Chapter 15-b: Main Six vs Mecha Six (Pt. 2)

Round 4: Rainbow Dash vs Metal Dash

Rainbow Dash; the rainbow maned pegasus who claims to be the fastest pony in Ponyville was now going up against her biggest challenge yet… herself! Metal Dash was one of the Mecha Six that was mostly like their organic selves. It was fast, agile, arrogant, and very competitive. But Rainbow Dash didn’t care; this is exactly how she wanted it. She felt that it would have been boring if she didn’t have a challenge. The sky roared as both of them repeatedly clashed against each other leaving a neon rainbow trail wherever they went. None of them seemed to be losing steam, and kept pressing on no matter how long their battle would take. Of course for Rainbow Dash, she knew that she couldn’t draw it out much for too long. She needed to find a way to end her opponent and now.
Rainbow Dash and Metal Dash were now at a standstill in the air glaring back at each other with intense expressions. Huge tension was created around them while each was wondering who was going to make the next move.
“I always wondered what it would be like to go against myself;” said Rainbow Dash with a smirk, “so I guess I should thank Solar Dusk for doing this. Now I can really go all out and show off my skills all while saving the world; sweet!”
“Don’t you get all cocky,” said Metal Dash, “You don’t think that I’m going to go easy on you, do you? I am you… only 20% cooler.”
“Hey! That’s my line, you metal copycat!”
“The name is Metal Dash, and I’m going to kick your sorry flank until you can no longer stand on your own four hooves!”
“Oh yeah? Not if I do it to you first!”
Rainbow Dash and her metal counterpart soon went at it again dashing towards each other and delivering constant blows against each other’s hooves. Punch after punch, kick after kick, dash after dash; these two seemed be evenly matched. But at some point, there was a quick opening for Metal Dash as it swooped in a fast uppercut to Rainbow’s chin. She went flying a bit back, but she caught herself and rubbed the bruise on her chin as she chuckled at her opponent.
“Nice right hook you did there. It really bruised my jaw a bit.”
“How are you not exhausted yet?!” Metal Dash exclaimed, “According to my results from the last time we faced off, you didn’t even last half this long!”
“Hey, you got the drop on us, remember?!” Rainbow Dash exclaimed back, “That was totally unfair! Now that we’re on even grounds, it's going to take a lot more than what you’ve done so far to take me down! And besides, you should know, right? You’re me, remember? You said so yourself. The only difference is… that I’m going to be the victor here!”
Metal Dash then used it eyes to scan over Rainbow’s body and stated, “Fat chance! Probability of your victory is 98%.”
“Oh… so I only have a 2% probability to rely on? I’ll take that chance.”
“You’re so annoying!” shouted Metal Dash feeling tired of Rainbow’s constant upbeat attitude.
“Thanks. The feeling is mutual.”
Without warning, Rainbow Dash caught Metal Dash off gurad by zipping right out of it's view and then immediately made a huge impact from above with her hoof sending Mecha Dash plummeting to the ground.
“Ooh; try to put some ice on that… or not! Ha!”
Having her sight on the enemy, Rainbow Dash almost didn’t notice that someone else was hurdling her way. She saw it at the corner of her eye and almost panicked as it got too close. “What the…”
She reached out and tumbled back in the air as she caught who was her friend, Fluttershy and her rabbit friend. It seemed that they were in a bit of a tizzy.
“Whoa! I got ya, Fluttershy! Oh, and you too, Angel.”
Fluttershy had her eyes closed. But once she opened them, she looked up and saw who caught her. “Rainbow Dash! Thank you so much for catching me and Angel like that.”
Angel was underneath Fluttershy’s arms and nodded at Rainbow Dash feeling relieved.
“No worries!” said Rainbow Dash, “Glad I could help out, Fluttershy. So what happened just now? Are you having a bit of trouble with your robotic double?”
Fluttershy quickly got out of Rainbow’s hold and was trying to play it cool. “Well… m-maybe a little. But don’t worry, I was just caught off guard a little. I have this under control. You just focus on your enemy, okay?”
“Sure thing! Go get ‘em, Fluttershy!”
After Fluttershy went off, Rainbow Dash was watching her carefully. She knew of her pegasus friend and could tell that she was struggling a bit. But she knew better to doubt her.
“I sure hope she’ll be okay with all of this fighting and stuff. It's not really her strong suit.”
Suddenly from right behind her, “Maybe you should stop worrying about your friends… and worry more about yourself!”
Metal Dash didn’t attack; however, Rainbow Dash quickly backed away to see her opponent looking back at her in an irritated manner. “Forget that! I would gladly risk my life to protect my friends!”
“Ooh… what a wonderful and intriguing request,” Metal Dash responded, “I accept!”
Rainbow Dash suddenly witnessed as Metal Dash’s wings expanded revealing more thrusters to increase its flight speed. It was then gone as if it transported somewhere; although, it didn’t. It came by knocking Rainbow Dash over, but she could barely see it coming. It then came a few more rounds, and Rainbow Dash was getting overwhelmed.
“Ugh! Is it just me… WHOA… or has that double of mine gotten a whole lot faster?”
She was able to dodge a few times, but it wasn’t going to be enough. Eventually, Rainbow Dash took off in a direction as fast as she could to try to throw her enemy off. “Maybe if I go fast enough myself, it won’t get to me as easily!”
Unfortunately, Metal Dash flew up right beside her as it said in a menacing tone, “Guess again.”
It quickly grabbed Rainbow Dash and flew her up higher in the air, “Going up…” Then it turned on a dime and began hurdling towards the ground, “and going down!”
Rainbow Dash couldn’t get herself loose as Metal Dash was spinning her around in it's hold. Then with one swing, it sent Rainbow Dash crashing down onto the ground. As Metal Dash looked down from above, it saw that Rainbow Dash was still struggling to get back up from that blow; but it was going to make sure that she stayed down.
“You were quite a challenge, but it was obvious to whom would stand on top. And you know why? It's because of your stupid loyalty to your friends! I hate to say it, but you are actually pretty hardcore… just like me. However, your so called loyalty has made you weak. You would rather protect your friends more than protecting yourself. So the real question is… who is going to protect you?!”
Metal Dash suddenly made a dive bomb towards Rainbow Dash who was trying to move out of the way, but she knew that she wouldn’t be able to in time. But suddenly, something wonderful happened as the Element around her neck glowed brightly and repelled Metal Dash away. Because of it's power, Rainbow Dash found the strength to stand again; and she was impressed of what she had just witnessed.
“AWESOME!!! Looks like my Element saved me just in the nick of time.”
Metal Dash soon got its bearings together after being pushed back so suddenly, but it wasn’t planning on failing. “Don’t think that it will save a second time! If you think I was fast before, you’ve seen nothing.”
“You know what… you talk too much,” said Rainbow Dash as she stretched her wings, “At least what comes out of my mouth isn’t boring to hear!”
“What?!”
“Listen to you talking your trash talk about me being weak because I put my friends’ lives over mine. But that’s where you’re wrong! My loyalty to my friends is what makes me strong; and it makes me way more cooler than you will ever be… faker!”
“Faker?!” Metal Dash shouted in anger, “When I’m done with you, you’ll be the only faker here!”
Metal Dash extended its wings once again and went at Rainbow Dash at full throttle. But when it got to her, Rainbow Dash had suddenly vanished at the last minute. Metal Dash was suddenly looking around wondering where she went. “What the… how did she…”
But suddenly, Metal Dash looked right beside it to see Rainbow Dash grinning as she said, “Peek-a-boo!”
Metal Dash quickly swung it's hoof, but missed as Rainbow Dash disappeared again. Rainbow Dash then appeared behind it blowing a raspberry; and Metal Dash swung at her again...and missed. This was done a dozen more times, and yet Metal Dash didn’t seem to land a single hit.
“This is impossible. There’s no way she can be faster than me!”
Suddenly, Rainbow Dash appeared below Metal Dash and kicked it upward into the air and then immediately went off after her. “If you think that’s fast… then you’ve seen nothing yet!”
Metal Dash couldn’t comprehend what was going on as Rainbow Dash grabbed ahold of it's body and stated, “Can you do a little something called a sonic rainboom?” But Metal Dash compiled by extending its wings again and zooming around at high speeds trying to knock Rainbow Dash off. However, it proved to be no use as the pegasus kept her tight grip. “Guess you can’t. Maybe you’re not as cool as I thought you were!”
Rainbow Dash’s element began to shine bright again showing off it's power. She took Metal Dash a bit higher and then began descending to the ground all while rapidly building up speed. Metal Dash tried to throw her trajectory off, but the power from Rainbow’s element was too great.
“I will not fail my master!” Metal Dash protested loudly, “I am far more cooler than you!”
“Too bad!” shouted Rainbow Dash as her speed increased, “I agree that you are pretty cool, but there’s only room for one awesome rainbow maned pegasus pony in Equestria; and that pony… is me!”
Now that she was at the peak of her speed, Rainbow Dash went all out and released a powerful rainboom that upon impact completely obliterated her opponent; and it's metal pieces rained down amongst the ground. Rainbow Dash was victorious as she thought she would be; and after crushing the jewel that was extracted, there was only one left for her to say.
“That fight was way past cool! Huh… I kinda like the sound of that. It could really catch on one day!”
------------------------------

Round 5: Fluttershy vs Mecha Shy

The Element of Kindness… the timid pegasus… the kindest pony in Ponyville. All of these terms were used to describe the pink maned, yellow pegasus named Fluttershy. Just like her new friend, Cream from Mobius, she wasn’t one that was always up to fighting. She would avoid it as much as she could. But she would always break down into doing it anyway if it meant helping her friends if they were ever in danger. But today, they were going to need her help more than ever as the fate of two worlds were at stake. She was now in one-on-one combat against her metal counterpart, Mecha Shy… who was anything but kind. Angel was there with her for moral support; but at the same time he was slightly terrified. However, he refused to leave Fluttershy’s side.
Unfortunately, unlike the rest of her friends, Fluttershy spent most of the time avoiding and and dodging her opponent and running away as much as she could. She figured that if she waited out long enough, one of her friends would be done and could help her.. But all that running was starting to wear Fluttershy out; and eventually she caught a painful headbutt on the side of her body. She landed on all four of her hooves, but she could feel the stinging sensation on her side. She kept her eyes on her Robin double as it landed on the ground and was tilting it's head as it questioned…
“What is wrong with you? Why do you not fight back? If you keep going on like this, your organic body is going to give out eventually. Plus, that little love tap you call a kick that you did to me earlier… was that really the best you got? I suddenly feel insulted that I was even created from your DNA. You’re pathetic.”
“Well you don’t have to be mean about it,” said Fluttershy with a slight scowl, “But then again you’re suppose to be evil; so… I guess it's to be expected.”
Angel was chattering at her protesting that the enemy was right; that they needed to do more than being a coward and running away.
“You’re right, Angel. I can’t keep running away like this and rely on my friends to come and help me.. I have to fight my own battles. I have to take that thing out! She’s the complete opposite of me; and knowing myself, that’s not a good thing.”
“Talking to your little bunny friend, are you?” said Mecha Shy, “I’m afraid that he won’t do you any good. He’s nothing but a little nuisance in the way of our fight.”
Angel suddenly had a ‘oh no you didn’t’ expression on his face as he was glaring at Mecha Shy.
“Hey! Angel is not a nuisance!” Flutters hybrid protested, “He’s my friend, and he’s here to back me up!”
“Back you up? What’s he going to do; boop my nose with his soft little paws and smack me with a carrot?”
Suddenly, Mecha Shy was hit upside its head with a carrot. It didn't do any damage, but it definitely made Mecha Shy irritated. “Hey!”
Angel was grinning and began laughing at Mecha Shy’s reaction.
“Um… where did you have that carrot, Angel?” Fluttershy questioned.
Mecha Shy’s eyes suddenly turned red as it bellowed out, “Now you’ve done it, little bunny. I’m going to turn you into a fur blanket!”
I spread it's wings and made a beeline thrust towards Angel who was on top of Fluttershy’s head. He freaked out a bit as he hid behind the mare’s mane; but Fluttershy stood her ground as she tried to defend him. “Don’t you dare put a hoof on him!”
She threw her hoof forward harder than she had before and ended up hitting her enemy in the face and knocking it back. Fluttershy gasped after feeling the impact on her hoof and saw how Mecha Shy was feeling the small dent on it cheek.
“Wow… I actually felt that one. You should feel so proud of yourself.”
“Um… th-thank you?” said Fluttershy hesitantly.
Mecha Shy then went up and grabbed Fluttershy by the scruff of her neck and said, “However… let’s see how you feel this one!”
Mecha Shy then threw Fluttershy with all it's might sending her flying through the air uncontrollably. Fluttershy yelled as she held on tightly to Angel to protect him. But before long, she was caught by someone that she almost ran into; and that someone said, “Whoa! I got ya, Fluttershy! And you too, Angel.”
Fluttershy recognized the voice that she heard. When she opened her eyes and looked up, she saw her rainbow mane pegasus friend looking down at her to see if she was okay. “Rainbow Dash! Thank you so much for catching me and Angel like that.”
“No worries!” Rainbow Dash responded, “Glad I could help out, Fluttershy. So what happened just now? Are you having a bit of trouble with your robotic double?”
Fluttershy quickly got out of Rainbow’s hold and was trying to play it cool. “Well… m-maybe a little. But don’t worry, I was just caught off guard a little. I have this under control. You just focus on your enemy, okay?”
“Sure thing! Go get ‘em, Fluttershy!”
After Fluttershy flew off, she sighed wondering if she had revealed any signs to Rainbow Dash of how much she really was struggling.
“Oh, Angel, I sure hope Rainbow Dash isn’t worried about me. It could really hinder her in taking her opponent out. I need to do this on my own… I have to.”
“You should’ve asked for your friend’s help,” said Mecha Shy suddenly as it came back into Fluttershy’s view, “You really suck at this fighting thing. But then again if you did, then it would be two-on-two; and it wouldn’t make much of a difference.”
“I… I-I-I don’t need my friends to stop you!” said Fluttershy hesitantly, “I helped beat your master once before, so I could take you on no problem!”
Mecha Shy chuckled and taunted at her as it said, “Well then… why don’t you prove it… or are you just a big fat chicken?”
Angel looked at Fluttershy and told her if she was going to do something. Fluttershy then looked back at her opponent as she beat her hooves together. She then gathered all of her willpower and went forward yelling at the top of her lungs. She then lashed out punching Mecha Shy’s face multiple times; and Mecha Shy was just letting her do it. Plus for great measure, Angel hopped forward and knocked Mecha Shy back with his hind legs. After Angel landed back on Fluttershy’s back, the yellow mare was catching her breath as she said…
“Did… that do it?”
Mecha Shy then turned it's head back towards them with it's eyes glowing red. And just like Meal Dash, it's wings suddenly extended showing off extra boosters. Angel’s ears suddenly lowered, and Fluttershy drew back a bit as her voice trembled, “Uh oh.”
“Not bad,” Mecha Shy stated, “but now it's my turn.”
In an instant before Fluttershy could even blink, Mecha Shy thrust headfirst into Fluttershy’s gut knocking the wind out of her. It then disappeared and then headbutted the injured mare from behind. Fluttershy was hanging in there, but she couldn’t keep up with Mecha Shy’s massive speed. Angel was worried for Fluttershy and wanted to help out somehow. However, he suddenly saw Mecha Shy coming towards them again and tried to warn her. But by the time Fluttershy looked up, Mecha Shy was already too close as it knocked Fluttershy down into the ground and causing Angel to tumble off of her. Both of them laid down on the ground as Mecha Shy descended back down and looked over at Fluttershy who was slightly whimpering while trying to get up.
“Just as I thought. You’re all bark and no bite. I don’t know how you gave my master a hard time before. Is the Element of Kindness really a reliable asset to help defend this world? What a disappointment.”
Mecha Shy then reached out with a metal claw and got a hold of Angel in its grasp. Fluttershy saw and tried to get back up, but she felt too beaten down do anything. She felt helpless.
“Looks like you’re down for the count,” said Mecha Shy with a slight chuckle. But then it held up Angel in front of it as it said, “But before I take care of you, perhaps I should pay your little rabbit friend here back for that thwack against my head.”
“No… don’t…” said Fluttershy in a weak tone.
Mecha Shy suddenly released the trembling bunny from it's grabber hook. But once he hit the ground and was about to run back towards Fluttershy, Mecha Shy planted its hoof down on his fluffy tail holding him in place. “Let's see… should I break a few bones,” It then placed it's other hoof right on top of Angel’s body pushing him against the ground, “or perhaps I could just flatten you all together.”
Mecha Shy chuckled in amusement as watched the little white rabbit squeal and struggle underneath the pressure of it's hoof. But suddenly, it lifted it's head when it felt a source of power begin to rise. Then unexpectedly, it heard Fluttershy shout out in anger...
“Don’t… you dare… hurt a hair… ON MY FRIEND!!!”
Mecha Shy quickly turned around and saw Fluttershy on all four of her hooves again. However, her element was shining more brightly than ever before as it gave of a strong aura that surrounded her body. Mecha Shy’s body suddenly froze without much explanation as of why; but it couldn’t believe what it was seeing.
“What’s this?”
Then suddenly without warning, Fluttershy spread her wings and dashed at Mecha Shy faster than it could calculate. Fluttershy gave it the same head ramming treatment as she sent it flying and tumbling far away from Angel. Almost immediately after that, the aura around Fluttershy died down; and she immediately went to Angel to check on him.
“Are you okay, Angel? Are you still in one piece?”
Angel looked up and saw that his life saved. He jumped up and tighten his arms around Fluttershy’s neck as he sighed with relief. Fluttershy giggled and was proud to see that her bunny friend was okay. “Good. That's a relief. I hope that meanie didn’t bruise any part on you.”
Once Mecha Shy came back, some parts of it's body was fractured and malfunctioning. Unfortunately, it's wing thrusters were still intact as it tucked them in before it tumbled onto the ground.
“What the heck was that all about?!” Mecha Shy exclaimed, “Where did all of that rage come from?! Your Element… the huge aura from it's glowing is so light… and tender; and it's making me sick.”
Fluttershy glared back at her enemy and responded, , “Serves you right for trying to hurt a poor, defenseless little animal! You give the meaning of my cutiemark a bad name! You're not kind, you don’t care for others, and you’re not very enjoyable to talk to. You’re just...just… downright mean!”
“So what! Did you expect me to be exactly like you?! Don’t be ridiculous! Besides, what are you going to do now? The Element of Kindness is not seriously going to fight me now, are you? You probably don’t have the guts to finish me; which would make sense since you are nothing but a weak, pathetic excuse of a fighter.”
Fluttershy knew that she didn't like to fight, but she knew what was at stake. She was sick and tired of being insulted and being called weak. She grabbed Angel and calmly placed him down as she told him, “Angel… wait here.”
Fluttershy then shot one of her major stare expression at Mecha Shy as she was slowly approaching it. Her Element continued to illuminate with light and was growing stronger with every step she took.
“Oh, so you are going to fight after all,” said Mecha Shy with a sarcastic smirk, “That’s good. You definitely have the stare down.” Mecha Shy extended its wings once again and was about to go full throttle, “But let's see how well you can back it up with action!”
Mecha Shy dashed at Fluttershy again at full speed, but then vanished when it got close. Fluttershy wasn’t worried at all though. She just waited and waited while trusting her gut to guessing where her enemy would strike from. Then soon enough, Fluttershy suddenly turned around at a certain angle as she held her fore hooves out and caught a hold of Mecha Shy as it velocity force pushed her across the ground. Mecha Shy was in complete shock once they were at a standstill, “What the…”
“Let me go! How are you holding on like that?! You’re nothing but a pathetic weakling!”
“I may be a kind and gentle pony that really hates to fight;” said Fluttershy as she stared into the robot’s eyes, “but when it comes down to it… I am far from weak.”
Fluttershy then kept her hold on Mecha Shy as she soared into the sky and then descended back down at a surprisingly speed. Her Element was keeping Mecha Shy from breaking loose; and it was shouting in distraught as it got closer and closer to the ground.
“No no no no no no no no nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”
Fluttershy then made contact to the ground having the power behind her speed to crush Mecha Shy into many pieces that flew around her. After that was done, she had won; and she felt that it couldn’t be over sooner. Angel suddenly saw the dark gem that was inside Mecha Shy drop down onto the ground; and he glared at intensely before hopping up and down on it crushing it into dust.
As he stood there proudly, Fluttershy chuckled as she patted him on his head and told him, “Good job, Angel. I guess you’re pretty strong too, aren’t you?”
-------------------------

Final Round: Twilight Sparkle vs Titanium Twilight

Twilight Sparkle, the Princess of Friendship always secretly feared that she would face her inner demons one day; but she never saw something like this coming. Going up against a titanium robot double of herself could possibly have been one of the last things that she would end up doing; but here she was facing her robotic clone in a powerful magic battle. Her opponent had the same spells, same tricks and the same strategic mind that she had; and every major blow that they made against each other was almost equal in comparison. Spike was with her for support; but mostly to avoid the chaos that was on the ground. But he knew he could handle it since he’s flown with Twilight most of his life.
Twilight wasn’t getting anywhere in her fight. It was like both her and her opponent knew what the other was going to do. The only difference though was that Twilight Sparkle was flesh and blood and was becoming more tiresome as time went on. She needed to figure out how to end battle and soon.
“This is… impossible. It's one thing fighting somepony who looks like me and fights like me; but this clone of mine… I predict her moves, and it can predict mines. It's crazy!”
“The only thing that would make this perfect is if there was a robotic me supporting your clone!” shouted Spike, “Wouldn’t that be awesome?”
Twilight slightly glared at him as she stated, “Perhaps it would… if they weren’t trying to help Solar Dusk to take over our world!”
“Yeah yeah, of course. I’m just saying that it would be kinda cool to fight my own robotic clone. But maybe it's for the best. The world can handle two of… this.”
Titanium Twilight was getting a bit impatient and refused to wait on it's opponent any longer. “Are the two of you done wasting your time talking to each other? If so, then I suggest that you both surrender. No matter how hard you try, you won't be able to keep up with me for long.”
“Heh, says you,” said Twilight hesitantly smiling, “I’m hardly breaking a sweat.”
But the enemy wasn’t fooled. “You are quoting a false statement. By the flapping movement of your wings, and the look in your eyes, I can confirm that your stamina is starting to waver.”
“Dang it,” said Twilight, “How could it know that?”
“Well, she is you;” said Spike, “and you are pretty observant.”
“That doesn't really help you know.”
Titanium Twilight then continued it's evil monologue. “Before long, your flesh will be your downfall, and you will be too exhausted to fight anymore. But seeing that I'm not organic like you, I will not be weaken; and I'll eventually overpower you. Probability of said scenario is 100%. No other outcomes will be possible.”
“That’s trash talk!” Spike protested, “There's no way that probability is true… c-could it?”
“I don't know, Spike,” said Twilight, “However, my clone is right. If we keep going on like this, sooner or later my body is going to tire out; not to mention my brain. That's why I need to figure out how to defeat it now… and soon.”
Spike just groaned, “Well I sure hope that the others are having this much fun with their clones.”
Titanium Twilight was ready to fulfill its Master’s orders or take down Twilight with force; and it was hoping for the alternative. “Time is ticking by. Are you going to surrender yourself to Master Solar Dusk… or are we going to keep doing this same routine until your stamina runs out of steam? The choice is yours; but I would recommend the obvious choice.”
“Maybe it is true that I am an organic being… just like the rest of my friends,” said Twilight staring back at her enemy, “and none of us are perfect. But machines aren’t any different. You may think you’re all that just because you run on electronics and magic, but you’re far from perfect yourself. After all, all machines have some kind flaw; and somehow, I’m going to find yours.”
“Hold the presses!”said Spike with a little smirk, “Did ‘the’ Twilight Sparkle just admit that she’s not perfect? Never thought I see the day.”
“Oh be quiet, Spike.”
With it's eyes glowing with anticipation, Titanium Twilight was quite glad that it got it's true wish. “So you choose to continue this little tussle, do you? Fine with me. Let's see how long you can last.”
Twilight got ready as her enemy spread it's wings and charged at her again. The same similar ‘bout began again. Just as Titanium Twilight predicted, they were predicting each other’s moves once again. Even though Twilight changed her tactics every once in awhile, her moves and spells kept being countered by the enemy.
After a while, Titanium Twilight flew at a standstill while Twilight herself was strongly panting trying to catch her breath. Spike tried to lend his support as he was shouting, “Hang in there, Twilight! You can do it! You’ll find it's weakness; you just have to!”
“If it... does have a weakness, it sure isn’t making it easy for me to find out.”
“This is getting tiresome,” said Titanium Twilight, “I figured that I would get more of a challenge out of you, but I guess I was wrong. You’re just too predictable.”
Spike suddenly stood up on top of Twilight facing the enemy and said, “Oh yeah? Do you find this predictable?!”
He took a deep breath and shot out multiple little fireballs that smacked against Titanium Twilight. However, it hardly reacted as it looked at it's body and then glared back at the dragon feeling slightly annoyed.
“What was that suppose to do exactly?” Twilight whispered.
“Heh, well… I hoping that it would do something at least.”
“That was pointless, little dragon,” said Titanium Twilight, “Your little fire pebbles hardly dented my finish.”
“Hey! They were way bigger than pebbles!” Spike protested, “If I wanted to, I could completely melt your circuits; ya stupid bucket of bolts!”
Titanium Twilight’s eyes suddenly glowed brighter as it was glaring more at Spike, “What did you call me, you little runt?”
“Uh-oh.”
“Your battle is with me!” said Twilight holding up her hoof, “You’re not going to touch him!”
The enemy then chuckled as it told her, “I don’t have to.”
It was then that Twilight felt a weird sensation on her back. When she looked behind, she was in shock that Spike was suddenly gone. “Huh? Spike? Spike, where did you go?!”
“Um, over here.”
Much to Twilight's dismay, she looked back over in front of her only to see Spike being held up beside the enemy with it's magic.
“H-hey, about that last comment…” said Spike nervously, “I didn’t really mean it. You’re not stupid. In fact, you look really cool.”
“Silence!” Titanium Twilight shouted, “I have no interest in your kiss-up comments.”
“Let him go!” said Twilight, “I’m your opponent! No need to harm him just because he has a big mouth sometimes!”
“What?”
“I’ve grown tired of this little repeating routine of a fight. You want your dragon back? Then back down and swear your allegiance to the new ruler of Equestria. If you don’t, who knows what I will do this runt; but it won’t be pretty.”
“O-o-oh sweet Celestia,” Spike shuddered.
“Seriously?” Twilight questioned, “You’re seriously going to do this? You do know that’s… cheating, right?”
“Affirmative. I am going through with my master’s orders; and I will use any method necessary to make sure that it is completed. So what’s your decision now?”
Twilight would never endanger her friends in anyway she could avoid; and now was no different. So, she knew that there was one thing to do. She lowered her magic and said, “Okay, fine. You win. I surrender. Just don’t hurt Spike.”
“Twilight, stop! You don’t have to do that!” Spike shouted, “I’m the one who put myself in this position! If you surrender, Solar Dusk is going to win!”
“I’m sorry, Spike. But… I need to worry about my friends’ well-being before my own. If I didn’t… what kind of Princess of Friendship would I be?”
“Heh, Princess of Friendship,” Titanium Twilight chuckled, “What does that even mean? From what I recall your worthless element stands for magic, not friendship. True magic doesn't come from loving others, having parties and making friends. Magic come from power; pure power. Power is everything, and it is our master’s power that going to control you and this entire world.”
Twilight almost shuddered hearing her opponent say that. To her, it was like seeing herself if she did choose magic over friendship and went dark. But of course she believed that she wasn't like that, and she never would be.
“You’re wrong,” said Twilight as she glared back at her opponent, “My element’s meaning is magic, but it's the friendship I have with my friends that gives it strength. It's what gives all of our Elements of Harmony strength! Our friendship have carried us through many situations and saved this world countless times! I don't know how, but I am going to beat you, and then… your master is next!”
“Yeah!” Spike shouted, “Go, Twilight! Preach, sister!”
“Wow,” said Titanium Twilight sarcastically, “That was one of the sappiest and most pathetic speeches I have ever heard. But no matter what you say, it changes nothing. Your elements used to protect this world; but soon, they will be used to bring this world to it's knees.”
Twilight then showed a little smirk as she said, “I highly doubt that, but you can always hope for the best.”
“Enough!” Titanium Twilight shouted as it held up one of Solar Dusk’s gem collars, “Are you ready to swear your allegiance to the master and give up your very will once more?”
“Actually, I have a different idea in mind,” said Twilight suddenly as she noticed how close Spike was to the enemy, “Now, Spike!”
Spike suddenly whipped out his claws and then swiped them across one of the enemy’s eyes. It screamed out in distraught as sparks flew out from the socket and caused it to lose it's hold on the collar and Spike. Twilight quickly grabbed Spike and then blasted the collar before gaining her distance from the enemy again.
“Oh yeah! That felt so good!” shouted Spike in satisfaction, “Heh, I kinda underestimated these bad boys.”
Titanium Twilight suddenly glared back at them with it's eyes still shorting out and said, “What was that?! How were you able to pull off that lucky shot?!”
“Knowing myself… if I was evil,” said Twilight, “I kinda figured that you would try to capture Spike and use him to make me surrender. So I took into account of that possible situation and knew exactly what to do.”
“How dare you. How was I not able to predict that?!”
“Because you weren't able to. You only seemed to know the usual tactics that I would do. So I had to come up with something totally new; something that no one would expect from me. How's that for predictable?”
Completely enraged by what happened, Titanium Twilight used it's magic to create a gigantic magical pentagram over it. It was it's trump card, and even Twilight was impressed and was staring at it awe.
“Whoa, even I can’t do that; but I don’t know if I want to.”
“I gave you a chance to surrender… but now you drived my patience long enough. I will annihilate you along with your little sidekick! Lets see your so-called friendship save you now when you’re all alone.”
“Oh boy,” said Spike in a nervous tone seeing the enemy pentagram charging up.
However, Twilight didn't back down. She was willing to protect her friends until the end. “Go ahead and do what you want. But as long as my friends believe in me, I am never alone!”
Suddenly right on cue, Twilight’s element began to shine very bright giving off a strong aura of power that surrounded her and Spike.
“Twilight, your element!” Spike stated.
Twilight could feel her strength return, and her magic felt stronger than it did before. “What did I tell ya. Looks like your assumption was wrong.”
Without hesitation, Titanium Twilight released a giant beam from the pentagram that was headed straight for Twilight.
“Look out!” shouted Spike.
But there was need to worry. Twilight’s element brought up a huge barrier that countered the beam and dissipated the enemy’s gigantic spell. Titanium Twilight drew back from being countered and was more irritated than ever.
“Impossible! Where did this sudden burst of power come from?!”
“Dare I need to say it?” said Twilight, “I’m sure you already know what, but you just don’t want to admit it.”
With its trump card failed, Titanium Twilight resorted to it's usual tactics as it charged at Twilight at full speed.
“Hang on to something, Spike!”
“Like I haven’t alread-yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!”
Twilight took off too; and before long, both combatants were in the same routine again. However this time around, Twilight’s magic was stronger and proved to be effective against her enemy who was struggling to fight back against her power. It knew that it was losing and didn’t like the thought of it at all.
When they were at a stand still again, Titanium Twilight grumbled at Twilight saying, “Let me guess, you’re going to try and finish me off with some kind of powerful beam or something?”
“Heh, you read my mind,” said Twilight with a smirk.
And that’s exactly what she did. She summoned a powerful spell that fired from her horn. At the last minute, Titanium Twilight brought up it's own shield that was holding off Twilight’s spell and felt that it wasn’t going down too easy.
“Y-you… won’t win! Master Solar Dusk… will reign supreme… and rule over all of Equestria!”
As Twilight continued the spell, Spike looked at the enemy and stated, “Yep; you keep telling yourself that.”
Titanium Twilight suddenly felt it's shield cracking; and then, the beam broke through and then engulf the entire inside of the shield. It resulted in a giant boom that caused the shield to explode as well as the robot enemy. Spike suddenly looked up and saw the dark gem falling towards them and caught it in his claws. He then crushed it and blew it away in the wind.
“Well… that wasn’t too tough, was it?” said Twilight with an exhausted sigh.
“Are you kidding?!” Spike exclaimed, “Did you witness everything that robot did?! It was crazy; especially that gigantic pentagram thing! But as always, the power of magic… and friendship has prevailed once again!”
Twilight then looked down over at the huge battle taking place as well as Solar Dusk and Eggman continuing to observe with Celestia and Luna still by their side. She knew that this was far from over.
“I’m afraid there’s no time to celebrate yet, Spike. We still have to help the others so we figure out a way to break Celestia and Luna from Solar Dusk’s spell.”
“Ugh, way to ruin the positive vibes of our recent victory,” Spike groaned, “Do you honestly think there’s a way to stop him without a chaos emerald?”
“I don’t know; but there’s only one way to find out.”
