Dan and Zaniphar vs My Little Pony

Chapter 5: Things get Dark

Pain, that was all that Celestia could feel. A sharp, stabbing pain, that coursed through her heart. As if a sword was being plunged into it again and again, yet the owner of said weapon refused to let her die. It was, in a sense, torture. However, the pain began to fade, as she opened her eyes to the world. She hoped that everything that she saw prior to being knocked out was but a dream. She wished that she was back at the castle, all of her little ponies, alive and well. But when her eyes finally opened to their fullest, she saw that it was not a dream, it was all real. And there, the masterminds behind this calamity stood, facing towards her, with mouths that grinned and showed all of their teeth, including the canines, which did not help Celestia's mood at all. These two monsters, who had started all of this. Dan and Zaniphar.

"Oh! it's sooooo good to see you awake princess, now we can start with the killing," Dan said, a wicked smile plastered on his face, as his eyes reflected the elegant dance of the ethereal fire that was almost finished consuming Ponyville. Most of the Buildings were now nothing but charred piles of ash, but the blue fire does not stop burning, until its original caster puts it out. And that castor happened to be Zaniphar, who had no intention of putting it out, yet.

"Yes, I must say that Dan and I have been getting bored out of our minds waiting for you, Luna, and Candance to wake up," he said, sounding rather bored.

"Why don't ye just kill us and get it over with?!" Luna spoke while coughing up blood.

"Because," Dan said," you destroyed my car and just killing you will be too much of a mercy, no, if I'm going to get revenge, I must make you suffer over a thousand fold. which is why Zaniphar and I have devised the perfect way to do that." Dan then turned his head to the right, causing the alicorns to look that way as well. What they saw, made their hearts skip two beats. Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship and newly made alicorn, was in the jaws of a massive black dragon, that was once her assistant, Spike. She was not dead, but Spike was only inches away from chomping down and splitting her in half. Applejack and Pinkie Pie, were both being held in choke holds both struggling to get a single breath of air. Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash were in the same situation, except they were dangling in the air. Lastly, Rarity was in a black sphere of magic, conjured spears protruding inward ready to skewer her. And the mane sixes captors, were none other than the turned Spike, and CMC.

"What shall we do with them now, masters?" Scootalo asked, keeping a firm grip on Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. Dan simple turned to the three princesses. After getting a good look at the fear in their eyes, he uttered the two words he knew they were dreading to hear.

"Execute them."

Spike bit down, cutting Twilight down the middle, swallowing her lower half, while her top half sailed through the sky. As the blood spectacle, created courtesy of Twilights body doing 360 flips in the air, started coming to Equis, Applebloom snapped Pinkie and Applejacks necks. Then, faster than the eye can see, she got ten barrels, and filled to the brim. Five contained apple cider, and five contained frosting. She then took two automatic pumps(given to her by Dan), attached one of them to the apple cider and Applejack, and attached the other to the frosting and Pinkie Pie. She then stood back and watched as they were pumped so full of frosting and cider, that they were as big as an adult dragon's claws and as round as an orange. Then, Scootalo took off at the speed of light, easily beating Rainbow's Sonic Rainboom hands down. As she flew, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash's skin started to peel off, revealing their muscles, tendons, and vital organs. Then those started to go, dropping onto the remains of Ponyville, creating something akin to 'organic' party streamers. This continued, until Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash, were nothing more than skeletons, which Scootalo deposited right next Applejack and Pinkie. Lastly, Sweetie Bell simple moved the spears, and pierced Rarities body. Then she let her magic bubble go, and Rarities body hit the ground at the same time Twilights did.

The three princesses had watched the whole thing with nothing but disgust. They just saw some of the most powerful ponies in Equestria, die before their eyes. Celestia and Luna had seen death before, but this was emotional pain on a whole new level for them. For Candance, it almost drove her to suicide. However, there was something...off. Even though the mane six were dead...

"We...can...st-st-still...hear...their cries," they all said at once.

"THATS RIGHT BIIIIIITCHESSSS!" Dan shouted out, much to the irritation of the alicorns,"WHILE I DO WANT REVENGE, I ALSO WANT TO MAKE YOU SUFFER AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE! SO RATHER THAN OUT RIGHT KILL THEM, I'M KEEPING THEM ALIVE. THEY CAN STILL FEEL THE PAIN, YES, AND EVEN THOUGH I AM HEALING THEM, IT IS ONLY ENOUGH TO KEEP THEM ALIVE, SO THAT I CAN DEAL THE FINAL BLOW TO ALL OF YOU!" Dan strode forward looking Celestia in the eye, even though he exuded so much malice, it felt like he was looking all three of them in the eyes at the same time. Dan said this next part very slowly and with a large sense of finality,"I'M GOING TO MAKE YOU KILL THEM YOURSELVES, AND THEN EAT THEIR REMAINS."

It took a while, but sooner or later the weight of what Dan just said clicked into the nine mares heads. "NEVER! WE WOULD NEVER DO SOMETHING SO HORRIBLE!" Luna said slipping into the Royal Canterlot Voice.

"Oh, who said you had a choice!" Dan said as he pointed his finger at them. The alicorns suddenly screamed. They could feel something dark working its way into their heads, hoping to gain control over their actions. Even though they each tried to fight it off with their magic, the darkness simple swallowed up whatever they threw at it.

"What is this magic you wield!?" Celestia questioned, nothing they had ever faced had this type of power.

"Its called pure evil, my heart is so dark, that I can harness the evilness that resides within every corner of every world, or universe. And, with Zaniphar's training, I can now bend it to my will, and do anything with it!" Finally, the darkness seized control of the alicorn's motor functions. However, as according to Dan's plan, they left the three with their self awareness, so they would know how helpless they were at this moment in time.

"Good, I see that the evil as taken over your motor functions, as the author just said, now go and finish them," Dan said as he pointed to the mutilated mane six. The three alicorns tried to resist the influence, but they found their bodies moving with a purpose towards their friends. All they could think was "No, no, no, we have to do something!" But there was nothing they could do as they found themselves each standing next to or over one of the mane six. Celestia was over Twilight's now face down torso, as its living head sobbed uncontrollably. Luna was standing in the middle of Applejack and Pinkie, neither able to speak, because their lungs were filled with cider and frosting, however their eyes spoke for them. When Luna looked into them, she found pain, sadness, and a longing for death. Candance was in between the skeletons of Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy. As each raised their heads from the dirt, they looked at Candance with empty eye sockets, but even Candance knew what they both wanted.

Celestia started it off as she raised her hoof above Twilight's head, her shadow right on top of her target. Twilight brought her face up, looked at the princess, then at the hoof above her, and smiled. "T...ha...nk...y...o...u..." she said in between coughs of blood.

Celestia looked down, tears in her eyes as she said, "I'm sorry..." Then the darkness brought her hoof down...hard. She finally broke down as she felt the squishiness and wetness of the grey matter, blood, and bone, that used to be her number one student, and best friend. Luna was next, not wanted to draw anything out as ordered by Dan, the darkness poked holes in both Pinkie and Applejack in rapid succession. The ruptures caused air, frosting, and cider to escape from the two ponies, as they shot into the sky above Ponyville, cider and frosting covering everything and everypony(and dragon) there. Soon the frosting and apple cider stopped as the two balloons began to. Instead, blood and organs began to shoot out of the ruptures, further adding to the macabre festival on Ponyville. Soon Applejack, and Pinkie's bodies flattened out and floated down from the sky, landing on the hard ground with a sigh, like the spirits were glad to be free of the pain. Lastly, the darkness inside Candance finished off both Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash in about the same way Celestia did, by crushing the skulls that were left of their heads.

Then, while they were all still crying, their bodies began to move towards Rarities, which was on the ground sobbing, creating a mixture of blood and tears. The darkness forced Luna to lift Rarity, belly up, and legs spread, like she was on an operating table. Then, Celestia and Candance both took out a magical spear from Rarities body, placed them right were her neck met her torso, then brought them down in a quick downward cut. Rarity screamed bloody murder, as her skin ripped open, revealing her heart and other organs. The three alicorns were at the same time horrified and confused. If Dan wanted to make them suffer, why do this, why not just have them kill Rarity. The nauseating answer came when the darkness forced their necks down, and forced them to eat Rarity from the inside out. Rarity screamed even louder as she was turned into a dinner plate, while the alicorns feasted upon her innards. Soon Rarities screams ceased, as Celestia ate out her heart. The alicorns ate all of Rarity, her lungs, intestines, kidneys, liver, everything. Then when they finished eating her skin, they instantly moved on to the remains of the rest of the mane six. They didn't leave a single trace of them, not even the bones. Once all was said and done, the alicorns collapsed to the ground and sobbed quietly. They had no emotions left to describe what they felt at that point in time. They tried to force their friends bodies from them, but the darkness forced their bodies to keep the remains in their stomachs.

Dan smiled, because he knew his revenge was almost complete. He killed the mane six and broken the three alicorn princesses of the moon, love, and sun. Now their were only two things left to do, kill them and glass the planet. He strode towards them triumphantly, and stopped right in front of them. "This is what happens to people or ponies, who fuck with me," he said to all three of them.

Celestia looked up at him, her eyes raw from crying so much, and her muzzle red from the blood of her friends," I only have two things left to say to you, one: please spare Equis and two: IT WAS JUST A CAR!"

Dan used his magic to grab all of them by the throats and began to lift them off of the ground. Zaniphar thought he looked like Darth Vader in the Star Wars films. "TO ANSWER YOUR FIRST THING, NO I WILL GLASS THIS ENTIRE PLANET! TO ANSWER YOUR SECOND THING, IT WASN'T JUST A CAR, IT WAS MY CAR!" And with that, Dan used the evilness inside of their heads, and blew them up.
