2 days since the main six got their new forms, Ruins of Eggmanland (No POV)
There was silence all around in the deserted amusement park. No sound was heard at all. Until a blast of white energy came shooting through the ruins, only to stopped by a sudden hand appearing, but glowing with yellow energy.
"Very good Lady Rarity, you may just be a little better than me, if only a little" Lightning laughed, to which Rarity appeared from the mist that the Amusement Park was producing, wearing a smirk similar to his.
"Well if you're so sure, why don't we finish this little dance?" Rarity said, her smirk never leaving her face. At once both Lightning and Rarity, speed towards each other and both fists that they had drawn had collided, only for a giant explosion to occur, both stand up tall, never having their serious looks leave their faces.
They turned around, looking with smiles of happiness appearing on their face. "That was a close one Rarity, you nearly had me on that one, good show!" Lightning said.
"So I'm nearly at your limit then?" Rarity hopefully asked.
"No, I'd have to say your around 10% of my limit, sorry about lying, but it was the only way to get you to train" Lightning said, scratching the back of his head, expecting Rarity to lose her mind, as he had told her that she was around 90% his limit last time they fought.
"I'm fine with that handsome, you didn't need to lie, we've come to that stage that we can trust each other I assume" Rarity calmly replied.
Flashback to 2 days ago
"Well it seems like I'll be training you Rarity, how do you feel about that, Rarity?" Lighting said, only to find that Rarity had vanished, luckily he could feel her kinetic energy, starting to move away from him, in an eastward direction. He followed the energy signal till he eventually looked to find Rarity's familiar white fur color. "Rarity! What are you doing?" He asked to which she looked at him with a rapid shake of the head.
"I won't be as good as you, EVER, so I figure why even have me around right?" She replied.
"Out of all of Sonic's clones I'm the least experienced in my chaos abilities, so you may get close to my limit very easily, heck you may even be better than me" Lightning replied, as he showed her the 'full extent' of his power, and blasted the building and it crumbled just like when Crimson struck it, but a lot slower. "That's all I can really muster, I mean you could probably do better than that" Lightning said modestly.
"Ok fine I'll do it as long as you go easy on me, " Rarity said.
"What are you talking about? Any easier and it would be like a mosquito bite" Lightning replied.
"Yeah right, give me your best shot!" Rarity ordered.
"Uh yes!" He replied as he charged towards her, suppressing his energy almost till it didn't exist. Only to be caught off guard by her catching his arms and kneeing him in the gut and kicking him away. She was surprised, as she thought that he would've taken her out, but she was surprisingly holding her own against him.
"Come on take this seriously!" Rarity yelled.
"I am!" He lied.
End of Flashback
"Hehe, sorry I just thought if you thought I was on your same level you'd have no problem" Lightning replied, narrowly avoiding a punch directed to him but Rainbow Dash, who then kept trying to hit him blasted him away with a blue energy blast.
"She shoots, she scores!" Rainbow yelled as she put her hands up to make a goal post.
"Ugh, great now I've got Sonic 2.0 to deal with, " Lightning said, holding his hands outwards and started spinning them rapidly, in the direction of the two girls, both of them being blown away by the sudden strong whirl of winds they were hit by.
Shouldn't be too hard to take them both on, Lightning thought as they started charging down, both looking to fight him again. Both girls slammed into the ground, shaking and cracking the very foundations of their battleground. Lightning was used to this feeling, after all, he knew how powerful Chaos was if truly pushed to its limit.
"Oh, you're in for it now Light!" Rainbow stated.
"Bring it on if you really think you can take me" Lightning replied, getting ready to block their attacks. He expertly dodged their attempts to land a hit, but then grabbed Rainbow's leg as she unraveled from her ball form and threw her away, leaving Rarity face to face with Lightning.
Though not for long as both girls moved away from Lightning and linked arms before, in unison started yelling "Speeding Chaos Slasher!" Their bodies lit up blue and white and in an instant they were transformed into a combined twister of navy and white, spinning towards Lightning, he could feel the tug of their winds, and immediately put his hands out in a way as though he was going to catch a ball.
The combined attack struck Lightning's hands with such force that the building started crumbling at the energy this clash was creating. Lightning's face started to show strain as the girls attack actually started to cause a bit of trouble, but he upped the juice to around 35% and in an instance their attack started to slow in speed, to which they also started to turn up their power to keep their attack going.
Lightning could feel the girls' rise in power which caused his hands to start to lose grip, but he held on, then turning his power to around 45% and their attack started slowing in speed, to the point where they had reached their limit, they started dropping their energy, and became visible to Lightning, though since he could process things faster than light he even sees them in their twister attack.
Lightning fell to the ground, slightly exhausted and started smirking at the girls. "Well done, you nearly got to half my max that time, just a little more practice and you'll be better than me in no time" He praised, only to be knocked down by Applejack now in a dog form, as she had been transformed yesterday into someone relevant to her.
"I reckon we already got ya beat Light" Applejack mocked, as Lightning was down on the ground.
"You didn't beat Crimson, Jade or Tang yet so I…" Lightning began, only to be crushed by the aforementioned hedgehogs, leaving them humiliated and on the floor in a daze.
"You were saying sugar?" Applejack questioned.
Lightning got up, alongside his brothers and then retorted "We were going easy on you, if we went 100% we'd be scared of hurting you since we care about you… I-I mean we wouldn't want you to give up because of our awesomeness! Yeah that's it"
"Is that a challenge?" Rainbow said, getting vexed at Lightning ego display.
"Ok let's put this into perspective for you, let's have all of you try and take down Crimson at 100% or a little less for everyone besides Applejack since she's the strongest out of all of you" Jade proposed.
"This should be a fun butt-kicking" Rainbow cockily replied.
"For me" Crimson added.
"Oh, it is on now!" Rainbow said as she sped towards Crimson fist ready to collide with his body. Crimson put out his pinkie finger and nonchalantly stopped her attack, yawning to show his disinterest in her. To which she bared her teeth at him, and started attacking more furiously, only for Crimson to dodged every single one of her attacks.
"Stand still!" She yelled, to which Crimson granted her request by standing still and taking a big hit directly to his face, and he didn't even flinch, didn't turn her way, he just kept still, before staring directly at her, to see her shocked face.
"That almost kind of hurt" Crimson simply stated, hitting Rainbow Dash and forcing her back with just a jab at her, and even though it looked as though it hadn't done that much damage she fell to the ground unconscious. The rest of her friends looked on at Crimson as he didn't even look tired. Pretty soon all of the Mane 5 were now attacking Crimson and Crimson effortlessly just simply dodged all of their attacks and within a few minutes of fighting all of the Mane 6 were on the ground unconscious. Crimson still looked as though he hadn't even broken a sweat.
"Hm serves them right for getting cocky" Crimson stated, walking over to his brothers.
"They'd never beat us because we're the Chaos Crew" Tang replied.
"I like Chaos Kids better, I guess if Tails figures out his connection and soon we get more people gaining a link to Chaos energy then I guess we could call ourselves the Chaos Crew" Lightning added.
Over in the distance they could see two figures, both hedgehogs, looking directly at them, with what would appear to be a malevolent intent. "Chaos Control" One of the figures stated and immediately they were gone, only to appear in front of the group.
"I had sensed a large concentration of Chaos Energy, I suppose you would be the source?" A black fur hedgehog with red streaks adorning his quills questioned
"Are you friend or foe?" the white fur hedgehog, who was standing beside the black hedgehog asked.
"How do you not recognize us Silver? We're the ones that saved you from Eggman, alongside Sonic, remember Shadow?" Crimson replied.
"Hm, yes I seem to remember you being his clones correct?" Shadow replied, wanting to see if he had guessed right.
"Yes, we're clones of the original Sonic, I am Lightning, he's Crimson, that's Jade and this guy's called Tang" Lightning explained pointing to each clone as he said their names.
"I can see you can control Chaos Energy" Shadow examined.
"Yes, we are more in tune with our Chaos Powers, since we're made of the stuff" Crimson confirmed.
"You use moves I've never seen before, could you teach some?" Shadow asked.
"Yay now we can have a Chaos Crew!" Tang yelled.
"Ugh, no just no" Lightning groaned.
"You have powers of Psychokinesis right?" Crimson asked Silver.
"Yes, I don't need Chaos Powers, since I have it, I'm wondering how it would stack up against someone like you" Silver replied
"Bring it on," Crimson said, as he readied himself for battle, looking at Silver, his cocky grin never leaving his face.
