Order of the Dark Mystic Ponies

Chapter 3: Consequence...

Sam and Ashley entered Guildenstern's Lab, looking around for someone. They spotted the lifeless body of Guildenstern on the floor. They both approached to him, looking at the pale and crack-like face of his.

Ashley placed her hoof on Guildenstern's head, then his neck and and his chest.

Sam stuck his tongue out, giving a weird face, "Yuck! Looking at the mad doctor's face freak me out!"

Ashley groaned angrily, turned and glared at Sam, "Show some respect to him, Sam! He's my teacher and mentor. Not only that, he is one of the most important figures among Dark Mystic Ponies. He is the best inventor and scientist we ever had."

Annoyed, Sam rolled his eyes up, "Oh 'great'."

Ashley continued checking on Guildenstern's body, finding some pulse within him. Feeling big round on his left chest, Ashley smirked. She gently waved her hoof on his chest for third time. She hit on his chest.

Feeling the hit, Guildenstern opened his eyes, and gasped in shock, like waking up from the dead of Underworld.

Three Days had passed...

At Rainbow Friendship Kingdom, concerns, fears and worries emerged within on Ben, Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Spike, Nyx and Phobos, having discussion of how they handled with their enemies since Boris possessed the means of advantage.

"I don't like it," said Rainbow Dash, sliding herself down on her throne chair, "That is so way not cool!"

"Indeed," Rarity agreed, "We are indeed dealing with overwhelming numbers of our enemies. Boris has the advantage in using Dark Mystic Ponies against us. It's impossible for us to defeat him.

"There were some we can, but others -" Rarity blew her mane up, showing her look of grumble old man, "- not."

Applejack nodded her head, "What should we do?"

Ben shrugged, closing his eyes, lying down on his chair. Rubbing below of his muzzle, running some time to think. He opened his eyes, sitting up, looking straight at his friends, "Maybe we shouldn't worry. After all, Boris wouldn't dare to come here, with his 'large' army."

Hearing of what Ben had said, Applejack, Rarity and Rainbow Dash looked at each other, having some mind thinking and wondering. They smiled, nodding their heads.

TZANG!

Hearing the sound of blades unsheathing, Ben and his friends felt their bodies frozed up and eyes shrunk into smaller sizes as the pinball. Nyx, Phobos and Spike felt their hearts pounding hard and quick as the cheetah's speeding. Their bodies shaken like they were in cold weather.

Ben and his friends turned to the entrance of Rainbow Friendship Kingdom. They gasped in shock, seeing enemies of theirs, arming their swords, pikes and spears at them. They spotted Boris and his gang coming in. Their minds and hearts filled with anger, hatred and rage, glaring at the very enemies they despised.

Ben and his friends came down from their seats, turning to their enemies.

"If you are here for surrender," said Ben, in the tone of anger, "Then, do so. Or suffer the consequence, pal!"

Boris huffed, irritating by Ben's threat, mimicking his 'threat': 'Or suffer the consequence, pal'. He stuck his tongue out at Ben, "As if! Today, Ben..." He smirked, proud and superior, looking at him, "You'll be defeated, and Twilight will be mine..."

Angered by Boris's threat, Ben groaned angrily, magically teleport the Master Sword in front of him. Swooping his hoof on it, he aimed at Boris.

Boris chuckled lightly yet cruelly, "I like to see you try, Ben." He turned to his left, turning to one of Dark Mystic Ponies' Generals: Burnblast, "Take care of them. Send the rest if you need."

Burnblast nodded his head, understanding the order of his 'master'. Annoying...

Boris and his gang turned to their backs and exited out of Rainbow Friendship Kingdom. Burnblast whistled out loud.

PUFF!

The smoking of blackness emerged from the ground, forming the familiar enemies of Ben and his friends: Wild Maniac, Deathreaper, Karai, DJ Red, Clumsy Rat, Shades, Black Tiger and Tech. They wielded and held their weapons, aiming at Ben and his friends.

Applejack bit from her back, taking out her Diamond Lasso. Rarity, magically, levitated the Eternal Styles. Rainbow Dash took Magical Nunchucks out from her back, spinning hers for a moment. Nyx, magically, transformed into a mare. Spike held his fists up. Ben held his sword up.

Burnblast growled in anger, taking a gun out, blasted at Ben. Ben swung his sword up, pushing the bullet up to the rooftop. Ben looked down. Burnblast charged in, pushing Ben to the kitchen's wall hard. Burnblast punched on Ben's face for third time. Ben, using his head, hit Burnblast's head hard. Ben kicked Burnblast's chest back. Ben jumped up, slammed his sword down on Burnblast. He dodged to his left, unsheathing his sword, charging at Ben, who turned to Burnblast's direction. Both fought and swung their swords hard and quick.

Wild Maniac yelled in anger, raising his hooves up, galloping and kicking on something. He charged at Applejack, pushing and knocking her, breaking the walls to pieces, rubble and debris. Applejack, struggling, jumped up and slammed him down to the ground. Using her elbow, she nudged on him for fourth time. He screamed in pain, using his elbow, nudged Applejack's face hard, giving her a big dizzy. Wild Maniac turned his head back briefly, grabbing her and throwing her to the wall hard. He charged in, punching on Applejack for fifth times, like punching on the dummies. Her head banged his head, and then she punched on his chest for five times. Wild Maniac grabbed and held her hooves tight, pushing her back. Applejack pushed back.

Rarity blasted her Eternal Style at Karai, who dodged the attacks for few times while charging at her. Karai struck her sword at Rarity, who blocked the attacks with her giant diamonds for few times. Rarity, magically, pushed her Eternal Style at Karai. Karai jumped up and over them. She slammed her sword at Rarity. Rarity moved back. A trim of small mane dropped down. Rarity gasped before growled in anger, before charging at Karai to the ground. Rarity and Karai held their hooves tight and pushing hard.

Rainbow Dash swung and slammed her Magical Nunchucks on Reaperdeath's head, but he punched her head hard. She landed her back on the ground. He jumped up, slamming his sword on her head, but she dodged to her right. She punched on Reaperdeath's right, before kicking him out. She grabbed his tail, swinging him around of her, before throwing to the wall. Rainbow Dash swung her Magical Nunchucks at Reaperdeath, who dodged and escaped from her swinging attacks. He jumped up and struck on her to the ground. They both glared at each other, and pushing their weapons at each other.

Nyx, Spike and Phobos blasted her magical Unicorn Bursts and Dragon Flames at Dark Warriors Trio, Black Tiger and Tech.

Black Tiger jumped up and kicked on Nyx's head, but she dodged to her right, before kicking him back. He shook his head hard, before growling in anger. He roared in anger, charging and punching on Nyx, whom quickly jumped up, dodged down, moved to left and right from the direction of the attacks. Nyx kicked on Black Tiger's head, but he grabbed her back leg. He spun her backwards, before kicking her barrel hard to the ground. He punched and kicked at her, but she blocked and stroke back.

DJ Red, Clumsy Rat, Shades and Tech blasted their guns at Spike and Phobos, who screamed for their lives, running away from their enemies and hiding among the rocks and throne chairs. They blasted their Dragon Flames at Dark Warrior Trio and Tech for few times.

Dark Mystic Soldiers and Techbots fought Ben and their friends, and assisting their Generals. Some attacked Ben and his friends with their swords, pikes, spears, axe and more. Others blasted at them.

The battle fought fierce and dangerous!

Ben swung his sword on top of Burnblast, who dodged down, took a gun out from his coat, blasting him to the wall hard. Wild Maniac grabbed Applejack's mane and thrown to the same location as Ben had. Reaperdeath jumped over and kicked Rainbow's head hard to the wall. Karai and Black Tiger jumped and kicked Rarity and Nyx to the wall. Dark Warriors Trio and Tech blasted their guns at both Spike and Phobos to the wall hard.

Dark Mystic Ponies armed their weapons of blades and guns at Ben and his friends, preparing to finish them off.

PUFF!

White smoke emerged from the ground. Princess Celestia, Tao, Lightning Wisdom and Seeker appeared. Dark Mystic Ponies turned to them, looking at their angry and glaring eyes. They armed their weapons at Princess Celestia, Tao, Lightning Wisdom and Seeker.

Dark Mystic Ponies charged and attacked Princess Celestia, Tao and Lightning Wisdom, while Seeker ran off.

Princess Celestia blasted her Unicorn Bursts against Dark Mystic Ponies, while punching and kicking them out. Tao and Lightning Wisdom punched and kicked some of Dark Mystic Ponies back. Three of them dodged the attacks and blasts from Dark Mystic Ponies.

Wild Maniac charged in, swinging his pike against Tao, while dodging back for few times. From his back, Deathreaper jumped and slammed his sword on Tao's head. Tao turned and grabbed the sword, before punching on Deathreaper's chest hard for few times before he kicked him off. Wild Maniac thrust his pike at Tao's back. Tao jumped over Wild Maniac's back and kicked on Wild Maniac's head for ten times. Tao punched Wild Maniac's head to the ground hard.

Princess Celestia blasted her Unicorn Bursts at Dark Warriors Trio to the wall hard. Tech gulped in concern, before quickly ran off. Princess Celestia turned to Karai, who held her sword. Karai charged in, swinging her sword against Princess Celestia for few around. Princess Celestia fought back. They both dodged the attacks for few moments. Karai thrust her sword on Princess Celestia's barrel. Princess Celestia grabbed the sword's blade hard and tight. Princess Celestia blasted her Unicorn Burst at Karai back.

Lightning Wisdom and Burnblast's fought against each other for few times and dodged the attacks for few times. Lightning Wisdom and Burnblast gave the hard and powerful stroke through their crossing blades before pushing back. Both of them glared at each other, waiting and preparing. They charged in and glaring at each other. Passin by, they gave the hard and quick stroke.

Lightning Wisdom on the right while Burnblast on the left, both remained still and calm like nothing had happened to them. Burnblast landed his front to the ground.

Watching the battlefield, Ben and his friends were in shock and surprise. They quickly headed towards their friends.

Tao dropped his knees to the ground, panted in tired and exhausted. Princess Celestia and Lightning Wisdom helped Tao up gently and kindly.

"Tao," said Ben, "Are you alright?"

Tao nodded his head lightly, "Yes... I am fine. But..." He groaned painfully, feeling his chest pained and hurt. His friends looked concern and worry, looking at him. "The enemies are waiting outside. We must be prepared."

Ben and his friends nodded their heads, knowing Tao was right about the situation and battles.

Ben and his friends came out from Rainbow Friendship Kingdom, slowly and carefully yet painfully.

CLAP!

They were in shock and surprise, knowing where the sounds came from. They looked in front, seeing many ponies trembling in fear, like something had spooked them. They saw the burning and ruined homes of their hometown. Ben and his friends looked up and saw Boris and his gang were sitting on their chairs, enjoying their time of eating and drinking. They shown to be in amusement, looking at Ben and his friends.

Boris smirked, "Gotta admit it. You guys, sure got lots of guts in beating Dark Mystic Ponies."

Ben smirked, "What do you expect? You're facing at Alicorn of the Sun, Mystic Councilpony of Light and Mystic Councilpony of Thunder. They've beaten many kinds like you."

Boris waved off in front of him, clearing his throat, "Anyhow. We've got some things to deal with, since we've trashed your place around while you were busy playing with Dark Mystics." He stood up, turned his back away from Ben and his friends. He said, "So long, suckers!"

Ben groaned angrily, preparing to attack. The black smokes emerged, giving Ben a shock and scared. Ben's friends gasped and yelped in shock, watching the event.

The smoke disappeared, revealing Burnblast, Wild Maniac, Reaperdeath, Karai, Black Tiger, DJ Red, Clumsy Rat, Shades, Tech and Dark Mystic Ponies, wearing the scars, bruises and bleeds, glaring at their enemies while holding their weapons.

'So not good!' Ben thought in concern.

Boris laughed evilly, as he and his gang leave the town, trembling and shivering in fear and scared. Dark Mystic Ponies turned and followed their 'masters'. Ponyville was in ruin and left in fear and scared. Ponies shown their concern and fear of what they were facing at.

Ben and his friends looked at each other, wearing the mask of concerns and worries, wondering of how and what they handled the situation.

"I can't believe it," said Rarity, putting her left hoof on her head, "We actually had lost?!" She screamed in fear, "WORST - POSSIBLE - THING - HAPPENED!"

"Tell me about it," agreed Rainbow Dash. She flapped her wings in midair, "Fighting with Boris is one thing, but with those creeps, no way we can win the fight them, saving lives or getting Mystic Weapon!"

Applejack nodded her head in concern, "There's gotta be another way to solve the problem, before it becomes more."

Princess Celestia, Tao and Lightning Wisdom looked at each other before they breathed in concern and fear.

Ben sighed, "If we put Dark Curse and Shadow Dragon back, then everything will be fine."

Everyone gasped in fear of what Ben had said.

Spike grabbed and pulled Ben's tail, making him yelped in pain. Ben turned to Spike. Spike exclaimed, "Ben, are you nuts?! Shadow Dragon is our enemies! He maybe your half-brother-in-law, but he's the bad guy!"

"If you set him free," said Nyx, "Who knows what kind of plans Shadow Dragon had installed?"

Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Princess Celestia, Tao and Lightning Wisdom nodded their heads, agreeing with Nyx's concern. Ben breathed in concern, knew it was his only hope to stop Boris.

"But it doesn't have to..." said the voice, taking Ben and his friends' attention. They turned to their back, hearing the voice came from behind. Crimson Skull came out, showing the mask of unpleasant and unhappy face, "But I assure you that only you to decide, Ben."

Ben and his friends armed themselves in preparing to fight. Crimson Skull remained standing, and made no move...

"I am not here to fight," said Crimson Skull, "But to talk."

Ben looked concern and worry of what Crimson Skull had said.

Crimson Skull narrowed his eyes at Ben, "An alliance. To put an end of Boris's stupidity and tyranny of controlling my ponies."

At the Dark Mystic Palace, Crimson Skull teleported at Guildenstern's Lab. Bringing with him were Ben, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Spike, Nyx and Phobos. Nyx had the Reversing Mirror on her saddlebag, showing her concern and scared looks.

"I still don't like it," said Nyx.

"Yeah, me too," agreed Spike.

Ben breathed in concern, "If I made mistake, that's where you girls come in and help me."

Applejack looked concern and scared, putting her cowgirl's hat gently, "Sounds risky. But worth it."

"Better be," Rainbow holding her Magical Nunchucks Gun mode, aiming around her surroundings.

"Working and allying with Dark Mystic Ponies to stop Boris," said Rarity, "is mostly unexpected."

Crimson Skull approached to the body of Guildenstern, making Ben and his friends suspected of how and what had happened to Guildenstern. Crimson Skull kicked Guildenstern's body hard. Ben and his friends gasped in shock.

"Get up, Guildenstern! Now!" Crimson Skull shouted angrily at the lifeless yet dead Guildenstern. Crimson Skull turned to the patient bed, glaring at it, "You two as well."

Ben and his friends shown concern of it. They knew they had made temporary alliance with Dark Mystic Ponies to get rid of Boris from controlling them, yet Crimson Skull had to be disrespectful to the lifeless Dark Mystic Pony.

Guildenstern's hooves twitched. His hooves raised up like a snake raising from the ground, preparing to strike. Guildenstern's eyes opened rudely, revealing the crimson snake irises like he just had the nightmares. He chuckled evilly and insanely, slowly ascending to the air. He stretched himself out, warming up.

Sam and Ashley came out from the bed's sides, and in front of them.

Nyx gasped, "Sam! Ashley!" She galloped. She jumped and hugged Sam and Ashley down. They giggled and chuckled lightly, "You're both okay!"

Sam smiled, "You betcha, partner."

"Thanks for thinking about us, Nyx," Ashley commented.

Nyx smiled, helping both Sam and Ashley up from the ground. Ben, Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Spike and Phobos approached and smiled at Sam and Ashley.

Crimson Skull approached to Guildenstern, "Report."

Guildenstern bowed, "Boris and his gang had yet return to our base." Crimson Skull smirked in impress and glad. Guildenstern continued, "As for Demon Generals, they refused to take order from the pretender, but waiting for the signal of our defeat and victory. They will secure the area and destroyed Boris's worthless and pathetic machines and army. And the Dark Elements had been delivered to all ponies and even us as Dark Curse instructed."

Crimson Skull smirked, "Excellent."

Heard of what Crimson Skull had said, Ben narrowed his angry eyes at his enemies. Ben approached to Crimson Skull, demanded in concern, "What was that about?"

Crimson Skull turned to Ben and said sternly, "That is none of your concerns. You play your part while we play ours."

Ben narrowed his eyes, looking at Crimson Skull's eyes, suspecting something he's hiding from Ben and his friends. Should he trust Dark Mystic Ponies? They were known to be tricky and cunning, and especially Crimson Skull and Guildenstern.

Ben simply nodded his head.

Ben and his friends followed Crimson Skull, Guildenstern, Sam and Ashley to the Dark Mystic Throne Chamber. They saw the giant spheres of Dark Curse, Shadow Dragon, WarKnight Destroyer and Dragoking, trapped and stuck within. They wore calm and relax faces. They both remained in silent like taking a nap from sitting up. Twilight Moon came out from behind of Shadow Dragon's prison, looking at Ben, with her narrowing eyes.

Twilight Moon knocked gently on the sphere, waking Shadow Dragon and his allies up. Twilight heading towards Crimson Skull and Guildenstern.

Shadow Dragon glanced at Ben, smiled gently, like he was expecting someone, "I didn't realize it's visiting hours."

"I..." Ben, hesitantly, said in both concern and fear, unsure of what he's doing, "I didn't come here for the visit."

Dark Curse narrowed his eyes at Ben, "So, why have you come here?"

Ben took the Reversing Mirror out from Nyx's bag, aiming at four spheres, answered: "To Rescue You! Reversing Mirror!"

Ben's Reversing Mirror glowed in bright white light. Unleashing the electrical surging energy, charging at Prisoner of Spheres of Dark Curse, Shadow Dragon, WarKnight Destroyer and Dragoking.

Four spheres glowed in crimson aura. - CRACK! - The glass cracked, slowly breaking across the glasses of Prisoner of Spheres.

BOOM!

The Prisoner of Spheres broke into pieces, engulfing the white and black smoke out from within. Ben and his friends looked and glanced at Dark Curse, Shadow Dragon, WarKnight Destroyer and Dragoking, stepping and coming out from within, smiling and smirking at their enemies.

Shadow Dragon turned to Dark Curse, who nodded his head. Shadow Dragon turned to Ben, approaching to his former friend.

"And now there's something I need to do." said Shadow Dragon.

Spike smiled gently, knowing the answer well, "Thank us?"

Shadow Dragon narrowed his eyes at Ben and his friends, "Destroy you."

Ben and his friends gasped in shock and concern.

They looked around. The Shadow emerged from the walls, slowly forming the solid bodies of Dark Mystic Ponies, aiming their weapons at Ben and his friends. Crimson Skull held his gun at them. Twilight Moon gathered her dark navy energy surging on her horn. Guildenstern held his staff at his enemy. Dark Curse chuckled evilly.

Sam and Ashley gasped in shock and concern. Ben and his friends were trapped!
