Rainbow Dash woke suddenly in a pool of her own sweat, with some of her hair that had fallen out due to stress, this had been happening a lot, every night after the changeling attack. She knew if tis continued she would be bald and to tired to fly, so she decided out loud, “I guess tomorrow I will get help, but where.” Most of her friends were out of the question, Applejack would tease her, Rarity would faint at her bald patches, Fluttershy would get nightmares to if she told her, and Pinky would say some nonsense like, “your having nightmares again, this is like every fanfic, just don’t stab me this time, I know lets have a party!” Twilight on the other hand maybe of some help, with an entire library at her disposal, “I’ll go now, who needs day light, when you’re too tired to see anyway” she exclaimed and headed out into the night. Deciding now was as good a time as any, Rainbow Dash smashed through Twilight’s window scaring the still studying mare half to death. “Rainbow Dash why can’t you use a door, and why are you hear so late at night?” the purple mare trailed of now looking more concerned than mad. “Well I, have been having nightmares,” noticing Twilights now rather annoyed face she continued “but they continue in the day too, it’s like somepony is commanding me to do things I don’t want.” This caught Twilight’s attention. “Oh when did they start?” asked the librarian curiously. “A little after the changeling attack, maybe I just hit my head” the rainbow mare offered. “Maybe but I’d like to take a look-“ a loud clanging bell cut of Twilight mid sentence. “Darn humans, and their unnecessary noise” Twilight practically screamed. Humans arrived under the banner of the U.C.o.E. United Colonies of earth, and had done a few things, set up a embassy in Canterlot, a military recruitment station in Manehattan, a university in Trotingham, and a church on the outskirts of ponyville. “Midnight mass what a ridicules idea” she continued but was abruptly cut off, by Rainbow Dash this time. “Ok I’m going,” She said looking towards the church. “the sign out front says open to all seeking advice from above. So it can’t hurt I suppose.” Twilight was shocked “Why, what they preach is not scientific!” “They say magic isn’t scientific, and they travel space like an ocean, and move planets if they don’t like the view, so it can’t be too illogical.” Twilight took this in for a moment then accepted it. “I’m coming with you then” she called out to Rainbow Dash who was already out the door. Author’s notes: It will quickly get better in the next chapter. This is my first fanfic please point out any mistakes so I can improve. You can easly contact me through my youtube channel DarkDewgong4. I will probably make a fanfic about the U.C.o.E. latter. I have other things so this may not get updated regularly. Ch. 1: Devil in a midnight massChapter one: Devil in a Midnight Mass They reached the church on a hill outside of ponyville with nothing interesting happening on the way there. Standing much taller than most trees the church’s clock tower/entrance was rather intimidating, with one last look back the two mares opened the large oak doors and headed inside. The inside of the church was large with an arched ceiling. The air was rather stale and had an unusual scent to it. Above and behind the altar was a large cross with a statue of a man on it. There was only the priest; father Montgomery, and a couple humans; apparently not even humans were too fond of midnight mass. Seeing that there were other people (or rather ponies) here tonight the priest rushed to start the mass before they could get discouraged and leave. The mass was long and unenlightening. So not awesome. Rainbow Dash thought to herself. Your wasting your time, to think any thing could save you from me, nothing can save you from me. The nightmare voice in her head taunted. Leave me alone. She thought back now rather frustrated. I cannot leave you, you cannot get rid of me, you cannot hurt me, I am a race you cannot win, a enemy you cannot beat, a nightmare you cannot wake up from, a memory you cannot forget, for I am you. The cold menacing voice told her, causing her to snap. “NO!” Rainbow Dash bellowed out a tear running down her cheek The mass was still ongoing, causing the humans to turn to her ,then each other with confused looks on their faces, and warranting a concerned look from the lavender unicorn mare next to her in the pew. When the mass was over father Montgomery announced that he would be holding private confessions tonight for anyone interested. This perked Rainbow Dash’s interest. The humans were leaving and the father went to the thing at the back of the church that looked kind of like two wooden outhouses stuck together and sat in one. “Let me guess, your going to confession, aren’t you” said Twilight in a all to I knew this would happen sort of way. To this Rainbow Dash was only able to nod on her way over. She sat in the unoccupied “stall”, and noticed that there was a bit of a grate separating the two “stalls” while the rest was solid wood. “I knew you would come, I’d have to say after what I saw tonight, you got demons,” predicting her confusion he explained; “it’s a saying we humans have, just means something’s bothering you.” Well more than just something heh heh heh. The menacing voice joked. “So what has you bothered so much kid, just tell me.” father Montgomery said trying to sound comforting. “Well when I try to sleep I have a terrible nightmare, a voice telling me to do horrible things, and during the day it’s in my head mocking and taunting me.” She confessed hoping the priest wouldn't send her to an insane asylum. “Sin is lurking at the door, it’s desirer is you, you must master it.” The priest expertly quoted, then continued, “it could be nothing but if you want I could try an exorcism, to purge the darkness from you.” He offered. Suddenly there was the sound of shattering wood. “There will be no such thing!” Somepony yelled. “Brother what are–” There was a sound like somepony getting bucked. “Bind her.” Came the unknown voice. “And lock up the old man, no one gets in our way.” Suddenly the “stall” door was thrown open and yes standing in the door way was in fact Shining Armor, now wearing a black cloak with an upside down pentagram on the back. He reached out with his magic grabbing her. “What the hay are you doing? Help!” was the last thing she said before being chained to a metal cross, and carried to the roof. Author’s notes: Thank you, for reading I’m not sure when the 3rd chapter will come out. If you have a weak stomach to gore don’t read much farther. Please comment criticism and opinions. I don’t know if I got the exact quote right so someone please inform me. Ch. 2: AwakeningChapter 2: Awakening The cult ponies, as Rainbow Dash had decided to call them, had dragged her up on to the roof and mounted her cross and her on the peak of the bell tower. She could see that they had gathered in a semicircle with Twilight’s beaten and tied up form thrown rather unceremoniously in to the center. Rainbow Dash would have said something but the way the chains on her forelegs pulled upwards on her chest made it hard for her to breath. “Why are you doing this?” Twilight managed to croak out, the statement obviously directed at her deranged brother. “Two years ago when the changelings attacked my wife died! All hope seemed lost but then the U.C.o.E. makes first contact and paints the streets of Canterlot green with their blood. Everypony was so busy making peace with the humans that not a fuck was given about my loss!” Shining Armor exclaimed. Thinking back Rainbow Dash saw that she wasn’t a very good friend her best friend’s brother’s wife had been murdered and the next day she was trying to race a F-82 ultra sonic atmospheric fighter plane. “Well that doesn’t matter now! For tonight our master will be free, and lead us to immortality!” The obviously insane stallion screamed. Call me a communist, but everyone burns before me whether they worship me or are prim and proper citizens. No the will regret crossing us and nothing will save them. The voice in her head stated. At that moment one of the cult’s Pegasie kicked a cloud sending a lightning bolt down striking the metal cross, which brunt unnaturally hot, in that moment every thing changed. Rainbow Dash awoke on the church roof having fallen from the bell tower, and right away she knew all was not right, she saw in tunnel vision, and she had a unbearable hunger. Physically she could hardly be called a pony any more, her mane and tail was now a colour shifting fire, her wings were akin to those of a dragon, she had a mouth with sharp carnivorous teeth, and two cured ram like horns coming out of the sides of her head. She got up feeling more power in her legs than ever before, and began to stalk towards the cult, however with the intense hunger the best she could do was stagger forward. “Feed master on the sacrifice we have brought you!” Shining Armor said gesturing towards Twilight. Yes feed, then slaughter them. The voice commanded. Twilight watched in horror as the now blood red eyes of what had once been her friend locked on to her. Rainbow Dash pounced and sunk her fangs into the right hind leg of a terrified Twilight Sparkle and pulled, the flesh tore, the bone popped out of the socket, and blood spattered across the roof. She would have screamed if she wasn’t so trans fixed on the sight of her friend striping flesh of the bone of her leg, and consuming it like a starved animal. Rainbow Dash turned back to Twilight now with a familiar confident smile on her face then with one flap of her massive wings she propelled herself high into the sky. Rainbow Dash flew high and fast, she impaled the cult Pegasus with her horns ripping through it’s body allowing a severed intestine to fall free, the she whipped the misfortunate creature to the ground where it made a messy splatter. Now the fun begins, release your rage! The voice in her head insisted. Before the ponies on the roof could react Rainbow Dash rained fire from her lungs burning many of the cultists. Then she plummeted down and pinned a cultist that was trying to escape down and slammed her free front hoof down on the cult pony shattering it like glass and killing it instantly. She was trying to think of where Shining Armor could have escaped to when she herd a groan. She turned to she Twilight, and she blinked, her rage cooled, the black pulsating veins of power shrank back in to her head, her eyes turned back to their natural rose colour, and her mane and tail died down from a raging inferno to something more akin to a pilot light. “Sorry Twi I lost control” she said in her normal but saddened voice. She then headed down into the church below. Farther Montgomery sat in the confession booth he had been barricaded into by the cult. Suddenly the booth door next to him opened and something sat down in it. What ever it was caused an odd multi coloured light to shine through the grate. “Father…” began Rainbow Dash as she explained the nights events. “I want to use my powers to do good please help me.” she finished. After a long pause Father Montgomery replied “as a priest it is my job to help rid the world of evil and you want to rid the world of evil so it’s my duty to help you, unblock the door and quickly hide in the crypt, the authorities will be here soon and I have a dying mare I need to try to help. How can you rid the world of evil when you are the greatest evil? The voice called out. With that said the stage was set! Author’s notes: If anyone can find or make a good picture for this fanfic it would be much appreciated. As usual point out any mistakes. Please leave a rating out of ten in the comments. I will be starting two new stories soon so keep an eye out for them. One will be a series of short stories about the U.C.o.E. The other will make pinkie pie seem normal. Ch.3: In the mean timeChapter 3: in the mean time She was having a nightmare, but now she was consumed by the demon it was much worse. “Well from the sounds of it you could have avoided all of this if you were just more sensitive to Shining Armor.” The voice joked. “Well hey I maybe I could have been better, but I hate to say it the day Cadence died was the day we got Fluttershy back, and I had been blaming myself for her disappearance so I had to be happy. Also she has killed at least twice as many as I have and she’s still the element of kindness.” Dream Rainbow Dash retorted. “I haven’t heard of any elements of loyalty attacking their friends just because she was hungry.” The voice taunted. Rainbow Dash woke up suddenly in the crypt, her hunger and tunnel vision was back in full force. She smelt meat and sure enough there was a plate of bacon on the floor near her. She ate it returning her sanity. Then she noticed the note: Rainbow Dash I left you some food since I thought you would be hungry, I’m probably doing Sunday mass right now so I left you this note. Twilight is in room 7 of the hospital and now the town is under watch from both the U.C.o.E. and your government. I heard that unicorns can teleport and you have horns now s o thought you could try it. -Father Montgomery She stared at the opposite wall, she focused and *poof she teleported, she would need a bit of practice but she allowed herself a smile. An orange Pegasus filly sat in a pew in the mass, she was just barely holding back the tears, she woke up to discover via the paper that her idol had been filly napped. She was here more so that she could morn at her hero’s last known location, than seeking guidance. When the mass was over she approached the human guarding the stairs to the roof. “What do you think happened to Rainbow Dash?” She asked hopping he would say she would be home soon and the bad people behind this would be punished. “Well they say missing because we haven’t found a body, but she was struck by lightning, while chained to that cross, and our test say it was made od magnesium and when that’s heated it burns white hot till there’s nothing left. I think the body was incinerated.” Then noticing the crushed look on the filly he added. “but I could be wrong!” *POOF Just like that Rainbow dash was in room 7 of the hospital. She gazed upon Twilight and noticed the hulking gash where her leg should have been. Ugh you should kill it I hate to see suffering I haven’t directly caused. The demonic voice suggested. Ignoring it Rainbow approached the bedside and preformed a healing spell. “Twi, wake up I want to talk to you.” Rainbow Dash said in a very soft voice. “Ah, Rainbow Dash!” the purple mare exclaimed almost screaming in shock. “ What are you doing here, please don’t hurt me.” “Relax Twi, I think I got my self under control, and I want to tell you that I want to use my powers for good and I want your help.” Rainbow said trying to calm the mare and explain the situation. “Oh and It’s room 66 of the guard house, that your brother lives in, right?” Rainbow dash asked already forming a plan. “Yes and, wait please don’t kill him!” Twilight answered realizing what her cyan friend was planning. “I just want answers, but I’m not making any promises.” And with a poof she was gone. Author’s Note’s: bout time i added a new chapter! Rather slow chapter mainly character and plot building, next time more dark stuff. Confused about Fluttershy? I will be making a (what do u call a spin-off series that bigger than the original) about all that stuff. Note any mistakes in the comments. Can someone please find me a pic to use for this cuz I can’t find 1 for the life of me. Check out my other story Red October. Season 3 tomorrow! Remember that the 11th is remembrance day. Ch. 4 Shining ArmorChapter 4: Shining Armor With a poof Rainbow Dash teleported into the room. A member of the cult was observing Shining Armor reciting some satanic prayer. Deciding that she didn’t want to lose control while confronting Shining Armor she sneaked up ripped the cult pony’s spine out and ate him (she had deduced that her self control was directly linked to her hunger). Hearing the sudden thrashing and tearing Shining Armor turned to look at Rainbow Dash with a twisted smile on his face. “So you returned master I knew you would come to your senses sooner or later.” He said calmly. “What?” Was all Rainbow Dash could think of for how weird this was. “Oh some of that Rainbow Dash lingers still. Oh well doesn’t matter now you will lead us to our day of reckoning soon enough.” He rather rudely responded. I will lead no one of this world anywhere, in fact if I had control he would be dead now. The voice said sounding rather annoyed. “Answers now tell me everything!” Rainbow Dash seethed and delivered a blow to his chest that knocked the deranged guard stallion to the ground. “Well you are foolish to think I an very significant in all this. I am but a lowly servant of the order. Go to Appleosa there you will find answers as well as figuratively speaking the light, as I have.” Shining Armor answered, enraging Rainbow Dash. She lashed out driving a forehoof through his stomach. Good now finish it! The voice ordered. “No I said to Twi I wouldn’t.” Said Rainbow Dash struggling to resist the temptation. She teleported away before her will could break. Mean while at the Ponyville Hospital Twilight Sparkle Woke to a peculiar weight on where her leg would be. She looked down to see a purple what appeared to be plastic leg in it’s place. “What is this.” Twilight exclaimed both disturbed and fascinated. Then there was a bit of shuffling in the room, and a human soldier stood up from the seat in the corner he had been sleeping in. “Oh, that is a standard fake leg typically given to amputees. You When Fluttershy heard what happened she ordered you got one. You can use it to walk, and it can be removed for greater comfort. Oh you are clear to return to your home according to Nurse Redheart.” The soldier quickly explained. “Wait I thought Fluttershy was just a medic since when was she in a position to give orders?” She wondered aloud, then noticing that the soldier was about to explain she cut him off. “You know, I don’t care I just want to go home.” As she walked through the streets of ponyville she was constantly being asked about the leg or what happened, to the latter she would answer something like, “I’m not sure myself, or I don’t want to talk about it.” However when a depressed looking Scotaloo asked about Rainbow Dash, all she said was “I wish I knew for sure.” Back in the crypt Rainbow Dash the Father and some guy in a security uniform named Matt were discussing the information she had gathered. The guy was apparently a paladin of the Vatican Order a secret society that had be secretly waging war against the Satanic Order for a couple of centuries now. “So the Satanic Order has set up an Equestrian chapter.” Father Montgomery concluded. “Check out Appleosa tomorrow, I will send Matt to make sure you don’t go off the deep end, in the meantime go see Twilight she’s out of the hospital now, and can you ask her to drop by tomorrow I wish to speak to her about her brother.” He suggested. “Ok!” and with a poof she was gone. Twilight was practicing with her replacement leg when Rainbow dash poofed in. “Yikes! Rainbow Dash you scared me, I’m going to have to get used to there being other teleporters in town.” “Sorry, so how are things, and once again sorry about what happened.” Rainbow Dash said. “Oh, um you weren’t your self, and thanks for not killing my brother I heard on the new that he was found and now in custody, for wearing the same cloak as when he attacked the church.” Twilight said sounding a bit happier. “About that the Father wants to speak with you about your brother, and tomorrow I’m getting to the bottom of this.” Rainbow dash said. The two spent the rest of the night talking, as this would be the last kind of normal night for quite a while. Author’s notes: I will be starting a new fanfic to fill the 3rd slot as I’m done with the “bad” one, and I can’t start the spin off till a certain point in this one or it will spoil a lot. Post any constructive critism in the comments. :) Ch. 5 Root of the problemChapter 5: Root of the problem With a poof Rainbow Dash and Matt appeared on a cliff over looking Appaloosa. “Ok so what’s the plan, and for that matter why are you even here.” Rainbow Dash asked of the human. “Well the most logical place for a cult base here would be in a mine, and to answer your second question, it sounds like the satanic order wants to turn you. The good father trusts you, but the rest of the Vatican order would prefer feet on the ground for this. I will stay out of your way, but will step in if you turn, that’s why I have this harpoon loaded with enough tranquilizers to keep an elephant out for a year.” He answered after some thought. “Oh, ok. Let’s go then.” Rainbow Dash said, a little taken aback, by the fact that the harpoon was for her. With a poof they were at the mining site. “Ok that place there looks pretty abandoned.” Matt said pointing to the boarded up mine entrance. They entered the mine in silence. Inside it was cool and rather damp. They found the shaft elevator, and when examined the button for level 26 was out lined in black. “You think this is it?” Rainbow Dash asked nervously. “Most likely. You go first then I will follow.” Matt responded. The ride down was loud and slow. Upon reaching the destination the doors opened to reveal a rather creepy chamber with tapestries that looked ancient and large modern human computer displays. There were both ponies and humans here they stared at her. Then the one that appeared to be in charge spoke. “Ah, you have come at last. When this world was first discovered I couldn’t dream how much it had to offer. Yet here you are master.” The elderly human said. Deciding now as good a time as any to get information she put on a sinister smile and altered her voice a bit. “So then human, tell me what have you and your group accomplished here.” “Yes master! We formed a chapter of the order on this world. We opened a portal to hell, and gave you your current body.” The man said, with a look of glee on his face. Impressive, maybe I can have some use for these fools. The voice said. “Well this is quite excellent-” she was saying when the elevator began to climb. She quickly realized that Matt must have called it back to join her. “So it isn’t really you, you brought someone here to kill us didn’t you!” The old man caught on. Bingo, kill them, all of them, NOW! The voice commanded. At the same time the cult followers were getting ready to fight readying guns, knives, and swords to fight with. Rainbow sprung into action, her body reverting to the more demonic form it had taken on the first night, and she swept the room over with her fire breath. She released lightning from her horns striking all who were welding weapons at the time. The rest she dealt out brutal melee deaths, executions, gutting, disembodiment, cannibalization, the list goes on. The elevator arrived and the doors slid open. “Oh, um looks like you got this then. So what did you learn?” Matt asked taken aback by the sight. “Nothing we don’t know, accept that they opened a portal to hell.” Rainbow Dash explained sounding rather casual. “Oh fuck! Where? Uh, computer!” The human said rapidly tried to make since of what he heard. “Ok says here it’s in the Everfree forest.” He said. “Now let’s poof out of here. This changes everything!” With that said, a poof latter and they were gone. There was a poof and they were back in the church, Father Montgomery and Twilight had been talking and suddenly looked up. “Oh your back any good news?” Twilight asked happy to see her friend. “No, they opened a portal to hell in the Everfree forest!” Matt said panic in his voice. “Oh dear, Rainbow Dash you will have to deal with this on your own only demons can live in hell.” Twilight, myself, and Matt have something to do in the meantime, that will tie up any remaining lose ends.” The father said trying to formulate a plan. “Ok, but what can I do about the portal.” Rainbow asked. “Killing the lead demon of this world should cause it to start to close, you should be able to get out before it fully closes.” The father answered. “Ok, night.” Rainbow Dash said as she walked towards the crypt, fighting cults takes a lot out of you. “Wait, Skootaloo came by earlier. She wanted to know if we found anything. She seemed pretty broken up about you being gone, I just thought you should know.” Twilight said, then there was a poof and Rainbow was gone. Skootaloo was sitting on her bed, why was Rainbow Dash gone, why her, why were there no answers, and why did it seem like there was no hope. She turned to her window, there was a rainbow light in the streets below, and with it a pare of red eyes. Then with a poof they were gone. Author’s notes: Insert usual stuff here. Finally my other stories are appearing on my page so check them out. Ch. 6: HellChapter 6: Hell As she flew over the Everfree forest Rainbow Dash began to plan her attack. “The demons live in the superheated area beneath the surface, so my fire probably won’t do much. So I need a new ranged attack.” She thought out loud to herself. She then tried to use her magic. With a though she released two lightning bolts from her horns, and struck a tree. She smiled to herself; she was as magical as Twilight! The entrance to hell was with in view now; the large circular crevasse about a kilometer in diameter was truly a sight to behold. The edges were jagged and falling away as if the entrance was going to swallow the whole planet. From deep with in there was a orangey red glow, and screams could be heard from the depths. She was right over the opening now, the heat that radiated up from the crater was blowing bits of ash in to her eyes. With one last look to the blue sky she loved so much she folded her wings and began the plummet. She rocketed downward faster and faster. The falling rocks from the edges were slowly turning red hot, apparently being a demon made her fully immune to heat, as she didn’t feel a thing. She noticed that lining the edges of the crater were lines of ponies in chains being tortured by horrifying horned demons. She descended further the demons and forms of torture became more terrifying the deeper she went. She noticed a scrawny foal struggling against it’s bonds, as it was dragged towards a giant wheel of fire. Seeing this Rainbow Dash had to intervene. “Hey pick on someone your own size!” She hollered as she opened her wings and directed her self at the demon dragging the foal. She hit the first with lightning and impaled the second on her horns. Noticing the one she had impaled was still alive she put her fore hooves on it’s legs and pulled her head up, ripping the demon in half. She turned and prepared to jump back into the crevasse when rusted cast iron barbs suddenly shot up from the ground blocking her exit. No. You’re in my house now, attacking my people, you will play by my rules! The voice boomed in her head, and with that she was left with no option but to fight her way down to the bottom. She took of running she took note of the four main types of demons as she cut her way through them. Minor demons like the two she killed earlier, they were weak and not much of a threat. The medium demons were bulkier and put up an actual fight, and were twice the size of a human. The Fliers were giant bat like creatures with tentacles where there should be hind legs, lightning destroys them. Finally there were the behemoths she had bypassed the only one she had encountered so far, but it was massive and she really wasn’t looking forward to fighting them. She suddenly found an unwelcome realization. There stuck in a pit of lava burning but not dying was the cult leader she had killed just a yesterday. She was pulled from her shock bye a voice that boomed with malice from the bottom of the pit. “All titans group together at the nearest tunnel hub! Bring me this disappointment alive!” It said it had the same tone of command of the voice in her head, but instead of mystery it held power. Now you will face my wrath! The voice seethed. She rounded a few more corners and found her self in a large room with many tunnels branching off of it. The room was dominated by three of the behemoths. She decided to take the first strike. She flew up and lashed out with her lightning. The one that was hit didn’t even flinch. She dived at near sonic rainboom speeds and tore a huge chunk from it’s shoulder. It roared in pain, which that alone was loud enough to disorient her. It then struck her dead on with it’s massive fist. She was sent sprawling to the floor. Before she could get up she was hit by two highly coordinated attacks from the other two behemoths. “Dam gotta get out of here.” Rainbow Dash grunted as she launched her self the way she came. Wham! She was struck dead on by a behemoth that came out of her exit rout, the behemoth she bypassed earlier no doubt. As she spasmed on the floor it raised it’s massive foot and slammed it down on her. The world went black. Wake up my pet. The voice cooed as she came to. “Now that you are here. I would like to explain how this will work. I am Wrath One of the seven deadly sins and the commander of the planet’s hell. You will help us.” A massive, but not as large as a behemoth demon said as it stared at her form sprawled on the ground. “No, why should I help you?!” Rainbow seethed at her capturer. “If you refuse you lose everything, and gain nothing. If you help then you have everything to gain.” Wrath said. I can ever make you a deadly sin, how’s betrayal sound? The voice offered. “I have all the power I could need now, which you have foolishly given me!” Rainbow shot back. “Do you! This is true power! This is the power you could have, or do you like being weak?” Wrath shouted as he slammed his fist on the floor. Suddenly small cracks in the ground opened, and out of them came fire, lightning, chains, and skeletal arms, all lashing out at her. Rainbow Dash was sent flying across the room. "I will attack with or with out you. Your friends will die!” Wrath bellowed. They will go to their grave saying you failed them, join us, and you can visit them in hell! The voice pressured. “You are to weak to save anyone, but you can still destroy everyone!” Wrath screamed. You can be something more! Even if you did save everyone then what? You would be a freak an outcast, a cannibal! The voice had struck a nerve. Something inside of her broke. She sat there trembling for a bit. When she finally spoke her voice was hole and void of emotion. “Alright, What will you have me do?” She asked to the delight of Wrath. Minutes latter she was leading the forces of equestrian hell to the surface. The demons climbed the sides or flew with her. Suddenly the flyers wrath had sent to scout a head dropped like rocks and small glowing shafts were crisscrossing the visible sky. When she surfaced she discovered what it was. Humans, and they brought an army! Author’s notes: "If you paint a beautiful picture of heven few will care. Paint a horrifying picture of hell and people will run to the nearest church and beg God for forgiveness." -some guy from a documentary i watched Well shit hit the fan in this chapter. I will try to finish the story by New Year. The next chapter will explain what the father and twilight were up to during this chapter. Post in the comments your opinion on this change of events. Ch. 7: Mortal InterventionChapter 7 Mortal Intervention Before she left, Father Montgomery asked Rainbow Dash if she could teleport himself, Matt, and Twilight to the Canterlot hospital. Rainbow Dash did as asked and with a poof they were just outside of the hospital. “Ok let’s start looking the sooner we find her the sooner I get my brother back.” Twilight said rushing off towards the front door. “Hey slow down, you’re going into enemy territory.” Matt called after her. “What how is this enemy territory?” Twilight asked. “Well although the majority of the Equestrian chapter was wiped out at Appleosa the remainder of the Canterlot sect is probably still active.” Matt said as he caught up to her. “Yes and this may not turn your brother back to normal right away but it will still push him in the right direction.” Father Montgomery said as they entered the hospital. “Speaking of which what are we even doing I was with Rainbow Dash when you two were planning this.” Matt said as they made their way to the section of the hospital used by the royal guard. “Well, the man who declared Princess Cadence dead when first contact was made, was a suspected member of the satanic order. This was latter confirmed as he was the cult leader Rainbow killed in that cave.” The priest said. “And because they make bad things happen we think Cadence is still alive and being held in the Royal Guard section of the hospital. They faked her death to get Shining Armor on their side so they could have access to the resources of the Royal Guard. “Ok here we are she would be somewhere in here so form up on me.” Matt said as he reached for his gun. “Wait what if they’re just normal guards in there!” Twilight whispered to him. “Good point let me handle this.” Matt said as he opened the door casually, and walked in. “Hey, what can we do for you, are you lost since this is our section of the hospital.” A royal guard asked as his two colleges began to approach. Matt only pulled a copper cross, apparently the symbol of the Vatican Order. This was met with a series of “Oh fuck”s as the three stallions tried to rush him. Matt pulled out his pistol with his free hand and shot them before they could reach him. Twilight guessed that the tube on the end of the barrel somehow dampened sound, as it was much quieter than Fluttershy’s pistol. “Ok we don’t know what she looks like so we’ll just follow you now.” The father said to Twilight. After a minute or so of searching, Twilight found an odd looking container. “Hey what’s this?” “That’s one of those stasis pods used on old colony ships right?” Matt asked Father Montgomery as he had been around back when stasis pods were still needed. “Yes I it most defiantly is.” The father asked. “Well open it!” Twilight said excitedly. The old priest moved to the control panel, and turned the key. With a hiss the container slid open revealing the pony of the hour. “Cadence!” Twilight exclaimed as she hugged the just waking alicorn. “Oh where am I what am I in and how long have I been gone.” Cadence asked still dazed by the stasis. “Little under half a year now. Twilight I’ll leave her to you would like to be back at the church to greet rainbow Dash when she’s done tying up that last loose end.” Father Montgomery said. “Ok!” Twilight happily responded. The trip back to Ponyville was long and tiring, so the elderly priest decide that he could take a nap as it was only evening. However sweet dreams never came. A voice was whispering of betrayal, fire was everywhere, a filly was crying out Rainbow Dash why? A newspaper flashed by “Second race war on Equestria?”, and a news report could be heard “It’s literal hell down there now, The things that came from below can only be described as demons.” Then he was on a ship looking out at Equestria and arguing with a soldier. “There are still thousands of ponies down there!” “Acceptable losses. Now take your seat!” The soldier responded. Then there was a large flash and the planet shattered. He awoke suddenly from his night terror. He didn’t want to believe it but he had to warn then, to end it before it get’s to bad. He picked up the phone and dialed the number of the U.C.o.E. orbital defense platform. “Howdy father what can I do for ya?” The familiar voice of the support hotline voice said. Father Montgomery paused, no one would belive him if he said a portal to hell had opened up so he said the one thing that would provoke a full military response. “I believe I found an Annunaki out post at these co-ordinates.” He lied, but he had to. Private Rodriguez felt the adrenalin rush through his body as the massive god slayer APC crashed through the thick forest. He had been stationed on the opposite side of human controlled space from the fighting, but if the Annunaki were here then they where out flanked and doomed to lose. The door opened up and he and the rest of the company piled out. There was no base, just a hole in the ground. Suddenly a winged, tentecled, horned monster flew up from the depths. He raised his LMG but held fire, as looks can be deceiving. In this case they weren’t as it breathed fire at the soldiers. He fired at it more were coming up now, they were dying before they could do much harm fortunately. There was a whoosh and a bat winged horned cyan pony with a rainbow fire mane was staring down at him. “What the hell is wrong with this planet?” Was all he could say. Author’s notes: New episode of mlp today! For any who care I just started a lp of pokemon mystery dungeon explorer’s of time on my youtube channel DarkDewgong4 Note: a god slayer APC is so large it takes of 3 lanes, and carries other vehicles as well as entire companies of soldiers. Ch. 8: InsidiousChapter 8: Insidious The humans were firing on the Demons as they reached the surface, she knew she had to draw their fire away from the opening. Rainbow Dash noticed that there was a massive vehicle that the humans had based their defense around. It had machine guns, artillery, and missile racks all over it, so it was rather obvious why they based their strategy around it. Rainbow Dash swooped low, and one of the automated machine guns began firing at her. She swooped below the vehicle and breathed fire onto its rather weakly armored underside. Behind her she heard the death roar of a behemoth that tried to rush one of the human’s tanks. That however was soon drowned out by then a massive boom as apparently she had hit the fuel line. The humans were in sudden disarray, as their command post erupted in to fire. However the humans didn’t give up a rapidly changed their strategy from defensive and well thought out, to aggressive, and savage. Ah humans, how they are his chosen ones I will never know. For this is their true nature, this is how they fight. This is what they do when they believe they are going to lose. They fight savagely trying to force the enemy on the defense. The voice, which was notably louder, now said. It was true; The humans were using offensive tactics for defense. Rainbow Dash watched as a jeep rammed a behemoth, as well as a few humans where rushing and actually punching and tackling demons that got in their way, which was suicide as demons have massive claws. Rainbow Dash left the ground war to the demons she would be taking control of the flyers as they were being decimated by the human air force. She flew up, then dived down smashing though a helicopter, she then leveled out and doused the other helicopters with fire. An F-82 roared in at mach 8 and fired a barrage of missiles at her she shrugged them off and bucked the plane into tiny little shards of metal. The rest of the battle was over in a matter of minutes. She landed and looked over her forces, she had a good 2 thousand, and even more still climbing the chasm. “Ok, It’s on to Ponyville now, and when we get there, there will be no survivors!” Rainbow Dash roared, to any pony watching, she was a completely different pony then what she was before. Father Montgomery looked out a window of the church, another judgment class landing craft descended on Ponyville, which made three. Each one carried 8 companies of soldiers and the vehicles and air support to support them. No more APCs left for the forest, the U.C.o.E. was preparing the defense of the town. “The U.C.o.E just enacted copper contingency protocols. They want everyone in the safe zone they set up. Shall we go?” Matt questioned as he approached. “No I want to try to confront Rainbow Dash, and try to bring her back.” He informed. “Alright then, guess I will need this then.” Matt said as he checked the load on his rail gun. “Oh yes you will.” A familiar voice said as the door to the confession booth creaked open. Rainbow Dash stepped out and glared at the humans before her. “Rainbow Dash what have you done? Why are you doing this?” The priest asked in horror. “Oh, I’ve seen the light, or rather the darkness!” She said, like a kid playing with her food before eating it. “Sir get back this isn’t safe!” Matt said as he stepped in front of father Montgomery and leveled his rail gun at her head. “You betrayed me, you called the U.C.o.E. and told them to kill me because you assumed I had turned!” She bellowed. “Well were we wrong?” Matt asked, before he could take a shot he found himself gutted by her horns. “Ahh! Urgh! God dam you to hell.” Matt grunted out before dying. “I already am, and I’m loving every minute of it.” Rainbow Dash harshly replied to the corpse hanging from her horns. “You’re a monster!” The priest exclaimed as his college was dropped to the floor. “So?” Rainbow Dash said in a calm cold tone. The conversation was cut short as a tank dropped from orbit smashed through the roof and into the center of the church. It fired a hail of machine gun fire at Rainbow Dash, she simply raised her wings and they deflected the bullets. She was about to hit it with some fire of her own, when the main gun swiveled around and fired a round at her, her wings couldn’t stop that. She was blasted through the large front doors and landed unconscious in the field beyond. “Hey are you stupid, command enacted copper contingency protocols ten minutes ago!” The gunner called out at him. “Get in we’ll take you to the safe zone.” The gunner said apparently he had scolded the priest enough. Scootaloo was in tears. Her house on the edge of Ponyville, so it was one of the first hit. Her parents had died and her house was wreaked. She was in what was left of her bedroom. She heard something in the hallway. Then one of the smaller creatures poked it’s head through and looked around. It noticed her cowering in a corner, and prepared to attack. Suddenly a light shone upon it and then there was a series of bangs, suddenly it was in pieces on the ground. Scootaloo looked at the streets below to see what saved her. There was three soldiers, a hummer, a driver, and the gunner who had killed the demon. Private Rodriguez, who had just barely survived first contact watched as a orange Pegasus filly with a purple mane looked out over a ruble pile and down at him. “Hey we can take you to the safe zone, don’t worry we’re the good guys.” Rodriguez said to the filly. It cautiously stepped down the ruble and to the street below. Across the town peace was completely over turned as ponies fled, soldiers fought for every last inch of land, and demons rained hell on the unprepared. The town of Ponyville began to gain the likeness of Stalingrad as the forces of war unearthed man’s savage nature. Author’s Notes: Ok I’m holding voting on my page for what I do next so check that out. Apparently I can only write after I play hockey, so prepare for a shit storm of chapters as I have a tournament this weekend. So what do you think of this turn of events? Ch. 9: AshesChapter 9: Ashes Father Montgomery awoke the next morning it the hastily constructed refuge camp with in the safe zone. That morning the gunfire and roars of the battle could be clearly heard. The priest looked up and was stunned at the sight; the ashes were falling like snow upon the town. He quickly got dressed, as he knew he would be busy today with the multiple funerals that would be needed. As he rushed out the door of the building he had spent the night in, one of the conventional sized APCs rushed by with multiple stretchers on it. Somewhere someone yelled “We just lost zone thirteen prepare the medical center to receive all personal assigned to that zone!” “Well that can’t be good.” Father Montgomery said knowing this would be a long day. -- The night had been long for a very certain Scootaloo, after a long drive to the safe zone, the soldiers had been given an assignment and had to go. Luckily she was able to room with the Apples who were also displaced by the attack. Her and the rest of the crusaders had gathered for a meeting in the tent that Rarity and SweetyBelle where assigned. “Well this is a once in a lifetime opportunity, would be a shame if we never got our cutie marks because we was scared!” Applebloom exclaimed. Her and Sweetybelle had been arguing over whether or not they could go crusading. “But this is bad! Even the human things can’t beat the monsters!” Sweetybelle protested. “I think we should take a look at what’s out there.” Scootaloo mumbled. “See, Scootaloo thinks it’s a good idea!” Applebloom stated triumphantly. “Cutie Mark Crusaders Demon Watchers!” the three fillies shouted before rushing out in to the road and hopping on to the under carriage of a passing Jeep. -- Out in the field at the foot of the hill that the church was on a Cyan figure began to move. Looking up Rainbow Dash noticed that the church was still partially standing. A glance over to Ponyville confirmed that her demons had been through here, so why was the church still standing? “Well got to fix that.” She mused before taking of a breathing fire on to the remains. What are you doing? She paused, the voice wasn’t it’s normal tone, but she got the message she should be fighting humans rather than burning ruins. The change in tone must be due to being blown in half and thrown through a wall. She was flying over the edge of the town destroying pockets of resistance and monitoring the movements of her troops. Then she heard it again. Why are you doing this? The voice sounded familiar of course it was her master so it should. Also it was right she should be fighting on the front lines not doing clean up. -- The girls had road the underbelly of the tank for a few minutes and the sounds of gunfire were much louder. “I think we should get of so we can observe from a distance.” Scootaloo suggested and her to comrades nodded in agreement. They dropped of the bottom and got a good look at what used to be their town. Picture some of the images of town hit with incendiaries during World War II, those towns were mostly brick, now picture what it would look like if everything was wood, and you have the idea. Their moment of shock was cut short when the tank violently exploded, and a dragon-winged cyan flaming mare swooped over head. “AH! Oh my gosh! We need to hide!” Sweetybelle shrieked and made a dash for the charred remains of o house. Applebloom and Scootaloo quickly followed. Inside the wreckage the three could see a battle. A squad of soldiers was facing off with three of the medium demons, and one behemoth. It seemed like it was over for the humans, one of them was screaming what sounded like nonsense in to his radio. There was a loud humming sound, and all the soldiers began to retreat back while fire at the enemy. Suddenly the flying contraption that was making the humming began to hover. The the air was filled with the roar of the three chain guns on the helicopter as it gunned down the medium, and the screech of missiles as it ripped the behemoth in two. “Ah think we got to be going now!” Applebloom stated and the three began to rush their way back to the safe zone. On their way back however, the helicopter was sent flying, and it smashed right into the road separating Scootaloo from her friends. “Scootaloo! What are we going to do!” Sweetybelle asked terrified. “You guys head back to the safe zone I’ll try to find a way around don’t wait for me I’ll be fine!” She responded before rushing down a alleyway. -- Rainbow Dash was pushing back some humans who were trying to make an advance. They she noticed that something was in her air! She whirled around to see one of those helicopters take out a behemoth and three mediums! “Welcome to Equestria!” she bellowed as she attacked sending it to the streets below. What is wrong with you, or rather, me, what is wrong with me?! The voice said, then something clicked; this wasn’t master, it sounded familiar because it was her. Back when she was weak! If part of her was blocking her from master then she would have to stomp it out. Hunting and tearing innocent ponies to shreds would do the trick. -- Scootaloo must have made a wrong turn somewhere. It was night fall, and she was at the safe zone, or rather the 10 foot tall segmented metal/concrete wall topped with razor wire and the occasional turret that sealed of the safe zone. She heard them approach, and she curled up ready to die, the monsters stocked around the corner, they were lead by a cyan pony with bat-like wings, horns, red eyes, and a multicoloured rainbow mane. Behind it was an assortment of demons that would make even discord cry with fear. “Rainbow Dash is that you?” The small orange filly whispered. To anyone watching it seemed like Rainbow Dash had gone cross eyed for a moment, however in her head: Rainbow Dash or at least the good part of her was standing on the alter of the church in a pure Pegasus form, and what she guessed to be the representation of her evil self, a cyan medium stood by the entrance. They where in the burning remains of the church. “Give me back my body!” Good Rainbow growled. “No, I refuse to be weak again! I refuse to be worthless!” Evil Dash shouted back. “Fine then I’ll take it back!” Good Rainbow Dash said brandishing one of the plasma claw gauntlets that some of the humans wore. They rushed at each other. Good Dash used her speed and flight to gain some quick hits, but then bad Dash punched her square in the face and unleashed some demon fire on her. Good Dash was left sputtering on the ground, her evil persona towering over her. “You can’t win I am powerful now, why would you want to be weak?!” The evil Dash questioned. “No. You can’t win because I am loyal to my friends!” As she bellowed this her element materialized around her neck. “Good bye.” She finished as she blasted her alter ego, allowing her to fall back into the real world with a new or rather old outlook on things. Author’s notes: Once again I would like to direct viewers to my page to vot on what I do next. Longest chapter so far, not by much. Good dash back evil is dead now. Dang it’s hard to write about someone fighting themselves! Music for this chapter: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rz3_i4bT4bg Ch. 10: RevelationChapter 10: Revelation Rainbow Dash wheeled around and vaporized her underlings with intense flames. She then picked up Scootaloo in her mouth and flew over the wall, when she landed there where 6 guns pointed right at her. The humans appeared confused, here was the demon that’s been slaughtering them, but now it just saved a filly and isn’t attacking. “Burn demon!” Father Montgomery yelled as he ran forward and splashed a bowl of holy water on Rainbow Dash, then he coward behind one of the soldiers. “Really, Montgomery?” RD deadpanned. “What the fuck is going on?” One of the soldiers asked. “I’ve changed, or rather I’ve un changed…” Rainbow Dash said trying to explain. Suddenly a human wearing a trench coat and a ball cap jumped in front of the firing squad of soldiers and pointed a sword at Rainbow Dash’s neck. “I shall be the judge of that! I am Pierre Lemont, HERO 2nd class, now defend your self!” He lunged forward, and Rainbow Dash just barely managed to dodge, as she dodged she tossed Scootaloo aside so she wouldn’t get hurt. It was obvious that this was no ordinary human, the sword it wielded was a full 5.5 feet long, and it was wielding the sword with only one hand (note it is of European design so none of that ultra thin Katana BS). He swung again this time, she blocked the strike with her wings. “So you are fast and you can take a hit, can’t have that.” As he said that his sword erupted in a swirling green energy. “Look I don’t want to fight you!” Rainbow Dash yelled as she tried to take flight, she was slammed into the ground hard, this ‘human’ had telekinesis, no fair! “Well I think we should hear her out.” Montgomery said from behind one of the soldiers. Pierre formed an smg out of the trace amounts of metal in the soil and pointed it at the priest with his free hand. “What do you know that you aren’t telling us?” Pierre questioned. “Well, the monsters are actual demons from hell, and this is Rainbow Dash.” Montgomery said as fast as he could. “Well then, I believe that settles things then.” Pierre said as he sheathed his sword. “Wait what?” Montgomery asked. “We know everything else.” The super human stated as he walked away. “Can you tell us then?” asked one of the soldiers. The man paused and turned to RD. “If there isn’t any progress made by tomorrow night the U.C.o.E. will be firing a nuke in to the crater, and thus destroying the planet. If you really have changed then go to hell and finish this!” He said before resuming walking away. “Well now I think that you should go properly prepared this time so-” The priest was cut off by a poof. “Well that escalated quickly!” Rodriguez said, “Wait, Scootaloo! Looks like I’m saving you again.” He said as he rushed over to the barely conscious orange filly. -- With a poof Rainbow Dash was in Wrath’s chamber. “Well, what do you have to report?” the elite demon asked malice dripping from every word. “That your going to die!” Rainbow Dash said as she lunged at him full speed actually sonic rain booming it the cavern. The impact shook the cavern but she didn’t notice, how could she. She had the fate of everyone on Equis to worry about! “Huh, so you betrayed us. Well your still just a half breed, and I am a deadly sin!” Wrath said preparing to unleash his well, wrath. In one hand he materialized a massive sword, he slammed the other into the floor causing the same affect a before. This time she was ready, flying up to avoid it, only to be slammed into it by Wrath’s sword. “You are still weak!” Wrath taunted. Rainbow Dash took this moment to blast him with fire and lightning, to no avail. “Pathetic, to think that there are things as weak as you alive!” Wrath brought his sword down when something took over Rainbow Dash, and in a feat of herculean strength she caught the massive blade in her mouth, and ripped it out of Wrath’s hand. “I shall fear no evil, and bow to no demon!” She growled through her mouth. She plunged the sword into Wrath’s chest and sealed his fate. -- On the surface the demon’s felt their master dying and broke down sobbing. The humans used this time to slay the sobbing beasts. -- Rainbow Dash decided to speed up his fate by kicking the sword. In his last moments Wrath seethed out one final word. “Seraph…” As he said that word a light shone on Rainbow Dash, she looked up seeing that there was a hole in the roof of the cavern and a hole in the cloud cover. As she stared into the light, it changed her. The flames extinguished, her eyes returned to their normal shade, her horns shrunk and their colour changed to cyan apposed to black, finally the black bulging veins disappeared. Most astonishing of all was her wings, the leathery surface peeled away reveling white feathers. She flew up and towards the open sky. -- Pierre was confused, the three behemoths he had taken on alone had just stopped and had begun weeping, and then he stared in horror as they ripped their own hearts out. -- Rainbow Dash arrived at the safe zone in record time, apparently these new wings where better. She spotted Montgomery and walked over to him smiling from ear to ear. “Hay Father, how do I look?” She asked. “Oh! Oh my, you look like an angel.” The startled priest said. “Yeah, yeah, do you know where Twi is?” Rainbow Dash asked. “Oh over there with what’s her name, Fluttershy!” he answered. Rainbow Dash rushed over to the newly landed Judgment Class landing craft titled Thunder. She saw her two friends gathered by the loading bay. “Hey Fluttershy what are you doing home so soon, isn’t your tour done in a month?” She asked. “Oh, um, well I heard that there was an attack here so I ordered my fleet back here after we secured the new Somalia system. “Wait, fleet, ordered, what?” Twilight asked staring at Fluttershy as if she had grown a second head. “Oh I got promoted to admiral, it’s a long story.” Fluttershy answered. “Mind if I but in here, but may I borrow Rainbow Dash for a moment?” Father Montgomery asked. “What is it?” Rainbow Dash asked after being taken aside. “Well the scans of the Equis hell hole, match a unnatural formation we found on earth, it’s still small, but the point is the order has a ship coming to pick us up in roughly a month.” The priest explained. “Sure, sounds good.” Rainbow Dash replied, nothing could break he good mood. So you're coming to kill me then? Rainbow Dash’s jaw dropped. -- Author’s notes: I will up date this story with an epilog and links to the sort of spin off, and the eventual sequel. Votes are in and I have decided, I will be doing the FO:E, as well and the pmd cross over, as well as Aurther Currie on the Equestrian front. Well what do you think, leave another rating out of ten. Also are you somewhat looking forward to the sequel? oh and on another account i will publish the sequel to ytp... sometime EpilogueFore note: I just wanted to rap up things on equestrian before I stamp this as finished and continue with le epic pot of epic that is le U.C.o.E. -- The following is the results of the story roughly two and a half weeks latter. Shining Armor was taken into a correctional facility on the moon. Scootaloo was adopted by Private Rodriguez, as he seems to be the best at taking care of her. A divide has formed in Equestria between the Celestia half that believes the U.C.o.E. is justified, and the more radicle Luna half that believes that the U.C.o.E’s actions were heavy handed, and further more that the U.C.o.E. has no place in Equestria. FIN Youtube Video -- “So you got any idea where on earth this Hell Gate is?” Rainbow Dash questioned Father Montgomery as she looked down at the tomb stone. “The only place one could be hidden. The red hot remains of China.” The elderly priest replied taking his eyes from the grave for the first time since they arrived. “I will never be able to forgive myself for what I did to him.” Rainbow Dash said solemnly. The pair were visiting Matt’s grave. “I think he would be proud of what we are going to do.” Montgomery answered. “Well I got to go, Twi is having a sleep over tonight, and I want to be able to finally know how Fluttershy became an admiral.” Rainbow Dash said and then with a poof she was off. Father Montgomery stayed a little while longer in the graveyard, then left. Despite being in a graveyard he was happy. The darkness was gone, and there was a new calling to be answered, a Seraph’s Calling. -- Author's notes: Did I just drop a title for the sequel? I think I did! Dam that was short. For Fluttershy’s story/U.C.o.E. spin-off/prequel: http://www.fimfiction.net/story/79521/for-the-glory-and-honor-of-the-ucoe Someponies I would like to thank: Me. Myself. I. Rainbow87dash (for being an epic follower the entire way through) Any pony else who liked and/or favorited this story. I had no editor so that’s it.
ProloguePrologue: The words echoed in her head, Hate, Kill, Burn, Destroy, Consume, Indoctrinate, Followed by screams and the smell of burning flesh. Rainbow Dash woke suddenly in a pool of her own sweat, with some of her hair that had fallen out due to stress, this had been happening a lot, every night after the changeling attack. She knew if tis continued she would be bald and to tired to fly, so she decided out loud, “I guess tomorrow I will get help, but where.” Most of her friends were out of the question, Applejack would tease her, Rarity would faint at her bald patches, Fluttershy would get nightmares to if she told her, and Pinky would say some nonsense like, “your having nightmares again, this is like every fanfic, just don’t stab me this time, I know lets have a party!” Twilight on the other hand maybe of some help, with an entire library at her disposal, “I’ll go now, who needs day light, when you’re too tired to see anyway” she exclaimed and headed out into the night. Deciding now was as good a time as any, Rainbow Dash smashed through Twilight’s window scaring the still studying mare half to death. “Rainbow Dash why can’t you use a door, and why are you hear so late at night?” the purple mare trailed of now looking more concerned than mad. “Well I, have been having nightmares,” noticing Twilights now rather annoyed face she continued “but they continue in the day too, it’s like somepony is commanding me to do things I don’t want.” This caught Twilight’s attention. “Oh when did they start?” asked the librarian curiously. “A little after the changeling attack, maybe I just hit my head” the rainbow mare offered. “Maybe but I’d like to take a look-“ a loud clanging bell cut of Twilight mid sentence. “Darn humans, and their unnecessary noise” Twilight practically screamed. Humans arrived under the banner of the U.C.o.E. United Colonies of earth, and had done a few things, set up a embassy in Canterlot, a military recruitment station in Manehattan, a university in Trotingham, and a church on the outskirts of ponyville. “Midnight mass what a ridicules idea” she continued but was abruptly cut off, by Rainbow Dash this time. “Ok I’m going,” She said looking towards the church. “the sign out front says open to all seeking advice from above. So it can’t hurt I suppose.” Twilight was shocked “Why, what they preach is not scientific!” “They say magic isn’t scientific, and they travel space like an ocean, and move planets if they don’t like the view, so it can’t be too illogical.” Twilight took this in for a moment then accepted it. “I’m coming with you then” she called out to Rainbow Dash who was already out the door. Author’s notes: It will quickly get better in the next chapter. This is my first fanfic please point out any mistakes so I can improve. You can easly contact me through my youtube channel DarkDewgong4. I will probably make a fanfic about the U.C.o.E. latter. I have other things so this may not get updated regularly.
Ch. 1: Devil in a midnight massChapter one: Devil in a Midnight Mass They reached the church on a hill outside of ponyville with nothing interesting happening on the way there. Standing much taller than most trees the church’s clock tower/entrance was rather intimidating, with one last look back the two mares opened the large oak doors and headed inside. The inside of the church was large with an arched ceiling. The air was rather stale and had an unusual scent to it. Above and behind the altar was a large cross with a statue of a man on it. There was only the priest; father Montgomery, and a couple humans; apparently not even humans were too fond of midnight mass. Seeing that there were other people (or rather ponies) here tonight the priest rushed to start the mass before they could get discouraged and leave. The mass was long and unenlightening. So not awesome. Rainbow Dash thought to herself. Your wasting your time, to think any thing could save you from me, nothing can save you from me. The nightmare voice in her head taunted. Leave me alone. She thought back now rather frustrated. I cannot leave you, you cannot get rid of me, you cannot hurt me, I am a race you cannot win, a enemy you cannot beat, a nightmare you cannot wake up from, a memory you cannot forget, for I am you. The cold menacing voice told her, causing her to snap. “NO!” Rainbow Dash bellowed out a tear running down her cheek The mass was still ongoing, causing the humans to turn to her ,then each other with confused looks on their faces, and warranting a concerned look from the lavender unicorn mare next to her in the pew. When the mass was over father Montgomery announced that he would be holding private confessions tonight for anyone interested. This perked Rainbow Dash’s interest. The humans were leaving and the father went to the thing at the back of the church that looked kind of like two wooden outhouses stuck together and sat in one. “Let me guess, your going to confession, aren’t you” said Twilight in a all to I knew this would happen sort of way. To this Rainbow Dash was only able to nod on her way over. She sat in the unoccupied “stall”, and noticed that there was a bit of a grate separating the two “stalls” while the rest was solid wood. “I knew you would come, I’d have to say after what I saw tonight, you got demons,” predicting her confusion he explained; “it’s a saying we humans have, just means something’s bothering you.” Well more than just something heh heh heh. The menacing voice joked. “So what has you bothered so much kid, just tell me.” father Montgomery said trying to sound comforting. “Well when I try to sleep I have a terrible nightmare, a voice telling me to do horrible things, and during the day it’s in my head mocking and taunting me.” She confessed hoping the priest wouldn't send her to an insane asylum. “Sin is lurking at the door, it’s desirer is you, you must master it.” The priest expertly quoted, then continued, “it could be nothing but if you want I could try an exorcism, to purge the darkness from you.” He offered. Suddenly there was the sound of shattering wood. “There will be no such thing!” Somepony yelled. “Brother what are–” There was a sound like somepony getting bucked. “Bind her.” Came the unknown voice. “And lock up the old man, no one gets in our way.” Suddenly the “stall” door was thrown open and yes standing in the door way was in fact Shining Armor, now wearing a black cloak with an upside down pentagram on the back. He reached out with his magic grabbing her. “What the hay are you doing? Help!” was the last thing she said before being chained to a metal cross, and carried to the roof. Author’s notes: Thank you, for reading I’m not sure when the 3rd chapter will come out. If you have a weak stomach to gore don’t read much farther. Please comment criticism and opinions. I don’t know if I got the exact quote right so someone please inform me.
Ch. 2: AwakeningChapter 2: Awakening The cult ponies, as Rainbow Dash had decided to call them, had dragged her up on to the roof and mounted her cross and her on the peak of the bell tower. She could see that they had gathered in a semicircle with Twilight’s beaten and tied up form thrown rather unceremoniously in to the center. Rainbow Dash would have said something but the way the chains on her forelegs pulled upwards on her chest made it hard for her to breath. “Why are you doing this?” Twilight managed to croak out, the statement obviously directed at her deranged brother. “Two years ago when the changelings attacked my wife died! All hope seemed lost but then the U.C.o.E. makes first contact and paints the streets of Canterlot green with their blood. Everypony was so busy making peace with the humans that not a fuck was given about my loss!” Shining Armor exclaimed. Thinking back Rainbow Dash saw that she wasn’t a very good friend her best friend’s brother’s wife had been murdered and the next day she was trying to race a F-82 ultra sonic atmospheric fighter plane. “Well that doesn’t matter now! For tonight our master will be free, and lead us to immortality!” The obviously insane stallion screamed. Call me a communist, but everyone burns before me whether they worship me or are prim and proper citizens. No the will regret crossing us and nothing will save them. The voice in her head stated. At that moment one of the cult’s Pegasie kicked a cloud sending a lightning bolt down striking the metal cross, which brunt unnaturally hot, in that moment every thing changed. Rainbow Dash awoke on the church roof having fallen from the bell tower, and right away she knew all was not right, she saw in tunnel vision, and she had a unbearable hunger. Physically she could hardly be called a pony any more, her mane and tail was now a colour shifting fire, her wings were akin to those of a dragon, she had a mouth with sharp carnivorous teeth, and two cured ram like horns coming out of the sides of her head. She got up feeling more power in her legs than ever before, and began to stalk towards the cult, however with the intense hunger the best she could do was stagger forward. “Feed master on the sacrifice we have brought you!” Shining Armor said gesturing towards Twilight. Yes feed, then slaughter them. The voice commanded. Twilight watched in horror as the now blood red eyes of what had once been her friend locked on to her. Rainbow Dash pounced and sunk her fangs into the right hind leg of a terrified Twilight Sparkle and pulled, the flesh tore, the bone popped out of the socket, and blood spattered across the roof. She would have screamed if she wasn’t so trans fixed on the sight of her friend striping flesh of the bone of her leg, and consuming it like a starved animal. Rainbow Dash turned back to Twilight now with a familiar confident smile on her face then with one flap of her massive wings she propelled herself high into the sky. Rainbow Dash flew high and fast, she impaled the cult Pegasus with her horns ripping through it’s body allowing a severed intestine to fall free, the she whipped the misfortunate creature to the ground where it made a messy splatter. Now the fun begins, release your rage! The voice in her head insisted. Before the ponies on the roof could react Rainbow Dash rained fire from her lungs burning many of the cultists. Then she plummeted down and pinned a cultist that was trying to escape down and slammed her free front hoof down on the cult pony shattering it like glass and killing it instantly. She was trying to think of where Shining Armor could have escaped to when she herd a groan. She turned to she Twilight, and she blinked, her rage cooled, the black pulsating veins of power shrank back in to her head, her eyes turned back to their natural rose colour, and her mane and tail died down from a raging inferno to something more akin to a pilot light. “Sorry Twi I lost control” she said in her normal but saddened voice. She then headed down into the church below. Farther Montgomery sat in the confession booth he had been barricaded into by the cult. Suddenly the booth door next to him opened and something sat down in it. What ever it was caused an odd multi coloured light to shine through the grate. “Father…” began Rainbow Dash as she explained the nights events. “I want to use my powers to do good please help me.” she finished. After a long pause Father Montgomery replied “as a priest it is my job to help rid the world of evil and you want to rid the world of evil so it’s my duty to help you, unblock the door and quickly hide in the crypt, the authorities will be here soon and I have a dying mare I need to try to help. How can you rid the world of evil when you are the greatest evil? The voice called out. With that said the stage was set! Author’s notes: If anyone can find or make a good picture for this fanfic it would be much appreciated. As usual point out any mistakes. Please leave a rating out of ten in the comments. I will be starting two new stories soon so keep an eye out for them. One will be a series of short stories about the U.C.o.E. The other will make pinkie pie seem normal.
Ch.3: In the mean timeChapter 3: in the mean time She was having a nightmare, but now she was consumed by the demon it was much worse. “Well from the sounds of it you could have avoided all of this if you were just more sensitive to Shining Armor.” The voice joked. “Well hey I maybe I could have been better, but I hate to say it the day Cadence died was the day we got Fluttershy back, and I had been blaming myself for her disappearance so I had to be happy. Also she has killed at least twice as many as I have and she’s still the element of kindness.” Dream Rainbow Dash retorted. “I haven’t heard of any elements of loyalty attacking their friends just because she was hungry.” The voice taunted. Rainbow Dash woke up suddenly in the crypt, her hunger and tunnel vision was back in full force. She smelt meat and sure enough there was a plate of bacon on the floor near her. She ate it returning her sanity. Then she noticed the note: Rainbow Dash I left you some food since I thought you would be hungry, I’m probably doing Sunday mass right now so I left you this note. Twilight is in room 7 of the hospital and now the town is under watch from both the U.C.o.E. and your government. I heard that unicorns can teleport and you have horns now s o thought you could try it. -Father Montgomery She stared at the opposite wall, she focused and *poof she teleported, she would need a bit of practice but she allowed herself a smile. An orange Pegasus filly sat in a pew in the mass, she was just barely holding back the tears, she woke up to discover via the paper that her idol had been filly napped. She was here more so that she could morn at her hero’s last known location, than seeking guidance. When the mass was over she approached the human guarding the stairs to the roof. “What do you think happened to Rainbow Dash?” She asked hopping he would say she would be home soon and the bad people behind this would be punished. “Well they say missing because we haven’t found a body, but she was struck by lightning, while chained to that cross, and our test say it was made od magnesium and when that’s heated it burns white hot till there’s nothing left. I think the body was incinerated.” Then noticing the crushed look on the filly he added. “but I could be wrong!” *POOF Just like that Rainbow dash was in room 7 of the hospital. She gazed upon Twilight and noticed the hulking gash where her leg should have been. Ugh you should kill it I hate to see suffering I haven’t directly caused. The demonic voice suggested. Ignoring it Rainbow approached the bedside and preformed a healing spell. “Twi, wake up I want to talk to you.” Rainbow Dash said in a very soft voice. “Ah, Rainbow Dash!” the purple mare exclaimed almost screaming in shock. “ What are you doing here, please don’t hurt me.” “Relax Twi, I think I got my self under control, and I want to tell you that I want to use my powers for good and I want your help.” Rainbow said trying to calm the mare and explain the situation. “Oh and It’s room 66 of the guard house, that your brother lives in, right?” Rainbow dash asked already forming a plan. “Yes and, wait please don’t kill him!” Twilight answered realizing what her cyan friend was planning. “I just want answers, but I’m not making any promises.” And with a poof she was gone. Author’s Note’s: bout time i added a new chapter! Rather slow chapter mainly character and plot building, next time more dark stuff. Confused about Fluttershy? I will be making a (what do u call a spin-off series that bigger than the original) about all that stuff. Note any mistakes in the comments. Can someone please find me a pic to use for this cuz I can’t find 1 for the life of me. Check out my other story Red October. Season 3 tomorrow! Remember that the 11th is remembrance day.
Ch. 4 Shining ArmorChapter 4: Shining Armor With a poof Rainbow Dash teleported into the room. A member of the cult was observing Shining Armor reciting some satanic prayer. Deciding that she didn’t want to lose control while confronting Shining Armor she sneaked up ripped the cult pony’s spine out and ate him (she had deduced that her self control was directly linked to her hunger). Hearing the sudden thrashing and tearing Shining Armor turned to look at Rainbow Dash with a twisted smile on his face. “So you returned master I knew you would come to your senses sooner or later.” He said calmly. “What?” Was all Rainbow Dash could think of for how weird this was. “Oh some of that Rainbow Dash lingers still. Oh well doesn’t matter now you will lead us to our day of reckoning soon enough.” He rather rudely responded. I will lead no one of this world anywhere, in fact if I had control he would be dead now. The voice said sounding rather annoyed. “Answers now tell me everything!” Rainbow Dash seethed and delivered a blow to his chest that knocked the deranged guard stallion to the ground. “Well you are foolish to think I an very significant in all this. I am but a lowly servant of the order. Go to Appleosa there you will find answers as well as figuratively speaking the light, as I have.” Shining Armor answered, enraging Rainbow Dash. She lashed out driving a forehoof through his stomach. Good now finish it! The voice ordered. “No I said to Twi I wouldn’t.” Said Rainbow Dash struggling to resist the temptation. She teleported away before her will could break. Mean while at the Ponyville Hospital Twilight Sparkle Woke to a peculiar weight on where her leg would be. She looked down to see a purple what appeared to be plastic leg in it’s place. “What is this.” Twilight exclaimed both disturbed and fascinated. Then there was a bit of shuffling in the room, and a human soldier stood up from the seat in the corner he had been sleeping in. “Oh, that is a standard fake leg typically given to amputees. You When Fluttershy heard what happened she ordered you got one. You can use it to walk, and it can be removed for greater comfort. Oh you are clear to return to your home according to Nurse Redheart.” The soldier quickly explained. “Wait I thought Fluttershy was just a medic since when was she in a position to give orders?” She wondered aloud, then noticing that the soldier was about to explain she cut him off. “You know, I don’t care I just want to go home.” As she walked through the streets of ponyville she was constantly being asked about the leg or what happened, to the latter she would answer something like, “I’m not sure myself, or I don’t want to talk about it.” However when a depressed looking Scotaloo asked about Rainbow Dash, all she said was “I wish I knew for sure.” Back in the crypt Rainbow Dash the Father and some guy in a security uniform named Matt were discussing the information she had gathered. The guy was apparently a paladin of the Vatican Order a secret society that had be secretly waging war against the Satanic Order for a couple of centuries now. “So the Satanic Order has set up an Equestrian chapter.” Father Montgomery concluded. “Check out Appleosa tomorrow, I will send Matt to make sure you don’t go off the deep end, in the meantime go see Twilight she’s out of the hospital now, and can you ask her to drop by tomorrow I wish to speak to her about her brother.” He suggested. “Ok!” and with a poof she was gone. Twilight was practicing with her replacement leg when Rainbow dash poofed in. “Yikes! Rainbow Dash you scared me, I’m going to have to get used to there being other teleporters in town.” “Sorry, so how are things, and once again sorry about what happened.” Rainbow Dash said. “Oh, um you weren’t your self, and thanks for not killing my brother I heard on the new that he was found and now in custody, for wearing the same cloak as when he attacked the church.” Twilight said sounding a bit happier. “About that the Father wants to speak with you about your brother, and tomorrow I’m getting to the bottom of this.” Rainbow dash said. The two spent the rest of the night talking, as this would be the last kind of normal night for quite a while. Author’s notes: I will be starting a new fanfic to fill the 3rd slot as I’m done with the “bad” one, and I can’t start the spin off till a certain point in this one or it will spoil a lot. Post any constructive critism in the comments. :)
Ch. 5 Root of the problemChapter 5: Root of the problem With a poof Rainbow Dash and Matt appeared on a cliff over looking Appaloosa. “Ok so what’s the plan, and for that matter why are you even here.” Rainbow Dash asked of the human. “Well the most logical place for a cult base here would be in a mine, and to answer your second question, it sounds like the satanic order wants to turn you. The good father trusts you, but the rest of the Vatican order would prefer feet on the ground for this. I will stay out of your way, but will step in if you turn, that’s why I have this harpoon loaded with enough tranquilizers to keep an elephant out for a year.” He answered after some thought. “Oh, ok. Let’s go then.” Rainbow Dash said, a little taken aback, by the fact that the harpoon was for her. With a poof they were at the mining site. “Ok that place there looks pretty abandoned.” Matt said pointing to the boarded up mine entrance. They entered the mine in silence. Inside it was cool and rather damp. They found the shaft elevator, and when examined the button for level 26 was out lined in black. “You think this is it?” Rainbow Dash asked nervously. “Most likely. You go first then I will follow.” Matt responded. The ride down was loud and slow. Upon reaching the destination the doors opened to reveal a rather creepy chamber with tapestries that looked ancient and large modern human computer displays. There were both ponies and humans here they stared at her. Then the one that appeared to be in charge spoke. “Ah, you have come at last. When this world was first discovered I couldn’t dream how much it had to offer. Yet here you are master.” The elderly human said. Deciding now as good a time as any to get information she put on a sinister smile and altered her voice a bit. “So then human, tell me what have you and your group accomplished here.” “Yes master! We formed a chapter of the order on this world. We opened a portal to hell, and gave you your current body.” The man said, with a look of glee on his face. Impressive, maybe I can have some use for these fools. The voice said. “Well this is quite excellent-” she was saying when the elevator began to climb. She quickly realized that Matt must have called it back to join her. “So it isn’t really you, you brought someone here to kill us didn’t you!” The old man caught on. Bingo, kill them, all of them, NOW! The voice commanded. At the same time the cult followers were getting ready to fight readying guns, knives, and swords to fight with. Rainbow sprung into action, her body reverting to the more demonic form it had taken on the first night, and she swept the room over with her fire breath. She released lightning from her horns striking all who were welding weapons at the time. The rest she dealt out brutal melee deaths, executions, gutting, disembodiment, cannibalization, the list goes on. The elevator arrived and the doors slid open. “Oh, um looks like you got this then. So what did you learn?” Matt asked taken aback by the sight. “Nothing we don’t know, accept that they opened a portal to hell.” Rainbow Dash explained sounding rather casual. “Oh fuck! Where? Uh, computer!” The human said rapidly tried to make since of what he heard. “Ok says here it’s in the Everfree forest.” He said. “Now let’s poof out of here. This changes everything!” With that said, a poof latter and they were gone. There was a poof and they were back in the church, Father Montgomery and Twilight had been talking and suddenly looked up. “Oh your back any good news?” Twilight asked happy to see her friend. “No, they opened a portal to hell in the Everfree forest!” Matt said panic in his voice. “Oh dear, Rainbow Dash you will have to deal with this on your own only demons can live in hell.” Twilight, myself, and Matt have something to do in the meantime, that will tie up any remaining lose ends.” The father said trying to formulate a plan. “Ok, but what can I do about the portal.” Rainbow asked. “Killing the lead demon of this world should cause it to start to close, you should be able to get out before it fully closes.” The father answered. “Ok, night.” Rainbow Dash said as she walked towards the crypt, fighting cults takes a lot out of you. “Wait, Skootaloo came by earlier. She wanted to know if we found anything. She seemed pretty broken up about you being gone, I just thought you should know.” Twilight said, then there was a poof and Rainbow was gone. Skootaloo was sitting on her bed, why was Rainbow Dash gone, why her, why were there no answers, and why did it seem like there was no hope. She turned to her window, there was a rainbow light in the streets below, and with it a pare of red eyes. Then with a poof they were gone. Author’s notes: Insert usual stuff here. Finally my other stories are appearing on my page so check them out.
Ch. 6: HellChapter 6: Hell As she flew over the Everfree forest Rainbow Dash began to plan her attack. “The demons live in the superheated area beneath the surface, so my fire probably won’t do much. So I need a new ranged attack.” She thought out loud to herself. She then tried to use her magic. With a though she released two lightning bolts from her horns, and struck a tree. She smiled to herself; she was as magical as Twilight! The entrance to hell was with in view now; the large circular crevasse about a kilometer in diameter was truly a sight to behold. The edges were jagged and falling away as if the entrance was going to swallow the whole planet. From deep with in there was a orangey red glow, and screams could be heard from the depths. She was right over the opening now, the heat that radiated up from the crater was blowing bits of ash in to her eyes. With one last look to the blue sky she loved so much she folded her wings and began the plummet. She rocketed downward faster and faster. The falling rocks from the edges were slowly turning red hot, apparently being a demon made her fully immune to heat, as she didn’t feel a thing. She noticed that lining the edges of the crater were lines of ponies in chains being tortured by horrifying horned demons. She descended further the demons and forms of torture became more terrifying the deeper she went. She noticed a scrawny foal struggling against it’s bonds, as it was dragged towards a giant wheel of fire. Seeing this Rainbow Dash had to intervene. “Hey pick on someone your own size!” She hollered as she opened her wings and directed her self at the demon dragging the foal. She hit the first with lightning and impaled the second on her horns. Noticing the one she had impaled was still alive she put her fore hooves on it’s legs and pulled her head up, ripping the demon in half. She turned and prepared to jump back into the crevasse when rusted cast iron barbs suddenly shot up from the ground blocking her exit. No. You’re in my house now, attacking my people, you will play by my rules! The voice boomed in her head, and with that she was left with no option but to fight her way down to the bottom. She took of running she took note of the four main types of demons as she cut her way through them. Minor demons like the two she killed earlier, they were weak and not much of a threat. The medium demons were bulkier and put up an actual fight, and were twice the size of a human. The Fliers were giant bat like creatures with tentacles where there should be hind legs, lightning destroys them. Finally there were the behemoths she had bypassed the only one she had encountered so far, but it was massive and she really wasn’t looking forward to fighting them. She suddenly found an unwelcome realization. There stuck in a pit of lava burning but not dying was the cult leader she had killed just a yesterday. She was pulled from her shock bye a voice that boomed with malice from the bottom of the pit. “All titans group together at the nearest tunnel hub! Bring me this disappointment alive!” It said it had the same tone of command of the voice in her head, but instead of mystery it held power. Now you will face my wrath! The voice seethed. She rounded a few more corners and found her self in a large room with many tunnels branching off of it. The room was dominated by three of the behemoths. She decided to take the first strike. She flew up and lashed out with her lightning. The one that was hit didn’t even flinch. She dived at near sonic rainboom speeds and tore a huge chunk from it’s shoulder. It roared in pain, which that alone was loud enough to disorient her. It then struck her dead on with it’s massive fist. She was sent sprawling to the floor. Before she could get up she was hit by two highly coordinated attacks from the other two behemoths. “Dam gotta get out of here.” Rainbow Dash grunted as she launched her self the way she came. Wham! She was struck dead on by a behemoth that came out of her exit rout, the behemoth she bypassed earlier no doubt. As she spasmed on the floor it raised it’s massive foot and slammed it down on her. The world went black. Wake up my pet. The voice cooed as she came to. “Now that you are here. I would like to explain how this will work. I am Wrath One of the seven deadly sins and the commander of the planet’s hell. You will help us.” A massive, but not as large as a behemoth demon said as it stared at her form sprawled on the ground. “No, why should I help you?!” Rainbow seethed at her capturer. “If you refuse you lose everything, and gain nothing. If you help then you have everything to gain.” Wrath said. I can ever make you a deadly sin, how’s betrayal sound? The voice offered. “I have all the power I could need now, which you have foolishly given me!” Rainbow shot back. “Do you! This is true power! This is the power you could have, or do you like being weak?” Wrath shouted as he slammed his fist on the floor. Suddenly small cracks in the ground opened, and out of them came fire, lightning, chains, and skeletal arms, all lashing out at her. Rainbow Dash was sent flying across the room. "I will attack with or with out you. Your friends will die!” Wrath bellowed. They will go to their grave saying you failed them, join us, and you can visit them in hell! The voice pressured. “You are to weak to save anyone, but you can still destroy everyone!” Wrath screamed. You can be something more! Even if you did save everyone then what? You would be a freak an outcast, a cannibal! The voice had struck a nerve. Something inside of her broke. She sat there trembling for a bit. When she finally spoke her voice was hole and void of emotion. “Alright, What will you have me do?” She asked to the delight of Wrath. Minutes latter she was leading the forces of equestrian hell to the surface. The demons climbed the sides or flew with her. Suddenly the flyers wrath had sent to scout a head dropped like rocks and small glowing shafts were crisscrossing the visible sky. When she surfaced she discovered what it was. Humans, and they brought an army! Author’s notes: "If you paint a beautiful picture of heven few will care. Paint a horrifying picture of hell and people will run to the nearest church and beg God for forgiveness." -some guy from a documentary i watched Well shit hit the fan in this chapter. I will try to finish the story by New Year. The next chapter will explain what the father and twilight were up to during this chapter. Post in the comments your opinion on this change of events.
Ch. 7: Mortal InterventionChapter 7 Mortal Intervention Before she left, Father Montgomery asked Rainbow Dash if she could teleport himself, Matt, and Twilight to the Canterlot hospital. Rainbow Dash did as asked and with a poof they were just outside of the hospital. “Ok let’s start looking the sooner we find her the sooner I get my brother back.” Twilight said rushing off towards the front door. “Hey slow down, you’re going into enemy territory.” Matt called after her. “What how is this enemy territory?” Twilight asked. “Well although the majority of the Equestrian chapter was wiped out at Appleosa the remainder of the Canterlot sect is probably still active.” Matt said as he caught up to her. “Yes and this may not turn your brother back to normal right away but it will still push him in the right direction.” Father Montgomery said as they entered the hospital. “Speaking of which what are we even doing I was with Rainbow Dash when you two were planning this.” Matt said as they made their way to the section of the hospital used by the royal guard. “Well, the man who declared Princess Cadence dead when first contact was made, was a suspected member of the satanic order. This was latter confirmed as he was the cult leader Rainbow killed in that cave.” The priest said. “And because they make bad things happen we think Cadence is still alive and being held in the Royal Guard section of the hospital. They faked her death to get Shining Armor on their side so they could have access to the resources of the Royal Guard. “Ok here we are she would be somewhere in here so form up on me.” Matt said as he reached for his gun. “Wait what if they’re just normal guards in there!” Twilight whispered to him. “Good point let me handle this.” Matt said as he opened the door casually, and walked in. “Hey, what can we do for you, are you lost since this is our section of the hospital.” A royal guard asked as his two colleges began to approach. Matt only pulled a copper cross, apparently the symbol of the Vatican Order. This was met with a series of “Oh fuck”s as the three stallions tried to rush him. Matt pulled out his pistol with his free hand and shot them before they could reach him. Twilight guessed that the tube on the end of the barrel somehow dampened sound, as it was much quieter than Fluttershy’s pistol. “Ok we don’t know what she looks like so we’ll just follow you now.” The father said to Twilight. After a minute or so of searching, Twilight found an odd looking container. “Hey what’s this?” “That’s one of those stasis pods used on old colony ships right?” Matt asked Father Montgomery as he had been around back when stasis pods were still needed. “Yes I it most defiantly is.” The father asked. “Well open it!” Twilight said excitedly. The old priest moved to the control panel, and turned the key. With a hiss the container slid open revealing the pony of the hour. “Cadence!” Twilight exclaimed as she hugged the just waking alicorn. “Oh where am I what am I in and how long have I been gone.” Cadence asked still dazed by the stasis. “Little under half a year now. Twilight I’ll leave her to you would like to be back at the church to greet rainbow Dash when she’s done tying up that last loose end.” Father Montgomery said. “Ok!” Twilight happily responded. The trip back to Ponyville was long and tiring, so the elderly priest decide that he could take a nap as it was only evening. However sweet dreams never came. A voice was whispering of betrayal, fire was everywhere, a filly was crying out Rainbow Dash why? A newspaper flashed by “Second race war on Equestria?”, and a news report could be heard “It’s literal hell down there now, The things that came from below can only be described as demons.” Then he was on a ship looking out at Equestria and arguing with a soldier. “There are still thousands of ponies down there!” “Acceptable losses. Now take your seat!” The soldier responded. Then there was a large flash and the planet shattered. He awoke suddenly from his night terror. He didn’t want to believe it but he had to warn then, to end it before it get’s to bad. He picked up the phone and dialed the number of the U.C.o.E. orbital defense platform. “Howdy father what can I do for ya?” The familiar voice of the support hotline voice said. Father Montgomery paused, no one would belive him if he said a portal to hell had opened up so he said the one thing that would provoke a full military response. “I believe I found an Annunaki out post at these co-ordinates.” He lied, but he had to. Private Rodriguez felt the adrenalin rush through his body as the massive god slayer APC crashed through the thick forest. He had been stationed on the opposite side of human controlled space from the fighting, but if the Annunaki were here then they where out flanked and doomed to lose. The door opened up and he and the rest of the company piled out. There was no base, just a hole in the ground. Suddenly a winged, tentecled, horned monster flew up from the depths. He raised his LMG but held fire, as looks can be deceiving. In this case they weren’t as it breathed fire at the soldiers. He fired at it more were coming up now, they were dying before they could do much harm fortunately. There was a whoosh and a bat winged horned cyan pony with a rainbow fire mane was staring down at him. “What the hell is wrong with this planet?” Was all he could say. Author’s notes: New episode of mlp today! For any who care I just started a lp of pokemon mystery dungeon explorer’s of time on my youtube channel DarkDewgong4 Note: a god slayer APC is so large it takes of 3 lanes, and carries other vehicles as well as entire companies of soldiers.
Ch. 8: InsidiousChapter 8: Insidious The humans were firing on the Demons as they reached the surface, she knew she had to draw their fire away from the opening. Rainbow Dash noticed that there was a massive vehicle that the humans had based their defense around. It had machine guns, artillery, and missile racks all over it, so it was rather obvious why they based their strategy around it. Rainbow Dash swooped low, and one of the automated machine guns began firing at her. She swooped below the vehicle and breathed fire onto its rather weakly armored underside. Behind her she heard the death roar of a behemoth that tried to rush one of the human’s tanks. That however was soon drowned out by then a massive boom as apparently she had hit the fuel line. The humans were in sudden disarray, as their command post erupted in to fire. However the humans didn’t give up a rapidly changed their strategy from defensive and well thought out, to aggressive, and savage. Ah humans, how they are his chosen ones I will never know. For this is their true nature, this is how they fight. This is what they do when they believe they are going to lose. They fight savagely trying to force the enemy on the defense. The voice, which was notably louder, now said. It was true; The humans were using offensive tactics for defense. Rainbow Dash watched as a jeep rammed a behemoth, as well as a few humans where rushing and actually punching and tackling demons that got in their way, which was suicide as demons have massive claws. Rainbow Dash left the ground war to the demons she would be taking control of the flyers as they were being decimated by the human air force. She flew up, then dived down smashing though a helicopter, she then leveled out and doused the other helicopters with fire. An F-82 roared in at mach 8 and fired a barrage of missiles at her she shrugged them off and bucked the plane into tiny little shards of metal. The rest of the battle was over in a matter of minutes. She landed and looked over her forces, she had a good 2 thousand, and even more still climbing the chasm. “Ok, It’s on to Ponyville now, and when we get there, there will be no survivors!” Rainbow Dash roared, to any pony watching, she was a completely different pony then what she was before. Father Montgomery looked out a window of the church, another judgment class landing craft descended on Ponyville, which made three. Each one carried 8 companies of soldiers and the vehicles and air support to support them. No more APCs left for the forest, the U.C.o.E. was preparing the defense of the town. “The U.C.o.E just enacted copper contingency protocols. They want everyone in the safe zone they set up. Shall we go?” Matt questioned as he approached. “No I want to try to confront Rainbow Dash, and try to bring her back.” He informed. “Alright then, guess I will need this then.” Matt said as he checked the load on his rail gun. “Oh yes you will.” A familiar voice said as the door to the confession booth creaked open. Rainbow Dash stepped out and glared at the humans before her. “Rainbow Dash what have you done? Why are you doing this?” The priest asked in horror. “Oh, I’ve seen the light, or rather the darkness!” She said, like a kid playing with her food before eating it. “Sir get back this isn’t safe!” Matt said as he stepped in front of father Montgomery and leveled his rail gun at her head. “You betrayed me, you called the U.C.o.E. and told them to kill me because you assumed I had turned!” She bellowed. “Well were we wrong?” Matt asked, before he could take a shot he found himself gutted by her horns. “Ahh! Urgh! God dam you to hell.” Matt grunted out before dying. “I already am, and I’m loving every minute of it.” Rainbow Dash harshly replied to the corpse hanging from her horns. “You’re a monster!” The priest exclaimed as his college was dropped to the floor. “So?” Rainbow Dash said in a calm cold tone. The conversation was cut short as a tank dropped from orbit smashed through the roof and into the center of the church. It fired a hail of machine gun fire at Rainbow Dash, she simply raised her wings and they deflected the bullets. She was about to hit it with some fire of her own, when the main gun swiveled around and fired a round at her, her wings couldn’t stop that. She was blasted through the large front doors and landed unconscious in the field beyond. “Hey are you stupid, command enacted copper contingency protocols ten minutes ago!” The gunner called out at him. “Get in we’ll take you to the safe zone.” The gunner said apparently he had scolded the priest enough. Scootaloo was in tears. Her house on the edge of Ponyville, so it was one of the first hit. Her parents had died and her house was wreaked. She was in what was left of her bedroom. She heard something in the hallway. Then one of the smaller creatures poked it’s head through and looked around. It noticed her cowering in a corner, and prepared to attack. Suddenly a light shone upon it and then there was a series of bangs, suddenly it was in pieces on the ground. Scootaloo looked at the streets below to see what saved her. There was three soldiers, a hummer, a driver, and the gunner who had killed the demon. Private Rodriguez, who had just barely survived first contact watched as a orange Pegasus filly with a purple mane looked out over a ruble pile and down at him. “Hey we can take you to the safe zone, don’t worry we’re the good guys.” Rodriguez said to the filly. It cautiously stepped down the ruble and to the street below. Across the town peace was completely over turned as ponies fled, soldiers fought for every last inch of land, and demons rained hell on the unprepared. The town of Ponyville began to gain the likeness of Stalingrad as the forces of war unearthed man’s savage nature. Author’s Notes: Ok I’m holding voting on my page for what I do next so check that out. Apparently I can only write after I play hockey, so prepare for a shit storm of chapters as I have a tournament this weekend. So what do you think of this turn of events?
Ch. 9: AshesChapter 9: Ashes Father Montgomery awoke the next morning it the hastily constructed refuge camp with in the safe zone. That morning the gunfire and roars of the battle could be clearly heard. The priest looked up and was stunned at the sight; the ashes were falling like snow upon the town. He quickly got dressed, as he knew he would be busy today with the multiple funerals that would be needed. As he rushed out the door of the building he had spent the night in, one of the conventional sized APCs rushed by with multiple stretchers on it. Somewhere someone yelled “We just lost zone thirteen prepare the medical center to receive all personal assigned to that zone!” “Well that can’t be good.” Father Montgomery said knowing this would be a long day. -- The night had been long for a very certain Scootaloo, after a long drive to the safe zone, the soldiers had been given an assignment and had to go. Luckily she was able to room with the Apples who were also displaced by the attack. Her and the rest of the crusaders had gathered for a meeting in the tent that Rarity and SweetyBelle where assigned. “Well this is a once in a lifetime opportunity, would be a shame if we never got our cutie marks because we was scared!” Applebloom exclaimed. Her and Sweetybelle had been arguing over whether or not they could go crusading. “But this is bad! Even the human things can’t beat the monsters!” Sweetybelle protested. “I think we should take a look at what’s out there.” Scootaloo mumbled. “See, Scootaloo thinks it’s a good idea!” Applebloom stated triumphantly. “Cutie Mark Crusaders Demon Watchers!” the three fillies shouted before rushing out in to the road and hopping on to the under carriage of a passing Jeep. -- Out in the field at the foot of the hill that the church was on a Cyan figure began to move. Looking up Rainbow Dash noticed that the church was still partially standing. A glance over to Ponyville confirmed that her demons had been through here, so why was the church still standing? “Well got to fix that.” She mused before taking of a breathing fire on to the remains. What are you doing? She paused, the voice wasn’t it’s normal tone, but she got the message she should be fighting humans rather than burning ruins. The change in tone must be due to being blown in half and thrown through a wall. She was flying over the edge of the town destroying pockets of resistance and monitoring the movements of her troops. Then she heard it again. Why are you doing this? The voice sounded familiar of course it was her master so it should. Also it was right she should be fighting on the front lines not doing clean up. -- The girls had road the underbelly of the tank for a few minutes and the sounds of gunfire were much louder. “I think we should get of so we can observe from a distance.” Scootaloo suggested and her to comrades nodded in agreement. They dropped of the bottom and got a good look at what used to be their town. Picture some of the images of town hit with incendiaries during World War II, those towns were mostly brick, now picture what it would look like if everything was wood, and you have the idea. Their moment of shock was cut short when the tank violently exploded, and a dragon-winged cyan flaming mare swooped over head. “AH! Oh my gosh! We need to hide!” Sweetybelle shrieked and made a dash for the charred remains of o house. Applebloom and Scootaloo quickly followed. Inside the wreckage the three could see a battle. A squad of soldiers was facing off with three of the medium demons, and one behemoth. It seemed like it was over for the humans, one of them was screaming what sounded like nonsense in to his radio. There was a loud humming sound, and all the soldiers began to retreat back while fire at the enemy. Suddenly the flying contraption that was making the humming began to hover. The the air was filled with the roar of the three chain guns on the helicopter as it gunned down the medium, and the screech of missiles as it ripped the behemoth in two. “Ah think we got to be going now!” Applebloom stated and the three began to rush their way back to the safe zone. On their way back however, the helicopter was sent flying, and it smashed right into the road separating Scootaloo from her friends. “Scootaloo! What are we going to do!” Sweetybelle asked terrified. “You guys head back to the safe zone I’ll try to find a way around don’t wait for me I’ll be fine!” She responded before rushing down a alleyway. -- Rainbow Dash was pushing back some humans who were trying to make an advance. They she noticed that something was in her air! She whirled around to see one of those helicopters take out a behemoth and three mediums! “Welcome to Equestria!” she bellowed as she attacked sending it to the streets below. What is wrong with you, or rather, me, what is wrong with me?! The voice said, then something clicked; this wasn’t master, it sounded familiar because it was her. Back when she was weak! If part of her was blocking her from master then she would have to stomp it out. Hunting and tearing innocent ponies to shreds would do the trick. -- Scootaloo must have made a wrong turn somewhere. It was night fall, and she was at the safe zone, or rather the 10 foot tall segmented metal/concrete wall topped with razor wire and the occasional turret that sealed of the safe zone. She heard them approach, and she curled up ready to die, the monsters stocked around the corner, they were lead by a cyan pony with bat-like wings, horns, red eyes, and a multicoloured rainbow mane. Behind it was an assortment of demons that would make even discord cry with fear. “Rainbow Dash is that you?” The small orange filly whispered. To anyone watching it seemed like Rainbow Dash had gone cross eyed for a moment, however in her head: Rainbow Dash or at least the good part of her was standing on the alter of the church in a pure Pegasus form, and what she guessed to be the representation of her evil self, a cyan medium stood by the entrance. They where in the burning remains of the church. “Give me back my body!” Good Rainbow growled. “No, I refuse to be weak again! I refuse to be worthless!” Evil Dash shouted back. “Fine then I’ll take it back!” Good Rainbow Dash said brandishing one of the plasma claw gauntlets that some of the humans wore. They rushed at each other. Good Dash used her speed and flight to gain some quick hits, but then bad Dash punched her square in the face and unleashed some demon fire on her. Good Dash was left sputtering on the ground, her evil persona towering over her. “You can’t win I am powerful now, why would you want to be weak?!” The evil Dash questioned. “No. You can’t win because I am loyal to my friends!” As she bellowed this her element materialized around her neck. “Good bye.” She finished as she blasted her alter ego, allowing her to fall back into the real world with a new or rather old outlook on things. Author’s notes: Once again I would like to direct viewers to my page to vot on what I do next. Longest chapter so far, not by much. Good dash back evil is dead now. Dang it’s hard to write about someone fighting themselves! Music for this chapter: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rz3_i4bT4bg
Ch. 10: RevelationChapter 10: Revelation Rainbow Dash wheeled around and vaporized her underlings with intense flames. She then picked up Scootaloo in her mouth and flew over the wall, when she landed there where 6 guns pointed right at her. The humans appeared confused, here was the demon that’s been slaughtering them, but now it just saved a filly and isn’t attacking. “Burn demon!” Father Montgomery yelled as he ran forward and splashed a bowl of holy water on Rainbow Dash, then he coward behind one of the soldiers. “Really, Montgomery?” RD deadpanned. “What the fuck is going on?” One of the soldiers asked. “I’ve changed, or rather I’ve un changed…” Rainbow Dash said trying to explain. Suddenly a human wearing a trench coat and a ball cap jumped in front of the firing squad of soldiers and pointed a sword at Rainbow Dash’s neck. “I shall be the judge of that! I am Pierre Lemont, HERO 2nd class, now defend your self!” He lunged forward, and Rainbow Dash just barely managed to dodge, as she dodged she tossed Scootaloo aside so she wouldn’t get hurt. It was obvious that this was no ordinary human, the sword it wielded was a full 5.5 feet long, and it was wielding the sword with only one hand (note it is of European design so none of that ultra thin Katana BS). He swung again this time, she blocked the strike with her wings. “So you are fast and you can take a hit, can’t have that.” As he said that his sword erupted in a swirling green energy. “Look I don’t want to fight you!” Rainbow Dash yelled as she tried to take flight, she was slammed into the ground hard, this ‘human’ had telekinesis, no fair! “Well I think we should hear her out.” Montgomery said from behind one of the soldiers. Pierre formed an smg out of the trace amounts of metal in the soil and pointed it at the priest with his free hand. “What do you know that you aren’t telling us?” Pierre questioned. “Well, the monsters are actual demons from hell, and this is Rainbow Dash.” Montgomery said as fast as he could. “Well then, I believe that settles things then.” Pierre said as he sheathed his sword. “Wait what?” Montgomery asked. “We know everything else.” The super human stated as he walked away. “Can you tell us then?” asked one of the soldiers. The man paused and turned to RD. “If there isn’t any progress made by tomorrow night the U.C.o.E. will be firing a nuke in to the crater, and thus destroying the planet. If you really have changed then go to hell and finish this!” He said before resuming walking away. “Well now I think that you should go properly prepared this time so-” The priest was cut off by a poof. “Well that escalated quickly!” Rodriguez said, “Wait, Scootaloo! Looks like I’m saving you again.” He said as he rushed over to the barely conscious orange filly. -- With a poof Rainbow Dash was in Wrath’s chamber. “Well, what do you have to report?” the elite demon asked malice dripping from every word. “That your going to die!” Rainbow Dash said as she lunged at him full speed actually sonic rain booming it the cavern. The impact shook the cavern but she didn’t notice, how could she. She had the fate of everyone on Equis to worry about! “Huh, so you betrayed us. Well your still just a half breed, and I am a deadly sin!” Wrath said preparing to unleash his well, wrath. In one hand he materialized a massive sword, he slammed the other into the floor causing the same affect a before. This time she was ready, flying up to avoid it, only to be slammed into it by Wrath’s sword. “You are still weak!” Wrath taunted. Rainbow Dash took this moment to blast him with fire and lightning, to no avail. “Pathetic, to think that there are things as weak as you alive!” Wrath brought his sword down when something took over Rainbow Dash, and in a feat of herculean strength she caught the massive blade in her mouth, and ripped it out of Wrath’s hand. “I shall fear no evil, and bow to no demon!” She growled through her mouth. She plunged the sword into Wrath’s chest and sealed his fate. -- On the surface the demon’s felt their master dying and broke down sobbing. The humans used this time to slay the sobbing beasts. -- Rainbow Dash decided to speed up his fate by kicking the sword. In his last moments Wrath seethed out one final word. “Seraph…” As he said that word a light shone on Rainbow Dash, she looked up seeing that there was a hole in the roof of the cavern and a hole in the cloud cover. As she stared into the light, it changed her. The flames extinguished, her eyes returned to their normal shade, her horns shrunk and their colour changed to cyan apposed to black, finally the black bulging veins disappeared. Most astonishing of all was her wings, the leathery surface peeled away reveling white feathers. She flew up and towards the open sky. -- Pierre was confused, the three behemoths he had taken on alone had just stopped and had begun weeping, and then he stared in horror as they ripped their own hearts out. -- Rainbow Dash arrived at the safe zone in record time, apparently these new wings where better. She spotted Montgomery and walked over to him smiling from ear to ear. “Hay Father, how do I look?” She asked. “Oh! Oh my, you look like an angel.” The startled priest said. “Yeah, yeah, do you know where Twi is?” Rainbow Dash asked. “Oh over there with what’s her name, Fluttershy!” he answered. Rainbow Dash rushed over to the newly landed Judgment Class landing craft titled Thunder. She saw her two friends gathered by the loading bay. “Hey Fluttershy what are you doing home so soon, isn’t your tour done in a month?” She asked. “Oh, um, well I heard that there was an attack here so I ordered my fleet back here after we secured the new Somalia system. “Wait, fleet, ordered, what?” Twilight asked staring at Fluttershy as if she had grown a second head. “Oh I got promoted to admiral, it’s a long story.” Fluttershy answered. “Mind if I but in here, but may I borrow Rainbow Dash for a moment?” Father Montgomery asked. “What is it?” Rainbow Dash asked after being taken aside. “Well the scans of the Equis hell hole, match a unnatural formation we found on earth, it’s still small, but the point is the order has a ship coming to pick us up in roughly a month.” The priest explained. “Sure, sounds good.” Rainbow Dash replied, nothing could break he good mood. So you're coming to kill me then? Rainbow Dash’s jaw dropped. -- Author’s notes: I will up date this story with an epilog and links to the sort of spin off, and the eventual sequel. Votes are in and I have decided, I will be doing the FO:E, as well and the pmd cross over, as well as Aurther Currie on the Equestrian front. Well what do you think, leave another rating out of ten. Also are you somewhat looking forward to the sequel? oh and on another account i will publish the sequel to ytp... sometime
EpilogueFore note: I just wanted to rap up things on equestrian before I stamp this as finished and continue with le epic pot of epic that is le U.C.o.E. -- The following is the results of the story roughly two and a half weeks latter. Shining Armor was taken into a correctional facility on the moon. Scootaloo was adopted by Private Rodriguez, as he seems to be the best at taking care of her. A divide has formed in Equestria between the Celestia half that believes the U.C.o.E. is justified, and the more radicle Luna half that believes that the U.C.o.E’s actions were heavy handed, and further more that the U.C.o.E. has no place in Equestria. FIN Youtube Video -- “So you got any idea where on earth this Hell Gate is?” Rainbow Dash questioned Father Montgomery as she looked down at the tomb stone. “The only place one could be hidden. The red hot remains of China.” The elderly priest replied taking his eyes from the grave for the first time since they arrived. “I will never be able to forgive myself for what I did to him.” Rainbow Dash said solemnly. The pair were visiting Matt’s grave. “I think he would be proud of what we are going to do.” Montgomery answered. “Well I got to go, Twi is having a sleep over tonight, and I want to be able to finally know how Fluttershy became an admiral.” Rainbow Dash said and then with a poof she was off. Father Montgomery stayed a little while longer in the graveyard, then left. Despite being in a graveyard he was happy. The darkness was gone, and there was a new calling to be answered, a Seraph’s Calling. -- Author's notes: Did I just drop a title for the sequel? I think I did! Dam that was short. For Fluttershy’s story/U.C.o.E. spin-off/prequel: http://www.fimfiction.net/story/79521/for-the-glory-and-honor-of-the-ucoe Someponies I would like to thank: Me. Myself. I. Rainbow87dash (for being an epic follower the entire way through) Any pony else who liked and/or favorited this story. I had no editor so that’s it.
