open The Brigade Of Celestial Light

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Diadora: "So the prey was only testing itself, in attempts to become the predator. That's something I can respect. Call it a draw!" The announcer for the fight club called a draw. Much to the disappointment of everyone wanting to see a full fight. Diadora left the club to get her weapons and armour back from the host. It consisted of an almost full body suit made of pelts and hides. Some beast and some pony, bone decorations and a fur hood. Weapons look to be a simple bow and dagger at first glance. "Allow me to finally formally introduce myself. I am Diadora, a high level combat hunter for the Blood Moon clan and wife of our house leader. Pleased to meet you hive princess, Chrysteel, daughter of Venus."

...

 

Chrysteel says, "I don't think that is the full truth but I will handle myself. My full name is Chrysteel Amorè Chrysalis. I am from the hive of changelings who inhabit the bone wastes. My mother is Chrysalis. Venus is the mother we have long lost our connection too. It is an honor to make your Acquaintance. I must be going. My friends are not here and I need to locate them before the tournament. I also detected during our fight a presence I haven't felt sense the Crystal Empire. Have a pleasant day and happy hunting."

 

 

Chrysteel looks to Caras, "Wasn't Niruna with you a moment ago? Also someone you may wish to talk with just left the city. It felt Like Tempest's heart but there were three other presences that helped block him from me."

My mother is Chrysalis. Venus is the mother we have long lost our connection too. It is an honor to make your Acquaintance. I must be going.

Chrysteel looks to Caras, "Wasn't Niruna with you a moment ago? Also someone you may wish to talk with just left the city. It felt Like Tempest's heart but there were three other presences that helped block him from me."

Diadora: "Well. I have a feeling we will be running into each other again on the future. The instincts of a huntress never lie to her. See you around."

 

Caras: "Yes. I'm aware Tempest was observing us and Niruna was talking with him. I was just ignoring him. I don't want him on my mind right now. He's such a nuisance. Honestly though, him and I are very alike in more ways than one. I do wish he would see the truth in this world and understand why I do what I do. We could have been good friends if he was able to understand. It's such a shame to see such an amazing life be wasted fighting for a cause that uses stereotyping and the past as their only sources of motivation. That's what annoys me the most. What could have been, compared to what is."

 

When Caras finishes talking, the areas light all gathered around a central platform. "That's my signal. Have to go." He puffed into smoke, vanishing from sight and reappears om stage. "Hello the beautiful city of Hell Above! Settle down, quiet down. And prepare for the ultimate entertainment this side of the Underworld?"

 

Crowd: "Yeah! *applauds*"

 

Caras: "Formalities are formalities and we must keep it true." Was a clap of his hooves, a large magical projection appeared behind him, on the screen was Lord Zecz on the left, and 16 members of the House of storms on the right. "Let's interview out combatants."

 

 

 

 

"back there behind the stadium" he grabbed her hoof and started running behind it.... "here we are..........come on..... focus on me now" simple proceeded to start using his magic.... and then clapped his hoof..... he disappeared for about a second and then reappeared on a medium size black dragon "hey niruna look up!" he proceeded to do two backflips then proceeded to tell the dragon to leave he jump off in middle air and then turned himself into a dragon and picked up niruna "come on niruna we're going for a ride!"

(Ignoring the part about summoning)

 

Niruna: "Maybe later. But that is soo, cool. Come on. Change back to normal already. The tournament is starting. We don't want to miss anything. Even the interviews are cool."

Diadora: "Well. I have a feeling we will be running into each other again on the future. The instincts of a huntress never lie to her. See you around."

"silly billy we can watch from above!" simple flew up into the air............"so are you coming or are we watching from the ground your choice" simple smiled and giggled a little..... life was looking up for simple and he knew and was loving every second of it....."well.... what are we doing don't wanna be late"

[Child Of Darkness 285]

"silly billy we can watch from above!" simple flew up into the air............"so are you coming or are we watching from the ground your choice" simple smiled and giggled a little..... life was looking up for simple and he knew and was loving every second of it....."well.... what are we doing don't wanna be late"

Niruna: "It's the experience of being part of the crowd that makes this a more exciting event. Get down, someone might shoot you. No one knows you can transform. And come on or you're gonna be late for it. You won't want to miss it." Niruna ran into the crowd and managed to worm her way to a small point above the rest of the crowd on top of a stall. She eagerly awaited what was to come very soon.

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel flies over to them. "Are you two forgetting somepony? My match with diadora was a draw. We both were using the same tactics. Besides I think I made a new friend out of the whole thing. Now how about the three of us get to the arena before its over."

 

Chrysteel waits for the two and then follows Niruna.

[Donald Gamer 84]

Niruna: "It's the experience of being part of the crowd that makes this a more exciting event. Get down, someone might shoot you. No one knows you can transform. And come on or you're gonna be late for it. You won't want to miss it." Niruna ran into the crowd and managed to worm her way to a small point above the rest of the crowd on top of a stall. She eagerly awaited what was to come very soon.

fine i'll fly you there" he quickly picks up niruna and flys to the entrance making sure not to be seen "here we are lets go" simple transformed back and found where caras was seating "here we sorry we're late caras" simple sat down and smiled at niruna (this is my home now i belong here)

[Child Of Darkness 285]

Caras: "Our first combatant is a man who has proven time and time again that strength is not all about how strong your magic is, or how much your body can withstand. Please welcome with wizard with words. Lord Zecz!" *crowd applauds*

 

Zecz: "Hello from the Underworld Hell Above. It's a pleasure to see all of your lovely faces out in that crowd today."

 

Caras: "So tell us Zecz, how easily can you get the Storms to throw down their lives for you?"

 

Zecz: "The Storms don't even rank among the top ten houses of power. They stand no chance against The Rank 2. I'll let them show off their power, and once they fail, it will be all the easier to curse and control them."

 

Caras: "Such a simple plan. But as effective as ever. I'm sure the city is looking forward to see what the storms have to say. Those idiots are always saying they deserve respect and that they have the power to prove it. If their 16 strongest cannot take out a Lord. What hope do they have?"

 

Zecz: "They have non. Anyway, I must prepare. Being this amazing takes preparation you know. It's not easy being me." The connection to Zecz was cut.

 

Caras: "Next up. The challenger. A house know for being all bark and no bite. But can always be useful for bringing a small shock to events. Demons of Hell Above, let me present to you. The House of Storms." *Crowd boos*

 

Storm: "Quiet you worthless Demons. And what is with all these lies you idiotic Lord? Next time we meet, I will personally put you in your place."

 

Caras: "Yeah. Asserting my place as the Number 3."

 

Storm: "Quiet! We will easily defeat this scum bag Zecz and show you that we are worthy of power. This is all we need to say." The signal was lost to both of them.

 

Caras: "Well, that was eventful."

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel laughs, "I dought they stand a chance. Their hearts are not fully into whay they say."

 

Chrysteel looks to Niruna and says, "50 bits says house storms looses in the first 15 minutes. I still wouldn't put it past them though."

 

Chrysteel stays by Niruna and Simple. She watches with a budding excitement growing within.

Chrysteel laughs, "I dought they stand a chance. Their hearts are not fully into whay they say."

 

Chrysteel looks to Niruna and says, "50 bits says house storms looses in the first 15 minutes. I still wouldn't put it past them though."

 

Chrysteel stays by Niruna and Simple. She watches with a budding excitement growing within.

Niruna: "100 bits says Zecz plays with them for about 30 minutes. An extra 50 bits on that he makes the Leader commit suicide. You can't beat me on this. I know how he fights. He will get hurt, he doesn't have much defence. Possibly an electrical burn. His regeneration is incredibly strong, he will be able to heal their strongest attack in seconds. He will kill them with words. I can promise that."

 

 

Caras: "And now for the main event people. Our two teams have been teleported to the arena. For those who are new to the Tournaments. Let me explain what the arenas are. They are pockets of land that have been trapped in Space-time by advance magic that has been lost to time. We can't create them anymore, but we can access them. They where created for the sole purpose of fighting. When a combatant 'dies' in one of the arenas, they are teleported to the safe room for medical care. No one has died in the arena for 100 years. Maybe that will change today. On the screen to my right we have the ladies favourite, the charismatic Lord of sweet words. Lord Zecz. And to my left, the house of storms. Let's ignore them. Let, the battle, commence."

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel says, "Alright no bet. But still he going to clean their clocks."

 

Chrysteel listens when Caras start speaking. She smiles and waits to see how this will turn out. Her wings are slightly fluttering against her sides in excitement. She can't wait for it to start.

[Drago Ryder 641]

After talking with Clayton, Dawn figured that she might as well find Golden. "I took care of Clayton, so now the only thing we have to worry about is finding Tempest." She said, looking into the air, hoping that she would see him flying by.

 

Tempest sighed as he closed his eyes and began to meditate. There was a lot on his mind and he knew that he had to take care of it before he could do anything else. The main issue was obviously the divine and demons. He knew the history of both, along with that of the Equestrian empire, but he still felt conflicted. "Innocents are on both sides of all of this, despite what they think." He thought to himself. The bat pony then sighed as he drifted through his subconscious.

[Child Of Darkness 285]

After talking with Clayton, Dawn figured that she might as well find Golden. "I took care of Clayton, so now the only thing we have to worry about is finding Tempest." She said, looking into the air, hoping that she would see him flying by.

Golden: "Yeah. Something inside me doubts we will see him again today. He may turn up in the middle of the night, but I don't think we will see him for at least a few hours. So, anything you wanna do to kill time?"

 

 

 

 

 

 

With Caras' words, the house of Storms mobilised across the battlefield. Killing intent in their eyes and 'power' coursing through them. Zecz stood where he was, posing for the Cameras and just enjoying himself.

 

Zecz: "This battle is for all you lovely mares at home. Tuning in to watch me do my stuff and basically be myself. You must all really love me. And I love all of you just as much as you love me. It's a shame you won't be able to hear my lovely voice when I start to curse them. But of course, I would cry if any of you were hurt by my words. How devastating for me that would be. Anyway, I must be going now. Those weak fools are coming. Please watch how I work my magic." *air kiss*

 

Caras: "What a narcissistic bastard. But we all love him. Such an irresistible Devil. Let's continue to watch and see how this develops."

[Drago Ryder 641]

Dawn shrugged slightly. "To be honest, nothing really comes to mind." She said. " What about you?" The alicorn then glanced at Golden and figured that anything would be better then waiting around for night to come. She just hoped that Tempest would indeed return soon. He was one of the strongest ponies that she knew of, and that was among his many friends that she had met.

[Child Of Darkness 285]

"Usually if I'm bored in Heaven I'll train. Practice my abilities, or have a drink have my friends. Non of them I can really do, this place doesn't have the facilties I use. I guess I'll just go out on patrol. See if can't hunt down a devil or two to kill. The more of them dead the better. Wanna come with? Or stay with the mortals?"

[Drago Ryder 641]

Dawn nodded slightly and smirked. "I might as well go with you." She said. The alicorn figured that nothing would happen while she was gone and her wounds were almost healed. "I could definitely use a bit of practice with both Baz and my magic."

 

Said aura beast growled in agreement and knew that this would most likely help both her and her friend.

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel says, "I guess he deserves the right to be that way. Even I know a voice can be dangerous when the right words are spoken. You can cause any reaction in a target with just the right trigger."

 

Chrysteel's wings are fluttering constantly at this time. She doesn't seem to be aware of it and would be unaware of it causing somedevil or somepony to be made upset. She is currently just watching as the fight unfolds.

Dawn nodded slightly and smirked. "I might as well go with you." She said. The alicorn figured that nothing would happen while she was gone and her wounds were almost healed. "I could definitely use a bit of practice with both Baz and my magic."

 

Said aura beast growled in agreement and knew that this would most likely help both her and her friend.

"Okay. I say we do a 2 mile radius north, 1.5 north west and north east. We should run into some of the Hunter Clan. They tend to move quite far our to find new prey to hunt." Golden materialised her bow and a quiver of arrows. "Come on. Let's hunt hunters."

 

 

 

 

Chrysteel says, "I guess he deserves the right to be that way. Even I know a voice can be dangerous when the right words are spoken. You can cause any reaction in a target with just the right trigger."

 

Chrysteel's wings are fluttering constantly at this time. She doesn't seem to be aware of it and would be unaware of it causing somedevil or somepony to be made upset. She is currently just watching as the fight unfolds.

 

Niruna: "Hey Onee-Chan. Watch your wings. They're going crazy. You're going to annoy someone if you keep up like that."

 

 

5 minutes into the fight, Zecz and the house of storms met in a large open area of the arena. Zecz continue to do his frivolity while the storms prepared their magic.

 

Storm: "So, this is the intimidating Underworld number 2? Ha. You don't even have any power. Your aura is so weak that it's funny. I wouldn't be surprised if this killed you right now." Storm fired a bolt of lightning at Zecz who simple side stepped it effortlessly.

 

Zecz: "You gonna have to do better than that to hit me. Come on boys, try and hit me."

 

Strom: "Kill him! Hurt him so bad that even the medical staff won't be able to save him." A barrage of attacks from the House of Storms was launched at Zecz who was just having some fun dodging left and right. No effort was required, this was all just fun.

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel's wings stop fluttering right as she looks. She says, "Oh...You mean the fluttering. My wings have a mind of their own at times. When I get excited it happens. I can't stop it and if somepony finds this natural part of me annoying, I will tell them the same. Sorry, but can't control it."

 

Chrysteel goes back to watching the fighting. Her wing flutter again, but not allot.

[Child Of Darkness 285]

Zecz continued to play around for an additional 10 minutes before he eventually took a hit, causing him to stagger and be chained into several more attacks. It did cause some burning due to his unnaturally low defence.

 

Storm: "Ha! Finally got you. That's what you get for gallivanting... wait what?"

 

Zecz stood motionless as the wounds inflicted upon him began to vanish. Smiling at the cameras. "You may want to mute the screen right now. I'm about to start my curse."

 

Caras: "Understood. Have fun Zecz."

 

All audio transmissions from the arena was cut. All that could be seen was Zecz mouth moving.

 

Caras: "This is the part we have been waiting for. Unfortunately, like Zecz said during the interview, we can't allow you to hear his voice during this time. Don't won't you getting hurt now. Your minds can't handle his words. So let us watch and see what he gets Storm to do. What creative thing will Zecz make them do first?"

 

Niruna: "Hey Onee-Chan, Onii-Chan. What do you wanna see Zecz do? I hear that sometimes he takes public requests to add a bit of involvement from the people. Have something on your mind incase he asks."

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel chuckles, "Death by their worst fear or nightmare. The look on their face would be priceless."

 

Chrysteel smiles. She looks to actually be enjoying herself. However a dark aura has also began to cover her. She looks to be fighting it but fear will be fear.

Chrysteel chuckles, "Death by their worst fear or nightmare. The look on their face would be priceless."

 

Chrysteel smiles. She looks to actually be enjoying herself. However a dark aura has also began to cover her. She looks to be fighting it but fear will be fear.

Zecz did a single gesture on screen and the audio returned.

 

Zecz: "What was that I heard from the crowd? Did one of the mares make a request? Oh, how can I deny that. Death by their worst fear, how will I do that? Their worst fear is losing so all I need to do is make them lose. So tell me beautiful people, how should I kill him? Makes his followers turn on him? Make him kill himself? Make him simple surrender? Or should I make him leave the arena and fall forever into the void? Where he shall fall until he dies of starvation? Give me the methods to bring out his worst fear."

[Donald Gamer 84]

Niruna: "100 bits says Zecz plays with them for about 30 minutes. An extra 50 bits on that he makes the Leader commit suicide. You can't beat me on this. I know how he fights. He will get hurt, he doesn't have much defence. Possibly an electrical burn. His regeneration is incredibly strong, he will be able to heal their strongest attack in seconds.

Let, the battle, commence."

"okay..... i bet.....zeuz will kill them in the first 30 seconds" simple smiled and look at niruna......he then proceeded to get a message from his father again 

 

Daydreaming

 

"father?.... is that you again what do you want" "that letter son...... its both correct and wrong... you will get a lot of those letter.......50% will be true 50% will be lies......you will need to find a way to get only the true info i'll help you with the first one..... theres one person you do not need to kill on that list..... " he pointed at the N.... "I see..... but why not him" "he must be killed by someone you know..... Nir....." 

 

Not Daydreaming....

 

 

simple looked at niruna... he knew that niruna was the one his father was talking about...... but niruna has never been one for war.... he knew that......how possibly could he get her to kill Naga......

[Drago Ryder 641]

Dawn nodded slightly as she exited the base. She had some experience with cryokinesis and she wanted to expand on that a bit more, along with improving the abilities given to her by Baz.

 

While in his mind, Tempest came upon a locked door and made sure that nothing was amiss. "Everypony has demons to hide, even if they don't want to admit it." He thought to himself, as he came back to reality. The sun was beginning to set, but he didn't really care. The bat pony then laid under a nearby tree and fell asleep.

 

(If you're talking about Naga, he's technically already dead.)

Edited May 30, 2015 by Drago Ryder

[Child Of Darkness 285]

Niruna: "Suicide Zecz! Make him kill himself!"

 

Zecz: "The fair Royal Lady Lucifer has spoken. Their fate has been decided. Death by suicide. As brutal as possible. Please close audio communication. This will get nasty."

 

The audio link was again lost, and Zecz could be seen talking on screen. After nearly a minute, the leader of the house of Storms placed his hooves to his own head, and fired bolts of electricity into his skull, frying his brain and burning his skin and fur to ash.

 

Caras: "The leader for the house of storms has been killed. Their is no recovery from a wound that deadly. He is 100% dead. The first death in 100 years, well done Lord Zecz. You broke the system.

 

Zecz: "I try. Sorry this may not be as entertaining as seeing the power houses battle. But simple words are what I do best. And honestly, who doesn't enjoy the fact that the house of storms will become extinct very soon due to infighting. And you all relish in any opportunity to see my face and hear my voice. Well, I must be off. Now, I'll be on Hell Above tomorrow. Bring yourself, as this is a public appearance. You all get to spend time with yours truly. See you tomorrow. And after that I will be touring in the underworld, so all my fans down under need not feel deprived of me for very long. Goodbye for now my lovely fans."

 

Zecz disappeared in a flash.

 

Caras: "Less of a tournament and more another afternoon with Zecz. Sounds like a good show. Don't tell him I said that, it'll go to his head. Well that is all we have for today a short battle with a decisive end. Thank you all for coming out to watch this event with me, enjoy the rest of your day."

 

 

 

 

 

 

Diadora and a team of her Hunters left the city just before the events actually started to go hunting in the forests south of th crystal empire. They heard they have good prey. Mortal soldiers, and a hint that a Divine might be with them. Too irresistible of a hunt to turn down. "Alright, we the 5 of us are hunting mortals. But keep an eye open for that Divine. First one to kill it and bring me it's head will get a personal bonus from myself. Let's hunt people."

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel chuckles, "Wow a fear of loosing. Now that is an odd one."

 

The dark aura vanishes when the battle ended. She looks exhausted, like she had been having a very dangerous battle within.

 

"It is always hard to contain one's darkest emotions. That battle almost made me loose control." Chrysteel looks to the others. "So what's next?"
