Luna looked down at the fight from her bedroom window. She had been reading through every book in her room for any sort of cure. Luna had thought Sean had it in the bag until her sister transformed into her more powerful form; it was the form she had used to help fight off Nightmare Moon. Luna knew first-hand how powerful it was.
I must say, Celestia looks much more intimidating in this form. I bet I can still take her though this fire’s probably just for vanity.
“Um Celestia, your head is kind of on fire. You may want to get that checked by a doctor.”
Celestia only glared at me. Then I saw her horn catch fire then she shot a blast of fire at me. I jumped out of the way. I rolled behind a column. I guess she got a new attack. At least I have cover. Then I felt the ground shaking I looked down and suddenly a column of fire burst from the ground and enveloped me. It really was not pleasant. When it finally stopped my body was covered in burns. It’s times like this that I am so glad I regenerate.
“Oh no you don’t.” I looked up and saw Celestia flying over me. Before I could do anything the shot another blast of fire at me, it hit me before I could dodge. “I’m not going to let you heal.”
As I tried to pick myself up she shot another blast at me.
Hey moron.
What?
Dragon scales are immune to fire.
So?
Ugh, turn your skin into dragon scales!
Oh.
As I transformed my skin I felt the heat of another shot coming at me. When the shot hit me I had been able to change all of me but my legs. As they healed I was able to make them dragon scaled as well.
Alright, we’re back in business.
Juts go fight the pony.
I jumped at her and managed to tackle her out of the sky. When we hit the ground she kicked me in the stomach and sent me flying into a statue. The statue landed on me and broke my back. As I lifted it off me I looked at it. It was as statue of some weird serpentine monster that looked like a mash of a bunch of different creatures. I picked it up and threw it at Celestia, it hit her point blank and she went flying into a column.
I walked up to Celestia. Who looked to be unconscious on the ground, when I got within a few feet she opened her eyes and shot a white beam at me. It was strange because it was not made of fire. All the same I dodged most of it; part of it hit my right arm. As I got away I felt like my right arm was weaker and when I looked at it I saw that it was made of skin again. When I tried to transform it nothing happened.
“Does that arm feel a bit off?” I looked behind me to see Celestia walking up to me. “It should after all I just drained it of all its magic.”
“Huh?”
“Let me explain, you and I both know your powers are all reliant on magic.”
“Yeah.”
“Well what you don’t know is that magic is what keeps you alive too. If you go too long without it you’ll die”
“What? But I don’t drain magic consistently.”
“True, but I have always given you magic without you knowing, whether it’s from enchanting your food, or filling a room with
magic for you.”
“Can we get on with this?”
“Well, while you were overthrowing governments I was finding a spell to drain magic similar to how you can. What I’m going to do is drain you of all your magic and kill you that way.”
“Doubtful.” I ran at her and threw a punch at her face. Celestia wrapped her flaming mane around me and flipped me over her shoulder and smashed me into the ground. Then she shot a blast of that white beam into my face. This time I could feel the magic leaving me.
I rolled away from her and behind a wall. Well this isn’t going well, I felt my face and just like my arm it was skin again.
Luna had been watching from her room she didn’t know her sister had learned such a spell. There was one thing that was bothering her about Sean. When her sister had smashed through Sean at the start of their fight he had made a strangely deep crater and he had done it again just now when he was flipped and smashed into the ground. He seemed strangely heavy for his size, as if he weighed several tons as opposed to about 200 like he should be from his appearance.
She had a theory as to why he was so heavy but she needed to test it. Luna flew out her window and to the wall Sean was hiding behind. Her sister was firing shots at it as she walked closer and closer.
“Hey Sean.”
“Luna what are you doing here?”
“Testing a theory.” Luna then enveloped Sean in magic.
“Hey! What’s the big idea?” without responding Luna put him right in front of one of Celestia’s shots. It completely
enveloped him. When the shot had subsided she walked out from behind the wall to see Sean unconscious on the ground, his body was back to its fleshy look instead of scales.
Celestia laughed. “Thank you Luna, I knew you’d come around to help your sister.”
“Silly Celestia, I’m not here to help you, I’m just testing something. Look at the human.”
“What?”
Just as Luna had hoped Sean’s body was transforming. His hands were changing into the look of his dragon’s hands, his fingernails were sharpening, and he was growing.
“What’s going on? How is he transforming?”
“He’s not, his true form isn’t his human’s, it’s actually his dragon form.”
By now his body had changed into the full dragon form and he let out a low growl. Luna turned to look at him and sat up. Sadly for Luna there were two side effects of her plan. The more glaring one was that her sister was right in that he couldn’t survive without magic so at current he likely only had a few minutes of life before he died. The second was that she may have taken away some of his sentients though it meant she could order him around.
“Sean, attack.” The dragon let out a growl and leapt at Celestia. He brought his fist down on her. When he lifted his hand Celestia wasn’t there. The dragon looked behind him and swung his tail at her and knocked her out of the air.
As Celestia was picking herself up Sean shot a fireball at her. There was a large dust cloud and Celestia flew up into the sky. Sean roared and flew after her. Luna jumped out of the way as a dragon leg fell just next her. Looks like he was beginning to crumble from the lack of magic.
Once Celestia had reached a certain height she stopped and looked down at the dragon flying after her, she noticed that one of its legs was missing and so was half its tail. Celestia decided it was time to end this fight. She concentrated and channeled all her magic into a massive fire that was basically a mini sun. Then she launched it at him. Sean flew right into it, before Celestia could react a massive hand grabbed her and began to crush her.
Celestia noticed that his left arm was missing and part of his skeleton was showing in different parts of his body. The dragon tightened its grip until Celestia lost consciousness. Then Sean let go and they both started to fall to the ground
Luna looked up at the two bodies fly down at her. She noticed that Sean’s body was disintegrating just like it did in the dream world. When the two bodies hit the ground Luna ran to where her sister had landed. Celestia’s body had returned to her usual look.
Once she saw that Celestia was breathing she ran up to the crater Sean had made. It was considerably deeper. She looked into it to see that all that was left was a gem. Luna lifted it up to her and looked at it. Luna took some magic and charged it into the gem. After a moment it began to crack and then what looked like a small olive colored lizard crawled out of it.
“Sean?” she looked quizzically at lizard.
“What?” the lizard asked.
“What happened to you?”
“What do you mean?”
“Look at yourself.” The lizard looked at his legs and let out a gasp.
“How did this happen!?”
“I have no idea.”
“Oh come on!”
“Don’t worry, we’ll figure it out.”
“I think I have an idea.”
“In the meantime, you can just hang out on my back.”
“Oh boy.” Sean said rolling his reptilian eyes.
