With her subjects out of the way Celestia could cut loose.

A bright glowing blue orb formed in Midnight's hand. "Time for the Sun to set for the last time!"

Swinging her arm forward, the ball of magic rushed forward through the air at the alicorn. As it approached, Celestia didn't move, but casually smacked the incoming attack to the side with her wing.

"This is your last chance Midnight stop this foolishness at once. This is your last chance."

Midnight sneered at the threat she heard. "I assure you this battle is far from over." Conjuring two more balls of magic, she threw them both at Celestia, who in turn opened up both wings on her right side to counter both attacks simultaneously. "Don't just stand there, help me." Midnight hissed at Morpha.

The changeling took to the sky and began firing off several quick blasts. Before they reached her, he Midnight propelled herself using telekinesis and fired a beam of magic.

With each blast however, a wing would swing out and smack the blast into pieces. 'So this is the power of an Alicorn.' Midnight thought to herself, 'then lets test a few different spells.'

Her magic radiated on the ground as it began to shape the stone and structures into javelins to which she shot one after another at the alicorn. As the javelins get closer, Celestia's horn glows a bright gold and shot out a beam. The stream rushed out and obliterated the javelins. Craning her neck she noticed the rush of more magical blasts from Morpha and formed a shield causing the blasts to harmlessly impact against it.

Deactivating her shield, Celestia spread her wings. "My turn."

In a blur, Celestia vanished from her spot, leaving her opponents dumb struck until she reappeared right behind Morpha. Before the Changeling could react the Alicorn unleashed a strike at her back that sent her flying through the air into the ground causing a small fissure into the road.

Midnight's magic burrowed deep into the ground, causing breaks in the road as the substance she was searching for was dragged out. Using the substance Osmium she shaped them into hundreds of tiny like daggers and began to expand them outwards like a sphere.

With that she fired several at a time, bit by bit as Celestia began to maneuver out of the way of the attacks with ease. With a blast of magic several of the tiny daggers were blasted out of the way.

Celestia twisted out of the way as a sickly surge of magic graced right by her. As more of the daggers shot near her Celestia's horn had the slightest glow of gold at the very tip before she vanished from her place.

'No flash. Using the smallest amount of magic needed while compressing it to hide the flash.'

Midnight spun as she fired a flame spell from when she briefly sensed Celestia's energy only for the alicorn to disappear instantly.

Summoning the remaining osmium daggers she began to hurl them down in nearly every direction as the Alicorn rapidly dodged the downpour until it ran out. She gently floated above the ground.

"You cannot win. Cease this foolishness at once."

A low grumble escaped Midnight's throat. "Alright, the warm-up is over. Its time to show you power Celestia. The power of her majesty and the mad god!" Her dark aura radiated out as the area began to rumble under the waves of power radiating out of her.

With that her armor began to materialize. A black armor with many spiked features. The chest plate is entirely black except for a small arrow like inward protrusion on both sides near her stomach. The plate is lined with several spikes running from top to bottom. Multiple layered shoulder guards connect to the chest plate and feature several pyramid shaped spikes that protrude outward. Around her neck is a large necklace of spikes, matching the ones found around the chest plate but much larger. A lighter colored metal covers her upper arms before connecting to the black arm guards. The arm guards feature two metal straps and two spiked protrusions near the elbows. At her waist, she wears a multiple layered spike skirt ending in the spikes found in the shoulder guards. Around her waist is a simple banded belt. The tops of her legs remain exposed before her greaves start a little above her knees. Above the knee, the greaves are sectioned off, featuring two spikes per section. At the knee, a diamond like pattern forms with several spikes at the outward facing side. Below the knee, the spikes move to the side of the leg and are placed in even intervals all the way down.

Rushing at Celestia with breakneck speed she was narrowly able to land a strike before a barrier was erected up.

Taking aim with her horn she fired able to break through Celestia's barrier. Celestia readied her horn and fired back only to be stopped by a light rose barrier.

Alarmed she put distance between them as several blasts of magic were hurled at her.

She scowled, realizing that Morpha was manipulating Shining Armor with her spell still.

Midnight nonetheless pressed the attack as she continued attacking her by chaining a series of spells.

Meanwhile Morpha shift into a more reptilian appearance with sharpened fangs and claws. Charging she launched a series of slashes to which the Alicorn was forced to dodge as she was being bombarded by magical blasts.

Blasting Morpha back with a shockwave of magic she was then rushed by Midnight who began using her magic to rip metals and ores out of nearby shops and began changing the composition into the deadliest forms of these elements.

"What do you value more? Your victory or your subjects!" With a wave of her hand Midnight sent out a widespread of magic that shattered the barrier by the guard members that were containing the fight. She then sent the composition of elements flying outwards towards the citizens that were being evacuated.

Alarmed Celestia began using her magic to block the deadly assault.

Taking advantage of her distraction Midnight, Morpha, and a controlled Shining Armor fired bolts of magic at her to which she erected a shield. Using her magic she changed the deadly contaminants to something manageable. Just as she was about to counter attack Midnight appeared in front of her and solidifying her magic the dark unicorn swung with all of her might slashing across the Alicorn's torso.

Celestia let out a yelp of pain as she was promptly blasted by a blast of magic as she careened backwards, crashing through a building and with a bounce rolled across the surface of the park. Her hair matted with grass and leaves. Her fur split was parted and there was a deep gash across her chest. Taking a few moments to catch her breath she readied herself as the Unicorn and Changeling Queen charged her once more.

General Blackthorn could see the bearers and Cadance. The Queen wanted them. Priority would be given. Below, he saw Royal Guards setting up their defensive positions.

His compatriots smashed the shield repeatedly, using sheer force to bring it down. Since they were drones they would never deviate from the directives that were given them despite the pain they might experience. They smashed the shield one final time; it flickered and died, shattering like glass.

General Blackthorn promptly began giving orders. "The attack commences now. Remember what we trained for. Try to land in weak points within the Royal Guard formations. Sow disunity and confusion. Divide and conquer. The six mares and stallion with the princess heading towards the citadel are the Bearers of Harmony. They are the only ones with connections to Equestria's super weapon. This makes them strategically important. The Queen wants them alive. Squad Force Break and divisions one through twelve, you are tasked with the live capture of the Bearers." With that the attack commenced.

The embrace of their friend ended quickly with a quick surmising of the situation.

The group had no choice, but to get to the elements. As they made their way to the Tower of Holding the barrier shattered and the Changelings began to pour into the ground. The sound of impact could be heard around them, having to dodge their intents to bombard them.

They were soon surrounded by a massive army of changelings. They were all waiting for them in their battle positions.

"Looks like we're gonna have to do this the hard way!" Rainbow Dash balling up her fists. She ran over to one of them to actually see a mirror of herself. She formed a puzzled face as the copy attacked her with a spinning strike causing her to jump back to avoid. "How did he...?"

Then, all the changelings in front of them began transforming into each one of them."

"They're changelings, remember?" Twilight explained.

"They're changelings, remember?" A group of five changelings that transformed into Twilight repeated, provokingly.

"Don't let them distract you." Twilight announced as they all positioned themselves in defense. "We have no choice." Twilight's horn began to glow brightly. "We'll break our way through!"

With that the battle began.

Blackthorn descended with his command squad. There was a mass of Royal Guards atop of a roof close to the citadel. Its proximity to that structure made it a viable target. From this high viewpoint he could look over the area allowing him a view of any viable threats.

Magic bolts fired and struck several of the Changeling thrones, but the overwhelming numbers allowed them to sacrifice the drones as they quickly attacked and overwhelmed the guards.

The guards ponies on the roof were soon gorged with fangs and horns. The crimson fluid spilled out onto the roof.

Blackthorn watched out from above as the Bearers engaged their forces.

The sounds of battle roared around him. Explosions from landings, to the clashing of steel upon chitin.

The guards were trying to set up a chokepoint at the intersection. He was going to have to put an end to that. Giving the order for his squad to take flight the sound of buzzing wings echoed and just as he was charging up a bolt of green energy a cutting blast slashed one of his wings causing him to crash to the roof. He began to ooze from his wound as his attention turned to his attacker.

He snarled. Captain Shinespark. Like Cadance she her private stores were drugged.

"Come now Changeling. Did you expect me not to regularly check my stock with warning of trouble? Death or imprisonment." She drew her sword. "Your choice."

Because of peace that Equestria had enjoyed for many years the Royal Guard had become nothing more than a glorified police force, with only a few key members of their military being a threat. That was until this past year with the creation of the Lunar Guard. Which was why a good deal of their tactics was centered around capturing the elements.

The possibility of the Elements choosing new bearers upon the current one's death was not a risk they could make.

Blackthorn steeled his nerves. One minor setback would not be enough to stop that.

---

The Elements were plowing through the Changeling's forces. As the creatures charged them they were blasted, cut, or thrown aside with ease.

Each and every one that attempted to rush Applejack was met with solid blows that sent them hurtling across the area with ease.

Those who got too close to Rarity were snared in her ribbons and thrown away.

Any that tried to tackle Fluttershy met the ground or their fellow changelings as the nimble Pegasi dodged out of the way and against Twilight's mighty magical blasts they stood no hope.

"Is it just me or is this ridiculously easy?" Rainbow asked as she swatted down every Changeling that rushed her with ease. Dozens downed drones soon turned into hundreds as the group continued to push past the soldiers with ease.

'Tajuu Kagebunshin no Jutsu.' A thousand Narutos flickered into existence as they went about distracting the drones giving the bearers the opening to slip away.

Just as they were about to enter the tower a series of swords rain down cutting them from their destination.

"Long time no see…Bearers of Harmony."

The Condemned revealed themselves.

Demented and Elusive Killer Vanity.

The Strong and Brutal Rockhead.

The Sociopathic Tricky.

The Selfish Adrenaline Rush.

Angry and violent Hot Streak recently freed from her imprisonment.

And the ever dangerous Perfect Storm.

"Twilight. We got this. You and Princess Cadance get to the Elements."

"You're not really asking us to leave you to fight them!" Cadance exclaimed in disbelief.

"They'll be alright." Twilight assured her. "I trust them. They're strong. They won't lose!"

Cadance placed her faith in Twilight and her friends. The Condemned moved from the entrance to their surprise.

Maybe a display of arrogance. Of certainty that they had won. Either way Twilight and Cadance saw their chance and took it.

"This has been a long time coming Bearers! Let's see who's magic is stronger. Yours or ours." Perfect said as the battle between the two forces began to reach its climax.
