A Colt's Darkness
Welcome back
Previous ChapterNext ChapterLuna, Twilight, and Sweetie Belle stood frozen at what they had just witnessed. Spirit was now dead. They couldn't have done anything to save him. They would have died as well. Chrysalis only looked down at her kill with a large frown.
"Honestly, that wasn't as fun as I had planned." She said. Sweetie Belle could barely stand due to sadness, but stood anyways thanks to her anger. She had activated her powers to their fullest extent and charged at Chrysalis. She went for a blunt hoof strike, but swiftly switched to sweeping her. Chrysalis fell to the ground and received a heavy ax kick to the neck. Sweetie Belle jumped back, and Chrysalis stood up and coughed. "Good, kick." She managed to choke out. "However, I want this to be fun. So I think I will render you useless for now." Chrysalis began to absorb magic, and then shot it at Sweetie Belle. Luna shot her own magic blast to counter her enemy's, but it seemed to have no effect. Twilight shot a powerful magic blast at Chrysalis, sending her into the wall. The magic stream launched by Chrysalis however, still ended up hitting Sweetie Belle. Luna and Twilight feared that this was just a powerful blast of magic, but they were wrong. There was a large cloud of dust that had been kicked up by the attack. When it cleared, Sweetie Belle was back to normal. Sweetie Belle looked at her hoofs and tried to summon her power, but she couldn't feel them.
"What did you do!?" Sweetie Belle yelled to Chrysalis as she tried to activate her powers. Chrysalis laughed at the young filly.
"Do you not remember?!" The queen cried. "I told you I learned two spells after Celestia's defeat! I used one on your friend, and I have used the other on you! I took your powers away! Now DIE!!" Chrysalis screamed as she shot a strong blast at Sweetie Belle. Right before the blast of magic made contact, a large blast of magic counted it. Chrysalis looked over at the source only to find an odd surprise. The earth pony who was wedged into the wall, Strong Gunner, had removed himself and shot down her magic with a gun he held in his mouth. Gunner, while standing on his hind-legs due to having both forelegs broken, shot a large volley of magic blasts. Gunner was eventually hit back into the wall and had Chrysalis' hoof push down on his chest. Gunner dropped the gun and laughed. "Tell me, what do you find so funny?" The queen asked.
"Oh, not much." Gunner replied. "Just happy you failed to notice something." Gunner continued to laugh and cough up blood while Chrysalis slowly revealed a confused expression.
"What do you mean?" She asked.
"Mines." Gunner said before jerking his head to the left, revealing a hidden string tied to his tooth. As he pulled his head, an explosive went off above them and fell down on Chrysalis. Whom unintentionally shielded Gunner from the rocks. Gunner then used his mouth to pull out an odd electronic object with a button on it. He jammed the button into Chrysalis and somehow kicked her off of him. She then felt an incredible amount of pain. She shrieked in agony and felt small explosives going of inside of her body. Luna and Twilight saw an opportunity and blasted Chrysalis with as much magic as they could muster. She was slammed into the wall and was taking heavy damage. After a few moments, the pain stopped and Chrysalis fell to the floor. She looked up to see Gunner chuckling to himself.
"W-what did y-you do!?" She shouted. Gunner began to laugh.
"Before we got here, I set a mobile mine with a string set as the trigger just above the room for a moment like now. I also mixed some super-mini explosives into the magic blasts I shot you with at the start of the fight. I chose those bullets because those are the only ones that actually enter the body. They enter the body to temporarily intercept messages from the brain to your nerves. I was only able to connect one of them to that trigger," Gunner said as he looked at the trigger. "but that was all I needed. When one goes off, they all go off!"
"That is very impressive, young one. To bad I must kill you. You would have been a great ally." Chrysalis said as she shot magic blasts at him. Luna and Twilight countered them as Sweetie Belle watched. Sweetie Belle began to feel an odd presence. Something was ringing in the back of her mind.Sweetie Belle tried to dismiss it, but she couldn't. The feeling was familiar. The world around her began to blur, twist and turn. She soon fell unconscious, and heard a familiar voice.
"Yes, I did it" The voice shouted. "I can use the Ras-" The voice had abruptly stopped. It was indeed familiar, but slightly warped. Sweetie Belle then heard somepony she didn't know, but the voice was clearer.
"Thirty seconds left. I just want to say good luck, my bo-" The voice also stopped. Sweetie Belle could hear a countdown, but she couldn't tell who was saying it. She soon began to countdown as well.
"Twenty five." She said. She turned back to see Chrysalis knocking Gunner back and knocking Luna out.
"Twenty four."
"Well, this was quite boring." Chrysalis said.
"Twenty three."
"Y-y-you won't win!" Twilight yelled.
"Twenty two."
"Oh, and how will I fail? I already killed your best fighter."
"Twenty one."
"I already knocked out everypony else and your friends above ground are barely holding up!"
"Twenty." Sweetie Belle said as she stopped counting down.
"I will not let this go, I must win!" Twilight said as she shot a large volley of magic at Chrysalis who effortlessly blocked it.
"Nice try, but I will still win. I haven't even activated a fourth of my power!" Chrysalis said as she just activated a fourth of her power. "Now, must I finish this?" She questioned.
"Ten, nine, eight," Sweetie Belle continued. Chrysalis looked over at Sweetie Belle.
"You, what are you doing!?" She yelled.
"seven, six, five, four, three," Sweetie Belle ignored her and finished the countdown. "two, one."
As Sweetie Belle finished her countdown, the ground began to shake. All of the small fragments of rock floated up, and the ground exploded. The hive was completely gone, yet everypony was safe thanks to Twilight's teleportation. Chrysalis was now floating in the air without a mark on her. She just stared at the ground as it erupted, letting fire and lava loose into the sky. The blast of this was so great that Chrysalis was actually blown back. When she recovered, she saw an odd figure with armor covering every inch of his body, his mane and tail were a silver shade and he held an ominous scythe. He was taller than Chrysalis, and looked much more threatening. He stood on his hind legs and showed all sense of authority. He was emitting a large amount of power. In this instant, he removed his helmet to reveal one they had all thought to be dead. Brawny Spirit. When he had removed the helmet, they all saw his smile. He didn't waste any time. He rushed Chrysalis swung his scythe at her. She was able to dodge the swing, but she felt a trickle of blood roll down her face.
"Hi!" Spirit shouted as he flung her to the ground. Chrysalis flew into the air to reveal her own magic armor. It was almost an exact replica of Celestia's. She flew at Spirit and struck him in the face. He was completely unfazed. "Now, I know that you're powerful. So let loose!" Spirit shouted in delight. Chrysalis felt a large amount of force on her stomach, Spirit had slammed his hoof into her so hard that she fell to the ground puking. Spirit lowered himself and walked up to her. Chrysalis activated all of her power and struck him in the face. Spirit was sent flying into the distant hills.
"How did you, of all ponies, get so strong!?" Chrysalis yelled. "You were only dead for five fucking minutes!!"
"Silly queen, one minute here is a week in Hell. As you will soon discover." Spirit said as he formed magic around his hoof in the shape of fingers. Energy left his "fingers" and formed a ball of purple and red energy. It was spinning at an incredible rate. "When I was in a coma, I dreamed up a lot of things. One thing was called 'anime'. This technique, is something I got from an anime." Spirit said. Chrysalis used her magic to search Spirit's heart for a weakness, but found that there was nothing. There was no emotion whatsoever. The only thing there was a thirst for blood. Chrysalis extracted herself from his heart and blasted him with all of her might. Spirit took the blast with almost no problems. Spirit rushed towards Chrysalis, easily doubling the speed he attained during the end of his fight with Celestia. He rammed the ball of magic and energy into Chrysalis. "RASENGAN!" He shouted as the ball tore through Chrysalis. Her power seeped into the air, but was absorbed by Spirit. As Chrysalis' body had been completely destroyed, leaving no remains, Spirit turned to everyone else and wiped out the remaining changelings. His comrades all looked at him with awe, and Sweetie Belle was on the verge of death. Spirit walked over to her and sat next to her. He then leaned in and bit her. Giving Sweetie Belle her powers once more.
"Spirit, is that really you?" Twilight asked. Spirit turned to her with a smile.
"Yeah, its me! When everypony gets stronger, go to the crystal empire. Sombra is there and I want to fight him! Besides, I found out many things when I had died." Spirit said as he flew off, heading to the far north. Everypony stared at him, their only hope for victory. He was planing on tanking the rest of the war on his own, but Twilight knew she wouldn't be left out.
Author's Note
Yeah. I bet you all saw this coming. This will be Spirit's "overpowered" mode. He will meet his match soon enough. The next chapter or two will be about Spirit training in hell. I hope you all like it! Also, try to guess what video game character he is somewhat representing in this chapter. Oh, and his speed in this fight is double what it was when he fought Celestia. However this isn't his max speed. He is also heartless now, the only thing he really cares for is his comrades, war, and bloodshed.
