    I'm going to say this upfront: I'm a bit embarrassed writing this one out, but this parody has been playing in my head ever since I first heard it, and I'd very much like to evict it. It's a rewrite of Man On The Internet's lyricized version of "In The Final" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipVrglfEXLA) from Bowser's Inside Story, recontextualizing it into a battle between the Elements of Harmony, Alicorn King Anon, and Sombra. The song bits will be conveyed in a script style because I have no idea how else I'd write out the lyrics in a Greentext format, and I highly recommend you give the song itself a listen or two to get an idea of the cadance I tried and probably failed to convey. If you're still here, you're a trooper.

    >You're lean, mean, and unreasonably green
  4. 4.
    >Packing a sleek set of wings and the kind of horn of which other unicorns can only dream
  5. 5.
    >Once again, (You)'re back in the building as His Majesty, King Anonymous Rex
  6. 6.
    >Things have been going pretty good these past few months
  7. 7.
    >It finally came time to kick Twilight out of her tower
  8. 8.
    >You managed to not fuck up her development enough that she made the proper friends and found the Elements of Harmony
  9. 9.
    >Stopped Luna's attempt at a sequel to her rebellion before a single night, good work girl
  10. 10.
    >One more Alicorn for the pile
  11. 11.
    >(Please ignore that the pile is only three ponies, counting you)
  12. 12.
    >(Also that Luna has been a truly heinous bitch since you met, and will probably remain so for the foreseeable future)
  13. 13.
    >Twilight kept up her Friendship Reports, everything is mostly how you remember it
  14. 14.
    >With the exception of Discord being more of a bro in this timeline
  15. 15.
    >Though you do lament that resulting in Twilight and her friends not getting more experience in using the Elements or dealing with major threats
  16. 16.
    >She still performed admirably when it came time for the Wedding, even if you had to act like a complete dumbass the entire time
  17. 17.
    >The entire ordeal left a bitter taste in your mouth
  18. 18.
    >You didn't care to treat your star pupil in such a matter
  19. 19.
    >Twilight had come to become like a daughter to you, and it pained you to play things so close to canon for her development
  20. 20.
    >And so when she answered your summons to deal with this next matter
  21. 21.
    >You decided... what could it really hurt, to not stick to the script so thoroughly?
  22. 22.
    >As in the proper timeline, you had sent Cadence and Shining Armor out to investigate the 'rumors' of the returned Crystal Empire
  23. 23.
    >As before, they sent back requests for aid
  24. 24.
    >Part of you did worry you hadn't prepared Cadence as well as Celestia would have
  25. 25.
    >You could teach magic in your sleep to Twilight
  26. 26.
    >You were a unicorn before you fell in with the wrong crowd (The Tree of Harmony), after all, so you understood the mechanics there
  27. 27.
    >Alicorn magic, though...
  28. 28.
    >Shit, it's been centuries, and you're still learning new things about your capabilities
  29. 29.
    >From esoteric magic abilities like your limited futuresight
  30. 30.
    >To fine-tuning your control over the Sun (formerly the Moon as well, but you had ceded it back to Luna as soon as she was able to, and not a second before, despite her petulant attitude)
  31. 31.
    >Wait, we got a bit off track there
  32. 32.
    >The point is the Empire's back, and unlike your still-missing, fat-assed alabaster counterpart
  33. 33.
    >You aren't sending Twilight off empty-hooved and with a demand she make a hero out of herself
  34. 34.
    >The Elements were distributed to their bearers
  35. 35.
    >And while you gave Twilight Sparkle your honest praise and assurances that she could handle this threat
  36. 36.
    >You made a solemn promise (A Pinkie Promise is still solemn if you look sad enough while doing it) that you would be at her side if she should need it
  37. 37.
    >Hoofing over a Summoning Stone keyed to your magical signature, to make sure that if came to pass, she would have your might
  38. 38.
    >You did believe in your charge and her friends
  39. 39.
    >They'd done this before, and you knew they had it in them to do it again
  40. 40.
    >So you're a bit shocked as you're enjoying your evening tea that your cup vanishes from your lips
  41. 41.
    >And you're placed smack dab in the middle of some great cloud of swirling, oppressive black smoke
  42. 42.
    >With an encroaching wave of dark magic hurtling towards you
  43. 43.
    >Fortunately, you've got centuries of conflict tucked away under your belt, allowing you to both react to the wave of power and notice the six mares beside you that probably will need protecting too
  44. 44.
    >Conjuring seven dense bubbles of pure green magic that visibly crack and shudder against Sombra's attack
  45. 45.
    >Wow
  46. 46.
    >That was a bit more than you were expecting
  47. 47.
    >What's all this, then?
  48. 48.
    >Detective Mode, activate
  49. 49.
    >Your Arcane Vision flares to life as you step back, deeper into the thick fog to get a better idea of what you've stepped into
  50. 50.
    >The girls are all damn near blinding to look at, wearing their respective Elements of Harmony - that's good, they haven't lost them
  51. 51.
    >But the sheer amount of raw power radiating off of Sombra is... concerning
  52. 52.
     
  53. 53.
    >It's then that you trace what you're really looking at here
  54. 54.
    >King Sombra has fashioned some kind of Mana Battery and hooked it up to himself, amplifying his power
  55. 55.
    >The magic is so intense that you could probably see it pulsing on him without your Arcane Vision
  56. 56.
    >His fur is totally standing on end and
  57. 57.
    >With his mane sticking straight up like that....
  58. 58.
    >He's totally stealing your mane style!
  59. 59.
    >That fucker!
  60. 60.
    >Wait, no, focus
  61. 61.
    >Computer, enhance
  62. 62.
    >It looks like... a black star
  63. 63.
    >Crystalline in composition
  64. 64.
    >Okay, fuck
  65. 65.
    >No prizes for guessing what that REALLY is
  66. 66.
    >But it does explain the 'whys' of the situation
  67. 67.
    >As the dust settles (or at least gets less dense)
  68. 68.
    >King Sombra stares at the assembled mares with fascination
  69. 69.
    >The Elements, meanwhile, are equally fascinated at the fact that they currently aren't dead
  70. 70.
    >"... Still here? Has my dark power truly not crushed your puny hopes?"
  71. 71.
    >Undeterred and not curious enough for his own good, the Umbrum King stalks towards the Elements of Harmony, speaking more to himself than anything
  72. 72.
    >"Soon this Kingdom will vanish, along with all the Crystal Ponies who dwell within. Take heart! You and your precious Equestria will not be long in joining them, sleeping eternally in my dark power's embrace!"
  73. 73.
    >Twilight practically shrinks on herself, taking several steps backwards, ears flattening against her skull
  74. 74.
    >As much as you were enjoying the free information dump, the sight of your precious student panicking like that reminds you that given you slunk away the moment you appeared, she probably thinks the Summoning Stone failed and she's about to die
  75. 75.
    >Right, lets fix that
  76. 76.
    >You take a deep breath, and...
  77. 77.
    **"BWA HA HA HA HA!!!"**
  78. 78.
    >You don't step into the foreground yet, conflict on this scale requires an entrance
  79. 79.
    >And given the feeling welling up in your chest you know what's coming with it
  80. 80.
    "Great dark hurricane! Seriously - a perfect backdrop for an awesome royal battle! You really sweat the details, your majesty."
  81. 81.
    >The decade you spent learning ventriloquism is really paying off here, paired up with the swirling vortex of dark smoke, your thrown voice is literally being tossed to the winds
  82. 82.
    >Making it difficult to properly pinpoint, if the mares and Umbrum glancing around wildly are anything to go by
  83. 83.
    "But let me make sure I heard you right. You're saying MY kingdom will vanish?"
  84. 84.
    >You rear up, and bring your hooves down as hard as you can
  85. 85.
    >The resulting strike forcibly parts the smoke around you all, exposing the place Sombra's chosen as his grave and, more importantly, your presence
  86. 86.
    **"NOT TODAY.** That Kingdom is MINE. So **YOU FALL!"**
  87. 87.
    >Just as you declare the Umbrum king's life forfeit, you feel it erupt in your chest
  88. 88.
    >Showtime
  89. 89.
    >As if Harmony was going to let you get away with just stepping on this buffoon's skull, she demands a spectacle
  90. 90.
    >You open your mouth to begin the Heart Song, but are shocked when King Sombra beats you to it
  91. 91.

    >Of course, it wouldn't be much of a fight if the Umbrum King was just standing there belting out lyrics at you
  121. 121.
    >So even as he does, Sombra charges, his horn radiating with his perverse Dark Magic
  122. 122.
    >It barely looks like he can control it with how much his 'Dark Star' is empowering his magic, but he thoroughly demonstrates his skill as he conjures great boulders of dark crystals to try and crush you with
  123. 123.
    >You quickly take flight to dodge the projectiles, but that strategy is nixed when, with you off the ground, the Umbrum King immediately hurls a massive chunk of crystal at Rarity
  124. 124.
    >She screams and to her credit actually tries to conjure a shield of her own, but it probably would've been smarter of her to try and run out of the way
  125. 125.
    >Girl you manipulate sewing needles and track gems, your flank isn't blocking any of Sombra's attacks on his WORST day, much less now
  126. 126.
    >You quickly change trajectory to put yourself between the unicorn mare and the crystal, gritting your teeth as you don't have enough time to put up a sufficient barrier up to absorb the attack
  127. 127.
    >That stings, but you're a big colt, you'll be fine
  128. 128.
    >You need to keep Sombra's attention on you, though
  129. 129.
    >Beyond the fact that he could easily flatten any of the girls in this state, you have a use for them
  130. 130.
    >Using the crystal as a cover, you make eye contact with Rarity, and hope Sombra's dumbass battery doesn't give him enhanced senses
  131. 131.
    >Specifically hearing, as you risk whispering to the unicorn
  132. 132.
    "I'm going to draw his attacks. You and the others need to try and sever his connection to the Dark Star. Stress to Twilight how much that battery is the key to our victory. Do you understand?"
  133. 133.
    >Rarity is still shaken from being nearly crushed, but she does nod in the affirmative
  134. 134.
    >Good
  135. 135.
    >Gritting your teeth, you shove the huge chunk of crystal aside, blessed that none of the massive piece lodged itself in your thick Alicorn hide
  136. 136.
    >You remember seeing Shining's crystal herpes on his horn, no thanks to that
  137. 137.
    >Locking eyes with your opponent, you belt out before he can keep the momentum afforded by the Heart Song and LUNGE
  138. 138.

  339. 339.
