Twilight shifted a bit nervously, “Are you sure Page?”

“What, don’t think you can handle me?” I asked with a smile and shifted my position slightly, stretching my wings.

She frowned, “Not that, don’t want to hurt you.”

“Sparky, I usually do this with Luna,” I said and moved up next to her, “Relax, I know what I’m doing.”

Twilight still looked unsure before she nodded, “Okay, we’ll be careful.”

“Luna is watching, she’s good with healing spells,” I said and moved across the training ground before turning to face her again, “Come on Sparky, it’ll be fun.”

Twilight looked over at Sunset where the unicorn were sitting next to Luna, Celestia, Cadence and Shining Armor.

The smile she got from Sunny seemed to have encouraged her, so she nodded and turned back to me, “Okay, let’s do this then.”

“Kick his tail Twilight!”

That would be Rainbow Dash from where the elements were watching from across the area from where the Princesses were.

Channeling my magic, I readied my spells.

Twilight moved first, sending a purple bolt of magic in my direction. The magic snarled across the space between us and I readied everything I had knowing how strong she was.

I layered shields, angled them to redirect the force and dug my horn hooves into the dirt, leaning into it.

I was completely ready for it and it was pretty much the only reason I wasn’t throw across the training ground with broken ribs.

Shining Armor hit hard. Sunset Shimmer hits harder.

Luna hit like a truck when she wanted to.

Twilight made Luna look like a playful swat from Fern and that was without even trying to hurt me. Had she really put some power behind that spell, I would have been a greasy stain on the ground.

Gritting my teeth, I let my shield drop, the remains of her spell sparkling around me.

Note to self, don’t block her.

Conjuring a spear of ice, I sent it in her general direction as I flapped my wings, throwing myself out of the way of a second spell, this one just as strong as the first one.

Alicorn of Friendship. Alicorn of Magic.

Alicorn of Magic mean a lot more when she’s throwing spells your way.

Oh Shit!

A second flap of my wings sent me back the way I came, narrowly missing a spear of ice. Not only was she strong, she was also insanely frustrating!

If she saw a spell, she could pretty much cast it.

In short, Twilight was complete bullshit.

Casting another spell, this one a beam of force at the ground next to her, forcing her to throw up a shield as the spell blasted up a cloud of dust around her.

Another spell and there were four of me and I cast another spell quickly behind it, teleporting onto the balcony above before settling down next to Sunset, stealing her drink.

She frowned a bit at me as Twilight ducked and shielded spells from my illusions below as she tried to figure out which one was real.

“Don’t you think this is cheating?” Sunset asked with a raised eyebrow.

“If you aren’t cheating, you aren’t trying to win,” I said with a grin, “But it does take some of the fun out if it I have to admit.”

A bright light from below ripped the entire illusions below into sparkled. Seems Sparky has gotten tired of ducking fake spells.

Channeling my magic, I teleported back down.

Shaking of the normal disorientation that make teleporting a pain to use, I sent a spell in Twilight's general direction once more, I let the mist fade away along with the copies of me.

Twilight looked significantly dustier than when we started and I smiled at her, stretching my wings, “Come on, Sparks. That wasn’t even close.”

She was looking somewhat annoyed by now.

A spear of force ripped through the illusion of me right next to me and I stepped into the place it was in, dropping the invisibility spell.

Her horn flashed bright and the illusion broke again around me.

Twilight blinked at me in surprise and then her horn flashed again, “…How are you doing that?”

“Doing what?” I asked with a smile, charging up a spell, sending a kinetic spell towards her. She didn’t do a thing to shield against it and it hit her low in the shoulder, sending her rolling onto the ground.

Gasping in surprise, she struggled back onto her hooves, “W-what!?”

“Hmm?” I asked and cast another quick illusion, wrapping myself in invisibility as I moved out of the illusion of myself, running forward.

Twilight looked around and then her horn flashed, the illusion shattering and my invisibility fading away before squeaking in surprise to find me right in her face as I pounced on her.

Tackling her over, I tapped my horn against her head, “Slee… what?”

That’s not rig… a kinetic spell from behind slapped into me, sending me rolling across the dusty ground.

Ow.

“I can do illusions too,” Twilight said with a smile, her image fading away where it had been on the ground.

I just looked at her for a moment before I let my chin drop back onto the ground as I sighed, “…Sparkle OP, plz nerf.”
