Nightmareverse: Cosmic Eternity

Intermission: Pied Piper

1.

The Stormbound accepted the void after witnessing deception.

2.

The brown unicorn stallion walked out of the room of his most recent patient. The unicorn was wearing a labcoat and huge googles.

The googles had blood on them.

His smile said everything as he swings open another door. The patient inside screams in horror.

But the void opened a door behind him.

3.

He was living a normal life, he watched Citrus Quest on his TV. He dressed appropiately on the designated hours of the day. He payed his taxes. He was living a normal life.

Until someone knocked on his door. It was the guard. Yeah, turns out he's been doing tax evation for a while. The guards pull out their weapons to intimidate. He attempted to reason with them to no avail. He closes his eyes in fear.

Nothing happens for the next minute.

Believing he's been warped he opens his eyes... to reveal that his home has been splattered with blood and guts of the guards who came for him. He is terrified but at the same time relieved. He looks around in utter confusion

He spotted her in his sofa. She was bitting an apple, the bitemark she left on it was in a shape that you do not expect from a mouth like her's. Next thing he knew, he was inside the void.

4.

The unicorn mare passed some money to a hooded figure, the figure nodded and began to walk away. The mare lets a sigh of relief and began to walk to the opposite direction.

"AAAAHHHHHHHHH"

The mare turns around to find the hooded figure dead on the floor with it's intestines sliding out of it's stomach. The mare is terrified, what if the gang she just payed thinks she killed their middle-stallion? She laughs and loots the corpse. She receives a tap on the back.

The void came for her.

5.

A unicorn stallion who carried a briefcase entered his apartment. Turning on the light showed it was perfectly clean and relatively normal. The unicorn placed his briefcase down and began to prepare lunch for himself...no... for... two?

He placed two plates on opposite sides on the table. He sat down on one side, his horn lights up to open the briefcase and... take out a severed hand of a blue dragon and place it on the other end. He feasted on his lunch, the claw sure didn't, It's bleeding made a mess.

After finishing his lunch the unicorn talked to the severed claw as if it were alive. Asking things a stallion would ask to their very special somepony. After this he grabbed the hand and laid down on his couch with it. Rubbing his face with it.

The void looked in disgust.

6.

A shady augment merchant unicorn leaned on his corner of the alleyway, waiting for the next client. He had a box behind him filled with prosthetics. A sticker was attached to it that just said "100% Functional. Money back guarantee!"

From the look of his face and his magic lifting up a small pouch of bits and his smug smile. You can tell he has just scammed someone. Taking advantage of those that don't know any better. The big bag of bits that popped out of his saddle bag showed how much he gained on that day.

With a laugh he turned to leave and move his shop to another place, levitating his phone and not paying attention made him bump into the void.

7.

The unicorn mare took a sip of her soda can and promptly dropped it to the ground in front of a store, the owner of the store comes out angry about the mare littering his establishment. Only to receive a mean buck to the face by the mare, the surprise kick knocks out the owner instantly and breaks his jaw, causing minor bleeding.

The mare laughs and gets away from the place to avoid getting arrested. Passing by a TV store showing news reports that the "Rebel Battle Royale" is mostly happening on the outter districts of Manehattan, far from reaching the center and most important part of the city. That doesn't stop riots from happening which are quickly dealt with by the Guard.

The mare was amused by the riots but took no part in them. She decided that trying to profit from both sides was a much better idea, she'll get to join the winning side when the dust settles!

Not if the void wins

8.

The green unicorn emerged from the pod confused and tired. How did he get there? Wasn't he in a beach just a few seconds ago?

Looking around he noticed a lot more pods opening and dropping their respective prisoners. He has faint memories of meeting all these creatures. He attempted to stand up and looked to the right. Some were also waking up. Looking back to the left-

Wait... theres seems to be less... unicorns...

He looks back to the right...

Some have vanished too!

Who.. what?!

He's starting to... remember.

He brought them all here for a reason

15.

Another bottle done.

Smashing that glass bottle down with his magic, the unicorn had finished yet another drink, and immediately tried to grab another... only to find out that was the last one. The unicorn then cursed and attempted to read a holo-paper. The many glass shards on the ground should be a clear indicator he won't be able to read it.

He tripped, letting go off the holo-paper from his magical grasp, his body heading straight to the glass shards.

The void catched him.

The holo-paper floated gently to the ground.

16.

The group of unicorns bowed to a small, badly made idol of... whatever it is... It doesn't have a recognizable shape.

The unicorns went on to chant absolute nonsense, as if trying to communicate with the idol.

Even going as far as sacrificing a pegasus in front of it.

Only 2 met the void in person

The rest fought each other to death in confusion and anger.

18.

His corpse was gone before Empress Moon and Inklord could process what just happened

19.

The unicorn guard stood tall in front of the cell he was supposed to patrol, his eyes pointed to a mare's back.

He wasn't really good at it's job.

This is exactly what the void is looking for

The gate opened.

20.

Multiple graves and urns were desecrated.

30.

The prison turned into a tree

36.

He was expecting the void

He refused.

The star got closer
