The rain was pouring down as they reached the place the Discord Statue once was. It was gone, but Discord was still there. He was dead. His body was lifeless, and so were his eyes.

"What happened?" Stormy looked at him.

"He had his powers and soul sucked out." Horror sighed. "The process demands four ponies."

"Then we should move on. There comes nothing productive from standing around a dead body." Miasmic looked around. "But where can they be?"

"Canterlot?" Darth Star looked at the castle. It was still suspended by the magical chains.

A guard came in for landing. "There you all are."

Horror looked at him. "What?"

"This is urgent." The guard caught his breath. "Four ponies, all really powerful, have occupied Canterlot Castle and imprisoned the princesses. They are planning to use the telescope there to drag the sun down from the sky to burn Equestria."

Horror nodded at the rest. "Then we have a plan. Destroy the telescope and stop the four."

They left, fast. The guard watched them go, grinning with an evil smile. "Perfect." His appearance changed, revealing that he was really Backstab.

Blood took his stance as the four reapers approached. He grinned. "Look what we got here. Four stubborn kids?"

They landed in front of him. Horror posed as the leader. "Look who's talking?"

Blood laughed long and good. "You're an idiot, and the rest of your team are idiots too. My powers are beyond what any of you puny reapers have. I can fry you instantly if I can." He smiled and cast a spell. The four reapers collapsed.

Horror woke up. He appeared to be alone in a dark cell. The walls were moist, and the air was humid. He had no idea of where he was, but he knew that he had to escape, fast. He tried to get up, just to discover that he was chained to the ground with a metal collar and strong chains.

Something moved.

Horror looked around. "Who's there?"

"Horror? Is that you?" It was Darth Star.

"Darth Star?" He tried to turn.

"Yes." She sounded scared. "Are you okay?"

Horror nodded. "I'm fine. Yourself?"

"I'm okay, but I saw them lead Princess Celestia and Princes Luna out ten minutes ago. I think they are going to kill them." She sounded sad.

Horror growled. "We have to get out, now!" he started struggling. It felt hopeless, but then one chain broke, and he managed to struggle himself free. He got up and cut Darth Star's chain. "We must find the others."

Darth Star nodded and they broke the bars, getting into the hall. They found the others after just a few minutes of searching, and managed to free them too.

"Finally!" Miasmic was glad he could get up. "Those chains were painful."

Horror nodded. "Don't think about that now. We must hurry before he kills Celestia and Luna."

"What!" even Miasmic wasn't prepared for that.

Horror sighed. "Let us just get moving!"

The nodded and moved fast, galloping through the halls. They soon reached the stairs to the courtyard, moving up them at a high speed. They opened the doors. Too late. Blood looked at them, grinning. "Looks like you guys are too late." In front of him were the lifeless bodies of both the princesses. "With their powers can I finally bring Equestria to an end!"

Horror growled. "Over our dead bodies!"

"Very well." Blood laughed and sent Metalwings at them. "Kill them."

Metalwings grinned and entered a dive, moving fast. The steel wings started making a trace in the air as they started humming from the strong wind. He grinned, revealing that he had metal teeth too.

Horror growled. "Spread out!"

The spread like flies, and Metalwings crashed into the ground, followed by the sound of breaking bones. He skidded along the ground before hitting the wall, falling silent.

Blood growled. "I knew he was weak, but this is pathetic." His eyes glowed once, and Metalwings evaporated into a bloody mist.

Horror laughed. "What's next?"

Backstab grinned. "It's my turn." He galloped at then, his horn first. He used magic to paralyze Horror as he aimed for him.

Darth Star growled. "Don't you dare!" She drove her horn into his side, shocking him with magic. She then dropped him, letting him collapse onto the ground, dead.

Blood looked at them. "How!"

Miasmic grinned. "Teamwork."

Blood growled deeply. "Too bad Fleshwound isn't here now."

"Fleshwound?" Stormy tilted her head.

Blood laughed. "He's busy, eating the royal guard."

Stormy grinded her teeth. "Damnit. You're all freaks."

Blood smiled: "But what do we say?" a huge meteor broke the clouds over Ponyville. "Ah. That's right. The End."

Horror growled. "Everypony! We must combine our magic. NOW!"

They all put their horns together and focused, activating the spell Death had given them. The magic combined, and everything became white.

Blood became silent. "W-w-w-w-what's this!"

Death's voice was heard. "This is the end of your line."

Blood growled, but he started dissolving, vanishing. "N-n-n-n-no!" he tried to fight it, but with no result. He looked scared. Then he vanished.

Horror sighed. "Then that's that. He's gone, for good."

Suddenly everything became black, and they felt that a force started dragging them in different directions. Miasmic and Stormy couldn't resist it, and was hurled away.

"What's going on!" Darth Star struggled.

"I don't know!" Horror growled and fought the force.

Darth star looked at him. He suddenly realized that she had feelings for him. Her job had made her ignore those before.

Horror reached out a hoof. "Grab hold!"

She did, and the pulled each other closer.

Horror tried to smile. "Whatever happens after this, will I that you'll remember me. I love you."

She was crying. "I love you too. Both sides of you."

They were about to kiss, when the force shredded them away from each other. Everything went black.

Director Cut woke up. He was in a hospital, and so was the rest of his film crew. They were all injured, but alive. He looked around, discovering that he had been tossed a hundred years back in time.

Rapid Explosions, his special effect stallion looked at him. "You sounded like you have been having a bad nightmare."

Director Cut sighed. "I have."

Rapid nodded. "At least you're awake now. The doctors feared that you would fall into coma and never wake up."

Director looked up. "I guess I was lucky then." He nodded, awaiting a response, but none came. He looked around, noticing that time had frozen.

Death came out of a vortex, followed by Celestia.

Death nodded. "We are here to thank you for what you did."

Celestia stood there, gracefully. "You and your hit team changed the flow of time itself, preventing the Reaper Massacre and the end of Equestria."

Director tilted his head. "But what's in it for me? I lost the one pony I love."

Celestia nodded in agreement. "That is true, but I can grant you one wish for what you did."

Director sighed. "Then I wish I became a reaper, so I can live long enough to meet her again."

Death bowed. "As you wish. When time flows again will you no longer exist, and nopony will miss you."

Director looked at them. "What about the others?"

Celestia looked back at him. "They will all survive the incidents that originally killed them. And they'll get a wish too."

Director nodded. "Then send them my regards and say that I'll be waiting outside Ponyville with my cart in a hundred years from now."

Celestia nodded and she vanished, along with Death. Time started flowing again.

Rapid looked at him. "Good Day sir. Sorry if I have been bothering ya." He nodded and walked away.

Director sighed. Some things should never be fully changed. Now he just had to heal up and he would be out, doing reaper business once again.
