Luna did her best to read the note she was quickly sent from the guards. She read it once, twice, even three times, but the words remained on the paper. She couldn't believe this. Twilight was nearly killed within three hits, how is this even possible? Not only that, but a citizen named Derpy was taken by them as well. "Guards, you sure this is what Tia wanted me to read?" She asked, her eyes not leaving the paper.
"Yes, your highness. She said it was an urgent message from the Elements of Harmony, and they wish that you get down to Ponyville as fast as you can. Celestia has already flown there, and they are waiting for you." The Guard answered. Luna gently set the paper down with her magic, and went to the balcony. "Make sure no pony breaks in, we need as many guards as possible." She said, before flying away.
The Guard left the room, to see most guards have already went down. He couldn't believe it. All guards were just carelessly beaten down without remorse. He looked around, to see a green human standing on the far right. He was breathing rather hard, and his sword landed to the ground. He turned, to see the guard shaking in fear. "Not so fast, monster." They heard. They both turned to see the Captain with his mighty sword.
Shining Armor
Raises his Blade!
"Captain!!" The Guard yelled with a smile. Shining Armor walked up a few inches, forming a battle stance. "From order of the Princess, your are under Canterlot arrest!" He said. The green human glared, before pointing his sword at the pony and taunting him. Shining glared back, and ran towards him.
"Now I see it!!"
Luna arrived at Twilight's Castle with the Elements of Harmony and Celestia. "Princess Luna!" She heard. She looked over to see Twilight in a wheel chair, being pushed by Fluttershy. "So glad you made it!"
"Equestria is being threaten, Twilight. Their would be no reason to ignore it." She said sternly.
"So, what? We just going to sit back and watch those monsters beat us down?" Rainbow asked.
"Of course not. We must use the Elements of Harmony in order to stop them. This may be our only chance." Celestia said.
"Er...that's the problem, Princess." Twilight said, before being pushed to the round table. "The Elements of Harmony aren't their normal color. In fact, their grey!"
"Twi', Ah know your horrible with jokes, but this is serious. We need to get rid of 'em now." Applejack countered, but Twilight waved her hoofs at her. "I AM serious! They don't work. I had Spike watch the Elements of Harmony, but he hasn't replied back yet. All I know is that their grey!"
"Um...where is he, by the way?" Fluttershy asked, before covering her mouth. "S-sorry!!"
"No need. Please, tell us where he is." Luna said. Twilight pointed to the room above. Luna walked in front of the door, only to be knocked back by it. Everyone gasped, and looked at the opened door to see Spike. His fist clenched in fury, and he looked like he was ready to punch God in the face. "What the heck, Spike?! Who's side are you one?!" Rainbow yelled at him.
"I want those gems, Rainbow. And I'm not afraid to hurt you. Step back, unless you want to fight." Spike said as he spewed venom from his mouth.
Spike
Learns the Scrolls!
He got into a battle stance, and green fire flamed up on his body, not even flinching. "Think you can hurt me? You got another thing coming, ponies."
"Wait, gems? Spike, your all in over yer head." Applejack said, trotting towards him. "Now, apolo-"
Before she could finish, Spike upper cutted her jaw, and send a kick towards her stomach. She flew back, hitting the wall with pain. "Th-that's not Spike." Pinkie said, her hair deflating a little.
"Spike, we won't hurt you, but you need to calm down." Celestia said, but Luna held up a wing.
"He is obviously not himself. I'll handle this." Luna said, taking a step forward. The ponies begged not to step in, but Luna continued anyways. "I challenge thee to a duel. Last pony standing wins." She said, her wings flaring up.
Luna
Lights up the night!
"Your loss." Spike said with a demonic smile. They rushed at each other with great speed, but Spike came out victorious. Landing a fist hard to the neck sent Luna flying. She landed with ease, however, and charged once again. She quickly turned to buck him, but Spike gave a roll underneath her, and gave a solid uppercut to the jaw. She staggered back, and Spike breathed in. He blew green fire at her, but Luna took flight before it took damage. She landed behind him and gave a buck to the back. He was sent flying towards the wall, but to catch himself in the nick of time. He slid down, his smile not leaving. "That all you got?" Spike asked, now walking towards her. "Your moves are weak and pathetic. You won't be able to over power me, Princess."
He ran up to the side of the wall by Luna, then giving a powerful punch to the cheek. She flew out Twilight's castle and to the outside of Ponyville. Spike followed without haste, leaving the ponies behind. "Come on! Let's help Luna!" Twilight said. They nodded and gave chase.
When Luna landed, she landed on her hoofs, unbalanced and nauseated. Spike ran up, smiling. "He's so strong." Luna said to herself. "I won't be able to take him down strategy wise. That was my fault. I may need to take him down with brute force."
Spike finally caught up, but stop a few feet from her. "Ready for Round 2, Princess?"
