When Worlds Collide

Cyber Burst stood up and walked out of the hole, dusting himself off in a ‘no big deal’ fashion,

“A party? Without me?” Cyburst said, He seemed to be in a better mood, “You should be ashamed with yourselves”

“Cyburst! don’t give these two idiots any ideas!” Mirage said,

“Too late!” Cyburst said as the sound of his approach finally caught up with him.

“A party? good idea!” A pink pony seemed to come out from under Honeydew, launching him into the air and back onto the ground,

“SWEET PONY JESUS!” Cyburst said, falling backwards

“Did I surprise you?” Pinkie Pie asked, hopping out of the ground and walking over to Cyburst,

“Yes, yes you did Pinkie Pie” Cyburst said as he facehoofed, leaving large claw marks in his face “Bad idea”

Mirage swallowed hard, the sight of somepony’s blood made him lick his lips and get in a pouncing position.

Cyburst always was prepared for any vampony attack, taking out Silverbolt and reverting back.

Cyburst was suddenly locked in place, Mirage’s powers had stunned his body and he was unable to move, not that he needed to, Mirage looked like he was battling with himself his body twitched and one of his eyes turned to a deep crimson,

Cyburst was about to use his magic to put up a force shield when Pinkie Pie hopped happily over to Mirage shoving a red cupcake into his mouth, it had been soaked with blood,

“That did not just happen” Honeydew said, he began to whisper to Jax,

“Don’t worry! it’s only fake blood!” Pinkie exclaimed,

Mirage looked pissed, he hated the fake taste, but it still worked on him quite well,

“Um, Cyburst?” Mirage asked,

“Yes?” Cyburst asked, finally able to move again.

“Can I just have a little bit?” Mirage asked, making his eyes big,

“NO! Phoenix blood is sacred.” Cyburst yelled “Only few ever see it, let alone taste it.”

Mirage lunged at Cyburst like a bat out of hell, latching onto the shield and trying to bite it, never doing any damage,

“Let me in!” Mirage growled,

“I don’t think you want to.” Cyburst said, teasing Mirage

Mirage let out a demonic roar, electrocuting the magical barrier that held Cyber Burst,

“You’re not going to get anywhere like that,” Cyburst said, Levitating with magic. “My wounds have already healed anyway.”

“Doesn’t mean that I can’t bite through your skin you maggot!” Mirage roared, it wasn’t really him doing much of the talking anymore.

“Hmm, you want in so bad, fine” Cyburst said as he put the force shield around Mirage instead, knowing what was happening.

Mirage’s pupils shrank, he looked at the ‘bubble’ around him, his eyes turned into a glowing red, along with his tail, mane and hooves, he pounded on the bubble, shattering it in one blow,

“dang, I was hoping I could keep him in there until he fainted,” Cyburst said “Doesn’t mean I

can’t do it again.”

Mirage stared at Cyburst for a few seconds, never blinking, black electricity cascaded through his veins, breaking all of his sanity and replacing it with rage.

Mirage grabbed Cyburst and began to fly up, Cyburst easily teleported back down to the to “Idiots.”

“Don’t let him catch you” Honeydew said, hiding under a nearby rock,

Mirage roared in anger and shot back down towards Cyburst, gripping his horn and shocking it, draining any kind of magical energy from his body, then he grabbed him by the back of the neck and took off towards Canterlot,

“Buck this, have a present.” Cyburst said as he smashed a large bottle of garlic water over “Mirage’s” head.

The garlic evaporated within seconds, the amount of heat coming off his body was overwhelming and the speed felt like it could break bones,

Mirage sped up even more, never looking down to Cyburst,

Suddenly Cyburst had an idea.

“Hey, Leech!” Cyburst said, “Why don’t you go back to the lake you came out of!”

Mirage looked down at Cyburst with a smile on his face,

“Why don’t you get back to the castle” Mirage said,

“Because it’s right in front of you.” Cyburst said, grinning again,

Mirage laughed, “That’s the whole point” he said,

Before Cyburst could answer Mirage threw him through the wall of the castle, causing wood to splinter all around him, rocks jammed through his skin and the marble walls almost broke bones, almost a second after smashing through the castle he connected with the floor of one of the rooms inside of the castle, Mirage flew in a few seconds after, smiling triumphantly

“Ain’t even mad.” Cyburst said, wounds quickly healing,

Mirage stared Cyber Burst down, sending a generous bolt of electricity at him every so often,

“Why *zap* didn’t I *zap* bring *zap* a *zap* Lightning Rod.” Cyburst said in between shocks of electricity.

“I don’t know, why didn’t you?” Mirage asked,

“Oh, come on. You know that was rhetorical.” Cyburst said, still grinning.

“So?” Mirage asked, “It’s fun to talk to you”

“Oh, why thank you.” Cyburst said.

Mirage lunged at Cyburst again, baring his fangs and hissing loudly,

“Eat rock.” Cyburst said as he threw a large piece of castle at Mirage, and jumping out of the way.

Mirage bit down on the rock and lost his balance, falling over onto his side,

“How embarrassing” Mirage said getting up,

Mirage began to trot slowly towards Cyburst, his head snapping back and forth every few seconds,

Mirage bowed down and growled, like he was trying to stop,

“Cyburst!” Mirage’s voice yelped, “Get back!” Mirage snapped his head again and laughed,

“DIE MAGGOT!!!” He shouted,

“You’re forgetting something,” Cyburst said “I CAN’T.”

Mirage slammed himself into a wall, electrical energy surged up it, dropping worn pictures and paintings off of the wall, next he dove into a bathroom, he spun the faucet handle and turned the water on, splashing himself with it, his color started to return,

He ran back out to Cyburst and spoke quickly, “D-do you have any G-garlic?” he stammered,

“Maybe.” Cyburst said, throwing a large bottle he kept at all times to Mirage.

Mirage unscrewed the bottle cap and stared inside of the bottle, his snout crinkled and he closed his eyes,

“This is going to suck for me” Mirage said, as he put the bottle to his lips, downing almost half of the drink,

Mirage began to topple over and eventually fell,

“What is going on in here?!” A feminine voice asked in a shocked voice.

“Oh, good.” Cyburst said, thinking he knew who it was. “I was afraid that I would have to blow myself up.” he said, looking towards the voice,

Mirage stood before him, changed, but still Mirage.
