"We have such sights to show you."

-Hellraiser (1985)

Earlier in the prison of Tartarus...

Cerberus couldn't get an ounce of sleep this one day. Actually, the guardian hound hadn't been getting any sleep, lately. After all, every single soul in Tartarus was screeching/yelling/roaring up a storm when they learned the Nightmare and Sombra had come back to life for no reason and had taken up residence in this realm of existence. It went down, somewhat, when Sombra returned to his rightful place of torment, but it was still a pain to the mutt's ears.

Even worse was the arrival that the Demon Lords had come back from their slumber to do who-knows what. The dog didn't care. He just wished they'd be quiet like his own prisoner. Namely, the centaur known as Tirek, who sat in his cell, old and withered, awaiting the day when he would rise to punish those who sent him here. After that and a nice meal of magic, he would gladly reign over everything like it was no-one's business.

If there was one thing the both of them could agree on, it's that Nightmare Rarity (as she kept calling herself now) would have to figure out a better place to put the new dungeon before they were driven insane by the incessant noise from the newest prisoners.

"This SUCKS!"

Their point exactly.

That yell came from Gilda, who was among the many prisoners in the underground dungeon. The good news was that the walls weren't exactly sound-proof, probably due to budget cuts and/or laziness. The bad news? A dungeon is a dungeon. As you might have guessed, she was placed with Roseluck in a cramped cell. You can probably guess who shared which cell with whom, at this point.

The Demon Lords, powerful as they may have been, were locked away on the other side of the mortal cells. There prisons were far stronger, no matter how much they struggled or fired their weapons at. They were, for lack of a better term, hell-bent on getting out of here, but nothing worked.

"When I am free from these restraints, nothing shall stop me from tearing both Nightmare AND Celestia into pieces!" The Devastation roared.

"Give it a rest." The Fury sighed. "I've been at this bloody thing for hours and I think I nearly broke one of my arm mouths. You mind shutting up for a bit while I get some shut-eye?"

"We're imprisoned by the wrongful ruler of Tartarus and all you can think of is SLEEP!?" The draconic being growled.

"Rest is...uugh...needed. We have a long day ahead of us." The Pain conceded.

"So, uh, gals, I'm really sorry about how this is turning out. Honestly, we're as pissed as you are." The Suffering explained. "We promise that, the moment we get out of here, we'll go all guns blazing and dethrone the bitch!"

"I don't know about that." Ember confided. "That power that sent us here. I remember my grandfather speaking of it once. Do any of you besides myself recall strange images flashing before us when the spell hit us?"

"Well..." Ditzy pursed her lips as her eyes strayed from each-other. "I did see a lot of weird fur-less monkeys wearing white coats."

"There was this shirtless monkey screaming his lungs out, too." Roseluck added.

"I heard something about 'having the right', but the rest was just...I dunno." Night Glider shrugged.

"Oh! And there were symbols everywhere." Redheart said. "They all glowed purple and didn't look like anything they taught at my university."

"Can't we just call it 'evil magic' and call it a day?" Fleetfoot asked.

"For some reason, I can't help but feel nostalgic with that description." The Devastation put a claw to his chin.

"Weird shit aside, we've been here for several hours and I can already say that this isn't the worse time in prison I've faced." Gilda said.

"Wait, you've been to jail before?" Roseluck looked at her partner, incredulous.

"Yep. And I always got top bunk." She smirked before jumping up onto it. "Dibs."

"You know, since we're here, we might as well get to know each-other better." Redheart said.

"She's kinda right. We're in this together after all." Night Glider agreed.

"Can I start?" Ditzy asked.

"Knock yourself out." Fleetfoot said as she and her partner observed The Fury sharpening all 3 sets of his jaws on the metal bars.

"Okay. Say, The Pain?" She asked the resting and wheezing demon. "What did your friends mean by saying you were a 'living virus'?"

"Well..." The Pain coughed before breathing heavily. From then, his agony seemed to subside. "I was part of a disease known as the Ebola Virus. Me and the rest of the disease spread across the land from the world I came from, killing many. We had no sentience, but we still had the base need to survive. For reasons even I cannot fathom, my being was brought to this realm as a fully sentient creature of fire and destruction. However, the pain that my being was meant to cause others in the name of survival was suddenly thrust upon me. From then on, I became a Demon Lord due to my sudden mastery of the flame, but I suffered throughout it all with no hope of reprieve." When he was finished, he wheezed again.

Ditzy and Redheart looked at him in pity. Here was a creature, born from a death-dealing disease and willed to life as a suffering denizen of Tartarus.

"It is....urrrg...rather ironic that I am speaking to one who has created life..." He pointed to Ditzy. "...And one who prolongs it in the darkest hour of the body." He pointed at Redheart.

"Oh, thanks." Ditzy replied, her ears going down as she remembered her family.

"I do what I can." Redheart admitted.

"Are we talking about origins?" The Suffering asked. "My turn, then!"

"This should be interesting." Roseluck said.

"Yep. It sure is!" The Suffering laid back against the wall. "I think I came from the same world as The Pain here, but that's another story. Anyway, I began life as a simple Great White shark. Nothing much. Just swim and feast on whale carcasses when you could find them. I was pretty much the alpha predator of the sea. Even the Orcas, mighty as they were, couldn't stand up to me without risk of fatal injuries. However, my time came when a bunch of hairless monkeys tried to harpoon me to death. They almost succeeded, but through means that baffle even me, I found myself here with a new body. With a few months of training and then some, I became Demon Lord of Water."

"Doesn't it kinda, you know, freak you out that one moment all you can do is make 'glub glub' noises all day long, but the next moment, you're speaking actual English like nothing happened?" Gilda asked.

"Nope! I was happy enough to be alive! I've got to show you the collection of scars I've got all over my underside!" He pointed to one. "This one was when that one monkey nearly gutted me. Almost succeeded, but, in hindsight, I would have really liked to see if it was that license plate I devoured that was giving me such a bad belly ache."

"Probably. You'll eat anything if it wasn't nailed to the ground!" The Fury laughed a bit. "You'd be as fat as The Devastation here if we didn't keep you on a short leash!"

"Oh, ha ha!" The shark creature did sarcastically.

"You know, that doesn't explain why whatever force that brought you here decided to turn your nose into a freaking sword." Roseluck pointed out.

"No more questions. I think it's my turn." The Devastation said.

"You mentioned that you despise Celestia quite a bit. Why is that? We made a peace treaty with her when our kind attempted to raze all of the ponies long ago." Ember said.

"That is indeed true. However, my hatred goes further than that." He clenched his hand. "I started out as a mere Drake. As in a dragon with no wings or any special abilities at all. I was an outcast, frequently assaulted by the delinquents of my territory just so they could burn off their stress. I resolved to get stronger to confront their abuse of me and even that failed to do anything. However, due to an event that me and the other Demon Lords still don't understand-"

"Why am I not surprised?" Gilda said dryly.

"Patience. I am speaking." The monstrosity held up a finger. "Anyway, I was transformed into the mighty beast you see before you! I established myself as a worthy soldier among the dragons as we decided to take more land in the name of our kind. However, that wretched princess Celestia cut our invasion short. They complied, but I vowed to avenge my kind's honor. I made the foolish mistake of trying to attack her and, of course, I failed. I was...sigh...more foolish than I am now, in hindsight. I made a very insensitive remark about what she had to do with her then-corrupted sister and, next thing I know, I'm falling into the pits of Tartarus. Rumor has it that the outburst she let out caused her to sink into isolation further. Since then, my grudge grew stronger, but I still became a Demon Lord of Earth, so there's that."

"Take my friend Spike's advice. Nothing good comes from trying to one-up another species." Ember said. "Yes, even Gryphons."

Gilda just snorted, but didn't say anything.

"I'm sorry, but it feels like we could have been something greater. I don't hate ponies at all, I just wanted to prove myself to my species. Maybe I just want a rematch with Celestia, that's all." His shoulders slumped.

"That's nothing! It's my turn for a story, mate!" The Fury smiled.

"Were you a dragon from the Crystal Kingdom that went out of control?" Fleetfoot asked.

"Did you come from that world of monkeys or whatever?" Night Glider added.

"Well, sheila, if you must know..." He smiled wryly. "I got a toe infection and here I am! Covered in crystals and acting as Demon Lord of Air. That's pretty much it, mate."

The two mares and pretty much everyone else there looked at him funny.

"What? I'm not usually an honest demon, but that's it! The whole package!" The Fury exclaimed. "So, who's up for a game of finger fillet? We'll use The Suffering as the knife!"

Suddenly, they heard the sounds of screaming descending down upon their home.

"Please tell me that's a rescue team." Redheart said.

"Perhaps...new souls to be tormented?" The Pain thought.

"Or maybe MORE mortal souls are being illegally brought into here! It's ridiculous!" The Suffering growled.

"It's as almost if Discord decided to dictate the day for us." Night Glider face-palmed.

"Discord? I met him and even HE wouldn't do something like this! At least, not with Fluttershy around." Ditzy pointed out.

"Guess we can just hope for the best." Fleetfoot shrugged.

"I am sure we can get through this. If experience has taught me anything, it's that those with sinister agendas never usually see victory." The Devastation said.

"Amen to that." Ember agreed.

Meanwhile in Tartarus, presently...

SLAM!

At long last, we hit the very ground of what I could only assume was this world's version of Hell. My systems weren't damaged much and I found that to be rather curious. We MUST have fallen from the equivalent of the stratosphere's length, so why wasn't the floor covered in splotches that used to be us?

Do you REALLY have to find logic in times like these? Honestly!

Good point. Then again, that would mean pissing you off, so I guess I don't mind the hopelessness of that at all. Anyway, I looked around and immediately rushed to Mordred and the rest of my allies.

"We're here guys! And guess what? We're not dead." I assured as they got up. I looked around the place. "Huh. When I was told we'd be going to the equivalent of Hell, I expected more mind-breaking sights and utter torment. This kinda just looks like somebody just covered a barren wasteland in red paint and added some flames for good measure."

This is your big chance, guy! Kill the abomination! Secure your spot as alpha male! You'll be up to your knees in girls!

Keep your shirt on. Of course I'll cut that villain down to size for what he has done. However, I think I'll give the win to Sonata at the end. After all, he tormented her the most.

What?! But that would imply she doesn't need a man in her life! Girls need men in their lives! There's no grey area.

I'm sorry, but did somebody stuff you with straw while I wasn't looking? Women are people, you know. Now, let me help up my friends before Overcast or some other random event that may involve you comes to send me further into insanity.

There's already a voice in your head. You're well on your way there.

Whatever. Anyway, I ran over to my fallen comrades. There was no sign of Overcast and I wasn't sure if that was really good or really bad. Probably the later. I knelt down to Mordred. "Hey, bud. You okay?"

"Uuugh...my helmet itches..." He groaned before sitting up and stretching. "Whoo! That did wonders for my back! Right guys?"

The others, including The End and his trio, got up groggily. Iron Will, still in his Carnotaurus form, took the longest to get up. I mean, with arms like that? I couldn't blame him.

"Okay. HOW are we not dead?" Valerie asked as she got up.

"I knew I couldn't be the only person who wanted that answered." War remarked.

"That matters little." Lucretia grabbed her sword (why do they always land on the ground with the blade puncturing it?). "For now, we must stay vigilant. The evil of Overcast is still among us."

"Geez. Where did she get all her dialogue? A medieval times restaurant?" Pestilence joked before Conquest growled at him.

"Cease your jabbering." The End said. "I too sense his presence, yet I don't see him."

"Cliches. Cliches everywhere." Sonata got up, utterly dazed before shaking her head. "Oh, hey. What did I miss?"

"Ah, c'mon, girl! Get your head in the game!" Eve exclaimed in her brutish state. "How about the fact that Overcast just straight up absorbed the god of chaos?"

"Can we PLEASE stop talking about Overcast?" I asked. "I understand the danger, but we should probably focus on finding a safe zone. By the looks of this place, we're going to need it."

"It is alright, actually. Tartarus is just as lawful as Elysium." The End pointed out. "We should be safe due to the fact we are technically not dead."

"Our master is right." Conquest confirmed. "We are safe here. The only danger we face is...well, you know. He's quite annoying as well."

"You have NO idea." Sonata groaned.

"I can't wait to sink my teeth into that freak!" Iron Will snapped his jaws. "He killed one of Fluttershy's best pals! Or maybe there's a chance he can come back. I dunno. Either way, Iron Will's gonna taste blood today!"

"I can't help but feel like that form is clouding your judgement." War rested a claw against him. "Calm yourself, for that is when you find the ultimate power."

"No more fortune cookies for him." Mordred joked.

Suddenly, a massive shape materialized in front of us. It was, well, take a guess.

"FOOLS!" Overcast shouted, his tail and tentacles flailing about wildly. "You stand no chance of beating me in this realm! Oh, I can feel the evil presence here empower me with every second! AHAHAHAHAHA!"

"Did you get all your lines from comic book villains or something?!" Valerie yelled. "'Cause listen here, you daft bastard! We'll finish you off before you get drunk on evil or whatevs!"

"I'll take his head for you, master!" Pestilence said to The End.

"Not until I get it first!" Iron Will snarled.

"Boys, it's not a contest." Eve said before brandishing her club. "'Cause I've got it covered!"

"You, monstrosity!" The End roared at the abomination. "You do not belong here! Perhaps you were the evil I sensed was coming to this land! In a few moments, the princesses will come and undo what you have done...if we don't tear you apart first. After all, nobody can escape death."

"How cute." Overcast sneered. "The fleas think they have a chance of beating me in a realm DEDICATED to the worst of the dead."

"You...have a point." Lucretia replied begrudgingly.

"Damn." I said. Even I had to admit. This sounded like a hopeless battle. Nevertheless, I stood my ground with the others. If we had to die, we'd die on our feet!

"I have an idea! How about you STAY here? It would do the world a favor not to let your ass run around." Sonata said. "Or would you rather have a knuckle sandwich before you get settled?!"

"I'll be the waiter!" Mordred joined in. "I also want a snow-cone! This place is pretty hot."

"Uh...you're a sentient suit of armor. How...nevermind." I dismissed what I was going to say. No use in asking questions like that now.

"Even cuter! Threats from the NON-powered one! Isn't that a la..." He stopped during his mock. He sniffed the air and he shot up. Apparently something had caught his attention. "I sense...I sense a source of evil. GREATER evil. As if...all the evil from this realm is being concentrated into one area...how...interesting...how...ENTICING." He said that last part with an evil grin.

"Strike him down! NOW!" The End shouted before he fired a beam of black energy at the beast.

In that moment, we all fired our ranged weapons. Laser eyes, aura balls, beams, and even Mordred's shield struck Overcast, but he simply shielded himself with his tail.

"Once I reach the source, I will be unstoppable!" He cackled. "Oh, and do follow me! I have hostages even!"

"Hostages?! Everyone stop!" I shouted. I mean, wow. Valerie wasn't kidding when she said he was basically a comic book villain. Still, it did get us to stop, though.

"What do you mean, villain?" Lucretia asked, eyes narrowed.

"Oh, nothing much. Except THESE THREE!" With that, Overcast unleashed some tentacles from his body. In each one, there were the Pie sisters. Marble looked like she'd snap like a twig, Limestone wouldn't stop struggling, and even Maud looked pretty beat up. "How is THAT for a motivator?" Overcast said before laughing and slithering off into the distance.

The End let out a furious roar. "If this is to test the very limits of what you can do without dying a thousand deaths, I would advise you to stop now!"

"Give back his cult!" War and Eve both said, flustering them.

"It's...not a cult." The End reminded them.

"Sure looked like one when I saw it, love." Valerie shrugged.

"HABOOSKI!" Mordred shouted before rushing towards the abomination. "Actually, how about...HABERSKI! Nah, I like the other one better."

"Not sure what any of that nonsense means, but I agree! Every second he absorbs evil brings us closer to defeat! Onward!" Conquest said before flying off with his buddies in tow.

"No-one can stop DEATH!" The End said.

"Time for good ol' fashioned payback!" Iron Will ran, but not before allowing Sonata to ride atop him.

"...my life is 74% complete." Sonata said, amazed by this rare experience.

"It is time to slay the beast once and for all! Onward!" Lucretia said before she and her partners took off.

Um...you gonna join them? Or stand around here? That works, I guess.

Shit! You're right, Aaron! And I hate it. Either way, off I go. Hope these legs can carry me far enough. This is looking to be a long run. And I'm not sure I'm gonna like what I find at the end...

A few moments later...

Well, that transition didn't take too long. Couldn't say the same for the run. By the end, I was just fine, but the others looked tired out of their wits. Even the undead spinosaurus god of death or something was wiping sweat off his sail. To say nothing of Mordred, who flopped to the ground.

"I guess...that's leg day for us." War remarked.

"Heh...this is nothing." Eve smirked, despite looking tired herself. "I've ran on hot coals with the girls here before."

"Now, THAT'S nothing!" Pestilence objected. "I had to swim through boiling pools of acid to fortify my skin in order to become a Horseman! Or horse-eel, if you know what I mean!" He giggled.

"Everyone. We can one-up each-other later. We must focus on the mission." Lucretia said.

"Uh...guys. Promise you won't get mad." Sonata nervously raised her hand.

"What is it, Siren?" Conquest asked. Already, I was dreading the answer, judging by her expression.

"Well...this place kinda looks exactly the same as where we started." She said quickly.

"So, wait. Are you saying we're going in circles, love?!" Valerie's jaw dropped.

"Oh, come ON!" Mordred complained. "Just...why?! Why would you do this, life?! WHY?!"

"Okay, okay! Enough." I said. "We can dwell on that later. The worst we can do is panic."

"Like at that?" Iron Will pointed behind me.

I looked and, before my eyes, a massive sinkhole made itself known. From within, a bright red light glowed with the fury of something that could rival the very sun. I was as mesmerized as I was intimidated. From above, I saw strange shapes descend into it. They all made hissing, moaning, and other wicked noises as they entered.

"At the very least, we're not lost." Lucretia said.

"It's just that somebody was too lazy to provide more detailed background descriptions." Sonata concurred.

I swear. I don't get her.

I do. She's a keeper! I just don't get why you're allowing Sir Goofsalot to have her! He's totally unworthy! I don't even think he has a dick.

Quiet, Aaron. I'm trying to analyze the situation. So far, scary hole. Me and my allies in one place. Possibility of Overcast showing up at any point? Not really good odds.

"Well, isn't this a surprise. And right when I want the ritual to begin..."

We all turned to that sultry sounding voice. There, on a throne that screamed 'gothic evil' (dark colors, jagged edges, maybe a few features relating to bats) was a voluptuous mare as black as the night. Her flowing purple/white mane and sinister gaze also got my attention.

"And you are?" I asked.

"Why, allow me to introduce myself." She said as she stood up. "I am Nightmare. Nightmare Rarity, actually. Long story, but, to give you the short version, I am the most magnificent, beautiful, and cunning evil you have ever faced! And it seems Sombra's lackeys, a siren in a human disguise, and that miserable dinosaur have also arrived. What an odd world we live in."

"Hey! Iron Will takes offense to that!" The carnotaurus exclaimed.

"She's referring to me." The End said before looking at the new enemy. "Are you not the entity who has no concept of restraint? Nightmares can be frightening, but they must have a purpose other than bringing sheer terror for eons to come. Also, the 'eternal night' plan you had was idiotic."

"Agreed." Conquest said. "No crops. No warmth. No chance of survival from your would-be-subjects."

"Details, details." Nightmare Rarity dismissed. "I'll admit. You are an interesting bunch. I did not expect you to interfere. However, you are already too late. Notice how I am not panicking or even flinching at the sight of so many foes with different strengths and weaknesses in front of me. That's because I have already won."

"Evil never has a chance of winning. Whatever victory is gained will soon be eclipsed by a tremendous loss." I pointed out. "Remember Sombra? He lasted for a few minutes before he fell."

"And you know what that meant? Sweet, sweet freedom!" Mordred jumped up.

"And soon, the one who slew him, Overcast, will follow suite." Lucretia declared.

"I second that!" Sonata agreed.

"Overcast?" She looked a bit confused. "Is that the name of a desperate metal band?"

Suddenly, the abomination burst forth from the ground behind her, prompting the villain to look back at our greatest foe. Besides Aaron, of course.

Ah, shut up. They haven't even met me yet. I'm not their enemy, either! I just want things to go my way.

Can't fault you for honesty. Maybe. Either way, two villains are in the same room. This can only end so well. Oh, and the three earth pony sisters were still in his grasp. Because the stakes needed to be higher. Why not?!

"This is gonna be fun!" Pestilence giggled. "The possibilities are endless!"

"What's up with him?" Eve asked War.

"Let's just say the experiments and role as Horseman got to him a little too much." He replied. "We'll talk about that later."

"What is this?!" Nightmare Rarity shouted. "What manner of creature are you?!"

"I am Overcast the invincible! No-one is greater than I!" He boasted per the norm. "That fact will become even more true when I get a load of all this evil being pooled into this one area! Nobody can stop me now! I SHALL BE EVEN MORE ETERNAL!"

"Sorry, love, but we're about to spoil your appetite." Valerie sharpened her claws.

"And this time, we demand you stay put while we slay you! No portals! No escape attempts! This will be your final resting place or our last stand! Perhaps both, even. Either way, no more stalling!" Lucretia said.

"Yeah! All this boasting is making my ears hurt!" I remarked.

"No more filler! WHOO!" Sonata cheered.

"NO! Not during my finest hour!" Nightmare Rarity shouted. "My ritual shall not be interrupted! I must complete it through debauchery and-"

"Hold on!" Overcast leaned towards her. "Debauchery? Now, you've caught my attention. You are planning a ritual of uncontrollable lust?"

The dark mare pursed her lips before answering. "Yes, beast. That's what I'm going for. If you're interested, perhaps you would allow me to go through with it?"

"Enough talk! Release my worshipers and fight like a warrior!" The End fired his black beam again at the abomination's face, getting his attention.

"HAHAHA! You really think I'd listen to a remnant of your world's primeval past?!" Overcast laughed before lifting up the three Pie sisters. "Watch carefully as I court Death itself!" He inched several of his tentacles towards the girls. Already, I knew he was going to corrupt them.

"Oh no, you don't!" Sonata shouted. "There's no WAY I'm letting you pull that off again!"

"What's he doing?!" Limestone demanded as the tentacle in front of her started to expand.

"Oh, nothing much." Overcast giggled. "I'm just going to smear my essence all over your pretty face. Then, with some fucking to go along with it, you shall call me God. You'll be free of that pesky thing they call 'free will'. After all, it's only appropriate if I rule over all..."

"Gross. Get a life." Maud plainly said.

"She's right, you know." Marble concurred.

"Hmm...corrupting fluid...just what I need." Nightmare Rarity smirked.

"NO!" Sonata grabbed Mordred's sword and rushed at the beast.

"What the frick-a-frack?!" Mordred exclaimed.

"Sonata, no!" I shouted. I reached out...

...before one of Overcast's tentacles slammed against her side, making a sickening cracking noise. For a split-second, I saw blood come from her mouth before she flew straight into another pit. However, this pit was filled with a strange black fluid. Whatever it was, it didn't look good. We all watched in horror as her body sank beneath the surface.

There goes a potential waifu. Life just ain't fair sometimes.

"This cannot be..." Lucretia gasped after that was done.

"You monster!" Valerie yelled at Overcast. "I hope your death involves a giant butcher knife to chop you into the worst sushi anyone's ever tasted!"

"What she said!" Eve brandished her club.

"...well, fuck." Overcast sighed. "There goes the reason I came here. Sometimes, I just can't control myself. Don't you hate it when that happens?"

"Now you've DONE it..." My katana shook in my hands as I said those words. However, Mordred looked like he was about ready to explode.

Screaming obscenities I can't repeat, he rushed at the being, slicing off tentacles that were big as tree trunks. Nightmare Rarity just sat on her throne, interested in this charade, it seemed.

"What's this?!" Overcast backed away a bit. "No matter. I've had enough of you fools."

In that moment, his tentacles burst forth from the ground and ensnared us. We were all locked into place.

"What sorcery is this?!" Conquest roared as his hand-mouths chewed on the offending tentacles.

"Fight like a man, already!!!" Mordred shouted, rage still apparent in his voice.

"I get it! You've got your tail so far in between your non-existent legs that you don't even wanna fight. Isn't that a laugh?" Valerie concluded.

"For a so-called god, that's pretty pitiful." War said.

"SILENCE!" Overcast spread out a claw, causing the the tentacles to surge with volts. As a machine, it hurt like hell. For the organics, it looked so much worse.

"Heh. That tickles." Pestilence chuckled.

"Now..." He eyed the three ponies in his grasp. "Where were we?"

"This should be interesting." Nightmare Rarity said as she prepared a spell in her hand.

The tentacles expanded even more, ready to fire that corrupting goo unto the hapless mare as the beast laughed. I don't know if robots can feel nausea, but I sure felt something similar.

"Just get it over with." Limestone growled.

"Granted..." Overcast smirked before his tentacle shot out the substance...

...or at least it would have, but only a puff of air came out. Overcast's red eyes dilated as he looked at his tentacles in shock. No matter how many times he pumped them, nothing came out. It would have seemed he had run out of the stuff for a time.

"HOW?! HOOOOOW?!" He screamed in rage. "Don't tell me I have to recharge my essence! Have I used too much?! THIS IS HUMILIATING!"

"Not so tough now, are you?!" Iron Will shouted.

"F you in the A and have a real shitty day!" Mordred taunted

"I guessed he was full of hot air." Maud said, indifferent to the beast's plight.

"All in all, a waste of time." Nightmare Rarity shrugged.

"YOU STAY OUT OF THIS!" He snarled at the mare. "Wait, what are you doing?"

"Starting the ritual before you all bore me to death." She replied. "Time for the real action to start..."

With a snap of her fingers, a bunch of girls and 4 monsters landed right in front of us. It's times like this that I'm glad the background was so minimal. Plenty of space, after all. Something me and my allies were seriously in need of due to still being trapped by tentacles.

"Um...what?" A pale blue pegasus got up.

"Damn it. It's already begun." A strange demonic dragon-being grumbled.

"WHAT THE BUCK IS THAT?!" A punkish-looking griffon pointed at Overcast, who still looked pretty angry, but now, he was getting curious.

"At this point, I'm indifferent to the unusual." A blue dragoness admitted.

"I don't remember him joining our ranks." A shark creature wondered. "Must have fallen asleep that day."

"What do you want now, Nightmare?" A white pink haired mare demanded.

"Bugger me, did you invite MORE mortals into this realm?!" A weird crystal dragon exclaimed.

"Actually, the ritual is about to begin. And I know a guy who has the right spell." Nightmare smirked.

"Totally going to freak out now." Mordred remarked.

Yes! Finally! After so long, my time has come! I've saved this up long enough now! Time for what everyone's been waiting for!

Wait. What do you mean?! Aaron, for the love of whatever god you worship, STOP! This isn't the time! Think of a spell that grants me some kind of new power! A means of escape! A way to finally kill Overcast! ANYTHING BUT WHAT YOU'RE THINKING OF!

Shut it, Stranger! This is my time to shine! My plan may have had a few ups and downs, but it's finally coming to fruition! Time to give the people what they reeeaaally want...

"Uh, you okay, Stranger?" Eve asked. "Got a plan or something?"

"I think we may want to shield our eyes." Lucretia said.

Before I could say or think anything more, the world went white. Whatever Aaron did worked like a flashbang grenade. I couldn't tell what had happened, for I fell into the world of dreams that time.

Do robots even dream? Not of electric sheep, I hope. That just sounds dull.

Meanwhile in Twilight's library...

"Alright. Just stand right there..." Twilight instructed. As she promised, her big brother had arrived. The Captain of the Royal Guard turned Crystal Empire Co-Ruler stood in a circle next to Spike. The both of them had their clothes removed, leaving absolutely nothing to the imagination. Spike couldn't help but stare at the stallion's long and hard cock as they both stood.

"You sure about this, Twily?" Shining asked, a bit nervous. "Don't you think introducing me to your...boyfriend was enough?" He said that last part with unease.

"ENOUGH IS NEVER ENOUGH! WELCOME TO KENTUCKY! AHAHAHAHA!" Said boyfriend, MASSA-CURR, exclaimed. "Seriously, try something new for once!"

"So, what does the term 'futanari' even mean?" Octavia asked her companion.

"Basically, the best of both worlds." Vinyl smirked before turning to Twilight. "Say, have I ever told you your brother's kinda hot?"

"Sigh. Of course you'd say that." Twilight rolled her eyes. "Also, Octavia, the political term is 'intersex'."

"So, we get to keep our dicks, but, at the same time, we'll be girls?" Spike asked. "Sounds like a sweet deal."

"Does Cadence know about this? I think I should send her a text." Shining suggested as Twilight's horn glowed, as well as the circle.

"Pretty lights." The machine observed.

"Don't worry. I already did that. I even got a call. She's pretty invested in the idea too." Twilight answered, arousal apparent in her voice as she stroked a tentacle.

"This should be interesting." Octavia said.

"Let 'er rip!" Vinyl exclaimed.

With a flash of light, the two were engulfed in a purple aura that nearly blinded everyone. Except for the machine, for obvious reasons.

"THE GREATEST LIGHT SHOW IS ALSO THE GREATEST MOISTURIZER! AHAHAHAHAHA!" He laughed as the process took place.

Finally, the lights faded. The fruits of Twilight's actually kinda minor labor were complete.

"This isn't going to end up like that Fly movie we watched, right?" Vinyl asked. "You know, with that stallion trying to teleport, but instead becoming some freakazoid monster?"

"Try not to mention that again." Octavia reminded. "I'm not over that arm-wrestling scene anytime soon."

"No need to worry, girls." Twilight smirked as her cheeks blushed. "We've got more than what we were expecting."

In front of them were Shining Armor and Spike, but, as one might guess, they were now mare and dragoness, respectively. Shining Armor's body looked incredibly slender compared to his previous form. His...er, her breasts were about the same as Twilight's (a nice b-cup) and her tail and mane were slightly longer now.

"Huh. You kinda look like me if I forgot to get a haircut." Vinyl admitted.

"Really?" Shining asked, her tone much lighter than before. "I feel kinda...funny." She looked down. There, her dick was still intact, much to her relief.

Spike, on the other hand, was very pleased upon seeing his-I mean her new form. She had basically the same physique as her previous form except she was a tad curvier, had even sharper claws and serrated spikes, had a longer tail, and had a flat chest.

"Wow. Twilight, I've heard of the phrase 'fucking myself', but this is taking it to the next level." She remarked, her voice much lighter, as she caressed body.

"Feel better now?" Twilight asked Spike as she removed her clothes. She still remembered that the dragon went through an...interesting experience involving portals.

"Much." Spike replied, her face turning beet red. "Although, if it's not much to ask, I'm getting a little horny right now..." She grasped her cock. "Nnnng...not again...could you girls help me?"

"Much obliged, Spike." Octavia said, caressing the cheek of the dragoness, who took a seat on a nearby couch (one that needed to be cleaned after the cellist and the DJ were done reaffirming their relationship the old-fashioned way). "My, you look stunning. Positively adorable."

"Geez. You sound like Rarity, Octy." Vinyl said as she both behind the dragoness and grabbed her new nipples in between her fingers. Spike flinched as Vinyl played around with them, but, gradually, she began to enjoy the feeling, especially when Vinyl just stuck with rubbing her hands all over her chest.

"Well, might as well attend to this." Octavia said, referring to Spike's cock. She got on her knees and traced her slender fingers across Spike's balls before softly licking the shaft. "Mmmm...are you sure you're comfortable with this?"

"S-sure..." Spike grabbed the mare's legs as she positioned her cock near the pussy. "Actually, I think a name-change is in order. How about...Barb?"

"Sounds good." Vinyl said as left the couch, knelt down, and wrapped herself around her marefriend. "Let me guess. This is because you've got some experience now, isn't it? I bet you could fit two of MASSA-CURR's tentacles in your mouth now."

"Let's not push it that far. Anyway..." Octavia wrapped her lips around Barb's cock, earning a satisfied moan from the dragoness as her earth pony began to deep-throat the whole thing. Experience, indeed.

In the midst of that, Shining Armor began to trace her hand across her new body. No longer did she feel the usual muscle from her previous self. She felt so soft, smooth, and then she got to her breasts. She hummed softly as she caressed these new features. She wanted to embrace her new form, temporary as it may be. It even made her wonder what Cadence would be like if the spell was used on her. Just the thought of Cadence, as a stallion, fucking her made her even more desperate.

"I think the name 'Gleaming Shield' sounds good right now..." Twilight smirked as she pressed herself against her new big sister. "So...how about we finished where we started?"

"What do you mean?" Gleaming asked as she felt even more blood rush into her cock.

"I want you do to do what I've always wanted you to do. I want you to fuck me for real. Trust me. If Cadence is willing to share, so is MASSA-CURR." She pointed to the machine, who just waved.

"So he says to me, you've got an awkward situation. Yeah. Real awkward! And I says, WHAT I GOTTA DO?! I WANNA BE GOOD! So, he says you've got a sleep mode! Yeah! SLEEPING! THE NEXT BEST THING SINCE CHEAP AIR CONDITIONING! SLEEP MODE ACTIVATED!" And with that, he curled up and fell to the side, deactivated for now.

"He grows on you after a while." Twilight shrugged as she positioned her big sister's cock under her pussy. Getting the message, Gleaming lifted her up and slowly lowered her. "You have no idea how long I've waited for this."

"Me too. Although, could have done without the killer robot." Gleaming said, some sweat dropping down her forehead.

"Oh, you." Twilight sighed in good humor before she took in her big sister's dick into her pussy. "So...big..." She panted as Gleaming slowly began to gyrate her hips.

"Glad you like it....nnngg...you're still tight..." Gleaming said as she firmly grasped Twilight's ass.

"Say...haaa...when you finish...cum in me, please...I won't mind..." Twilight hugged her sibling even more as her wings stood on end.

Suddenly, a rumbling noise was felt. It was like a small tremor, but it still caused some books to fall down.

"Huh. That was odd." Octavia remarked before getting back to her blow-job.

"Eh. Probably nothing." Vinyl shrugged before continuing to nibble the ear of her marefriend.

Meanwhile back in Tartarus and, by extension, the plot...

Ugh. What happened last night?

Before you freak out, no, you weren't getting wasted. And before you REALLY freak out, no, this isn't going well for me either.

That does provide me comfort. So, what went down? Did we win? Did you actually do something that rid us of this evil?

Actually, it's the fact that we can't do the stuff that's going on around us! LOOK!

Sweet lord, Aaron was right to be shocked. Just not for the reasons he thinks. Around me, I saw debauchery. Debauchery everywhere. I mean, where do I even begin?! How about I start with a few that weren't being mind-controlled into sex by the gas.

Iron Will struggled to tear at his restraints to no avail. Mordred was also trying to get out of his tentacle restraints and he was a lot more vocal about it. "GAH! Fuck this day! Gah, piece of *BREAD*! Why would you do this to a couple of well-meaning guys like us?! FFFF*FUN*!"

Not sure about those censored bits considering that, previously, it was okay to curse like a sailor, but let's, regretfully, move on to the various people that were sexing each-other up like rabbits.

I turned to the Shadows of Sombra and even they couldn't get past the gas. My optics laid upon Valerie as she got pounded by Pestilence, his large arms pinning hers down to the ground. Interestingly, I could see hearts in the pupils of all the females, including her. Still didn't change the fact that my allies were being driven to this point.

"Ah! AH! Oh, love! You make me feel SOOO good!" Valerie smiled as the lamprey-like monster got balls-deep inside her.

"If you think that's something, get a load of THIS!" Pestilence cackled as his body surged with electricity.

Valerie's tongue shot out as she felt the volts course through her body. There wasn't any pain her eyes. In fact, this seemed to turn her on even more. "HOLY SHIT!" She cried out she began to cum all over the eel's dick.

My eyes turned to Eve and War. To my surprise, both of which seemed vastly uncomfortable with the infection taking them over. Amplified by the fact that the Lopunny was still in her belligerent state.

"C'mon, idiot." She grunted. "Fight it. Just a little longer...and we'll make these bastards pay."

"Trying...trying so hard." War breathed. "But...at least let me do this..." He cupped Eve's breasts while pressing her back against his firm chest.

"Gnnng...don't touch them..." She clenched her teeth, though I could tell she was also getting aroused, as, instead of punching him, she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"I can't help it. You're so soft." War said calmly. He continued to fondle her until she herself began to position her pussy over his large cock.

"Fuck it!" She panted. Despite her tone, she looked desperate for something to satisfy her carnal desires. "Just fuck me already! I need you inside me! I don't want to be a virgin anymore. And make it HURT, why don't you?!"

"If you insist." He said before slamming his dick into her, causing her to cry out in both pain and pleasure. With that, he began to pound into her, his ferocious side showing as he took away the Lopunny's virginity.

"Sweet Arceus..." She panted as her sweat dripped onto the floor. Wow. That didn't take too long. And it's only been a minute or two. "I've never felt so alive..."

"Same...thing...HERE!" War roared before I turned to see how Lucretia was doing.

Unsurprisingly, she was being undressed by Conquest. As he did so, I had a thought. Barring the fact that they were being drugged into doing this, I could see these couples coming together. They weren't bad pairings really (especially Lucretia and Conquest, who at least had some history with each-other), so, when this settled, maybe they would take their relationships slower. All in all, this was at least bearable to watch.

Can we just get to what the damn dog is doing to the dragon?

Fair enough. Anyway, he looked at her as the drug-inducing gas kicked in. "Well, this is rather humiliating." He commented as he gazed upon her nude body once more. "The moment this is over, there will be blood."

"Sadly, I cannot deny that." Lucretia breathed as she got on top of him. "Nevertheless, this does bring back fond memories."

"Now, THAT I cannot deny." Conquest smirked a bit before pulling her into a loving kiss. His head was larger than hers, so his tongue left no part of her mouth unchecked. She savored his taste as his dick slid into her.

Having already given herself to him in the past, it slid in with no difficulty (then again, it's been centuries, so how is that even possible?!). Breaking away from the kiss, Lucretia slammed her pussy right down to his balls. "Augh! By the Legendaries, I'm so wet!" She said, no shame apparent in her voice.

"It's been centuries and I still make you feel good?" Conquest chuckled a bit as he traced one of his heads through her long dreadlocks. "Quite a feat." With that, he allowed her to take it from there as her pussy practically worshiped his cock.

Suddenly, a stream of names hit me. Names, visuals, and information that I assumed belonged to the other females and males that were present before I blacked out.

Spoilers: I did that. I mean, who needs ambiguity? Plus, if we're lucky, we can plow them after this.

Actually, if we're lucky, this damn nightmare can end! I mean, it's not too nightmarish now. I just feels pointless and hollow. Then again, Nightmare Charity or whomever that mare was did say there was a ritual going on. Oh, and one of my allies is possibly DEAD. Might as well get this over with, though.

The Pain (Sonata was right, the naming system here WAS bullshit) was fucking Ditzy Doo in the pussy while his back tentacles serviced Nurse Redheart. The grey pegasus's finger's dug into the ground as she took in the monster's impressive girth while the nurse's resistance crumbled with the surprisingly good liquid that was coming out of said tentacles.

"Strange. I don't hurt anymore." The Pain said as he lifted up the mail-mare and held her close as he softly fucked her. "Are you hurt?"

"Haaa...no...just...a bit hot...actually, a lot..." Ditzy panted. Well, she was being mated by the Demon Lord of Fire, after all. Nevertheless, she seemed to be enjoying the feeling she had long since forgotten when her husband left her. Or died. Or whatever info Aaron was feeding me. Personally, I don't know which is worse. Nevertheless, she relished the feeling of having a cock inside of her again.

Redheart, as the info told me, would have never dreamed of having a stallion inside of her. She was so dedicated to her job that there was no room for romance. Sure, she had caught the eye of many, but she put her work first. Now, however, was a time she could finally experience what she had resisted for so long. She let out a moan as the tentacle in her mouth ejaculated down her throat. She drank it all down, savoring the warm taste of demon cum.

The Suffering was massaging his own dick as he waited patiently for something. "Take your time, girls. I'll just, uh, stay right here."

Said girls, Gilda and Roseluck, were too busy with each-other. The flower pony was preening Gilda's feathers as she massaged one of the griffoness's breasts. "Damn, Roseluck..." Gilda panted as she savored the feeling of it all. "When did you learn to do this?"

"Just ask Blossomforth." Roseluck replied before resuming her preening.

"Nnnng...this is good and all...but I can't be the only one needing SOMETHING inside of me." Gilda grunted as pre-cum dripped from her pussy onto the floor. She cast a glance at the shark creature, a grin adorning her beak now. "Three guesses as to whose gonna help us. The first two don't count."

"Already? But you have such a great body." Roseluck pouted as she massaged the taller griffon's waist.

"Trust me, you both can't handle this." She shrugged before the Demon Lord was suddenly in front of them.

"Wanna bet?" He smirked as he presented his quite large dick. "Watch the nose, though."

"Noted." Gilda said before licking the pre-cum off of the member. "Huh. This...actually tastes really good."

"Don't forget 'forbidden'. At least, that's what the folks at Elysium call our cum." The Suffering admitted.

"Is that a fa-AH!" Gilda shot up as she realized Roseluck had decided to eat out her pussy. Despite that sudden development, Gilda welcomed it by clenching her thighs around her companion's head. "Okay...this could get...interesting." She breathed before getting to the blowjob.

The Suffering winced at the sharpness of the beak, so he thanked whatever deity made his dick strong enough to handle it. Roseluck's muffled voice, meanwhile, was getting a bit loud now, especially when she started masturbating.

Damn it all. Why does that Jaws knockoff get all the fuck-luck?!

Don't look at me. I'm not the one who decided to let this 'ritual' go through. Anyway, moving on to the next guy. This one was the freakish entity that called himself The Devastation. Currently, he was towering over Princess Ember as she discarded her armor, revealing her sleek frame.

"Normally, I would save this after necessary courting but...these urges..." She actually looked embarrassed now. "They need to be quelled...NOW."

"Very well. I'm happy to oblige." The monster replied before plates on his chest spread out and revealed a flower-like appendage with two tentacles.

"Bizarre, but this should help. Just...be gentle." Ember laid down and spread out her pussy. "From this day forth, I shall no longer be considered a pure dragoness."

"And I shall no longer be considered a pure Demon Lord. So, I suppose it evens out." He said. "Now..." His tentacles hovered over her mouth and pussy in anticipation. "Let's begin."

I'd just like to point out that whoever is in charge of life here has a REALLY big fetish for tentacles. Just saying.

The first one to go in was the mouth tentacles, which already was giving her a taste of demon cum to comfort her. The next one slowly inserted into her pussy, causing her to wince and her legs to shiver for a while. After a few moments, they started thrusting in and out at a faster rate. Her tail swung wildly in the air as she took in the thick appendages.

The Devastation let out a small roar as he continued to mate with the dragoness, eventually pulling her close. Their bodies were now touching each-other as he held her close and buried his tentacles deeper into her. Her claws sunk into his sides as she did her damnest to take it all. His cum was just that addictive, even finer than the best-made ambrosia. I could see the lumps go down her throat as he came a bit every so often.

The final Demon Lord was The Fury, who looked pretty relaxed for a guy who's name was just that. He laid against a mound of dirt, enjoying the feeling of having his large dick worshiped by two lovely pegasi. Night Glider was riding him cowgirl-style, loving the feeling of both losing her virginity AND taking in the might of a dragon. Fleetfoot just focused on licking and even sucking on his balls as she played with herself.

"Aw, damn, girls. Did we die and go to Elysium? Is this Elysium?" The Fury asked, his mind lost in pleasure.

"Oh, fuck! I'm cumming! I'm cumming soooo much!" Night Glider moaned as her breasts bounced up and down the more she pounded herself against his dick. Fleetfoot just smiled before continuing to lick his balls, for she knew her turn would be next.

Okay. I think I forgot someone. Oh, yeah. Where was The End? I could tell he was tied up, considering I could now see his long tail still entrapped by tentacles. However, what he was doing was another matter.

The three Pie sisters were there as well and they were just as affected from the spell as the others. The undead Spinosaurus looked resigned, but not apprehensive, to his fate as they all looked up to him in lust.

"Alright, fine. I should be ferrying souls to this plane and the other, as well as the fact that we should be free of this evil, but I suppose it's time." His claw waved around in the air a bit before, much to the surprise of Marble and Limestone, Maud suddenly had the largest dick I had ever seen. Forget Big Mac. Forget the Demon Lords. THIS was the stereotype of a horse-cock in full. Black, smooth, and already dripping pre-cum, there it was.

I've totally got a bigger dick. I mean, it's the size of-

Look, I'd say you have to show restraint, but I'm giving out detailed descriptions of sex scenes, so that would be a bit hypocritical. Still, shut up. Anyway, the other two sisters placed their hands on it as they admired their eldest sister's newest appendage.

"Holy shit...it's so big." Limestone observed, actually impressed.

"Is this how we'll have her foals?" Marble asked.

"Indeed." The End replied. "I trust she will be a great..err...father, right?"

"Yes. I accept this responsibility." Maud said as she held her siblings close. "However, I ask we mate inside of you, as well."

"Oh, yes. That. Your feelings towards me are only eclipsed by your feelings for your family. If only Pinkie Pie could join us." The End sighed before opening his jaws. Wait, where was this going?

Yeah, for once, I'm caught off guard.

"Maud, I'm scared. Are you sure this is safe?" Marble trembled. She was silenced by a warm kiss from her sister, prompting her to calm down.

"Eh. Might as well take the plunge." Limestone shrugged before belly-flopping right into his mouth. Lifting his head up, his jaws closed around her and he swallowed. Her outline could be seen down his throat, wiggling as she felt pleasures she never knew before assault her senses.

"I'll keep you close. Don't worry." Maud broke from her incestuous kiss to assure her sister as the jaws came back down and opened.

"Mmmm hmmm." Marble hummed in agreement before laying down on her back against his warm tongue. Maud got on top of her and placed her dick near her sister's pussy. The otherwise emotionless mare began to grunt as she ground her dick against the tongue and her sister's pussy, lubricating her new member. The jaws closed around them as she slid into Marble, ending her virginity rather painlessly.

"I love you, Marble." Maud whispered, a ghost of a smile adorning her face as they slid down the throat.

"I love you too, Maud." She replied before giving her older sister another kiss, this one with plenty of tongue. Their outlines were rather huge as they went down the Spinosaurus's gullet. Soon, Limestone would be there to greet them in the otherwise hollow stomach.

They're having sex inside of him?! Eh. Not the worst fetish I've seen.

Same thing. You wanna know my least favorite? Rape. Guess who made me do that?!

Still mad? Damn, do you hold a grudge or what?

Course I do! Speaking of grudges, where's that pathetic murderer/corrupter? Overcast, you know?

Maybe that fucking huge bored squid over there?

Oh, yeah. I kinda do feel like an idiot now. He was sitting next to Nightmare Rarity's throne which was still located near the pit of evil this ritual was feeding. He tapped his claws impatiently against the ground as the dark mare looked upon this scene with satisfaction.

"I can't believe this. I should be the one corrupting them. I should be the one deflowering them all and turning them into lust-crazed slaves. Why do bad things always happen to me?!" He growled before slamming his fist down.

"You know, you could just wait patiently and, as my creation wreaks havoc across Equestria, overtake them." Nightmare Rarity suggested. "Then, go back where you came from and rule over that world. This one's mine."

"EVERYTHING is mine." Overcast hissed. "In fact, when your creation rises, I want to challenge it to a duel! I shall prove that I am the strongest and better equipped to spread chaos, lust, and despair across the multiverse!"

"Now, isn't THAT a lofty goal?" She teased. "I like it. You have a deal."

"So, you're a gambler?" He guessed, his grin returning. "This should actually be interesting. Still, it's a shame that siren had to go. I'll miss her annoying voice and gorgeous body."

It was at that moment I heard Mordred actually weep a bit. Hell, there even some tears dripping from those red eyes. "Don't worry, Mordred. We shall avenge our fallen comrade soon enough." I assured. "Overcast will pay for sure."

"I just...I just wish we got to know each-other better." He sadly admitted. "The Shadows are great and all, but I...I REALLY MISS HER!" He sobbed very loudly at that before composing himself. "No, no...think of the kittens...think of kittens..."

Something caught my optics, though. That bubbling vat of black ooze Sonata fell into started to bubble and churn. Something was happening inside of it that got me, Mordred, and Overcast's attention.

"A plot twist?" Mordred looked curious. "PLEASE let it be an obligatory plot twist! Wow, I even sound like her! Not sure whether to be sad or happy. Weird."

"Hey, uh, Nightmare? What's in that stuff, anyway?" I asked. I'm surprised she could hear me over the sexual activity, but whatever.

"Looking at the trajectory of the moon and the sun that are not here because shut up..." She began. "That should actually unleash her rage at its highest potential. Granted, she had to be alive to do that, so you're still doomed."

"My curiosity continues to be raised today." Overcast observed as the bubbling grew more violent. "This shouldn't be a problem."

Suddenly, a massive blue blur burst forth from the fluid and landed onto the ground in front of the abomination, creating a cloud of dust. And yes. There was still a massive orgy going on, in case you needed reminding in this insanity.

Sonata had risen again, but in a new form. A much LARGER form. Not as big as Overcast, but enough to reach up to his torso. She looked like a naga with large dark-blue and turquoise spots adorning her frame. Her tail ended in a mighty fin that actually looked quite sharp. She had two sets of fin-like wings, one of her waist (the largest) and the other on her back. Her arms ended in long webbed claws that still looked delicate to boot. Her head had some fins around where her ears would be, giving her a regal-like look. Her snake-like head had a cute little mouth that let out a forked-tongue every so often.

All in all, an interesting way to come back from the brink. Her piercing violet eyes looked up to the surprised, but still confident, face of Overcast.

"A siren with more snake-like features..." Overcast examined her before rolling his eyes. "Reeaaally?"

Imagine the satisfaction on me, Mordred, and Iron Will's faces as she suddenly began to rapidly punch him in the face. Seriously, it was like watching lightning strike his noggin repeatedly. In his confusion, he was slapped by her tail and slashed across the chest. Finally, a beam of concentrated and distorted song shot from her mouth at his body, sending him flying away for a short distance before crashing into a plateau.

She let out a cry of victory, which was a sound I couldn't describe other than the fact that it was just as melodic as it was terrifying.

"WHOO! And with that, Sonata climbs to the top of all badassitude!" Morded was happy again and, you know what? I liked that. His happiness was infectious, okay. She seemed to hear that and, after slithering over to our location, nuzzled her head against the Dullahan. "Even when you're a giant monster for no reason, you're still adorable!" He remarked.

"That was great and all, but could you free us from these damned things?!" Iron Will growled as he struggled further. "It's payback time for real!"

She was about to slash us free when a mass of tentacles barreled into her. "NO! NOBODY MAKES A FOOL OF OVERCAST AND LIVES!" The abomination screamed in rage before she wiggled free and actually flew into the air. "Oh, you can do that, I see. Guess what? NOT! SPECIAL!" He also flew into the air, his wing-skulls glowing with malice.

"Avenge your honor and your comrades! Seize the day!" I shouted in encouragement.

"If I could pee myself, I totally would now!" Mordred exclaimed.

"Remember, gal! When you're attacked by a monster squid, beat him so bad he'll be stupid!" The Carnotaurus roared. We all turned to him in befuddlement. Even the two combatants looked utterly flabbergasted. "Yeah, that needs work." He nervously said.

"HAHAHAHAHA!" Nightmare Rarity interrupted us all as she cackled madly. "It's too late, you fools! You can have your fight later, Overcast! The ritual is just about complete!"

"HACKS! I call hacks!" Mordred shouted angrily as I just face-palmed.

I mean, wow. The moment things get good and she has to interrupt. Can't we have a decent fight scene against evil for ONCE?!

"And with that, your revenge must wait. See you, bitch!" Overcast slapped the distracted Sonata to the ground before landing next to Nightmare Rarity. "I take it they're about to orgasm."

"Every. One." Nightmare smirked.

Indeed, she was right. I could see all the couples begin to reach their climax. Well, it's been like 15 minutes or something (would someone PLEASE actually tell me what time it was?!), so the climaxes might as well be happening now. Anything to move this train-wreck along.

The Three Shadows of Sombra screamed in an almost digital fashion (well, from the info I'm getting, they came from a video game universe. Of course it would sound odd) as their mates came into them. Valerie's eyes nearly rolled into the back of her head as Pestilence's electricity crackled around her body. Eve nearly passed out from the amount of War's cum going into her. Lucretia and Conquest held each-other close as they mated for the second time.

Geez. Talk about making up for lost time! Or, should I say, making out for lost time?

Tell me you get a physical form soon. I want to slap you for just that alone...and plenty of other things you're duly familiar with. Anyway, The Pain's skin was glowing something fierce as he unleashed his load into both Ditzy and Redheart. They were sweating like mad due to the heat and the incoming amount of demon cum did little to cool them off.

Gilda and Roseluck were now sandwiching The Suffering's large dick in between their pussies as they rubbed their bodies together. Holding themselves close and enjoying the feeling of their nipples rubbing against each-other, they came all over his dick as he did the same.

Ember was already being filled with cum at the moment. She removed her mouth from one of the tentacles and roared to the sky as she was claimed. Geez, I'm an open guy and all, so I was kinda wondering what that cum would taste like...if I had a mouth. Why, Aaron? Why do I not have a mouth?

Beats me. Now, keep going!

Fine. I really want to call you a pervert now, but I think that ship has sailed. Anyway, Night Glider was eating out Fleetfoot as The Fury pounded into her pussy, eventually cumming into it. Fleetfoot let out a scream of lust as she came all over her marefriend's face. The Demon Lord's tongue hung out as he savored the feeling mutual bliss they were all receiving.

The End, laying on the ground with his belly full, convulsed as he felt the mares inside of him go to town on each-other. I could see the Pie Sister's outlines as they mated with each-other. Marble and Limestone's pleasured faces could be seen as Maud came all over them (I guess. It's still hard to tell). Suddenly, the personification of death glowed pure black and, soon enough, the three mares were out of there in a flash. Maud was panting heavily as her dick went limp. The other sisters were holding each-other close, cum dripping out of their pussies.

The most important factor was that the hole in the center of this clusterfuck was glowing bright red. Something, indeed, was being born. I could see all the sin accumulated for all this time was forming a mighty being. The shape was round and circular, but it still was imposing its size rivaling Overcast (who, I should remind you, was the size of a 7-story building at the moment).

"It's...amazing. This evil! It's magnificent!" Overcast's eyes actually glimmered with the light. Was he...was he being moved to tears?! Well, I guess I could compare the feeling to when you think you're just getting liver and onions, only to realize your parents are letting you go to California Pizza Kitchen.

By the way, Aaron, way to have me become a sell-out.

Didn't mean to. I hate Italian food. Now, focus on whatever the Hell's happening. If I can JUST work these spells out, I might be able to turn this in my-I mean your favor!

Do so quickly! The light is growing brighter!

"Soon, all this waiting will be worth it." Nightmare Rarity smirked.

"Iron Will suggest we hold onto something!" The former-minotaur among our ranks clung to a patch of ground.

Sonata's massive body curled around us, even the tired-out Shadows/Horsemen. "Ooh! You're a snuggler! By Celestia, I've missed you! And you were only gone for...uh...30 minutes? Yeah, let's go with that." Mordred shrugged.

I just went with the flow, panicked out of my mind. Overcast was bad enough! What kind of monster is going to menace us now?! The only hope is that it will betray those two villains and make it easier for us to take it out! Or maybe it can be reasoned with? I can dream, can I?

"Hey, uh, mates?!" The Fury came to his senses as he witnessed the event take place. "What the bleeding Hell are we doing here?!"

"WHAT THE FU-"

Gilda was cut off when the light encompassed the area. I swear, if we make it out of this, we're investing in shades.

Meanwhile in Discord's Dimension...

"Whoo! Finally, a transition dedicated to us!" Pinkie said as she adjusted her toga (the only thing she and her companion had to wear in times like this).

"Thanks, but I'm quite concerned by the note Discord left for us." Fluttershy confessed, holding up said note.

It read "Hello, dear friends!

Hope you feel better soon! It's great to know you two are recovering and, yes, you're still virgins. Don't worry. The situation isn't that bad. Dr. Discord made sure of that! What IS bad, however, is that the guy who did this to you is still running amok. So, me, Iron Bill Will, and my Angels have personally set out to take care of this mess. Hah! Imagine me, Discord, actually taking the time out of my life to FIX something! What has this world come to?! Still, I really do hope you both have a good time here. I left cookies, but you might have to fend off the dust bunnies. It's breeding season, after all. Be back in a few hours! CIAO!

P.S: Yes, the dinosaur I'm bringing back with me is Iron Will. Yes, I'm not projecting my dislike of The End and I'm totally in control of my life. Why do you ask?

P.P.S: You totally asked. I can tell."

Fluttershy put that note down and sat on the nearest chair after it was finished eating its kibble. "I honestly don't remember what happened. Whatever it was, I hope nobody gets hurt too much. In fact, we should probably get out of here now. Discord's terrible at restraint, sometimes!"

"Sorry, Fluttershy! We're here until the author deems us important again! Give three chapters tops!" Pinkie shrugged before taking on a more foul expression. "He's everywhere you look! Either jacking off or writing the next doozie! He'll probably be at this forever..." She leaned into Fluttershy. "FOREVER." She whispered.

The butter-yellow pegasus turned to the screen. "Can...can we transition away now?" She meekly asked.

Back in Tartarus...

A tornado practically made of sin had now formed in the center. It was bright yellow and looked like it had converted said sin into the fiercest winds I had ever seen. It was rather mesmerizing.

"BEHOLD, EQUESTRIA! MY CREATION IS ALMOST COMPLETE! My time is now! The time of ENDLESS NIGHT!" Nightmare Rarity laughed.

"This is so exciting! All this evil! If I beat whatever is spawned, I'll be invincible!" Overcast was utterly giddy as he imagined the possibilities.

"Bail, everyone! Bail!" The Suffering shouted as he picked up his mates and dove behind a rock.

"There are things demonic entities were NEVER meant to do!" The Pain shouted, pushing through the pain to exclaim that.

"YOU THINK?!" Ember exclaimed.

"When this is over, I am going to KILL that bitch!" The Devastation roared, referring to Nightmare.

"Not until I get there first, mate!" The Fury said.

"Well, this escalated quickly." Roseluck admitted.

"Escalated?! This just shot into the stratosphere, that's what!" Night Glider countered.

"Let's just focus on surviving, okay?" Redheart said as they all hid behind a range of rocks.

"And getting a bath. That was some orgy we involuntarily got involved in." The Suffering said, wiping some cum off his sword-nose.

"You make it sound awfully trivial." Ember said.

"It wasn't that bad." Ditzy shrugged before they all ducked from a stray lightning bolt from the tornado.

"Where's Rainbow Dash when you need her?!" Fleetfoot shouted.

"Or any element for that matter?!" Gilda agreed.

The Pie sisters were still asleep from the stomach fluids and their sex, which kind of amazed me. The end of days was basically occurring and they were napping through it all. The End got in front of them and roared in defiance.

The Shadows and Horsemen were also still at rest from their experiences with each-other. That, and Sonata was shielding us all with her fins and claws.

"This can only end so well." I sighed.

"I dunno. This is how I see Sombra in my nightmares." Mordred admitted.

Iron Will just snuggled further into the coils. He was scared, apparenlty and, really, I didn't blame him. This WAS a pretty intense storm.

Finally, the tornado closed in on itself and formed a massive shape. I could see arms, legs, something resembling a head, and a tail form. The moment of truth was here.

"At last...my creation...the ultimate evil..." Nightmare Rarity smirked as the shape fell right down into the ground. Suddenly, after the light had faded, it jumped up for all to see and...

"JANEEEEMBAAAAAA!"

And after all that build-up, all that terror, all the tension...we're left with this. I can't be the only one being blue-balled here.

Yeah. Me too. Just...describe it. I can't do this. I'm going! For now, yes, but I'm going!

Thank you. Now, where do I even begin with this thing?! It was...weird. It was as huge as I mentioned before, but let's get to its utterly goofy look. It was an extremely plump creature with butter-yellow skin with four suction-cup-like holes in its stomach (there was also one on each shoulder), two-toed pancake-like feet acting as legs (because there were NONE), a short but massive tail, stubby meaty arms with purple armband-like flesh around them, and a round head with elf-ears, some fins, round eyes, and the most childish smile I've ever seen. He also had a purple flesh layer around his waist that almost looked like a pair of stretched-out pants.

At the moment, the massive creature was sitting down and waving its arms everywhere, laughing in a dopey male voice with a reverb. He just seemed so happy to be alive after spending most of his life in development in that infernal pit. Still, this was NOT the ultimate evil I was expecting.

Also, he (judging by the voice, it had to be a 'he') kept saying the word "Janemba" in between each laugh. So, I guess that's his name. Janemba. At least that sounded like somebody put some effort into that.

Everyone just stared at the hapless being, who, in turn, just stared into space and kept giggling up a storm like the child-like creature he was.

"This...this can't be right!" Nightmare Rarity looked utterly confused as well as enraged. "THIS was what we were building up to?!"

"Oh, well. I still sense its evil energy. This will be an easy win." Overcast shrugged.

"Awwww, who's a cute embodiment of all sin?! Who's a good boy?!" Mordred cooed. Even Sonata, mute as she was now, covered her mouth as she snickered. I could see tears of laughter form in her eyes. Iron Will was less subtle. He just couldn't stop laughing.

"Appearances can be deceiving." The End stood his ground. "The power I sense from that being is...phenomenal. Could he be the one to end this evil through his own naivete? Let us find out."

"You know, there's this place we can hang out and crash at until this mess blows over." The Suffering said to his mates, compatriots, and other company. "It's called The Heart of Tartarus."

"Yes...I remember that place...urrg..." The Pain wheezed.

"Tell me it's not the place where they sacrifice the goats." Redheart sighed, having seen enough today.

"No! That's just barbaric!" The Devastation gasped.

"It's a lounge and a brothel, basically. My kind of place." The Fury grinned.

"Nah. I'm done with sex today." Night Glider held up her hand.

"Yeah. Can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm kind of tired." Fleetfoot admitted.

"C'mon. This outta be good." Gilda said as she watched the event in front of her take place.

"It's okay! It'll be on the news soon." The Suffering assured as they all excused themselves.

"Can I go back home?" Ditzy asked. "My kids are probably scared to death."

"Don't...worry...arrrgh...we'll find a way." The Pain said.

"One question." Ember asked. "Where are the princesses?! Shouldn't they be handling this kind of chaos?!"

"I have a bad feeling this day's still not over yet." Roseluck confessed.

And with that, they were out. Fair enough. Back to this, I guess.

Overcast slithered over to the hapless being's location. Janemba's mouth made an adorable 'O' shape as he observed the new being. I could see the curiosity in his eyes as they both examined each-other.

"Hello, freak! I am Overcast! You may call me God before I extinguish your life." The abomination said semi-cordially as he extended his claws. Janemba just put a finger to his chin. "You know, for a being old enough to be in his twenties with how much evil I smell that's accumulated into you, you're pathetic!"

At that moment, something in me snapped. I mean, that does it! I'm tired of us heroes being stuck in the background all the time! I am NOT a spectator! I am a force of good! I wiggled my way out of Sonata's protective coils and rushed over to an area a respectable distance away from the two titans.

"Haven't you've caused enough trouble today?!" I shouted at the evil one, who then turned to me. "Your battle is with me and my friends! We'll make sure you never harm another soul again!"

"Heh. Such heroic nonsense." Overcast waved his hand dismissively. "You too have a great source of evil in you, but it is paltry compared to my victim here. So, I think I'll crush you instead."

Suddenly, he was shoved to the side so hard that he nearly slammed into Nightmare Rarity, who was still trying to comprehend where she went wrong. Before I knew it, Janemba's huge childish face was right in front of me. I backed away a bit as I considered my options.

"Oh, uh...hey there, big fella!" I nervously said. "Welcome to the world, I guess. Nothing to worry about. There's more to this world rather than this depressing landscape. I'd be glad to show it once we get out of this situation."

With a sudden burst of speed, his arms wrapped around my body like I was nothing but a teddy bear (compared to him, I was even smaller than that) and hugged me close as he laughed mirthfully. He seemed happier than before to see me, but you know what isn't happiness inducing? The sound of my metal bending and maybe even breaking due to his strength.

"ACK! Down Janemba! DOWN!" I screamed. He thankfully obeyed and I was plopped onto the ground. I looked at my allies, who were really trying not to laugh. "Say nothing, my friends. Just...say nothing." I turned to the embodiment of Equestria's evil. "Okay...be a good boy and stay away from the bad squid monster."

"JanemPA! JanemPA!" Okay, that was odd. Why was he replacing that last 'b' with a 'p'? Seems kind of random, but then again. That's his entire origin sto-

The dots finally connected. I dreaded the answer, but was this guy imprinting on me as his DAD?! I guess I don't mind children, but this?! Things were moving way too fast and I didn't know what to do.

"Well, would you look at that? He thinks your his daddy!" Mordred teased.

"Remember, friend! ALCOHOLISM DESTROYS FAMILIES! Trust me, I'd know." Iron Will winced at that last bit.

"No, no, and in case you didn't hear me before, NO!" I countered. "Nobody's a father here! Can we just focus on stopping Nightmare and Overcast from committing any more atrocities?! No offense, Janemba." I turned to the beast, who was now leaning down to my level. I had to hold back a laugh. Say what you will about him imprinting on me, but that doesn't change the fact that he was absolutely adorable.

"I have stayed here for too long! There are souls I must ferry to this realm and Elysium!" The End proclaimed as he and the Pie sisters started to fade. "I shall leave this realm, bring my worshipers back home, and let my Horsemen assist you for the rest! If you can hear me, my Horsemen, never falter! Judging by this turn of events, luck is on our side!" And with that, they were gone. Still, that only managed to lightly stir the Horsemen and their respective Shadows.

"Am I being ignored?!" Overcast snarled as he dusted himself off. "Do you know how much it angers me to be ignored?!"

"How do you think I feel?! This whole incident has caused me to feel like a joke! I AM NOT SOMBRA! I AM NIGHTMARE!" Nightmare Rarity screeched as her form distorted with her rage. "Overcast, I'd suggest we eradicate these pests and then go from there before the Princesses finally catch wind of this! Wherever they are, anyway."

"Fine! You take on the lesser mortals! I'll annihilate this wretched pile of concentrated evil!" The abomination pointed at Janemba, who started clapping his hands in excitement.

"Well, this is it." I said as Sonata uncoiled around us and set the tired out Pokemon a fair bit away from us. Deep inside, I really wish they could contribute. Then again, they DID cum pretty hard into each-other, so I guess that makes sense. "We make our stand here and defeat two evils."

"Oh, good lordy loo, this is gonna be awesome!" Mordred clashed his sword against his shield as he prepared for battle. "Ain't that right, my little biscuit?" He asked Sonata, who just nodded rapidly before flexing her claws at Nightmare Rarity. However, her attention turned to Overcast.

"Go ahead. Avenge your family. We have this!" I confidently said to the transformed siren. She nodded slowly this time before flying off to face her dreaded opponent.

Iron Will just clawed the ground beneath him and let out a mighty roar that almost woke up the Pokemon (FOR THE LOVE OF BUTTER, GUYS! WAKE! UP!). His breath weapons charged up in his mouth as he prepared to end this once and for all.

Two battles, one line, all waiting. Might as well start with our little crusade against a being that literally called herself Nightmare. Let me tell you. She really decided to start with a bang. As in she blew up the ground around us and a bunch of shadow monsters came out.

"Tear them apart!" She commanded the monkey-like creatures as they started to advance upon our little group.

I fired my chest tornadoes, scattering their ranks to the left. Those close to the right were decapitated by Mordred's razor shield toss before it returned to him. Iron Will fired his breath weapon, annihilating quite a few. However, that wasn't enough to keep them all at bay. Pretty soon, we had to fight them up close.

My blade cut through many of their ranks, though some managed to get on my back in an attempt to overpower me. Still, I pressed forward and jumped into the sky, shaking the shadow beasts off of me. While up there, I fired my eye lasers at the hordes around me in a circular fashion. Those that weren't fried or bisected were scared by the light, allowing me to land safely. Just to add more variety, I slammed my arms together and, as if I as a big turret, fired both of my wrist machine guns. I yelled furiously as I mowed them down.

Mordred now looked utterly serious, giving him an intimidating look. His skill with the sword was phenomenal. He spun through waves of enemies, decapitating them as if they were nothing but cheddar cheese. He even started to run on top of the heads and corpses of his enemies just so he could get an even bigger body count. It was as if he was keeping score and trying to kill more enemies than me. I must remind myself. He used to work for Sombra. Of course his dark side would show up soon. Still, some smart shadow monsters grabbed his cape and pulled him down. However, he just grabbed his cape and swung his body around, battering nearby enemies with their own kin.

Iron Will was dead-set on taking down Nightmare, as he barreled through enemies without a second though. They were crushed like grapes beneath his feet as he charged and roared. One flying monster was even snatched up in his jaws and used to impede a shadow beast that tried to jump on him. Nightmare Rarity just clenched her fists.

"Foolish brute! Let me show you the power that not even Princess Luna could withstand!" She boasted before her hands glowed with dark energy. She began to fire upon the minotaur-turned-dinosaur, blinding him somewhat. Still, he pressed forward and attempted to sink his jaws into her. "Pitiful." She muttered before unleashing a wave of dark energy that sent him flying into us.

We jumped out of the way as his body plowed through many shadow monsters. When his body settled, they descended upon him. He struggled and even crushed a few, but they still covered him like a plague until me and Mordred stepped in. I slashed through those around his head while Mordred used his sheild to smack some off and his sword finished off the rest.

"Keep fighting, you fools." Nightmare smirked. "For soon, you shall be overwhelmed by the sheer power of-"

She was suddenly caught off guard by an incoming aura ball she narrowly avoided. "What is this insolence?! You nearly fried my hair!"

"You call THAT a hairstyle?! I've seen cowpats that look better!" Pestilence giggled.

"NOW you wake up?!" I found myself saying in my battle-crazed frenzy, but I composed myself. "Sorry. Good to have you back."

"We apologize for that transgression." Lucretia said. "But we have a foe to vanquish for the sake of Equestria!"

"And believe us, Nightmare. Our boss dislikes you quite a bit." War clenched his claws. "This is kinda personal."

"That, and you corrupted Luna at one point. Not cool, love. Not cool." Valerie shook her head.

"Fine! Face my wrath, if you dare! My beautiful wrath, I might add." Nightmare Rarity arms turned into huge razor sharp crystals as she rushed into battle.

"All nightmares end! This will be no different!" Conquest roared before charging with his compatriots.

"Think fast, bitch!" Eve shouted, still in her warrior state, before slamming her club against one of the defending arms.

As we continued to fend off shadow monsters, with Iron Will getting up and impaling a few on his horns even, the Shadows and Horsemen did battle with the dark mare. I'll just say that, even though she was wicked and cruel, it was kind of unfair she had to go up against 6 powerful opponents. I mean, the stuff they did to her shows that they were NOT holding back.

After a few minutes, that stuff was apparent. Conquest had tore off her tail in his rage, Pestilence's tail was coiled around her leg and electrocuting it, War had already dealt her several nasty blows before he was pushed back by one of her spells, Valerie had tied her foe's waist with her whip and pulled so hard that red marks were showing, Eve had shattered both crystal arms, and Lucretia was about to decapitate the evil one.

"ENOUGH!" Nightmare Rarity shouted before she let out a burst of dark energy from her body, blowing them all away. "I WILL NOT BE MADE A FOOL OF BY FURRIES AND REJECTS! Prepare to die!"

"Is that all you have to say?!" Eve taunted, despite the fact that she and her compatriots had hit the ground hard.

"Actually, no. This is an attack that will test your resolve! In fact, you have NO chance of surviving!" Nightmare Rarity's eyes and hands glowed with even more dark energy than before. Her skin was even cracking and exposing purple light. Whatever attack this was, it was a show-stopper.

The shadow monsters disintegrated as they were converted into more power. "Um...attack her!" I commanded. I mean, she was just standing there! We needed to act fast before she unleashed her power. So, we all charged at her, but volts of dark energy struck us all, blasting us away rather painfully. My systems went haywire as they tried to take in all that strain.

"AUUUGH! My giblets!" Mordred cried out as the volts coursed through his armor (or body, really). Iron Will just roared in fury as he struggled to endure.

As we all did our best to stand up and avoid whatever attack was coming our way (and still charging, for some reason), I noticed something. Lucretia was still up, despite her pain, and charging that attack she attempted on me during our first meeting.

"Lucretia! Get out of the way!" Conquest pleaded. "The attack might be too much!"

"Save yourself, love!" Valerie agreed. "There is no WAY I am losing you!"

"It is my duty to protect my comrades and to atone for my sin of serving Sombra's hand. I will start by providing us, at least, hope against this mad mistress." Lucretia calmly said as the aura in her hands started to intensify with her pain.

"Foolish bitch. Hope is fleeting when AGAINST ME!" Nightmare Rarity screamed before throwing out her hands and firing a massive electrified beam of pure dark energy. It almost looked like a serpent looking for the next kill as it closed in on Lucretia. All we could do was watch.

"Behold..." Lucretia closed her eyes before quickly extending her arms. "THE AURA!" She fired a particularly huge aura beam at the offending one before they collided, shattering the ground beneath them.

We held on for dear life behind the Lucario as she struggled against the beam of Nightmare. The landscape trembled with their beam struggle and our friend seemed to be losing as her toe-claws dug into the ground. Sweat poured down her body as Lucretia felt her palms burn with the energy. You could see her fur being singed by the intensity.

"FALL, YOU MONGREL! FALL!" Nightmare shouted as she smiled wickedly. It was an utterly insane grin, as if something in her finally snapped.

"YOU CAN'T WIN! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Lucretia extended her hands out further, greatly increasing the beam's size and causing it to eat up Nightmare's beam. I could see the shock in the evil one's eyes as Lucretia's beam drew near.

"Impossible! I AM NIGHTMARE MOON REINCARNATED! I AM-" She was interrupted by the beam as it engulfed her body. She couldn't scream, but she did convulse with pain as she floated inside the beam. I could see part of her body disintegrate, but, by the end, she would still be alive as she flew into a massive rock at the end. After all, if she were killed that exact moment, how wouldn't she scream out this wham line?

"AARON!!!! YOU SAID I WAS INVINCIBLE! HOW COULD THIS BEEEEE?!"

Sigh. It's always about him, isn't it?

Earlier with Overcast and Janemba...

The vile abomination grimaced as he prepared to sink his claws into the neck of this pathetic twerp, if he could find one. He was looking at basically a cookie jar of evil that he was ready to gorge on and become empowered for life. Then, he'd show this land who's boss and integrate it with the world he had taken over.

"Alright...Janemba..." Overcast was getting really tired on how giddy this thing looked. It was...disgusting! Insulting even. "TAKE ME SERIOUSLY, ALREADY! I mean, are you some kind of idiot?! Dumb question, I know, but do you have no idea what's at stake here?!"

"Janem...BA!" The offending monster put his hands to the ground. The debris below him began to float until, with a poof of pink smoke, they all turned into mini-Janembas. All of them wouldn't stop making noise and, with a hand gesture from their creator, began to advance upon their foe.

"Well, isn't that a pity? The first move you make and it's NOTHING!" Overcast shouted as he fired a beam of blue and black energy from his maw that decimated the clones. Janemba scooted away a bit, but he just seemed mildly disappointed. "Awww, what's the matter? Did the mean Great Old One do that? Well, fear not. For he also did THIS!"

He punched Janemba's face as hard as he could, sending the beast spinning in the air and landing on his stomach before bouncing back up. The monster looked ready to cry...before laughing mirthfully again.

"STOP LAUGHING, YOU DULLARD!" Overcast demanded before he heard a piercing roar. When he looked back, he was tail-slapped by his transformed foe, Sonata Dusk. "Couldn't stay away, could you?!" The abomination taunted. "Well, then. I'll take care of two annoyances once and for all! How about that?!"

(0:00-0:23)

Sonata just floated in the air and flexed her claws at the one that took her family away. The one that ruined everything. The one that almost killed her, dammit! Her jaws clenched as she prepared to unleash Hell unto the vile and perverted being. Overcast just returned the favor with a nasty looking scowl. He, naturally, decided to break the ice.

"I'm waiting, you motherless whore."

In that instant, she had struck at him like a snake about to kill a mouse...if that mouse was strong enough to grapple with her and start struggling with his foe. They coiled around each-other and battered the both of themselves against the ground, seeking dominance over the other. Overcast, being the tallest of the two, looked like he had the advantage, as he slammed her down the most.

(0:23-0:45)

Janemba just watched this scene with curiosity, but also a sense of jealousy. It was HE who wanted to play with the bad squid! Not this thing! He was, however, astute to the fact that this snake thing was his friend. It had come into his defense and beat up the bad squid, so there was that.

In his stupor, he decided to do what he had been doing for a few moments. Trying out new and possibly fun techniques! All he could think about was his big and strong daddy, as well as the tricks he could do. Magic was so much fun! So, he decided to try out something new that came to his otherwise dull mind.

As the bad squid held the big snake in a choke-hold and held his club-like tail over her, Janemba punched into the air and a portal emerged, taking in his arm. Before the bad squid knew it, a portal appeared in back of him.

(0:46-1:08)

Overcast was suddenly hit on the back of the head by Janemba's disembodied fist, causing him to release his grip on Sonata and fall face-first into the dirt. Another portal appeared below him and another arm came through, uppercutting him and even drawing some blood.

Sonata took this opportunity to fire a beam of concentrated sound at the beast's chest, pushing him back a little before he regained his senses.

"YOU IMPUDENT FOOLS! GAAAH!!!" He unleashed many tentacles from the ground to fire a barrage of lasers at his foes, showcasing another of his abilities he had yet to show until now.

Sonata was shot by a few, earning a few pained hisses, but she slithered her way through them as she advanced towards her enemy. Janemba also didn't stop trying his portal punches out on Overcast, who kept doing his best to dodge them.

"URRRGH! You are beginning to annoy me!" The abomination growled as he grabbed one arm and pulled, only to have his waist coiled around by Sonata's lower body, surprising him.

(1:09-1:43)

She began to bite and claw into the skull of her enemy as he howled in anger and attempting to scrape her off against the ground. However, another portal punch sent the both of them into the sky, where they continued to gain dominance over the other. Overcast's claws tore into Sonata's lower body, but she responded by gouging out one of his eyes, causing him to finally break free and shriek in agony.

Before he could hurl a vulgar insult, the both of them had to avoid a stream of yellow orbs that acted like bombs that went off at whatever time they felt like. It was Janemba, of course, firing those things from all the holes in his body. Sonata flew through the sky to get away from this, but her tail was grabbed by Overcast.

Before he could do anything, he was bombarded with the orbs, causing him to crash down into the ground when the explosions became too much. Still, he instantly got up and began to hack away at the orbs.

As the music drew to a close (despite how long it actually was, sorry folks), Janemba fell on top of his head, spinning around and still firing the blasts, destroying many structures around him. Sonata's claws began to glow as she slashed at the air, sending outlines of her claws against the back of her opponent, crippling his wings.

"THAT'S IT!" He shouted with a burst of Eldritch energy. His mouth began to glow along with the palms of his hands. "PREPARE TO BE ATOMIZED, YOU MISERABLE CADS!"

Wasting no time at all, he fired a massive violet beam from his mouth and hands. It was as tall as Janemba and he and Sonata were smack dab in the cross-hairs. Sonata was too surprised to prepare her beam or even leave, so survival seemed hopeless in those moments.

However, Janemba, with a giggle, created a mini-Overcast in his hands that fired the exact same attack. For some strange reason, that beam didn't harm Sonata, but it did make contact with Overcast's beam. It wasn't even much of a struggle. Janemba's copy beam won and the abomination was met with his own attack, searing his skin and causing him to roar in outrage and pain.

When that subsided, Janemba and Sonata squinted their eyes to see if they had truly won. When the dust settled, Overcast looked worse for wear. He was blackened and even burning in a few places. Some of his tentacles were nothing but stumps now. Still, he was alive.

"You...bastards..." He breathed as he struggled to hold himself up. "I am not dead...our battle...is not over...ugh..." With that, he fell over, exhausted for now.

"Janemba! Janemba! Uhehehehehehe!" The goofy embodiment of evil giggled as his tail kept wagging. Sonata gave him a pat on the shoulder as she prepared to deal the final blow. Soon, she would free everyone of her friends (and a few enemies) from his repugnant grasp. Then, things would be back to normal. At least, she hoped.

However, she and Janemba were suddenly blinded by a sudden flash of red light from the abomination's eyes. When they could finally see, Overcast had slithered away into the distance.

Sonata roared in fury, upset that her chance for revenge had gone away...for now. Janemba, on the other hand, was still smiling. He even started to jog towards the Stranger's location before settling for running like a toddler.

She took this time to look at herself. She had to admit. This form was FAR better than her typical siren form. True, she loved her human form to death, but this was fine. Her friends even liked it. Mordred even thought she was more adorable than ever. She had to face it. That knight was growing on her quite a lot. She wouldn't mind going on a date with him once this was all over. Sirens were experimental in nature when it came to romance. Why should this be any different?

To ease her mind, she decided to follow Janemba and regroup with her friends. Oh, and figure out what that weird Kamehameha thingy in the distance was all about.

'It's official.' She thought to herself. 'Anime cliches have been added to the list. Now, hopefully, we can get some other resolution to other plot-points or we'll just go the lazy route and end on a cliff-hang-'

To be continued. Sorry, Sonata.

'...Dammit.'
