True Harmony

Defeat?

Twilight and Dark Blitz were exhausted, they had been beating the pulp out of each other for just an hour, however, it felt like several days. Both looked awfully, Twilight was bleeding from her head and hooves. Her wings were battered as feathers fell out; her left wing was broken, the bone poking through her purple hide. Her mane and tail were in a dirty mess they were knotted up and some hair was missing. Dark Blitz was in the same boat as her yet she still managed to look regal, her necklace hung around her neck but some gems were broken. Her mane and tail weren’t as knotted as Twilights. Instead, they were a bit fluffy and frizzy in appearance and her wings had missing feathers; hers, however, weren’t broken. She looked like she was hardly beaten, like Twilight hardly injured her.

Twilight didn’t want to fight anymore her exhaustion seeping in, as her vision blurred, however, she couldn’t lose either. She didn’t know what to do, the mare swallowed hard and looked right into Dark Blitz’s eyes her determination renewed to keep fighting. Twilight mustered up some strength and rammed Dark Blitz, she flew back a few feet. Her body fell over but she spoke in between huffs,

“Do.. you...give...up.. yet?”

Dark blitz slowly getting back up replied,

“Asks the one who's a few inches away from death. Not till I know for sure you’re the one! You got the tree’s chest but you don’t seem like the one it was meant for. Besides the tree is still kicking.”

Twilight looked at her confusion written clearly on her face by that statement and before she could say anything Dark Blitz rammed into her pushing the other alicorn into a wall. Twilight has never felt such agony as vibrations send waves of pain throughout her body. She coughed up some blood and pleaded,

“I don’t know what you want...but this isn’t the way to get it Dark Blitz. You can try something else, try a different approach. Anything else that doesn’t doom all of Equestria...”

Dark Blitz simply walked over to Twilight, in a slow manner, who was in a heap lying near the Tree of Harmony. As Blitz was stumbling along the way she yelled,

“No! There is no other way, no different approach! But you aren’t what I want, you’re not right at all… You can’t even use all the elements power without your friends! So you must be erased! I need to clean the slate and start again from scratch.”

With tears welling up in her eyes, her voice cracking between words. Twilight didn’t understand what Dark Blitz meant, but she could tell something was wrong with Dark Blitz. She gazed at the Tree of Harmony as she pushed her thoughts about Dark Blitz away, she instead thought about her friends, who were cheering for her back in Canterlot. She could almost hear them saying don’t give up; Twilight come on you can beat her. Their voices rang in her head over and over again till she bite down hard on her lip then begrudgingly stumbles up. She had to go all out against the villains she faced. She had to do that and give Dark Blitz a piece of her mind. Twilight spoke anger invading her tone, a tone that was filled with determination,

“I don’t understand what you want from me, why you're doing all this, however, I can’t lose to you. I don’t care what you say about me or why you want me gone... But I want to help you and understand your reasons for attempting this. In order to save Equestria, my friends, the Princesses, Discord, and everyone living here. I have to stop you no matter what,... I will restore the Harmony!”

Twilight finished her speech as the tree lit up, the plunder vines that plagued it was instantly incinerated. The Elements ignited creating a rainbow light which fell upon Twilight, bestowing onto her, the Rainbow-charged form. Twilight looked surprised but happy that the tree felt her resolve, that even if her friends weren't with her the tree still gave her the rainbow power. She felt the magic flow inside; her whole body was healed now she looked upwards as her wings lifted her off the ground. Dark Blitz gazed upon Twilight and yelled,

“What?! No, you’re not the one I want... You’re not right you… are...”

Her eyes fell upon the blasted Tree of Harmony, her face contorted with confusion as it laced her voice,

“Why now? Is she really the one...?”

Dark Blitz returned her gaze to Twilight, she stopped thinking about why the tree gave her, it’s rainbow magic. She just gazed at Twilight, a smile started to emerge on her face as happiness washed over her. Twilight flew up and unleashed a powerful friendship magic rainbow down upon Drak Blitz.

When Twilight opened her eyes she looked around at where she was but only saw the blue starry world around her. It went on for miles as she looked around and realized she was in the world where Celestia had turned her into an alicorn. She was confused and thought to herself,

Why am I here again? Is this some kind of heaven? Am I dead?

She heard a voice, it sounded like,

“Twilight you prissy princess. Didn’t you have fun beating up the bad guy all on your own? Haha!”

Discord chuckled at her as he approached her. Twilight got to her hooves and looked at Discord, confusion was written all over her face but before she could ask any questions she heard a regal voice say,

“Discord, you need to leave you can come back later; after I speak to Princess Twilight Sparkle.”

Discord laughed and said,

“Fine party pooper but I’ll be hanging around.”

Twilight looked at him before he vanished in a flash of light, she looked in the direction of the voice she heard a few seconds ago. She saw Dark Blitz looking down smiling at her, however, she saw it was a warm smile, one Celestia would give her. Twilight noticed that Dark Blitz was no longer bruised and beaten but instead looked like royalty with her necklace around her neck and a crown upon her head. Her mane and tail were back to perfect order as well as her wings. On all four hooves she had silvery shoes, that looked like a three-point star leading up her leg with a brilliant sapphire on them, she appeared more regal than Celestia or Luna. Twilight backed away from Dark Blitz, she didn’t know what to do, she threw everything at her but she was back to pristine condition. Dark Blitz just looked at Twilight, as Twilight gawked at her until she noticed the look in her eye.

The venomous look was gone, like when they first meet it was replaced by a warm and loving appearance now. Twilight spoke confusion and hesitation in her voice

“Why are we here? What was your plan anyway…. And why do you look so so...”

Twilight's words failed her as Dark Blitz walked up to her and hugged her in a warm embrace.
