Mahou-Shoujo Sunsetta II: The Tome of Time

"Diamond Tiara!" Sunset gasped. "But how? You're, like, nine years old!"

"And my father is the richest businessman in the world," replied Tiara. "Your point?"

"This is my point," said Maud, forming a sharpened stalactite (or maybe it was a stalagmite) around her fist and ramming it into the ground. "You're outmatched. Go home, Tiara."

"As if," replied Tiara. "Minions, beat them up and stuff!"

Diamond Tiara's minions leapt forwards, prepared to beat them up and stuff.

Maud Pie smiled for the firs ttime in exactly nine year,s two months, and twelve days.

"Come at me, bro."

Now, nopony likes fighting in a tiny, cramped room, right? You spend more time bouncing off the walls than landing hits. Maud knew this, and so took the logical course of action.

She punched her way out through the roof.

The sudden lack of air pressure sucked everyone else out, too.

"MAUD!" screamed Sunset. "What were you thinking?! We're all gonna dieeeeee!"

"There's an air field," said Maud. "We've got five minutes out here before the oxygen dilutes entirely. Which, luckily, is four more than I need."

"Oh, hooray for you," spat Diamond. "Ever played rock-paper-scissors? Then you'll know gun beats rock." She drew her machine gun and released a hail of bullets at Maud.

Maud effortlessly drew a wall of stone in front of herself, blocking the attack. Before Tiara could respond, she used the low gravity to catapult herself up over the wall, releasing a rain of stalactites as she went. Soon, only Tiara was left standing.

"You and me," said Maud. "Soon to be just me."

"I could say the same thing," said Tiara.

"Could you two get on with it before we all DIE?" asked Sunset.

Maud shrugged. "Your move."

In response, Tiara took a step back and unloaded the entiret of the gun into Maud, shredding her sweater in every place except, conveniently, her upper chest, because for some reason bullets almost never seem to land there.

Maud fell over backwards.

"HA!" shouted Tiara. "I win! Bow to me, pathetic--"

She was interrupted as a thick dowel of solid concrete punched her twenty feet into the air, which would have been much more impressive without moon gravity.

"Two minutes before air runs out," said Maud. "Let's see how long until your breath does." She leapt into the air (aided by the moon gravity) and roundhouse-kicked Diamond Tiara out of the moon's gravitational field and into space.

"I will be back!" shouted Tiara. "Aw, buck, that sounded so cliche..."

"Maud, that was incredible!" said Trixie. "Almost as incredible as the Great and--"

"No time for that," said Maud. "We need to get to the ship before we run out of air."

"Right," said Sunset. "Let me help with that." She grabbed the other Mahou Girls and leapt off the roof of the moon base, heading towards the Insert Name Here, which had not been damaged by the debris raining down when Maud punched a hole in the roof, or when she shot stalactites at Tiara.

"Glad that's over," said Sunset. "But we didn't get the Tome of Time."

"Yes, we did," said Trixie. "Trixie grabbed it while you were all watching Maud shoot rocks at stuff."

And, with that convenient deus ex machina, they were off to their next destination.

On the dark side of the moon, just out of the Insert Name Here's line of sight, a massive shape silently began its pursuit.

I know, I know, action isn't my strong suit, but I was kind of stuck at this part. for a long, long time. Better to just get it out of the way and continue the story.
