Chapter 187: New Friends Come to Equestria Part 3: Larxene's Downfall
In the Nobody stronghold, Vexen and Demyx had just gotten out of the healing chamber after Larxene attacked them, both reporting to Xemnas to inform him of what had just happened, which Xemnas was not very pleased with what he heard as both he and Ansem were looking out the window and into the city below them where the Heartless were patrolling, tturning back to Demyx and Vexen, not looking pleased.
"This news you bring us is most disturbing." Xemnas said. "If Larxene did take one of the crystals-"
"If!?" Vexen asked, looking annoyed. "There are no ifs about it! Larxene took one of the crystals and they aren't even close to ready yet!"
"What's the big deal about them?" Demyx asked. "They just provide a power boost, right?"
"Hah, you wish." Vexen replied. "Those crystals do contain very powerful energies, but the energy itself is highly unstable. If she stabs herself with that crystal, she'll be given an extreme boost to her powers, but that power will cause her to loose her mind, destroying her sanity and her body. Those crystals are too dangerous, even for us Nobodies."
"Then we need to go after her!" Demyx said. "She's probably at the final world she was sent to target!"
"I'm afraid she isn't there." Xemnas said, surprising him. A moment later, he pulled up a world map, revealing it to them as they looked at it, wondering what Xemnas had to show. "The world that Larxene is on is Mobius, which is the homeworld of Sonic the Hedgehog." It then changed to reveal Sonic, who was winking and giving them a thumbs up. "He is fast, I will give you that, but his world is insignificant."
"Wait, Mobius is not the final target?" Demyx asked.
"No, it is not." Ansem replied. "That world has too many frail and weak hearts, putting it at the bottom of our scope. But I believe Larxene went there for another reason."
"And what reason is that?" Vexen asked.
"Revenge." Xemnas replied. "Sonic is a friend of Spyro's and will more than likely go to help him if their world is in danger. My guess is that Larxene will try to attack it and try to get his attention so she can get some revenge."
"But in her current state, if she uses the crystal, she'll die." Vexen said. "We have to get to her before she uses the crystal."
"But what if she does use it?" Demyx asked. "Are we strong enough to fight her on our own?"
"Let us hope that we are." Xemnas said, turning to the window. "Vexen, I need you to go get Sïax and Luxord. Let them know what's going on and have them meet me here in the command room. Demyx, continue your mission and find out what Malefor is up to."
Both Nobodies bowed to him, walking out of the room to leave Ansem and Vexen alone to discuss their next move, but as they left, Demyx opened a corridor to walk through when Vexen put his hand on his shoulder, stopping Demyx and making him look at him.
"Ansem and Xemnas are fools to think that Sïax and Luxord have a chance at stopping Larxene." Vexen said. "If we're going to have any hope of stopping her, we need an ace in the hole."
"What are you getting at?" Demyx asked
Meanwhile in Equestria, Spyro had woken everyone else up, much to their dismay as they all gathered in the room he and Rarity shared, seeing how exhausted some of them looked and were bearely able to stay awake.
"Thank you everyone for coming." Spyro said, seeing his friends completely exhausted.
"Like we had a choice." Rainbow Dash said, yawning. "It's literally four in the morning. What's so important that it couldn't wait until morning?"
"Three worlds have been destroyed by Organization XIII." Spyro announced, which woke everyone up as their eyes lit up, wide with shock.
"Wait, you serious!?" Rainbow Dash shouted, everyone shushing her to try and keep the noise down. "But how?"
"They found the Keyholes to each of the worlds, which if a Heartless gets into it, that world's heart is consumed." Spyro replied. "And the inhabitants will either be lost or scattered to other worlds. The strongest hearts being either turned to Summoning gems or placed into Traverse Town until they can return home."
"And that's where they came from?" Octavia asked, pointing to the four newcomers.
"Sort of." Spyro replied. "This is Jade Lemon, Mandy, Ducky, And Saife. They came from four different worlds, which Jade, Mandy and Ducky lost theirs, but Saife still has her world. She's from Mobius."
"Kinda guessed that from the way she looks." Rainbow Dash said.
"Oh, you poor things." Fluttershy said, walking over to them. "I'm so sorry you lost your homes."
"Aw, don't worry about it." Jade said. "It's not your guys fault we lost our homes."
"Yeah, it's not your fault." Ducky replied, patting her on the head. "It's Larxene's and Organization XIII that's to blame."
"Yeah, those jerks have gone too far this time!" Rainbow Dash said, ready for a fight. "Let me at them! I'll kick their flanks to next year!"
"Rainbow, calm down." Spyro said. "You're going to get us thrown out. Plus, Larxene has already been taken care of, but that won't stop the Organization from sending someone else to finish what Larxene started. We need to figure out what Larxene's final target is and what she's up to."
However, a moment later, a corridor opened up behind Spyro, everyone's eyes wide with terror while Spyro was oblivious to it as Demyx walked through, everyone relaxing a bit except for Jade and her group as he walked up next to him.
"Hey Spyro, we need to..." A moment later, Jade pulled out her revolvers and fired, attempting to hit him, but Spyro was much faster, grabbing the bullet before it could hit Demyx, who was looking at the bullet in horror as he had his hoof over his heart. "Whew, thanks man."
"No problem bud." Spyro replied.
"Spyro, what the heck are you doing!?" Jade exclaimed. "He's a Nobody!"
"He's also a friend." Spyro replied, surprising them. "This is Demyx, the Melodious Nocturne. He's a friend of ours. Saved my friends back on the Hawaiian Isles."
"Wait, a Nobody saved you?" Ducky asked, looking at him with suspicion.
"Ok look, I know he;s part of the Organization, but he's on our side." Spyro said. "I promise, he's on the level and he will help us when we need it."
"Well, ok then." Jade said, putting the revolver away. "But if he makes one wrong move, I will not hesitate to shoot him."
"Fair enough." Spyro said, turning to Demyx. "Now Demyx, what is it you want to talk to me about?"
"Well, we came to talk to you about working together." Demyx said, rubbing the back of his head.
"We?" Spyro asked.
Before he could ask further, someone else was coming through the corridor, everyone on high alert, ready to fight whoever it was that was coming out of the darkness and to their surprise, it wasa grayish blue earth pony with dirty blonde hair with an icy shield for a cutie mark and the roman numeral for four on the middle of it, walking in and seeing that everyone was starring at him, smiling as he approached.
"Well, what a pleasant surprise." Vexen said. "Demyx is still alive, so that must mean we're all on friendly terms, right?"
"So long as you keep your weapon holstered and don't do anything clever, we'll be just fine." Spyro replied. "So, what is it you want to talk about popscle boy?"
"Oh, going for the ice jokes now are we?" Vexen asked. "That's rather cold of you, don't you think?"
The world then paused around him, Spyro turning around to look at the readers with a surprised look.
"Wow, that was actually an ok come back." Spyro said. "He ended up freezing me out."
A moment later, the screen then came down to the referees again, blowing their whistles at him as they spat them out.
"Comedy violation!" The first ref said before the screen was pushed away for Spyro to say something.
"Oh come on, that was a good one!" Spyro said, returning his attention to Vexen as the world continued.
"We have a situation." Vexen said, walking past him to sit in the chair, everyone watching him with suspicion. "As you know, Larxene is severely injured and Xemnas brought her back to our stronghold."
"Yeah, so she can get herself fixed up thanks to that fancy shamncy healing chamber you probably have." Spyro said. "Seriously, you guys are like cockroaches, you never die."
"Yes, we do have a tendancy to come back, don't we?" Vexen asked. "However, instead of getting to the healing chamber, Larxene ended up stabbing both myself and Demyx here, stealing a very highly unstable source of power."
"Wait, what source of power?" Spyro asked. Vexen remained silent, not wanting to reveal the crystal's abilities and turned his head away, Demyx rolling his eyes in annoyance as he stepped forward.
"It's supposed to increase the overall power of whoever is using it." Demyx said, Vexen kicking him.
"Keep quiet you moron!" Vexen hissed.
"Look, we need his help and to get that help, we need to tell him what he'll be up against." Demyx said, looking to Spyro. "It was something that Vexen's been working on, something to give our powers a boost so we could fight you wihtout any danger to ourselves. But there's a problem with the crystal."
"What problem?" Spyro asked.
Vexen looked reluctant to tell him, not wanting to divulge any secrets about the Organization to him, but he knew he didn't have much of a choice as he looked at him.
"The crystal does as Demyx said." Vexen replied. "It's meant to provide a temporary boost to the users power to make them invincible for a short time, unlocking their full power. However, further tests revealed that the crystals were very unstable, for if someone uses them to boost their power, it will completely change them, providing great power, but at the price of loosing their minds."
"What do you mean by, 'loosing their minds'?" Twilight asked.
"There was another Nobody, Xion." Vexen replied. "She was a copy of Sora, granted an incomplete one, but a copy of him. She had his memories, but in order to give them back, she had to sacrifice herself, so she found a way to achieve her ultimate, by letting go of herself, she became something else. She became... a Titanic Giant."
"A T-Titanic Giant?" Fluttershy asked. "W-what's that?"
"It is her final form." Vexen replied. "After I saw her do this, I made it my life to try and replicate this power."
"This titan thing?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"Indeed." Vexen replied. "So we tried to replicate this power, trying to understand how it worked, but unfortunately, when we discovered that it was Xemnas who gave her that power, tampering with her original design, I knew that it would be challenging to try and replicate that power."
"And why's that bad for us exactly?" Spyro asked, clearly unconcerned.
"It's bad because if Larxene uses it, she'll be near unstoppable and uncontrolable." Vexen replied. "She will hunt you down, using this new found power and try to destroy you. You understand what power like that can do, don't you? Even for the noblest of goals, power can corrupt anybody."
"Well, there's nothing noble about Larxene, now is there?" Rarity asked.
"She took one of the crystals and rushed through one of the corridors, bent on vengeance." Vexen continued. "She may use the crystal, which I'm half excited to see her use, but also terrified of the results. It makes you wonder, doesn't it!"
"Yeah, it definitely does." Spyro said, getting up. "Look, this sounds like a you problem, not ours. So, thanks, but no thanks. Not interested."
Spyro got up, getting ready to go when Vexen pulled out of the crystals, everyone getting their blades and weapns out to fight as Spyro looked at it, seeing the pink glow coming off of it as Vexen held it.
"Beautiful, is it not?" Vexen asked. "In this form, it is harmless, but when one jabs this into their chests, it will unlock their full power."
"Look, as I said, I'm not interested in helping you to find Larxene, alright?" Spyro asked. "All I want is some sleep and the remainder of this week to unwind and relax. So, if you don't mind, please, leave."
Vexen looked annoyed, putting the crystal back in his jacket as he got up to leave, but Demyx looked at him, seeing how he turned his back, but knew that he needed his help and knew exactly what would trigger him.
"Spyro... Larxene..." Demyx began to say, Spyro ignoring him as he kept his back turned. "Larxene is in Mobius."
That single sentence made Spyro's heart stop, his eyes wide with shock as he looked at Demyx, a mixture of rage and fear in his eyes as he looked at Demyx.
"Where... did you say... Larxene was at?" Spyro asked.
Meanwhile in Mobius, Larxene was walking along the trail of the Green hill area, looking for a way to get Spyro's attention and to exact her revenge upon him, walking along the pathway until she felt her legs give out, feeling weak after the beat down she was given by Ducky, but she kept going, trying to remain upright, but a moment later, she collapsed on the ground, falling into unconciousness as she fought to remain awake. While she fought to remain awake, she noticed a shadowy figure running by, her vision getting dark for a moment before regaining it, seeing that whoever it was was much closer, but the figure was still dark, makign it impossible for her to make out who it was as she closed her eyes. When she woke up, she found herself in what appeared to be a bedroom with banana yellow walls, a couple of drawers and a single window, covering her eyes to try and keep the light out as she got up, hissing in pain as she got up, finding that her chest was bandaged as was her arm and her head, pushing the covers away as she got up, finding her jacket was nearby, so she took it and put his on, walking out of the room to see where she was at, opening the door to find herself on a walkway over what seemed like a living room.
Looking around to see it was the same colored walls as was in the room she woke up in, looking over and seeing that there were some pictures on the wall, seeing they had pictures of two rabbits, an adult rabbit, creamy white in color with brown tips at the end of her ears, wearing a pink and red dress while next to her was a smaller rabbit, same color as her and the same brown tips, except she had a brown spot on the top of her head and next to her was some kind of blue and yellow creature, wondering what it was. However, a moment later, she heard a door opening, looking down to see the adult rabbit woman coming out of another room, carrying a tray full of food as she looked up, seeing Larxene was standing there and smiled.
"Oh, you're awake." The rabbit said. "I'm glad to see you walking around."
"Who are you?" Larxene asked, trying to walk down the stairs, wincing as she went. "What is this place? Where am I?"
"Oh, where are my manners?" The rabbit asked. "I'm Vanilla the Rabbit. My daughter, Cream and her little friend Cheese found you badly injured, so we brought you here to egt you back on your feet."
"Heh, thanks, but I could have taken care of myself." Larxene said, reachign the bottom of the stairs as she held her side.
"Oh dear, you shouldn't be walking around right now." Vanilla said, putting the tray ont he table and walking to her. "Come on dear, you need to rest."
"I told you, I'm fine!" Larxene exclaimed, trying to free herself as Vanilla walked her over to the tray of food, sitting her down in front of it.
"There you go dear." Vanilla said. "You should at least eat something. I'll go and get some tea."
Vanilla then walked out of the room, returning to the kitchen to get Larxene some tea while the Nobody looked between the kitchen and then to the food, finding it was a regular grilled cheese with tomato soup, wondering about it as she reached down and picked it up, taking a bite out of it and finding it was pretty good, continuing to eat when she noticed someone was watching her, looking to her left and saw the little rabbit from the picture, watching her from behind a set of stares along with her little friend, annoyed they were watching her as she ate.
"You can come out you know." Larxene said, continuing to eat the sandwich as she walked over. "What were you doing hiding behind the stairs?"
"Well... I..." Cream started to say, being a bit shy around the Nobody, which made her roll her eyes.
"Forget it." Larxene said, continuing to eat. "I suppose I have yu to thank for finding me."
"Yeah, Cheese and I found you in the Green Hills." Cream replied, smiling. "You looked very, very hurt, so I knew you needed help."
"Heh, thanks, I guess." Larxene said, being indifferent about the rabbit having helped her.
"You're welcome." Cream said, smiling with herself as Cheese cheered excitedly. "So, who are you?"
"I'm Larxene." She replied.
"Nice to meet you Larxene!" Cream said. "I'm Cream! And this is Cheese! So happy to meet you!"
"This kid is pretty nice." Larxene thought to herself. "Not an ounce of darkness in her heart, whatsoever. Could it be that she's...?"
Larzene then smiled, believing she might have found something far more valuable than her need for revenge as she ate.
"Say Cream, could I ask you something?" Larxene asked, getting her attention. "When you found me, was I holding a pink crystal in my hand?"
"Oh yes, we did!" Cream replied. "Hold on, I'll go get it!" Cream then ran to her room to go and get the crystal that Larxene was talking about, the Nobody smiling as she left. A moment later, Cream came running back down with the crystal in her hand, which when she presented it to Larxenbe, it started to glow brightly, catching her attention as she looked at it. "Oh, so sparkly."
"It is beautiful, isn't it?" Larxene asked, looking at Cream again as she smiled. "Cream, I got one more question for you." Cream looked at Larxene, but when she did, she felt a chill run up her spine as Larxenes eye were no longer yellow but now they were pink, making the young rabbit back away as Larxene stood up. "Have you ever heard of a group called 'Organization XIII'? And about the Keyblade warriors?"
In the room next door, vanilla was just pouring the warm tea into a tea pot, putting the lid on while getting some sugar cubes and a cup of cream, but as she did that, she heard a scream and something crash, Vanilla dropping everything as she ran out of the kitchen to see what was going on, only to see a massive hole in the side of her house, horrified to see it when she saw Cheese on the ground, badly injured with scratches and some dirt on him.
"Cheese!" Vanilla exclaimed, running over and kneeling down to scoop him up. "What happened? Where's Cream?"
The little Chao lifted it's arm up, shaky after having been attacked as he pointed outside, revealing that Cream had just been kidnapped, Vanilla's heart dropping into her stomach as she looked to the couch, finding that the bandages used to help Larxene were ont he ground, realizing that it was Larxene who had kidnapped her daughter. Meanwhile in Equestria, everyone had just boarded the morning train back to Ponyville to get to Spyro's garage and get a ship to go to Mobius, despite Vexen and Demyx offering to open up corridors so they can get to Mobius faster, Spyro still did not trust Vexen and wanted to have his own mode of transportation incase he was betrayed and he was pretty sure the other fel the same way. After a while on the train, they had finally arrived back in Ponyville and everyone rushed off of the train and ran towards Sweet Apple Acres, running past a whole bunhc of confused ponies as they saw Spyrio's new friends, rushing as fast as they could to the garage where it was waiting for the, lockdown protocols disengaging as he approached.
"Spyro, ya'll are back early!" Apple Bloom shouted, she and Scootaloo running to them. "How was it!? Did Rarity win!?"
"She sure did AB." Spyro replied, ruffling her hair when she noticed their new friends and the two Nobodies, looking at them with a funny look. "Who the heck are they?"
"Some new friends." Spyro replied. "And an old headache."
"An old headache?" Scootaloo asked. "What do you mean?"
"It's a long story." Spryo said, looking to the garage. "Right now, I need to get to another world right now. It's in danger."
"You mean we." Twilight said, walking up.
"No Twilight, not this time." Spyro replied. "If Larxene has one of those crystals, then this has gotten a whole lot more dangerous than previous. Not to mention with Applejack being pregnant, I'm not taking any chances."
"No way you're leaving us out of this." Jade said, walking up. "She destroyed our homes and we are not going to let her do the same to Saife's world."
"Count me in." Mandy said, walking up.
"And me." Ducky replied, cracking her knuckles. "She's going to pay for what she has done to my home."
"Don't think you're leaving without me." Saife said, walking up. "There is no way that I'm going to let her destroy my home the same way she destroyed theirs."
Spyro looked at the four new friends they had just made, seeing how determined they were to help fight and to avenge their worlds and to protect Saife's world, smiling at them and at their determination.
"Alright, you four are coming along." Spyro said. "But you won't be able to do much damage against the Heartless or the Nobodies with what you have right now. Come on in, I'll upgrade your weapons for you."
They all walked into the garage where he took Jade's revolvers from her, taking them to the workbench where he got to work takig them apart, seeing how they worked and doing what he needed to do, doing a bit of cleaning on the weapons as he put them back together, wiping it clean as he spun them around, checking the sights on them to make sure it still worked, pulling the trigger a few times on some old junk he had, which destroyed it instantly as she smiled, walking back over to another bench, putting something together while the others watched, wondering what he was working on as he pulled out a set of silver chains and an Onyx gemstone, whipping something together with a smile as it started to glow for a moemnt before walking over to a weapons rack he had recently installed, looking through it until he pulled out an old Halberd, rummaging through some more old weapons he had as he pulled out an old battle axe, a pair of brass knuckles, and a couple other weapons as he took them to the forge.
He put everything on there, which he has scanned before getting to work on what he needed to make, holographic projections popping up as everyone looked, seeing some of the holograms float by, so Jade touched it and it came to life, amazing them with how everything looked as Spyro activated his forge. However, instead of either Vibranium or Beskar, he got out a few old sheets of Stainless steel metal and cleaned the rust off of it, conducting a spark test, which was to put the metal against a grinder to see if it will produce a lot of sparks, meaning that the more sparks it produced, the better the steel. After finding it was still good, he tossed it into his forge, letting the metal melt as he got to work on a design for the new weapon, slamming the hammer on it several times, shaping and forging it utnil he was satisfied, picking it up as hitting the bottom of it to the ground, watching as it lit up and smiled, grabbing everything else and walking over to his new friends.
"So, is this like a hobby or something?" Jade asked.
"Not exactly." Spyro replied, handing Jade back her revolvers. "Your revolvers are pretty good. Built for midranged combat while changing into short swords for close quarter combat with razor sharp edges that don't seem to wear out. Impressive, but against the heartless and Nobodies, they barely do any damage. So I added a few enchantments to make them capable of destroying a Heartless while also adding elemental munitions into the cartridges, which include incindiary rounds, shock ammo, and some frost rounds to freeze your opponents dead in their tracks."
"Sweet." Jade said, pointing them at an old piece of iron and firing, using one of the incindiary rounds and hitting it, leaving some fire that caused it to then explode as the garage activated it's fire suppression protocals. "Oh, I'm so coming to you for weapon upgrades from now on."
"I have a feeling you might." Spyro said. "But use those shots sparingly. Unlike your abilitiy to have limitless ammo, it will take some time for your other types of ammo to recharge once they're used up. Use them as you see fit." He then walked over to Mandy, who looked nervous as he gave her a small silver chain with what looked like an Onyx on it, looking at it in confusion. "I noticed that your ability allows you to take on a gelatinous form, allowing for invulnerability and for you to stretch your body to where you can hit your opponents from a distance, but it seems your powers have their limits and it looks like you haven't figured out how to change your bodies form to suit your needs." He then put it on her neck, making her nervous as she looked at it. "This chain has a special Pnyx gemstone in it that will help your powers and abilities to reach a whole new stage while making sure it doesn't put too much stress on your body while using your powers."
Mandy looked at him, walking forward a bit before using her quirk, surrounding herself in the pink slime as she sat up, looking at her hooves as they morphed into large balls with spikes on it, amazed by what she did before they morphed into swords and then to axes, smiling as she got up and leapt up, sticking to the surface of the building before leaping up, testing her limits as she fellt to the ground with a splat, horrifying everyone before she popped up, showing she wasn;t harmed as she turned bac to normal.
"Oh heck yeah!" Mandy shouted. "Now that's what I'm talking about!"
"Pfft, like a piece of jewelry is going to make you any better in a fight." Ducky said.
"Well it's a good thing I dodn't make you something like that then." Spyro said, showing her the Halberd.
"A Halberd?" Ducky asked. "Yeah, no thanks. I prefer to use my hands."
"You say that now, but just watch." Spyro said. He walked out and grabbed a few apples, tossing them into the air before shortening the weapon, flipping it around a few times before turning it into a shotgun, firing a few times and hitting the apples before turning to Ducky, everyone surprised at what he did. "The Halberd is to put distance between you and your opponent. With the proper handling, it can pierce through the armor of a thirteenth knight on horse back. I made this thing to where it's also a shotgun..." he then flipped it around a couple of times, turning it into a Battle axe. "A battle axe and..." He then flipped it and seperated the weapon, turning it into gauntlets with spiked knuckles. "Spiked Gauntlets, perfect for the average close quarter combatant."
He put his hands together and a moment later, it turned back into a Halberd, Ducky taking the weapon as she looked at it, smiling as she swung it around a few times before looking to Spyro.
"You know, I think I might give this thing a try." Ducky said.
"I also noticed your sudden spike in power." Spyro said, getting her attentiona. "I'm unfamiliar with what it is exactly, but what I do know is that it granted you increased strength and agility, hence why the Halberd will be a pefect weapon for you."
"And me?" Saife asked. "What do I get?"
"You don't need anything Saife." Spyro replied, confusing her. "You are already very powerful as you are. But you fear that power, believing you cannot control it, but you can, you just need to let go."
"Let go?" Saife asked.
"Fear is what holds people back." Spyro replied. "When one allows fear to enter their hearts, they begint o second guess themselves, allowing them to fall victim to despair and uncertainty, making it difficult to keep control and focus on what you're trying to do."
"And what does that have to do with my powers?" Saife asked.
"Out emotions are tied to our powers." Spyro replied. "Meaning whatever we feel, it will affect how we can handle our powers. I noticed that you limited yourself to a few basic spells and abilities when you have more power than you let on. You must let go of that fear and allow your power to flow. You have always isolated yourself from others out of fear that your power may hurt them, let go of that fear and let your friends help you and become your strength."
Saife was starring at Spryo, processing what he was saying before Vexen and Demyx walked in after everyone got geared up.
"All finished?" Vexen asked. "Good. Now we need to go to Mobius before Larxene uses that crystal."
"Well, unfortunately, the Dragon's crest is undergoing some maintenance after my last patrol." Spyro said. "Had to go through an Ion storm and it really did a number on the ship. Would have been alot worse if I hadn't upgraded the shield when I did."
"So which ship we taking them?" Demyx asked.
"Wait ship?" Jade asked.
"We're taking the Phoenix." Spyro replied. He then pressed a button and the work stations retracted, allowing the massive bird like ship to come up as everyone who haven't seen it before look on it in amazement. "I made a few modifications to it's design, allowing it to carry a few special missiles that can punch through stone. Comes in handy for those really big Heartless that have tough metal surfaces and stone shells."
"Alright, I can buy that." Vexen said. "Now, let's get going before I change my mind about this whole partnership."
The boarding ramp lowered down to allow for them to get onboard, Spyro keeping an eye on Vexen as Demyx approached, pulling him aside as the other four boarded.
"Demyx, you do realize that there is a chance we won't be able to save Larxene, right?" Spyro asked. "Even if we work together, there's a very slim possibility we can help her."
"We have to at least try." Demyx said. "I know you have your beef with Larxene, but I'm asking you, as a friend, please, help me to save Larxene."
Without waiting for a response, Demyx walked up the ramp and went straight into the ship, leaving Spyro alone with the Mane Six as he looked to them, seeing Applejack approach him as he stood there.
"I know Larxene is bad and all, but..." Spyro said, putting his hoof to her face. "But if this crystal is as dangerous as Vexen says it is, then we can't let Larxene remain in Mobius with it."
"Just be careful hun." Applejack said, hugging him. "Ah want ya to be there when the baby's born. Don't wanna end up raisin' a kid alone."
Spyro just chuckled, the two sharing a kiss before he walked onto the ship itself, walking to the ships boarding ramp and walking into the ship before it closed behind him, walking through the corridor all the way to the cockpit where everyone was waiting for him. He walked over to the pilots seat, sitting on it and took the controls. He flipped a few switches on the consol of the ship and the engines roared to life, the ship lifting off ever so slightly as it flew a few feet ahead before taking off, heading towards the sky and going above the atmosphere. Once the ship was above the worlds atmosphere, everyone in the cockpit except for Saife returned to their human forms, Jade and Mandy looking at themselves before looking to Spyro, who was now in his human form.
"Wow, we're... normal again?" Jade asked.
"It's the world itself." Spyro replied. "Some worlds will sometimes grant you a new form so you can blend in with the inhabitants of other worlds, keeping the world order in check."
"So, how many worlds have you visited?" Mandy asked.
"A lot." Spyro replied. "I have visited a lot of worlds. But this one is a world that my friend Sonic resides in."
"Whose Sonic?" Jade asked.
"He's a blue hedgehog that's really, really fast." Demyx replied. "Pretty chill, I have to say."
"We don't havce time to reminisce about our adventures right now." Vexen said. "We need to get going."
"Alright, alright, keep yer panties on bud." Spyro said, making the others chuckle.
He then put in a set of coordinates, which after he put them in, the engines reved up and they jumped into warp space, heading straight for Mobius to help their friends. Meanwhile in Mobius, Larxene was dragging Cream along, who was kicking and screaming, trying to get free while Larxene was focused on her goal, looking for the Keyhole in Mobius while keeping a strong grip on the little rabbit, grunting along the way as she was still in pain from her injuries.
"Let me go you big meanie!" Cream screamed. "When Mr. Sonic finds you, you're toast!"
"Keep quiet you little brat." Larxene said. "Once we're done here, I'll take you on a little trip, to a whole other world that is." Larxene continued to drag Cream along, who was trying to dig her fingers int the ground to slow her down, which Larxene was getting more and more annoyed with her, so she picked her up and was carrying her on her shoulder, Cream kicking and screaming at Larxene to let her go, but she didn't listen. Cream then looked down and kicked the side of her ribs, making Larxene gasp in pain as she dropped to the ground, dropping Cream as she ran away, Larxene glarring at the rabbit as she fled. "You snotty little brat!"
She then summoned her daggers and threw them towards Cream, who turned to see them coming and tripped, just narrowly avoiding them as they flew over, but Larxene just got more out, tossing them towards Cream, who braced herself for the hit, but then out of nowhere, a set of glowing arrows made of energy came out of nowhere, hitting the daggers and sending them to the ground. Larxene and Cream then looked up and saw, to their surprise, the black and red hedgehog, lookign down at the both from above the cliffs edge, glarring at the Nobody.
"Mr. Shadow!" Cream shouted.
"I don't know who you are, but this has nothing for you to be concerned about!" Larxene shouted.
"I may not knwo who you are, but you do not belong in this world." Shadow said, crossing his arms. "And whatever you have planned for that rabbit, I will not allow you to take her."
"You will not interfere with my plans!" Larxene shouted.
She then threw her daggers at him, but he suddenly disappeared, confusing her about where he went when he suddewnly reappeared, kicking her in the back and knocking her down before standing right in front of Cream, his arms still crossed as Larxene then activated her power, splitting into multiple copies of herself before all the copies charged straight for Shadow, which he just stood there as they swung, but as they did, Shadow dodged their attacks effortlessly, not breaking a sweat as he remained where he was, leaning from side to side to avoid the attacks before smacking the copies around like they were nothing. As he fought, Larxene was trying to reach for Cream while his back was turned, trying to be sneaky about it, but Shadow noticed her trying to get Cream and pulled out a green Chaos Emerald as it started to glow.
"Chaos Control!" Shadow shouted.
A moment later, it shined brightly as it teleported both him and Cream away, getting them to the other side of the cliff they were on, Shadow looking back and put himself between Cream and Larxene as she held her blades, looking more annoyed than ever.
"Clever trick." Larxene said, pointing the blades at him. "But you won't be able to save her. Why save a kid anyway? You don't strike me as the hero type."
"That's because I'm not." Shadow replied. "I don't care very much for the whole heroics. I leave that to the faker."
"Then why protect this kid anyway?" Larxene asked. "If you don't care to be a hero, then why protect her?"
Shadow didn't answer, looking to Cream, who was scared and was holding onto Shadow's hand, which he wanted to pull away, but as he looked down, Cream looked up to him, which when she did look up at him, he could see a human girl looking at him, blonde hair and blue eyes, looking just as scared as Cream did.
"Maria!" Shadow thought to himself.
He then looked back to Larxene, who was moving with lightning speed and swung to hit him, but Shadow just ducked, his jet boots igniting as he sucker punched Larxene in the gut, sending her flying into the air as he leapt up, holding up his hand as dozens of yellow energy orbs appeared above him.
"Chaos... Blast!" Shadow shouted.
He thrusted his hand towards Larxene and the orbs flew towards her, hititng her and causing a series of small explosions all across Larxene's body, sending her to the ground and at the edge of the cliff, severely injured and barely able to stand as Shadow landed. A moment later, Sonic arrived at the cliff that Shadow and Cream were on, seieng that the little rabbit was alright as he dashed to her.
"Cream!" Sonic shouted, stopping right in front of her. "Thank goodness you're alright. You mom came to me and told me what happened." He then looked to Shadow, who seemed to be keeping his eye on Larxene as she laid there on the ground. "Shadow? What are you doing here?"
"I was following this woman as soon as she arrived." Shadow replied. "I don't know what, but there was something telling me that something wasn't right about her."
Sonic then looked to the woman, seeing who it was and instantly recognized her.
"Wait, that's Larxene!" Sonic said.
"You know her?" Shadow asked.
"Oh, he knows me alright." Larxene said, getting up, shakily. "I was here once before, back on Angel island."
"Yeah, I remember you betrayed our friends to try and steal Spyro's Heart!" Sonic shouted. "You got a lot of nerve coming back here!"
"Oh, I got more than nerve." Larxene said, standing on the edge and pulled out the pink crystal. "Oh, I'm going to enjoy this."
She then lifted the crystal up and stabbed herself with the crystal, the gem sinking into her chest as she felt a sudden surge of power, feeling as if her body was being torn apart as veins of pink light spread across her body as the clouds above gathered, lightning shooting down from the sky as she fell backwards. Both Sonic and Shadow rushed to the edge and looked down to see what had happened only for their opponent to reappear, about the size and height of Big Ben, looking down at them wearing light blue and silver armor. On those arms were siver and gold gauntlets with the fingers having bladed edges on the top of them, eletricity coming off the hands and arcing across the arms all the way to her helmet, which had strands of what appeared to be hair poking out as four daggers floated above her shoulders, screeching in rage as Sonic and Shadow backed away, surprised at the sudden change that Larxene went through.
"Ok, this is definitely bad." Sonic said. Larxene then raised her hand and from above, lightning shot down and struck the area near Sonic and Shadow, the black and red Hedgehog grabbing Cream and leaping away before the lightning could hit them. "And that's even worse! How the heck are we supposed to beat that!?"
"You're asking me!?" Shadow asked, redirecting himself to avoid a bolt as they both landed. "You're the one who faced her before, you should know how to fight her!"
"Well, we didn't exactly battle, per say." Sonic said nervously.
"Ugh, why am I not surprised?" Shadow asked.
They both looked and saw that Larxene had sent another bolt towards them, forcing them both to dodge the attack and flee with Larxene following close behind, flying after them. With Spyro and his team, they had just gotten out of Warp Space and were approaching Mobius, seeing that there was a massive storm forming in the atmosphere above Mobius, looking like a hurricane as it was slowly moving.
"I don't think we need to look very far for Larxene." Spyro said.
"It appears she's used the crystal." Vexen said. "We are too late."
"Yeah, too late to stop her, but not too late for the fun." Spyro said, flying the ship into the storm. They passed through the storm clouds, lightning shooting across the ship trying to hit them, but Spyro's shield prevented them from being hit, taking the blunt of the hit as they got to where they could see Larxene in her giant form, chasing Sonic and Shadow as Larxene followed close behind. "Damn boy, she thick!"
"Oh my goodness." Vexen said. "It worked out better than I expected. So exhilarating! So stunning! Why... I could-!"
"Alright, calm yourself down Frankenstein." Spyro said, geting up. "We need to get down there and in this storm, I'm not landing this thing."
"Then how are we getting down there?" Jade asked as they all got up.
They followed Spyro all the way to the loading bay where Spyro hit a button, opening the ramp before grabbing some packs and passing them to Jade, Ducky, and Saife.
"Right, use these to get down there." Spyro said as they put them on.
"Well, at least you have parachutes." Jade said.
"I don't use parachutes." Spyro replied, shocking them. "They only break your fall."
"Wait, then what are these things!?" Ducky asked.
"Just press the red button and you'll find out!" Spyro replied, walking forward.
"But wait, how are you getting down!?" Mandy asked as Spyro turned to them.
"Simple." Spyro replied with a smile. "I'm going to Jinx it up."
He spread his arms out and fell backwards, everyone running tot he ledge of the ramp to see him fall, all watching in shock as he fell.
"He's completely lost his mind!" Vexen shouted.
However, a moment later, an alarm went off and they looked back, watching as one of the missiles that Spyro brought with them lowered down and fired, flying straight for Spyro as he flipped over and planted his feet on the thing, flying towards Larxene while the others watched.
"Gotta admit, dude knows how to have fun." Demyx said.
On the ground, Sonic and Shadow had run out of places to run, being backed towards the edge of the cliff where the ocean was at, Shadow using Chaos Spear and any other chaos power he had, the the more he hit her, the more aggravated she got, yelling in rage as she released a barrage of lightning towards them, hitting Shadow and sending him back to Sonic and Cream, Sonic spin dashing towards Larxene, but she just back handed Sonic back to Cream, who was horrified at what she was seeing. Larxene then started to approach them, reaching down to grab her as Cream knelt down to try and wake Sonic and Shadow up, praying that they were ok.
"Sonic, Shadow, wake up!" Cream exclaimed. "Please, you need to get up!"
"It's hopeless kid." Larxene said as she reached down. "You're all alone now. No one's going to save you know."
[Get Jinxed: By Djev, League of Legends album 1. Youtube, iTunes]
As she reached down, she heard what sounded like music playing, looking up to see who it was that was playing the music before she spotted something in the sky, looking closely as she saw it was Spyro, riding on a missile like it was a surfboard. She then redirected her focus onto Spyro, unleashing a wave of eletricity towards him, but he got his Keyblade out and spun it around, deflecting the surge of lightning from himself as he fast approached, Larxene grabbing the daggers on her shoulders and tossing them to try and hit him, but Spyro threw his blade, hitting each of the daggers and deflecting them before the missile reached Larxene. Spyro leapt off, the massive projectile hitting Larxene and causing her to stagger backwards while Spyro landed on his feet, looking up at Larxene as he ran towards her, but the massive Nobody lifted her hands and unleashed a storm of lightning, which Spyro called his balde again and delfected the eletricity, leaping up and sliding under the bolts before throwing the blade at Larxene, slamming ehr in the head before leaping up and grabbing her helmet and slamming her into the ground, laughing as he did it.
But Larxene proved to be tougher, getting back up and glarring at Spyro as she stood there and a moment later, several copies of her appeared, making Spyro look between them to see which would attack first, but one of them ended up getting hit in the head as Jade flew by on a winged jetpack, firing her revolvers while drinking her very sour lemonade, adding some extra punch into her shots and doing real damage to the armor on the giant before it collapsed and turned to smoke. The second one was tage teamed by Mandy and Ducky, which Mandy landed straight onto the copies face, spreading out and making the copy stagger as it tried to get her off of it's face, but Ducky flew by and with her Halberd, sliced clean through the leg and made the Nobody giant hope on a single leg, finally getting Mandy off itself, but the girl just smiled, producing dozens of arms with spiked balls for hands, pelting it in the face as it caused serious indents in the helmet itself and delivered a fatal blow, causing the Nobody to fall to the ground and turn to dust.
The third one however was fighting Saife, the Tenrec having surrounded her legs in a firy tornado as she pelted the third with fireballs, trying to do some damage, but it did little to nothing, so it back handed the Tenrec, causing her to fall and hit the ground as the copy approached, ready to finish the job, but Saife had enough, her eyes glowing red as she got up and a blood red aura surrounded her hands, the ground shaking as tendrils of red magic shot up and grabbed the copy, pinning it to the ground as she broke off a massive chunk of the ground, lifting it up into the air as her powers held the copy in place, which it looked up to see the floating chunk of rock before it smashed down ontop of the copy, taking it out in an instant. They all then put their full focus on the final giant, which was the original as she raised one of her hands up and conjured a powerful force of magic, sending down a full on twister to try and stop them, but Spyro just slammed his foot into the ground and canceled out the tornado, everyone running to the giant.
Jade pointed her revolvers at the giant and fired, hitting the knee and making the giant kneel down from the hit while Mandy morphed her hands into spiked balls again and flung them to Larxene' smashing her in the face while Ducky ran up and turned her Halberd into a Battle Ax, striking at the other knee before Saife conjured a massive ball of energy, which exploded and created dowzens of red tendrils that all hit Larxene, doing some severe damage to the armor before Spyro leapt up, his own magic surrounding him as he was encased in Aether power as an outline of a dragon appeared, roaring out before releasing a massive beam of pure aether power towards her, which Larxene tried to block by creating a vortex to try and block and disperse the magic, but it proved to be futile as the Aether was breakign through the vortex, shocking her as it bust through the shield, hitting the Nobody and causing a massive explsion, taking the giant with it as Spyro landed on the ground, watching the smoke as it faded, revealing Larxene still in her giant form, unconcious after being struck that hard.
[End of Get Jinxed]
"Saife?" Cream asked, which the Tenrec turned and saw the rabbit, her eyes widening with shock.
"Cream!?" Saife asked, running to her. "Cream, what are you doing out here? It's dangerous."
"I was taken from my home by that person, Larxene." Cream replied, looking to Spyro and the other humans as she hid behind Saife. "Who are they?"
"It's alright Cream, they're friends." Saife replied as they approached. "This is Spyro, Mandy, Jade, and Ducky. They helped me to get back here."
"Ugh, my head." Sonic said, getting up. Both he and Shadow had regained consciousness, looking up and seeing Spyro standing there. "Spyro!"
"Sonic!" Spyro exclaimed, walking over and helping him up. "Glad to see you're alright bud." He then looked over to Shadow, who was just as grody as he got up. "Whose this guy?"
"That's Shadow." Sonic replied. "He's kinda like me, except he doesn't know how to unwind and have fun."
A moment later, Vexen and Demyx walked over, which Sonic saw them coming and got ready to fight when Spyro stopped him.
"Sonic, it's alright." Spyro said. "They're on the level. Well, at least Demyx is."
"Look at her." Vexen said, walking to Larxene. "Absolutely amazing. She actually succeeded."
"Vexen, what arer you doing?" Spyro asked.
"Marveling at my work." Vexen replied, pulling out the crystal. "And finishing it!"
He then threw the crystal and it landed in Larxene's chest again, which brought her back to life as she stood up, growling in rage as she stood up.
"VEXEN!" Spyro shouted, throwing his blade.
However, Vexen smiled as he disappeared in a cloud of darkness, the blade being smacked away by Larxene as she lunged for everyone. Spyro looked to Saife and Cream, who was hugging the child, so without a second thought, Spyro used the Force and pushed them out of the way, saving them from thre Nobody while Larxene grabbed Spyro and the hedgehogs, holding them up as she glared at them.
"You will pay for what you have done little prince!" Larxene shouted. "You and your friends!"
She then conjured a storm above them and from above, the eletricity in the clouds shot down, hitting the three fo them and making them yell in pain while the others watched.
"We have to help them!" Jade shouted.
They rushed to help their friends, but a moment later, several Dusks and Snipers appeared, stopping them from approaching as Vexen walked forward, holding his shield in his arm as he approached.
"Ah, ah, ah, not so fast." Vexen replied.
"Vexen, what are you doing!?" Demyx shouted. "I thought you wanted to stop her!?"
"I did, until I saw what she was now." Vexen replied, motioning to her. "Just look at her. Look at how majestic she is now. The ultimate power of the heart. I have created the perfect power! Not even the prince and his friends can beat her now!"
"We'll see about that!" Jade shotued.
Ducky and Mandy charged forward and engaged the Nobodies all at once while Jade started to fire her revolvers at the Nobodies, which they charged forward and started to fight as well. However, Saife remained close to Cream, using her own powers to keep her safe while using random spells to keep the Nobodies at bay, Cream watching as the fight continued, looking up to Larxene ans seeing her friends getting hurt, staying close to Saife as she fought. With Spyro, he was loosing his strength, Larxene's powers doing more damage than he had once thought, yelling in pain as he suddenly felt as if he was loosing himself, darkness surrounding his vision as he started to feel like he was loosing himself as his eyes closed.
"Don't give up!" Cream shouted. Spyro's eyes opened as he looked down to the rabbit, seeing how determined she looked as she shouted to him. "You and Mr. Sonic know each other, meaning you must be good friends! If you are a good guy who fight's these things, then please, don't give up!"
Spyro looked down at her, feeling something deep inside spark inside his heart as if it was sleeping inside of him this whole time. In Equestria, the royal sisters were raising the sun and lowering the moon, watching the sky as they waited for Spyro to return, but while they were watching, in the throne room, a painting of a white alicorn with a red mane and her cutie mark being a feather quill with an ink bottle, which around her were the six Elements of Harmony, but behind her were more crystals, one of which was starting to glow purple as if reacting to something.
"Sister, I pray that Spyro succeeds in stopping whatever it is that's destroying the worlds." Luna said. "It is disturbing knowing that the Organization can do such at any time."
"I know sister, but I have faith he will succeed." Celestia replied.
"But how?" Luna asked. "How can you be certain?"
Before Celestia could say anything, she looke dover to the painting, seeing one of the gems glowing in the background with a smile.
"I have my ways sister." Celestia replied. "I have my ways."
On Mobius, Larxene was doing her best to try and finish her three captives off, continuing to bombard them with eletricity, but Spyro remained strong, fighting through the pain as he looked at Cream, finding renewed strength from her words.
"She's right." Spyro said, surprising Larxene as he pulled his arm free. "I can't give up, won't give up!" He then pulled his other arm free as the crystal on the painting in Equestria was glowing brighter. "So long as there is breath in my body and a smile on my face, I will never give up! Not on my friends, my family, or on my girls! YOU HEAR ME LARXENE, NEVER!"
He then lifted his arms and tried to block the lightning, putting his full strength into it as the light in the painting shined brightly, dissapearing all of a sudden as the lightning that was striking them suddenly changed color, turning from white to blue and then to purple as if reacting to his words, causing her hand to explode and send her flying backwards while everyone looked up, seeing that where Spyro one was, there was a purple orb in the air, floating while many rings spun around the orb, confusing them.
"What the...?" Vexen asked, watching the orb.
"What is that?" Jade asked.
"It's... almost similar to when Spyro and Rarity were in that golden dome together." Mandy said. "But... it's... purple."
"What does it mean?" Ducky asked.
Elsewhere in a vast void, Spyro was floating in the middle of the darkness, feeling weak after being eletroctued for so long, but somehow reivigorated by something, finding the strength to at least lift his head to try and look around when he spotred a light within the darkness, someone walking towards him and when they got closer, it was revealed to be the Alicorn fromthe painting, smiling at him as he looked at her.
"Who... are you?" Spyro asked.
The Alicorn didn't answer, but instead used her magic to summon something, which appeared in tendrils of purple light, revealing an oval shaped gemstone, levitating it over to him as he took it in his hand.
"Hope." The alicorn said, making him look to her. "Never loose Hope."
"Hope?" Spyro asked.
Before he could ask any questions, she disappeared, leaving him alone as the gem suddenly started to glow, floating up as it levitated to his neck, turning into a necklace as it shined brihgter and brighter, enveloping him in the light. In the real world, everyone was watching the orbs rings continue to spin, spinning faster and faster as if something was happening until they stopped, a set of rings stopping over a symbol that looked like a dove, everyone wondering what it mean whent he orb turned from purple to gold, shattering as the purple dragon roared out, rising into the sky before it suddenly turned gold itself, followed closely by a streak of blue and black, following the dragon up as both streaks turned gold as well and collided together, creating a blinding light that blinded everyone as a golden twister shot down from the sky and hit the ground.
[Unknown voices]
Bringer of Ho~~pe! (Of hope!)
Unleashed from the Heart of light!
Expanding upon the light,
Revive the worlds once more,
Light, truth, love, hope,
The power to restore what's lost!
The twister then disbursed, revealing Spyro was now wearing a golden long jacket with black and blue patterns going across the entire jacket while on his neck was he gem on the necklace. Spyro's hair was also gold with a single streak of red in the center of the hair which a set of Keyblades appeared, one was a single long blue rod with Sonic's spines for the teeth and a gold ring for the guard with a chaos emerald as the keychain while the second one was black but looked more like a saber that curved a bit inward with the teeth looking like spines, the guard was also a ring, but with six red gemstones around it, Spyro grabbing both blades as he opened his eyes, revealing they were only red.
Hope and Chaos uni~~~te!
It's never over!
Spyro was floating in the air, glarring at Larxene as a golden aura surrounded him, glarring at Larxene as he levitated in the air while everyone was looking at him in shock and awe at his new form.
"Wow." Jade said.
"That's... amazing." Ducky said.
"Looks pretty strong." Mandy said. "But is it strong enough against that thing?"
[Live and Learn, Crush 40, iTunes and Youtube]
As Spyro starred at Larxene, he unleashed his full power, the gold aura growing larger and causing the ground of the world beneath them to shake, making everyone fall down as Spyro suddenly dashed towards Larxene, slamming straight into her stomach as she gasped in pain and surprise, being shot into the air before Spyro waved his hand as dozens of spears made out of chaos energy appeared, shooting towards Larxene as she tried to dodge, but as she did, more and more spears appeared around her, forcing the Nobody to use her speed to get out of the orb, but Spyro just teleproted to her and struck again, this time using his Keyblades to slash through her armor, causing some pain for her. She lept backwards and trheww her daggers to hit him, but he disappeared, making her look around as a streak of golden light shot by, striking the Nobody in the bacjk, making ehr fall to the ground as he skidded to a halt, turning back to her as she got up.
She looked at the Keyblade warrior, feelign ehr rage boil deep inside of her as she summoned another storm, unleashing it's full fury towards him, but he leapt backwards into the sea, but instead of sinking, he flew over the surface of the water with the bolts of lightnign following after him, Larxene going afrer him as well while the others watched, seeing him stop and shoot into the air, spinning around as the lightning tried to get him, but he used his blue keyblade to absorb the lightning and spin it around, unleashign it's full fury towards Larxene, who fell into the water as the eletricity arched across her body, doing major damage to her. Spyro then flew into the sky, everyone watching him as he levitated in the air as he took the second blade and the gems on the blade glowed the same colors of six of the seven eneralds except for the green one, which was flying to him, lifting the blade as it attached itself to the section where the blade and the handle connect, allowing the blade to glow as he lifted it up, slicing the air as it unleashed an arc of golden light towards Larxene, who was getting up. She saw the light and held up her arms to block the attack, but it then unleashed hundred of tendrils towards her, hitting her all over her body as it caused a mini-explosion, causing sections of the armor to break off and force her into the cliff, loosing strength as Spyro levitated in the air.
It was then that the gem on the necklace started to glow as he lifted his arms and above him, three golden circles of magic appeared, everyone looking to them and from them, three different worlds, which were the ones that Larxene had destroyed appeared, though miniature versions of the originals, they started to glow as behind him, victims of the attacks caused by Larxene appeared, all glarring at her as the Nobody looked, seeing them all glar at her before turning into seperate lights, flying into the gem as it glowed, making Spyro feel stronger until a set of rainbow colored Pegasi wings appeared, the light from the wings drapped the area, captivating everyone there while across the world, everyone looked to the sky, seeing the light and an Aurora borealis going on, feeling like something was happening and all of a sudden, everyone there grabbed a gold ring and raised it to the air as if waiting for someone someone to take the rings, which they started to glow, releasing the energy inside each of them and flying to the center of the light as the energy aentered the gem, turning the wings completely white, Spyro glarring down at Larxene as she tried to get up, her legs giving out as she tried.
A moment later, he then dove towards her, flipping around and spin dashing towards her as seven rings appeared in frotn fo him, passing through each of them as it caused his aura to changed to different colors of the rainbow, spinning faster and faster until he it Larxene's chest, making her yell in pain as he passed completely through her and skidded to a halt, the Titanic ginat exploding from the sheer force of the attack, standing up straight as he looked to Vexen, who fell onto his rear as he starred at him in horror, as he stood there.
[End of Live and Learn]
Spyro turned and walked towards him, blades in hand as Vexen was backing away, wanting to put distance between him and the Keyblade warrior as he felt his own stomach turn, looking at the powered up warrior in pure terror.
"W-what are you?" Vexen asked, his voice breakign out of fear as he continued to move back. "It's not possible. Such a feat is impossible! I gave her a second crystal, SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE UNSTOPPABLE!"
"Nothing is ever unstoppable." Spyro replied, his voice mixed with Sonic's and Shadows. "Everyone and everything have a weak spot or a weak point. You just need to know where to look."
He then raised his blade to attack, but Vexen got up and ran for it, leaving the Nobodies he brought with him to fight, only for Spyro to spin around as the energy from his blade caused a wave of colors to wash over them, destroying them in an instant while Vexen ran through the corridor, narrowly escaping the attack as it closed.
"Yeah, you better run!" Ducky shouted, sitting down from exhaustion. "Not gonna lie, that was more of a workout than I thought it would be. Is it like this all the time?"
"Sometimes." Spyro replied, this time it was his voice. "Othertimes it's as easy as falling off a bike."
"Wow, this it... weird!" Sonic said, taking control of Spyro's body and looking it over. "Dude, i feel exposed without my fur."
"This body..." Shadow said, looking at it. "So much power."
"Dude, with that power... could you restore our worlds!?" Jade asked happily.
"Unfortunately no." Spyro replied, breakign their spirits. "I have restored eleven worlds while repairing this one, but it was because I had the combined energies of twelve worlds to do the trick, but after that battle, I barely have enough power to restore one. I'm sorry."
"But... with more power, you could restore our homes... right?" Mandy asked.
"Certainly." Spyro replied. "But for that, it's going to take time and a whole lot of mana."
"Well, how can we help you to do that!?" Ducky asked.
"For now, nothing." Spyro replied. "You're more than welcome to remain in Equestria for as long as it takes."
They all looked at him, knowing that they maybe stuck in Equestria for a while, but decided to take him up on his offer, nodding their heads at him to accept the offer.
"Mind if I tag along as well?" Saife asked, walking up.
"Why?" Spyro asked. "You still have your home."
"Yeah, well, if this Organizations going to continue to cause trouble, I might as well help out however I can." Saife replied.
"Hey, the more the merrier." Spyro replied. "Besides, I have a feeling we'll be seeing more of the Organization very soon."
"Sooner than you believe." Demyx replied. "They sent Xigbar to destroy Larxene's final target."
"Wait, Mobius wasn't Larxene's final target?" Spyro asked. "Then what is?"
In the Nobody stronghold, Vexen had just returned, having had a very close encounter when he spotted something that left him completely shocked, Larxene in the middle of his lab, looking bad as she had burns on her, cuts, scrapes and definate bruising, barely able to stand.
"Larxene!?" Vexen asked, shokced to see her. "But how?"
"Vexen..." Larxene said.
She then collapsed to the ground, the scientist rushing over to check on her and turned her over, sfinding that her trenchcoat was completely shredded, barely covering her up when he noticed the pink crystal in her chest, still having some power in it before it turned to dust, Vexne looking at Larxene in amazement as he smiled.
"Don't worry my friend." Vexen said, picking her up. "I'll get you to the healing chamber. After running some tests."
Meanwhile in Malefors stronghold, his statue roared to life as Aphara approached, Orion appearing as she approached.
"Aphara, the prince is growing stronger." Malefor said. "And now he has a new Element of Harmony."
"Wait what?" Aphara asked. "I thought there were onlt six?"
"There are more than six little dragon." Orion replied. "The six that you know of are well known, but these other elements are a mystery. They only appeared once, but never again, until now."
"It's imperative we free Orion at this point." Malefor replied. "I am sending you to the next world to collect ther fourth key. Do not fail, or else it'll be your head."
"Have I ever failed to egt the keys yet?" Aphara asked snidely.
A moment later, a gateway opened up behind her, which she walked through without any problems and it then closed behind her, sending her to the next world to collect the fourth key. At the same time, Yang, who had survived the destruction of her world, was waking up, feeling groggy as she tried to get up, only to feel a shocking pain in her arm, hissing as she grabbed it and saw the damage done to the mechanical arm, so she decided to take it easy and push herself up, finding she was on a rooftop as she chuckled.
"Heh, those things werent so tough, now were they ladies?" Yang asked. However, she didn;t hear a response and turned around, finding she was on the roof of a residential complex in the middle of what appeared to be a version of New York city, looking around in a panic as she looked for her team and her sister. "Blake? Weiss? Jade!? Ruby!?" She then got up, only to be shocked again gy her arm and fall to her knees, looking over the edge and seeing a lot of people below her, except they weren't wearing any clothing that came from Remnant and there didn't appear to be any Grimm around, confusing her as she sat up and looked around. "Where on Remnant and I!?"
