"Look! I'm telling you! He'll destroy this kingdom!" Elemental Steve exclaimed. But the yellow and violet village leader weren't listening.
"Why should we trust you?" The yellow village leader shouted back to Elemental Steve.
"You destroyed the Green village leader too! We can't trust you!" The Green village leader exclaimed.
"Wait who what?" Sabre replied as he and Twilight walked over to Elemental Steve.
"Uh, what's going on?" Light Steve asked as he, Time Steve, Dark Steve and the rest of the mane 6 came over.
"That steve! The steve that burned the village! He is b-lining towards this kingdom!" Elemental Steve exclaimed. Then just a few moments later, Madness Steve teleported on top of Elemental Steve, badly injuring him with the lightning from teleporting. Meanwhile, Fluttershy hide behind everyone and everypony whilst jittering her teeth out of fear. Madness Steve then flew upwards slightly, hovering roughly 6 blocks off the ground.
"Elemental! No!" Sabre exclaimed as he rushed to Elemental Steve.
"I see you and Twilight spoke to the Great Librarian in the world beyond, Sabre," Said Madness Steve.
"What the... how... how do you know that!?" Sabre freaked out, feeling on edge as he backed away from Madness Steve, taking a few steps back, each delay with each step being slightly different.
"From the Madness Dimension, I see anything when it's dark. It was night. It was dark. By the way, when you hear screaming whilst it's dark, don't look back," Madness Steve chuckled slightly as he replied. Meanwhile, Sabre was left with no other words to say.
"What... wh... where's Spike!? What did you do to him!?" Twilight yelled at Madness Steve.
"This," Madness Steve replied as he wipes the old Yellow Kingdom from existence within an instant and all the steves in it without any effort. Madness Steve then destroys the yellow and violet village leader with a single bolt of lightning.
"No! Why!? Why why why!?" Sabre yelled as he grunted and tries to hit Madness Steve with the Shadow Sword. In response, Madness Steve levitates the Shadow Sword out of Sabre's hand and snapped it in half within an instant, destroying it.
"No! The Shadow Sword! Wait... Dark!" Sabre exclaimed. The darkness that was still lurking around the world began to recede and began to balance around the world. This meant Dark Steve was also receding. Time Steve tried to slow the process down with his time abilities, but Madness Steve's time abilities overwhelmed Time Steve's. Madness Steve then sped up the process. Once Dark Steve was gone, Sabre tried to summon Dark Steve with the Dark Crystal, but shattered the crystal as he tried to summon Dark Steve.
"Pathetic," Madness Steve emotionlessly mocked everyone and everypony with a distorted laugh. Sabre meanwhile could only looked at the Shadow Sword that was on the floor, snapped into 2 peaces. Sabre then picked them up.
"We're... we... we're... not scared... of you... definitely... not... me..." Rainbow Dash stuttered as she slowly stepped forward, either being brave or foolish as well as trying to show no fear in her face. Madness Steve then pauses time, leaving himself and Rainbow Dash unfrozen in time.
"Uh... uh... I take that back!" Rainbow Dash fearfully exclaimed as she now stepped backwards, looking at everyone and everypony else, who was frozen in time. The expression on her face went from fearless to petrified. Madness Steve then froze Rainbow Dash in place. Madness Steve began to walk close to Rainbow Dash, holding out a lava-looking sword with obsidian-like edges around what looked like lava and then held it very close to Rainbow Dash's throat. Rainbow Dash gulped as she closed her eyes and wept, hoping Madness Steve wouldn't do what she thought he would do. This was becoming way too much. Madness Steve isn't like Tirek, Chrysalis or Cozy Glow or any bad guy she and everypony else had faced, Madness Steve is generally a psychopath. Madness Steve is something even worse than evil. At first, Rainbow Dash thought Madness Steve was just another bad guy needed to be put in place, but no, Madness Steve is in a totally different league. Madness Steve is worse than some random, petty bad guy. Madness Steve is so awful that Rainbow Dash couldn't even think of anything to describe Madness Steve.
"Spike was destroyed. By the sword. This very sword," Madness Steve chillingly said, making Rainbow Dash feel even more petrified and on edge, now with the knowledge that the sword that now apparently killed Spike is right against her throat. Madness Steve then puts away his lava-looking sword. Rainbow Dash slowly opened her eyes. She then saw Madness Steve flying directly at her. Rainbow Dash closed her eyes again and lets out a terrible, bellowing scream of fright, not knowing what Madness Steve was exactly doing at this point. Madness Steve then un-pauses time, then hovers away from Rainbow Dash. To everyone and everypony else, Rainbow Dash just for some reason started screaming and all of a sudden stopped. Rainbow Dash slowly opened her eyes and realized time was un-paused again and that she could move.
"Spike was destroyed," Said Madness Steve. Nopony or no one could even cry as that came as a very sudden shock.
"Why would you do that to Spike!?" Rainbow Dash shrieked in just complete horror.
"Why!? He never did anything to you!" Applejack yelled at Madness Steve.
"He was no use to me, he was useless, so I destroyed him," Madness Steve chillingly replied. All of this is completely out of nowhere it just left them all anger and sad, but speechless, unable to say anything.
"You all are easily hurt, let's do something to hurt you all more," Madness Steve chuckled as he summoned one bolt of lightning and destroyed Elemental Steve like it was nothing. Everyone gasped as they turned to see where Elemental Steve was standing.
"NO! ELEMENTAL! No... no..." Sabre said bit by bit, quieter each time he spoke.
"You monster! He was... MY BROTHER!" Time Steve shouted, with a whole range of angry and upset emotions.
"Hey, at least he's alive in an alternative timeline," Madness Steve's laugh echoed.
"But you still destroyed Elemental... the steves here too... and Spike who was also whisked out of his dimension by you... you're... you're... a... a monster!" Sabre angrily shouted, huffing and puffing as he glared at Madness Steve, unable to do anything with the Shadow Sword broken in half.
"Well, let's see all the different alternate timelines where you would die," Madness Steve chuckled as he projects himself into the minds of Sabre, Time Steve, Light Steve and the mane 6. There, Madness Steve began to show them all the infinite ways they would die or be killed in alternate realities.
"No more please! It's horrify... hing hing hing hing... ple... he... he he hease stop!" Fluttershy cried as she begged for all of this to stop, flooding her face with tears.
"Stop! I don't want to see anymore!" Light Steve shouted, walking about and moving his head about like crazy. They were all begging for Madness Steve to stop.
"Ah I could go on for hours, this is amusing," Madness Steve laughed.
"No! Just... just STOP!" Twilight screamed, getting down to the ground, trying to cover her eyes with her forehooves in hope that Madness Steve would stop projecting himself into the minds of everyone and everypony. But it just made the projections of the alternate timelines much worse.
"STOP PLEASE!" Pinkie Pie screamed.
"We're begging you... to stop... please just stop!" Sabre exclaimed as his sanity began to break down and collapse. Soon, Sabre, Time Steve, Light Steve and the mane 6 collapsed to the floor, flopping and shaking as the alternative timelines of them dying in their minds got even worse. Madness Steve then made them experience the pain they would've experienced when they were dying in the different alternate timelines. They all began screaming in sheer pain. Soon, they could no longer scream or begging for everything to stop as the pain became that unbearable. Then all of a sudden, they were all teleported to a lab of some sorts, only then did they stop seeing the alternate universes of themselves dying in different ways as well as the pain. The ceiling of the room they were all teleported to was made entirely of stone bricks, with a few chains that have either lanterns or blocks of redstone hung onto the chains. There is a stone brick table with a book, paper and a range of different redstone materials on this table as well. There is also dark oak shelves with redstone, repeaters, redstone torches and redstone lamps on them. On 2 sides, there is also a wooden door with 2 Red Steve banners on each side of the door, with one of the side having spiral stairs made of quartz with a basalt pilar in the middle. These stairs led to another set of spiral stairs made of spiral stairs made of spruce, which led to an observatory that has a gigantic wooden telescope and some bookshelves. On the side opposite of the stairs just led to another room. Sabre then looks to see a Red Steve with a white science coat and a pair of black goggles with orange glasses above their eyes as well as a salmon on their head. Sabre immediately knew where they are and who the Red Steve is. Surprisingly, no one questioned the salmon on the head of the Red Steve.
