Ashley's POV

Symbol and I just stared wide eyed at the huge being before us that stood just outside of Ponyville, or I should say towering over Ponyville, because this thing was freakin' huge! "Symbol what the hell is that thing?!" It appeared to be a giant pile of dark purple goo with two large arms sticking into the ground, it's huge yellow circular eyes glowing. "Is...is that a Nightmare Fuel?! Since when are they like that?!"

"There may or may not be a new generation of Nightmares out and about now." My displaced responded uneasily.

"Are you kidding me?!"

"Sadly no, now they don't just copy one of your abilities, they mimic you're entire body and power, able to use your attacks as fluidly as you can." He looked out at the huge beast and clenched his fist, causing it to burn with his signature purple fire. "You want me to handle this, fight it alone or both go at it together?" He asked patiently.

"Together, I'm not letting you fight that thing on your own." I said with a smirk as I summoned my own fire.

He smiled back at me and took a step back. "Alright then, let's go!" With that he grabbed my arm and jumped down the cliff and began sprinting while holding me bridal style causing me to blush. We sped through the Everfree Forest, occasionally jumping from tree to tree while the world passed by in a blur. We were nowhere near the speed of sound or anything, but e were still going faster than any human could manage.

I looked up at my displacer, my blush never leaving my face. I just watched his smooth, long gray hair sway in the air as Symbol ran. The sunlight occasionally caught his purple eyes, causing them to sparkle. I just looked at him, wondering what his answer was before we were interrupted. Shaking my head and ridding myself of the thoughts I looked up to the huge beats that was now trying to swat something out of the air. Squinting my eyes a noticed a rainbow trail zooming around the monster, Rainbow Dash.

"At least she's trying something." Symbol said as he saw her. "We should get over there before she gets herself hurt or worse." He picked up a bit of speed and broke through the treeline. As we enter the large veiled where the monster was located Symbol threw me up into the air. I was surprised but knew that I needed to reach the monster on my own to attack.

I focused on my legs and they became fire, which gave a burst that shot me towards the monster. "Fire Fist!" I charged my fist up and shot a large wave of fire at my opponent. As it turned around to try and hit me it jutted forward as Symbol punched it in the pack of the head while it turned. Rainbow Fash saw an opportunity and flew high in the sky, shooting back down with incredible speed before crashing into the Nightmare Beast, causing it to roar in pain before swatting Rainbow away.

It turned to me, opened up its mouth and shot out a large purple blast of energy. I put up my arms defensively and blocked the attack with Armament Haki. As I put my arms down I was too late to dodge a huge hand striking me. I closed my eyes and prepared for impact, but just felt something go through my body with no pain. Looking down I saw that a few pieces of my body were gone with fire taking there place. "Oh yeah, Logia powers, guess it only works on none magical attacks."

I reformed my body and propelled myself higher into the air before summoning two spears made of fire before throwing them at the Nightmare. The two blades pierced it's goopy skin and it cried out in pain before multiple smaller limbs shot out of its body and streched towards me. I tried to avoid them but the multiple hands and tendril clamped onto my body with some being in...less than desirable places.

Symbols POV

As I was about to land another attack I heard Ashkey shriek. Looking over I saw her trapped with multiple limbs clamping onto her body. When I saw the places she was being touched something inside me snapped. I growled in anger and flash-teleported up to her before furiously ripping the tendrils off of her and shooting down towards the Nightmare with a a fully charged fast at the ready.

As I reached its head I swung my fist forward and hut it right between the eyes, resulting in a large explosion of purple fire as my anger flowed into my flames. The Nightmare roared in pain and defiance before sprouting many more huge arms and blasting everything in sight. I teleported between it and Ponyville and put up a shield to avoid damage being dealt to the town which would surely end in Celestia giving me a stare for a few weeks, it's how it was in my first Equestria, and this place seems to mirror it so I have no reason to not believe that Celestia will be any different.

I saw Rainbow Dash coming in for another attack. "Rainbow Dash! To me!" I yelled catching her attention. She flew over tome and I focused the shield in one arm. "You up for a combined attack?"

"Depends, what's gonna happen."

"I'm gonna spin you up while coating your body in fire and then throw you between its eyes. So you in?" I asked casually.

She looked unsure but nodded. She positioned herself like a javelin and I grabbed her by the stomach. I began spinning up my arm until it was a buzz saw of purple flames and used all my strength to throw Rainbow, having to give the move a name I yelled out. "Rainboom Javelin!" She shot towards the Nightmare and burst out the other side of it. It swayed a little before falling backwards and splitting into a small horde of new generation Nightmares, which we had all named Mimickers due to their nature.

I shot off towards the falling Ashley and caught her in midair. As we reached the ground with Rainbow following us we looked out at the horde. I looked to Ashley and to the mob of Nighmares. "Ashley?"

"Yeah Symbol?" She responded with worry as she looked out at the crowd.

"There's something that I can do with you that will destroy all of these guys but it will take a lot out of us afterwards." I said while turning to her but punching a Nightmare away as it charged.

"What do you have in mind?" She asked uneasily.

I looked to my right palm and a purple symbol of the sun appeared. "We need to fuse."

Author's Notes:

Thing is fusions in the Nightmare-verse always have to have a symbiote being one of the ones fusing, but I'm adding in a new concept that will be explained further next chapter.

Coming up is the combined firm of Symbol and Ashley
