About a week had passed since the incident involving the Memory Stone and everyone forgetting about all the good deeds you've done for them. In between that time, you were patiently waiting for Shadowlight to come back from Equestria in order to train you and your girls for the upcoming battle with V/N. Right now, you were in your room while sitting at your desk. You were currently gazing at a small black box that looked like it could contain jewelry as it was sitting in the middle of the desk.

(Y/N): *thinking* *sigh* I sure hope I'm able to give this to my girls someday. Maybe not any time soon, but hopefully, sometime in the future.

You picked it up and held the small box in your hand while gazing at it.

(Y/N): *thinking* Oh well. In the meantime, I'll just enjoy their company while I can.

???: Hey, what's that, dude?

You let out a high pitched scream after hearing that voice as you turned and saw Shadow standing in your doorway.

(Y/N): Oh, Shadow. *sigh* Thank god, it's you.

Shadow Moonlight: Why me? Isn't Flash your friend too?

(Y/N): W-Well, yes, but... but... *sigh* oh, what's the point? I may as well tell you. BUT, you had better swear that you will not tell another living soul about this, especially my girls. You got me, bud?

Shadow Moonlight: Y/N, we're brothers in arms. You know I keep my word.

(Y/N): Okay. Here.

You held out the box to him as he took it from you slowly while looking at it.

Shadow Moonlight: What's this?

(Y/N): Just open it.

He did as he was told and opened the small black box. He gasped in alarm. There, sitting comfortably on a cushion, was a set of nine diamond rings each colored differently from each other for each specific girl in your harem. He stared with widened eyes before slowly looking back up at you.

Shadow Moonlight: Y-You... you're gonna...

(Y/N): Well, not any time soon, but hopefully when we all graduate. It's actually kind of a plan that I have in mind.

Shadow Moonlight: Well, I guess this proves just how much they're worth to you, huh?

(Y/N): Heh, believe me, I had to go through a lot of overtime at my job just to scrape together enough money for those. It wasn't easy.

Shadow Moonlight: But, it was worth it. Or at least, it will be.

You sighed before sitting on your bed as Shadow looked at you curiously.

Shadow Moonlight: Hey, what's wrong, dude?

(Y/N): Shadow... what if they say no? Then that would mean that I did all that for nothing.

Shadow Moonlight: Y/N, that would be my problem, not yours. Have you forgotten that you're a ladies' man? They'd love to marry you and I think after everything you've all been through, they'll be even more than happy to accept it. You've got nothing to worry about, Plus, I bet your parents would be thrilled to hear that you're getting married.

You looked back up at him with a bit of an unsure expression before your lips curled up into a smile.

(Y/N): Heh, thanks, Shad. And hey, if it all goes to plan, would you mind... being my best man?

Shadow Moonlight: You know I will. Me, Flash, and Edge might even throw you a bachelor party. The best one you've ever had.

(Y/N): Heh, it'd be the only one I've had.

Shadow Moonlight: Exactly why it'll be the best.

(Y/N): *chuckles* Thanks, bud. I'm glad we reunited, you know that?

Shadow Moonlight: Me too, N/N. Me too.

He walked over and pulled you into a hug as you happily returned it. However, the moment was short lived as you noticed that your journal was starting to glow signifying that Twilight was writing to you.

(Y/N): Sorry, Shad. I've gotta take this.

Shadow Moonlight: No worries, man.

You picked up your journal and read the message.

Twilight Sparkle (writing): Dear Y/N, Shadowlight requested me to inform you that he'll be returning in three days and that he wanted you and the others prepared by the time he gets back. He also mentioned that if you manage to best him, he'll teach you how to summon armies at will. Personally, between you and me, I hope you succeed. Give my regards to the others and hopefully I'll get to hear from you again soon. Your "cousin", Twilight Sparkle. P.S. Try not to get too hurt, okay?

You smiled a little as you closed your journal and set it back on the nightstand as you turned back to Shadow.

Shadow Moonlight: So, what'd she say?

(Y/N): Apparently, Edge is coming back within three days in order to train me and the girls.

Shadow Moonlight: Wait...Edge is going to train you? Uhh, I don't think that's a good idea. 

(Y/N): Why not? This is the perfect opportunity to train myself for when V/N decides to attack.

Shadow Moonlight: I don't think you understand, Y/N. Edge is extremely powerful, I'm not sure if he's more powerful than you are but if he is, I'm worried for you. Edge won't go easy on you, he'll go all out.

(Y/N): I'm sure it'll be fine, Shadow. Edge and I are friends so he's bound to show some form of restraint, right?

Shadow Moonlight: I hope so.

(Y/N): Okay, how about this? If it turns out that you're right and that he's not gonna go easy, then I'll do something for you. However, if he does end up going easy, then you've gotta do something for me. And don't worry, it's nothing embarrassing.

Shadow Moonlight: It wouldn't matter if it was, Y/N. Like I said before, I wouldn't back out on my word.

(Y/N): Well, alright then. It's a deal?

Shadow Moonlight: Yes. It's a deal.

You both shook each other's hands.

(Y/N): Still though, you really need to have more faith in me, Shadow. I've survived being pounded into the ground twice, had my mind controlled by three evil sirens, went toe to toe with a berserk dark angel, wrestled with giant thorny vines, and dealt with a drama queen so strong that she nearly leveled the mall. I think a little training with Edge isn't gonna kill me.

Shadow Moonlight: I do believe in you, Y/N. I just don't want you to get hurt.

(Y/N): Well, if I do get hurt, then it'll be on me. Plus, I can always heal myself afterwards.

Shadow Moonlight: Still, be careful. If Edge lands a critical hit, I'm not sure if your magic can heal it.

(Y/N): *sigh* Okay, if it'll ease your conscience, then I'll be careful.

Shadow Moonlight: Thank you. So, three days, huh? What are we gonna do to kill time?

(Y/N): I don't know. Movie marathons with our girls?

Shadow Moonlight: Separately or together?

(Y/N): Why not together? We invite not only my girls, but also the Shadowbolts over to my place. How's that?

Shadow Moonlight: Hmm, that sounds like fun. Although, I'd have to see if they are willing to do so for three days straight.

(Y/N): We'll deal with that when the time comes. For now though, wanna finish the final section on Luigi's Mansion 3?

Shadow Moonlight: I thought you'd never ask. Let's kick some ghostly butt.

You nodded in agreement before starting up the game and you both started busting ghosts.

(Three Days Later)

We see you and Shadow with both your harems taking a stroll through the city while conversing with each other.

Shadow Moonlight: So, today's the day Edge comes back. Are you ready for it?

(Y/N): Just about. I wonder what he's got in mind, though.

Rainbow Dash: I'm sure whatever it is, you'll be able to handle it, babe.

Sunset Shimmer: I agree.

Sunlight Shimmer: Aren't all of you going to be training with him?

Sugarcoat I'm pretty sure he requested all of you to train. V/N's power is near to no limits with that amulet and could plan an attack at any moment. Since all of you have magic and fight as a group, it'd be better to train you the same way rather than individually.

Rarity: Well, we will be receiving some training, but mostly, Y/N will be the one who'll train the most since he has more magical power than the rest of us.

Shadow Moonlight: Regardless, I hope you all come back in one piece.

Applejack: No worries, Shadow. This'll be done quicker than an apple fallin' from a tree.

???: I'll be the judge of that.

You all heard a voice as you turned to see Shadowlight who had a raised eyebrow and a smirk.

(Y/N): *sigh* Shadow's right. You really need to stop with the sudden appearances.

Shadowlight: Would you prefer I make a dramatic entrance?

Indigo Zap: That would be more interesting.

Shadowlight: Though it would give it away but beggars can't be choosers. Anyway, are you prepared to train or should I give you more time?

(Y/N): I think we're about ready, right girls?

You asked the Rainbooms who nodded enthusiastically.

The Rainbooms: Yeah!

Shadowlight: Alrighty, prepare yourselves. V/N won't be pulling any punches which means I can't either.

He cracks his knuckles with his smirk growing a little.

Shadowlight: So, where do you want to do this?

You leaned over to Shadow and whispered to him.

(Y/N): *whisper* Whelp, guess I lost that bet.

He chuckled before you turned back to Shadowlight.

(Y/N): Don't you have a void realm of your own we could go to?

Shadowlight: That I do though I figured since he could strike at any moment that we should be in the proper environment. But, I'll leave it up to you.

(Y/N): Hmm, what about the forest? It's away from the city and it should be secluded enough.

Fluttershy: U-Um... I don't think that's such a good idea.

(Y/N): Why's tha- ...oh.

Shadowlight: What's the problem?

(Y/N): Well, the forest is where she met some of her new animal friends, so she'd prefer to not disturb them with our training.

Shadowlight: *sigh* Well, we can scratch that idea. Anywhere else? If not, we'll just go with the void.

(Y/N): Hmm, I can't really think of anywhere else that would be exclusive enough. What about you, girls?

They thought about that for a moment.

Sci-Twi: I'm drawing a blank here... which is a first for me.

Rainbow Dash: *groan* Come on, guys. There's gotta be a place we can go to that's isolated enough so that we won't draw too much attention.

Shadowlight: Well, if V/N can customize a void full of volcanoes, I'm sure I could do the same with my void to copy the look of the city.

He slashed the space in front of him, creating a rift in front of him. He turns back to the rest of you.

Shadowlight: Let's go.

He said as he walked through the rift. You turned back to Shadow and his girlfriends.

(Y/N): I guess we'll be seeing you guys later.

Shadow Moonlight: I guess so. See you guys when you get back.

(Y/N): You too, Shad.

You fist bumped each other before you stepped through the rift followed by the Rainbooms. You soon found yourselves in the pure black void where Shadowlight stood by himself.

(Y/N): Seems kinda... empty, Edge.

Shadowlight: Heh...

He closed his eyes and focused his magic. Soon, the once black void, was now a perfect replica of the city of Canterlot.

Shadowlight: Is that better, Y/N?

(Y/N): *sigh* I really need to stop opening my big fat mouth sometimes.

Shadowlight: That makes two of us. So, shall we get started?

(Y/N): That's what we came here for, didn't we? The only thing that's missing is to play fitting music over it.

Shadowlight: *sigh* Yep, you're right. I know I said we both should but you REALLY need to shut that mouth of yours because I have the perfect song to play.

He snapped his fingers as a tune began to play from no tangible source.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Shadowlight: We've got a long way to go people, so let's make it count.

Y/N & Rainbooms: Yeah!

Shadowlight (singing):

Let's get down to business

To defeat our foes!

Sunset Shimmer (singing):

How long will this take, Edge?

Shadowlight (singing):

Just shut up, you'll know!

V/N's got a lot of allies

While we have, nothing to hide

So trust me, you'll soon be

Re-a-dy

Shadowlight (singing):

Train your minds and bodies

Let's not be, floppy

Fluttershy get up now

Please don't be, sloppy

You're a spineless, pale, pathetic lot

And you haven't got a clue

Somehow I'll, make heroes

out of you!

Sunset Shimmer (singing):

I'm never gonna catch my breath

(Jordanwolfboy9743: Hope that Disney doesn't sue me.)

Pinkie Pie (singing):

Boy, was I a fool in school for cutting gym

(Shadowlight2784: *sigh* They're not gonna make it through.)

Shadowlight (singing):

We don't wanna be too hasty.

(Y/N) (singing):

Now I really wish that I learned how to swim!

(Be The Best!)

Shadowlight (singing):

You must be swift as the coursing river

(Be The Best!)

With all the force of a great typhoon

(Be The Best!)

With all the strength of a raging fire

Mysterious as the dark side of

The Moooooooooon!

Find the strength inside you

If you don't, you'll die

Heed my every order

Or you'll say, Goodbye

You have gotta train

And give your all

If not then just go

You're through

Why should I, waste my time

Training you?

(Be The Best!)

Shadowlight (singing):

You must be swift as the coursing river

(Be The Best!)

With all the force of a great typhoon

(Be The Best!)

With all the strength of a raging fire

Mysterious as the dark side of

The Moooooooooon!

(Be The Best!)

Shadowlight (singing):

You must be swift as the coursing river

(Be The Best!)

With all the force of a great typhoon

(Be The Best!)

With all the strength of a raging fire

Mysterious as the dark side of

The Moooooooooon!

(End Song)

(Jordanwolfboy9743: *sigh* Here come the lawsuits, now.)

(Shadowlight2784: We still have loan sharks to pay off. That should honestly be the least of our worries.)

After the training montage had come to an end, Shadowlight stood in front of you all as some of you panted while out of breath.

Shadowlight: Well, that was not entirely incopetent. Well done. But, I believe now is where we put your skills to the test.

(Y/N): Wait. Wait, wait, wait! The training didn't count as putting our skills to the test?!

Shadowlight: You guys were facing cardboard cutouts. V/N's army isn't going to just stand in one place waiting for you to attack. I was just seeing if you could manage to pull off the techniques which seemed to have worked. Now, your real training begins.

Sunset Shimmer: *sigh* We might as well get it done. What's next?

Shadowlight: I think you may find this one a bit more challenging. We're going to do something I like to call...a Mirror Match.

He raised his hand high as eight black and white spots appeared in front of him before they soon rose as they took the form of you and your harem.

The eight of you stared at your counterparts with widen-eyes, unable to really come up with a response as to what you were looking at right now.

Sunset Shimmer: Wha? What are those things?!

Shadowlight: Isn't it obvious? They're you guys but evil. I don't know if V/N's planning to make evil counterparts of all of you but if he is, we must be prepared for it. So, I'm going to have you all face off against yourselves.

Fluttershy: U-Um... I don't know if I'm prepared to... *whisper* fight myself.

Shadowlight: Well, I'm sorry, Fluttershy, but if we ever hope to take down V/N and his army, then you need to learn how to fight. That Infinity Amulet has no limits so he could create hundreds of thousands of you.

Rainbow Dash: But...how are we supposed to fight ourselves?! They have our exact skills and powers! It's a never ending battle!

Shadowlight: I'm sure you'll figure it out somehow.

(Y/N): Wouldn't one strategy be to exploit your own weaknesses? For example, if you were deathly afraid of spiders, would it work if we used spiders against them?

Shadowlight: Yes, brilliant strategizing, Y/N.

(Y/N): Um... was that sarcasm?

Shadowlight: Nope. That one's for real this time. I'm proud of you. The way I see it, you could potentially be the leader here.

(Y/N): Really? I never really saw myself as the leader type.

Shadowlight: A good quality a leader possesses is thorough strategizing. Exploiting your own weakness is a good strategy. Although, your strategy has the possibility of backfiring.

Sunset Shimmer: How so?

Shadowlight: Since you're exploiting your weaknesses, you could slip up and the strategy's used against you. Hypothetically, if Y/N were correct about you all having arachnophobia, all of you could also let your guard down because of that fear and your opponents could use that to their advantage.

(Y/N): *sigh* There goes my brilliant strategy.

Shadowlight: At least you had a strategy, Y/N. If you went into battle with no strategy at all and just improvised the whole way through, you'd have a really high chance of having your rear kicked to the curb. Anyway, I think we've done enough talking for now. Let's see if you all can find a way to take on yourselves.

He then turns to the clones he created of all of you.

Shadowlight: Give it your all. Don't hold back just because they look like you. Use every advantage you have.

Clones: Right!

Rarity: *gulp* O-Oh dear!

Rainbow Dash: We're so screwed.

(Y/N): With that kind of attitude, we are. Come on, girls. We've gotta give it our all here.

Pinkie Pie: Y/N's right, guys! We've fought each other before. Remember the Fall Formal and the Friendship Games?

Sci-Twi: This is different, Pinkie! We're facing all of us and that includes our boyfriend! I know he's a fake but I don't want to hurt him!

(Y/N): Twi, it's fine. In fact, I very much encourage you to do so.

Sunset Shimmer: Yeah, Sci-Twi. It's a chance to truly see what we're made of. What we're capable of and what we're not.

Sci-Twi: B-But I... I...

Anti (Y/N): Shy! Take them out

He demands as the Fluttershy clone starts charging at you all. You turned back to your girls who still had a look of unease aside from Sunset who was standing next to you with a determined grin.

Sunset Shimmer: Come on, everyone. They may have our skills and strengths but they also have our weaknesses. We can do this, you've got to have faith.

She grabbed her geode and transformed into her Pony-Up form.

(Y/N): Sunset, try to do what I did. Really dig deep down inside yourself and see if you can find any other abilities besides your mind reading magic. Remember, I believe in you, Sunshine.

She smiled at you before pecking your lips.

Sunset Shimmer: Thanks, Y/N.

You looked back at the rest of the girls who still looked uneasy, especially Fluttershy who was quaking in fear. You thought for a moment before an idea came to mind as you went up to her.

(Y/N): Fluttershy, I know that you're afraid of fighting but you have to. If you don't, V/N will not only control the minds of everyone, but also the forest animals too.

Fluttershy's eyes widened at that before her face became filled with rage.

Fluttershy: That... big... awful... MEANIE!!!

Anti Fluttershy: Aww, you trying to be mad? *sarcasm* That's so...cute!

She laughed as she threw a punch to Fluttershy's face only for it to be stopped by Fluttershy's hand which was holding her fist. 

Fluttershy: No one... is gonna turn my furry friends... INTO MINDLESS BEASTS!!

She threw a hard kick into her look alike's stomach sending her flying into the side of a building causing a huge explosion. You all stared with astonishment at seeing Fluttershy pull that off. Even Shadowlight was surprised by that before he quickly grew a smile.

Shadowlight: Well, that's a plus for your side, Y/N.

Fluttershy: Did... did I... kill her?

Her question was soon answered in the form of Anti Fluttershy slowly stepping out of the hole while covered in bruises.

Anti Fluttershy: Okay... you just dug your own grave, you spineless, nature freak!

She hovered into the air and took off towards Fluttershy like a bullet. Thankfully, Fluttershy ducked in time as her doppelganger sailed right over her and into a wall. She comedically slid down it before prying herself from the wall. She looked back in a fit of anger before spitting out a tooth.

Anti Fluttershy: Hmph. You're pathetic. Can't even fight back unless you're in a fit of rage.

Fluttershy's glare came back to her.

Fluttershy: Fine then. You want to see what I can do? Then I'll gladly show you!

She grabbed her geode and Ponied-Up. She then focused her powers and summoned what looked to be a whole group of ethereal animals.

Fluttershy: Help me, my friends!

(Y/N): Wha? OH, COME ON!!! She gets to summon an army of animal apparitions?!

Shadowlight: Hey, calm down. I did say you can summon armies too, you know. I promised I'd teach you after you win.

(Y/N): *sigh* I guess.

While you were distracted by that, your look alike quickly ran up and punched you in the face sending you back a few feet.

Anti (Y/N): That's what you get for being sloppy!

(Y/N): Sloppy?! Oh, that does it! It's time to kick... "my"... butt!

You grabbed your geode and Ponied-Up before taking off towards your look alike and slammed into him as the both of you crashed through a set of buildings.

Shadowlight: *sigh* Looks like he's going down the "Man Of Steel" route of taking down foes. Luckily for him, this is a void or else his parents would be in a lot of debt right now.

Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash and her clone were battling it out while using their super speed.

Rainbow Dash: Ngh! This is irritating.

Anti Rainbow Dash: *mocking* Ngh! This is irritating.

Rainbow Dash: Hey! Stop copying me!

Anti Rainbow Dash: *mocking* Hey! Stop copying me!

Rainbow Dash: I said it first!

Anti Rainbow Dash: *mocking* I said it first!

Rainbow growled before Ponying-Up and summoned lighting all around her body. She held out her hand as a bolt of lightning appeared in it before she threw it at Anti Rainbow who barely managed to dodge it. Meanwhile, Pinkie Pie and her anti counterpart kept throwing exploding sprinkles at each other.

Pinkie Pie: Hey, you're really good at this!

Anti Pinkie Pie: Who cares?! These sprinkles are lame!

Pinkie Pie: *gasp* Sprinkles aren't lame!

Anti Pinkie Pie: Says you! It's as worthless and pointless as whatever it is we're doing!

Pinkie Pie: That does it!

She grabbed her geode and Ponied-Up before summoning two ethereal party cannons over her shoulders.

Pinkie Pie: Time to light you up!

She said before rapidly firing her cannons at her anti self which deterred her.

Shadowlight: Hmm, very creative, Pinkie.

Meanwhile, Applejack and her counterpart were trying to push each other away as their super strength made the floor beneath them cave in.

Applejack: Where y'all even gettin' that strength?! Ya don't even have a geode!

Anti Applejack: What are you talkin' about?! I totally have a geode!

Her eyes darted to the left and right after she said that. Applejack rolled her eyes at that before groaning.

Applejack: I know a lie when I see one.

Anti Applejack: It's not a lie!

Her eyes darted again as Applejack groaned once more. She then Ponied-Up and pushed her anti self away. She lifted her hand up as a boulder sized apple appeared above her. She smirked before throwing the monster sized apple at her opponent who took the brunt of it and stuck to it as it rolled away. Meanwhile, Rarity and her anti self were throwing diamond shields at one another.

Anti Rarity: Those diamonds are mine! Oh, and that geode! Oh, and that outfit!

Rarity: Darling, you have a hoarding problem. Just pick one and I'll let you have it.

Anti Rarity: No! I want all of them! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine!

She yelled before she started repeatedly saying "Mine" for a few minutes.

Rarity: It's either one of them or nothing, darling. You can't have all of them.

Anti Rarity: Fine then. I'll take that handsome boyfriend of yours. I bet he's filthy rich!

Rarity's eyes widened before her face grew furious.

Rarity: No one... will take the love of my life... AWAY FROM ME!!

She grasped her geode and Ponied-up before summoning a long indigo colored whip. She cracked it before maneuvering her arm so that the whip would wrap itself around her doppelganger. She pulled back causing Anti Rarity to spin around multiple times causing her to get dizzy as Rarity used her whip to make her trip. Meanwhile, Sci-Twi and Anti Sci-Twi were using their psychic powers on each other but kept cancelling them out with their own.

Anti Sci-Twi: Is this the best tactic you can think of? *sarcasm* And you're supposed to be smart.

Sci-Twi: At least I'm not condescending like you.

Anti Sci-Twi: *sarcasm* Ooooh, what a great great burn there. *speaking* Honestly, you make me sick! You really think Y/N wants you around?

Sci-Twi: Don't try to deceive me! I know he loves me and I love him too!

Anti Sci-Twi: Oh, please! Shadowlight's right! You're only with him because he's the only thing that gives you joy in life! If he were to leave you, you would have nothing else!

Shadowlight: Do not rope me into this, Twilight!

Sci-Twi: What do you know? You were born only a few minutes ago from Shadowlight! Just because you are me doesn't mean you know me! You don't know the first thing about me!

She Ponied-Up before her hands started glowing. She then brought them together and fired a blast of purple energy at Anti Sci-Twi which knocked her back into one of the buildings. She then looked down at her hands with shock.

Sci-Twi: I... I think I inherited one of Y/N's abilities!

You saw this from a distance as you let out a groan.

(Y/N): OH, COME ON!! Now everyone's getting my abilities?! What a bunch of-

You were cut short by your anti self throwing a hook to your jaw knocking you down to the floor.

Anti (Y/N): Like I said, SLOPPY!!

You glared back at him as your eyes became slitted.

(Y/N): Oh, you...are...so...freaking...DEAD!!!  

A bright (F/C) light enveloped your form as your body began to grow in size.

Shadowlight: What... the...

He stared with astonishment as your body continued to grow until it was colossal sized. The light finally diminished as your features were finally revealed much to everyone's surprise.

Shadowlight: Well, well, it seems he's gotten the hang of going colossal. Really takes after his old man.

Your doppelganger only looked up in fear as you looked back down upon him.

Anti (Y/N): Oh... crap.

*SLAM*

His body was crushed beneath your enormous fist as it sent smoke flying everywhere, destroying half the city in the process. Once the smoke cleared, you lifted your fist to see that your doppelganger was smushed like a pancake. You then looked around at the accidental destruction before scratching the back of your neck nervously.

Colossal (Y/N): Hehe, oops.

Shadowlight: Just be glad it's a void, dude.

Finally, we pan over to Sunset who was having a hard time battling her evil self due to her not having a lot of defensive magic on hand.

Anti Sunset Shimmer: You really are pathetic. It's no wonder you rely on these so-called "friends" of yours.

Sunset Shimmer: *pant* I *pant* am not *pant* pathetic!

Anit Sunset Shimmer: Pfft, please! You can't even fight yourself and yet I can. It proves just how weaker you've gotten ever since you let them brainwash you. You were so much stronger when you were like me! You were better when you were like me!

Sunset Shimmer: No, I wasn't! I was popular, but I was lonely! I never wanna be like that again!

Anti Sunset Shimmer: Then give up and accept your death! If you won't embrace your supposed "inner strength", then I'll take over for you once I'm finished with you.

She closed her eyes for a second before she reopened them revealing her scleras to have darkened to pitch black as she began to transform like how Sunset did at the Fall Formal before she morphed into a much newer form of Demon Shimmer.

Anti Sunset Shimmer: Now, let's make this quick.

She aimed her arm at Sunset as her palm started to glow with magic. Sunset's eyes began to water as she closed them in shame.

Sunset Shimmer: *thinking* Maybe... maybe she's right. I can't beat her. I don't have any other form of magic besides my mind reading magic, but that's useless against her. I... I can't do this. I can't...

Suddenly, your voice popped up in her mind.

(Y/N) (past): Really dig deep down inside yourself and see if you can find any other abilities besides your mind reading magic. Remember, I believe in you, Sunshine.

Her eyes reopened themselves as her face grew more determined.

Sunset Shimmer: *thinking* I... I can't let Y/N down! I must defeat her!

She then began to focus on her geode.

Sunset Shimmer: *thinking* Come on, geode. Give me the power I need to defeat my anti self. Please...

Without warning, her geode began to glow as she too began to transform. When the light faded, she was revealed to be wearing a white dress with red and yellow outlinings along with a pair of white boots wrapped in flames. That's not the only thing though... she now had a pair of wings!

Everyone could only stare at her with widened eyes and gaping mouths. Anti Sunset Shimmer soon gained control of herself as she grew a cocky smirk once again.

Anti Sunset Shimmer: What? Am I supposed to be scared of your little angel costume? Give me a break.

She laughs as she fires a blast of magic at her predecessor. Sunset opened her eyes and knocked away the blast with a flick of her fingers. Anti Sunset Shimmer's jaw dropped through the floor.

Anti Sunset Shimmer: W-What?!

Sunset Shimmer: While you may be powerful, it's nothing compared to the magic of friendship! But more importantly...

She pauses as she turns to you with a heartfelt smile.

Sunset Shimmer: ...it's nothing compared to the magic of love I share with Y/N.

Anti Sunset Shimmer: Ugh! Blech! Love?! Are you for real?! Love is just a pathetic notion that you lesser life forms cling to so you don't feel so alone!

She charged at Sunset and threw a right hook her way, but was met by a block. She attempted to land a kick on her but was attacked in the groin area during the process. Anti Sunset Shimmer fell backwards as she landed into the street creating a large long hole in the middle of it until she hit a lamppost. Sunset flies over to her as she looks down at her counterpart with a smile.

Sunset Shimmer: Love is no pathetic notion. It's a gifted treasure that not many can say that they share. I could never understand that until I let them into my life. I've changed for the better and am living a much happier life than the one I had as you. Now...it's time to finally put you behind me.

She held her hands up and her eyes flashed white as a red and yellow ball of magical energy emitted from above her hands and grew in size at a rapid pace. Eventually when it was big enough, Sunset absorbed the magical energy ball and shot a large, powerful beam with the same colors at her anti self as she screamed and slowly started to decay before she was eradicated completely. Once her evil self was fully destroyed, Sunset lowered her arms back down to her sides as you walked up next to her.

(Y/N): Sunset, I don't think there will ever be a better moment to let go of your past then that.

Sunset Shimmer: *giggles* Yeah, and it's all thanks to you.

(Y/N): Heh, it was my pleasure, Sunshine.

Just then, you all heard the sound of clapping as you turned around and saw Shadowlight giving you all a round of applause for your performance.

Shadowlight: That went a lot better than I would've anticipated! Seems like you all truly have some potential at beating V/N.

(Y/N): Thanks, but why do I feel like there's a but coming?

Shadowlight: Because there is one coming. That was just phase one.

Rainbow Dash: W-WHAT?!?!

Shadowlight: Calm down, calm down. This next one won't be as challenging. I can assure you that. In fact, I think you have a much better chance at winning since you're all acquainted with these next opponents.

Applejack: What's that supposed to mean?

Shadowlight: You'll see in a second. Let me just clean this place up a bit.

Shadowlight pulled his right arm to his left side before releasing it outwards which cleaned up all the debris and repaired the damage to the city. He then stomps on the ground hard as six pillars of black and white light appear next to him. When they disappear, in their place stood darker forms of all the previous villains you've faced that ranged from the Dazzlings to Juniper Monstar.

(Y/N): *sigh* You know, I was REALLY hoping not to see them again.

Shadowlight: Well, I did take you to V/N's castle, didn't I? So technically, you already saw them again before.

(Y/N): *groan* Touché. So, I'm guessing we're gonna be fighting them too?

Shadowlight: Of course. Trust me, this will all be useful in the end.

Rainbow Dash: Well, this should be easier. I mean, we've defeated them all before.

Shadowlight: Heh, I wouldn't be so cocky if I were you, Rainbow. You see, these ones are much more dangerous than the ones they're based off of.

Sci-Twi: How so?

Shadowlight: Well, for starters, they're more vicious, more powerful, and more intimidating. And to top it all off, you'll be fighting all of them at once.

Fluttershy: O-Oh, dear...

Rainbow Dash: I thought you said this was going to be easy!

Shadowlight: I said it was less challenging. I didn't say anything about it being easy.

Sunset Shimmer: Otherwise, this wouldn't be training, am I right?

Shadowlight: Exactly, Sunset. A perfect way to look at it. Now, this will be the last test for you girls. Y/N however, I have one more in store for you.

(Y/N): You mean... our fight? To see if I'm ready to wield armies?!

You asked excitedly to which Shadowlight nodded.

Shadowlight: Indeed. However, I wouldn't get my hopes up just yet if I were you. You still have these creatures to take on. I'm really looking forward to our fight so I hope you don't disappoint me.

You smirked at him.

(Y/N): Well, then I say... Bring. It. On!!

Shadowlight smirked back as he turned to his summoned counterparts of the fallen villains.

Shadowlight: Show them what you're made of.

Shadow Villains: Right!

With that, you and the girls turned to your adversaries with determined faces as you began charging at one another. You finally clashed as you focused your attention on Gaea Everfree's clone.

(Y/N): You really want me to use the weed killer again, it seems.

Shadowlight: Weeds grow over weeds, Y/N. It takes more than a few sprays to wipe them out.

Shadow Gaea: Exactly.

She planted her arms into the ground which made black thorny vines grow out of the ground which was starting to bring back some rather unpleasant memories for you.

(Y/N): *thinking* Timber almost died because of these things. I refuse to let it happen to my girls!

You focused your magic as your eyes flashed (F/C) for a second as transparent (F/C) swords materialized in both of your hands.

You quickly moved to the vines and began swiping at all of them, chopping them off much to Shadow Gaea's surprise.

(Y/N): If I can't use weed killer, then I'll resort to a weed wacker!

Shadow Gaea: *growls* You think having a couple of measly swords is going to save you?! It wont!

She tried to summon more vines to try and ensnare you in them, but you quickly maneuvered away from them while cutting them to ribbons. Meanwhile, the girls were focused on the other adversaries as Sci-Twi was dueling Shadow Sparkle.

Shadow Sparkle: *maniacal laugh* You thought you were finished with me? You're sadly wrong!

Sci-Twi: You really think you can scare me anymore? No! Because I know that you'll never be better than me!

Shadow Sparkle: Such confidence. It's too bad that it can easily be mistaken for arrogance!

She fired a blast of magic at Sci-Twi who countered it with her own resulting in a power struggle. At first, Shadow Sparkle seemed to be getting the upper hand as her blast slowly overpowered Sci-Twi's blast.

Shadow Sparkle: *chuckles* I can feel you slipping.

Sci-Twi: I wouldn't get cocky.

She then put more oomf into her blast which resulted in both blasts evening out. That is until Sci-Twi's blast slowly started to overtake Shadow Sparkle's. Meanwhile, the rest of the girls were busy dealing with the Shadow Sirens and Shadow Juniper.

Rainbow Dash: How are we gonna take down the sirens? They'll just blast us away with their awful singing.

Shadow Sonata: Our singing isn't that bad...right Adagio?

Shadow Adagio: Of course it isn't! You will pay for insulting us!

Shadow Aria: Why not make it easy for us and just give up?

Sunset Shimmer: In your dreams!

Shadow Juniper: Dreams? I used to have dreams until they were taken from me by you!

Sunset Shimmer: Who asked you?

Shadow Juniper growled at that before charging at Sunset who quickly ponied up into her angel form and pushed her away a few feet. She then summoned her magical ball from before and fired it at her causing her to try and push it away. She struggled in trying to push back the ball as it seemed like her demise was imminent. However, this was stopped when the Shadow Sirens sung as waves of black energy hit Sunset causing her to lose control of her ball of energy giving Shadow Juniper enough time to push it away from her.

Sunset Shimmer: Girls, I can destroy Shadow Juniper, but I'll need you to distract the Shadow Sirens!

Rarity: How?! Their singing won't let us get close to them!

Sunset Shimmer: Just keep them occupied while I take on Shadow Juniper.

Pinkie Pie: You got it, Sunset! Hey Sirens! Get a taste of some explosive confetti!

She fired her ethereal party cannons at the Sirens which made them turn their attention to the rest of the girls. Meanwhile, you kept slashing at Shadow Gaea's vines one by one as she was growing more irritated.

Shadow Gaea: Why are you still somehow alive?!

(Y/N): Because I'm beyond stubborn to live! Now, eat this!

You threw one of your swords at her as she batted it away. She then noticed that you followed closely behind it while lunging your sword towards her chest. She reacted quickly by grabbing the blade end of the sword and tried pushing you away.

Shadow Gaea: *grunt* You won't kill me so easily!

She then got an idea as she secretly used one of her vines to creep up behind you without you noticing. It quickly wrapped itself around your neck choking you which caused you to slowly lose your grip on your sword.

Shadow Gaea: *chuckles* Looks like this is checkmate for you, Y/N.

Her vine continued to choke you as your vision began to get a little blurry from a lack of oxygen.

Shadow Gaea: Once I'm through with you, I'm gonna go after your little girlfriends! They will be much better as corpses.

Hearing that enraged you as your eyes flashed (F/C) as a (F/C) spot emerged down below on the ground before it rose up revealing a demonic looking wolf.

Shadow Gaea noticed this as her face became a mixture of confusion and fear.

Shadow Gaea: Wh-What is that thing?!

(Y/N): Sic 'em!

The wolf howled in a demonic voice before pouncing and sinking its teeth into Shadow Gaea's stomach causing her vine to lose its grip on your neck as you managed to plunge the sword into her chest. She slowly sunk to the ground while you held onto the sword as you stared angrily at her.

(Y/N): This time... stay dead!

Shadow Gaea: Y-Y-You... p-pathetic... w-w-weak... ling...

With that last word, Shadow Gaea faded away into shadows leaving you and the wolf by yourselves. You turned to the whole who swiveled its head to look at you.

(Y/N): I don't know how I summoned you, but... thank you.

It nodded its head before it licked your face.

(Y/N): *chuckles* I think I like you too.

Demon Wolf: Thank you, Master.

(Y/N): You... you can talk?

Demon Wolf: I can.

(Y/N): Wow, that's... so cool! Hmm, what should I call you? How about... Fenrir?

Fenrir: Y-You're giving me a name?! I...I don't know what to say! Thank you, Master!

(Y/N): Heh, it's my way of saying thank you for saving me.

Fenrir: Not to ruin a good moment, Master, but your girlfriends are still in trouble.

(Y/N): O-Oh, right! Thanks for reminding me, Fenrir!

You and him ran over to the girls who were still struggling against the Shadow Sirens and Shadow Juniper.

(Y/N): Girls, great news, Shadow Gaea is no more!

Rainbow Dash: Sweet! That's one less thing to worry about!

Sunset Shimmer: Still though, we need to deal with the rest of them.

You then looked up to see Sci-Twi still in her power struggle with Shadow Sparkle. You flew up next to Sci-Twi as she looked over to you.

(Y/N): Need a hand, my adorkable nerd?

Sci-Twi: Would love one, my handsome savior.

You nodded before your hands glowed and you fired a blast of (F/C) magic which mixed together with Sci-Twi's adding more power. Your blast began to overpower Shadow Sparkle's even more who began to sweat.

Shadow Sparkle: N-No! I... can't... lose... again! This... is... cheating!

Sci-Twi: I'm sorry, Shadow Sparkle, but much like with Sunset, it's time to put my past behind me!

(Y/N): Also, it's not cheating if you're doing it for the right reasons such as saving the world!

Shadow Sparkle: Cheating is cheating regardless of your reasons!

Sci-Twi: Hmph! Says you!

She winked at you as you smiled at her. You both decided that you have had just about enough of her as you put your all into your blasts as it overtook Shadow Sparkle's blast even more. Finally, your blast consumed her as her form faded into nothing. Sci-Twi then grew a huge grin on her face as she pulled you into a hug.

Sci-Twi: Yes, yes, yes, yes! We did it! We did it!

(Y/N): Hehe, yeah, we sure did. Two down, four more to go.

Rainbow Dash: Uh, guys? A little help here!

Sci-Twi ended the hug upon hearing that as her face grew red with embarrassment.

Sci-Twi: Hehe... right. Let's just... help them out, shall we?

(Y/N): Right behind you, Twi.

You flew down to where the others were as you gazed up at the Shadow Sirens.

(Y/N): Okay, if we're going to defeat Juniper, then we'll need to deal with the Sirens first.

Applejack: And do ya have a plan on how we're gonna do that?

(Y/N): As a matter of fact, I do. Rarity, I need you to summon forth your whip.

Rarity: Very well.

She did as you requested and summoned her magical whip.

(Y/N): Here's how it'll go, Rainbow, I'll need you to wrap Rarity's whip around the Sirens using your super speed and your shock ability to weaken them.

Rainbow Dash: You got it, babe!

(Y/N): Applejack, once the whip subdues them, I'll need you to use your super strength to keep the whip firmly wrapped around them.

Applejack: I won't let ya down, sugarcube.

(Y/N): Finally, Sunset, while the rest of us are dealing with them, you focus on summoning enough energy to obliterate Shadow Juniper. You got it?

The girls all spoke their agreements which made you smile at them before it turned into a smirk.

(Y/N): Alright, let's move!

Rainbow grabbed Rarity's whip and started pulling on the end of it causing it to extend. The Sirens noticed her coming and tried to blast her with their song waves, but she quickly dodged them with ease. She began wrapping the whip around them as she activated her shock ability causing the Shadow Sirens to lose some of their strength.

Shadow Adagio: N-No! This can't be!

Shadow Sonata: Aww, come on! We were so close to winning!

Shadow Aria: T-This sucks!

Once all three of them were firmly held in place, Rainbow passed the whip onto Applejack who pulled on it with all her might. She began to spin the Shadow Sirens around and around as she started to pick up speed with the help of Rainbow Dash until she let go as they slammed straight into a nearby skyscraper before they fell all the way to the ground. The skyscraper had taken a large amount of damage which was seen from the crack of where the sirens landed. The top part of the skyscraper started to fall at an increasingly fast rate until it crushed the Shadow Sirens straight into the ground. When the smoke cleared, the Shadow Sirens' heads could still be seen as they were stuck under a mountain of rubble.

(Y/N): Hmm, still kicking.

You then got an idea as you turned to Pinkie.

(Y/N): Pinkie, you mind if I use some of your party cannons' candy confetti for a moment.

She smiled before hovering her cannon over your outstretched hand and shook some into your palm.

Pinkie Pie: There you go, sweetie.

(Y/N): Thanks, Pinks.

You smirked at the Shadow Sirens one final time before tossing the candy at their heads as the candy began to glow. With one last large explosion, the Shadow Sirens were destroyed at last.

(Y/N): Now, all that's left is Shadow Juniper.

Shadow Juniper: Did someone call for me?

She said as she appeared from behind a building and charged at you all. You looked back at Sunset who was still gathering her energy.

(Y/N): Looks like we'll have to buy Sunset some time. Let's keep the drama queen busy, girls! Let's go, go, go!

The Rainbooms: Right!

You quickly put your fingers between your mouth and whistled, calling Fenrir to your aid.

Fenrir: Master?

(Y/N): What do you say we go for the Achilles heel, Fenrir?

Fenrir: I'd say, let's give her a bite to remember, Master!

You nod as you climb on top of him before pointing at Shadow Juniper.

(Y/N): Let's give her the bite of her life.

Fenrir nods before swiftly looping around Shadow Juniper and biting at her heel causing her to yelp in pain.

Shadow Juniper: You miserable mutt! That's not a chew toy!

(Y/N): Well, now it is!

You jumped off Fenrir's back and gave Shadow Juniper a mean right hook to her jaw causing her to fly backwards for several feet before landing on the street.

(Y/N): Aw, yeah! That's twice now that I've been able to do that!

Shadow Juniper: Grrrrr! I've had enough of this!

She roared as she slashed you with her claws. Out of the corner of your eye, you noticed that Sunset now had an aura all around her indicating that she was nearly there. However, one thing came to mind. Juniper has been shown to not only have strength on her side, but also some speed too. Getting her to stand still would be easier said than done. That is, until you had gotten an idea. It was a crazy one, but it's one that you were going with. So, with a plan in mind, you quickly looped around Shadow Juniper and wrapped your arms around hers while pinning her to your body.

Shadow Juniper: W-What are y-you, doing?!

(Y/N): Keeping you in place for what's to come next.

Shadow Juniper: W-W-WHAT?!?!

(Y/N): Sunset! How's it going over there?!

Sunset Shimmer: I'm almost there, Y/N! Just a little bit more power!

Shadow Juniper: *growls* You can't possibly expect to hold me in place AND dodge the attack, do you?!

Shadowlight, meanwhile, watched from a distance as he started growing a little concerned for you.

Shadowlight: Y/N, this is probably the stupidest thing you could ever do!

(Y/N): Hey, if I have to take one for the team, then I'll do it!

Rainbow Dash: B-But Y/N, you can't! There's gotta be another way!

(Y/N) (telepathy): There is, Rainbow. I have super speed like you. I'll just dodge it at the very last second.

Rainbow stared for a moment before grinning to herself.

Shadow Juniper: L-Let me go!

(Y/N): Not a chance!

She continued to struggle in your grip, but thanks to your super strength you kept a firm grip on her.

Sunset Shimmer: Alright, it's fully charged!

(Y/N): Shoot her, Sunshine! Hurry!

Sunset Shimmer: B-But, what about you?!

(Y/N): Trust me, I'll be fine!

Sunset Shimmer: I'll... I'll trust you.

She stretched out her arms as a red and yellow aura glowed all around her. Shadow Juniper grew more fearful upon seeing this as she ferociously tried to shake you off, but to no avail.

Sunset Shimmer: Back to the Shadows... from once you came!

With that, a blast of red and yellow light rocketed its way towards the both of you. You quickly pushed Shadow Juniper towards the blast before activating your super speed and running away in time.

Shadow Juniper: NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

She screamed one final time as the blast consumed her and she faded away into nothing. Finally, after much trial and tribulation, the Shadow clones were beaten as you and the girls stood with tired looks on your faces. That is, until you all cheered loudly.

Pinkie Pie: We did it, we did it, we did it, we did it!

Rainbow Dash: Yeah, we did! We kicked some shadow clone butt!

(Y/N): I'll admit, we really did pull through there.

???: I gotta say, I really didn't expect you guys to win.

You all turned to see Shadowlight standing there with a huge grin.

(Y/N): What, you were expecting us to die or something?

Shadowlight: With how you guys were handling it? It was leaning towards that. Also, I've gotta say, that was a really stupid, but also gutsy, move back there, Y/N.

(Y/N): Well, I figured that that was the only way to keep her in place so Sunset could finish her off.

Shadowlight: Ah, well, you passed at least. Now, onto the final phase. Let's see if you're prepared to handle it, Y/N.

(Y/N): *sigh* Normally, I would ask if you'd allow us to take a momentary break, but I'm assuming that would be followed up by a no, wouldn't it?

Shadowlight: Of course you can. You all did great out here so a well-deserved break is the least I can do.

(Y/N): Oh... good. In that case...

You teatered backwards until you hit the ground with a loud thump as Shadowlight rolled his eyes playfully.

Shadowlight: Can someone wake him up in about ten minutes or so?

Sunset Shimmer: Sure thing, Edge.

(Ten Minutes Later)

We find you and Shadowlight standing far from each other while staring one another down with stern looks.

Shadowlight: Alright, as I promised, Y/N. You get to battle me next. If you succeed, then I'll teach you how to summon armies.

(Y/N): And if I lose?

Shadowlight: Well... then I don't teach you. And you keep practicing until you ARE able to beat me. Is that a deal?

(Y/N): I don't really have much to lose, so yeah. Let's do it.

You smacked your fists together and smirked at him. He smirked back at you as he got into a stance.

Shadowlight: But first, let's make the battleground more... interesting.

He raised his arms up as the scenery around you began to change. Soon, you all found yourselves in a new location that you've never seen before.

(Y/N): Huh, quite the location you've picked out, Edge.

Shadowlight: If we're gonna fight, it's better to do it in the proper environment. Oh, one more thing.

He raised his arm above the Rainbooms as a black and white barrier surrounded them before he turned back to you.

Shadowlight: You don't want to accidentally hurt your girls in the fight now, do you?

(Y/N): No, I most certainly wouldn't, Edge.

Shadowlight: I figured as much. Now then, let's get on with this.

(Y/N): You're not gonna play music this time like you've done previously?

Shadowlight: *chuckles* You know, maybe you should keep opening that big, fat, mouth of yours.

He snapped his fingers before as dramatic music began to play from no audible source.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

The both of you got into a fighting stance as you narrowed your eyes at one another while the girls watched.

Pinkie Pie: You can do it, Y/N!

Rainbow Dash: Yeah, kick his edgy butt!

Sunset Shimmer: You've got this, Y/N!

Fluttershy: Show no mercy! Make him truly suffer for the pain he put us through!

She exclaimed as a devilish smirk appeared across her face while everyone else stared at her with confused and shocked expressions.

Fluttershy: Um...I mean, go Y/N!

The girls continued to cheer for you as you smiled at them.

(Y/N): Thanks, girls.

You turned back to Shadowlight with a look of determination.

(Y/N): Alright Edge, let's do it. I hope you're prepared to take a loss.

He chuckled as he snapped his fingers and a veil of darkness overtook the entire arena making it nearly impossible to see.

Shadowlight (voice): One of my advantages Y/N, is my ability to bend the darkness to my will. See if you can overcome it.

You tried looking around for any clues of his presence, but it seemed that he was completely hidden.

(Y/N): *thinking* Okay, focus Y/N. He's just trying to use the shadows to scare you. You can't let him get what he wants.

Before you could think any further, something out of the corner of your eye caught your attention as it ran towards you quickly. It seemed to be some kind of wolf creature with three conjoined heads as well as a human-like body.

You quickly summoned your sword and managed to block the creature's bite attack as its teeth chomped onto your swords. It tried to swipe at you with its claws but you were able to hold it back.

Shadowlight (voice): Hmm, good reaction speed, but can you keep it up, I wonder?

(Y/N): Don't get cocky, Edge. I'm not some amateur, you know.

Shadowlight (voice): Oh, I'm fully aware of that, Y/N. Did you really think I'd send out just one creature at a time?

(Y/N): Of course not. I'm just telling you that I'm not gonna be easy to take down.

Shadowlight (voice): Oh, I don't doubt that at all. But let's see if that hypothesis can be proven true or not.

You pushed away the wolf creature as it stood a few feet away from you. You then noticed several other creatures appearing behind it.

The creatures began to surround you as you looked at each and every one of them. One of them took a chance to try and pounce at you, but you quickly dodged and sliced it in half. The rest of them began to charge as you hacked them to pieces. After a moment or so, the newly formed creatures were dead at your feet.

(Y/N): *sarcasm* Heh, some creatures they were, Edge.

Shadowlight (voice): I wouldn't celebrate just yet.

You were about to question him on what he meant by that before the disembodied creatures limbs started growing into newer ones. Now, there were several more of them then there were before.

(Y/N): Oh, you gave them the hydra effect, I see. Cut off the head, two more grow in its place.

Shadowlight (voice): You catch on quick, don't you? I guess that makes you all the more motivated to beat me, doesn't it?

(Y/N): You know it does. *thinking* Okay, so, hacking at them isn't gonna work since more grow from the disembodied limbs. What else can I do? Wait, what if I burnt them to cinders?

You looked down at your hands and summoned your aura before closing your eyes. You thought of a burning heat, a heat hotter than any you've ever seen and focused that heat onto your hands. You reopened them and opened your hands as (F/C) flames appeared in them. You smiled at that before turning back to the creatures. One came charging at you as you threw a bunch at it which caved in its face and sent it flying backwards. Your flame began to spread across its body as it slowly burnt to ash and soot.

(Y/N): Bingo.

The rest of them charged at you at the same time while you kept throwing fiery punches their way. However, it didn't go perfectly smoothly as one of them managed to swipe their claw at your side leaving a large scratch mark. You killed the last one before looking down at your wound before looking back at your fiery hands.

(Y/N): Well... this is gonna sting in the morning.

You brought your hand over your slightly bloody wound and pressed down on it. You winced in pain from the flame cauterizing the wound before you took it away.

(Y/N): *pant* That should do it.

Shadowlight (voice): Alright, I think that's enough warming up for you. Now, let's get to the real action.

He said as he stepped out of the darkness with a confident smirk.

(Y/N): So, what am I fighting next? Some other shadow creature you've got under your belt? Maybe a giant scorpion or something?

Shadowlight: Well, I did have this in store for you.

The shadows overtook his form as it began to grow larger and larger in size. You had to back up just to be able to get his full size in view. He finally stopped growing as he turned into a slightly different variant of Black Mamba.

(Y/N): What is this? Shadow of the Colossus?

Black Widow: Actually, this one's called, Black Widow. But don't worry, I'll be sure to show you that one.

He lifted his foot in an attempt to stomp you as you jumped out of the way right as his foot came crashing down into the ground. It swiped at you with its massive hands while you tried your best to dodge them. Unfortunately, he was able to hit you with one of his fists which sent you flying backwards and onto the hard floor. The girls winced at the sight of that.

Rainbow Dash: That's gonna leave a mark.

Sunset Shimmer: A mark? I'm surprised his back didn't shatter upon landing.

Rarity: Yes, but this is Y/N we're talking about. He managed to survive being slammed into concrete multiple times.

Fluttershy: Sure, but he was left in a near death state because of that.

Sci-Twi: I'm sure he's alright. If he was able to take down all of the previous magical creatures we've fought together, I'm sure he can handle this.

You got back up to your feet and cracked your back before looking up at Black Widow.

(Y/N): *thinking* Okay, how am I gonna make this giant fall? Let's see... wait... fall. That's it!

You cracked your neck before grabbing your geode and activating your super speed. You then looped around him several times causing a tornado of smoke to rise. The smoke reached Black Widow's eyes and blinded it as it tried to walk forward as you came up to one of its massive legs. You then grabbed your geode again, this time, activating your super strength. You grabbed one of the ankles and dug your feet into the ground. With a mighty tug, Black Widow started stumbling causing it to slowly fall to the ground before it landed with a thunderous crash. Smoke was kicked up into the air covering the arena much like the shadows did before.

(Y/N): Sorry, Edge but your colossal form is no match for a speedster.

Shadowlight (voice): Well, then I guess I'll have to even the score.

Suddenly, a large black arm emerged from the back of Black Widow as another arm appeared as well and began to split apart the body of the shadow giant before they pushed themselves out of it revealing a still, gigantic form but not as large as Black Widow.

(Y/N): Huh... so we're going for Venom now?

Shadowlossus: Venom is too good not to use.

(Y/N): Hey, you do you, man. *whisper* Even if he's essentially a parasite.

Shadowlossus: PARASITE!?!

He yelled before zooming towards you in a flash and gave you a hard punch to the stomach followed up by a mean right hook to the face. He then grabbed your head and kneed you in the face before using his fists to slam you into the ground.

Shadowlossus: No one calls him a parasite!

You looked back up at him slowly as pain was very much apparent throughout your body. You tried to stand up but you were stopped by Shadowlossus kicking you in the stomach causing you to fly back and roll across the floor.

Sunset Shimmer: Oh no! He's in trouble! We... we've gotta do something!

Sci-Twi: Sunset, we can't interfere! This is something Y/N has to do on his own.

Rainbow Dash: Besides, if we do help him, Edge may not count that as a fair win.

Sunset Shimmer: B-But... but...

Pinkie Pie: But nothing, Sunset! We just need to keep cheering Y/N on no matter what. Like they always say, it's not over until it's over.

Rarity: Pinkie's right, darling.

Sunset looked back at you with scared eyes as you were struggling back up to your feet. However, several long black tendrils wrapped themselves around your limbs as they were revealed to have come from Shadowlossus. He pulled you over to him as he gazed upon your smaller form.

Shadowlossus: Do you give up yet or do I need to pound you some more?

You aimed your hand at him and fired a blast of (F/C) magic at him which only resulted in it bouncing off of his body.

Shadowlossus: Hmph! I'm afraid your little blasts of magic can't harm me. And before you get smart, neither can your little flames.

(Y/N): *thinking* Ngh! What am I going to do? He's clearly got the upper hand right now! Wait...what am I saying? I can shapeshift too! But first, I'll need to free myself... but how?

You thought for a moment as Shadowlossus spoke again.

Shadowlossus: Silence, huh? Very well, I'll take that as a sign that you want even more of a beating.

He sent his fist into your stomach again causing you to grunt as a bit of blood came from your mouth. He then followed it up with several more hard punches to the stomach as your consciousness was slowly fading.

Shadowlossus: Had enough?!

You still didn't say anything as you were still cooking up a plan. Shadowlossus glared at you.

Shadowlossus: Fine then.

The girls continued to watch as Sunset started to tear up a little bit at seeing you in so much pain.

Sunset Shimmer: *thinking* Please... please Y/N. Don't let him beat you!

Shadowlossus brought his fist behind him as he readied another punch.

Shadowlossus: Looks like you lose, Y/N. It's a shame, you didn't really put up much of a fight.

Right when he was about to throw his punch, a blinding light shone forth as it not only blinded him, but also put his body in a constant state of pain as his tendrils finally let go of you.

Shadowlossus: Ow! What the heck?!

(Y/N): I don't really think I need to explain it to you, Edge, but I will anyway. Tell me, what's the darkness' number one enemy? LIGHT!

The bright light continued to inflict never ending pain upon Shadowlossus as his form began to shrink slightly. Once he became small enough, you got rid of the light and grabbed your geode once again.

(Y/N): *thinking* Alright geode, give me something to finish him off!

Your geode glowed as a bright light consumed you. Your body began to change and grow in size like before as Shadowlossus had to cover his eyes to shield them from the blinding light.

Shadowlossus: *thinking* Hmmm, I wonder what this could be.

When the light finally faded away, Shadowlossus reopened his eyes as they widened at the sight of your newly transformed state.

(Y/N): *telepathy* You might control the Shadows, Edge, but when you face the light, you're a fish out of water.

You opened your mouth as several orbs of light appeared and started flying into it. You outstretched your wings which sent rings of light towards Shadowlossus. They wrapped themselves around him which kept him in place as he tried to set himself free.

Shadowlossus: *thinking* Heh, he's mastered the ways of shapeshifting.

Meanwhile, you continued to gather energy into your gaping mouth as a large orb of light grew within it. The orb continued to grow until it finally stopped.

(Y/N): *telepathy* You're finished!

With that, you fired a beam of pure light at Shadowlossus as it consumed his body and made him shrink down even more. A bright light filled the room as the girls had to cover their own eyes as a result. Several moments of silence occurred before the light started to die down until it went away for good. The girls had to blink a few times in order to get their sight back.

Pinkie Pie: I can't see a thing! Did Y/N win?!

Sci-Twi rubbed her eyes before glancing over at the arena and saw you and Shadowlight lying on the floor across from each other.

Sci-Twi: It... It looks like... a tie.

The Rainbooms: A TIE?!?!

Rainbow Dash: How can that be?! We all saw Y/N blast Edge into nothing!

Sci-Twi was about to say something else until she noticed you slowly rising up from the ground with a tired expression.

Sci-Twi: Wait, wait! Hang on! Y/N's standing back up.

You made it to your feet and hunched over in order to catch your breath. You glanced upwards to see Shadowlight still laying on the floor face down in front of you. You slowly walked over to him and knelt down to his level.

(Y/N): Edge... are you okay? Come on, talk to me, buddy.

You said as you shook his shoulder to try and wake him up but he doesn't budge.

(Y/N): Edge? Come on, dude. Wake up.

You shook him a little harder but he still doesn't move. Your face grew a little more concerned.

(Y/N): Come on, I didn't kill you...right? Edge, say something!

Still nothing.

(Y/N): I... I couldn't have killed you, did I? Edge, seriously, this is not funny! Wake up!

You stared down at him for what seemed like hours as his body remained motionless. Your expression grew more horrified at the possibility of accidentally killing him. That is, until you felt something press against the side of your neck as you turned and saw... Shadowlight?! He stood over you with a smirk as he held a sword up to your neck.

Shadowlight: April Fools, pal.

(Y/N): W-Wha- Edge?! B-But, if you're you, then who's...

You looked down to see who you thought to be Edge fade away into shadows.

Shadowlight: A decoy. I did my best to make him accurate and from the looks of it, I'd say his performance was pretty convincing.

You looked back at him with a look of astonishment until it slowly turned into a sad frown.

(Y/N): I... I guess this means I failed, didn't I?

Shadowlight: Nope. If anything, I'd say you won. You really put the hurt on him. I knew that you would pull something like that off and if it was the real me in that scenario, I would have surely been killed or heavily wounded. Luckily, I knew exactly what I was getting into while planning this out so I had a stunt double take my place.

He took the sword away from your neck and held out a hand to you.

Shadowlight: So, while it wasn't the real me, you fought something that was the equivalent of me and managed to defeat him. I guess I owe you some lessons on summons, huh?

You took his hand and he pulled you back up to your feet.

(Y/N): S-So... I... I passed?

Shadowlight: You sure did. I'd say you're about ready to take on V/N and his army. But first, you'll need to learn how to summon armies of your own.

You stared at him with the widest eyes you could manage until a huge grin spread across your lips as you jumped up and down in glee.

(Y/N): WOO-HOO, YEAH!! I DID IT!!

The girls smiled and cheered for you.

Shadowlight: I'm proud of you, "son."

(Y/N): Heh, thanks, "dad."

You both chuckled as Shadowlight eradicated the barrier surrounding the girls as they ran up and pulled you into a group hug.

Sunset Shimmer: Y/N, you were so amazing!

Rarity: Truly, a spectacular performance, love!

Rainbow Dash: That was the most awesome fight I've ever seen, dude!

Pinkie Pie: Yeah, sweetie! That was super-duper-terrifically-terrific!

Sci-Twi: I knew you'd pull through, Y/N!

Applejack: Land sakes, that was somethin' I'll never forget for as long as I'll live!

Fluttershy: I always believed you could do it, Y/N!

(Y/N): Thanks, girls. Now, we're finally ready to face V/N.

???: Oh, is that so?

A sudden voice startled all of you as you all looked up and saw...V/N?!

(V/N): I'll admit, that was a pretty stellar fight between the both of you. Too bad it's all for naught.

Shadowlight: Oh, shut up, you faker!

He fires a blast of magic at V/N as a large hole is seen in his chest. Shadowlight pointed his palm at him as V/N began to get pulled in by a large black typhoon that formed from Shadowlight's hand. V/N screamed in anger before he was completely consumed into Shadowlight's hand. Everyone just stared at him in confusion.

(Y/N): W-Wait... that wasn't the real V/N, was it?

Shadowlight: Of course not. Originally, I planned to have you face a clone of V/N in the event that you lost to see if you still had the potential to beat him but, since you won, there's no need for that.

Sunset Shimmer: Did you have to give us a brief scare with that, though? I really thought it was him for a second.

Shadowlight: Heh, at least it did better than the hockey mask.

(Y/N): *sigh* Never change yourself, Edge. Never change.

Shadowlight: Didn't plan on it, dude.

Pinkie Pie: Oh, why don't we get ourselves some victory smoothies?

Rainbow Dash: Heh, I like that idea.

Shadowlight: First, let's get outta here.

He said as he slashed the space in front of him which created a rift as he turned to the rest of you.

Shadowlight: After you.

You all stepped through as he followed suit. Moments later, we find you all at Aunt Orange's smoothie shop sipping on your drinks as you turned to look at Shadowlight.

(Y/N): Hey Edge, I don't think I've asked you yet, but what did you find out when you went to Equestria? What's V/N been up to?

Shadowlight: *sigh* It's worse than what I thought he was going to do.

(Y/N): What could possibly be worse than assembling the Infinity Amulet or reviving all the villains Princess Twilight faced?

Shadowlight: Doing both of them and he's planning to overthrow all of Equestria's kingdoms in the process.

Rarity: That's horrible!

Shadowlight: Horrible's an understatement, Rarity. It's a nightmare.

Rainbow Dash: Well, now that we've discovered some new powers of our own, it'll make it easier to beat him, right?

Shadowlight: It'd make it harder for him to beat you but it won't guarantee a win. Not with the Infinity Amulet in his possession.

Sci-Twi: Has he added any more stones to it?

Shadowlight: From what my doppelganger has informed me, he's planning on retrieving Discord's chaos magic.

Sunset Shimmer: Wait, he's planning to do that?! From what Twilight's told me, he's the spirit of chaos and disharmony. How can V/N manage to get some of his magic?

Shadowlight: I'd assume it'd be through smooth-talking or he just straight up assassinated him. Though, I'm not sure how that'd be possible since Discord can't be killed that easily.

(Y/N): So... that would mean he's on his way to getting four now. He's... he's close to possessing them all.

You said in a worried voice.

Shadowlight: I've made three clones of you that should have alerted the princesses by now. Hopefully, if he ever tries to strike, they'll be prepared for it.

(Y/N): Um, why me?

Shadowlight: Because the Umbrum race is frowned upon in their society.

(Y/N): Uhh, alright. Anyway, you said you created this Infinity Amulet many years ago. Didn't you develop a failsafe just in case the amulet itself were to succeed?

Shadowlight: As a matter of fact, Y/N, there is. You see, back when I worked with V/N, I knew deep down that if the Infinity Amulet were to be made and used perfectly that I would have had to create something to counteract it. So, let me show you what it is.

He holds his hand out as a black ball of magic formed in his hand before it morphed into a golden Alicorn Amulet with a blue gem on it.

Shadowlight: This right here, is the Concinnity Amulet. The very thing that can counteract the Infinity Amulet.

(Y/N): Really? Does... that mean we already win by default?

Shadowlight: Unfortunately, not. This is a replica I formed much like that pendant you saw when we battled against the skeletal shark.

He said as he waved his hand around, causing the replica to vanish into thin air.

Sunset Shimmer: So then, where's the real one?

Shadowlight: It's been divided into two separate amulets. Grogar didn't want it to interfere with his plans if he ever were to use the Infinity Amulet. So, he split it up and had one of them sent to this world in order to ensure this amulet never gets reassembled.

Fluttershy: One of them is here in this world? So, that would mean the other one is in Equestria somewhere.

Shadowlight: Yes and that one is the one I've managed to retrieve while I was in Equestria.

He pulls out another Alicorn Amulet which possesses the colors of a very light shade of gray and an oceanic blue.

(Y/N): So this is one of the amulets that will assemble the Concinnity Amulet?

Shadowlight: Yes, but, we still need to find the other one in this world.

Sci-Twi: B-But that could be anywhere! How are we supposed to find something as small as that?

Sunset Shimmer: Or worse, what if someone already found this other amulet and uses it for evil like with Juniper or Wallflower?

(Y/N): Then I guess we'll have to find them and make them stop using it. Because, from what it seems like, this amulet will be the only thing that can help us stop V/N. Right, Edge?

Shadowlight: Yes, which is why I'm trusting you to hold onto this, Y/N. This is called the Light Amulet and since you claimed earlier that you're the light against the darkness, I feel that you should be the one responsible for this.

He said as he hands you the Light Amulet.

(Y/N): I won't let you down, Edge.

You said as he nodded. You looked down at the amulet for a second before it started to shake in your hand. It then hovered into the air and floated in front of you all for a second. It then gravitated towards your geode as the two merged together in a flash of light. When you looked back down, you saw that both the amulet and your geode had combined together as your geode was now resting comfortably in the middle of the amulet. You all looked in amazement at that.

Pinkie Pie: Ooooh, sparkly!

(Y/N): Uhhh... is that a good thing or a bad thing that happened?

Shadowlight: I think it's a good thing. Now that your geode's power is combined with the strength of the Light Amulet, you'll have much more powerful abilities you have yet to discover.

You smiled at that.

(Y/N): Well, I guess this means that more training is in order then, wouldn't you say?

Shadowlight: I suppose so, but that'll be for another time. Right now, our main priorities are to figure out who V/N's next victim is and where we can find the Dark Amulet.

Applejack: Where would we even begin to start lookin'?

Shadowlight: I wish I knew but unfortunately, Grogar kept the exact locations of the amulets a secret. I just happened to find the Light Amulet by chance at some pawn shop. Though, if I remember correctly. Sunlight's been studying magic phenomena for years. Perhaps she could be able to locate the Dark Amulet.

(Y/N): Maybe we'll ask her when the time is right. In the meantime, I say we keep our eyes open for anything that even remotely resembles the Concinnity Amulet.

They all nodded to your plan.

Shadowlight: Whatever you say, fearless leader.

He said as he winked at you while you chuckle.

Shadowlight: And hey, much like with V/N, you're gonna need a right hand man. I'd like to throw my hat in for that job.

(Y/N): That sounds good to me, Edge.

Sci-Twi: So, it's settled then? Y/N's our leader? No one objects to this?

The others nodded their heads in response.

Applejack: He might as well be. He's the one with more magical capabilities than the rest of us. Plus, he's the one wearing that amulet thingamajig.

Sci-Twi: Well, I guess that makes sense. Just don't act like one of those leaders who try to assert their dominance over their team.

(Y/N): No worries, Twi. I'll treat you all no differently from how I normally do.

Rarity: Well, that's a relief, love. Anyways, I have no problems with Y/N being our leader.

Sunset Shimmer: Neither do I. He's already one heck of a good boyfriend, I'm sure he'd definitely make a good leader.

(Y/N): Heh, thanks, Sunshine. Anyways, how about we get back to enjoying our drinks?

The Rainbooms & Shadowlight: Yes, sir!

You all laughed as the camera panned out.

(Jordanwolfboy9743: Phew! As fun as that was to write, it took a lot outta me.)

(Shadowlight2784: You and me both, dude. I can't feel my fingers.)

(Jordanwolfboy9743: Well, if you want, we can take a break from this for a little while.)

(Shadowlight2784: It's cool. This'll all be worth it in the end.)

(Jordanwolfboy9743: Well... if you say so. Anyways, what's next on the list?)

(Shadowlight2784: Um...*flipping through script* I believe we're on to...aw crap.)

(Jordanwolfboy9743: What? What is it?)

(Shadowlight2784: *groans* It's the Rollercoaster of Friendship arc.)

(Jordanwolfboy9743: Really? What's wrong with that one? I didn't think it was that bad.)

(Shadowlight2784: It's not bad, per se, but there's one thing that I really don't like about it. It involves the use of social media and you know when a company like Hasbro attempts to appeal to the younger generation with something like a social network or Pop Culture references, you know it never works out in the end.)

(Jordanwolfboy9743: Well, those things can be annoying, but those don't really ruin the whole experience, do they?)

(Shadowlight2784: *sigh* No, they don't. But it's something I wish they would steer clear from. Leave all that stuff to the internet, I say.)

(Jordanwolfboy9743: Yeah, I agree. Hey, why don't you do the outro this time, Shad?)

(Shadowlight2784: Really? I thought that was your gig?)

(Jordanwolfboy9743: It is, but why don't you do it this time?)

(Shadowlight2784: Alright, then. Thanks. *turns to audience* So next time will be the Rollercoaster of Friendship arc. *mutters* Prepare to cringe while you have the time. *speaking* Until then, this is Shadowlight2784...)

(Jordanwolfboy9743: ...and Jordanwolfboy9743...)

(Shadowlight2784 & Jordanwolfboy9743: Signing out! See ya! *walks away*)

(Shadowlight2784: *distantly* Honestly, it's all just lazy, unnecessary crap that they put in that ruins a franchise. Diary of a Wimpy Kid was ruined because of memes and youtubers.)

(Jordanwolfboy9743: *distantly* *sigh* I guess, but whether we like it or not, it's part of the story and we've gotta put it in.)

(Shadowlight2784: *disantly* Yeah, but luckily it's a special so it shouldn't take that long.)

(*silence*)
