Is all Hope Lost?
This is War!
Previous ChapterNext ChapterPoor Spike cowered in fear behind Zecora, knowing that if he gets captured by Roseblood again, he would get a punishment worse than anything he would have. "Now, give me back Spike, or you will all die." the evil mare threatened the good guys. "Now!"
"No!" said Discord. "And let you traumatize Spike even more? I think not!"
"You may have taken Spike before, but you will not traumatize him even further!" Zecora added. "I'm pretty sure he would rather die than be under your so-called care again!" Everyone in the army behind her and the leaders shouted and bellowed loudly.
"Nonsense." said Roseblood. "Of course Spike wants to be with me. He just does not realize it just yet."
"You'll just torture me and- and- maybe turn me blind." Spike said in a scared voice.
The evil mare let out a chuckle. "Don't be so ridiculous, Spikey-Whikey. I would never even dream of gouging your eyes out or killing you for leaving with Discord. Well, maybe I would give you some kind of punishment for coming with him. As for the rest of you! If the rhinos, Zebrican buffalo, bison, dragons, griffons, and the others creatures in your so-called army come over to me and put themselves at my mercy, I will let them all live."
Imari, Spiral, and the other leaders didn't look very convinced. "What do you plan to do with us?" said Conok with his arms crossed.
"Well, the griffons will be put in the gigantic cage aviary in Canterlot for display, the dragons will be put in cages, the hippogriffs will have the same fate as the griffons, the rhinos after me and my army saw their horns off, will be put into labor and slavery such as; drawing carts and coaches, and pulling quarried stones for building monuments of yours truly.
"And what about the others?" asked Discord sarcastically.
"The buffalo will be my slaves too, the animals will go to my own personal zoo in the castle gardens, the ponies, after i saw their horns and or wings off, will ne made as slaves, too. As for the minotaurs, they will be put in my army with mind-controlled helmets, after their horns are sawed off as well."
"And what about us?"
"You changelings will all be made in a circus performing shapeshifting abilities to keep my subjects happy as free labor, and the kudu will face the same fate as the elands will. However, Spike, Zecora, and he who was Discord, will be taken alive."
"Why me?"
"I would just like a little... conversation with you, Zecora. Girl to girl." She looked at the drancequus with a sly smirk. :as for you, you insufferable head pain," she said to him. "You are way too much trouble for me, so, I have decided that you will spend the rest of eternity back as a statue."
Discord simply growled and said: Good luck with that!"
Just all of you surrender." The evil queen said.
"Never!" Said Imari. "We would all rather die!"
"Yeah! We prefer if you come over to us and try to take us all down!" Ember shouted.
"Yeah, We will never surrender to you!" Thorax said. "And it's like what Imari said; we would all rather die!"
A loud sound of cheering and shouting was heard from the army behind them. "Hmph. So be it." Said Roseblood flatly. She looked back at her own huge army, and Roseblood barked: "kill all the animals and creatures in that faction! But take Spike, Discord, and zecora alive!!!"
And then, the battle of Equestria had begun. Both sides were charging at one another while yelling in a war cry.
Rights for the Song go to Dragonforce

As soon as they clashed, it was so new and interesting. Sounds of swords, axes, punching and kicking sounds, and sounds of dying screams were heard here and there.
the side where Spike, Spiral, Imari, Thorax, and the other creatures on that end were fighting very well and the training they were doing was paying off.
A diamond dog was decapitated by a minotaur's sword, a Klugetowner that looked like a large crocodile was gored in the belly by an eland's horns, killing it instantly, and six demons being zapped by a changeling's magic from his horn.
Ten guards were run over by a small group of both white and black rhinos, like a bunch of bowling pins.
Of course, the side of good did not go unscathed either. One stallion was bit by the throat by one of the demons, and a zebra was bludgeoned in the head by Applejack.
Even a few of the dragons were killed by the largest demons while fighting in the sky. For Spike, this battle was so much for him to take in, and his heart began beating faster than a rattlesnake rattling it's tail to and fro.
For the corrupted elements of harmony, they were one of the best fighters in this battle, not so much as struggling or sweating in trying to kill everypony they loved under Roseblood's spell.
Even a few dragons were taking some casualties on both sides. Four dragons were killed in the fight, and one of Garble's friends was killed, too.
Poor Spike was simply unfazed by how all this fighting was happening around him, and tried to look for a shelter from all of this fighting.
While searching, he was seeing many things going on right now. One was an eland being killed by a Diamomd Dog, and a rabbit's neck was broken by Chrysalis and her own magic.
There were so many styles of fighting in this battle and it was difficult to see who was winning or losing in this fight. Zecora was the one who was guarding Spike and keeping him safe from any damage and it was not easy.
Since Roseblood ordered her soldiers to take aspike back alive, he could not get a minute's worth of break since they were all after him like an angry mod.
"Stay close!" Said Zecora. "I will defend you from any abductors or any foes." Said Zecora.
To the northeast of where she and the baby dragon were, Garble was swooping down on him like a missile or an arrow related from a hunter's bow. "The party's over for you, runt!" He shouted.
Conok saw this and punch Garble in the face and then the stomach, knocking him unconscious. "Come on! We need to get you to a safe place!"
"Lead the way, Conok!"
The two followed the Zebrican minotaur to a small underground cave for him to hide and take shelter in and hopefully, stay out of sight from Roseblood and her followers.
"No matter what happens Spike, stay down." said Imari. "Don't worry, you will be alright. Do not let Roseblood find you here, it's you that she wants."
"I know. Be careful, guys!"
As the baby dragon quietly hid in the small caves Roseblood was zapping her horn at many enemies on her way, including some changelings or dragons.
Speaking of changelings, Thorax and Pharynx were disguised as brainwashed ponies in order to get close to the enemy soldiers and knock them back.
"ooh! This was a very good idea, little brother." Pharynx commanded to the nee changeling king.
"There you traitors are!" said Chrysalis, charging in on them. "Now it is time for my revenge and reclaim my title as the changeling queen!"
"You may have a powerful and evil mare like Roseblood, does not mean you can beat us all!" Thorax shouted. "Have you not seen our soldiers?"
He then pushed her with his body, knocking her into the dirt like a domino. Chrydalis was gritting her teeth in pain and tried to get back up, but she was being kicked by the two brothers.
Finally, she used the magic from her own horn to knock them both back. Whole flying, one of the minotaurs punched Thorax, and another one of Iron Will's friends punched Pharynx in the face like bowling balls had hit their faces.
Despite how hard they hit, the changeling brothers were quicker than these tough brutes, and turned into ursa minor bears to fight them head-on.
Pharynx was swiping his claws at his own opponent and dealing with a few punches bu the British minotaur, but still, Pharynx was tough as nails, and he would not hack down for anything. For Thorax, he was fighting almost as equally as his big brother right, and slapped his enemy with one swipe of his big, meaty bear paw.
The blow was so strong, that it knocked down the minotaur like a pillar broken down with a very loud thud as if an earthquake erupted.
"Whoo! Nice kick!" Said Pharynx.
"Thanks bro." Thorax replied. "Look out!"
His brother dodged a punch from this meathead and gouged his eyes with his claws before kicking it in the groin. Both of these minotaurs were down and the two changelings moved on to fight more enemies.
Savimbi was kicking and kicking at many demons and diamond dogs charging at him, and he was fighting so well, along with other zebras with him.
About twenty of these demons and diamond dogs fell dead on the ground, and only two zebras were killed in this skirmish.
One pony-like demon charged and punched him in the face two times at king Savimbi, but the zebra head-butted his opponent, and stabbed him with a spear.
For the ponies like Lyra and Bon Bon and Cloudchaser and Flitter, etc, they were all trying so hard to not kill their own brainwashed friends or any other brainwashed ponies on the side of Roseblood.
Chrysalis was still looking to kill off Thorax and Pharynx so she would not have any trouble in reclaiming the throne over the Changeling Kingdom. She was planning to kill off all the other changelings that were with these two for their treachery, and make them pay for abandoning their queen before.
Still, she wanted to deal with those two first, the two ones whom she deemed as the first traitors first.
Rover, Spot, and Fido, being cowards as they were, were hiding behind a gigantic rock so they would not get hurt in the slightest way.
"Eesh! Look at it over there!" Said Rover. "It is all hell breaking loose!"
"I ain't goin' out there until this is all over!" Spot added.
"Come on, look at how many of our enemies are falling." Said Fido. "And look at our troops fighting off the enemy."
"But our own troops are falling, too!" Said Rover. "Whoop! There goes another one of the demons."
"You know what, you guys are right. We should just wait here until this is all over, or at least, if queen Roseblood tells us otherwise." Fido gave in.
Garble and his friends were having interesting fights in the sky with some dragons, griffons, hippogriffs, pegasus ponies, and other flying creatures.
Gilda was slashing at Garble's goons with her claws from her talons. "How do you like that, you Boneheads?!" She shouted.
Not only that, but Ember was fighting along with her, and breathing fire at any flying demons with wings, making them fall dead on the ground like bugs after being electrocuted with a bug zapper.
"Ha! You will all have to do much better than that if you want to take me down!" Shouted Ember in triumph.
The largest dragons really had no trouble in fighting their own enemies, for they were like little insects or flies when it comes to winged foes.
Still, under strict orders of Ember, they were told not to kill any ponies for they were suffering in the inside, and needed to break free from this horrible spell.
To the other dragons, it sounded like a mildly hard thing to do, but still, they will follow the new Dragon Lord and her new rules. While the largest dragons had no problem with their enemies, they had a little bit of a challenge when it came to Roseblood herself.
Her magic was a little painful to them, maybe because she was more powerful than any allicorn or unicorn with her own powerful magic (due to the fact that she was building up her powers while locked away in hell for a long time).
Despite how powerful than some of the larger dragons, she was a little afraid due to their intimidating appearance and even she was no match for a gigantic breath of fire from them, and she was trying to be as careful as possible.
Iron Will was fighting with a black rhino head-on, and he was punching it in the nose, but the rhino was faster and gored him with his horns knocking him in the ground.
As soon as he was getting back on his feet, Conok approached him from behind in an attempt to stab him, but Iron Will blocked it with a sword of his own.
Both of these minotaurs inflicted heavy strikes. Sounds of metal hitting one another was heard over and over again. Iron will inflicted a powerful uppercut kick on Conok, and tried to hit him again, but the Zebrican dodged to the right and delivered one punch on his stomach. Another on on the left side of his face, and a powerful kick in the center of Iron Will's face.
More sounds of steel clashing were heard between these two minotaurs, and they even tried to push one another with their blades, growling at one another while gritting their teeth.
"Call yourself a minotaur?" Said Conok. "You are nothing but a conniving con artist!" He then head-butted the blue minotaur with his immense strength.
"I am too a minotaur, bucko!" Said Iron Will. "I'm a better fighter than you are!"
"No! I have more years of combat practice than you have, you shyster!"
Conok eventually had the upper hand in this fight and did a horizontal slice at hik with his sword, knocking Irom will out cold.
When it came to blasting their enemies, Nightmare Moon and Daybreaker certainly had a blast in it. Literally and figuratively.
The two corrupted sisters were blasting away at their enemies while laughing maniacally and sadistically. "Ooh this is fun!" Said Daybreaker.
"Agreed." Nightmare Moon replied in sheer joy. "I cannot believe that we did not transform at the same time. This is so wonferful!"
"And to think I would never be like you, sister. I love being evil!"
Princess Cadence was blasting away at her opponents coming at her and Shining armor was punching and kicking at his enemies that were trying to fight him.
Sure, still just a baby perhaps, but Flurry Heart was letting out explosions of magic from her body like an electric charge and she was giggling evilly while doing so. "Yaay!" she shouted while clapping her hooves.
The corrupted elements of harmony, and Starlight Glimmer were probably fighting the best out out of all the brainwashed ponies out in the battlefield. Discord was so afraid of fighting Fluttershy, but only because he didn't want to hurt or kill the best friend her ever made in his entire life.
Still, he had to subdue her somehow without hurting her so much or ending her life. How he would do it? It would be very hard to do, and he did not know how, but he knew he had to so something fast before this really gets out of hand. Discord knew that just reasoning with her wouldn't actually work and he would have to do something else.
Imari and Spiral were still fighting side by side and goring and kicking as much enemies that were trying to fight them both as they never left one another. "Nice kick, my old friend." Spiral admired the eland king.
"Oh, you are far better at that skill than I am." Imari admitted. He saw a small band of demons charged at him and his friend and he charged at them back in full speed, knocking them all down like a bunch of dominoes or bowling pins. A few of them were gored to death by his horns, and Spiral did the same thing his friend did.
"And you were always a better charger than I am, Imari." Spiral remarked.
While the fighting still raged on, Spike was still hiding in the small divot that Zecora escorted him in and hoped this will all end soon. All of a sudden, something appeared next to him, and Roseblood had his sights set on him again. "There you are, sweetie." she said.
The baby dragon tried running away, but he was caught in her magic, and put under a sleeping spell, and he was captured by her once again, and things would not go well for him when he wakes up the next time he is back in the castle with this vile, diabolical mare.
