School of Anthros

Emberwing and his group found themselves behind a large chunk of rubble, a quick check of the immediate area indicated that they were back at the school. Twilight and Starlight were also here, they were breathing heavily as they were worn out from using so much Elieirx and they were taking a quick break as Princess Celestia joined her sister and niece.

"You two ok?" Emberwing asked as he knelt down next to the girls, his cybernetic hand carefully caressing Twilight's face.

The girls let out a small sound to confirm that their ok, that was until Starlight spotted something.

"What is that gem on your hand?" she asked spotting the final gem on Emberwing's hand.

This caught Twilight's attention as she quickly placed her hands on his and moved it so she can see what Starlight saw. Being a smart student it didn't take her long to figure out what she saw as she looked at the gem on his hand before looking at the other girls to see that five out of seven of her female friends had matching necklaces with a gem set in them. "No way", she said quietly, "You found the Elements of Harmony? How?, she asked looking at Emberwing.

Emberwing looked at the last Element of Harmony, "it's a long story" he began, "short version is. You lot must've noticed that I was absent at some point when we were in the Library before all of this happened right?, well I found a gem", he pointed to the gem in Rarity's necklace. "When I touched it, I was whisked away to another place before a voice called out to me. It gave me the gem for free seeing as it was the Element of Generosity. The voice then gave me two doors and asked me if I wanted to either leave or continue onwards, I went through a few challenges and for each one, I obtained the gems before I was finally brought back to the Library where Princess Celestia was waiting for me". He paused for a bit, "and to sum up the rest of the story. The Princess used her magic to send me to find the bearers of the elements and one by one, I found the girls as well as saving several students. Helping to repair a barrier as well as finding out a little something about my past".

All of the girls minus Starlight and Twilight knew what he was talking about when Emberwing mentioned the last part.

"Something we'll need your help with," Sunset said to the remaining two mares.

Emberwing held up a crystal, "We got this for repairing the barrier. The mare mentioned something about it helping us to send those two back to their world".

Twilight looked at the crystal. "Hmm", she carefully examined it as Emberwing handed it to her. "This appears to be enchanted with a spell designed to specifically return those two back to their world but", she placed her finger in her mouth and gently nibbled on it. "It'll require the magic of a high-level unicorn but," she paused as she looked at Starlight and Sunset. "The only ones here that could do it are the Princesses and their busy or us three", she pointed at herself, Starlight and Sunset.

Sunset took a small step back, "Sorry but I'd rather not try anything of that level. I'd rather not run the risk of returning back to my old self".

As Emberwing held her tenderly, Twilight spoke up. "Well Starlight and I could cast it but we're low on Elieirx but", her voice perked up a bit. "If all of us pour our Elieirx into one pony then we should be able to activate the spell".

Everyone looked at each other before looking back at Twilight.

"In that case," Starlight said, "you should be the one to perform the spell. You've studied under Princess Celestia the longest so your ability to cast the spell successfully is much better than ours".

The other all agreed.

The Unicorn all formed a circle around Twilight, Emberwing included since he is half Unicorn. The non-Unicorns all surrounded the others as they provided their own form of support.

Twilight concentrated on the crystal as the Unicorns channelled their Elieirx from their horns into Twilight's, as she felt the Elieirx entering her and replenishing her depleted reserves. The crystal started glowing before floating away from her hands. It then darted off towards the two invading sisters.

The two barely had time to react as the crystal zipped between them and opening a portal behind them.

"Oh no you don't," Daybreak said as she quickly fired a blast at the three princesses in an attempt to atomise them as she believed that they were the biggest threats. In her head, she thought that those three would attempt to push her sister and herself into the portal.

Celestia, however. Teleported herself and the other two to a safe spot.

Seeing this, the two dark sisters turned their attentions towards Emberwing and his group before launching combined magic blast at them.

Thinking fast with her currently boosted Elieirx reserves, Twilight used what her friends have given her to quickly create a shield to protect the group.

Seeing this, Emberwing looked down at his cybernetic hand before embracing Twilight from behind. As he did, the last element glowed before ejecting itself from his hand and floated up above Twilight before a bright flash transformed it into a crown with the stone embedded in it. Emberwing reached up and guided the crown onto Twilight's head.

The moment the crown touched her scalp, all six gems glowed brightly as the girls floated upwards.

Emberwing and the remaining mares looked up at them before they felt their own hooves leaving the floor.

"Looks like the Elements are calling for us as well," Sunset and Starlight said simultaneously.

"Normally I'd have something to say for a situation like this" Twilight began, "But I'm tired as heck so let's just blast them with the power of our friendship". She looked back at Emberwing, "as well as our love" she said in a much quieter voice.

The Elements fired their magic at the dark pair, magic that was boosted by the other four members of the group. As the double, ten coloured rainbows hit the sisters, You could hear them cursing as they were pushed into the portal. Once inside, the portal closed before the group landed back on the floor.

Emberwing saw the three Princesses walking towards them as his vision started to get blurry, not just his as he noticed that the other girls were slowly kneeling down due to fatigue and low Elieirx levels.

"Rest for now," Celestia said as she stroked Emberwings head whilst guiding him into her ample bosom.

Emberwing couldn't keep his eyes open any longer as they closed themselves, the last thing he felt was the soft warmth of her breasts against his cheeks.
