Sombra Vs. Jason
Love Has Its Limits
Previous ChapterNext ChapterSombra grabbed the wall next to him, holding his side to stop the bleeding from the slashes Jason's machete had left in him. To take four stabs and survive through the amount of blood he had lost is shocking to the dark stallion. Sombra coughed and tried to pull himself up. He used what strength he had and lifted himself off the wall. The king stood up straight and took in a deep breathe. He lifted his hand way from his stomach and saw the four large dark red gashes. Blood trickled down his armor and down his fingers. Sombra growled in pain as he tried to walk forward. Fed up with the pain, Sombra concentrated and his horn lit up with a red light. He looked toward his hand and the light moved toward his palm in a sphere shape. Sombra swiftly put the sphere on his wounds and he groaned in pain as the gashes closed under his armor. Sombra screamed in pain as blood evaporated off his body and turned into black smoke. He gasped and he leaned on his back, breathing heavily. The king opened his eyes and saw he was under the same place he was last time. Under the Crystal Empire somewhere. But this time it was different. The walls were covered in strange colored drawings that looked like a school child did it. He saw himself, and then he saw Jason. They were fighting in the same dream scape they first fought in. The king moved his head with the pictures. They proceeded to show everything that happened since Jason had been pulled into Equestria. Sombra then saw Jason was facing that damned Princess Cadence. He laughed at the thought of her being killed by the revenant.
"Finally." he laughed.
Sombra then turned his head and saw something strange. Nothing was next. Like the story was still in development. Sombra narrowed his eyes and growled. He then heard a soft, yet eerie voice behind him.
"Are you Jason's freind?"
Sombra turned and saw a little filly standing behind him, holding a stuffed bear in her arms. She had black hair with a red bow on her head. Her fur was white and her eyes were colored the same as her bow. She had a small on her face. Sombra growled and faced away from her.
"Be gone child! I have no time for you." he said with a growl.
The child simply laughed and ran up next to Sombra. She looked at the wall with the king and cocked her head. The king saw this in the corner of his eye and turned toward her with a confused look.
"Jason is the bravest boy I know! Even though he isn't normal like most people, he has a big heart!" she said. Sprouting her arms high above her with a wide grin.
Sombra found himself scooting away from the child, she copied him. The king growled and looked at her.
"Why are you here anyway!?" he growled.
The girl pushed back Sombra's nose and laughed. The king raised an eye brow.
"I came here to find Jason so we can be friends again." she said.
Sombra looked back to the wall. A new design was there but it was far to the right of any of the other pictures. It was unmasked Jason holding the filly in his arms. Sombra's eyes went wide and quickly turned toward the filly but found that she was gone. Sombra looked around everywhere and saw nothing but the stuffed bear next to him. He gave a shocked look at who, or what he just talked with. A spirit? That was the only thing Sombra thought of as he gazed at the wall in front of him and looking at the picture of his foe hugging the child. Was this wall some sort of timeline? If that was the case, then that event with Cadence and Jason should be happening right now. The king then saw colors forming on the wall. The lines were slowly being drawn with small children laughing around him. The picture finished, it was of Jason and Cadence in a battle pose.
Sombra found himself staring in shock at the sight. That only met one thing. He was right under the battle.
Cadence glided down a street of the Crystal Empires town. With a sword held firmly in her hand, she stopped herself on landed on her hooves. Jason was hot on her trail. Knocking down guards from left and right. Their blood acting as paint and the pavement of the streets was the canvas and Jason's machete was the brush. The wolf man was sprint walking toward the princess with an agenda to kill her. She is working with Sombra, Jason was sure of it. She brought him here so Sombra could kill him. Well, that agenda wouldn't be completed this day. The revenant would make sure if that.
Cadence prepared herself as Jason raised his machete over his head. He strikes but is blocked by the princess sword. The two stare each other down for a moment before Cadence kicked the wolf man in the stomach. Jason reeled back from the attack, the princess took the chance and used her wings to fly in the air and began spinning with her legs out, kicking Jason in his mask until he fell on his back. Cadence landed on her hooves and stared as Jason quickly got up as though it didn't hurt him at all. Cadence groaned in annoyance.
"Why...wont...you...stay...down?" she huffed.
Jason walked toward the princess with an angry energy surrounding him. Cadence would be lying is she said she wasn't on edge right now. The wolf man was far more powerful then she anticipated. His strength was unbelievable and his endurance could rival a dragons. Jason was no push over. When she hit him, he hit her back. It was back and forth between the two for nearly an hour. Cadence wiped away sweat from her forehead and rotated her arm until she heard a small pop from her shoulder. Her dress was ripped and torn with small scraps and bruises on her arms and legs. Jason was barely battle damaged. Only his jacket had a few cuts in it. It was obvious who was winning in this situation.
Cadence charged with her sword at her side. The revenant just stood there and his machete slightly raised, pointing toward the princess. Cadence leaped in the air with her sword raised over her head the blade facing Jason. The wolf man lifted his machete to his chest with the sharp end facing Cadences chest. Time slowed down as both the blades came closer to their destinations.
"STOP!"
Jason snapped his head to his right and was met with little and big eyes staring at him. Under his mask, his eyes were wide with shock as he stared into the crusaders eyes. His vision was snapped back to Cadence as he could feel her sword pierce his heart and came out of his back. Blood spewed out like leaking pipe. Jason's hearing was cut and all he could see were the screaming and crying faces of the crusaders as he fell to the ground, dead. Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash were keeping the crusaders away from the corpse, Twilight walked up to Cadence as she took the sword out of Jason's chest. A puddle of blood forming under Jason.
"Cadence...I'm..."
Her sister in law put a hand to Twilights shoulder and gave her a warm look.
"Twilight...its fine. It had to be done, even of you and your friends came."
The two looked toward the crying crusaders in their sisters arms. It was an un bearable sight. A deep laughter was then heard from the shadows of the town. Every one looked around in fear as black clouds formed around them. Cadence eyes grew wide with fear as she knew these clouds all to well. A dark grey face formed in the cloud and soon green and purple eyes formed as well.
"No...It...cant be!"
Sombra laughed manically as he looked down on the ponies in front of him.
"You idiots did it! You finally killed that bastard!"
All the ponies looked at Jason's corpse. Apple Bloom broke away from her sisters chest and looked up at Sombra.
"But...Jason cant die!"
Sombra simply laughed.
"Your so naïve child. Jason's immortality can only help him with minor injuries...not death."
Apple Blooms face melted into sadness and fell to her knees, sobbing. Cadence gritted her teeth.
"Sombra! Your the reason Jason in here!?"
Sombra formed himself into his figure and stood at his full height. A wide evil grin staring at them all.
"Of course, but however he came here to kill me after I tried to take control of him. But thanks to you fools, I wont have to worry now."
The stallion then disappeared into a black cloud and into the shadows of the town. Everypony stared in shock at what they just saw, the sound of the crusaders crying was the only thing that could be heard.
