Plague liked the idea of an Alliance, the strongest of the strong uniting together to face a common enemy. “Consider me in your alliance Cydonia. I’ll make sure Celestria has nothing left to rule... and to show mother the pain that I have endured. She deserves to Die.” He said coldly. Plague then looked at Dark. “As students of my mother, you and I should confront Celestria together once these restrainers are off and the time has come. It seems we have much in common... or should i say Zahel von kasar ye kut.” He continued “And nopony forgot about you...” Plague went up to Savior’s cell and quickly unlocked it. “Now.... shall we get to business?”
"of course, an alliance should suit us well. Though we can't just rely on joint personal power to topple the greatest of foes. We need knowledge larger than Celestia's to overcome enemies". He then turned to plague. "aki sawa, lionheart Helios demin".
Savior carefully leaves his cell so as not to bump into anything (or anypony). For the moment, it looked like he was going to have to rely on three senses over five. He turns toward where he presumes the rest of the ponies are standing and throws a hoof over his chest in salute. Then he waits for a decision. Again.
Cydonia watches the newcomer. She scans the largely white pony and clearly perplexed by the blind fold and gag. Her horn glows, untying and lifting both off his head. "Somepony give the vixen the keys. It'll run faster than any of us. Unlock the other cages and let them beat their way through Celestia's forces en masse. We can follow on behind." She said to the others before returning to the Unicorn. "Now, are you going to be useful to us?" The hoofsteps of the guards where getting closer, the laughter travelling even further.
Faux retreated back into the room as the laughter grew louder. She hurried behind the others more against the back wall and leaned back against the wall. The laughter of the guards became louder and she could hear them talking. Fuax counted maybe 4 guards each one covered in the all gold armor and their helmets clanking against it. "There's 4 of them" she whispered to the others.
"good if we take them out. The non alicorns can put their armour on and possibly sneak passed". He readied his wings getting them hardened, pointier and strong enough to penetrate their armour.
Savior rubs his forehead and chuckles. "Ah, nice to have that thing off. To answer your question, of course. By my definition of use, I can produce much of it." He points down the hall at the others who have left. "I can't help but notice we have not established a leader of our little group of misfits. I also cannot avert my eyes from your glorious body, Cydonia. I'm sure the great Cydonia would be willing to take the forward." He flicks his tail and moves past her to follow the others. "After all, I've heard all about your achievements. Such skill then, why not prove your power early and get it over with?"
"Oh, you..." Cydonia giggles as she coyly looks at her. "Now, how about you make yourself useful and unlock cell doors." She said as he stands behind Dark and Plague as the guards moves into view. "Are you really that sure you can take them? Even without your powers?"
"I had to have a backup defense plan incase i was put in a situation like this. I learn't and mastered about 3 different martial arts. More than enough to take out Royal Guards, their training routine hasn't changed much over the couple century's." Plague said as he got himself in his stance. The guards kept talking as they opened the door. While everypony in the rooms were hiding, Plague punched a guard with frightening velocity and force and began to almost literally wipe the floor with them. Plague then threw their body's directly in the center of the room. "That was elementary. It turn's out the guards are now worse then what they were eight hundred years ago." Plague then smiled at Cydonia,Dark and his new found Friends. "Onto phase two shall we?"
"Let's do this and speaking of leadership. You need to have a democracy. A sole leader with no say from who they lead. Loses the will and agreement of their people". Dark let out a small smile. If he was going to keep up this charade, he needed to make it convincing. Though once they succeed it will be him to redeem himself as the reuniter of harmony.
"Celestia stated a democracy once, and all that did was start a civil war. I prefer an autocracy for Equestria once mother is dead, im a bit old fashioned. Speaking of which... if all of us wants a piece of Equestria, why don't we divide it up so we can rule bits and pieces of the land instead of killing each other for the whole thing." Plague then stripped each of the weapons and armor from the guards and put them into the cells where the group once was and threw the keys out the window. "Let's leave this place. It's starting to give me bad memories from when i lived here, especially the memories of how i fought the entire royal family." Plague said while opening every other cell, releasing every other prisoner in the dungeon.
"Split up Equestria?" Faux said it slowly. She wouldn't mind owning a piece of the Everfree Forest maybe a bit of the White Tail Woods. "I can live with that." Faux took a full set of the guards armor and put it on, it was a little big but it was as close she was going to get. "Better try to blend in at least." she muttered slipping the helmet on.
"if we're going to split up Equestria, I'll take cloudsdale, ponyville And Vanhoover". He turned to the other prisoners. "alright, I know you hate the guards as we do but you are not as powerful as us. So if you lot stick together as an army and raid the armoury. You will be useful to us. Now go".
The creatures that Plague released where varied greatly between malicious ponies to creatures great and small. Diamond Dog rush past along with a small gang of pegasi in black fedoras. Half-crazed unicorns storm by, followed by wolves carrying a small pony clinging to one of their backs. Trolls, golems, you name it spreads outwards, all heading straight for the light of day. Including Cydonia, trotting on behind the horrid rabble. "Split up Equestria?" Her tittering echoing as she disappears down the corridor, making her way through the commotion towards the surface. The guards were rather overwhelmed. Former prisoners were coming from above, below, left, right and centre. Monsters where clubbing them away while pegasi darted all over the sky. Unicorns were attempting to set up force fields and other barriers to contain the escapees, slowing them down but not managing to stop them fully.
Seeing cydonia left he turned to plague and the others. "seems she is rather greedy. Wanting Equestria all to herself. Anyway whoever's in favour of splitting Equestria say Aye".
Faux left the opposite way everypony else went and up a winding staircase to the top, she flew to the shafts in the roof and scanned the room at the top, guards were at a table in the middle of the room talking and didn't even notice the orange mare. Cages of more prisoners over crowd the room but one little cage in the far back only caught Faux's interest. Kenji was sleeping in the small cage, below her were more diamond dogs and what Faux though was a small serpent. With great stealth, Faux jumped from shaft to shaft till she was right above the target cage. She fluttered her way down and easily unlocked the cage without a single noise, and picked up the sleeping Kenji. With Faux back in the safety of the shafts she jumped back and out the door.
"Equestria is a big land, but im sure we would all be happy with just a slice of the cake. I will be happy as long as i receive Canterlot once this is all over" Plague said to dark. Plague in the near the front of the crowd trying to preserve as much magic as he could without having it drained. He picked up a sword and threw it over to one of the prisoners before looking outside to see the view of Canterlot and it's surrounding areas. He looked towards the crowd once more before he flew out the window to the streets below to watch the chaos unfold. He waited there for the rest of the group before he could come up with his part of the plan, the death of Princess Celestia. He tried to remove the drainer from his horn, but had no success. He needed someone to remove it for him but would have to wait for about three days until he is at 100%. Once then,he was ready for his new empire to spring out of the ashes of Celestia's.
Dark flew off away from the other groups. Towards Luna's room. That is where they met again. "I know you think I am a bad guy but here me out. You and your sister are in serious danger. Leave now, head into this portal and once this is over, I shall return you. Oh I just need a bit of this". Dark ripped out a large chunk of Luna's mane before opening a portal to allow Luna to leave. Returning to the others. "Guys, Luna has been delt with. I have a piece of her mane to prove it".
Faux caught up with the others quickly, hiding Kenji with her wings. "We do even have a plan?" The chaos outside caught her attention and she looked out the stainglass window out onto the street below. Stallions and mares were running in fear as all of the unleash vilians caused havoc. Faux couldn't help but laugh at the citizens and their fail attempts to break free from the vilians grasped. "These ponies are just running around leaving their houses unattended! This is just to good, imagine all of the valuable stuff that's out in the open!" Faux smiled and laughed happily.
