> King Sombra and His Loyal Guard > by Abruptshots > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Downfall > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- King Sombra Busy trying to stop Princess Celestia at all costs left one colt in charge of his entire army his name was Thunder Lance he was devoted to King Sombra no matter how bad he was, he lost everything and was poor when he was younger, Sombra gave him a home and food and he is willing to give up everything to protect his king, During regular Routines in the crystal empire he ran into a few problems involving soldiers dying he had no choice but to forget about them and strengthen the defenses of the Castle, When Sombra returned Thunder Lance was Always Overjoyed to see his king and that he was alright. sadly this time when King Sombra returned he was bloody and his cloak torn King Sombra gave Thunder Lance one last Job instead of Protecting the castle You must kill Celestia at all costs, Thunder Lance grabbed his gear and prepared for Celestia's next Assault on The Castle, While Thunder Lance was Waiting He noticed Something Fire In The Distance Countless Soldiers were being massacred Magic was Ripping apart Colts the sound of Screaming could be heard even from the Castle, The Alarm was Ringing and Thunder Lance Jumped into Action. He Ran out of the castle doors only to find Celestia waiting there killing 3 colts Thunder Lance Knew his Friends being ripped apart by Celestia's magic he could hear them all plead for mercy, but they received nothing but Death, Thunder Lance Charged Rapidly at Celestia but it was too Late she casted up a Bubble and Blocked Thunder Lance's Charge and sent him Flying Back, Thunder Lance now Losing consciousness heard The last thing Celestia told him, "You Foolish Colt you cannot stop me, I will end King Sombra, and end his Tyranny," After Thunder Lance heard these words he blacked out. When he woke he saw Destruction and Chaos everywhere dead Colts Populate the Front of the castle defenses in ruins, He stumbled onto his hooves and turned to the Destroyed Gates He peeked inside and Saw the Head Scribe His Organs sprawled all over and his head chopped off and his eyes gashed out, Thunder Lance Vomited at the Site Of once the Head Scribe Now just a mutilated corpse "Do not worry my Friend I will Revenge this Massacre Mark my Words,". Thunder lance Rushed to The Throne Room, but Every Corpse he came past were Guards just like him but now they were just mutilated corpses he cried and hoped they all were safe on the other side he had no time to think of them he must save The King Before it was to late, He finally made it to the Throne Room but it was Deserted Only corpses and destroyed objects were here Thunder Lance knew of one Last Place the King would be now in His Balcony that's where he was most of the time when he watched over his people or to him more or fewer slaves for his empire but that didn't matter to Thunder Lance not one bit at all He must Hurry. After finding the Stair Case to the Balcony he Saw Multiple Dead Colts it seemed like they were Guarding The King in their final hours He rushed pass their corpses to find Pass the doors King Sombra, Battling Princess Celestia Covered in Blood he didn't want to interrupt This Battle it would Be a Disgrace to the King and His Honor he Listened to Every Word Celestia Said Like "Die You Tyrant" and "You will Suffer Like Everyone else did" Thunder Lance was Mad at the words she Spouted he wanted to End Her now and Once and For all. But finally Celestia Casted a Unholy Spell a Burst of Dark Energy came from Princess Celestia's Horn Before it could Reach King Sombra Thunder Lance Charged at Celestia, Both Celestia and Thunder Lance fell off of the Balcony Before Thunder Lance Fell to his Death Sombra was Able to Cast a spell and lift slowly up Thunder Lance, Thunder Lance was Thankful For King Sombra he Saved His life But his Praise was cut Short. Celestia was not dead She somehow survived The Fall King Sombra Prepared To attack but For some reason Celesta's Gaze was not on Sombra but on Thunder Lance, "You Foolish Colt why Guard this Tyrant He Rules over all Ponies in The Crystal Empire, I killed all the guards besides you for a Reason your Stronger then them," Thunder Lance was Shocked he was Just a Simple Loyal Guard to King Sombra But he had to retaliate against Princess Celestia, "You Killed all My friends and you say my King is Bad first of all if you were truly good you would of spared them and not Mutilate their corpses your a monster,". Celestia Was Grinning at Thunder Lance both Sombra and Thunder Lance had a Weird look on their Faces they were both truly confused to why she would be smiling at a time like this, "I see your both Confused well that's good you bastards don't know how good it was to torture those guards ending their lives painfully Especially that Scribe Gashing his eyes out was Pleasure" Celestia had a Blush on her face she was lost in her Sick fantasy King Sombra attacked Celestia while she was in Deep thought, but he was Sent flying into the Air he was knocked out cold. Thunder Lance watched as his Master was Sent crashing into the wall "Hahaha Like that fool could beat me he was only King for so Long I planned this out for So long I am glad to finally be Able to rid him From this world," Thunder Lance was Pissed off he was Prepared to kill her But it was far too late for that Thunder Lance Felt himself Being levitated Off the Ground He Noticed Celestia had a Sadistic Look on Her Face She used Great Force and Ripped off Thunder Lance's Hind Legs Thunder Lance was in great Pain the Agony was Almost too much for The Guard Colt. he was Blacking out, but he Saw Everything being done to him parts of him being Ripped off One of His eyes being Gashed out he was screaming in Agony the entire time, King Sombra Now Knocked out Cold and Thunder Lance Nearly Dead with his one Working eye he saw Celestia Fly Off hear the Last words She will ever tell Him "I'll Let King Sombra Suffer seeing his most Loyal Guard Die in pain" and with that a few Moments past Thunder Lance Lossing Blood Fast. Thunder Lance Hears His King awakens King Sombra Stumbled to his Hooves and saw His Most Loyal Guard and Best Friend on the Ground almost dead, King Sombra had tears in his Eyes Seeing how much pain his friend was in and he could do nothing about it "K..i..ng Som..bra Pl..ea..se for..give me i failed you" King Sombra cried as his best friend and most loyal Guard died he lost everything that was important to him King Sombra Now with Nothing He did the only thing he thought that was actually the only good thing he would ever do in his Life and Jumped off the balcony King Sombra Died on Impact The Memory of Sombra with Everyone in Equestria and Thunder Lance Forgotten By all But Princess Celestia.
