The New Overlords are... Ponies!?

Gnarl made his way through the Tower (More like a castle, really) to its lowest depth. As much as the previous Overlord had been flaunting his wealth, the Tower was quite deep indeed. And though it had fallen to ruin without His influence, the different section of the castle crumbling and most of the other Minions leaving, it was still a fair distance.

Most of that was about to change.

Tiredly, Gnarl grumbled, "I'm too old for this." as he walked the last hallway.

At the end was a summoning circle. the remaining Blues were putting the finishing touches on the circle they were making.

"Is it ready?" Gnarl asked, curtly.

"Yes, sir." was the reply. "We're almost finished now. It should be just about perfect."

"Good. Let's find our new Overlord before more of this place crumbles to dust." Gnarl said. "Let's get on with it!"

The Blues started channeling their magic into the ritual. Most of them were perfectly fine with the possibility that the ritual would consume them too.

They began to chant in an ancient language, long forgotten to most species. In the middle of the room, a glowing portal appeared, letting off sparks of red and violet energy.

At length, the magic died down.

In the middle of the circle lay a pair of what appeared to be....

Gnarl frowned and glared at one of the Blues. "Davik? Did you get the spell right? Did it miscast?"

The one questioned quickly examined the circle's runic writing. At length, he stood. "Malek? Weren't you doing this portion?"

The Blue being asked replied, "Yes. Why?"

"Why, then, is it that when it's supposed to say "a pale horse" it says "A PAIR of HORSES"?!" Davik seethed.

"That's PONY!"

Suddenly, what appeared to be a mace of pure orange energy knocked Davik to the side of the room, cracking the wall.

All looked back to the center of the circle. One of the two small horses -Ponies- was up. Her horn was glowing brightly, and she looked particularly peeved.

"That was for getting your translation wrong. And as for you, THIS is for WAKING ME UP!"

Suddenly, Malek was disintegrated.

Gnarl smiled. "Actually, I think we can work with this. Well done, boys."
