Sauron has been surprised by the storm, he was sure he could have gotten the effect he was looking for. The mare he has seen thanks to the Heart, she did the same thing and she wanted to include Light. Impossible, as light and darkness can’t be together. The potential destruction this spell can bring is far beyond even Sauron’s own desires to destroy.

The Dark Lord was standing quite the distance away. The ponies that have gathered in the center of the city, just in front of the Palace are still in great shock after what they have witnessed. Shining Armor and his guards too are in great awe, who wouldn’t after witnessing such power? The force of the spell could bring the tips of a great mountains down and maybe even more.

Sauron aimed high, thanks to this the shockwave wasn’t inflicting too much negative impact on the city. The ponies looked at him, and whispered among themselves commenting how strong he is, some feared him, some praised him and there were even ponies that grew hatred towards him. From fear, or perhaps from how he looked like? The ponies didn’t forget what armor he wore, and how he destroyed the barrier bringing all this havoc in the first place.

Cadence on her balcony had her eyes aimed at the hole in the storm that was slowly being filled with the clouds that just retreated from the city. Twilight would be fascinated for sure, she would demand to know how did he do it, and how did he accomplish the feat she just saw. Her daughter was sleeping, Flurry Heart would also be amazed by Sauron’s accomplishment right now.

Cadence herself was amazed, but one particular thing remained in her head, one question. What on earth was he thinking?! He could have brought much harm to the pony’s and her Empire if whatever he was planning went wrong. It’s quite unlikely he would have done something wrong, as he is a great mage as she sees, but still…

The morale of her guards was affected, if it went up or down, hard to tell. It should have went up, as they knew that a powerful mage is currently helping them, giving them a high chance of victory. It could have gone down, as they are currently taking care of this guest and any bad move may cause him to turn his back on them. Fighting such force would be devastating.

Shining Armor had to be careful, he can’t allow himself to lose to anger any time in the future as long as Sauron is in Cadences Empire. Sauron’s seems to be an emotional person that hides it inside of himself, he never was good at reading it from pony’s or non-pony’s, but he can tell that when Sauron said he has anger problems, he told them the truth.

Twilight sparkle was slowly waking up, her headache, and the eiderdowns that she lay underneath were thick and heavy. Twilight was all sweaty. Her horn was a little red on the end, she felt as if something constantly pushed on her horn, and at the same time she felt it stabbing her in her horn, especially on the tip.

Twilight growled, she felt weird, not only because she has hurt herself, but also because of outside factors like weather, or maybe that she just woke up with her left hoof? She also felt pulsing pain from the point where her horn ends, on her forehead. Twilight opened her eyes; her heavy eyelids made it harder for her to do.

She saw the medical wings room, all the beds around, there were no doctors around for the minute. It could be somepony went away to get something, or that perhaps Cadence and her brother finally are re-awakening the heart. Flurry Heart must be asleep if it is night. There is a chance she also takes part in the re-powering of the heart.

Twilight moved her head to the right, there was nopony here. She has to wait for somepony to get back if she wants to know what time it is, maybe even what day it is. Her memories were a little blurry, she remembers that she wanted to test how strong Sauron’s telekinesis was. He agreed, and they used a wooden sword to see which one of them is stronger.

Sauron’s approval of this showed her that he indeed doesn’t mean harm, if he really didn’t want to show it, he would have forever denied her requests hiding his power so that she may not know how strong at least in one factor he is. Meeting him wasn’t that bad too, although that ring he has on his finger, it interests her greatly.

It is hypnotizing, she can feel the dark magic in it, corrupting and misleading. Full of anger and hatred, guided to dominate other minds if one looks too long at it. Then again, he doesn’t seem to be affected by it, he looks normal, a little weird but normal. Of course, it may be his personality, or perhaps the ring is holding his true self closed in return for great power? That’s what artifacts made from dark magic tend to do.

The ring, a small trinket yet she wants to try and put it on her horn. That desire is very weak; however, it exists meaning that the ring may search for a new owner, other than Sauron. There is plenty of scenarios and her imagination could create millions of uses for this ring. It can be familiar to the Alicorn amulet, or a force that works the same as Nightmare Moon worked for Luna but closed in an object.

It is likely that Sauron may have taken his dark side and closed it in this object, using it to draw power from it while the negative effect is left in the ring that only shows it to skilled unicorns or Alicorns like her. It is only an assumption, he seems to be very sensitive while talking about the ring. There are many potential factors that could be the reason for it.

She didn’t have a drip-bag attached to one of her hooves, meaning that her state might have been better lately or wasn’t that bad from the beginning. Her horn was in a bandage, she didn’t want to touch it as she knew it would only hurt her more. Twilight moved the bed sheets away and tried to sit on her bed before stand on her four hooves.

She sat, and she got dizzy for a moment, but it went away quickly. She stretched her legs and front hooves a little, taking a few deep breaths and looking around she hasn’t noticed anypony in the medical wing currently. Good, the staff is healthy. She got off her bed and placed her hooves on the cold floor.

It might be a stupid idea to go for a walk just after she woke up, but she knows thanks to her books and other various sources that what happened to her doesn’t have many bad symptoms as consequences. She only needs to use less magic and use more of her hooves and finally use some of her ponies she commands back in ponyville to help her.

Of course, there are bad sides, she may now be more of a potential victim. If there will be a threat to deal with, she will be the weakest link in her squad. Of course, she must deal with her problem as quickly as she can and request somepony more specialized in medical spells to help her get back on track.

Twilight noticed that the overall temperature of the medical wings chamber is quite cold, too cold. A shiver went down her spine, maybe they forgot to turn on the furnaces in the palace? Could be, although it's also unlikely as the Crystal palace has as hardworking ponies serving here as there are in Canterlot.

Twilight opened the doors that lead outside of the medical wing, the rush of cold air only made her quickly shut the door. The cold was unbearable! Whatever has happened to the ponies that were responsible for keeping the palace warm have just lost their jobs. Not because of today, but because of her brother.

Twilight again opened the doors and this time she overcame the wind and came out of the medical wings area. The chilly temperatures woke her up even more, shaking from the cold Twilight started to move quicker to gain some warmth by moving, she started to gallop pretty fast as she was worried what was going on right now.

She didn’t see a living soul in the palace currently, something must be happening, and the cold is a sign that in fact there is a problem. Faust forbid be it the storm, and that it came to the city freezing everything around like back then when Flurry Heart broke the Crystal Heart. Running thru the hallways she finally saw a window she could sue to look outside.

Galloping towards it, she had a worried expression on her face. If there is something going on she won’t be able to help, and her skills would greatly help. She slithered a few meters across the floors as her hooves left scratches on the floor. Twilight looked outside to see what was happening, the window wasn’t to be opened as ice blocked her from doing it.

Twilights fears were true, the storm was the problem, but it seemed it wasn’t as advanced as she thought it is. Homes were frozen and the fields with valuable crops probably were dead by now. She also saw a big crowd on the left, Cadence must have ordered the ponies to gather and sing the Crystal Empire anthem to get rid of the storm.

Twilight galloped further down, running while going down especially on stairs with her condition was the best idea, but she had experience with running on stairs in the following years. She quickly the reached the floor on which the way to cadences balcony was. She had to ask questions, how did this happen? The heart itself without being active was strong enough to repel the storm after Flurry Hearts crystallization.

The guards noticed her running, they didn’t know how to react so naturally they tried to stop her. Twilight of course stopped before she hit one of them. The stallions did know she was in the medical wing, but they didn’t know that she woke up.

“Princess Twilight, you shouldn’t be here, please go back to the medical wing.” One said of the stallions, with a Deep voice that was quite charming.

“No, I won’t I need to know what’s going on!”

Cadence has heard her sister in law in the back, naturally she came from the balcony, and seeing Twilight standing here was much of a support especially at this time.

“Guards let her come.”

The two princesses approached each other and shared a quick hug before going back to business.

“Cadence, what’s going on?”

“It’s a very long story, we don’t have time.”

“Please tell me, I may help.”

Cadence had a hurt expression “You won’t help, because we are almost done with everything.”

“Cadence please.” Twilight pleaded.

Cadence didn’t want to wait any longer as the lives of her ponies mattered a lot, but Twilights pleas was another thing.

“Alright, somepony stole the Crystal Heart an-”

“How is this even possible?! I thought you’d have it protected well?”

“We did, however we found it, whatever has happened to the Heart has made it… go off so to speak. Sauron and Shining Armor have tried fighting off the storm, it wasn’t a bad struggle.”

Cadence took a pause to breath and shortly after continued.

“Sauron has done something incredible, he actually managed to fight the storm with his magic! It was spectacular, but he risked much by doing what he has done.”

“What? How exactly?” Twilight asked surprised, her voice having a tone of questioning and doubt.

“I don’t know, but he has cast a very powerful attack.” Cadence said with as much seriousness as she could muster. “Come, I’ll tell you more later.” Her voice held some sadness in the statement.

Cadence went out on her balcony, she cleared her throat and began her speech she made up in her head while Twilight was running down to meet her. Twilight stood back looking in awe at the big hole in the storm that was closing quite quickly. Did Sauron do this? How? Celestia and Luna had problems with the storm, and he did just that? Maybe it's not the power, that probably had an impact on the scale of the damage he has done the storm, but also his knowledge and experience. Its gained with years, how old can he really be?

“Ponies, today we have fought against the winds of the storm, but not any longer! The Crystal Heart is ready to be again protecting our homeland against the brutal forces of nature that with each second rise their hoof on our nation to hit it!”

The crowds cheered, they called her name and hailed her. The great leader of their nation has reassured that there is a chance of them not freezing, with the speech Cadence has started a fire in the Hearts of the ponies. Cadence has used her magic to make her voice as loud as Celestia’s or Lunas when they use their Canterlot voices.

“Let’s together sing the anthem, and let us in happiness and peace, enjoy yourself while the Heart protects us!”

Another speech, another cheers from the crowds down, under her Balcony, that filled the main street of the empire all the way to its borders with colorful ponies.

“The burring love in our hearts, the love in your words when you will sing the anthem, these words will melt the snow that violate the soil and homes! The water, that will splash our fields will make us stronger, we will use what the enemy has gave us against him! Love is the strongest force, it can change anything!”

The last words were full of patriotism and knowledge from Cadences own experience, Friendship is magic, but from friendship comes Love, without Love there is no chance for friendship and therefore magic. Twilight's friendship is a puny toothpick, while her love she uses, is the spear in the chest of the evil in the world.

The Crystal Ponies begin to sing the Crystal Empires anthem, Cadence has used her wings to fly around and further encourage her ponies to sing louder and with more force, with more love, soon they begin to illuminate the streets and the auras among them shined brightly. Twilight was seeing everything from the balcony.

She was sometimes ashamed to say it, but she didn’t see Cadence as a great speech giver, not a mare that has a strong voice. Her opinion might as well change today, she still would like to locate Sauron, however he didn’t see him from the Balcony, it might be he is somewhere else. Twilight slapped her wings and flew across the crowds to maybe see him there signing along, which of course proved to be a false believe.

‘Where can he be?’

Sauron has moved away, further back, to be on the opposite side and not hear the stupidest anthem he has ever dreamed of hearing actually being sung right now. With the squeakiest voices made by animals that are colorful. Mentioning the words and the composition is just to much even for him right now, love? Peace and happiness?! This is only a theory, a dream in real life.

He stated his opinion about love plenty of times already, no need to repeat it over and over again. He was thinking how can he possibly do what the mare wanted to, but right. He needs to think of something that could merge both light and darkness together, in small amounts he could force both of the elements to “coexist”.

In greater numbers the elements explode violently and aggressively inflicting much damage around. Nothing came to his mind, and he wanted to try and be stronger than the storm, not only to test himself, but also because destroying the storm would bring more appreciating from the pony’s side.

There is a weird feeling inside of him, something tells him that he is also doing it for the ponies, rather than pure gain to later use it and go back to Arda, if he even will be able to do it. After all he died, it could be that he as a Maia a powerful spirit has been put in this world for a reason, with or without Eru’s knowledge of him being here.

There still is plenty of time to discover the possibility for him going back or being stuck in this weird horse fantasy world. Sauron was half naked again, but the cold was nothing special, the cold was even a long not felt experience, grabbing himself by the head he thought further, how to destroy this cursed storm.

His renown would rise greatly. His prestige would be blinding others, his power would tremble the biggest walls in this world. The word of his feats would reach the biggest mages that would be interested in him and his goals, opinions and his own ideas. Maybe even he’d have the chance to use some powerful artifacts and empower himself?

Everything in time would merge into one, for now his accomplishments could be put on different floors. Levels, stories, segregations, buildings etc. When the time comes it will all merge and make his name known in all realms across the known world, he will write his name in the history books. With force, or words, magic and sorcery perhaps? The matter of it being good or bad isn’t important, what’s important is its happening.

He walked forth and backwards, even whispered out loud something to help himself think. He couldn’t think of anything, there is no way of having both darkness and light together, whatever the mare tried to do was a spell that meant failure, there is nothing that can do it.

Sauron looked at the storm, he saw the clouds as they were again beginning to get near, he also couldn’t ignore the fact that the streets begin to glow blue and that the whole palace became more crystal, more shiny and cleaner, whiter. His eyes weren’t followed by the colors and he saw the lavender entity flying in the air.

Twilight has woken up, perfectly to come to the party and dance together as the storm throws thunder at the ponies. The power these ponies must have, to light up the city to the point the magic is visible on such an scale is amazing. These ponies have more power inside of them then any known mortal in Arda.

“I wonder is she doing there.”

Sauron could feel the warmth of the words that the ponies sung, he did indeed give them some respect that even in such dark times like now they can sing about love and happiness. Did these ponies forget about the evil King Sombra as if it was nothing? The only thing he can do it sigh and look what will happen.

Then again, it's would be sad to see all those horses suffer… maybe he could think of something in the end.

Cadence was now currently repelling the thunderbolts that the storm was shooting at her ponies. Another one was just coming down, she flew up and her horn begin to glow with her blue magic. She shoot the energy beam and it hit the thunderbolt, both forces fought bravery, but the thunderbolt came to an end and Cadence could stop firing her magic.

Only a few verses more and everything will be ok. Cadence of course knew that Twilight has been flying around too but closer to the ground. Cadence didn’t bother on singing; her ponies have enough power to do it. The only thing she may now do is prevent any deaths from happening. It worried her how Twilight risked her life to find Sauron, he was somewhere but she doesn’t know here. Seeking him in the crowds won’t bring much in return.

Cadence flew towards Twilight, her sister in law didn’t see her approaching just flew further forward without stopping. Cadence however managed to keep up with Twilight, flying right next to her Cadence begin talking.

“Twilight! Stop for a minute!”

The two princesses hovered above the heads of the ponies, gaining some stares from other less pure individuals on the ground.

“The last time I saw him he was standing alone, it could be he went away to think in a calmer area without hearing us singing.”

“Where was he standing exactly?”

“Not so far away from the main street on the right side. Shining may know more but I don’t know here he is.”

Twilight was ready to fly away but Cadence pulled her towards her.

“When you get back, we need to talk about something. About Flurry.”

Getting a reassuring nod Cadence slowly moved away, and Twilight turned towards the direction where supposedly Sauron was once standing. The storm had other plans for her and also for Cadence, as the storm has sent another thunderbolt down, this time towards Twilight. The unequinely loud sound of the lighting reaped thru the sky.

Cadence turned her back and she gasped, she flapped her wings with all her force, she used her magic to create a shield around her, while doing so Twilight also saw the incoming lighting coming down for her. Yet a surprise came, with her Cadence.

Her sister in law got in the way of the thunder strike, she pushed Twilight away while the lighting hit the Princess of love, sending her down towards the ground. Twilight regained balance and saw as Cadence fell down in smoke, her body hurt, and her feathers burned.

“Cadence!” Cried Twilight.

She flew with amazing speeds to catch her sister in law, she left a lavender trace behind of her as she flew. Eventually Twilight was close enough to extend her hooves and cath Cadence before the ground. Twilight descended down on the ground, the ponies saw this and stopped their singing. With them more and more ponies. The more stopped singing the more whispers appeared and the crowds begin to form around Twilight and Cadence.

Shining rumor got through the crowds and managed to get to Twilight and Cadence. Cadence was in a bad condition, but she was breathing, her shield wasn’t complete, and it seemed some of the thunderbolts electricity has hit her. Cadence wasn’t dead, but she was hurt badly, it may be that the shock has made her fall unconscious due to the sudden pain. A normal pony would die, but she was an Alicorn.

“No, no, no, no!” Shining said and he got closer to her wife, nuzzling her. “W-What has happened?!”

“I-I, we wanted to fly away, but then the-”

“Quick get me a medic!” Shining yelled.

Cadence was in a stable condition so to say. The damage that was done wasn’t strong and she could live. It was all her fault, she could have thought herself that he isn’t here after not seeing him earlier, but she hoped he would be with the ponies.

“I’m sorry its my fault, I shouldn’t have looked for him, and she wouldn’t have to protect me.”

“Don’t say things like that, it's not your fault!” Shining said worried. “Go find that blond bastard and order him to do what he has done.”

The medic has made it thru the crowds, together with two additional assistants they have placed Cadence on a stretcher. Shining accompanied the ponies, Twilight wanted to go to but Shining has recalled himself that her sister is behind him. Shining turned towards her and looked her into her eyes.

“I’ll take care of her and the Crystal ponies, you, please go.”

Cadence was escorted back into the palace, Shining has went with them. Some ponies begin singing again and some never stopped even when they knew that Cadence has fallen. A large chunk of the ponies have stopped singing, making the efforts go down and having to again sing the anthem from the beginning, only giving the storm more time to again strike them.

Guards all over the place got into position, Pegasus’s tried use clouds closer the ground as shields but the thunder strikes would go past the clouds. Twilight flew away to find Sauron and maybe help him reconstruct what he has done so that it may have a better effect then before. She has looked around and she didn’t see him, only empty streets. She flew more to the right and even more behind the palace.

Finally, she has located him, she flew towards him, the singing was harder to notice at that distance, almost perfectly behind the palace, far away and alone. He seemed nervous, he looked angry and frustrated, the snow around him was definitely melting and the ground near was wet rather then covered with snow.

Her brother sure was making progress, the streets again begin to be shining with blue. Sauron was also noticing this, and he was trying some sort of spells it seems, she could see from the distance that his hands glow orange and he held fire in his left palm. Twilight landed near him, he didn’t seem to notice her land, he was thinking, he didn’t even bother to turn towards her. He was focused on whatever he was thinking about.

“Sauron?”

Twilight got his attention, he looked at her, with his hands behind him, this time without magic being on them. The two powerful beings looked at themselves, thunder was tearing the sky above with its mighty roars and these two just looked at each other. Sauron finally broke the silence that seemed to weight one thousand tones.

“Yes?” He asked bluntly, and disrespectfully.

“Please you need to help us.” Twilight took a few steps forward.

“I’m trying to think, and I am helping, I helped more than every of your guards put together.”

With that he begin to walk back and forth again, Twilight couldn’t stand it, she had to say something.

“How can you say it like that? Cadence is hurt, and my brother is taking the responsibility for the ponies re-awakening the heart right now.” She did two additional steps forwards.

Sauron looked at her, and he stopped his thinking to listen her out. “He is an adult I think, he will be able to handle some responsibility.” Answered the Dark Lord. “Why exactly is Cadence hurt?”

“She was hit by the thunder, it wouldn’t have happened if you stood closer to the crowds and not here alone, separated by dozens of homes… Why are you here? I understand that thinking in silence is better. But to go so far away?”

“The sounds are one thing, I’ll tell you something” He started with a smirk “I could whistand the loudest screams and noises there are, I wouldn’t mind them. The anthem too, I don’t care you sing it, it doesn’t disturb me.” He said the truth, and Twilight could hear it.

“Then why did you go so far away?”

“Because of the message it holds Princess.” He said extending the ‘s’ like a treacherous and poisonous snake.

Twilight was taken back by what has Sauron said, why was he disturbed by the message of the anthem? They only held good words, hopes, the spirit of the nation and its citizens. Why? What being could be disturbed by something so sweet and needed in the world?

“I don’t understand.”

Sauron looked at her, with cold eyes, emotionless expression and quite aggressive posture.

“You won’t for a long time… You came here seeking my power assistance in doing harm towards the storm?”

“Yes.” She said, although she forced the response.

“I could do it, but I want to do it properly. The problem is, I don’t know how.” He said shrugging his arms. “The trick is to merge both light and darkness together”.

Twilight repeated that, she doesn’t know how to do it.

“How did you come up with such hard task? Where did this idea come from?”

“Easily, darkness is to fight the darkness in the storm, and light is a power up to lighting and fire that need to be mixed together. This makes the attack powerful enough to destroy the storm for good, but it needs to be one. Not separate or else it won’t work.”

“I-I can’t help you with this, I never used dark magic nor shadows in my magic, as It is evil, it is corrupting, and it is outlawed to use dark magic in Equestrian and the Crystal Empire.” Twilight stated. “How could you even think of using it? Is there no other way? Don’t you fear it might have an bad effect on you?”

Sauron rolled his eyes and he sat on the ground with crossed legs, he was now perfectly at Twilight's level. He ignored the wet ground, he ignored that his clothes might get wet, he just sat there and placed his hands on his lap.

“Princess Twilight, tell me did Princess Celestia or Perhaps Luna ever use dark magic, tell me, be honest.”

Twilight got closer to Him, she also sat down in front of him.

“Yes, they did, but only in critical situations.”

“How many times, you don’t have to be precise, just tell me how many times.”

“I don’t know, but it would be a decent number.”

“Now tell me, is Celestia lisp or sick because of dark magic? I know for a fact Luna has been overtaken by dark magic, but not hurt by it. Two different things”

“Well, no, but this doesn-”

“It does, my own experience has taught me that it is indeed a shameful force, but a powerful one. I have trained myself and I can control it.” He raised his hand and pointing finger.

“The area around may be touched by it!” Twilight protested, her wings went slightly up.

“I can guarantee you it won’t, I’m a master at manipulating magic.”

They sat in silence, looking each other into their eyes, Twilight wanted to say something, but she didn’t know what, until one thunder again broke the silence. Sauron spoke again.

“You’re smart.”

Twilight looked up, as her cheeks went a little red by what she has heard.

“W-What?”

“I said that you’re smart. I talked with Luna and Celestia, yet when I talk with you, I can tell that I’m talking with an more intelligent pony.”

Twilights definitely didn’t expect that to be said. Her cheeks became even more red, she was embarrassed, but then again it warmed her up. She felt good hearing this from him, especially when he said it after mentioning Luna and Celestia.

“I have been thinking, trying to create something new, yet I didn’t come up with anything. I know you have been a librarian.”

“Who told you?” Twilight asked even more embarrassed that he knows her more “peasant” side.

“Your mentor and who other? You like to read, and from reading you gain knowledge, and knowledge is power, power is everywhere, be it good or bad it is everywhere, power, mental power, physical, magical, elemental, or even power as speed. Everywhere is power and I value power above everything else, because when you have power you have the ability to do something, if you have enough of it you could control the whole world.”

Twilight listed closely to his philosophy.

“Power to save lives, power to kill. Power is everywhere, in love, happiness, in war. You are a smart pony and you have the power to help me.”

Again, he mentioned that she is smart, it made her blush harder.

“Power can be defined as energy, but I like to call it a force, a reason, a bridge to your goal. Something that links two objects that normally are hard to achieve in a natural way. The power to find a solution to a problem, I could think and think and eventually I would find a way to do what I want to do. But I can’t speed up progress, I don’t have the power. But maybe you have?”

“I don’t think so.”

“Smart people think all the time, if a few chats made me think you are the smartest from the princesses, you can prove to me that this opinion shall remain stable.”

He put his hand on her shoulder.

“Do you have an idea, how to mix these two bloody elements together? Even fairy tale like idea is always good to try out…”

Twilight was warmed up by these words, but she doesn’t know how to merge darkness and light together. She tried to think of something that she read in her books about magic, or even as Sauron suggested pony fairy tales but she found nothing. She ain’t Fluttershy that can make everything, regardless of what it is be in peace. Or Discord that can warp the reality to the point it looks like two things are in peace. Or Anarchy their son, who can do both things but quicker thanks to the teachings of both parents.

Anarchy makes it so easy, he just paints it, he uses some kind of artistic layers or something, to then with his magic put everything together, and make it one.

“Layers…”

“Hmmm?”

“Layers!” She yelled and raised her head, hitting Sauron’s Jaw by doing so.

“Tsk!”

“I’m sorry, but the answer are layers!” She said happily.

“What do you mean by ‘layers’?”

“You need to make it whole, by building it separately from layers, each element must be separate, those that can merge can be together, but darkness or light has to be on a separate layer. It will be a whole attack. They will be one, in peace.”

Sauron imagined it I his head, he could create the projectile from three elements and then close it with darkness or light, in the end if the attack hits the cloud it will hit it at once. Light will meet with darkness eventually due to being pushed into the other elements because of the storm!

He stood up, and looked at the sky, he could tell that the Crystal ponies are almost done with their re-awakening of the Crystal Heart, the city was partially frozen, and the clouds have swallowed a decent part of the city again. The hole he has created earlier has already closed, he only needs to do the final attack. And give the ponies some more time.

Sauron begin to gather his magic into his hand, the fire has grown in his left palm and it was sucked from the air, as it appeared around him. The fire became brighter and hotter as Sauron’s hand was more and more covered in his orange magic. Looking as if his hand became made out of magic. He loaded up the spell in his left hand and extended his right hand towards the sky.

The sky growled and a thunder strike thick like never before has descended upon Sauron that on contact gripped the thunderbolt and with his own magic increased its power while the rest of the thunder was absorbed into his closed fist. When it stopped electricity could be seen sparking on Sauron’s body. While the hot fire in his left palm made the air around be pushed away because of the thrust of Sauron’s magic.

Sauron clapped his hand, and as he did it, he has send a powerful wave of force that destroyed the nearby walls and delivered decent amount of damage to the infrastructure. He spread his hand and a thin spear like object formed made from orange lighting.

Sauron grabbed the spear and released into it darkness, shadow, that darkened it, his hands became dark purple and the orange lighting way darker and sinister, Twilight stood right next to Sauron and she could see that the plants around started to die. The shadows the homes casted on the streets all blackened the street and connected themselves to Sauron’s feet.

When Sauron finished, he held in his hands a powerful weapon made completely out of magic. Sauron used telekinesis to make it float in front of him, it was fire that looked like a web, the strings were made out of purple lighting. The spear was quite thick, of course it had much magic in it. He wrapped it in light, a layer that was oval, it wasn’t blinding him or Twilight, it was more of an armor, or glass. A transparent, grey magical substance that closed the spear inside from the outside world.

Sauron got into position and threw the speaker at the clouds, just then the streets were illuminated with azure blue and the light under them shined brightly. Twilight knew what it meant, Sauron didn’t know exactly what, but he guessed what it could be. The spear hit the clouds, but nothing has happened, it only was let into the storm deep inside of it.

The streets quickly lost their shining blue color as the light quickly rushed towards the center, Sauron could feel the magic, extreme amounts of it were send towards the spiral tower, he only hoped the Heart wouldn’t throw him out from the city and leave him stay where he is.

A loud deafening explosion was seen in the skies, the clouds just vanished, in an instant more than one thirds of them disappeared. Leaving a shiny orb in the middle that was blown away by the wind, a shockwave was sent across the clouds. An impressive force of wind has washed over the city, reaping the snow from the rooftops but nothing more than that.
