This is a one shot of something I thought of while looking for some idea sparkers for my fic Redemption. Had to put this down somewhere so I could focus, and well...hope you enjoy it. Note that this is humanized, but don't hate right away please :(
Celestia hung from a cliff, her white silk dress torn and stained with dirt and blood. Her pale skin glisttening with sweat, and covered with varying degrees of cuts, bruises and burns. Her hair, once lusterous and groomed, now was disheveled. Her eyes were clenched shut as she groaned as pain assulted in almost every point in her body. As she opened her eyes she coughed harshly and took in a ragged breath. Her wings hung at odd angles, broken and battered.
"I," Celestia hissed as breathing caused her discomfort, "I guess I shouldn't be surprised. I don't have the Elements of Harmony anymore....we're on equal levels now."
Suddenly, she felt someone grab her wrist and begin to pull her up, looking she saw a hand with crack and blackened skin, firey cracks covered the entire limb and ran up the armor. The owner of the hand was looking down at her, his entire body the same way as his arm, charred as if he had been burnt with cracks of fire covering him that seemed to flare up ever so often. He had no hair, just a burning crown of white hot fire. His eyes were white, almost as if he was blind, and yet he seemed to be able to see her perfectly as he smiled gently.
"V-Verbti." Celestia said as she was lifted more, the only thing keeping her from falling into the savage sea below was Verbti's grip
Verbti smiled more, before giving a cold chuckle and with a growl turned and threw Celestia into a large boulder. Celestia screamed as she flew, and gasped in pain as she felt her back slam into the rock, the force of the throw pressing her body into the stone.
Verbti gave a cold chuckled as he lifted his hand, the tips of his fingers bursting into flames before the five small bolts of fire blasted forth towards Celestia. Two struck her wrists, but instead of burning her exposed flesh only split down the middle and into the stone, binding her arms in rings of fire. The same was for her legs and one for her neck, which constricted tighter around her as he drew closer.
Celestia gasped, breathing with difficulty as the ring of fire not only burnt at her skin, but made it difficult for her to breath. When Verbti stood right in front of her he smirked.
"What's the matter," he said in a voice that seemed to echo with the crackle of burning flames, "not winning as easily as you thought you would?"
Celestia growled low and said, "I...never said it would be easy."
Verbti spat, "Ha! You won't be winning at all." Then his eyes gazed down towards her chest and his grin grew as he placed his hands upon her breasts. He squeezed them savagly as he caressed them, his fingers pinching the nipples.
Celestia blushed with anger and snarled at him as he continued to work his hands over her chest. Verbti looked up to her and growled before pinching her nipples tightly and twisting them as hard as he could, earning a scream of pain from Celestia.
"What bitch!?! Feeling disgraced!?! Humiliated!?! Is that it!?!" Verbti said as he gave a final twist before releasing her breasts and began to punch her left and right.
"Fool! You don't know what humiliaton is!" Verbti shouted as he continued to punch Celestia in the face, his legs kneeing her in the gut every so often. With each savage blow Celestia began to cough up blood, unable to stop the beating.
Finally Verbti stopped and looked at her with a glare, "Don't worry. I will teach you its bitter taste soon enough."
Celestia looked at him with one eye open as she breathed slowly, sure that at least two of her ribs were broken.
Verbti spat at her, "Just as you taught me. Me a power older and ancient then time itself."
Celestia watched him as he spoke, each word causing the bindings on her to burn with more heat.
"At my finger tips I hold the power to destroy entire planets! Civilizations trembled at the sound of my name!" Verbti said as the cracks on his skin began to glow more red, before finally erupting into flames and making him seem to be made of fire.
"But not you....not you Celestia. And at your hands. Your unbloodied hands my honor and pride, the very foundations on which I always stood crumbled beneath my feet!"
Celestia looked at Verbti, his burning white eyes echoing long held pain and anger. She could not look away, staring into the burning orbs as they poured out all his rage, malice and anger into her. She felt herself tremble under the glare.
"It was at your hands I suffered my first humiliation, toppled by an untested power of harmony and peace," Verbti growled and clenched his burning fists, "but no more! It is time to take back what is mine, I will not live out my existence as just another feather under your cap of conquests! Every second that you live is an insult to my honor, but no more! By my hands Celestia you will be cut down inch by inch. Just as you cut down my PRIDE!"
Verbti raised his hand, ready to deliever the final blow. Celestia gritted her teeth and looked at Verbti, her mind working into overtime as she gathered her own power. This was not the end, not yet. Only one of them would walk away from here.
'But,' Celestia thought with a sad smile, 'I cannot say...which one it will be.'
and there you go. Finally got that out of my head. What happens? Eh I leave that to you. Personally I love Celestia, and I would hate to ever see her destroyed. If you liked this, maybe I'll make a fic about it but for now this little oneshot will do.
