Chapter 14: Battle for Clouds-dale (Part 1)

(Previously on the last chapter)

Magnus then looked to the slowly approaching Cloudsdale and breathed in slowly. 'I dedicate this to you, Kuchiki Byakuya' Then he closed his eyes for a moment while his body was covered in an aura and exhaled while speaking one word that reverberated throughout the skies for all to hear.

"BAN...KAI..."

(Present)

That one word moved throughout the skies and spread chills down in everyponies' spines.

Magnus then opened his glowing eyes and grasped the blades on the wheelbarrows with his Telekinesis and made them float and spread them out near him while pointing them towards Cloudsdale.

His eyes then started crackling with purple electricity and covered his body with it while he started his sentence.

"Chire..."

The purple electricity now started spreading towards the floating blades and covered them with his purple electricity but for some reason, the blades turned pink instead of purple

After the blades were all covered and crackling with purplish-pink electricity, he tilted his body and pointed his palm towards Cloudsdale and finished his sentence.

SENBONZAKURA KAGEYOSHI......

(Right before his attack started)

(Down at Canterlot)

Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie, Rarity, and others were down at Canterlot preparing to receive the injured, they weren't naive to expect that such a large scale operation wouldn't have any injuries or deaths. So they were all busily moving around medical supplies and tents, then suddenly, a gasp was heard from a wide-eyed mare pointing her finger to the sky.

They all followed where her finger pointed and also couldn't help but widen their eyes too at the sight.

On the far-away sky, blades, all crackling with purplish-pink lightning and pointed towards the approaching Cloudsdale, and weirdly enough, the pink blades looked like......

"Cherry Blossoms..." Rarity and Fluttershy muttered at the same time while they watched the dangerous yet beautiful piece of art while remembering the time they went to Neighpon.

Then suddenly, a gentle but stern voice was carried throughout Canterlot which sent shivers down the spines of ponies within.

SENBONZAKURA KAGEYOSHI......

(Back to Magnus)

With those words, all the swords shot out, ripping through the air, and headed towards Cloudsdale with respective sonic-booms.

For a moment it was silent until they heard multiple shrill shrieks from Cloudsdale.

SHREEEEEEEEEK!!!!!!

And then one by one, then 5, then 100 small dots started to drop from Cloudsdale. These were harpies and they were all charred with slash marks on them.

All the ponies whether in the skies or at Canterlot dropped their jaws.

Cadence muttered in disbelief, "He's taking them out by 100s from such a distance..."

Twilight then added, "Final Release: Vibrant Scape of Thousand Cherry Blossoms...... Neighponese again..."

All of the Ponies watched and heard Harpies shriek and fall like they were nothing by Magnus, whilst Magnus seemed very focused and still crackling with lightning.

'I thought they were exaggerating when they said 5000... They weren't.' He thought while sensing the absurd numbers of Harpies in Cloudsdale. 'It also seems the boss is too fast for my Telekinesis alone to follow...' He thought while sensing dozens of blades that were trying to attack the boss break even before it reached. 'Welp... I guess I'll get as many fodders down before I tire myself out too much...'

(Timeskip: About a minute or so later)

'That's as much as I can get.' He thought while wiping sweats off of his brows. 'Now to call them back.' He thought while bringing all the blades that were still not broken back and placing most of them on the wheelbarrow and keeping about a dozen of them with him

He then looked at the dumbfounded looks he was getting and thought, 'As much as I want to be quippy, it's not the time for that...' He then went to the Princesses and Rainbow and spoke, "There's about 600-700 of them including the boss, I had to stop before tiring myself out."

All of them seem to dumbly nod while Rainbow squealed "So... AWESOME...!".

That seemed to snap down and Celestia spoke, "Y- Yes th- thank you, Magnus." Celestia then coughed in her hands and turned around to start speaking. "My brave ponies, most of you here have lost their homes, friends, and loved ones. You all have gone through so much pain and suffering..." She said while looking down. "But you have all held on and endured throughout those and for what? For this moment, for justice, for love, for friendship... For Harmony..." She then looked up with a look of burning determination and continued, "My ponies, it is time to avenge and reclaim your homes!" She then looked towards and shouted in a Royal Canterlot Voice.

"FOR HARMONY!!!"

The ponies shouted with her.

"FOR HARMONY!!!"

She then shouted again even louder.

"FOR CLOUDSDALE!!!!!!"

Magnus joined in and shouted with the others with his own version of Royal Canterlot Voice.

"FOR CLOUDSDALE!!!!!!"

And they all charged, each shouting out their warcry and at this moment, your gender and species did not matter, for they were all brothers and sisters in arms. And they were all huddled under one goal, the reclamation of Cloudsdale.

Magnus was currently charging at the front lines along with the Princesses and his blades. "I'll go in first and blow a path straight through the place where the boss is at."

Rainbow then called out to him and questioned, "Are you actually going to fight the queen alone?" She looked worried.

"Yes," He replied. "It was faster than what you said Dash, how you described it made it sound like it was between Mach 1 and 2 but when I sensed it breaking the blades, it was at least Mach 3."

Luna then chimed in with a look of more worry. "Then we must fight together, it is clearly too much for you to handle!" Luna pleaded.

Magnus looked determined and spoke, "No, only I can take it down safely enough, while you guys will have a hard time."

The mares were about to retort but Magnus cut them off, "Please, I don't want my friends to be hurt... again......"

They all saw this and sighed. Rainbow, with a sudden look of determination, got close to him and gave him a kiss on the lips and spoke, "Don't you get hurt either you idiot..."

Magnus seemed surprised while the Princesses looked at her with envy. Magnus then smiled warmly at her and spoke, "I will... Don't worry..." He then looked in the direction of the Harpy queen and Teleported near the boss.

After he disappeared, waves of Harpies started coming out of Cloudsdale and charged towards them.

But Rainbow was not afraid, filled with determination, and hope towards her hero, she shouted out loud with a smile.

"CHARGE!!!!"
