Chapter 11: "Miracle's can happen"
Spirit sits Indian-style atop of his pile of gold looking down at Iron Beak who has his two guards following him. One is a cheetah mixed with a raven, while the other seems to be a snow tiger mixed with a seagull. The two guards stand behind Iron Beak, but still stay on his sides.
They were strange brown armor that Spirit hasn't seen before, but decides to not ask, as it would most likely cause Iron Beak to become annoyed in him changing the topic, unfortunately for Spirit, right now Iron beak is pissed.
"How could you let this happen to your allies!?" He roars. Spirit raises a brow. Spirit could swear that smoke was rising from his nostrils.
"Let...what happen? You look perfectly healthy in my absence." He states. Beak growls, and his claws curl up into fists, Spirit notices a strange blade at all of their sides, something he has not seen before.
"Those damned Changeling's attacked us!! I had to ask for the Minotaur's help, but even they were under attack by the Changeling's. When I checked the Bad Lands, Chrysalis was missing, but her hive was decimated!" Beak roars out.
"Do you think me of a fool?" Spirit asks, he quirk's a brow towards the Griffin king.
"What?" Beak says, confused, and recoils slightly.
"Did you think I wouldn't have my Drake's watching over you, and have them step in if needed?" Spirit asks.
"W...Why you..." Iron starts, but Spirit raises a hand.
"The Minotaur's are fine, and your Griffins are safe." Spirit explains. "As for Chrysalis, she is here, in my kingdom making a new hive with Mountain, a dear Dragon friend of mine. They are to be weeded here in a few months." Spirit explains. "So to answer your question, Iron Beak, yes. This is how I treat my allies, by making sure they are safe when I am...out of it." He states.
"Then where were you!?" Beak roars.
"I had suffered from a small problem that soon revealed itself as Ghost Dragon's, they appeared, attacked my home and forced me into the form you see now. Only 1 had escaped with very little of my power, but if it were to keep it for too long, it would become destroyed and burn before passing on into the next life." Spirit informs. Iron nods his head.
"I see, and my daughter?" He asks.
"She has some of my power and a few of the Ghost Dragon souls in her body, making her stronger and granting powers over certain elements that loves." Spirit explains.
"I see. Where are the others, hm?" He asks.
"They are out and about in Equestria with Celestia and Luna. They are most likely enjoying a nice stroll through the park, or possibly sight-seeing the major monuments that I had created for that country." Spirit sighs out with a bored tone. Iron nods his head before turning around and waking before stopping and looking back at Spirit.
"I would hope you sleep with an eye open, yes?" He asks. Spirit looks back at Iron.
"I sleep when I wish. How I wish. Why do you ask this?" He asks. Iron sighs, almost as if bored, and gives him a smirk.
"I was informed that one of the Changeling's that attacked Griphyxia, that they were trying to draw you out to take your 'powers' and revive their masters, evidently, they succeeded." Beak tells him. Spirit's eyes narrow dangerously as the doors open and the others walk in, but stay quiet.
"You say this as if you wanted them to gain my powers." Spirit hisses out. Iron Beak simply scoffs.
"Why I would never want that to happen, but if they were to, oh, I don't know send out Ghost Dragon's to take some and bring it back to one of their masters, one would assume they had succeeded." Beak states. Spirit's eyes widen.
"Did you inform them of my absence?!" He roars out, making Beak chuckle.
"Did I?" He asks. Spirit hisses in anger as his wings twitch. "If I were, and if they gave me a special weapon to pierce your hide, then it would mean that they would be unstoppable. Wouldn't it?" He asks as his guards flicker before reappearing before Spirit, blades in claw and pin Spirit down onto his gold pile with their strange black blades, making Spirit roar in pain as his blood drips down the gold pile, some steam comes from his blood, as if it is acid or lava.
Iron then flickers before him, holding a strange double-sided black sword glowing blue with his fore-hooves. He raises it into the air before plunging it down, only for the blade to bounce off of his chest, Iron Beak could have sworn that he saw red scales flash from underneath Spirit's shirt, and fly from the hilt and imbed itself into the floor twenty feet behind Iron. His eyes widen as Spirit's tail whips and sends the three Griffin's flying, however, their forms flicker into those strange Changeling's as they land.
The two Changeling Grunt's groan as their fore-hooves break and their horns shatter. The Leader Changeling groans as one of his wings is missing, and his eye has a cut on it. He then notices the blade piece of his blade, he smirks and teleports to it and then teleports back, he then looks to his Grunt's.
"Damn it! The king said that it would pierce him!!" The leader hisses out to the other two. The two Grunt's grown in pain as they try to stand as they see Spirit trying to get up. They ultimately can't, and the two bow their heads in shame and accept their unforgiving fate.
Spirit's body is covered in strange fire ruby red energy flames as he pushes himself up from the gold pile, the strange swords melt and drip down his arms and drip down the pile of gold, solidifying into a strange black steel waterfall. He lets loose a roar as his hellish fire spews out and consumes the two grunts as the leader flickers behind Spirit holding the blade of his sword, it still glows blue.
Gilda goes to help Spirit, but is stopped by Daring, who points to Spirit who's form flickers and the leader Changeling is sent flying into a column and Spirit appears behind the spot he was in with a leg outstretched and his foot is covered in steam, as if he kicked far too fast then physics could allow, his pant-leg is burned slightly, as are his shoes.
The leader Changeling coughs up some orange blood, before he growls and looks up at Spirit. The Leader's eyes show a mix of awe and primal fear of a MUCH larger predator hunting him down.
"So the tails are true, you are truly a monster. And here I thought that the Princesses were more monster like, much like that pathetic Lunar one, and that Solar one, what a joke. You are more of a leader than those two sows." He spats. Spirit flickers before the Changeling and knocks him aside with his tail.
"NEVER talk about them, EVER." Spirit hisses out through clenched fangs. He then holds a hand out, a pillar of hell fire forms around his hand, but as it starts to die, he is holding a strange sword that looks like a curve double-sided-sword with obsidian markings of fire on the front edge, while markings of diamond like scales on the other side.
The hilt is long, at least as long as his forearm which is three times the size of a normal human's, and the butt of if it is like a never ending flame constantly burning. The guard resembles a dragon's head biting at the base of the blade, the fangs turning into the blade itself as the middle of the blade itself is the tongue filling in the large gap, but even that is sharp. The eyes resemble his own, however, in the center of slit pupil is a Fire Ruby that seem to be glowing much like a raging flame.
He walks slowly towards the Leader Changeling, his blade seems to hiss in anticipation. He swings in an arch, making the air scream. The Leader Changeling becomes invisible and scampers behind a column, his blade piece is glowing more and more, but the glow starts to become dark purple, and he throws it into the top of the column, making sure it is stuck there, he smirks, his mission is done, now all he needs to do it get past a dangerous beast. Spirit smirks as the ground itself spews massive columns of fire, making the Leader Changeling scream in agony as he becomes visual, Spirit notes that he is right next to him and grins, and starts to burn ever so slowly.
"This blade, is called, "Desolation". It has even been called by my real name, but none of you will EVER find out about that, Grunt." He hisses out, eyes narrowed as the Changeling screams and pleas for the others who watch in horror, even Iron Beak who arrives with a platoon of guards behind him.
"I think our little game is over, so tell me, Changeling. Who is you master?" Spirit asks. He makes a hissing sound as he circles the trapped Changeling. He looks back up at Spirit, he see's a flicker in Spirit's form, getting a glimpse of a massive Dragon making mountains like children, a fire that has scorned the world once before, making his eyes widen when he see's the Dragon turn back into Spirit.
"S...Sombra!!" The Changeling screams out. "PLEASE! LET ME GO!!" He pleads. Spirit shakes his head, a sad look on his face as he turns up the heat, making the Changeling's vocal cords to burn up. Spirit then places a hand atop of it's head. It looks up at Spirit, terror in it's eyes as tears start to form only to become mist, Spirit sighs.
"Farewell, Changeling. I am sorry to say that your time has come. Find peace, and enjoy your heaven." Spirit sighs out with a small smile. The Changeling smiles back for some strange reason, closing his eyes before his horn ignites and the blade piece lands before Spirit. The Leader urges him to take it as the Changeling start turning into ash from his legs up. Spirit then nods his head and picks the blade piece up with his tail, the Changeling's vocal cords somehow become repaired.
"I was meant to stab you with that, and bring back energy, when I did, I took some. Break it to regain what you lost." He says with a scratchy voice before turning into ash. Spirit nods his head and sighs, he breaks the blade piece over his knee, his energy flows out and goes back into himself.
Spirit then turns and his sword turns back into flame, before flowing into hi chest as well. He looks up from the ground and see's everyone standing there, some have horrified looks on their faces, others hold a strange amount of respect, however, Shy is bawling.
"What?" He asks.
"Why did you have to be so cruel?" Shy cries out, tears flowing down her cheeks. Spirit snorts and flickers, Shy is then picked up to his eyes level by his tail, he growls, his eyes flash golden dangerously, remembering Sombra and how that bastard used his fallen friends as meat-shields.
"Because he was planning on taking my power to revive Sombra, if that bastard isn't revived already, THAT is why." Spirit hisses out, before putting her down gently and flickering to atop of his pile of gold. "You should all be preparing for a large battle between light and shadow! Because if you do not, Equestria, Griphyxia, everyone, will die!" He roars out. Pinkie's mane and tail deflate, Shy cries louder as Dash holds her. Twilight sighs.
"We need to plan, but for now, we NEED to relax, something to take our minds off of this depressing news and situation. Perhaps our dear Pinkie Pie can find something for us to do?" Celestia asks the pink mare. Pinkie's mane and tail puff back up.
"Hey!" She screams out, making everyone look at her. "We should do karaoke to cheer everyone up!!" She screams out. Twilight nods.
"That is a good idea, why don't we let Spirit go first, hm?" She asks. Pinkie nods and gives Spirit a microphone from nowhere and Spirit acts as if it is normal before tapping on the mic before speaking into it.
"I know not many know of this song, but it is a song that works for me the best." He says. Strange music starts to play from nowhere confusing everyone, even Pinkie for once, as a strange beat starts up.

"When the days are cold
And the cards all fold
And the saints we see
Are all made of gold"
"When your dreams all fail
And the ones we hail
Are the worst of all
And the blood's run stale"
"I want to hide the truth
I want to shelter you
But with the beast inside
There's nowhere we can hide"
"No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come"
"When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It's where my demon's hide
It's where my demon's hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside
It's where my demon's hide
It's where my demon's hide"
"When the curtain's call
It's the last of all
When the lights fade out
All the sinners crawl"
"So they dug your grave
And the masquerade
Will come calling out
At the mess you made"
"Don't want to let you down
But I am hell bound
Though this is all for you
Don't want to hide the truth"
"No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come"
"When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It's where my demon's hide
It's where my demon's hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside
It's where my demon's hide
It's where my demon's hide"
"They say it's what you make
I say it's up to fate
It's woven in my soul
I need to let you go"
"Your eyes, they shine so bright
I want to save their light
I can't escape this now
Unless you show me how"
"When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It's where my demon's hide
It's where my demon's hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside
It's where my demon's hide
It's where my demon's hide"
Spirit stops singing and opens his eyes which he had closed at the beginning, only to see everyone gaping up at him, the mares and other females of the Changeling's, Griffin's, Drake's and ponies hold strange tears in their eyes. He tilts his head to the left.
"What's wrong with all of you?" He asks.
"Spirit." Luna starts. "That song is STILL beautiful, even to this very day. How can you remember it still?" She asks, wiping away her tears. Spirit sighs sadly. Twilight and the others don't really understand, but they agree that it was indeed beautiful, they'll be sure to get him to sing more often, as he looks more relaxed than before.
"It was Light's and my song for our wedding day and when we had just started to go out during our High school years." Spirit tells them all. Celestia gains a sad smile.
"I remember going through that school, you might not of known it at the time, but I was actually one of the people in your group of friends. I had the pink hair." Celestia states, wiping a tear away with a hand. Spirit stares at her.
"Sabrina?" He asks. She nods her head softly.
"Yes, I was her. I was young and since I saw how you were born a Dragon-Son, I decided to join, but when I noticed Light, I could see and feel the connection you had with her. Even when many others had thought of me as weird you and Light accepted me as your friend, which made me gain a long lasting love for you both that still holds up to this very day." Celestia explains. Spirit flickers before her.
"Well, now you have me. I am sure if Light were here, she would be saying the same thing as I am right now." Spirit tells her as he brushes a hand gently across her cheek. The two freeze as two soft and smooth human arms wrap around their shoulders gently, bringing the two close to a woman is glowing snow white hair with pail fare skin. She wears a light watery blue shirt and dark blue jeans. She is barefoot as a finned tail moves about, her forearm have strange sail-like-fins on them.
He back has large fin-like-sail-wings, between then is a strange dorsal fin, while her eyes resemble Spirit's, but are bright silver with white crowned slits. Her lips are rosy-red as her nails are painted light sea blue, her head has two small horns stilling up, out and curve back. Her ears at the edges are like fins, as her bust is larger than Celestia's is.
She smiles at both of them as she keeps them close to her form.
"Indeed I would." She says. Spirit's eyes go wide as tears form in them. He places a hand onto her cheek gently, and she leans into his hand, enjoying the touch she had missed for so long.
"Light...?" Spirit asks hopefully, that this wasn't another dream or a Changeling trying to take his power or cheer him up. His heart skips a beat when she nods and leans in. She kisses him gently, as the two close their eyes, Spirit savors her soft lips, that he had not been able to touch with for so long.
When they separate, she smiles lovingly up at him.
"Yes my dear Spirit, I am back." She says softly.
"My Light, you have returned."
