Chronicles of The Edge: A Return to War
Chapter 3: Invasion of The Darkness (Crossover Part 1)
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI need to start this off by stating that this is my first attempt at writing a cross over event, therefore the next few chapters will have parts written from a first person perspective, in addition to my usual style, I'll try to seperate each part so it isn't too confusing. The title says it all but I'll tell you now what my crossover contains, "The Darkness", mainly after the events of "The Darkness II". Don't down vote my story or chapters because I didn't do it right, but let me know how I can improve in case I decide to do another cross over in the future, and so I can fix the issues in these.
Also this is my last warning that the Chapter you're about to read may not be safe for work and has more profanity than usual, I advise you to make sure you're in a suitable location to read this, and it isn't after dark.
Thanks,
DW Bloodfin
"It took me quite some time to crawl out of hell, you know, after I lost the Darkness. I was struggling, but I had to get out, the Angelos had Jenny, and I wasn't letting her get away from me. Somewhere along the way I was broken, I could feel it, I just couldn't keep going, that's when it found me again. I'll be honest it was pretty fuckin' pissed, but can you blame it? Anyway I let back in, I know, I know, stupidest thing I could've ever done, but I had to get out, and I knew it wanted the same thing. Fast forward a couple of years and there I am, hanging out in my mansion when some guy from the government waltzes in and takes a seat in my office, he looks at me and says 'Jackie, we know about all the stuff you've been into, we also know about your little 'thing'. I want you to know that we can bring you down anytime, just a few lights and you're done. We want you to help up with a little problem. You make it go away, and we'll leave you alone.' Before I knew it they had me hooked up to some freaky machine, a few guys in hoods standing around in a circle, chanting or some shit like that, trying to open a hole in the floor. I looked at it for a second, partially amazed at the fact it worked, then they threw me in. Now I'm not sure what they thought I could do when they threw me in during the day, but I knew who I had to kill. Now I just needed to find him."
Bo sat alone at the window, Fluttershy was busy in the kitchen making dinner, he tried assuring her that he wasn't hungry after his fight, but she didn't care, he needed to eat whether he wanted to or not. "Okay, it's ready." The timid pegasus slowly walked in to notice Bo by the window, she knew something was wrong, but she didn't know what. "Bo, is everything okay. I know you said you didn't want to eat, but I think you'll feel better after you do."
Bo kept staring, slowly he took a breath before replying. "I feel fine, it's just that something isn't right. I can still sense something, something far more evil than anything I've killed before, of course that's not hard but I don't want to scare you with that story."
Fluttershy looked at Bo, wanting to comfort him, but not knowing how. She thought for a moment before constructing her sentence. "Maybe there is, there are a lot of evil things in Equestria, some are right in the Everfree Forest over there, but I don't let that scare me, and I'm a pegasus thats afraid of heights. You just have to keep going with what you know is safe and take everything else as it comes, plus I'm sure you can handle anything that's out there."
Bo turned to face his friend. "You're right, perhaps a nice meal will put my mind to rest." He smiled and stood up to follow the yellow mare into the kitchen when they heard a knock at the door.
"Oh, I wonder who that could be." Fluttershy walked over to the door, Bo close behind her in case someone was looking for him.
Slowly Fluttershy opened the door to find Princess Celestia, the two could make out a scowl on her face as well as her mane flowing in the breeze and her wings tucked against her side. A group of rather tough looking guards stood behind her, looking ready for a fight. "I thought it wouldn't hurt anything to let you roam around of your own free will, but clearly I was wrong. I thought I could finally trust that you wouldn't go back to your barbaric ways of life, but after today I don't think that's the case."
"You can trust Bo, he only killed her because she was going to hurt me and Twilight." The yellow mare looked at the princess reassuringly, she didn't want the princess to banish Bo for killing someone to save her life.
"The fact isn't why he did it, the fact is that he did it. If he can slip into killing something that easy, why wouldn't he kill somepony just for brushing up against him on the street?"
"Princess it isn't-"
"I see where this is going," Bo cut into the conversation to save Fluttershy the trouble of defending him. "To the moon is it? I know you banished your own sister to the moon just because she wanted a little bit of respect. Well go ahead, get rid of me, it's exactly what you wanted since I got here." Bo was standing in a circle of guards now, he hadn't realized that he had slowly walked forward, causing the princess to stumble back in fear. "I'm not going to kill you, I'm not a violent person unless I need to be."
Celestia stood tall now, a wall of guards stood between her and Bo. "Regardless I have to lock you away until I can be absolutely certain you pose no threat to my kingdom, I assume you won't resist and try to escape while we put these chains on you."
"No chains, my only condition and you'll have my full cooperation." Bo stood firm with his statement.
"Bo, why aren't you going to resist, you didn't do anything wrong?" Fluttershy was a bit shocked that he was just giving up.
"I'm still new here, it's her kingdom and I have nothing to gain by putting up a fight with the ponies I swore to protect. What kind of Dragon would I be if I just let go of everything I stood for and killed the innocent?" He looked at Fluttershy, his calm and certain demeaner comforted her. "I'll be back, I promise"
"Okay, as long as you know what you're doing." The mare looked a little heartbroken still, but slowly she slipped into her house to leave the guards to their duty.
"Alright, let's go." Bo and the princess both walked towards the chariot, Bo casually stepped into the cage attached to the back and layed down, he was tired and needed the rest. It wasn't as soft as the bed Fluttershy was letting him use, but it was better than nothing. Slowly he drifted off to sleep, the long day now behind him, but the thought of killing Serena still haunted him. Made it difficult to stay asleep. He was in for a rough few nights, and he was going to spend them alone in a dungeon, talk about hard luck.
