My Little Pony: War is Chaos – Part 1 "Opposites Attract"
Chapter 7
Previous ChapterChapter Seven
Behind Bluebilliards was a large medieval style castle floating in the air, anchored to the ground by a very large chain.
Cel assesses the situation, “Is this another one your tests?”
“No, it's just me. Oh but I hold the cards this time, I have your little green friend here.” he tosses up Greenpool like a baseball.
Both Cel and Screwball ask, “What do you want?!” Blue smiles confidentially, “I just need the chaos elements hand them over.” Screwball grabs Cel by the neck, “Do it, do it NOW!!!”
Confused by his request, Cel asks, “"You came all the way here for the Chaos Elements, but we need them to set things right...why would you do this?"
Bluebilliards simply states, “We all have orders that need to be carried out...” Screwball snarls and lunges at Blue. Cel screams, “Screwball no!” the orbs lights up and a bolt turns screwball into a kitten and drops her to the ground. Screwball inspects herself and points at Cel and gang, "Make ANY pussy jokes...and you WILL die!" she walks over to Twilight and asks if she could do anything.
Bluebilliards bellows, “The only pony that can turn her back to a pony is Greenpool.”
Cel looks to his companions, “Mares, I'm an old fool. I need to know what you think first.”
Applejack is the first to answer, “ 'Ah've been listenin' to Greenpool since he got his cutie mark, but ya been the leader since he's been gone...and yer the oldest, you choose.”
Rainbow flutters to him, “If everything goes to shit, we are right here with.” Fluttershy responds, “Umm...yeah, if that's okay.” Surprise even speaks up, “Its time...for me, to say...I believe in you...”
Cel swallows the lump in his throat, “Blue, if all you're doing is following orders...so am I. So, take the Elements of Chaos..." he looks over to his friends with tears in his eyes, "I'm sorry my friends, I Just don't know what else to do...send them over,please.” Pinkie takes, Diamond Tiara, Lost Cause and Greedyblood out of the bag and all of the elements of chaos head over there.
Blue glances at Lost Cause, “Wow Lost, you look terrible.” Lost just replies, “Shut up...”
Bluebilliards pushes a bunch of buttons on the orb, and the orb starts glowing and beams of light hit all of the Elements of Chaos. Greenpool screams out cries of pain, “Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!”
Cels head hangs low, and he mutters "I hope you all can learn to forgive me, you worked so hard..."
Blue boasts, “Cel you sure are stupid for a stallion that's lived so long, you don't get your happy ending!”the portal starts to form. Blue laughs, “Its to late, I lied about giving Greenpool back! he needs to come with me.”
Cel raises his head, his eyes were black, "Well, since I've already done one stupid thing and lost, then maybe I'll do another another stupid thing, just for the hell of it!" Cel shrieks and writhes in pain, areas all over his body go haywire, trembling and warping. Cels body continues to grow until it became a gigantic, black, hairy ball. Five young adult, Black Stallion heads appeared from the ball, "Oh, is that so Bluebilliards?" speaking, not all at once, but one after the other. Like each one knew what the other wanted to say. The ball diminished further and further as they stepped farther out of it. The five of them stood together, each vibrant and built like a tank. They each had one card as their cutie mark, the Ace, the King, the Queen, the Jack, and the Ten. "We are The Straight!" it seemed as though they sang as a choir would.
Trixie and Diamond trade glaces. Trixie stammers, “T-that's not creepy whatsoever...” repulsed Diamond tells her, “Whatever the fuck, that's totally disgusting!”
Greenpool gains enough consciousness to see the five red eyed devils. He spots the cards on their flanks, “Cel, is that all you?!”
"We are not Cel, we are The Straight...we are...Death." in a blink of an eye The Ace retrieves Greenpool and absorbs him completely.
With the link now broken, the portal closes, Blue shouts in disbelief, “Nooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!” Lost bursts into laughter, slapping his hoof to the ground, “Well that was short lived!”
The entire scene shifts and morphs. The castle disappears and it all turns into a barren desert, what it has been the entire time.
The Straight speaks to all of them, "This world is dying...we shall take you all to your resting place." they sing in a booming god like chorus. The Straight fan out, surrounding Blue, Lost and the rest of Chaos.
Greedyblood gets on her knees, “Please, don't kill me, I want to live.”
The Straight unemotionally tells her, “We must, you must pay for what you all have caused...”
Applejack tries reasoning with them, “But, Misters Straights...Surprise and Trixie are good they ain't evil...” Rainbow Dash follows her with, “Plus, we need the elements alive to save the world...” Pinkie Pie begs them, “Please...don't kill my sister, I promise to keep her out of trouble from now on.” Screwball, in her now kitten form, walks up to the Queen, “You wouldn't kill Greenpool, he's Cels friend...and I...I love him.” she says with the saddest kitten eyes ever made.
The Straight imprisons those they'd surrounded in a barrier that had once jailed Sombra at his strongest and walked over to Applejack and gang in unison, making the ground quake.
“Erm...hey thar Misters Straights...umm, what can 'ah do for ya?” she asks nervously.
The Straight all look down on the scared Apple mare, "How can we trust them, they want the world to die, we MUST do, what must be done!”
Lost calls out from in the barrier, “I'm only following orders because Blue made me, I'm so far in his debt that I practically became his slave!”
The Ace pukes up Greenpool, The Straight stares at him, "Friend...you are needed...we must have you and the rest of the Elements release your abilities and close the void. If we are to let them live, we must be assured this is not to happen again. We will only live for another fifty years, that may seem lengthy but it is no long road."
Screwball grapples Greenpool until she nearly cracks his spine, "Greenpool! You're so gross right now but I'm so happy to have you back!!!" she bursts into an uncontrollable sobbing. Greenpool stares down at the little kitten, “Uh, Screw...why are you a cat, and why are you crying?” She stares into his eyes lovingly, “Just shut up, and fix this so we can get married and have a ton of babies!" she pulls his face down to hers, he sees her crazed look, "And NO, you have no say in the matter...” Greenpool shrugs his shoulders, “I have no idea what's going but here.” he turns screwball back to normal.
Twilight Sparkle approaches Greenpool, “It's time to end this...”
The Straight lowers the barrier, and all 12 elements emerge from all the ponies and slam together creating a shock wave, tidal waving through the sky. A wormhole opens and all the ponies from the platform start to float down to the earth .The skies are clear and The Straight smiles, "We shall all meet again when you die." they roar a high pitch, blood curdling shriek and melt into a large puddle of oily flesh that form into the five cards. When the goop fully recedes it leaves Cel Shade laying on the ground.
Greenpool is left confused, “Wait...when who dies?!” Cel opens his opens, “Hey fellas, what'd I miss?”
Applejack helps Cel up, “Yeah, some guys called The Straight came out of the ball you made.”
Cel shade wipes himself off, “Oh yeah them, you could say I made a deal with Death for something and my payment is being their carrier.
“They said they'll be back when somepony dies but nopony died, what was that about?” Greenpool asks.
Cel Shade chuckles, “Oh, they always say that. Everypony dies at some point and they're the ones that take the soul.”
“Huh...well now as for you Bluebilliards. I finally get to throw your flank in jail!” Greenpool happily exclaims.
Blue manically laughs, “Ha ha ha, not on your life Greenpool!” he speaks into a device that's strapped to his leg, “Master, I need out of here!” a voice statically scolds him through the device, “You bumbling imbecile! Fine, this time I'll help you, but next time I'll let you rot!” a high pitch hum sounds off and Bluebilliards fades to nothing.
“Who the HELL is MASTER?!” Greenpool pounds the ground in fury.
As everypony is distracted, Cel Shade looks down to where The Straight had dissolved, the remnants were shaped in the form of a symbol he remembers well.
In a panic he yells, “Lost, come over here!”
Not really caring he strolls over, “Fine, wait...”
Cel speaks softly but seriously, "Do you and your friends want to live or die?"
“I don't have friends like you and the other elements do, so you can kill me but they have families and friends so just send them to jail” he shoots back.
Cel grabs Lost by the shoulders, “Don't worry, if any of you die, it won't be by my hooves. Somepony much more fierce is coming and he can't be destroyed by most physical means. We need all the help we can get!”
Lost Cause just flicks his teeth, “Tch...help, ha! I'll just slow you down, but if I'm meant to help, you'll be seeing me.” Lost throws down a smoke bomb and disappears.
“Damn it all!” Cel growls.
Greenpool had over heard the conversation, “Cel...what do you mean by someone is coming?”
Cel turns to Rainbow Dash, “Rainbow Dash, how fast can you fly to Canterlot Castle? I need you to give a message to the Princesses. They need to meet us at Ponyville in two days, no later. And no ifs, ands or buts!” Rainbow gives a salute, “Yes sir!”
Greenpool has a look of befuddlement, “I suppose we're going to Ponyville. Could you...please explain on the way?” Cel just nods, “Well, we are trotting that way Greenpool ha ha ha.”
Cel explains, “Sombra is the only blood son of my adopted father Astralis and the elder brother of your two princesses...The King got sick and Sombra wanted to rule his stead, but Astralis wouldn't have it. He knew what kind of pony his son was. After that, in anger he disowned the family. He left them to take The Crystal Empire by force, the ponies there were powerful and were able to destroy his body, but he's too willful and crafty to die, so he has remained in spirit and took over their Empire and turned it into his Empire. For years he tortured and murdered them but a few years back it seems the crystal ponies were able to take it back from him”
“That was my little Spikey-wikey's doing!” Rarity spouts with pride.
“Oh? I see then. Well, through the years, King Astralis' health fluctuated, one day he found me and I became the son he no longer had, a few thousand years later he had two daughters, of which you know very well.
Greenpool thinks it over for a bit, Now that makes some since, but Screwball, what's all this about babies?” she perches on his back, “You're not getting out of it, you're mine.”
Cel keeps walking but advises Greenpool, “I believe what she means is that she's chosen you as her mate my friend.”
Greenpool's head hangs low, “Oh and I bet you're just having a grand time with all this, huh? Laugh it up buddy, wait until it's your turn...”
Cel gently taps Greenpool's chin, “Oh no, Greenpool, I'm happy for you. Hey, chin-up son, love's not a bad thing.”
Greenpool turn back to Screwball, “Screwball, I guess I have no choice, 'cause you're probably going to follow me for the rest of my life. So fine, we'll see how this goes.”
She doesn't even open her sleepy eyes, “Yes I would, but I promise you'll thank me later...”
Greenpool blushes at her boldness, and they hop the nearest train to Ponyville. Even though all the ponies are back where they belong, Equestria is still in disarray. So the heroes of Ponyville still have to drive the train themselves. With everypony aboard the train, the Mane6, Cel Shade, Greenpool, Screwball, Derpy, Trixie, Diamond Tiara, Surprise and Greedyblood. They relax on their way back to Ponyville.
“Twilight hon, would you be a dear and drive the train for me?” Cel asks her politely.
She nods excitedly, “Absolutely, I'll get right on it!”
He stops her for a moment, “Erm...but, why don't we let Surprise light and stoke the furnace. We're not in that much of a hurry.”
Twilight takes Surprise into the engine room and they start the train on it's way. Cel sits near one of the windows of the train car, “Greenpool, can I speak with you?” Greenpool breaks away from Screwball, “Uh...sure, what's up?” and the young assassin sits across from the old alchemist.
Cel was sweating so much, it seemed as if he'd caught the flu, “You said Luna was your teacher, yes?” Greenpool waves his hoof, “No, Luna is my boss, I taught myself, but she did bring me back to life. It's the reason why I'm so good with magic.”
Cel slaps the table, "Ha ha! The fact that you are self taught is good, you can do more and are not as restricted. After all this is over, if you'd permit this old geezer, I'd like to request that Luna teach you what she has me, you'd be a fine warrior, more than you are now."
Greenpool grows a sly expression, “I thought I already was better than you ?”
Cel Shade playfully shoves him, “"Boy, don't get ahead of yourself, I wasn't only one that was captured...besides, you may be younger, of course you'd have more stamina to spare. But I have much more experience."
Greenpool replies, “You're loco in the head dude, you look young for a guy that's lived for over eight thousand years!” he mockingly smirks.
Cel straightens himself, “So, *ahem* how was Luna the last time you saw her?”
Greenpool answers, “I never asked her, 'cause I didn't know you...”
Cel gets a far off look in his eyes, “I wonder if she's still angry with me?” then he snaps to, “...cuz if she is, I'm using you as a shield!” they both laugh. Cel puts his arm around Greenpool, "Well here's to the future huh?” two drink appear, and Greenpool announces, “And to new adventures!”
They traveled through the night and arrived at Ponyville at the break of dawn. They disembark and Cel asks Screwball and Derpy to bring Discord to the Library and Derpy flies off carrying Screwball on her back... Rainbow Dash appears out of nowhere, “Hey guys, what took you so long?” Cel shakes her hoof, “Well well, Miss Dash, you are a fast one. When did you get here?” in between breaths, “Like, five minutes ago. The Princesses are in the library.” with a deep exhale of breath Cel says, “We might as well go meet up with the Princesses before Derpy and Screwball get there with Discord, ha ha ha. What say you guys?” they all agree.
The ponies walk through town and witness the shambles that it was left in. Even with everypony cleaning it up, it didn't seem like the same place. They finally came upon Twilight Sparkles home and walked through it's door. As soon as Twilight opened the door Spike jumped at her.
“Twilight, man am I glad to see...hey, what happened to you?” he seems mortified.
Luna came up from behind, “We see that Twilight has unlocked some potential in her...” she caught a glimpse of Cel Shade, “Cel, is that...you?”
"Umm...hey hon." he tries to refrain from running.
Luna asks, “How much time has past since...?”
He cuts her off, “Too long, a week before...you know...the moon." he keeps out of eye contact. Cels knees tremble waiting for Luna to lash out at him.
Luna wears a face of confusion at his reaction, “Elder...are you afraid of us?”
"No my love, only of the pain I must have caused you by leaving...I'm so sorry. I hope there's some way for me to make it up to you Luna. Please don't call me that...makes me feel so old." he looks up finally making eye contact.
She smiles, “You saved the ponies of our land, even our sister and us, that is repayment enough.”
Up to now, all Cel had seen was Princess Luna, But as his eyes match up with Luna's he caught a glimpse of Princess Celestia and his temper flared, "Excuse me Luna. I must speak very frankly with your sister..." Cel gets face to face with the ruler of the Sun.
Luna tries to stop him, “We know you're mad at our sister, please we have forgiven her!”
He stood his ground against her, "Celestia, I have always cared for you, and your father even named you after me. But you have always been a pompous BITCH! How dare you lock her away in the moon for so long! That wasn't needed, you should've asked for my help dammit! Isn't it bad enough that you deformed Discord and trapped him in that stone prison, leaving his family with nopony? Your punishments have always been too extreme."
Everypony in the room became slack-jawed. Not really sure of what they were watching.
Celestia tries to fight back, “How DARE YOU speak to me in that way, you deserted us when we needed you! You can't even imagine the pressure of going through all I have throughout these years. I was alone...what was I suppose to do?”
Cel calmed himself, “That may be but there were other ways, you had never asked for my help! I know I left you mares too soon, but I had thought you were ashamed of me. I never believed I was good enough for Luna let alone ruling Equestria, but that being said, even if there was nothing that could've been done. I should've at least been allowed to see the one I loved be put away...I missed her."
Luna pulls him to her, “But the one you miss is right here Eld...Cel.”
Cel takes deep breaths. "I'm sorry, for all I have and have not done over the century’s. But this isn't the time to go into that too much. The eldest of Astralis somehow has his physical form back and he's coming for us!"
Luna and Celestia trade looks, “No...not Sombra!” Cel nudges his snout to Luna's cheek, "I will explain later...I promise."
Celestia suddenly looks pale and sick, "How could he...? How can we fight him, all he knows is power. With his body he's nearly immortal!" he faces the princesses, "Don't worry now little mares. I'm here and I'm not planning on leaving again.
Greenpool finally gets a word in, “Don't fret your majesties, we'll have the help of chaos itself!” Cel follows with, “We got a plan...I hope..."
Celestia tilts her head in exasperation, “You've gotta be kidding...”
Greenpool bows his head, “Trust us Princess, this is all you got...” Cel looks at his watch, “Speaking of which, where are those mares anyway? They better not be messing about..." Greenpool waves him off, “Screwball messing around, psh never!”
At that moment, the statue Discord drops through the ceiling of the library. Twilight, now in tears, "My house...my books! Derpy could you PLEASE NOT drop things through my roof?" Screwball sticks her head through the hole, "My bad!" Twilight had not the words to truly express her feelings. All but Twilight and Celestia begin laughing.
Greenpool held out his arms, “Speak of the lovely devil...” she slipped into his arms, "Sorry for being late, Derpy got lost playing in the Labyrinth and I had go and drag her out...so we gonna pop this pinata open or what?"
Celestia stands in between the group and Discord, "No, I won't allow it, I don't believe that to be the wisest of ideas!”
“But right now, we all need his help.” Applejack tries to explain. Pinkie Pie hops over her head, “Yeah, besides it could be fun too!” Fluttershy taps her, “Um, but it's not about fun...”
Celestia stands firm, “He must not be allowed free! We can't trust him!” Cel faces her again, “You mean YOU can't trust him...to some of us, he's family!”
Greenpool points out, “At least two...” Screwball snuggles him, “So far...”
Celestia snorts in rage, and looks at Greenpool, "Really?" then uses magic to pick him and Cel up and flings them back. Greenpool eases himself up, “I was just trying to say, everypony needs all the family they can have.” Cel picks himself and Greenpool up, and in a royal tone he once again confronts Celestia, "Okay Tia, I'm tired of playing nice, I know your scared but back down and let me do what I need to do. If not, I will have to make you, I whipped your flank as a filly and I'm pretty sure I could kick your little pastel flank now just TRY ME...and trust me to do this one thing.”
Rainbow Dash gawked, “Whoa, shit just got real!”
Celestia, like a child jolted back as she's did way back when Cel would scold her. All Celestia spoke was a tiny, "Yes sir..."
Luna comforts her sister, “Please dear sister, trust Cel.” she pets Celestia's mane.
Cel adjusts his vest, "Now, it's time to let the cat out of the bag." Screwball yells, "Fuck you Cel..." still tender about being turned into a cat. Greenpool holds her back, “He didn't mean it that way screwball...”
Screwball takes her beanie off and pulls a very large carnival mallet out of it, "Ding rings the bell!" she swings and slams it against Discords stone body, making a high decibel 'BONG' sound.
Pinkie jumps for joy, "AWESOME! It's gonna rain CHOCLATE, teeheehee!" she rapidly bounces up and down.
The stone cracks and pieces randomly fall off. Thus freeing Discord from his damning prison. The statue blows open completely, “I'm free! Oh why, hello my sweet daughter!”
“Hi Daddy!...I gots a hubby now!" she points to Greenpool... Discord examines Luna's assassin, “Hmm...the Element of Dark Magic, not the best choice now is he? But I suppose he will be a most fitting son-in-law.” Greenpool kneels, “It's...nice to have a father-in-law like you Discord.”
She constricts herself around his neck, “Greenpool is best pony...”
With a disfavoring expression, “I guess I can't stop the powers of...ugh, love. Okay, I over heard your conversion, who is this Sombra fellow?” Discord asks.
Celestia tells him, “"He's Luna and my brother, the eldest child of the first King, Astralis."
Discord cups his chin, “Interesting...why do you need me?”
Cel approaches him,"If I may re-introduce myself, my name is Celestial Star Shade. I've had you freed, because I'd like to request your help fighting him. He is the most difficult creature I've ever fought. Maybe the Lord of Chaos would give us the upper-hand. If we can't stop him, everypony, even your daughter and future grandchildren will be no more. It won't matter where you run to. He won't stop here, he will destroy everything!"
Screwball stares down Discord with big Bambi eyes and a pouty bottom lip, "Pretty please Daddy?" Derpy cheers, "For the Muffins!" Pinkie shouts, "For chocolate rain!" Twilight facehoofs and shakes her head, "For Celestia's sake...."
Discord stipulates, “On one condition, Celestia must let me live in a world of Chaos. It may be in another dimension if she so chooses.”
Greenpool points out, “"What about that barren desert on the other side of the Everfree Forest? It's about one hundred miles around, either way there's nothing there, create something..."
Discord ponders the offer, “Well son-in-law, you surprise me, that sounds promising...”
Celestia crosses her hooves, “Fine, but the borders of that area must NOT be crossed!”
“Fine, what do I have to do?” he asks. Cel smiles, "Discord, all you have to do, is what you do best when the attack starts, he won't be expecting any of it. That's settled then, we're all gathered now, let's step outside. The skies have gone dark..."
The group of mismatched ponies and creatures pour out of the Library. Both the Sun and Moon have been eclipsed, covered in black.
A voice slices through the now damp air, the shadowy black, angelic filly forms over them "Hello children..." a knife shaped, fang riddled smile unzipped across the face of the shadow.
Greenpool demands, “Are you King Sombra?!”
The angelic filly morphs it's nonexistent face into the face of King Sombra, “"No...WE are King Sombra!" Cel, Greenpool and the rest look around them and they find that they are surrounded by hundreds of clones of the stallion, Sombra. Pinkie exclaims, “They're covering Ponyville like sprinkles on a cupcake!”
Cel orders, “Everypony, get flank to flank!”
Greedyblood suddenly vanishes, Cel curses her, “Damn it, should've known better!”
Greenpool calls to Derpy, “Which is the real one?” Derpy turns in circles scanning the area, "That's funny! Hey guys, they're all real, isn't that cool?!" Greenpool assess the impossible situation, “No Derpy, not cool...”
Discord chuckles, “Alright then, this might not be so boring after all.”
Another voice rang out of nowhere, “Maybe I could lend a hoof...” then knives erupted through the bellies of two of two of the doppelgangers. The knives slice through them like hot butter, the top halves flop over splattering on the ground.
Cel bursts with glee, “Ha ha! Lost Cause you beautiful bastard, I'm damn glad to see you son! I didn't think you'd come back.”
“And miss a fight like this? Never...” he leaps over to the circle of ponies.
Sombra takes on a more physical form, growing more pronounced by the second. His body takes a strange shape. Sombra stands upright, his front legs form to his sides and his hooves grow five knife-like appendages and his head becomes more round. He has turned into an anthropomorphic pony.
Pinkie giggles, “This would be a heck of a sight for Lyra...”
Sombra raises his newly formed hands, "I am not your King, I am your God!"
Celestia stomps the ground, “That's what you think, traitor! You are nothing to me.”
Luna asks Sombra, “Why are you doing this...?”
Sombra cackles, "Why, why?! Does there always have to be a reason other than the fact that despise you all! The fact that I'm better than you. All you are, are just my sad, futile replacements." Sombra charges at the group and grabs Fluttershy and break both of her wings, "You are all trash, worthless..." and throws her down. Fluttershy shrills in agony and Rainbow Dash attacks him head-on, “You fucking asshole!” Sombra takes her by the tail and throws her through the window of somepony's house. Cel goes over and gives Fluttershy an elixir, “That's I got honey.” she smiles, “Thank you...” Rainbow crawls out the house and join the Mane6, they focus their elements, the spark releases a beam of Harmony from them and into Sombra. He screams and hollers, grabs his chest and collapses to the ground.
Trixie kicks his flaccid body, “Hmph, If you weren't going to put up a fight worthy of the great and powerful Trixie then you shouldn't have shown up at all!”
Discord looks to all the unicorns surrounding them, “At this moment, I honestly don't mean to rain on your parade, but if he's dead, why are they still here?”
Sombras eyes spring open and his claws grasp her back leg like shackles.
He slowly stands again, lifting her off the ground, “You insolent little maggot, you know nothing of what my fight is worth!” Sombra repeatedly smashes his head into her snout until her blood covers his face. He lets out an insane laugh and tosses her to the others.
Cel yells, "All right, enough of this!" the Clydesdale Alicorn looks to the Princesses, "You mares ready? Let's show him our might!" Luna transforms into Nightmare Moon and Celestia glows and becomes Spirit of the Sun.
Discord cracks his knuckles, “Finally, it's my turn...let chaos rain!” clouds began gathering raining panes of glass, anvils, and other hazardous things. Some of the doppelgangers were even transformed into various farm animals. The entirety of Ponyville was turned into a wonderland of madness.
The Mane6, and Lost are in an all out brawl. It seems to them that for every one black unicorn they defeat, five more close in. They're battered, bruised, and getting tired. Both their magic and physical strength cannot hang on much longer. Lost slices through Sombra clones like a chief slices through vegetables, Rarity skewers over twenty with jewels she summons from the ground. Pinkie blow dozens after dozens away with her cannon filled with nails, glass and rocks. Applejack is losing her stride until she hears Rainbow Dash as she dives from the air, "Sonic Rainboom!" a blast of rainbow crashes from the sky and disintegrates all of the clones and all the other ponies fall from exhaustion.
Discord walks among the disfigured corpses and worn ponies and dusts himself off, “It's time to bring the children of Chaos together.” he snaps his fingers and everypony that represents the Elements of Chaos merge and become one pony.
Discord bends down and pets the newly formed pony, “Happy Birthday, my little Chaos...daddy is so proud of you!” he kisses it on the head, “Now destroy that creature that taking all my fun away...”
Sombras aura circles around angrily. He grabs Cel by the face, "You are not me, I am the true son of Astralis!" Sombra picks Cel up and folds him backwards, snapping his spine.
"...heheheh, never thought...I'd see the day that happened..." his eyes dim and slowly close.
Chaos witnesses the fall of Cel, "No!" Chaos runs to him, "Cel get up, get up dammit!" shaking him. Cel barely opens his eyes, "Well aren't you just the most beautiful pony...I'm sorry but this your fight, I don't think I can get up anymore."
Chaos panics, and cries in six voices, “Don't die, please...we need you, Luna needs you! You promised her you'll stay for good.”
Sombra clasps his hands together, "Ohhhh...did I kill your little friend? Ha ha ha ha ha!" All together Chaos, Discord and both Princesses gang up on Sombra. Discord wraps around him like a snake, "Allow me to show you the meaning of Chaos!" Discord takes hold of his temples and injects visions of pure insanity into his mind. Showing him things that never, no matter how long he would live, could he ever understand the sights he was seeing. Sombra howls in pain as insanity fills him, Sombra screams, “Get away, get out of my mind!”
Celestia and Luna fly around Sombra, forming almost a yin/yang pattern, Celestia commands, “Chaos, attack him from above, attack now!”
Chaos flies up and forms a black tornado that comes crashing down on top of Sombra. Discord slithers out of the way. As Chaos closes in, the Princesses impale him from both sides with their magic at max. The impact has an force thirty times as powerful as the strongest Sonic Rainboom.
Chaos wonders, “Did we do it, is he dead?
The warped remains of Sombra suddenly gets up choking out a gargled laugh, “You stupid little ponies can't kill me!”
Derpy flies down from a nearby rooftop and causally walks up to him and stands on her hind legs, “I am not a stupid pony!” she looks Sombra up and down, then rapidly hits and breaks all his major joints up to his shoulders with her front hooves and walks away. Sombra is left helpless.
Cels cutie mark glows and five massive black stallions rise from his body. The Straight approaches the limp Sombra, "Now Death has come for the unjust...Sombra, we have waited for this day...a very long time. You've cheated us long enough, it's time to go to where you belong." The Queen puts her lips to Sombra's head, a blue orb enters her mouth. She chews it and walks over to Luna, she grabs Luna by the back of the head and tells her, “Do not eat...” The Queen mashes their lips together and pours the orb into Luna.
The Straight carry Cels now dead body to Luna and places it at her hooves, “Feed him the renewed soul and he shall come back to life.”
Luna, whom is already blushing, hesitates. Screwball walks over to Luna, "Come on, Princess it's not bad at all! Besides, Cel loves you, you're all he talked about when he knew we were headed this way..." Luna looks at her as if she said, “Really...?” Screwball just nods her head, “Mmmhmm, Hon, tell her...Greenpool tell her!"
Greenpool jumps, “It's true, he was so worried about you being mad at him that he asked me if you were.” Luna nods and presses her lips to his. Screwball nudges Greenpool, “Aww, look what you did, you're so sweet!” he playfully laughs, “Yeah, I'm just a nice guy...”
Cels body began reforming broken bones and his breath comes back to the lungs. His eyes flash open! The Straight dissolve and form back into Cels cutie mark. Everypony shouts, “He's alive!”
Cel shakes his head, “So it seems...did I die?” Applejack tells him, “Sure did sugarcube, Princess Luna brought you back with a kiss...”
Cel looks up to Luna, his face turned red and his cutie mark cards changed to a straight of hearts. "Hey Luna...you're not still mad?"
Luna smiles dearly at him and giggles, “We haven't been mad at you since long ago, you old fool. You just worry us so.” she lays with him and they embrace each other. Something that neither had done in many years.
As the rest shy away from the scene, Screwball looks up at Greenpool, “I think we lost them...”
Greenpool picks up his new found mate, “Yep, lets leave these two alone and start a huge ass party!” she hugs him, “A pony after my own crazy heart!”
Pinkie Pie comes bounding past, “Woo hoo! I'll bring the Party Cannon and Vinyl Scratch can bring the Bass Cannon!"
Everypony screams at once "No!..." Pinkie throws her hooves up "What?..."
The heroes of the day head to the center of Ponyville and Celestia travels back to to Canterlot and Luna decides to stay with Cel and join the festivities. Everypony was having fun but Lost Cause.
Cel sees Lost by himself, "Luna dear, I will be right back, don't go nowhere now." Cel walks over to Lost and wraps his arm around him, "Lost Cause my friend!...We NEED to change that name, it's just so...lonely...anyway, I promised we'd get you some friends, well here they are, at this party. I also promised you a cutie mark of your own, right?
Lost looks up with a gloomy expression, “Hey, and no, I'm fine. I plan on getting my cutie mark myself but thanks.”
Cel belly laughs, “Oh stop being such a damn sour puss and come with me, there's somepony you need to meet...”
They walk through the Everfree forest and as Zecora's home comes to view, Lost turns to Cel kicks him in the gut, taking Cels breath away, “I'm sorry old pony, I just can't trust you that much.” he explodes a smoke bomb and vanishes.
Cel painfully laughs, holding his stomach, “All ya had to say was no son...damn ninja.” Cel rejoins the party and every single pony had come out of hiding, everypony was there. Apple Bloom even brings Cel Shade his favorite drink.
Apple Bloom sets the glass down, “Here ya are darlin', long time no see.” Cel smiles, and Luna takes the glass and drinks it. Cel just stares at her with a brow raised.
Applejack grabs her little sister by the collar of her uniform and drags her away, “Now Apple Bloom he's already spoken for!”
Apple Bloom argues, “But 'ah was just pourin' drinks...”
“Oh 'ah saw what you were doin' young filly...” Applejack drags her away
Both Cel and Luna laugh and all who all at the party go on drinking, eating, dancing and being merry that the troubles were now over.
