Midnight's Journey

Another typers note before we begin~ It crossed my mind that Miss Snufel hasn't said a thing about the doctor or Lighting Blight... which is interesting because she says she meets both of them nearly at the same time and ends up having one, or both i cant really remember, follow her around. Most likely just the one but you never know with an Ender pony, which is what i am nicknaming her.

Story: I woke up and opened my eyes... to pitch blackness. I had heard from villagers before my transformation and they said that when a minecraftian dies they go to blank space. They said it was white and you couldn't feel anything in most cases, however they did say it had a slight chance of being black and not feeling anything. Seeing as my mind was kinda groggy as I thought that I figured I died in my sleep, which is not really a surprise seeing as I could sleep through 20 creepers exploding next to me.

A few moments later I realized I could taste blood, which should have been impossible if I were dead. Going off of that I assumed something was on my face and it had been bled upon. I pulled my head back from it and saw the dark red spot on a rainbow mane... or at least I had initially thought it was red when it was actually a dark purple, much like half my mane. As I realized only one pony had a rainbow mane I jumped backwards and yelled "Jason!" at that point I was confused as Rainbow Dash was as she woke up. She looked at the sky, seeing only 5 hours had passed.

"Did you have to wake me up like that?! Also, who's Jason?"

"You were the one laying down next to me! you should explain that... I don't know who Jason is by the way"

"Are you sure? It seems as if you would know somepony if their the first thing to pop into your head." She sounded cross for a reason I would figure out later on, way later on.

"Well I have no idea who it is." I was staring at the dark purple spot that was near the middle of her neck.

"Why do you keep staring behind me?" RD looked over her shoulder to where she thought I was staring

"I'm not... There's something on your mane and it tastes like blood, but its purple." I said slowly

"What?! when did I get blood on my mane?!" she asked frantically.

"Well... that may be my fault. I just kinda started bleeding in the middle of our sleeping and you decided to cuddle with me." I said quietly at first but looked at her accusingly for until after she had replied.

RD sighed "I thought it would be a little warmer with you instead of sleeping by myself." she looked at the ground for a few seconds "but you were the one who bled on me and you don't look like you were cut!"

I laughed a little and said "Rainbow, I have no idea what happened but thing is I am feeling a little light headed."

Rainbow Dash just flew off without another word. Since I was already awake I went and roused the rest of the sleeping ponies. After a little bit of grumbling and me sighing several times at how long this was taking we were under way again. Overall it took far longer than it I had thought it would, which is to say it took 25 minutes as opposed to the 5 I had originally planned. In anycase we walked the rest of the distance to the outskirts of Canterlot, where we were stopped by a giant wall of yellow hard-light. I know this sounds weird but its true, a few seconds later a sky blue pegasus with darker blue mane and tail appeared "Hello Mi- I mean random pony I have definitely not met before. who are you?" I should also mention that a battlefield had obviously been here before the walls were up as the ground had a lot of blood and explosion spots, meaning that not all the fighting was inside the capital city of Equestria.

I was kinda confused by the way he almost said my name and immediately denied he'd ever met me "Have you been following me?"

"Nope. But I think somepony has been judging by that light brown thing in the shrubs over there." he pointed to a bush that was on the edge of the forest that had a few different colors inside of it.

I turned around and looked at it, probably shoulda mentioned that before, and walked over to it "Who are you and why are you in that bush?"

The bush looked at me with dark brown eyes and replied in a trottingham accent "I was following the trail of what isn't supposed to be here and i've been trying to get inside that shield. Hey you! blue pegasus, mind letting us in there?!"

The pegasus looked at the bush and blinked a few times "Why didn't you just ask me that in the first place?"

A light brown stallion stepped out of the bush and said "I just got here a few minutes ago."

"I suppose that means your excused from talking to me?"

"It means that this is the first time i've seen you!"

I walked up to the shield and touched it. It was made of something that felt like it was made of leaves but was obviously not. "what is this made of anyways blue pegasus?"

The pegasus walked up to it "I am about 50% sure it's made of hard-light. very strong. was I doing something?"

"um... letting everypony inside your shield." I suggested.

"Oh right of course." an opening that was meant for about 20 ponies, not counting the ones that could fly. Everypony walked inside the bright yellow maze of walls that was formed. "I got this idea from something I did before," he looked at a glowing crystal that was about 2 meters in height and 1 in width so yeah you get about how big the thing was, “oh the crystal says that I probably shouldn’t talk about that. In anycase I want to get it on record that I got here as quickly as possible so the fact that almost everypony is dead need not get you down.”

“Is Luna still alive?” I asked. I looked back and saw that my entire army was too big to fit inside of the amount of walls. “Most of you need to stay outside. 500 of you will stay and accompany me farther inside.” I announced then turned back towards the Pegasus.

“Yes, she is still alive. Why did you want to know?” he looked between me and the stallion a few times then looked at a cave entrance where the lunar princess was talking to her remaining soldiers, which were about 650 in numbers if I were to estimate at all.

“I suppose it is, but why did you want to know?” the brown earth pony asked me

“Oh I just, ya know, wanted to say hello and maybe continue my plans. Don’t even ask because I am not telling you. Also, who are you?” I was looking at the brown pony.

“Oh my name is Time Turner and what do you mean you won’t tell me?” Time said

I thought that was strange and tilted my head to look so for a few seconds. Then I turned my attention to the Pegasus “What is your name?”

“I am Lightning Blight, odd isn’t it? Only destructive force I can use is hard-light and lightning.” He looked towards Luna, who was still behind several walls of hard-light.

“I am Midnight Snufel. Are these walls sound proof?”

“They used to be but i’ve learned to control that.” He said and opened a way through the walls that blocked our path. Me, Time, Lightning, and all 500 other ponies walked through the opened walls. As we neared Luna I split off from the group and signaled the part of my army that was inside the area to keep Luna’s guards busy. I walked up to Luna and said in a questioning tone “Hello, I think you know me?”

Luna looked at me confused “no, I have no idea who you are.”

“Follow me then, Princess Luna.” I said and walked towards the holes in the walls. Luna did not follow for a couple of seconds but then decided to follow. As soon as we were through the walls they closed again, sealing me inside of the walls which turned from half-translucent into completely un-see through. I smiled and wondered briefly why Lightning trusted me so much so quickly. I tackled the princess as soon as I got over my initial shock of the massive amount of magic used to do such a thing, stabbing her with my horn and blade in the side. Which was very effective for making her bleed exceedingly, the dark purple blood flowing from her as it had from my nose the night before.

“Why?...” she asked very confused.

“Because you and the alicorns, and winged unicorn in twilight’s case, are the symbols of what I don’t want to be here. You are the problem. Do you remember those terrible dreams you saw on the night you turned on your sister?”

“How do you know… about those?” she was still confused but grew to understand as I explained

“I made those dreams stand out, I even faked the dreams, used magic to do so and it stood out above the rest of the dreams and nightmares out there.”

“So you were the one who sparked the entire war?” she paused as if deciding something then said “well since you said that I may as well tell you what happened during that night.” So she told the story that I had told you about the night she saw those dreams, give or take a few details.

“Is that all you wanted to say?” I asked standing over her as she’d done to many towns, only with a menacing look on my face. I extended my hidden blade into the ground near her neck.

She sighed “I suppose so, but what will happen to the land when the sun and moon don’t move?”

“Do not worry princess, the sun and moon will go back into their natural orbits as soon as you’ve passed. Anything else?”

“No, that is all. At least it will be equal here in equestria I suppose.” She said and looked at my eyes with a defiant yet accepting stare.

“Very well then, tell Celestia that she has me to thank for dying… me and all of my supporters of course.” I stabbed the princess of the night diagonally through her neck and, after a few seconds of waiting, pulled it back out to see it recolored in the purple alicorn blood.
