A Brutal Fight: A Vampony versus a Princess

It had a been a rough, terrifying and emotionally painful night as Luna had lost not only two of her close friends, but also the vampony that she believed she could free to Twilight Sparkle. She now found herself in a real dicey situation as Twilight Sparkle, after feeding on Fluttershy, had grown to be the same size as her and likely gained more power than she already had.

Luna wanted to try and get this done as quickly as possible so she lit up her horn and fired a bolt of energy at Twilight, striking her directly. Much to Luna's dismay, the bolt only knocked Twilight backwards a little bit. Twilight looked in Luna's direction and hissed, "You failed Luna! You failed your sister, you failed everypony that has been killed and now you shall fail all of Equestria!"

Luna was in shock. She did not imagine that by Twilight feeding on another vampony that she would gain the ability to speak. She sternly replied, "You may have claimed the lives of many of your fellow ponies but that stops tonight Twilight Sparkle."

Twilight's eyes began to shine a dark pink and she fired a powerful bolt of energy at Luna, knocking her to the ground. Twilight took flight and landed next to Luna. She hissed, "Oh and how are you going to stop me? I'm more powerful than you!" Her hiss became more of a laugh as she continued, "And you know the old saying, you can't do anything to a pony more powerful than you."

As badly as Luna wanted to launch a full out assault on Twilight, she knew she had to be careful that she did not get bit. She lit up her horn and began to size up her enemy, looking for any weakness that she might have. Twilight noticed that and was not amused. Rather than using magic to counter Luna's readiness to strike, she decided to launch herself at her instead. She charged directly at Luna and knocked her to the ground.

Luna looked up nervously to see Twilight standing over her, bearing her fangs. Luna was quick to get up and counter, knocking Twilight to the ground. She stood over Twilight and again in a stern voice replied, "Give it up Twilight. I'm putting an end to your reign of terror tonight."

Twilight began to mock her hissing back everything she said. She bore her fangs and charged straight towards Luna but she would be quick and muster every ounce of energy she had in her. She grabbed the powerful vampony in her aura and began to stare her down. While Luna's intention was to kill Twilight, she decided that maybe she could stare her down and remove the vampony from her instead.

Luna approached the vampony and despite being held in her aura, Twilight was thrashing about and was keeping her eyes closed. She could sense what Luna was trying to do and was not about to let her do it. Twilight was strong enough that eventually she was able to shatter Luna's aura and grabbed her in her own. She was flying in front of Luna laughing, hissing and bearing her fangs. While one part of Twilight wanted to just end it right there, another part of her wanted to cause Luna a great amount of physical pain.

Holding Luna in her aura, Twilight slammed Luna into the side of her castle, fracturing a couple bones in her wing. Luna let out a scream of agony and Twilight hissed, "Ha, you see, you can't stop me!" She got up in Luna's face and continued, "Just leave me alone, go back to Canterlot, let me feed on who I want and I might let you live!"

This was unacceptable in Luna's eyes. She dug deep and shattered Twilight's aura. She lowered her horn and fired a much more powerful bolt of energy at Twilight, knocking her flying. Twilight would be quick to recover though. She decided that the time to finish this had arrived. She took to the sky, looked down at her enemy and bore her fangs.

*HISS!*

She dove down towards Luna but she would be quick to react. She jumped out of the way causing Twilight to slam into the side of her castle face first. Luna couldn't help but snicker over Twilight's mistake but her laughter would not last long as Twilight recovered quickly and once again went after her. She pounced on her and readied herself to feed. Before she would sink her fangs into her victim she laughed, "Who would have imagined that the sole ruler of Equestria would be a vampony?" She licked her chops and continued, "And you, your royal lowness, will just be the start. After tonight, I'll feed on who I want, where I want, when I want!"

Luna decided she would turn the tables on the vampony. While she couldn't do any real damage, she reared her head forward and bit Twilight, causing her to lose her grip on Luna. Luna again grabbed her in her aura and slammed her into the side of her castle, getting a bit of revenge as Twilight's left wing suffered a few fractures. She let out a hiss of agony but a few fractured bones would not stop the vampony from going after what she wanted.

The two lit up their horns and began to fire at one another. Both were scoring hits on one another and putting enough energy into their magic that not only were they knocking each other backwards, they were leaving burn marks on one another. While everypony in town knew what had been going on and knew they should stay inside, the screams coming from the two had ponies stepping outside to watch the battle.

As their fight continued and they continued to slam one another into the ground and up against Twilight's castle, both began to get open wounds. While the stinging pain was bothering Luna a bit, it actually felt good to Twilight. After what seemed to be forever to both Luna and Twilight, they decided the time had come to stop fighting and finish this.

Twilight and Luna both took to the sky and lit up their horns, ready to grab the other in their aura and slam them to the ground. Luna fired first and had Twilight in her hold. She could see Twilight trying to break her aura so she slammed her head first into the side of her castle, causing her horn to be broken off at the base and causing her to become disoriented.

Luna let go of her and the stunned vampony plunged down to the ground. Luna landed next to her and saw her horn. She grabbed her horn, gave Twilight a scowl and plunged her horn straight into her heart. She continued to ram it into her yet to her dismay, Twilight would not die. Twilight continued to hiss and struggle until she was finally able to fire a bolt of energy to knock Luna backwards.

What Luna saw would horrify her, despite it being broken off, Twilight's horn had grown back. Not only had it grown back but it was bigger and longer than before. Twilight laughed, "You fool, you stupid fool!" Her laughter changed to a hissing sneer, "I would have thought you would know that trying to kill an Alicorn vampony with it's horn would only make it stronger."

Luna was shocked over learning this. She seriously began to question whether she would be able to do this or not. Then it hit her, she would have to impale Twilight with her horn and fire energy into her to kill her. Despite having fractured bones in one of her wings, Luna took to the sky as well as she could and said, "Don't count your chickens before they hatch Twilight. This isn't over yet."

Twilight took what she said as a challenge and despite having a fractured wing herself, she also took to the sky as well as she could. The two were again firing bolts of energy at one another but missing. Luna decided that a distraction was needed, a distraction that would allow her a direct path to take down her enemy.

She fired a bolt of energy at Twilight with just the right strength, not too weak that it wouldn't affect her and not one that would knock her from the sky. Once she fired the energy, she followed the bolt to where it struck Twilight. It caused Twilight to be stretched out vertically, giving Luna a direct path to her target. She charged forwards and before Twilight could recover, she rammed her horn straight into Twilight's heart.

The vampony began hissing in agony and struggling to get the horn out of her but Luna would make sure that didn't happen. Her eyes began to shine white and she fired the most powerful bolt of energy she had ever fired in her life straight into Twilight, blowing her to bits. Twilight would not be the only one harmed by this though. The power Luna put into this caused her to go flying and slam right into the side of Twilight's castle and plummet to the ground. One the way down she was screaming in agony as many of her bones had been broken but once she hit the ground, all that filled the air in Ponyville was silence, a deafening silence.

When everypony saw what happened, they rushed to the castle to find Twilight's body scattered all over the place and found Luna laying on the ground motionless. One pony bent down and felt for a pulse and found one. She yelled, "She's still alive, we need to get her to the hospital!"

Very quickly several unicorns arrived and began to levitate Luna to the hospital. Given the nature of her injuries, everypony knew that she would likely be have to be transferred to a larger hospital but figured that at least getting her some care there would be a start.
