Sorry For The Delay

CHAPTER 44

Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer walk towards their room but in Twilight's mind still playing what hologram Applejack said

*Flashback*

Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer look at hologram Applejack. "His sister's death is the main reason but there are few reason why he becomes Earth Protector," said hologram Applejack. "Can you tell us about it?" asked Sunset. "I can tell you just brief. You have to ask him yourself about that," said hologram. Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer nod. "When Sombra spread his darkness into his world, his friends leave him, his lover betray him and everything around him treat him like a garbage and dangerous disease," said hologram Applejack as both Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer shock. "That's horrible," said Sunset. "His teammates that fight alongside with him perish in the battle," said hologram Applejack. "That could be reason why he handles everything alone. Why he pushes himself beyond his limits," said Sunset

*End Flashback*

Twilight Sparkle grips her hands. 'If he thinks we're going to let that happen, he's sadly mistaken' thinks Twilight.

Taichi looks at the field where hologram Griffon High team are position. 'We need more than just speed to defeat Griffon High but I never try facing Griffon Wall so I wonder how strong that wall is' thinks Taichi. "Tai, heads up!" Taichi looks up and sees the ball coming towards him. He jumps, spins his body and kicks the ball hard. The ball moves pass the Griffon Wall and hits the back of the net. Taichi looks at Spitfire, Rainbow Dash and Flitter that run towards him. "Sorry Spits, I guess my mind was elsewhere," said Taichi as he smiles sheepishly. "You sure you're okay?" asked Rainbow. Taichi nods.

At night, Taichi stands at the clear area as Starwirl appears beside him. Twilight Sparkle, Sunset Shimmer, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack and Pinkie Pie look at Taichi that closes his eyes as his wings spread on his back and his orange aura surrounds him. Suddenly his aura bursts as his pair of wings change to 4 pairs of wings. Mane 7 looks in awe. Taichi grips his hand and punch the ground, creating a wave towards the rock. He pants heavily as his 4 pair of wings disappear. Applejack and Fluttershy run towards Taichi, follows by others. Taichi grips his hands. 'It is still not enough. I need to train more. I need to push myself' thinks Taichi as he closes his eyes again. Fluttershy looks at him, sadly. 'Tai' thinks Fluttershy. His aura burst again and his 4 pair of wings appear. 'I need to maintain it' thinks Taichi. Few minutes later, the 4 pair of wings disappear and Taichi falls to the ground, fainted. Starswirl sighs. "He's not fully recover and yet he wants to start the intensive training," said Starswirl. Twilight Sparkle sighs. "It is all because of his burden. He carries it himself alone," said Twilight.

The next day, Taichi sits on the ground at the clear area, meditating. Twilight Sparkle walks towards him slowly. "What is it?" asked Taichi, with his eyes still close. "We still have one conversation left," said Twilight. "Can we do it another time?" asked Taichi. "Well, since you'll disappear everytime either go practice with Wonderbolts or do intensive training, so now it is a good time," said Twilight. Taichi chuckles. "You won't let me meditate in peace huh," said Taichi. Twilight Sparkle sits in front of him. "Why carry the burden alone, Tai?" asked Twilight. Taichi open his eyes. "Is being Earth Defenders force you to carry that burden?" asked Twilight. Taichi sighs.

"Come on AJ, can't you do it quickly?" Taichi and Twilight Sparkle look at Applejack that tries to start a fire with 2 woods as Rainbow Dash stands beside her. In front of them is a fireplace with small woods enough to make a fire. "I'm trying but the woods are wet," said Applejack. Taichi sighs as he narrows his eyes towards the fireplace and fires a red beam. The beam hits the woods thus creating the fire. Rainbow Dash looks in awe as Applejack looks at her boyfriend. "You could have warn us," said Applejack. Taichi chuckles. Twilight Sparkle looks at him. "You didn't answer my question, Tai," said Twilight. Taichi stands up. "Ask me again when you witness your family been killed in front of you, your friends turn their back away from you and you killed your sibing that been possessed by darkness," said Taichi. Twilight Sparkle just watches Taichi walks towards Applejack.

That night, Taichi in his 4 pair of wings face another shadow as the Mane 7 train with their Harmony weapon. Twilight Sparkle glances towards Taichi that sword-fighting with the shadow. 'Was your burden really hard that you decide to carry on your own and refuse any help from us' wonders Twilight. "Twi, heads up!" Twilight looks up and sees a root lures towards her. Rainbow Dash lands in front of her and slashes the root into two. "Twilight, stay focus. We're in the middle of our training," said Rainbow.

The shadow swings the sword towards Taichi repeatedly as Taichi avoids it. 'I must get stronger so I can win any battle. I will get stronger for the sake of my love ones. I WILL GET STRONGER!' think Taichi. Suddenly he feels a burst inside his head as his eyes becomes full brown with black dot in the middle. The shadow fires his multiple beams from its back as Taichi avoids it real fast. Taichi narrow his eyes. 'Time to end this battle' thinks Taichi as he deflects the shadow's sword with his left sword while he slashes the torse with his right sword. The shadow roars and disappears. Taichi's 4 pair of wings disappear as he falls to thr ground. Fluttershy looks at Starswirl that appears beside the fainted Earth Defender. "Is he okay?" asked Fluttershy. "He just fainted. He just need some rest," said Starswirl. "Which we all know he won't do that," said Twilight. "I'll leave him to you," said Starswirl as he disappears. Sunset Shimmer looks at her bookworm best friend. "So, what's your plan?" asked Sunset. "Simple, we help him rest by distract him. But we need clothes like bunny suit," said Twilight. Rarity smirks. "I believe I do have bunny suit in my house but I'm not sure it suits his taste," said Rarity. Rainbow Dash smirks. "I'll ask him after the final match," said Rainbow.

2 weeks later, Spitfire stands in front of Taichi and the Wonderbolts, fully dressed in jersy and shorts. "Okay listen up. This is the time we defeat Griffin High. I don't want any of you making any mistake that can cost us to get our butt kick again. Understand?!" yelled Spitfire. "Yes Maam!" yelled the Wonderbolts. Spitfire looks at Taichi that nods. "Well then, let's go and win the cup!" yelled Spitfire as the Wonderbolts roar as they jog towards the field. Taichi sighs. 'Its showtime' think Taichi as he walks towards the field.

Twilight Sparkle, Sunset Shimmer, Rarity and Pinkie Pie sit at the stadium chair, looking at the field. "The game is about to start. Oh I can't wait," said Pinkie. "Where's Applejack and Fluttershy? They should be here by now," said Rarity. "They're on the way, Rarity," said Sunset. "Hope they can get here faster because the game is about to start," said Rarity.

Taichi takes a deep breath as he looks at Griffon High players. Rainbow Dash looks at him. "You're ready, Tai?" asked Rainbow. Taichi smirks. "Oh yeah, time to nuke them," said Taichi as he grins. Rainbow Dash grins back. Referee blows the whistle as Flitter passes the ball to Rainbow Dash. Taichi runs towards the goal post.
