I heard the noises of battle, teeth clashing on scales, screaming, then I heard something else. The noise of beating wings and the noise of magic. I heard ponies of all types, earth ponies destroying the armies on the ground, under the radar of the flying changelings. Pegasi battling with swords in their hooves and armor on their backs, shouting orders to their fleets. Unicorns behind the walls of Canterlot, using magic to hurl missiles at the armies of Chrysalis.
When suddenly, I heard something completely new. Beneath the clashing of weapons and armor I heard a deep, earthly noise. It sounded like the very dirt beneath our hooves was crumbling. And indeed it was, for soon a section of the earth caved in and somepony flew out. "P...Princess… Luna?" stuttered Wave. I heard a different noise than normal unicorn magic, it was stronger somehow. Louder. It was coming from all directions at once, the noise of a magic shield. It had to be. Luna was protecting us. I wondered if the Princesses had some sort of mental connection. I heard less and less ponies, though. And I heard a thumping noise at the magic barrier, it was being pounded on by changelings. "Now or never," I tapped to Wave. We stood on back hooves and wrapped our wings around each other. "If I remember correctly, to maximize the magic," I started tapping to Wave, before she interrupted me. "I know," she tapped back. Then I felt the same magical surge that I felt with Twilight's horn on my wing. Only this time, it was even stronger. If Wave hadn't been there to hold me up, I would have fallen flat on my face. But she was, and we both rested on each other. We hugged tighter, and the magic became stronger. I wondered what would happen if…
In the next instant everything became a blur. I didn't know what was happening, nothing made any noise at all. The one thing I knew? Wave was kissing me. The world just sort of melted. I felt nothing, heard nothing, there was only us. We stood there for what seemed like hours, I never wanted to leave. And for now, I didn't have to. The world sort of came back gradually, first the ground beneath us, then the air, then the sounds. But it no longer sounded like a battle. It sounded… it sounded like cheering. It had to be, there was nothing else that sounded nearly this happy. I couldn't make out any words, just this general happy and joyous feeling that flowed through me like magic. To an extent, it was magic. The first words I made out were these:
"WE WON!"
I didn't recognize the voice, but soon at least a thousand separate voices were chanting the words. The words were those of victory. "We won," tapped Wave, "The changelings are gone." "Really?" I signed, smiling. "Really really," she tapped back. I picked her up, I flew around in circles with her in my hooves and tapped, "Wow." "Wow is right, I didn't know that was possible," she tapped back. "Well," I tapped jokingly, "Apparently it was."
