Devil
Chapter 4
Previous ChapterEveryone just stood there looking at Rainbow, Fluttershy, and Iridescent.
Celestia broke the long silence. "If this is some kind of joke-"
"No. I know it's hard to believe, but you will die if you go out there." said Dash.
"I think your lying." said Twilight.
"Why?" said Fluttershy.
"Because there's no way you could know all of this! You and Dash are only sixteen and Iridescent's twenty-something! You haven't lived as long as Celestia! Th-There's no possible way that you're right!"
"Twilight-" Fluttershy started.
"Actually, she's right. There isn't any logical way for you to be right, so you all have to drop your act and be serious." Celestia agreed.
"No, you don't underst-" said Rainbow Dash.
"I said to drop the act."
"Listen to us! We're trying to save you!" Iridescent screamed.
"Drop it. Now." It seemed like Celestia was showing a type of aggressiveness that was new to everyone.
"You know what? I'm done." said Rainbow Dash.
"Excuse me?" said Celestia.
"I'm tired of your shit! You act all high and mighty while we do all the work! Now that we're telling you what to do you're getting all jealous because you always want to be the fucking boss all the time!" The Element of Loyalty shook in the box that contained all the elements. "This is where you drew the line! If you can't listen to anything anyone else says, then you should just die! Go and fight him! SEE IF I CARE!" As Rainbow flew out of the room with Iridescent and Fluttershy following her, the Element of Loyalty turned black and cracked.
Everyone stood there looking at the element with their mouths hung wide open.
"What did we just do?" asked Twilight.
"She's jealous. That's all. It happens to a lot of people." said Celestia.
"But what about the elements?" asked Pinkie Pie.
"I don't know."
Rainbow Dash stormed into her cloud house. "FUCK EVERYTHING!" She plopped onto her bed and shouted in her pillow.
"Do you think she'll be okay?" Fluttershy asked. Iridescent listened through the door of Dash's room.
"I don't know. She's really mad. It also doesn't help that she hasn't turned into a demon, so her demon side might come out."
"Maybe we should go back to the others and make sure they don't do anything bad," Fluttershy suggested.
"You go ahead and do that. I'll stay here and watch Dash."
"Okay."
"Are you sure that this is a good idea?" asked Rarity.
"Yeah. What if they're right and we all will die? What if it'll hurt Dashie's feelings?" asked Pinkie Pie.
"It'll work." said Celestia in a voice that made everyone afraid to speak again. "Does everyone remember the plan?"
Pinkie, Rarity, and Applejack all shook their head.
"Ugh. First, Twilight and I will hold him still with our magic. Then, Applejack will tie him up with her rope. Lastly, Pinkie and Rarity will hold him still while I turn him into stone."
"Do you have a death wish?"
"Who said that?" Twilight frantically asked.
"Me." The rainbow maned man teleported in front of the group.
"NOW TWILIGHT!" Celestia said as she tried to take hold of him.
They concentrated as hard as they could, but they couldn't wrap him up in their magic.
"Come...on..." Twilight said.
After a few more seconds of trying, Twilight and Celestia became to exhausted to use their magic.
"Who...are...you?" Celestia asked as Applejack and Rarity helped her up.
"My name's Diavol. I know it's a stupid name, but deal with it."
"So...you're the demon that wants to destroy the city?" asked Twilight.
"Correction: I'm the devil that wants to destroy the world."
"Wait...Rainbow Dash said something about you and her being family. Is that true?" asked Applejack.
"Yep. I'm her dad. Also, you know too much, so die." He rushed at them as he made a black sword appear with a new type of magic. Before he could swing at Applejack, a different sword appeared, blocking his. This sword was pink with a green outline of someone's cutie mark engraved into the blade.
"F-Fluttershy?" said Applejack.
"I thought you'd do something like this." Fluttershy said as Diavol backed up.
"B-But...how?" asked Celestia.
"How many times do you have to hear it before you understand? I'm a demon." Fluttershy said before she rushed at Diavol and started fighting.
"Dash! For the last time, GET OUT OF BED!"
"No!"
"DASH!" Iridescent kicked down the door and pulled on Dash's legs, but dash held onto the bed frame.
"I DON'T WANT TO HELP THEM! I DON'T WANT TO HELP ANYONE! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE AND LET ME JUST SIT HERE IN MY ROOM!"
"DASH, YOU HAVE TO HELP THEM! FLUTTERSHY IS THERE AND IS PROBABLY FIGHTING DAD RIGHT NOW!"
"...Fine I'll go, but as soon as I know Fluttershy's safe, I'm coming back here." Dash said as she walked out of the room.
"Ugh. You can be so difficult sometimes." Iridescent mumbled.
"Oof!" Fluttershy just landed on a boulder and hurt her stomach.
"Give up already," Diavol said as Fluttershy struggled to stand. "You should give up and maybe I'll spare you."
"No...I'll n-never...give up." Fluttershy gripped her sword harder and flew towards Diavol. He pinned her down on the floor.
"Your so called friends didn't believe you when you tried to tell them you were a demon, so why help them?"
"How'd you-"
"I was in the castle. Surely you felt the gust of wind that one time. I made sure that I was noticeable."
A look of realization spread across Fluttershy's face. "Shut up! That doesn't mean anything. They were just confused."
"Then why did Celestia call Dash jealous after you all left?"
"She's...well...Celestia's not so trust worthy...and she's our enemy, but that doesn't mean that I have to betray my friends!"
"So, you can admit that Celestia's your enemy, but you can't admit that Celestia's slaves-"
"They aren't slaves!"
"Whatever. So you can't admit that they are also your enemies?"
"They aren't my enemies!" Fluttershy pushed him off her. She then kicked him back and flew away as fast as she could.
"They'll join me soon. It's only a matter of time until I put my plan into action.
