Luna's Creation
Bright Darkness - Chapter 2
Previous ChapterNext ChapterTwilight glanced over her shoulder to realize Rainbow had fallen over. "Are you ok?" Twilight said while helping her up.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Don't worry about me so much. If I pass out, just leave me be. You would have a better chance of living anyway."
Twilight frowned. "Don't you dare say that Rainbow. I will always be there for you, no matter what. You got that?"
"I was just saying. If that ever happens, I want you to know I wouldn't blame you." Rainbow started walking closer to Twilight. "I'm kinda useless. I mean, my wings are broke, my brain is damaged, nothing else I can really do for you."
"Do you hear yourself?! I think that blow did more than just brain damage, it changed you as a whole! What is wrong with you? Of course your important, and you know that!" Twilight began to hyperventilate. She couldn't believe Rainbow was talking like that. Thinking that she's useless and wouldn't care if she would die!
Rainbow began to look more serious. "Twilight, I'm not kidding. You know this is true. I may be awesome, but I'll be the first to admit, I'm not that awesome anymore. I'm just a hassle more than anything. Please Twilight, if I ever pass out or something, just leave me."
Twilight ignored her and kept walking. Ponyville was bombarded with Luna's soldiers and flushed out everypony. That's when Twilight found Rainbow and escaped. It was clear, but they would still have to stay in a well hidden building, maybe with supplies and hopefully a working water well or some canned food. Twilight stopped. "Get down!" Twilight whispered.
"What, what it is it?" Rainbow felt as her heart exploded twice.
"Shhh!"
A gray looking figure was moving towards Twilight and Rainbow. It seemed to notice the hoof prints they left behind on the trail they were on. Twilight's stomach started to itch from the razor sharp blades of grass. She could barely see out the leaves of the bush they were behind. The gray figure stopped, looked around, and kept coming forward.
"What in the name of Celestia are we going to do?" Rainbow whispered as pain from lying down was seeping into her hip.
The figure was about another 80 feet away from them.
"Fuck!" Twilight's face instantly went pale. She had never said such a word. Twilight frantically looked around and found a heavy looking rock. She levitated it the best she could and waited until the figure came closer.
BOOM! The force of the blow shook Twilight enough to make her fall back. A gushing thick red liquid came from the head of the unfamiliar figure. Part of the skull was indented in. Twilight felt instant guilt and depression. She....killed....another pony. This came upon her so quickly she didn't even realize. Rainbow looked up in disbelief.
"Twilight... you had to do what you had to do. If you didn't, we would probably be dead. It's ok Twilight.
Twilight shook her head. She may have brain damage, but she sure is right. Equestria has fallen since. Survival was indeed important. She wanted to stop Luna somehow, but just didn't really know how. She glanced at the dead body. There. Right on the back leg, a burn mark of the moon. It was a one of Luna's guards. The pony also had traditional armor for Luna as well. Good. At least she can feel a bit less guilty. She still couldn't get over the fact this was a normal pony. She probably wouldn't have done it if she could go back. She knew she wouldn't forgive herself. She also knew that this would have to be a change. They needed to get used to this stuff. It's a dark world, but if she wanted to do something about it, this would have to be an option. She knew what Luna did to them. They weren't real ponies anymore. These were mindless monsters in a state of broken sanity. No way of changing them back. They will kill without command. They were trapped. Twilight shed a tear and Rainbow cuddled up to her.
"Twilight, it's ok. You'll be fine." Rainbow could hardly believe how dark this world had become. She bet Twilight felt the same.
Celestia had a hard black look in her face. She broke the door to her Castle and stormed her way out. She flew away as fast as she could, straight toward the obvious kingdom for Luna.
"You better be sorry, sister." Celestia could feel the water trickling down her cheek. "You better be sorry."
