Sorry for the wait there were circumstances preventing me from posting this chapter

Chapter 26 first crossover

'That should deal with the noble.' I thought, as I left the library, and started to make my way back to the orchard. I looked up in the sky to see it was mostly clear, and I smiled as I walked but then something bounced off my head.

I rubbed my head, and looked around to see if a pony through something, but I saw nothing, so I looked at what hit me, to see it was some kind of bracelet. I picked it up then I heard a feminine voice in my head. “My name is Evangel Lucretian. I am Seraphim and I stand for all that is good and just in the world. If you also hold these ideals tap this bracelet twice and hold the sword aloft and I will come." I heard which left me confused but then I remembered what a token was.

'So she is displaced as well, i wonder what she's like?' I thought in my head, and decided to summon her but first I had to get somewhere quiet.

I continued on my way home, but once I got there I headed deeper into the orchard where we didn't go to often, then I held the bracelet in front of me.

I tapped it twice, and it turned into a sword before I held it up. "Come forth Evangel Lucretian!" I said then a portal opened a few feet off the ground, then a humanoid figure fell out, and face planted on the ground.

"FUCKING HELL WHY DID I FACEPLANT?" A muffled female voice came from the figure on the ground.

I cleared my throat before saying. "Are you alright miss?"

She peeled herself out of the ground and stood up giving me a full view of what she looked like, and she was beautiful standing at six feet tall wearing full chainmail armor and carrying a lance with a bow over her shoulder with two bracelets that depict a sword on one and a shield on the other.

"Hello, are you the displaced that summoned me?" She asked inquisitively.

"Yes," I told her.

"Oh that's good I thought this might have been an accidental summons or something, so what's your name and what kind of problem do you have right now that I can help with?" She asked.

"My name is Spyro, and while there is a problem I already have it covered, i just wanted to meet you." I said, as I laid on the ground to relax.

"Well since you don't have a problem maybe we could just talk about ourselves and maybe we will be able to come up with something to do?" She queried

"Ok i guess that fine, but where should I start." I said to myself as I thought about it. "Well the day I was displaced I died saving my granddaughter from falling debris then I was turned into a baby dragon." I told her and she gained a shocked yet proud look.

"That's a noble way to die, worthy of becoming a Dragon." She said.

"Yeah but try going through puberty twice." I said with a grin.

"Well, I can barely remember the first time so…." She said scratching the back of her head.

"Ok then but after that I realized I was turned into Dark Spyro, but the surprise didn't stop there as I found out I had Cynders powers as well." I continued to tell her.

"Who and who? I'm sorry but I don't really have many memories from before I was displaced." She relayed to me.

"Oh okay well Dark Spyro is an evil dragon with all the powers of the original Spyro like his fire breath, but he can also control technology, and Cynder, you can just think of her as a lighting dragon that can turn into a shadow." I explained, as I put my claws together.

"Do either of them have access to Dark magic or Aether magic?" She asked in a pleading manner.

"Well yes Dark Spyro can, but my ability far surpasses his, even have a grimoire," I told her as I held out one claw, making it appear.

Upon seeing the grimoire she drew her bow and pointed it at the book. "Why do you have such an evil book in your possession aren't you afraid of it corrupting you?"

"Yeah i guess you could say my dark magic is special instead of corrupting it helps me, and when it comes in contact with other dark magic, it takes control and becomes mine." I explained. After hearing that she put away her bow and started to walk away looking contemplative.

"Are you alright?" I asked her, as she walked.

"Not really, I'm gonna head to Sugarcube Corners and get me a pick me up wanna join?

"Sure i guess i could get something for myself." I said before getting up and followed her.

After arriving at Sugarcube corner Pinkie Pie got us a Table. "So what are you getting?" I asked her.

"Hey, yo Pinkie Pie can I have a Rainbow Dash Malt XL please?"

"Coming right up, what do you want Spyro?" Pinkie ask me.

"I'll just take a few chocolate muffins." I told her, and she rushed off to get our order.

"So can you give me any help with darkness, and fire and maybe Aether too?" She asked me hopefully.

"Well I don't know what Aether is but I think I could help with Darkness, and fire." I told her then I breathed out some dark mist, then let it float between us. "Every force in the universe has an opposite and is always present one way or another, but that didn't mean that darkness is inherently evil it can be used for good, such as light can be used to cause devastation, the key to for you to master it is to let the two forces work together." I said off the top of my head.

"Aether is literally the life and death element." She clarified.

"Ok then I can't help you with that, but what did you think about what I told you?" I asked her as the mist then turned into a ball.

"I understood it and wow that's pretty cool. Are you able to make constructs out of that mist?" She asked hopefully.

"Well I don't know I have mostly used it or make armor, and weapons for my living puppets, i have an entire army underground waiting for orders." I told her, then Pinkie gave us our orders.

"Would you be willing to spare a number of puppets to use for training purposes."

"What kind of training because if it's just one on one I could do that." I told her.

"Since they are living puppets does that mean they don't have a will of their own? Also since I have never used the Flame, Shadow, and Reaper summons before I don't want to risk a sapient being fighting them in case I lost control."

"I wouldn't say their sapient but they follow orders, and can learn new fighting styles easily." I explained. "Why don't I show you." I said as a magic circle appeared beside me as one was created wearing its blue vest, blue hat with green trim, orange and yellow lines on its arms and legs and its staff in its hand.

"Wow! That's incredible, how do you do that without giving off an aura?"

"It's just something I do, and if you think this is impressive wait till you see this." I said as I breathed out more mist, and it covered the puppets as it crystallized around it making its armor, and gave him a shield as his staff was turned into a spear, and a sword appeared at his side.

"Cooooooooool!" She said.

"After we eat out snacks let's head back to the orchard I know a place you can spar with them uninterrupted." I told her.

"Ok, how are your muffins?" She asked as she took a sip of her Malt and moaned. "Man this is even better here than in my Equestria."

"Their good I come here sometimes after work to enjoy myself." I told her as I ate one of them.

"I wish I had the time to do this more often. What with running a daycare out of my house and taking care of my own two little ones i just don't have the time."

"Yeah I volunteer at an orphanage every now and then it's fun sometimes but sometimes it's not." I said as I remembered the foals that always ran around the place.

"Well I'm done how about you?" She asked

"Yeah I'm done I'll take you to the spot," I told her then took her back to the orchard here no one would interrupt us, then I got 20 puppets in armor in lines of 5 in front of us the first 2 rows were soldiers while the last 2 were archers.

"Guess it's my turn, come forth 'KIERTIS-PIX-TET'." She intoned and a creature made completely of fire that also has a beak appeared in a pillar of fire. (A.N. it looks like this but is on the smaller side and doesn't float more than a couple of inches off the ground) "So what do you think of the first one?"

"It's cool," I said with a smile

"You ain't seen nothing yet, 'KIERTIS' attack five of the Living Puppets with 'Flame Blade'." She ordered causing the minor flame sprite to form two swords from its flames and charge the Living Puppets.

"Defend yourselves," I ordered, and the five lifted their spears as a blue magic circle with the ice symbol appeared, making them all summon ice beetles, then all five breathed ice at the minor fire sprite as it charged.

KIERTIS crossed its blades in front of itself and braced itself for the oncoming attacks. As soon as the attacks hit the swords KIERTIS started to shrink until he looked like a four-foot-tall piece of flaming coal with legs and arms.

Then the puppets prepared another spell as the symbol for fire appeared, and red shields in front with the same symbol appeared causing the flame sprite to charge in anger, and the ice beetles charged as well, and continued to attack as they did. KIERTIS charged one of them as he grabbed it by the neck, and lifted it up to use it as a shield, and as he passed the other beetles he cut off their heads.

The puppets had time for one more spell and a dark circle with the school of death in it appeared as they were all cast KIERTIS glowed as it looked like parts of his life force was ripped from him causing another pillar of fire though much smaller to appear and when it dissipated KIERTIS was nowhere to be seen.

"Well they did better than I thought." I said as I looked at them as they stood back at attenion the shields still in front of them.

"Wow, and he is one of the stronger elementals!" She said seemingly impressed with the Living Puppets strength.

"Don't underestimate my enhanced puppets." I said with a grin.

"You don't understand fire is the third strongest elements that I have access to others it should have defeated at least one puppets before being defeated." She told me

"Well then bring the next one out," I said ready to see what she had at her disposal.

"Come forth 'TREA-TOS-PIX-TET' ." She intoned and all the shadows of the trees around us started to converge on one spot and out of that spot a black mist came together and from the darkness four arms came out with sharp claws.

{POV Change Evangel Lucretian}

As soon as I summoned the minor {shadow} sprite I started hearing a voice in my head. 'You know if you got rid of those puppets armor I could just use my claws to RIP THEM AND THEIR MASTER TO PIECES AND YOU COULD RULE THIS WORLD.'

"Enough of your honeyed words {shadow} sprite I will not bend to your will," I said getting a confused look from Spyro

"You talking in your heads or something?" Spyro asked.

"Yeah kind of, the sprites can talk telepathically to anyone and they can choose who hears them," I told him.

"So what did he say?" He asked me and I told him. "Well then he's welcome to try but don't expect him to find it easy I have tens of thousands of them." He said as he glared at the sprite.

"The only way I can think of him being able to do that is if I dispelled their armor and he wasn't a MINOR sprite," I said putting emphasis on the word minor.

"Well even if you did which would likely be difficult he wouldn't get past me." He told me, and his book's eye glowed.

"I will enjoy feasting on your entrails foolish corporeal!" The {shadow} sprite threatened gleefully making me want to puke.

"We'll see about that," Spyro muttered as this book flew out of his hand, and opened in front of him.

All of a sudden the {shadow} sprite shoots some kind of beam my way hitting me in the chest causing me to cry out in excruciating pain.

Spyro looked at the page then said. "Zürbgaz ruzbzür häz dørbthurgÿzdaz öthnyz ryvzurdrüguruuz yuth zamburrganrmÿrb myrbgḧul U müzånr börẗbgäz, yuth uẗhygöhvrozb öthnyz kuzburduzÿb." Making the sky turn dark as he spoke and the tree's shadows were ripped from their trees, as they converged on one spot then a figure rose from the darkness wielding dual kamas.

"Ow, motherfucker, shit, damn, fuck" I said right before I cast "HOLY LIGHT." Causing the shadow corruption that was spreading through my veins to be dissipated. "Ahhhhh that's much better. Now what to do with you?" I said looking at the sorry excuse for an Elemental.

"Lets see what he has to say for himself before we get started." Spyro suggested but I could see his archers pulled back their bows, and the soldiers lowered their spears.

"I have nothing to say to you, you filthy corporeal. I only did what I thought was best for Mistress." It replied.

"HOW IS CORRUPTING ME IN MY BEST INTEREST?" I raged.

"If the Mistress had let it finish she would have seen the light in the darkness and destroyed the useless automatons armor so i could destroy them and then mistress might let me stay with her like the useless Apopha-Pax. That's what the figure said yes yes yes." It replied.

"I don't know who that is but attacking your master isn't right Guardian finish this." Spyro said, as the figure walked towards the shadow sprite weapons in hand.

"NO IT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO GO THIS WAY, YOU LIED TO ME! YOU TRICKED ME!" It yelled as the Guardian approached it.

And just as the blades were about to decapitate it Spyro said. "Stop." While holding up a claw, just as the tips touched its neck then sheathed its weapons, on its back.

"Why'd you stop it?" I asked genuinely confused.

"Didn't you hear what he said, something manipulated him." Spyro told me gesturing towards the sprite.

"That doesn't excuse its actions it broke one of the cardinal laws 'never to use their powers on their summoner without consent'." I informed him.

"Fine but he really did do it for you so maybe death is a little too extreme a punishment." Spyro told me as he closed his book.

I sighed and said, "You know you're probably right, it is a little harsh given the circumstances of this whole thing but what am I supposed to do it broke the law and there needs to be punishment."

"Well maybe you can think of something later for now let's just move on agreed?" Spyro asked getting a nod from us both.

"Well here goes everything." I said as I took my left gauntlet off then took an arrow from my quiver and sliced open my palm. I then bent down to a clear patch of dirt and drew a sigil of a skull with a giant scythe behind it. "Be drawn here and obey 'DETS-PIX-TET'," out of the ground in front of me rises a three-foot-tall emaciated man wearing a light brown robe with several holes along the bottom revealing his feet dangling off the ground revealing he was levitating in the air, as I looked up I saw the giant blade of the scythe he was carrying, then I looked at his face to see it was a skull.

"So this is an aether sprite?" Spyro asked

"Yeah and this is my first time summoning even a minor one. I've always been too scared to summon it. Reaper sprite attack those five of Spyro's Living Puppets" I replied. All of a sudden it looks directly at Spyro and a malicious aura surrounds it and it swings its scythe at Spyro's head but it was blocked by the Guardian as it used it's blades to hold the sprite's scythe in place. "Stop, I command you! You are not to attack my friend."

"NONE COMMAND LIFE AND DEATH! ALL ARE SUBJECT TO IT AND NONE ARE ABOVE IT!" The sprite bellowed in an old and wise sounding voice and it redoubled its attack making his attack continue towards Spyro, but it went through him, as he turned into a shadow smoke, and jumped away.

"What are you talking about?!" Spyro shouted as he spread his wings.

"NONE CAN ESCAPE DEATH AND NONE SHOULD! YOU ARE BUT THE FIRST ANOMALY I SENSE!" The sprite bellowed again this time with malice in its voice also.

"That was a debt that was already paid." Spyro told him as lightning started to gather in his mouth.

"HUNDREDS OR THOUSANDS MIGHT DIE BUT THREE HAVE LIVED PAST THEIR TIME! I HAVE A NEED THAT MUST BE MET!" It said pleadingly.

"What is it talking about Spyro?" I asked.

"Years ago I saved Applejack parents from certain death, and it caused earthquakes all over the world." Spyro examined as it looked like he was almost fully charged.

"But that is only two ponies who is the third? And why is it attacking you?" I queried.

"Remember when I told I died?" He asked me, before he breathed a stream of lighting at the sprite all it did was swing its scythe and cleave the stream in two.

"Yeah what…. Oh you're the third." I said in realization.

Spyro stop seeing Lighting had no effect and now the guardian going the fight as he tried to cut off its head, and the archers fired.

The sprite spun his scythe to deflect the arrows and then blocked the strikes from the guardian's dual kamas. It then sliced off the hands of the guardian.

Spyro landed next to me as his puppets charged, and he began flipping through his book. "Let's see if there's a banishment spell in here." He muttered.

Thinking back on my years of training I wracked my brain for a way to bring the sprite under control. The only thing that came to mind was a cryptic lesson from Father. It said: 'To master Life and Death, the Aether, you must not be its master.'

"I hope you have an idea because this spell is gonna take a minute to charge." Spyro told me as I saw magical energy gather in his right claw and it started slowly floating over towards us.

A thought sprung to my mind that might just work i walked calmly up to the 'minor {reaper} sprite and said, "this is not our world we have no jurisdiction here, it's not our job to police their death list." I told it and it stopped advancing.

"NONE CAN ESCAPE FOREVER BUT SOME HAVE TO DEAL WITH A DIFFERENT REAPER!" It said then in the blink of an eye it lopped off the heads of five of the Living Puppets.

The other five created a circle that had a pyramid with an eye on them, but then they disappear as two shields appeared before each one, one was green with a leaf on it, and the other was black with a skull then lowered their spears as they held their shields in front of them.

"I AM DETS VALDORIA LEADER OF THE REAPERS I WILL NOT BE STOPPED BY SOME INSIGNIFICANT TWIGS 'TEAK-PIX-TET' COME FORTH AND DROWN MY ENEMIES!" It intoned slashing a divot into the ground that filled with water and from that water came a clearly female blue sprite that in the place of legs has a trail of water.

"Oh shit, Oh shit, Oh shit this is not good. Uh Spyro you might want to stop that spell now before it completely drains you." I said flying into a panic.

"I'm good, I absorbed Nightmare moon not long ago so I can't really feel this." He told me and it surprised me a little.

"How she is the ultimate corruptive influence?" I asked.

"To make a long story short when she and I were hit with the elements she survived by taking a part of my soul which made her stronger than ever, but once I got close to her my soul fragment consumed her almost entirely, and her strength was added to mine, but I did almost died before that." He explained casually.

"Oh, ok...WAIT YOU ALMOST DIED!" I yelled

"Yeah the part of my soul she took, was what gave me my magic, and without it I was slowly dying I could barely even move." He told me.

"Back to the matter at hand, you really need to stop before you exhaust your magic completely and you start using your life force to power it which would KILL YOU! This sprite is a form of the Reaper King even in this form he can't be banished except by the caster." I explained in a panic.

I saw the magic in his claws dissipate and vanish as he put it back on the ground, then he just looked back at his book.

"Thank you Spyro for doing that and now to take care of the elephant in the orchard. Dets Valdoria, Reaper King, Lord of Aether, I beseech you to spare this young one's life and the lives of the two others since this is not our land." I said prostrating myself before him.

"I HAVE ALREADY SPARED THEM! THEY ARE THIS WORLD'S REAPERS RESPONSIBILITY NOW!" He said in his usual wise old voice.

"Ok then now then are you feeling better about these elements?" Spyro asked me before turning the page in his book.

"Yeah all but {shadow} over here." I said pointing at the minor {shadow} sprite.

"That hurt mistress. That really hurt me deep down." It said.

"Well you did attack her, and listen to some voice you didn't even know." Spyro said.

"True. But still, I'm her summoned familiar to the Dark." It replied indignantly.

"That may be true but you haven't earned my trust yet." I said and it looked ashamed.

"So is there anything else you need my help with?" Spyro asked me as he looked up from his book.

"No, but is there anything I can do to repay you like say help you out with a problem?" I asked putting emphasis on the you.

He scratched his chin in thought, and said. "No, I can't really think of anything." He told me.

"NOT SO FAST. Help me! YOU'RE JUST GONNA LEAVE POOR SPYRO TO DEAL WITH ME?" A deep voice says from behind me, turning around I see that the voice came from {shadow} but it wasn't him. Instead of his eyes being pure white they were bright purple.

"Evangel watch out!" Spyro yelled but it was too late chains made of shadow snared me and dragged me to the ground.

Chains then went for Spyro as well but he hated to slip past them, as he jumped at the possessed {shadow} sprite then bit into one of his left arms while breathing out his dark mist that not only entered his body, but crystallized around the arm.

"NO NO NO THIS WILL NOT DO." The entity inside it said as it tried to break the crystal after throwing Spyro off. "WAIT...WHAT HAVE YOU DONE MY HOLD IS SLIPPING *COUGH* *HACK* WHAT are you?" {Shadow} asked starting to gain back control.

Spyro sat in front of him with a smug grin as he said. "My dark magic has a very unusual effect on other dark magic you see when my magic comes in contact with other dark magic that magic becomes mine." He explained, then dark mist came off the sprite's body, and gathered above him, and that is when my chains started to do the same. As soon as the chains were gone all of the mist entered his mouth.

"YOU MAY HAVE BEATEN ME THIS TIME EVA LUCRETIAN BUT NEXT TIME I WON'T LOSE!" A tall indistinct shadowy figure said from beside {shadow} before it dissipated.

After absorbing all the magic Spyro ran over to me, and asked. "Hey you alright?"

"Yea just a little shaken up, but how did it know that name and why is it after me? It just doesn't make sense." I said contemplating everything that had happened since I got here.

"MY FRIEND ALL WILL BE CLEAR WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT! YOU ARE NOT CURRENTLY READY FOR IT TO BE REVEALED!" Dets Valdoria said as he floated up to me only confusing me further.

"Oooookay, moving on from that cryptic piece of wisdom. I think we were figuring out if there was anything that needed doing, right?"

"Yeah but like I said I don't think there is anything." Spyro said scratching the base of his left horn.

"Does that hurt?" I inquired

"No it's just itched a bit, but it's gone now." He told me as he stopped.

"Ok. So do you know how to send me back or should I tell you?" I asked.

"How do I send you back?" He asked me.

"To send a displaced back to their Equestria all you have to say is "their name our contract is complete," and a portal will open to send them home."

"Ok then Evangel our contract is complete." He said then a portal opened not far away from me.

As we were walking to the portal {shadow} floated up next to me and said: "Mistress when that figure was in my head I saw some of his plans and they were fast approaching completion."

This worried me to no end and it must have been evident on my face because Spyro came over and said: "If you ever need me just call ok."

"Same here and you can call me Eva." I said as I stepped up to the portal.

{Spyro's POV}

After they appear through the portal I went back home it figure out what new powers I got
