> Spiders and Destiny: Rise of Wolf-Spider > by Funnel Web > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1 Origins Part I. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ‘Princess Celestia’s School for Gifted Ponies,' the one school where you just can’t help but feel like you’re at home. That is, unless you’re a rookie, like a shy pegasus named Midnight Wolf. He had just arrived at the school and it was his first day. “I-I don’t know about this, Mom. What if I don't make it through the first year?” Midnight said, panic evident in his voice. “Don’t worry, Midnight. You’ll do great. I promise” Flora Wolf replied, patting Midnight on the back. “If anything goes wrong, Princess Celestia will be there. Now go along now, Midnight. Love you”. Midnight smiled up at his mother, “love you too, Mom.” Midnight started running towards the front door, but as he passed through the door, he tripped and fell flat on his face. He knew instantly that this first day of school was not going to end well as he got up from the ground and started walking away. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When he made it to recess, he was just sitting alone in the shade, and he didn’t socialize with anypony. He also had trouble flying, as he never learned how to prior to that day. Even though he didn't have many friends, he did have a companion, who equated to a voice in his head. Just like an imaginary friend. “You hear about the new pony that got transferred from Cloudsdale?” A unicorn said, sass prevalent in her voice. “I’ve heard he just arrived today.” “Yeah. I heard he hardly had any friends,” another unicorn said. “I even heard that he can’t fly.” “HA, what a loser.” When Midnight heard those voices, it pushed him over the edge. His fur turned hot red, conveying the anger that raged inside of him. Desperate to prove them wrong, Midnight climbed to the roof of the school and got ready to jump. Everypony at the school went outside, watching Midnight from above. Even Celestia herself even showed up. “MIDNIGHT, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? DON’T DO IT!” Celestia yelled, her voice laced with worry. Midnight jumped and started flapping his wings. During the time, a spider jumped on his leg secretly and held on for dear life. He was sweating all over but managed to get fairly high up. Showing himself behind the sun, he finally proved to everypony that he COULD fly. However, as he struggled to retain his altitude, there was an explosion that resounded through the air. When everypony looked behind Midnight, they found a massive ring of rainbow light passing the sky. The blast was coming right for Midnight, but he was so focused on staying aloft that he didn't see the ring headed for him. Everypony tried to tell him to turn around but that didn’t help at all. “MIDNIGHT, WATCH OUT” Celestia screamed. Her voice managed to reach him and he turned around to look, but was too late. He was quickly caught up in the blast. He started falling to the ground, the shockwave leaving him unconscious. Celestia tried to save him but was too late. He literally crashed into the ground. When the dust cleared up, everypony watched in awe as Midnight simply got back up. The impact had apparently woken him up immediately. “Woah… What happened?” Midnight asked, feeling a little woozy. “Are you okay?” Celestia asked Midnight, searching over him for injury. She was scared but Midnight simply shrugged it off, saying he was going home. He didn’t feel well, like he was going to be sick. He began walking away, not saying a word. As he walked, his fur turned a deep shade of blue. He thought that was a complete waste of his own time and just made a fool out of himself in front of the whole school. But the real question on everypony's mind was how did he survive that blast from the sonic rainboom? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When Midnight got home, he felt woozier then ever. Flora was just cleaning the house, as usual. “Hi sweetie, how was school?” She asked when she noticed him walk in. “I’m not feeling well, Mom. I’m gonna go to sleep” Midnight replied “You sure? You haven’t even eaten dinner yet”. “Uhh...I’m just a little woozy. Everything’s fine”. Midnight headed to his room, closing the door gently. Flora questioned on what was wrong with his son, Midnight, but shrugged it off and figured it was just exhaustion due to the first day of school. When Midnight got to his room and simply passed out. At this point, he was in deep sleep mode. In his dream, Midnight was somewhere in Equestria when he heard something. Midnight turned around and found a pony that rainbow colors all over it. When it looked at Midnight, it gave him that glare with its red eyes. It was clearly getting ready to attack him. Midnight started running. And after a short while, he hid behind a corner, thinking that he’d lost the pony. When it was gone, Midnight looked and decided to catch his breath. But he felt it breathing behind him; he turned around slowly. The last thing he saw was the creature lunging at him. His alarm went off, bringing him into a whole new day. Midnight screamed at the top of his lungs when it went off. But Midnight took in the sights around him and relaxed. “Whew, what a nightmare” Midnight said, sweat all over his body. When Midnight got up, he looked at the mirror to see that he had completely changed. His arms and legs had more muscle, and he felt great. “Midnight, are you alright?” Flora said, knocking on Midnight’s door. “Yeah, Mom. I’m... I’m great” Midnight replied, with a little surprise in his voice. “Well, hurry up. You’re gonna be late for school”. “Right. Okay, Mom”. Midnight was so surprised on how his body had changed; he wasn't sure how to feel about it. He wondered if he went to the gym in his sleep last night. When he tried to comb his hair, the comb instantly broke, like it was thin paper, though this great feeling he was having overpowered the confusion that should have been there. When he got to the living room, even his mother even surprised with her son's new look. “Huh? I thought you were sick, Midnight” Flora said, confusion in her voice. “I got better. Bye Mom, love you” Midnight said, leaving without another word to go to school. To Be Continued...... > Chapter 2 Origins Part II. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- While Midnight was flying to school, he felt a buzzing noise that went off in his head and everything went really slow. Midnight wondered what was happening. He turned around to see another Pegasus coming his way. He moved out of the way and everything went to normal speed. “Woah! What in the name of Celestia was that?!” Midnight wondered, with confusion in his voice. Midnight’s guess was that it was just probably nothing so he kept on flying. Midnight also realized that he was flying pretty fast for a little colt. He never flew that fast before in his life. At an instant, he made it to the school. At this point, Midnight knew something weird was going on with him. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When he made it to the school, all of the ponies instantly started making fun of him. It took Midnight a second but he finally realized why everypony was laughing at him. He made a fool out of himself yesterday. His skin turned blue once again and started walking away, depressed. While Midnight was walking down to his first class, he was interrupted by two ponies that called his name and called him a freak. It was young Filthy Rich and Nasty Cash. They are the spoiled ponies whose parents are rich and are the main bullies of the school and always get away with it. “Well, well, well. If it isn’t the school clown himself” Filthy Rich said, with a sinister smile on his face. “How does it feel, that you’ve turned yourself into the school clown in front of the whole school, yesterday?” Nasty Cash said, with a sinister smile on her face as well. Midnight kept on telling them to leave him alone but they kept on mocking him. Tears were starting to flow out of Midnight’s eyes. He couldn’t take much more insults. But Filthy Rich and Nasty Cash got interrupted by a random voice. “HEY! Leave him alone!” the random voice said, with a little bit of anger in her voice. Filthy Rich and Nasty Cash turned around to see who said that and it was…...young Twilight Sparkle! Princess Celestia’s new prized pupil! She got into the school yesterday after passing an entrance exam. “Well, well, well. First the school clown, now we’ve got the school freak” Filthy Rich said, with so much glee in his voice. “I said...leave him alone” “Oh yeah? What are you gonna do about it, school freak?” But Filthy Rich and Nasty Cash saw it in Twilight’s eyes. There was a lot of rage in her eyes. She gave both of them that sinister glare and they buzzed off. “You okay?” Twilight asked Midnight, with worry in her voice. “Yeah, I’m fine. Thank you” Midnight replied, with relief in his voice. When Midnight looked at Twilight, he was shocked that he started blushing. Twilight asked Midnight what they were talking about. Midnight told her what happened yesterday, about him making a fool out of himself, tried to fly just to prove a point, got hit by a sonic rainboom, got sick, and so on. “Yeah, I know how that feels like. Yesterday, I tried to pass an entrance exam to get here and I thought I was gonna fail. But then a sonic rainboom happened and that overloaded my magic to almost destroying the entire room. But Celestia was able to save me and can teach me how to control it” Twilight said, with grief in her voice. “Huh, yeah. I guess we’re both weirdos of this school, huh?” Midnight asked, clearing up the tears from his eyes and started to smile again. “Yeah, I guess we are. Say, I like you. What’s your name?”. “Midnight Wolf, I’m new here. What’s yours?”. “Twilight Sparkle. I’m new here too”. Twilight offered Midnight a helping hoof up and Midnight took it. When Midnight got up and got a little closer to Twilight, both of them started to blush. Although Midnight did question about the sonic rainboom that Twilight told her but he shrugged it off by calling it a coincidence. On that day, both of them became the best of friends and started walking to class together. That just started a special bond between the “ school clown” and the “school freak”. Sometime later, Midnight went to his locker to grab a few things. When he tried to grab his journal, a thread of webbing shot out of his hoof. Midnight was shocked, to say the least. He could have freaked out but he was at a school and who knows what could happen to him if he got caught. So he found a pair of scissors to cut webbing off of his journal and his hoof, before just walking away. Now he really knew something weird was going on with him. I mean, detecting a pony right past him, him having a few more muscles in his body, that’s not normal. He needed to get home and figure this out himself. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When Midnight got home, he decided to do some research of what kind of creatures have those abilities he had today. When he found something, it was spiders who had those abilities. Spider sense, can lift heavier objects than it’s own body, speed, agility, and durability. After discovering that, he thought that maybe he could create his own costume, like those superheroes in those comic books. His mother didn’t even disturb him, not even one little bit. He looked at the few comic book heroes and their costume design. He had a few ideas. The main colors of his costume were green and yellow. A few colors here and there and… it was done. He had finally created his own costume, plain and simple. But he wasn't not going to be using his costume until he had graduated. He found a few clothes, to make it look like the actual costume and it really was that hard to find. He was all set for his superhero career when he graduates. He hid his costume into a secret hiding place in his room where only Midnight himself knew about. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Somewhere else in Equestria, in a secret laboratory…. “Dr.Stone, please. The pony trials are not ready. Now I’m asking you one last time, we can’t do this!” said Dr.Blaze, with worry in his voice. “Don’t be a coward, Dr.Blaze. This is a part of making a cure for cancer” said Dr.Stone Dr.Stone was really desperate to make a cure, he was diagnosed with Leukemia, a common type of cancer. It prevents the body to fight back against other infections. He was running out of time and this experiment might be his only chance to be cured. Dr.Blaze kept on trying to talk Dr.Stone out of this and wait a little longer. But Dr.Stone said he doesn't have time. He was really, REALLY desperate to be cured. He put the serum in some type of machine. “Dr.Blaze, either you help with this cancer or your resignation?! Either way, I’m testing the serum, now!” Dr.Stone said, with confidence in his voice. Dr.Stone hooked himself onto a machine and was brought into a gas chamber. Dr.Blaze put the serum in and it turned into gas. When the gas entered the chamber, Dr.Stone started screaming, like he was in pain. When Dr.Blaze shut it down, it was too late. Dr.Stone’s heartbeat stopped. Dr.Blaze went to go check on Dr.Stone but his heart was really not beating. But after a few seconds, the machine beeped, showing a few heartbeats. Dr.Stone’s eye opened and threw Dr.Blaze. He sounded different, his voice was really low. He brought out an evil laugh and stole a suit. All of the lights went off. All that was left showing any light was Dr.Stone’s evil red eyes. “Oh, I’ve never felt so good!” Dr.Stone said, with a sinister smile on his face. To Be Continued....... > Chapter 3 Origins Part III. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 3 Origins Part III. Midnight arrived at school. He thought to himself that maybe he could try out some sports. He was off to the gym. When he got there, he saw Filthy Rich and Nasty Cash playing buck-ball, while Moondancer was painting a poster. The ball hit the bucket of paint, knocking it down, spilling a bunch of paint. Moondancer got ticked off. “You did that on purpose, Filthy Rich!” Moondancer yelled, with anger in her voice. “I didn’t, but I should have. You better watch your mouth” Filthy Rich replied. Midnight helped out Moondancer by picking up the bucket. The ball tried to hit the bucket again but Midnight somehow managed to grab it before it hit the bucket. When Midnight had the ball in his hoofs, he decided to have some fun. “Ok, here Filthy Rich” Midnight said while holding out the ball in his hoofs. Filthy Rich went in and tried to grab it. But Midnight kept on juking him and started toying with him. When Midnight was done having his fun, he held out the ball in front of him. Midnight said Filthy Rich he can take it. When Filthy Rich went in and grabbed the ball, he had trouble taking it. “Come on, Filthy Rich. Take it” Midnight said, with a smile on his face. Midnight then tried to make it easier for Filthy Rich by turning around. But Filthy Rich stilled couldn’t get the ball. Filthy Rich was getting furious. Gritting his teeth, he head-butted Midnight but that put Filthy Rich in pain, like Midnight’s head was hard as a rock. Midnight didn’t even felt that head-butt. Nasty Cash rushed in and picked up Filthy Rich. “Wow, Midnight. You really are a clown” Nasty Cash said, before walking away with a hurt Filthy Rich. Midnight didn’t felt right after that, like what he did was wrong. So he ran back home without saying a word. When he got home, we rushed into his room, and jumped on his bed, feeling exhausted. Midnight never felt that confidence in his life. Over the past few days, Midnight felt something that he never felt before in his life. He actually felt special, like he could actually make a difference. “Maybe...it’s time for me to take action?” Midnight thought to himself, with question in his voice. So…..he got his costume out decided to head out. Maybe he could try to take his costume for a test drive. “Mom, I’m heading out for a little while, okay?” Midnight told her mom. “Hold it, mister. We need to talk” Flora replied, with concern in her voice. “What is it, Mom?” “It’s about you Midnight. You’ve been acting weird lately after your first day of school. You’ve became less shy, you’ve become more arrogant, and more selfish. Plus, I’ve heard what happened at school, today. Listen, I know you’re changing, and I know how that feels when you come this far in life. Listen, the pony you become will be the pony you will become for the rest of your life. Just be careful who you’re changing into. Listen, your father once said to me at this kind of situation with these words and it changed my life forever. “With great power, comes great responsibility”. “What are you talking about, Mom?! Are you trying to say that I might become something evil or something?! Plus, whatever happened at school wasn’t my fault! Filthy Rich and Nasty Cash had what was coming to them! They’re the main bullies of the school, I just gave them a taste of their own medicine! That’s all! So just…...just…….leave me alone!” Midnight left the house in anger. He felt like his own mother had turned against her. He put his costume on at the nearest alley and started web swinging. It wasn’t that bad….for it being the first time. He felt like he was part of the wind. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Canterlot was actually beautiful at night. All of the lights, the buildings, he wondered what it was like at Manehattan if Canterlot was like this. He landed at a near rooftop to take a break on the swinging. “Whew, that was...quite fun, actually” Midnight said to himself. All of a sudden, he heard a scream from a mile away. When he checked it out, he saw a burglar trying to rob somepony. Midnight went in and decided to take on this burglar. “Hey buddy! You wanna pick on somepony? Pick on somepony your own size” Midnight said to the burglar. “Kid, just walk along. You’re not involved in this” the burglar replied. Midnight just laughed and walked straight in front of the burglar. When the burglar tried to attack Midnight, he just countered it and gave him a great, big, swinging kick. When the burglar hit the ground, Midnight web shot the purse he had and gave it back to the citizen. When he turned around, the burglar was gone. He shrugged it off and said that his work here is done and swinged away. “That nice kid really needs a better costume than that” said the citizen and she walked away. To Be Continued....... > Chapter 4 Origins Part IV. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 4 Origins Part IV. When Midnight got home, he saw an ambulance, nurse ponies, and royal guards all over his house. He ran over to see what was going on. When he got in the house, he saw his mother lying on the ground with many cuts, bite marks, and bruises. Midnight was shocked of what he saw. “What?! No! What happened?!”Midnight asked, with fear in his voice. “Somepony led some timberwolves in here. Your mother got attacked by them” the royal guard replied. “M-Midnight. Is..that you?” Flora Wolf asked, trying to save as much breath as she can. “MOM! I’m here! Don’t worry, you’re gonna be fine, Mom!” Midnight said, with tears in his eyes. “Midnight….promise me….you’ll always do the right thing”. “I….I promise”. “Midnight, I-I love you, my son….” Those were Flora Wolf’s final words for Midnight. Midnight promised to always do the right thing. Flora...dies in Midnight's hoofs. Tears were flowing out of Midnight’s eyes. Midnight just couldn’t believe it. His only family left just died in his hoofs. “Don’t worry, kid. We got the pony who did this on the chase. He’s heading to the Everfree Forest. We got him” said the royal guard to Midnight. Midnight was filled with rage. He got up and ran off. He ran in the nearest ally and changed into his costume. The stallion web swinged all the way to the Everfree Forest. He followed the footsteps of the murderer and they led to….the Castle of the Two Sisters. Midnight put a sinister grin on his face, knowing that he’s got the pony cornered in the castle. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The mysterious pony was panicking, and was paranoid of his surroundings. He heard a growl, like a timberwolf or any kind of predator was stalking him, but could not locate where it was coming from. The front gate closed, leaving him inside the castle. He panicked and tried to open up the gate again but was grabbed by Midnight from behind. Midnight threw him across the room, with rage in his eyes. With so much fury in his body, he howled just like an actual wolf. The howl was so loud that the Timberwolves heard it and decided to head towards that howl. Midnight knew he didn’t have much time. So he better make this quick. “REMEMBER ME?!” Midnight screamed, with fury in his voice. The murderer tried to crawl away but Midnight just picked him up and slammed him into multiple walls. Every punch, every kick, anything Midnight could use to beat down the murderer was filled with all of his frustration, anger, and misery. All of Midnight’s negative emotions had been unleashed on the pony who killed his mother. He just kept on beating him to a bloody pulp. The murderer tried to crawl away. “Please, don’t hurt me. Just...give a chance” said the murderer, with a little breath in his body. “What about my mommy? Did you give her a chance? Did you!? TELL ME?!” Midnight screamed, putting the murderer in a choke hold. When he brought him to a window, it shined a light on the murderer’s face...revealing a familiar face. Midnight was shocked. It was the same burglar that he didn’t chased after saving that one pony from being robbed by him. The one he should have went after before. “NO! NOT YOU! It can’t be you! I should end you right now! Take away your life just like you took away my mother’s life” said Midnight, preparing to finish the burglar off his a single punch. Midnight went in for the final punch and…….he punched the wall instead. Midnight snapped out of it. He realized that this isn’t what his mother would have wanted. He knew better. He had his chance to finish off the one pony that killed his mother but he threw it away. “No. This is just too easy to finish you off. But I know better. You don’t deserve it” Midnight said in a calm voice. Midnight wrapped the burglar up with his webbing and left him on a street light back in Canterlot for the royal guards to take him away. His mother’s murderer may be in jail, but he’s still missing a mother. Even at school, he was always depressed. Everypony heard what happened, even Twilight. When Twilight found Midnight, she hugged him with tears in her eyes after hearing what happened. “Midnight, I’m so, so sorry” Twilight said, feeling sorry for Midnight. Midnight just simply walked away. Twilight just wanted to comfort him but he refused. She knew that he needed some time alone. But after all of that, Midnight knew that his mother would want him to keep moving forward and always do the right thing. He vowed that he will always do the right thing, use his powers for the good of Equestria, protect those that can’t protect themselves. He promises that he will carry out his life...as the Deadly Wolf-Spider. To Be Continued..... > Chapter 5 First Time in Ponyville > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 5 First Time in Ponyville Midnight was just walking around the school, all depressed. It felt like nothing was gonna make him happy after what happened to his mother. He just shut everypony out on who tried to comfort him. Plus every time when he comes home now, he’s all alone. He just takes care of himself. When Midnight was one the roof of his own house, just trying to forget all of the things that happened with tears in his eyes, Celestia appeared behind him and tried to comfort him. “I miss her alot, today” said Midnight, with depression in his voice. “I know” Celestia replied, trying to help Midnight hold back all of his tears. “I just don’t know what to do. I just feel so lost without her”. “Your mother loved you. You were like her special prince to her. …...Which is why I’m giving this assignment for you”. Midnight turns around to look at Celestia. Celestia used her magic to make Midnight’s costume appear in front of her. Midnight was not surprised that Celestia knew who he was in that mask. Celestia handed Midnight his costume. “Midnight, with your gift, I need you to head to Ponyville and study friendship and defend it from any evil” Celestia said, with a smile on her face. “I know it’s what your mother would have wanted”. Midnight was starting to forge a smile once again and wiping the tears away. He hugged Celestia and thanked her for trying to comfort him. He put his costume in a backpack and headed off to Ponyville, preparing to start a new life and study friendship. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile in Manehattan, The Royal Guards got called in for some kind of attack that happened a few hours ago. The witnesses that some kind of pony-like creature was flying and threw some weird looking bombs in the woods. The guards went in and checked out the bomb site. “Woah! What in the name of Celestia happened here?” said one of the guards, with confusion in his voice. “It must have been a big bomb if the explosion was this big” said the second guard. They heard some weird kind of weird laugh that sounded a little evil. One of the guards question of who did that laugh. But he turned to the other guard and assumed that was him. “Wow! That laugh really sounded good if you practiced for a play or something” the first guard said. “Um, that wasn’t me” said the second guard, with a little worry in his voice. When they turned around, a tiny little ball of metal that looked like an apple landed in front of them. It started beeping and blew up right in front of their faces. The guards went flying and landed back on the ground, badly injured. They couldn’t see what threw that bomb, all they saw was a pony-like...thing throwing another bomb at them while laughing like a maniac. The explosion really injured the guards. They were lucky to be alive and there were a few witnesses. Equestria better prepare itself because this pony seems stronger than expected. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Midnight arrives in Ponyville, with his costume in his backpack. It seemed peaceful. Midnight is prepared to start a new life and study friendship, starting right now. Only problem was that he didn’t know where to start. Midnight see’s a pink pony and walked over to her. “Hey, excuse me miss, do you think you could show me around Ponyville? I..just arrived here and I don’t know where to go” Midnight asked the pink pony. The pony randomly gasped and was gone at an instant. Midnight wondered if it was something he said. He simply shrugged it off and went off to find somepony else to look for directions. So many hours later, Midnight was so exhausted. For some reason, he got a letter and it said to head to the treehouse in Ponyville. When he got there, he figured since he was a pegasus, he’ll go through the window. When he went inside, it was pretty dark. “Sheesh, can somepony turn on the lights or something?” Midnight said in his head. When the lights came on, it went really loud really quickly. Everypony screamed surprise and that literally scared Midnight. Midnight was really confused of what was going on. The pink pony from earlier explained everything. “Hi, I’m Pinkie Pie and I threw this party just for you and the other new pony. You did say that you were new here, right? You must be new-” Pinkie said really fast before being interrupted by Midnight. “Woah, woah woah. Slow down, Pinkie. What did ya mean by the other new pony?” Midnight asked, with question in his voice. Pinkie pointed at the pony at the other side of the room. It was….Twilight Sparkle?! Midnight was surprised that she was here. Although she was surprised that Midnight was here as well, she moaned because she’s been trying to tell everypony about the return of Nightmare Moon but all everypony did was welcomed her in the nicest ways and that really annoyed Twilight. “I see that both of you know each other” Pinkie said with a big grin on her face. “This calls for a PARTY!”. To Be Continued..... > Chapter 6 Wolf-Spider VS Nightmare Moon Part I. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Midnight checks on Twilight who was on the roof of the treehouse. While everypony else was partying downstairs, she didn’t felt like partying. Midnight saw Twilight with a depressed face. He wondered what was wrong with her. So he decides to go up to her and try to cheer her up. “You okay, Twilight?” Midnight asked Twilight. “Yeah, I’m fine. I just need to be alone right now” Twilight replied, with depression in her voice. “That’s not the Twilight that I know and love. You know me. When I make a promise….-” “You keep it. It’s good to see you too, Midnight”. Twilight began to smile again when she turned around and saw Midnight. Midnight went up and hugged Twilight. None of them had seen each other in the longest time. Though Twilight noticed something different about Midnight. “Say, what’s in the backpack, Midnight?” Twilight asked. “Oh, this? Yeah, It’s something I wanted to tell you the last time we saw each other” Midnight replied. “It’s….umm...I…..I don’t know what to say. I……...I can’t say it”. Twilight walked away a few steps. Midnight had to do something. He had to tell her about his secret right now. But then he realized something back at school. “Sometimes, it’s better to show than to tell”. Midnight still had his web shooters on his hoofs. But all of a sudden, Midnight was feeling something in his body. He couldn’t control his movements. So he shot a thread of webbing, grabbing Twilight’s left hoof, spinned her around, only for her to land in Midnight’s hoofs. “Wha-what the?! What-what was.. How did you-” Twilight said in shock before being interrupted by Midnight pressing his lips against hers. Twilight was shocked. Her cheeks were burning red out of blush and so were Midnight’s. Twilight knew she gained strong feelings for Midnight before they left but she never got the chance to tell him. Well, she doesn’t have to, because Midnight feels the same way about her. So, she accepted it and pulled in further into the kiss. “Hey guys, the Summer Sun Celebration is about to sta-” Pinkie said, barging in without knocking and was interrupted by the shock of seeing Midnight and Twilight kissing. Midnight and Twilight departed from the kiss when they got caught. They both took a step back from each other, feeling embarrassed. Pinkie had a grin on her face and knew what was going on. Without anypony realizing it, Midnight’s costume fell out of his backpack. “Um, I see that you two are busy right now. Just letting you know that the Summer Sun Celebration is about to start. But...I’ll just leave you two alone” Pinkie said, with a grin on her face while leaving. Twilight was about to question Midnight about how did he grabbed her from a long distance. But then she saw his costume. Twilight is shocked of what she saw. She picks up the costume with her magic. “Midnight, what is this?” Twilight questioned Midnight. “I was gonna tell you. This…..is my costume. I’m an undercover superhero” Midnight confessed. Twilight was shocked, she was about to shout at Midnight about how dangerous it is but realized that the Summer Sun Celebration is starting. “We’ll talk about this later. We gotta go to the Summer Sun Celebration” Twilight said. Midnight nodded and they were off to the Summer Sun Celebration. Twilight had that “look” on her face, like she knew was what going to happen. Midnight doesn’t know what’s gonna happen but Twilight knows. So Midnight better prepare himself for what IS going to happen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Midnight and Twilight made it to the Town Hall of Ponyville for the Summer Sun Celebration. Midnight looked at Twilight and she was really freaking out. Midnight really wondered why she was acting like this. Feeling concerned, Midnight put his hoof on Twilight’s shoulder. “Are you sure you’re okay, Twilight? You look really worried about something” Midnight said, with a little worry in his voice. Seeing that there is no other option, Twilight pointed at the moon and told him about a being named Nightmare Moon and about her return. But while Midnight was distracted by Twilight talking to him, Rarity saw Midnight’s costume leaning out of his backpack. “Oh, my! Midnight really needs to work on designing this costume. I can’t let him carry that thing around. Don’t worry, Midnight. Rarity is here to fix this” Rarity said in her head. Rarity used her magic to upgrade Midnight’s costume while he wasn’t looking and….POOF! Midnight’s costume is all new and better. Rarity thought she should tell Midnight buuuut…..she can wait. So she walked away from Midnight a few steps, acting like nothing happened. While everypony was waiting for the Summer Sun Celebration to begin, Mayor Mare appeared in front of the crowd, on stage. Everypony stayed silent while Mayor Mare is preparing the Summer Sun Celebration to begin. Meanwhile, Midnight’s buzzing noise goes off in his head and was getting louder by the minute. “Fillies and gentlecolts, as mayor of Ponyville, it is my great pleasure to announce the beginning of the Summer Sun Celebration. In just a few moments, our town will witness the magic of the sunrise and celebrate this the longest day of the year. And now, it is my great honor to introduce to you the ruler of our land, the very pony who gives us the sun and the moon each and every day, the good, the wise, the bringer of harmony to all of Equestria, PRINCESS CELESTIA!” Mayor Mare announced. When the light shined on where Celestia was supposed to be, she wasn’t there. Midnight’s buzzing noise was going off like crazy. He knew something was up. Midnight instantly knew that Twilight was telling the truth. So, while nopony was looking, Midnight headed to the nearest changing room. Meanwhile, a dark smoke starting to come outta nowhere and started to head to the stage. Twilight knew who it was. At an instant, the dark smoke forged into….NIGHTMARE MOON! “Oh, my beloved subjects, It’s been so long since I’ve seen your precious, little sun loving faces. Am I not royal enough for you all? Don’t you know who I am? Does my crown no longer count now that I have been imprisoned for a thousand years? Did you not recall the legend? Did you not see the signs? Why I am your nightmares! I. AM. NIGHTMARE MOON! Remember this day little ponies, for it was your last. From this moment forth, the night..will last....FOREVER!” Nightmare Moon said, with a sinister smile on her face and did her evil laugh. The royal guards tried to stop her but she instantly took them down like little toys. When ponies believed that all hope was lost, one pony pointed out somepony that was swinging out of nowhere. It was the Deadly Wolf-Spider! At an instant, Wolf-Spider gave Nightmare Moon a great, big, swinging kick to the face, knocking her out of the building. Everypony ran outside to see the fight. When Nightmare Moon got up from that kick, she started gritting her teeth. “You dare attack me, mere mortal?” Nightmare Moon asked, with anger in her voice. “As a matter of fact, I do! Where is Princess Celestia?!” Wolf-Spider asked. Nightmare Moon just laughs. Knowing that this mortal has challenged her to a fight, she used her magic to blast Wolf-Spider. But, Wolf-Spider randomly grabbed a mirror out of nowhere and used it to block that blast, sending that blast to the sky. “WHAT?! How did you do that?!” Nightmare Moon asked, with confusion in her voice. “Simple, I’m not just a mere mortal. I’m much more than that. I am Equestria’s newest hero. The Deadly Wolf-Spider!” Wolf-Spider explained. “Then I will show you a fate worse than death, “hero!” Nightmare started charging at Wolf-Spider, but thanks to his buzzing noise in his head, he was able to dodge that attack by jumping really high in the air. While in mid-air, Midnight used his webbing to web shoot Nightmare Moon’s legs, causing her to trip. That just makes her more angry. At the last second, she teleports out of the webbing, appearing in front of Wolf-Spider, giving him a slice of her horn, tearing a piece of his costume. “Uncool! Do you know how much these suits costs?!” Midnight yelled. Nightmare Moon uses her magic to forge a sword, ready to fight Wolf-Spider. She starts swinging her sword at Wolf-Spider but missing every shot. Wolf-Spider did three back flips and was preparing to kick Nightmare Moon in the face again. But Nightmare Moon managed to catch Wolf-Spider while in mid-air. She started swinging him around like a simple rope. She threw him into a building and another and another. Wolf-Spider was really wounded and his costume was pretty torn up. But lucky for him, he had a healing factor. When Wolf-Spider got up, he felt a little woozy. Nightmare Moon was about to finish him off, and started charging at him. When Wolf-Spider snapped out of it and saw Nightmare Moon charging at him. A huge exclamation mark popped up in front of his head. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbeEO58Hlfo) Wolf-Spider grabbed the exclamation mark, seeing a lever on it. He pulled the lever and it revealed a giant boxing glove with a spring popping up and hit Nightmare Moon, sending her flying into the Town Hall building. A random bell went off “DING DING” and Wolf-Spider laughed a little bit. Nightmare Moon teleported out of the rubble of what was once Town Hall, gritting her teeth. “ENOUGH! This is a big waste of time, “hero”. We are evenly matched opponents. If you really want to finish this fight once and for all, then meet me in the Castle of the two sisters. See you there, mortal” Nightmare Moon said before teleporting away. Twilight ran up to Midnight. “Midni-. I mean, Wolf-Spider! Are you okay?!” Twilight asked, with worry in her voice. “Hey, I thought I’m the one who’s supposed to be worried about you” Wolf-Spider shrugged. “Hey, nice suit. That wasn’t like that before” “I know, I was changing into my other suit and I found this other suit in my backpack. It’s like somepony just gave me a big upgrade behind my back”. Wolf-Spider was right, his costume was different. Even though it had green and yellow as it’s main colors, the eyes looked more cool and red. His wings also rolled with his costume, showing yellow and gold, and his front hoofs have twin yellow elbow spikes. Other than the new changes, he really liked the suit but he didn’t know who to thank for it. “But I think we’ve got bigger problems than my new suit, Twilight” Wolf-Spider said. “We need to go after Nightmare Moon!”. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wolf-Spider went to the everfree forest, but not without six other ponies, Twilight, Pinkie, AJ, RD, Rarity, and Fluttershy. They all had to go and Wolf-Spider didn’t stop them. While walking in the forest, they came across a bunch of evil-like trees. Wolf-Spider’s buzzing noise went off and everypony started screaming, well...except for Pinkie Pie. She started laughing. Pinkie explained why she wasn’t scared and Wolf-Spider came up with an idea. He grabbed a microphone from outta nowhere and started talking. “Hey, what a wonderful crowd here, tonight. Where are ya’ll from? …………. Well that’s great. You know, I used to have an ant farm but I had to get rid of it because…..I couldn’t find TRACTORS that SMALL. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_NG1yXT6QY) You know, they should call me an elevator operation, cause I’m bringing you down. Or tonsils, cause I’m a pain in the neck? How about both?”. Pinkie started to chuckle. The other ponies were started to forge smiles on their faces. Apparently that those puns were so terrible that it was adorable, the ponies bursted out laughing and all of the trees with scary faces disappeared like balloons popping. But that was not all of the tree’s. So for Wolf-Spider’s grand finale, he pulled his mask up to his mouth and threw his mic in his mouth. You could hear the rumbling of his stomach. At an instant, he burped really loud just like Mike Wazowski in that one scene. That really made the ponies laughing really hard that they started crying. “I’d give myself a ten for style on that one” Wolf-Spider said. To Be Continued..... > Chapter 7 Wolf-Spider VS Nightmare Moon Part II. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wolf-Spider and his friends had gotten closer to the castle by the minute. They’ve past every obstacle that got in their way. From helping Fluttershy cheering up a manticore by removing a tac that was stuck in it’s paw and using his webbing as a band-aid and put it on the manticore’s paw, showing kindness, helping AJ holding on to Twilight from falling and having Twilight believe that there was something at the bottom that will catch her, showing honesty, and helping a sea serpent with Rarity by cutting off her own tail and having his webbing stick on to the sea serpent's mustache, showing generosity. But the worse is yet to come. “Hey! Over there! It’s the castle. It’s just between this…….gap” Wolf-Spider said, pointing at the castle. Rainbow Dash saw that there was a bridge but needs to be tied up on the other side so she volunteered to fly over there and fix the bridge. Wolf-Spider went with her too. They both flew at the other side of the gap, preparing to fix the bridge. But suddenly, a strange fog started appearing out of nowhere, Wolf-Spider and RD couldn’t see each other. The buzzing noise started going off in Wolf-Spider’s head really loud that it started giving him a headache. It started to hurt him. Wolf-Spider heard a voice from a distance. “Wolf-Spider………”. When he turned around, he saw….his own mother! Wolf-Spider stands there in shock. His own mother is standing in front of him. “Mom?! But…..you died!”. Wolf-Spider wanted to believe it, even the buzzing noise wasn’t going off. “I need you to step into the light. Your father and I have been waiting for so long”. “Wolf-Spider, don’t do it! It’s a trick!” Twilight said before the fog cleared everything around Wolf-Spider and RD. “Please, don’t leave us, Wolf-Spider. Please, reunite with your family” Flora said, offering Wolf-Spider her hoof. Wolf-Spider went in, ready to grab his mother’s hoof. But then he realized something. She didn’t call him by his real name. So he knew that this was a trick. So he decided to play along. “I’m sorry, Mom, but…...I already have a new family. My friends are my family. Plus, you didn’t call me by my real name. So….goodbye”. Wolf-Spider flew and fixed the bridge. The illusion that was supposed to be his mother disappeared without a trace. RD fixed her side of the bridge and they both flew back to their friends. This proves that Wolf-Spider and RD are loyal to their friends til the end. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When they made it to the castle, Wolf-Spider told the girls to stay outside because it could be dangerous. But….Twilight came along because she’s an expert on the elements of harmony. Wolf-Spider didn’t stop her so they went inside the castle. When they saw the elements but the problem was that they were stone. Twilight go closer to see if she can fix the elements and a blue smoke started to appear out of nowhere. Wolf-Spider’s buzzing noise goes off. “TWILIGHT, LOOK OUT!” Wolf-Spider said, tackling Twilight. Wolf-Spider was lucky to save Twilight. That blue smoke felt really shark and it sliced a piece of Wolf-Spider’s costume. Wolf-Spider complained “Oh come on! Can my suit get any more damaged than it is?!”. Wolf-Spider turned around and saw that the blue smoke forged into Nightmare Moon. “YOU?! AH! Don’t you ever give up?!” Nightmare Moon yelled, gritting her teeth. “Sorry, but I’m not used to giving up my home to alicorn maniacs” Wolf-Spider shrugged. “Think about it, “hero”. How can you defend these mortals with this kind of power when the whole world is yours? Are you in, or are you out?”. “Sorry, but I’m not ready for that kind of offering” “WRONG ANSWER!” Nightmare Moon used her magic to create bat-like boomerangs and threw them at Wolf-Spider. Wolf-Spider yelled “HEY! You can’t do that! Those are copywritten!” before dodging all of the batarangs. Nightmare Moon was getting furious. So she used her magic to shrink herself into Wolf-Spider’s size and landed three punches. When Nightmare Moon went in for the fourth punch, Wolf-Spider caught her hoof and countered it. Wolf-Spider uses his webbing to grab Nightmare Moon’s legs, causing her to trip. Wolf-Spider grabs a giant box from outta nowhere and places it on top of Nightmare Moon with her inside of the box. “Let’s see here. Screw a bolt here, lighten a bolt there and…..POP GOES THE WEASEL!” Wolf-Spider said before twisting a lever, causing Nightmare Moon to pop out of the box and hitting the ceiling. She landed hard on the ground. She started gritting her teeth and started charging at Wolf-Spider. Wolf-Spider punched her, pulled her back and punched her again, which sends her flying across the room. Wolf-Spider runs under her, grabs her by the neck and finishes this fight with an RKO. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vyy8NqjCSh4) Wolf-Spider stands in front of Nightmare Moon, with his costume torn up from top to bottom, showing one of his eyes on his mask. “You will never conquer Equestria, Nightmare Moon. A wise woman told me with great power comes great responsibility. I made a promise to protect this world and I will not let you take it away from these ponies. You’ve lost” Wolf-Spider said, with confidence in his voice. Nightmare Moon is furious. How could she lose to a mere Pegasus?! But she had a plan. She used her magic blast Twilight Sparkle, knocking her across the room. With the stallion distracted by Twilight, Nightmare Moon grabbed his mask at the last possible second, revealing...Midnight Wolf. Nightmare Moon is shocked. Wolf-Spider is just a mere boy. So, she teleported to the elements of harmony, ready to destroy them once and for all. But Twilight got up and tackled her, causing her to teleport to the other side of the castle. The other ponies ran inside of the castle, checking on Wolf-Spider and Twilight. When they made it, they saw Wolf-Spider without his mask. “Wolf-Spider, are you alraaht” AJ asked, with worry in her voice. “Oh my goodness, the costume! It’s all ruined!” Rarity said, with frustration in her voice. “Forget thuh costume, what about 'im?” “Oh, right. Him. Though I have to say, he does look pretty handsome for being a big mess” “(sigh) Sugarcube, where's twilight?” Midnight gets up in realization that Twilight is gone. Midnight starts freaking out and senses that Twilight is at the other side of the castle with Nightmare Moon and the elements. Midnight puts his game face on and tells the girls to come along, he knows where she is and they are gonna finish this fight. It’s time to finish it! To Be Continued..... > Chapter 8 Wolf-Spider VS Nightmare Moon Part III. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight wakes up, having a major headache. When she looks straight, she saw the elements of harmony shattered into pieces with Nightmare Moon on top of them. Nightmare Moon just laughs. “You little foal, thinking you could defeat ME?! Now you will never see your princess or your sun. The night….will last…..FOREVER! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!”. When Twilight was about to believe that she lost, she heard her friends heading her way. Twilight realizes it after all of this time. The answers were right in front of her all along. She saw the spark when she realized the answer. She turns back around to Nightmare Moon. “You think you can destroy the Elements of Harmony just like that? Well, you’re wrong. Because the spirits of the Elements of Harmony...are right HERE! Applejack, who reassured me when I was in doubt…..represents the spirit of HONESTY! Fluttershy, who tamed the manticore with her compassion….represents the spirit of KINDNESS! Pinkie Pie, who banished fear by giggling in the face of danger….represents the spirit of LAUGHTER! Rarity, who came to a sorrowful servant with a meaningful gift….represents the spirit of GENEROSITY! And Rainbow Dash, who could not abandoned her friends for her own heart’s desire….represents the spirit of LOYALTY! The spirits of these five ponies got us through every challenge you threw at us!” The shattered pieces of the Elements of Harmony started to float around the five ponies. Nightmare Moon was getting worried. She didn’t knew what to do. Midnight saw the ponies and saw that all six had become something special. “You still don’t have the sixth element. The spark didn’t work!” Nightmare Moon said, with fear in her voice. “Oh, but it did. A different kind of spark” Twilight replied, with realization in her voice. “I felt it the very moment I realized how happy I was to hear you, to see you, how much I cared about you. The spark ignited inside me, when I realized that you all….are my friends!” Suddenly, a spark ignited from the ceiling. It was the sixth element! It shined on everything around it. As soon as Twilight realized the answers were right in front of her, she knew what was the sixth element. Midnight walked in front of Twilight, with his game face on. “You see, Nightmare Moon, when those elements are ignited by the…….the spark, that resides in the heart of us all. It creates the sixth element. The element of….MAGIC!” Midnight said, pointing at Twilight. Just at that moment, the shattered pieces of the elements forged into different necklaces for each of the five ponies. The sixth element transformed as well, but into a crown instead. Each of the elements had the girl’s cutie mark on them. Just then, a huge rainbow flows on top of the girls and hits Nightmare Moon. “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!” Midnight saw the rainbow around Nightmare Moon. With his final words for Nightmare Moon, “Flame on, kid”. He thought it would be the perfect time to say that. All of a sudden, a huge explosion happened and when Midnight got up, he saw that it was finally over. Midnight ran to go check on Twilight. “Twilight, are you okay?’. Twilight used all of her pony strength to get up. “Yeah, nothing but a good headache won’t fix”. Everypony else looked okay as well. Rarity saw that she grew a new tail and was more pretty than it was before. She seriously went gaga over it. But when she looked down on her chest, she saw that she had a necklace on and it looked like her cutie mark. The other five ponies had necklaces as well. Well, except for Twilight and Midnight. Twilight had a crown and Midnight didn’t get anything at all but he didn’t care if he got something or not. They heard a voice from a distance. When they looked at a window, they saw that the sun came up. A spark appeared from the sun and landed right on front of the ponies. The spark disappeared, revealing….PRINCESS CELESTIA! Everypony bowed before Celestia. Twilight was shocked and happy at the same time. “(gasp) Princess Celestia!” “Twilight Sparkle, my faithful student. I knew you could do it”. “But….you told me it was all an old ponytale” “I told you that you needed to make some friends, nothing more. I saw the signs of Nightmare Moon’s return and I knew it was you who had the magic inside to defeat her. But you could not unleash it until you let true friendship into your heart. Now if only another will as well”. Celestia walks up to the remains of Nightmare Moon that revealed Princess Luna. Luna wakes up from from that explosion. “Princess Luna, it has been a thousand years since I’ve seen you like this. Time to put our differences behind us. We were meant to rule together, little sister”. Everypony got confused when Celestia said “sister”. But they’ve figured it out a few seconds later. “Will you accept my friendship?” Celestia offers Luna. Luna rand to Celestia, hugging her at the process. “I’m so sorry. I’ve missed you so much, big sister” Luna said, with happy tears in her eyes. Celestia replied “I’ve missed you too”, shedding a few happy tears in the process as well. Pinkie started bursting out millions of tears. Rarity walked behind Midnight and asked him “Excuse me, mister. I believe that you might need this” offering Midnight his mask. Midnight took his mask with a smile on his face and told her to just call him Midnight. “You know, Twilight couldn’t have done it without you, Midnight” Celestia said behind Midnight’s back. “Yeah, all in a day’s work I guess” Midnight replied. “She still needs you. Go to her”. “R-really?”. Celestia nodded yes and Midnight ran to Twilight. Twilight turned around to face Midnight and they were already blushing. Both of them felt embarrassed but their friends didn’t care. There was no need to feel embarrassed at all. They were perfectly okay with it. “I guess we did it, huh?” Midnight asked, while his face turned pink. “Yeah, I guess we did” Twilight replied, with her face turning pink as well. “You know, I was wondering...do you wanna...you know...catch a movie or something?” “I’d love to”. Twilight leaned closer to Midnight and pressed her lips against his. Midnight leaned in further into the kiss. Both of them might have been different in many ways, but they didn’t care anymore. As long as they had each other, nothing else mattered. When they departed from the kiss, they saw that all of their friends smiled. They were all proud of both of them, even Celestia and Luna were proud of them. Midnight walked over to Luna. “Hey, um...sorry about the whole....you know...me fighting you and all of that” Midnight said. “All is forgiven. You’ve done what you thought was right and that’s all that mattered. I forgive you” Luna replied. Everything was right with the world. Nightmare Moon was gone, Celestia was reunited with her sister, Equestria was saved, Midnight and Twilight are now dating. Also, Rarity got to fix Midnight’s suit. Equestria is safe….for now. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile somewhere else in Equestria, the pony-like creature was in his lair, upgrading his suit in the shadows. But Something catches his attention. A type of scent catches his attention. He smells out the scent. “Mmmmm. Smells good. I love it!” The creature just laughs at the scent. Looks like he’s ready to head to Ponyville. He needs to track down that scent. He justs laughs at the fact that he might finally get a challenge. He laughs like a maniac as the lights remaining shut down. There was no light left, except the red eyes of the creature with an evil smile on his face. To Be Continued..... > Chapter 9 Blast From The Past > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Many weeks have passed since the fall of Nightmare Moon. Midnight brought his torn up costume to Rarity’s so she can fix it. When Midnight returned to the tree house, he saw Twilight working on a chalkboard with a lot of scientific symbols with a lab coat and goggles. Midnight questions what was Twilight doing. “Um….Twilight? What are you doing?” Midnight questions Twilight. “It came to my mind lately, Midnight. I remember that you’ve told me that an explosion caused you to have your powers. So I was wondering, can I take a sample of your blood?” Twilight asked, removing her lab goggles. “You know, I did wonder how did an explosion cause me to have my powers. Sooooooo….yeah, sure. Why not”. Twilight took the blood sample and examined it in a strange computer. It took a few seconds but when Twilight saw what was the cause, she gasps in shock. She examines the cells to see what makes them tick. “Oh my Celestia! I’ve never seen anything like this. It’s amazing!” Twilight says in shock. “What? What is it, Twilight?” Midnight asks Twilight. “It’s your DNA. Your encounter with the explosion must have altered your DNA. Normal for what I could find, an explosion on how you have explained sounds like a Sonic Rainboom and it can break through solid rock and shake entire mountains. But somehow there was a different effect on you when you got caught in it. So when the sonic rainboom went through you, it must have mutated your body cells and altered your pony DNA and somehow gave you spider DNA. But my only question is why spider DNA?” “Sooo...do you know what kind of chemicals a sonic rainboom has? Maybe if we find the right chemicals, we can find the source of my powers?”. “Wow. I’ve…...never even thought about that”. Just then, Rainbow Dash barges in outta nowhere and crashes. When the dust cleared from the crash, everypony was buried in books. Midnight uses his strength to bring his hoof out of the pile of books and starts swinging around a white flag. Twilight and Rainbow Dash get up from the pile of books. But when Midnight tried to get up, he accidentally grabbed the nearest bookshelf which had a mysterious potion in a bottle. When the potion landed on Midnight’s head, stars started flying around his head while making tweeting noises. But after a few seconds, Midnight disappeared in just a POOF. “MIDNIGHT! Twilight, what was in that bottle?!” Rainbow Dash asked, with worry in her voice. “Um…..a teleportation potion mixed with a time potion” Twilight replied, her heart sinking. Twilight and Rainbow Dash started screaming at the top of their lungs now that Midnight disappeared and they don’t know when or where he is now. Midnight better ended up in a safe place, because he could teleport anywhere by now. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Midnight wakes up after that teleportation. When he get’s up from the floor, only to find himself in the Canterlot Castle. It was night time as well. Midnight wondered if that potion led him to the same date but later at night. “Oh please tell me that I didn’t went back in time. If I did, then this potion better wear off soon” Midnight said, feeling annoyed. But when things couldn’t get any worse, two guards were coming around the corner. Midnight had to think fast but realized that he can change his skin color. He just has to think sneaky. His skin turns clear, turning him completely invisible. If he was in time or not, he’d rather not take the risk to find out. If he changes anything, who knows what could happen. Midnight tries his best to sneak out of the castle and find a place to hide until the potion wears off. But when he walked past Princess Celestia’s room, he heard somepony…......crying? Yet, curiosity got the better of him, plus he was still invisible so he went and checked it out. When he peeked through the door, he saw Princess Celestia in her bed crying. She looks at the moon, with tears flowing out of her eyes. “I miss…..I miss you!” Celestia said to the moon, yet with more tears in her eyes. That’s when it hit Midnight in the head. He’s back when Nightmare Moon was on the moon. Yet, when Midnight saw Celestia acting like this, he gained a flashback. Celestia reminded of Midnight himself when he was a little colt. Midnight saw himself in Celestia. She lost somepony that was her family, same thing happened to Midnight, losing his mother. Midnight feels like he should do something. “M...maybe this won’t change anything. I mean, it’s only comforting somepony so no harm will be done for the present, right” Midnight whispered to himself. Midnight really didn’t want something that happened to him happen to anypony else. So…..with him still being invisible, Midnight sneaks in, wall crawls on the ceiling, hanging upside down behind Celestia. Midnight uses his webbing to create a tissue made out of webbing. Celestia looks behind her, Midnight turns his skin normal, making is visible for Celestia to see him, and offers Celestia the tissue. Celestia starts to forge a smile, taking the tissue and says “(sniff) Thank you”. Midnight nods his head and seeing his body is starting to fade away. The potion must be wearing off. Well, at least he saved somepony today….well mentally, anyway and Midnight disappears in a blink of an eye. When Midnight gets up, he finally knows that he’s back in the library. Twilight and Rainbow Dash hugged Midnight, knowing that he came back in one peace. “Wow, did everypony missed me that much?” Midnight said, with a little humor in his voice. Twilight explained that while Midnight was gone, she tracked down the source of Midnight’s powers. Turns out that Rainbow Dash had performed a sonic rainboom a long time ago when she was a filly. That explained where did that sonic rainboom come from. RD knowing that it was her fault that Midnight got his powers, she walked up to Midnight with tears in her eyes. “I’ve done a terrible thing to you. I’ve made you lose your normal life. If it wasn’t for me……(sniff sniff) You would be living a normal life right now! I’m so...so...sorry. It’s all my fault” Rainbow Dash said, crying a few tears in the process. Midnight now realizes that it was because of Rainbow Dash that he got his powers. Even though she was right, Midnight didn’t care. He walks over to Rainbow Dash and comforts her, shedding a few tears as well. Midnight knew that just blaming her would be the wrong thing to do and he knew better. Plus she didn’t knew. “I've done terrible things, too. What happened a long time ago was not your fault. You didn’t know what could have happened. You’re my friend, RD, and nothing will change that. I’m not mad at you. We make mistakes in our lives. But I do know this. When you join the Wonderbolts, you’re going to be the best out of all of them...…...I forgive you” Midnight said to RD, shedding a few tears and forging a smile. Twilight was starting to shed a few happy tears as she watched the one pony she fell in love with had given comfort to another pony. This shows how much of a heart Midnight has inside him. So…..Twilight joins in the group hug. Midnight has managed to comfort royalty and his friend in one day. This just proves that Midnight truly has the magic of friendship inside him. To Be Continued..... > Chapter 10 Advice From Rarity > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Grand Galloping Gala was right around the corner and Midnight just asked Twilight out to go there as a date. She accepted and that got Midnight really pumped up. But the problem was that Midnight didn’t know what to do when that happens. So he contacted Rarity that he’ll be heading over to her place for some help and advice. When Midnight gets there, Rarity lets him in. “So Midnight, what is it that you need help with?” Rarity asks Midnight. “Yeah….about the Gala...I wanna take Twilight there for a date and..I need help. She said yes but the problem is that I don’t know what to do. Like, what if she will expect me to wear something nice? What if I pick up the wrong kind of utensil for soup or something?” Midnight replied, feeling really worried. “I see your problem, darling. I can help you, but on one condition: you must remain here, don’t run away because I’m gonna teach you the most difficult things to do. They will bring you past your limits. Are you sure you want me to help you, darling?” “........................Yes!” ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ten minutes have passed, Rarity had made a testing room for Midnight. She even brought out a fake ruler stick and a dummy from her closet for situations. She used her magic to put a table in front of Midnight. “Seduce me” Rarity said. “Wait. WHAT?!” Midnight asked, in a confused voice. “Seduce me”. “Rarity, no. I’m not gonna-” “SEDUCE ME!” “Okay, okay!. (cough) Hey….um…...good looking. I got a cup of apple cider-” Rarity uses her magic to grab the fake ruler stick and hit Midnight on the top of his head. It might have been a fake but it still hurt. Midnight shed one tear before yelling “OW! What the?! What was that for?!”. Rarity used her magic to grab the dummy and replied “Why. I. Never! I’m not one of your apple cider liking ponies! I am a woman. I like my colts dangerous, mysterious! You want to be my special somepony?! Earn it! Seduce me!” before using one of the dummy’s hoofs to slap Midnight across the face. Midnight didn’t knew that Rarity’s guidance for dates were like THIS! At an instant, he just realized she just did a reference to a Team Fortress 2 short called “Exploration Date” and she didn’t even realized it. Well, only Midnight knows it because he has the power to break the fourth wall. He said to himself in his head “Ok. I see where this scene is going, now. Cue the teaching montage” as he sighed, ready for Rarity to continue on teaching him. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Four hours later, Midnight was really starting to get the hang of it. Rarity taught him almost everything she knows: dancing, using champagne, opening the door for the date, etc. Midnight was almost done. There was only one final test. The room was dark, only one light was shining and it was shining on Midnight. Rarity steps forward in front of Midnight. “Final question, for your date, what time do you arrive?” Rarity asks Midnight. “6:30, sharp, always bring flowers, kiss her left hoof, make sure I have hair gel on and a nice suit, open the door for the date while on a vehicle (Ladies first. Number One rule in the book). For food, must pay with my own money, can’t let the date pay, not even a little bit. If I do, she’ll get annoyed. Always take her home, if interested enough, always get the first kiss on the second date (well, I already got my first kiss from her when I moved here but still)” Midnight answered. Rarity smiles and says “You’re ready, darling”. Midnight thanks Rarity for her guidance for dating, she was right, she did push his dating skills to their absolute limit. But it was all worth it to be ready. Rarity also finished fixing Midnight’s costume. Midnight hugs Rarity, thanks her, and leaves. He has a gala to prepare himself for. > Chapter 11 At The Gala > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tonight was the big night. It was Midnight’s first date with his marefriend, Twilight Sparkle. Thanks to Rarity and her guidance, he is more than ready for his date. He had hair gel, cologne, flowers, and best of all, a really nice suit. Though just in case something really bad happens at the Gala, Midnight hid his costume under the suit he’s wearing right now. Midnight and the mane six make it to Canterlot, ready to celebrate the Grand Galloping Gala. Midnight just hopes that nothing will ruin this night. When they made it to the Gala, Everypony went their separate ways. Rarity left to find her “true love”, AJ left to go set up her apple store, RD left to go find the Wonderbolts, Pinkie Pie went to the ballroom, and Fluttershy left to go to the animal garden. Twilight stayed with Midnight. This night can’t be ruined, not as long as Twilight is with Midnight. But when they make it to the dancing room, things are about to go downhill. The ponies were pretty rude, acting like that they are superior than normal ponies. Midnight gets annoyed. “Ugh, RUUUUUUUDE!” Midnight said in his head. “You okay, Midnight? You don’t look too good” Twilight asked. “Nono, it’s fine. I just wasn’t expecting THIS. I can’t say that I like it. But it doesn’t matter, as long as I’m with you”. “Aaw, Midnight. Stop. You’re embarrassing me”. Twilight blushes. So far, so good. Their date is going pretty well, besides everypony else being rude and arrogant. Twilight starts to lean closer to Midnight, ready to kiss him. Midnight leaned in closer, but was interrupted by the buzzing noise in his head. “What is it, Midnight?” Twilight asks, feeling confused. Midnight looks around and when he looks down, he sees a random zap apple in front of their hoofs. Midnight got confused of why was there a zap apple here. It was not that kind of season yet. Twilight was confused as well. She leaned in and tried to grab the zap apple. Midnight’s buzzing noise goes off like crazy and realizes that the zap apple is making beeping noises. Midnight tackles Twilight away from the zap apple. The zap apple was beeping super fast that it exploded. The explosion tore Midnight’s nice suit a little bit. “Oh come on! This suit was a rental!” Midnight complained. Everypony was wondering where did that explosive zap apple came from. Everypony started to hear….some kind of sinister laugh. Nopony in the room was laughing. Midnight’s buzzing noise was really going off like crazy. Midnight hears a sinister voice and turns around to see…..a pony?! The pony looked like a colt, his wings looked mechanical, had a bag of explosive zap apples, evil red eyes, razor sharp teeth, and was purple. But there were a few parts of him that were green such as his ears, neck, and back hoofs. The mysterious pony just laughs. “Good news everypony. Equestria’s gone PURPLE! Say hello to the new big pony of crime: The Arch-Goblin! HAHAHAHAHAHA!” t he just laughs and says “(tick tick tick) You shouldn’t be up this late at night, you could get bags under your eyes” as he threw a zap apple filled with sleeping gas. The guards and Celestia Everypony starts screaming in fear while Arch Goblins flies over to the stage and grabs the microphone. “Oh don’t be afraid, everypony. I’m not here to hurt you, well...not yet anyway. But I’m terribly sorry but I’m afraid that your co-ruler Luna can’t come to the Gala tonight. She’s a bit….TIED UP! MmmmHmhmhmhehehehahahaha! You’ve gotta love the classics. But all I want from all of you is your undying loyalty to me...or the dying kind. The Arch-Goblin is nothing if not flexible”. Arch-Goblin gets interrupted by a voice that said “You know, for being a crazy lunatic, you surely laugh too much” before getting a hoof to the face, sending him flying across the room. It was Wolf-Spider! “As these ponies savior, I would like you to leave, and that is an order” Wolf-Spider said. “Oh, but the Arch-Goblin does not take orders from bugs. The Arch-Goblin swats them into oblivion!”. “Bugs?! Now that’s just insulting! Spiders are not bugs! They are arachnids! There’s a huge difference!”. But then, Arch-Goblin was about to say something but got interrupted by a random voice that said “He might be offended by that, but I’m not” before Arch-Goblin gets a hoof to the face. It was Rainbow Dash! “RD! What are you doing?! You need to get outta here! You’re gonna get hurt!” Wolf-Spider shouted. “HA! And let you have all of the fun? Not a chance” RD replied. Arch-Goblin gets up from that kick and just laughs. Arch-Goblin points under both Wolf-Spider and RD’s feet to see a zap apple, ready to explode. Both of them jumped out of the way. Arch-Goblin gets his mechanical wings working again and starts flying away, laughing. Wolf-Spider told RD to stay and make sure that everypony is okay while goes after Arch-Goblin. RD nodded and Wolf-Spider went after Arch-Goblin. Arch-Goblin finds Wolf-Spider catching up to him. “Ah, so you’re a chaser, aren’t you? Well, try to keep up with a bulls-eye on your back!” Arch-Goblin said, laughing and throwing more zap apples at Wolf-Spider. Wolf-Spider dodged as many zap apples as he can, he took a few explosives but that didn’t stop him. Wolf-Spider got closer and closer, until he caught Arch-Goblin, webbing him up on a building, about to leave him for the guards. But Arch-Goblin just laughs. “Now what’s so funny?” Wolf-Spider asked, feeling annoyed by that laugh. “Just the special fire and brimstone zap apple I left behind as a present for our Princess Celestia. Any minute now, the ruler of Equestria will paint the town with rainbows! ….Well, the ballroom anyway” Arch-Goblin replied and started laughing again. Wolf-Spider was shocked of what Arch-Goblin just said. He needs to hurry. Wolf-Spider leaves but when he turned around, Arch-Goblin was gone. He got confused. Where did he go? But Wolf-Spider doesn’t have time for that. He needs to head back to the gala and stop the zap apple from exploding. When Wolf-Spider made it back to the gala, he spotted the zap apple, grabbed it and left. He kept on searching for the nearest place to throw it without anypony getting caught in the explosion. Seeing no ocean, he had an idea. He flew high up in the air and once he was high enough, he threw the zap really high up in the air, almost reaching outer space. Wolf-Spider flew away as the zap exploded, but he wasn’t far enough. He could have died if didn’t fly away from the zap apple at all. The explosion damaged his costume, and knocking him unconscious. With him knocked out, he can’t save himself from falling. Just when he was about to meet his demise, something caught him. It was some kind of blue magic. It was Princess Luna! She managed to escape Arch-Goblin’s trap just in time to save Wolf-Spider. Luna brought Wolf-Spider back to the gala, his costume completely ripped to shreds, revealing most of his face. “Guards! Get the medics down here!” Luna ordered the guards. The medics came in and took Wolf-Spider to the hospital, but...it was over. His mask was completely destroyed. Everypony now knows who Wolf-Spider is. Wolf-Spider is not gonna like it when he wakes up. To Be Continued...... > Chapter 12 At The Hospital > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Midnight wakes up from his hospital bed, having a major headache, and removing some kind of machine from his nose. He looks to his left to see a bunch of flowers. He realizes now that he just woke up from a coma. Then all of a sudden, he hears a mysterious voice that said “Morning”. He turned to his right to see a pink alicorn with pink and purple hair. “Um….who are you?” Midnight asked the mysterious pony. “Oh, where are my manners? I am Princess Mi Amore Cadenza. But call me Princess Cadance. Everypony does” Cadance replied. “Well, it’s nice to meet you and all but…..how long was I out?” “About a year. That explosion really knocked you out” “A year?! Wha-the Gala! Of course! How’s Twilight?! Did everypony made it out okay?!” “Calm down! Everypony made it out okay. Twilight was right, you really do care for other ponies then yourself. Though a lot has happened when you were in a coma. Twilight and her friends faced Discord, the lord of chaos. She saved mine and her brother, Shining Armor’s wedding from the Changelings. But….I do have some bad news for you”. Cadance hands over a newspaper to Midnight, the title saying “The Deadly Wolf-Spider, No More?”. He read it and it said how Wolf-Spider had saved the Grand Galloping Gala but got sent to the hospital. Everypony knows he is now. Midnight was shocked of what he saw in the paper. “Wolf-Spider is Midnight Wolf?! Oh no! My career is over! What am I gonna do?! Everypony knows who I am, now!” Midnight said, freaking out. Suddenly, Midnight hears a familiar voice that said “Yo-....you’re alive!” before realizing that it was Twilight that said that. Twilight ran towards Midnight and hugging him, with happy tears in her eyes. “I-I can’t believe it. I thought I’ve lost you” Twilight said, before syncing her lips against his. Midnight still couldn’t believe that he was in a coma for that long and he didn't blame Twilight. He would be surprised well if him and Twilight switched places. But before Midnight could say anything, a white stallion with blue hair walked into the room and said “So, you’re the infamous Midnight Wolf. Twilight has told me a lot about you. I am Shining Armor, her brother”. When Shining Armor said that he was Twilight’s brother, Midnight departed from the kiss and instantly hid under his blanket, shivering in fear. He slowly poked his head from the blanket, still shivering in fear. Twilight asked why was he scared and he explained that I’d rather stay away from big brothers as possible because he knows how overprotective they can be for their siblings. Shining Armor laughs and tells him that he’s not gonna hurt him. Midnight comes out from the blanket, feeling calm and wiping the sweat from his face. “It’s really nice to see you all but I still have a problem. What am I gonna do now? Everypony knows who I am, now” Midnight asked. “Yeah, about that. While you were asleep, I’ve took my time and made you a new suit. It’s like a symbiote but I made sure that the user is in complete control” Twilight said, showing the symbiote that was in a glass jar. Midnight just realized that he feels like a million bits. It must have been his healing factor that kept him alive. Even though Twilight made Midnight a new suit, she still told him that he needs to lay low for a while until they can get this sorted out. Midnight tried to get up from his hospital bed but Twilight stopped him. “Midnight, you can’t just leave the hospital instantly, the doctors need to know and everything” Twilight said. “Okay, fine. I just wanna get outta here” Midnight replied, groaning in the process. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When Midnight got out of the hospital, he got really annoyed that he had to be in a wheelchair. Besides that, he’s really happy that he’s out of that hospital. Though he did worry of the fact that Twilight and her friends faced Discord and the Changelings all by themselves but he was in a coma for a year, he couldn’t tell what was worse. When Midnight and the others made it back to Ponyville, Midnight saw a huge statue of himself as Wolf-Spider in the center of town. That statue was his proper grave and everything. “Did everypony really think that I was dead?” Midnight asked Twilight. “With you in a coma for a year, I could see why they think that” Twilight replied. When Midnight went to go take a closer look at the statue, it said “Here lies the hero that saved us from an evil known as the Arch-Goblin. The Deadly Wolf-Spider, you will be remembered”. Midnight was shocked, everypony thinks that he is dead. I mean, he’s alive and he felt like it was a little bit too much. I mean, he was only the Deadly Wolf-Spider for only a few months at that time. Now he’s presumed dead at this point. Midnight can’t just live a normal life now, he made a promise to his mother and he’s gonna keep it. It was time for the Deadly Wolf-Spider to return in new threads or in this case, a new symbiotic suit! To Be Continued..... > Chapter 13 Back In Black > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Several weeks have passed. Everypony thought that the Deadly Wolf-Spider had died a year ago but they were wrong. Twilight believes that Midnight is ready to become the Deadly Wolf-Spider again. She brings out the symbiote. But Twilight gives Midnight one big, major warning. “Midnight, what I’m about to give you is a symbiote, a life form that bonds with another. When it bonds with you, you have to be in control of it before it controls you. It isn’t like walking for the first time. This is serious. You sure you want the symbiote?” Twilight gave Midnight a few minutes to think this through. After a few minutes, Midnight nodded yes and Twilight released the symbiote. The ooze spots Midnight and starts crawling towards him. When it grabs Midnight, it starts to bond with him. It was covering his whole body. When it reached his head, Midnight closed his eyes. When the symbiote completely bonded with Midnight, he was a completely different pony. The symbiote had given him a new suit. It looked like his old green and yellow suit but was different in a lot of ways. The colors were replaced with black and white. His mask, chest, gloves, and top wings were black while his eyes, symbol, bottom wings, arms, legs, were white. Other than that, his suit was the same, it was just different colors. Midnight stood still, not saying a word. Twilight got concerned, so she walked closer to Midnight. “Midnight? Is that you?” Twilight asked Midnight. “Yeah. It’s me. I’m in full control. I’m not gonna lie, I liked the original green and yellow colors on my old costume. But it does has it’s upsides, like being stealthy” Wolf-Spider replied while looking at his new suit. After a few seconds of looking at his new suit, Wolf-Spider decided to head out and take the suit for a test drive. Twilight wished him good luck and he was off. When Wolf-Spider shot his first web, he went flying. “Wooooooooaaaaah! Unbelieveable! I could never web swing that far before!” Wolf-Spider said to himself. When Wolf-Spider looked at his webbing, it was completely black. Wolf-Spider was completely shocked. The suit was making it’s own webbing. The suit upgraded all of his powers. Speed, agility, and durability. He questioned how strong he was. He saw an old abandoned shaft and lifted the whole thing up “Wow! I used to have trouble lifting up a single pony over my shoulder, before” Midnight said, in surprise. When everypony around him looked at his direction, they can see the abandoned shaft, but they can’t see him. Wolf-Spider is shocked, the suit even upgraded his stealth ability. “You’re definitely my kind of suit. You know what, I think I’ll keep you” Wolf-Spider said to himself. Wolf-Spider decided to go find to crime to go beat up. Wolf-Spider kept on swinging around ponyville, patrolling the streets. When the buzzing noise went off in his head, he stopped swinging. A lightning bolt struck in front of him, revealing...Princess Luna! She had white in her eyes, Wolf-Spider can definitely tell that something’s up with her. “You are trespassing on Equestria property, parasite. Leave now or face my wrath” Luna said in a furious voice. “What?! Hey Luna! It’s Me, Wolf-Spider!” Wolf-Spider said. “Stupid creature, you dare try to intimidate me by sounding like one of my friends?! Pathetic!” Luna shouted. Wolf-Spider got really worried. He said in his head “Shoot! She must not recognize me with this new suit. She probably senses the symbiote but not me. Great job, new suit. You’ve blocked me from my friends so they can’t recognize me. Thank you very much. I gotta do something before she banishes me to the moon or something” before dodging a blast from Luna. Before Luna could banish Wolf-Spider to the moon, she got interrupted by another blast the stop them both. Both of them looked the left to see….Twilight! She must have seen the fight at her tree house. “Luna, that is Wolf-Spider! I just gave him a new suit!” Twilight said to Luna. “But..Wolf-Spider died in that explosion a year ago!” Luna replied. “I thought so too, but it turns out that he was in a coma. But he’s back and better than ever”. “Is this true? Are you the real Wolf-Spider?” Wolf-Spider nodded yes and ordered the symbiote to show himself, revealing Midnight’s face. Luna is shocked. Midnight survived the explosion. Midnight thanked her because she saved him from that explosion. If it wasn’t for her, he would be dead right now. Luna apologizes for attacking Midnight. She wasn’t in her right mind. Midnight forgives her and it makes them even. Everypony saw Midnight and they cheered. Now they know that Wolf-Spider lives. This might be a problem for Midnight. To Be Continued..... > Chapter 14 Wolf-Spider VS King Sombra > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The new suit was great! Wolf-Spider felt like he could do anything as long as he had it on. When Wolf-Spider went back to the tree house, Twilight got a message from Shining Armor and it said to meet him at the Crystal Empire. Midnight and Twilight brought their friends along and went to the train station. Few hours later, they made it. But something was wrong. There was a really bad snow storm. Shining Armor walked in front of the group but his horn had black rocks all over it. Shining Armor explained that an evil known as King Sombra is returning and the crystal heart was missing. King Sombra was once the evil ruler of the Crystal Empire. Everypony in the Empire were slaves. Until Celestia and Luna used the Elements of Harmony to banish him. But now he’s returning and they the crystal heart to bring peace in the Crystal Empire. When Shining Armor explained who was King Sombra, a mysterious voice said “Hmph. Well, he’s no match for us. Isn’t he, Midnight?” in Midnight’s head. Midnight got confused on who said that but just ignored it, it was probably nothing. When they make it to the castle, Midnight spots Cadance but she looks really weak than she was before. It’s like she was dying. Midnight needs to find Sombra or the Crystal Heart. He figured that Twilight and her friends will find the Crystal Heart while go finds King Sombra. But before he left, Shining Armor grabbed Midnight by the shoulder. “Midnight, are you sure you wanna do this? King Sombra is not your average ordinary bad guy. He is called KING Sombra for a reason” Shining Armor said. “Yeah, I’m sure. Plus, it’s me. Remember?” Midnight replied, with a little bit of aggression in his voice. Midnight left the building. Shining Armor felt concerned for Midnight. Midnight doesn’t usually be this...aggressive. Did something upset him? There is something different about Midnight. He just hopes that it’s not bad. Wolf-Spider swings around the Crystal Empire, searching for King Sombra. He’s usually not this aggressive. The voice in Wolf-Spider’s head says “Pfft. We don’t need them. We can take on King Sombra by ourselves”. When he realized that all of the black spikes kept growing on the castle, he knew where King Sombra is. “Ok, KING Sombra, it’s time to see what you’re made of” Wolf-Spider said to himself. Wolf-Spider flew to the top of the castle, ready to fight Sombra. When he reached the top, he saw a bunch of black smoke. The smoke began to forge a face. It was King Sombra! Midnight has prepared himself for this ever since he got here. “So much….hatred. So much….aggression. I like it!” Sombra said with a sinister smile on his face. Sombra forged a sword out of dark magic. Wolf-Spider just growls at Sombra. He is prepared to take down Sombra. Twilight runs up to the top to see Wolf-Spider about to fight Sombra. Twilight tries to stop Wolf-Spider but got caught by Sombra’s magic. Wolf-Spider can’t believe it. Sombra is holding Twilight hostage. That ticks Wolf-Spider off. “You dare try to interfere this fight?! I’m gonna enjoy slaying you” Sombra said to Twilight. “Her?! You haven’t even got started with me!” Wolf-Spider shouted. Sombra swings his sword at Wolf-Spider but the stallion simply dodged those attacks. Wolf-Spider uses his webbing to save Twilight and putting her back at the bottom of the castle. Wolf-Spider gets furious. “Are you insane?! You could have been killed!” Wolf-Spider shouted at Twilight. “I’ve warned you of what could happen! You have to get that suit off!” Twilight shouted back “You know what?! I’m not gonna listen to anymore of this! Who’s side are you on, Twilight?! You gave me this suit, and I’m gonna keep it! If you don’t like it then…...leave!”. Twilight was shocked of what Wolf-Spider said. She started shedding tears. The one pony that she loved is almost gone. She ran away, crying. Wolf-Spider just went back to the top of the castle to face Sombra. “Who needs friends. I have this new suit” Wolf-Spider said to himself. When Wolf-Spider made it back to the castle, Sombra looks at him and just laughs. He brings his sword back and starts swinging at Wolf-Spider. When Sombra saw a pillar on top of Wolf-Spider, he sliced it off, landing it on top of Wolf-Spider. “Don’t….you...get it, Sombra?! I. am. Invincible!” Wolf-Spider shouted, throwing the pillar at Sombra. Sombra is shocked. He dodged the pillar that Wolf-Spider threw at him and starts fleeing. Wolf-Spider gets more furious and screams “Get back here, Sombra!” and starts chasing after him. When Sombra thought he was safe, he stopped running to take a breather. But what he didn’t know was that Wolf-Spider was standing right behind him. Wolf-Spider tackles Sombra and starts squeezing him. “What good does your dark magic do for you, now?!” Wolf-Spider said, squeezing Sombra even tighter. But just when Wolf-Spider was about to squeeze King Sombra to death, he gets interrupted by the buzzing noise going off in his head. He looks behind him and…..Arch-Goblin is coming up fast! Wolf-Spider uses his webbing to grab Arch-Goblin in the chest and give him a giant falcon punch, knocking him out cold. Wolf-Spider let’s go of King Sombra and walks over to Arch-Goblin, lying on the ground and puts him in a choke-hold. “You again?! I’m gonna save you for dessert” Wolf-Spider said as he wrapped Arch-Goblin up with his webbing and leaving him outside of the castle. “And you? You’re the main course!” Wolf-Spider said as turned back around to Sombra. Wolf-Spider uses his webbing to grab Sombra’s sword, throwing it to a wall, destroying it. Sombra is shocked, he just destroyed his swords. He starts gritting his teeth and gets really furious. “You will pay for that with your life, mortal!” Sombra shouted, charging at Wolf-Spider. But Wolf-Spider simply grabs him by the horn and lifts him over his head and says “The check’s in the mail, baby” in a sinister voice as he starts walking towards the edge of the castle, ready to throw him off. “What are you doing?! Don’t you know any honor?! You’re supposed to be the hero. You can’t do this!” Sombra screamed in fear. “Why not? I have the power” Wolf-Spider replied, ready to throw him off the castle. But something stops Wolf-Spider. He starts having flashbacks of ponies who thought of his suit was changing him. When he finally snapped out of it. He steps back from the edge and starts shaking his head, back and forward. “What am I doing?! Twilight is right! I have changed! It’s this suit! it’s changing me!” Wolf-Spider said to himself. All of a sudden, his suit pushes Sombra over the edge on it’s own. Wolf-Spider is shocked, his suit really is taking over. He uses his webbing to grab Sombra before he hit the ground. He now realizes that he has to get that suit off. To Be Continued...... > Chapter 15 Mind Battle > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wolf-Spider may have defeated King Sombra, but he almost killed him at the process. He leaves the castle and went to go find a place to clear his head. When he saw a church, he thought it was the perfect spot. When he made it to the church, he went to the top of it where the bell is. “Stop, Midnight. Come on. You’re overreacting. The suit, the symbiote, it’s made life better. And there is nothing or nopony else we need. Not Twilight, not Celestia-” the voice in Midnight’s head said before being cut off. “Not even our promise to my mother?! Those are not my thoughts!” Wolf-Spider replied, as he started trying to pull the suit off. When he accidentally hit the bell, he goes to his knees and the suit starts freaking out. He finally realizes it. It’s vulnerable to loud noises. When he got closer and was about to hit it again, the suit used all of it’s power to grab the wall, pulling Wolf-Spider away from the bell. “In anger, you sought to hurt us. Instead, you’ve made us stronger. We shall demonstrate” said the voice in Wolf-Spider’s head as the suit starts wrapping Wolf-Spider up. Covering him up completely like a cocoon. In Midnight’s mind, he was back in his old bed, looking like his younger self. It was all a flashback of what he’s done when he got his powers. It was all a replay button. When they made it to the scene where Midnight found the murderer who killed his mother and revealed the killer’s face, everything went black. “We didn’t hurt mother. The world took her away from us. The world takes everything we love. There’s nopony you can trust, Midnight Wolf. Nopony….except us! Join with us. Make our bond permanent. Together, nothing can stop us and everything we ever wanted……...will be ours” said the voice...revealing the symbiotic suit as it reached it’s hoof out in front of Midnight. Midnight didn’t felt like he had other choice. He started to reach out to the symbiote’s hoof but some pony's hoof grabs Midnight hoof. It was his mother, Flora Wolf! Flora picks up Midnight and the symbiote starts getting furious. “We don’t need you anymore, “mommy” the symbiote said. “But he does, come Midnight. I have something to show you” Flora Wolf replied, as Flora and Midnight walked away. The scene changed where Midnight and Flora were having that conversation where Midnight argued with her and left and that was the last time he saw her alive. Midnight sits on the couch, ready to hear what his mother has to say. “Look, Midnight. I know that things look pretty bad. But you have to remember, the pony he changes into the pony he’s going to be for the rest of his life. Just be careful who you change into. Remember, “With great power, comes great responsibility” Flora Wolf said to Midnight. Midnight started to smile but this moment got interrupted when the symbiote came outta nowhere and said “Pretty words. But what good did they do? We still got caught in the explosion. We still let that pony burglar go. He came here and led the Timberwolves here, and took mother away from us-” but gets interrupted by Flora Wolf. “That’s enough of that. Here. Allow me to prove my point” Flora said as the scene changes. When the scene changed, it was the scene where Midnight cornered the burglar and was about to finish him off. Midnight puts the burglar into a choke-hold. Midnight drags him over the window. But the symbiote didn’t see what Flora was trying to prove. “Pfft. THIS proves your point?” the symbiote asked. “Wait for it” Flora replied. When Midnight was about to finish the burglar off, he stops and wraps the burglar up and leaves him for the guards. Midnight walks away, not looking back. The scene changes and everything was dark. There was no light to be found. The symbiote walks behind Midnight. “Nopony is denying the great work we’ve done. But how were we repaid? We have no family, no special somepony, no real friends. Not that can….save us” the symbiote said as it was about to merge with Midnight again but Flora grabbed Midnight away from the symbiote. “You can’t reject what you already are, Midnight” the symbiote said, disappearing without a trace. Midnight stands up from the shadows, seeing his mother fading with a smile on her face. He now knows what he must do. He must defeat the darkness. He puts his original yellow mask on and he was in his original green and yellow costume. The symbiote gets furious and starts charging at Wolf-Spider. Wolf-Spider dodges the charge attack and gives the symbiote a falcon kick. The symbiote falls to the ground and disappears without a trace once more. Wolf-Spider starts looking around and when he looked down, he finds out that the symbiote is pulling him in. The ground was like quicksand. He couldn’t escape it. “We have taken the roots in you, Midnight Wolf. Mind, body, and soul! Why bother struggling? There’s no place you can hide” the symbiote said. Wolf-Spider was about to meet his demise but Flora Wolf grabs his hoof and starts pulling him up. Wolf-Spider now realizes that he’s not alone. He was never alone. He starts having flashbacks of the times he had with his friends and family and starts fighting again. Wolf-Spider and the symbiote charge at each other but Wolf-Spider web shoots the symbiote’s face, blinding it for a second and gets a few punches. The symbiote disappears and pops up behind Wolf-Spider but he catches the symbiote and throws it across the scene. The symbiote was getting weak, Wolf-Spider finishes this fight with one big power kick which sends the symbiote flying and hitting an invisible wall. Everything shatters around them, turning white and Wolf-Spider looks at the symbiote screaming in pain as it disappears forever. Wolf-Spider pulls off his mask. “Thanks, Mom” Midnight said, with a smile on his face. “Don’t mention it, kid. Remember, I’m always with you” Flora replied as everything starts fading away. Meanwhile back in the church, the symbiote cocoon shatters and Wolf-Spider falls to the ground. The symbiote gets furious. Meanwhile back at the castle, Wolf-Spider looks at the castle from the church and King Sombra and the black crystals on the castle are being destroyed by the crystal heart being put back into the heart of the Crystal Empire. A huge explosion happens and everypony’s skin turns into crystal. Everything was back to normal. But there was one last thing Wolf-Spider needs to do. “This isn’t over! You will be ours!” The symbiote said in Wolf-Spider’s head. “I don’t think so, symbiote. I know what you are now, and what you need” Wolf-Spider replied as he hits the bell and starts ripping the suit off. “You feed off of negative emotions. But right now, I’m starving you out. You may have the power to feed off negative emotions, but I have something that you can never feed off of, the magic of friendship!”. “STOP! Don’t do this! We only want to help you! Be with you!”. “Sorry, symbiote. I know this must hurt, but we’re just no good together. Consider yourself dumped!”. To Be Continued.............. (get the reference?) > Chapter 16 Kidnapped > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- After defeating King Sombra and throwing away the black suit, Midnight found his own way back to Ponyville. He didn’t want to take the train back. Not after what he did. Feeling depressed, he took all of his stuff from the tree house and went to the Everfree Forest to the Castle of the Two Sisters. When he made it, he went to the top of the castle, with tears in his eyes, and feeling guilty. All of a sudden, Luna appeared in behind Midnight. “Hi Midnight” Luna said. “Hey,....” Midnight replied, not looking back at Luna. “What I’ve heard what happened back at the Crystal Empire. I’ve sensed that something really bad happened so I just….stop by to see you. But you weren't back at the tree house so I’ve searched here. How’s Twilight?”. “......I don’t know”. “I’ve never heard from you after you and Twilight defeated Sombra. Did something happened?”. “I….hurt her, Luna……..I don’t know what to do”. “...............You start by doing the hardest thing. You forgive yourself. I believe in you, Midnight. You’re a good pony. And I know that you will find a way….to set things right”. Luna uses her magic to bring out Midnight’s costume out of his backpack and sat in front of Midnight. She smiled and and walks in front of Midnight. She understands what Midnight is going through. After Luna was reformed from becoming Nightmare Moon, she tried her hardest to forgive herself for what she did. When she didn’t think it was possible, it Midnight and his friends that brought her back into the light. Midnight smiles and Luna disappears into the night. “Is she right? Can I forgive myself?” Midnight asked himself. Midnight doesn’t know if he can forgive himself. He hurt Twilight, the mare he loved. The black suited took over his body. Midnight needed time to think it through. Meanwhile back in Ponyville, Twilight was back in her tree house, in her bed, crying. Spikes steps into the room. “Twilight? What’s wrong?” Spike asks Twilight. “I...(sob)...I’ve...done something...terrible” Twilight replied, continued sobbing. “Ssssshhhhh. There, there, Twilight. It’s okay. Let it all out. Now, tell me everything”. “I (sob)...I’ve created something….(sob)...awful, and Midnight..(sob) is suffering because of it. It’s all my fault”. “What did you do?”. “(sniff sniff) I’ve created...a new suit for him…..but (sob) he’s lost control over it….I should have been more careful. He’s in that suit because of me(sob)”. “You couldn’t have prevented this. What’s done is done. We all make mistakes. I know Midnight, too. And I’m sure he’s found a way to get rid of the suit. But I do know for a fact that if Midnight was here right now, he would not stand to see you like this. He would want you to stay strong and keep moving forward. With great power comes great responsibility. The best thing to do now….is to forgive yourself”. Twilight begins to smile again and starts to hug Spike. Although she still had tears in her eyes, Spike was right about one thing. She needs to forgive herself. She wipes the tears away and starts getting up from her bed. She heads outside to see a taxi. She heads in the taxi. “So, where to?” The cab-pony said. Before Twilight could say something, the cab-pony grabs her by the mouth and his hoof was all black. There was a screech and Twilight was knocked unconscious. When she wakes up, she find on top of a bridge in the middle of Manehattan. She turns to her left to see a pegasus flying towards her and is coming up fast. She ducks and the mysterious pony pasts her. When the mysterious pony laughed, Twilight recognized that laugh. It was Arch-Goblin! The pony that attacked the Grand Galloping Gala and put Wolf-Spider into a coma! But when she got a closer look, he had the black suit on! “Remember us?” Arch-Goblin asked, with a sinister smile on his face. “H-how did you get the symbiote?!” Twilight asked, in fear. “Oh, simple really. And you have your colt-friend to thank. He left us to rot in that castle. But the suit found it’s way to us. Midnight will ruin the day he rejected us!” Arch-Goblin replied. Arch-Goblin flies away, leaving Twilight on the bridge. Twilight can only watch as Arch-Goblin making a giant web on the bridge. When Twilight looked behind her, she saw….... an army of changelings and Queen Chrysalis! From the looks of it, Chrysalis isn’t too happy that Twilight foiled her plans for conquest back at the Canterlot Wedding. “Remember me, Twilight Sparkle?” Queen Chrysalis asked Twilight. “You?! But...why me?!” Twilight asked. “Oh. This is just good old fashioned revenge. You’ve ruined my plans back at Canterlot! This is our way of repaying you. But first, we’re gonna make you suffer. Just wait til your colt-friend comes to the rescue. We have something planned just for you” “But...why team up with HIM?!” “Him? Oh, we both want the same thing. Revenge! Now let the fun begin!”. To Be Continued..... > Chapter 17 The Final Battle Part I. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Midnight got a message from the princesses that said that Twilight has been kidnapped and she’s at Manehattan. When Midnight got the news, he rushed back to Ponyville and grabbed his old costume. He’s not gonna let the one pony he loves, get hurt. He took the train to Manehattan and he was off. Meanwhile back in Manehattan, Twilight can only stay on the bridge for so long. Everypony under her surrounded the bridge, with guards backing them away from the hostage situation. Every guard that tried to rescue Twilight has been attacked by the changelings. It’s up to Midnight now to save her. Twilight looks to her right he Wolf-Spider is flying is heading her way. Everypony looks at Wolf-Spider and starts cheering. When Wolf-Spider reach Twilight, he looks at his surrounding and the coast was clear. “Midnight? …..They’re gonna kill us both” Twilight said, in fear. “I’m gonna get you out of here” Wolf-Spider replied. “WATCH OUT!’”. Arch-Goblin pops outta nowhere and attacks Wolf-Spider. Wolf-Spider falls down a few levels of the bridge. When the stallion tried to get up, a zap apple landed in front of his hoofs and explodes. The explosion made Wolf-Spider go flying. In mid-air, Arch-Goblin charges at Wolf-Spider and knocks him next to Twilight, with Wolf-Spider’s costume a little bit torn. Arch-Goblin walks closer to Wolf-Spider and removes his symbiote face to reveal his real goblin face. “Hi, Midnight” Arch-Goblin said with a sinister smile on his face. “Goblin?!” Wolf-Spider replied in shock. “You shouldn’t have thrown your life away” Arch-Goblin said as he grabbed Twilight by the neck. “If you know what I’m talking about”. Wolf-Spider tries to charge at Arch-Goblin but he just slaps him across the bridge, falling into Arch-Goblin’s black webbing. Arch-Goblin webbed up Wolf-Spider’s hoof so he couldn’t escape, jumps on him, and removes Wolf-Spider’s mask. “We can find a way to settle this” Midnight said. “You’re so right. I’m thinking…...humiliation. Kinda like how you humiliated me back at the Crystal Empire. Do you remember? ……..Do you remember what you know what you did to us? You’ve made me lose my reputation. Now I’m gonna make you lose your girl. How’s that sound, tiger?”. Arch-Goblin’s symbiotic mask pops back up and is about to slash Midnight but got blasted by Twilight’s magic for a second and Twilight hides herself from Arch-Goblin’s sight. One of Midnight’s hoofs frees itself and hits Arch-Goblin. That sends them falling and they kept on fighting each other. Arch-Goblin got the upper hoof and left Midnight to splat on the ground. Midnight tries to get up and puts his mask back on but got blast by mysterious dark magic. He looks up and spots Queen Chrysalis. But before he could react, Wolf-Spider gets attacked by Arch-Goblin which sends Midnight in front of Chrysalis, punching him as well. Both Arch-Goblin and Chrysalis kept going back and forth, beating Wolf-Spider to a bloody pulp. Each attack tears a piece of Wolf-Spider’s costume. The next punch by Arch-Goblin sends Wolf-Spider to the ground, weak helpless, and his costume torn to shreds. The stallion tries to crawl away but still keeps on getting beaten. Twilight can’t help him, she’s too high up from the ground to reach him. All she can do is watch Wolf-spider getting beaten to death. Queen Chrysalis and Arch-Goblin began to do one final double punch…….but got interrupted by a voice. “HEY! Over here!”. Queen Chrysalis looks to her left and a blast a magic is shot from outta nowhere and sends Chrysalis flying across the scene. Arch-Goblin looked at the location on where that blast came from and spots….Princess Celestia and Luna! The princesses used both of their magic to blast Arch-Goblin far across the bridge. While in mid-air, Arch-Goblin gets caught by a rope and gets punched by a mysterious rainbow which sends him to a part of the bridge that was on fire, burning the symbiote. It was both AJ and RD! Queen Chrysalis gets up from that blast got blasted by a party cannon that was filled with parasprites, blinding her. When she removes the parasprites from her eyes, she finds that all of her arms and legs are tied up by a really nice and jeweled thread. It was Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Rarity! The whole gang is here! Fluttershy and RD grab Twilight and brings her to the ground, safely. Twilight runs toward Wolf-Spider. “Girls? …...You….came for me?” Wolf-Spider said with a little breath in his body. Twilight uses her magic to perform a healing spell and heals Wolf-Spider right back up. Wolf-Spider gets up from that healing spell, all pumped up. Rarity freaked out to see that Wolf-Spider’s costume is all torn up. Everypony just laughs but this happy moment was cut short by Arch-Goblin walking slowly, weak, and gritting his teeth. “HEY! ….Symbiote or no symbiote, it doesn’t matter. There’s a bomb hidden somewhere on this bridge and will go off in one minute, with changelings guarding it. When it goes off, it will dispense a DNA cocktail that will turn everypony in Equestria into goblins. Just. Like. Me!” Arch-Goblin said and laughs. Wolf-Spider is shocked. Arch-Goblin planted a bomb that will turn everypony into him! He needs to stop this. Wolf-Spider web swings away from the scene, leaving Arch-Goblin to the Mane Six and the Princesses. But before he left, Wolf-Spider asked Twilight if she can borrow…..”the car”. Nopony besides Twilight and Wolf-Spider understood what Wolf-Spider was talking about. Twilight gave the stallion the keys and he left. Everypony asked Twilight what was Wolf-Spider was talking about but Twilight just shrugged that it’s a secret weapon. To Be Continued....... > Chapter 18 The Final Battle Part II. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Several Changelings were guarding the bomb. Several had spears. Some complained about guarding the bomb. A few got annoyed by other’s complaints. Some just wanna leave. Changelings can survive that bomb but some got bored to death. “Can any of you why are we doing this, again?” A changeling said, feeling annoyed. “”Because...our queen ordered us to?” one changeling replied. “No, I mean..why are we doing this? We never get to do anything fun. This is boring. All we are doing is guarding a stupid bomb. I mean, yeah we can survive it but I’m bored just by guarding it”. “Hey, if the queen wants us to guard this bomb, she wants us to guard it. Normally, I don’t care if I’m bored or not, I just do what I am tol-....wait a sec. What is that music?”. The Changeling question that too. They have no idea where that mysterious music is coming from. Then out of nowhere, Wolf-Spider pops out of nowhere with a giant jeep playing this music. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__AXXISlF_Y) The jeep hit most of the Changelings with a sound of a strike (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OP8F0VCEW38) and whacked the last changeling with his hoof. “Yeeeeee-haaaaaa! Now that’s what I call a strike! Blammo, haha!. I hope I don’t get a copyright strike for this” Wolf-Spider said. Turning off the music and exiting the jeep, Wolf-Spider heads to the last bomb to defuse it. But just when he got closer to it, Queen Chrysalis pops outta nowhere and attacks Wolf-Spider. Wolf-Spider gets up and gets annoyed that Chrysalis is guarding the bomb. Some things just never get any easier. “You shall not pass, mortal!” Chrysalis shouted. “Oh come on! You’ve totally stole that from Lord of the Rings! I mean, sure I’ve never seen it but everypony knows that line!” Wolf-Spider shouted back. “Enough! I’ve heard enough of your prattle! Now I’ll show you how a true queen smites her enemies!”. Just when she said that, she blasted Wolf-Spider across the room. That was a really deadly hit. That really damaged his mask. He can’t wear it, anymore. So the stallion rips the mask off and is ready to fight. “Listen, I don’t know what Twilight did to you back at the Canterlot Wedding or what you’ve been through as a child, but you don’t have to do this!” Midnight said, dodging as many attacks as he could. “Stop talking and fight me!” Chrysalis shouted. “Alright, fine. You’ve asked for it”. Midnight removes one of his gloves and touches Queen Chrysalis. He backs off and Chrysalis stops moving. She gets confused. She can’t move. She fell right into Midnight’s trap. He knew what happened. It was one of his moves. “What?! W….why can’t I move?!” Chrysalis shouted. “Paralyzing touch. Works every time” Midnight replied. “You brute! You’ve cheated! This is madness!”. “Madness? This. Is. Equestria!”. Midnight kicks Chrysalis off the edge. Screaming, she thought she was about to meet her doom. But what she didn’t realize that Midnight saved her by a thread of webbing. She is shocked. Her enemy not only saved her, but he tricked her. Twice! “Naa, I’m just kidding. I just wanted to say that” Midnight said, pulling Chrysalis up. “W-why?” Chrysalis asked in shock. “Simple, I never kill. Not even you. You or any other criminal are not worth it”. When Midnight pulled Chrysalis up, he just realized….he still needs to defuse the bomb! Midnight rushes over to the bomb and it says ten seconds. He tries to hack the bomb but there was one problem…..there was a red and blue wire. With five seconds left, Midnight didn’t know which one to cut. So, closing his eyes………...he cuts the red wire. With one second to spare….the bomb is defused. Midnight wipes the sweat off of his face and falls to the ground, exhausted and unconscious. When Midnight wakes up……......he finds himself in his bed back at the tree house. To Be Concluded............... > Chapter 19 Aftermath > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Midnight tries to get up from his bed but Twilight stops him from getting up. Seeing the sight of Twilight, Midnight hugs her with tears in his eyes. Midnight was glad that she is okay. After that battle, he needed time with his friends. “Twilight! I…..I’m so glad that you're okay. I was afraid….that I wouldn’t be able to see you again. I But I do have something to say….and that is that I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. I’ve should have known better then to let the suit control m-” Midnight said but gets interrupted by Twilight. Twilight puts her hoof on Midnight’s lips, keeping him from continuing to talk. With happy tears in her eyes, she smiles and nods her head and presses her lips against his. Midnight was shocked. Twilight has forgiven him. Princess Luna was right about one thing. He needs to forgives himself. So, Midnight pulled in further into the kiss. But later departed for the need of oxygen. Midnight hugs Twilight, with happy tears in his eyes and smiling. “You don’t need to apologize, Midnight. I’m also responsible for the suit. I created it and gave it to you. So I’m as much to blame as you” Twilight said. “You know, I’ve been wondering something, Twilight” Midnight replied. “And what’s that?”. “I feel like…..we need a new family member. Not in THAT way but…..in a mechanical way. I wanna build a robot, and I would like you to be involved”. “......I’d love to”. Twilight used her magic to grab a box that was filled with a bunch of parts. Midnight smiled and they went to work. They opened the box and parts flew everywhere. They first started on the arms and legs. They added the wires together and…..okay, I’m not gonna explain all of it so I’m gonna fast forward this to the part where they finished. (two hours later) They’ve finally finished. All they needed to do was add in the A.I. that Twilight made for the robot. They found a way to give the robot a personality. It had a light and dark green mane. And the arms and legs were grey. It had a symbol on it’s chest. It was black but it had a green like symbol that looked like the number eight. When the robot woke up, SHE looked around the room. Midnight and Twilight decided to name her Jenny. Midnight came up with it because the Jenny looked like the Jenny from that one show “My Life as a Teenage Robot”. “Jenny? Can you hear me?” Twilight asked Jenny. Jenny got scared and replied by a punch. But Twilight ducked and Jenny hit Midnight instead. Midnight fell to the ground, unconscious. Jenny must have been really scared if she tried to punch Twilight. “That was SO uncalled for” Midnight said. “Sorry, I got scared” Jenny replied. “Wait...you can talk?” Twilight asked “Of course I can. I’m not that dumb. OH, and thank you for this option”. Jenny hits her chest and she starts transforming. When the green glow disappeared, Midnight and Twilight saw that Jenny turned into a baby dragon. She were shocked. But somehow, every time that Jenny hits her symbol, she turns into something else. She turned into a changeling, parasprite, breezie, bat-pony, griffon, minotaur, diamond dog, draconequus, and a...I don’t know what creature this one is. It’s a mix between a chicken and a dragon but with a giant cage on it’s head. After those transformations, Jenny turned back to normal. “Ten? Huh, guess you can call me Jenny 10” Jenny said. “Good name” Midnight replied. Just then, Spike entered the room with a message from Celestia. It says “Dear Midnight Wolf, I’m writing this to you to tell you that I knew you could do it. You’ve saved Equestria and my prized pupil. And for that, I thank you. Equestria is in your dept and I’ve heard that you’ve made a new friend named Jenny. I’ve always known there was something special about you, Midnight. But I have news for you. You see, you are not the only hero in Equestria, after all. My guards have kept an eye on these individuals. Each one of these ponies have unique and special abilities that no pony has ever seen. Here are the heroes: Fly-Boy, Elemental, Luchador, and the Crimson Colt. Yup, that’s right. A hero named the Crimson Colt and she looks like the Mysterious Mare-Do-Well. So I was wondering, my kingdom has decided to create a new project named “The Justice Ponies Initiative” and was wondering if you and Jenny are in or not. Plus, my guards have discovered a special stone that resembles the Elements of Harmony but much more powerful...like it has infinite power. I'm calling it "the infinity stone". Let me know. Your’s truly, Princess Celestia”. Midnight is shocked. There are more ponies that are like him. More heroes! Jenny starts jumping up and down out of excitement. Midnight thinks about it. Maybe Equestria might need more heroes if there is a bigger threat that no hero can take on, alone. Midnight looks back at Twilight and Jenny and tells them with a smile on his face, “Pack your things, girls. We got ourselves some heroes to find”. I think of a hero as someone who understands the degree of responsibility that comes with his freedom - Bob Dylan ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meanwhile back on the bridge in Manehattan, two construction ponies head to the battle sight to clean the place up. While getting rid a few of the fires, one of the ponies come across something after putting out a fire. The pony gets confused and yells out the other pony to get over there and take a look at it. “It looks like…..obsidian but…..bleeding?” the first construction pony said. But they were wrong. That was not blood that the black rock was squirting out……...It was the symbiote!!!! It survived! The symbiote grabs one of the construction ponies by the hoof and starts bonding with them. The pony starts screaming as the symbiote continues to bond with him. But when the second construction tried to help him. He looked at him hoof to see…...another symbiote?! But….it was red! The other symbiote starts bonding with the second construction pony. Wolf-Spider better be prepared, because he now needs to worry about two symbiotes that are after him.
