Prisoner escape
Luke woke up in a white room, "Oh shit, am I with Old Man again?"
"Who is 'Old Man'?" a voice asked.
"Where the hell am I?"
"In an interrogation room." the voice replied.
Luke shot his hands up and rubbed his face. He slowly got up, ignoring the headache, and looked at who was talking. It was a blue horse with wings and a horn. He saw that there was a table and promptly slammed his head against the wood. There was a chair beside the table, so he pulled it out on sat on it. He muttered, "Guess I better get used to weird sights since I took this job."
"What are you talking about?"
"Nothing important. Now, who are you?" asked Luke.
"I'm Princess Luna. Who are you?"
"I'm no one important." said Luke, looking up at Luna.
"What are you?" asked Luna.
"What are you?" asked Luke.
"I asked first." said Luna.
"I'm human, what're you?"
"An alicorn."
"Oh yeah, that explains everything! Where am I?"
"You're in an interrogation room."
Luke outstretched his hand, making into a claw, and slowly moved it to his face, before calming himself down. He asked, "Where is the interrogation room at?"
"In the castle." said Luna, as if it was common knowledge.
"Now you want to ask me something?"
"What did you mean a job?" asked Luna.
Luke silently cursed himself before saying, "I was hired."
"And why did whoever it was hire you?"
"Because this job requires ten percent luck, twenty percent skill, fifteen percent of concentrated power of will, five percent pleasure, and fifty percent pain, which is equal to a hundred percent need to remember this game." said Luke, easily quoting the song Remember the Name.
"And what was the job?" asked Luna.
"Can't tell ya, will that be all?" asked Luke.
"For now." said Luna as she walked to the door where there were seven other ponies waiting for her from what Luke could see. He just leaned back, and waited for Dameon to show up, but couldn't relax long as a pink blur came up in front of him. It was sudden enough that he reacted by pushing his chair back, which tipped over the chair and sent them both tumbling to the floor.
"Now what?" grumbled Luke as he sat up.
"Hi, I'm Pinkie Pie!" came an over excited voice, followed by another.
"Pinkie what are you doing!? It could be dangerous!"
"Oh great. Am I going to be annoyed to death?" His eyes widened, "Oh shit is that possible!?" While Luke started panicking Pinkie tried to console him.
"No one's going to annoy you, unless you let them annoy you!" That, of course, made him panic more, since almost everything got on his nerves.
While Pinkie patted his back with her hoof, trying to comfort him, Twilight was trying to get Pinkie out of there. "Pinkie! It could be dangerous! It attacked Ponyville so it is already dangerous!"
Twilight was ignored as Pinkie tried to comfort him. Finally calming down a bit Luke managed to push back up his chair and sit in it. "What do you want anyways?" he asked, as if what just happened didn't happen.
"We're here to ask you some questions!" said Pinkie, a lamp was then brought up out of nowhere and Pinkie shined it into his eyes. "Are you a spy?"
Luke though was having a different problem. "My eyes!" Luke shouted as both of his hands shot up and covered his eyes. He rubbed his eyes, trying to get the spots out of his vision. "Why?!" shouted Luke, still rubbing his eyes.
"I'm asking the questions here!" Pinkie shouted, "Now, what is your name?"
"I'm Jeff." said Luke, putting on his best poker face. Suddenly a southern voice called out, "Liar!"
"Oh come on! My poker face can't be that bad. Is it?" asked Luke, showing his poker to Pinkie.
Pinkie just burst into laughter. "Wow, it must be bad." muttered Luke.

Dameon smiled as the Warthog climbed through the mountain. It was handling the rough terrain like a dream. A thought crossed his mind. How was he going to get Luke out of wherever he was? Just as he started to contemplate another song came on the radio. The song stirred an idea in his mind. He just hoped that he could get there before the song ended. A feral grin came across his face as he imagined Luke's reaction to it.

Luke sat there as a plate of sweets towered over him. All it took was the mention that he was hungry and Pinkie went on a spree of baking sweets for him. "Wow, that was amazing." commented Luke, seeing Pinkie at work.
"Thanks!" said Pinkie who was somewhere in front of the pile, accepting the compliment.
Luke grabbed something random off the pile and saw that it was encrusted with gems. He gave it a disbelieving look, before picking out some of the gems and placing them in his pocket. Any gem that was still in there, he spat it out silently and pocketed it. 'I'm rich mother fucker!' thought Luke.
Luke felt a slight itching on his chest. He reached down to scratch it, and remember that was where his sword hit him. He looked at it and looked in awe as it started to closed itself up. 'How?' thought Luke. He reached for another piece of food, this one was a normal chocolate chip muffin. He bit into it and again felt an itch. This time it was over his heart. He looked down and saw the spear wound close up completely. While his chest was still closing up. He also noticed that he wasn't as hungry as he was before.
He reached over and grabbed another sweet. He saw that this one was once again covered in gems. He did the same as before, but then heard music. He listened hard and he could finally make out the words. His eyes shot wide open. "NOOO!" He raced towards the door and slammed into it repeatedly. "I will kill you!"
The door, taking enough punishment, finally broke as Luke fell to the ground. He pushed himself back up and ran towards the music. "I'll kill you!" shouted Luke repeatedly as he raced down the hallways.

Dameon just watched as the multicolored horses started to form a group around the Warthog. As long as they didn't do anything, he wouldn't attack. Yet. That was when he heard Luke shouting, "I'll kill you!" He quickly sat up, surprising the horses. His eyes quickly darted around the area, trying to find Luke. He finally saw him racing towards the car, intent to kill obvious. Dameon quickly reached over and turned off the radio, silencing the Justin Beiber song, 'Baby.'
Luke jumped into the car, before hitting Dameon a few times. "Now drive before they catch up. I'll keep them off of us."
Dameon quickly rolled to the driver's seat and drove back the way he came. Luke sat in the back, facing towards the castle that they were driving away from. He saw three shadows on the ground and quickly looked up. Above him was that rainbow pony, Luna, and a new white pony.
"Keep driving, we got chasers!" shouted Luke, nicknaming the pursuers. Luke stood up, gripped the side of the Warthog to keep him up, he aimed his other arm upwards, and shot a beam of ice at them. All three of them quickly moved out of the way, though.
'Wall of Ice maybe? Couldn't hurt to try.' thought Luke with a shrug. He focused on his arm and, to anything looking at his hand, a small square of ice appeared. Luke waited for them to get closer together and fired. A wall of ice, 20 feet wide, 30 feet tall flew out of his hand and was aimed straight for the pursuers. The energy that it required, though, caused Luke to fall to his knees, and passed out.
The ice wall kept it's course and, before the pursuers managed to get out of the way, hit them head on. The impact stopped them from flying for a bit as they fell back to the city, trying to stay afloat. Just before they hit the ground, they managed to spread their wings out and take off into the air again, but by that time, Luke and Dameon were long gone.

Dameon managed to get past the town near the forest quite easily. All it took was to go there through the middle of the night, and he and Luke were through.
He followed the path that was there, past the river, where he made a makeshift metal bridge to get across. He got to another part where there was a rope bridge that lead to a ruined castle. He shrugged, thinking it could be worse. He reached back and pulled out Luke, who was still unconscious. He sighed and carried him over the bridge.
When he got inside, he set down Luke near the door and went to look around. His wanderings took him to what appeared to be a throne room. The whole room radiated with evil, as if something that was corrupted came in and tried to destroy everything. He looked through the room when he felt an evil presence behind him. He slowly turned around and saw a creature.
It's skin was a pure black and it had horns growing out of it's head. It had this weird headdress that looked like it was torn in many place. It's mouth was a thin line, but it had a humungous smile across it's face, showing two rows of razor sharp teeth. It's eyes were completely yellow and empty sockets. The rest of it's body was as smooth as shadows. It also had seven mouths, each on it's body. In one hand he was holding a candle, while in the other he was holding what appeared to be a miniature star.
"The master want's me to help." It sounded as if six people were speaking up at once, it also seemed that only one was speaking English while the others were speaking some language he couldn't understand.
Meanwhile Luke woke up to a blinding light. "Turn off the light damnit!" cried out Luke. When the light dimmed down enough Luke looked up and saw a pale man. White wings grew out of him around the shoulder blades. Luke also saw two sword handles attached to the man's back. He could see that the hilts appeared to be embroidered with rubies the hilts also looked like crosses.
"The master has sent me to help." It said. It's voice was smooth as silk.
"And who is this master? And who are you?" asked Luke.
"The master is the one you call Old Man and I'm Purification. Your friend is talking to my brother, Zalgo." (A/N Trying to think of a name for Purification. He'll keep that name for now. You can leave suggestions in the reviews.) He said his brother's name with obvious distaste.
"Okay then, why did he send an angel when this world has too much good?" asked Luke.
"Well, one reason is that Zalgo might go out of control. Another reason is that there might be a world that has too much evil that you'll need help with." said Purification.
"Wait, you say this as if you're coming along with us." said Luke.
"We are. We're going to give you some of our powers and we'll be with you the whole time as you learn you're powers."
"Really? Wow." muttered Luke, not seeing that Purification had raised both of his hands in front of him. Purification started to mutter and Luke looked at Purification just in time for a blinding light exploded out of Purification. "Not again!" cried Luke. After the light faded Luke looked around and saw nobody in front of him. "Hm, where did he go?" was all Luke managed to ask before passing out again.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000000000000000
"So you're here to help us?" asked Dameon.
"For the hundreth time yes!" exclaimed Zalgo, "At least if the master deems you to stay in this world since you failed already."
"Failed! How did we fail?" asked Dameon.
"The last guys the master got, they found the nearest villain, or hero if that world had to much bad, they then worked together with the villain or hero to get the place to it's average standards. If your lucky, the void might send you back here to finish the job." explained Zalgo.
Dameon sighed before saying, "Alright, what are these powers?"
"This." said Zalgo, raising his hands over Dameon's head. Zalgo started to mutter as the light in the area was pulled towards him.
"What.." was as far a Dameon got before a blast of pitch black energy warped out of Zalgo.
"That fucking hurt!" Dameon muttered before blacking out.

A Few Hours Later
Luke stood up groggily. He looked around him and saw that he was still in the castle. He went through the hallways to try and find Dameon, going to tell him about the 'angel' that visited him.
Meanwhile Dameon had the same idea, the result was them both crashing into each other due to their excitement. They both looked at each other before saying, "You won't believe what just happened to me!"
They both looked at each other, before laughter resounded through the area. They both stood up and looked over to where the laughter was coming from. Both Zalgo and Purification were there, both of them laughing.
"Who're you?" Both Dameon and Luke asked, both of them asking the opposite side.
Both the angel and the demon decided to introduce themselves to the ones they didn't go to, "I'm Purification." answered Purification to Dameon.
"I'm Zalgo." answered Zalgo to Luke.
"Now I suggest you practice with your new powers, we can feel a portal coming soon, about a day or so." said Purification.
"What are our new powers then?" asked Luke.
"Luke, you have control over my brother's domain. Basically you can use the light around you to do anything, ranging from teleporting, to invisibility, even going as far as shapeshifting into something you can remember clearly. You can even create weapons out of light. Your light weapons will be effective against any creature that uses darkness, or is inherently evil. Except me, of course. Also, your possessed by Purification." said Zalgo, adding the end casually.
"I'm possessed by an angel? Weird. I must be high." said Luke.
"No, you're not high, I would know if you were. Anyways, Dameon you can use shadows to you're advantage. Same as Luke, you can teleport as long as it's in a shaded place, go invisible while in the shadows, and can use the shadows around you to shapeshift your body. You can also make weapons out of the shadows that are good against any creature that is good. Your also possessed by Zalgo." said Purification.
"Wait, does that mean we can take on your forms? That'll be awesome! Luke can you imagine me turning into Zalgo?" said Dameon, excitement leaking into his voice.
"Yeah, but you get the cool looking one! I get to turn into and angel. At least I'll get to fly." said Luke, obviously in a sour mood.
While Zalgo started to laugh Purification said, with a hurt look on his face, "That hurts Luke, that really hurts. Anyways," Purification said, his voice all business. "Dameon you need to rest, you can use your powers the best at night," Both Luke and Dameon realized that it was day, "so Luke, you'll come with me to train your new powers."
A Long Training Session Later.
Both an exhausted Luke and tired Dameon lay on the floor trying to catch their breaths. After a few minutes of just resting, Dameon had gotten bored and decided to join Luke during his training. It was the first, and possibly the worst, training they took. But, it was slightly worth it. After Luke's training, he could feel when a ray of light was bouncing off an object, basically knowing what the object would look like, even when he wasn't looking at it. He could even use it to see traps, such as a pitfall trap because there was always light seeping into it.
After Dameon's training, which took longer than Luke's, he managed to take down two skills. He could create a basic illusion, an image of himself, and also could see if anything was hiding in darkness. Such as if a person was hiding in the shadows or around any dark corners, Dameon could see what it was, or who it was, he could even see through some traps. They didn't even notice the sound of tearing paper until they were sucked into the void.
They both decided to take a nap in the void, hoping it wouldn't drop them off too soon.
