Rainbow Dash scoffed as she kicked the door in. "Arrogant cow, honestly! Why do they even let her attend?! She's nothing but trouble!"
"Dash, I've only got so many doors." Gilda grumbled as she followed her in and put her door back in place. "Seriously one more kick and this door falls apart I swear..."
"Oh excuse me! I'm just kind tired of having to put up with little-miss Queen Bitch!" Rainbow retorted as she slumped down on the couch, massaging her temples tiredly. "It's bad enough that Scoots has gotta deal with that shit from the twerp Diamond and her little sidekick Silver... who's to say Sunset won't turn her sights on her next!?"
"I get ya Dash." Gilda said as she slumped down and turned on the television and the firestick. "Alright. What movie ya wanna watch Rainy?"
"I really don't care." Rainbow groaned before laying down on her back. "As long as it's mindless violence with loud explosions, I really don't care..."
*BOOM*
"Nice choice!" Rainbow smiled without looking at the TV.
"Uh... that wasn't the TV Dash." Gilda said. "I haven't selected anything."
Rainbow blinked before glancing out the window... and seeing a powerful red beam of energy erupting from the city. "What... the hell... is that?!"
"Whatever it is? It's not our concern." Gilda said as she chose something. "Holy shit Dash they actually got Getter Robo on Hulu!"
"Gilda... do you not remember exactly WHERE Scootaloo lives?!" Rainbow screamed as she smacked that remote out of her hands.
"Wait... FUCK!" Gilda shouted as she grabbed her keys. "You're riding bitch!" She shouted as she hopped darted out the door.
The two girls weren't the only ones whose attention had been drawn to the pillar of energy. On the opposite end of the city, three figures wearing hoodies rushed out of restaurant as they saw the pillar of red light erupting from the center of the city.
"What the hell is that!?" The youngest of the trio asked.
"I wish I knew…" The more skeptic one shrugged as she glanced at their eldest comrade. "What do you think, 'Dagi? Could it be-"
"No, it's not magic. This feels... different." The eldest of the trio stated as she stared at the pillar for a few seconds before smiling maliciously. "Whatever it is, it's powerful. Probably even more powerful than that old coot that banished us…"
"W-wait, seriously?!" The youngest one asked in shock.
"Yes... and that power might just be our ticket to finally ruling this pathetic little world!" She turned her attention back to the two with determination in her eyes as her necklace was engulfed in an ominous red glow. "And we're going to make that power our own, no matter what it takes!"
In a more suburban part of the city, the pillar of energy caught the attention of another girl as she was writing down her report for a class assignment. She wore a lab coat, had lavender skin and her hair was tied back in a bun with a pencil stuck into it.
"OK, if my research is correct, this should-"
Suddenly, all the machinery in her room started going haywire, repeatably beeping and their lights flashing red, startling her out of her chair. "Sweet mother of-what the heck is going on?!"
Her canine companion leaped out of his resting place on her bed and onto the desk, barking hostilely at the window. Confuse and curious, she got up and opened the widow to see the same massive pillar of red energy shooting out of the city.
"My god..." The girl whispered, adjusting her glasses. "What on Earth is that?!"
Sunset could only smile as she felt the energy flow through her body. "This… this power…this rage! It's...perfect! I can… I can feel it all!" She cackled as she summoned a powerful cyclone of energy, ripping apart the creatures surrounding her in an instant.
"Oh yes... oh this is going to be FUN!" Sunset shouted as red liquid dripped from her mouth and onto the remains of one of the monsters, melted it away. "I HAVE FUCKING ACID SPIT!? HELL YEAH!"
With newfound confidence she flew upwards, bursting out of the building and bolting straight towards the nearest demonic creature and slammed her dragon-fist through its ribcage. "HEY ASS CLOWNS!" Sunset shouted, getting the other creatures attention. "You've reached the telemarketing company of ME KICKING YOUR FUCKING ASS!" At that she summoned up a fiery tornado and began cleaving and burning through the monsters. Not a single one was spared from her wrath before she arrived outside and faced the one that summoned all of them. "AND WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU ASSCLOWN!?"
The figure gave her a twisted smile. "I am Black Hand, the Entity of Death!" He stated as he summoned a sphere around himself and several of his Undead Warriors began to surround her. "And you shall be one of many who shall join our ranks!"
"... how about FUCK YOU I'M NOT DYING HERE!" Sunset shouted as she burned through half of the warriors he summoned before slamming and slashing the others.
"Amusing... but ultimately futile..." He stated, his right hand glowing ominously as he fired a beam that took the form of a serpent. "You shall accept death's embrace as all of us have, only then will you and this world know true peace..."
"SHUT THE FUCK UP!" Sunset yelled as she swiped and slashed his jaw off. She then slashed the serpent and the arm off before melting it with her napalm breath.
Black Hand roared in pain as he held what remained of his arm, black ooze dripping out of the wound. "You… you arrogant WENCH!" He snarled as several of his Undead Warriors surrounded him. "You dare refuse my gracious offer!?"
"Gracious?! You call murdering and creating zombies a 'gracious offer'?!" Sunset roared as she spewed napalm at them once again. "You can take your offer and SHOVE IT!"
"Be it at young age or elderly, everyone and everything is consumed by the embrace of death!" Black Hand explained as his minions summoned a circular barrier to block the acidic blood. "You are no different! By my hand or another, or even old age, you will die!" He continued as his minions proceeded to summon eight massive serpent heads.
"Sure. But I'd rather not be used as a puppet! I'm done living like that you decaying piece of shit!" She shouted as she spewed fire at him once again. Unfortunately for her Black Hand was two steps ahead of her, several more of his undead warriors quickly positioned themselves between her blast and her target as cannon fodder while the serpent heads immediately lunged at her. Two of them quickly attempted to attack from both sides only for her to fly upwards to avoid them... and then three more of them quickly surrounded her, blasting her from all angles.
Quickly Sunset threw up a barrier between her and the beams. "SON OF A BITCH, ARE YOU THAT MUCH OF A COWARD?! YOU REALLY THINK THAT JUST HIDING BEHIND ENEMIES WILL STOP ME?! I'LL FUCKING RIP YOU APART!"
The serpent heads quickly bit into the shield, each one either attempting to rip through it or blast it in the attempt deteriorate its power. "I prefer to think of it as being tactful." Black Hand smirked as his arm slowly started to regrow. "You may have the unique power needed to harm us, however there must be a limit to how much power you can use. I simply need to wait that power out."
"AKA being a LITTLE BITCH while your workers do all the heavy lifting because you're a giant coward!" Sunset yelled at him with a dark chuckle. "Just face it whoever you were before? Was a loser. And once a loser? ALWAYS. A LOSER."
Black Hand just shrugged as he watched the shield begin to crack under the constructs relentless attacks. "And yet it's working. I'd say the results outweigh the methods…" He said as his arm finished regrowing and his ring returned to him. "So tell me, if I'm a loser then what does that make you, the one who's about to die by my hand?"
"Oh just patient as FUCK boy!" Sunset roared as she release the energy she'd been storing, let out a massive burst of energy knocked the others out of the way and charged at him. She then grabbed him and threw him down the street and sped after him, going too fast for the Black Lanterns too catch up at the moment... and all of a sudden Black Hand's bravado has just vanished.
Sunset smirked as she slammed her Dragon arm into his face, gleefully relishing in his terrified expression as the adrenaline pushed her forward. Summoning a blade from her ring hand she sliced his left arm off, then in one quick motion did the same to his right before he could form another construct.
"W-wait! You don't-" Whatever he was going to say was cut short by him having his head sliced off.
"I think I do…" Sunset said before exhaling another torrent of acidic blood onto the remains of his corpse, proud of her handiwork she casually chucked his head into the pool, leaving it to melt with the rest of him. "That should take care of their leader, now to-"
Sunset was suddenly cut off when she heard a disturbing chuckle coming from her opponent. "Y-You think I'm… th-their leader…?"
"Are you still talking?" Sunset scoffed, rolling her eyes.
"I am… but a prelude to the coming storm…" He gasped as the acidic blood ate away at his remains. "You… you cannot stop…. the coming onslaught… no m-matter what happens... my master w-will prevail… "
"Yeah, but right now it doesn't look like you'll be here to see it." Sunset said before blasting him into kingdom come. "Swear I hate it when people like him keep talking. It gets grating."
As she turned her attention back to the city however, a black ring immediately flew out of the rubble and shot straight into the sky. Sunset immediately attempted to blast it with her own ring, however it immediately emitted an energy shield and flew higher and higher until it disappeared from sight.
It is already written. The city will be ours...
"Faster G!" Rainbow screamed as her friend drove through the city streets. "For all we know Scoots is trapped somewhere begging for help!"
"I KNOW! I KNOW!" Gilda shouted as she put her foot to the pedal. The two dodging other cars including a few that honked at them, to which Gilda responded with a "FUCK YOU!" and a middle finger as a send off.
"This is all my fault! I just let Scoots be out alone and now she might be in trouble and FUCK I can't believe I was such a idiot!" Rainbow said with panic in her voice.
"Three things, one: she was familiar the area to walk on her own. Two: the weather forecast didn't say anything about a GODDAMN ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE!" Gilda retorted as she tore through the traffic and ran over one of the undead beasts that had been cut in half.
"Yeah and what the fuck is number three?!" Rainbow yelled at her as they ran over yet another zombie and crushed its head in..
A few seconds after she asked the car screeched to a halt as another zombie fell right in front of her, the force jerking Dash forward and slamming her against the back of the seat. "Put on your damn seat-belt!"
"Okay. I had that coming but SHIT Gilda!" Rainbow yelled as she massaged her head and buckled her seat belt.
Before she could retort another figure wearing red armor landed right in front of the car, slamming its fist into the zombie's head and crushing it like a grape. "AND THIS TIME STAY DEAD!" The figure snarled as she let loose a burst of energy, vaporizing its remains. She then turned her attention to Gilda and Dash... and simply scoffed before taking off toward the sky again.
"...Gilda. What the hell was that?" Rainbow asked as she nervously looked out the window. "Like seriously the actual HELL was that?"
"I dunno, but it seems to hate those zombies with a passion, so that's a plus." Gilda retorted before hitting the gas. "Let's just pray we don't end up as collateral damage..."
"DASH!"
Rainbow was very thankful she had her seat-belt on when Gilda hit the brakes once more, looking out the window they saw to both their relief and horror, Scootaloo slowly limping out of an alleyway, her leg bleeding and her using and iron pole as support.
"OH MY GOD SCOOTS!" Rainbow shouted as she unbuckled and got of the car. She ran towards her and once she got close she hugged her tightly as though she would never let go of Scootaloo ever again. "It's ok Scoots. I'm here, we're gonna get you the closest hospital we can find!"
"D-Dash… she… she saved me…" Scootaloo whispered through her tears as her big sister picked her up. "She s-saved my… life…." She mumbled before passing out in her arms.
Rainbow quickly picked her up and carried her bridal style back to the car as fast as she could. "STEP ON IT GILDA!"
"Don't need to tell me twice!" Gilda retarded as she hit the gas, tearing down the city streets as fast as she could…
"Alright. Just line on up bitches." Sunset said with a sadistic smile on her face. The zombies all just snarled and growled at her. "You're all going to die again... so why not in trying to give me a scratch?"
As zombie after zombie attempted to attack her, she easily cut them down with little to no effort, either slicing through them with her blade, drenching them in her acidic blood, or simply blasting them to pieces from afar. She smiled at the carnage, delighting in the destruction her fight brought to the zombies. "This has been fun boys and girls."
The remaining zombies immediately attempted to rush her from all sides, only for her to dart upwards and charge up another blast, however as she did the orb suddenly became smaller and smaller, to the point where it resembled baseball. "What the-!?"
'Warning: Ring at 20% power, must recharge immediately.'
"Wait I got power levels?! What sort of bullshit is that?!" Sunset roared as she launched the ball, which exploded upon impact, doing a very good job of blasting away the remaining zombies for the time being. "I have to be careful how much fun I have?!"
'Warning: Power Levels at 15%. Ring requires immediate recharging.'
As if responding to its statement, Sunset's armor immediately started to lose it glow, her Armor slowly vanishing to the point where all that remained was a red and black bodysuit, the only part of her original armor that stayed being her helmet. "Shit. I have to get out of here right now." Sunset said as she rushed off from the fight in order to make herself scarce.
In a dark cave, a lone ring flew into a large cavern, in the middle a figure sat atop a throne made from several skeletons and decomposing corpses.
"... something dares... to oppose us." The figure snarled as the ring just fell down onto one of the corpses. "How... utterly drool and boring. I was promised sights... and I get boredom."
As an image of Sunset's Armored form appeared in it's hand, it snarled as it crushed it by closing its first. "All will return to the void of death sooner or later. And soon the dead shall rise again..."
"In Vengeful Day, in Hateful Night
Let those who wronged me fear my might!
All those who oppose truest hate,
Shall see my ring and seal their fate!"
In an abandoned warehouse, Sunset gasped as she felt her energy return to her. This power was nothing short of invigorating, and to think, it was all hers! 'With this power, I could overthrow Celestia herself! I could dominate Equestria' She smirked as she clenched her fist, creating a crimson fireball as her power battery vanished... only to dispel it when she remembered Black Hand's final words.
"You… you cannot stop…. the coming onslaught… no m-matter what happens... my master w-will prevail… "
"Whoever that bastard was working for... they must be pretty damn powerful to resurrect the dead, not even the most powerful mages could pull that off... not since Celestia brought about the necromancy purge long ago..." She mused to herself as her original attire appeared over her body suit, her ring now covered up by her gloves, she briefly considered leaving this world for Equestria... however she quickly dismissed that thought when she remembered Soooctaloo at the mercy of one of those beasts.
"Leaving here wouldn't be the best choice, at least not yet. First I'll make sure whoever is summoning the dead is put down for good... just to make sure no one stronger than me is around..."She reassured herself. "And then..." She summoned a blade from her ring and sliced through several support beams in one swift motion, as she exited the warehouse the entire structure collapsed behind her.
"There will be no one left to stand in my way..."
High above the Earth's atmosphere, a bright green light hovered past the moon before coming to a stop as its light glowed brighter...
'Willpower detected.'
...and it shot down towards the planet, in search of its new bearer...
