A zelda boss that doesn't act like one.

??? POV

How did I end up like this? Normally, something like what happened to me would happen after meeting a merchant like most fics I read but nope, all that happened to me was because I just slept after killing Armogohma for more than ten times, why did I do that? Because everytime I killed it, my game would crash before I could save and after the tenth attempt I quitted.

FlashBack

Right now I’m Armogohma itself and I’m in the boss room of the Temple of Time, before my logical and inevitable death by the hands of Link, I experimented with my new body starting with my senses and how I moved with my spider legs.

As to what I see well, it’s like seeing two screens in front of you with one of them looking where I supposed was in front of me and one looking on top of me, the vision where I could see in front of me was extremely detailed, I could clearly make the difference between 2D shapes with 3D shapes, I bet I could see everything all the way to the horizon in Ultra HD because I could even see the drawings on the big statues in the room, and the vision I had on top of me was two times better, I tested my vision and I found out that I could switch between thermovision, nightvision, no not the nightvision you see with the goggles, I could see in the dark as clear as day, it was as if there weren’t any shadows.

For what I can smell well, my ‘nose’ is highly sensitive as I could smell the dust around the room as well as the hot air around the light rays in the room, I could even smell milk outside the room as well as many different smells that were outside the boss room like flesh and other things and for some reason, I wasn’t disgusted by these smells, I was able to focus on one smell only and I could even suppress all smell.

My hearing… My poor ears, I could hear everything outside the room like the circular saw cutting through the ground as well as the creakings made by the golems and the other monsters, I could also hear the cries of Lizalfos as they were cut down by something I guessed was the Master Sword, I could also hear Link himself drinking something, it was maybe to heal himself, I could focus on one sound or mute all sounds just like my smelling.

For what I could feel through my obviously unbreakable skin, I could feel the hot air going up as well as the cold air going down in the room, I could also feel microscopic things on my skin, bacteria I supposed, when I moved it surprisingly didn’t felt unknown to me, in fact, I could move around just fine without any problems, I exactly knew where I should put my legs to move forward, backward and sideways.

Now for my abilities, I couldn’t forget a single ability of Armogohma, I mean I battled the thing for ten times so there were no secrets for me, first is the laser beam shot through the big eyeball, for me it was where I looked on top of me, now how should I do this? Maybe if I intensely glare where I looked it could work? And sure enough, the point where I was looking started to burn intensely and the room was lighted with a crimson light, I stopped glaring at the spot and all went back to normal, even the burning spot I glared at started to renew itself, I couldn’t tell the difference in my vision as I didn’t see any light coming out of it, I just saw the point I was glaring starting to melt.

The second ability was the one to lay eggs, urgh, how do I do that? Do I just push like I was having a big crap? Wait, something’s coming out, no, seriously? That’s how I do it? I turned around and I could see a group of egg that were starting to hatch, and when they did, countless amount of little spiders were running around, some were even cuddling me while others were climbing on top of me, they were literal kids playing around, I bet that if an arachnophobic was in my place, then he would surely die of a heart attack.

Then I started to have chills because I smelled Link coming closer to the room, I could also hear him dodging the traps in the room just outside of here, I started to climb the wall and when I did I was surprised to not feel the gravity pulling me down, in fact, it’s as if the gravity shifted so that the ground was now the wall, it did the same thing when I tried to climb on the roof, for me, the ground was the roof and the sky was the ground, yeah it’s pretty confusing.

That’s when I had a thought about something, Link didn’t go around dungeons to kill random monsters no, he had different reasons for going in the many dungeons he went through, and the reason he came in the Temple I’m in is to get one of the shattered piece of the Twilight mirror, so if I give him the mirror, then he doesn’t have a reason to kill me, I need to find a way to get the mirror and give it to him without fighting.

“Hi, hello, hmmm.” I said, I could not believe that I could talk even if I’m a spider, in fact, I didn’t even move my arachnid mouth, the voice just came out of it like it was nothing and the voice itself didn’t sound threatening at all! That’s good, but now what about the mirror?

That’s when I felt like throwing up and when I did, the mirror came out, just what I needed, so before the mirror could fall on the ground, I kept it in my mouth which surprisingly didn’t have any saliva, that’s when I noticed that I didn’t feel hungry or thirsty, I could only feel tiredness.

But before I could continue my analysis, the door started to open, and Link was entering the room but before he went towards the statue, I jumped down and my body started to turn around in mid air while the gravity shifted, when I landed in front of Link, he was so startled that he fell back on the ground, that’s when I spitted out the mirror piece.

I could see that Link was still shocked by what was happening so I just backed away to let him have some space, that’s when Midna came out of his shadow with the same expression as him.

“This… is…. surprising.” She said while looking at me, she then started to go into a fight stance when she saw the baby spiders starting to rush for them but before they could attack them I growled making the spiders stop and retreat.

“It’s…. not attacking us?” She said while staring in shock at the retreating baby spiders, she then turned to me and fly towards me, when she was in front of me, she started to put her hand on top of me and because I didn’t want to be patted, I blowed her away with enough force to only send her flying into Link who fell back again just after getting up.

‘Tsk tsk tsk! It’s very funny!” She said while flying up again, she then picked up the mirror on the ground and looked at me.

“Thanks.” She said before going in the center of the room and summoning the teleportation spot or whatever. I suddenly wanted to throw up again and what I spitted out this time was a full heart container, Link looked quite pleased with that and came to pick it up, he turned to me and nodded before going to Midna.

“Goodbye.” I said before both of them could respond as they were already starting to teleport out of the Temple.

Curious about their reaction, I started to focus my hearing to out of the Temple itself and soon enough, I picked up the sound of the teleportation.

“What the hell? The spider could actually talk?” I heard Midna say, it’s love seeing or hearing the reaction of people.

“At least it was nice enough to give us the mirror piece as well as a heart container.” She said and I could hear Link grunting in joy, what the hell is his problem? I didn’t even know that you could grunt in joy.

“Let’s not waste time! We need to find the other pieces.” She said before I heard the sound of her going into Link’s shadow.

After that I stopped eavesdropping on them and I started to think about what to do now, that’s when I noticed that Midna’s teleportation spot didn’t vanish, so I started to walk towards it with the kids on my back and when I was on top of it, the thing grew larger to match my size, then I started to fade away.

FlashBack end

That’s what happened and now I’m in the Everfree Forest, how do I know it’s not like any other forest? Because up until now, ten Timberwolves, three manticores, two cockatrice and one hydra attacked me, and no I didn’t beat them, it was the kids who did it, they just had to bite one time and that’s it, the opponent is dead, now my theory is that me and the kids developed a highly and deadly poisonous venom.

And the kids were hungry compared to me so they ate up everything that attacked us, when I mean everything I mean EVERYTHING, also, they built a nest underground big enough to fit me in, in short, I didn’t do anything since coming to Equestria besides walking and sleeping.

That’s when I decided to take a stroll in the Everfree Forest without the kids and I immediately regretted this decision, not the one without the kids, but taking a stroll in the Everfree Forest because that’s when I noticed how huge I was, I mean I was bigger than a hydra, and that’s also when I noticed how useful it was to be unbreakable because my legs would destroy everything in their paths meaning that the trees weren’t blocking me.

I also switched into night vision with my hearing and smell enhanced because it was night and I didn’t like surprise attack.

After a while of walking around the forest, I heard cries and sobs and I could also sense a light smell of blood meaning that someone or somepony was in danger, I started to walk faster towards the direction of the cries, I didn’t run because I was already fast enough to get here, what I saw was cliché over 9000, there was Fluttershy crying on the ground with a wounded hoof with four Timberwolves growling at her, I guess it’s time for me to be a hero…

So I jumped on the Timberwolves because I honestly thought that my weight alone would crush them, which it did, I also closed my big eye to not scare Fluttershy too much because I knew that she would take me like an animal so until she does, I proceeded to clean the Timberwolves lifeless corpses.

When I finished, I turned back to stare at Fluttershy but before she could say anything, I picked her up and placed her on the spot where my closed big eye is and I started to rush to Fluttershy’s cottage while making sure that she doesn’t fall of or that the branch in the way doesn’t hit her, how do I know where her cottage is? I could tell thanks to the smell that Fluttershy left behind her way here.

It’s not even been a minute that I could see Fluttershy’s cottage between the woods so I started to slow down a little so to not alarm the animals, when I came out of the forest, I quickly went towards Fluttershy’s cottage and I knocked on her door, when it opened, I saw Angel bunny looking at me full of fear, I put one of my legs on the door so he couldn’t close it and I used another leg to pick up the unconscious Fluttershy from my back and I put her on the ground just in front of the door.

I started to make some thick web from my mouth and I putted it on Fluttershy’s injured hoof, I don’t really know how I made the web but I knew it wasn’t infected or anything, I just know it.

When I was done, I started to walk away leaving Fluttershy in her animals care, the animals themselves started to come out of their hiding when they saw that I tried to heal Fluttershy’s wound, I even saw some of her spiders bow to me, or did some sort of a bow before going to help Fluttershy.

“Tell her to not go in the Forest without somepony else.” I said before going back to the nest which shocked some of the animals before they all nodded while the spiders saluted me, I guess I’m some sort of a King to the spiders here.

“Let’s see what happens tomorrow.”

Author's Note

Here's a new story, I was inspired when I played Twilight Princess not long ago and here is a gamer turned Armogohma for the readers!

Hope you liked the chapter!

Nightmare Moon's return

“So it’s not a dream huh?” I said while I woke up in the nest, I already suspected it to not be a dream but I didn’t expect that reality could strike you this hard.

Any normal person would panic right? Not me, I’ve been through Internet in my previous life and I built up such an ego that any weakness shown would be a shame to me, even if there’s no witness, and also because I’m quite fond of spiders thanks to Ocarina of Time Gohma and skulltulas.

Now as to what I am going to do now? I don’t even know but I know that I will at some point meet Fluttershy again, the only thing I need is a chill life with my little kids, urgh, even thinking about it is giving me chills.

But I know I’ll quickly get bored and the little spiders can survive themselves, I mean I just woke up and I already see them eating manticores while using the Timberwolves as walls for the nest.

“Don’t leave the nest” I told them before leaving the nest, I don’t plan to come back and see corpses of whatever is in this forest laying around the nest, there’s already the bones of the previous victims doing that job.

For now I’ll just take a stroll again even if it’s only in the middle of the day judging by the current position of the sun and if the cliché happens again then why not? Also this might be a good way to familiarize with the Forest.

If this goes on I might go mad because there’s no purpose in my current life, I mean the only thing I need to do is close my big eye and that’s it, I can’t be killed, but I still need to be careful with the Princesses or the Elements of Harmony because friendship canon is seriously no joke.

Now that I look around the Forest, I feel bad for the trees I’m breaking because the Forest is surprisingly beautiful even if everything looks the same.

I could see that I was going towards the Castle of the two sisters because the trees started to clear away, because I have nothing to do then might as well take a look around the ruined castle, at least the front doors are big enough for me to enter.

The inside of the Castle was just like how it was in the first episode of MLP, what I mean is that the Elements of Harmony were at the same spot they were before the main 6 discovered them, now because I didn’t want to break the timeline or even the show itself, I slowly started to avoid touching them before proceeding into the other rooms.

The Castle itself was surprisingly able to not fall with all these cracks and rumbles but just to make sure that I don’t accidentally destroy the castle I started to make some webs.

I generally knew the function behind web making as it is acting like my saliva meaning that I can produce them just by spitting on my fangs, these fangs act like my arms because they’re easy to move around, just like normal arms.

I always had my eyes looking out of the windows to see the sky while I made the webs to cover the cracks and weak spots of the castle because I wouldn’t want to be around when Nightmare Moon and Twilight fights, I genuinely like the show and if I can see it IRL then that’s better.

That’s when I thought about something dangerous but exciting, what is the point of seeing a show if you’re not on the front? So going by that logic, I started to climb the walls in the room where Twilight and Nightmare Moon would fight while making sure that I wouldn’t be seen on the roof, now I just need to wait.

Third Person’s POV

Ponyville, Fluttershy’s cottage, 6 hours before the incident.

Fluttershy was currently feeding her animals while thinking about what her little friends told her about when she woke up this morning.

Flashback

It was early in the morning and every single animals in Fluttershy’s cottage were looking after her.

Every single one of them witnessed the unbelievable thing that happened yesterday night. An hour after their beloved master told them to wait for her while she goes in the Forest to check on her more wild friends, an unknown beast that was obviously a huge spider came out of the Forest and it immediately went to Fluttershy’s home but what they didn’t expect is for it to bring down their unconscious Master, while doing so, the humongous spider put some web on the injured hoof of their Master before going back to the Forest.

While going back to the Forest, it told them to tell their Master to be careful next time she goes in the Forest, the spiders, seeing this Alpha among Alphas immediately saluted it on instinct, none of them knew the reason why they saluted it, they just did it,on instinct and every animals knew that instinct was the reason they could still live, so they titled this mythical spider their Emperor as it could make their instinct react so much that the spiders were saluting it.

When it was out of their field of vision, all the animals proceeded to take care of the poor unconscious pony that was their Master, some of them were glad that they could repay their debt to her while others were happy that this new friend brought them their master back.

A whole night of sleep was able to make Fluttershy recover, only those who stayed beside her the whole night knew how it was possible as they saw the web that their new friend put on Fluttershy’s injured hoof glow and become part of Fluttershy herself, the web not only healed her wound but it also added some kind of protection over the hoof.

Every animals were overjoyed to see their master healed and waking up, she was very confused as to what happened and what was happening but she knew that she felt comfortable being hugged by all her little friends.

After this group hug, Fluttershy questioned her animals as to what happened and was shocked to know that a huge spider brought her back to her home as well as healing her in the process.

After making sure that she was alright, she proceeded to feed her little friends while thinking about the extraordinary event that happened last night.

Flashback end

Fluttershy was thinking about many things while she fed her animals but it was mainly about her mysterious saviour, she of course got a general idea of what it was thanks to the description she was given by her little friends but she didn’t know what kind of spider could match the size described by her friends and less about one that could heal with its web.

“Oh right! We need to practice for the Summer Sun Celebrations!” She exclaimed before hastily preparing for the event.

“Um… Can all the hummingbird come with me? At least those that can sing.” She asked and multiple hummingbird started to fly to her.

“Ok, please wait here until tonight.” She finally said to her animals before going to her usual spot of training where there would be nopony around to see her.

Third Person’s POV

Town Hall, 54 minutes before the incident

Twilight Sparkle managed to make sure all the preparations were done for the Summer Sun Celebration, all that is left now is for Princess Celestia to raise the sun.

Everypony were excited by this event, each and every individual put their best effort at making this party the best one that ever existed, there’s even one pony who constantly inhaled and exhaled in a bag so much she is excited, you guessed it, it’s-

“SO EXCITING!!!!!” … Exactly what she said, Pinkie Pie, our forever loving party pony.

“Aww you’re too kind.” That’s what she said.

“Pinkie? Who’re you talking to?” Applejack asked the party pony.

“The narrator silly!” Don’t fourth wall break now, it’s only the second chapter.

“And that’s exactly why because I know that this is the most successful story you wrote and it went hot with only 1 chapter!” I guess I need to blush then - *Blush* -

“Hehe you’re cute.”

Applejack was slowly backing away while Pinkie Pie talked to herself hoping to not get involved into Pinkie’s craziness yet.

“And now what everypony was waiting for! Princess Celestia!” Mayor Mare said before a chorus of bird whistling could be heard as well as clapping from the ponies, but it all died down when the Princess herself didn’t come out, instead it was Rarity who had a shocked look on her face.

“She’s gone!” Rarity exclaimed officially making half of the ponies present fall in despair as they thought that their beloved rulers abandoned them, until a sinister laugh could be heard inside the Town Hall.

“ Oh my beloved subject, it’s been so long since I’ve seen your precious sun loving faces.” The entity known as Nightmare Moon said as she materialised in the place where Princess Celestia was supposed to have been.

“What did you do with our Princess?” Rainbow Dash asked ready to attack the intruder at any time, which she did before being hold down by Applejack.

“*Laughs* Why? Am I not royal enough for you? Don’t you know who I am?” The mare in the moon asked the terrified ponies in front of her.

Pinkie Pie, being Pinkie Pie, started to play ‘guess’ with Nightmare Moon which unnerved Applejack who once again saved one of her friends from being obliterated.

“Does my crown no longer count now that I’ve been imprisoned for a thousand years? Did you not recall the legend? DId you not see the signs?” The malicious Alicorn asked each pony at a time before being cut by Twilight Sparkle.

“I did. And I know who you are. You’re the Mare in the Moon! Nightmare Moon!” She said full of courage and determination.

“Well well well. Somepony who remembers me, then you also know why I’m here?” The mare now identified as Nightmare Moon asked, obviously glad that somepony remembers her.

“You’re here to…. to.” Twilight couldn’t say the end of her sentence as she was too terrified to state the reason that Nightmare Moon is here.

“*Laughs* Remember this day little ponies for it was your last. From this moment forth, the night, will last, FOREVER!” The corrupted royal said before laughing maliciously at the despair in the heart of the ponies present.

Meanwhile, in the Castle of the Two Sisters

The mystical arachnid was currently asleep as it has been hours he’s been waiting. He was surprisingly not uncomfortable sleeping on the roof even if it would be called ‘sleeping while standing up’.

But he was brutally awakened because his ears were hurting from the malicious laugh made by Nightmare Moon.

“Guess that’s my queue for phase two.” He said while moving around on the roof to cover up any other weak parts of the Castle that may threatened it to crumble.

Phase two, as he said, consisted for him to calculate the perfect spot to be both undetected as well as the spot to have the best view for the upcoming event and the reason for why he was repairing the Castle is because he doesn’t trust his current weight and thinks that the Castle would fall apart because of him.

Phase two would start after Nightmare Moon’s laugh because it is when the moon would stop moving in the sky, meaning that the shadows in the Castle would not move a single bit, meaning that if he found the perfect spot, then this perfect spot would stay here until Nightmare Moon’s defeat.

“A very calculated plan if I do say so myself.” He said proudly to himself while looking for the perfect spot.

He finally found the perfect spot as it was both hidden in the shadows as well as having a perfect view over the whole room, but to make sure, he covered himself and his surroundings with webs in such a way that he would blend perfectly with the ruined Castle.

“Now I just need to wait again.” He said before going to sleep again, he made sure that his hearing was focused on Twilight Sparkle so that even if he was sleeping, he could have a general idea of what’s going on.

Time skip : 2 hours, in the Everfree Forest, near the Castle of the Two Sisters.

“I’ll never leave my friends hanging!” RD said proudly.

They were finally at the Castle of the Two Sisters and they were surprisingly not that tired even after all they went through.

“Hey, don’t you find the path where there’s trees laying around weird?” RD asked Twilight.

“It’s not the time for that, it’s the first time we’ve been in the Forest so it’s maybe one of the many beast living here.” Twilight stated before walking forward.

“But still, the path is leading to he-” RD couldn’t finish as she was cut by Applejack.

“Wow. Come on Twilight! ‘snt this what you’ve been waitin’ for?” Applejack asked while admiring the ancient stones lying on a pedestal.

“The Elements of Harmony.” Twilight stated while looking at the rusted stones.

Each of them started to pick an Element each to bring them in front of Twilight.

“One, two, three, four… There’s only five.” Pinkie stated worrying all the other ponies.

“Where’s the sixth?” RD asked while looking around the room.

“The book said ‘When the five are present, a sparkle cause the sixth Element to be revealed.” Twilight said while analysing the five stones.

“What in the hay is that supposed to mean?” Applejack asked confusingly looking at Twilight.

“I’m not sure, but I have an idea. Stand back, I don’t know what will happen.” Twilight said before casting a spell in the middle of the five stones.

“Come on y’all, she needs to concentrate.” Applejack asked while leaving Twilight with the others.

Meanwhile

Our big spider slowly woke up after hearing what Applejack said, he did not want to alarm anypony by brutally waking up.

‘Soon, soon…’ He thought while trying not to break his cover from excitement, he knew that Nightmare Moon is close by, he could tell by the temperature constantly shifting around the Castle.

*Boom*

‘Here it is!’ He thought as he watched the show’s premiere unfold before him.

Nightmare Moon was laughing as the Elements of Harmony were flying around her, her intimidating stature is starting to scare Twilight, but not for long as she started to prepare a charge.

“You’re kidding, you’re kidding right?” Nightmare Moon asked, surprised to see a pony stand against her.

Twilight had her horn glowing while she charged at Nightmare Moon, who herself charged back at Twilight.

The glow on Twilight’s horn is growing as their distance closes until she teleports right before Nightmare Moon could tackle her.

“Just one spark.” Twilight desperately said as she started to make a spark on her horn in the middle of the Elements, Nightmare Moon, knowing what Twilight was doing, teleported in front of her and immediately shattered the stones.

Seeing this, Twilight started to fall into despair until her friends came running after her successfully making the spark needed to have the sixth Elements.

Timeskip (Because I didn’t feel like detailing ‘The Spark’)

‘Excellent! *click* nice.’ The spectator who saw it all thought.

The main six were currently lying unconscious on the ground and they slowly woke up one by one.

“Ugh… My head.” RD complained while rubbing her aching head.

“Everypony okay?” Applejack asked while looking for any casualties.

“Oh thank goodness!” Rarity exclaimed while admiring her tail.

“Wow Rarity, it’s so lovely!” Fluttershy complimented.

“Oh I know, I’ll never part away with it again.” Rarity said before caressing her tail.

“No, your necklace, it looks just like your cutie mark.” Fluttershy stated while pointing at Rarity’s cutie mark.

“So does yours!” Rarity replied.

“Gee’ Twilight, I thought you were spouting a lot of hoee. But I reckon we do really represent the Elements of Friendship!” Applejack said to Twilight.

“Indeed you do.” Came a warming voice, every’being’ looked out of the window to see the sun rising up in the sky as well as a light ball coming out of it.

When the ball touched the ground, it revealed to be Princess Celestia herself, making all the ponies present bow to her.

‘I’m gonna get caught, my perfect spot is not protected by the shadows anymore, I need to think of a way to introduce myself.’ The Arachnid Emperor thought as well as noticing that he didn’t came up with a name yet.

“Princess Celestia!” Twilight exclaimed before hugging her mentor.

“Twilight Sparkle! My faithful student.” Princess Celestia replied.

“I knew you could do it.” She continued making Twilight confused.

“But, you told me it was an old pony tale.” Twilight said more confused than ever.

“I told you that you needed to make some friends, not anymore.” Celestia replied.

“I saw the signs of Nightmare Moon’s return and I knew it was you who had the magic inside to defeat her, but you couldn’t unleash it until you let true friendship into your heart.” Celestia explained.

“Now if only another one will as well. Princess Luna.” She called as she looked towards the defenseless Alicorn lying on the ground.

“It has been a thousand years since I’ve seen you like this.” She continued while walking towards her.

“Time to put our differences aside, we were meant to rule together, little sister.” She explained.

“Will you accept my friendship?”

Arcno’s POV

‘That’s it! Since I’m a spider then let’s go for Arcno! Arcno the Arachnid Emperor!’ I finally thought of a name before I started breaking through my webs.

“Will you accept my friendship?” I heard Celestia ask to Luna, how lovely.

‘Soon, soon!’

Author's Note

Yes I know you love me.

Also if I messed up the intro then sorry, you'll have to deal with it because I honestly don't have the courage or energy to rewrite it.

And for the rest of the story plot then rip, I'll just go write with what I have in mind but I'm 83% sure that I'll include at least the intro or finale of each seasons.

For the name please don't judge, I thought about it on the spot and I don't plan to change it.

I hope you liked the chapter!

Webs Fluttering

Third Person’s POV

Castle of the Two Sisters

“Will you accept my friendship?” Celestia asked her beloved little sister who immediately hugged her.

“I’m sorry sister!” Luna cried.

While this was happening, Fluttershy was inspecting the Castle as something picked her interest.

‘These webs… They’re the same as the one placed on my hoof.’ She thought as she started to inspect the said web that were all around the ruined Castle.

‘Not only is it the same kind of web, it is a web covering all the weak spot of the Castle.’ She analysed, an attitude that was caught by Arcno who immediately changed his plans.

‘Fluttershy will do, at least I’m sure I won’t be blasted with her.’ He thought as he stopped breaking through his webs to wait for the perfect moment.

“Are you alright Flutters?” Asked RD who noticed the look that Fluttershy had on her face, the only look when she perfectly looked composed.

“Oh… yes.” She replied while looking at the many webs around the ruins, something that RD noticed as she started to look where Fluttershy was looking.

“What’s up with the webs?” RD asked loud enough for the others to hear.

“Now that you say that.” Twilight said while inspecting an unnaturally big group of web on the roof, something that would look like a cocoon.

“Fluttershy, do you know what this is?” Rarity asked in disgust at the webs covering the many cracks of the wall.

“Maybe some spiders inhabit the Castle, well a lot of spiders.” Fluttershy stated as she looked at the webs, she knew that it wasn’t a pack of spiders as none of them could produce so much web of this quality.

“Come my little ponies, there’s a celebration we need to finish.” Celestia said while going out of the room, all the other ponies smiled and followed her, well some of them did as only one of them stayed behind, hypnotised by the webs.

“What kind of spider could make such a web?” Fluttershy asked full of curiosity, and the spider himself turned the green light at this question.

“Mine.” He said on instinct, something he didn’t regret as it was what he intended.

“Who’s there?” Fluttershy asked while looking around to see where the voice came from.

She then started to noticed the cocoon like web hanging on the ceiling, curious of what it might be, she slowly flew to it until she backed away when she saw that the web started to move more and more.

After a while, spider legs with unknown markings sprouted from the cocoon like web, then, the back of a tarantula could be seen starting to come out and finally, the front body of a spider could be seen with four emerald eyes looking straight at Fluttershy.

The spider then jumped and landed on the ground in front of Fluttershy who was frozen in fear, not from the spider itself but from the size of it which was comparable to a hydra, something she was very afraid of.

“You… were here the whole time?” Fluttershy asked finally composing herself, she was now more curious than ever of this mythical spider that had relics marked on it’s entire body.

“Yes.” it responded which shocked Fluttershy as it was the first animal who spoke to her, she of course talked with animals but it was the first time an animal talked like a pony.

“Oh my goodness you can talk!” Fluttershy had now curiosity overload as she was literally flying around the massive spider as fast as RD.

It was then that Fluttershy realised something.

“The webs, did you make them?” She asked the huge spider.

“Yes.” it replied to her who then launched herself at the spider to hug it.

“Thank you for saving me!” She exclaimed while hugging the giant who itself didn’t mind the hug at all, in fact he liked it.

“No problem.” He said.

“Oh excuse me, I’m Fluttershy, do you have a name?” She asked breaking the hug in embarrassment.

“I am Arcno, the Arachnid Emperor.” He said in the same royal way as the Princess Celestia herself.

‘R-royalty? No, from an Imperial family? If I remember correctly, Emperors have higher powers than Royalty!’ She thought in shock as she started to bow in front of the Imperial animal.

“P-please excuse me from my rudeness.” She said shyly, unable to look in those emerald eyes.

“Do not mind, my kingdom is in ruin anyways.” Arcno replied, it was true as his ‘kingdom’ as he said was the Temple of Time, which was in ruin in the present time.

“Oh.” Fluttershy said in shock, she felt pity for the poor spider who lost his home, then it also explained why her spider friends were acting weird like soldiers when she woke up yesterday.

“Please do not alert your friends, I doubt I’ll be accepted yet.” He said in sadness, well he kind of faked his sadness as he really didn’t care much.

“But… ok, but you can come to my home if you want to.” Fluttershy said which was replied by a nod from the imperial spider.

“Now weren’t you supposed to go celebrate?” Arcno asked which quickly made Fluttershy remember that she would be late at this point.

“Oh no! I’ll be late!” She exclaimed while panicking around the room, Arcno just sighed and picked Fluttershy to place her on his back.

“Hold tight.” He said and Fluttershy immediately did so.

Arcno then started to go through one of the windows that was big enough to fit him through, after that, Fluttershy was surprised to not fall to gravity as Arcno was walking on the outer wall of the Castle making her wonder of he was able to control gravity itself.

After walking back on the ground, Arcno started to run at a surprising speed even for his size, Fluttershy was,lucky that Arcno’s back was fluffy and that it was supporting her, she noticed that some of Arcno’s legs was breaking any branch that would threaten her which made her smile.

After a while of rushing through the Forest, Fluttershy started to see the borders of the Forest then Arcno slowly stopped before the outskirt of the forest and put Fluttershy on the ground.

“Go.” He said to her which saddened her a little that her friend and saviour wouldn’t come to the celebration with her, but she understood that not many would accept a spider, and that nopony would accept him, yet.

“Goodbye.” Fluttershy said as Arcno waved her goodbye before he vanished in the vast Forest that was the Everfree Forest.

“Fluttershy! Where were you?” Applejack asked while running towards Fluttershy with the others.

“Hey Flutters!” RD said while hugging at Fluttershy.

“Come on darling, the party is not over!” Rarity said while at the same having tons of confetis coming at her from out of nowhere.

“No it isn’t!” Pinkie exclaimed.

Meanwhile, Everfree Forest.

‘That went better than expected’ Arcno thought as he went through the Forest to go back to the nest, he was thinking of how anyone could die of a heart attack just from being hugged by Fluttershy, something that nearly happened to him.

‘Now I’m cringing because of my title, Arachnid Emperor? What the hell?’ He thought after remembering his introductions, intro he did while copying Celestia, he felt so bad from telling her that.

He arrived at the nest after thinking about what happened until now.

When he looked inside the nest, he was surprised to see the kid’s molt laying on the ground with the kids themselves bigger and more terrifying now, they passed from baby gohmas to young gohmas, a bigger version with bigger everything.

When they saw Arcno, they all started to run towards him and cuddle him while others climbed on top of him.

‘Kids are still kids.’ He thought before playing with the little spiders.

‘I can’t wait for the next time we meet Fluttershy.’ He thought as he played with the kids.

Meanwhile, unknown location

“My queen, we captured a beast from the Everfree Forest.” A soldier reported before bringing in a spider looking beast with one big eye, it was as big as a young pony.

“Perfect” An intimidating voice said before revealing as being Chrysalis, Queen of the changelings.

“Fall under my rule beast.” She chanted before casting a spell on the young gohma, completely turning it into her servant.

“Hahahaha! Soon Celestia, Soon.”

Yep, I finally found a bad guy for this story, I hope chryssy is enough for you guys until next villain comes in, even if it's normally Discord after Nightmare Moon but because the timeline is kind of broken now then I made chryssy before Discord.

Hope you like the chapter!

Premonition

Third Person’s POV

Everfree Forest, The Nest

Arcno, unlike the other days, is currently bothered by something. ‘One of the kids is missing’ He thought as he stared at the playing childs in front of him.

It has been a week since Nightmare Moon’s defeat and all he did during that time was playing with the kids and taking strolls in the Everfree Forest.

He would normally have lost his mind from boredom until recently when he noticed a missing member of his ‘family’.

He wouldn’t normally care so much about these young gohma as he is a human inside, but he still felt responsible over them since he technically gave birth to them, a maternal instinct he may have developed after his sudden change to an arachnid.

He may have acquired, or more accurately self proclaimed himself as ‘Arachnid Emperor’ but he is still a human inside despite his current powers so he didn’t really know what to do about it.

But for now he was only concerned about one thing, finding his lost child. He already investigated in the matter by trailing the smell left by the child but he didn’t expect the trail itself to end in the middle of the forest, it was as if they just disappeared.

He already theorised that the child was kidnapped and that the kidnapper(s) could teleport away, meaning that they could use magic.

With the knowledge he had about Equestria, he came up with three conclusion :

1- The kidnapper(s) were highly trained ponies, explaining why he didn’t smell anything near the one of his child.

2- The child itself has somehow lost itself in the forest before being captured and afterward being teleported away.

3- The child just disappeared from existence.

The second and third conclusions were a bit far stretched, no all of these conclusions were far stretched as none of them didn’t really made sense but it didn’t surprise Arcno as he didn’t plan/predict this much since the last time he played chess, which was a long time ago.

But for now he didn’t care and just shrugged the conclusions off as he was certain of something.

The child was gone.

Being himself very selfish and carefree, he would just think nothing of it but not here, the reason behind that cautiousness is because he knew that mistakes in another world can mean the end of the world in his world.

He knew from the countless “High IQ Anime”, as he called them, that a simple slip up can seriously cause troubles, and what is the slip up here? It’s the fact that he let one of his heir disappear, why? Because as he learned from these “High IQ Anime”, unknown is the greatest weapon, and now he just lost one of the beings extremely related to him, meaning that if the child was captured, then this means that he can be red like a book.

He is sure that his species, which is known as Gohma, is unknown in this world so if one of his own descendant gets captured, then that means those who captured his descendant would have information about him and his species, and information is the strongest weapon he knows, why? Because humans made a nuke because of informations.

Paranoia is a very valuable thing when against unknown, it is one of the thing that was able to keep Ainz Ooal Gown being the strongest guild in Yggdrasil after all.

So now Arcno was having a headache as he didn’t think so much for a while and he seriously intended to go on a stroll again.

Ponyville, Fluttershy’s cottage

It has been a while since Fluttershy has not seen Arcno again, a whole week passed by without her noticing it as the week itself wasn’t very eventful besides the fact that she and all her friends got tickets to go to the Grand Galloping Gala.

But everything else didn’t matter to her as all she thought about this last week was the behemoth she met at the Castle of the Two Sisters.

She had questions about anything and everything about that mysterious entity.

She remembered being shocked by the fact that the behemoth himself was known to be of Imperial Blood. Empress and Emperor were words not very known by the ponies of Equestria but Fluttershy knew what they mean.

She knew that they had more power than royalty, it is said that their charisma is overwhelming even for royalty, she didn’t know why the term itself existed but only knew how.

Words are things to describe the world, and a word that describes something can only be created if somepony has witnessed the thing itself, meaning that Emperors existed at a time in Equestria, but she didn’t know when.

She couldn’t even imagine a being superior to the Princesses as they moved the Celestial Bodies, it was unthinkable, and yet the word existed meaning that beings more powerful than the Princesses once existed.

This only raised more questioned in the mind of Fluttershy like, how powerful must the behemoth be to have Imperial blood in it? How old would the beast be as Emperor’s era was not even known to the Princesses?

She could definitely see that Arcno was very ancient, she only had to see the strange language inscribed on the body of the Arachnid.

Now that she thought about it, the body itself felt weird to her when she rode onto Arcno’s body, she also felt something weird with the bulge in the middle of the spider’s front body, like it was an eye socket.

No, she had to think straight, it was still morning and she needed to go buy food for her little friends.

Canterlot Castle, Throne Room

“That’s why we should lower the taxes on the commoners so they could bring more result from their work.” A nobleman stated in front of his ruler.

Celestia was currently doing her everyday routine, but she was more happy and acceptable towards the request of the ponies, the reason being Luna who recently came back.

At first, the ponies were very skeptical about her, but over time they started to accept her, Celestia who was a witness of this became overjoyed and oozed happiness.

This actually pleased the ponies as they were always grateful for the Princess’s deeds so seeing her make a true smile made the ponies happier.

Everything went wonderful in Celestia’s eyes so as the nobleman finished his request, she smiled at him and agreed on the request before dismissing him.

She didn’t let emotions overwrite her work but it didn’t hurt for her to show happiness even if she rejected a request as nothing could make her worried.

Or at least it should’ve been until she found in the huge pile of paper on her desk reports saying that there were sights of black flying things the size of a pony roaming the city at night.

Now this made her really worried as she knew what those black things were, she knew too well…

Unknown Location

“My queen, the spies have returned.” One of the insectoid pony said to it’s queen.

“Good, report.” She ordered in her signature voice.

“The beast we have captured has calmed down but is still resistant, a few were injured by its attempts to free itself.” The drone reported which made Chrysalis angry.

“Find a way to submit this mindless beast! We don’t have much time and if you fail you will be severely punished.” She said obviously mad at her failed attempts to subdue the beast.

The beast itself resisted the spell she casted on it a week ago, but all of her attempts to submit it to her failed miserably.

The beast itself shocked her as she never encountered it before, but she was certain that it held great powers that are unknown to her, the only problem was how to make it so it attacks everything but not the changelings? She had to experiment on this matter as her drones were too dumb to understand anything she did in her spare time.

For now she had to wait until she found a way to make the spider her servant, the simple fact of its existence brought a feeling she haven’t felt before, it was bloodlust, no it was not a normal bloodlust against a being you hate, it’s a bloodlust against a being opposite to your very self, it was like a rival but she didn’t care for that, she wanted it to destroy Canterlot and make the beast serve her with all its might.

But before that, she needed to find a way to subdue it.

Everfree Forest, Unknown Location

Something in this part of the Forest felt incredibly wrong, the Forest itself didn’t felt like a Forest at all, it certainly looked like the Everfree Forest but it didn’t feel like it.

The feeling the Everfree Forest normally gives off is the feeling of nature and it’s wilderness, but this part of the Forest didn’t, it felt like Poison, a Venom draining the life out of everything, a feeling of despair would fall on you and you would immediately start to think that the Forest itself would eat you, which it would do as this phenomenon is the cause of a very gluttonous plant.

Yes, this part of the Forest is ruled by a carnivorous plant, but it’s not any carnivorous plant, it’s one that can plague a whole Forest with a purple liquid, a purple of death, how can a plant do this? It’s simple, it was infected by Twilight.

Author's Note

That's the last chapter until I don't know how long (because school).

Also that's just a little chapter to tell the basics of the future events and till I don't know how much time I won't be posting chapters, I won't put the story on hiatus because I'm still inspired by it, I'll just post chapter bust less often.

Hope you like it!

Also, the critics I got from pretty much everyone hits so hard onto my poor young mind, but thanks anyway for the advices and "must change" comments, especially Warrior Kitten who pretty much pointed out every flaws of the story and how I write which was pretty much everything, also thanks to you I'll seriously write now (not that I didn't but I really needed someone to push me further from where I am now.)
