New Life
The ponies stared at me for what felt like a life time when Celestia finally spoke. "So...you could have escaped at any time?" I raise a brow at her question, but nod anyway. "Then, why take such pain when you could have fought back?"
I point my clawed finger at my face and reply with my best pokerface. "You really need to ask? This face doesn't exactly say 'happy time and sunshine'." To push my point, I smile showing my fangs like a wild beast, making everypony flinch.
Celestia calmed and smiled at me. "I see your point, still I must ap-"
I cut her with my hand while my ears were perked. I thought I heard a sound before one of the guards shouted. "How dare you interrupt the princess when she-" I cut HIM off by clamping his muzzle shut with my other hand, keeping a claw at one of his eyes.
"Quiet." I whispered, silencing any other protests. I listen closely until I heard the rapid beat of hooves coming closer. I turn to the princesses, removing my hand from the guard's face. "It seems you have news coming your way."
Before either could ask me anything, a new guard came in the room in a rush, sweat dripping from his face and fear in his eyes. "Princess!!! The Diamond Dogs are attacking Ponyville!!!" At that we all left by the sisters teleporting us out of the building.
=============================
We came out in a flash of light to see the carnage brought by the dogs. I looked around, feeling my blood boil at the familar sight of destruction. My gaze fell on a dog that was over a black filly. Twilight must have seen it too, because what she says chills my blood in a instant.
Time seemed to slowed to a crawl as I let what she said sink in. I had read a book that was based on the show called 'Past Sins', and in that book was a filly who was adopted by Twilight and named Nyx. If this was that same Nyx...
Time resumed slowly as the dogs club came down. Before anypony could react, I charged the dogs and tackled him to the ground. After rolling around a bit I ended up on top, my claws holding his face in a vice grip and shoved my thumb claws into his eyes, him screaming the whole time.
With one jerk I tore his skull in half, killing him instantly. I stood up to my full height and turn to the filly who was shaking in fright, at the sight of me no doubt. I spoke in a calm voice, but what I said surprised even me. "Are you alright, my lady?" My eyes widened slightly, but not enough for anypony to notice.
My tone seemed to calm the filly, as she stopped shaking and nodded. I was about to move on when she stopped me. "Wait!!" I looked to her again to find her standing close to me with pleading eyes. As I looked at her I saw that she was wearing a dark violet shirt and pants that went with her coat beautifully. "Please, my friends need help. Will you please help them and Ponyville?"
I felt that something in my mind was demanding me to obey her wishes, but even if there wasn't, I'd still help her. "As you wish, my lady." I bowed to her since I felt it was right. Before anything else could be said, I was off to save other ponies.
Nyx's POV
I watched as the big stallion ran at the dogs and began fighting them when I heard my name being called. "NYX!!!" I turned around and saw The princesses and my mommy and her friends rushing to me.
"Mommy!!" I was picked up and hugged tightly, but I didn't care. I hugged back just as tight, crying hard at how close the Diamond Dog came to taking me away from my mommy forever.
Mommy pulled back a little to look at me. "Oh Nyx, I was so worried! Are you okay, you're not hurt?" I was about to say yes when a scary sound came from where the dogs were. We all looked and saw what it was.
It was the stallion laughing with a scary smile on his face.
He was just laughing, while having three spears ran through his body. The dogs looked more scared than we were. I hope he's just trying to scare them.
OC POV
I laughed at the dogs pathetic attempts to kill me. I roared in defiance. "YOU THINK YOU CAN KILL ME?! I AM ONYX BLADE, PROTECTOR OF LADY NYX!! AND YOUR EXECUTIONER!!!" My eyes narrowed as I yelled, all the while my crazed smile still on my muzzle. The dogs looked like they were about to piss themselves. Good.
I grabbed two of the spears that had impaled me and ripped them out, my smile never fading. I threw them and killed at least five or six dogs in two lines. I pulled out the last spear and tossed it into the air. As the dogs watched the descending weapon, they didn't see me get into position. Right when it was just in the right spot, with the blade pointing at the dogs, I jumped and spin-kicked it so hard it tore through a long line of dogs before embedding itself in a wall, with seven dogs still hanging on it.
As I started towards them, I saw what looked like two repeating crossbows lying next to each other and got a fun idea.
Time for one of my most favorite game moves.
I rushed at the dogs, picking up the crossbows on the way, and dropped kicked the closest mutt. Using the momentum, I landed on the dogs chest and then kicked off the dirt, turning my dog into a makeshift skateboard. I started shooting at any dog I could, never missing a shot. About halfway through the slid I kicked off again and made myself spin, shooting in every direction around me. All the while I was "Woohohoho"ing like a psycho. I jumped off and went high into the air, flipped myself upside down and began spinnig again and shot what I had left, the rotation making it rain crossbow bolts.
(end music)
I landed and saw that I had wiped out almost all of the dogs, the remaining ones having already surrendered. I dropped the crossbows and walked to the group that had formed around Nyx. I could feel their fear of me. I wouldn't blame them, I must look quite the sight. And me killing a horde of Diamond Dogs might have something to do with it.
I stopped in front of Nyx and Twilight and with out a trace of the insanity that I just unleashed, I knelt to one knee, bowed, and spoke with the most calm I had felt since coming here. "What is thy will, Lady Nyx?"
Author's Note
Hey everypony, WASUP?! So how about that twist, huh? Now before anypony says anything, I read once that Pen Stroke said that anypony could use Nyx in their story, just as long as she wasn't the subject of a clop or horrid abuse. I won't go into detail, but I'm sure you all know what I mean. This chap isn't as long as I would have liked, but that ending was just too good to mess with. I'm trying to handle my other stories as well as this one, but just bare with me okay?
Stay brony my friends.
