nyx and the nightmare demon warrior

Discord was NOT a happy camper. he had been had, duped, he had the wool pulled over his eyes. any way you spin the yarn he had lost. and here was the rub, the coup de grace, the cherry on his extra large mortification Sunday: the game he could be as chaotic as he pleased as long as he keep his options open. even with Nyx's intervention this Darkus character still BEET him. and with ease too.

now nyx was acting odd. she had the crushies, and this was not 'love at first site' that would have long been obvious. no this had all the tell-tale marks of mage play. it was recent, very recent. she enters the dream space normal and left love struck. now here was the hitch on love magic it can NOT be forced, only willingly can it work to it's fullest. and only a powerful full-blown top knoch spell cast by a arch love grand mage to effect a young alicorn and a god's level to a fully grown alicorn like Celestia or Luna. so she either started to like him a lot or he mixed Nyx in some kind of contract.

Darkus had his good points too. 1)what ever spell had been cast he didn't use it to harm any pony.2) he seem not only to survive sweetie belle's retched cooking monstrosities but seem to enjoy them with gusto. remaking that "sweets you cook better than half my famly and the other half doesn't cook!"

Darkus was looking at the door. then looking at a astrolabe contained  in a glass orb. then back to the door. after the tenth circuit he shook the 'labe as it tinkled. as he arched an eye brow, sighed, and put the orb away. "trust a nightmare's mother to be grossly late to her own party." the dark man groused. just then there was a knock at the door. "Nyx be a love and greet applejack, Fluttershy, rarity, rainbow dash, button mash and last but definately not lest twilight sparkle and spike."

Nyx blushed and opened the door and saw a array of concerned faces of the aforementioned ponies/dragon.

there was a chromatic blur pinned Darkus to Fluttershy's sofa. "what have you been doing with these four fillies that they didn't come home by moon rise. think long and speak clearly or your mr. happy will lose his chessnuts if i don't like your answer." dash hist wings flared defensively. they were taught as bowstrings.

Darkus merely smiled and . . . sank though the couch!! and emerged up-side-down on the ceiling. "why being nursed back to health by these four wonderful skilled mares and i will protect them with the powers of my attribute; darkness."

"We will stop your nefarious plans for we mhmf." twilight started only to have Fluttershy's dishtowel  fly into her open mouth. "are the bearers of harmony. blah, blah, i mean seriously the guardian name you come up with, did it have to be as cliche or were you just that pathetic. well meet half of the co-leaders of the immortal attributes and before you use your rainbow power to harm or banish  me just knowthe ones you'll truly hurt is these four fine mares and that strong young stallion."the dark man chided.

"Ah recon no harm no foul then"came the element of honesty.

"it is so cool some one likes your cooking SweBelle." button mash applauded.

"and he does have a way with fashion.and that frame has just got me riddled with ideas!!" rarity gushed.

"can we get back to the point that he beat me in a battle of wits!?!" screamed a distraught discord.

At that moment two ringers on Darkus's astrolabe buzzed. "half past stage 1 in the summoning of Pyris my sister, and sub-terra my brother. and would you look at that, haos my blasted light diva of a sister is here already. okay judging by apple blooms girth we need three quarter dozen loam pies with apple bark crust and iron ingots, loads of 'em with a jug of dragon peppers in nacho cheese stat. got that dizzy?" 'dizzy' merely blinked, face pawed,and asked the dumb question; "now why would i wannna do that?" witch was followed by "you wanna be responsible for a miss-summon i know you know how ugly they can be." discord pinched the bridge of his snout in a pained look of frustran. "as you wish.sir."

As soon as the pies hit the table apple bloom was muzzle deep. she was swallowing bark and top soil like she hadn't had a decent meal in a month of Sundays. all the while scootaloo was dipping the iron ingots in the cheese sauce then tossing them down her gaping gullet.

"what in tarnation? why are ya scarfing mud?"

"scoots that's IRON! that's iron bars for the love of flying!"

"this is like gobble masters but way more freaky."

"what could have compulsed them to eat such things."

"oh my i hope they don't get a tummy ache."

"you do that shy i on the other hoof am going to be sick . . . buh!"

"you decided to have a summoning party and didn't tell me??!"

"aannnnd que pinkie song and quirky antics"

"how did you do that, pinkie pie?"

"Wasn't me! pinkie swear!"  the pink party pony said head sticking out of fluttershy's kitchenette cupboard looking for all equus like the wife of jack-in-the-box. there was a collective gasp... all except scootaloo and apple bloom who were glowing red and brown respectively. and darkus who was looking in mild confusion.

"hey, why are my friends glowing?" sweetie asked no-pony-in-particular.

"and i feel some seriously major magic coming from deep within, and it is growing exponentially stronger. hey darkus, what you do to them?" said the zoo fused into one.

"specifically? nothing! in general? i may have cast rush and double summon, Superior. witch should come to fruition in . . . 10 . . . 9 . . . 8 . . . 7 . . . 6 . . . 5 . . . 4 . . . 3 . . . 2 . . . 1. . . miden! now let's give a warm ponyville welcome to my fav' little sister, empress of burning love and passion, she of the fire, pyrus! and let not 'leaf' out my favorite brother, barren of the green mountain,

he of earth, sub-terra!" darkus admitted. as two portals appeared. one under each of the booned mares. one looked like a female darkus in body. but she silk of deep crimson and gold with gold charms. her hair was atherial fire her skin finist bronze. she wore a simple bra over her c cup and pants and pointed shoes. while the other look for all equus like a tree reminiscent of the everfree made of brown=tan stone. two branches made his stong stone arms. he wore a loincloth down to what would be his knees if his leg did not make the perfect tree trunk like they did. he also wore a necklace of fossilized fangs, claws and shells.

"greetings and salutations!" said the metallic woman in a voice like the music of a steel drum. "now where is my future sister-in-law?"

". . . . ." is all the stone tree spoke for the longest time. then he spoke with a voice reminiscent of age breaking stone and stone.  like the music of the land if you cared to hear. "forgive my sister, pyrus was it? she is a hopeless case when it comes to romance of any kind, but this hits more than 'too close to home' for her."

"I say we had a long night and as much as i would like it to last forever, the morn must break. i say we head over to twilight's castle, each take a room and sleep on it." Darkus declared in a voice that could rival honey and butter for sweetness and smoothness.
