We all started in. As we entered the fog, Rainbow started talking, before coming in to our line of sight.

“Hey guys, it’s me. Don’t shoot me.” We all relax our posture, and Rainbow joins us, saying. “It was too hard to fly, so I flew back to here.” I noticed something off, but I didn’t say a word. I needed to figure something out.

“Hey, RD, what is the name of my pet?” She looks at me.

“Wait, you have a pet?” at that, I lunge forwards, and plunge my blade into her gut. She gasps, and then she starts to turn transparent, before disappearing, and a green light flies off into the fog, before a shadow starts to lumber out at us.

The creature looked like a goat, but it’s head had been skinned to the bone, and it walked on two legs. One hand carried a lantern, the other carried a simple looking scythe, much like Applejack’s. It had bone looking spikes pierced into it’s skin, and chains connected to them. On its back, a large wood coffin sat, open, with dozens of glowing, spectral hands coming out of it. And in the grasp of those hands, Rainbow Dash lay, struggling. The creature stood roughly ten feet tall, and was looking at us with empty eyes, that I could swear held malice of intense strength towards us.

“Everyone, shield your eyes!” Link warned as he pulled out some sort oversized walnut.

I through my hand over my eyes, and saw my eyelids flash red, before I opened my eyes and dropped my arm. The creature was almost screaming, and it sounded like a muffled scream, or bleat of a goat. It was covering it’s eyes, and I charged into the opening, racing up to it, and stabbing it with my sword, before bracing and pulling it upwards, slicing the beast from the belly up. Butchershy jumped in, and severed the chains from it’s body, causing the coffin to fall from it’s back. The other girls ran over to her, and started to drag her out of the spectral grasp of the coffin.

As they did, the beast fell over dead, split in half. I picked up it’s scythe, and put it in to my hammerspace. I could always forge it into something new later. After I had it purified of any demon voodoo. Maybe a better scythe for Applejack, as the one she had now was a little old, and looked to be close to breaking.

I turned to Link, and asked him.

“Is that the creature you said looks like the Beihl?”

“Yes, although I was expecting alot trouble.” Link said as he looked down at the goat corpse as soon, his eyes took on a strange gleam.

“What do you see, Legolas?”

“...You’re not the first to call me that,” Link said with a shake of his head. “I’m just checking out its stats. You guys took it down pretty easily,” Link said as he gestured for everypony and me to gather around. “Fire, Demonic, and Angelic weapons are its weaknesses, I used Wide Angle; an ability that lets me see in slightly deeper detail of who or what I see.” he said.

“Well, the blade of Artorias was used to fight against demons in the war that the knight Artorias fought. It was made using the souls of the great wolf Sif, and the Knight himself. How you feeling Rainbow?”

“Fuck you next time you have me scout.”

“Fair enough. Let’s move on. I still hear something big in here, and I don’t want to find it. Twilight, lead the way to the crypt entrance.” Twilight nodded, and took lead.

As we continued on, Butchershy asked me.

“How did you know that it wasn’t Rainbow?” She says

“Her dragon. If you remember, her dragon is the same color as her coat, but it wasn’t. It was red, like the stripe on her hair. All of yours do this, to help me tell what is wrong. The dragons can’t be scanned properly, so they will always be red if they are copies. Purple, for poison. I can tell you more later. But the point is, I have a way to tell if it is or isn’t you.” The girls looked at the dragon on each of their forearms, and then we kept walking on.

We didn’t encounter anything for another five minutes or so, and it was another goat being. I might have to call them Beihl, just so I have a name. They might not be them, but it is better than nothing. This time, Butchershy jumped in first, swinging her saw cleaver and taking a few hands off the coffin. I ducked around the side of the creature, and swung my blade to cut an arm off. Link leaped over its head, spun around and aimed to slice at it’s side, cutting off the other arm. I continue on ducking around behind him, and sever a few chains from him, before the coffin started to tilt, putting him off balance. As the Beihl fell over, Butchershy came up to it, and cut it’s head off. She picked it up, and then punted it into the graveyard.

“Well that is two down. I am taking some of it’s metal chains. Maybe I can forge something from it later.” I start to unhook the chains from the body, and storing them in my hammerspace. I pull the giant staff like thing off it’s back, and do the same. The coffin, I bring out my axe, and start hacking it to pieces, putting the wood in as well. I plan on making some things later, and these are probably good material for crafting it.

“You want to forge something from old chains?” Link asked curiously.

“Well, it beats having to mine the metal, and they aren’t bad, I just melt them down again, and then re-cast them into something else. Have you seen the youtube series Man at Arms? They make all kinds of Fantasy weapons and stuff. They even make the master sword and the Hylian shield. They have videos for the weapons I have. The stuff they use, they use chains, old spearheads, arrowheads, meteorite, SCISSORS, everything. I can use these for something.”

“This is true, better to smelt what exists.” Link said with a nod. “I watched a little of those guys, but it’s been seventeen years since I was forced to leave my world.”

“Shit man, I’m sorry. Hey, wouldn’t it be cool to set up a forge in the multiverse and smith weapons for others like us. Like, guns, blades, hammers and other shit. That would be the richest opportunity for any greedy dirtbag wanting to build up their ego.”

“But of course, that can also attract the wrong kind of crowd. Remember what I said about not every Displaced is a good person?” Link reminded me.

“True. But still, good idea. Anyways, let’s go.” Pinkie starts talking to me.

“Well, I could have someone from Flibblecorp., who happens to be a smithy in his world, to help you with forging.” She says.

“That is a good idea. It would really help to have someone who knows how to forge weapons help out.”

“If we survive this and get rid of that demon you mentioned, I can offer you ore from my world in whichever you plan to forge.” Link offered as he kept his alert on high for anymore goat creatures.

“That would be nice. I mean, the more ore, the more things I can forge. Also, the different magical properties I can add to the creations. Thanks for the offer.”

“Anytime. The ore in my world is pretty decent.” Link said as reached up to pull down on his collar, revealing some kind of brigandine armor underneath.

“I will have to get the blueprints for that armor at some point, in the meantime, lets continue.”

We continue through the graveyard, battling the demons while making our way as best we could towards the crypt entrance. I continually heard the booming steps of some large creature. Whenever we encountered any demons, me, Butcher, and Link would end up being the ones who fought, while the other girls hung back, watching out for any demons that came from the back.

After roughly half an hour of fighting demons, and making our way through the graveyard like we were playing a dungeon crawler, we made it to the entrance of the crypt. Only problem was, the giant guard patrolling the entrance. I finally figured out the source of the thundering footfalls.

The golem like beast was huge. And not just the fact that it was tall, but it was also built fat. It’s head was tiny, with a cherub like face. Behind it’s head, a small bunch of gravestones sat, and at his neck was wing like, well, wings. It was covered in roses, and had branches and things sticking out of the dirt on it’s head and shoulders. It again was fat, and it’s arms and legs were relatively small compared. In its right hand, it held a shovel.

“Thaaaat’s a big one.” Link said as he had to move his head up to see the rest of it’s body. Link quickly reached into his pouch as he started to looking for something that could help against such titan.

“Okay, Rainbow, I want you to fly around distracting it, Rarity, how are your magic arrow, and what types?”

“Well, darling, I don’t have magic arrows. I enchant them as I go along. What do you want me to enchant them with?”

“Explosive magic. Something that goes BOOM. Link, I want you to do the best dodge rolls you can, and distract it. Unless you have something that can help me and Butcher fight this thing. Pinkie, I am guessing you have your party hammer, so help me and Butcher out.”

“I do have some arrows I can use against it, but of course I can give them to Rarity,” Link said as a quiver of arrows appeared on his back. He reached up and removed them, Link started to fiddle with the arrows one by one as quick as he could, once finished, he handed them over to Rarity. Link had taken twenty five of his fifty arrows and had attached something small, round, blue and grey bombs to each of their arrow tips. “Just nock them, take aim, the fuse will light automatically. You have five seconds per Bomb Arrow before they’ll explode.”

“Thank you dear. That will help immensely.”

And with that, we set the plan in motion. Link didn’t use his infamous dodge roll, but he and Rarity used their bows to start firing upon the behemoth Gravedigger. Link kept his distance from the stone titan, his eyes gleaming every so often as he used his Wide Angle to keep track of its health, or ‘HP’ as it would show in his sights. Link kept his arrow’s aim toward the head so that each explosion would keep it’s sight blinded.

Rainbow Dash continually flew around the behemoth, going between his legs, trying to trip him up. She would fly around his head, dodging Link’s arrows, keeping his sights on her.

Pinkie Pie ran around the titan looking for any openings in it’s erratic swings, ducking in and hammering away at a part of his body. She had already managed to take out one of the headstones on his shoulders.

Applejack had taken her scythe, and wasn’t fighting the behemoth. During our scuffle, the other demons in the graveyard had heard the commotion, and came after us. She was dealing with them, and I was about to have to give her my axe, as her father's scythe was starting to come apart.

Butchershy. She was helping out Applejack. I had had to send her to help her out, as the amount of demons was starting to overwhelm the farm mare. She was busy slicing off limbs, and every scythe she had liberated from the demon’s corpses, she put in a pile. She might have been doing it because of my blacksmithing, but I didn’t have the time to find out.

Twilight was lighting up the battlefield, sending fireballs and lightning blasts out to damage the behemoth. Her attacks however, seemed to do nothing, except the lightning. It seemed to stun it for a few moments. However, the lightning attack took up a lot of magic, and took her a second to cast again. I had for some reason counted it, don’t even know how I was able to while fighting, and it took roughly fifteen seconds for her to charge up another bolt of lightning.

I had started to attack everywhere. I kept my eye out for arrows, and hit the beast on the legs, arms, chest, head and back. I used my greatsword, chopping off one of his gravestones on his left shoulder. I had to grab another as he started to shake himself like a dog, trying to throw me off. It worked, and I was flung across the yard, landing on the top of a nearby shed, breaking through.

The Gravedigger was swinging his shovel, and had almost clipped Rainbow a few times. As she came for another pass under it’s legs, the titan raised it’s leg, and stomped down, throwing up dust and rocks in her path.

As Rainbow flew through it, she got blinded momentarily. She kept flying, and when she opened her eyes, she got smacked away by the Gravedigger’s shovel. She was sent careening into the side of the crypt entrance, where she hit her head again, and promptly passed out.

I was climbing out of the rubble of the shed, and saw what happened. I glanced around, and as I looked at Applejack, her scythe broke.

I looked between them. Rainbow was out of the battle, and Applejack had no weapon. I thought for a second, and turned to Applejack. Rainbow would live for a second longer, and she wasn’t in immediate danger.

I started to run for Applejack. But as I did, she had ran for the pile of scythes. As she grabbed the first scythe, the dragon on her arm moved. It did much the same thing as Fluttershy's had done, and breathed upon it. Quickly, the scythe started to change.

Somehow, her father’s broken scythe flew over to the her, and fused with the scythe in her hand.Then, the entire scythe started to glow faintly, and the rust on the demons scythe started to flake off, being replaced by a cleaner, but dulled blade, shaped like a curved and shaped almost like a tooth ripped from some creature’s jaw. The handle of the scythe, twisted, and near the middle, got a hinge, much like Butchershy’s saw cleaver. Near the scythe head, the handle split, and formed a Y, and the tooth like blade’s handle fit in, connecting the blade and body together with metal pins and hooks. The entire scythe had been shorted than her to begin, but rapidly grew taller than her. Pieces of cloth covered parts of the handle, and the blade grip was wrapped in scaled hide.

Applejack turned and swung the scythe. And I got smacked by a shovel. Damn, I should have been paying attention. I am sent flying from the hit, and land near Rainbow Dash. Well, at least I can help her out. I take a quick glance back at Applejack, and see she is starting to mow down the lesser demons, using one or two hits before they fall. I turn back to Rainbow.

She was still fine, so I went back to fighting the boss of the yard.

“Hey Link, how much health left? I can maybe use my one-shot weapon on it, and finish it off.”

“Save it for the bigger threats, it’d be a waste to use it on this golem when we’re doing fine so far,” Link said as he let loose his final Bomb Arrow, causing the golem to wail out in rage. “As for its health, its taking a lot of damage, but we still have a ways to go.” he said as he placed his bow onto his back. Link’s hands took on a bright amber glow before surging up in size into a ball of fire, he thrusts his hands out, releasing the spell straight at the golem. When the fiery ball made an impact, it exploded in a small dome-like shape only big enough to cover up most of its chest.

“Good point.” I leap back into the battle, and slash at the titans leg multiple times, before after the fifth or sixth strike, it’s leg started to crack, the stone having chipped to much to hold all the weight well enough. The behemoth started to topple over, and fell.

“Everybody, just attack the golem. We don’t have time to play around much longer.” As I say this, Applejack and Butchershy break off from attacking the coffin maker demons, and turn to help us fight the boss. Twilight turns and keeps them off, using her fire to do so. Rainbow is just starting to wake up, and Rarity is in turn having to smack the golem with her bow. It looked really funny to watch her do. I need to get her a better weapon.

We all just wailed on the downed giant, and after about another ten minutes, the thing stopped moving. And then it moved, rearing up, to deliver one last slam, which resulted in the front of the crypt being broken open, the stone door breaking into dust.

Sadly, the slam had been right on me. And it hurt. I had blocked most of it with my arm, but it still hurt. Luckily, the scabbard of the holy blade can heal pretty quick, and the injuries and pain were fading quickly. Twilight came over to me, and pulled out a healing potion, which in all sense did what the scabbard did, just a LITTLE faster. And it didn’t ever heal everything. But I was up all the same. Twilight then rushed over to Rainbow, and did the same.

“Well, Link, was that the biggest monster you faced, or was that just a big one?”

“Not the biggest i’ve faced, but staying alive is all the same to me regardless of the threat,” Link asked as he glances at the group. “Is anyone hurt?” he asked in concern.

Rainbow spoke up, “Nah, but my head is dizzy.” We all gave a chuckle.

“Fair. Hey, Rarity. While it was funny to see you smacking him with your bow, we need to get you a better weapon. And Twilight, do you have any physical weapons?” Rarity gave me a huff, but I saw she knew I was right. Twilight shook her head no.

“Okay, how much can you carry Twilight, Rarity?” they looked confused by the question, but I was about to answer them.

“Well darling, I can probably lift about 150 pounds. Why?” Rarity said.

“I can carry about 345. And I agree, why?”

“Well, I can give you two of mine. That way, you have something you can use. I am going to give Twilight the greatsword, and Rarity, I am giving you my Leviathan axe. Careful though, it is a really cold axe.” I pull out the axe, and I hand Twilight the greatsword, and Rarity the axe. I tell her everything I had told Applejack earlier, about concentrating and it coming back through anything when she throws it, and she did a little practice. She was surprisingly adept at using it.

The quiver on Link’s back vanished, returning to the small pouch from where it came from. “I won’t be able to use my arrows for a long while until they regenerate from the void.” Link said as he took a wary glance around the graveyard.

“That’s fine, we won’t be able to use them much anyway because we will be underground. And, since I just gave away two of my weapons, and the third is a secret, I will be using this.” As I say that, I change out my armor using my hammerspace, and change it to a set of light armor, with my right sleeve ripped off, exposing my crystal arm.

I decide to forgo the sword today, and make my fingers into sharp claws, and the back of my arm I make crystals grow into spikes that I can use to backhand any opponents.

“Is it a secret to everyone?” Link asked in a half joking manner.

“Mostly. But if I were to use it, they would wonder why it is hidden in mist. And then I would have to explain it, and then a whole bunch of other crap that I don’t want to have to deal with right now. If you knew the blade, you might just froth at the mouth because of it. Maybe. But anyways, let’s just move on. I really want to kick this demons ass. Nobody scares my daughter, mind controls fillies, and a town, and get’s away with it. Not on my watch.”

And so, we enter the dungeon.
