When Rainbow Dash just about to punch the cat, she meets the sword's blade in front of her face. The blue pegasus quickly dodges the blade. She looks back at the black cat and doesn't see her there, then she feels the blade is stabbing through her heart. Rainbow Dash looks at the blade, and looks at the cat who wields it. Diana sighs and slashes through her body two times. 

Rainbow slowly kneels down and lies on the water. Everyone is stepping back at the violent cat. Diana throws the blue pegasus to the ground and spins the sword. "Like I said, I am not dealing with 'trash'. Battlefield is not for someone like this bird."

Pinkie Pie is scarce when seeing her friends are brutally knocked out. She shakes her body and tries to say. "I...If that is a normal sword, they... they will die you know?"

"Then take them and get out of here." Diana points at Sunset. "I won't let you interrupt her."

"Then tell me what are you going to do with her?" Twilight yells. "This is the Alicorn Amulet, you know."

"Want to know?" Diana throws the sword in the air. "Then defeat me if you want to know." Then she catches the sword and points at them

Twilight, Spike and others are receding to the ground. They start to check Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy to see if they are fine or not. After checking, they find that the pegasi have nothing that is dangerous to their life. 

Celestia looks at the black cat. "This cat... is too violent and dangerous."

"I know." Spike sighs. "But the thing that makes her like a beast is that sword of Sunset."

"You mean ... she doesn't wanna kill us?" Twilight taps Rainbow Dash. "But this can leave mental problems."

"Sorry Twilight but you can clean their memory, right?" Spike stands up. "I will fight with her again."

"Are you crazy?" Twilight pulls him back ." She literally killed you once."

"Then we will don't know what they do." Spike tosses Twilight aside. "If you don't want ot fight, you can get out of here with others."

Twilight grits her teeth and turns to her friends. "This place is dangerous. Applejack, Pinkie Pie, please carry them outside. I will follow him."

"Are... are you serious?" Applejack scrambles as Twilight turns around and walks to the black cat. Applejack tries to stop her. "Are you crazy? You can't do anything."

Celestia walks with the purple duo and faces the black cat. Applejack and others are silent, then take Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy to go outside. 

Diana smiles and spins the sword while Celestia takes out her halberd. They start to look at each other, then the trio and Diana start rushing with each other.



 
Sunset and the red dragon are still fighting each other. The dragon duo keeps fighting each other until they are tired. The red dragon becomes a black mist and covers around Sunset, then it starts to entice her. "How cute! You won't ever defeat me."

"Not only you get out of my head." 

Sunset starts to cast a wind spell but a black vine ties around her limbs and attracts her on the pedestal. Sunset tries to get off but it is too strong for her. 

The red dragon grins. "Once I can owe you, I will kill all of your friends, and become the queen of all magic."

"Say like you are that amulet." Sunset glares at the red dragon. "Is that the thing you always do to corrupt your prey?"

"You guess right." The red dragon puts on Sunset's chin. "I like strong prey. Like Simple or that azure mare."

"Then you are an artifact use for war." Sunset gives her a smirk. "How pathetic."

The red dragon punches Sunset's belly and turns away. Sunset coughs a little and rests in the bondage. The red dragon then turns to her. "I know. I should corrupt you by force.'

"Not only if you can do it." A male voice comes from behind as the red dragon jumps aside, then a punch is blown into her face. The figure starts stepping out from the shadow and the white dragon is revealed. Sunset is shocked when she sees that. The white dragon waves his claw. "Hello Sunset, you look so beautiful now."

"Whitty? How? You're dead already." Sunset is struggling to get out of the bond. "Why did you come back here?"

"Just a half of my soul is reincanationed. Heck, Diana and Amelia won't be happy when knowing this." Whitty looks at the red dragon.  "Stand up Amulet, we are not done here."

Amulet stands up, then charges at him. When she just comes close, the white dragon kicks her on the top, then throws a fireball and explodes in the mid-air, forcing Amulet to fly back to him. Don't want to make the red dragon stand up, the white dragon punches her hard. 

Sunset doesn't know what to say. The white dragon releases Sunset. Amulet rushes at them, the dragon duo comes to fight again. 





Amelia sees the black mist is taking over Sunset's body. The white cat touches the mist and closes her eyes. She sees that the orange dragon is fighting with her own clone with the familiar dragon for her. Amelia's paw is shining and touches Sunset's heart to hope that she will not be corrupted.

Diana is kicking purple alicorn away, then slaps the purple dragon to the wall. A shadow overlooks the black cat. Diana turns around and blocks Celestia's halberd. Surprised about the force, the black cat jumps back. 

Diana points the sword at Celestia and goes to charge at her. Suddenly, a giant ice turtle shell with spikes is spinning towards her. Diana slashes the turtle into half, then she is grabbed by Spike from behind. The purple dragon burns himself with the black cat. Diana throws the purple dragon away but a wave of winds comes to her. The black cat rises the ice spikes from the water but the waves cut through the spikes and come to her. 

Diana is going to fly but a hoof stops her flying. Twilight quickly throws the black cat to waves. Diana is hit by the wave. Additionally, Spike punches the cat into the deep of the water. 

The trio is breathing hard. Twilight tries to say. "Did... did we do it?"

"Don't lower your guard yet." Spike pats her back. "This is a cat of death. No.."

A sword comes from the water and slashes through his left claw. Spike feels paralyzed and he can't move his left claw. The sword is flying to Celestia. The white alicorn raises the halberd to block it but it disappears in the middle of air. Celestia is surprised, and she feels something stab into her chest. Looking down, she sees the sword is stabbing through her heart and Diana is grabbing it. Twilight is coming but she can't control her body. Diana then takes off the sword and beheads the white alicorn with it.

Celestia is falling down and lies on the water, Watching the black cat is standing in front of her. "One down. Two..." Diana turns around and sees an ice phoenix is coming to her. The black cat tries to slash but the phoenix grabs her sword by its beak and flies up. Diana breaks it by her paw. When she is going to flying back, many pillar of fires are surrounding her. Diana is trying to fly away but its too late. The big pillar of fire is rising up under her position. 

Spike is amazed with the fire pillar and looks at the purple alicorn. He sees Twilight is covered by a purple aura. Spike tries to touch the alicorn but he feels an electricity run through him. The purple dragon decides to punch her face. Twilight grasps and looks around. "Huh, where am I?"

"You... just lost your mind for a little." Spike looks at the smoke. "After you see Celestia is beheaded."

"WHAT!?" 

Twilight turns to her teacher and finds that nothing is wrong with Celestia. Twilight pokes her teacher as Celestia replies. "I'm fine, Twilight. It hurts a lot."

Twilight hugs her teacher. "I'm glad you are fine."

Diana steps out the fire pillar with a sword attract on her back. The black cat claps her paws as the purple duo is preparing to fight. Diana praises the purple duo. "Great job. At this rate, even Arkon should take attention at you two."

The purple duo shuddered when feeling a bigger mana around the black cat. Spike is trying to say. "What do you mean?"

The water is becoming red and the space around is becoming darker and darker. Twilight and Spike hold their claws and hooves but they can't control their body anymore. The purple duo starts fighting each other as they try to resist. Twilight is charging to Spike. "What's happening? Why I can't control my body."

"Blood..." Diana feels a force behind her and flies away. The black cat stands up and sees the purple dragon isn't there anymore. "What the...? How?" The black cat sees a magic circle on his chest. "Geez. You use 'Puppet control' on yourself. How annoying."

Diana snaps her fingers and Twilight blasts him. The purple alicorn tries to resist as Spike rushes at Diana. When he gets close, Diana dives into water to dodge the laser. Spike quickly freezes the water but many shadow hands grab him. Diana quickly slashes his limbs to stunt them, then she quickly slashes Twilight's limbs to make her unmoved. 

The black cat sighs in relief as she lands on Spike's chest, who is trying to move his limbs. The black cat levitates Twilight. "I will take you two as prizes. You make me have to fight seriously at the next level."

Spike tries to ask. "What... What have you done with Sunset? Why does she wear the Alicorn Amulet?" 

"Just give her a mission to destroy that artifact." Diana starts levitating the purple dragon too. "For the following question, my little sister and I can't destroy that artifact. I will show you how we work."

The purple duo sighs. Twilight glares at Spike as the purple dragon turns away. The trio walks inside the tree to see how Amelia is working."





Sunset stabs the red dragon by her claw. The red dragon is vanishing from her sight. The orange dragon sighs in relief. "Is this over?"

"Yes, the artifact will be destroyed soon." Whitty smiles. "You make a good one, Sunset."

"You two, Whitty." Sunset sits down. "So, what will happen when the Alicorn Amulet comes down?"

"I don't know, but we will wait." Whity puts his claw on Sunset's chin. "I can't wait for this."

Sunset slaps his claw away. "You should wait. Anyway, shall we go out?"

Whitty and Sunset start going out the hall. The orange dragon sees many glass window on the hall, each one is about an unicorn crafting the amulet. Sunset stops and sees the picture aboug a unicorn raises the amulet to the thunder dragons. 

Whitty asks. "What's wrong?"

"Just a little stunt." Sunset rubs her head. "I just don't know how this artifact just made for war."

"Because it is a weapon." Whitty smiles. "After the war, the Alicorn Amulet is lost. Many ponies had rumors about them. Some of them tolds that it is sealed. Some said that it was destroyed. "

"Ah, I see." Sunset takes a wooden pole from the tree. "Meaning after the war, this one lost and that unicorn is forever corrupted."

"That's right."

"Then can I ask you another question?"

"Sure."

Sunset points the wooden pole at Whitty. "Who are you?"
