Chapter 11, War
The sky was still dark from the ritual, Sin stared at the body what used to be someone else now a dark god. The body changed greatly, it sprouted wings and the horn grew larger. The mare sink into the skin and is now replaced with a fire. The legs grew and the torso became very muscular, it's hooves is coated in flames. Sin could feel the power of his aura, the air became very dry and harder to breath. The temperature seems to rise to 90 degrees, although the burnt grass around him tells him otherwise.
The King smiled and ran to the god, he bowed which almost made Sin crack a smile but was still terrified of the divine being in front of him. "Lord War! My name is Grim descendant of Pain one of-" said the King but the pony interrupted him. "I know who you are, you smell like my brother" it spoke in a dark voice, it boomed loudly causing Sin's leg to shake "I was believed to be summoned by the lamb" it commanded.
The King nodded "Yes that's right but I helped brought you back and gave you the body-"
"Ah yes! I appreciate you bringing my body back, quite different from what I remember though..." War interrupted.
The King raised an eyebrow "Umm...your body?"
"Yes! It must be hard to find of course, those blasted heathens probably hid it in of the largest volcanoes in the world!" he said, the king smiled nervously "Umm...actually my lord, that's not your body..."
"...what?"
"The blasted heathens burned it with the others, so we gave you a regular body instead-"
"YOU IDIOT! YOU GAVE ME A MORTAL BODY! HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT YOUR RULER YOU UNGRATEFUL-"
The lamb coughed to interrupt Ruin from trying to strangle the king, Ruin turn and stared at him "What?" he shouted. The lamb looked unafraid and spoke "No offense my lord but I assure you that the other three knew about it as well, so in other words you have no choice but to deal with it".
Sin could've sworn that War was about to destroy the lamb but he simply stood there then chuckled amusingly and very off character like. "Oh yes well...I never did pay attention to what happened to my body so...sorry about that Grimmy boy" he said as he patted the king's back. The king made a look saying What have I done? he coughed from the embarrassment of his new nickname then spoke to him. "It may be mortal my lord but it has a rare ability making fire-based magic stronger".
"Oh...go on..." said War back to his menacing form, "The body you possessed have a ability when the sun is up all your fire magic will increase ten fold" said the King. It sounded familiar to Sin, he could've sworn that someone told him about it. War stared at the group of ponies and smiled "Oh look! More worshippers! That's right folks, me, War in the flesh of another pony! You may bow and say you're not worthy".
Twilight and Sin looked at him, Rainbow Dash appeared next to them and glare at him "Bow? To you? The only person I serve is Princess Celestia!" she shouted. "Shut up..." muttered both Twilight and Sin, War stared at her then growled "You dare insult me? I'll tear your wings off and throw you across the ocean!" he shouted. War inhaled the air then blew a huge wave of fire at them, Kirin jumped in front of Rainbow Dash and created a electrical field around them.
The flames was split in half and went around the field and burned the trees. War chuckled amusingly "You generate electricity, interesting isn't it? Grimmy boy, stand back and watch how I crush these fools with only one percent of my strength!" he shouted. Twilight whispered to Sin "He reminds me of someone I used to know...", Sin smiled and stood in front of her facing War. War looks at him then made a face as if he met him before then shook his head, he smiles at him "Something tells me that this pony used to be your friend, don't worry he sacrifice isn't in vain. For he have done a good thing, bringing back the one that shall rain this world in fire!".
Sin gritted his teeth, suddenly a headache erupted in his head. Images of past pictures of him and the pony...Dawn. He remembers everything about them two and the reason for the rebellion, Sin knew the voice is there then speak to him.
So you're the one that took my memories away
You knew? Interesting, what else do you know?
I know why you're giving them to me, you're trying to consume my heart with hatred so you can take over!
That's right, that same kind of hatred helped stop Dusk from killing you. Aria needs you and so does Twilight.
Sin can feel the voice fading, he stood in front of War and glared at him "My name is Sin Malefic! Leader of the rebellion! I don't care if you're the creator himself! Nobody hurts my friend, and I mean nobody!" shouted Sin. Twilight smiled warmly at him, Kirin looks at him and nodded "Never seen this side of you, so you have changed alot...". War growled and cloaked himself in flames, his eyes burned with hatred and roared "I'LL DRAG YOU TO THE DEEPEST DEPTHS OF HELL ITSELF!".
"Kirin take Twilight and the others away so they can be safe, War is mine" he said, Twilight shook her head and pounded him. "Ow!" he yelped, Twilight gave him an angry glare "No! I don't abandon my friends especially when they're doing something incredibly stupid! I'll fight with you!". Sin gave her a worried look, Kirin stepped up with his lance ready "She's right old friend, I'm afraid we won't be leaving".
Rainbow Dash stood next to him "Yeah! I mean how cool is it to fight a GOD! The Wonderbolts got to have me in once they hear about this!" she squealed in delight, Sin nearly laughed. He look back at the others, Rarity was awake healing the wounds of the others. She turn to him and nodded, Sin picked up the sword from the ground and held it tightly with his mouth. War laughed "Four against one! That's not far...you'll need more than that!"
Sin was the first to charge against him, he swing the sword at War but he simply move and dodge each attack with ease. Kirin ran and jumped off of Sin's back and thrust the lance towards his face, War ducked but was too slow as the sharp edge scraped his hide. War winced in pain and kicked him away like a ragdoll, Kirin fell to the ground with burn marks on his armor but he got up like it was a paper cut. War blew fire at Rainbow Dash as she sped through the searing flames preventing herself from getting burnt, Twilight picked up a rock with her magic and threw it at War but he simply kicked it into pieces.
The King laughed and sit back watching the battle, "Oh if only I had some popcorn and a large cherry soda this would be the best moment of history! You there! Write down everything that is going on! A battle like this should be recorded!" he ordered one the guards. Sin growled and dodged one of War's kick but suddenly the ground burst under him launching him to the air, Sin fell then rolled away from the falling lava that rised from the hole.
War laughed and manipulate the lava at the others like using a water hose, Twilight and Rainbow Dash dodged but the lava splashed on Kirin's face. He screamed in pain burying his face in the ground, Rainbow Dash gasped and growled at War "Now you're asking for it!".
"Rainbow Dash use the Sonic Rainbowboom!" cried Twilight, Sin and War looked at each other then looked back "The what?" said War. Rainbow Dash nodded and flew towards the sky until she's the size of a dot, suddenly she sped down in incredible speed Sin could barely register where she's going. Suddenly an explosion erupted of rainbow colors and charge at War, Sin couldn't believe how fast she's going by the trail of rainbows behind. Rainbow Dash tackled War like a speeding bullet, he screamed in pain but couldn't finished as he was pushed towards the forest knocking down about ten trees.
Rainbow Dash panted then fainted in exhaustion, Sin and Twilight ran to her then stopped as they heard War's scream. The forest was lit up in flames into a huge ball of inferno, War appeared as the trees was burnt into ashes but the fire didn't die. Suddenly it came together and formed of a creature with two huge claws, it roared and swipe one of it's claws sending a wave of fire at them. Kirin ran past them then fired a huge arc of electricity at the incoming fire.
War laughed as the electricity stopped the fire but it then the creature sends multiple waves of fire at them. Twilight cast a shield around them to block the attacks but the flames proved too much as she strains from keeping it up. Sin ran to Kirin and looked at his face, half of it was burnt on the left eye all the way to his chin. Sin heard the roar of laughter from the King as he watched the battle, Sin growled then heard Twilight yelped.
War's monster came closer the slammed it's fist on the shield, it shattered pushing her away. Sin ran and stood in front of her like a shield, the creature pull back it's fist as it prepares itself to attack. "SIN NOO!" screamed Twilight as it launches it's first towards them. Electricity pulsed and fired at the creature's head, it suddenly dissolved into sparks then died. War stared in confusion at the attack, Kirin stood in front of them panting from exhaustion. He pointed up at the sky, War looked then noticed the smoke developing dark clouds.
Electricity pulsed around them, War knew what's going to happen next "uh oh..." he said. Blue electricity pulsed and created a unicorn shrieking at War, Kirin smiled "Saw this in a show once, thought why not give it a try" he said. A huge stream of electricity fires down directly at War before he was able to move, he screamed in pain as he was engulfed by the electricity paralyzing all control of his body. The ground exploded giving off a huge cloud of dust.
Sin and Twilight stared in shock at the attack, Kirin collapsed on the ground "That...should do it" he said. The King glared at them then look back at War, he smiled "Not exactly". The three of them hesitated as they heard moaning from the crater War is in. He stood up and craned his neck, he smiled at them and spit out a tooth "Well that was shocking get it? Shocking? No? Whatever...I guess playtime is over, now it's time to die".
"We can't beat him" muttered Sin, "He's too powerful, it's hopeless". Twilight grabbed Sin and hold him close, he blushed as her face touches his. Kirin struggles to stand up but his legs gave up on him and fell, War walk slowly to them then stopped.
"Nah! It be too boring to kill you like that! I haven't fought a battle in a LONG time, you three are really impressive I can't just kill you like this!" he said, The King started twitching and shouted "WHAT? They're the enemy! Why are you showing mercy?"
"Because it's not his nature to kill" said the voice, Twilight gasped and looks behind her with a smile. Sin looked too and spotted Princess Celestia as she flew and landed in front of them, "Am I right War?" she said. War nodded "Yes! Killing is fit for my brother Death, what I enjoy is the thrill of the battles! A battle with endless warriors fighting one by one! A battle like-"
"War" interrupted Princess Celestia, "You want war between Aria and Equestria do you?" she asked. War nodded in delight like a five year old, The King smiled and walked towards her "Why hello there Celestia, you're looking lovely than ever" he said.
Celestia glared at him, he continues to smile at her "Equestria seems to be unfit to be ruled by you, especially with a god on my side. If you give up Equestria to me I'll let your people live unless of course-"
"Five months" Celestia interrupted, "The war will start in five months, do you agree War?". War nodded "Yes, five months seems to be appropriate. Gather your troops and prepare for the most exciting battle in all ages! I bid you Princess a farewell!" he said as the area around them formed a huge fireball then flew away. Sin looked around for GoldHeart but couldn't see him anywhere, Princess Celestia walk up next to him.
Sin looked up at her smile, "Perhaps I was wrong, if you're the leader of the rebellion that fought against Grim then maybe you're not like them. Come my friends, there are things to talk about but before that...". Sin turn and stared at the guards chaining Kirin's legs together, Twilight turn to her in shock "What are they doing?" she asked.
"This pony has destroyed the hospital and killed a pony in battle against one of the king's guards. He'll be put to trial, I wish I could help him but I'm afraid that there is nothing I can do" said Princess Celestia, Sin looked down as Kirin was taken away. Rainbow Dash woke up and watched Kirin being taken away, she tried to move but her body disobeyed and forced her to the ground. A voice spoke into Sin's head, the same one from before.
Beware Bringer of Sin, this battle is far from over. In five months four gods will come and destroy what's left of this world, should you choose to fight alone or awaken the ancient rage.
No, I choose to fight with my friends! The Seven Virtues is our only hope, your darkness will not consume my heart beast!
We shall see...prepare to fall into oblivion
