Grimoire of Equestria

"Hello, How are you today?" I asked politely. Princess Celestia just looked at me with that deadpan look, as she glanced around looking at all the ponies running away in fear. A slight glow illuminated her horn as she addressed me.

"Who are you? And what is that despicable energy coming from you?" She almost spat in anger. Maybe I shouldn't have left her that book tells you how Black magic can be used for all kinds of deadly things- Wait, what? Then it hit me, And I had to restrain myself from crying out in frustration and face palming at the same time. I never stopped the energy flow from my time with Luna. I've been leaking a fair amount of Green and Black energy this entire time. No wonder that poor mare ran away screaming!

I hold in my anger at myself, and let a small fake smirk attach itself to my face, as I lower the energy to a smaller scale. Not quite stopping it entirely, since I might need it in the near future..

"My apologies , lots of thing on my mind and all that. I must not have noticed, as I've been busy looking around your world."I must have said something wrong, or she didn't like me keeping the energy around. Since her horn lit up rather brightly.

"Do not toy with me Monster! Tell me what you were doing within my castle walls!" She snarled. Jeeze, I see where Luna can get her anger from sometimes. Speaking of which..

"I feared something was wrong with your sister, and I went to check-"

I was cut off as a beam of golden energy careened after me. A quick sidestep to the right with help from a quick Ouroboros and I was safe and sound. The beam had torn a trench into the ground, narrowly missing a few houses. A slight frown appeared on my face. She wasn't going to listen to my lies, let alone believe them.. Fine.. A small smile forms yet again, as a motion away from the town.

"Lets leave your town out of this, shall we?" I say as I latch an Ouroboros to a cloud. Did I mention those things were solid in this world? I flew into the air as fast as I could without losing track of where I was. I now understand just how fast Celestia is. She flew 10 meters behind me even though I was flying through the air faster than most would blink. A slight bump in my plans, no big deal. I quickly latch another Ouroboros onto the ground about 300 yards away from the town. We landed with a massive dust cloud erupting around us. When the dust cleared I stood with one hand in my pocket, and the other out opening and closing reflexively. Celestia stood about 20 feet away in a crouch, with her horn lit up and her wings spread from the previous flight.

"You sure you wanna do this?" I could feel my body shaking slightly from both fear and anticipation. Celestia didn't answer and just glared a hole into my skull.

"Fine.. Jabaki!" I whisper under my breath. I swing my hand upwards and a blast of Green swirling energy in the shape of a snake head shoots towards Celestia. Her eyes widen and she throws up a shield in an attempt to stop it. The snake head bounces of her shield but leaves a crack. It careens into the woods where a small explosion is heard. Celestia glares at me even harder when I return to my earlier fighting pose. My smirk returning full force. I wasn't actually expecting that to work as well as it did. I didn't have mush time to be happy as Celestia fired a series of Golden beams from the tip of her horn, while jumping into the air. She hover into the air as I Dodge and duck away from her beams of destruction, as they tear up the land I used to stand on. Jumping into the air with only one hand, I bring the other one out to counterbalance for my next trick.

"Hirentotsu" The Green snake head re-appears only to be shot downwards as I kick backwards at Celestia, who mistakenly let me too close. Probably thought I wouldn't attack at such a close range. The attack rips through her hastily put up shield, and I whirlwind her with the force of my kick, sending her soaring to the ground. A plume of smoke rises from the small crater as I land about 20 feet away. I feel her magic levels dropping slightly. As the dust clears I see her breathing slightly heavy with small cuts across her barrel where my kick landed. The cuts where actually healing at a remarkable rate. It seemed she could heal using her magic as a catalyst. I'd have to look into that, and see if I could replicate that effect. A few more lasers shot at me but nothing was too hard to dodge, until Celestia threw something new into the mix. She started summoning swords into mid-air, holding them up in her telekinesis. They're were currently about 10 swords surrounding me, all twirling in a slight circle. The light shining off of them was blinding. Then there was the fire. Sudden bouts off fire erupted from the ground around me, burning the very edges of my flowing coat. Goddess of the Sun indeed, she wasn't pulling her punches now. I dodged a sword from the left, and ducked a small gout of fire aimed at my stomach. Side stepping a golden laser, I realized this fight was getting too long and dangerous. The town behind us was getting dangerously close to being destroyed by a stray blast from Celestia, she seemed far to concerned with me than she was the safety of her people, and even her sister. Jumping back to avoid another flurry of swords stabbing into the ground, I used my Ouroboros to close the gap immediately. Charging my energy through my fist, I break through her shield once again. In a flurry of movement I focused my energy to my foot once again.

"Jayoku Hotenjin!" I call out as I kick Celestia into the air and followed her into the air. With the aid of my Ouroboros I rocketed around Celestia using empowered strikes to cause massive damage at multiple angles in an instant. I had just used one of my more deadly attacks. My insane sounding laughter rang through the air as I wailed on Celestia for a full 10 seconds. I landed in my battle stance a few feet away from her as she crashed to the ground. She lay there in a heap, shallow breathing and eyes shut in pain.

"This didn't need to happen, your own decisions will be your undoing one day." I state as I start to walk away from her. I could feel her magic levels dropping to low levels, she was in no shape to continue. I used my Ouroboros to disappear into the woods nearby. But before I disappeared completely I called out to her one last time, in a serious demeanor.

"You should watch who you make as enemies.. You'll turn all your allies against you and have nobody to help when you need it."

--------- Line Break----------

I was a fool!

SMACK

I punched a tree in fury, as a scowl made its way onto my face.

I got too into the fight! I got too excited to see my own powers at work, that I didn't see that she wasn't seriously fighting me the entire time.. Her eyes were always watching me, always analyzing, scrutinizing my attacks. Should we ever fight again, she'll have a plan to fight back. I'll have to fight back on equal footing next time. No holding back.

"You are a fool."

"W-who said that?!" My eyes opening in a frantic search

-------Line Break--------

Celestia sat up and shook her head. Her magic had taken care of the major wounds, but she had severely underestimated the strange creature. I was clearly sentient, by all its ramblings it had done during the fight. It was also extremely powerful. She only got a glimpse of the creatures true power at the end of the fight, when it wanted to end the fight. Its speed was amazing, and its dexterity was akin to dancing. She would need to think on this defeat, and find a way to suppress that ominous energy it kept releasing during the fight. It wasn't Dark Magic, so she couldn't just put up an anti-magic barrier, but it had qualities of Natural Magic, the energy that made up the majority of Equis, their planet. Maybe a barrier to cut off that magic would weaken him? At least enough for her and Luna to take it down with the Elements if needed.

"Luna!" She cried as she flew into the air as fast as she could. She got to Hospital Ward in the castle in record time. Opening the door, she saw her sister sitting on a bed, with a downcast expression.

"I'm so glad your okay!" She cried in joy, running over and nuzzling her sister. Luna nuzzled back.

"Thou hast dealt with the intruder, dear sister?" She asked with a forlorn look on her face.

"Yes, he wont be bothering you again." Celestia gently told her sister. Luna gently shook her head.

"We do not think he was here to cause harm, We think he was here to give Us a message. One that was hidden in words most foul." Luna said with a look of uncertainty.

"What do you mean?" Asked Celestia.
