Choices

Everyone gathered back up at the friendship castle and scowered the place looking for Alex. "He aint anywhere in the castle." Rainbow Dash stated "But where in tarnation could he have gone?" Applejack asks and Twilights eyes widen. "THE BARRIER!"

They all rushed to the barrier and saw Alex standing there. "Thank you all for helping me." He says as he slowly turns around "But... I have to go alone. I can risk any of you getting hurt because of my failures. Please understand this." Alex states as he begins to slowly walk toward the crumbling barrier. "Alex... you dont have to do this alone!" Applejack yells "Applejack is right! This is our fight now! We have to help you and everyone in there." Twilight states. "Twi... everyone... as much as you wish to help... this fight is out of your hooves. You know that, even from being this close.... you can sense it cant you twi?" He asks as he turns around, everyone looks at her and she solumly nods. "Yes i can sense that powerful magic.... its nothing like ive ever felt.... its evil... but...." She begins to say "Twi.... you know that sometimes... there are things you just cant go up against. Like the phantom... this evil is stronger then anything you have ever encountered... you all will die if you charge in with me.... i cant let that happen... CURAGE!" He yells as his bodily injuries are fully healed. He jumps back into the crumbling barrier. "BARRIER!!!!" He screams as a new magical barrier erupts stopping them from entry. "ALEX!!!" Twilight screams as she tries to stop him but is too late, they all slam into the barrier to try and get through but they cant break it. "Please Alex.... dont do this.... you know if... things go bad.... you will most likely die..." Twilight says as tears begin to come to her eyes. "I know. But.... if its to save Selena.... I will do eveything necessary..... I wont let Pinkamena win....." He slowly turns around "Alex....... do you best. Dont let her win... you are the strongest Pegasus I have ever met.... you can do this... but please..... try to save Pinkie PIe...... We cant lose her and you too..." Twilight says through her sobs "Dont worry." He says as he turns his head slightly to look at them with his back turned to them "I will not fail. I will save Celestia, Pinkie PIe and Selena." He says he looks straight forward and then dashes onward.

"Please... just come back to us....."

Alex looks onward and begins to run through the ruined canterlot city. His keyblade in his muzzle. He looks up as see a dark mass of energy and sees it fire into the corpses of the ponies that were killed and they begin to rise up. He growls "GET OUT OF MY WAY!" He swings the keyblade and begins to hack and slash through the reanimated corpses. And dashes onward to, zipping back and forth through out the alley ways of Canterlot City. He slowly makes his way to where Canterlot Castle would be... but he soon stops and his pupils dylate. "What......"

Where Canterlot Castle once was a giant new castle took its place. It was massive giant citdal castle. Pure black with blood stained glass windows. It has 1 giant huge tower on one side while there was a huge tower in the middle of it. He slowly approaches the new castle that overtook the ruins of canterlot castle. He looks over and tears begin to fill his eyes, he slowly picks up a dark blue crown. "Selena.... Im coming for you."

At the top in a throne room

Pinkamena sat infront of a tube as screams of pain came from the tube. "Almost... my masterpiece is almost ready." She says with a wicked grin "You... wont.... gwah!!" The voice screeches in pain as demonic energy surges into the being within the tube "Oh but i will little princess of the night. And soon... not you or your lover will be able to stop me! GEHAHAHAHAHAH!!!"
