The deal of a millon bits [g]
Cold. I was freezing. I woke and looked around, I was in a snowy field and a blizzard was coming through. Cold ice chips whipped my eyes as soon as I faced the wind, out of self defense, my horn lit and my wings coved my face, my magic teleported me to a light I had viewed when looking to face the blizzard, it turned out to be a large kingdom, next to me I saw a dark unicorn. I stood up, staring at him. He growled at me but I just straitened my posture, not flinching one bit. I relized I could not greet him properly as my name slipped my memory... I actually couldn't remember any thing... suddenly a thought hit me like a dagger, Who am I? I relized a angered thought popped in my head, was this the pony who teleported my and made me look like a fool?
"Who are you?" I demanded.
"Who are you to challenge the great King Sombra?" He growled in a loud voice. I felt authority in my veins, and I suddenly remembered my name and title,
"Who are you to challenge Twilight Sparkle the princess of dark magic?" I boomed with a sudden, ferocious anger. Sombra recoiled, before he stood with a authoritive posture.
"Yes, I remember you, the one who challenged Celestia after she threw your mother, Queen Luna, her sister, in the Canterlot dungeons, and then banished you." A smirk formed on his dark muzzle, and his eyebrow raised, "How about a deal? I help you take place of Celestia In the kingdom and become empress, and you give me rule of this kingdom and possibly more land. So what do you say, Sparkle?" I thought about his deal, and then all my memories suddenly came back, causing my blood to boil.
Flashback
A maniacal laugh reached my ears coming from the throne room down stairs, I quickly dropped the book I was reading about ruling a kingdom, and ran through the doors of my room. A urgency to see if my mother, Queen Luna, was alright. Aunty Tia was quite authoritive over my mother and I didn't want mother to get harmed. Reaching the throne room I stopped at the doors. Surprisingly, there were no gaurds that I saw in my gallop to the trone room. peeping through the doors I watched them. Aunty Tia was looming over mother and she began talking,
"AHAHAHA You, you think that I'll let the moon rise tonight! Oh no no no Luna dearie the moon will never rise again, It blocks out my beautiful sun, never again shall the moon rise! Never!!"
"B-But sister! The ponies need their sleep! The animals need to rest! What about the tides? The water won't stay organized! There will be tsunamis! Sister please, it's your duty!" Mother pleaded. I stood there, stiff with shock. Aunty wanted to keep the day on forever! I felt paralyzed, I couldn't move.
"You dare defy me?" Celestia boomed, "Then I banish you to the deepest dungeons under Canterlot!" A door on the floor opened and Luna's legs and neck was encased in shackles, all connected by chains, and a magic sealer went over her horn, and binds over her wings. she was telepathicly lifted into the air and thrown like trash down the hole.
"NO!" I screeched flinging myself through the doors, but I was to late. The trapdoor closed and Mother's screams were sealed away. "MOTHER!" I turned on Aunty but her crazed look and twitching eye was already on me, her horn lit and blackness hit me like a crashing wave.
End Flashback
My wings snapped open and I growled menacingly. "Deal." I put out my hoof and we shook. Sombra began talking,
"See the crystal heart I'm the center of the field? It creates a powerful magic if you are to retrieve it you can harvest it's power and become more powerful than Celestia! Really all you have to do is get past the magical field, get through the-" I flapped my wings and flew towards the kingdom center, having come up with a plan while he was yambering on. Making my self presentable when flying, I landed in front of the large castle, picked up the crystal and flew back to Sombra, easier than expected, I thought. Sombra gaped at me.
"Wha- what? But I spent years coming up with a plan! H-how could you just so easily fly in there like y-your-" Sombra stuttered on before I cut him off.
"I'm a princess," I tapped my crown, "And mail is always late coming here, and the king and queen are my brother and sister-in-law." I gave him a dull look that basically said 'so now what captain-obvious?'
"Um, ok then," he handed me a scroll, "Just use this spell and you'll be able to harvest the power." I scanned the scroll with my magic and immediately knew it and learned it. 'Power harvesting, By Starswirl the Bearded, Will harvest power from any pony or object and any more power collected to the pony/object will flow to the caster' hmm, seems simple enough. I thought before casting it. Immediately a large flow of pure, raw magic flowed into me causing me to lift into the air with my wings spread wide, eyes white and glowing, surrounded by a ragged sparky aurora with blue, purple and bright pink streams of magic flowing from the heart into my horn this lasted for about a minute before I dropped to the ground. A mixture of exhaustion and exhilaration flowing through my veins. A devilish grin sneaked it's way to my muzzle and I shouted a wordless cry of triumph. Grabbing Sombra's attention I spoke,
"Now let's take over this kingdom!" He grinned and I grabbed him in my magic and we flew towards the crystal castle in a matter of minutes before landing on the balcony and galloping to the center of the room. "Brother please, help us!" I yelled urgently at Shining armor and Cadence.
"Twily? What are you doing? What are you doing with him?!" Shining asked franticly.
"Mother has been imprisoned, aunty snapped like we always knew!" I silently sent a message to Sombra telepathically. I'm going to convince him to help me and let me strengthen Cadence's magic, but in truth I'm going to cast the same spell, but limit it so I can alter the effects. "I need your help to revelation against Celestia and free mother! Sombra has joined our fight. I can increase Cadence's magic and we can free mother!" I pleaded, I had took a class on acting so my lie was completely hidden.
Shining reluctantly agreed. I walked over to Cadence and touched my horn to hers'. She looked at me as my magic began to flow. But one she realized what the spell was I quickly silenced her with another spell. Silently I sent Sombra a telepathic message again, Distract Shining with some plans or something. I heard them begin talking about ideas to defeat Aunty. Sister Cadenza look at me with pure terror and I let a small smirk form on my muzzle. Restrain Shining Armor and put a magic sealer on his horn, I sent to Sombra. I heard a muffled thud right before I heard slight grunt come from Shining Armor behind me and my smirk grew as I heard a metal magic sealer slide onto Shining's horn. I put on the spell on and her Cadence slightly groan in pain. I knew she wouldn't give me the pleasure of hearing her shriek. The spell was very painful for the victim, I might add. Well, I thought, I'll make her shriek. I felt raw magic flow into my horn and I willed a whip into existence. I whipped cadence with it in my magic. She screamed into her mouth. Good, good. I'm pushing her over the edge. picking up the whip in my magic, I whipped her cutie mark, one of the most sensitive parts of a pony's body. She shrieked and I laughed. I looked past cadence's head and saw a diagonal shaped gash across her cutie mark. Finishing up the spell, I took several steps back. With out me to support her weight, cadenza fell to the ground and closed her eyes. I looked back to shining and saw sombra had done as I instructed and put a magic sealer on shining's horn and put him spread eagle across the floor with chains holding him down. Good, I thought. I looked at sombra who was,currently sitting on my brother's back, and put a disobedience collar on his neck. The collar would shock them if they didn't do as told and/or back talked.
"Get off my brother," I commanded at sombra, who was holding a hoof to the collar and trying to get it off with his magic. A shock made him get off. Noticing that he was trying to get it off I put a magic sealer around his horn. "Ah, ah, ah! Only the one who casts the spell on it can remove it!" I cooed. I willed a crystal cage into existence and a roll of strength suppressing tape. I wrapped the duck tape-like tape around each of sombra,shining, and cadence's thighs before picking them up in my magic and put them in my cage. I'm to give him the land... eventually. I thought. I tested my magic and found I had cadence's magic as well. So, that means I can make people get super horny seeing as cadenza has love powers? Cool. I went to the balcony of the crystal castle and began to talk I'm the royal canterlot voice,
"CITIZENS OF THE CRYSTAL KINGDOM!" I boomed, "YOU ARE NOW UNDER THE CONTROL OF QUEEN TWILIGHT SPARKLE! SUBMIT OR FACE MY WRATH!" I saw all the ponies had come out of their abouds and saw about 89/100ths of the ponies bow to me. A few stared before bowing, some automatically bowed, and a few flat-out refused. I began shouting again,
"ALL ROYAL GAURDS ARE TO REPORT TO THE THRONE ROOM!" I herd the sound of galloping towards the throne room and I sat in the throne and primed myself up. I destroyed the cage in the middle of the room and indented one into the wall against my right and put my captives in the cage. The guards burst into the room. some came to the middle and bowed to me and the 45 out of 50 that refused began charging at me. I huffed at this and grabbed all 45 in my magic. Picking randomly I ripped off a male guard's front leg, splattering blood everywhere. "Now, any more refusals?" Some bowed their head submissively and I lowered them to the floor. Now 38 remained.the one who's leg I had ripped off still struggled franticly. I ripped off his other front leg. More blood. This time a splat landed at the corner of my mouth. I liked it off. I gave them a hard stare and more bowed their head. Now 15 remained. I ripped off his two hind legs and all but a female submissed. Ha! Good. A male and a female. I thought with a small smirk. I ripped off her front leg, but slowly twisting it instead of just ripping it off. I enjoyed her shrieks of pain. She tried submit by lowering her head.
"Oh, no, no, no!" I cooed teasingly, "There's no submitting now!" They were both pegsi so I only put the strength suppressing tape on their legs and wings. I left the mare's last three legs on and I sewed the skin around the wounds close after applying a infection-stopping liquid to it. I threw them into a cage I conjured up in the wall opposite to the former leaders and villain.
Well, this is going to be an eventful day...
Here I come empress-hood. [G/s]
Well this is going to be an eventful day...
I conjured up 48 clear crystal disobedience collars and attached them to all of my guards. I pointed my hoof at the cage that heald Sombra, Cadence, and Shining Armor.
"Now look," I growled. they turned their heads toward the cage. Silence hung in the air only broken by the sound of breathing. Suddenly a few mere seconds later shocked gasps and cries of out rage was heard. I just used my magic and shocked them all.
...
Silence
...
"Ok now you are to collect the army, General Forest. Bring them here and put these suits on them. oh, and put magic sealers on the unicorns, oh wait! There are no crystal unicorns!," I added in a sneer, "Just leave the wings of the pegasi out they'll need them." I knew the genral would obey as a shock rippled though him as when he did not take the dark-ish lavender suits that I handed him in my magic.he took them rughly and stalked away. Little do they know that those suits will make them mindless servants to me. I thought devilishly. I got impatient after a few minutes.
"Now, Forest! Thou hastn't all day!" I shrieked at the hallway. Soon a strangled, muffled cry was heard through the halls. He must have been stalling... I thought gruffly. Soon rows after rows of army soldiers marched into the throne room before putting of the suits that lay on their backs, that reveled to be the same color of my coat with my cutie mark emblazed on multiple places. The earth ponies who didn't have wings had fake white ones on their suits.
I looked in satisfaction as there eyes lost the color and changed to a deeper magenta. (Look in picture above to see color.) Their eyes had lost the shine in them.
"We await command, Mistress Sparkle." The said in unison. I grinned devilishly.
"Yes, I would like you to call me High Empress Twilight and hmm.. also, collect the royal guards and put them in the dungeons. Oh, and leave Flash Sentry and General forest in a separate cell. I have a bone to pick with them. Also, and the ones missing a limb or four are no longer considered guards." I added looking at the two outcasts. I watched as the royal guards were takin away with two soldiers at each guard. A minute or two later my soldiers returned.
"Stay completely still." I ordered. I then took my magic and in the back of their neck I engraved their new name/ cerial number. (Aka I engraved each guard with a different number with it going up, starting from 0.) "Now," I began, "follow me as we are to take over this empire! Oh and Sombra, you can rule this kingdom now. I just didn't want you to get in my way." I added, "But I'm coming back for general Forest, Flash and the two I broke the limb(s) off." I continued before teleporting out Sombra and removing his collar and magic suppresser. He happily trotted to the throne and sat down. "Also, I'm giving control of the disobedience collars on the guards." He grinned devilishly.
I saw no more as I lifted of the ground with a majestic flap of my wings and flew out the balcony door. I looked behind me and saw a neat triangle of purple soldiers behind me. While flying I casted a spell to where my soldiers' wings to where al the end of their three longest primary feathers would have retractable blades. As I flew over the empire I saw that Celestia had set white banners at a variety of sizes with her cutie mark on them. I looked closer and saw on top there was words written in orange 'Celestia's Empire' and on the bottom a slightly darkened, but very much visible, yellow sentence. 'Of a greater time now than before'. Then I felt a bit exasperated as I pondered that sentence. Harrumph. She's referring to the fact that she defeated my dear mother. She must be so happy, after all she was defeated by Luna when she became Solar Blaze. Aunty must be on the edge of sanity not to turn again. That's why she banished Luna. I finally reached Canterlot and saw outside the door to the castle grounds were two more of the banners in a large size and by the door to the castle itself was two more super sized ones. I cast a spell over my soldiers and I. The spell was supposed to give temporary invisibility. Hmm... I think I shall call my soldiers tines. It fits. I wonder if tine means something else. I'll research that. I Swooped in the throne room and landed in front of Celestia. Her eyes were pin picked and her smile was not of a gentle like usual, but that of a crazed. I primed my self as I realized I was a mess from my quick flying. I lit my horn and my battle regalia appeared on me. It was enchanted black obsidian that was meant to increase my magic and protect the wearer. I stopped my spell on my tines and I and faced aunty with my wings outward so I looked bigger than I was.
"Hello, Aunty."
"Twilight. I have been wondering if you would come here." Her voice was a calm motherly tone even though her expression betrayed her real emotions. She stood and walked over to me, her wings open in the same fasion as mine.
"Then you know why I am here."
"Hopefully. To save your mother and let her take rule of my empire?" She guessed. I could not stop a small devilish smile from forming on my face.
"Oh so, so close. Well.. not really. Yes, I am here to save mother. But it is me who is taking over this kingdom." She clearly had not seen my tines yet.
"Ha! You and what army?" She laughed. My soldiers rose in the air.
"This army." I murmured. "Tines, attack!" I bellowed suddenly. "Restrict her guards with sealers of magic, wings, tape, what ever it takes so they are defenseless!" I ordered suddenly and quickly.
"Solar guards, attack!" Celestia shouted. I summoned a horn sword, and charged at Celestia. Aunty didn't have a chance to even prep herself as a slammed the side of my head into her side. She was knock to the ground with her crown clattering to the left, down the stairs of her throne. I willed a magic sealer into existence and threw it over her horn. Not even bothering to get a wing restrictor, I grabbed her right wing, which was the one she wasn't laying on, at the base and popped it out of place so she couldn't fly away. I did the same to her left front leg, all the while I listened to her shrieks of agony. I looked up and saw my tines had restricted all of the solar guard. The top of all the solar guards' necks had a collar around it with a 1 in. leash attached to it that was connected to the floor so the looked like they were bowing to me.
"Hello my new guards!" I cheered happily. "Now are you going to support me of become worthless pleasure bags?" They thought I was joking apparently as they broke out in 'no' or 'we'll never support you!' or 'you'd never do such a thing!'. So I choose the most rebellious and angry one who was a quite muscular head-strong male and the most rebellious, angry female that was actually quite pretty. I removed their collars and lifted them to my sides in my magic. The female was a pegasus and the male was a unicorn.
"Now, I know you all think I'm joking or bluffing. So instead of telling you I'm not I am going to show you." I lifted the two to my right-hoof side. I spread their legs and put a bar between them so they were exposed. I then took my magic and lifted their tails so they were fully shown. I lifted a leg to show my guards this. I frowned as I realized that they couldn't see this. I extended their collars so they were 6 inches long. When they saw it they shrank back at the fact that the saw another's privacy. I cast a spell on the two captives so they would become horny. The male's length grew quite a bit and the female started trying to relive herself. I restricted them with my magic so they couldn't. "So, need to see more or do you give?" A little bit more than a half bowed to me. "I warned you." I mumbled with a shake of my head. I restrained the front hooves of the ones who didn't bow and cast the same spell. They began struggling. "Submit, and I will stop." They bowed. I felt a weak magic aroura grab my leg lamely. I looked down to a golden aroura. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. This will result in severe punishment, Celeslut." I turned to Celestia, who was stare at me in shock at my nickname for her. I brought down my hoof on her left leg heavily, which snapped in response. She let out a blood-curdling scream and her magic failed, but I just smiled gleefully. Ha! And she probably thinks this is her punishment. Well she is very, very wrong. This is only the beginning.
"Tine #145, take this trash to dungeon and guard it. Make sure she is kept alive, and in the cage." I commanded. The tine immediately got Celestia and dragged her to the dungeons.
Hello, empress-hood...
