Rise of Equestria

Chapter 6:Friends And Foes

It is finally time. The final battle where the winning side of this war will very likely be decided. Whoever kills their leader first, may lead their race to win. Both leaders head out to venture, to fight the other for their side. Who knew once a pair of best friends can make this happen? The two's thoughts were the same.
Anyway, as the battle waged throughout Earth, Frisk got to the palace in Britannica, hopefully, to find Twilight. But, she hopes she would not fight her, but negotiate with her. Twilight thought of the same way, but she instead wanted to fake Frisk before saying her true feelings.
'Where are you, Twilly? You know you can't hide from me forever.' Frisk had a cold smile.
She was walking down the hallway, very quietly with her sword at hand. All of a sudden, she felt a gust of wind coming from behind.
'You finally came.' She thought. Turning back, she was right; Twilight was about to hit her from behind, flying in the air. She blocked her from attacking and pushed her away with her dual swords.
Twilight was in full power and maximum condition. 'Frisk Dreemur.' She said, angrily.
'Twilight Sparkle,' Frisk replied. 'It's finally time, isn't it?'
'Huh, I wonder now... Why didn't we do this at the beginning?' Twilight asked.
Frisk was tempted to negotiate now but thought that Twilight won't forgive her so soon. 'Ah, my old "friend". I couldn't believe that we'll be standing right here in a showdown against each other.'
'Maybe this won't be happening if we didn't break up in the first place.' Twilight said. 'You started this. And now... I am here to end this. I have always wondered which one of us is the stronger one. I guess... we will find out now.'
Frisk got herself ready. 'Let's settle this debate... Once and for all.'
Their blades clashed and had a long sword fight. It was a long battle, with the two beating each other up with swords, magic and of course other powers. Yes, a battle of the ages, with the two leaders fighting in true war fashion.
This caught the attention of their main supporters. The ponies are fighting the humans, but Frisk's supporters were fighting their own team.
'Wow, their fight is getting pretty intense.' Mark said to Stacy.
'I know right? We should go there and have a look after we deal with these guys.' She replied. 'Anyone else wants to join?'
Joseph was struggling. 'Sure, but a little help here please!'


On the other side, Twilight's friends are powering through as well.
'Let's move everypony! For Equestria!' Starlight commanded.
'Yeah! Let's kick the humans' butt!' Rainbow exclaimed, fighting a bunch of humans back with her powers.
As they were fighting, they heard the sounds of the two fighting in the palace.
'It must be them,' Celestia said. 'They need some help, let's go!'


In the palace, the two were already getting real beat up by each other. Twilight got thrown away by Frisk.
'Take this!' Frisk blasted out a beam of energy.
Twilight did the same to prevent her dying. 'I won't let you!'
The lasers went back and forth for a moment, and a minute later it exploded, knocking both of them back. Frisk was struggling to get up, with cuts and bruises all over her. Twilight looked the same but still stood up to her.
'(Breaths) It seems... We're both equally as strong but...' Twilight said.
Frisk was very tired as well. However, she knew this was the perfect moment. 'You know Twilly... I have a confession to make.'
Twilight knew what she was doing, and knew what to do. 'Actually, me too.'
'Wait, really?' Frisk asked.
She nodded. 'All I can say is... I'm sorry.'
Frisk was surprised she knew what she wanted. 'Oh, Twilight...'
'Do you remember this song?' Twilight smiled. A second later, she started singing.

'I didn't think that we'd stand here,
We both thought we couldn't go back even if we really wanted to...
But just what can we do?
Here in the end, it's just me and you.'

Frisk knew this song. She has listened to it before. However, she had her own version.

'I never wanted it to go like this...
Breaking our bond, we're playing out the part of the fool,
So here we go, you can judge me thoroughly,
It's not late for apologies...'

'Go ahead and just kill me if you're able,
We know our friendship is way too unstable...
I know we're getting really tired out of fighting,
But I don't even know why we're trying...'

'This isn't what I want, yet it's what I asked for...
Curiosity over all my lessons,
I took away our perfect, happy ending,
Betraying your kind despite the warnings...'

'Right now we're made... of~ Love... Oh~
Love~ Love... Oh...'

The two walked closer to each other and continued their song, shedding a few tears.

'I know who you are,'
'You remember who I am...'
'We knew that once in a timeline,
we had grown to be good friends...'

'And because of that one fight,'
'We have never talked again...'
'I've given up myself,
I know we'll never be the same...'

'So go ahead and kill me if you're able,
All the sin that we can feel is unbearable,
All the promises we kept are slowly dying,
And the consequences last forever...'

'I know we made our bond just disappear,'
'But both of us regret it, this is why we're here.'
'We are both sorry,'
'We know that we're wrong,'
'But I know how to make it right...'

'I know your heart is screaming out my name.' Frisk said.
Twilight was heartbroken. 'I never wanted this to happen.'
In this judgment hall, what was supposed to happen didn't happen. It wasn't judging who would win the war, it was judging if their friendship is worth getting them both back together. Holding hands, they had only one thing to say before continuing.
'Why can't we just get along?'

'I know we're made, of~ Love... Oh...
Love~ Love... Oh...
But I'll give up for you.'
'(High pitched) Love... Oh~ Love~
But I'll give up for you.'
'Love... Love~ Oh...'


'Twilight, if you are sorry, and you want us to be back together... Cure me with your spell.' Frisk said, collapsing to the floor, but not dying.
Twilight thought about it a lot. She has wanted to spare her for a long time.
'Frisk... Don't die on me. I... I will always be with you.' She smiled, using her spell to cure Frisk.
At last, Frisk was free from her growing pains. Whether it's inside or on the outside, she felt so free now. She used her spell to cure Twilight as well. And of course, the spell worked. Both looked at each other, smiling happily.
'Haha... Twilight, you know you want to.' Frisk said with her arms open. 'Come here.'
She immediately hugged her tightly into her heart. Both friends embraced each other, crying tears of joy.
'Frisk... (sobs) I missed you so much... I'm so sorry...' Twilight cried.
'I missed you too, Twilight. And I'm sorry too.' Frisk replied softly. 'I never wanted it to go like this. I know, it might have been my fault. But, let's put our differences aside. I understand both of us to want to reunite with each other.'
Twilight wanted to dry her tears, but just couldn't let go of her friend. '(Chuckles) I don't want to let you go... But, I don't understand, have you missed me all this time?'
'It's a long story to why I had a change of heart. I made new friends in the army a few months ago, and they told me they originally wanted to join your side. As time flew by, I regretted breaking up with you more and more, and my heart only sank deeper. I started to miss you after I nearly killed Celestia, and it only grew.' Frisk explained.
'You nearly killed Celestia?' Twilight gasped.
Frisk chuckled. 'Let's not talk about it. But, one thing I want to say is: I never want this to ever happen again. I will forgive you, no matter what. Will you forgive me, Twilly?' She showed her friend a cute face and begged for her forgiveness.
'Of... Of course, I will surely forgive you.' Twilight answered, pulling her close. 'I love you so much... Although it's weird, I really do.'
Frisk's tears were drying up before but came again after she said that. 'I love you too, Twilly.'
Suddenly, sounds came beyond the door.
'Let's go, move move move!' Someone called out.
The two friends stood up back-to-back, with their swords at the ready.
'Twilight, did you hear that?' Frisk asked.
'Oh no... They're here already?'
The humans broke in. They were certainly not happy when they saw those two.
'Hey! You traitor! Why are you with her!?' One of them asked.
'I will protect her, no matter what!' Frisk shouted back.
'Why, you little-' Before he could finish, someone stabbed a crystal sword right into his heart, and did the same with the others that were also with him.
'You guys made up!' She called out. It was Jessica. 'Nice job, Frisk!' She gave her a high-five.
'Yes, we just made up with each other. Thanks for the help Jessica, you just saved us.' Frisk said. 'Oh, and I just realized... I never told you about my friend.'
'Huh? Frisk, who is she?' Twilight was curious, considering she didn't want to murder her.
'Twilight, meet Jessica, my friend when I was in the army. She had a few other friends as well: Mark, Dan, Joseph, and Stacy.' She saw Mark rushing in. 'Hey look, Mark and the others are coming.'
'Hey, Frisk! What's up? I totally owned those humans!' Mark exclaimed excitedly. 'Oh, and I see you made up with your friend, that's good.'
On the other side of the hall, another voice was traveling through.
'Twilight? Where are you?' Somepony called out.
She recognized her voice. 'It's Celestia! She's coming to help!'
The group of ponies entered the room. They saw Frisk and Twilight together and were all very happy. However, the other humans backed away to make sure they don't get hurt.
'Hey, who's that behind you?' Starlight asked.
Mark was a little nervous. 'Don't worry, we come in peace and we don't want to hurt you guys. I am Mark, and this is my friend Jessica, or just Jess.'
'Don't kill them. they said that they want to join you guys.' Frisk explained.
Celestia thought for a bit and accepted them to join in, and their friends can also help as well.
'So, what's the plan?' Jess asked.
'Let's turn the tables in our favor.' Celestia said. 'With the power from all of you, we can still win easily. In fact, I was working on a spell ever since video game powers were invented. I can help buff all of you guys at once!' She said, initiating a powerful spell. Everyone instantly felt much more powerful, with an aura of gold shining around them, like a super saiyan in Dragon ball Z.
'Holy moly, this is awesome!' Mark was so excited.
Frisk looked at Twilight. 'Now that we're back together, let's team up and end this war.'
'Let's do this, for Equestria!' Twilight put out her hand, and everyone went around and placed their hand on top of hers, and raised them up in the air in harmony. The battle has just begun.
