My Little Destroyah: Rise of the Crystal King

Ch 11

Darkness, and smoke. That was all Twilight saw when she was sealed in her black cacoon.

"Hello?"

Of course there was no answer and Twilight rolled her eyes for it. But as she searched the endless blackness she eventually came across a large crystal the size of a vanity mirror. She looked herself over and fixed up her scruffled mane. That was until her reflection moved when she didn't.

"Hello."

"Wait what? Who are you."

The mirror image stifled a laugh. "Im you! The part of you that hungers for revenge against that monster!"

Twilight gained an annoyed look. "I dont want revenge."

"But you do! Do you not remember what he did to your pet and mentor?"

Twilight had a brief flashback of the gory battle. The terrifying shrieks of Destroyah, the screams of her mentor and the kaiju king.

"Yes I remember but that wasnt him. That was his most primal bestal part."

The image in the mirror shifted to the hissing aggregate Destroyah.

"You know I can do it again! I am a ticking time bomb and you know it! I could slaughter your friends in a heart beat!"

Twilight pressed her ears flat against her head annoyed with the image but also frightened by its words. But the image warped again to show Nightmare. The black mare grinned.

"You know you hate me too! I took your teacher's seat of power!"

"NO! This is all an illusion Sombra!"

The black mare hissed and shifted to the demonic unicorn king. He smirked flashing his razor sharp teeth.

"Aww how clever of you I wanted to have more fun with you. But you dont dare deny it. You hate them and want nothing more than to see them die."

Twilight snorted. "As if. I may not be happy that Princess Celestia is gone or Spike but Destroyah and Luna are my friends I CANT hate them."

"But of course you can! You let ME into your head!"

Black shadow tendrals rose from the ground and wrapped around Twilight's limbs and neck, working their way around her body and up her horn desperatly trying to consume her.

"Now.." The king's voice purred in a soothing manner. "Let me in and help you my dear little Apprentace. I will teach you to feed on hate and fear."

Destroyah's head snapped around when a black crystal dome exploded reveiling a rather pissed looking Twilight. She walked up to the group hate gleaming in her eyes, her colors dulled, and purple smoke rolling off of her eyes. She placed herself between Chrysalis, Destroyah, Discord, and Sombra. The mad king grinned.

"Well if it isnt my apprentace Twilight finish these for me would you?"

Twilight grinned evily and reared ..

Only to twist around and sock Sombra in the face sending the king flying back his lip split and dribbling blood. The king grimaced as Twilight's colors returned and the smoke disapated. She stomped angrily over to King Sombra that hate still in her eyes but not for Destroyah or Nightmare but for HIM.

"How dare you try to turn me on my friends!"

The king flinched at the power her voice held.

"They may have done bad things but they are my friends! I forgive them for their faults and crimes against me! And I wont let a bully like you get in the way of what I have!"

Destroyah looked behind him as Spike put a clawed hand on his shoulder. The baby dragon winked at him before dissolving presumably forever. But before he could really think about it his attention was drawn back to Twilight. A blinding light was comming off of her body and when it dissapeared she had two large wings adorning her back. Destroyah recognised the regal presance of an alicorn and almost pittied Sombra for the beating he was going to recieve from her. The king skitterd back hissing at the newest threat. He roared in hate and the black cacoons that once held the empire's populations cracked open showing off colorly drained ponies each glaring at them.

"Minions finish them!"

Twilight herself was blindsided by a brainwashed Cadence. Chrysalis was engaged by Shining Armor. Discord was taken on by Rainbow Dash. Destroyah however kept his focus on King Sombra. Destroyah rushed to the king weaving between changelings fighting off brainwashed ponies. The mad king stood atop the corpse of the dead minotaur. Destroyah charged him and Sombra greeted the kaiju locking blazing red horns. Destroyah and Sombra grunted under the effort they where both exerting. Destroyah suddently pulled back and swiped at Sombra with his claws but rather than stumble forward Sombra pulled back as well avoiding the pearly white blades. Sombra teleported himself behind Destroyah but he did not count on Destroyah's tail to be as deadly as his front end. The king was immediatly seized when he teleported and Destroyah flung him into one of the crystal homes. Before Destroyah went after him he felt something from the minotaur. It was still ALIVE in some twisted form. Destroyah broke its skull open and brains spilled out as well as a silver clean cut crystal. Destroyah wasted no time in swallowing it and going after Sombra. The king ran out of the home and faced Destroyah. Sombra coated himself in a purple dome of energy rung by purple flames. Destroyah flew back to avoid the blast of energy. Destroyah landed and hissed. Sombra opened a purple and black portal in the ground and scrambled in. The portal closed and Destroyah flew up just as Sombra lunged out of the ground at Destroyah's claws. The demon hissed and blasted the area where Sombra was encircling him in fire. The king roared and transformed into his smoke state.

"Bastard is as slippery as Hedorah!"

Destroyah channeled the energies from the amulet and added it to his micro oxygen spray. When it blasted the smog that was Sombra the cloud of black magic writhed in pain as it reformed into Sombra. Destroyah landed ready for close combat again. But Sombra pulled out a black clean cut crystal and it fused with his horn they crystal now inside of the red wickedly sharp thing. Black smoke began to gather around Sombra's hooves and it stayed there. Destroyah loosed his beam again but the cloud simply ate the energy. Sombra smirked and charged Destroyah met him and they locked horns again. Sombra began to push Destroyah back but the demon used Sombra's hooked horn against him and pulled the demon unicorn in. Destroyah unlocked the horns and bit into the armor on Sombra's neck puncturing it with realative ease, but it was so thick his teeth didnt penetrate his neck far enough. Sombra placed a metal hoof on the floral pattern of Destroyah's chest and kicked him back. The demon kaiju slid back his claws preventing him from going far and at the same time ripped open the protective neck armor. Sombra hissed in hate and charged Destroyah. The demon was ready and they grappled metal hoof to claw. Sombra bashed his head into Destroyah's momentaitily disorienting the demon but Destroyah latched his tail to Sombra's neck holding the kings still for a bit and then he used the spike in his wing. The claw game down in a slash making a crecent cut over Sombra's right eye before throwing the king at the crystal tower that was the palace. Then Destroyah had a wicked idea that brought an evil smile to his face. Destroyah ran after the king. Sombra retreated into the palace spreading his black magic in it revieling ancient corridors that where not previously there. But Destroyah knew there was only one place to go. Up.

The demon flew up the tower and came to the tip waiting for Sombra. The demon unicorn king eventually arived the tower now saturated with his magic. Sombra cut off the exits with his black crystals and stood waiting for Destroyah to make a move. Destroyah charged Sombra and black crystals grew in his path. The demon had to swerve and jump to avaiod the deadly pointed minerals. Then they began to fire off black arcs of lightning. Destroyah was surprised bbut he dodged them before getting to Sombra. He was only allowed one quick slash up the king's side before he was forced to move again by projectiles, lightning, and growing crystals. Again Destroyah repeated his actions over and over taxing the kings unholy powers. Then when Destroyah came over for the final time grabbing Sombra's horn in his mouth and ripping it off his head. The dark shadow king roared in pain and slumped to the ground mending his wounds on the verge of being unconsious. Destroyah broke a crystal blocking the exit and flew to the base of the tower. He placed Somabra's horn where the crystal heart was. Shadows where litterally ripped from the brainwashed ponies mind ending Sombra's control over them and they collected around his horn. Green energy began flowing from the crystal buildings once more and blasted the horn. The black power surge crystal dropped as the horn disintigrated and the green blast of energy ran up the tower and into the sky. Sombra's scream of pain was heard all over the empire. Destroyah walked out from under the tower with his prize in his jaws. The ponies and even changelings cried out in joy. However they where silanced. Destroyah realised they where all staring behind him. The demon turned around to see a very tired Sombra his horn mended and his wounds mended to the point of non fatal. He was breathing herd and sweating glaring at the kaiju.

"Y - you! I- w-will kill you d-demon!"

Sombra reared to strike-

-and slumped to the floor defeated. The croud erupted in cheers again.
