	At that moment, all their theories were proven wrong; the creature they thought they had destroyed walked once again.  Suddenly, a Royal Guard ran into the throne room, exhausted.
“You majesty!  News from Cloudsdale.  Reports say something is attacking the Wonderbolts Academy!” he quickly spoke.
The Princesses turned to one another.  They have fallen for another trap by the Master of Intelligence, himself.  Quickly, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna issued a squad to assist.  Twilight, the Archivist, Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, and Amethyst Crystal quickly turned to one another.
“Let’s go.” Twilight said.
Princess Celestia and Princess Luna informed Twilight that they, along with Princess Cadance and Shining Armor will remain at the Castle to keep it under guard from Khaoios.  Agreeing, they left for the Wonderbolts Academy.  Back on the coastline, StoneColt quickly flew back to the group. 
“We need to go, NOW!” he ordered.
“What happened?” Fluttershy and New Horizon asked.
StoneColt turned.
“Khaoios is back.” He replied, flying as fast as he could to the Academy.  
At the Wonderbolt Academy, bright orange lightning bolts rained down, striking almost everything in its path.  Explosions from Khaoios power, shook the ground like a massive earthquake.  The Wonderbolts maneuvered lightning bolts unleashed by the Bronco-Titan, however they were no match for Khaoios’ power.  Captain Spitfire and her squad flew back and forth, like planes trying to take down a giant monster.  Only thing was, this was a smart “monster” in her opinion.  Every move they made, he would only dodge it and hit them where they would least expect it.  Their weak spots.  Dropping like flies, Khaoios continued his rampage, walking on the runway.
“You pegasi are pathetic.  Do you really think your incredible agility can beat me?  An alicorn capable of predicting your next moves.  Huh…I pity your intelligence.” Khaoios boasted.
Soarin, who managed to appear from the top, hit Khaoios, but only realized he made a mistake.  Khaoios turned and snared.
“Let me show you true speed, wretch.” Khaoios said, as he flew up high in the sky, then quickly slammed on to the ground.  
The shockwave cracked the asphalt, knocking ponies off their hooves.  They knew they were in complete disarray.  Soarin, who happened to be on Khaoios’ back, was thrown off and knocked out temporarily.  Witnessing the devastation Khaoios was already causing Spitfire and Fleetfoot raced at full speed, only to be knocked away by Khaoios powerful wings.  Suddenly, out of nowhere, a Pegasus appeared catching Spitfire and Fleetfoot.  
“Gotcha!” The Pegasus said.
Spitfire looked up and noticed it was the same Pegasus that saved her in Manehattan.  Lowering them down, he continued to pull in other downed Pegasus ponies.  Curious, she got up and walked over to him.
“…Thanks for saving us…saving me.  Who are you?” Spitfire asked.
“Names Thunderwing, ma’am.” Thunderwing said.
Fleetfoot was thankful as well and assisted him in bringing the Pegasus recruits to safety.  Immediately, they remember Soarin was on the ground and called to him.  Thunderwing turned.
“Let me distract the alicorn and move him away from Soarin, while you retrieve him.” He said.
Both Spitfire and Fleetfoot looked at him, focusing on a way to pull the alicorn away.  Suddenly, he flew toward Khaoios and sideswiped his face.  Now that he was distracted, Spitfire and Fleetfoot moved in and dragged their partner off the field.  Khaoios turned.
“You!” he snared.
“Bingo!” he said, flying as fast as he could.  
Disappearing from Khaoios sight, Thunderwing flew back to the other Pegasus ponies.  Landing nearby Spitfire and Fleetfoot, they aided Soarin only to see him struggling to his hooves.  
“Ugh…what happened?” He asked.
“The alicorn hit you.” Fleetfoot said.
“At least you’re alright, thanks to this Pegasus’ bravery.” Spitfire commented.
Thunderwing smiled.  Suddenly, another squad of pegasus ponies appeared and tried to hold off Khaoios, yet they too could not defeat the alicorn.  As explosions continued, a pegasus stood on top of a building.  When the light of the moon was covered by the clouds, General 	StoneColt appeared.
“Picking on ponies again, you worthless piece of gutter trash?” StoneColt insulted Khaoios.
Khaoios growled.
“You!” he said prowling towards him.
Serving as a distraction, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash and the other pegasus ponies arrived at the academy.  Trying to ready position, glass shattered onto the ground, making Khaoios turn realizing he was once again distracted.  Yet, StoneColt noticed, he was merely faking his distractions.  As he unleashed his magic, Twilight and the Archivist appeared, using their magic to merge into one, only hitting Khaoios on his broadside.  
“You AGAIN!” he said.
Immediately, Khaoios returned fire blasting a water tower.  It crashed down landing on Princess Twilight and the Archivist.  Totally unexpected, StoneColt called out to all ponies to take cover.  As the ponies took cover avoiding the attack, they all fought bravely to defend the academy from the alicorn.  Now that everything was a mess, Voyager turned.
“What now, General?” he asked.
StoneColt couldn’t analyze the situation.  He could only feel surprised by Khaoios sudden return and thus realized he has become much more powerful than before, depending on both quick thinking and full force.    
As for Moonraker, trying to be a hero charged at Khaoios.
Rainbow Dash called to him, but as she did, he got knocked away by Khaoios’ wing.  
“Pathetic, little pony.  Trying to be a hero.” Khaoios said.
StoneColt and New Horizon called to Moonraker, but it was no good.  Trying to save their brother, Twilight broke out of the wreckage and tried to fly towards him, but her wings made her immobile.  
“Say good bye to your…” Khaoios was interrupted after being hit by a powerful beam, sending him into a building, landing on his back.  
Suddenly a white alicorn slammed onto the ground, standing on top of Moonraker.  Amazed by its power, the pegasi could not get a glimpse of it, until the moon shined on the alicorn.  Khaoios got up and looked at his opponent.  Twilight’s eyes suddenly widened.
“Is that…” she paused.
“…Paguseus.” StoneColt said proudly.
Ironwing Interstellar Paguseus arrived just in time, saving his son from Khaoios.
