"Every world has a Heart."
"Gather!" I yelled, using a Magnet spell to pull in a large number of Heartless. A Neoshadow somehow evaded my spell. It jumped towards me, and was denied an attack by my Oathkeeper.
"Where are they?" I wondered. "Ive been searching all of Canterlot, and I havent found a trace of them!"
A large rainbow-colored trail moved through the air with great speed, knocking a Shadow into the ground next to me. After finishing the Heartless off, I changed into pegasus form and flew off towards the trails source. I still wasnt fast enough to catch up. Finally, Rainbow Dash slowed down. I noticed that it looked almost like she had been crying. Her eyes had a slight red tinge to them.
"Hey Rainbow!" I called out to her. "Where`s Twilight?"
"I dont know!" She said worriedly, flying up right next to me. "Ive been looking everywhere for her! Do you think the Heartless got her!?"
"I dont think so. Even if it were to happen, shes more than capable of defending herself. Ive seen it firsthand from her brother, and I dont think she`s that much different in terms of strength."
"You`re right." She took a deep breath. "So, what happened in the Crystal Empire? I saw that giant door, and then it turned black, and that was all I saw."
"Well, we`re halfway to opening the door to Kingdom Hearts. Now we just need the Elements and at least one more Keyblade, which is why I sent Shining Armor off to find Riku."
"Awesome! Were gonna kick that Xemnas guys tail, aren`t we?"
"I dont know about that, Dash. Me and Riku fought him together, and we just barely took him down. That time he was alone, but now he has Discords Nobody and Heartless on his side! It`ll take a miracle to defeat him this time."
"Uh-oh. This is bad."
"Yeah, it`s definitely a stretch to think that-"
"Not that! That!" She pointed down to the streets of Canterlot, where Twilight was standing in a corner, firing various spells at a large crowd of Heartless.
"We have to save her! Come on, Sora!"
"Right!" I changed into my normal human form as we touched down and summoned my Oathkeeper, calling down a multitude of Thundaga spells on the Heartless, then moving in to finish them off. No matter how many Heartless we dispatched, they just kept coming back. We were done for.
Unless...
"Twilight! Rainbow Dash! I have an idea!" I leaned down and began whispering to them after casting a powerful Stopga spell on the Heartless. The two of them prepared for the plan, Rainbow Dash leaning down with her wings outstretched, and Twilight forming a massive amount of magic energy into a single fist-sized orb.
"Let`s do this. Gather!" I cast a full-powered Magnega spell and pulled all of the Heartless in, then flung my Keyblade into the crowd and let it bounce around for a moment before bringing it back to my hand.
"Rainbow, now!" She flew at least six stories into the air and hovered there for a moment before dropping back down.
"Twilight! Hit it!" Twilight fired a gigantic beam of magic from the orb she had summoned right at Rainbow Dash, giving her body an even brighter rainbow coloration. I could see the cone of air forming around her body, but she wasn`t high enough to succeed. As a final precaution, I cast multiple Hastega spells on her to give the right speed boost. Finally, my plan came to fruition.
An immense rainbow-colored explosion struck Canterlot, flying out towards all of Equestria. the effects of the Supersonic Rainboom were not felt only in Canterlot.
The rainbow blew across the Crystal Empire, shaking the building`s foundations and even slightly moving the door to Kingdom Hearts.
The blast was felt in Fillysberg, where Rarity looked up at it, stunned while Riku fought off a swarm of Nobodies.
It was seen in Las Pegasus, where Roxas, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie traveled back towards the Crystal Empire.
The explosion, however, was most powerful right around us. Multiple buildings were knocked to the ground and others were heavily damaged. Not a single window remained in the area. The Heartless were gone. No more appeared.
"Alright! It worked!" I exclaimed, tossing my Keyblade into the air, spinning on one foot, and catching it.
"That was amazing!" Twilght added. "But how did you know that would work?"
"Well, most Heartless are highly vulnerable to magic. A Sonic Rainboom is already extremely powerful. The two of us both have nearly unsurpassable magical powers, together or alone. Combining those three things would naturally create a destructive force like no other, possibly to the point of eliminating every Heartless around. All in all, the entire thing was based on a single hunch that I had. Didnt you notice that Rainbow Dash almost didnt finish the Sonic Rainboom? That was the most integral part of my plan, so obviously I would have to devote all my focus to it. When I saw that she wasn`t going to make it, I used magic to intervene and speed her up while allowing her to maintain the same coverage of distance. For example, at that point, she was moving around twenty feet every five seconds, but with my magic included, she would still be moving at the same distance in relation to time, but she would have a higher speed in a magic-based sense. She was moving twenty feet every five seconds mathematically, but she was moving about ten feet every second magically."
"Okay, first of all, I don`t mean to be rude, but since when can you explain something that complex with that much in-depth analyzation? Second, you lost me at 'destructive force'. Lastly, I have no idea what you even said."
"Sorry, Sora, you kind of lost me at 'vulnerable'." Rainbow Dash added. I simply rolled my eyes and turned around, changing back into my alicorn form.
"Lets get out of here. Weve got a door to open!"
