Cannons bombarded the Stonehoof army as the gryphon air ships descended onto the burning streets of The Crystal Empire while the allied forces of Equestria rallied together and began pushing the enemy out of the city and all the while Dain Stonehoof king of the caribou watched in disbelief as his men were slaughtered one by one by the princesses and the elements of harmony along with The Iron Wolves and amidst the chaos he spotted the one responsible for the ruin of his campaign.

"You...." He whispered with murderous intent while slowly approaching a single knight who had cut down a great deal of his men.

Valiant Charge; The leader of the iron wolves and the newest bearer to the element of courage stood in a circle of a hundred slain caribou when he heard the blood curdling howl of Dain before narrowly blocking the oncoming blade to his neck, in that one clang the battle came to an instant ceasefire as all eyes turned to the two titans now engaged in single combat.

"It's you and me Stonehoof!" Valiant growled as he managed to push off his opponent.

"At the end of this day, one shall stand-"

"And one shall fall-YOU!! Valiant Charge!"

Both warriors charges head on, roar in like wild beasts before coming to blows. Dain had proven to be no slouch when it came to the sword and was already pushing Valiant back a ways before knocking his sword out of his hands, it seemed like the fight was already over until Valiant retaliated with an uppercut that sent his opponent reeling back with a bloodied lip yet despite the pain the evil King seemed amused as he stared down his nemesis.

"How will you fight me without your precious runefang?"

"I don't need a sword to crush you!" Placing both hands on the ground, Valiant created a magic circle that instantly turned into a ring of fire as Dain found himself trapped.

"ERUPTING VESUVIUS!!"

A pillar of fire shot out of the ground as Dain screamed out in agony but as the smoke cleared all could see he was still standing but most of his armor had been burnt off along with a few patches of fur, his suffering continued when Valiant ambushed him with another uppercut to the chin followed by a straight jab that sent him crashing through a wall. Dain quickly rose to his feet and quickly forced Valiant into a grapple.

"You should join me Valiant! You are after all the son of the great King Sombra!"

"True Dain but I have learned to control the darkness within me. Unlike you!" Valiant was able to break lose from Dains grip before retrieving Blood Bringer while Dain grew more furious as he began to hack against the unicorn like a mad man.

"WHY DO YOU INSIST ON STANDING IN MY WAY?!? Who are you?!?" The caribou roared in pure rage when Valiant caughthis blade with one hand before glaring at him with a look that sent a chill down his spine.

"I am Valiant Charge. Son of Sombra and Radiant Hope! I am a loyal servant of The Four Princesses but above all Dain..." Valiant slammed the evil king with a blow that sent him crashing through the street as his body was covered by a blood red aura that began taking the shape of a large wolf growling in anger.

"I AM THE INVINCIBLE IRON WOLF!!"

Dain soon found himself at the mercy of Valiants rage and was beginning to grow desperate, hundreds of his soldiers rallied to his side only to be cut down by the claws of the wolf formed by Valiants magic and the caribou king soon found himself trembling in fear as he looked into the burning eyes of his enemy.

"No....s-stay back!!!" He cried out while frantically scooting a safe distance before trying to make a run for the city gates.

"FALL BENEATH MY RAGE!!" Summoning every last ounce of his magic, Valiant charged straight towards Dain with enough force to bring down a building. Dain cried out for mercy when he saw the gleam of the sword Blood Bringer coming straight at him before feeling it pierce his chest and in his last moments he saw only Valiants eyes and the fire within them.

"Take this to your grave Stonehoof: So long as this kingdom has its champions it will never fall to the likes of you! NEVER!!"

Dains body began to crack as if it were made of glass when he began to feel a burning sensation within him and before their very eyes the soldiers of both Equestria and the Stonehoof tribe saw the tyrant explode into dust. All was quiet as the intensity of the duel died down when Celestia cried out to her soldiers.

"THE IRON WOLF HAS DEFEATED THE EVIL KING DAIN!! VICTORY IS OURS!"

The remaining caribou soldiers laid down their arms after being completely demoralized while they watched both the banners of The Iron Wolves and Canterlot were raised high into the air.

The war for Equestria had finally ended.

The End.
