Chapter 12

"Star Streak, oh Star Streak, I thought I could trust you." "I'm sorry, Rosebudd. I just-" "No! No buts or I justs. You didn't follow my instructions. You shall be punished." The changeling got out of Rage's grip and changed to look like Star Streak, herself. She stood in front of Rosebudd. "Too bad you must die now. You were a pretty good henchman. Say goodbye, Star Streak!" The unicorn empowered her horn and then pointed it at Star Streak. A beam of white colored light came out and went towards Star. Star Streak closed her eyes and covered her face as though that would help.

Star Streak fell backwards while waiting for a pain beyond imagine. She was unconscious. Rosebudd gasped. Around Star Streak was a red force field. The ponies turned around to see that Dark had made the force field. Firebird then threw blades at Rosebudd. Rosebudd put up a shield that looked like a rose. She got pushed back a bit. "You fools! With this amulet, survive any attack you have!" said Rosebudd.

Star Streak woke up. Twilight was looking over her. "Am I dead?" asked Star. Twilight shook her head. "What does Rosebudd's amulet do?" asked Twilight. "The amulet is special. The amulet enhances your special talent. Unfortunately, for her, she is able to make protection with it." Twilight looked up at Canterlot. She wondered how Celestia was doing.

Back at Canterlot, Celestia was having her own problems. "Sister! The episode is over and it's a commercial break! Why can't I look out!" said an angry Luna. Celestia was sweating. Luna started jumping until... "Oh sister! The other episode came on." Luna looked at Celestia, suspiciously and then sat on the couch again.

Back at the Moon Empire, Rosebudd blew a fuse and started attacking more viciously. "YOU DON'T KNOW HOW IT FEELS TO SEE YOUR PARENTS DIE!" said Rosebudd as she threw bits of buildings and hard rocks that pounded and hit the force field. "I...can't...hold it...much longer!" yelled Dark. "...TO SEE EVERYPONY GET GOOD PARENTS WHILE NOPONY WANT'S YOU!" Firebird teleported behind Rosebudd only to be hit with a giant building. After being hit, she burned into flames. "FIRE!" said all of the ponies except for Maya, Katie, and Dark. "GET OUT OF THE FORCEFIELD, NOW!" Yelled Dark. The ponies were obedient and went out behind the forcefield.

"TO HAVE AN UNCLE WHO ADOPTS YOU BUT TREATS YOU LIKE A SLAVE!" Yelled Rosebudd as she threw the statue of Luna. It hit the force field and made it shatter. As it shattered, Dark was doing his special ability: Aura Soul. He turned into his first stage. A cloak went over him and his scythe was attached to a chain. He threw his scythe which was only deflected by a shield made out of water.

Meanwhile, Fluttershy watched as what was left of Firebird was ashes. Then, light came off of it and the light was in the form of a bird, a phoenix. While still in flames, the phoenix transformed in to an alicorn shape. Then, it flew around with light and shot a beam at Rosebudd. She screamed in agony as the beam hit her.

While Rosebudd was distracted by Firebird, Dark went in to his second stage of his Aura Soul. He turned in to a big bone dragon. Rosebudd turned and used a ray of frost on the dragon only to have it absorbed by the dragon and used the same attack except more powerful.

Katie and Maya watched as all of this was taking place. "Looks like I've failed my mission, Katie. I'm not going to fight anything because I'm useless." said Maya. Katie nodded. Then, they looked around. The Mane 6 were surrounding them. "You are not useless." said Twilight. Maya and Katie watched as the Mane 6 lit up. The power of friendship was illuminating off of them. Twilight watched as the Power made the shape of what their elements looked like. Just then, a beam of light went towards Maya.

Meanwhile, Dark the bone dragon absorbed a shield that Rosebudd just put up. The dragon then used the power to put a shield around himself. He then breathed fire at her. All was still. That is, until a beaten Rosebudd blew another fuse and threw Water fire at Dark. The dark then unleashed his final stage, Juggernaut stage! Half Dragon and Half knight, he absorbed Rosebudd's water fire and threw it at her. At the same time, Firebird threw knives at Rosebudd. Rosebudd made a evaporating force field, stopping all attacks. Dark tried absorbing the field but it didn't work.

Rosebudd laughed as she hit both Firebird and Dark with something they couldn't deflect. "You guys think you can defeat me?! Well, I don't really want the Moon Kingdom. I want Equestria. Equestria is hard to take over for a filly, so, I needed another power. The power is a mystery called the Mystery of the Moon Kingdom. I couldn't find it but it seems this amulet is good enough for me if I can defeat the famous Dark Reaper, I can defeat Celestia." "NO! YOU CAN'T!"
