Daydream Sunset and Tirek were still gauging each other.
“You got this, Sunset!! Shouted Twilight. You can beat his ugly ass!!!”
Sombra and Stygian had recovered enough energy to be able to stand on their knees.
“Come on, man, said Sombra. You have to win this battle. You said nobody could beat you, it’s time to prove it”
Sunset decided to open the fight by blasting at Tirek a beam of magic, This one jumped in the air and avoided it. Just before he land, though, Sunset blasted him again, this time point blank, in the guts. Tirek felt on the ground, but recovered very fast from the hit.
“I felt this one, said the villain. Just a little bit. My turn, now!!”
He beamed Sunset multiple time, forcing her to dodge until she leave an opening for him to attack. That opening came pretty quickly, and allowed Tirek to grab her from behind. He jumped high in the air, then rocketed toward the ground at high speed. Just before he touched the floor, he released her and landed a powerful kick that sent Sunset flying away. In the sky, Sunny and Moon Breeze were trying desperately to gain the upper hand on each other.
“Alright, this is getting stupid, said Sunny Flame. Playtime’s over!”
“I agree, said Moon Breeze. It’s time i show you a glimpse of my true power!!”
Sunny Flame started increasing her body temperature at high levels while Moon Breeze was cooling her body down. The skin of Sunny crackled and became grey. The cracks were then filled of lava. Her body started to burn like the surface of the Sun and she radiated of an intense light. Light so bright, Sunset, Tirek and their friends were able to see it.
“Is this...Sunny?” asked Twilight.
“You got this, brother” said Sunset.
“I worked hard to achieve this technique, said Sunny, once her transformation was over. You might call it Flare Mode”
Moon Breeze’s body was envelopped of a badass ice armor doubled with a coat of pure shadow energy. Her skin was completely white and radiating a cold vapor.
“Your little transformation got nothing against my Black Ice Armor.” said Moon Breeze.
“We’ll see about that” said Sunny.
Sunset and Tirek started to fight again. They were both landing blows, and missing somes. Their speed was on pair and their magic power too. Moonlight looked at the fight with a smile.
“I guess i might have overestimated the power of her transformation, she thought. Way to go, Tirek, you might not be a stupid pile of muscle after all.”
Sunny used that moment of distraction to land a punch on Moon Breeze’s face. She fought back by grabbing her hairs. Flare mode Sunny yelled of pain and got mad. She spit hot burning lava in her face and punched her in the guts. Sunny’s fist cooled down quickly and Moon’s Black Ice Armor melted a little. Sunny reignited her fist by blowing at it and Moon Breeze repaired her armor.
“It seem that once again, we are tied” said Sunny, who suddenly returned back to normal.
Moon Breeze, seing that Sunny had turned back to normal, decided to remove her Black Ice Armor in sign of respect.
”This is what i thought, said Moon Breeze to herself. Our powers completely nullify each others. Even with the power boost on my side, it’s still not enough...”
Sunny pushed a button on her forearm and activated the super armor. Moon Breeze, not wanting to be left out, also activated her own super suit.
“Let’s see which one is better” said Moon Breeze.
The two charged at each other, fist first. The collision of their punches created a wave of energy that blasted the clouds away. They continued punching each other, without any of their attack landing succesfully, while creating more intense energy waves. Sunny fired a magic beam from her arms that Moon Breeze’s armor took without problem. This one replied with a dark magic beam of her own that had no effect on Sunny’s armor neither. But they didn’t stop there, Sunny turned her right arm into a cannon and started charging a devastating blow. Moon Breeze did the same, also charging a powerful attack. They both fired their projectile, but the one of Sunny went through the one of Moon Breeze and hit her. The impact caused a big explosion that illuminated the sky. The smoke dissipated, revealing that Moon Breeze’s armor had been damaged quite a bit. Sunny charged another attack, this time with two cannons.
“The next one will end this fight” she said.
“I am not done yet, said Moon Breeze, turning back into her male form and removing her armor. I am done playing. Time to get serious!!”
Sunny fired her projectiles at Moonlight, who grabbed them with his bare hands. He laughed and his body started consumming the darkness around him. His muscles expanded a lot and the surroundings temperature started lowering a lot. She also turned back into her male counterpart and stood on his guard. Frost looked at Sunlight, his eyes glowing black. Meanwhile, Sunset and Tirek were still duking it out. The shock of their attacks had caused a lot of damages to the fields, even destroying the abandonned installations of the place. Tirek was not showing any sign of weakness or exhaustion, while Sunset was starting to get tired.
”After everything i sent at him, she thought, He is not even phased.”
She looked in the sky and contacted Sunlight.
”Hey, brother, mind if we swapped opponents?” she asked
Sunlight received her telepatic message.
”Why not? He answered. But be on your guards with Moonlight”
”I felt his aura, said Sunset. He is pretty terrifying, But i think my magic could negate his magic. And be careful with Tirek, he absorbed the magic of Sombra and Stygian. So he is very powerful, so much that my magic barely phased him”
”Leave it to me, said Sunlight. I have unfinished business with him”
Sunlight swapped positions with his sister.
“I am your opponent, now, she said to Moonlight. Not too disappointed, i hope?”
“Not at all, said Moonlight. You were next on my list anyway, after Sunlight. Bring it, Sis!”
“Hey, knucklehead, said Sunlight to Tirek. You and me have a fight to finish”
“I didn’t forgot, said the villain. I hope you won’t deceive me like your sister.”
Sunlight charged at Tirek very fast and delivered a powerful punch in his guts, that brought the villain down to his knees
“I defend you to insult my dear sister, said Sunlight. You muscular jerk!”
Tirek got up, his hand on his belly.
“Alright, you hit hard” he said.
Sunlight uppercutted him and sent the bad guy flying a few seconds in the air. The hero teleported above him and dive-kicked him in the chest. Tirek was visibly confused.
“How? He asked. How can you hurt me, this armor can’t be that powerful...”
“Oh, didn’t i told you? He answered. My armor is now able to drain magic energy simply by being close or in direct contact with a source of magic. Your strenght and durability come from magic, and this armor was made to absorb it. To put it simply, hit me directly, and you lose magic power, i hit you, you lose magic power.”
“That’s impressive, said Tirek. But that mean that your armor have a limit to the amount of magic it can absorb.”
“True, said Sunlight. But there is more to it...”
He released the magic energy stocked in his armor in the form of fire, that he absorbed. He then used that boost of energy to trap Tirek in the ground using air and earth magic.
“I can use that stolen magic energy for my own benefits, he said. Girls, mind if i borrow some of yours?”
Twilight and her friends looked at each other and held their hands. They started glowing again and magic emanated from their bodies. Magic that Sunlight’s armor absorbed, converted into heat and that this one used to gain a huge amount of power. He removed his armor to wear his base superhero suit again. His friends were surprised.
“Wait, what? Asked Applejack. Why are you removing your armor?”
“I want this to be a fun fight, answered Sunlight. If things go bad, i can just summon my armor again”
“Right, said Twilight. If you need help, we are here...”
“You can jump in whenever you want, said Sunlight. Just don’t be reckless while fighting him.”
Rainbow Dash felt the eyes of everyone pointed at her.
“Okay, fine!! I will try to be careful!” she said.
Tirek got out of the ground and clapped his hand to create a shockwave. Sunlight blocked it by summoning a wall of earth in front of him and his friends.
“Rainbow Dash, said Sunlight. Ready to try the combo you talked me about sooner?”
“You know i am!” she answered.
She started running in circles around Tirek. Thanks to the upgrades Sunlight added on her suit to make it more aerodynamic, she was able to start a whirlwind around Tirek. Sunlight used his air magic to amplify the power of the whirlwind, turning it into a tornado. Tirek started floating in the air. Rainbow Dash left the tornado and Sunlight set it on fire.
“Blazing Spiral!!” said the both of them.
Sunlight looked at Rarity.
“Your turn, darling, he said to her. Time for our combo!!”
“I’m on it!!” she said, summoning a giant diamond in front of her, followed by smaller ones, all aligned to hit Tirek.
Sunlight charged a beam of light in his hand and fired it in the magic diamond. The crystal amplifyied the power of the magic ray and directed it to a second one, then another. The tornado disappeared and Tirek felt on his feet on the ground. He looked above him and realized the crystal above him, in the sky, The time he understood what was going to happen, it was too late.
“Radiant Beam!!” shouted Sunlight and Rarity, doing a cool pose
The magnifyied beam of light covered Tirek completely, and created a huge hole in the ground. The beam stopped after a couple of seconds. Tirek was barely able to stand on his feet.
“This is our time, girls!! Said Twilight. Let’s Rainbow laser him!!”
Tirek saw that the girls were charging their ultimate attack and rushed toward them.
“Oh no, you don’t!!” said Sunlight, using air, earth and nature magic to slow down the juggernaut.
“No!! He said. I won’t...I am not done yet!!”
“This is over, said Sunlight. You lost...”
Sunlight saw Stygian and Sombra and teleported them near Tirek. The mane 6 had finished charging the Rainbow Laser and released it on the 3 villains. Moonlight saw it happening from the sky.
“I guess my friends defeated your allies, said Sunset. Who had been able to bring Moonlight down to his knee. Don’t worry, you’ll be with them soon.”
Moonlight looked at Sunset, exhausted, angry and terrifyied. On the ground, Tirek, Sombra and Stygian were lying unconscious on the ground, totally depowered. Sunlight left them in the hands of his friends and came to join Sunset Shimmer.
“Your goons are out of commission, he said. And i see my sister was able to significantly weaken you...Good job, Sunset, i am proud of you!”
“Oh, thank you! She said, happy. Let’s finish this son of a bitch, shall we?”
“This is not over, said Moonlight, i still have a trump card!!”
He teleported near his goons, soon joined by the siblings. Moonlight looked at Chrysalis with a smile and pronounced a spell. Immediately, Chrysalis started yelling of pain. Her eyes turned red and a crazy smile appeared on her face. She transformed into a dragon and attacked Sunlight and the group.
“What are you doing, Chrysalis?! Asked Sunset. We are your friends!!”
“Not anymore, i am afraid, said Moonlight, who had freed and sent his allies in safety. She is mine, now!!”
“What have you done to her?!!” asked Sunlight.
“Don’t worry, said Moonlight. The effect of the spell is just temporary. But it will be just enough to allow me to retreat. You won this one, again, but next time, i will come back, even more powerful and with new allies.”
On these words, he disappeared. Sunlight turned his attention on Chrysalis, who Sunset and her friends had been able to contain. Sunset then used her magic to cure Chrysalis from the spell. After a few seconds, she succeeded to do so. Chrysalis eyes turned back to normal and felt unconscious afterward.
“That son of a bitch, said Sunset. He will pay for that...”
“Damn it, said Sunlight. If only i didn’t went on that space trip, i could have prevented her from meeting those 3 jerks. It’s my fault if Moonlight was able to escape. What a terrible friend i make”
“Sunlight... Said Sunset. This is not your fault, it’s mine. I was the one who was responsible of her safety and i did nothing to stop her from meeting those guys. I should have followed her...I knew it...”
Chrysalis opened her eyes, looked at Sunset and smiled.
“No, it is all my fault, Sunset, she said. I trusted those guys. If i was not so horny, i would have never followed them. And i paid the price of my carelessness...”
Sunlight took her in his arms.
“I will not leave you alone, never again” he said to her.
“Me neither!” said Sunset.
“You are so nice, both of you, said Chrysalis. And i promise i will never trust strangers again, and if in doubt, call for your help... Now, let’s get back home.”
The group walked together, in direction of Canterlot, leaving behind them a heavily damaged terrain. Full of holes. Meanwhile, Moonlight’s allies were recovering.
“We are sorry, boss, said Tirek. We failed you...”
Moonlight smiled.
“That’s fine. All of you did a great job...Don’t worry, next time, we’ll get them.”
“What’s your plan, now?” asked Sombra.
“Now, you need to rest, he said. In a couple of days, you should have recovered enough energy to move normally. Me, i will look for potential new allies to recruit. The world is vast. I will probably be gone for a week or 2. Sombra, i leave you in charge of the base in my absence. Sunlight will not find you here, so don’t worry. Do what you want, but do not leave this place until my return, okay?”
“Got it, said Sombra. And thank you for not abandonning us to them. I was wrong about you.”
“Pfft, what sort of leader would i be if i abandonned my team to the enemy, he said. I only saved you because i still have projects for you. Nothing else.”
“I think you like us, said Sombra. And you know what, we like you too, chief”
Moonlight left the room. Stygian was silent.
“You didn’t said anything since we arrived, Stygian, asked Sombra. Are you alright, bud?”
“I am fine, he said. I was just lost in my thoughts”
“Oh, okay, well, said Sombra. So...How do you feel about anime?”
“I am okay, said Tirek. Do any of you like Attack on Giants?”
“I would prefer Death Book” said Stygian.
“And i would love to continue Okome Go Kill” said Sombra.
“So, Dragan Ball it is, then” said Tirek.
