(Hello people. Here comes another chapter that looks unproductive...)
I do not own Detective Conan and My Little Pony.
Foals smiled happily and ran around laughing in Ponyville's Town Square, almost all carried baskets of candies and wore costumes. In an alleyway, a certain group of five were planning for mischievous activities. "You got this?" Scootaloo asked, Conan shifted his weight, uneasiness settled upon him. "Sure..." Conan said, "But I still don't think this is a good idea."
Sweetie Belle scoffed, "Well of course it's not! We're scaring other foals after all." she said. The Cutie Mark Crusaders were planning on scaring other fillies and colts and take their candies, Conan was selected to scare foals because of his phantom abilities and his costume.
Conan wore a costume thay resembled an armor, his helmet was similiar to the ones griffon Royal Guards wore, but it looked like it was made of bone, and there were spikes instead of fake mane on the top. The chesplate looked like it was made of bone as well, so did the leg guards, tail guard and wing guards. On the middle of Conan's back, there was a spine-like guard with three ribs attached to each side at the waist to protect the belly. Conan also left his glasses in the Castle of Friendship for the time being.
Haibara stared at Conan worriedly, since late afternoon, Conan felt lightheaded and giddy, he couldn't even eat. Conan also seemed to be constantly sweating a lot and his fur seemed to have a translucent shine to it. Pushing herself off the wall, Haibara walked up to Conan and stood by his side, "Are you going to be okay?" she asked, worry was obvious in her voice. Conan smiled weakly, his head was throbbing and he felt like he had a fever or something, "I'll be fine." he lied. Haibara didn't seem to buy it, but she didn't push further, "If you say so."
"A group's approaching!" Apple Bloom said from her spot on one end of the alleyway, everyone turned to her, and Scootaloo and Sweetie galliped over to Apple Bloom to take a peek. Haibara turned to Conan, who turned to her, they accidentally made eye conatct and stiffened when they did. Sapphire blue staring into dark blue, both eyes shining in the dark.
Finally, after what seemed like hours, although it was just seconds, of staring, the two broke eye contact. "Uh... Um.. Good luck." Haibara said, felling very awkward, "Th-thanks." Conan thanked, just as awkwardly.
The two looked away from each other, suddenly feeling shy. "Phantompaw! Do your thing." Scootaloo whispered, turning back to look at Conan then looking out at the approaching group of foals again. Conan squared his shoulders, preparing to possess something. Haibara spared a glance at Conan, then, taking a deep breath, she turned around and gave Conan a light peak on his cheek.
Every fur and feather on Conan rose and feel like a wave, blushing, he turned to Haibara, who was smiling at him. Blushing even harder, Conan turned away with a flustered look and turned invisible. Haibara chuckled softly to herself, 'Cute.' she thought.
A slight ripple in the air made its way towards the group, jumping over the crouching fillies at the end of the alleyway. As the group passed, a scarecrow in front of them suddenly lifted its head with a sickening crack and its eyes glowed yellow. A couple of foals yelped and backed up while others either stared in shock or looked on with interest.
The scarecrow screeched, showing of its sharp fangs and scaring the foals to a stand-still. The scarecrow's right arm broke free of the rope that tied it to its post and screeched again, the foals dropped their candy and ran away screaming as the scarecrow freed itself from its restraints. However, the scarecrow didn't chase after the foals, instead, it stood over the baskets of candies and stared after the foals.
The glow in its eyes died out and it dropped dead on the ground, ponies looked on with wide eyes when the scarecrow dropped, but after confirming that the scarecrow was no threat, they went on with their day, no one wanted to touch the scarecrow though. The Cutie Crusaders cheered and came out from their hiding spot, they stood in the midst of the pool of candy and startes to scoop them into their baskets.
Conan jumped out of the scarecrow, his form looked like mist rather than solid as he left the scarecrow. He landed in the alleyway and started to pant heavily with sweat sticking his feathers and fur together, Haibara immediatly ran to him and sat down next to him. "Kudo-kun. Are you okay?" Haibara asked worriedly, placing a claw on the other's shoulder. "I... I think so..." Conan replied, taking large gulps of air between his sentences. His head was throbbing with pain, he felt more lightheaded than ever, he felt like throwing up but his senses seemed to have sharpen immensely.
Sweetie Belle looked up at the clouds, "Hey look! The moon's pretty today!" she said, pointing at the large, shining moon. Conan and Haibara looked as well, the moon was pretty, and it seemed to be closer to Equestria as well. Haibara felt the cool and light magic from the moon, along with the warm magic from the stars, Haibara took in a deep breath and continued to stare at the moon. Conan, however, didn't feel as calm and as relaxed as Haibara. Instead, he felt even more ill and his breathing sounded like he was hyperventilating. Haibara looked at Conan, her eyes widened a little and worry was written all over her face. "Kudo-kun! Are you okay?!" Haibara asked, this time, the three fillies looked at Conan, who was now crouching and shaking. "Speak to me!" Haibara said, holding Conan by his shoulders and looking on with worry. Conan growled, his fur and feathers bristling with tiny trails of mist or fog. Wait a minute. What?
Now snarling, Conan suddenly stood and knocked Haibara off her paws. Haibara yelped as she stumbled back, her back connected with the wall behind her and she stared in horror as Conan seemed to be almost twice his original size. Conan started to snarl and hiss and stumble around as his fur and feathers adopted a translucent look, he snapped his eyes shut and his ears pressed against the back of his head as his beak became jagged and ridges appeares on top of his beak.
"Dreamwings! What's happening to him?!" Scootaloo asked, now backing up with Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom, other ponies ran to the frightened fillies and looked into the alleyway, their eyes widening and jaws dropping after.
Conan roared as his teeth became visible as sharp fangs, except, there were three rows. Conan stumbled into a wall and caused it to crack as he continued to transform, his claws grew long and razor sharp, his tail ended in a trail of mist, and a ghostly aura seemed to engulf him. When Conan opened his eyes, they were pitch black, he then smiled, but his smile was too big to be even normal, it was impossible.
Haibara's eyes turned grey from fear, she was now starring at Conan, who was almost twice his own size, wearin real-looking armor and with a ghostly presence. When Haibara arole a glance at the moon, she drew in breath, "Wereghost."
Conan howled, a high pitched shrieking noise that made most ponies cover their ears or cower in fear. "Wereghost!" Haibara yelled, standing, she quickly ran out of the alleyway as Conan turned her. "Everyone run!" Haibara screamed, Conan screeched and pounced from behind, but Haibara immediatly turned and summoned a pale blue half barrier to block the wereghost.
Ponies ran as Haibara backed up, Conan climbed up the solid magical energy and screeched at Haibara. The female griffon froze in place when she heard the screech, suddenly feeling a lot more afriad than she normally was. Conan crouched and his tail whipped from side to side as he prepared for a pounced.
"Dreamwings!" Haibara snapped back into reality when she heard her name, she saw that Conan was already puncing and dismissed the barrier quickly. Conan wasn't prepared for the platform under his paws to disappear and fell when it did, he roared in anger and flipped back onto his feet.
Haibara turned to where the caller came from and saw Twilight and her friends running towards her, they stopped by her wide with shocked faces as they saw Conan roar. "Is that Phantompaw?!" Twilight asked, seemingly frozen in olace with fear. Haibara nodded, "He turned into a wereghost, I don't know why, but I know it has to do with how ill he was this afternoon." she explained, taking a step back.
"Alright girls! Let's get 'im!" Applejack said, pawing the ground, the others prepared themselves to charge at Conan, even Spike seemed to be confident. As Conan screeched and clawed at the ground, Haibara looked up at Twilight, "Please! Don't hurt him!" she pleaded, she kept glancing at Conan as she spoke, unable to comprehend that it was her partner who was the wereghost.
Twilight lowered her head, "Don't worry, we'll just knock him out." she said, with a yell, Rainbow Dash charged ahead with the others following.
Conan shrieked and charged as well, he dodged a kick from Rainbow Dash, slipped pass Pinkie Pie, and avoided a punch from Applejack. In turn, Conan used ectoplasm to blast the three mares back, he turned a second too late and a ray of magic was heading towards him. Instead of attempting to dodge, Conan stood and stare as the magic ray hit his chestplate, the purple star on the middle seemed to absorb the ray, much to Starlight's shock.
"What?! How?!" Starlight exclaimed, she quickly summoned a barrier to block the ectoplasm coming at her. Twilight turned to Rarity, "What gem was that?!" she asked, turning and blasting a ray at Conan. Conan stopped his attack and became more translucant, the ray phased right through him, but as he became solid once more, Starlight was already attacking.
While Conan and Starlight exchanged a fury of blows, Raroty replied, "I don't know, I was looking for a decoration to put on Phantompaw's costume and found the purple star-shaped one I found in the caves when the Diamond Dogs captured me."
Twilight stared in shock, "Rarity, I think you may have found a rare Energy Gem." she said, "These gems are very rare, and they are capable of storing magical energy along with a pony's life to save it, they can also store an infinite amount of energy and the owner can summon that energu ro their will. To put this short, I don't think we can win this battle."
The sound of screaming attracted Twilight, Rarity, and Spike attention. The three mares that Conan had blasted away before were now charging at him, he seemes to have noticed, he opened his wings and took flight just in time to dodge a punch from Starlight.
With a screech, Conan turned and dived down, as he landed, a large burst of energy blasted the ponies back. Haibara was in range, and she too, got blasted back by the ectoplasm. She cried out as she crashed into a stall and fell unconscious as it landed on her.
Conan screeched and looked at the mares and dragon around him, he saw Twilight getting up and he screeched again. Upon seeing Twilight charging up her horn, Conan hissed and took a step back as he glared around him. Suddenly, Conan's opponents' insides glowed and an orb of energy flew out from each of their mouths, each had a different colour to represent each ponies.
When the orb left their mouths, the ponies that fought him had their eyes roll and fell unconscious, neither of them breathing. Conan smiled his eye-to-eye smile, he hissed with satisfaction as the eight orbs surrounded him in a circle. Suddenly, something hot hit Conan's back, the wereghost hissed and whipped his head around, someone was flying towards hin at full speed.
Princess Luna blasted another beam at Conan, a fierce scowl on her face, she had arrived in Ponyvilla just in time to see the battle and flew as fast as she could. The beam blasted Conan in the chest, but it got absorbed into the Energy Gem on his chestplate.
"Just who do thou think thou are?! Attacking Ponyville's innocent ponies!" Princess Luna bellowed in her Canterlot voice, Conan smiled and laugh, a barking sound that sounded more like a shriek. Conan looked at Luna with his pitch black eyes and sped towards her, growling, Princess Luna did the same. Conan held an orb of ectoplasm in his claws and shot a beam at the alicorn, in return, Princess Luna followed, but she stopped in midair instead of continuing.
Once he was close enough, Conan threw the ectoplasm at Princess Luna. With a yelp, Princess Luna shielded herself with a barrier, the ectoplasm exploded against Princess Luna's shield. She lowered it and prepared for another attack, but Conan was already swiping his claw at her. The princess wailed in pain as Conan dragged his talons across her face, the orbs around Conan spun and formed a circle in front of him as he held out his claw.
When Princess Luna recovered from the attack, her widened when she saw the orbs glowing. With a laugh, Conan curled his claw into a fist, the orbs blasted a strong beam of magic each, they came together almost immediatly and formed a thick beam of magic. Princess Luna shot her own beam for a desperate defense, she gritted her teeth and strained to push Conan's attack back, but alas, he was too strong.
Princess Luna screamed as she was hit by her opponent's attack, she fell from the sky and landed on a stall, breaking it into pieces. The Ponyville residence, who were hiding, gasped at the sight of one of their princesses falling, they withdrew slightly as Conan glided down and landed in front of the stall.
Haibara groaned as she awoke, she quickly noted that she was under a pile of wood and clawed her way out, she pushed away the pieces of wood until she could crawl out. She shook her head to get rid of some dust and bits of splinters and looked around, she gasped softly when she saw Conan approaching the fallen princess.
She knew what she had to do, Haibara climbed out of the broken stall she landed in and stood on top of the pile, gasps were heard as she did. "Hey!" Haibara yelled, her fur and feathers started bristling as she yelled, her irises returned to their normal colour, but her pupils had narrowed.
Conan stopped in his tracks and whipped his head around, his beak lifted for a snarl as he turned towards Haibara and stalked towards her. Haibara shook her herself as she approached the wereghost, more dust and splinters falling off onto the ground.
Without warning, Conan roared and leapt towards Haibara, his teeth bared and his talons gleaming as he reached out to scratch her. Haibara dodged, as Conan flew pass her, she turned and attempted to scratch Conan, but her talons barely left any scratches as she hit the armor instead.
'Ow!' Haibara thought, biting her tongue to prevent herself from yelping. Conan landed and immediately twisted around, Haibara did the same, glaring. With a yell from both sides, the two griffons began to clash and exchange a fury of blows and scratches and bites. Haibara managed to dodge every attack just in time, Conan however, was protected by his 'fake' armor and Haibara's attacks phase through him if she did manage to get through the armor. 'It's like he's not even trying.' Haibara thought.
After what seemed like hundreds of trading blows, Conan and Haibara jumped away from each other and glared at each other with a few feet gap separating them. Haibara panted as she stood in a battle ready stance, Conan seemed to be just as tired, suddenly, Haibara felt a sudden fear freeze her in place. 'Wha-what?! What's happening?! Why can't I move?! Why am I suddenly so scared?!' Haibara windered in a panicked state, her eyes wide with worry.
Conan stood straight and walked towards Haibara in a slow pace, smiling as if he had won, behind him, the orbs he had taken from Twilight and her friends were floating along and faint trails of colourful mists were bekng absorbed by Conan. Haibara's eyes widened more when she realized that Conan absorbing energy from the life orbs, 'No. Please! No!' Haibara cried desperatly in her mind, she commanded her limbs to move and tried her best to even lift a talon, but no avail.
'No!' Haibara started to shake, Conan seemes to notice, for his smug expression changed inti one of shock. He quickly masked his shock with anger and glared, Haibara whimpered when she felt her fear getting stronger, she shut her eyes and started to shake violently. 'I won't!' Haibara thought, she opened her eyes and glared at a really surprised Conan, 'I won't let it end...' Haibara managed lift a claw and step back, she crouched, a new gleam shone in her eyes. Determination. 'Not like this!'
Haibara roared as she jumped forward, she threw out her four legs and hit Conan square in the chest, and missed the Energy Gem on his chestplate. Conan hissed and stumbled back, almost falling over. Haibara landed gracefully at where she stood before, she stood in a more proud posture as she fed off the energy in the stars, Conan wasn't the only one who can feed off magic.
Conan screeched and glared at Haibara, his eyes wide and filled with rage. "Let's go big boy." Haibara mumbled, with a strong leap and an even stronger flap, she took to the skies. A shrieking howl was heard from Conan before he flew himself, a strong breeze blew by, it was chilling. Haibara looked at the moon and watched as the clouds covered it, dimming Ponyville slightly, Conan's form was glowing under the dark night sky, along with the trailing orbs.
Haibara looked at the the undersides of her wings, she smirked. Once Conan was near her, Haibara summoned a large ball a large ball of lunar energy, "Catch!" she yelled, throwing it. Conan's form became less visible, meaning the attack will just phase through him, but instead of hitting him, the energy exploded.
Conan screeched and solidified himself as he covered his eyes, the light momentarily blinding him. When the light died down, Conan lowered his claw and whipped his head around, blinking to restore his vision. He coulsn't see anything, his night vision showed him nothing but stars, until he saw one appear and disappear. Turning, he snarled as he spotted Haibara glaring at him as she circled him, her wings had only hid her for a short while.
With a yell, Haibara shot another flash bomb at Conan, he shrieked and shielded his eyes from the light, he shook his head to try and clear his vision better, but the assult on his eyes continued as Haibara threw bombs after bombs. She got closer every time Conan shut his eyes, glancing at the orbs as she did.
Finally, Haibara was now near the orbs. After throwing another flash bomb, Haibara summoned a barrier around the orbs and ,with a yell, shot them to their original owners.
The orbs entered through the mouths of their owners, and one by one, Twilight and her gang began to wake up. Haibara smirked in satisfaction, but her triumph didn't last long when she heard a roar and felt something hit and burn against her back.
Haibara screamed and tumbled forward, she quickly spread her wings and reagained balance, turning with just enough time to dodge amother blast of ectoplasm from Conan. The wereghost roared again and sped, seeking to ram Haibara off balance. Fortunaly, he failed, and the two started to trade blows and shots with each other. Counterattacking, blocking, dodging.
Neither of the two were being worn out, while Conam drew strength from the spirits around, Haibara drew her strength from the moon and stars, they were equals.
Haibara blasted Conan back with a large beam of lunar and stellar energy, she glided downwards and shot another beam of energy at him, sending him furthur away. "Give up Phantompaw!" Haibara yelled, not trusting the battle to cover her voice, "You cannot win this fight! Not with me!"
Conan hissed in response, and finally, he spoke. "NEVER!" he screamed, he flew up higher to the sky until he looked like he was in the middle of it, the clouds cleared and the moonlight shone down on Ponyville once more. "DIE!" Conan shrieked, the gem in his chestplate glowed, Haibara lifted an eyebrow and flew back slightly.
Roaring, Conan reeled in every ounce of magic within the gem and blasted it at Haibara in one huge beam. Unable to get away in time, Haibara summoned a barrier with a scream, she grunted and strained as she did her best to hold her barrier, but cracks were starting to appear.
Sweat rolled down Haibara's face, she closed one eye and gritted her teeth, the cracks spread furthur around the barrier, the sound was loud in Haibara's ears.
Suddenly, the barrier gave away. Haibara's eye widened and she screamed as the magic hit her square in the chest. She fell from the sky with her eyes closed, she landed with a loud thump on the ground and skidded across the floor before her back met a wall, the ponies in hiding gasped and retreated furthur into the shadows.
Conan laughed in the sky, baring his shark teeth and glee filling his black eyes. Haibara groaned as she did her best to stand, she cried and fell into a sitting position, leaning against the wall behind her. Her while body was sore and she felt like she had broken some bones and dislocated a limb or two, she looked up at the wereghost.
Screeching, Conan dived, he flexed his claws and held it at his side, ready to strike. Haibara's eyes widen, she strained and attempted to stand up, but only to cry out and fall back down. She gasped when Conan spread his wings and glided towards her at full speed, screaming, Haibara did what her instinct told her do to.
CHK
Haibara stared with wide eyes, Conan's claws were inches from her face, the wereghost's eyes were wide and his beak was unhinged. Hot red liqiud dripped onto Haibara's claws, shaking and hyperventilating, Haibara let go of the lunar sword and it disappeared.
Conan let out a weak cry and fell forward, Haibara immediately leaned forward and caught him, Conan looked up at Haibara, his eyes returned back to normal and he seemed to be transfoeming to his normal self. "Oh my god... I'm so sorry... Kudo-kun, I'm so sorry. I-I didn't mean-" Haibara was cut off when Conan held his talon to her beak, "It's okay..." he whispered, he cried out and held his stomach, blood was pouring out of it. "It's okay..." Conan said again, Haibara looked on eith tears in her eyes as Conan coughed out blood, "I know why... I know you didn't mean to do it... It's okay..."
"No." Haibara mumbled, Conan smiled as his eyes started to droop close, his breathing became labored. "No." Haibara said, louder this time. Conan exhaled as he closed his eyes, "NO!" Haibara yelled, she hugged Conan close to her body and held his head next to hers. "PLEASE! NO! DON'T DIE! PLEASE! I CAN'T LOSE YOU AGAIN! NOT AGAIN!" Haibara yelled, crying now.
Whipping her head around, Haibara screamed, "SOMEONE HELP! PLEASE! SOMEONE HELP HIM! ANYONE!"
But nopony were willing to come out, Twilight and her gang were still out cold, and so was Princess Luna.
Conan's body went limp, he gave out a cold but living aura that disappeared as soon as it came, and then, his whole being disappeared. Haibara gasped as Conan faded away, like he was some sort of ghost.
"No..." Haibara gasped, she cried louder and harder as she collasped to the floor, at looking up, she screamed.
