He couldn't believe he was going to begin killing horse gods on another planet with help from miniature equines. It had been a crazy vacation on another world for him. Steven began to assign jobs for the mission. "Trixie you are with me. Fluttershy will follow in behind us." Fluttershy's evil smile turned into a neutral face. "What about angel?" sure enough, the bunny jumped out from her mane. "Do you know how to pilot this thing" angel nodded and jumped into the FYS. the war machines arm moved into a salute and angel had a 'let's do this' face on. He gave him a nod and knelt down, tapping fluttershy's shoulder. "Here, eat this. Once consumed it will protect you from magic damage for 20 minutes. It also will give you enchanted armor." She bit into it and sure enough black armor with crimson red grooves and designs formed around her head, body and legs. Steven turned into his fire form and looked at the city. "Angel, cover us with the bot while we head to the throne room. You have 5000 rounds of ammunition in that thing, so feel free to take out any rebelling forces. Just save some extra rounds if we need you to help the attack. Move out!"
They charged the castle with speed and with ease. Steven only had to take out two guards on the way. Trixie also had a set of armor now, due to the guards he came across. He ran 50 yards in front of them, just in case the guards found them he could take the main chunk of the attack. The group quickly got to the entrance of the main castle. He walked in slowly, cloaking thus making him invisible. He found four guards all with spears at the stairway. The princesses knew he would come and so they buffed up the defenses. He grabbed one guard and snapped his neck killing him near instantly. He grabbed his spear and let his invisibility war off. He thrusted the spear forward impaling a guard right under his jaw. He stumbled back and fell over dead. One guard shoved his spear forward, only for Steven to grab it and pull him forward, latching ahold of the earth pony's head. He lifted him up and slammed his head on the staircase, breaking his skull with a loud crack. While he had his back turned a guard charged him. The guard was lifted in the air by a pink aura. He tried to scream but he was stopped by hundreds of snapping noises going off at the same time. The aura stopped soon after and the body fell to the ground limp. He looked up and saw his minion, Trixie smiling at him. He gave her a nod and they continued on.
The three fought their way to the prison room. They walked quickly to the door before they were ambushed. They turned and saw at least thirty armored guards surrounding them. "Shit, Trixie fluttershy stand back, I will hold them off you get angel and head to the throne room!" they galloped off and he faced the guards that were around him. Steven turned into his ifrit form and got into a fighting stance. One guard headed off towards his fleeing companions and he punched the guard into a cell, breaking the bars when he hit. He began to swat and kick at any guards that charged him. One guard hit him with a stance device and he quickly began shifting back into his human form. He began to back away now that he was in a weaker form. He could take down some of them, but 20 or so versus him he would lose. They were around 2 feet shorter than him, but their spears would take him out painfully and quickly. Suddenly a black and crimson flash tacked town a guard and got their attention. Using the distraction Steven kicked one in the face with his boot breaking his jaw and knocking him down. He grabbed the unicorn guard by the head and threw him, the downed guard's horn impaling another in the chest. Steven grabbed a broken bar from a now empty cell and struck a guard who was fighting the Pegasus from the cell. He grabbed the Pegasus and threw him towards the exit. He ran towards the exit as well, ushering the stallion to follow.
The two ran out of the prison area with the guards not far behind. The black and grey stallion grabbed the strange device from his chest and ripped it off. Steven felt his energy and magic flow through him once more. He returned to the larger form as the guards came at them. The grey and black stallion sped into one, tackling him and breaking his back with the force. Steven shot a ball of energy into the group and killed half of the guards with the magical blow. He stomped on the ground, the force sending a guard in the air for the black Pegasus to fly up and kick him down. The guard hit another on the ground and the two didn't seem like they were going to do anything anytime soon. The three remaining guards backed away only for a certain yellow mare to drop down and crush one underneath her. She uppercutted one and kicked the other, dropping all three in a matter of seconds. She yelled "be assertive!" He recognized that it was fluttershy.
"Thought you would have left" Steven commented sarcastically. She smiled and looked at the new Pegasus companion. He was black with a grey mane and tail, with a crimson-red stripe going vertically along of his mane and tail, which was in a style very similar or identical to rainbow dashes. The mark on his flank was a lightning bolt's shadow on the moon. He had royal blue eyes as well. "Names midnight arrow miss, now what are we doin" we spoke with a confident attitude. "We're off to take down the princesses, you in?" midnight arrow gave a smirk. "Sure, why not"
They found the throne room in quick time. Angel (who was operating the F.Y.S) and Trixie found them and followed to the destination. "Angel, get ready to fire. Trixie, prepare a shield spell. Fluttershy, weaponize your adorableness please. Midnight, use your speed and take out the princess of the night. By your name I assume darkness is your best friend so you go after her. I'll head after celestia and take out guards in our way. Let's move"
Steven kicked the door open and shifted to his larger ifrit form. He looked and saw a mountain of guards. He estimated 400 of them in one room, along with the princesses. Unicorns, Pegasus and earth ponies gazed at them with a stubbornness in the air. "Get back!" Steven yelled, pushing his companions back and casting a barrier spell. Angel (still in the F.Y.S) opened fire. Trails of lead flew through the air until the war machine ran out. Only 1/50th of the vast swarm of guards fell as more and more came in. "you asshole, did you plan this!" midnight arrow screamed, anger (and surprisingly no panic) erupting from him. Steven shook his head signaling a no. they noticed two dozen more enemy guards coming from behind them "you take them, I'll handle this room". Midnight arrow, Trixie, fluttershy and angel began to hold off the guards as Steven charged into the enormous throne room. Steven ran at the rulers while swinging his large flaming arms randomly, striking anything that was in their path. He eventually reach the princesses and jumped at them while they readied their magic. He was going to remember this fight for a while.
He swung his hand down towards celestia, missing and having his claws stick into the throne.(A/N he's in his ifrit currently, look up ifrit to see what it is if you don't know) he was hit by a bolt of blue magic but ignored it and pulled his hand back, breaking the throne and freeing his hand. He swung again only to be struck by a yellow blast instead. He immediately lunged at celestia and flew at her with speeds rainbow would be proud of. He grappled her and spun throughout the air in a downwards spiral until the crashed into the ground. He tried to stand up only for a black sword with a dark blue aura to pierce his chest. He gasped for air and was shot backwards by a giant yellow beam. He saw guards surround and slowly get closer to his companions. He closed his eyes and growled continuously, getting louder and deeper each time. He opened his eyes and walked towards the guards through the new darkness.
MIDNIGHT ARROWS P.O.V
Midnight arrow punched a guard knocking him back. Midnight arrow breathed heavily. They were losing to the dozens of guards that kept coming and replacing wounded ones. "Fuck, fuck, fuck, and fuck, we done fucked up" he muttered while kicking a guard in the snout. He watched as Luna created a sword via magic and thrusted it through Stevens's chest. Princess celestia shot him with her magic and his large white and black form lay nearly lifeless. He closed his eyes and everything got progressively darker and the air got thicker. He opened his eyes and everything went black. Every two or three seconds the light came back momentarily. During the short span of light, a completely black void appeared and began to walk towards guards. Every time afterwards, the span of light showed more and more lifeless guards laying on the ground. The lights came on to allow Midnight arrow to see Steven standing over the princesses.
STEVENS P.O.V
He destroyed them all. All the guards fell to his hand as he went on a rage. All that was left was him, his group and the princesses. "I would and want to take your lives right now. I was under a spell and you hold me accountable for actions I had no intent of. Then you tried to kill me" he pulled the black sword from his chest, and pointed it at their necks. "I would take your lives, but I made an oath to never harm you when I first arrived. I do not forgive you but I had something planned for you" Steven began to laugh an evil cackle.
(A/N more to be coming soon. Still have stuff planned for the story. Reviews will be nice. Oc's may be submitted and will probably get put into the story. Thanks for the support and 500+ views in the time it's been up.)
