A visit.

Sunnyside's down POV

They had just finished the ritual, and had gotten their power up, when Celestia felt something enter her universe. She then felt two signatures approaching it, recognising them as Betty and Akumu, despite their… offness.

3rd POV

The two blood clones were perched on the roof of a building, looking down at two strange figures. One was in a blue and black suit, black gloves, a blue scarf around its neck, and boots, with a sword strapped to its back, black hair on it's head, and brown eyes, with its hands on its back. The other was much smaller and looked like a bipedal pup, with blue and black fur, and red eyes, looking at the taller creature in confusion.

“You know Celestia's going to tear into them, right?” Betty the Blood clone whispered to the Akumu clone. He nodded, frowning.

“How about you go down there, try and get them to safety, while I distract Sunnyside?” Betty's clone suggested Akumus. The clone nodded, and hopped down as Betty went to Celestia.

Akumus clone approached the two as Betty intercepted Celestia a couple blocks away. A big explosion rocks the area as the two clash.

The taller creature then picked up the smaller one and places her in a bag he made from a white material before placing it on its side and stepping back. “Okay, what's going on?” It asked, its voice distinctly male.

Another explosion went off in the distance, causing the whole city to shake. Everyone turned, hearing clone Betty. “I'm not even going full strength yet Celestia, and you still can't beat me, even after the sacrifices!” clone Betty screams taunting Celestia making her even more enraged.

“While she holds the sunbutt off, we need to get out of here. The clone won’t be able to hold that Tyrant off forever,” Akumus clone said, holding a hand out. “Come on.” He looked to the side, sensing her running off towards the edge and wondering what the hell she was doing.

“And tell me, why should I trust you of all people?” He asked the clone, keeping him away from the smaller creature.

“Because I didn’t kill all these ponies,” Akumu said. “Sunbutt over there did to match us, we actually trained to get this strong.”

The creature growled before pulling up his hood and scarf, hiding his face. “Fine… lead the way, demon…”

“Take my hand, Betty’s clone is about to explode the pillars,” Akumu’s clone said.

“Do I seriously have too?” He asked, only to be met by an explosion, Canterlot rumbling as it started to fall. “Fine.”.”

He grabbed the pink demon’s hand, which quickly turned pink, expanding into a bubble around the two of them. Reaching into his pocket, the demon grabbed a orb, and the three were teleported away.

Sunbootys POV

She snarled in rage. That thing had destroyed the supports to Canterlot! This was a double edged sword. On one hand, she had an excuse for the lives that were lost, she could claim that Canterlot falling had killed them all. On the other, this would make her look weak to the remaining ponies around Equestria, and even to foreign powers.

Flying up, she went quickly to the castle, where Luna was already picking three of the Mane six up and onto her back, Celestia doing the same for three others, before both teleported out of the ruined city.

They appeared in Ponyville, gently carrying the six to their homes and spreading the lie of what had happened.

Meanwhile, in the Castle of Two Sisters, now Fear Castle...

The Akumu clone appeared in the lobby, letting its two passengers go. The taller one put a hand on his head and looked around. “Um...where are we? I can't see or sense...anything.”

“You are currently in the castle of the Two Sisters, home and base of the Fear Twins.” Betty said as she came in, allowing sight to return to normal for the human and pokemon. “So, you’re the unlucky two that were pulled into Celestia's sights.” She added as the Akumu clone disappeared, dispelling itself harmlessly.

The human stepped back from Betty and growled. “And you're the soul of fear…” He then put a hand over the pokemon, as if to shield it from Betty.

“Yeah, I won’t hurt you. I have no reason to. My mission is against ‘monsters and humans’ not pokemon and humans. You two can be all peaceful all you want,” Betty said with a dismissive wave as Akumu came in.

“And why should I trust a demon?”

“Because I’m a displaced, like you.” The pink child said with an eyeroll.

“No shit. If you weren't, you would have killed me before anything. But that doesn't mean you're good.”

“I only have beef with the ponies because they nearly starved me and my bro here to death,” Betty said, wrapping a arm around Akumu. “Besides, I know I’m not good.”

The human just stood silent, absentmindedly petting his small companion.

“How could I have been good?” Betty asked. “I need to feed Akumu here SOULs just to survive,” Betty said. Akumu felt Betty going into the darker corner of her mind, and stopped her with a hug. She hugged him back, mumbling a thanks to him.

“Answer me this. Why am I here? I didn't detect my token anywhere near that area I appeared in.”

“Probably something to do with the ritual Celestia did to take all of the SOULs of the ponies that you saw dead and sell them to make herself and her sister stronger,” Betty replied, turning to him. “Hypocrite…” She mumbled.

The human stopped petting his pokemon and turned to the twins, his face hidden behind his hood and scarf. “What…?”

“Her parents tried to use the same ritual back before we were stoned, so we took their SOULs,” Betty continued. “Plus, Celestia has a unhealthy hate for things looking like or involving me… her sister, on the other hand, is terrified of me.”

“So...these ponies...the rulers of this country...just murdered several of their subjects just to get stronger?” He asked, growling.

“Dead,” Akumu said “SOULs sold, all ten thousand of them.”

The human’s hands turned into fists and he blindingly punched a wall, cracking it. He then put a hand on his face, breathing deeply, trying to calm down. The two waited patiently for the human to calm.

“Are you alright?” Betty asked.

“Yeah...just…” he let out a sigh. “I heard of a Celestia that was technically bad, but at least she only killed ponies she thought were murders. This...this is downright evil…”

“This Celestia believes in the ‘greater good’, it’s her get out of jail free card,” Betty told him with a scowl, venom in her voice when she said greater good.

“What’s your name?” Akumu asked suddenly.

“Huh?” The human replied, not paying attention.

“What is your name?” Akumu repeated.

The human looked at one of his hand before saying, “I'm called Dark now. That's the name worth knowing.”

Betty finished grumbling. “Want a bag of Senzu beans? I make them all the time.” Betty said.

“Uh...what?”

“I found the Inspiration Manifestation book, I can make anything I can imagine,” Betty told him.

“Wait, doesn't that thing corrupt its user? Or at least drive them crazy?”

“If it was anyone else but me,” Betty said with a smile. “But I have a ability that let’s me take control of magic.”

“That a thing the original has, or just you?”

“It is something the original has. It was shown in the Betty Vs Gaster fight,” Betty replied with a shrug.

“I...didn't see that. Last episode I saw prior to...becoming this, was when she killed Sans.”

“Yeah, the original doesn’t give the best reputation,” Betty said with a shrug. “I only cosplayed as her because me and Akumu were doing a duo kinda thing.”

“Exactly what are your real names?” Dark asked, looking around.

“We don’t remember,” Betty and Akumu replied at the same time.

“Hmm. Makes me happy we weren't stoned…”

“It wasn’t too bad, Akumu was there with me the whole time.” Betty said.

Dark stood silent for a moment and looked around the place. “So now what?”

“We don’t know…” Akumu and Betty said at the same time. “Do you have a way home?”

“Not really. At least, not without Screwball at least. If I was summoned with my token maybe, but this? This is new to me.”

“Would she be looking for you?” Akumu asked as Betty handed him a bag of Senzu beans.

Dark shrugged. “If she notices we're gone. But considering the time difference between dimensions, and how often I can get sidetracked, she may not come here during my visit.”

“Maybe I can use your token to try and send you home?” Betty said.

Dark just shrugged and reached into his pocket, pulling out a small silver medallion in the shape of a spider. “Glad I carry a spare,” he said as he tossed it at her.

Betty grabbed it out of the air, closing her eyes and concentrating. She was trying to find his universe through it to make him a portal to get there. Betty started to disappear, before Akumu sent power to her, stabilizing her and the newly formed portal. “I-i c-can’t h-hold this, run!” Betty said, sounding strained.

Dark nodded, saying, “See ya,” before running straight through the portal. He just made it through as the portal imploded behind him. Betty was panting, on her hands and knees.

“T-time to m-make that token…” She said. Akumu helped her up.

“Not now, you're too tired,” Akumu said with a concerned expression.

“N-nah, I-i can, I-i just n-need a s-senzu.” Betty mumbled.

“You gave the last bag you had on you to him, the rest are with me, remember you gave them to me during the last year?” Akumu said with a head shake.

“T-then g-gimme one, d-dammit.” Betty said.

“No, You’re too reliant on them, take a nap,” Akumu said. Betty tried to argue, but Akumu stopped her by casting a sleeping spell on her, picking her unconscious form up and going back into the chamber on normal time so she could safely rest.
