"Oooh, I wonder what I got?" Flash said as Curious as a colt. "Hmm, let's try this!" He said thrusting his hoof into the sky, to have it shoot a bolt of lightning.

 

"Ohmygosh ohmygosh ohmygosh! I can shoot lightning! This is so cool!" He then started hovering a few inches off the ground and flew a few excited circles around the assembled group.

Discord, after fixing his arm back, looked at the casting Spike made and started clapping slowly.

 

Marvelous. We got a bunch of power rangers now who don't know how to properly use their power yet. I'm sure they will do fine against Twilight and her minions who practice destruction every day. We need to get to that "Forge" of yours. I'm sure Sombra would cooperate. I'm sure he is a bit oppressed by Twilight as well. Unless he is one of her servants himself of course...

Feeder looked around after the runic's disappeared. Then sighed and went to pick up his bag. As he was reaching for it, a branch bent down and lifted it up to its height. He said as he went underneath it and the bag fell on his back, 
"I guess I can control nature. It will be useful for medicine."

"Ahh Discord, you're just as much a sarcastic git as I remember you." Nice to see someone who prides themself on being an elemental, of chaos none the less, doesn't actually follow chaos and change over time. Nice reference. "Hey, assuming I'm the Element of Magic, and I'm a highly skilled unicorn, does it not just boost my natural magical abilities? Because if so, I already know how to use my power. If it's something else, please elaborate."

Hello to you too little pony. Well, that's a silly affirmation. I have a very carefully crafted chaotic behaviour. Basically, you are saying that "You are still random and still is a chaos elemental. So you don't follow chaos and change?" There are things that I can't change for the sake of remaining the chaos lord that I am, like being chaotic for example. But I did change my appearence. See? My left leg swapped with right one!.

[Novaburst 15]

Spike looked at the Element of Magic,  and said to her.    "The spell I did will act as a Temporary boost to your magical capabilities,  and also allow you a wider range of spells.  "  With that he turned towards the other pony and said. "There is a way we can get King Sombra to work for us,  and lead us to the Forge of Harmony given that I rule the Crystal Empire as well.  When Cadence was murdered,  Shining Armor committed suicide and Flurryheart died of Heartbreak.  When she was dying she passed her magical abilities to me which allowed me to become the Emperor of the Dragons, and the Emperor of the Crystal Empire.  I don't know how to locate Generosity."   As Steel sent dark magic to power him up Spike regained his strength and pushed himself up onto both of his legs.  As he did,  his clothes would change to clothes better fit for an adventure. 

 

Spike then held out his hand,  and his sword lit in a purple and green aura flying over to his hand. Strapping it back onto his back,  he said to Discord and the others. 

 

"If we are all in agreement,  I will summon King Sombra.  But such a spell will cause me to pass out and be vulnerable. Discord,  I will be counting on you and the Elements of Harmony to keep me safe because once I pass out I will be at Sombra's mercy if you don't protect me." 

 

Spike then moved one foot,  and rose up one arm. A stone rose out of the ground and he stabbed his sword into it.  Once he did,  the sword rotated so the blade portion was sticking out of the stone and charging up magical energy. 

 

"Are you ready for this ritual Discord?" 

 

As Spike said this he pulled out an ancient book that no pony would recognize that was written in a dead language that Spike had learned during his travels.

"Lackin' true skill in combat?

"I don't think I'll be much help, I can't fight or hurt anyone or anything, I'm a doctor and a vet, not a warrior. So I'm going to sit this one out."

"Can we just get on with summonin' King Sombra before ah shoot Steel in th' face or somethin'? Ah don't think we got time to waste, and now y'all got two experienced fighters with elemental powers to protect ya, so ah don't really think we gotta worry too much."

[Novaburst 15]

Spike nodded. "Very well." 

 

With that he looked through the ancient tome. 

 

"Harmony. Chaos. Light,  and Darkness. Forces that must be balanced are now overwhelmed or simply extinguished.  To restore balance,  I call upon the power of the Darkness in order to awaken the Lord of Darkness,  King Sombra. As in ancient times,  I call upon him to grant one request.. and will pay the price personally no matter what it is. "   With that Spike's eyes would glow as a black and red menacing door way would appear near them,  and out of it would step King Sombra. 

 

King Sombra then looked over at the gathered ponies,  and Discord. 

 

"So I have been summoned. I assume this is not for casual conversation. Name your request that I've been called for. I was enjoying resting, and not working." 

 

King Sombra examined their necks, and scowled.  

 

King Sombra then said. "So Spike has followed the ancient rules to summon me? When he awakes, tell him that the Crystal Empire is the Price. But you're not ready yet. You need to pass the Trials of Harmony before I could even lead you to the Forge of Harmony.  As it is now,  due to lacking Generosity you would fail the Trials by virtue of missing one Elemental Representative. And even if you did, I wouldn't. For I don't have a death wish. The Elements of Harmony are the one weapon other than the Rainbow of Light that could destroy me,  but that power has been lost since long before Celestia's Reign. Still. Choose your leader and name your request officially. "

From the shadows of the castle, a bat pony that looked like he had been through Tartarus and back, who was wearing an amulet that looked older than him, and a dragoness slightly larger than the pony next to her walked towards those that were already assembled. "Sorry for being late. Traffic was a pain." He said, before giving a slight salute. "As for my name. I'm Blitz Ryu, former commander of Luna's royal guard due to disbandment and one of the few ponies able to manipulate aura. I would rather leave the extent of the latter a surprise." He said, his tone nonchalant. His mood then turned serious as he looked over those assembled. "I already know what's going on, and while I cant really explain it, I think I was brought here for a reason, aside from just escorting her." Blitz then motioned towards the dragoness next to him.

 

The dragoness simply rolled her eyes. The two of them had been off the grid for years and she wasn't exactly used to interacting with others. "My name is Gale, and i was summoned by the dragon lord, but you could probably figure that one out." She said.

"Y'see, we're kinda in th' middle of negotiatin' with King Sombra so that he'll give us th' location of somethin' that'll let us recreate th' Elements of Harmony. His terms are that we give him th' Crystal Empire and complete some kinda trials, which we can do now assumin' yer th' element of generosity. By th' way, King Sombra, what exactly are these trials?"

Demon blood stepped out form behind sombra with a wicked smile "ohh I new kingdom full of ponies would be lovely" he said "plus I'd love to see this lovely bunch of ponies go and fail maybe even die" he said locking eyes with steel

 

Steel had been turned to the dragon and bat pony but as soon as he heard a voice form the last he turned staring daggers his sword raised hand his armor forming on his body

Blitz gave a slight shrug and looked both Sombra and Discord. "I figured it's about time for someone to take down Twilight. As for being the element of generosity, I could see that being a thing." He said. The bat pony then glanced at Demon and couldn't help but laugh. "Yeah, you shouldn't try to be scary. It doesn't really suit you."

[4HFan 476]

All of a sudden, Flash's mood dampened and he was serious. "King Sombra, a name I hoped never to say again. You may not know me, but I know you. You destroyed the life of one of my closest friends and for that I'll never forgive you. But if you're telling the truth about these 'trials of harmony', you have done Equestria a great service. But don't expect me to be the one returning the favor." He then turned around, "If we ever meet again under different circumstances, you can expect a very different reaction." Then all of a sudden he was his normal self again.

Zaraki walked along the halls of the castle getting ready to meet spike, discord and the new users of the elements of harmony. Zaraki pushed the doors to the meeting hall "SPIKE, DISCORD, I'm here! Sorry I'm late," zaraki looked around at the ponies "oh sorry. Umm hi I'm zaraki. I'm a member of a dragon only squadron"

[Novaburst 15]

Sombra then looked over at the Elements,  and the Dragons. "What I said specifically was I would NOT allow you to find the Forge of Harmony,  because I wouldn't lead you there.  Given the Elements are one of TWO weapons that could wipe me out,  I'm not going to allow them to be remade.  The Crystal Empire is the price Spike will pay for merely summoning me.  Nothing you ponies say could convince me to assist you or provide you with the power you need to unlock the Forge of Harmony.  Besides,  the Forge wouldn't work as a Harmonic individual cannot use it anyway.  Someone of Darkness would have to smith the Elements of Harmony anew and again,  I won't help you."  

 

Meanwhile,  Spike began to awaken as one of the members of his squad arrived. Groggily he started to stretch out,  and wake himself up.  Spike sighed as he looked over at them. "Gale.  Zaraki,  you're part of my Draconic Squadron. "   Spike sighed as he looked over at them both. "We'll be the backup plan if the Elements of Harmony, and Discord fail to stop Princess Twilight.  We'll need to figure out an alternative to the Elements."

"Well that's an easy fix! We just have to bring Damien back to his senses. Then he can force Johnny to forge the elements for us! I just hope we can get to him in time. Last I saw him, he was a total wreck. Couldn't sleep, constant mental attacks from Johnny, he's got it pretty hard... But I'm sure there's some of the old Damien left in there. All we should have to do is get him away from Twilight and capture him. Easy peasy lemon squeezey!"
