Training

---------------------------------------------TWILIGHT'S POV---------------------------------------
Once Sunset left with Shining Armor Luna asks "Are you ready to learn healing magic Twilight?"

"But of course auntie," answers Twilight with an eager smile.

"Okay, the first thing you need to do is feel the magic deep within you. Once you can feel it you need to focus it into your horn. Finally while pointing your horn at the injured person say Latua Miano Injurieo Reverseio. If you say the spell wrong nothing will happen but if you say it right the injury will reverse and it will be like it was never there," explains Luna as Twilight's horn and body began to glow.

When Luna saw that Twilight's body was glowing she says "Twilight your body is glowing."

"Oh, I'm so sorry. It does that every now and then when I'm happy, thinking of sunset or trying to protect her. Though I don't know what it means," answers Twilight to a shocked Luna.

"I have heard of this from my old friend Starswirl The Bearded. Before he died he told me in secret that one day I would teach a unicorn mare a healing spell. When I do her body will glow and when I see this I was to teach you a summoning spell. the words are I who do so swear to protect and guard the portal do summon thee. I summon thee oh magical Wariano to appear before me. The evil that comes is strong.So come to me. Come to me now," explains Luna to an amazed Twilight.

"What shall the spell summon,?" inquires Twilight.

"I honestly don't know. I tried casting the spell once but nothing happened. I believe the spell only works for you," answers Luna.

"Okay, I'm going to cast it. So please stand back and put up a shield spell, please. I don't want you to get hurt," says Twilight as Luna backs up and puts up the shield spell.

When Twilight knew the shield spell was finished she reached deep inside her for her magic. The moment she grabbed a hold of it her body started to glow. Once she saw she was glowing she cast the spell saying" I who do so swear to protect and guard the portal do summon thee. I summon thee oh magical Wariano to appear before me. The evil that comes is strong.So come to me. Come to me now."

Once Twilight finished the spell there was a bright flash of pink magic and in the middle of the room, a hole about ten miles deep appeared. When the magic ended a lightweight staff rose up from the hole.

When the staff rose to eye level over the hole a bridge appeared. Along with a sign that saying "Only the one with a pure heart, can see the future and bears the element of forgiveness may cross this bridge.

When Twilight read the sign out loud to Luna. Luna was in shock. Luna recovers quickly enough to say " Twilight you must cross the bridge and touch the staff."

"Of course Luna. I was planning on do it anyways," answers Twilight as she proudly walks over to the staff and touches it.

The moment Twilight touched the staff she heard a voice say" I am the healer known as Wariano. In a time when Equestria was young, i lived as a healer who specialized in healing spells. One day the mare who gave my life meaning was horribly wounded. I tried to heal her but failed. Once she died I gave up on ever healing again. A year after I gave up a goddess of visions appeared before me and says "You who have lost thy love and gave up on healing know that I can take away your pain. But there is a catch you must become a staff of healing for a unicorn in the future who is in need of your ability to bring out the healer in her. She will be pure of heart, a guardian of portals, can see the future and bears the hidden element of harmony known as forgiveness," explains the spirit of Wariano to Twilight.

"So bearer of the element of forgiveness will you take my spirit and staff. Will you allow me to bring out your full potential as a healer,?" Inquires Wariano.

"Of course oh great Wariano," says Twilight confidently.

There was another flash of light and the hole and bridge vanished. Luna after coming to her senses from the flash came over to Twilight saying"Are you okay my niece?"

"Yes I am perfectly fine Luna," answers Twilight looking up to the alicorn.

"What happened? After you touch the staff it was like you were talking to yourself,?" asks Luna looking worried.

"It might have appeared like I was talking to myself. But in reality I was talking to the spirit of the healer Wariano," explains Twilight to a surprised Luna.

"You spoke with Wariano the great healer,?" asks Luna.

"Yes I did," says Twilight telling Luna everything Wariano told her.

"Wow. I never knew that he was in love. All I knew was that he was the greatest healer ever and one day he just disappeared. Wait a minute. Did you say a goddess knew this was going to happen,?" inquires Luna looking amazed.

"Yes. According to Wariano the goddess foresaw this danger and set up a layer of protection. Could you contact Princess Twilight and ask her to find out all she can?" answers Twilight looking upset.

"Of course. But what's wrong,?" inquires Luna seeing that Twilight was deeply upset.

"There was another part of my dream where one of my friends is killed in the fight. I'm afraid that that part will come true," answers Twilight crying.

"Oh, deary there is no need to cry. I will ask Twilight to look into this. I will also teach you all I can to help prevent it," says Luna trying to soothe Twilight's spirit.

----------------------------------------------------SUNSET'S POV-------------------------------------

"Sunset the first thing you need to do is think of the one thing you want to protect. Once you know what it is, say these words. Spiritano Protectano Shieldano," says Shining with a smile.

Sunset thinking of her wife focuses all her magic into her horn and says while her entire body glows " Spiritano Protectano Shieldano."

The moment Sunset finished the spell a sphere appeared around her. As the spell ended the sphere disappeared.

The moment the shield was gone Celestia trots over to Sunset and asks " Sunset did you know you were glowing?"

"Oh was I,?" asks Sunset with worry.

"Yes, my daughter you were. Has this happened before,?" inquires Celestia looking at her daughter while wondering if the story passed down to her father could be true.

"Well to be honest yes. It started happening a couple days ago. You see whenever I am happy and when I'm with my wife my wife and I start to glow. We don't know what causes it but it feels like my body is trying to summon something," explains Sunset looking worried.

"My dear daughter. I would like you to think of your wife and say these words. I who am one of the chosen commands that who so ever wishes to protect this world and all portals to show yourself," says Celestia with a hopeful look.

Sunset thinks of Twilight which makes her body glow says " I who am one of the chosen commands that who so ever wishes to protect this world and all portals to show your self."

Once Sunset finished talking there was a flash of light. As the light vanished there in front of Sunset stood a Mythril shield and a platinum horn blade.

Once Celestia saw the shield and horn blade she says to Sunset " My dear daughter you must touch the shield and horn blade."

Wha-what will happen when I do touch it,?" asks Sunset worried.

"When you touch them you will hear a voice. Just stay calm and you will be fine," answers Celestia with a smile.

"Okay mom here I go," says Sunset touching the shield and horn blade.

The instant she touched them she heard them say " I the shield am the spirit of Wakano the greatest wielder of shield magic ever and this horn blade is Makano, my brother. He was a master of the blade and attack magic. When we were alive we were Celestia and Luna's grandparent's personal protectors. But one day a unicorn came to us and said that one day about 500,000 years from then we would be needed. So with our permission, we allowed her to cast a spell on us to transform us into the Shield of Amplification and the Blade of Protection. She also made it to where only the chosen could summon and wield us. So we are at your command," says Wakano unlocking Sunset's full potential.

Once Sunset came to her senses she says to Celestia "They are the spirits of Wakano and Makano. They served your grandparents until a unicorn warned them that Kaelomek was going to appear. They didn't betray your grandparents as history says they did."

"Okay, now my daughter. I want you to take the shield in your hoof and cast the shield spell. Once the shield is up I will cast my attack magic to test your shield. If the shield is intact after my we will move on to teaching you attack magic," says Celestia.

Sunset cast the shield that Shining taught her. Once the spell was cast a giant clear sphere appeared around her.

Once Celestia saw the shield spell was cast she cast her strongest attack spell. When the spell was cast a giant ball of condensed magic was launched at the shield.

The ball of magic made contact with the shield but didn't go through. instead, it got absorbed by the shield increasing its strength. After the attack magic was done the shield disappeared. Sunset noticed that the shield seemed impenetrable.

Celestia comes over to Sunset and says " Sunset your shield training is now over congratulations. Your shield spell is the strongest I have ever seen and that includes Shining Armor's. Now I need you to equip the horn blade."

"Okay mom," says Sunset as she equips the horn blade.

"Okay. Now that horn blade will enhance your attack magic. I'm going to teach you my strongest spell. This is the same spell I used on your shield. To cast this spell I need you to draw upon the anger and hate inside you. Focus it on your magic and let them fuse together. When they are fused say Itano Ikari Karino. After you say those words you will control a powerful burst of magic. You can even make it take the form of a sword if you wish," explains Celestia.

"Okay, mom. I'll train and hone my anger and hatred so it is in sync with my magic," says Sunset

"Very well. I will leave you to train for a month and a half. Once the time has come I will come to test you. Also just so you know I will be watching you so I can keep an eye on how your training is going," says Celestia leaving.

Over the next month and a half Sunset and Twilight started to hone their abilities. Twilight got so good at healing magic that she was able to reverse time on wounds that they never happened. Even missing body parts would heal like they were never missing.

Meanwhile, Sunset got so good at attack magic and wielding swords that no pony could best her. Her attack magic got so strong that if she wanted to she could make a whole mountain vanish.

Celestia saw that they were ready and says to a guard "Please bring me my daughter and her wife."

"Of course your highness," says the guard bowing and turning to leave.

Five minutes later the guard returned with Sunset and Twilight following behind the guard.

Celestia looked over at her sister and received a nod of approval. Celestia turns to the couple and says "Sunset and Twilight I am so proud of how much you have learned. I officially have nothing left to teach you. Go and save both our worlds."

"Thank you, mother. I promise I will return to tell you how the fight went. Also, thank you aunt Luna for everything," says Sunset as she and her wife teleport to the portal and went back home.

Sunset and Twilight walked through the portal and were greeted by their friends giving them a group hug.

"So are you all ready for battle,?" inquires Twilight.

"Heck yeah. Bring the monster on," answers Rainbow Dash.

"Well, the battle is in two weeks so get ready. This is going to be dangerous. If any of you want out now is the time," says Sunset.

All of their friends say in unison "No way. We are all in this together."

"Okay. Well we will see you in two weeks exactly at noon in front of C.H.S.," says Twilight as she and Sunset leave for their home.

After about half an hour Sunset and Twilight were walking through the door."Hey sweetie. I just wanted to say that I love you," says Twilight.

"I love you too. After all, you are my goddess of the night,?" says Sunset as they start a movie.
