Spike's six Darkness

by Sand Storm

One night at blood building

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

"Oh, someone making a mess. Don't worry I'll help." The royal purple one said as tentacles started to wrap themselves around his limbs. One tentacle moved towards the slowly dying griffin; the tentacle made it's way down his tore up throat. It moved a bit before pulling something beating out,

A heart.

Veins were still connected to the heart while it still sending blood to the body.

"Oh, how lovely! You giving us a lovely gift. Thanks darling." It said to him before devouring the heart. The griffin struggled for a bit before going limp.

The let go of the dead body tossing it to the side letting the blood flow out of him. Spike looked at it before his fin twitched hear footsteps coming his way. Spike looked around for and exit. The windows were out as he would have no idea where to go, leaving would just cause problems for him as the royal guards would be on high alert. The six as well looked around for an exit but there were broken windows, walls, and floors. Dash looked up the ceiling and saw a hole, with quick thinking; she launched herself and grabbed the ledge. Fluttershy saw what she was doing and followed suit. The two pulled Spike up to the next floor, Spike yelped in surprise as he was lifted to the next floor.

"What are you doing?" Spike asked them as he was softly place of the floor. Spike was about to speak more till he heard voices from below. Spike walked to the ledge and looked down. Spike saw four other griffins with guns in the talons.

"Where the hell is Steel Beak?" Asked one of them, Pinkie giggled at the name. They looked around for a bit till one of them walked into the blood. Looking down, the griffin jumped in surprise.

"What the Fuck?! Is this the dragon's?" The griffin asked before turning on his flashlight and found the dead body of the comrade. The rest started to get pissed as they also walked into the blood. Spike looked at the Sniper gun then back at the griffins.

"Don't you do it." Twilight warned.

"And do What? They plan on a global war. Why not?" Dash said with reason.

"We can just ran back to Celestia and tell her what is happening." Twilight said trying to stay out of conflict.

"And tell her what? That we were captured by assassins and they plan on making a war against ponies and zebras?" Applejack told Twilight. After that an argument started.

"Can we just vote on what to do?" Rarity said trying to calm the group.

"Okay say Ay if we should go to Celestia." Twilight said.

"Ay"

"Ay"

"Ay"

"And who want to stay and...kill them." Twilight with dread.

"Ay"

"Ay"

"Ay"

"Well then I guess Spike how to break the time break-!" Twilight was about to say till a voice spoke.

"Ah, Guess that settles that. Killing it is." Spike said aiming the gun at one of the furthest one.

"So are we gonna pretend that other just voice just now?" Dash said wondering.

The voice said to them as a portal opened beside them.

Spike turned to look at the opened portal wondering what was coming out. But what it was shocked them.

They appear as a hunched, metallic humanoid with many glowing blue stripes across their bodies. The head of the creature does not appear to have any eyes or mouth for that matter.

It looked at Spike before bowing down on one knee. Spike looked at this before back at the searching griffins, they were looked around the place. Somehow left to search deeper within the building, Two stayed behind to 'look after' the fallen friend but Spike knew better they were just waiting to they hear a scream and then run.

The creature looked towards the two before looking back Spike. Spike looked at it before nodding his head. The creature looked at him before disappearing before him. Spike felt the wind past right by him, guessing that was the monster walking by him. Spike heard a small 'thump' as it landed softly to the ground, lights began to move towards the area. Spike quietly walked over to the ledge and looked down.


"Probably just a rat." One of the two griffins said aloud. Then one of them started to shoot their gun, the other ducked to get shot.

"What the hell White Wing?! Were you trying to shot me?!!" The griffin asked his comrade.

"No, I saw something move behind you. It was faintly glowing blue." White Wing told him. The griffin turned to look behind him before turning back unamused.

"There's nothin-!" He said but only is greeted to nothing. He moved his flashlight around to found where his comrade has gone.

"White Wing? Where are you? You better not be trying to scare me?" He said looking around but still found nothing. He lifted his walky talky and spoke.

"Has any of you seen White Wing? He was just with me and then just disappeared." He said.

"Disappeared? Hey the bloody hell did you lose him, Red Talon?" Asked his boss.

"I don't know before he was gone, he said he saw something behind me and tried to shoot almost shooting me. Then I looked behind to see what he was talking about and saw nothing but the damn night sky. After that I was about to scold him but he wasn't there." Red told them.

"Well go fucking found him. Now." his boss ordered him. Red talon groaned to himself before walking into the darkness. Spike jumped down from his hiding spot, he looked towards the clearing and found nothing just dead silence. Spike looked at the dead body of Steel Beak, the corpse was slowly decaying. Bugs were already eating away at the body. Spike turned his head away from the thing.

"Poor away to go." Spike said looking away.

"I say it was to for giving." Dash spoke.

"Not is not it can't had been worse. Celestia could have chose his fate." Twilight explained. As she went on about what would Celestia do, there was a faint scream of fear.

"What the hell was that?" Asked a griffin from the walky talky. Spike picked it up from the ground, and brought it close to his ear fin.

"I found White Wing...But he seems to be slashed at and burned. And for some reasons, his skin is growing metal." Red Talon said as he looked at his dead comrade.

"Growing Metal? The fuck are you even bitching about?" Asked his leader. Spike listen in as the conversation goes on. As he listened, there was a faint sound of something moving.

"What the-!" Red Talon started to say before being jumped by something.

"The hell are you?!!?" He asked the thing that was in front of him. After a few seconds there was a screeching roar.

"Was that Red Talon?" Spike asked as gunshots echoed the place, small short bursts of light flash from a far. There was a scream then silences, the gunshots stopped. The silences returned with a slight dragging of bodies.

Spike listened to the dragging closer to him. Spike looked around hoping to found what was making that sound.

"It probably that thing that voice summoned." Rarity suggested.

"Maybe." Spike said was the dragging drew closer. Spike turned behind him to see the same monster reappear before him with two dead bodies of the griffins. The two were killed painfully.

Red talon had his left wing tore off, his face the claw marks, his body also had claw marks.

White wing's neck was cut but that looked recent, his body had weird daggers, blade-like cuts were on the body and the were deep.

But what was odd was the strange burns on the bodies. They seem to be burning the skin and hardening.

Spike looked at creature then at the bodies it held then back at it without warning Rainbow Dash and Pinkie lunged themselves to the chest of the dead corpses. The pulled out the hearts before swallowing them. Pinkie licked her lips, licking the blood off her teeth.

"Okay, how do we unsummon you?" Spike asked himself.

"Maybe you can say 'Dismissed'." Pinkie said with a thought.

"Dismissed." Spike command. A black with a hint red swirling portal appeared, the creature walked into it with the dead corpses still in it's claws. The portal stayed after the creature left, Spike looked down and saw the blood of the corpses leading to the portal.

"Wonder if we can summon something else." Dash said imaging what else they can summon.

"I would like to see a cat." Pinkie said smiling.

"Pinkie? I'm pretty sure that not what you might-Moew!" Twilight began to say till a cat's meow came from the portal.

Spike looked into the portal and was greeted to multiple eyes staring back at him. Spike backed up as something was coming out of it. It looked like a cat but also didn't. There was five of them.

They were cat-like, had six talons like tails, they didn't have fur but scales. They had blue spots on them.

The cats stared at him as if they were waiting for something. Spike bent down on one knee to look at them. The cats slowly made their way to him; each giving him a curious stare wonder what he was. As they neared, Spike placed his hand out for them to sniff at. One did as it got close as the others sniffed his arm and chest,

"Red Talon? Pick up the damn radio." The leader asked through the radio. Spike turned in the speaker.

"They're Died, buddy." Spike told the leader.

"Who is this?" The leader asked.

"The dragon you tried to kill." Spike said with some venom. The was a short pause before he started to laugh.

"Do you think I'm scared of some sun bitch's pet." He said. Spike's blood began to boil. The cats started to hiss as well, their hissing sounded like a mix between a tiger, a lion, a black panther, and a jaguar. Spike smiled as he nodded off to them. The cats sniffed the air before turning around and racing off.

"Well maybe not me but I have to wonder if any of you have an allergic to cats?" Spike asked them.

"No, Why?" Said one of the others griffins.

"Oh no reason." Spike said smiling devilishly.

"Then why-" The leader said before being cut off by a gun shoot.

"What the fuck are those?!!" One of them yelled, Spike smiling more.

"Oh, it seems you have meet my pets." Spike told them.

'I wonder whats going on over there?' Spike thought to himself.

Before he could think, his vision changed to that of the cats. He could what they were doing. Currently, Spike was watching one of them bite into the shoulder of the leader.

"Just shoot them!" The leader ordered. Spike watched as the Cats tear through the flesh on one.

"Get it off MEEEE!!!" He yelled as he pushed the cat clawing at him.

"Sharp wing go help Hard Feathers." Their leader ordered. Sharp wing rushed towards Hard Feathers but he was stopped by the strange cat. The cat hissed angrily at him. Sharp wing aimed his pistol gun at it before pressing the trigger. The cat jumped out of the way for pouncing on him. Sharp jumped out of the way before loose grip of his gun having it knocked out of his hands. The cat hissed at him before pouncing again. Sharp jumped to the side before being knocked down by one from behind.

"Get off!" Sharp yelled as the cat's claws dig into the griffin's flesh. The leader fired his gun at the cats trying to get some distances with them.

"I'm out of here." He said before taking flight. Sharp wing was able to get the cats off him before taking flight as well. As they flew out Sharp looked back towards Hard feathers whom was getting eaten by the cats, he was still moving trying to get them off on him. They ripped out piece of flesh from his torso while a figure walked towards them and petted their heads. The figure turned to look at him, multiple eyes stared at him but they all turned red for a split second. Sharp quickly flew out of the building following his leader out.

Spike watched as the two took off. Spike watched as the dots fading in the moonlight. Spike looked back at the cats and petted one of them. It meowed happily to him. Spike smiled before a portal opened. Spike smiled as the cats walked into it. The portal faded away as the last cat entered it. Spike look at the chewed up griffin before allowing Applejack to devour the heart. Spike made his way out of the building, after a few minutes of walking he made it to the entrance.

"Not the night I wanted but nice weather." Spike said trying to feel happy after the accident.

"Lucky we didn't got stuck in a pizzara." Pinkie said to him.

"Why a pizzara?" Spike asked her.

"Oh, because of this one rumor I heard about five foals dying and place into furry robot suits." She responded.

"That sounds silly and something a foal would have a nightmare about." Twilight told her blankly, not believing it.

"Or some kind of game." Dash said.

"Anyways, better head home. Mom tends to freak out whenever I visit and don't show up for dinner." Spike said before walking forward.

After taking one step, a blinding light shined on his. The six screeched in pain as the light burned their black skin. Spike, on the other hand, fell to his knees while placing a claw in front of his face to see where the light was coming from. There was a tall figure standing in front of him.

"Who..the..hell...are you?" Spike asked weakly. The next to happen not only shocked but freaked him and the six out as well.

"Thru has been captured thee by the princess of the night." The voice told them.

Well/Oh

"And thee is under arrest." Luna told him.

FUCK!


Author's Note

Sorry for taking so long, I wanted to make two chapters at the same time for be late on this.

The first creature is called a Stalker from Dark Sector(spiritual predecessor of Warframe).

If you never heard of Dark Sector here's a short insight of the game>

Dark Sector is where the main character is a man named Hayden Tenno from the CIA as a 'clean up' men. He is sent to 'clean up' after a operational messes left all over the globe. After a killing and blowing up doors, he is attacked by a metallic being with a blade for a right arm. He is stabbed in the right and blow away from C4, he survives and tries to get help as he is infected with the Technocyte Virus which a nano-virus. Which is extremely painful, so much so that most of those infected eventually lose their sanity but Hayden was given a booster to shield the pain. Those infected would have metallic skin and glowing dots over the infected area.

He soon gains a organic weapon (Glaive) from his infected right arm. Later in the game, he gains more powers and becomes more infected.

The second creature is a Feral Kavat (I think that what their called) from Warframe(spiritual successor/an original sequel).

Warframe is a free to play (Last time I checked) game made by the same people who made Dark Sector, Digital Extremes.
The game has a settled storyline after thousands of years since the events of Dark Sector

Within Warframe a war is going after a war called 'The Great Plague' which the says happened over hundreds of years ago.
The infected although the affliction may have organic origins, the virus itself may be bound with nano-machines that invade living cells or machinery in equal measure.

The Mire references something called the "Great Plague" in its description. The Great Plague may be a reference to the Infestation itself or a period after its creation. The Mire's resemblance to the Infested suggests a connection between the Great Plague and the Infested themselves.

Dark Sector Reference within Warframe.
