"Come on Nick! We’re going to be late! Come on!" Those were the dreaded words that meant that my sister didn’t forget about that silly convention... Arrgh!! How I hated it. Slowly rising from my comfy bed that at that point seemed like heaven,I looked at her and groaned .
"Do we have to go sis? Cant you just go by yourself? And besides, I don’t even have a costume for this!" I basically pleaded her.
She just twirled around in her Cinderella costume and said: "Well, if you don’t want to go I could always tell our parents about your little incident." That damn little blackmailing troll told me with a smug grin plastered all over her face.
"Okay,okay! I’ll go, but first, wait here." I said, while gritting my teeth. I went over to my closet and put on a red cape, a skeleton t-shirt, and painted some black stripes using a marker.
"And what are you supposed to be Mr. Grumpy?"
She looked at me, still having that little grin.
"I am supposed to be something a little better than ou and your Cinderella costume. I am Darth Krayt."
She began to laugh her ass off.
"What kind of dumb name is that? You know what, I don’t really care! Lets go."
'I hate my life' I thought, as I walked with her to our Dad, who was waiting in our car.
-
"You kids have fun today! And Nick, take care of your sister." My father said, as he dropped us off at the convention and walked away carelessly.
"Will try my best." I said, as I took my sister around the convention, and of course she only went to the boring or/and lame things like Disney princesses and stuff like that. And because of her constant blackmailing, I couldn’t go to the really cool stuff like Star Wars or Lord of the Rings. While we were walking around the convention, I wasn’t surprised that I got a few laughs my way because of my costume’s quality and I am quite sure a few people took a picture of me wearing this poorly made attire. I swore to myself that I would grab any chance to destroy the life of my little sister for embarrasing me like that. Along the way, I was forced by her to go and buy some expensive toys she never will use.
Two hours passed of this routine of me and her walking around, me getting ridiculed by people with better costumes and then going to buy her some toys. I swear it was a miracle that I kept my cool. But the most embarrasing thing was that I had to go to the shops without her so it seemed like a 18 year old was interested in toys for little girls. And this kept going and going, this humiliation. The anger in me kept building and building this whole time. Another hour passed, and this was when my mind began collapsing but came back to reality by an annoying voice.
"....brother buy me those dolls there and those over there too...." and she just wouldn’t stop. I became infuriated and marched off away from her to do something that will give me at least a bit of enjoyment.
I saw it! A Q&A panel of Star Wars. This was perfect, but just as I tried to enter I got stopped by six dudes.
"Well well well, little girl. You can’t come in here. This thing is only for the big boys." the leader of the group said.
"Get out of my way you vermin." I said, grinding my teeth.
"Ooh! The girl has some spirit eh?" One of the henchmen said.
"I will not repeat again. Get out of my way." My patience was cracking.
" And I said this place is not for little girls." The boss said again.
"how unfortunate for you"
my patience was lost.
-
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" The scream of pain and agony could be heard across the park, causing
everyone to shudder.
"What was that?" A guard said to some of his fellow guards.
" I don’t know, but lets check it out, somebody is probably hurt." Both guard rushed to the point of the scream. They ran past many different stands and they found some people running away from the scream. They stopped one of them and began questioning her.
"What happened?"
"Blood, blood everywhere!" she said and fainted.
" What do you think thats was all about?" One of the guards said, and without waiting for the other guards to respond he dashed off to the source. As the two guards saw the scene they were amazed.
Some bloke in a bad costume was beating up six people at once, two of which had already fainted. They watched in awe as he flipped another through the air ond onto his back, twisting his arm so hard that pain shot through the whole guy.
“STOP RIGHT THERE, CRIMINAL SCUM!!" They shouted at the man who was now aware of the presence of the guards. By the second more and more guards arrived, attracted by the screams.
The guy who was beating the others up stood up and as soon as he saw all the guards he ran away. " GET HIM!" the guard shouted. and ran after him.
-
It took Nicholas all of his skills and martial arts training (which was about the only thing he enjoyed next to star wars) to get away form the guards and out of the convention and even then he got a ton of bruises.
"God damn sister always dragging me into hell." He said to himself, while still running away to make sure none of the guards found him. After about five minutes of dashing away at a great speed he found an alley and slipped into it. He found some boxes there and lashed out at them. This was his sisters fault she had dragged him with her, humiliated him and possibly made him a criminal.
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH" he shout at everyone and no one. He was furious at his sister. When he kicked the boxes for the third time he noticed a box made out of black obsidian. He lifted it up carefully and saw something inscripted on it.
For those who seek revenge upon the world this is their tools.
Open this box and your path is set, there will be no turning back.
"What kind of cryptic shit is this?" I muttered to myself. I was just about to cast the box aside but then thought to myself, 'Well, I am most probably a criminal now and my family hates me. probably worth a try.'
I opened the box and inside of it on a purple cushion lay two hilts one beautifully crafted out of a pure and light material, the other one From a dark and ominous.
Slowly I extended my arm towards the hilts and without any warning a dozen white and black tendrils shot out of the hilts and before I knew anything the world went black.
Light, grass and water. Those were the things i noticed as i woke up in a small clearing. “uggh, what the fuck happened.” my memory was blurred i didnt remember much from what happened exept for my sister embarrasing me in front of a whole convention.I slowly stood up. “WHy did i put something so heavy on me?” This time i noticed there was something wrong with my voice. It was darker, scarier and had an air of superiority over it. Shrugging it off i looked around me.
The forest i was currently in was bright green the sky was bright bright blue. The whole world looked like a cheap saturday-morning cartoon. Everything looked so happy, so disguistingly happy. I wanted to burn this all down, but first i needed some shelter some food and some clean water.
‘Well lucky me, a conventionally placed stream of water near me. The place where i woke up had a too little stream. So i trotted over to a place where the stream was big enough for me to get water. Fortunately i found a pond nearby which i could take my arm into and lift some water up. But as i looked into it the gaze that met me was not my usual self. What looked back at me was a grey haired man wearing some nice looking armor and two hilts at his sides.
I couldnt believe, slowly i raised my arm and the figure did the same. I raised the other hand and the figure returned the gesture. ‘mother of god’Were the only thigs in the mind as i realized what i was now. No more was i a puny little human now i was : Darth Krayt.
-some seconds ago in an unspecified but nearby location-
“girls are you sure its a good idea to get our cutie marks in manticore tamers.”
A little white filly tried to reason with her friends.
“ relax sweetiebelle it shall all be fine”
a yellow member of the trio of coloured horses said in the same childish tone as the last one
but with a bit of a country accent.
“Yeah listen to applebloom sweetie”
A pegasus replied.
“i dont really know scoots it seems like an awfully bad idea and beside..”
before Sweetiebelle could finish that sentence everypony heard a cry from somewhere near.
“YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSS”
All of the girls jumped and hid.
“WHat the hay was that? Did somepony just get their cutiemark?” Applebloom shouted and tried to remain silent at the same time.
“Well maybe we should go and ask him or her?” sweetiebelle muttered as she surprisingly was the first one to leave their hiding place. “ Yeah lets go and find out.” the others agreed.
-meanwhile in some other unspecified but nearby place-
‘rrrghhrr who dares to awake my slumber’ The manticore in question thought as he rised from his resting palce. Slowly, after he regained his senses he walked out of the cave shrugging as he saw the light for the first time this day. There, standing not too long from his cavern was a tall pale being covered in some sort of armour and black stripes at his face.’hrrm some show off it seems.’ The manticore came closer and closer sneaking up on the being that was peacefully drinking water from a nearby pond. ‘close enough’ the manticore tought and jumped.
-
Spinning catching the manticore off guard the sith lord drew both of his sabers and slashed the frontal legs and then sliding on the ground and chopping its tail off. Nick was a big star wars fan and knew allot about the powers a sith lord had and he wasnt afraid to use them. in fact he looked forward to it. another quick swipe and his green saber cut off the remaining legs the manticore had, blood coming out of them like a fountain. the manticore screamed in agony but Krayt/Nick wasnt done witht the creature.
After the manticore was nothing but a body whitout any limbs it couldnt do much expet continue to cry in pain and agony. “ oh no motherfucker. You aint getting away from this” I said as i focused on the force and right there i ahd it. “You have attacked someone for the last time” I said in my best palpatine accent while looking on the body of the manticore, slowl pointing my hands at it.
-
The trio was in shock this strange creature had singlehandedly defeated a manticore and was now shooting lightning out of his strange appendages that looked like claws. The girls stared in shock as the taller creature tortured that manticore.
The trio could see the pain in the eyes of the manticore. They all wanted to run or help the manticore but their limbs wouldnt move they were both amazed and terrified. ‘this is so disturbing’ ‘oh my celestia this is so cool’ those thoughts were shared by all the three crusaders but it was safe to say that despite the last thought all of them were scarred for life.
-
I admired my handiwork as i looked down at my prey after having tested powers to a certain degree i can conclude that i indeed am the badass Krayt. I put my boot ontop of the dead manticore and smelled. It seems i had just solved my food problem.
I broke into a mad laugh. I had achieved power!
Some rustling sounds came from a small hedge near me.
I quickly turned around to see three small horses running away from me screaming in horror and shouting something about needing an adult. ‘Well, looks like i am about to get myself a reputation’ i thought.
‘But i must admit i never thought this world had sapient horses. Well, the more you know.
At least it doesnt have my sister.’--
-
“Ah cant believe it! Did you see the look in his eyes while he was torturing that poor manticore.” Applebloom said while running away with ehr fellow crusaders. She didnt dare to stop or look back. They had to get out of the forest as soon as possible. The two other crusaders wanted to agree but neither of tehm could muster up some courage to say it.
They continued to run for about five minutes until they saw a familiar cottage in the the distance.
-
“ Well it was nice being at your house, darling. I would remain a littel longer but i just ahev to get some dresses finsihed.” Rarity said while sipping out the remaining tea in her mug.
“Thats quite alright Rarity. You can stop by whenever you want.. if thats okay.” Fluttershy replied packing away the tea-service.
Suddendly there was a knock on the door and three voices screaming about letting them in and the eventual scream of horror or two.
Rarity hurried to the door and opened the wooden door with her magic. As soon as she did that the cmc stormed in and quickly shut the door behind them . “Girls? What happened?”
Rarity or Fluttershy didnt manage to get an answer before the three flillies fainted. “What do you think that was about , Rarity?”
“I dont know but whatever it is ive got a bad feeling about it.”
-
Krayt was sitting near a campfire he ahd created using lightning, slowly eating away the meat from the manticore’s leg. He was relaxed and happy.
Despite being stranded away in an alien world away from his family and friends he felt strangely happy. It was partially due to him not having any friends and his family wasnt exactly the best and partially due to the fact that he was a Sith lord in this world.
And he allready had a plan, he was going to abuse the heck out of his powers but first, he needed someone who could help him, someone who didnt have any family to look back to, someone who he could be his right hand and continue his legacy after he died.
He needed an apprentice and something told him one of the fillies that saw him could be the perfect candidate.
