After discussing their plans on how they would handle Fluttershy and Twilight, Luna, Pinkie and Applejack headed outside and went over by Twilight's castle, hoping that one, if not both of them would be present. After an hour of waiting, they had yet to see anything and this was very frustrating for them. Applejack asked, "Y'all don't think they know something is up and are avoiding us do you?"

Luna replied, "They could be. According to the legends, vamponies can sense when they are being pursued and will stay away if they sense it."

Pinkie asked, "Even Alicorn vamponies?"

Luna sighed, "The books in the library mention nothing of......" They saw a shadow pass overhead causing Luna to continue, "What was that?"

Applejack replied, "I think it was either Fluttershy or Twilight."

Luna said, "Well let's get ready then. Luna lit her horn up in the event she needed to cast a protection spell around herself for fire at one of them."

They saw the shadow overhead and saw Twilight. She bore her fangs and let out a hiss. She lit up her horn and fired at Luna, scoring a hit. The energy knocked Luna backwards but she would be quick to recover. She cast a protection spell around herself so Twilight decided she would go after Pinkie first.

She bolted towards Pinkie, pounced on her and immediately sank her fangs into her neck. Pinkie was screaming in agony but Applejack was not about to allow her friend to die. She jumped on Twilight and managed to rip her off of her. This infuriated Twilight. Her eyes began to shine a dark pink and she fired a bolt of energy at Applejack but all it did was knock her backwards. Twilight pounced on her, put a protection bubble around them and began to feed.

Despite Twilight beginning to drain her of her blood, Applejack was able to kick Twilight off of her but given that they were in a protection bubble, there would not be much room for her to maneuver. One thing that did help Applejack though was that since Twilight cast the protection bubble, she could not fire bolts of energy at her so this fight became purely physical.

At first, despite not being at full strength, Applejack was getting the best of Twilight. She was kicking her and easily avoiding any further bites. Eventually though Twilight would pounce on Applejack and as her friends watched in horror, Twilight would again begin to feed. This caused Luna to charge forward, ram her horn into the bubble and fire a bolt of energy to break it like she did when Twilight was feeding on Celestia and like with last time, while it did shatter the bubble, it also sent her, Twilight and Applejack flying.

Luna was the first to get up and rushed over to check on Applejack but it was too late as the loss of blood and injuries from hitting the ground so hard caused her to pass. Twilight soon got up and saw that all she had left was Luna and Pinkie. Luna saw her flying in and began to fire energy at her but missed each time. Twilight again cast a protection bubble spell and landed right over a much weaker Pinkie and began to feed again. She knew that she had better hurry and finish her off as Luna would again ram her horn into that bubble and break it.

Twilight saw Luna coming out of the corner of her eye and intensified the power of her spell but again Luna would be able to break it. The explosion of the bubble breaking sent them flying but Luna was able to get her bearings straight before hitting the ground and flew towards Twilight. Her eyes were shining white as she yelled, "You have killed many Twilight but you will not kill Pinkie!"

*HISS*

Twilight hissed and decided that since Pinkie likely would not last much longer, she would take to the sky and went after Luna. Once they met, rather than casting protection bubbles around one another, they began a physical fight. This would be difficult for Luna as she did not want to be bit but her adrenaline was flowing and she was the first to strike as she kicked Twilight out of the sky.

Luna swooped down and kicked Twilight in the head, causing her to lay there a bit woozy. Luna landed in front of Twilight and sternly said, "Your tyranny is over Twilight Sparkle. You have caused much suffering but tonight I shall put an end to that."

She grabbed Twilight in her aura and slammed her against the base of her castle. While Luna was getting the best of Twilight, another shadow flew by and a figure landed over by Pinkie. The figure began to sniff her seeing if there was still life in her.

When Pinkie looked up she saw it was Fluttershy. She pleaded, "Please Fluttershy, please don't kill me." She pointed her hoof over towards Twilight and continued, "It is Twilight, she is the one who is responsible for all of this."

Fluttershy paid no attention to her though as she had yet to feed and was hungry. She bore her fangs and sank them into Pinkie, draining what little blood remained in her. This would not go unnoticed though. Despite not having her bearings straight, Twilight saw this and took off skywards as she was not happy that somepony else would steal her meal.

She bore her fangs, hissed and sped town to take care of the pony who was feeding on her prey. Fluttershy could sense this though and she took off right before Twilight could pounce on her, causing Twilight to smash head first into Pinkie. She began sniffing her prey and would not be pleased when she detected no life coming from her. She bore her fangs and took off skyward, determined to take out the vampony who dared to finish her meal.

Luna watched in shock as the two vamponies began to fight in the sky as she did not think that one vampony would attack another. While she wanted to save Fluttershy and restore her to normal, she knew that both would have to be knocked out of the sky so she shot energy at them. Much to her dismay, both were very agile and she could not score a hit.

Both vamponies were hissing furiously at one another as their fight continued. Fluttershy knew that without magic she would have to get Twilight on the ground so she charged at her head first. She struck Twilight with so much force that she knocked her out of the sky. As soon as she saw Twilight hit the ground, Fluttershy swooped downwards but before she could land, she would be kicked to the ground by Twilight.

Twilight quickly got up and landed by a stunned Fluttershy and she immediately put a protection bubble around the two. She pinned Fluttershy down, bore her fangs and let out a loud hiss. She began to slowly lower her head down as she wanted to see the vampony who stole her meal cringe in fear. Just as her fangs were mere inches away from Fluttershy's neck, Fluttershy was able to wrestle out of her hold. She grabbed Twilight by the head and slammed it into the ground, causing her protection bubble to disappear.

Twilight was struggling but Fluttershy had mustered up every ounce of energy she had to hold her down. As Fluttershy began to lower her head to feed, Twilight lit up her horn and blasted Fluttershy off of her. Twilight sped over to where Fluttershy was laying and decided that rather than slowly lower her head that she would be quick about this so she slammed her head down and began to feed. Fluttershy was hissing in agony and was struggling to get loose. This would prove to be futile though as once Twilight began to feed, she began to grow in size and her rate of feeding increased.

When Luna saw this she said to herself, "Apparently when a vampony feeds on another vampony, it causes it to grow in size." She then saw Twilight stand up and realized that she had grown to be the same size as her. She figured that her already stronger magical powers had likely became even stronger. She continued, "How am I going to do this? Can I even do this?" She stood there analyzing her foe and realized that disabling her magic would be the only option.
