Ghastly Gorge "Near Everfree Forest"
Sarkhan Vol stood on the edge of the gorge, feeling the pulses of madness and chaos emanating from the forest.
"Master, I draw near to you."
"You! What are you doing here?" said a very familiar voice.
"I'd remember that annoying voice from anywhere." growled Sarkhan, turning to face his old foe, Chandra. Her rage was evident, due to her signature flaming hair.
"You know this bum, Chandra?" asked Rainbow Dash, hovering just above her.
"Oh I know this guy alright! He tried to kill me before. It seems like tracing mana is difficult with all the chaos seeping out of that forest." she answered, never taking her eyes off Vol.
"Wha-? He tried to kill you? Oh it is ON!" Dash stood balanced somewhere between anger and excitement.
"Be warned, Rainbow Dash, this person is dangerous, but together we can stop this madman." said Chandra, feeling the same.
"As much as I want to kill the both of you now, my master beckons me." Sarkhan said, turning his back on the duo and walking away.
"Hey old timer! Where do you think your going?" said RD.
"I'm sorry, but your master will have to wait. You're coming with us for interrogation, even if we have to drag your half-dead body with us back to Canterlot." screamed Chandra.
Without turning around, Sarkhan said, "Let us not quarrel here. There'll be time for that soon enough."
"Not listening, eh? Maybe this will catch your attention. RD step back." Gathering mana from the gorge, Chandra chanted: "The best raw materials are in the fury of the dead: Geistflame!"
A ghostly wail filled the air as her fire manifested into a skull, striking Vol to the ground.
"Whoa! Is he, you know, dead?" asked the stunned pegasus.
"Far from it. 'Twas only a small spell, it'll take MUCH more then that to take him down." said Chandra, assuming a fighting stance."You really should flee now Rainb---".
Before Chandra could finish her sentence, Sarkhan retaliated with a burst of black and red lightning.
"Blightning!"
It hit Chandra square in the stomach, sending her flying. While in mid-air she casted another spell.
"lightning bolt!"
A burst of red came from the clouds and hit Sarkhan in the back, keeping him prone. It was really turning into a battle, that much Rainbow knew. She flew to where Chandra landed and asked,
"You alright there?" said RD with a worried look on her face.
"I'm fine, this is going to get ugly RD. You told me that you can move clouds?" said Chandra, trying to stand but still wearing a grin.
"Yeah, I can. Why?" said RD with a worried look on her face.
"I have plan. Gather as many clouds as you can near this gorge. Can you cover it quickly?" asked Chandra.
"No problem there. What-" Before RD could finish her sentence, Chandra quickly jumped between her and Sarkhan.
"Wall of Fire!"
Not a second too spare, flame filled the space between them and the Steel Hellkite. The wall bulged under the impact, but held. It screamed, the sound akin to scraping metal, but was denied by the wall.
"What in EQUESTRIA is that!" said RD with a mix of shock and fright on her face.
"A Hellkite. Now go! This wall can only hold one dragon!" screamed Chandra.
Dash saluted shakily and, without a second's delay, she was gone, leaving her signature rainbow trail.
"Heh! Now that I've got your attention, Sarkhan, it's time for some fun!" said Chandra with a grin on her face.
On the other side of the wall Sarkhan was with another person.
"Make more, Outcast! Till you have served your purpose!" demanded Sarkhan.
"As you wi--gwahhh!" Before the outcast could finish his reply he was pierced in the chest with a Flame Javelin.
"Nice shot, old man!" said Chandra, the glow fading from her hands.
"I never miss my target, child." said the Cunning Sparkmage.
"Now that Dragon Master is gone, it'll take a few more moments for Sarkhan to summon another dragon." said Chandra.
"Indeed..what about the one he already has?" said the Sparkmage.
"I will use your mana sparkmage." said Chandra with a blank look on her face.
"Do as you please child.."
Chandra sadly said,
"Infernal Plunge!"
The old sparkmage suddenly burst into flames, not showing any pain. Chandra collected power from the sparkmage in her left hand and from the gorge in her right. Melding them together, she shouted,
"Eat this, Dragon! Fireball!"
A huge fireball fell from the sky and hit the Hellkite, who let out a sharp scream but still stood. Seeing this Chandra cast another spell.
"Arc Trail!"
The metallic monstrosity burst in a shower of lightning, the excess spreading to Sarkhan, almost knocking him over once more.
"Gotcha!! Haha!" shouted Chandra with smile on her face, but the smile quickly faded together with the burning dragon.
As pieces fell away, a dark shadow with bright red eyes filled their place. Chandra swallowed nervously.
"Hehe, you show your true self, Sarkhan. Now we play." she said, a mix of excitement and fear in every word.
"Make haste, Rainbow Dash, for our sake..."
The Dragon-like shadow towered over the wall of flames and let out a roar that shook the very foundation of the gorge, starting avalanches along it's length.
RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWRRRRRRR!!
