Hey guys I want to thank you all for your suggestions on the girl's Soul Aura's. So here's the next chapter and I hope you enjoy it. ON WITH THE STORY!

After the cultist massacre a few days ago everything was going back to normal. But just to be sure I had put up a little barrier so if another cultist set hoof within a thousand meters of Ponyville I would know of it.

I even went as far as to do it to every major settlement and had my informants be ready to stop them if need be. But it seems the bastard's learn quick since there hasn't been a single sign of them after I found there last group.

But right now I was waiting for my friends to return in the field where I train.

Spike would have been there but he said he had some things to do so I didn't question it. The little dragon has really grown up a lot and has earned my respect with his determination. I can honestly say that I'm proud of the lizard.

I was broken from my thought by the appearance of a dark portal a few feet away.

I saw everyone step out of the portal and I was surprised at what they were wearing.

They all had on the same outfit just suited to fit each ones size.

The outfits were a pure silver color that covered all their hoofs, torso's, and heads. On their chest was the symbol of the Reaper Knights which was a black scythe in front of a ponies skull.

"Glad to see all of you guys back. And in such fitting attire," I greeted.

"Good to see you to love," said Celestia as she walked up and gave me a quick kiss.

"Even ah must say these snazzy outfits feel nice," said Aj

They then begin to talk about the outfits and how comfortable or cool looking they were.

I gave an amused smile before hardening my gaze, "well you may be back from training but I want to know how strong you really are. So I'm going to test you girls personally. Night, Gem, Chaotic, Aegis, and Jenn, you guys can stay and watch or go relax since I already know what each of you guys can do."

They all give a nod as the girls walk to the opposite end of the field and the others go off to the side to watch the fight.

I see the determined gazes of the girls and smile at how much they have changed before speaking, "alright! I'm going to be testing you in three phases. First is regular combat as we are now, second is stage one of your Soul Aura's, and third is stage two of your Soul Aura's. I will announce each phase agreed?"

The girls nod in agreement and get into fighting stances.

I get into my own stance and yell, "BEGIN!"

Instantly Dash and Aj charge me while Rarity and Twi fire beams of magic, and Pinkie fired her canon at me to keep me distracted. The others stand ready waiting for an opening to strike.

I deflect the beams with beams of my own while waiting for Dash and Aj to reach me. When they do the both throw punches at me with great speed with Dash attacking high and Aj striking low. Even so I block all of their strikes before I see an opening and knock them both back with a punch kick combo.

I just barely had time to block a sneak attack from Shy and Luna as Celestia appeared before me already in the process of delivering a magic enhanced haymaker.

Even with my position I managed to move my head to the side in order to dodge the strike while giving a powerful buck to Shy and Luna and a quick uppercut to Celestia.

"Alright that was good but now lets see what your Soul Aura's can do," I called.

They then Changed into their first stages and I was really impressed with what I saw.

Twi's aura was a simple dark purple armor and had a longbow.

Rarity's was a simple gown with a bow staff.

Pinkie's was a mesh armor with a mini canon on her back.

Aj had a mesh armor like Pinkie but had a whip-like lasso with a bladed end and a 10 inch knife strapped to one of her legs.

Dash had a ninja like outfit with some places being armored and had a katana.

Shy had a cloak on and held an automatic crossbow with a small dagger strapped to her side.

Luna had knight armor with a double-sided sword.

Celestia had armor like Luna's but instead had a staff with a large blade on one end.

I went into my one first stage knowing this may be a challenge.

Twi fired a an arrow at me that seemed to turn into a lightning bolt as it came at me. I quickly dove to the side to avoid it.

'So she magically infuses her arrows to give them an elemental ability. Very impressive,' I thought.

Pinkie fired her canon and Shy unleashed a hail of crossbow bolts.

I teleported away from the danger just in time to see Shy's bolts turn the ground to stone where the arrows hit and Pinkie's shot turn into a miniature black hole for a second to suck in the ground where it hit.

'Pinkie's shots open miniature black holes so even if she doesn't make contact if the enemy isn't out of range they are still sucked in to the vortex. And Shy's bolts paralyze her enemies by turning the points she strikes to stone. Together those two could be devastating.'

Aj then decided to step in with Dash as she flung her whip at me and Dash charged in with increased speed.

I jumped to avoid Aj's whip and was glad I did because where the whip struck small rock spikes came out of the ground. Using my Scythe I blocked Dash's sword and jumped back. She didn't come after me though and instead swung her sword at me. On instinct I dodged to the side as I felt a rush of wind go by me. Turning around I saw ten trees fall down as if cut by a blade.

'Aj's whip unleashes earth based attacks wherever it lands and Dash's sword allows her to unleash blades of wind when she swings. Land and sky attacks together are sure to keep an opponent busy.'

Lastly Celestia and Luna came at me as soon as I landed back on the ground.

Luna came in swing her double-sided sword as if it was a dance. I was able to block her strikes easily enough but when I pushed her back she gave a final swing of her blades and a volley of stars shot out. Jumping back I saw them cut through the ground like butter before they disappeared.

I barely had time to register this as Celestia came down with an overhead swing. Teleporting to the other side of the clearing I saw where I just was erupted in a dome of fire so hot I it was making me sweat from here!

'HOLY SHIT! Luna gets in close to her opponent and then gains some distance to unleash a devastating surprise attack while Celestia can deal out strikes that give off as much heat as her sun! Maybe even hotter!"

I give a small smile and say, "Now this is what I'm talking about."

How was that? I am making a second part to this so don't worry. I hope you like what I chose from some of your suggestions and that I added a little something to each of them. Review and PM me your questions. Until then Nicranger out.
