This Little Twisted World of Ours

Chernobog

"I appreciate the gesture and all... but it's about time!" Chernobog stood before the Mane 6, all staring daggers at each other as if it were a competition.

Twilight spoke up with a scowl. "You've had you're fun, Chernobog!" Chernobog appeared to the side of her, flicking her snout.

"Oh, but have I? I could've sworn that the fun just started. I'm hoping for some action and drama." He giggled, appearing back in front of them.

Twilight furrowed her brow. "Come on, g-" She abruptly hit the wall from an unexpected blast.

"Why, I hope you don't think I'm just gking to stand here and take it! For too long have arrogant villains and baddies just sit there and play dumb!" He cracked his knuckles, getting into his stance. "But there's a first for everything, amirite?" He took off, shaking the ground with his stomps. With a wave of his hand, palm sized balls of flame shot outwards towards the ponies. Some might've dodged them, but not all... Fluttershy and Rarity were the latter result, falling to the ground from the blasts.

Twilight gasped as she stood back up, but quickly shifted to pissed off, running towards Chernobog with an empowered beam.

Chernobog was stopped dead in his tracks, stumbling back from the magic beam. Other than that, he shook it off. Twilight was hit to the side by his hammer as if it had a mind of it's own, flying right back into Chernobog's grip.

For the first time in forever, The Princesses actually decided to do something. The two flew up and shot off their own magic beams in unison that fused into one, directed towards Chernobog.

As helpful as it sounded, Chernobog's quick thinking said otherwise. He rose the massive hammer in front of him, reflecting the beam right back at them. Of course, the two were helpless and got a taste of their own medicine, falling to the ground. The others, whom tended to Fluttershy and Rarity, quickly caught on to the fact that the Princesses were down now and rushed towards them.

Chernobog rolled his eyes. "So... this... this is all you give me? Your frantic reactions as if you've never experienced this before?"

Twilight stared down at the two princesses with a frown, before glaring at him. "I've had enough of you." Full of emotions, Twilight lunged upwards and shot off a massive beam that caught Chernobog off guard, engulfing him in the beam.

Chernobog roughly skidded across the ground, growling at the burning pain. He wiped his cheek, ridding away the blood. "A drop of blood? I'd be sarcastic if I weren't slightly IMPRESSED!" He fired off his own crimson beam that was twice her size, destroying the castle entirely and cracked the ground beneath them.

You'd probably think it was over at that point, but it wasn't. They were all safe and sound under a clearly overpowered shield. Godfell stood in front of them all with his hand out that put up the shield. "I might not be in the fight, but I still have an oath. I'm not allowing you to die even if it means sacrificing myself!"

Chernobog growled under his breath and put more power into the beam, eventually absorbing the shield in it's size, but even so, it had no effect. The shield Godfell casted stood it's ground, not even cracking the slightest.

"Ugh, you're denying a Demon some real fun here! I can't believe you colorful ponies fell for him and his deceiving ass!" He dropped the beam and stood tall.

After the beam was dropped, the shield soon followed, Godfell lowering his hand. "It's not like you can offer anything better." He clasped his hands together, grinning behind his helmet before facing the Mane 6. "This isn't like any villain you've faced. You're going to have to stand up for yourselves. Sometimes all that's needed is a little hope..."

The Mane Six smiled at him genuinely. Rainbow Dash scratched the back of her head. "I, uh... I'm sorry. I misjudged you when I shouldn't have..." Applejack nodded in agreement.

"I appreciate it. I'm sorry for being a dick. I get that way when I'm frustrated. But uh, maybe we can rejoice another time? Heh."

They switched, glaring towards Chernobog as he clenched tightly on the handle of his hammer. "I have killed thousands before the clock even struck midnight. Crushed skulls under my feet without a care. I've dominated galaxies until their doom. Sailed until every light has been distinguished. I want to live in a Universe where Light has become irrelevant. I want to become King of the Shadows. God of The New World. Legend of everyone's Nightmares. to take The Edge of the Cosmos to the moon. To break it... and smash it with an impact not seen since the beginning of time... Can anyone stop me? By the light of the fire and the burning sun I don't care what happens. After countless years as a nobody, my name is Chernobog. But speeches are for publicity. Now... is the time for action... " He raised his hammer, charging another beam before firing it directly at the Mane 6.

Twilight gritted her teeth, immediately cancelling the attack with a binding flash of light coming from her. She revealed something not seen. A transformation to say the least. Her eyes were pure white, her mane and tail flowed elegantly, her fur shined and glared.

Frozen in shock, Chernobog merely stared at the pony, trying to gather coherent thoughts on how she could've stopped such an overpowered attack. He shook himself out of it and lunged forwards at her, batting her with enough force to smash her through the walls of the barely standing castle.

Even with that much force, she had only skidded a few feet towards the wall, feeling nothing. She bared her teeth in a frown and blasted him back, making him hit the wall.

He winced in pain, but it only royally pisses him off to try harder. He further tapped into his power, a bolt of energy sparking off of him. He threw his hammer to the side and charged forwards, throwing blasts around her. The castle crumbled further as a result.

Twilight hit the ground, a burn mark appearing on her back. She slowly stood back up and charged back at the demon, blasting yet another beam filled with rage.

Chernobog scowled and blasted back, creating a stalemate between the two beams. Both beams faught back and forth, attempting to overwhelm one another but was stuck in between. The two blasted more and more energy into their attack until the clash ended in a devastating explosion, causing the castle to be blasted to bits while the others witnessing this fight were blasted back by the sheer force of the shockwave.

The dust dissipated, showing the once breathtaking castle into a now hellish warzone between two powers. The Mane 6 were nowhere to be seen, blasted away from the scene. Luckily Godfell had caught them all before they could crash land into the ground.

Godfell

Godfell gently placed the last one - Applejack - onto the ground and let out a content sigh. "Is everyone okay...?" He glanced at them all, noticing blood coming from their heads. He winced. "Nevermind..."

Fluttershy felt a burning pain on her left wing, looking at it. She noticed that most of her feathers were burned off, along with the skin under it, showing bone. She gasped in horror.

Godfell quickly tended to her grabbing a first aid kit from behind his back nonchalantly. He opened the kit up, eased the bleeding, and bandaged it. "Now, I can't promise much, but at least you won't bleed out or something." He then looked at the others to see if they had any wounds from the blast.

Luckily most of them were just bruised and bleeding slightly with burnt and disheveled manes.

He threw the aid kit away and wiped his hands. "Goodie. Now, we aren't going back there. It's way too dangerous for what it's worth."

"Well, we can't just leave Twilight out t'ere with that... creep!" Applejack objected. The others had to agree with her.

Godfell let out a groan. "I get you guys are worried, but when's the last time you've even seen her like that? You know, without the power of Friendship?"

"Uhhh-" Rainbow was cut off.

"Yeah- I didn't really think so. I'm sure she's handling this just fiiiiinnnneee. I mean, shit, she took on a giant fuckin' hammer and easily destroyed a blast that could've turned you all to ash!"

"But, she's still our friend! We can't do nothing!" Rarity responded.

Godfell shrugged. "It isn't the worst option. You could, you know... DIE!"

"If we go out, we go out together!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed confidently.

"Huh. Guess I can't convince everybody with my charming good looks, megawatt smile, and charismatic speeches."

"We can't even see your face..." Applejack muttered.

"Well it should already be a known fact! No need to see me... enough about me. If we're going back, then we're going back." He yawned, stretching.

The Mane 6, minus Twilight, regrouped and began their journey back to what is now known as Hell.

Twilight

Twilight laid on the ground, covered in her own blood and sweat. Her breath had hitched, barely capable enough of keeping her eyes open. The pain was unbearably bad. Chernobog stood over her, smiling. He hadn't even broken a sweat yet.

"Death comes to you like Life would. It's only with pain instead of joy. Even if you found a way to survive Death, or even surpass it. It will always come back to bite you in the ass. That is what I represent. I'm no Demon. I'm no Angel. I'm a God. The God that you should fear. The God that can bring us back to nothing with a snap of my fingers. ...I just hope you're not the type to stay still."
