The Sulreif Demigod

There they both stood, looking at each other, both nervous and angry at the same time. Just waiting for the other to make a move. Pinkie focused on Twilight’s glowing horn, getting ready to attack her. Suddenly a noise came from behind; Pinkie quickly reacted and looked back. Nothing. Before knowing what even happened, Twilight flew towards Pinkie, just before she was able to look back. She could feel a sharp pain in her neck. Twilight had impaled Pinkie’s neck with her horn that was flowing with magic. Just as she could feel the pain, Pinkie immediately leaped back.

“Gah!” she coughed while holding her left hoof to the wound, trying to stop the bleeding. The wound was small, but it had hit her in a critical place.

“W- What happened?” Pinkie asked in agony.

Twilight was standing a few meters from Pinkie, breathing slowly. Pinkie looked at her with an angry face.

“You just caught me off guard, that’s all! I control my power with the mind and my mind is without a doubt moving faster than your body is able to. You don’t stand a chance!” She loudly marked the last sentence, just as beams of purple mist flew from behind Pinkie, towards Twilight. Twilight saw this and quickly tried to evade, but she only managed the slightly move her body before a beam stroke against her body, leaving a long, narrow wound.

“Give it up!” Pinkie yelled. She focused her mind on one of the statues that was behind her. Cracks began appearing on the life sized statue of Luna. The upper part quickly broke off. Now the 2 pieces were floating a little above the ground under Pinkie’s mind control. “Arrgh!” Pinkie yelled while hurling the two pieces towards Twilight, changing the course of the pieces making them flying towards her from Twilights left side.

“I can’t evade!” Twilight thought to herself, while just being able to get airborne. Unfortunately, Pinkie was still able to change the course of the rock pieces. In a second, she was hit by one of the pieces, which was almost the size of herself, sending her flying to the right with the piece of rock. With the huge weight of the statue, she was smashed into one of the walls, making pieces of the statue shattering. Just as the statue fell down and hit the ground, Twilight followed and landed right next to the piece of rock, which had some blood across it. Twilight began coughing violently, with blood appearing from her mouth. Her body had been smashed by the stone, and it felt as she had some thick liquid stuck in her throat, making it hard to breathe.

“You’re no match for me” In the blink of an eye, Pinkie was standing in front of Twilight, who was lying on the ground, badly wounded.

“Now you die!” she continued to yell as a wave of purple mist began rushing towards her. Pinkie had a deep dark glow in her eyes; it was as if you could almost see the spirit inside her that was ready to kill.

“Wait! Think of you father! You can still save him!” Twilight quickly let out.

Suddenly the mist stopped as Pinkie froze. “Save m-my father?” she whispered.

“Wasn’t that your purpose with this power? Not to kill but to revive? I know the real Pinkie is still inside you. Your family needs you. Your father needs you”

Pinkie was staring blankly into the air. “I…” she mumbled, feeling a flow of different emotions running through her body.

Suddenly a breathtaking pain rushed through Pinkie’s stomach. She looked down; feeling like everything was in slow-motion. Twilight had gotten up, and hit Pinkie in the stomach with both her hind legs, while she was thinking about her father. Time stood still in Pinkies eyes as Twilights hind hooves were smashing towards her stomach. The pressure was intense as everything went back to normal time, just before Pinkie was hurled away from the force of the attack, spinning around in the air before landing several meters away, hard on the ground. While she was down, she couldn’t help put to begin coughing from the powerful attack to her stomach.

“You are right” Twilight said slowly while getting back in her standing position.
“Your mind is faster than my body… but using your mind as the source of your attacks has a disadvantage. If you even get the slightest distracted, you won’t be able to focus your powers on the enemy, thus making it utterly useless. As you remember, just before I attacked you with my horn just a few minutes ago, you looked back because you heard a sound. With my magic, I was able to create a small spark behind you, making a small but critical sound. When you were focused on trying to figure out what it was, you let your guard down and I was able to attack you with full power” Twilight began walking away from Pinkie, towards Celestia who was lying on the ground, passed out from energy loss. As Twilight stood before her body, she sent a flowing beam of magic into her body, restoring some of her energy. Not long after, Celestia opened her eyes.

“Tw- Twilight? What happened?” Celestia slowly tried to get up.

“Princess. I was able to wound Pinkie badly, and I found her weak spot. All we need to do now, is to wake up Luna, so we can perform the spell on Pinkie while we have the chance, freeing her from the curse, then destroying it with our powers combined” Twilight spoke out.

Just as Celestia got up, she looked across the room, seeing Pinkie Pie lying on the floor, coughing, with blood surrounding her. She was speechless that Twilight, alone, was able to beat Pinkie. Her mind quickly focused to Luna, making her look around the room, seeing Luna still lying unconscious to her right.

“Luna!” Celestia yelled, before flying over to her passed out sister.

Twilight quickly followed. “Let me help her princess. You need to save your power” Twilight said reassuringly. Twilight then continued to slowly begin focusing magic to her horn, just as she did with Celestia. It wasn’t long before Luna quickly inhaled, with her eyes wide open.

“What? Celestia? Did we beat her?” Luna asked in confusion while looking around.

Twilight sighed in relief seeing both the princesses were awake again. Celestia was happy to see her sister awake as well; it was clear to see she had been worried.

“I’m not done yet!” A yelling was suddenly heard. Pinkie was storming towards Twilight, getting ready to attack.

“Twilight! Watch out!” Celestia let out.

Twilight just managed to look back, seeing Pinkie running towards her with no chance to evade. Mere inches before Pinkie were able to hit Twilight; her body stopped moving.

“W- What? I can’t move!” Pinkies body had completely tensed up, making it hard to even move her lips. Celestia looked as surprised as Pinkie did.

Twilight was smiling gently. “Oh yeah. Another thing about that attack I did with my horn. When I impaled your neck, I sent electric magic through your veins. It was just a matter of time before it reached you core nerves, shutting your movement down. Your body is paralyzed for at least 5 minutes”

Pinkie had her eyes wide open. “It’s not possible” she thought to herself, just before falling down on the ground, unable to control her movements. She was shaking as she was trying to move her body.

“Celestia! Luna! Now’s our chance!” Twilight said, looking back.

Both the princesses quickly looked up, seeing Pinkie lying almost motionless on the ground. Celestia rushed up to Twilight, but stopped when she saw Luna struggling to get on her hooves. Celestia quickly turned around and went to support Luna. With one hoof around her sister, Luna managed to slowly limb towards Twilight and Pinkie, who was standing in the middle of the room. After a few seconds, Celestia placed Luna to the right of Twilight.

“Can you stand?” Celestia asked.

“Yeah, I’m alright. Thank you” Luna friendly responded.

Celestia nodded as she placed herself to the left of Twilight. They were all looking at Pinkie Pie who seemed to be in pain.

“No! Go away!” she screamed. Mist began rushing out of her, smashing things nearby. Her mind was too shocked to aim properly.

“Quick! We need to do the spell now!” Celestia commanded as mist was surrounding around them.

“Let’s do it!” Twilight then said, lowering her head down, aiming her horn at Pinkie. Luna and Celestia did the same. The three of them began focusing magic in their horns, each making a different color glow. A circle of light was created around Pinkie’s body.

“Go away! Leave me alone! It’s me! Pinkie Pie! Don’t hurt me Twilight!” She yelled with a scared look in her eyes.

“Don’t listen to her!” Celestia let out.

Twilight closed her eyes. “You’re not Pinkie. You’re the evil spirit that took over Pinkies mind!” Twilight yelled the last few words. The glows slowly became sharper around their horns as it was clear to see all 3 of the princesses were putting in a huge effort. The mist was traveling around the room at immense speed, smashing everything it touched. A few silent seconds went by, just before Celestia yelled “Now!”

Suddenly they all lifted their horns up into air, magically dragging the spirit out of Pinkie. In a split second, all the mist around the room rushed into a dark ball just above Pinkie. It was glowing strong, even looking at it brought pain to their eyes.

“There it is! The Sulreif! Twilight, now! Destroy it! You’re the only one with enough power! End this!” Luna yelled.

“WAIT!” A sound suddenly sounded from behind; Rainbow Dash had flown into one of the broken windows, sliding across the room with an intense look in her eyes. “That is not the real Twilight!” She yelled.
“The real Twilight is dead!”
