squad gets the hint and runs away, ironically in the direction with the fewest trashcans. Oh well, no time for that. I need to search my Alpha.
After the Nightmare destroyed Appleloosa, he ravaged in my forest. Everywhere was splintered wood, they couldn't form themselves back, it was horrifying. I hid inside a hollow tree, trying to escape his wrath. Later I found out he killed the rest of my pack, therefore he is the new Alpha.
That is why I joined the Crimson Horde. He probably was just going through, and he had that potential...
I can see Alpha smashing trashcans back there! I have to help him.
As I begin to run towards Alpha, I hear a voice:
"EXTERMINATE!", and also lost all feeling for my tail. I turned around, and saw one of the trashcans pointing one of those pony-things at me. It reminded me of the one that could stick to the wall... the pink thing.
"EXTERMINATE!", this time I am ready to dodge the laser. I jump onto the Dalek, and start tearing it apart. I stopped, and saw that I did almost no damage. This is going to take a while...
While tearing, waiting for my claws to reform, and redoing this procedur, I wonder if I would have joined the Crimson Knights anyways.
I was always fascinated by the potential of the ponies to kill. They could be sooo much better at it than even the most brutal pack-leader. I always wanted to join a group of them designated to kill, and learn a thing or two from them. I had heard from the Crimson Knights. I probably would have left the pack for the Crimson Pack anyways.
Finally I am through the outermost layer, I can now see what is inside...
*sniff*
Is that bacon? PLEASE BE BACON! I NEED BACON! I would join the most two-goodie-horseshoesgroup for bacon! The thought of it alone makes my mouth water...
I run off towards the source of the delicious sme... no, aroma!
--Nearby with the Ragin' Demons--
"Are you sure this is going to get him to help us?", Fast Flier asks.
They are waiting inside a house, surrounded by TWO of those terrifying Daleks!
"Of course it is!", Tactical Genius replies..
Of course, those are not their real names, but the names they have given themselves in their squad.
They heard something crash into something else outside, some shouts of "EXTERMINATE!" and "GET OUT OF MY FACE WORTHLESS CREATURE!"
Suddenly something rushes through the door, and sits down before them. Genius never figured out how Solarkness, a friggin' pony for Luna's beautiful butt, could digest meat and not get sick, but once again it saved their lives.
Solar has saved them for the sixty-third time now.
He whimpers, for once not accompanied by him waggling his tail, looking at the plate with bacon hungrily...
"Sure you can have it. Ugh, this smell..."
6178024 Lightspeed...
Absurd speed...
Preposterous / ridiculous speed!
Look up "Cult Of Skaro" and "Dalek Sec"
6181292 You don't need to know very much about Doctor Who to know about Daleks, they are thin cans that can levitate and shoot death beams from their eye, and also have a shield around them that protect them of most weapons.
Even so I sincerely have the mind in blank. I can't really think about something to put, Well, that is not correct, I think a little but I don't like it, after erase it a couple of times, I decide to pass this round.
When pinkamina died, it was 2 sad 4 me
The Daleks are here ... great. I blame lady luck for this. you tought
"What are they doing here doctor?" derpy asked placeing a hoof on the doctor's shoulder.
"I don't know Derpy all I'm guessing is that they are here to exterminate what's left of Equestria." The doctor repiled backing away form the console, looking down trying to think of away to make it through this mess
"Well look on the bright side at least the Nightmare is still here." you said trying to brighten up this grim dark world.
"How is that a bright side when we have Dalek here." the asked in deadpam voice
"Use your head guys. Nightmare is really powerful he can with stand any Dalek weapon so when they try to destroy him. He will destroy them instead and we rap up where we left off and get the buck out of her. All we got to do is sit back have a few drinks and wait it out until all this blows over." you said thinking that plan might work. Sadly that was short lived.
"There is a problem with that. One he can't see them so how can he destroy them if he can't see them. Second the Daleks would be on top of us in a few seconds and they will kill us all before nightmare can finish them off." The doctor replied.
You then realised the error in your plan. like an light bulb went out inside our head.
you can only summarise this in two words.
"Oh bugger."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My reation to the chapter
1. Pinky's death (Salute and playing the Trumpet)
2. Dalek's arrives (Where screwed)
needs editing ask or changing ask away
*Daleks Arrive*
Reaction: Cue Flight of The Valkyries music!
Archetype - Helix.
Out of everypony to survive.... it's the cabbage pony....
XD
my reaction to the daleks:
YAY MORE EXTERMINATION! I then click to a video of comicon 2013 where 5 of these awesome daleks show up and one of them scares a girl by yelling exterminate and blasting compressed air at her. I want to be a dalek now... but with arms and legs. I always thought they looked funny... oh yeah, and a mega dalek (or whatever they're called [dont blame me, i dont watch doctor who]) shows up
Reaction to the end: We have thousands, if not millions of daleks( or fresh squid) against a self proclaimed god who I don't believe in. Best... Cliffhanger... Ever....
DWC The Grandbuggy part was so funny I would pay to see his reaction to the mare in the moon, sadly she's not there though.
How about Dalek Sec Giving Nightmare Bugzee "The Reason You Suck" Speech
Of course, the Daleks don't know that their weapons are no good, and shoot at the nightmare even though it brings no results. A Kirov Gunship (from the games Red Alert 2 and 3) shows up and attempts to bomb the nightmare, which unfortunately isn't badly fazed.
Nightmare; laughs
He attacks it, but it survives his first efforts to destroy it due to the fact that it's tough.
Nightmare; What? How are you able to survive our attacks!? You're just a gas-filled balloon!
On his third attempt, he finally succeeds in bringing it down... and it crashes right into his face.
As for my reaction... I've got nothing. I haven't seen Doctor Who, and all I know about the Daleks is that they are vicious, evil machines that want to kill all life in the universe. And they have a weakness called stairs.
6181292
6181499
I expected this to happen. I know not alot of you are familiar with Doctor Who, but that doesn't mean you can't comment on something non-Dalek happening. You know you write out a scene with Bugze saving somepony from a cultist or something like that an just say that there are Daleks in the background.
I'm not saying you have to comment now, I'm just pointing this out. Thanks for explaining why through, not alot of people do that for some reason
A bunch of daleks corner Celestia and shoot confetti at the Princess
The daleks all say "THIS DOES NOT MAKE ANY SENSE"
Then Familiar laughter is heard and Discord can be heard "Make sense? Oh what fun is there in making sense?"
As The Nightmare starts tearing through daleks hundreds of them turn around and start attacking him. Amazedly you ask:
- Tjey'd redirect that many for just one being!?
To which the Doctor just replies that "that's barely anything to them"...
Meanwhile in the Vault.
Sapphire Shores is rocking it on and ponies are cheering, headbanging and just about everything else that has to do with raves when suddenly the power goes out.. As the emergency lights activate a loud thumping is heard from the heavy door. It quickly becomes the only sound to be heard in the complex as ponies listen in fear and hope the door will hold. Suddenly the loud thumping is drowned out as the speakers crackle with one word repeated over and over with deafening volume. Panic sprads and soon the loud noise of a door designed to survive falling into the sun being ripped apart fills the complex rogether with screams of ''EXTERMINATE!".
(Feel free to make that play out a little differently)
Kersey is pulling a huge cart full of junk food (mainly burgers of all patties, toppings, and buns) when suddenly a portkey slams into his face and he and the cart disappear in a flash.
APPLEWOOD, LAS PEGASUS
Kersey and his cart finds himself in front of a Neighponese-looking movie palace (curiously, it was the only building left untouched during the Nightmare's rampage) in the ruins of Las Pegasus (half of Smaug's skeleton is right behind him). After adjusting his glasses, Kersey's eyes light up in recognition of the building as he says,
"Could it be..." as he unhitches the cart and opens the door. What greets him is piles and piles of movie reels (the Nightmare collected every movie and serial he could find and stored them all here so he can binge-watch them with "Nightshade" after he's done slaughtering the world). His eyes lightning up at this, Kersey starts looking through the reels and exclaims,
"Collected works of Wheaton! Complete episodes of All in the Herd! Movies by Ford, Scorsese, Beigh! Cinematic masterpieces of the world!"
Kersey starts happily going through all the reels,
"Movies! Serials! All the reels I'll need, all the reels I'll ever want! Speilburro, Adeera, Hitchcock..."
With that he sits down and hugs a bunch of reels to himself in bliss.
"All the movies I want! All the reels..."
=================
"EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMIN-*crush*"
"SHUT UP!!! THAT'S GETTING REPETITIVE!" the Nightmare screams in annoyance before rapidly whipping out his 7 tails (2 have been chopped off and one is being used as a tourniquet/headband for the bleeding holes where 2 of his eyes where thanks to Pinkie's orichalcum knives) and grabs Daleks before viciously slamming them against all hard surfaces with enough force to shatter them as he yells, "SHUTUP-INATE, SHUTUP-INATE, SHUTUP-INATE, SHUT-THE-BUCK-UP-INATE!!!"
After destroying all nearby Daleks, another wave comes in from above, but the Nightmare uses NIGHTMARE GRAVITY IMPLOSION to destroy them all leaving 1 Dalek left...
"Excuse us, but can you tell us if you're a robot or battle armor?"
"WE ARE SUPERIOS LIFE FORMS T-"
"Fine... we'll just figure that out ourselves." the Nightmare says before tearing the Dalek open revealing a little squid-like creature inside,
"Ooooo... A prize!"
"NOOOOO-*chomp*" the Dalek screams before the Nightmare tears him out of the shell and eats him,
"Hmmm chicken-y with hints of psycho and purple... Want some Nightshade?" the Nightmare comments as he takes out the Luna plushie only for Dalek lasers to graze "Nightshade".
In a cold rage, the Nightmare grabs the offending Dalek, smashes it around himself, and then slingshots his tails to launch the Dalek far away...
APPLEWOOD
We now see that Kersey has organized the film reels into categorized stacks and is gleefully talking to himself as he walks through the piles,
"Science-Fiction... Drama... Comedies... Dramedies... This month... next month... next year..."
He then stops to do a giddy happy-dance before saying,
"And I have all the time in the world to watch them!"
He stops as he admires a makeshift diorama in the corner of the theater where the Nightmare had crucified the bodies of Adam Saddler and M. Night Shymalamadingdong while between the bodies is a picture of the Nightmare taking a selfie while Michael Beigh is tied and gagged on top of a huge pile of explosives as a Luna Plushie lies on the detonator,
"Sure, this is God's collection and he's destroying Canterlot, but that's just Equestria. There's still Yakyakistan, Saddle Arabia, Neighpon, and many other nations. Who knows how long it'll take for him to cleanse them all! Even if he does come back early, surely he will be pleased enough at me organizing all this that he'll at least let me live to finish my burgers." the obese Earth pony rationalizes to himself as he unwraps a medium-rare cheeseburger (yeah, it's actual beef, but it's the end of the world so he doesn't give a buck) with mayo, lettuce, tomato, pickles, grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, and white cheddar cheese and takes a messy bite out of it, the juices dripping onto the floor.
"And the best thing... the very best thing of all is that everypony else is dead now. No stupid worthless ponies standing in front of me in line, talking, laughing, or even breathing. No bosses, no co-workers, no professors, no family, no nagging parents, and especially no more of that stupid brown mutt!" he begins to rant like a stallion-foal, "Hijacking and changing all MY plans without even telling me (even though I told him REPEATEDLY why those plans must stay) AND getting the boss to push ME to the side and ignore me! I was a Horde member LONG before that brown bitch!"
Kersey stops his rant and calms down when he reaches the "Action" stack. He quickly wolves down the burger and chugs down a bottle of vanilla cola after it with a belch. He then leans to pick up Marevengers: Infinity War, but he slips on some of the beef juice causing his glasses to fall off and-
*shatter*
"No... It's not fair! I finally had the time, the food, and the solitude. It's just not fair..."
With that, the obese Earth Pony starts to weep over his broken glasses
*CRASH CRUSH SPLATTER*
But Kersey's misery is ended when a Dalek crashes through the roof of the theater and crushes him, splattering the Earth Pony's fat everywhere.
==================
Nightmare spots the Boom Shackalacka Nightmare Knocker Version 2.0.
"George!" the Nightmare cries out in happiness as he picks up the cannon, "NOW we can have some fun..."
===================
A rainbow blast blows through the walls of the castle as the Nightmare strolls in saying, "Bitches love cannons!" before blasting Celestia through a wall with it.
A grey-brown unicorn, severe looking and has an expression of pure panic and frustration, paces in front of a group of ponies. He isn't at all nice to look at, but he is nonetheless one of the leaders of the Occult. All of them are inside the safety and confines of a secure building. The pony speaks, braces visibly showing as he struggles to do so.
"So, folks, we are hiding under this building because we have an entire legion of violent pepper shakers on to our flanks, ready to kill in an instant." Grey Rebl, leader of part of the Occult, stops pacing around in front of the minor followers. "...And why the buck did we separate from the rest of the group again?"
One of the ponies on cloaks raises a hoof. "...Er, because we didn't listen?"
"That's right! And what did I say?"
"'Don't run in only armed with spoons and forks'," another says.
"...and then, somehow, I suddenly had to, of all bucking times, care enough to save you lot and stress over your bucking lives!" the leader shouts exasperatedly.
"Oh, yeah! Thanks by the way!"
"Buck you! You guys ruined everything! This was supposed to be perfect! We rock the place and then we die as proud and contributing members of the hoard! That's how it should be! Perfection!"
"C-calm down! It's not like we'd have to do much work. God would do it for us!"
The grey-brown pony glares at the speaker. "Calm down? Calm down?! You don't tell some pony with OCD to calm the buck down! And don't you bucking ever use that bullspit of an excuse ever again, because God would be dissed for being the Mule of bucking burden in the very End of Bucking Times!
"And most of all: we don't do God's work by sitting on our flanks, lazying all about as your superiors do all the heavy load!" He then went on the pony's face. "Because I certainly don't want to be dead weight again, asking the other leaders for help to take charge of you lot!"
"Oh, come on!" A mare from the group pipes in. "We were doing stuff like you said! We actually helped destroy that one building! Right guys?"
Everypony present, sans the leader, nods in agreement. Grey just growls in anger. He promptly stares down one stallion in particular.
"Then, Ernie, where were you all that time when we needed to move the dynamite?"
"Oh, uh, I needed to use the restroom, so I had Gabon here fill me in."
"And where the buck was Gabon when I was hauling the cursed thing alone?"
Everypony looks at Gabon.
"Ch-charm!" Gabons says to a mare. "I thought you would help with the favor you owed!"
"W-well, I thought Daybreak would help for the favor that SHE owed me!"
So, the blame game practically circles around, and nobody knew who was supposed to end up helping their leader.
Grey rubs a hoof to the base of his horn, hoping to relieve a forming headache. "So for the past few HOURS, everypony did jack squat?"
The mare from previously stutters, "That was only one building—!"
"May I need to remind you all that we're trying to blow up SEVERAL buildings at once? And detonate them at the very end?"
"..."
"..."
"Er, Gray—I can call you Gray Rebel, right?" some pony finally says, "Do you want an apple to help calm you down?"
His fury stills. No, it didn't go away. Instead, the fury became tranquil. And stronger. "Let me tell you something nice..." Grey says. "One: You better have spelled my name right, because my name as of right isn't a bucking typo! And Grey for my name is spelt with a bucking "E"! Not "A"! It gets me pissed! Even more so when even the word of motherbucking God gets it wrong!
"Two: I have braces. You can practically SEE them right now! I can't eat a whole apple, let alone bite!
"Three: I hate apples! They make my throat itch, even with salt!
"Four: Don't you bucking dare talk to me like an idiot or a child!
"And Five: Show some bucking respect! I saved your sorry flanks out there just now! And even before, I had to work my flank off to keep ALL of us afloat thus far, so our bucking God and the other leaders won't have to skin us alive for being 'unfaithful'!"
The pony is just taken aback by his outburst. "I, uh, I didn't know?" he tries.
Grey just stares at the stallion. "Here's the thing: I publicly announce some of those very things—Written and voiced in a rant—, so how the bucking Almighty gods of heaven and Tartarus didn't any of you know this?!"
Silence.
"Didn't you read the Q&A next to the code of conduct?!"
"...Wait, so it wasnt just ramble?"
Grey groans. He mutters, "Why the buck do I have to be leader and be responsible? Why can't I be a henchman where I would at least be useful and supportive to a leader who would actually dedicate much more towards our cause?"
"You say something, sir?"
"Nothing!" Grey yells back. Then, he depressingly utters to himself, "My leadership skills just suck too bucking much..."
With a deep sigh, he looks toward the ceiling. They feel a tremble, obviously the work of the Nightmare. Dust falls from their hiding place, dirtying the already dirty imterior. An ominous moment of silence later, Grey has enough. He stands up.
"Well, buck it. We are all going to die soon. So consider this your last order from me: Run wild."
All the present members grins eagerly at that announcement! Finally! Grey Rebl lets them do something other than follow a strict plan!
"Just so you know..." Grey lifts a Nephi Driver menacingly. "I'd rather die angry...
"So don't get in my way."
----(Later)----
"...I've met a Dalek once. That one can swim," Grey Rebl says. "I never knew what the numbers on him was for... But, nonetheless, you tin cans are not like him. No, not at all!" He stares defiantly upwards at all the floating beings before him. "So, for defiling the image of one of my past friends—by the God of Vengeance, the Nightmare, I will bucking murder all of you all!"
"A Nine-Iron—" Grey Rebl shouts. "—and Nokia Phone Armor in honor to Registered Anonymous!" With that, he swings wildly all round, bashing the heads of Daleks ruthlessly, if albeit uneffectively
He slams a gold statue onto the face of Dalek, bending the long rod that is supposed to be its eye. "Gold for Golden Statue!"
"An arrow to the knee for, uh, some pony... I forgot his name. He might have numbers in them. Buck! I even don't know his face!" He just slams the arrow on hoof to the nearest Dalek.
"A." Clank! "Bad." Clank! "Flank." Clank! "Crow!" Clank! "Bar!" Criiiing! "...in toast for Gordon Freebrony!" With that, he pops open the "lid" of a Dalek and proceeds to pummel the insides with the but of the crowbar.
"And finally... For the last two!" He brought out two things: A razor and a pole with a flag. "An Occam's razor to logikz for Razor the Awesome!" He throws said razor, and, by the blessing of the gods, it somehow cuts through the Dalek shielding and makes an open slit to its armor. And then...
"And a motherbucking flag for Daedaltheus!"
He slams home the flagpole into the opening and spears through its insides, making the Dalek sputter incoherent things out in rage.
"With that said, as for me—"
Suddenly, a lazer unceremoniously hits him. He didn't disintegrate, his Nokia-Phone Armor and cloak took the incineration part of the hit, but the damage is done. His health—his body, after many months of being a part of the Occult, finally fails him.
"Leader, noooo!" Some of the cultists went to his fallen form, cradling him with their hooves.
"There—" he coughs "—there's something I-I wanted to tell you guys..."
"W-what is it, sir?"
Grey stares at them straight in the eyes. "I hated you guys. I hated you guys the most. Oh, and I actually don't believe in God. I think you are all just a bunch of fools believing in Mumbo jumbo. I just joined because I believed in the vengeance and all that crud."
"Oh," one of them says. "Well, Buck you, too. Just die already, jerk."
"Okay," Grey Rebl says, and, finally, his eyes rolls back and his body ceremoniously limps. "Blegh."
"..."
"..."
"...Is he really dead?" one of the asks.
"I don't know, let me poke him just to check."
"I hope he stays dead. That stallion's got issues."
All of the Daleks just simply ignores them and focuses on the Nightmare that is raging all about in their ranks.
-----
...I feel as though this is a confession of my greatest sins and faults. You know what? I'll explain myself. Just to make myself feel better.
I, in fact, always feel as though I were surrounded by idiots, idiots who belittle me and try to "calm me down" as though I myself was dumber than them. For that, I have issues. Anger issues. Well, not to the point of outwardly and openly excessive cursing; All of that swearing happens in my monologue. Sometimes some of it would be brooding over my annoying braces. Communicating is a pain...
I have OCD and I'm a perfectionist. And I panic a lot. If you match these with my other qualities, then you make for a devastating combo. This also ties in to my horrendous leadership skills. And I kid you not, I can never lead a group to save my life. In school, I had to rely on other leaders from other groups for some help. Like, majorly.
I only end up doing most of the work, if because nobody listens to me or because I can't even trust my own team when one of them insults my affiliated race in GDocs, having giggling fits along the way. In fact, I'd rather have a stupid person be leader, just so things could actually get done.
Oh, and I'm atheist. It's a bad thing because it links to my issues (losing friends over religion is traumatizing, dammit!).
Try to go beyond all that, though, I'm a guy who eventually stops giving a damn. Apathy at its finest.
Essentially, I'm a shitty guy IRL.

Wait, did you made a reference on an oldies, one about an avid and dedicated reader trying to find time to read in the reality he lived in, only for that time to be given by a nuclear apocalypse? And then taken away because he lost his reading glasses?
If so... Well, dang.
6184085
Yeah, but look on the bright side, he may not have been able to read, but when he got older he turned to crime and fought Batman, and then he taught Rocky how to box
Daleks begin to 'walk' around Canterlot. Meanwhile in a house, a single changeling with the suit of a general of the horde was playing some games. Around him a couple of green cocoons that have the previous owners of the house.
Just then as the changeling was playing someone called to the door
"Gah, just who is calling now? It must be one of the ones that I sended for a Pizza or maybe for games, or for cake... Sigh, I was hoping to have more time but of course the Offender become crazy... It's not enough a crazy queen that seems to forgot every class about hiding in ponyland 101, now I have a homicidal boss that talk to a doll and want to destroy the world..." Groan the changelling
The changeling pressed pause and put some blankets around the glowing green cocoons, the green glow could be seen from under the blankets but he ignored it. He begin to think and remember. Thinking about how he seemed to be the only changeling more or less sane that survived the pink psycho. And all because after what happened in the wedding, he was busy playing games for a time with somepony called ThousandYearsMoon that seemed a little depressed. But even so, he managed to become one of the generals of the horde.
"Kichi!! Open the door! Hurry!" Shouted one voice in the other side of the door
The changeling groaned, a green fire appeared around the changeling and he was now a white unicorn with dark mane, very similar to Shining Armor except by the color of his mane. After that he peer with the spyhole of the door to see another member of the horde, it was more or less a colt, but still a member. He unlike other generals, liked more the young members, they have more imagination and the best was that nopony believe them. It was one of the multiple reasons he was one of the generals that accepted more colts and fillies.
"What is the password?" Asked Kichi and waited, laughing a little
It was mainly a excuse to annoy the other members of his group, but it seemed the colt did not have time
"There is no password! now open the bucking door or I will not help you to beat that boss in the game of Batmare Arkham Asylum" Say the colt on the other side
Kichi opened the door and the colt enter running in the house.
"Ey, where is the fire?" Ask Kichi
"Maybe everywhere? Can't you see what happen?" Asked the colt
Kichi looked around to see almost every house destroyed, except the house he was in. A group of strange tin cans trowing lasers
"EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!" Shouted the strange cans
"So... Are they related to our crazy boss?" Asked Kichi
"No, they are aliens that want to destroy everything" Say the colt
"So... They are not friends of the boss?" Ask Kichi with a smile
The colt groan, and close the door.
"So... It's seems that I missed something... What about the others?" Asked Kichi
"Those Tin Cans throw lasers and killed some in the Mc Apple, and the videogames shop seemed to be very empty, I think most of them just are hidden waiting for something to happen" Commented the colt
"Crap, another of the general must have the same idea" Groaned Kichi
"So... What's the plan? Let the boss take care of it?" Ask the colt
"Of course" Say Kichi and looked from a window
Meanwhile with Nightmare Bugzee
"EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!" Shouted the strange cans
Nightmare Bugzee was taking care of the tin cans when suddenly a great and big UFO appeared from the sky
"Identify Yourself" Say a voice inside the UFO
"My name is not important, but you can call me, your Nightmare..." Say Nightmare Bugzee
"Yay, Daddy is going to take care of you trash cans" Say Nightshade
"And this is my daughter, Nightshade" Say Nightmare Bugzee
"Scanning... You are talking with a doll... She is not alive and you are making the sound of her talk" Say the voice in the UFO
"She is alive, and I will not let you insult her" Groaned Nightmare Bugzee
"Dark No-Shadow Kick" Shout Nightmare Bugzee as he enter in the UFO
Back with Kichi
Kichi was looking what his boss was doing until he enter in the UFO
"And that is the reason is best to leave other to take care" Comment Kichi
Kichi looked to the colt that was busy playing videogames
"Did you listen what I said?" Ask Kichi
"uhh... No..." Say the colt
Kichi groan and take out another controller
"Well... Let's wait the other, or the boss, the others are currently taking care of Canterlot after all, they knew what to do if something like this happen"
------------
It was the first thing I tought... Any problem and I edit, and yes, Kichi is not very loyal to the boss, after all he is first a changeling, second a member of the horde and third a friki. I was going to put more, but first of all, it's not his house in Canterlot, and he was in there only a couple of hours, waiting for everything.
If there is something I need to add, I edit.
Dangitttttt... A dalek who used to live here died... He was actually nice...
Youuuuuu make the nice Dementor sad...
F@#$ing damnit. Why is it always Daleks?
