Ashley's POV

"W-What?" I asked wide eyed.

"You heard me, if we want this fight to go down easy we should attempt a fusion." Symbol simply stated. "Now it's not the same as symbiote fusion or anything like DBZ or Steven Universe, one of us will have the majority of control over the fusion but the other will still be able to influence the one in control." He explained. He held up the palm of his right hand and showed me a glowing purple symbol of the sun that had appeared on it. "If I grant you this symbol, you will be able to fuse with anyone else that has it."

I blasted a Nightmare as it got too close and nodded my head, trusting my displacer. "Ok, let's do it."

He nodded and told me to hold up my right hand. Once I did he grabbed it in his hand and I could feel a weird surge of energy flow into my arm. He let go and the symbol was no on my palm. "It will appear and disappear naturally depending on the situation. If tow people that have the symbol are close together it will naturally appear if their minds are set in fight mode, the Rory of the time it is hidden." He explained to me while kicking a Nightmare away.

"Have you fused before?" I asked as I put up a wall of fire to make the Nightmares back away.

"A few times, my first experience with fusion was with Epidemic, creating Symbolic. I was the one in control as he basically became a set of draconic armour that was fused onto my body. I'll tell you, the power I felt in that form was...incredible." He grinned madly. "I felt like I could crush the world in my palm, although I was nowhere near that strong. Alright, let's do this. Focus on your power, let it flow over your body." He instructed.

I nodded and closed my eyes, feeling the power I had flow through my veins. Symbol did the same and we placed our palms together. I felt his energy pour into me and my energy start flowing into him. In a bright flash of light I felt myself being pulled into Symbol as our bodies began to morph together.

Third Person

As the light died down, Rainbow Dash looked up at the new figure. It was a man slightly taller than Symbol. His hair was long and red, covering his back until it's end reached just past his knees with some parts draping over his shoulders. He wore a red overcoat with flame patterns on the wrists and ends. He held a dual bladed sword made of magma rock in his left hand while his right was burning with red fire. His eyes were red with mist seeping out of the edges.

"Wow, this feels...amazing!" It's echoed voice said while marvelling at its power.

"Yeah, I was like that the first time I fused as well." Now a normal voice or sounded like a deeper version of Symbols. "How about we name this form Volcanic?" He suggested.

"Better than anything I could come up with, let's do this!" The echoed voice exclaimed. Volcanic glared down at the Mimickers before him, smirking as he spun his blade.

The Mimickers did their thing and began to change shape, forming dark purple copies of Ashley and Symbol, their power increasing in the process.

"Imitation is the best form of flattery? I'd say it's just a way for someone to feel special by stealing the originals look. Oh well, I'll take it as a compliment." Volcanic spun his blade before pointing it at the small horde. "Let's see if you can land a good bit."

Rainbow Dash just looked at him in awe, her eyes sparkling. "So...awesome!" She looked to the Nightmares and smirked. "Well, looks like they'll be more of a challenge now, bring it on!"

"Are you sure you want to do that Rainbow? These things are almost as powerful as Symbol and Ashley." Volcanic asked with concern.

"I'll be alright big guy, if it gets too rough I'll bail, so don't you worry about me." Rainbow took a fight in stance while Volcanic chuckled.

The Nightmares either charged on the ground or by air. Rainbow shot up to the sky and began making hit and runs on the Nightmares with her speed. As a Nightmare Symbol held out a hand and fire a large beam of energy at Volcanic he blocked it with his magma blade and swiped at the copy, leaving a trail of fire in the area of the attack. The Nightmare spilt in two before bursting into flames and forming an orb.

A group of Nightmare Ashleys formed up and blasted Volcanic with high waves of fire, he grunted before pulling back and using his own fire to counteract it. He then changed forward and swung his blade while spinning it causing the effect of a buzz saw made of magma rock. The group disappeared into orbs and were then destroyed by Volcanics fire.

Rainbow Dash grabbed one of the Symbols and flew high up into the air before taking a nose dive with a sonic rainboom, throwing the Nightmare down and turning before she could hit the ground. The impact destroyed the copy as well as a large number of others and shook the ground a little.

Volcanic used this as a distraction and grabbed an Ashley in his hand which then tried to burn him and stab into his skin with tendrils. He crushed it and used its body to make a solid fireball which he threw at a group of Mimickers causing a large explosion.

A Symbol got behind Volcanic and began to rapidly fire a barrage of blasts and waves of fire at him. As Volcanic tried to block the blows he was pinned by an Ashley which had coated itself in fire and began to burn him. The Nightmares around them began to blast with everything they had, causing severe damage to the fusion.

He managed to raise a clenched fist into the air and brought it back down to earth with great force causing a large explosion of red energy. The blast threw the Nightmares off their feet and freed Volcanic from the Ashley that was holding him down. He quickly got up and coated the area in fire, destroying every Nightmare in the process.

Having taken too much damage Volcanic let out a sigh before his body turned white and he split back into Symbol and Ashley. The two landed with a loud thud and lay on their backs.

"So...that's fusion for you?" Ashley said between breaths.

"I don't...normally do fusion...but most of the time...yeah, it feels like that." Symbol gasped out, becoming increasingly tired as the fusion had taken a lot to maintain.

Ashley felt the effects as well, her eyes closing and both of them falling asleep. Fully restored Symph separated from his father and looked around the flaming area in confusion before seeing the state the two were in. "I need to stop going to sleep when my father is around, I miss too much." He grew two tendrils out of his back which he wrapped around them and began walking to their cabin.

Meanwhile Rainbow lay on a cloud, tired from the experience. "It was exhausting...but it was awesome." She said before falling asleep herself.

Author's Notes:

So, they fused.

To be honest with you guys I probably won't be writing this story much longer, it's not getting the attention it once did if it even did get any to begin with. No one comments anymore, the view count is shrinking and the like and dislikes have come to a halt. After the wedding I'm doing another story arch to end it off of things don't change. There's just no point in continuing this if it isn't worth my time.
