Back in Equestria Canterlot Castle.
"No! Get away from her you vile demon! you're dealing with me now!" a young human girl with earth for skin and bright green grass for hair levitated defensively in front of a fallen Sunset Shimmer and her friends. "You will not touch another hair on their heads while I stand!!!" She boomed as she looked up at a huge black mist. She began to glow bright red as she tighten her fists before extending her arms at the black mist, a huge lightning bolt flew out entwined with flowers and plant vines. The powerful projectile hit the black mist and continued to stream out of Light Shimmer's hands to the level that it started to drain her color...she fell to her knees without stopping her attack, as she screamed in pain she finally heard a booming voice shriek out in agony from within her target.
Light Shimmer dropped to the ground completely spent before the mist let out a horrid cackle.
"Stony, Stony you're a shadow of your former self...shame you have to die like this...after our last battle you showed so much promise...oh well...say hello to Thunder Sparkle for me!!" The black mist's horrid voice filled the air around them. "These new playthings will do just fine." Sunset Shimmer looked up and tried to get to her feet quickly reaching out to Light Shimmer.
"NO SUNSET! GET BACK NOW!!" Ordered Light Shimmer as she held her hand up to stop Sunset Shimmer approaching, the black mist let out a fowl cackle and struck Light with one huge magical purple shot and then fell silent. Light Shimmer stood immobile looking straight at Sunset Shimmer, then her eyes turned black and she started to slowly crumble into soil. Sunset Shimmer let out a agonizing scream as she saw her sister destroyed before her very eyes.
Princess Luna awoke horrified at her vision, she yelped for the first time in her long life at the images in her mind. Within seconds she found herself heading to Celestia's chambers to describe the vision as accurate as she could. Luna couldn't get the horrifying image of Light Shimmer been completely destroyed by such immense power. Who was this new girl.
"What is it sister? you seem agitated!" Celestia's answered her chamber door instantly to Luna's knocking.
"Death...a lot of death." Luna looked up at her powerful sister. "Sunset Shimmer and her friends are in danger!" She continued. "The Titan will destroy them all..." She began to loose her cool a little.
"That's why we sent them Stone Hammer...he can help them.." Celestia placed her head on her sisters to try and comfort her. "Sit and and calm yourself Luna...and let's start from the top of this vision before we inform Twilight and Sunset." She guided her sister inside her chamber.
Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie's Room
Fluttershy sat at the breakfast table with her pet rabbit Angel, she was enjoying her mocha and vanilla muffins that Pinkie Pie had made her last night before she slept at her girlfriend's house.
"Well things have definitely liven up in the last day Angel." She said as the rabbit ate his muffin and then looked at her. "Why yes Angel Pinkie Pie is at Sunset's again, I don't think she is going to be sleeping here for a while...you know the whole honeymoon phase thing...well you know how it is...you're a rabbit." Fluttershy giggled as Angel looked at her with his usual stern look. "Well now there is only me and Rainbow Dash left single...Rarity doesn't count...she has new boyfriends every few days." She smirked as Angel tapped his saucer with his foot asking for more mocha. "Why yes of course." She smiled gently. "I'm looking forward to talking to Stone Hammer...she has amazing magic, she just makes nature from thin air...I mean its so beautiful....you would love her...she looks like some sort of Demigod...well I think actually that is what she is." Fluttershy mused as her mobile phone chimed.
"Hello? Fluttershy here." She answered softly.
"Brace yourself...and don't freak out..." Came Sunset Shimmers voice and a bright spark flash filled room and suddenly Light Shimmer was standing in front of Fluttershy as she squeaked in shock.
"Fluttershy don't fret you already know me...I'm Light Shimmer, you met me as Stone Hammer." She smiled as she looked at Fluttershy and then at Angel. "Please to meet you too Angel...of course I wont hurt Fluttershy...I'm hoping to learn how to make friends with her..." Light Shimmer engaged conversation with Angel as Fluttershy looked at them. "Yes...you have a productive day to my young brother." Light Shimmer said to Angel and then turned to Fluttershy. "Close your eyes young one." She said gently as she placed both hands on Fluttershy's shoulders.
"Why do I..." Fluttershy began but then stopped as her hair felt a massive warmth of air hit her.
"Welcome Fluttershy...congratulations you just teleported!" Pinkie Pie gave her a huge hug.
"What? when? how?!" Fluttershy was still sat on a chair but instead of hers this belonged to Sunset Shimmer. "Oookay...Light Shimmer was it?" She looked up at the short girl. "You look different from yesterday."
"It's a long story...that we will surely one day revisit..but for now I need to do this." Light Shimmer placed her right hand on Fluttershy's head and the other on her own heart. Green energies flowed through Light Shimmer to Fluttershy for a few seconds as Fluttershy's eyes grew tears and she gave a massive exhale.
"Oh...my god...all this life!" Fluttershy slightly raised her voice. "I can feel all life...everything...I can hear heartbeats...the wind...this is amazing!!" She continued as she looked at Light Shimmer. "What did you do?....thank you." Fluttershy could feel the power inside her quadruple.
"I released your old magic...you're like me...an earth elemental...we're sisters of nature....I am no longer a watcher...I have reverted to my natural state." Light Shimmer took Fluttershy's hands in hers. "Relax and let all the background sounds fall apart from your mind...concentrate only on us in this room...or you will go a bit crazy..." Light Shimmer warned.
"Okay...I got this..." Fluttershy closed her eyes and allowed her mind to only think of the people with her right now. "I think I got it." She smiled as the sounds calm down and she was once again just hearing her friends.
"This is my gift to you...we will need it." Light Shimmer stood up and looked at Sunset Shimmer who had Pinkie Pie on her lap. "Now....where is that siren?" Her gaze now stern and serious.
"Oookay...maybe tone down the scary..." Pinkie Pie raised her eyebrows.
"Light...Sonata Dusk is our friend...whatever you think of sirens, Sonata is not like them." Sunset Shimmer explained as she stood up and walked to her wardrobe.
"Oh yes...Sonata is lovely...so sweet and innocent...she would never hurt a fly." Fluttershy shared.
"Yeah Sonata is awesome...but there was that time they took over our school and brainwashed everyone into zombies...oh oh oh and that time when the took over Twilight Sparkle...oh oh and the time...." But Sunset Shimmer quickly covered Pinkie Pie's mouth with one hand and wrapped her other arm around the pink girl's waist.
"Honey...you're not helping here..." Sunset Shimmer gritted her teeth and looked at Pinkie Pie from the side. "The point is...that was in the past...Sonata left all that behind ever since Twilight Sparkle restored her magic." Light Shimmer watched Sunset closely then raised her left eyebrow.
"Do you have so much forgives because you feel guilty about what you did?" Light questioned bluntly as she tilted her head to the side.
"Well..yeah kinda...wait a minute how did you know that?" Sunset Shimmer stopped in her tracks.
"Last night our memories melded while we slept...we share a lot of qualities Sunset Shimmer...don't think of what happened as invasive...you have my memories too..." Light looked at her sister. "I guess it's magic I don't fully understand...but I think I have been placed here in your time as your sister...that's why we seem so at easy with each other..."
"I thought I felt unusually close to you since I woke up...I mean this all feels so familiar...sitting here with you having breakfast...it's just like we have done this before so much it's second nature." Sunset Shimmer mused over the information she had just received.
"Wow SISTERS!" Pinkie Pie was next to Light Shimmer in seconds giving her head a hug without releasing it this time.
"Pinkie...Pie...need...oxygen....now!...." Light Shimmer tried to breath as Pinkie let her go and closed in on Light's face.
"That means that we're sisters too!!" She smiled as Light looked at her and then tapped Pinkie's head.
"I accept you as a sibling too Pinkie..." Light mused... "By your bond to Sunset I guess that makes you my sister too." Light turned to Sunset Shimmer "So the demon inside you...I will only call on it as a last resort...but If I do I will destroy it and free you from it..." Light looked at Sunset sternly.
"Demon!? I thought that was gone!" Sunset Shimmer looked horrified.
"No...the rage is there...I would destroy it if we where in a different situation...but I'm not sure if I wont have need of it...together with the siren as a weapon I might be of use to our cause." Light emanated the aura of a leader that gave Sunset Shimmer, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy the feeling to follow her without question.
"Sonata is a weapon?" Asked Fluttershy as Pinkie Pie popped from her side.
"Like a sword weapon, or like a gun weapon...oh oh or like a...." Pinkie Pie started to roll but once again her partner was there to relax her.
"Why don't we let her explain sugarcube..." Smiled Sunset Shimmer as she gave the pink girl a quick peck on her cheek.
"Later...for now let's get everyone else at a meeting point...I would like to meet the team that will be facing Atlas Moon with me to explain what will be expected of us all." She stated as she stood up. "How do I look?" She questioned Sunset Shimmer.
"Well it's safe to say you can pull off the jock look with a body like that." Sunset Shimmer smiled. "You look like a cross-fit athlete."
"I'm guessing Applejack's clothes?" Smiled Fluttershy as she looked at Light Shimmer.
"Here! this completes it." Pinkie Pie appeared behind Light Shimmer and placed a trucker baseball cap on her. "Now you look awesome." She stated.
"Okay...well you know best." Smiled Light Shimmer.
