12th Atrocity - Friendship Is F@#$ing Magic

[To the members of 836 Hastings Boulevard]
((OOC permission granted by Rarity-mun))

[When you get home from work and classes on Monday, you may notice something is different about your back yard.

It might be that it now looks like someone redecorated it with unicorn blood and fur.

Most of the flesh and bones are missing.

Whoever did this enjoyed their work, far too much

They even did some finger painting of the happy family with the blood.]


[Front porch of 502 Ricardo Street]

[A blood soaked, wrapped package has been left for you. It has a note, "To Pokey", on it.]
Dear Pokey, I leave this gift of hamburger meat to show there are no hard feelings.
PS. Can your living robot come out to play again?
-Black Mage

[Front porch of 726 Anderson Lane]

[A blood soaked, wrapped package has also been left here. It has a note for, "Bat boy and Sword Woman".]
Dear murderous sociopaths, I leave this gift of Unicor hamburger meat to show there are no hard feelings. Keep up the good work.
-Black Mage


[Action | Around town]

[Black Mage is walking around town in his new green bed sheets and a bloody horn sticking out of his paper bag.

That horn might look familiar.

He is muttering and chanting, waving his hands in the air, and getting frustrated.]

Why won't this work! I think I got the words right.

You'd think a unicorn horn would be perfect for dealing with dimensional magic!

[It takes a lot of effort for Rainbow Dash to hold back, but she is getting angrier by the second.]

Answer the question! Why do you have Rarity's horn?!

[inthenertz.livejournal.com]

Ooooooohhhh.....

Was she a friend of yours?

Look, there's a good explanation for how this happened, do you want to hear it?

[foalingaround.livejournal.com]

[There isn't a good explanation, really. Whoever this guy was, he was wearing Rarity's horn and Rarity was probably dead by now and Rainbow Dash couldn't even protect her.]

No. No I don't really want to hear it.

[And she swings around, aiming one of her back hooves right for Black Mage's chest.]

[inthenertz.livejournal.com]

[Oh, the Pegasus was a smart one. It was just a set up for BM to do something terrible.

Instead, he gets a surprise kick to the chest and goes tumbling like the frail man he is.]

~Cough~ Wait!... wait... I'll... tell you... where she is... you may... still be able... to save her.

If you spare me...

[foalingaround.livejournal.com]

[Sorry Black Mage, but Rainbow Dash is way too enraged to listen to what he has to say. The sound she makes next sounds something similiar to a very angry bull, and she starts attacking in a blind rage.]

[inthenertz.livejournal.com]

[Well, there went plan B.

Plan C is to get the tar beat out of him and hope that shock or internal bleeding kills him before the pain gets overwhelming.]

[foalingaround.livejournal.com]

[And without anyone to restrain her before this fight gets too out of hand, Dash seems perfectly content with beating the tar out of Black Mage, using her hooves to kick at or stomp on Black Mage with as much force as she can put into it.]

[inthenertz.livejournal.com]

[Man does that hurt.

But, all good deeds can't go without some trouble. Gurgling out, and extending his non smashed hand...]

B...olt... 2!

[Lightning lancing from his finger tips, dark lord of the Sith style.]

[foalingaround.livejournal.com]

[WELP

Right as Rainbow Dash goes to smash down on his other hand, she briefly sees the lightning crackling from his fingers. Before she has a chance to react to it, she can feel the pain of being electrocuted by BM's magic. She lets out a scream of pain before collapsing to the ground.]

[inthenertz.livejournal.com]

[No one ever said BM ever went too easy on people...

Glaring at the source of all his pain for today.]

Eye... beams!

[Heat lasers shooting from his eyes at his intended victim.]

[downtoearthpony.livejournal.com]

[And just as Black Mage almost finishes that sentence, here's Applejack pivoting on her front legs to give a double-legged kick just under his chin to send him up and away from Rainbow Dash. Guess the crackle of electricity (and screaming) was a good cover for a galloping pony.]

You leave mah friends alone!!

[foalingaround.livejournal.com]

[It's surprising enough that Rainbow Dash hasn't passed out yet, even more of a surprise that she's still struggling to stand with little success. Everything hurt like nothing she's ever experienced before. Still, she's relieved to see Applejack showing up, even if this was a dangerous situation.]

A-Applejack, look out!

[inthenertz.livejournal.com]

[Oh dark and nameless gods! Why do people keep kicking him?

BM doesn't even get a say in this as he goes airborn. Crashing into bushes in someone's yard.]

We need... a glue factory... around here...

[downtoearthpony.livejournal.com]

[Applejack is on guard, keeping herself between the bushes Black Mage landed in and Rainbow Dash. She came upon them just as Black Mage zapped Dash, so she's ready to move the minute she sees him spark again, though being ready and being faster than lightning are two different things she should be worried about. Much as she wants to turn to check on her friend, she doesn't take her eyes off those bushes.]

Ah'll be careful, Dash. You okay though? Think you can fill me in about what the hay this is all about?

[foalingaround.livejournal.com]

[Rainbow Dash staggers upright, leaning against a nearby tree for support.]

It's...it's Rarity, he did something to Rarity. He's got her horn.

[If Rarity wasn't dead, she was severely hurt somewhere. Rainbow Dash has a hard time believing Rarity survived though.]

[inthenertz.livejournal.com]

[Being BM is suffering.

The world is pain.

Time to hurt people.

He comes limping out of the bushes. Very battered and broken under his robes.]

That's... it!

Time... to beat... a dead horse.

[downtoearthpony.livejournal.com]

[Applejack paws at the ground as she replies to Dash through gritted teeth.]

Then Ah guess we better get it back, whether he lets us or not.

[With a snort, Applejack takes off full tilt at Black Mage as he comes crawling out of the bushes, fully intending to trample him.]

[foalingaround.livejournal.com]

Oh, he's gonna give it back all right.

[Even though she was in a lot of pain, she still has enough fight in her to get back up. She wouldn't go down without a fight at least. With a flap of her wings, she shakily lifts herself off the ground and flies right at Black Mage, going for a headbutt.]

[inthenertz.livejournal.com]

[BM still has plenty of spell power left.

Sadly, he's injured and a terrible shot.]

Time to bring the pain.

BOLT 3!

BOLT 3!

BOLT 3!

[Lightning crashes from the sky. Bolts large enough to blow craters into the ground, destroy cars and send debris flying.

Sadly, they are all off target and easy to dodge at the moment by the two fast moving ponies.]

[downtoearthpony.livejournal.com]

[Applejack is completely focus on her target now, so she doesn't even notice where those bolts are landing, or even the bits of debris that bounce off of her as she moves at full gallop straight into Black Mage. She has her head down to catch him in the gut and once contact is made, she gives a flick upward to send him up into the air as she runs underneath him.]

[foalingaround.livejournal.com]

[Rainbow Dash, likewise, is dodging the bolts and picking up speed. Right as Applejack knocks him up in the air, Rainbow Dash follows up with a headbutt of her own - slamming full force into Black Mage.]

[inthenertz.livejournal.com]

[Oh, well, this didn't go well at all.

The blow from Applejack is excruciating. It couldn't possibly get worse.

Oh wait, there's Rainbow Dash.

The headbutt slams into his frail, mage body and shatters more bones. He hits the ground hard, laying there, quickly losing conciousness to internal bleeding.]

[downtoearthpony.livejournal.com]

[Applejack turns around in her gallop, kicking up dirt, intending to make another pass if Black Mage is still up, but starts to slow down once she sees he's not moving anymore.

She approaches cautiously in case this is a trick and when it looks like he's not about to get up, she looks around for Dash.]

Ah think he's down for the count! You okay, Dash?

[foalingaround.livejournal.com]

[Rainbow Dash slumps forward a bit, the adrenaline wearing off and the exhaustion setting in.]

Y-yeah, I'm fine.
