Book 3: Heroes Of The Realms

Chapter 9 Spirals

Nightshade sighed as he removed the shard from his chest and placed it in the middle of the throne room between the portals. The newly constructed portal Thyme had made was glowing a little differently than the other ones.

"There's no time like the present is there?" Nightshade asked himself as threw his gear on. Star Bright and Thyme came around the corner and saw Nightshade getting ready to leave once more. Star Bright was about to go to him but Thyme smiled and put a hoof on her shoulder.

"I actually want to go with him this time," Thyme said. Star Bright looked from Thyme to Nightshade and smiled with a slight nod. Thyme giggled, "I wanna see what this new realm is like before anypony else! Watch out world!" Thyme cheered as she flew in the air and pushed Nightshade through the portal.

Thyme squealed in joy as she rode on Nightshade's back and the two landed in the middle of a desert. Nightshade growled and forced Thyme off of him. Thyme fell on her face and stood. Nightshade turned and immediately blushed.

Thyme got up and was about to punch him but she noticed his expression, "What's wrong?" she asked. Nightshade wouldn't speak and just covered his face pointing at her. Thyme looked at herself and blushed.

Nightshade growled and wiped his face, "Well for one you aren't a pony anymore," he said throwing her some clothes from his pack. Thyme had become a busty human female wearing only panties and a slim bra. Thyme took the clothes and scowled.

"How come I have to wear guys clothes huh?!" Thyme growled putting them on. Night-shade turned to her and snapped his fingers as she finished putting them on. The clothes Nightshade had given her had become a short tank top showing off her slim stomach and tight blue shorts.

Thyme looked herself over and felt her hair flow in the wind. That made her giggle and laugh. Nightshade smiled and closed his bag. A large explosion erupted in behind the two and Thyme jumped onto Nightshade. Nightshade fell back a step and turned towards the explosion. A large robot stood before them.... It was really big...

Nightshade whistled and got Thyme off of his back, "Well this got a little interesting," he said smiling. Nightshade approached the robot, "Hi there! Are you an inhabitant of this fair land?" he asked.

The Robot stood and roared, "Another filthy human?! DIE!" it screamed as it prepared to fire. Nightshade scowled and drew forth his blades as the robot fired its bullets. Nightshade deflected each of the bullets with ease and focused his energy into his black sabre and sent forth a massive energy that sliced the robots arm down the middle.

The robot's expression changed to fear as Nightshade swiped at the air with his white sabre sending another wave of energy that sliced the robot in half! The robot fell and erupted into flames. Nightshade put up a barrier around himself and Thyme as the blade's washed over the landscape.

A wave of green energy passed over them both and the fire went away, "You know we appreciate the flashy play and attacks but come on you've gotta give us some fun to ya know?" a loud cry called. Nightshade and Thyme turned to see another large robot and Nightshade smiled.

The robot opened up and a man with red glasses and a red cape climbed out. Thyme smiled and noticed another person climb down from the top of robot. The man smiled as he approached Nightshade.

"Don't know what kind of tech you're wearing but I like it! Your weapons are super bad ass to! But they're nothing in comparison to my fighting spirit!" The man yelled. Thyme giggled at the man.
