The legend of spyro: world's crossing

Night has fallen over Equestria, Canterlot is on full alert, having no word back from the squad in Ponyville or Apple Loosa means that the young dragons took them out or so that is what Shadow believes but in fact he's about to face an old friend from the past. Beyond the Crystal Mountains was the Crystal Empire and everybody was ready for what they hope to be the final fight, Luna has suited every pony with her lunar republic armor and Discord enhanced it to be more durable in combat and against magic. The young dragons also wore armor snapped on by Discord, restricting none of their movements nor did they loose flexibility and flight, but Allan is the only one who isn't wearing any armor saying he has grown accustom to fighting without armor. Summoning her magic Luna teleported everyone into her training grounds.

"AAAHHHH!" Some pony shouted.

"Sshhh commander Evening it me Luna." The alicorn whispered, covering the mares mouth.

"Princess? What's going on why are you here?"

"A dragon has taken over Canterlot and tonight we aim to take it back and send him to Tartarus. But we can use you and your troops help."

"But your highness they've only had three weeks worth of training."

"And if they survive and do well they will join your elite team. But for now they stay close to you."

The mare saluted Luna and then followed the group up to the main training ground, opening a secret door that was in the mares locker room, everyone looked at Luna. "Ohh please I put one in the stallions locker as well, I'm not that bad." She said getting a few chuckles from the group. Drawing out his dagger, Allan grabbed the changeling from behind and sliced its neck, slowly putting it down, pointing at Cynder, she nodded and vanished to the shadows taking out three quickly and quietly. Luna turned to mist and also took out three without them uttering a word, Zephyr took two out side by side with his mounted claws. Creeping from behind Spyro place a paw inches away and electrocuted the changeling's heart frying it before it could shout, then he froze another one. The girls could only watch knowing that they could only alert the others if they failed their first attempted at a silent kill, then sneaking by them was Evening and she got behind one put her hooves around one's head and snapped its neck then did it again to two more. Having almost all the changeling's dead, one looked back and before he could shout an arrow was shot into the back of his throat getting Cynder, Luna and Spyro to quickly kill the rest. Turning back Spyro motioned his paw to the rest saying come on, coming out of the mares locker room they walked over to the main entrance and split up Luna the ponies to the left, Allan and the dragons to the right.

To the left Luna, Zephyr, Evening and Shining were up front, having the combat experience they need to quietly make it outside, Cadence and the elements were behind them, the rookies at the back. Evening held up a hoof and listened, "a patrol is near, Captain Armor put a shield around them then they can scream." Nodding Shining waited until he saw the patrol and they walked right into the shield, walking up to the patrol Cadence turned them to crystals then with a tap they crumbled to dust, using her magic she hid them behind a flower pot. Moving on down the hall it was the same procedure, Shining would create a shield around a patrol and someone would take care of the rest, when Discord had his turn he turned them into Venus fly trap plants then placed them up with the other plants, getting the others to chuckle at the irony. Continuing down the hall they all stopped as Evening's ears perked up then her eyes widen, the sound of claws were clicking against the floor, big ones. Taking to the air Twilight levitating her grounded friends, they watched quietly as Shadow walked right under them, their eyes widen at the size of the dragon, 60 feet plus long, scars where Luna struck him and surprisingly no changeling patrol around him but there was no way they would attack him. Luna saw that he was heading for the throne room, the same place their companions where headed, reaching for her crystal that Allan gave her, Cadence and Twilight before the mission she spoked softly into it.

"Allan its Luna we have a visual on Shadow and he's heading your way, you have six minutes at best to reach there before he does."

"Copy that Luna thanks for the notice." Allan put away his crystal and looked at the two dragons. "The target is coming we got six minutes to get there before him."

"Leave this to me then boys." Cynder said with a grin. Fazing into her shadow form, she snaked away and the boys watched as she would yank a changeling from his position, reappear before another on and incinerate him with her fire breath, then move to the next one and sink her claws in it, over dosing it with her poison. The next one got a face full of shadow fire and the one next to him had shadow claws pierce through him, and with their long range sent another one unexpectedly into the air, where Cynder grabbed him by the throat and did several somersaults and threw him to the ground before he meet a fiery end. As the last two stood by the throne room doors, Cynder appeared before them and sank her large shadow claws into them, killing them before they even had a chance to scream.

"You got one scary girl, you know that right?" Allan asked Spyro.

"I do know." He said unsure of what to think of after seeing that.

The two hurried to catch up to Cynder and lay an ambush for Shadow for his return.

Down below in the dungeons, Discord had turned all the guards to stone, and saw that the royal guards looked like walking skeletons, only having water and bread on the floor by them. "Oh boy." Was all Discord could say as he looked at the guards turning around he saw Celestia, a little better then her men but she still was too skinny to be in healthy conditions.

"Tia can you hear me?"

Looking up with hazy eyes she lit up at who she saw. "Discord is that you? I couldn't be happier to see a friend. Where's Luna what's going on." Just then a loud boom shook the place.

"Looks like the fun as begun. Ok here's what's going to happen I'll recover your lost muscles and then all of you will be needed outside helping Princess Luna and the others hold off the changeling army while Allan, Spyro and Cynder take care of Shadow. Twilight and her friends have the elements of harmony in case things so wrong, got the plan? Good now let's get you out there helping." With a snap of his fingers and a clap the doors vanished and they all became what they looked like before being starved to death. "Tally-hooo!" Discord shouted and led the charge of prisoner guards to the battle but Celestia made a right turn instead of going with her men.

Outside in the palace garden was chaos as magic beams were fired back and forth, the ground was covered with fighting ponies all trying to get the upper hand of the battle. Luna was in the sky, holding nothing back as she defended her kingdom. "High ho silver!" Came Discords voice and as he started snapping his fingers the royal guard army came forth and joined the fight but she saw that her sister wasn't among them.

"Where is Tia?"

"Why she's....oohhh" Discord said as he saw no sign of the ruler of Equestrian. The a loud boom came from the palace. "Not good."

Shadow's tail came crashing down but Allan did a back handspring to avoid the attack and as Shadow had his attention on Allan, Spyro fired a fireball at Shadow and it struck his face, glaring at the purple dragon and launched at him, jaws open. Spyro flew higher and Shadow's jaws clamped shut on air, he then roared in pain as Cynder slashed his shoulder. Swiping his paw and missed the dragoness as she fazed into shadow then unleashed a poison breath, but was over powered by Shadow's dark fire breath, knocking her out of the air. Spyro caught his mate and as Shadow was charging up a dark fireball and that left him open for Allan as his left hand glowed a light green then tossed a magic sphere and it struck Shadow in the side of his head. Getting back into the air Spyro and Cynder unleashed aether and convexity but their attack was countered by Shadow's own magic laced shadow fire breath, knowing they were being over powered they slowly backed off until they saw Allan take to the air and drove his sword into Shadow's mid back. Roaring in pain he lost his breath and the two beams collided with his chest, removing his sword Allan got off him just before he slammed into a wall.

Down the hall Celestia could hear the battle in the throne room as she drew closer to it.

Outside thing were going the allied ways as they started to see a decrease in enemy numbers, though they too have lost some warriors but with Luna leading the army they continued to push forward. Though the enemies though their weakest link was Fluttershy, those who got too close came face to face with her stare causing them to freeze up, as if they were paralyzed then taken out by anyone close by.

"Luna a second wave is coming from Griffin stone!" Rainbow Dash shouted.

"Cadence you and Discord go take care of them, take as many troops as you need, we are almost done here." Luna ordered and the Princess of love and the draconeguus took off with a number of pegasus guards, even Rainbow Dash was going with them. Seeing the vast number of red heading their way Cadence looked at Rainbow and nodded, smiling the cyan colored pegasus zip by flying upward gaining speed before she dove back down breaking the sound barrier and created the legendary sonic rainboom. The blast from the rainboom was so powerful that Cadence had to shield her men and watch as many red changelings fell from the sky and into the Celestial Sea where sea serpents ate their fill, though more were still coming for the royal army, Rainbow dashed through the red army knocking more out of the sky before looping over them and returning to her post beside Cadence.

Luna felt the blast from where she was and so did the enemies and that gave her and Twilight the opportunity and unleashed powerful beams of magic upon the crimson army. Some shield themselves while others perished and those that shielded themselves could only watched their comrades die. When the bombardment was done the changelings opened fire and aimed for the two strongest until a magic shield reflected their attacks at them, forgetting that Shining Armor was famous for his strong shield and scrambled so that they wouldn't get hit by their own attacks, some succeeded others not so much as they were killed by their own attacks. Hearing the sound of wings off in the distance every pony looked and saw an ocean of red coming towards Cantorlot.

"Son of a bitch." Was all Luna had to say.

Getting closer to her throne room Celestia opened the doors that had plenty of holes in them and saw the three take on Shadow, summoning her magic Celestia left herself wide open and through the corner of his eye Shadow saw this and dug his claws into the ground and a stream of black crystals raced for the Princess. Seeing the attack, Cynder shot poison at the black dragon and got in front of Celestia, screaming in pain as the dark crystals stabbed her, penetrating her right side all the way through missing her liver and kidney by inches, her left hind leg, scratching her femur and tibia, grazing her right side under her wing and dislocating a few vertibras in her tail and back. Laughing, Shadow know though he had the upper hand as Spyro looked on in horror as his mate took the attack head on, landing beside his mate he felt her ragged breath and it angered him. His eyes flashed, now a light purple and an aura surrounded him his paw glowed with a rich purple hue spinning around he swiped at the air unleashing three claw marks flying at Shadow. Allan hit the decks as the attack flew over his head and it slammed into the black dragon, sending him through the thrones and into the wall behind them.

Before Shadow could even breath a purple aura surrounded him and he was tossed into the up to the ceiling and he fell down, getting a beam of aether to his chest sending him back into the back wall. Shadow turned to mist and Spyro vanished in a flash of purple and within seconds both dragons emerged and Shadow got blasted out onto the balcony. "Your done killing innocents." Spyro blasted Shadow off the balcony then he folded his wings, stood on his hind legs and charged his aether fury attack, rising up into the air a light purple sphere surrounded him and the next second the sphere exploded outward expanding all the way out to the Celestial Sea and the Luna Ocean. Out on the battle field everyone felt the power of the blast, wiping out every changeling at Cantorlot and at the cities they have captured, every pony saw the purple shock wave and cheered as it blasted the changelings to nothing as for Shadow he was severely injured and flew back to the canyon. Luna saw Spyro fall from the sky and she teleported to him and caught him with her magic and made her way to the throne room where Allan was using a form of magic to decentagrate the dark crystals that stabbed Cynder, slowly putting her on the ground.

"We need to leave now." Allan calmly said not taking his eyes off Cynder and Luna teleported everyone back to the Crystal Empire.

At the Empire Allan was applying special magic to the dragons after a few grueling hours he felt he has done what he can do then he headed for the throne room, a scowl on his face. In the room Cadence sat on her throne, looking at her aunty with a disgusted look on her face, bursting through the doors Allan looked ready to tear Celestia apart.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" He shouted. " Discord told you what do do right? Then why disobey them? You thought you can join our battle, you should have joined your forces be a symbol to them. Now because of your irrigance we almost lost a pregnant dragoness and her first clutch, Spyro drained everything into that attack nearly ending his own life. Had you not interfered that bastard would have been dead but he got away. Next time someone gives you the high and mighty ruler of Equestria an order listen to them!" Allan shouted, punching the wall by the balcony and created a fist size hole in it. "If we loose them their blood will be on YOUR hooves no one else's. Now we have to hunt down Shadow before he recovers fully!"

"But where do we even begin he could anywhere?" Cadence asked.

"Then I'll scorch the planet to find him!" Allan shouted slamming the doors behind him leaving everyone glaring at Celestia as she hung her head.

"Sister what were you thinking? Do you not recall our last battle with him? We lost and he was going easy no doubt and this time from the looks of the throne room he was going full out. Even I dare not challenge Allan, he's a battle harden general he knows how to plan attacks, no offense to you Zephyr and Shining. And he knows our foe better then any of us, we made friends with those dragons and I would hate for them not to trust us when they recovered and as far as I'm concerned Twilight is having troubles with Cynder and most likely you now will. And the fact that Shadow is now in hiding when he could be dead but as Allan said he's in hiding looking for a place to recover."

"And let's not forget that Spyro just freed our world from his dark grip, had this turned out differently we would all be dead and Equestria would be under his rule. We all owe them a lot aunty, don't ruin our friendship by putting yourself before anything else. That's how Twilight lost her friendship with Cynder. Now we need to help Allan find Shadow or I fear he will burn our world in order to find him. Twilight, Zephyr please keep tabs on our patience's let me know if anything comes up, myself and Luna trade places from time to time. Captain Armor, Commander Evening find Allan and help him with his search analyze every possible hiding hole he can fit in and finish what Spyro started."

The two saluted and raced off hoping to find Allan, Twilight and Zephyr made their way to the medical wing, both dragons lying on their backs, only the rise and lower of their chest let them know they were still alive, a light teal aura around both of them, it's aura alone was enough to intrigue Twilight but before she could touch it her coltfriend pushed her hoof down.

"Not right know Twi, it might be the only thing keeping then stable."

"Right maybe another time."

In the dinning room, Allan had a map of the world scanning it, hearing the door open he looked up and saw the two ponies. "What is it?" He asked turning his gaze back to the map."

"Princess Cadence ordered us to help you find your foe and possible help kill him."

"Then let's start looking, does anyone know where they came, if we find the cave we find him."

"Why not the Grand Galloping Canyon, it's deep and wide enough to hide."

"Good place to start, grab your gear then we're gone."

"What about your injuries?"

"Just more scars to add to the collection." Allan said walking to his room.

In the throne room things were heating up as Cadence and Luna sat in a magic bubble holding court against Celestia. Though she couldn't hear them she knew it might be grim for her after all she has done and the lives she put on the line not too mention loosing the biggest threat in the world.

"Sister until further noticed I will be giving the orders while you...you fix what you broke without causing more problems." Luna said

"I understand sister." Celestia said hanging her head.

With that Celestia left the room and the two Princesses looked at each other sadden that they had to do this and if things get worse they will have to hold a more serious court against Celestia, something they wish they do not wish to do.
