The Final Battle.

----Warning, Shits about to hit the fan----

The survivors of the equestrian army were regrouping to defend Canterlot. Nine thousand guards escaped from us, We still had sixty thousand changeling's swarming towards Canterlot, All hope seemed lost for them and total victory was within our grasp.

*Celestia*

"We stand now..Against impossible odds... the changeling's outnumber us six to one... Are you going to let them destroy your homes and devour your loved ones? Would you stand aside and let them succeed? The army roared "NEVER!, WE WILL FIGHT AND DIE FOR YOU PRINCESS!" The army was quickly setting up a defensive perimeter around Canterlot. Hundreds of guards manned the walls with spears and arrows. They were ready to fight to their last breath to defend their home.

"Tonight we make our final stand against the changeling's... If we beat them here the swarm will be crippled. If we truly wish to defeat the hive we must kill its leaders. Chrysalis and Metamorphosis must die here tonight... The army roared in confirmation and turned to the rapidly approaching horde.

Celestia stood with her sister. They both stared at the swarm of changeling's approaching Canterlot. Luna spoke, "Sister... is this the end?" Celestia sighed  "I don't know Luna... but if it is to be our end, then we will make such an end.. that we will be remembered for our stand here tonight." The sisters looked into each others eyes, filled with fear and determination they ignited their horns and prepared to assault the swarm for the last time.

*Meta*

I was flying next to Chrysalis watching the guards scramble to prepare for our attack. Several beams of magic flew from the walls and struck changeling's out of the sky "Is this all the resistance they can-LOOK OUT!" A golden and a blue beam swirled together and exploded. Thousands of changeling's fell from the sky from the massive explosion. I hissed in frustration, Their defensive capabilities already exceeded  my expectations. I saw changeling's attempting to swarm the wall but where being cut down by Pegasi royal guards. I spoke to Chrysalis, "Its our job to stop the princess's.. This time we wont be alone.

"This will be a defining battle for the ages. Chrysalis thought. We flew towards the Princess's together and when they noticed us they took off to meet us in the air. All of our horns began to glow, It was now or never.

Chrysalis collided with Celestia and I collided with Luna. The force of the collision wracked my body, However I could see it did more to Luna. She looked dizzy and I took advantage of her weakness. I struck her with all my might. Luna began to fall when I noticed Chrysalis had not fared as well as I.

Celestia's horn was glowing and she was striking Chrysalis repeatedly. Chrysalis's eyes glowed solid green and she broke the relentless assault with a beam of green energy. They collided again and I turned back to Luna just in time to be struck square in the face by a illuminated hoof, I had to release my grip on her.

I noticed Luna had a black eye and I shot a green beam of energy at her. She countered it with a beam of blue energy and we fought to gain the upper hand over each others magic. I slowly began to overpower her and once the beam reached her horn there was a green flash and she was sent towards the earth.

Now was my chance. I flew into her and made her collision with the earth twice as rough. "CELESTIA! HELP ME! I silenced her with my hoof, "LUNA NO!" I heard Celestia yell. She began to dive bomb me but was slowed down by hundreds of changeling's

I grinned manically and turned to Luna. She had fear in her eyes and I pressed her face into the dirt with my hoof. I leaned closer to her face and instead of going for her throat I went to her horn and bit down hard. Luna screamed in pain and I felt a utterly massive wave of energy enter my body. There was almost to much for my body to hold and twitched as I absorbed Luna's power, as I absorbed it I saw the moon sink down below the horizon,

"NOOOOOOOOOOOO" In a few more moments Luna had turned into a lifeless corpse. I looked at Celestia only to have a wave for fear wash over me. "Perhaps Ive gone to far.."

Celestia hovered with a look of utter rage on her face, her eyes were glowing orange and her mane and tail were ablaze. I saw her horn glow from a brilliant gold to a dark orange.. The sun rose swiftly and to my dread I saw Chrysalis's wings were torn and she looked like she couldn't walk either. I turned back to Celestia and gasped when I saw that the sun had tripled in size and had turned into a menacing red ball.

I expected her to dive bomb me in complete rage, when she didn't I was relieved only to have it immediately replaced with complete terror. Celestia was smothered in a giant fire ball heading straight for Chrysalis. "No.." I put all my strength into a shield around Chrysalis.

When Celestia struck the shield it shattered to a million pieces like a window. "NOOOO CHRYSALIS!!!" I teleported to her and blasted Celestia off of her. I felt Luna's power coursing through my veins and I was able to launch her into the air. I pulled a shield around me to examine the love of my life.

Chrysalis wasn't moving, her hide looked cracked in several places and barely escaped being shattered completely. "No No PLEASE NO! I checked for a heart beat, thank god I found one but it was very faint. Chrysalis was on the verge of death. I canceled the shield and my eyes began to glow a solid green. My irises vanished and I roared with all my strength and barreled towards Celestia.

When we collided I might as well have been trying to stop an avalanche with my chest. I flew back but recovered before I hit the ground. Celestia had unleashed the full power of the sun. I didn't have a snowflakes chance in tarturus to defeat her by myself. I flew down to the swarm, the battle had ended on the ground and Celestia stood alone against us.

I commanded the changeling's to fire all the energy they had into me. They did so and I absorbed their energy. Luna's power as well as the power of the swarm was going to kill me if I didn't vent it off, I charged a beam of energy and shot it at Celestia with all my strength.

Celestia countered my attack with a beam of my own, I was channeling so much energy I could barely control it. I was stunned with shock when Celestia began to beat my attack with hers. "Its not possible..." The orange beam collided with me and I was sent flying.

I struggled to get to my hooves. I noticed Celestia was having a hard time staying in the air. Maybe her power has limits... I thought. The changeling's looked tired and I commanded them to fire their energy at me again, They did as I commanded and I channeled as much energy as I could into the beam. Celestia was on the ground now and she began to charge her horn once more.

When the two beams collided a thundering boom could be heard. I fought her magic for every inch of space I could. Again her magic overpowered me. "Ive come so far... Ive given up so much... I Didn't come this far to give up! ILL DIE BEFORE THAT FUCKING TYRANT BEATS ME!"

I commanded the changeling's to fire the energy they had left towards me. They were exhausted so it wasn't much, I summoned a power deep inside me to defeat Celestia once and for all. I could see Celestia panting, It didn't look like she could take much more. I fired one last desperate beam of green energy at Celestia, She countered it once again but this time I held my ground.

Slowly but surely my magic began to run out, I couldn't summon enough energy to defeat her. The goddess of the sun was simply to powerful... I saw Chrysalis laying in the dirt battered and broken. I gave one final push and my magic began to win out over Celestia. I desperately fought back and she looked like she had enough.

Slowly the energy of the changeling race began to approach Celestia's horn. My heart was racing, Victory just inches away from my hooves. The beam reached Celestia's horn and she was sent flying back. I gave her no respite and quickly charged her before she could regain her footing.

When I reached her she was back to her normal self. I struck her repeatedly "THIS IS FOR CHRYSALIS YOU SON OF A BITCH!" I dragged her over to Chrysalis's body and tossed her in the crater that Chrysalis was in. Chrysalis was still...To still.

"No." I leaned in to her chest..

Silence.

NO! I dragged Celestia closer to Chrysalis. "Please no.." I channeled energy directly into Chrysalis's heart. However resurrection magic took immense amounts of energy. Something I no longer had. A changeling landed next to me with a frighted but determined expression on his face.

I tackled him and bit into his neck. I absorbed the last of his energy and turned back to Chrysalis. "Please don't leave me my love..." I channeled all the energy I could into her heart. I dragged Celestia's neck closer to Chrysalis and my hoof connected with her face when she tried to resist. Nothing happened for a long moment, Tears brewed over and I closed my eyes unable to bear the sight of my love fallen before my eyes. I turned away to hide my pain from Celestia.

I didn't care anymore, my life's meaning had just vanished in a single attack from Celestia. I heard a hiss of pain and Celestia whispered "I'm coming Luna..." The sound of her voice made me enraged. I turned around intent on ripping her throat out myself when I froze mid stride.

Chrysalis was biting into the neck of Celestia and I could see her power rapidly draining. The sun began to shrink and return to normal. Chrysalis looked like she had before the battle and continued to look better and better. Once Celestia had lost the her color and laid still I snapped out of my shock and hugged Chrysalis tighter then I ever had before.

Tears were streaming down my face. "Oh thank god your alright..." I moved her face towards mine and we kissed each other, Our tongues shot into each others mouthes immediately and I embraced her for several minutes. Once we had fulfilled our need for each other I thought. "Do you know how worried I was? I thought id lost you forever."

She replied and I was so relieved to hear her mental voice inside my head "I couldn't just leave you alone Could I? I kissed her again and we started walking towards the rest of the changeling army "You wouldn't believe the kind of power Celestia had inside of her." "I know, Luna has an overwhelming amount of power as well."

Chrysalis gave the starving and exhausted changeling's energy to survive. I looked out across Canterlot and the battle field, We've won... We overthrew two immortal goddess's of the sun and the moon... I nuzzled Chrysalis "We will rule Equestria together my love.." Chrysalis turned to me and her eyes glowed solid green, my eyes soon followed and we both thought.

"Togther Forever"
