The Price To Pay For Power
Duel Between Brothers
Previous ChapterNext ChapterTravis rose from his throne and said to Connor, "You showed up." Unknown to Connor however, he cast a spell that allowed the whole world to see the brotherly reunion.
Connor walked around in a cocky demeanor twirling Ivory and said, "You sure know how to throw a party. No food, no drinks, and my opponents were too easy."
"My sincerest apologies brother, I was so eager to see you I... Couldn't concentrate on preparations for the bash.", said Travis.
Connor snarked, "Whatever. At any rate, it's been a whole year since we last met. How about a kiss from your little brother?" He then points Ivory at Travis and exclaims, "Or better yet, how about a kiss from THIS?" Connor and Travis stared at each other with hidden intent until Connor broke the silence, "So... This is what they call a heartwarming family reunion huh?"
Travis held out his humongous sword and replied, "You got that right."
Travis then dashed towards Connor with his sword but Connor drawn Yamato and countered the blow. When Connor countered the blow, he also punched Travis in the face causing his helmet to fly off and break out the window behind the throne. Travis then took out his revolver and fired several rounds towards Connor but Connor twirled his blade and lined up Travis's bullets in a straight line to sling them back at Travis. Travis used his sword to cut the bullets in half and proceeded to rush towards Connor and sliced him in the chest but Connor's wound immediately healed with the only real damage happening to his clothes. Connor then dashed past Travis with his blade drawn and several slash movements indicating that Connor slashed Travis several times before getting behind him. When Connor sheathed his blade, Travis sustained several slash wounds that penetrated and ruined his armor.

Travis faced Connor to laugh and said, "Very good, you're stronger than ever. Perhaps now you deserve to know the truth."
Connor looked at Travis with confusion and asked, "The truth about what?"
Travis smirked evilly and answered, "The death of your girlfriend Maria."
Connor grew furious and shouted, "Don't you dare talk about Maria!"
Travis laughed and mocked, "Oh come on brother, surely you of all people would want to know the truth right. I'm giving you the opportunity of a lifetime and you want me to stay quiet? What kind of brother would I be if I didn't tell you about this?"
Connor relented and grumbled, "Fine, what do you know?"
Travis had an evil smirk and said, "I was the one who ordered the thug to kill her so I was the one responsible the whole time."
Connor began to cry and asked, "How could you? Maria didn't do anything to you! Why?"
Travis laughed and ranted, "I'm so glad you asked. You see our dear mother and father had a life insurance policy on their heads ever since they inherited our family fortune just one year and four months before Maria died. You see, the terms on our parents insurance said that the entire fortune would go to their next of kin or whoever they chose to give the money to and our parents chose you. I tried to convince them to give the fortune to me one month before Maria's death but they refused saying that they were expecting a grandchild. I didn't understand it at first but then I realized that your damned girlfriend was carrying your child and if I was to get that fortune, I was going to have to get her out of the picture. It was then that I decided to hire some peabrained thug to take her out and I thought you would commit suicide because of this but that damn Jax convinced you to live. I thought of using the thug to kill our dear mother and father to finally get the fortune but no, you just had to kill my little puppet didn't you. So then I finally decided to do the dirty work myself and destroy all of the evidence but that old man sent me to this place but don't worry, I put a bullet right between his eyes."
Connor's face held a look of both shock and devastation and began to weep openly as he hit the ground with his hands causing the ground to crack. He then angrily yelled, "You son of a bitch! I can't believe I'm even related to you! What's so good about money anyway huh, what were you going to do with it?!"
Travis walked over to Connor and held his face dangerously close to his own. He then said, "Simple, I was going to use it to rise to power and get elected as President of the United States. I would then pull a few strings, launch a few bombs, and rule the world. What did you think I was going to do with it, sit on my ass in some mansion? Sorry but I prefer to rule with an iron fist and soon you'll be nothing but a distant memory because I will kill you and bury you where no one will find you."

Connor then let out an angry roar and punched Travis all the way out of Tartarus. When Travis hit the ground, he saw the Mane Six next to him but just as Applejack was about to say something, Connor appeared in front of Travis and punched him all the way into space. Connor then flew after Travis as fast as possible and they seemed to have reached a different galaxy. It was at this moment that both of the brothers decided to unleash their devil triggers. Connor's devil trigger was that of a purple demon and Travis's devil trigger was that of a dark blue armored demon that seemed to have the same color scheme as his sword.


Connor said in a demonic voice, "I will avenge the deaths of Maria and my unborn child. This is where you shall die!"
Travis's demonic voice seemed to almost echo when he said, "It is you who will die brother and once I kill you, I shall conquer Equestria and the world it inhabits. I'll make sure that your new friends die slow and agonizing deaths."
Connor roared once again and swung his blade at Travis. The blade hit Travis and made him bleed again with his healing factor healing the wound. Travis then swung at Connor with his blade and proceeded to slam him into a planet. When Connor landed on the planet, Connor took it and threw it at Travis but he caught the planet in his arms. Travis proceeded to punch the planet into a million peices but it turned out that Connor speed right towards Travis before it happened and proceeded to do a series of multiple slash combos. Travis soon recovered during one of Connor's combos and grabbed Connor's blade before plunging his into Connor's chest. Connor also stabbed Travis but managed to rip the blade out of Travis and push him off.
Travis yelled with anger, "That's it, no more holding back! Prepare for your doom!" It was then that Travis reverted back to his original form and transformed into super saiyan rosè. He then began to charge a black Kamehameha.
Connor saw this and reverted to his original form to turn super saiyan blue. He then said as he then had a red aura inside of his now blue aura, "Kaioken!" Connor then charged a Kamehameha to counter Travis.
With a resounding Kamehameha, the two brothers launched their attacks towards each other now locked into a power struggle. Travis laughed maniacally while Connor roared with anger. Eventually the power struggle was a draw as the beams exploded and sent Connor and Travis back to Equestria where they landed in front of Canterlot creating a huge crater.
Connor and Travis within the crater had a look of exhaustion. Both of the brothers were sweating but they showed no signs of backing down even when their shirts were ripped from their bodies. The wounds they recently obtained also healed rather quickly. It was then that they both summoned a carbonadium sword and lunged at each other with killing intent as they both unleashed a battle cry. It was clear that only one would leave the crater alive.
