Volume 1

Episode 1

They see you...

"Whoa! This sure has been an eventful day!" said Ruby Rose, a black haired girl with a little red shade in her hair. She has silver eyes and almost pale skin. She was talking with her bunk/teammates about the day that was just ending. It was very eventful, she met new people, fought her worst enemy and stopped a big, criminal action, and found out that her friend was once a White Fang.

After the Faunus Rights Revolution, the White Fang was founded as a symbol of peace and unity between Faunus and Humans. However, humankind continued to discriminate the Faunus forcing the White Fang to become the voice of the Faunus.

Described as being a "once peaceful organization," the White Fang is reported to have disrupted a Faunus civil rights protest. The White Fang is a Faunus terrorist group that is using violent means to counter the perceived and actual discrimination that they were suffered by the Faunus race.

Her friends (and sister) replied with snores.

"Huh." she said before falling asleep, too.

Light years away.

"Suleykaar! Stop this, at once!" yelled Princess Celestia using her Royal Canterlot Voice. She didn't use that tone for such a long time, that she had literally cobwebs flying in the wind.

"And who will stop me? You? The pitiful 'elements'? They have no power above me!" yelled Suleykaar, he was a small dragon (compared to other, full grown dragons), but more dangerous than the Dragon King times ten. He was the ancient dragon, the owner of a Lord soul.

"No, she will." Celestia told him in a dangerous tone. The kind of tone a first grader scares a third grader with his sixth grader friend. Which is a very good comparision.

"B-but she doesn't exist, d-does she?!" told her the Dragon, visibly stuttering out of fright.

"What if I told you she does?" she asked him.

"Then I will have to kill you!" yelled the Dragon, readying his flames. His dangerous flames empowered with the Soul. They would surely kill her within a second, within three seconds she would be ashes.

"You would have to kill my copy?" she told him calmly. As calmly as an great knight to an enraged peasant.

"Dir Neben Dii Yol!" the Dragon shouted, spitting fire on her copy.

Hundreds of kilometres away

Gasp!

"How bad is it, sister?" asked her sister Princess Luna, curious and worried at the same time.

"On a scale of one of ten?" asked Celestia.

"Haha, very funny, or as you would've said, punny!" told her Luna, faking a laugh.

"But in all seriousness? The kind of bad that we need Her." she told the other alicorn.

"We- I have feared it would have to happen." she told Celestia.

"Yes, she was too close to death too many times." said Celestia.

"Anyways, let's get the scroll, but worry not, sister, we both will be there to help her, and he is not the strongest enemy she will have to fight!" cheered her up Luna.

"Don't remind me of Father, please." told her Celestia.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot that you don't like talking about it." told her Luna.

They finally came to a set of doors with holes for horns.

They inserted their horns in and opened their doors, showing inside a blinding light, where the Elements of Harmony should've been stored.

"Which level of the vault was the scroll on?" asked Luna her sister, having forgot about it.

"The second highest, 12." told her sister Celestia.

"When will you tell me what's on 13?" asked Luna.

"Focus for now, Luna." scolded Celestia.

They channeled magic to their horns and unlocked the level 12 of the vault, taking a scroll from it. They went to a hidden room in the wall near the vault and channeled their magic to the scroll through their horns with the scroll lying on the special, obsidian floor, making a small, red ball of light that 'blinked' through the window to the Everfree Forest.

"It begins..." the sisters said at once, their eyes glowing from the sheer amount of magic.

A few miles away

What is happening? she asked herself over and over again. She was floating in some sort of a void.

Where am I? she finally broke the mad cycle and asked this one question, repeating it too, over and over again.

Then she noticed a light.

What is it? she asked herself over and over again.

She finally reached out to the light and...

...passed right through!

Am I falling? she asked herself only one time, before her senses came back to her, she noticed a forest growing big, that was an answer to her question.

She got into a dive formation and unseathed her scythe that is also a hybrid of a sniper and a shotgun.

Using the blade of the scythe, she caught a thick branch off some big tree, swung a few times and landed.

"Where am I?!" she shouted with her high-pitched voice.

"Is this Emerald Forest? No, it can't be, too dark." she told herself.

"Hmm... is it adventure time?" she asked herself.

"Because I like adventures!" she answered back.

Now, due to the previous lack of time, and the big amount of it right now, I will describe her weapon. It is very fascinating!

And cool.

So cool.

Crescent Rose (the name of the weapon) is Ruby's (did I even tell you her name earlier? I think I did) weapon of choice. It is a High Caliber Sniper-Scythe (HCSS) - a hybrid between a scythe and a sniper rifle.

As its name implies, Crescent Rose's frame is colored rose-red with black trims, with its large scythe blade forged into a crescent shape.

The most notable property of Crescent Rose is its foldable frame: it allows Crescent Rose to transform to different modes of combat, from a full-scale scythe and sniper rifle form to a dense shotgun form.

It can also fold up tightly into the form of a holster for easy convenient transportation, stored underneath Ruby's cloak at her waist. Also, though it appears to be a bolt-action weapon, it does not need to be in its gun mode to fire.

Oh, looks like some action is coming up, better stop talking!

Volume 1

Episode 2

Suleykaar was scared. I'm not joking, the great dragon was scared of her. He felt a disturbance in his Lord soul, like it was yelling at him to go and hide in a hole because his doom is approaching. But suddenly, he thought of a great idea, an idea so great, that he couldn't even gather himself as he shouted in triumph.

"I got it! I got it!" he shouted, excited that he just MIGHT get a chance at a victory, a tiny one, and his idea might not work.

The Huntress is a mortal! he thought.

I think... he added.

What if I bend the planet's time rift so that it matches the rest of the universe?

Back at HER world, it would all be going on and on,

Celestia would notice what I did,

The Huntress will aid her, but ask her about time, that her friends/family will be worried

And Celestia COULDN'T lie! Even if her life was at the stake!

And she will HAVE to send the Huntress back home,

Because she actually WORRIES about other living beings!

"Oh Suleykaar, you're such a great dragon!" he told himself.

But yet, his lord Soul was screaming at him, trying to get out of there, to tell him one think he forgot, that he has a 'hole in the wall'. Wherein the wall is his plan. He dismissed simply dismissed it.

Suleykaar, you idiot! She will not bring her home! She will bring the home to her!

Back to Ruby

"Oh wow, am I going deeper in the forest? Because it get's a lot darker and... spookier!" she said, avoiding the word 'scary', Ruby Rose doesn't fear ANYTHING.

"So, I should just turn back, shou--" she started saying, but was interrupted by a loud, earth shaking thud and a feminine scream.

"What was that? I think it came from that direction, I should check this out." she said before running to the place where the scream came from. And in running I mean dashing at mach 3 and leaving rose petals behind.

Deeper in the forest

"Twilight, what in Tartarus is that thing?!" shouted Rainbow Dash, a cyan pegasus with a multi-coloured tomboyishly cut mane and tail.

"Don't bring Tartarus in this, Rainbow Dash! It's too bad to come from Tartarus!" told her Twilight Sparkle, a lavender colored alicorn with a purple mane and tail with a magneta strip in both.

"It's no time for jokes or whatever that was, what is it and why can't I fly?!" shouted Rainbow Dash at her friend.

"I thinks it's a Taraxippus!" she told her friend, pointing to the monster, it was a terrifying being, it was looking like a deformed Dragon, being only twelve feet tall (now, I don't want to sound crazy, but he's shorter even than Suleykaar!), it's wings twisted, eyes a toxic green with a red sclera, it's whole body was covered in scales except for the underbelly.

Oh, and the fact that it had the property of disarming ponies of their magic, even inexperienced alicorns.

"Watch out, it's attacking!" Rainbow Dash warned them, them because there were two others, Applejack, an orange earth pony with a yellow ponytail, and Fluttershy, a shy, yellow pegasus with a long, flowing pink mane and tail.

They all dove out of the way, except for Fluttershy, as the monster was lunging at her, Rainbow Dash got her out of harm's way...

Getting hit herself!

"Rainbow Dash!" yelled Applejack, standing on her forelegs and bucking the dragon so hard it was pushed away.

She grabbed the mare by tail and dragged her towards her friends.

"What are we gonna do now, Twi?" asked Applejack, visibly scared.

"I-I- we can't do anything! We're trapped unless someone helps us!"

And someone was going to help them, they didn't know that yet.

"Fear not, for I, Ruby Rose, will save you!" shouted someone, they couldn't see who it was, but Twilight noticed rose petals flying in the air.

Suddenly, the Taraxippus roared and grabbed it's underbelly, it was bleeding, and had a big gash.

And it regenerated, almost immedeately!

"Hmmm... regenerating, you say? asked the mysterious pony.

"Wait, is it even a pony? And why couldn't I see her? The monster can't disable my reflexes, I should've seen that!" that was true, she had enhanced reflexes due to being an alicorn.

"I already said who I was, name's Ruby!" shouted someone behind her.

They all (except for the unconscious Rainbow Dash) turned around, frightened. What they saw, or who, was a...

What is this thing, it looks like a furless minotaur, and look at that face, she [I think it looks like a she, look at her pretty mane, it's so nice!] looks no older than fifteen, is she a child? She can't take that monster on alone! thought Twilight.

"Wait!" shouted Twilight as the... girl? The proper minotaurian word for a female is a girl. As the girl got ready to lunge at the monster.

"Yes, little pony thing?" asked her Ruby.

"You're a child! You can't take that thing on alone!" told her Twilight.

"Remember one thing, pony. Don't judge a book by it's cover." said 'Ruby'.

"Okaaay... even the monster looks at me with a look that just says 'stay out of this, kid'." complained the girl

"So you!" she shouted to the monster, it had a look of confusion. He pointed to himself.

"Yes you!" she told him.

"Surprise surprise, when you find out that a..." she started saying, suddenly, she disappeared leaving rose petals behind.

"warrior" she said, as the monster suddenly roared in pain.

"runs" she said as the monster again roared in pain

"wild!" she finished, finally being able to be seen, she was on the head of the monster, stabbing it with something Twilight couldn't see.

The monster fell dead with a roar, and the girl jumped off, folding something, most probably her weapon, in her coat.

"Because the book MIGHT be good." Ruby told her.

"Now, about your hurt friend?" she asked, concerned.

Volume 1

Episode 3

"Oh gosh I totally forgot about Rainbow Dash!" complained Twilight, while looking at her unconscious friend.

"Show me the direction and I will get her to a hospital in a few seconds." told her Ruby. as she picked up the still-bleeding pegasus.

"It's that way!" Twilight shouted pointing east.

Ruby already disappeared leaving rose petals behind her.

"She really is fast..." Fluttershy said quietly.

"At least twice as fast as Rainbow Dash, and she's doing it without even trying!" added Twilight.

"Let's go back to Ponyville." told them Applejack.

"Why go? I can teleport us all" said Twilight.

"Couldn't you use the teleport to get Dash to Ponyville?" asked her Fluttershy.

"I just regained enough power, and do you see how fast Ruby is? She's going at the very least mach 3!" exclaimed Twilight, readying up the spell.

"And how fast is that?" asked Applejack.

"Twelve hundred metres" told her Twilight

"A minute?!" asked Applejack, impressed.

"A second." told her Twilight, just as they teleporting.

Suleykaar hideout

"Grrr... my greatest creation, destroyed by HER!" growled Suleykaar, the dragon was just finishing gathering enough magic to change the time disruption.

"That'll show Celestia, hiding behind her summons! The only chance for Equestria will have to leave!"

He was starting the spell...

...and I don't know what you expected, he is a powerful dragon that also has a Lord soul, he just finished the spell.

I don't think you comprehend what a Lord soul is.

It is the foundation of the very world, if not for it, there would be no fire, nor any life, he managed to steal one of the three when he was just a baby, Celestia's father, back then a small colt, getting the second, and...

"Who took the third soul, actually?" asked himself the dragon.

"Anyways, back to wor--" started the dragon, but he suddenly realised something.

"If she can't go home, she will bring home to herself!" he lamented, visibly despaired.

He suddenly felt the Lord soul itself... laughing at him!

"What are you cackling about?!" he snapped at the soul inside him, it looked... weird, at least.

Canterlot

"He did it, he changed the time of Equestria and matched it to the universe..." informed her sister Celestia.

"So?" Luna asked her sister.

"I cannot lie, nor can you, Ruby will ask about her friends and family, we will have to send her back home." despaired Celestia.

"Sister dearest, you can be so... thick sometimes!" told her Luna.

"What do you mean?" asked Celestia.

"If we can't bring her home, why won't we bring the home to her?" asked Luna.

"Sister... from now on you're leading the country, I'm just too stupid." joked Celestia.

"Let us get the scroll ready." said Luna with a smile on her face. She liked outsmarting her sister.

She was not proud of her past, but one thing was for granted. When Luna is desperate, she can gather an army. After Celestia fought her when Luna was Nightmare Moon, an army of thestrals attacked the Royal Guard and attempted to kill Celestia, she managed to persuade the nobles of the Lunar Empire to get their guards to fight for her.

What is not documented, is that there were the Solar Empire, and the Lunar Empire back then. Luna wasn't lonely, she was complaining about the mere fact that the Sun was a lot longer than the Moon, and that no one from the Solar Empire loves her, that's why Celestia was treating her off-hoof, because her sister was simply acted childishly. No one on the Lunar Empire liked Celestia.

5 minutes later

"It would be smart to send a chariot, wouldn't it?" asked Luna.

"Let's do so." replied Celestia.

Back in Ponyville

Ruby was walking through the streets of Ponyville, humming a song.

"Ruby! Ruby Rose! Please wait!" shouted a pony from behind her, she sounded like that lavender pony, so she turned around and waited.

"Oh hi there, I just got your friend to the hospital, it's not very serious, she just got a nasty scratch, you know?" started the conversation Ruby.

"I'm grateful for that, and for what you did back at the forest. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have rated you based on your age. Wait, how old are you, and for that matter, let's maybe introduce eachother?" asked Twilight

"Okay, I guess." told her Ruby.

"I'll start then, my name is Twilight Sparkle, I'm twenty five and I'm a Princess of Magic.

"Nice to meet you, Twilight, my name is Ruby, Ruby Rose, I'm 15, and I'm a huntress-in-training of Beacon." Ruby told her.

"I'd like to ask you a few question, could you follow me to the library?" asked Twilight.

"'Kay" replied Ruby shortly.

in a park

"Hey, Rarity" said Pinkie Pie, Pinkie is and earth pony, with a light pink coat, and a puffy magneta mane and tail.

"Yes, Pinkie dear?" said Rarity, she's a white coated, with a purple mane and tail, very styled.

"You ever wonder why we're here?"

"Oh, darling, It’s one of life’s great mysteries isn’t it? Why are we here? I mean, are we the product of some cosmic coincidence, or is there really a God watching everything? You know, with a plan for us and stuff. I don’t know, darling, but it keeps me up at night." replied Rarity.

"What?! I mean why are we out here, hanging out here?"

"Oh. Uh... uhuh."

"What was all that stuff about God?"

"Uh...hm? Nothing, darling."

"You wanna talk about it?"

"No."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Seriously though, why are we out here? As far as I can tell, these are just some plain plains, ooh, do you see what I did there?." asked Pinkie.

"Mm hmm." replied Rarity.

"The only reason that we set up a picnic here, is because they have a picnic over there. And the only reason they have a picnic over there, is because we have a picnic here."

"Yeah. That's because we're fighting each other."

"No, no. But I mean, even if we were to pull out today, and if they would come take our picnic lot, they would have two picnics in the middle of a plain plain. Whoopdee-bucking-doo." complained Pinkie.

"What's up with that anyway? I mean, I signed on to sing some songs. Next thing I know, You and Vinyl blow up the whole DJ set and I’m stuck in the middle of a plain, fighting a bunch of our ex-friends."

"I actually--"

"Oh, darling! Look! A chariot is flying in the direction of the library, let's go and see what's happening!"

"You go, I'll find the rest of the girls!" said Pinkie, bouncing to the Sweet Apple Acres and Fluttershy's cottage.

Back at the library

"So, Ruby, mind if I ask a few questions?" asked Twilight.

"Okay, what do you want to know?" asked Ruby

"What species are you?" asked Twilight

"I'm a human." replied Ruby.

"What was that about Huntress?"

"Oh! I'm what is known as a Huntress-in-training, I study and train at Beacon, the best school for soon Hunters, we Hunters fight the Grimm, we're divided in teams of four!" replied Ruby as Twilight took notes.

"What is the Grimm?" asked Twilight.

"It's a collection of monsters of darkness that don't have souls." replied Ruby.

"Who are you on the team with?" asked Twilight.

"Well, we're called RWBY, I'm the team leader, the second-in-command is Wei--" she started, but was interrupted by a series of knocks on the door.

"Let's see who it is." told her Twilight, standing up.

They opened the door and what they saw shocked them.

Royal Guards, about a dozen of them, with three sky chariots.

"Uhm... gentlemen? What are you doing here?" asked Twilight.

"Princess Celestia and Luna requested you, your friends and your... dangerous companion to the Canterlot Castle, Princess."

"Well, we have to get my friends first." told them Twilight.

"That is already taken care of, Princess." told her one of the guards.

"What is this visit all about?" asked Twilight.

"About your dangerous 'friend" told her the guard.

"You know I have a name, right?" asked him Ruby, frustrated.

"My deepest apologies, ma'am...?" asked the guard for her name.

"It's Ruby." replied Ruby.

"Twilight! Twilight!" she suddenly heard yelling, her friend were running towards her, including Rainbow Dash, who has a bandaged belly..

"Rainbow Dash! You were supposed to be in bed!" whined Twilight

"And definitely not running!" she added.

"That's what you call running?" asked Ruby.

"That's more like crawling." she added.

"Because you got impossible ability of going at high speeds." told her Twilight.

"Pfft! says the impossible unicorn!" rebutted Ruby.

"Alicorn." one of the guards added.

"Yeah, big difference, isn't it?" Ruby asked sarcastically.

"Actually, yes, she's a part of every pony race" told her the guard.

"They're trotting now, seriously? This is gonna take a hour..." complained Ruby.

"Can't they go faster?" she added.

"Maybe we should move to them instead?" some guard said.

"Princess?" asked one guard for her opinion.

"Let's just move to them." said Twilight.

1 minute later

"Wait, what's that thing?!" shouted Rainbow Dash, slowing down to a walk, because Twilight and the guards started moving towards them.

"The 'thing' is a she and she saved your, scratch that, our lives, so be a little grateful!" scolded her Applejack.

"Oh, she doesn't look tough, nor like a warrior, she's a kid, I can see that from her face." said Rainbow Dash.

"Yes, and she took down a Taraxippus." rebutted Applejack.

"In three hits." she added.

"You're not joking?" asked Rainbow Dash.

"No, and brace yourself for something shocking," warned her Applejack.

"I'm ready...?" asked Rainbow Dash, unsure.

"She's easily three times faster than you can ever be." said Applejack.

"Now that's a load of--" started Rainbow Dash, but Applejack hit her in the head.

"Don't swear!" scolded her Applejack.

"I wanted to say buck..." said Rainbow Dash, massaging her head.

"Likely story-- oh here they are." said Applejack as Twilight and Ruby neared them.

Rainbow Dash neared Ruby and tried to look her in the eyes, but Ruby was twice as tall (being five feet eight inches and the average pony being two and a half feet.).

"So, is it true you are easily three times faster than me?" asked Rainbow Dash.

"It depends, how fast can you go?" asked Ruby, interested.

"I can break the sound barrier." replied Rainbow Dash.

"Do you know how the fast I can go without my natural enhancer?" asked Ruby.

"How fast?" asked her Rainbow Dash.

"I once got to mach fifteen." she replied, making Rainbow Dash sit down and look at her in awe.

"And that's without using my semblance form!" told her Ruby.

"H-how fast CAN you go with this semblance of yours?" asked Rainbow Dash, with shock written on her face.

"I actually don't know, I'm to busy fighting when I'm using it. And it's semblance form, semblance itself is a completely different thing." told her Ruby.

"That's something new, Rainbow Dash willing to learn." Said Applejack to Twilight watching Ruby and Dash talk.

"Seeing how she is the fastest being on the world, but someone comes along that can go mach 15 with little to no strain?" asked her Twilight.

"Twi, I'm not good at math, how fast is mach 15?" asked her Applejack.

"Fifty one hundred metres a second." said Twilight.

"I'm sorry, Princess, ladies? I'd ask you to get on the chariot." pleaded the guard.

"Where are we going, anyways?" asked Ruby, curious.

"To the Canterlot Castle, I think I already told you that?" asked the guard.

"But which way is it?" asked Ruby, annoyed.

"It's high up on that mountain." replied the guard, pointing to the visible castle.

"And who wants to meet me?" asked Ruby.

"Princess Luna and Princess Celestia." replied the guard, getting on the chariot.

"And how do they look?!" she raised her voice, she was tired of this annoying guard.

"They are big, one is white and one is dark-blue and they are alicorns, why do you need to know?" Twilight shouted from withing her charriot.

But Ruby was already gone, leaving rose petals behind.

"Oohmygosh ohmygosh ohmygosh ohmygosh shereallyisfast!" shouted Rainbow Dash, hyped.

"Well, we're definitely not going to catch up with aerial transportation." said Twilight.

"Well then, what do you suggest, Twi?" asked Applejack, who was sitting with Twilight in the chariot.

"It's simple, I'll just teleport us all." Twilight told her friend.

"You sure you're up to this?" questioned Applejack.

"Trust me, Applejack." assured her Twilight.

"Brace yourself, everypony!" she shouted to the guards and the other chariot.

"Huh?" was all that Rainbow Dash managed to say before they all teleported.

Back to Ruby

Ruby was walking through the streets, humming yet another song, when she realised the ponies were... staring at her! She noticed one of the ponies flee to a near guard to warn him.

"There's a monster in town! shouted the pony from far away.

And then the guard noticed her.

And then he took out some black device with glass over a small, red button.

And then he pressed the button.

And then an alarm sounded through the whole city, and many Royal Guards and a few Night Guards came from many streets, surrounding her.

"Sixty seven, sixty eight, sixty nine, that's a bad number... oh! Here's another bat, that makes seventy." she counted out loud.

"A little unfair, don't you gentlemen think?

A little unfair for you." she added, just to sound intimidating.

"Attack!" shouted some important-looking, big earth pony in red full armor, that covered him from the tip of his mane, to hooves with spikes on shoulders, dragging a BIG hammer with one hoof.

"Not even a little diplomacy? I like that, didn't have a serious fight in too long." she said to herself, because obviously more than twenty four hours is too long (duh!).

One of the threstrals flew fast at her, but she caught his snout with her hand, lifted him overhead (with one hand!) and slammed him in the ground.

Then three royal guards lunged at her with spears, and when they were about to stab her, she disappeared, leaving an extra amount of rose petals, just to confuse, and with a little luck, blind them, she appeared behind them, grabbed one by the helmet, then another, and slammed their heads, she crabbed the third one, and with the butt of the spear, she knocked the guard out.

"Okaay... get her!" said the red 'tank', pointing at her with his hammer and looking at his subordinates.

"Two earth ponies with Zweihoofers approached her, while a pegasus was holding and unicorn in the air, who was readying up a blast of magic, one of the newest strategies in the military, it was simply called 'surprise'.

That did get her attention, she took out her shotgun, toned it's damage just a bit to not kill her enemies (they weren't monsters which had no soul, after all.), and shot the pegasi holding the unicorn, they both crashed in one of the Zweihoofer wielding ponies, and the other one took a serious battle stance, challenging her to a fair fight.

She smiled as he seperated one half of the shotgun, hid one of the halves, and the other one unfolded into a small scythe, about double the size of the Zweihoofer. Let me explain, as you see, the ponies are small, I would go and say that they are tiny, so they have small weapons, a two-hoofed sword is the size of a short sword, and Ruby's scythe, Crescent Rose? It was double the size of a Zweihander.

The pony lunged at her with his sword, but she parried, raised the scythe, and cut the guard's glove off, watching out trying not to cut off his hoof. The guard in surprise dropped his sword, she grabbed him, and threw him at the pile of other guards.

"Everyone, attack at once!" the, most presumably, earth pony captain, maybe even a major?

She activated her semblence, while the guards all were in the air, lunging at her, she flew to them, at VERY fast speeds, dispatched ten in flight, flew to another group, and took out ten more.

'Forty two left, gotta speed up, Twilight's already probably teleporting her and her friends already, and I want to fight this...' well, she couldn't call him a red bastard, because her dominant colour was red, so she simply decided to call him

'Ponywick.' because he reminded her a lot of Roman Torchwick. And the guards the incompetent henchmen hired from Junior.

She took out the second half of her scythe, neatly folded, she also folded the other part, she put them together, and unfolded the giant scythe, loaded it with a magazine with a black cross on the side of it into her scythe, and shot the ground with it, she was unnoticable, she took out at least twenty guards, while shooting to get more and more speed, until 'Ponywick' told them to retreat and stand before him, she stood before the around two dozen guards, and the guard were looking at her with fear, and... respect?

They obviously noticed they had not chances, so they opened the way to their leader, he walked (towering over them) and neared her, stopping around a hundred feet from her. Suddenly three pegasi with knives flew from behind him, and jumped at her.

She dispatched the rest of the guards, who then attacked her, and looked around for 'Ponywick', but she couldn't find him. She groaned when she noticed him climbing on a ladder, she dashed to the building he was climbing on, jumped on it and faced him.

"Persistent..." he said, before jumping from the building, she started walking towards the edge of the building, but a chariot suddenly flew from below, with 'Ponywick' on it, an unicorn guard sitting with him, but she had an unusual red and yellow mane, and a light, creamy yellow coat, she readied up her horn, and shot a blast of fire from it.

But this time, there was no Proffesor Goodwitch to help her. She had to do it alone.

She jumed above the fireball, shot it in midair, and from the blast launched herself at the charriot, she kicked the unicorn, knocking her out, and grabbed the red, metal boulder and jumped out of the chariot, on the streets below, they crashed, 'Ponywick' below, but he kicked her off him, she landed in front of him as he got up, and he charged at her, she jumped above him, and he hit a lamp with his hammer, the lamp then broke in half.

He dropped his hammer, grabbed half of the lamp in the air and threw it at her, she dodged it, and lunged at him with her scythe, she knocked him back, and picked up his hammer, and hit him so hard with it that his helmet fell off, and he was knocked out cold.

"Good night,"

then she snickered, which obviously was a bad sign.

"Romane Ponywick." and then she burst out laughing.

"That wasn't a bad joke, you know?" asked a feminine, mature voice from behind her, that made her actually calm down.

What she noticed made her jaw drop, behind her were standing two divine creatures, one white, on eye level with her, with a flowing rainbow mane and tail, with a sun mark on her flank, the other one was smaller, with a transparent, blue mane and tail with stairs in it, she had a mark of the moon on her flank, they had both wings and horns.

'Are those the Princesses? I can see why, if someone like this strolled in my city of which I'd be a mayor of, I'd crown them immediately.'

"Why, thank you." the white one replied, her horn glowing, but Ruby didn't say anythi--.

'Oh crap.'
