Five Nights of Redemption

Hey guys this is chapter 11 of Redemption, here the crew will go to the human world of Equestria and find Sunset and Starlight but what will be reviled, let's find out

Chapter 11: human again

While everyone/everypony was asleep they had forgotten about the Monster Kid, he was walking around the castle looking for something awesome to do, he was still scared of Undyne since she was mad at him and was probably going to kill him for constantly bringing up the reason behind her killing humans thing, so she was not a good idea to bother, then there was Rainbow Dash, she seemed cool to him but she was also much older so didn't have time for pipsqueaks like him.

The Monster Kid also liked Lenny, a tall, handsome and mean looking Lion would get any kid's attention and he wanted to be like him too, but he has no arms and Lenny takes pride in them too, without them his feral mode would be useless and he'd scrape his face on the ground, but then he came up to one of the chambers that was lavished in pink and blue, it looked like the doors to a baby's room, he opened the door and looked inside, it was Flurry Heart's chambers and she was stirring quite a lot.

The Monster Kid tried to comfort her by placing his head on hers but this only woke her up and she started crying and released her powerful magic, the sound of the magic woke everyone/everypony else up and they ran to see what the problem was, when they got there they saw the Monster Kid panicking in the corner.

Shining: "hey Kid, what are you doing in my daughter's room?"

Undyne: "wait, you're here too?"

Monster Kid: "I was bored so I tried to find something to do, maybe play with someone, I found this room and saw this girl here and thought I could play with her, but when I looked at her she was having a bad dream and I thought maybe a hug would make her sleep better, when I touched her though she woke up crying and shot this powerful magic everywhere"

Sans: "she sounds distressed, is there any way we can perhaps talk to her?"

Cadence: "well until she learns to talk verbally we can use magic to see what she's thinking"

Marionette: "umm, impressive, let's see what's on her mind"

Cadence then used a spell on Flurry Heart that brings out a thought bubble from her horn, from it they saw a devastated Canterlot high, building burning, windows smashed, students screaming and Sunset with Starlight seeming to be distraught, something bad has happened but unlike what Cadence had previously predicted, they were not the course of the disaster.

Everyone/everypony had to find out what was the course of this disaster if it has even happened yet, Flurry Heart has been known to have premonitions of a possible future just like her aunty Celestia and the ponies have used them to stop possible threats like when King Sombre came back again but this time went to Ponyville to try and make Twilight his wife, she almost gave in to his dark magic but Rarity was never going to let that happen and threw Opalescence at his face and he got shredded up, Twilight was thankful to have friends that meant the world to them and her and Opalescence got a ton of Catnip that night.

Twilight: "so Flurry Heart had a vision of Canterlot high being destroyed and it looks as if Sunset and Starlight are trying to stop it, but then why did Sunset ponynap our Starlight, surely there's a human Starlight in that world, right?"

Octavia: "well, think of it this way, have any of you seen a human Sunset"

Everypony: "no"

Octavia: "precisely, maybe there is no human Sunset and perhaps the same is true for Starlight, Sunset knows Starlight has time magic much like DR Whooves and so stole her to put things right"

Luna: "the only way we can know for sure is to find Sunset or Starlight and ask them what's going on"

Everyone/everypony went to get themselves ready to travel, they were effectively going to another new universe but it was more like a sub universe, it was still within the realm of Equestria but it had some minor changes to pull it apart from the main universe of Equestria, the crew got as much food like burgers, pizza and cola as they could, the ponies got tools, books and other items and the monsters had their inventories full of Spider donuts and Temmie flakes.

They gathered around the mirror and looked into it, all they saw was themselves so most of them just looked around the massive party they have now become, but Mike and Chip kept looking at the mirror lost in their fascination, the longer they looked at it the more they saw something that has long since been lost, their human bodies, they could see that they have aged quite a lot but they have aged well, what wrinkles they may have were only slight and not very defined, their hair had resided a bit but kept its colour and they hadn't gained or lost any weight, they seem to be the same height as they remember too.

As they looked at themselves in the mirror Twilight got in the way and started to talk about their next adventure and what to expect to happen.

Twilight: "ok everyone/everypony, as some of you may know this mirror is a gate way to an alternate universe, it leads to a horse statue at a secondary school known as Canterlot high, the universe is a human based world that reveres the horse as its god"

Chip: "umm, sounds like India if you ask me"

Mike: "got that right"

Twilight: "focus, now as we go through the mirror you may be transformed into a human or an animal of some kind, when Spike went through he became a Dog, it was very weird but we got used to it and now every... one, still getting used to that, is my friend, so prepare yourself and let's go"

Sans: "wait one moment, me and Papyrus are technically already human, just skeletons, what will happen to us"

Papyrus: "nayh"

Applejack: "I reckon you'd just have skin on your bones"

Papyrus: "sounds good to me, let's go"

So everyone/everypony went through the mirror and into the human world of Equestria, this time there was no travelling through the multiple universes to get there, it was an almost instant jump from one place to the other, as they came through the mirror and out of the statue the ponies had transformed into humans and were wearing mostly the same as the human versions were apart from Applejack who was wearing denim jeans instead of a skirt and thought "I wouldn't be caught dead wearing those stupid thangs"

The monsters came though and just like what Applejack said Sans and Papyrus had skin over their bones, Undyne and Toriel lost their scales and fur and had skin instead but Toriel got more hair to compensate and the Monster Kid had transformed into a ginger Cat and had all 4 legs.

The crew of course had become human again but to them it was a big deal, a very big deal, they had gone through so much in their time, being children of vast imaginations, getting killed at a young age, wanting peace and to be free again, losing their minds so many times, getting revenge, finding peace, coming back to earth, becoming alive again and being anthro, and now finally being alive and human again was like a dream that had been lost coming true it took them a long while to come to terms with this and they had to try and take it all in.

The part of the crew that weren't human to begin with were astonished with their new look and gave their bodies a once over.

Toy Bonnie: "well would you look at me, I look great"

Mangle: "omg, I look like a tom boy, I like it, not too girly but if they want a piece of me I can still shake it, wait... ahh! My tail's gone"

Finn: "don't worry you still look good"

Mangle: "and so do you, umm"

Opal: "oh wow Ashe, you look amazing"

Ashe: "yeah look at us, we have matching clothes, awesome"

Chip: "so now I'm human again can I go back to my real name?"

Mike: "I don't see why not, Jeremy"

Jeremy: "yes, I'm back baby"

Marionette: "at least you remember your name, I don't remember mine, oh well I turned out good"

Chica: "Mike, am I, beautiful?"

Mike: "oh wow, Chica you are... gorgeous, you can bring the house down with those looks"

Chica: "aww thanks, you don't look so bad yourself"

The crew was still mentally shocked by their looks, it was what they would have looked like if they had lived, it was talking a while for them to take it all in so to help them adjust Twilight used her remaining Equestrian magic to calm them down, here in the human world the ponies can only use their magic when they show off their element so the next time they need to use their magic it will have to be as they are in the middle of helping a friend the best way they know how.

Now that everyone/everypony is ready, they set off to find Sunset, she would most likely be in the school but what would she be doing and is Starlight involved, that is what they've come to find out, as they went through the school evidence of Twilight's influence of her accomplishments were everywhere, students were trying to show off their passions to see if they would pony up and gain magic to be a more helpful friend to their class mates, others wanted to pony up so they could practise for the next friendship games, whether it should be banned or not was still up for debate so they kept trying.

Some students even brought their pets in to school, it was very controversial but it also provided a means of helping students understand what some animals do to survive in harsh climates, every week a student would do a show and tell style of presentation of their pet, this week was a boy and his Bearded Dragon.

Other students tried out for the next battle of the bands, which in turn was renamed the Rainbow Rocks contest, schools from the area would send 3 bands to face off with each other, they'd even have bands from the same school fight each other as well, it was a survive of the most talented.

Twilight liked the changes that had been made to the school, it made things much better for them and surely they'd fight off any threat, but this got Twilight thinking "if the school has become this talented why then did Flurry Heart show us Canterlot burning with people screaming all over, what's going on?" they kept moving to find Sunset, she must know what's going on by now, after all she ponynaped Starlight and she can travel through time.

As they walked down the hall, Freddy found a wire that seemed out of place so he followed it, not noticing what Freddy was doing the others left him behind to do his thing, he followed the wire to a room where the door was left ajar, in side he saw a girl looking at computers that she had linked to CCTV cameras from the future where the event had already occurred, she seemed to be looking for where the first explosion happened in an attempt to anticipated it and stop it.

Freddy: "hey what you doing?"

?: "bagh! Don't do that, you almost scared my socks off"

Freddy: "sorry, who are you?"

Starlight: "I'm Starlight Glimmer, I'm helping Sunset stop something that will happen in a few days time, or if not it will happen today in just a few hours"

Freddy: "what exactly is that?"

Starlight: "I'd tell you but, Sunset says you can't be trusted"

Freddy: "and why not, you do know I'm with Twilight right?"

Starlight: "yes and that is why she said you cannot be trusted"

Freddy: "what?"

Freddy was stumped, he knew a bit about Starlight and how she tried to erase the mane 6 from time but that would only result in the complete destruction of Equestria so she managed to bury the hatchet and put the time line back in order but now she's saying that Twilight cannot be trusted, something must have happened to Sunset to have her say that.

Meanwhile with the others, Twilight lead the crew into the lecture hall which is also the indoor basket ball court, it seemed that Sunset was giving a speech about some impending doom that may or may not happen at some point today, everyone just thought she was some whacko and went for lunch, Twilight tried to talk to her.

Twilight: "Sunset, you ok? What's going on?"

Sunset: "Twilight, I may have stolen Starlight but don't you come perching the benefits of having friends to me now, you won't there when I needed you most"

Twilight: "what are you talking about?"

Sunset: "did you see the thoughts that Flurry Heart had?"

Rarity: "yes we did, they were the most awful things I've ever seen"

Fluttershy: "I'm getting scared just thinking about it"

Rainbow Dash: "ah, don't worry guys we can pound anyone who tries to destroy this school"

Sunset: "then why weren't you there when I saw it happen, Flurry Heart wasn't the only pony to have those dreams"

Monster Cat: "wow are you two linked or something?"

Sunset: "perhaps"

Twilight: "well we can help now"

Sunset: "no, you didn't help then and you won't help now, it's an unending cycle"

Sunset was so mad at Twilight for not helping in her dream that she sang a song about destruction and ruin and how the savour of the land was nowhere to be found, Freddy and Starlight had rejoined the crew at this point.

(Now play Let It Burn by RED)

Sunset: "I watched the city burn, these dreams like ashes float away,

Your voice I never heard, only silence,

Where were you when our hearts were bleeding, where were you, it all crashed down,

Never thought that you'd deceive me, where are you now?

How long, can you stand the pain,

How long will you hide your face,

How long will you be afraid,

Are you afraid,

How long, will you play this game,

Will you fight or will you walk away,

How long will you let it burn, let it burn,

Let it burn,

I watched the city burn, these passions slowly smouldering,

A lesson never learned, only violence,

Is your word just a broken promise

Is your love just a drop of rain,

Will we all just burn like fire,

Are you still there, tell me now,

How long, can you stand the pain,

How long will you hide your face,

How long will you be afraid,

Are you afraid,

How long, will you play this game,

Will you fight or will you walk away,

How long will you let it burn, let it burn,

Let it burn"

As the song finished Twilight tried to get close to Sunset but she backed away and showed Twilight something she thought she couldn't do anymore especially since the elements of harmony aren't in this world any more, Sunset seemed to gain power from her feelings of wanting nothing more than power and the power she got from the element of magic, she was engulfed in a tower of fire and it was hot enough to melt the steel basket ball pools, the tower of fire then subsided and Sunset had become the same she demon from when she first entered the human world.

Sunset had all the powers she had back then and even gave Starlight the same powers and she transformed too, but instead of having a fire theme she had a time theme, her clothes were very Victorian esc, her hair and tail was curly and wavy, her wings were like swan wings but were attached to her body via a small corset and brass arms, Starlight almost looked like a princess.

Twilight was scared, she had no idea Sunset could be this evil again just because of some strange premonition that showed her the end of Canterlot high and Twilight wasn't there to help save it, well now she can help to defend Canterlot high from whatever force of destruction that may come to destroy it, but first Twilight has to save Sunset... again.

Rainbow Dash: "whoa, this is what you faced when you first stopped Sunset?"

Twilight: "yep"

Applejack: "well sugar cube, don't ever let me question the ruggedness of Earth ponies against the magic of unicorns again ok?"

Twilight: "no problem"

Sunset: "this is for letting me think I could do things on my own, and for not replying to my messages"

Starlight: "that isn't much of a reason to be angry"

Sunset: "hey you're supposed to back me up"

Rarity: "oh come on, even I find that a petty reason to hate on Twilight"

Pinkie: "she's got you pegged Sunset"

Sunset: "oh just shut up and die"

Sunset charged her magic and shot a few bolts at everyone/everypony, they had to dodge and weave through every shot in hopes of not getting hit, for those who were used to flying it was harder on them because their wings had gone, but they still had their powers to help them so for Oscar he used his power of manipulating sound waves to get extra speed, Chica could become a lightning bolt and zip around the hall, Robin used her possessing ability to take control of Starlight to fight Sunset.

They engaged in fisticuffs and threw punch after punch and kept going until a solid whack to Starlight's head snapped her out of Robin's possession, Monty then came up to them both and knocked their heads together, this got them both mad, Starlight used a time dilation field on them and some of the crew stopped in time, to them nothing happened and they saw Sunset and Starlight on the floor, but to everyone else they had stopped.

Jeremy: "ok, where is Sam Carter when you need her"

Mike: "maybe she's suing Disney for steeling the Star Gate in Big Hero 6"

Twilight was oblivious to the joke but she thought it had something to do with a show from their universe, she dismissed it and continued to think of things to do to stop Sunset and Starlight, she wanted to use her pony up power but Fluttershy, Applejack and Rainbow Dash were caught in the time field, then she thought about Freddy's time thing but he said that he could only go back in time and only use it if all else fails, there must be another way.

She knew a bit about the Marionette, he is the human that died first and became a creature of supreme power, enough to give life back to the others that died, maybe he has enough power to use it without the need to show any kind of personal trait and stop Sunset and Starlight before they do something they'll regret.

Twilight: "hey Stuart, want to be useful?"

Stuart: "umm... yes, what's on your mind?"

Twilight: "if you've got the speed still I need you to punch them for a while so Marionette and use his power and deplete Sunset's and Starlight's magic"

Stuart: "sounds like a plan, I'm in"

So Stuart prepped his human legs and ran as fast as he could, luckily he had not lost any of his speed and he could run up the walls of the hall, but the walls were farther away from his target so to hit them he had to stop then immediately jump with all his might, he came in like a rocket, he hit Sunset who then tried to find out who could have done that, Bonnie was wanting to help too so to add to the confusion he used his telekinesis on Starlight who knocked into Sunset which got them arguing, Stuart came around again and punched them both in the face, they were now dizzy and Marionette was ready to use his attack.

Marionette: "say cheese"

He shot his ball of magic at Sunset and Starlight and it hit them coursing a wave of energy to surround them, it stripped them of their magic and then fell to the floor, losing their powers coursed the time field to dissipate and everyone/everypony was now experiencing time at the same rate.

Rainbow Dash: "whoa what happened, did I miss something awesome"

Twilight: "don't worry guys I got my head together with the others and stopped Sunset and Starlight, but now the real question, who or what is the course of Canterlot's destruction?"

Starlight: "a very powerful pony, one you may not have seen before, I don't know who he is or why he's about to do it but his power may rival yours and he's only a unicorn"

Sunset: "don't worry though we'll help you"

Freddy: "us too"

Pete: "indeed we'll help or die trying"

?: "muahahaha, die trying, I love it when people and ponies say that"

Vinyl: "ok hot shot who are you?"

Moonlight: "my name is Moonlight Star, and I shall be the new sole ruler of Equestria"

Moonlight Star somehow entered the human world and stayed as a pony, he was going to destroy Canterlot high and turn it into a base to send those who choose to follow him into the Crystal Empire and take out all the guards so he could effortlessly use the Crystal Heart to transform himself into an Alicorn King and take the throne from Celestia, will he succeed or will he fail, the answer shall be reviled soon.

So that was chapter 11 of Five Nights of Redemption I hope you liked it and the song choice and be sure to fav follow and review and of course till next time
