It was then Double Rainbow’s energy, soul, magic, and power entered me. It was Double Rainbow’s spirit, the good karma from his life, and the evil energy from his zombie life. I was changing. My body was in a process of transformation with a rainbow of colors shinning from me. There is a swirl of rainbow energy that engulfed me drowning me like water. With a rainbow flash, Rainbow Moon had appeared. Rainbow Moon exclaimed diabolically laughing, “I return!” Night Wish exclaimed, “Nnnnnnnnoooooooooo!” Rainbow Moon was a black alicorn, with rainbow colored mane and tail with blue eyes and hooves. His cutie mark was a full moon encircled by a rainbow (red on the outside, purple next to the moon). His magic was symbolized by rainbow energy, including his attacks and defenses. Rainbow Moon was still Rainbow Heart, but he was now Double Rainbow fueled. Rainbow Moon used to have wings, but they were removed against his will. Rainbow Moon had awoken. I, Rainbow Moon, was resurrected. I stretched out. “What a ride.” I stated. Looking around my neck, I said, “Ah! The coveted Element of Tragedy. It’s mine now.” Looking at the saddle, I stated, “It’s Double Rainbow’s Knife, perfect.” My attention turned to Night Wish. I had no idea that Forest Savior and Outback were listening in from outside of The Rainbow Spa. I used magic and braced Night Wish against a wall. I barked walking up to her, “You made me cut off my own wing, after you severed the other one.” Night Wish shot back, “You deserved it.” Night Wish chided, “You look hideous without your wings.” I said to Night Wish striking a pose, “Bitch, I’m fabulous.” I further added, “Lucky for you, I need you alive.” After a brief pause, I stated, “Balance Must Be Restored.” Night Wish was struggling against the rainbow aura of my magic. “What are you going to do?” Night Wish asked. I chuckled and said, “First stop Ponytopia to get my belongings, then to Ponytown for some aesthetic improvements, and then to The Temple of Idiots to save my lover. And you get to come too. It will be so much fun.” Using magic I secured Night Wish’s hooves together binding them with rainbow chains, straps, and shackles. With a rainbow flash we were in Rainbow Heart’s House in Ponytopia. On the wall, hanging for display was the rug. The special rug had a yin and yang symbol in the center of it with other magical ornamental designs on it, it was a gift from Rainbow Heart to Double Rainbow, his ex significant other. Before me was the yin and yang rug all bloody and torn. I took off Rainbow Heart’s rainbow saddle and put it on the horse saddle display rack in the room. I used magic on the rug. The rug transformed into my armor and mounted on my body. My blue armor consisted of a helmet, chest, and hoof plates. But on the heart shaped chest plate was a yin and yang symbol with a sun on the left white side and a moon on the right black side for dots and the yin and yang circular symbol was surrounded by a round rainbow like my full moon cutie mark. I removed Double Rainbow’s Knife from the rainbow saddle and secured the sheath to my armor. I looked outside the den window. There was nothing but the sight and stench of death. I stated, “I sense no pony is alive out there. Looks like no ponies apparently survived the madness spell cast on Ponytopia. They are all dead, the town is wiped out.” The thought brought Night Wish to tears. They had failed. In the flash of a rainbow, Night Wish and I were teleported to Ponytown, my machine village and castle. Ponytown was created by me. It had its own castle, The Machine Castle. Rainbow Moon’s Lair as it was called by the alicorns was my castle. It was a highly mechanized town with traps set all over. Some of it looked like rusty metal with gears and was highly mechanical. Some of the parts were old and rusty, some of the pieces were brand new, and all of the components were working together as a whole. There was barbed wire all over. It was created by magic by Rainbow Moon. In my machine castle there were deadly traps. Large piston, cylindrical like traps smashing up to the ceiling and others crushing down into the ground on a rhythmic flow, specifically synchronized. Besides the pistons were, large circular saw blades, chainsaw like blades, razor blades, axe like blades designed to chop, rectangular crushing metal blocks in a machine like design to squash ponies besides the cylinders, and large knife blades designed to slaughter anypony unwelcome into my castle, The Machine Castle. The town was fueled by my dark energy. There were many other traps, technically, the palace was one large trap with all sorts of blade traps. I designed the castle with my own spa and fashion design rooms. There were also ponnequins (mannequins), various dress forms, different models of pony anatomy, massage tables, massage chairs, sewing machines, and all the other equipment and items needed for my personal pleasures and passions. I had planned to turn this machine city into a location on the map of Equestria, named Ponytown. The town was built with the intent of becoming fully populated with the Elements of Disharmony bearers living here. They would draw all the dark ponies here to study and use their gifts, their talents for good, relatively-speaking. That was still my wish, but it seemed unlikely it would happen. I transported directly into my workshop. Night Wish was tied up and laying on the floor unable to move still. I constructed metal wings for myself relatively quickly, using Double Rainbow’s engineering expertise and powerful magic. I secured it around my abdomen by a belt. I gave it a quick test run. The wings flapped normally, but since they weren’t biological, they were a little bit slower than the real things. They also lacked maneuverability as well, but they would work, for now, until I could find a spell to bring back my severed wings. I looked at Night Wish and stated, “Who’s ready to slay some cult members? I know I am. I, being their God, know that it is my duty to save them from the evils of Equestria. The best way to do that is with their deaths.” I let out an evil chuckle. In the flash of a rainbow we transported to The Temple of Starlight, or as it was known by The Order of Rainbow Moon, The Temple of Rainbow Moon. Chapter 2 The Temple of The Order of Rainbow MoonIn a rainbow flash, we were there at the temple. The Order of Rainbow Moon’s Temple was located on an ancient graveyard near The Great Fortress, which was used during The Great Pony War, the ripest of souls could be harvested here by evil ponies. The Great Fortress had been Double Rainbow’s base of operations during his terror attacks. I stated, “You’re God is here to deliver you.” Night Wish was tied up and on the ground struggling to get away to no avail. Noticing her commotion, I stated, “Don’t go anywhere, friend. This will only take a moment.” I left to slaughter the six cult members. It was then Forest Savior and Outback came out of the woods seeing Night Wish and freed her. “How did you two?” Night Wish asked. Outback replied, “It was easy really. We overheard everything yall said in the spa. Not to mention The Order was bright enough to use candles in the night as they retreated back to their temple. Real bunch of geniuses in that pack.” “We have to get Night Wing and get out of here before Rainbow Moon notices I’m gone.” I, on the other hoof was tending to my followers with a slice of Double Rainbow’s Knife to their necks. They didn’t even fight back. They knew it was coming. It was their moment of glory. I entered a room and found Night Wing secured to an altar, obviously they were preparing to sacrifice him to me, their deity. “Who are you?” Night Wing asked. “I’m here to save your ass, lover boy.” I stated. “You’re lover has arrived.” Night Wing shouted, “You’re not my lover! I’m with Rainbow Heart not you, you creep! You’re nothing but a freak of nature.” Clearly, Night Wing did not realize that I was Rainbow Heart, just in a different form. Night Wing didn’t recognize that Rainbow Heart was Rainbow Moon. This upset me a lot. I clenched my teeth, my blood boiling and my lungs breathing heavily. In my rage, I knocked over a ceremonial altar nearby, many items on it flew all over the place, including an athame, wand, chalice, cauldron, lamp, broom, and candles. “You will love me!” I barked. “For now, you lack understanding and comprehension.” I left Night Wing tied up on the altar, knowing that Night Wish would be along to save him momentarily. There was a reason why I brought her, and she would not disappoint me. I feared that Night Wing might not recognize me, but I knew Night Wish would bring him around to me. I continued forward going from room to room looking for any more members. I saw one dart away and fired a rainbow blast from my horn striking the pony who got hurt and fell to the ground dead, or so I thought. It was the leader and he was feigning death by playing possum. I fell for it. When I left the room continuing the search for more cult members to slaughter, he got up and limped out the out of the temple, going to the tombs behind the temple. Still going through the temple. I entered another room. There was a cult member there who was wearing a different cloak. It did not wear their normal cloak, which was distinctive. The usual cloak was Rainbow Moon’s breastplate symbol was on the sides of their black cloaks, where there cutie marks would be on the clothing. The symbol was a yin and yang symbol with a sun on the left white side and a moon on the right black side for dots and the yin and yang circular symbol was surrounded by a round rainbow. Instead it was wearing It is wearing a rainbow cloak with a “0” written on the back of it in gold and silver. I asked, “What are you?” 0 (Zero) replied, “I am your destined lover.” I informed, “I have a love interest.” 0 “I have everything you could ever want. I am biologically pure.” The pony took off the cloak being naked. Rainbow, otherwise known in The Order of Rainbow Moon, as, “0,” was a hermaphrodite pony, having both genders. It was found by The Order in a small tribe in Equestria, and was an order member. It was a gift to Rainbow Moon to serve as his slave and sidekick. It was named, “Rainbow.” It had a full female functional body with working male genitalia as well. It was a black earth pony with orange hair and mane with orange eyes. Its cutie mark was a rainbow. I circled around the pony inspecting its body. I stated, “You’re mindless. You are of no use to me. You’re just a body.” 0 informed, “I am yours to fulfill all of your appetites and to be married to you, a gift from The Order.” I commented, “I have no inventions of that, but I could use a sidekick. Follow me.” The pony followed me putting its cloak back on. I let It tag along with me. I might need the help. It started to storm heavily all of a sudden. “That is not a good sign.” I stated, “Nature brings its storm. But why? There is no cause for this. Nature is unnaturally out of balance.” Night Wing was saved shortly later by Night Wish, Forest Savior, and Outback from his chains. Night Wish explained everything to him. The gist of it being that In order to save Night Wing, Rainbow Heart transformed himself into Rainbow Moon, which is what The Order wanted. The ponies fled into the Everfree Forest. On there way to the Everfree Forest, they notice the leader, wounded badly. Night Wish stopped to watch what he was going, while summoning with her hoof for the others to head into the forest. It was understood that she would catch up. The leader was still alive, the rest were killed. The leader was injured but not fatally. The unicorn stood before a pile of pony bodies she recognized as the Dark Doom Gang members. They had piled the bodies outside above the graveyard that rested behind the temple. The Dark Doom Gang’s souls were stored in the sacred special crystal from the Crystal Empire, which the leader wore. It was a necklace on a black string that the leader of the cult had. He took it off of himself. “Rainbow Moon has delivered us from the evils of Equestria. The Death Alicorn will rise and try to destroy it. I summon you, the Death Alicorn to do battle. Rainbow Moon will save Equestria forever.” 1 shouted out loud. The Order Leader, 1, with a flash of lightning streaking through the sky and the crash of thunder, jammed the crystal on his necklace into Poison Heart’s dead body, which was on top of the pile. A dark void surrounded the pile of dead ponies. The Death Alicorn was raised using the souls of the Dark Doom Gang, which included Poison Heart, Storm Cloud, Onyx, Black Widow, Skull & Crossbones, and Storm Watch by the leader of The Order of Rainbow Moon. Night Wish knocked 1 out from behind. She took the necklace, thinking it can be used against Rainbow Moon, since it apparently had the unique ability to store souls. She rushed after the other ponies to hide. She did not want to be present for the battle that was about to occur. The dark void that surrounded the pile of dead Dark Doom Gang members turned into one black mass seeping into the ground. The Death Alicorn came out of the ground with an earthquake and the ground shaking and splitting, along with a lightning flash and a thunder explosion. Its tentacles were flailing in the air, and it let out a booming roar. The ground at a graveyard also released the ancient souls from the cemetery to add to the Death Alicorn’s power, being absorbed into the creature. The Death Alicorn was black with bone wings, tentacles flailing from his back, a pony skull bone helmet surrounded his head, and it had one long skeleton like horn along with bone armor protecting his body in some places resembling the lunar guard attire. Its cutie mark was a tombstone. Some spirits of ponies floated around him like an orbiting satellite around the earth, but most of all the souls infused themselves into the body form. A few of the souls would fly into and out of him. The Death Alicorn had appeared. The earthquake had gotten my attention. I looked outside from a balcony with 0 next to me, and I saw The Death Alicorn. I angrily stated, “So you deceive me, heretic.” I added, “I knew you were up to something. Looks like I got a battle on my hooves.” I jumped onto the railing of the balcony and fired a rainbow blast from my horn, striking the Death Alicorn. It looked up at me and threw scythes at me. I dodged the attack, going airborne. The creature soon followed. I sensed the presence of the Dark Doom Gang within the creature. I sensed danger around me and dodged, avoiding an attack. I spun around and teleported behind the beast, firing a discharge from my horn both at the Death Alicorn’s face from the front and then at his butt when I transported behind him. The face blast missed, but the butt bullet did not. The Death Alicorn flew close to me and responded with a tentacle attack that had green tentacles. I countered with my own tentacle spell, they were rainbow in colored. The tentacles were equally matched. We exchanged blows back and forth. But it wasn’t long before I won’t the fight. The creature fell from the air and crashed into the Everfree Forest. I discharged a massive rainbow ball from my horn that struck the ground where he fell, destroying everything there. I highly doubled any beast could survive that. I returned and picked up zero, we teleported to my lair in Ponytown. The cult leader lived and escaped to Bucktown. If there were any ponies that survived in Ponytopia, the madness spell on Ponytopia was released after The Order members were killed, except the leader. Chapter 4 The Battle of PonytownIt was the afternoon. The Death Alicorn healed and was now supercharged. The Death Alicorn attacked Rainbow Moon at Ponytown, the second fight. It was now Nightmare Night one year after the first zombie incident. Night Wing and Night Wish along with the other two were watching the battle from the ground, carefully. I was awoken by explosions to the outside of the Rainbow Moon Castle, the vibrations knocking me out of bed. “It returns.” I stated. “You will die Death Alicorn.” I used magic to turn my horn into a chainsaw, the horn remained the same but rainbow colored energy emanated from it that was sharp chain like blade and rotating. I revved up the magical energy chainsaw that my horn had become, the chain blade spinning and making a roaring revving sound. I flew out the window and confronted the Death Alicorn. I charged and cut him with the chainsaw blade of my horn, cutting his outer skull. With a powerful kick, he knocked me back. The battle continued, until I was able to sever its head with my chainsaw horn. The head fell to the ground, the body right behind it. It plowed into the ground and sunk into it defeated. No doubt the souls would return to the graveyard for whence they came. The bodies, or the goo that was left of them, would remain underground decaying. I let out an evil laugh. No alicorn could beat me now. Soon the Solar Alicorn, the Lunar Alicorn, the Crystal Alicorn, and the Librarian Alicorn would face my revenge. I was already scheming it. Chapter 5 The Return To NormalIt was now in the evening hours. The stars were twinkling in the night sky. I was sitting at my throne, relishing in the victory. It was then Night Wing entered into my chamber. “Night Wing.” I stated. “Hey, there, pumpkin.” Night Wing stated. “I admit now that you Rainbow Moon, formerly Rainbow Heart, is my lover. I didn’t know. I have come to terms with it and accept you for the way that you are. It is the promise I made to you.” Night Wing came up and licked my hoof, worshipping me. It tickled me on the inside. “Is there a bed we could retire to my love?” Night Wing asked. “Yes, my dear. Follow me.” I replied. I led him to my bedroom. “I knew you’d come around, dear.” I said, putting my hoof on his face. Night Wing walked around me, licking me in my private areas, arousing me. I figured Night Wing was going to mount me first before I mounted him. Night Wing got to my rear end and lubed himself, or so I thought. Rainbow Moon was defeated by Night Wing shoving the lubed crystal into Rainbow Moon’s butthole. I thought that it was Night Wing’s penis within me. I stated, “Ah that feels fabulous.” A bright light from my buttock and an intense pain occurred. Something was wrong. I shouted in a panic, “What? What did you do? No!” Double Rainbow’s soul got sucked into the crystal transforming Rainbow Moon back into Rainbow Heart in a flash of rainbow light. Double Rainbow’s soul was now sealed into the crystal from the Crystal Empire. It was a necklace on a black string that the leader of the cult had, but Night Wish had taken it. Rainbow Heart returned to his former self. The armor fell to the floor, turned back into the rug. Night Wing stated, “Rainbow Heart, you’re back.” I, uncomfortably, responded, “Yeah, I’m fine.” I added, “You can take that out of my tail hole now, darling. It hurts.” Night Wing removed it carefully from his lover’s body by the string. “Thank you, darling.” I stated. “I’m going to be sore.” Night Wing informed, “We might want to wash this before we take care of it.” Night Wish, who was watching from the doorway, entered and said, “It worked. You did it.” Looking around, Night Wish asked, “Where’s 0?” I answered, “I don’t know what happened to Rainbow. The last I saw 0 was in Rainbow Moon’s Throne Room. It’s not here. I don’t know where It went.” The three of us conspired to keep the whole Rainbow Moon and Death Alicorn part out of their interviews with the Alicorn Princess they knew would be coming up, in order to save Rainbow Heart severe punishment. It was time to return to Canterlot to inform the Alicorn Princesses of the events. The sleep spell came from behind. The unicorn used his horn that glowed magically. I yawned and the other two did as well. “I feel tired all of a sudden.” I stated. “We didn’t get much sleep the last few days.” Night Wing stated. “Yeah, a few hours of sleep wouldn’t hurt.” Night Wish stated. The ponies got knocked out by a sleep spell and the crystal was taken, along with the rug that had turned into the armor, and Double Rainbow’s Knife and sheath. Chapter 6 The RebirthAt a hidden location in the Great Fortress, ponies met up. There was Pawter Pony, Peace Herb, Secret Love, and Platinum Will. Pawter was a red stallion unicorn with a white underbelly looking similar to a fox. He has black tipped ears and blue eyes. His mane was red and his tail was red with a white tip. His cutie mark was a fox. Peace Herb was a dark green male earth pony with light green mane, tail, and eyes. His cutie mark was a marijuana plant leaf. Secret Love was a white female pegasus with blonde mane and tail and blue eyes. Her cutie mark was a red heart with a lock in the center of it with a key off to the side looking like it was going into the keyhole. Platinum Will was a mare earth pony that was orange with a lighter color orange mane, tail, and eyes. Her cutie mark was a heart with platinum shield in the center of it. They had brought along two other surviving ponies who recently decided to get married. The mare was named Forest Savior who was light green with dark green mane, tail, and eyes. Her cutie mark was three trees together. She loved forests and animals. The stallion was named Outback. He was red with orange mane, tail, and eyes. He had a cutie mark of a large knife. He was a survivalist and capable of doing a lot of handiwork and farmhand work. They had met there to do a ritual. A ritual was performed by the survivors of Ponytopia to bring the pony who promised them revenge against the pony who wronged all of them back to life with a brand new flesh and blood body. 0 was willingly sacrificed itself. Zero stated, “Rainbow Moon himself said that I am just a body. I know what my real task is now.” Pawter asked, “Are you sure you want to do this.” 0 smiled and stated, “I am not afraid. It’s my duty to serve Rainbow Moon or to do whatever it takes to bring him back into existence. By bringing this pony back to life, I will be able to aid in that quest. I will be with my fellow order members in the afterlife.” “Then we need to begin.” Pawter Pony said. “It won’t be long before my sleep spell wears off on the heroes of Ponytopia.” 0 went into an industrial wood chipper alive rear hooves and rear end first, maximizing the pain. The blood and body pieces and parts scattered over the table the survivors were encircled around, sitting in chairs. Pawter Pony performed The Reborn Spell taught to him by the ethereal ghost they were trying to bring back. His horn glowed red, the table and mess of body glowed rainbow in color. The skeleton appeared first, then muscles, tendons, and ligaments appeared, followed by organs inside the body, and then finally the outer organs, skin, hide, fur, mane, and tail hair formed. The necklace was hung around the pony’s body, the essence being absorbed into the body. The pony that was dead was now alive with a new body just like his old one. With a smile, the pony said, “I have led you to the truth and in return you have given me life. I will now show you have to save an evil pony.” Pawter Pony gave him the rug and knife that belonged to him. “All of you have served me well.” The unicorn informed. Chapter 7 The Dark SurvivorsIt was evening. The survivors were in Bucktown, the slaughterhouse more precisely with a guest. They had kidnapped the The Order of Rainbow Moon leader responsible for everything. It’s was their revenge for their suffering. 1 was bound by an intricate web of barbed wire around his nipples and his two hind legs. The rug was placed on the ground in between 1 and a pony hidden in the shadows. The other survivors had surrounded 1 to witness the even in plain sight of the pony tied up by the sharp pronged wire. 1 woke up, groggy and in pain. “What is this? What is going on?” 1 stated. The group said in unison, “We know the past, the present, and the future. When it comes to you 1, or as your real name is Equal Minded we know everything. You were the pony responsible for the resurrection of the dead at the Stones of The Wicked, then you murdered the Dark Doom Gang, you poisoned the ponies of Ponytopia with the madness spell resulting in all of their deaths, and you massacred Bucktown ponies in the slaughterhouse. You are an evil pony. You need to learn how to become a good pony. It means that you have to suffer the consequences from your actions and that your punishment should reflect the wrongdoings you have done.” “You torture me with my own religion!” 1 shouted. “You know nothing of the cause of The Order of Rainbow Moon.” Pawter Pony, the disciple of the rainbow horned unicorn, walked forward with Double Rainbow’s Knife floating in the air using magic and cut off his right nipple, which released tension on one of the bound hooves so 1 could move. Pawter dropped the knife in front of 1. “In order to free yourself, you will have to remove the other nipple yourself.” Pawter stated. The group went from surrounding him to standing on the other side of the rug as a group. 1 cut off the other, which was most painful and had no shortness of blood. The other barbed wire gave away due to the severance of the nipple. 1 stood there, debating what to do. Pawter stated, “I’m sure you remember this pony. When we were suffering, he appeared to us in ghost form to let us know that we would be okay and that we would get our revenge on the evil pony who committed those crimes. In the aftermath, he guided us to the truth. We saved him from death and brought him back to life.” The mysterious pony walked forward, stepping into the candlelight. The white unicorn with a rainbow horn walked forward his hooves clopped against the ground. The unicorn stated, “I’m back.” After a moment, the unicorn added, “I am reborn. No thanks to you.” 1 shouted, “You forsake me!” The rainbow horned unicorn said, “And you betrayed me by raising the Death Alicorn. Regardless of which, it will not undue the evils you have done against ponykind.” Enraged 1 rushed towards the rainbow horned unicorn with the knife and activated the trap by crossing the special rug. The trap activated a barbed wire tripwire. It grasped 1’s rear hooves and pulled him up to the ceiling where a circular blade cut the pony in half from the groin through his head. What a terrible, terrible death, but justice was served. Blood flowed from the corpse. Some of it landed on the white unicorn’s face, much to his delight. He loved it when the blood of evil ponies splattered and dripped on his face, falling down like teardrops unswept away on his cheeks. The rainbow horned unicorn was alive again. The survivors of Ponytopia, the unicorn’s new brood now, had committed a Double Rainbow style trap on the evil pony. Their lesson learned for tonight. The unicorn ordered them to get his knife and rug and to follow him. More evil ponies awaited their punishment. Chapter 3 The Next StepIt was now morning. At Ponytown, 0 and I were in my throne room, I was sitting on my throne in my lair. Zero, sexually, said flirting with me, “I am here to fulfill all of your every needs.” I, disgusted, stated, “Shouldn’t you be ritually sacrificing yourself to me or something?” I was only interested in Night Wing, not this dumb hermaphrodite. “If that is your will.” It replied. I held my breath and clenched my teeth, marching away, leaving the room upset. Unknown to me, Zero was knocked out and abducted behind me as I left for my bedroom to rest. The Death Alicorn fled to the Pollution Zone. It consists of a polluted lake (Poison Lake) and forest (Junkyard Forest), being the dumping grounds of Manehattan and the rest of Equestria. The Death Alicorn hid and grew in strength. It gained strength from the dying plants and animals from the pollution, devouring their souls in order to heal and grow in power. Night Wing, Night Wish, Forest Savior, and Outback were near Ponytown. Night Wish and Night Wing were going over the plan to bring back Rainbow Heart back. Night Wish showed Night Wing the crystal. Night Wish stated, “Now we have to return Rainbow Moon back into Rainbow Heart. This is not going to be easy. This crystal has the capability to store a pony’s soul. We can use it to extract Double Rainbow’s spirit from Rainbow Moon. That should bring back Rainbow Heart. However, the crystal has to be inside Rainbow Moon’s body for it to absorb Double Rainbow’s Essence. You are going to have to find a way to get it in his body, and you’ll have to do it sneakily and quietly.” Night Wing sneezed. Night Wish looked at him and frowned. Night Wing stated, “Sorry. I still am sick you know.”
Chapter 1 The ResurrectionIt was still in the evening. It was then Double Rainbow’s energy, soul, magic, and power entered me. It was Double Rainbow’s spirit, the good karma from his life, and the evil energy from his zombie life. I was changing. My body was in a process of transformation with a rainbow of colors shinning from me. There is a swirl of rainbow energy that engulfed me drowning me like water. With a rainbow flash, Rainbow Moon had appeared. Rainbow Moon exclaimed diabolically laughing, “I return!” Night Wish exclaimed, “Nnnnnnnnoooooooooo!” Rainbow Moon was a black alicorn, with rainbow colored mane and tail with blue eyes and hooves. His cutie mark was a full moon encircled by a rainbow (red on the outside, purple next to the moon). His magic was symbolized by rainbow energy, including his attacks and defenses. Rainbow Moon was still Rainbow Heart, but he was now Double Rainbow fueled. Rainbow Moon used to have wings, but they were removed against his will. Rainbow Moon had awoken. I, Rainbow Moon, was resurrected. I stretched out. “What a ride.” I stated. Looking around my neck, I said, “Ah! The coveted Element of Tragedy. It’s mine now.” Looking at the saddle, I stated, “It’s Double Rainbow’s Knife, perfect.” My attention turned to Night Wish. I had no idea that Forest Savior and Outback were listening in from outside of The Rainbow Spa. I used magic and braced Night Wish against a wall. I barked walking up to her, “You made me cut off my own wing, after you severed the other one.” Night Wish shot back, “You deserved it.” Night Wish chided, “You look hideous without your wings.” I said to Night Wish striking a pose, “Bitch, I’m fabulous.” I further added, “Lucky for you, I need you alive.” After a brief pause, I stated, “Balance Must Be Restored.” Night Wish was struggling against the rainbow aura of my magic. “What are you going to do?” Night Wish asked. I chuckled and said, “First stop Ponytopia to get my belongings, then to Ponytown for some aesthetic improvements, and then to The Temple of Idiots to save my lover. And you get to come too. It will be so much fun.” Using magic I secured Night Wish’s hooves together binding them with rainbow chains, straps, and shackles. With a rainbow flash we were in Rainbow Heart’s House in Ponytopia. On the wall, hanging for display was the rug. The special rug had a yin and yang symbol in the center of it with other magical ornamental designs on it, it was a gift from Rainbow Heart to Double Rainbow, his ex significant other. Before me was the yin and yang rug all bloody and torn. I took off Rainbow Heart’s rainbow saddle and put it on the horse saddle display rack in the room. I used magic on the rug. The rug transformed into my armor and mounted on my body. My blue armor consisted of a helmet, chest, and hoof plates. But on the heart shaped chest plate was a yin and yang symbol with a sun on the left white side and a moon on the right black side for dots and the yin and yang circular symbol was surrounded by a round rainbow like my full moon cutie mark. I removed Double Rainbow’s Knife from the rainbow saddle and secured the sheath to my armor. I looked outside the den window. There was nothing but the sight and stench of death. I stated, “I sense no pony is alive out there. Looks like no ponies apparently survived the madness spell cast on Ponytopia. They are all dead, the town is wiped out.” The thought brought Night Wish to tears. They had failed. In the flash of a rainbow, Night Wish and I were teleported to Ponytown, my machine village and castle. Ponytown was created by me. It had its own castle, The Machine Castle. Rainbow Moon’s Lair as it was called by the alicorns was my castle. It was a highly mechanized town with traps set all over. Some of it looked like rusty metal with gears and was highly mechanical. Some of the parts were old and rusty, some of the pieces were brand new, and all of the components were working together as a whole. There was barbed wire all over. It was created by magic by Rainbow Moon. In my machine castle there were deadly traps. Large piston, cylindrical like traps smashing up to the ceiling and others crushing down into the ground on a rhythmic flow, specifically synchronized. Besides the pistons were, large circular saw blades, chainsaw like blades, razor blades, axe like blades designed to chop, rectangular crushing metal blocks in a machine like design to squash ponies besides the cylinders, and large knife blades designed to slaughter anypony unwelcome into my castle, The Machine Castle. The town was fueled by my dark energy. There were many other traps, technically, the palace was one large trap with all sorts of blade traps. I designed the castle with my own spa and fashion design rooms. There were also ponnequins (mannequins), various dress forms, different models of pony anatomy, massage tables, massage chairs, sewing machines, and all the other equipment and items needed for my personal pleasures and passions. I had planned to turn this machine city into a location on the map of Equestria, named Ponytown. The town was built with the intent of becoming fully populated with the Elements of Disharmony bearers living here. They would draw all the dark ponies here to study and use their gifts, their talents for good, relatively-speaking. That was still my wish, but it seemed unlikely it would happen. I transported directly into my workshop. Night Wish was tied up and laying on the floor unable to move still. I constructed metal wings for myself relatively quickly, using Double Rainbow’s engineering expertise and powerful magic. I secured it around my abdomen by a belt. I gave it a quick test run. The wings flapped normally, but since they weren’t biological, they were a little bit slower than the real things. They also lacked maneuverability as well, but they would work, for now, until I could find a spell to bring back my severed wings. I looked at Night Wish and stated, “Who’s ready to slay some cult members? I know I am. I, being their God, know that it is my duty to save them from the evils of Equestria. The best way to do that is with their deaths.” I let out an evil chuckle. In the flash of a rainbow we transported to The Temple of Starlight, or as it was known by The Order of Rainbow Moon, The Temple of Rainbow Moon.
Chapter 2 The Temple of The Order of Rainbow MoonIn a rainbow flash, we were there at the temple. The Order of Rainbow Moon’s Temple was located on an ancient graveyard near The Great Fortress, which was used during The Great Pony War, the ripest of souls could be harvested here by evil ponies. The Great Fortress had been Double Rainbow’s base of operations during his terror attacks. I stated, “You’re God is here to deliver you.” Night Wish was tied up and on the ground struggling to get away to no avail. Noticing her commotion, I stated, “Don’t go anywhere, friend. This will only take a moment.” I left to slaughter the six cult members. It was then Forest Savior and Outback came out of the woods seeing Night Wish and freed her. “How did you two?” Night Wish asked. Outback replied, “It was easy really. We overheard everything yall said in the spa. Not to mention The Order was bright enough to use candles in the night as they retreated back to their temple. Real bunch of geniuses in that pack.” “We have to get Night Wing and get out of here before Rainbow Moon notices I’m gone.” I, on the other hoof was tending to my followers with a slice of Double Rainbow’s Knife to their necks. They didn’t even fight back. They knew it was coming. It was their moment of glory. I entered a room and found Night Wing secured to an altar, obviously they were preparing to sacrifice him to me, their deity. “Who are you?” Night Wing asked. “I’m here to save your ass, lover boy.” I stated. “You’re lover has arrived.” Night Wing shouted, “You’re not my lover! I’m with Rainbow Heart not you, you creep! You’re nothing but a freak of nature.” Clearly, Night Wing did not realize that I was Rainbow Heart, just in a different form. Night Wing didn’t recognize that Rainbow Heart was Rainbow Moon. This upset me a lot. I clenched my teeth, my blood boiling and my lungs breathing heavily. In my rage, I knocked over a ceremonial altar nearby, many items on it flew all over the place, including an athame, wand, chalice, cauldron, lamp, broom, and candles. “You will love me!” I barked. “For now, you lack understanding and comprehension.” I left Night Wing tied up on the altar, knowing that Night Wish would be along to save him momentarily. There was a reason why I brought her, and she would not disappoint me. I feared that Night Wing might not recognize me, but I knew Night Wish would bring him around to me. I continued forward going from room to room looking for any more members. I saw one dart away and fired a rainbow blast from my horn striking the pony who got hurt and fell to the ground dead, or so I thought. It was the leader and he was feigning death by playing possum. I fell for it. When I left the room continuing the search for more cult members to slaughter, he got up and limped out the out of the temple, going to the tombs behind the temple. Still going through the temple. I entered another room. There was a cult member there who was wearing a different cloak. It did not wear their normal cloak, which was distinctive. The usual cloak was Rainbow Moon’s breastplate symbol was on the sides of their black cloaks, where there cutie marks would be on the clothing. The symbol was a yin and yang symbol with a sun on the left white side and a moon on the right black side for dots and the yin and yang circular symbol was surrounded by a round rainbow. Instead it was wearing It is wearing a rainbow cloak with a “0” written on the back of it in gold and silver. I asked, “What are you?” 0 (Zero) replied, “I am your destined lover.” I informed, “I have a love interest.” 0 “I have everything you could ever want. I am biologically pure.” The pony took off the cloak being naked. Rainbow, otherwise known in The Order of Rainbow Moon, as, “0,” was a hermaphrodite pony, having both genders. It was found by The Order in a small tribe in Equestria, and was an order member. It was a gift to Rainbow Moon to serve as his slave and sidekick. It was named, “Rainbow.” It had a full female functional body with working male genitalia as well. It was a black earth pony with orange hair and mane with orange eyes. Its cutie mark was a rainbow. I circled around the pony inspecting its body. I stated, “You’re mindless. You are of no use to me. You’re just a body.” 0 informed, “I am yours to fulfill all of your appetites and to be married to you, a gift from The Order.” I commented, “I have no inventions of that, but I could use a sidekick. Follow me.” The pony followed me putting its cloak back on. I let It tag along with me. I might need the help. It started to storm heavily all of a sudden. “That is not a good sign.” I stated, “Nature brings its storm. But why? There is no cause for this. Nature is unnaturally out of balance.” Night Wing was saved shortly later by Night Wish, Forest Savior, and Outback from his chains. Night Wish explained everything to him. The gist of it being that In order to save Night Wing, Rainbow Heart transformed himself into Rainbow Moon, which is what The Order wanted. The ponies fled into the Everfree Forest. On there way to the Everfree Forest, they notice the leader, wounded badly. Night Wish stopped to watch what he was going, while summoning with her hoof for the others to head into the forest. It was understood that she would catch up. The leader was still alive, the rest were killed. The leader was injured but not fatally. The unicorn stood before a pile of pony bodies she recognized as the Dark Doom Gang members. They had piled the bodies outside above the graveyard that rested behind the temple. The Dark Doom Gang’s souls were stored in the sacred special crystal from the Crystal Empire, which the leader wore. It was a necklace on a black string that the leader of the cult had. He took it off of himself. “Rainbow Moon has delivered us from the evils of Equestria. The Death Alicorn will rise and try to destroy it. I summon you, the Death Alicorn to do battle. Rainbow Moon will save Equestria forever.” 1 shouted out loud. The Order Leader, 1, with a flash of lightning streaking through the sky and the crash of thunder, jammed the crystal on his necklace into Poison Heart’s dead body, which was on top of the pile. A dark void surrounded the pile of dead ponies. The Death Alicorn was raised using the souls of the Dark Doom Gang, which included Poison Heart, Storm Cloud, Onyx, Black Widow, Skull & Crossbones, and Storm Watch by the leader of The Order of Rainbow Moon. Night Wish knocked 1 out from behind. She took the necklace, thinking it can be used against Rainbow Moon, since it apparently had the unique ability to store souls. She rushed after the other ponies to hide. She did not want to be present for the battle that was about to occur. The dark void that surrounded the pile of dead Dark Doom Gang members turned into one black mass seeping into the ground. The Death Alicorn came out of the ground with an earthquake and the ground shaking and splitting, along with a lightning flash and a thunder explosion. Its tentacles were flailing in the air, and it let out a booming roar. The ground at a graveyard also released the ancient souls from the cemetery to add to the Death Alicorn’s power, being absorbed into the creature. The Death Alicorn was black with bone wings, tentacles flailing from his back, a pony skull bone helmet surrounded his head, and it had one long skeleton like horn along with bone armor protecting his body in some places resembling the lunar guard attire. Its cutie mark was a tombstone. Some spirits of ponies floated around him like an orbiting satellite around the earth, but most of all the souls infused themselves into the body form. A few of the souls would fly into and out of him. The Death Alicorn had appeared. The earthquake had gotten my attention. I looked outside from a balcony with 0 next to me, and I saw The Death Alicorn. I angrily stated, “So you deceive me, heretic.” I added, “I knew you were up to something. Looks like I got a battle on my hooves.” I jumped onto the railing of the balcony and fired a rainbow blast from my horn, striking the Death Alicorn. It looked up at me and threw scythes at me. I dodged the attack, going airborne. The creature soon followed. I sensed the presence of the Dark Doom Gang within the creature. I sensed danger around me and dodged, avoiding an attack. I spun around and teleported behind the beast, firing a discharge from my horn both at the Death Alicorn’s face from the front and then at his butt when I transported behind him. The face blast missed, but the butt bullet did not. The Death Alicorn flew close to me and responded with a tentacle attack that had green tentacles. I countered with my own tentacle spell, they were rainbow in colored. The tentacles were equally matched. We exchanged blows back and forth. But it wasn’t long before I won’t the fight. The creature fell from the air and crashed into the Everfree Forest. I discharged a massive rainbow ball from my horn that struck the ground where he fell, destroying everything there. I highly doubled any beast could survive that. I returned and picked up zero, we teleported to my lair in Ponytown. The cult leader lived and escaped to Bucktown. If there were any ponies that survived in Ponytopia, the madness spell on Ponytopia was released after The Order members were killed, except the leader.
Chapter 4 The Battle of PonytownIt was the afternoon. The Death Alicorn healed and was now supercharged. The Death Alicorn attacked Rainbow Moon at Ponytown, the second fight. It was now Nightmare Night one year after the first zombie incident. Night Wing and Night Wish along with the other two were watching the battle from the ground, carefully. I was awoken by explosions to the outside of the Rainbow Moon Castle, the vibrations knocking me out of bed. “It returns.” I stated. “You will die Death Alicorn.” I used magic to turn my horn into a chainsaw, the horn remained the same but rainbow colored energy emanated from it that was sharp chain like blade and rotating. I revved up the magical energy chainsaw that my horn had become, the chain blade spinning and making a roaring revving sound. I flew out the window and confronted the Death Alicorn. I charged and cut him with the chainsaw blade of my horn, cutting his outer skull. With a powerful kick, he knocked me back. The battle continued, until I was able to sever its head with my chainsaw horn. The head fell to the ground, the body right behind it. It plowed into the ground and sunk into it defeated. No doubt the souls would return to the graveyard for whence they came. The bodies, or the goo that was left of them, would remain underground decaying. I let out an evil laugh. No alicorn could beat me now. Soon the Solar Alicorn, the Lunar Alicorn, the Crystal Alicorn, and the Librarian Alicorn would face my revenge. I was already scheming it.
Chapter 5 The Return To NormalIt was now in the evening hours. The stars were twinkling in the night sky. I was sitting at my throne, relishing in the victory. It was then Night Wing entered into my chamber. “Night Wing.” I stated. “Hey, there, pumpkin.” Night Wing stated. “I admit now that you Rainbow Moon, formerly Rainbow Heart, is my lover. I didn’t know. I have come to terms with it and accept you for the way that you are. It is the promise I made to you.” Night Wing came up and licked my hoof, worshipping me. It tickled me on the inside. “Is there a bed we could retire to my love?” Night Wing asked. “Yes, my dear. Follow me.” I replied. I led him to my bedroom. “I knew you’d come around, dear.” I said, putting my hoof on his face. Night Wing walked around me, licking me in my private areas, arousing me. I figured Night Wing was going to mount me first before I mounted him. Night Wing got to my rear end and lubed himself, or so I thought. Rainbow Moon was defeated by Night Wing shoving the lubed crystal into Rainbow Moon’s butthole. I thought that it was Night Wing’s penis within me. I stated, “Ah that feels fabulous.” A bright light from my buttock and an intense pain occurred. Something was wrong. I shouted in a panic, “What? What did you do? No!” Double Rainbow’s soul got sucked into the crystal transforming Rainbow Moon back into Rainbow Heart in a flash of rainbow light. Double Rainbow’s soul was now sealed into the crystal from the Crystal Empire. It was a necklace on a black string that the leader of the cult had, but Night Wish had taken it. Rainbow Heart returned to his former self. The armor fell to the floor, turned back into the rug. Night Wing stated, “Rainbow Heart, you’re back.” I, uncomfortably, responded, “Yeah, I’m fine.” I added, “You can take that out of my tail hole now, darling. It hurts.” Night Wing removed it carefully from his lover’s body by the string. “Thank you, darling.” I stated. “I’m going to be sore.” Night Wing informed, “We might want to wash this before we take care of it.” Night Wish, who was watching from the doorway, entered and said, “It worked. You did it.” Looking around, Night Wish asked, “Where’s 0?” I answered, “I don’t know what happened to Rainbow. The last I saw 0 was in Rainbow Moon’s Throne Room. It’s not here. I don’t know where It went.” The three of us conspired to keep the whole Rainbow Moon and Death Alicorn part out of their interviews with the Alicorn Princess they knew would be coming up, in order to save Rainbow Heart severe punishment. It was time to return to Canterlot to inform the Alicorn Princesses of the events. The sleep spell came from behind. The unicorn used his horn that glowed magically. I yawned and the other two did as well. “I feel tired all of a sudden.” I stated. “We didn’t get much sleep the last few days.” Night Wing stated. “Yeah, a few hours of sleep wouldn’t hurt.” Night Wish stated. The ponies got knocked out by a sleep spell and the crystal was taken, along with the rug that had turned into the armor, and Double Rainbow’s Knife and sheath.
Chapter 6 The RebirthAt a hidden location in the Great Fortress, ponies met up. There was Pawter Pony, Peace Herb, Secret Love, and Platinum Will. Pawter was a red stallion unicorn with a white underbelly looking similar to a fox. He has black tipped ears and blue eyes. His mane was red and his tail was red with a white tip. His cutie mark was a fox. Peace Herb was a dark green male earth pony with light green mane, tail, and eyes. His cutie mark was a marijuana plant leaf. Secret Love was a white female pegasus with blonde mane and tail and blue eyes. Her cutie mark was a red heart with a lock in the center of it with a key off to the side looking like it was going into the keyhole. Platinum Will was a mare earth pony that was orange with a lighter color orange mane, tail, and eyes. Her cutie mark was a heart with platinum shield in the center of it. They had brought along two other surviving ponies who recently decided to get married. The mare was named Forest Savior who was light green with dark green mane, tail, and eyes. Her cutie mark was three trees together. She loved forests and animals. The stallion was named Outback. He was red with orange mane, tail, and eyes. He had a cutie mark of a large knife. He was a survivalist and capable of doing a lot of handiwork and farmhand work. They had met there to do a ritual. A ritual was performed by the survivors of Ponytopia to bring the pony who promised them revenge against the pony who wronged all of them back to life with a brand new flesh and blood body. 0 was willingly sacrificed itself. Zero stated, “Rainbow Moon himself said that I am just a body. I know what my real task is now.” Pawter asked, “Are you sure you want to do this.” 0 smiled and stated, “I am not afraid. It’s my duty to serve Rainbow Moon or to do whatever it takes to bring him back into existence. By bringing this pony back to life, I will be able to aid in that quest. I will be with my fellow order members in the afterlife.” “Then we need to begin.” Pawter Pony said. “It won’t be long before my sleep spell wears off on the heroes of Ponytopia.” 0 went into an industrial wood chipper alive rear hooves and rear end first, maximizing the pain. The blood and body pieces and parts scattered over the table the survivors were encircled around, sitting in chairs. Pawter Pony performed The Reborn Spell taught to him by the ethereal ghost they were trying to bring back. His horn glowed red, the table and mess of body glowed rainbow in color. The skeleton appeared first, then muscles, tendons, and ligaments appeared, followed by organs inside the body, and then finally the outer organs, skin, hide, fur, mane, and tail hair formed. The necklace was hung around the pony’s body, the essence being absorbed into the body. The pony that was dead was now alive with a new body just like his old one. With a smile, the pony said, “I have led you to the truth and in return you have given me life. I will now show you have to save an evil pony.” Pawter Pony gave him the rug and knife that belonged to him. “All of you have served me well.” The unicorn informed.
Chapter 7 The Dark SurvivorsIt was evening. The survivors were in Bucktown, the slaughterhouse more precisely with a guest. They had kidnapped the The Order of Rainbow Moon leader responsible for everything. It’s was their revenge for their suffering. 1 was bound by an intricate web of barbed wire around his nipples and his two hind legs. The rug was placed on the ground in between 1 and a pony hidden in the shadows. The other survivors had surrounded 1 to witness the even in plain sight of the pony tied up by the sharp pronged wire. 1 woke up, groggy and in pain. “What is this? What is going on?” 1 stated. The group said in unison, “We know the past, the present, and the future. When it comes to you 1, or as your real name is Equal Minded we know everything. You were the pony responsible for the resurrection of the dead at the Stones of The Wicked, then you murdered the Dark Doom Gang, you poisoned the ponies of Ponytopia with the madness spell resulting in all of their deaths, and you massacred Bucktown ponies in the slaughterhouse. You are an evil pony. You need to learn how to become a good pony. It means that you have to suffer the consequences from your actions and that your punishment should reflect the wrongdoings you have done.” “You torture me with my own religion!” 1 shouted. “You know nothing of the cause of The Order of Rainbow Moon.” Pawter Pony, the disciple of the rainbow horned unicorn, walked forward with Double Rainbow’s Knife floating in the air using magic and cut off his right nipple, which released tension on one of the bound hooves so 1 could move. Pawter dropped the knife in front of 1. “In order to free yourself, you will have to remove the other nipple yourself.” Pawter stated. The group went from surrounding him to standing on the other side of the rug as a group. 1 cut off the other, which was most painful and had no shortness of blood. The other barbed wire gave away due to the severance of the nipple. 1 stood there, debating what to do. Pawter stated, “I’m sure you remember this pony. When we were suffering, he appeared to us in ghost form to let us know that we would be okay and that we would get our revenge on the evil pony who committed those crimes. In the aftermath, he guided us to the truth. We saved him from death and brought him back to life.” The mysterious pony walked forward, stepping into the candlelight. The white unicorn with a rainbow horn walked forward his hooves clopped against the ground. The unicorn stated, “I’m back.” After a moment, the unicorn added, “I am reborn. No thanks to you.” 1 shouted, “You forsake me!” The rainbow horned unicorn said, “And you betrayed me by raising the Death Alicorn. Regardless of which, it will not undue the evils you have done against ponykind.” Enraged 1 rushed towards the rainbow horned unicorn with the knife and activated the trap by crossing the special rug. The trap activated a barbed wire tripwire. It grasped 1’s rear hooves and pulled him up to the ceiling where a circular blade cut the pony in half from the groin through his head. What a terrible, terrible death, but justice was served. Blood flowed from the corpse. Some of it landed on the white unicorn’s face, much to his delight. He loved it when the blood of evil ponies splattered and dripped on his face, falling down like teardrops unswept away on his cheeks. The rainbow horned unicorn was alive again. The survivors of Ponytopia, the unicorn’s new brood now, had committed a Double Rainbow style trap on the evil pony. Their lesson learned for tonight. The unicorn ordered them to get his knife and rug and to follow him. More evil ponies awaited their punishment.
Chapter 3 The Next StepIt was now morning. At Ponytown, 0 and I were in my throne room, I was sitting on my throne in my lair. Zero, sexually, said flirting with me, “I am here to fulfill all of your every needs.” I, disgusted, stated, “Shouldn’t you be ritually sacrificing yourself to me or something?” I was only interested in Night Wing, not this dumb hermaphrodite. “If that is your will.” It replied. I held my breath and clenched my teeth, marching away, leaving the room upset. Unknown to me, Zero was knocked out and abducted behind me as I left for my bedroom to rest. The Death Alicorn fled to the Pollution Zone. It consists of a polluted lake (Poison Lake) and forest (Junkyard Forest), being the dumping grounds of Manehattan and the rest of Equestria. The Death Alicorn hid and grew in strength. It gained strength from the dying plants and animals from the pollution, devouring their souls in order to heal and grow in power. Night Wing, Night Wish, Forest Savior, and Outback were near Ponytown. Night Wish and Night Wing were going over the plan to bring back Rainbow Heart back. Night Wish showed Night Wing the crystal. Night Wish stated, “Now we have to return Rainbow Moon back into Rainbow Heart. This is not going to be easy. This crystal has the capability to store a pony’s soul. We can use it to extract Double Rainbow’s spirit from Rainbow Moon. That should bring back Rainbow Heart. However, the crystal has to be inside Rainbow Moon’s body for it to absorb Double Rainbow’s Essence. You are going to have to find a way to get it in his body, and you’ll have to do it sneakily and quietly.” Night Wing sneezed. Night Wish looked at him and frowned. Night Wing stated, “Sorry. I still am sick you know.”
