The Rise

"Soooo..... You knew what happened at canterlot high and you didn't tell me!" Twilight yelled.

"Well you should have known about it! Don't you have any sort of social media! Shining yelled.

"You know I only read books!" Twilight yelled.

"Lies! If you only read books you wouldn't be using this technology. Where did you get this stuff anyway!?" Shining asked.

"From school." Twilight said.

"From school! Twilight did you steal this stuff?"

"No I borrowed it."

"Twilight!"

"Ok! Maybe I did! They weren't using it anyway it was sitting in the library collecting dust!"

"Hey! Shut up down there!" Some guy upstairs yelled banging on the floor with something.

"I agree with guy upstairs." Norman said.

"There is a man still at large and if we don't find him he might kill everyone in town!" Norman said.

"You can continue this argument later.Right now we need to get in the car and head to HQ so twilight can help sweetie drops make the portal!" Norman finished taking a breath.

"So let's get going." Norman said walking out of the apartment with shining armor and twilight following shortly behind him. The drive had been mostly silent, having a few comments here and there. Once they arrived Norman and them got out of the car near a low populated area of town. Norman paused and looked at the building infront of them.

“Well this is it.” He said.

“This is just a barber shop.” Twilight said in confusion.

“Looks can be deceiving.” Norman answered entering the building. When twilight walked in it looked like a normal barbershop,people were even cutting hair here. Norman walked to the counter and started to talk with the man.

“Norman. I’ll tell her you’re back.”The man said dialing a number on his phone.

“Alright. Go on ahead.” He said grabbing a magazine for him to read. Norman motioned her to follow down a long hallway.

“Stay here.” Norman said as he went into what looked like a closet. He got back out telling them to come in. Twilight confused walked in anyway. When they were inside norman pressed a button and what used to be a closet started going down into the ground.

"This is an elevator!" Twilight said surprised.

"Told you."

Behemoth could hear police sirens heading there way so he turned to adagio who was laughing maniacally. Something he didn’t see coming.

“Are you done.” Behemoth asked getting annoyed.

“Why of course.” She said with a evil grin.

“Cops will be showing up any minute.”

“I’ll deal with them.” Adagio said ready to use her new powers.

“No. I want to give them a scare before you do anything to them.”

“It’s time for me to do another transformation of my own.” Behemoth said as he closed his eyes and began concentrating. The yellow aura surrounded him changing his human shape to something different. Adagio covered her eyes for the yellow light was to bright. When his transformation was complete all adagio could see was grey torso and brown haired legs with hooves on the end then looking up see saw a large brown hairy face then recognized the species.

“You’re a minotaur.” Adagio said.

“What did you think I was.”  Behemoth said before he heard the sound of police sirens getting closer. Then hearing tires suddenly stop.

“They’ve arrived.” Behemoth said paying attention to the cop with the megaphone.”

“Police! Get out of the building!”

“If I must.” He said walking out of the front door. He could hear the gasps and stunned looks of the police.

“What the hell are you.” One of the cops said in fear.

“Just a minotaur. Lucky day for all of you. You’re gonna be our first controlled slaves.” behemoth said walking back into the store.

“You know what to do.”  Behemoth said and with that adagio walked out the building to use her voice. The police were confused at what she was doing but noticed the necklace around her neck was lighting up and a green fog quickly spread around them. They tried to cover their mouth but failed. They felt as if their mind was starting to deteriorate trying to fight back until they gave in. Adagio smiled looking at the now controlled officers.

“What should we do with them.” Adagio said walking in.

“Tell them to set up a blockade around the city. I want the entire city to meet their new king.” Behemoth said.

“King!” Adagio yelled walking with him.

Bonbon and twilight were building the portal gun for what seemed like an hour. There was mostly silence in the room, with only a few requests to get something on the other side of the room for bonbon and twilight. Until bonbon decided to break the silence.

“hey. Thanks for helping twilight.”

“Your welcome, but how do you know my name?” Twilight asked. Bonbon realizing her mistake quickly recovered by reminding her of the agency. As she went back to work she noticed a strange lock thing around her neck.

“Well that’s a weird necklace.” Bonbon said jokingly.

“This? Twilight said grabbing it. “It’s not a necklace it’s a device to measure frequencies.”

“Mind if I take a look.” Bonbon asked curiously.

“uh...sure." Twilight said Hesitantly. As bonbon began to inspect it she took notice of how advanced it was.

“You built this. In your apartment.” Bonbon said actually impressed.

“Yeah.” Twilight blushed slightly. “It’s sortoff a thing I do.”

“I’d say you’re a lot smarter than I thought.” Bonbon complimented then a thought came into her mind.

“Have you ever thought of….Applying your smarts into a job?

“Well.. I did try to apply to everton…” She said. “But I was rejected.” She frowned.

“You know you could always work with us.” Bonbon offered.

“What!” Shining armor said. Before an argument could start norman’s phone started ringing.Confused he answered the call.

“Hello.”

“Norman. Thank god you answered.” Sunset said very relieved.

“Listen. There’s people all over the hospital trying to break in. So far me, and doctors are stuck in a room trying to hold the people back. Norman we need your help to get us out of here.

“There’s people attacking you. What do they look like?”

“They were normal an hour ago. That’s why I thi-” Suddenly over the phone norman could hear a loud boom and the voice of a doctor screaming.

“They’re breaking in! Hurry!” Sunset yelled hanging up the phone. Norman grabbed his coat and headed for the car as fast as he could driving straight to the hospital. While driving Norman took notice by how quiet it was the entire way. When turned to the next street he saw a ton of grim lock. But this wasn't a normal traffic jam, no one was in the cars. Norman could see the hospital 5 streets away. And decided to get out of his car.

"Guess I'm walking there." Norman said as he started walking through the cars  keeping his gun on his hands. Norman felt like he was being watched. He turned around rapid pace multiple times. When he had gotten to the front view of the hospital he could see people at the front entrance and what looked to be them attacking each other.

"What the hell is going on here?" He whispered. His train of thought was interrupted when he heard the sound of a car heading his way and turned his head to the noise. Seeing a car speeding towards him. Instinctively he dodged the vehicle before it could run him over and proceeded to shoot the tires out which made the car go speeding out of control making sparks and skids on the road then hitting a street pole knocking it down shattering the car's front window.

Norman cautiously walked towards the vehicle to check on the driver. As he looked through the window he noticed the man was knocked out. Seeing this Norman decided to open the door and get him out. What he didn't expect was for him to regain consciousness and attacked him. Norman was knocked on the floor struggling to fight back against this stranger. Norman paid close attention to him during the struggle and noticed this man has barely any muscle in him yet he's showing unbelievable amounts of strength. When Norman finally succeeded in fighting back he knocked the man back towards the car seeing his eyes for the first time. They were completely green not a single white in his eyeball. As he started charging towards Norman again he quickly stepped out of his way and punched the back of his head knocking him unconscious again. Without any time to spare Norman pulled out handcuffs and tied him up to broken street pole.

"Stay there!" He said before darting towards the front door of the hospital which was now completely barren.

Behemoth was sitting in his throne.

Behemoth had made his own throne by smashing a pile of cars into a chair and placed right in front of the horse statue, or what was left of the horse statue. Adagio was out controlling more people which left behemoth completely alone to sit down and wait for the outcome he predicted.

"Victory." He muttered to himself.

"Repetition!" It said.

"No! Not you again!" Behemoth yelled smashing his hand on his throne bending it a bit.

"You know you can't get rid of me so why even try?" It asked.

"I'll find a way. Why? Why do you make yourself known now?" Behemoth pleaded.

"To make you angry." It said.

"I'm not in the mood." He yelled.

"Yes you are. Oh and by the way congratulations on your 100TH world. Though I don't see a reason to tell them you've been in a thousand."  It said.

"Shut up." Behemoth said.

"I can't I'm just a voice in your head. Now why don't you tell me all about your day." It said.

"You've been in my mind since home. Why do I need to tell you everything when you already seen it."

"Because I tend to get lost. Seeing all the knowledge of every single universe has gotten me quite tired. So I repeat. How was your day?" It said.

"Terrible, as always." Behemoth growled out in annoyance.

"Aww. How sad you gonna tell me why?" It said in a condescending voice.

"My plan is working."

"Aw yes your plan. What was it?"

"Make a slave army with adagio as my queen and it's happened."

"........"

"That got you quiet." Behemoth pointed out.

"If your plan is working why be miserable about it." It asked.

"Victory was the plan when I got here but.... I've started to get to interested in the differences of this world from the rest."

"And."

"I always had a reason to kill worlds. But this one.......I've lost my reasoning."

"Behemoth? Are you getting....attached?" It said actually surprised.

"This cannot happen. Not after all we've been through. This world is no different from the rest you've murdered." It said.

"There's a couple unique's in this world." Behemoth said.

"Two Uniques! That's rare. What are their names?"

"Wilson and Norman."

"And who's wilson?

"A child." he answered.

"And norman? It asked.

"Agent. For a secret government also unique to this world. It seems it was aware of my presence."

"A universe aware of your presence? That doesn't sound good. Still my opinion remains this world is no different from the rest and shall be treated like the rest."

"I never should of came here." Behemoth said honestly.

"What! It was your choice to go here not mine! You could have made this world an observable one like the others. But you decided to go in anyway. And great work with all you've done here so far. I especially liked what you did with sunset shimmer."

"Shut up. I never should have touched her." Behemoth sympathetically.

"Geez. Listen to yourself! You're starting to become sentimental like your old self. It's this world isn't it. Does it remind you of something?

"My home universe. It's too similar even if it's not equestria."

" your equestria is dead and bare's no resemblance to this world. Perhaps you have forgotten your home before you destroyed it.I'll send you a reminder of it's condition." It said as it started triggering memories to appear in behemoths mind.

"Terror. Fear. Darkness. No mercy." Behemoth said describing each memory he saw flash by him. His entire world was a desolate place after he was done with it. Leaving only the animals and creatures of the everfree to gain control of it's remains.

"Elements of....Sin destroyed it. I cleansed it." Behemoth said.

"And that's when I came in to tell you the world needed to be free of intelligence and such." It said interrupting the memories going through behemoths head.

"Why."

"Why what?"

"Why tell me to cleanse it and...kill your physical form. You were a bearer of the element. The element of wrath."

"Because after you killed me I saw hope in you. That you could achieve Godhood."

"Then why burden me by making me go to a new universe in my weakest state?"

"Why should I make Godhood easy for you? A challenge is a challenge behemoth. And you've passed it multiple times by every universe you've destroyed. Oops sorry pal turns out I've got to leave you alone now."

"Why?

"Someone's coming."

"No wait! Don't go!" Behemoth.

"What are you yelling at? Adagio said snapping behemoth out of his trance.

"Nothing. Just talking to myself." He lied.

"Mmhhmm. Adagio said not believing a word.

"Whatever. I've got more slaves for the army."

"Good." Behemoth said getting up to look at them all.
