When The Darkness Ends
Chapter 3: The Party
Previous ChapterNext ChapterA/N: Hello, fellow bronys! Well, here we go! Oh, and if you did read Chap 1, I said Flashback, so I'll try to make sure we get back to the present later in the story, just to make that clear. So here we go.
Chapter 3
I teleported to a tree so I could take in all the information that was given to me at the moment. 'Okay, so I got the powers of the Keyblade, met 6 ponies, TALKING ponies at that, and now I got to another world. The heck is goin' on here? Well, I know my life will NEVER be the same again.' I gave a deep sigh in frustration and drowsiness. "Well, I might as well sing. Nothing I can do now that I am in another world!" So I began to sing the first song that came to mind. His World, by Zebrahead.

I decided to take a break from the song for a while and went to investigate the rest of this town. I figured that if I knew the rest of this town by heart, it would be easier on me. So I decided to set out and go look at this strange place that would be my home in the future for me. As I did so, I decided to sing again. This one was Endless Possibilities, by Crush 40.

Stopping to look at where my singing took me, I looked up to see a huge tree with doors and windows. 'The hell?' I thought. I saw a sign that caught my eye. It had books on it, so I figured it was a library. I gently knocked on the door to see if it was open. "Hello? Anybody here? Hello?" I was startled to see the door creak open slightly. As I regained control of myself, I peeked in to see if there was something inside. All I could gaze upon was a dark room with an eerie silence.
"Heh... just like the movies." I said as I bravely walked in the room, blissfully unaware of the things in it.
"SURPRISE!"I flinched and looked as lights filled my eye so I could see the insides filled with ponies of all kinds. Yellow, blue, purple, red...Damn, how many are there?! I looked at the banner that read, 'Welcome Rikaru!' Then the pink pony from my encounter was wearing a party hat and bouncing to m-. Wait, bouncing? Weird. Anyway, she came to me and said in a slower voice to me than last time.
"HELLO, Rikaru! I just threw you a party! Were you surprised, huh, huh, HUH?!" I chuckled at her excitement.
"Yes Pinkie, I am very shocked. Well, let's PARTY!" I said so all of the ponies could here me. They started to cheer when I said the word "party". They all then started to dance, drink and mingle. They had songs that I really did not like, since I was into Crush 40 and Skillet. I went to the snack and drink table to see what kind of food and drinks she had brought to the party. I was actually quite shocked she had brought wine with her. I didn't know that ponies would drink that stuff. As I looked around this library, I saw a white pony that had an electrifying hair color to it. She also had glasses on her. I decided to ask her if she knew the DJ around here. I was going to play some songs from my world and sing them.
"Excuse me, miss. But I would like to know who the DJ is here."
She smiled at me and said,"I am the DJ here. I'm DJ PON-3. Nice to meet you, Rikaru!" I gave her a... handshake? Hoof shake?
I don't know...
Anyway...
"Nice to meet you, too. Could I use your music equipment to play songs?"
"Of course, dude! Follow me." I did as she requested and followed her to where she was going. "This is where I play the music and that. Say a song and I'll put it on!"
"Oh. Uh.. um, do you know the song 'My Demons'?" I knew she didn't, but I figured I should just say it anyway.
"Er- what's that song? I have never heard of it."
"Well, do you have a machine where I can put a song on it? That way I don't have to make it."
"Sure! That thing is just over there, next to the stereo." She pointed her hoof in the direction, where a control panel thing was next to a large stereo. I walked over there to remember that I don't have my phone with me on this planet they call Equestria.
"Son of a bitch! I don't have it!" I then had an idea. "Wait, if I have super powers.." I walked out so I wouldn't scare anybody.
Once I was outside, I summoned my keyblade and gave it a look. I thrust it into the air and yelled a certain phrase that might help me. "CHAOS..." I started to yell. Green lightning and a green aura surrounded me. I was worried if this wouldn't work, but I have faith. "CONTROL!"
A bright flash enveloped me and then exploded. When it was over, I saw myself in the library, with all of the ponies looking at me in shock. My keyblade, however, was acting strange. It was shaking violently. "What the- what's happening!?" It then started to tug at me. It pulled so much that it was starting to get out of hand. "AAAHGH! What's going on?!" I yelled when it pulled me outside. It started to do many random spells while spinning at high speeds. It used Thunder and zapped a tree a tree, which then went in flames. The keyblade then started to cackle lightning and made a bright flash. When it was done, it laid completely still with a small device I needed in the first place. I picked up my key-like sword and my phone. "Well, at least I have my phone now. Better go inside so I can put the music on it now." As I turned around, I was hit in the face with a cyan hoof, and I think I know who's hoof that was. I looked to where it came from and saw a familiar blue face in front of me.

"Wait, Rainbow Dash! We made a truce!"
"You think you can fool me with all of your lies, the great Rainbow Dash? HA! I know I can beat you!"
"I don't want to fight an ally, but I will if you attack me!" Well, I was hoping that that would work with her. Apparently, she isn't one to listen to reason. Instead of listening to me, she flew toward me in such speed that I barely had time to block her frontal attack. I raised my keyblade to block her when she came at me. She hit the sword instead of me and recoiled in pain and surprise.
"OOWWW! That hurt! I'll get you for that!" I gave her a growl and a glare.
"SO BE IT!" I took my cloak off and threw it to the side to reveal my black pants, dark boots, and a scarred chest from a fight I had on Earth. I ran at her with the tip of my keyblade behind me. When I got to her, I raised my sword in a diagonal angle so I could slice upward. She evaded and came behind me to attack. She struck hard and I fell to the ground with a loud 'thump'.
"Heh, had enough, chump?" She taunted.
I just smirked and said, "Well, at least I'm strong enough that I don't need other ponies to come and protect me." I heard the other ponies around us cheer for me and make 'ooh' sounds at Rainbow.
"What are you talkin' about!? I can fight you by myself!"
"Then how come I kicked your cyan ass when you fought me yesterday?" I laughed at her as she blushed and snorted her nose. I could tell she was getting infuriated at me. Mostly because of all the others laughing at her.
"You little..!" She started to charge me again, so I decided to counter with Blizzard.
"DEEP FREEZE!" I chanted as I pointed my keyblade at her and a icy cold aura formed at the tip of my keyblade. It shot out, and I was about to hit her, but it had missed her again. A purple beam wall stopped our brawl. I looked to my left to see the purple unicorn Twilight. She, too, had an angry face, but it was directed at her friend rather than at me.
(Stop Music)
"Rainbow Dash! He is our friend, not our foe!"
"He said 'Chaos Control'! I thought he was using chaos to hurt everypony!"
"Chaos Control allows me to teleport! It's not dangerous, ya know!"
Twilight walked to me and said in a soothing voice, "Sorry about Rainbow, she can be a bother!"
"No problemo! Let's go inside to the party, shall we? But first..." I turned to the cyan mare that was glaring at me and I gave her my hand. She looked at me hesitantly and took her hoof in it. I raised her up and gave her a smile, which she returned.
"I'm sorry for attacking you, Rikaru..." She said, turning her head away from me.
"It's alright, Rainbow. Let's call it a truce." We shook on it and went back to the party. The party continued without any more trouble.
"Alright, Vinyl. It's ready to go!" I said to the pony. She decided to tell me her real name if I promised to keep it a secret.
"Great, Rikaru! Hit it!" I pushed the button to start the song 'My Demons', by Starset. Meanwhile, Vinyl announced that I was ready to sing the song. "Sup, everypony! Rikaru will sing a song to all of you! Watch him sing My Demons! Hit it!"
I grabbed the mic and jumped to the ceiling before anypony could see me. Then I began singing.
(Play My Demons by Starset. Stop reading and listen. Stop song when songs is over. Then, continue Reading. Note: Rikaru jumps down from the ceiling once the line 'But they don't know the feeling' is sung.)
As I finished the song, they all started to cheer and clap their hooves at my performance. As I got down and went to the table to get refreshments, a brown pony walked up to me. He didn't have wings or a horn, so I'll just call those types Earth ponies.
Sounds right...
Anyway...
"Hey, Rikaru. Name's Breache." I shook his hoof, his white mane coming over his face. I then noticed that he had a tattoo on his flank. It was a shield with an explosion on it.
"Hey, Breache. Why do you got that picture on your flank?"
"It's my cutie mark. It represents my special talent. Everypony get's it when they find what they're good at. Mine represents being able to destroy any defense in battle."
"So it just appears or..."
"Yeah."
"Oh... I was wondering if it's just tattooed or what."
"Tattoo? What's that?"
"Something from my world. Well, why don't you show me your skills in a battle, Breache?" He grew a cocky smirk.
"If you want to lose..."
"Bring it on, boy." We went out to the front of the tree to fight. The crowd was all around us, cheering for Breache. This only made me more determined to win. "LET'S GO!" I yelled, charging him.
