EQUESTRIA'S ESPADA

CHAPTER TWO

By: Vladimir

Spike and the others arrive in the center of Ponyville with a flash of light, and sight dizziness from the mortal ponies while Dash, Spike, Luna and Celestia stand tall and just fine from the random burst of magic, proving to the ponies that the two are not to be messed with.

'I see, so this town is safe. Good. It will proof useful to make sure this area is safe due to how many beings with power lay around it.' He looks to the eastern wing of the town, 'Diamond-Dogs to the east just beneath the earth,' he then looks towards the mountain to the west, 'a slumbering Fire Drake to the west, and to the south is the Everfee Forest, while to the north is Canterlot. Curious.' He thinks to himself.

He then evaluates each ponies own "spiritual pressure", and notes that Dash is similar to his own -obviously given what she is- while Twilight holds a similar pressure to Kurosaki Ichigo, as do the princesses. Curious nature indeed.

"The town is safe, for now. The inhabitance are sound asleep from what my pesquisa is informing me. All seems right. Perhaps we should go indoors, however, as high amounts of energy is gathering in those storm clouds." He says with satisfaction evident in his tone. Dash looks at him with a slight hint of sadness, before gaining a firm look before she grabs Spike's shoulder.

"Fight me." She growls out. The others grow shocked while Spike is mildly surprised, and it shows.

"Why?" He asks. Dash growls.

"I need to prove myself!" She roars out. Spike see's something flash in her magenta eyes, before sighing and nodding his head in acceptance. Dash goes to unsheathe her changed Zanpakuto, but is stopped by Spike.

"Not hear. Besides, our presence alone would kill everyone in the town in a matter of minutes. We must go somewhere...higher." He says as he floats into the air, with Dash going after him, her wings folded up against her back. Celestia conjures platforms and they follow after the two, but keep their distance just incase.

The two stand on the air hundreds of feet above the town, as well as Equestria herself, and stare each other down. The storm clouds roll in, and the ponies note that the thunder and lightning gives a very well made setting for the two and their little "battle" that is just about to begin.

If only they knew.

The two stare each other down, and Dash draws her sword, swinging it and then holding it at her side, her eyes hard and a flicker of blue shines from each lightning strike. Thunder booms and rolls louder through the sky, louder than anyone had ever heard. She gets into a stance, and the two dash forward right as a massive thunder clap shakes the air. Rain pours down like needles, and make loud "panging" sounds on the roofs of the houses down below.

Dash swings her Zanpakuto downward, while Spike swings his hand upwards, the two items clanging and the sparks fly. The two move around like living blurs as shockwaves boom alongside the thunder claps while the lightning flashes their shadows across Ponyville, making an eerie lightshow for the inhabitance down below who were awoken from the monstrous storm.

To the untrained eye, the two would be seen as blurs, but to Twilight, Celestia, and Luna, they watch the true fight happening at high speeds, making them stare in awe as the two combatants clash with expertise.

Spike kicks Dash across an invisible ground making "dust" kick up, before she flickers behind him, stabbing at him. He spin-kicks Dash to the side once more. She growls before stabbing her Zanpakuto into the "ground", making her stop. She grins at Spike as she cuts her pointer figure, drawing blood. The sight makes the onlookers gasp, and then gasp once again when a large blue sphere forms in the palm of her hand.

She holds it out towards Spike, who stares with wide eyes, stunned from the reckless move.

Gran Rey CERO!! She roars out as a massive beam of blue energy the size of a Canterlot Castle spire tripled roars at Spike. His eyes narrow and he holds out his left hand, stopping the attack. But soon he is pushed back, forcing him to use both hands, but it proves to be of little use as the beam them seems to move forward, encompassing his form, as the attack keeps flying forward line an endless tunnel.

Dash smirks, but her eyes soon widen, as does the others and the ponies down below, as the beam is split in half, and then dissipates. The see Spike standing there with his new Zanpakuto drawn (AN: it looks just like Ulquiorra's old one, but with a purple and green tint to it) out and pointing upwards, not a single scratch on his form can be seen. He gives Dash a cold stare before amusement flashes in those emerald-purple eyes of his.

A blush forms on Dash's cheeks, and she feels her heart flutter for whatever reason, but soon her eyes widen and fear grips her chest as she barely blocks Spike's sword with her own, sending a massive shockwave that somehow causes the storm to roar and grow larger than before.

Dash is forced to use both hands in hopes that she can even push him back, let alone block his brute strength. The two push away from each other, making the sky shake. When they land, then things start to heat up as Dash gains a feral grin on her face flashing her new canines to the ponies who stand in shock.

The two then begin their "dance" as they begin stomping before flashing around faster than anyone thought could be possible.

They clash and clang against each other as they send shockwaves through the air, clouds boom and lightning flashes more frequently as they battle. Soon, however, Dash grows annoyed, and jumps away from Spike's axe drop kick, and her Zanpakuto blade glows bright blue, and the air becomes heavy.

She rakes her nails across the blade, a wide feral grin on her face as blue flames form.

Kishire! PANTERA!! She cries out, and then the winds pick up with such immense speed, that it takes all of Luna's and Celestia's magic to keep everyone safe, let alone themselves, as they watch as Dash is covered in white armor, her rainbow tail now a thin cat like tail that is as long as herself. Her hands are black claws while her feet are black paws, her mane three times as long and bright sky blue, while there are blades on her forearms and legs.

She roars sending massive shockwaves that cuts clouds apart, before they reform from the large amount of spiritual energy being produced.

She laughs like a mad-woman before pushing herself off the "ground" and appears above Spike, who looks taken aback as her once blue wings are now covered in white armor along with large blue Cero wings sprouting from those pair. She punches Spike in he face sending him flying down into the Everfree Forest, making a tower of dirt rise into the earth the size of a castle spire. She watches like a cat waiting for it's prey to move so it can then pounce said prey.

She watches, waiting for the right moment to strike, until her eyes widen as Spike's Zanpakuto stabs upwards just before her face, and she jumps back away from him with a cut on her left cheek. She growls as Spike stands there with a bored look on his face, though his eyes shine with excitement that sends strange shivers up her spine. She grins down at him and flies down at him with her claws glowing bright blue.

DESGARRON!!!

She swings her claws downward making her arms make an "X" shape as ten large glowing claws roar down making the air scream. Spike swings his Zanpakuto to the side, and holds it in front of him, and blocks the attack. He starts to be pushed back making two line going through the ground. He gains a small smile before he swings his Zanpakuto upward, destroying the claws and creating a taller of fire, smoke and dirt that is twice the side of Canterlot Castle itself.

Dash watches as Spike flies up at her, his sleeves are gone, his left pant leg is burnt away in nothingness. She feels heat start to rise from her nether region, but quickly clears her head of lewd thoughts. For now.

Spike slashes at Dash who kicks, the two blades collide and the clouds ripple as spiritual pressure starts to rise. The ponies stare in awe as Spike points his left pointer finger a Dash's belly, forming a green/purple cero. Her eyes widen in surprise.

Cero He says, and then a large beam of green light encompasses Dash's body, but the Cero is cut into ten by Dash's claws. They see she has nary a scratch on her, and they see excitement flash through Spikes eyes.

"Very well." Spike says before he flies upwards into the clouds. Dash immediately follows, while Celestia, Luna, and Twilight conjure a large screen to watch the fight. The ponies down in Ponyville also look towards the massive screen in the sky.

Dash chases after Spike who just keeps climbing higher and higher, his wings flap once, and he is many more miles away from him with three ring following his "jet trails" while she stares with wide eyes.

'Is he really this fast? But he's only at base form, if this is his speed now.... Shit! Looks like I need to work harder to become the ki- Queen! Haha! I am the QUEEN!!! NO ONE CAN BEAT ME!!!!!' She inwardly roars in laughter unaware that a certain screen allows many other to listen to her thoughts. She chases after Spike moving faster and faster, pumping her wings propelling herself and making her own pair of rings behind herself miles down.

They both move above the storm clouds and in the partial dawn light. She looks around for Spike, but soon she finds him standing before the mountains of the east where his wings are spread out wide, his thin scaly tail circling around his form. A blush forms on her face as rays of light jet out from behind him, even so far as giving him a halo above his "horn" giving him a "fallen angel" look.

'He's....gorgeous!!' Dash thinks to himself as his hair is no longer black but a stunning light purple like his old scales were, his wings are now purple and green while his tail his still purple with a green underbelly to it. She stares and stares before something comes to mind. 'MINE!!!' Her mind roars, but shock then sets in. 'W-What am I saying!? I...Do I really...? Is he my mate?!' She wonders to herself.

"Prepare yourself, Dash," she shudders with pleasure moving up and down her body from his nickname for her even if others call her that, "for I am through holding back this attack." He states as he points his left pointer finger and lays it onto the back of his Zanpakuto's guard, a small trickle of blood dripping onto the blade. Two large violet sphere form, on at his finger, the other over the entire Zanpakuto blade.

His cold green and purple eyes glinting in the violet light with a hint of sadness to them. Three simple words are uttered that makes Dash freeze in shock, her eyes to widen in fear and her heart to clench with despair.

Gran Rey Cero

The two balls fuse into one massive one that then becomes a beam ten times the size of Canterlot Castle's largest spire and towers. Dash drops to her knees at the sheer power the attack emits let alone the size of it. 'How could he be the Quatra Espada?! Not even Stark the Primera could do this!!' Her mind races. But then calms down. She grins widely before spreading her wings out and the Cero Wings glow and grow before she slaps her wings, sending out two Gran Rey Cero's that fuse together, making it the same size as Spike's own.

Spike see's this, and he gives a real smile that she notices, and smirks back at him. Her mind is made up. She wants Him.

The ponies stare in awe as the two beams the size of Canterlot Castle itself if not larger let alone that the power it is emitting is causing the clouds to rage and the thunder to boom like a dragon's furious roar. Lightning strikes the ground in long lines and move like tornados as the clouds themselves looks like pitch black smoke.

Celestia, Luna, Twilight, and Rarity use their magical reserves as to make sure no one is injured, let alone themselves.

The two beams crash into one another, and a massive explosion rockets through the sky, destroying the storm clouds. The ponies cover their eyes quickly as to make sure they don't get damaged from splintering trees, dirt, dust, even sharp needle like shards of rain.

When Celestia, Luna and the others look back at the screen, they gasp.

Standing before the rising sun, is Dash kissing Spike.

Dash, during the explosion, flies up to Spike and kisses him deeply with much fever and passion, as she presses her body up against his. She moans happily and softly when he kisses her back just as deeply and with just as much passion. Their mask pieces/fragments glow softly in either green/purple or rainbow colored before they change. Dash's piece is now a choker with her element edged into it, while Spike's is similar to Dash's choker, but it is also more like a collar. Around his wrists are two seals wrapping around them looking like scale pieces that started to break off and then stop.

The two of them separate, and gaze into each others eyes as their seals/element and mask fragments glow brightly in the light of the rising sun.

The ponies down below gaze in awe as the two look like angels that had descended down to the world from heaven. The storm clouds long since gone, and the sky lit up in bright red and orange colors, while their shadows seemingly stand, looking over all giving the ponies a sense of peace.

Dash looks down at the ponies below fully aware that they are looking up at her and her mate. Spike grabs hold of her hand and gives her a smirk. Dash smirks back before they both jump back away from each other and summon their Cero's as they charge them, Dash's looking like a blue spiraling ball as the wind screams around it, while Spike's resembles black, purple and green flames spiraling around a purple ball similar to Dash's own.

The two dash forward, their wings flapping as their tails swishing around while their hairs blow in the wind. They move their arms past each other, and fire off their Cero's as they roar across the sky, making a rainbow colored one fly from Dash's, while Spike's was a darker version of hers. The attacks then dissipate, making grey clouds form, and rain to fall.

The rain drizzles onto Ponyville, the ponies down below enjoy the cold soft rain that pours down onto the Apple Orchards, from the magic soil, more trees begin to grow, as well as the other crops.

The two float down to Celestia and the others, and stand before the group. Dash had returned to normal, while Spike reigned in his power as to not cause harm. Luna stares at Spike with soft and appraising eyes. Dash see's a hint of longing to them, and gives the other mare a smile as she knows that look. She nods to Luna, who gives her a happy smile, but grows surprised when Dash pushes Spike. Spike stumbles forward unsure how he managed to lose his balance, but soon his eyes grow wide and a shiver goes over his form as he feels his lips crash onto Princess Luna's own. The same feeling that he shared with Dash only minutes ago.

'So I have two mates. Curious. One being the Ex- Sexta Espada, and the other being the Goddess of the moon and the younger Princess of Equestria. This will be, as Dash would say, "fun".' Spike thinks to himself, before letting himself go and leans into the kiss with his lunar princess and goddess who is doing the same.

Celestia gives a non-royal-like squeal of happiness and hugs her "son" and sister in a bone/Hierro crushing hug. "It's sooooo good to see this! It's been so long since my little sister has been courted, let alone by one I consider my "son"! Such a wonderful occasion!" She squeals out. Dash makes an odd face.

"Your 'son'? But, isn't that kind of, wrong?" She asks. Celestia giggles and shakes her head while speaking motherly.

"Oh no! Not at all! Alicorn's abide by different rules of nature. You see, if Spike were to be of my flesh and blood, his instincts would sends messages to him to stay close to me, as Alicorn's age much! Much! slower than other races until we each a certain point in our time where we just stop aging, we can be killed. Yes. But that has been proved to be much harder than slaying a Dragon, no offence Spike." She says to Spike, who shrugs.

"I'm technically not much of a dragon anymore, as I have gained my hollow traits and form mixed with my old/new one." Spike says with a low shrug. Celestia nods.

"Right, anyways, Alicorn's take many hundreds of years to reach to our matured forms, which is where we stop aging." She states firmly, yet motherly all at the same time. Dash nods her head, but then tilts it to the side.

"And if Luna and him were to rut, it simply be okay with you, as he is not exactly your son, just seen as one, as he most likely see's you as his "mother"?" She asks. Celestia nods.

"Yes, that's exactly it, though I would have judged his decision if he simply went to some random mare and grew slightly fond of them, instead of finding his mate(s). Though it looks as if he has found at least two of what I can sense of." She states with a shrug. Dash nods her head, and gains a smirk.

"So, when do we get to go to the palace and fuck~?" She asks unashamedly. Celestia giggles from the other mares blushes and Spike's calm demeanor. Apparently he had no problem with Dash's new vocabulary.

"Quite soon, id imagine, as you two would need to be claimed by your dominant, unless you two are his dominant, which would then mean you'd need to claim him. Though I can see clearly that he is the dominant, as his power clearly over shadowed your own, Ms. Dash~." Celestia says with a sing song tone. Twilight stares at her mentor in shock, never had Princess Celestia ever, Ever! Spoken like that to anyone!

'This MUST be recorded!' Twilight thinks to herself as she scribbles all this down.

"Now then, let us head to the castle, Spi- Ulquiorra and I have some...things to talk about." Celestia says with a deadly serious tone with a smile, making them all, aside from Spike himself, shudder in fear. The group then vanishes with a thunderous clap of magical power, and then, silence.
