Loki's Rant of Impossibly Unexpected Revelations

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

"WHAT! THE! FUCK!" So this is fear, I did not think I could still feel this emotion. That is simultaneously interesting and terrifying.

"... Sorry." Why is everything spinning. Ah, a haymaker with the strength of an Ultmagi.

"YOU SINGLE-HANDILY WIPED OUT A RACE, AND MANAGED TO TURN THE MOON INTO A DONUT!!!" Well, that certainly sounded ridiculous when said out-loud

"Well in my defence, Ruin caused me to do it." It was true, he did start it. But now I was fearing for my life when I was telekineticly thrown into the floor, shattering the tiles, then I spat the marble from my mouth. "I get the feeling you're upset?"

"Upset wouldn't begin to comprehend the reckless actions you pulled yesterday! I hereby ba-" I was about to retort on that rather bland writing, but someone beat me to the punch

"Well, that's just lazy writing." Oh shit

"Oh shit..." Wait. Did Swift just swear? Wow...i'm actually feeling a sense of pride right now. But in all honesty, I was more concerned for why Loki was standing before us, and why he was standing on my head, I was starting to swallow that marble now

"Who are you?" Finally, she speaks. At Celestia's question, Loki stepped off my head, as I pulled my face out from the floor, then he tapped his cane against the floor

"Well...I guess I'm still a ghost, shit." He muttered, no idea what that meant. "It means no one knows me, asshole!" Oh...

"Wait, since when could you read my mind?" I asked the obvious like I just slapped with a fish

"Boy, everything, everyone, every time." Loki replied, before turning on his heel, and looking directly at Swift, and Spike who were watching in silence, and possible fear. "'Fear'? Bitch, i'm adorable."

"So, you're Swirft Feath, and Barney, correct?" Loki pointed with a squint, as they both looked at each other, before opening their mouths to speak. "Swirft, correct me, and I'll tear your world a fucking sunder!"

Her mouth closed. So Loki turned again, levitating me to my feet, before smacking me across the face with his cane, which sent my skull, and half the wall to my left into dust. Hold on, I don't have a skull...did he just knock the non-existent skull out of me!? When my face regenerated, Loki groaned.

"Great...I'm weaker in this world, fucking brilliant...." What. The. Fuck. "Ok, right now, serious time people! So shut the fuck up and listen!"

"But no one else is talking but you..." Spike spoke up, as Loki paused, his purple coat blowing in the wind from the new hole in the castle

"Right! So let me explain that Chris did you all a favor." I did? I erased a kingdom, and made a donut of the moon. "Like I said, he did you all a favor."

"And what might that be? That, and who are you?" Celestia asked curiously, as we heard the sound of tires screeching to a halt, as Loki tilted his head to look at her

"Did I say you can fucking speak?" He asked dangerously, but rolled his eyes into the back of his head, then back again, what that an 'eye roll'? "Well first, i'm Loki, God of Stars, learn it, worship it, fucking purge because of it."

"And as I was saying, Chris here actually stopped what would have been another one of Ruin's attempts at building an army, one which I rather have far away from the problem at hand, so in hindsight, probably should have told him, but I like surprises." He rambled, as I blinked at that revelation

"So we stopped an invasion plan?" Swift finally caught on, as he clapped with no movement of his hands

"Essentially, I must say, did not expect you, and Barney to actually fight, given your passive nature." Loki shrugged, then clicked his fingers. "Merry Christmas bitches..."

Swift was now carrying a longsword with a silver blade, with a bulky hilt, with a purple shard attached between the blade, and hilt. The sword forged from Willbreaker, (Void-Edge). For Spike, he now carried a large handcannon, black and white, with a spade symbol on either side. (Ace of Spades).

"And like that, you both get upgrades." Loki slurred in boredom. "Swirft, you can now wield the power of void, alongside 'taking' enemies as your own personal army, all you need to do it make their will bend to yours. Barney, you carry the most powerful handcannon ever made in Destiny, one shot of its endless chamber with cause even dragon scales to be turned to dust, and that doesn't even count the explosive tips."

"Cool!" Spike was already looking at his new weapon with glee, and Swift....well I couldn't really tell, it was a cross between something like fascination, and utter terror

"Right...as I was saying, Ruin is...an odd creature." Oh here we go again. "Shut it boy! Ruin is a Nightmare, as in the physical manifestation of negative emotions, and they do 3 things. Control, conquer, consume. That is what Ruin is here for, and due to his high level of intelligence, and the amount of souls that Chris left behind from Final Flash is only going to make things worse." Oh fuck my ancestors

"What do you mean by that?" Luna inquired, as Loki pointed to me

"He left behind the equivalent of an entire race, and since Nightmares grow stronger with the consumption of souls...." Loki then trailed off, as Spike spoke up again

"Then he's going to be even stronger!?" Gold star to him

"Yep, and if you two 'monarchs' think those 'Elements of Harmony' can harm him, then you must really want me to leave Chris to fuck this world." He laughed at this, before tapping his cane on the ground again, and before we knew it, the whole wall to our left was repaired, and even the face-mark left by me was gone

"Honestly, I don't have the foggiest idea where he is now, and to be honest, as long as he's dead, and the world isn't completely gone by then, I couldn't care less." Loki then tipped his hat, before looking directly at me, I swear, his eyes were scary. "Make a bet if you're concerned, it could be good revenue for later."

*POP*

He just...popped from reality, what the fuck? But then I felt something scroll through my mind, like a typewriter, that, and I could hear a typewriter in my head. 'Challenge THeum-Fuck! Challenge them to addd-Balls! Challliggh-Oh Fuck it! Challenge them to o a duelly-Fuck me!' I think I get the idea.

"Ok, Princesses, Loki wanted me to challenge you both to a duel." Insert large gasp. "I guess its a way to forgive what I did or something along those lines?"

They both looked at each other for a moment, then they both looked at me evenly.

"We agree to your challenge, and when we win, you are to tell us everything about you, from your abilities, to your affiliation with this 'Loki' character." Luna stated, then she glared at me, but I wasn't really phased this time, but the pressure around her body was building, almost like gravity itself was bending. "Noble or not, I will not hesitate to kill you."

"And I you, Luna." I nodded, then I pointed directly at the two of them, as I let some of my biomass seep from my body, almost like I was melting, tendrils seeping from my arms, and face like a Nidus. "If I win, you give me the freedom to use whatever methods of destruction I choose to destroy Ruin."

"That...yes, we will allow it." Celestia agreed, and the flaming aura was burning from her like a comet. "We will grant you one month of preparation, then we shall meet in the Canternlot Coliseum."

"Goodie, but I just want to add one more rule..." This made me grin a little. "Let this event be open to anyone, if they sign their names down, they fight me before all of you, either one or ten times that, then after, I'll face you both at once."

"Deal." Luna instantly agreed to, then I grinned smugly

"Look at it this way, i'll be weaker, so you might just have a chance." That pissed Luna off, and a pang of irritation struck Celestia, good. So I moved towards Spike, and Swift, grabbing the two of them and making my way to the exit. "Seeya when I seeya."

"Are you sure about this?" Spike, If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't be listening

"Meh, you're saying you don't wish to see the fight of the multiverse play out in front of you?"

"...." Not a single word from Swift, hmm, this is rather perplexing, I might need to look into this...

To Be Continued....


Author's Note

This shit's gunna be great! Or atleast later, for now though, I guess i'll leave you to dwell on all these revelations.

Next one will be from the perspective of Swift and Spike for a change. So, that's a thing.
