Runia Impirii

We all made our way across the bridge on the other side stood the ruins of a castle.

I could tell right away that the door was barricaded from the other side.

“Great. Front door is locked down tight.” I commented.

“There… there isn’t any other way in…” Twilight said as she fell to her knees.

“How are we going to get in?” AJ questioned.

“Oh! Oh!” Pinkie began.

“Not now darling… we have to think not throw a party!” Rarity cut her off.

“We could always just…” Dash began.

“If you want to get an arrow through your wing and get captured… go right ahead. That is what I promise will happen to you. And if you do. They won’t get farther than getting you into the cell before I break in and go berserk on them.” I commented.

“Oh…” Dash said backing away a little bit.

“All out of ideas it’s up to you entirely.”

“Ebon can I talk to you pleeeeaaaaasssssseeee?” Pinkie asked dragging me back.

“How? HOW? HOW?”

When she dragged me back she let me go.

“Okay Pinkie go ahead.” I said.

“Just break down the door! They forgot that you can…” Pinkie began.

I stared at her, “What the… he…”

“Well in order to carry that armor you have to be strong! And Twilight and Rarity can boost your speed a little bit giving you enough momentum to break right through the barricade!” Pinkie responded.

“Dude she knows. Give it up. She won’t tell a single soul though.”

‘Thanks for telling me NOW!’

“Okay Pinkie. I’ll try…” I replied.

“And you can up it with your super strength!” Pinkie said.

I got into a great position to charge the door.

Pinkie explained the plan to each of them. None of them had a better plan and Twilight knew I could clear the door.

“Okay I’m ready.” I stated.

“On the count of 3…” Twilight said as she charged up a spell.

“3…” I said.

“2…” Twilight added.

“1…” I finished.

I charged forward as the spell slammed me in the back. I felt a hell of a lot faster.

I slammed into the door with enough force to shatter it and the barricade on contact. I sent the guards on the other side flying in every direction.

I slipped at the worst time and slammed into a wall which broke my momentum and face planted against the ground.

“OH THAT’S FUCKING PRICELESS!”

Dash and Aj broke out laughing.

Twilight was trying to hide her laughter as she helped me up.

Pinkie was poking at one of the unconscious guards.

“Great…” I stated with a little distaste.

“Come on! We have an evil being to defeat!” Twilight shouted all of her friends gathered around.

Then a very slow, very sarcastic clap echoed through the hall.

“Bravo! Bravo! You all put on quite a show to get here but I’m afraid your journey ends here. With moi. The greatest Night Hunter ever to exist.” The stallion began.

“Oh great I thought he drowned in his own fathers cum.”

I snickered.

“WHAT’S SO FUNNY?” He screamed.

I whispered what Lord had said to me to Twilight. She had a lot of trouble concealing her laughter.

“OH FUCK YOU ALL I’M JUST GOING TO KILL YOU!” He screamed.

“He’s all talk and no game. That won’t change. No amount of training or power can fix that fucking broken piece of gayness.”

“Okay then Funny Man. I’ll fight you.” I stated stepping forward.

“Ha. You’re nothing compared to me now. I am all powerful now! YOU WON’T SURVIVE!” He screamed.

He leaped forward and vanished.

“Psha. So easy. He’s coming from the top.”

I slashed in a large arc blocking his first attack.

He pulled back and slashed at me wildly.

I dodged and blocked all of his attacks.

He jumped back and I could tell he was planning something. He moved faster than I could recognize and I prepared to defend again.

I heard a scream come from behind me so I spun around to face him.

“This ends now. Surrender and die and she’ll be able to survive a little longer.” He stated. His sword was at Fluttershy’s throat.

Both Dash and Applejack moved in.

“None of you move or she dies.” He stated.

“You won’t be able to save her unless you go berserk… You won’t be able to move fast enough to stop the sword in your current state.”

I took in a deep breath, “Not… so… fast…”

“Oh that’s a new way of doing it.”

“Wait where’d he go?” The Vampony questioned.

“Right behind you.” I replied.

“What the…” He stated.

I drove the tip of my blade into his back, “Let her go. Or you will die.”

He swung his sword around and tried to cleave my head off. I was to fast for him now.

He leaped back in an attempt to get away.

“Ha. To slow.” I said as I sliced down.

He barely made it out of the way I still managed to cut him cleanly on the chest.

“FUCK!” He screamed as he was sent flying onto the floor.

“You put on quite a show…” I began.

“No… No…” He stammered.

I brought my sword over head, “But I’m afraid your life ends here. With moi. The second greatest Night Stalker.”

“I’m flattered.”

He had no time to dodge as my sword cleaved through him. Instead of spraying the area with blood his remains burst into flames and turned to ash.

I felt my own rage end, “One less vampony exists now.”

“What… did…” Dash began.

“After Nightmare is defeated… I’ll explain it.’ I responded.

I slowly walked back to them.

“Fine. But don’t think any of us will forget that.” Dash stated.

Twilight stepped closer to me, “Thank you… Without you we may not have been able to save her…”

I lightly embraced her hands, “I’d do it again and again. For any of them… and for you I’d do anything.”

She looked longingly into my eyes and I gently leaned forward and kissed her. Her tongue grazed my teeth tasting the fresh blood on both of them.

“I guess love is blind. I was told once long ago, Love is blind. It doesn’t know right or wrong, good or bad, living or dead, it just knows what it desires. I forget by whom.”

Her friends watched in an odd mix of emotion.

We broke apart.

“I heard from a wise-pony once, ‘Love is blind to right and wrong, good or bad, love only know what love wants.’ I may not be fully good. But I’m still going to try.” I stated.

“Kiss ass. But thank you for flattering me.”

‘Suck a dick vamp. I was talking about the Pony who told you that.’

“We have one last fight to deal with. Nightmare Moon. Then everything’s going to go back to normal…” Twilight said slowly as she stepped towards the stairs leading to the last place in the castle we had to check.

“Let’s kick some flank!” Dash said as she stepped up.

We all stepped up and in some form or another vowed we’d defeat Nightmare Moon.
