Turquoise and her team were now sitting in the front row of the stands to watch the next round of the Vital Tournament which was between Team SNST and a team from Shade Academy called team VOLT.

“ And now it’s time for the final round of the Team Matches which will be between from beacon Academy Team SNST which consists of Sunset Shimmer, Nori Pearl, Starlight Glimmer, and Twilight Sparkle,” Jaune said as sunset and her team entered the arena. “ And their opponent’s from Shade Academy in Vacuo Team VOLT which consists of Volt Breaker, Olena Frost, Lemon Zest, and Tyson Rockalanche. A bow with blonde hair wearing a green camo top with brown pants and boots wielding a Hecate II along with a girl with white hair and red eyes wearing an ice blue dress with silver armor, A girl with pink skin, long green and yellow hair, yellow eyes, Wearing a dark green dress with armor in certain places, and A bow with dark skin with short black hair wearing a simple red sleeveless top with shorts and his red gauntlets.

“ Something tells me we are in for a tough fight,” Sunset said.

“ You got that right we won’t lose to you that easily,” Volt said.

“ We shall see about that Nori said. Before the smack talk could continue the reels begin spinning until the one for team Volt’s side stopped on Forest which caused half of the field to become a Forest biome with grass and tall trees.

“ I was hoping we would get that one,” Volt said. As for the other reel, it stopped on Mountain which caused the other half to become a mountain biome which was a huge mountain with a simulated thundercloud and everything.

“ 3 2 1 begin,” Jaune said before the fighting began. Volt ran towards the forest while the others were holding Sunset and her team off. Volt used his semblance which allowed him to magnetize himself and anything he touches which allowed him to run up one of the trees and position himself to set up his position to snipe from. While the others were fighting Volt fired his first shot which Sunset noticed.

“ Retreat,” Sunset shouted before she and her team ran towards the mountain with the bullets bouncing off of Sunset’s Shield. The girls hid behind a rock to think of a plan.

“ What should we do?” Twilight asked. Sunset began thinking and had an idea.

“ Starlight think you can reach the top of the mountain?” Sunset asked.

“ You know it,” Starlight said.

“ Twilight think you can help me deal with the sniper?” Sunset asked.

“ Sure but how are you going to take down someone with a Hecate II?” Twilight asked.

“ Leave that to me,” Sunset said. While Starlight was climbing the mountain sunset and Twilight charged towards the Volt’s position. Despite the many shots, he fired Sunset and Twilight cut through all of them with their swords thanks to Twilight’s semblance Foresight which allows her to see predictions of things that will happen in the immediate future. Meanwhile, Nori was busy trying to fend off Tyson’s punches which were intensified by both his gauntlets with their blasting power and his semblance which allows him to turn to metal which reduced the recoil from the blasts. Despite Nori’s best efforts, she was sent towards the edge and fell out of bounds which sounded the buzzers.

“ And Nori Pearl is eliminated by ring out,” Nora said.

“ Nori,” Sunset shouted.

“ I’m your opponent now,” Volt said before leaping at Sunset with his Hecate II now a railgun that fired a barrage of shots which Sunset managed to block with her shield. Sunset unleashed her own Semblance which was polarity which allowed her to throw her spear with enough power to pin Volt to a tree which resulted in his aura being depleted close to 15% until Sunset delivered the final blow with a simple shield bash.

“ And Volt has been eliminated,” Jaune said. Meanwhile, with Starlight, she managed to reach the top of the mountain just in time for the thunder cloud to appear and charge up her weapon which was a railgun of her own. Twilight withdrew from the battle knowing what was going to happen next. Starlight fired three supercharged blasts that sent the remaining three members of Team VOLT crashing into the barrier and sliding down.

“ And Team SNST wins by knockout, Literally, Can someone make sure they are ok?” Nora said.





The next day The teams that made it to the doubles round gathered in the waiting area. The selected members for each team stayed while the others left for the stands to watch. The first round was Krystal Kurama and Leafa Sylvan of Team KSTL vs Orre Ironhide and Noir Shadows of Team SNOW.

“ Looking forward to a good match,” Krystal said.

“ Shut it you freak of nature,” Orre said.

“ Hey she was just trying to be nice there was no need for the attitude,” Leafa said.

“ We don’t like you Fuanus and we look forward to wiping you all out,” Noir said. Before any more talking would occur the four biomes for the match appeared which were Grassland, Urban, Forest, and Geyser.

“ 3 2 1 begin,” Nora said which prompted Orre to touch the geyser biome and absorb the rocky land, and turned into the exact material it was made from.

“ What kind of power do you have?” Krystal asked before being punched by Orre which reduced her aura a bit.

“ My semblance is called Absorption which allows me to absorb and transform my body into whatever it is I absorb and right now I am as solid as a rock,” Orre said before continuing his attack. Leafa pulled out her katana which created waves of energy that were sent towards Noir who didn’t feel anything as the waves went through her like she was made of gas.

“ Isn’t mass and matter amazing? basically, my semblance allows me to change the molecular components of my body to whatever I want and right now I’m gas so I’m untouchable,” Noir said. The fight went on and both Krystal and Leafa were getting worn out from fighting a boy that can absorb matter and a girl who can change the state of matter her body consists of. This went on until eventually, their aura went below 15%.

“ And by aura level, Team SNOW wins the match,” Jaune said.

“ Something tells me Turquoise and Rainbow will have their work cut out for them,” Sylvia said.

“ You may be right whichever one goes to the singles round will need to be careful,” Sapphire said. As they were talking the match-up for the next round was revealed to be Turquoise and Rainbow against Red and Clay from Mantle. Turquoise and Rainbow entered the arena raring to go.

“ You come from Atlas, care to tell me what we are dealing with?” Rainbow asked.

“ Seeing as their military and academy are rolled into one we can expect strict, militant fighters,” Turquoise said before a blur on a hoverboard zipped past her. “ Or whatever they are,”

“ You may have escaped the general but not us,” Clay said.

“ You can,t just kidnap our friend without a reason,” Rainbow said.

“ We were given our orders so let’s just fight,” Red said before the biomes for the fight which were Lava, Urban, Mountain, and Ice rose up.

“ 3 2 1 begin,” Jaune said before Clay brought out a sonic cannon which he was hoping would work on Turquoise but to his surprise was ineffective as she used her glyphs to push through the waves. Meanwhile, with Rainbow, she was fighting the combination of the speed of Red’s Hoverboard and the strength of his nun-chucks. Despite taking many hits Rainbow was able to fight back with her claws. Turquoise was building up the power of her glyphs and fired ice at Clay who blocked it with his cannon which also acted as a shield.

“ Too bad your attack just make some more noise,” Clay said which made Turquoise mad. After drawing her swords Turquoise used time dilation on herself to speed up her attacks which managed to land some good hits on clay before he unleashed his semblance which was called Armor Break where he managed to use the broken pieces of his skin as a barrage of sharp shards to damage Turquoise some more. Red and Rainbow were matching each other in speed until rainbow managed to damage Red’s Hoverboard which sent him plummeting into the ground with enough force to eliminate him.

“ Looks like Red has fallen, I hope he was wearing his helmet,” Nora said.

“ Now to help Turquoise,” Rainbow said as she Flew towards the lava field. Turquoise thought Clay as hard as she could until Rainbow distracted him. Turquoise used this chance to switch to bow mode and nailed Clay with a single shot that dropped his aura to 10% which eliminated him.

“ And with that impressive display of teamwork, Team TRQS makes it to the singles round,” Jaune said. Before Turquoise and rainbow could leave the arena Red and Clay stopped them.

“ You girls are awesome,” Red said.

“ Please be careful in the next round,” Clay said before the girls left.





Meanwhile back at Beacon, the Iron shackles made their move and a huge battle went on with many destroyed pennies and atlas shoulders littering the battlefield. Winter was using her power to fend off the enemy and was fighting a woman who was using the bodies of the fallen Atlassian shoulders as her puppets. Winter managed to generate multiple blades and managed to sever the strings and then pinned her opponent who was a masked woman to the ground and then handcuffed her.

“ Stella Strings by the authority of the Atlassian army I’m placing you under arrest,” Winter said as she handcuffed Stella with the Special Handcuffs used to shut down Aura.

“ You may have captured me but the Iron Shackles are not defeated yet. We still have our pawns in place and it’s only a matter of time before they strike,” Stella said while she was being hauled off along with any members of the Iron shackles that were also apprehended. While the clean-up was taking place Winter decided to check the Vault in case someone tried to open it.





Meanwhile, inside the elevator, Wayne and Snow were waiting patiently to reach the basement level. Snow got a look at her scroll and noticed that Stella was defeated.

“ Looks like Stella and those tin cans were beaten,” Snow said.

“ Should we go save her?” Wayne asked.

“ No need she provided us with a good distraction now let’s focus on getting that vault open,” Snow said as they reached the floor where the Vault was





Meanwhile back at Amity Coliseum, The eight people in the singles round gathered in front of the crowd and Turquoise was representing her team in this round. Rainbow flashed back to the discussion she and her team had earlier.

“ I’m should fight in this round,” Rainbow demanded.

“ No I stand a better chance than you do,” Turquoise said.

“ And what can you do all by yourself, Princess?” Rainbow asked.

“ Calm down you two,” Sylvia said.

“ Turquoise is our leader so what she saids goes and besides I agree with her,” Sapphire said.

“ And why is that?” Rainbow asked.

“ Based on what we observed the representative for Team SNOW will either be Orre who can absorb and become whatever he absorbs or Noir who can change the matter of her own body and possibly anything she touches. So fighting wise Turquoise stands the best chance of winning,” Sapphire said.

“ Fine but don’t blame me if we get eliminated,” Rainbow said. The first two combatants were chosen which meant Turquoise and the other five would have to go to the waiting area to observe. For this round, there were no biomes and the whole floor went down except for the center which was the ring for the singles round.





Meanwhile, in the hallway near the Teleporter Hub Krystal was lost in thought until a couple of thugs used a powerful sound grenade to incapacitate her and then kidnap her. When she woke up she found herself in the front of the vault.

“ Why isn’t it working we have the Fall Maiden don’t we,” Snow said in an angry tone.

“ Sorry but I’m not the fall Maiden I’m the Spring Maiden,” Krystal said.

“ What shall we do with her?” One of the men asked.

“ Hold on to her she may be of used to us once we head for Mistral,” Snow said.





Meanwhile back in Amity, the singles round went by fast and now it was down to Turquoise and Noir. before the match could start Winter rushed in and took the mic from Jaune.

“ Stop the match, As a result of disqualification Turquoise Schnee, is the winner,” Winter said.

“ Hold it Winter you don’t have any right to decide that,” Jaune said.

“ Noir Shadows is a spy planted by the Iron Shackles her team was responsible for the war down below,” Winter said before bringing up the footage of Snow and Wayne holding Krystal hostage in the vault.

“ Like Winter said Noir has been disqualified so Turquoise and Team TRQS win by default,” Nora said.

“ Well no use in hiding it now,” Noir said before attacking Turquoise who fought back as best as she could. In the vault, Krystal was also fighting back and managed to beat the goons but could not be both Wayne and Snow. Even with the maiden power, she could not win. As soon as she used everything she had she fell. Turquoise who was not faring any better could not keep up with Noir’s rapid change in matter and fell before her.

“ Now it’s time to take the maiden power from this abomination,” Snow said as she pulled out what looked like an extraction device. Before Snow could use it Red’s Hoverboard rammed into her and knocked the device off the side and into the abyss where it broke upon hitting the ground. Clay on the other hand tried to move Krystal only for her to stop him.

“ I’m afraid I won’t make it. Those two left some fatal wounds on me that even my aura could not block so please finish me,” Krystal pleaded before coughing up blood.

“ But what about the maiden power?” Clay asked.

“ I know who I’m giving it to,” Krystal said before whispering something in Clay’s ear. After hearing who it was Clay took the knife Krystal managed to snag from one of the guys who captured her and stabbed Krystal with it thus killing her.





In a white void, Krystal now stood waiting for her dearest friend to show up. Suddenly Turquoise appeared before her.

“ You made it,” Krystal said while smiling.

“ Where am I and how did I get here?” Turquoise asked confused.

“ Turquoise there is something I must tell you,” Krystal said before continuing. I was the Spring Maiden and now I’m dead.

“ Your what,” Turquoise said in shock.

“ I’m sorry for not telling you please don’t be mad,” Krystal said.

“ I can’t be mad I understand but please don’t die on us,” Turquoise pleaded.

“ It’s too late for me but before I go I have something for you,” Krystal said before grabbing Turquoise’s hands and transferring all of the Spring maiden’s power to her. “ You’re the Spring maiden now and just know I’m a part of you now. Krystal suddenly faded. Turquoise suddenly regained consciousness and was about to be killed until she unleashed a massive burst of power that sent Noir back. Turquoise was now standing with red energy coming out of her eyes indicating she was now a maiden.

“ I’m ending this right now,” Turquoise said before trapping Noir in ice and sending her crashing onto the ground and shattering her. Turquoise flew to her team and evacuated Amity along with everyone else.





Two days later the entire city of Vale was swarming with Iron Shackle goons intent on the purpose of collaring every Fuanus they could find. As for Snow, Orre, And Wayne, they escaped and returned to the HQ of the Iron shackles while Turquoise and her team hid inside Rose’s shop along with Winter and Weiss.

“ How long till they catch us?” Sylvia asked.

“ Don’t think like that we promise to keep you girls safe,” Weiss said.

“ So what’s the plan now?” Rainbow asked Turquoise hoping to get her to talk since she remained silent since they left Amity.

“ Leave her alone, she lost someone dear to her so let her grieve for as long as she needs to,” Winter said.

“ Listen I get that your sad Krystal is dead and possibly upset at Clay for finishing the job but your not the only one who lost someone, My friends are in great danger and who knows if they will be safe or not,” Rainbow said while grabbing Turquoise by her top.

“ Rainbow Dash stop hurting her. It’s not easy losing someone but we need to remain strong for them,” Sapphire said.

“ That’s right so as for the plan now we go to Haven Academy in Mistral and get the Relic of Knowledge before they do,” Winter said.

“ And where might that be?” Rainbow asked.

“ Inside a vault just like the one beneath Beacon,” Weiss said.

“ And how will be open it?” Sylvia asked.

“ With Turquoise obviously. The vaults were each designed to be open by a specific maiden. The Fall Maiden is needed for the one under Beacon and the one in haven is designed for the Spring Maiden,” Winter explained.

“ Sorry to interrupt the strategy meeting but I need to barrow Turquoise for a moment,” Rose said.

“ Sure,” Weiss said as Turquoise followed Rose into her sewing her. Rose began making measurements and then within ten minutes made an outfit similar to that of little red riding hood but in green and black and the most notable part was the black hood that was designed to hide Turquoise’s tail from view. After finishing up Rose showed Turquoise off to everyone. “ You almost look like Ruby when she was around your age.

“ Very funny mom,” Turquoise said not impressed.

“ I made what you requested Winter. One optical camouflage Cloak,” Rose said.

“ Thanks for the cloak but what’s with the rest of the ensemble?” Winter asked.

“ It’s to make the outfit less suspicious. Turquoise’s leather coat would have clashed with the cloak and made her stand out but I also designed the outfit with her abilities in mind so she can still fight,” Rose said.

“ I look like a trap,” Turquoise said.

“ I like it makes you look more feminine,” Sapphire said.

“ Listen I know it’s not your usual style but if those guys catch you they will not hesitate to control you and make you commit suicide,” Winter said.

“ Fine,” Turquoise said.

“ That’s not all I also made some new outfits for you three as well,” Rose said.

“ Thanks, sis but is it really necessary?” Sapphire asked.

“ I can’t let my sister go on a dangerous mission dressed like,” Rose said before having Sapphire change into a pink version of another of Weiss’s dresses with custom holsters for her fans and long white gloves. As for Rainbow, she was given a steampunk-style dress with goggles and a corset for binding her wings. Sylvia received an outfit similar to her late mom’s first outfit but in black instead of red with some dust weaved into it.

“ Now you four are ready,” Rose said.

“ Ok ladies enough of the fashion show time to call it a night for tomorrow we must acquire a boat to Mistral and head for Haven,” Winter said before everyone went to bed.
