"I have faith in you, my king. Someday, however, your blade, Frostmourne, will guide you to the Lich King." He returns to his base, with a necromancer waiting for him. "Excuse me, my lord. I have been sensing a great dimensional energy near that mountain." "A great dimensional energy? It sounds promising, but can be dangerous. I shall go there and investigate." "No my lord! It could be dangerous! Let us escort you." "No, I could handle on my own." "As you wish." Kel'Thuzad traveled to search for that mystical dimensional aura. For days, he searched for it, with no luck. Then suddenly, a lavender colored portal opened up and teleported him to an unknown location. Before he was teleported, he said: "In the name of Ner'zhul and Arthas!" *At the Frozen North of Equestria, Crystal Empire* "Come on Twilight! You have been practicing that dimensional spell all day! You need some rest." a cyan colored pony said. Twilight is practicing this spell for the entire day, hoping for success. Exaggerated of failures, she tries again and again, and comes up nothing. "I will not give-up Rainbow Dash! Even if it takes me a whole week!" Twilight said in determination. "But-" But before Dash could speak his sentence completely, a portal just come up, with Twilight smiling. Then, they do not expect what they saw. A being has been brought forth, and it was terrifying. It has a body, of course, but in an undead manner. He has no eyes, but has glowing white on the pupils. Rainbow Dash fainted, but Twilight stood her ground, but shaking in fear. At last, she asked the being, with the portal gone. "Who are....you?" The being watch her, causing her to shake violently in fear. "Before I could answer your question, who are you?" "I'm Twilight Sparkle, personal student of Princess Celestia, and the Element of Magic." 'Element of Magic? That's I could sense strong magical auras in her.' Kel'Thuzad thought "I'm Kel'Thuzad, the lich of the undead Scourge, and the summoner." "Uhm....Well, hello there Mr Kel'Thuzad. I don't mind, but you just crossed my dimensional spell training." "I don't think so. I got teleported here by your magic, but let me tell you this: there is a delicate balance of white and black magic. For you, young one, it's white magic while me it's dark magic. By the way, who was with you when I arrived?" "Uhm....Rainbow Dash." "I'm sorry for her. By the way, I would like to meet your 'princess' here." "Sorry, she's on uhm-" But before Twilight could answer, the door swung open and comes her brother. "Twily, I'm gonna-What are you doing with this....creature?!" "Brother, please, don't hurt him. He got teleported here by my magic." "Yeah right. Get away from him!" the brother of Twilight starts to cast his spell. "Stand down you fool! I'm not a threat to you and your....sister." But he didn't care. He casted his spell on Kel'Thuzad, but didn't work. What was even more astonishing to him, this creature didn't get hurt from his spell "You have been fooling around, and I say the truth, but you didn't respond! You must be scourged from the face of this planet!" He was shocked when the being fires an icy spell, sending his hooves frozen, and cannot move. "You will be frozen, to the might of the Scourge." "Pleas! Don't hurt my brother!" Kel'Thuzad turns his head and saw Twilight crying, begging not to kill his brother. He focuses on her brother a little and unfroze him. "But...I don't understand." "There's vile circumstances to choose from. Now come, I need to know the place." "But before that, could you wake up Rainbow Dash?" Twilight asked. "I can't. But you can." Twilight focuses on waking up on Rainbow Dash, which, in turn, wakes up, only to see the very same creature. "Who....Who are you?!" "Dash, just calm down. His a magic user." "Oh." "Hello again. Sorry if I ever fainted you. By the way, you could call me Kel'Thuzad, the summoner." "Well, hello there Kel'Thuzad!" "Well then, were are we gonna start? Do you have more friends?" Kel'Thuzad asked. "Well, yes. They are down stairs, helping my ex-foalsitter, Princess Cadence." "Escort me down, because I would not expect any warm welcomes." "Just follow me." The 3 duos goes down to the stairs, with other ponies seeing the vile being with them. Some ponies fainted to this creature, while others is getting angry. Where is this creature come from? "Hello. I would like to know for everybody that we have....uhm......a strange visitor today." Twilight announced. The ponies were now staring at the strange being, a very strange and horrifying one. Nothing in their lives that they see a being with this....structure. A pink pony with fluffy hair and tail asked. "Who are you mister?" she said with a look of curiosity. "I'm Kel'Thuzad, the summoner and the lich of the Scourge." "Uhm....My name is Pinkie Pie." "Well hello there Pinkie Pie." The ponies are now staring at Kel'Thuzad, hoping to catch anything suspicious. Then, he spoke. "I could sense something is off here in this place. A magical aura I sensed I supposed." The ponies were utterly terrified that Kel'Thuzad spoke this. What is this magical aura? And what was this sense? Author's Note Well, this Chapter 1. Pls comment below for any mistakes, wanting me to add additional information, or anything else. It will very appreciated. :D Chapter 3: InterrogationThe ponies wondered why Kel'Thuzad makes an astonishing discovery of a pony, trapped in the crystal wall. Suddenly, the pony began to wake up, with it's eyes focused on them. "Who are you, strange one?" Kel'Thuzad asked. The pony thinks about the question of the strange being, before replying. "I'm Garlock, a warlock. I have troubles though on remembering on my memories. Who are you then?" "I'm Kel'Thuzad, the summoner and the very one who helped you escaping that crystal wall." "Nice to meet you Mr. Kel'Thuzad. I have a spellbook though, which I lost a long time ago." "I have also a spellbook, it's from Medivh, the Last Guardian. His lost spellbook is very powerful, even powerful than I, or us ever realized. His knowledge in demons are staggering." "Very interesting. I supposed-" Garlock was cut off by Kel'Thuzad, who turned to Twilight Sparkle and said "I could sense a very powerful magic on you, young one. However, this power could corrupt you in any time it wants." Twilight gulped at what Kel'Thuzad said. "What do you mean?" "Like I said, you have great magical potential. But one single misstep, then you will corrupted, deep within your soul." The ponies shruddered in shock as Kel'Thuzad spoke this. Then, an orange colored pony with a cowboy hat appeared and asked "Those that mean our friend here will be like you?" "No. But, she will be different. She will embrace dark magic, and corrupting her is much more easier. You see, the stronger you are with magic, you are in more danger of being corrupted." "Those that mean, I will be evil?" Twilight then asked. "Yes, only if you are corrupted. You must watch your step, young one." Kel'Thuzad warned. Twilight bear the warning he said earlier. "Excuse me, but what are you gonna do to me?" Garlock asked. "It will begin tomorrow, strange one." *That night* Kel'Thuzad looked at the night sky, thinking of his king, Arthas, back in Azeroth. "May I have a word with you?" Kel'Thuzad turned his head and saw Twilight, then replied "You may." "I was actually very interested in your....magic. I was not thinking other races doing something like that." "The magic I was using is highly kept from me, so I could use it any time I want to." "I have to ask: what will be the corruption inside of me?" Kel'Thuzad wondered, then spoke "Your corruption would be vengeance." "But, why vengeance?!" Twilight stummered "Your vengeance would fall under two things, young one. First off, you're angry because of a certain event that will change your life....forever. The second it will be that you scower the country for powerful magic, to kill the beast that you are hunting for. Turns out, dark magic has grown full on you, enveloping you to darkness, until you have other emotions, like hate." "That....That will never happen!" "But fate will never be altered. Sad to say, but it is true." Twilight bowed her head in shame, not wanting to hear the dark truth. "But, you will have time to change the dark fate." Twilight then glimmered in hope, hoping to find an answer to this....dark truth. "Now rest young one. We have a lot of things to do." "Ok." *Next day* Twilight woke up from her bed, and prepares to go down when Kel'Thuzad's warning is now in her head, spinning like a tornado. She dismisses it, thinking it's just a pipe dream. She goes down, and saw Kel'Thuzad watching as Garlock proceeds to the throne room. "Having a nice rest?" she asked. Kel'Thuzad turned his head, saw Twilight, and replied. "I didn't rest young one. I was reading my spellbook all night." Uhm...Ok." "Now hush, we begin the interrogation." Garlock moves in the throne room, with Princess Cadence and Shining Armor sitting. Next to them where Twilight and Kel'Thuzad. "By orders of the princess: you could begin the interrogation." a guards pony declared. "You, Garlock, a pony who has been trapped in the crystal wall, explain yourself." "I am Garlock, a warlock in the ancient Crystal Order. I don't know why I was trapped there, but it was for obvious reasons." "Are you lying to us?" Twilight asked. "No, I'm telling the truth from my fractured past. Pity, I could still remember some, but not all." Garlock replied. "Kel'Thuzad, what do you have to say?" Cadence asked the lich "Honestly, he's speaking the truth. Through his eyes, I could see his past when he his on his 'Crystal Order'." The reply from Kel'Thuzad shocked the ponies, not at least to Twilight herself. "You! How could....you?!" Armor now exclaimed in rage. But before Kel'Thuzad could reply, a messenger came. "A letter from Canterlot, it's for you, Miss Twilight." Twilight took the letter and read it. After a few minutes of reading it, she gasped in horror, with an emotion she must control: vengeance. "Let me read it, young one." Kel'Thuzad asked. Twilight look at him, before pass it to him, and he read it, and was surprise by it. Author's Note Chapter 3 is finally finished! Sorry if it is a half-short and half-long chapter, with Chapter 4: The Letter, being the shortest. However, Chapter 5: Controlling Emotion, will be written shortly after Chapter 4. I hope you enjoyed the story! If errors are spotted, pls comment so I could correct in a hinch. Chapter 4: The LetterDear Twilight, My humble student, sorry for being passive, but Applejack's sister, Apple Bloom, has been severely injured by an unknown pony. Her injury, including severe scars and bruises, has been studied this afternoon and might be studied for a while, and the culprit, who was in a cloak, must still be found. I'm sorry Twilight, it was just that I was busy from my loyal matters. I'm truly sorry, and please forgive me. Now, I'm also hearing rumors that a strange being has appeared suddenly in the Crystal Empire. They say that it can do magic. I want to see this being, and once again, I'm sorry for the tragedy. Applejack's sister is in the Ponyville Hospital, and the doctors said that she will be fine. However, they say it will take days for her injuries to recover. For that, please bear in mind that you must inform your friends. Thank you and please understand this. By your faithful teacher, Princess Celestia Author's Note Chapter 4: The Letter is here! Sorry if the letter is short, that's why this chapter is the shortest. But don't worry, this unforgiving chapter will be overshadowed by the other chapters, including it's predecessors. Chapter 5: Controlling EmotionTwilight, who's head bears the word 'vengeance', is now silently hissing in rage. How could Celestia failed Applejack's sister, one of her loyal subjects? Her mind is now boiling, with her horn glowing with anger. "Young one-" But before Kel'Thuzad could finish his sentence, Twilight put a guard pinned on the wall, and walks out of the throne room. "Guards, stop Twilight!" Cadence ordered. As soon it was said, 4 guards was on the way of Twilight, who was in a spree of revenge. The guards advanced, but was pinned down by Twilight. As soon Twilight walks out of the Crystal castle, a voice was heard, threatening "Keep yourself intact, young one, or be scourged to death!" Twilight turned, and saw Kel'Thuzad, ready for something. "What could you be possibly to do to stop me?" Twilight said in a menacing laugh. Her friends, brother, and ex-foalsitter gasps in horror at what they saw on the characteristics of Twilight. Her eyes are now snake-like, with a black mist rising. But before they could fully examine Twilight, Kel'Thuzad raises his hand, readies for a another spell, with Twilight readying also, and said: "I summon thee the dead, and hold her for eternity!" Just as suddenly, 4 boney hands rises up and grabs Twilight, much to her surprise. They grab her hooves, and locked her from her original position. Kel'Thuzad begins walking towards Twilight, with her friends and brother thought that he will end her.....personally. Twilight now saw his eyes, looking back at her. She commanded several seconds later: "Release me! Release me at once!" But before Twilight could get an answer, Kel'Thuzad put an ice spell, getting her to feel dizzy and then fall asleep. He then ordered that she must be in a room so that he could something important. "What are you are gonna do with Twilight?" ask the grey colored pony. "I will do something important. Her corruption alone could kill anyone in a matter of seconds. You must hold posture, or face the wrath of the Scourge!" The ponies are now utterly confused, but continued straight to their own ways. *At Twilight's room* Twilight woke up from her vengeance seek in the morning a while ago. Her head still aches, with Kel'Thuzad beside her. "What...What are you gonna do to me?" "I'm going to ask you one question: Why?" Twilight wondered at the being's question. "Let me rephrase: Why did you let yourself be controlled by vengeance?" "I....I...I got angry." "Your reason why you got angry?" "I....I....." "You cannot control your emotions, young one. It's a dangerous play for you, one more any your sanity is gone, forever." Twilight got shocked by this....evil revelation. 'How could I lose my sanity by some vengeance?!' "I...I promise that it won't happen again." "I doubt that you will keep your promise. But I have faith that you will succeed." "Thank you, Kel'Thuzad." *Later* Kel'Thuzad walks out of Twilight's room, only to be approached by 7 ponies, with worried looks on their faces. "What did you do to Twilight?" the pink one said. "Nothing. I just interrogated her to control her new emotion." "And what exactly is this new emotion, being?" Cadence asked with a raging look on her face. "Her new emotion is vengeance. She is angry that Princess Celestia didn't defend a certain one named Apple Bloom. She is gravely injured, but-" "Mah sister is injured?!" Applejack said. "You must be Applejack, and yes. She is injured, but the princess assured that she will be fine." "Back to the topic, why did Twilight become so....evil-looking with vengeance?" Shining said. "Ah, that evil emotion. I could make someone corrupted, with a another emotion helping it: anger." "Why? Should she be angry?" "I said it before, and I will say it again: Celestia didn't defend Apple Bloom because of some loyal matters." "Yah mean that mah sister has not been defended by Celestia who has loyal matter?!" "By other means yes." But before the ponies could answer, Twilight walks out of her room, with a feeling of something odd in her face. "Hello, darling. I must say it is pretty devastating to know that Celestia failed." the grey colored pony spoke out. "It is...for me. Right now, I'm probably getting dizzy because of my head." "Is there anything wrong?" Shining asked. "None, my brother. It's just there is something wrong with me. I feel like....the evil inside of me has arisen." Her words were listened by her friends, brother and ex-foalsitter. But when they heard the last sentence, their spine shivered with cold. "Do not fear young one. I do hope that evil of yours did not consume much." "-Laugh- I supposed so." Her friends sighed in relief, only to be broken by a scream of pain by Twilight. "AAAARRRRRGGGGHHHH! My head! It hurts!" she exclaimed. "Young one, get a hold yourself! Your evil self is now claiming your sanity!" Kel'Thuzad said. But it was too late. Twilight is now enveloped in a mist of black, with her friends and brother watch in horror. 'It is now the time for Dark and Light to battle again. If only Arthas and the Scourge was here, what will I do?' Kel'Thuzad asked in his mind. Author's Note Chapter 5 is out! Finally a long chapter(sort-of). Chapter 6 will be out soon. Chapter 6: Twilight's CorruptionAs she was enveloped in a cloud of black, Twilight's head began to turn, as she saw nothing but total darkness. "Why am I here?!" "-Chuckle- Hello my dear child." "W...Who are you? What do you want from me?!" "Oh nothing. I just wanted to take control of you, and you will learn great knowledge of magic and power." Twilight think of it a bit, before answering: "You just wanted me to become evil. But no! I will not have you take control over my body!" "Oh, what great courage and determination you have. Too bad you will be weak because you just learn basic mastery magic." "What?!" "What you have learned is just the basics of mastery magic. Let me help you, at least to learn new magic of advancements." "But...But..." "Let me help you at least." The dark being get inside of her mind, getting her to learn new magic....dark magic to say at least. She learned them in a flash, and they said "Now, we are one" *Outside the Black mist* Her friends and brother is now shaking in fear, not realizing what will happen next. Kel'Thuzad, a magic user himself, knew it was dark magic, but it was more sinister. Suddenly, the mist exploded and comes out Twilight. Kel'Thuzad shields himself with an ice shield, while Shining and the Mane 6(minus Twilight) was enveloped in an aura of magic, casts by Princess Cadence herself. The explosion dies out, and comes out Twilight. "Twily! Are you-" Shining didn't begin his sentence when he, and the Mane 6, examined Twilight's characteristics. She was taller, her mane darker and her hair, well, purple with white streaks on it. Her cutie mark, from a purple star-shaped one, has become four-pointed black star. It was accompanied by two other things, a sword and a bone. "Twily, what happened to you?" Twilight opened her eyes, blinking for a few seconds, then said "Hahaha! Twilight Sparkle is no more! Today I shall be called as Twilight Night!" "You naive fool! You have plunged yourself to the lands of darkness." Kel'Thuzad said. Her friends and brother, however, we're looking at Twilight at a mix of horror and rage on their faces. How could Twilight become evil? Nothing is certain. "Twi! Get a hold yahself!" Applejack said, hoping for an answer. But instead, Twilight tossed her over to one of the pillars, knocking her out. "Dear, how dare you become an evil being?!" Rarity recklessly exclaimed in rage. But Kel'Thuzad, who studied Twilight's magic aura, he's becoming suspicious about Twilight's new powers. 'I dearly hope that the Scourge is here.' he thought. Twilight walks towards her remaining friends, who are now raging to know who would done this to Twilight. "I will get this guys!" the cyan colored pegasus said. "Wait Rainbow Dash!" the yellow colored pegasus cried. But it was too late. Rainbow already charged to the corrupted Twilight, ready to knock her out. Unfortunately, Twilight already grabbed her with her magic, and pinned her to a wall. "It's time for your death!" But before she could cast a 'death' spell, she was hit by an ice spell, turned around and saw none other than Kel'Thuzad. "Stop you mindless one! You must be in control of yourself!" "Hah! Have you heard it? Twilight Sparkle is no more!" "Then I will have you scourged right now!" "Oh, so it seems." But before she could attack Kel'Thuzad, a portal just opened and come out other beings. Author's Note Chapter 6 is out! Ok guys. I'm not going to the write-publish instinct. Time for old-fashion! Chapter 7: The ScourgeAs soon as the portals opens, beings not from Equestria like Kel'Thuzad comes out and one of them shouted: "Onward for the Scourge! Save Kel'Thuzad in Arthas' name!" "Who the-" Before he could finish his sentence, he and his colleagues are fighting the corrupted Twilight. After blows after blows, she said: "I will return, and dark the land forever!" Twilight said in evil pride She then turned into a black mist and then was dispersed, with the Mane 6(minus Applejack and Twilight) and Princess Cadence and Shining Armor saw in horror. Then they heard a conversation: "I'm grateful of your assistance, mighty one. Who are you?" "No heed for the grateful tone, lich, I am Anub'arak, ancient king of Azjol-Nerub. I was sent by the Lich King Arthas to know your disappearance, with the help of his forces, and when of your necromancer's talk about you going into that mountain, we search it and found the portal. Obviously, it actually transported us here." "-Laugh- I was loyal to Arthas, and paid me back with this. I'm grateful about it." "No heed for it, lich. Now, what are these.....horses are?" "They are called ponies, Anub'arak. They are the one who transported me here when I investigated the portal itself." "Interesting. Suffice to say, do they have names? Or they have named by you?" "They're talking ponies Anub'arak. Obviously, they have their names." "Hm...I want to know their names Kel'Thuzad. Can I know their names?" "Before that, I would like to know there were 8 of them. But one them, Twilight Sparkle, a lavender colored pony, has become evil. She said she will darken the land, much as the Scourge would do. Here, meet them." Kel'Thuzad pointed out at the remaining 7 ponies. One of them, a pink colored one, introduces herself and said: "Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie. I heard that your name was Anub something." "Let me reassure your memories young one. My name is Anub'arak." "Ok Anub'arak!" Next one was the grey colored one. "Hello. My name is Rarity, a fashion designer of Ponyville. I must say, darling, you are a big one." Anub'arak just nodded and moved to a yellow colored pony. She was typically, as Anub'arak saw it, as shy. "Who are you, young one?" "I'm.....Fluttershy." "That fits for your personality, young one." He then moves towards the cyan colored pegasus. "Who are you?" "Who are you then?!" "Perhaps you aren't listening. Here: I'm Anub'arak, ancient king of Azjol-Nerub." The pegasus widened in realization, as she was talking with royalty. "Sorry. By the way, I'm Rainbow Dash. Greatest flyer of Equestria!" "Nice to meet you. By the way, who is that orange colored one over there?" "That's Applejack. She was knocked out cold by Twilight." "I'm sorry for that one." "That's ok. By the way, are you going to save Kel'Thuzad?" Pinkie Pie asked. "Yes. However, because your friend there becomes inexplicably evil, we will help you to restore your friend. But it needs a powerful incantation to restore her." "I think we have that incantation." a voice said. They turned their heads around and saw none other than Princess Celestia and her sister, Princess Luna. "Princess Celestia and Luna!" the ponies yelled in joy. The undead were in mere surprise to hear the voice of royalty. "Hello, beings. I'm Princess Celestia, co-ruler of Equestria with my sister, Luna." Kel'Thuzad steps forward, with Luna shivering in fear of the being. "Hello. I'm Kel'Thuzad, personal servant of King Arthas and the Scourge, and the summoner." "And I'm Anub'arak, ancient king of Azjol-Nerub." another being stepped forward and said. The princess were stunned by the names, but continued on anyway. "I heard that my personal student, Twilight Sparkle, has become evil?" Celestia asked. "Suffice to say, yes." Kel'Thuzad replied. Celestia had the feeling of guilt. "The only thing that could heal her is a powerful incantation from a powerful being. However, this magic could be attained by highly skilled magicians, necromancers, sorcerers and sorceress'." Anub'arak added. "We got the Elements of Harmony. Should that work?" "No. She possess dark magic, and another dark magic would heal her. I'm a magic user of darkness, but 2 others would be useful as well." Kel'Thuzad pointed out. "So only dark magic would heal my student?" Celestia asked uncertain. "I believe so, yes." Kel'Thuzad said. The ponies are now hit like a brick wall, and bowed their heads in grief, Fluttershy in particular. But unknown to them, including Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak, she has someone in her mind, ready to take any price just to save Twilight. Author's Note Chapter 7 is out! Another half-long chapter. Chapter 8: Death Knight Fluttershy, will be out in a few days prior. Chapter 8: Death Knight FluttershyAs night falls, the ponies went to sleep in their respective quarters to discuss importantly with Anub'arak and Kel'Thuzad how to turn back Twilight to her old self. Fluttershy had been sleeping in her quarters, and didn't sleep well quite enough. She had horrible nightmares about her friends. Nightmare's of eternal darkness, her being evil also. She is not able to sleep that well. But, moments later, when she is still sleeping, she heard a voice at the back of her head, saying: "Well, Fluttershy, I supposed your wondering what to do next, have you?" "Well, no. But, she is more powerful. How are we gonna suppose to defeat her, without the Elements of Harmony?" "I heard from Kel'Thuzad that dark magic is the only cure, and needs 2 more people to do it, right?" "Well, yes. But, I'm not a unicorn or alicorn just to have the arcane magic of darkness." "Well, I could fix that." "Really? But how?" "I will give you that arcane magic, with a price of course." "What is the price?" Fluttershy asked nervously in fear. "The price is that the power will scar your soul. You will become something that nopony ever realize." "Your referring that the price is my soul. Then, I don't want that! Even though it's for my friend!" "Have you ever realize that Twilight has becoming even stronger each day, have you?" "No, but-" "Then take this, and you will have the power, with Kel'Thuzad, to bring your friend back." Then, a swirl of black mist appeared in front of Fluttershy's face, with an ice sword sticking out of it. "Take it, and the power is yours." Fluttershy didn't resist the offer, so she took the ice sword, just for the sake of her friend. Immediately, the mist surrounded her for a few minutes, before dispersing to reveal the new Fluttershy, uttering: "Now, we are one!" She then stepped out and saw Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak, and walks to them. *At the balcony, the same time* "I would feel bad for Twilight Sparkle. A personal student of princess, only to be transformed into evil." Anub'arak. "Yes. However, with black magic to only cure for her, it's even more difficult to heal her." Kel'Thuzad replied. "I would help you." The two undead beings turn their heads and saw Fluttershy, but she was different. Her eyes has become black, with blue pupils. She wears death knight armor, with her mane and hair paler to their original color. She also carries an ice sword, like Arthas' runeblade Frostmourne. Her hair, although paler pink, has some streaks of other colors as well. "Good evening, gentlemen. I supposed you were surprised at my new form." "Not at all." Both of them replied. "Well then. I supposed that we should discuss a plan to get Twilight rescued, right?" "I think so. But we will discuss it tomorrow morning." "You realize that Twilight will find something that could kill the one that got her evil in the first place?" "Perhaps. Regardless, we must speak it out tomorrow. And Fluttershy." "Yes?" "Get yourself hidden because they will think you are evil as well." "With pleasure." *The next morning* The ponies wake up from their respective rooms, and readied themselves for the meeting. They then trotted to the meeting hall. After a few minutes, Princess declared: "Let the meeting begin. You first, Luna." "Thank you, sister. Now, as we know, Twilight Sparkle has become evil. Now Kel'Thuzad....Wait, where is Fluttershy, Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak? They should have been here right now." "Yeah. Where are those 3?" Rarity asked. But before they could guess the question, a guard came up and spoke to Princess Cadence, which widened in shock. "Why? What's the matter?" Celestia asked. "T...Twilight is here." "What?!" The ponies ran towards the main gate, and saw Twilight beating up multiple guard ponies with her dark magic. Princess Luna then shouted: "Stop!" "Oh hello there Princess Celestia. I supposed I would now beat you up with my new magic, do I?" "I-" Luna began but was cut off by Celestia. "Never! I will not let you harm them!" "Come then. You will now know that I'm powerful than you are." The two ponies then charged their powerful spells, then fired at each other. As the battle intensified, Twilight has the upper hand. With every passing minute, Princess Celestia began to weaken. Then, she was flying towards the wall and hit it. Everypony didn't believe it. Celestia got beaten by her own personal student. Twilight then moved towards Celestia, and a spear emerges from her black mist. "Goodbye, Celestia." Celestia closed her eyes, waiting for her end. But before Twilight could kill her, an ice sword breaks the spear from her grip, flying it towards one of the pillars. Angered, Twilight turned her head, only to find somepony like Fluttershy, but the colors are paler. She holds the ice sword. "Who are you pony?" "-Laugh- I thought you'd never asked. I am Fluttershy, only know just to stop you from killing Princess Celestia." "Fool! You will be killed." "-Chuckle- Let's fight then." Twilight then got a dark sword, and the two battle it out. The ponies are staring in shock of the battle, with the 2 exchange blows with each other. Twilight soon wears out, and Fluttershy lands a good punch on her face, sending Twilight towards one the walls. "You will pay for this!" Twilight's horn starts to glow, but before she could cast the spell, an ice spell hurls towards her, and freezes her horn. "Stop you mindless one!" "Onward for the Scourge! Stop her in Arthas' name!" Twilight turned her head and saw Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak, with their faithful soldiers. She then saw Fluttershy, hissed and said: "This isn't over!" She turned into a black mist and went away. The ponies that watched were in awe. Rarity then move towards Fluttershy and asked "What happened to you dear?" "I will answer that question later. Right now, we will need to prepare." Fluttershy replied with Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak nodding in agreement. Author's Note Chapter 8: Death Knight Fluttershy is finished! Finally a thousand word chapter. Chapter 9: Realization and Preparation would be out soon. Chapter 9: Realization and Preparation"So, Fluttershy, what do you call yourself with that....thing?" Rainbow Dash asked. Fluttershy thinks about it, before answering: "I don't know. Kel'Thuzad, do you know?" "Well yes. They are known as death knights. They wield incredible amounts of magic." "But why do they need swords, like Fluttershy has?" Pinkie Pie asked. "That I do not know young one. Even my extensive knowledge of undead magic don't know." Kel'Thuzad replied. "Well at least we all know that Fluttershy has saved Princess Celestia. By the way, where is the princess?" Cadence asked. "She is on her quarters, guarded by Princess Luna." Anub'arak replied. The ponies looked at each other with satisfaction, and moved towards their respective quarters to prepare themselves for the meeting. Meanwhile, Kel'Thuzad, Anub'arak and Flutterknight moved to the meeting hall. "I supposed we ready ourselves for the meeting." Anub'arak suggested. "Certainly, but I doubt that the 2 princesses would listen to us." Kel'Thuzad pointed out in reply. "I'm sure that they will listen to us." Flutterknight replied. "I do hope so." Kel'Thuzad. A few moments later, the royal door and goes in the Mane 6, the 2 Princesses, Princess Cadence and Shining Armor. They take their positions, including the 3, to discuss the anomalies. Princess Luna then declare: "I hereby declare this meeting open!" "As we know, my personal student has become evil." Celestia said. "Yes, and we now know from our fellow, Kel'Thuzad, that dark magic is the only thing that would cure her." Cadence added. "But with Fluttershy with her erm....dark powers we could do it." Luna pointed out. "It's Flutterknight now and yes, but you do realize that she will hunt more power to kill us, do you?" Flutterknight asked. The ponies are now utterly confused, except for Celestia and Luna who realized what she meant. "How are we gonna prepare? Without the Elements of Harmony, we are powerless." Luna said. "I know one person who has been 'reformed', do you?" The princesses looked at each other, with Celestia turning back to Flutterknight and asked: "Don't you mean Discord?" "Yes. He is the god of chaos, and dark magic uses also chaos magic." "It could be possible, but we need time." Kel'Thuzad suggested. "Agreed. Well, that's settled. Everypony! Get back to your quarters and prepare. Kel'Thuzad, Anub'arak and Flutter...knight, including you sister, stay. We have a little talk." The ponies then nodded and returned to their quarters, with 3 ponies and 2 beings left behind. After a long dead silence, Anub'arak asked: "What do you want to chat at, princess?" "About Flutterknight, why is she picked as a....death knight right?" "Let me explain. A voice echoed from my head, and we have a conversation. After that, a black mist appeared in front of me, with the ice sword I'm carrying right now sticking out. Wanting to save Twilight, I took it, and the black mist swirled around me. After a few minutes, it has disappeared and now the current form you are now seeing." Flutterknight said. "Choices are hard, young one. Choosing to save your friend by a cost, or abandoning her is a tough one. Hard times can give you a panic." Kel'Thuzad said. "Yup. But I'm happy because I could now save Twilight from her plight." "Well, if that's settled, let us prepare. We have a long road ahead of us." Anub'arak said. All of them agreed and moved to their respective quarters. Author's Note Chapter 9 is done! If you have read the notifications, then 'Pacific Rim' will be submitted after a 1k word chapter of 2 chapters are finished. If you see any grammar or any other mistakes from this chapter and the 'Pacific Rim' story, I will definatly fix it. Chapter 10: Travel and PracticeThe day was finally anticipated. The day that Twilight will be freed from evil plight. The Mane 6, Shining Armor and the Princesses all gear up to travel where Twilight would be hiding. After hours of preparations, the ponies meet Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak. "Is everyone ready for the journey?" Kel'Thuzad asked. The ponies looked at each other, and at themselves, before answering: "YES!" "Well then, let's get moving." "Wait, before we go, shouldn't we find Twilight first?" Princess Celestia asked. "-Laugh- I could already sense her. Let me just do this first...." Kel'Thuzad raises both of his hands and soon, a portal was introduced. "Let's enter the portal, and save your precious student, Celestia." Anub'arak said. "Agreed. Well, here goes nothing." The ponies, Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak stepped into the portal. They were then transported into a land of west of the Crystal Empire, which is freezing cold for the ponies, but not for Flutterknight, Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak. Then, one of their necromancer's spoke: "Kel'Thuzad, this land is full of resources. We should try to establish a base first." "Alright then." Kel'Thuzad replied. The acolytes then begin establishing a base for their rescue attempt. While it was done, the ponies then look upon to Flutterknight, who was staring back at them. "Uhm....What's the problem?" It was the first time Flutterknight uses her normal voice. "Well, we know that Kel'Thuzad tells us that you are a death knight, having powerful magic levels. Could you show us?" Celestia asked. "Well, in truth, I could only know how to use my sword. I don't know any magics." Flutterknight replied. "I could teach you." Kel'Thuzad said. "How? What magic could I use?" Flutterknight asked in curiosity. "Different kinds of dark magic. First off, I would teach you the basics before the complicated ones." "O..Okay. What's the first?" Flutterknight eagerly asked. "The first and simple one is that you could shoot dark orbs at your opponents. This means you would raise your hands, or hooves, point it at your designated target, concentrate on that particular hoof, and fire the orb. Ready for the testing?" "I think so." After replying, Flutterknight raises her hoof on a tree, and concentrate on her dark magic. A dark orb begins to form, and when it was fully formed, she releases it from her hoof. Moments later, the tree was hit, and withered away seconds later, and what was left was the bark. "Oh my." She exclaimed in great awe. The other ponies were also in shock, while Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak smiled with satisfaction on her. "Well done, young death knight. Now, do you want to learn more?" Kel'Thuzad asked. "Ready as I ever be." she replied in determination. "Now, the second one is that you would need your sword. This particular one could kill a living thing in seconds, and could be use back as a magic enhancement on your sword." "Hold on! So what your saying that this second spell would suck the life of a living thing and use as a magic enhancement or armor on Fluttershy's sword?" Cadence asked. "Certainly. This spell is preferable when needed." Kel'Thuzad replied. "Now, begin the training?" "Absolutely." Flutterknight said. She then raises her sword on one of the trees, and suddenly, an aura of black began to emerge from the tree and move to the sword of Flutterknight. The tree then withered, leaving the aura glowing on Flutterknight's ice sword. She asked for more spells to be taught to her, and Kel'Thuzad agreed. For 10 days, she practices some of the magic a death knight could have, including raising the dead, control the living dead with mind alone, and a few other stuff. Finally, the training of Flutterknight is finished, and the group began to travel again. For 7 days, they march to save Twilight, encountering some dangers, but was instantly repelled. Finally, they reach a cave, and a voice said: "Welcome my old friends. Time for your instant death from this cave, once and for all!" Author's Note Chapter 10 is out! I will be making Chapter 11: The Confrontation and End, and Chapter 12: Goodbyes after the publishing of Chapter 11. Chapter 11: The Confrontation and EndThe voice was not mistaken, it was the voice of Evil Twilight. "Hello again old friends. It's been days since I last saw you guys. Guess what guys? Today is your doom!" The ponies were hurt from their original friend, but they hold their ground. "Young one, if you could hear me, fight your evil spirit within you!" Kel'Thuzad said. But Twilight Night paid no heed to Kel'Thuzad, and said: "Let's fight, shall we?" Rainbow Dash, including Applejack, who wanted to pin down and save their friend, charged in. Big mistake. BIG mistake. As soon as they charged in, Twilight grab them in her telepathic spell, and both of them were suspended in the air. "Let us go!" Applejack pleaded. But Twilight was ignorant, but her ignorance got the best of her. Out of the blue, a powerful swipe got to her muzzle, and she went flying to the wall. Her spell was broken, and Applejack and Rainbow Dash began to fall. Rainbow Dash, being a pegasus, quickly fly to safety but Applejack was still falling. Rainbow Dash then flew to rescue her friend, but before she could rescue, a black aura envelops Applejack, and begins to descend gently. She looks for the source, and quickly founds it. It was Flutterknight! She uses her dark magic just to save her friend. After Applejack touches ground again, she said: "Thank you Flutterknight, for saving me." "It's not a problem." As soon she releases her black aura, she then quickly engages Twilight Night with her ice sword. But it was difficult. Days of training for Twilight were enough for her, and soon, she punches Flutterknight and sends her flying to a wall. Flutterknight was knocked out cold, and Twilight Night trotted towards her, and begins to cast her spell, and said: "Goodbye, old friend." The ponies stood their, wanting to cry, but a miracle happen. Out of the blue, another portal opens, and being, with a sword riding on a skeleton horse. "I knew you wouldn't forsake us." Kel'Thuzad said. "Onward for the Scourge!" Anub'arak said. The undead rejoiced, as their leader, Arthas, began to lead them. Twilight was know dumbstruck at the form of events, failed to realize the very hit of an icy spell on her. Her hooves were frozen, and worse, Flutterknight regains conciousness, and Kel'Thuzad said: "Now Flutterknight!" Flutterknight then raises her ice sword, and pointed it on Twilight. Moments later, a thick black aura surges towards the sword. After a few minutes, it completely deserted Twilight, and Kel'Thuzad commanded: "Shatter the sword!" Flutterknight did what she was told, and shattered her own sword, and Flutterknight now becomes Fluttershy again. "W...What happened?" Twilight asked in confusion. The ponies didn't reply, but hugged Twilight for their joy that their friend is back. *Minutes later* "So are you gonna go back to your home?" Twilight asked. After the battle, the undead begins to pack up. It was prepared moments later, and Kel'Thuzad replied: "Yes." "But how about Flutterk...err...shy?" "She will be fine. She is still reeling from the side-effects, but will recover." Arthas said. "Thank you, for saving my student." Princess Celestia said. "Not a problem. Well, let's go home then." Arthas commanded. "Indeed." The undead Scourge then enters the portal, and when they are all completely in, the portal vanishes. The ponies smiled that these guys were always be remembered.....always, for their great help. Author's Note Chapter 11 is done! Sorry if it is short, Chapter 12: Goodbye is now the thank you chapter. :D Chapter 12: GoodbyeWell, this is the end for the 'Lich of the Scourge' story. I hope you enjoy it and thank you for reading it! Chapter 2: The Chamber"Uhm...Excuse me Mr. Kel'Thuzad, but where is this aura coming from?" Kel'Thuzad turns his head and saw a pink pony, like Pinkie Pie, but with no fluffy hair and has wings. "I will not tell you until you tell your name." "My name is Princess Cadence, for your information." "Ah, I see. Your the ex-foalsitter the young one spoke of." "Yes, now give us that information, or my guards will hunt you when you escape." "Certainly. The aura is coming from that direction." he said, pointing at the throne room. He moved to the throne room, with the ponies following him. He stopped in front of the throne, with ponies wondering what will he do next. Then, he raises his hands, with purple glows emitted on them, and casting that most believe was a spell. Twilight would not imagine a being like him would do magic. Minutes later, the throne split in half, revealing a chamber. The ponies would have never thought of that before, not even Twilight Sparkle or Princess Cadence. Kel'Thuzad went inside the chamber, with a mob of curious mares following. "This chamber, if I may talk Princess, leads to the aura that I was sensing. It is powerful, almost like it was here and not touched for a thousand years." Kel'Thuzad said. "That powerful?" Twilight asked. "Yes, but I think more powerful that we could ever imagined." But before Twilight could reply to Kel'Thuzad, he stopped in front of something. The ponies watch at Kel'Thuzad approach the crystal wall. He realized that there was something behind it, and when he wipe some of the fog, a pony face appeared, with stripes in it's body. Wanting to meet this pony, Kel'Thuzad again uses a spell, with Twilight wondering. He said: "Let this power shatter the crystal, and release the body from within!" In a second, the crystal wall and comes forth a pony. He was unconcious and Kel'Thuzad tries to wonder why a pony, trapped in a crystal wall, was here. Author's Note Chapter 2 is here guys! Sorry if it's short, and I know some of you guys hate short chapters. But hey! Chapter 3 would be created, but since I would be busy of school duties, just leave a comment for suggestions and all. Any crazy or weird suggestions. Or, a suggestion of a story again. :D I would have time tomorrow, but not that much.
Chapter 1: PrologueKel'Thuzad, the lich who serves King Arthas', is now governing his kingdom until his faithful return. "I have faith in you, my king. Someday, however, your blade, Frostmourne, will guide you to the Lich King." He returns to his base, with a necromancer waiting for him. "Excuse me, my lord. I have been sensing a great dimensional energy near that mountain." "A great dimensional energy? It sounds promising, but can be dangerous. I shall go there and investigate." "No my lord! It could be dangerous! Let us escort you." "No, I could handle on my own." "As you wish." Kel'Thuzad traveled to search for that mystical dimensional aura. For days, he searched for it, with no luck. Then suddenly, a lavender colored portal opened up and teleported him to an unknown location. Before he was teleported, he said: "In the name of Ner'zhul and Arthas!" *At the Frozen North of Equestria, Crystal Empire* "Come on Twilight! You have been practicing that dimensional spell all day! You need some rest." a cyan colored pony said. Twilight is practicing this spell for the entire day, hoping for success. Exaggerated of failures, she tries again and again, and comes up nothing. "I will not give-up Rainbow Dash! Even if it takes me a whole week!" Twilight said in determination. "But-" But before Dash could speak his sentence completely, a portal just come up, with Twilight smiling. Then, they do not expect what they saw. A being has been brought forth, and it was terrifying. It has a body, of course, but in an undead manner. He has no eyes, but has glowing white on the pupils. Rainbow Dash fainted, but Twilight stood her ground, but shaking in fear. At last, she asked the being, with the portal gone. "Who are....you?" The being watch her, causing her to shake violently in fear. "Before I could answer your question, who are you?" "I'm Twilight Sparkle, personal student of Princess Celestia, and the Element of Magic." 'Element of Magic? That's I could sense strong magical auras in her.' Kel'Thuzad thought "I'm Kel'Thuzad, the lich of the undead Scourge, and the summoner." "Uhm....Well, hello there Mr Kel'Thuzad. I don't mind, but you just crossed my dimensional spell training." "I don't think so. I got teleported here by your magic, but let me tell you this: there is a delicate balance of white and black magic. For you, young one, it's white magic while me it's dark magic. By the way, who was with you when I arrived?" "Uhm....Rainbow Dash." "I'm sorry for her. By the way, I would like to meet your 'princess' here." "Sorry, she's on uhm-" But before Twilight could answer, the door swung open and comes her brother. "Twily, I'm gonna-What are you doing with this....creature?!" "Brother, please, don't hurt him. He got teleported here by my magic." "Yeah right. Get away from him!" the brother of Twilight starts to cast his spell. "Stand down you fool! I'm not a threat to you and your....sister." But he didn't care. He casted his spell on Kel'Thuzad, but didn't work. What was even more astonishing to him, this creature didn't get hurt from his spell "You have been fooling around, and I say the truth, but you didn't respond! You must be scourged from the face of this planet!" He was shocked when the being fires an icy spell, sending his hooves frozen, and cannot move. "You will be frozen, to the might of the Scourge." "Pleas! Don't hurt my brother!" Kel'Thuzad turns his head and saw Twilight crying, begging not to kill his brother. He focuses on her brother a little and unfroze him. "But...I don't understand." "There's vile circumstances to choose from. Now come, I need to know the place." "But before that, could you wake up Rainbow Dash?" Twilight asked. "I can't. But you can." Twilight focuses on waking up on Rainbow Dash, which, in turn, wakes up, only to see the very same creature. "Who....Who are you?!" "Dash, just calm down. His a magic user." "Oh." "Hello again. Sorry if I ever fainted you. By the way, you could call me Kel'Thuzad, the summoner." "Well, hello there Kel'Thuzad!" "Well then, were are we gonna start? Do you have more friends?" Kel'Thuzad asked. "Well, yes. They are down stairs, helping my ex-foalsitter, Princess Cadence." "Escort me down, because I would not expect any warm welcomes." "Just follow me." The 3 duos goes down to the stairs, with other ponies seeing the vile being with them. Some ponies fainted to this creature, while others is getting angry. Where is this creature come from? "Hello. I would like to know for everybody that we have....uhm......a strange visitor today." Twilight announced. The ponies were now staring at the strange being, a very strange and horrifying one. Nothing in their lives that they see a being with this....structure. A pink pony with fluffy hair and tail asked. "Who are you mister?" she said with a look of curiosity. "I'm Kel'Thuzad, the summoner and the lich of the Scourge." "Uhm....My name is Pinkie Pie." "Well hello there Pinkie Pie." The ponies are now staring at Kel'Thuzad, hoping to catch anything suspicious. Then, he spoke. "I could sense something is off here in this place. A magical aura I sensed I supposed." The ponies were utterly terrified that Kel'Thuzad spoke this. What is this magical aura? And what was this sense? Author's Note Well, this Chapter 1. Pls comment below for any mistakes, wanting me to add additional information, or anything else. It will very appreciated. :D
Chapter 3: InterrogationThe ponies wondered why Kel'Thuzad makes an astonishing discovery of a pony, trapped in the crystal wall. Suddenly, the pony began to wake up, with it's eyes focused on them. "Who are you, strange one?" Kel'Thuzad asked. The pony thinks about the question of the strange being, before replying. "I'm Garlock, a warlock. I have troubles though on remembering on my memories. Who are you then?" "I'm Kel'Thuzad, the summoner and the very one who helped you escaping that crystal wall." "Nice to meet you Mr. Kel'Thuzad. I have a spellbook though, which I lost a long time ago." "I have also a spellbook, it's from Medivh, the Last Guardian. His lost spellbook is very powerful, even powerful than I, or us ever realized. His knowledge in demons are staggering." "Very interesting. I supposed-" Garlock was cut off by Kel'Thuzad, who turned to Twilight Sparkle and said "I could sense a very powerful magic on you, young one. However, this power could corrupt you in any time it wants." Twilight gulped at what Kel'Thuzad said. "What do you mean?" "Like I said, you have great magical potential. But one single misstep, then you will corrupted, deep within your soul." The ponies shruddered in shock as Kel'Thuzad spoke this. Then, an orange colored pony with a cowboy hat appeared and asked "Those that mean our friend here will be like you?" "No. But, she will be different. She will embrace dark magic, and corrupting her is much more easier. You see, the stronger you are with magic, you are in more danger of being corrupted." "Those that mean, I will be evil?" Twilight then asked. "Yes, only if you are corrupted. You must watch your step, young one." Kel'Thuzad warned. Twilight bear the warning he said earlier. "Excuse me, but what are you gonna do to me?" Garlock asked. "It will begin tomorrow, strange one." *That night* Kel'Thuzad looked at the night sky, thinking of his king, Arthas, back in Azeroth. "May I have a word with you?" Kel'Thuzad turned his head and saw Twilight, then replied "You may." "I was actually very interested in your....magic. I was not thinking other races doing something like that." "The magic I was using is highly kept from me, so I could use it any time I want to." "I have to ask: what will be the corruption inside of me?" Kel'Thuzad wondered, then spoke "Your corruption would be vengeance." "But, why vengeance?!" Twilight stummered "Your vengeance would fall under two things, young one. First off, you're angry because of a certain event that will change your life....forever. The second it will be that you scower the country for powerful magic, to kill the beast that you are hunting for. Turns out, dark magic has grown full on you, enveloping you to darkness, until you have other emotions, like hate." "That....That will never happen!" "But fate will never be altered. Sad to say, but it is true." Twilight bowed her head in shame, not wanting to hear the dark truth. "But, you will have time to change the dark fate." Twilight then glimmered in hope, hoping to find an answer to this....dark truth. "Now rest young one. We have a lot of things to do." "Ok." *Next day* Twilight woke up from her bed, and prepares to go down when Kel'Thuzad's warning is now in her head, spinning like a tornado. She dismisses it, thinking it's just a pipe dream. She goes down, and saw Kel'Thuzad watching as Garlock proceeds to the throne room. "Having a nice rest?" she asked. Kel'Thuzad turned his head, saw Twilight, and replied. "I didn't rest young one. I was reading my spellbook all night." Uhm...Ok." "Now hush, we begin the interrogation." Garlock moves in the throne room, with Princess Cadence and Shining Armor sitting. Next to them where Twilight and Kel'Thuzad. "By orders of the princess: you could begin the interrogation." a guards pony declared. "You, Garlock, a pony who has been trapped in the crystal wall, explain yourself." "I am Garlock, a warlock in the ancient Crystal Order. I don't know why I was trapped there, but it was for obvious reasons." "Are you lying to us?" Twilight asked. "No, I'm telling the truth from my fractured past. Pity, I could still remember some, but not all." Garlock replied. "Kel'Thuzad, what do you have to say?" Cadence asked the lich "Honestly, he's speaking the truth. Through his eyes, I could see his past when he his on his 'Crystal Order'." The reply from Kel'Thuzad shocked the ponies, not at least to Twilight herself. "You! How could....you?!" Armor now exclaimed in rage. But before Kel'Thuzad could reply, a messenger came. "A letter from Canterlot, it's for you, Miss Twilight." Twilight took the letter and read it. After a few minutes of reading it, she gasped in horror, with an emotion she must control: vengeance. "Let me read it, young one." Kel'Thuzad asked. Twilight look at him, before pass it to him, and he read it, and was surprise by it. Author's Note Chapter 3 is finally finished! Sorry if it is a half-short and half-long chapter, with Chapter 4: The Letter, being the shortest. However, Chapter 5: Controlling Emotion, will be written shortly after Chapter 4. I hope you enjoyed the story! If errors are spotted, pls comment so I could correct in a hinch.
Chapter 4: The LetterDear Twilight, My humble student, sorry for being passive, but Applejack's sister, Apple Bloom, has been severely injured by an unknown pony. Her injury, including severe scars and bruises, has been studied this afternoon and might be studied for a while, and the culprit, who was in a cloak, must still be found. I'm sorry Twilight, it was just that I was busy from my loyal matters. I'm truly sorry, and please forgive me. Now, I'm also hearing rumors that a strange being has appeared suddenly in the Crystal Empire. They say that it can do magic. I want to see this being, and once again, I'm sorry for the tragedy. Applejack's sister is in the Ponyville Hospital, and the doctors said that she will be fine. However, they say it will take days for her injuries to recover. For that, please bear in mind that you must inform your friends. Thank you and please understand this. By your faithful teacher, Princess Celestia Author's Note Chapter 4: The Letter is here! Sorry if the letter is short, that's why this chapter is the shortest. But don't worry, this unforgiving chapter will be overshadowed by the other chapters, including it's predecessors.
Chapter 5: Controlling EmotionTwilight, who's head bears the word 'vengeance', is now silently hissing in rage. How could Celestia failed Applejack's sister, one of her loyal subjects? Her mind is now boiling, with her horn glowing with anger. "Young one-" But before Kel'Thuzad could finish his sentence, Twilight put a guard pinned on the wall, and walks out of the throne room. "Guards, stop Twilight!" Cadence ordered. As soon it was said, 4 guards was on the way of Twilight, who was in a spree of revenge. The guards advanced, but was pinned down by Twilight. As soon Twilight walks out of the Crystal castle, a voice was heard, threatening "Keep yourself intact, young one, or be scourged to death!" Twilight turned, and saw Kel'Thuzad, ready for something. "What could you be possibly to do to stop me?" Twilight said in a menacing laugh. Her friends, brother, and ex-foalsitter gasps in horror at what they saw on the characteristics of Twilight. Her eyes are now snake-like, with a black mist rising. But before they could fully examine Twilight, Kel'Thuzad raises his hand, readies for a another spell, with Twilight readying also, and said: "I summon thee the dead, and hold her for eternity!" Just as suddenly, 4 boney hands rises up and grabs Twilight, much to her surprise. They grab her hooves, and locked her from her original position. Kel'Thuzad begins walking towards Twilight, with her friends and brother thought that he will end her.....personally. Twilight now saw his eyes, looking back at her. She commanded several seconds later: "Release me! Release me at once!" But before Twilight could get an answer, Kel'Thuzad put an ice spell, getting her to feel dizzy and then fall asleep. He then ordered that she must be in a room so that he could something important. "What are you are gonna do with Twilight?" ask the grey colored pony. "I will do something important. Her corruption alone could kill anyone in a matter of seconds. You must hold posture, or face the wrath of the Scourge!" The ponies are now utterly confused, but continued straight to their own ways. *At Twilight's room* Twilight woke up from her vengeance seek in the morning a while ago. Her head still aches, with Kel'Thuzad beside her. "What...What are you gonna do to me?" "I'm going to ask you one question: Why?" Twilight wondered at the being's question. "Let me rephrase: Why did you let yourself be controlled by vengeance?" "I....I...I got angry." "Your reason why you got angry?" "I....I....." "You cannot control your emotions, young one. It's a dangerous play for you, one more any your sanity is gone, forever." Twilight got shocked by this....evil revelation. 'How could I lose my sanity by some vengeance?!' "I...I promise that it won't happen again." "I doubt that you will keep your promise. But I have faith that you will succeed." "Thank you, Kel'Thuzad." *Later* Kel'Thuzad walks out of Twilight's room, only to be approached by 7 ponies, with worried looks on their faces. "What did you do to Twilight?" the pink one said. "Nothing. I just interrogated her to control her new emotion." "And what exactly is this new emotion, being?" Cadence asked with a raging look on her face. "Her new emotion is vengeance. She is angry that Princess Celestia didn't defend a certain one named Apple Bloom. She is gravely injured, but-" "Mah sister is injured?!" Applejack said. "You must be Applejack, and yes. She is injured, but the princess assured that she will be fine." "Back to the topic, why did Twilight become so....evil-looking with vengeance?" Shining said. "Ah, that evil emotion. I could make someone corrupted, with a another emotion helping it: anger." "Why? Should she be angry?" "I said it before, and I will say it again: Celestia didn't defend Apple Bloom because of some loyal matters." "Yah mean that mah sister has not been defended by Celestia who has loyal matter?!" "By other means yes." But before the ponies could answer, Twilight walks out of her room, with a feeling of something odd in her face. "Hello, darling. I must say it is pretty devastating to know that Celestia failed." the grey colored pony spoke out. "It is...for me. Right now, I'm probably getting dizzy because of my head." "Is there anything wrong?" Shining asked. "None, my brother. It's just there is something wrong with me. I feel like....the evil inside of me has arisen." Her words were listened by her friends, brother and ex-foalsitter. But when they heard the last sentence, their spine shivered with cold. "Do not fear young one. I do hope that evil of yours did not consume much." "-Laugh- I supposed so." Her friends sighed in relief, only to be broken by a scream of pain by Twilight. "AAAARRRRRGGGGHHHH! My head! It hurts!" she exclaimed. "Young one, get a hold yourself! Your evil self is now claiming your sanity!" Kel'Thuzad said. But it was too late. Twilight is now enveloped in a mist of black, with her friends and brother watch in horror. 'It is now the time for Dark and Light to battle again. If only Arthas and the Scourge was here, what will I do?' Kel'Thuzad asked in his mind. Author's Note Chapter 5 is out! Finally a long chapter(sort-of). Chapter 6 will be out soon.
Chapter 6: Twilight's CorruptionAs she was enveloped in a cloud of black, Twilight's head began to turn, as she saw nothing but total darkness. "Why am I here?!" "-Chuckle- Hello my dear child." "W...Who are you? What do you want from me?!" "Oh nothing. I just wanted to take control of you, and you will learn great knowledge of magic and power." Twilight think of it a bit, before answering: "You just wanted me to become evil. But no! I will not have you take control over my body!" "Oh, what great courage and determination you have. Too bad you will be weak because you just learn basic mastery magic." "What?!" "What you have learned is just the basics of mastery magic. Let me help you, at least to learn new magic of advancements." "But...But..." "Let me help you at least." The dark being get inside of her mind, getting her to learn new magic....dark magic to say at least. She learned them in a flash, and they said "Now, we are one" *Outside the Black mist* Her friends and brother is now shaking in fear, not realizing what will happen next. Kel'Thuzad, a magic user himself, knew it was dark magic, but it was more sinister. Suddenly, the mist exploded and comes out Twilight. Kel'Thuzad shields himself with an ice shield, while Shining and the Mane 6(minus Twilight) was enveloped in an aura of magic, casts by Princess Cadence herself. The explosion dies out, and comes out Twilight. "Twily! Are you-" Shining didn't begin his sentence when he, and the Mane 6, examined Twilight's characteristics. She was taller, her mane darker and her hair, well, purple with white streaks on it. Her cutie mark, from a purple star-shaped one, has become four-pointed black star. It was accompanied by two other things, a sword and a bone. "Twily, what happened to you?" Twilight opened her eyes, blinking for a few seconds, then said "Hahaha! Twilight Sparkle is no more! Today I shall be called as Twilight Night!" "You naive fool! You have plunged yourself to the lands of darkness." Kel'Thuzad said. Her friends and brother, however, we're looking at Twilight at a mix of horror and rage on their faces. How could Twilight become evil? Nothing is certain. "Twi! Get a hold yahself!" Applejack said, hoping for an answer. But instead, Twilight tossed her over to one of the pillars, knocking her out. "Dear, how dare you become an evil being?!" Rarity recklessly exclaimed in rage. But Kel'Thuzad, who studied Twilight's magic aura, he's becoming suspicious about Twilight's new powers. 'I dearly hope that the Scourge is here.' he thought. Twilight walks towards her remaining friends, who are now raging to know who would done this to Twilight. "I will get this guys!" the cyan colored pegasus said. "Wait Rainbow Dash!" the yellow colored pegasus cried. But it was too late. Rainbow already charged to the corrupted Twilight, ready to knock her out. Unfortunately, Twilight already grabbed her with her magic, and pinned her to a wall. "It's time for your death!" But before she could cast a 'death' spell, she was hit by an ice spell, turned around and saw none other than Kel'Thuzad. "Stop you mindless one! You must be in control of yourself!" "Hah! Have you heard it? Twilight Sparkle is no more!" "Then I will have you scourged right now!" "Oh, so it seems." But before she could attack Kel'Thuzad, a portal just opened and come out other beings. Author's Note Chapter 6 is out! Ok guys. I'm not going to the write-publish instinct. Time for old-fashion!
Chapter 7: The ScourgeAs soon as the portals opens, beings not from Equestria like Kel'Thuzad comes out and one of them shouted: "Onward for the Scourge! Save Kel'Thuzad in Arthas' name!" "Who the-" Before he could finish his sentence, he and his colleagues are fighting the corrupted Twilight. After blows after blows, she said: "I will return, and dark the land forever!" Twilight said in evil pride She then turned into a black mist and then was dispersed, with the Mane 6(minus Applejack and Twilight) and Princess Cadence and Shining Armor saw in horror. Then they heard a conversation: "I'm grateful of your assistance, mighty one. Who are you?" "No heed for the grateful tone, lich, I am Anub'arak, ancient king of Azjol-Nerub. I was sent by the Lich King Arthas to know your disappearance, with the help of his forces, and when of your necromancer's talk about you going into that mountain, we search it and found the portal. Obviously, it actually transported us here." "-Laugh- I was loyal to Arthas, and paid me back with this. I'm grateful about it." "No heed for it, lich. Now, what are these.....horses are?" "They are called ponies, Anub'arak. They are the one who transported me here when I investigated the portal itself." "Interesting. Suffice to say, do they have names? Or they have named by you?" "They're talking ponies Anub'arak. Obviously, they have their names." "Hm...I want to know their names Kel'Thuzad. Can I know their names?" "Before that, I would like to know there were 8 of them. But one them, Twilight Sparkle, a lavender colored pony, has become evil. She said she will darken the land, much as the Scourge would do. Here, meet them." Kel'Thuzad pointed out at the remaining 7 ponies. One of them, a pink colored one, introduces herself and said: "Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie. I heard that your name was Anub something." "Let me reassure your memories young one. My name is Anub'arak." "Ok Anub'arak!" Next one was the grey colored one. "Hello. My name is Rarity, a fashion designer of Ponyville. I must say, darling, you are a big one." Anub'arak just nodded and moved to a yellow colored pony. She was typically, as Anub'arak saw it, as shy. "Who are you, young one?" "I'm.....Fluttershy." "That fits for your personality, young one." He then moves towards the cyan colored pegasus. "Who are you?" "Who are you then?!" "Perhaps you aren't listening. Here: I'm Anub'arak, ancient king of Azjol-Nerub." The pegasus widened in realization, as she was talking with royalty. "Sorry. By the way, I'm Rainbow Dash. Greatest flyer of Equestria!" "Nice to meet you. By the way, who is that orange colored one over there?" "That's Applejack. She was knocked out cold by Twilight." "I'm sorry for that one." "That's ok. By the way, are you going to save Kel'Thuzad?" Pinkie Pie asked. "Yes. However, because your friend there becomes inexplicably evil, we will help you to restore your friend. But it needs a powerful incantation to restore her." "I think we have that incantation." a voice said. They turned their heads around and saw none other than Princess Celestia and her sister, Princess Luna. "Princess Celestia and Luna!" the ponies yelled in joy. The undead were in mere surprise to hear the voice of royalty. "Hello, beings. I'm Princess Celestia, co-ruler of Equestria with my sister, Luna." Kel'Thuzad steps forward, with Luna shivering in fear of the being. "Hello. I'm Kel'Thuzad, personal servant of King Arthas and the Scourge, and the summoner." "And I'm Anub'arak, ancient king of Azjol-Nerub." another being stepped forward and said. The princess were stunned by the names, but continued on anyway. "I heard that my personal student, Twilight Sparkle, has become evil?" Celestia asked. "Suffice to say, yes." Kel'Thuzad replied. Celestia had the feeling of guilt. "The only thing that could heal her is a powerful incantation from a powerful being. However, this magic could be attained by highly skilled magicians, necromancers, sorcerers and sorceress'." Anub'arak added. "We got the Elements of Harmony. Should that work?" "No. She possess dark magic, and another dark magic would heal her. I'm a magic user of darkness, but 2 others would be useful as well." Kel'Thuzad pointed out. "So only dark magic would heal my student?" Celestia asked uncertain. "I believe so, yes." Kel'Thuzad said. The ponies are now hit like a brick wall, and bowed their heads in grief, Fluttershy in particular. But unknown to them, including Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak, she has someone in her mind, ready to take any price just to save Twilight. Author's Note Chapter 7 is out! Another half-long chapter. Chapter 8: Death Knight Fluttershy, will be out in a few days prior.
Chapter 8: Death Knight FluttershyAs night falls, the ponies went to sleep in their respective quarters to discuss importantly with Anub'arak and Kel'Thuzad how to turn back Twilight to her old self. Fluttershy had been sleeping in her quarters, and didn't sleep well quite enough. She had horrible nightmares about her friends. Nightmare's of eternal darkness, her being evil also. She is not able to sleep that well. But, moments later, when she is still sleeping, she heard a voice at the back of her head, saying: "Well, Fluttershy, I supposed your wondering what to do next, have you?" "Well, no. But, she is more powerful. How are we gonna suppose to defeat her, without the Elements of Harmony?" "I heard from Kel'Thuzad that dark magic is the only cure, and needs 2 more people to do it, right?" "Well, yes. But, I'm not a unicorn or alicorn just to have the arcane magic of darkness." "Well, I could fix that." "Really? But how?" "I will give you that arcane magic, with a price of course." "What is the price?" Fluttershy asked nervously in fear. "The price is that the power will scar your soul. You will become something that nopony ever realize." "Your referring that the price is my soul. Then, I don't want that! Even though it's for my friend!" "Have you ever realize that Twilight has becoming even stronger each day, have you?" "No, but-" "Then take this, and you will have the power, with Kel'Thuzad, to bring your friend back." Then, a swirl of black mist appeared in front of Fluttershy's face, with an ice sword sticking out of it. "Take it, and the power is yours." Fluttershy didn't resist the offer, so she took the ice sword, just for the sake of her friend. Immediately, the mist surrounded her for a few minutes, before dispersing to reveal the new Fluttershy, uttering: "Now, we are one!" She then stepped out and saw Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak, and walks to them. *At the balcony, the same time* "I would feel bad for Twilight Sparkle. A personal student of princess, only to be transformed into evil." Anub'arak. "Yes. However, with black magic to only cure for her, it's even more difficult to heal her." Kel'Thuzad replied. "I would help you." The two undead beings turn their heads and saw Fluttershy, but she was different. Her eyes has become black, with blue pupils. She wears death knight armor, with her mane and hair paler to their original color. She also carries an ice sword, like Arthas' runeblade Frostmourne. Her hair, although paler pink, has some streaks of other colors as well. "Good evening, gentlemen. I supposed you were surprised at my new form." "Not at all." Both of them replied. "Well then. I supposed that we should discuss a plan to get Twilight rescued, right?" "I think so. But we will discuss it tomorrow morning." "You realize that Twilight will find something that could kill the one that got her evil in the first place?" "Perhaps. Regardless, we must speak it out tomorrow. And Fluttershy." "Yes?" "Get yourself hidden because they will think you are evil as well." "With pleasure." *The next morning* The ponies wake up from their respective rooms, and readied themselves for the meeting. They then trotted to the meeting hall. After a few minutes, Princess declared: "Let the meeting begin. You first, Luna." "Thank you, sister. Now, as we know, Twilight Sparkle has become evil. Now Kel'Thuzad....Wait, where is Fluttershy, Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak? They should have been here right now." "Yeah. Where are those 3?" Rarity asked. But before they could guess the question, a guard came up and spoke to Princess Cadence, which widened in shock. "Why? What's the matter?" Celestia asked. "T...Twilight is here." "What?!" The ponies ran towards the main gate, and saw Twilight beating up multiple guard ponies with her dark magic. Princess Luna then shouted: "Stop!" "Oh hello there Princess Celestia. I supposed I would now beat you up with my new magic, do I?" "I-" Luna began but was cut off by Celestia. "Never! I will not let you harm them!" "Come then. You will now know that I'm powerful than you are." The two ponies then charged their powerful spells, then fired at each other. As the battle intensified, Twilight has the upper hand. With every passing minute, Princess Celestia began to weaken. Then, she was flying towards the wall and hit it. Everypony didn't believe it. Celestia got beaten by her own personal student. Twilight then moved towards Celestia, and a spear emerges from her black mist. "Goodbye, Celestia." Celestia closed her eyes, waiting for her end. But before Twilight could kill her, an ice sword breaks the spear from her grip, flying it towards one of the pillars. Angered, Twilight turned her head, only to find somepony like Fluttershy, but the colors are paler. She holds the ice sword. "Who are you pony?" "-Laugh- I thought you'd never asked. I am Fluttershy, only know just to stop you from killing Princess Celestia." "Fool! You will be killed." "-Chuckle- Let's fight then." Twilight then got a dark sword, and the two battle it out. The ponies are staring in shock of the battle, with the 2 exchange blows with each other. Twilight soon wears out, and Fluttershy lands a good punch on her face, sending Twilight towards one the walls. "You will pay for this!" Twilight's horn starts to glow, but before she could cast the spell, an ice spell hurls towards her, and freezes her horn. "Stop you mindless one!" "Onward for the Scourge! Stop her in Arthas' name!" Twilight turned her head and saw Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak, with their faithful soldiers. She then saw Fluttershy, hissed and said: "This isn't over!" She turned into a black mist and went away. The ponies that watched were in awe. Rarity then move towards Fluttershy and asked "What happened to you dear?" "I will answer that question later. Right now, we will need to prepare." Fluttershy replied with Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak nodding in agreement. Author's Note Chapter 8: Death Knight Fluttershy is finished! Finally a thousand word chapter. Chapter 9: Realization and Preparation would be out soon.
Chapter 9: Realization and Preparation"So, Fluttershy, what do you call yourself with that....thing?" Rainbow Dash asked. Fluttershy thinks about it, before answering: "I don't know. Kel'Thuzad, do you know?" "Well yes. They are known as death knights. They wield incredible amounts of magic." "But why do they need swords, like Fluttershy has?" Pinkie Pie asked. "That I do not know young one. Even my extensive knowledge of undead magic don't know." Kel'Thuzad replied. "Well at least we all know that Fluttershy has saved Princess Celestia. By the way, where is the princess?" Cadence asked. "She is on her quarters, guarded by Princess Luna." Anub'arak replied. The ponies looked at each other with satisfaction, and moved towards their respective quarters to prepare themselves for the meeting. Meanwhile, Kel'Thuzad, Anub'arak and Flutterknight moved to the meeting hall. "I supposed we ready ourselves for the meeting." Anub'arak suggested. "Certainly, but I doubt that the 2 princesses would listen to us." Kel'Thuzad pointed out in reply. "I'm sure that they will listen to us." Flutterknight replied. "I do hope so." Kel'Thuzad. A few moments later, the royal door and goes in the Mane 6, the 2 Princesses, Princess Cadence and Shining Armor. They take their positions, including the 3, to discuss the anomalies. Princess Luna then declare: "I hereby declare this meeting open!" "As we know, my personal student has become evil." Celestia said. "Yes, and we now know from our fellow, Kel'Thuzad, that dark magic is the only thing that would cure her." Cadence added. "But with Fluttershy with her erm....dark powers we could do it." Luna pointed out. "It's Flutterknight now and yes, but you do realize that she will hunt more power to kill us, do you?" Flutterknight asked. The ponies are now utterly confused, except for Celestia and Luna who realized what she meant. "How are we gonna prepare? Without the Elements of Harmony, we are powerless." Luna said. "I know one person who has been 'reformed', do you?" The princesses looked at each other, with Celestia turning back to Flutterknight and asked: "Don't you mean Discord?" "Yes. He is the god of chaos, and dark magic uses also chaos magic." "It could be possible, but we need time." Kel'Thuzad suggested. "Agreed. Well, that's settled. Everypony! Get back to your quarters and prepare. Kel'Thuzad, Anub'arak and Flutter...knight, including you sister, stay. We have a little talk." The ponies then nodded and returned to their quarters, with 3 ponies and 2 beings left behind. After a long dead silence, Anub'arak asked: "What do you want to chat at, princess?" "About Flutterknight, why is she picked as a....death knight right?" "Let me explain. A voice echoed from my head, and we have a conversation. After that, a black mist appeared in front of me, with the ice sword I'm carrying right now sticking out. Wanting to save Twilight, I took it, and the black mist swirled around me. After a few minutes, it has disappeared and now the current form you are now seeing." Flutterknight said. "Choices are hard, young one. Choosing to save your friend by a cost, or abandoning her is a tough one. Hard times can give you a panic." Kel'Thuzad said. "Yup. But I'm happy because I could now save Twilight from her plight." "Well, if that's settled, let us prepare. We have a long road ahead of us." Anub'arak said. All of them agreed and moved to their respective quarters. Author's Note Chapter 9 is done! If you have read the notifications, then 'Pacific Rim' will be submitted after a 1k word chapter of 2 chapters are finished. If you see any grammar or any other mistakes from this chapter and the 'Pacific Rim' story, I will definatly fix it.
Chapter 10: Travel and PracticeThe day was finally anticipated. The day that Twilight will be freed from evil plight. The Mane 6, Shining Armor and the Princesses all gear up to travel where Twilight would be hiding. After hours of preparations, the ponies meet Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak. "Is everyone ready for the journey?" Kel'Thuzad asked. The ponies looked at each other, and at themselves, before answering: "YES!" "Well then, let's get moving." "Wait, before we go, shouldn't we find Twilight first?" Princess Celestia asked. "-Laugh- I could already sense her. Let me just do this first...." Kel'Thuzad raises both of his hands and soon, a portal was introduced. "Let's enter the portal, and save your precious student, Celestia." Anub'arak said. "Agreed. Well, here goes nothing." The ponies, Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak stepped into the portal. They were then transported into a land of west of the Crystal Empire, which is freezing cold for the ponies, but not for Flutterknight, Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak. Then, one of their necromancer's spoke: "Kel'Thuzad, this land is full of resources. We should try to establish a base first." "Alright then." Kel'Thuzad replied. The acolytes then begin establishing a base for their rescue attempt. While it was done, the ponies then look upon to Flutterknight, who was staring back at them. "Uhm....What's the problem?" It was the first time Flutterknight uses her normal voice. "Well, we know that Kel'Thuzad tells us that you are a death knight, having powerful magic levels. Could you show us?" Celestia asked. "Well, in truth, I could only know how to use my sword. I don't know any magics." Flutterknight replied. "I could teach you." Kel'Thuzad said. "How? What magic could I use?" Flutterknight asked in curiosity. "Different kinds of dark magic. First off, I would teach you the basics before the complicated ones." "O..Okay. What's the first?" Flutterknight eagerly asked. "The first and simple one is that you could shoot dark orbs at your opponents. This means you would raise your hands, or hooves, point it at your designated target, concentrate on that particular hoof, and fire the orb. Ready for the testing?" "I think so." After replying, Flutterknight raises her hoof on a tree, and concentrate on her dark magic. A dark orb begins to form, and when it was fully formed, she releases it from her hoof. Moments later, the tree was hit, and withered away seconds later, and what was left was the bark. "Oh my." She exclaimed in great awe. The other ponies were also in shock, while Kel'Thuzad and Anub'arak smiled with satisfaction on her. "Well done, young death knight. Now, do you want to learn more?" Kel'Thuzad asked. "Ready as I ever be." she replied in determination. "Now, the second one is that you would need your sword. This particular one could kill a living thing in seconds, and could be use back as a magic enhancement on your sword." "Hold on! So what your saying that this second spell would suck the life of a living thing and use as a magic enhancement or armor on Fluttershy's sword?" Cadence asked. "Certainly. This spell is preferable when needed." Kel'Thuzad replied. "Now, begin the training?" "Absolutely." Flutterknight said. She then raises her sword on one of the trees, and suddenly, an aura of black began to emerge from the tree and move to the sword of Flutterknight. The tree then withered, leaving the aura glowing on Flutterknight's ice sword. She asked for more spells to be taught to her, and Kel'Thuzad agreed. For 10 days, she practices some of the magic a death knight could have, including raising the dead, control the living dead with mind alone, and a few other stuff. Finally, the training of Flutterknight is finished, and the group began to travel again. For 7 days, they march to save Twilight, encountering some dangers, but was instantly repelled. Finally, they reach a cave, and a voice said: "Welcome my old friends. Time for your instant death from this cave, once and for all!" Author's Note Chapter 10 is out! I will be making Chapter 11: The Confrontation and End, and Chapter 12: Goodbyes after the publishing of Chapter 11.
Chapter 11: The Confrontation and EndThe voice was not mistaken, it was the voice of Evil Twilight. "Hello again old friends. It's been days since I last saw you guys. Guess what guys? Today is your doom!" The ponies were hurt from their original friend, but they hold their ground. "Young one, if you could hear me, fight your evil spirit within you!" Kel'Thuzad said. But Twilight Night paid no heed to Kel'Thuzad, and said: "Let's fight, shall we?" Rainbow Dash, including Applejack, who wanted to pin down and save their friend, charged in. Big mistake. BIG mistake. As soon as they charged in, Twilight grab them in her telepathic spell, and both of them were suspended in the air. "Let us go!" Applejack pleaded. But Twilight was ignorant, but her ignorance got the best of her. Out of the blue, a powerful swipe got to her muzzle, and she went flying to the wall. Her spell was broken, and Applejack and Rainbow Dash began to fall. Rainbow Dash, being a pegasus, quickly fly to safety but Applejack was still falling. Rainbow Dash then flew to rescue her friend, but before she could rescue, a black aura envelops Applejack, and begins to descend gently. She looks for the source, and quickly founds it. It was Flutterknight! She uses her dark magic just to save her friend. After Applejack touches ground again, she said: "Thank you Flutterknight, for saving me." "It's not a problem." As soon she releases her black aura, she then quickly engages Twilight Night with her ice sword. But it was difficult. Days of training for Twilight were enough for her, and soon, she punches Flutterknight and sends her flying to a wall. Flutterknight was knocked out cold, and Twilight Night trotted towards her, and begins to cast her spell, and said: "Goodbye, old friend." The ponies stood their, wanting to cry, but a miracle happen. Out of the blue, another portal opens, and being, with a sword riding on a skeleton horse. "I knew you wouldn't forsake us." Kel'Thuzad said. "Onward for the Scourge!" Anub'arak said. The undead rejoiced, as their leader, Arthas, began to lead them. Twilight was know dumbstruck at the form of events, failed to realize the very hit of an icy spell on her. Her hooves were frozen, and worse, Flutterknight regains conciousness, and Kel'Thuzad said: "Now Flutterknight!" Flutterknight then raises her ice sword, and pointed it on Twilight. Moments later, a thick black aura surges towards the sword. After a few minutes, it completely deserted Twilight, and Kel'Thuzad commanded: "Shatter the sword!" Flutterknight did what she was told, and shattered her own sword, and Flutterknight now becomes Fluttershy again. "W...What happened?" Twilight asked in confusion. The ponies didn't reply, but hugged Twilight for their joy that their friend is back. *Minutes later* "So are you gonna go back to your home?" Twilight asked. After the battle, the undead begins to pack up. It was prepared moments later, and Kel'Thuzad replied: "Yes." "But how about Flutterk...err...shy?" "She will be fine. She is still reeling from the side-effects, but will recover." Arthas said. "Thank you, for saving my student." Princess Celestia said. "Not a problem. Well, let's go home then." Arthas commanded. "Indeed." The undead Scourge then enters the portal, and when they are all completely in, the portal vanishes. The ponies smiled that these guys were always be remembered.....always, for their great help. Author's Note Chapter 11 is done! Sorry if it is short, Chapter 12: Goodbye is now the thank you chapter. :D
Chapter 12: GoodbyeWell, this is the end for the 'Lich of the Scourge' story. I hope you enjoy it and thank you for reading it!
Chapter 2: The Chamber"Uhm...Excuse me Mr. Kel'Thuzad, but where is this aura coming from?" Kel'Thuzad turns his head and saw a pink pony, like Pinkie Pie, but with no fluffy hair and has wings. "I will not tell you until you tell your name." "My name is Princess Cadence, for your information." "Ah, I see. Your the ex-foalsitter the young one spoke of." "Yes, now give us that information, or my guards will hunt you when you escape." "Certainly. The aura is coming from that direction." he said, pointing at the throne room. He moved to the throne room, with the ponies following him. He stopped in front of the throne, with ponies wondering what will he do next. Then, he raises his hands, with purple glows emitted on them, and casting that most believe was a spell. Twilight would not imagine a being like him would do magic. Minutes later, the throne split in half, revealing a chamber. The ponies would have never thought of that before, not even Twilight Sparkle or Princess Cadence. Kel'Thuzad went inside the chamber, with a mob of curious mares following. "This chamber, if I may talk Princess, leads to the aura that I was sensing. It is powerful, almost like it was here and not touched for a thousand years." Kel'Thuzad said. "That powerful?" Twilight asked. "Yes, but I think more powerful that we could ever imagined." But before Twilight could reply to Kel'Thuzad, he stopped in front of something. The ponies watch at Kel'Thuzad approach the crystal wall. He realized that there was something behind it, and when he wipe some of the fog, a pony face appeared, with stripes in it's body. Wanting to meet this pony, Kel'Thuzad again uses a spell, with Twilight wondering. He said: "Let this power shatter the crystal, and release the body from within!" In a second, the crystal wall and comes forth a pony. He was unconcious and Kel'Thuzad tries to wonder why a pony, trapped in a crystal wall, was here. Author's Note Chapter 2 is here guys! Sorry if it's short, and I know some of you guys hate short chapters. But hey! Chapter 3 would be created, but since I would be busy of school duties, just leave a comment for suggestions and all. Any crazy or weird suggestions. Or, a suggestion of a story again. :D I would have time tomorrow, but not that much.
