Desperation

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Why cant I feel my arm? For that matter, I don't feel much of anything really. Only a faint pressure on my chest. Oh, apparently I had lost my hearing, since I'm starting to actually hear things again. It sounded like crying.. God Damnit. I opened my eyes slowly, only to find out that I didn't need to adjust them to any light. It was pretty dark in here. I looked down at the pressure on my chest, and my heart damn near stopped! Luna had her head resting on my chest, but the worst part was the marks leading down her cheeks indicating that she had been crying recently. But why? Since she was currently using my left arm as a teddy bear, I went to move my right. Only to groan in absolute agony.

I looked to my right, and my vision was obstructed by a rather large boulder. Correction, that boulder looked almost as if it connected into the roof. My arm was stuck underneath the thing, and wouldn't budge. And as if the pain in my arm wasn't enough, it seemed to jumpstart everything else that was wrong with my body. My shoulder and back felt like they were on fire, and my head didn't feel any better, but there was an explanation for that one. Since I had woken up, I had been able to hear Terumi faintly screaming in my head. I couldn't hear him, but it definitely was annoying.

"Damn.." I muttered to myself. My current thoughts were derailed as Luna shifted. Her eyes fluttered open, and a cute yawn escaped her. I couldn't help myself.

"Good morning sleeping beauty." I spoke softly, although my voice was rough from lack of use. It had the desired affect, when a light blush lit up Luna's cheeks, as she got up quickly. In doing so, she nudged me slightly making me grunt in pain. It was only slight, so I wound up laughing it off lightly. Luna looked like she was about to cry again.

"What's wrong Luna?" I asked

"T-thou saved me! Why?" She asked me with slight tears in the edges of her eyes.

"Why? Well, I couldn't very well let my friend get hurt now could I?" I said with a slight smile. That sentence seemed to ignite something in Luna. She looked at me with a new light in her eyes.

"Thou.. Thinks of Us as a friend?" She said quietly, almost like she didn't believe it.

"Yes, I do-" I was interrupted by Luna Jumping on top of me, hugging my with as much strength as she could muster at the moment. Although it wasn't much, it was definitely a little uncomfortable. This was the first time I've been in physical contact with anyone in awhile.

"Thank thou! We will accept your friendship, and give you Ours!" She exclaimed happily, The hug softened up a bit, and she just laid there, breathing contently. I felt rather safe in her embrace, which was a first. My headache was getting worse, Terumi's screaming was getting louder.

"So, how do we get out of here?" I asked. Luna's head simply lifted up, and I could see the happiness in her eyes give way to fear, and sadness. I felt a small tug at my heart when I saw that.

"Our horn was split during the fall, and without it Our magic is almost nonexistent. Without Our magic, We can not signal Our sister for help. We are sorry." She looked down at the ground after realizing she could do nothing to help.

"No! Don't be sorry, you've tried everything you could-" A loud crashing noise, and the trembles in the ground that happened next caused the roof to move slightly. My worries skyrocketed. Without the ability to move, or Luna's magic to aid us, if the roof came down, we would both die.

"Our sister if fighting Sombra. Her magic broke through the runes and she has been fighting him for a while.. She is losing." Luna said sadly.

-----With Celestia-----

Celestia breathed heavily, the magic she had been using was both strong, and overtaxing. She had a few minutes left in this battle at the most. Her opponent looked almost exactly the same as when she started. Smiling the evil smirk as he waited her out. His magic had been stronger than she gave him credit for. Summoning Black crystals to aid him was ingenious. Since crystal was almost indestructible unless given the time to aim. She didn't have that luxury, she had rushed and now paid the price. Her sister was dead, and she could do nothing!

Celestia growled in anger, as her mane caught aflame again, brighter than before. Her eyes taking a small red-hint. Sombra only laughed.

-----With Hazama and Luna-----

"Well then.." I said to myself.

My headache was getting bad, Terumi was really going at it now.

"Do me a favor Luna?" I asked solemnly. Luna looked at me as though to asked me what I was talking about. "If Celestia and you are doing everything you can, then so should I.. Just don't watch, okay?" I said as I reached for my hat, and forcefully pulled it off.

Instantly my Green hair stood up on end, and my eyes opened fully. Power flooded my system, as I felt Terumi take over. I said one thing before I faded to the back of our mind.
"You hurt her, I kill us both.

Terumi only laughed like he normally did when he came out. The power kept pouring out, as he stopped laughing. He kept the grin on his face, as he looked around. He caught sight of Luna and saw the fear and confusion written on her face.

"Finally! I can kill the asshole who put me under a rock!" Terumi said as he jumped up. His arm ripping through the boulder with ease as Green energy coated it. Green snakes made from pure energy wrapped themselves around his arm, to keep mobility in the broken limb. Using said limb, he cocked it back in a punching motion, and blew a hole in the ceiling, where the boulder used to be. "I'm gonna kick your ass across the country!" Terumi raged as he jumped through the hole. Luna looked worried for her new friend, as she jumped out of the hole, using what strength she had left in her magic-less body. She saw a flash of Green and Black near the castle.

-----At the Castle-----

"Your a fool Celestia, pure power alone will never defeat me or the shadows I possess!" Sombra laughed as Celestia fell to the ground in defeat. Her magic depleted, and her will to fight burnt out. She could only sob at the thought of her sister. "You will be glad to know that I will let you and your sister re-unite. Don't worry about the kingdom, I'll take good care of it dear Celestia!" He grinned as he pulled some energy into his horn. The dark energy pooled at the tip of his horn, and he launched the beam of destructive force towards the downed mare.

"What a joke!" Terumi chuckled as he appeared in front of the blast, holding up the arm with the snakes keeping it together. The heads detached in front of his palm, and formed a green ball of energy. In an instant, he threw the ball at the Shadow Blast. The resulting explosion shook the castle. When the smoke died down, Terumi stood there smirking. Sombra was on the other side of the small clearing, blood trickled down a small cut on his eyebrow. He snarled and began charging another blast. Only to lose track of Terumi for a brief moment after seeing a weird chain. A force plowed into his side, and sent hem careening into the castle walls. Terumi stood there twirling his Ouroboros in a circle.

"Hey dumbass! You ready for round two?" He hollered over to Sombra with a glint In his eyes. Sombra walked out of the rubble with a fierce look on his face, a scythe forming next to him out of the dark shadows he was standing in. He quickly dived into the shadow, and re-appeared in Terumi's shadow. However when he swung the scythe at him, it was caught by an open palm. The blade didn't even pierce the skin.

"What?! What the Tartarus are you?!" Sombra called out in agitation. Nothing he tried had worked so far!

"Somebody you shouldn't have fucked with." Terumi stated with a small chuckle. As he laughed, he put a palm to the Shadow Sombra. Abruptly a wave of Green energy shot out, and you could hear Sombra cry out in pain. A blur of Shadow Smoke blew from the wave of energy, and zoomed towards Terumi. It swirled like a drill as it collided with The mad mans chest full force. Nothing moved, as Terumi grabbed Sombra by his Shadowy neck. The green energy still coating his arm was the reason he could hold onto the Living Shadow. The shock of being grabbed and the energy itself, made Sombra revert back to normal. Laughing manically, Terumi threw Sombra into the air. Only to grab the ponies leg with an Ouroboros. He pulled Sombra back down to the ground, slamming him into the dirt full force. Not finished yet, he flipped Sombra not once, not twice but three times into the ground, creating a bigger hole each time. Finishing up, Terumi swung Sombra into the destroyed castle walls again. When the smoke cleared, Terumi noticed that Sombra was knocked unconscious, and was lying in a heap.

"Hmph, what a waste of time!" Terumi said as he approached Sombra. HE grabbed the pony by the cape, and lifted him up into the air. His limp form hanging mid air as Terumi cocked back an arm. The snakes twirled together into a point.

"Stop!" Shouted Luna, as she watched from the sidelines. She couldn't believe what she was watching. Her new friend had just utterly destroyed Sombra in one on one combat, and now he looked as if he was going to end the ponies life. "Hazama! What is wrong with thou?" Luna cried out. This wasn't the soft spoken creature she had come to admire. Terumi looked at her, letting go of Sombra, with something that looked like a demented smile on his face.

"Hazama's gone bitch! The names Yuki Terumi!" He laughed as her confusion melted to a look of shock. Celestia looked up from her position on the ground. She saw the creature now known as Terumi walk towards her sister. She could do nothing as she watched him get within a foot of Luna.

Terumi lifted his hand, and readied the same Green snake spike that he was about to use on Sombra.

"And I don't give a flying fuck that the loser likes you! DIE!" His eyes were wide with excitement, as he thrust his hand towards Luna's chest.

Fuck... you..

Terumi's hand stopped inches from Luna's chest, the spike barely touching her.

"What?" He growled. He put more effort into it, but his hand wouldn't budge, one way or the other.

Fuck you!

The world went fuzzy, and suddenly went Black.

-----Inside the Mind-----

POOW!!

Terumi was sent flying. The area around them stopped swirling as Terumi got up. His smirk waned slightly when he saw the look on Hazama's face. His eyes were open almost fully, and a scowl was etched onto his face.

"You, I'll kill you!" Hazama swore as he rocketed towards Terumi. He used the Ouroboros to appear and disappear at random points around Terumi. Terumi cracked a smile, as he dodged some of the hits, and blocked others. Some however got though, and the damage they did was completely amazing. Blood seeped from his smiling mouth, as he stopped a fist aimed at his cheek.

"Now THIS is a fight!" He laughed crazily as he flipped Hazama over his shoulder, and sucker punched him in the ribs. Hearing a faint crack, he laughed even harder as Hazama was sent flying. He was surprised when Hazama flipped midair and sent an Ouroboros behind Terumi. Launching himself behind Terumi, He continued. When Terumi turned to find Hazama, he couldn't see him. The feeling of something brushing past him caused him alarm, as a power charged elbow smacked him in the back of the head. As he was sent skidding forward, he was subject to a low kick from the front, and then an axe kick from above. It was like Hazama was everywhere at once. But he was just using his Ouroboros to boost his speed.

With a smile, Terumi flicked out an Ouroboros of his own and flew towards Hazama. He collided with Hazama midair, and went to kick him as they fell, but he disappeared. Eyes widening, Terumi looked around for Hazama, until something latched onto his leg. He cursed as he was sent careening to the ground. Even as he landed, spitting up blood from the constant beating, he felt another Ouroboros latch onto his chest this time. Looking up quickly all he saw was Green. An energy Powered punch combined with the force of the Ouroboros speed tore into Terumi's stomach. Hazama leapt up to the top of the hole, angry eyes still burrowing into Terumi's entire being.

"*Cough* The hell did all this come from huh?!" Terumi said, still smirking.

Hazama said nothing, and waited for Terumi to do something, Golden eyes flashed with a power Terumi had never seen from him before.

"Fine.. You win this time. I'll be waiting for our next encounter, keep up the anger!"

As the world started to fizzle away, Hazama growled in anger at Terumi's words. Fist alight with Green energy, and only getting brighter, he jumped at Terumi with vigor.

"I said I was going to kill you!" Hazama screamed as he approached Terumi

Terumi just stared back at him with a devilish smirk on his face, as the world blacked out as the punch connected.

-----Outside-----

Luna watched as Hazama woke back up. It had only been a few minutes since Terumi had fallen backwards and Hazama's hat had re-appeared on his head. As she looked at Hazama she noticed him looking at her, with tears threatening to pool out of his eyes.

"I'm so sorry Luna.." He said softly, all his rage forgotten. Luna gently picked up his head with her wing, and kissed his cheek.

"Don't be, thou saved all of us" She said with a smile
