The moon was in the middle of the sky as it looked over canterlot. Cypher looked up at the sky, deep in thought from one of the tallest buildings in town. After the chaos that had occurred today the town was at peace. This peace was possible with the help of the hero that had appeared out of nowhere, Kamen rider Achilles. The rider may have destroyed the first Magi Beast ever created but it was a small lost compared to the discovering the method to creating them. Though his monstrous face didn’t show it, Cypher was very pleased with how the events played out. But soon the peace will be interrupted by an unexpected guess.

“Yo yo Cypher It's been a while,” A very up beat voice said. The white armored monster turned around to see another monster. This one was orange in color with much bulkier armor. The heaviest of the armor seem to be around his legs and feet making him look like he was walking with large hooves. His head was tall with a segmented mouth plate and two tiny horns coming off the sides. The one thing this new monster had in common with Cypher was the belt he wore around his waist. The oddest thing about him was that he had a bag from a fast food restaurant in his hand.

“Terra, you being here better serve a purpose,” Cypher said, already sounding annoyed.

“Come on buddy you don't need to act all stiff all the time. Here I got a green chili burger for ya,” Terra said as he took a wrapped burger out of the bag and presented it to the winged monster. Cypher responded to this by swatting Terra’s hand way. “Not hungry? That's fine. More for me,” He said as he unwrapped the burger and brought to his mouth. Or he would if he had one in this form. “Dang it, these forms can be so inconvenient.”

Putting the burger back into the bag and reaching for his belt, he pulled a card out of the slot. As he did the orange monster’s body began to glow before fading away. In his place was a man in his early twenties with a fit body. His skin was orange and his hair was a light gray mess with his bangs covering one of his eyes. He wore a black tank top with a design of criss crossing red lines. He also had on a pair of bulky cargo pants with suspenders hanging off the sides. “There we go,” the human said as he took a seat on the ledge and bit into his burger.

“If the only reason you came here is to stuff your face while I watch, I will kick you off this roof,” Cypher said.

“Yeah, Doc sent me here to give you something,” Terra said as he finished his food and threw the wrapper back into the bag. He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a small box and threw it to Cypher. When the monster caught the box he pulled out the contents which were four cards similar to the one that created Kirnos.

“Wow, I didn't think the Doctor would finish these so soon,” Cypher said as he looked through the cards.

“Yeah once he heard that we were able to successfully make a Magi Beast he worked non-stop on making more cards,” Terra said as he unwrapped another burger.

“And I assume he wants me to gather more data on them?” Cypher asked.

“Yeah he wants info on compatible hosts and what kind of powers these things develop. Ya know, the boring stuff that doesn't involve fighting ,” Terra said as he finished his second burger in record time. He then stood up and began to walk away. Terra made it to the other side of the roof before taking one last look at his acquaintance. “Oh I almost forgot. The Doc wasn't happy when you said the Magi Beast was destroyed by a rider. He said that's the last thing we need. Doc wants him in the ground ASAP.”

“I understand,” Cypher said as Terra jumped off the roof and out of sight. The winged monster turned back around to examine the cards he was give. One card in particular caught his interest. The card had the image of a bear on it, but it looked to have been made from a piece of the night sky. “I will see to it that the rider shall never get in our way again”

“Where are they?” Flash said as he stared out the window. Even though the teenager was still trying to process yesterday's events, he still had to go to school. Everyone got out of the attack by the strange monster unharmed but Flash’s car was completely destroyed. The upside to this is that there was an open seat in someone's carpool. Flash was so use to taking his car to school that it felt odd waiting for a ride. When he turned away from the window he looked down to the card that he used yesterday. It was almost unreal what happened but there was no denying that a monster attacked the town and Flash was the one that stopped it.

Flash had decided to keep the driver with him as much as he can. He didn't know if being enchanted met that it will start doing things on it’s own but he wasn't going to take any chances. He was so deep in thought that the sound of a car horn was enough to cause him to jump out of his seat. Flash looked out to see a bright pink buggy and a very excited Pinkie Pie waving from the window. With a smile on his face the teenager rushed out the door and into the back seat. Joining Flash in the carpool was of course Pinkie who was driving. Rainbow Dash sitting next to her with a soccer ball in her lap. And lastly sunset who was sitting next to Flash in the back. “Welcome to the carpool Flash. I hope you brought your floaties,” Pinkie said with a quick laugh. “Just kidding, it's not the season to fill this thing with water and turn int into a mobel pool party.”

“And here I thought I would be able to get some laps in before class,” Flash Joked as everyone joined in a laugh. Pinkie soon pulled into the street and they were on their way to school.

It was a few minutes but Sunset was the first to break the silence. “So Flash. It’s such a drag that you car ended up getting destroyed.” She said.

“Yeah it’s at the mechanic’s now so I’m going to have to go there after school. I’m just happy I made it out of that stupid stunt alive,” Flash said.

“And you got that Kamen Rider to thank for that,” Rainbow chimed in.

“Kamen Rider?” Flash said in bewilderment.

“Yeah check it out,” Rainbow said as she pulled out her phone and scrolled through her browser. She then reached around the seat to show Flash the web page she found. It was filled with blurry pictures of shadowy figures on motorcycles and all kinds of forum threads. “Kamen Rider is supposed to mean Masked Rider or something but it’s a whole urban legend overseas. Apparently they're superheroes that fight for justice from the shadows. From all the pictures Sweetie took of that Achilles guy and posted yesterday, people think he’s a rider.”

“I can’t believe our town now has its very own superhero. I mean it had the us protecting it for way longer but we’re more like magical girls. Can magical girls be super heros cause people tend to treat them as there own thing but they basically do the same thing…” Pinkie started to ramble, taking her hands off the wheel so she can put them to her chin to thing.

“Pinkie the Road!” Rainbow yelled as she took the wheel to prevent them from crashing.

“Hero of Justice?” Flash said as he took the phone from Rainbow. He was impressed with the way the rider fought, even if he knew it was him. I like the sound of that, he thought

“Even if he's a hero of justice I can't help but feel concerned,” Sunset said.

“What do you mean?” Flash asked.

"This Achilles guy may be doing good by protecting others but how long till he goes mad with power like everyone else?" Sunset said.

"Honestly I think it's cool that someone else is helping us out in fighting all this Magic craziness," Rainbow said as Pinkie took back the wheel.

"And you never know, that winged monster may be too much for you girls to Handle," Flash said confidently. Rainbow and Pinkie showed their agreement with a nod.

"I'm just saying we can't be too careful," Sunset replied.

The rest of the car ride was relatively quiet. Nothing much was said besides the four arguing over which station to set the radio on. Of course the arguing didn't last long when they finally got to school.

"So Flash how long till your car gets out of the shop?" Pinkie asked as the four got out of the car.

"I don't know. I'm going to the mechanic after school but considering this is the first car ever to be sliced in half by a dragon monster, I don't have high hopes," Flash answered.

The four all walked together to the entrance of the school. It's was the same as any other day. Some students were trying to get to class before they were late while others were just hanging out before the bell rang. Everything was like the day before, which was refreshing since most of the time whenever there was a magic attack, the school would be damaged in some way.

There was something unusual going on at the bottom of the stairway though. Trixie was in the fruitless process of trying to pull a huge trunk up the stars. She was trying her best to get it up but she wasn't strong enough to force it up. The sight of Trixie struggling caused Rainbow to let out a chuckle. "Hey Trixie, maybe if you hit the weight room instead of staring yourself in the mirror you could get that box up!" Rainbow yelled. Trixie reacted to this by rolling her eyes. If she wasn't putting all her effort into pulling the box, she would have said a very snarky retort.

"Rainbow," Sunset said disapprovingly.

"What? Trixie knows it's all in good fun," Rainbow replied.

"You girls go ahead I'll go help her out," Flash said.

"Flash what did I say the other day," Sunset said.

"Don't worry, helping Trixie with a box won't kill me," Flash said. Before Sunset could put her two cents in the teenage boy was already running to their classmate. "Hey Trixie, need a hand?"

Trixie let out a groaned as Flash approached. She used her hand to flip a lock of her hair out of her face before she stood up proudly. "The Great and Powerful Trixie doesn't require the help of the likes of you. She is more than capable of setting up her performance on her own," Trixie proclaimed.

"Well you could have fooled me," Flash said as he watched Trixie go back to pulling up her trunk.

"Of Course, Trixie can do something as simple as carrying her own equipment," She said as she gave her trunk one last pull. Unfortunately for her she pulled a little too hard and wound up falling backwards on her rear. "Haha on second thought what would Trixie be if she were to deprive someone as eager as you to not handle Trixie's keys to her magnificent miracles."

Flash just smirked as he grabbed the end of the trunk. To most Trixie's boasting would be annoying, but it isn't so bad if you get to know her. She might present herself as the greatest person ever but that's just her own way of interacting to people. She doesn't really believe she is really great and powerful, it's just a persona she puts on. After all it comes with the territory of wanting to be a great Magician. You can't really expect people to be impressed with you magic trick if you yourself don't believe them to be amazing. It was all an act that Trixie performs and if you treat it like that then she can actually be pleasant to be around.

Flash took one end of the trunk while Trixie took the other. On the count of three the two lifted it up and carried it to the top. To Flash's surprise the trunk was a lot heavier than he thought. It was incredible that someone like her was able to carry it this far. "Trixie there is no way you will be able to get this all the way to the stage all on your own," Flash pointed out.

"Are you saying you want to help carry this with me," Trixie said as she struggled to keep up with Flash's pace.

"I'd love to but I have to get to class," Flash answered

"I can get you out of class. Principal Celestia arranged it so me as well as anyone assisting me are excused from class," Trixie said.

" Really?" Flash asked as he dropped the trunk at the top of the stares.

"I had to put in a ton of work so I better have gotten somethings worth while," Trixie said as she stretched.

"That would be great. I kinda flaked on a report due. Still shocked up from the attack yesterday," Flash said as he scratched the back of his head. Trixie beamed with pride as she grabbed the other end and allowed Flash to help her carry the trunk all the way to the gym.

Once they got the gym Flash saw that this trunk wasn't all Trixie had. There was a table center stage with a silk hat on it. To the left was a fancy looking pedestal with a large dish of water on top. To the right was what Flash could only assume was a kind of Iron Maiden. To have all these props here, Trixie must have been working since the crack of dawn.

"Impressive is it not?" Trixie asked as she climbed up on stage. "Only the best when it come to the the Great Trixie's performance," she said as she struck a pose.

"It is but, what is this all for?" Flash asked.

"This is the show where Trixie announces her presence to the world," She said triumphantly. "I worked for months trying to clear it with the Principle to let me perform my first big show at the school. Put all I had into the this show so it will live up to the name "Great and Powerful'"

"So what's in here?" Flash asked as he opened the trunk. Inside was a large smoke machine, a sound system, and some kind of projector.

"That's Trixie's grand finale," she said.

"Where did you get this stuff?" Flash asked.

"My dad has some connection being a Las Pegasus magician himself," Trixie Answered. "Now come on, this stuff won't set itself up."

Over the course of three periods, Flash helped Trixie set everything up. Since he had some experience doing it for his band, Flash mostly works with the sound system. Trixie was mostly in the rafters of the stage with the projectors. With the two working together the equipment was successfully hidden throughout the stage.

"I got to say, I may not know what you have planned but it must be impressive," Flash said as the two looked over there work.

"Oh it will be.” Trixie said smugly. "Of course since you helped me set it up, you’re now honor bound to keep it a secret."

"What?!"

"A magician never reveals their secrets. Since you helped set this trip up, you are now responsible for that my secret," Trixie said as she turned to Flash.

Flash couldn't help but laugh at the expression Trixie was making. He knew what she was saying was important but it was hard to keep a straight face. "Ok, I won't tell anyone," Flash said with as much seriousness as he can.

"Good and here's your bonus for keeping it," Trixie said as she pulled out a piece of paper. Flash took paper and unfolded it to reveal that it was a flyer for the show. It was one of Trixie's homemade show posters with her front and center. Right across the words was her signature in bright pink ink. "You get to be the first to get Trixie's handwritten autograph before anyone else. Better save it cause it will be worth a fortune one day."

"Jee, thanks," Flash said with a roll of his eyes.

"Oh is Trixie's kindness not enough for you?" Trixie said as she turned around. "Then how about she treats you to lunch. Trixie still has to get some last minute stuff so she will treat you to lunch later."

"That sounds very "Great" of you oh powerful one," Flash said trying to play along.

"Then meet Trixie at the sports field at lunch time," Trixie said before running out of the gym. Flash just smiled as Trixie walked away with a spring in her step.

Fifth period came and went and Flash was on his way the sports field as per Trixie's request. It wasn't too abnormal for students to eat their lunch out here. Sometimes members of the sports teams would come here to get in a little extra practice but other times students just want to eat outside. Flash saw Trixie running across the field but a second later he saw that she was running in terror. In the sky behind the girl was a familiar winged monster flying fast. Seeing this caused Flash hide behind the bleacher.

Cypher flapped his wings to gain speed and pulled ahead of Trixie before landing in front of her. Trixie froze in place as Cypher took a step forward. "Don't be scared, you will be helping us with our experiments. The data we collect will help a great deal in creating stronger Magi-Beasts," Cypher said as he held up a card.

As much as she wanted to run Trixie couldn't. All she could do was watch as the monster placed the card on her chest. When Cypher removed his hand the card began to glow a light purple. The card floated off her body before transforming into a deep purple blob covered in bright sparkles. It almost looked like an image of space was starting to take the shape of a human. The mass resembled a black mannequin with no real features. A large white metallic ring then formed attached to its back that looked like some kind of old navigation equipment. When the transformation was complete the new monster opened its yellow eyes which was the only lights not slowly moving on its body.

"Welcome the to the physical world Constellar," Cypher said with a bow.

"Really, that's it? The world has finally been blessed with that majestic that is I, Constellar and you are the best welcome it has to offer?" The new monster said as he crossed his arms. Cypher was at a lost for words as to what was going on.

While this all was happening Flash was watching. If he were to run the monsters will attack and he didn't think the girls will get here in time if he texted them. Flash knew there was only one option and it was in his jacket pocket. Taking a deep breath Flash took the driver out of his jacked and put it into position around his waist. "Alright time to live up to the Kamen Rider name everyone gave me," Flash said as he pressed the button on the driver and took the Rider card out. "Henshin!" Flash yelled as he placed the card into the slot.

"OK!"

"A HERO’S STORY YET TO BE TOLD! FIGHTING TO PROTECT ALL!”

“R-R-R-RIDER!”

The magical circle appeared and passed over the teens body. In an instant Flash was transformed into his Achilles persona. He slapped the sides of his face with both hands just to make sure he was in control. "Everything seems alright, now time to save Trixie," the rider said before running out from behind the bleachers. Achilles let out a mighty yell as he pulled out his spear and ran right towards the monsters.

Constellar's mood changed from disappointment to excitement. "Yes! An opponent to prove my power," He said with his arms splayed out. Appearing around him were swords of light in the shape of stars. With a flick of his wrist the swords were launch directly towards the rider.

Achilles used his spear to knock away one of the swords. He then jumped out of the way as the others crashed into the ground. "This guy isn't going to be as simple to beat as the last time," The rider said as he closed in on the monsters. Achilles then lunged forward with his spear to catch the monster off guard before swinging it to perform a slash. The rider then looked to Trixie who was very much scared of the situation she was in. "You need to get out of here, Run!" He yelled before grabbing Trixie's arm and pushing her away from the fight.

"How dare you? Some one as lowly as you hasn't the right to attack me like that. You need to be put in your place," Constellar said as he launched more swords.

Achilles moved out of the way of the attack but he was so focused on the attacks he didn't notice the other monster and bumped into him. Turning around Achilles saw Cypher staring him down. "I'm so glad you showed up rider. It's saves me the trouble of tracking you down," Cypher said. A hilt grew out of one of his wings as grabbed it and pulled it out revealing a double edged sword. With a mighty swing the winged monster forced the rider to roll out of the way. "I will eliminate you before you ever become a hindrance to the Doctor's research."

"Two on one, this is not good at all," The rider said as he dodged another attack from Cypher. He was very much outmatched by the two magi beast and he had to think of something. The only thing he had to work with was his spear which, upon closer inspection, seemed to have a grip forming the piece that connected the head to the poll. As the two monster approached,

Achilles collapsed the spear and found that this form was more then a way of making the spear easier to carry. Achilles held the weapon by the grip and pointed the bottom end of the spear at the the monster. When he pulled the trigger, bolts of energy went flying which caught everyone off guard. "Awesome, now I don't need to get close to your ugly mugs."

“How dare you say such things,” Constellar said as he threw more projectiles at the rider.

Achilles aimed for the swords and shot at them to knock them off course. As the rider fired he ran up to the monster. This caught Constellar off guard that the rider was able kick him. When he was knocked back Achilles fired at the monster directly. “Not so high and mighty now?” Achilles said.

The rider was so focused on the monster that he didn’t see Cypher come up from behind and attack with his sword. “You were saying?” Cypher said as the rider hit the ground. The winged monster now stood over his enemy with his blade aimed skyward. “I would say it’s been a pleasure but I'm not one to say lies,” Cypher declared.

All seemed lost for the kamen rider but Trixie came out of nowhere to get between him and the monster. “If you want to finish this guy your going to have to go through me!” she declared. Even though Trixie herself didn’t believe her actions were going to do anything, surprisingly it was enough to get Cypher to lower his sword.

“If your so eager to throw your life away, I'd be more than happy to oblige,” Constellar announced as he go in front of Cypher with a star sword in hand. The Magi Beast was ready to strike down Trixie but was stopped when he felt Cyphers hand on his shoulder.

“You can’t hurt her Constellar. Not yet at least,” Cypher said.

“And why not. What gives you the authority to tell me what to do?” Constellar asked as he turned to his fellow monster.

“If you value your existence you will leave the girl unharmed and fall back. This has just became a most unpreferable situation. As much as I would like to destroy the rider as soon as possible we can do it at another time,” Cypher said as he stared down Constellar.

Constellar didn’t understand why Cypher suddenly changed his mind but he didn’t see anyway around it. “Fine,” Constellar huffed as he threw his star sword to the side. “This isn’t the last you'll hear of the mighty Constellar,” He said as he started to walk away before several of the lights on his body began to flicker brightly before vanishing in a flash.

“You were lucky that girl was there to protect you rider. Next time there will be nothing to get in our way,” Cypher said before spreading his wings and flying off.

Once the monsters were gone Trixie fell to her knees. “Oh my goodness, that was the biggest bluff I ever had to make,” She said as she took in a deep breath.

“You didn't have to do that,” Achilles said said as he started to get up.

“Of course I did. You're like the second person to ever stick their neck out for me in my time of need. The first being the friend I was going to meet here,” Trixie said as she turned to the rider.

“Oh,” Achilles said as he released that he might be blowing Trixie off. “Well as much as I appreciate what you did, you shouldn't have done something so risky. That’s my job,” The rider said as he helped Trixie up.

“Yeah I will admit that was foolish,” Trixie said as she scratched the back of her head.

“You better get to the nurse to make sure everything is alright,” Achilles said. Trixie agreed and ran back to the building. Once she was inside the rider took the card out of the driver and transformed back to normal. “Man now I feel awful I’m going to have to miss her show. I need to at least get back before her finale,” Flash said.

As the day went on Trixie didn't let the monster attack rattle her. Like so many performers before her would say “the show must go on”. Once the school day was done Trixie made a dash right towards the stage. Trixie only had an hour to make sure everything was perfect. In addition to fighting the clock till the curtains raised Trixie was also fighting her nerves. Her first magic show not on the side of the street and her stomach was in knots. Backstage, Trixie was working tediously on her makeup that the mear action of the door opening was enough to almost cause her to draw a line across her face.

“Happy opening night Trixie!” Pinkie yelled as she as well as her friends entered the dressing room.

“Don’t do that!” Trixie yelled back. “I’m so worked up right now that I can't get my makeup right.”

“Here let me take care of that. A girl shouldn't handle makeup worked up by nerves,” Rarity said as she took the brush out of Trixie’s hand. She then proceeded to take over applying the makeup onto trixie’s face.

“Why are you guys here anyway?” Trixie asked.

“Pinkie wanted to make sure that you were doing alright for you show. It looks like a packed house out there,” Rainbow answered.

“I never would have thought you of all people would be have stage fright,” Applejack followed.

“Yeah well as a street performer the biggest crowd I ever had to perform for was at most ten people. It’s a bit different to have a full audience,” Trixie said as Rarity moved on to the eye shadow. “Not to mention the fear of my tricks not being amazing enough.”

Twilight was looking around the room till her eyes spotted an advanced chemistry book with several bookmarks. “Did you use this to plane out some of your tricks?” Twilight asked.

“Yes and don't look at that. The last thing I need right now are my tricks revealed,” Trixie said.

“Fair enough. Just know that if your using the stuff in this book in your performance, I guarantee everyone will be amazed,” Twilight said.

Fluttershy took a seat next to Trixie as Rarity moved onto her eyelashes. “Trixie you have nothing to worry about. I know how much you put into all of your magic tricks and it will show when your on stage. I mean if I was able to overcome stage fright then someone as confident as you should have no problem. You did great performing at the battle of the bands,” Fluttershy said.

“That was just music. This is my passion. But I get it so Thanks. Its real nice that you girls came to help me of all people out,” Trixie said.

“Well we kinda had too. Pinkie had a feeling you were in need of some cheering up,” Sunset said.

“I love magicians. There my favorite form uof party entertainment after live music,” Pinkie said as she picked up a real sword out of a barrel of identical swords.

“Well Trixie appreciates it oh Pink and Joyful one,” Trixie said as she started to get into character.

“And done,” Rarity said as she put on a small about of glitter makeup to finish the look. When Trixie looked into the mirror she was amazed at what Rarity had done. From the lipstick to the eye shadow Trixie looked absolutely gorgeous. Even she had to admit her makeup skills pales in comparison to Rarity’s.

“Looks like your feeling better now so we better get to out seats,” Sunset said as the seven girls exited the dressing room. “Break a leg.”

Trixie smiled as the girls left and she turned back to the mirror. “Don’t worry girls, the Great and Powerful Trixie will knock all your socks off. And no monster showing up will scare me away,”

The only one that didn't seem to going to Trixie’s show was Flash. As much as he would have love to support his friend, going to the mechanic wasn't something he could blow off. After taking two buses and walking five blocks Flash finally made it the garage. Flash didn’t see really see the point in coming all this way when he was pretty sure he know what the mechanic would say.

“There is no way we can fix this car,” The middle aged man said with the two pieces of car behind him. “Not only have I never encountered a car cut in half like this. Most of the insides looks like they have been through a hydraulic press. It’s more worth it to sell this thing for scrap the its is to fix it,” He said as he wiped the grease off his hands.

“Yeah I kinda saw that coming,” Flash said looking a bit down. “I just wish you could have told me this on the phone instead of having me come all the way out here,” He said as he turned around.

“Hey kid!” the mechanic yelled to catch Flash’s attention. “This thing won’t get much the way that it is and I can see you have somewhere to be. Sell the car to me and I’ll give you the Motorcycle I’ve been working on in the back. By the time I was done with the thing it’s as good as new.”

“Your serious?” Flash asked as he got excited.

“Only if you know how to ride one,” The mechanic followed. Once the man dug the keys out of a drawer and handed them to Flash before showing him the bike. The Mechanic wasn't lying when he said the bike was as good as new. It was a blue motorcycle that looked more for the streets then off-roading. It even came with a matching helmet. Once Flash had to sign a few papers but by the end of it the bike was his. Even though a motorcycle wasn't a replacement for his car, he was happy with it.

Before pulling out Flash pulled out his phone to check out the time. “Hopefully I can make it back to school on time,” he said before putting his phone away and starting the engine. He pulled out into the road and on his way to catch Trixie’s show.

It was a full house in the gym. Everyone was ready to see the debut of The Great and Powerful Trixie. The crowd soon quieted down as the spotlight came on and the curtain rose. Standing center stage was The Great and Powerful Trixie. Gone was blue hoodie as the magician was clad in a black unitard with fishnet stocking. Around her neck was a detached collar with a bow tie that match the cuffs she had around her wrists. Over the outfit was a purple vest with long tails in the back. To complete the magician look Trixie had a silk hat on her head with a star decorating it.

“Ok Trixie, time to earn your title,” Trixie whispered to herself before walking up on stage. “Ladies and Gentlemen! The Great and Powerful Trixie is proud to have you all bear witness to her amazing debut!” Trixie announced to the audience. She then fanned out a deck of cards that appeared out of thin air in her hands and presented them to everyone. “It’s Show Time!” she yelled as she threw the cards into the air. Music started to play as the card explodes into confetti that showered over the audience.

This simple trick caught the attention of everyone watching. Trixie took this as a good sign for how the rest of the show will go. “Haha you thought that was impressive? Trixie hasn't even begun to show you her power,” Trixie said with a confident smile she then clapped her hands together before bringing them apart to reveal a purple sheet with yellow and blue stars. “For her first trick, Trixie would need a volunteer.”

The audience came alive with teens wanting to be picked to come on stage. Pinkie especially wanted to be picked. Trixie looked over the crowd before she found who she was looking for. “You there!” Trixie proclaimed as she pointed into the crowd.

“Me?” Sunset asked as the spotlight on her.

“Yes, your hair of flames makes you a perfect fit for this amazing disappearing act,” Trixie said. This came as a surprise to Sunset, not expecting to be called up on stage. All she could do was play along. Once she joined trixie on stage the audience gave her a round of applause. “You have nothing to fear Sunset, you are in the presents of a master of magic.”

“I find that hard to believe since my teacher back a home was able to move the sun,” Sunset joked.

Trixie didn’t let the comment get to her as she covered her assistant with the sheet. “Trixie is sure back in you world you have plenty of amazing wizards,” Trixie said as she stepped away from Sunset. The magician then pulled a very gothic looking lighter from her vest and light it. “But in this world's magic has a bit more Razal Dazl,” She finished as she threw the flame onto the sheet.

Everyone gasped as the she was turned to ash in mere seconds. Sunset had disappeared just as quickly as the flames had. The crowd began to clap but Trixie raised her hand to signal them to stop. “Hold on everyone, Trixie isn't done yet.”

Trixie took off her hat and placed on the table. “And now The Great and Powerful Trixie shall make Sunset Shimmer reappear,” she announced. She put her hand into the hat and began to dig around in there before bringing her hand out holding onto Sunset’s vest. The rest of Sunset somehow followed through the hole in the hat. What was odd was that she also had on a pair of fake bunny ears. “Can your teacher do something like that?”

“Yeah but that was still really cool,” Sunset said as she got down from the table. “But what's with the bunny ears?”

“It has to be a bunny that comes out of a magician’s hat. That how it works,” Trixie said proudly. “Let’s have a hand for the Great and Powerful Trixie’s assistant!” Trixie yelled. The audience followed her words as they gave the two a round of applause.

Once Sunset got off the stage, Trixie continued with the show. One of the tricks she performed was blowing a pile of sparkling dust into a dish of water. Within second the water froze into a large mass of ice crystals. This amazed the whole crowd, especially Twilight since she knew this was what the chemistry book was for. Another involved Trixie to be locked in the iron maiden and having the stagehand skewer her with swords. No screams were heard but when the stage hands were done the iron maiden was covering in a puff of smoke. When it cleared, Trixie was standing on top of the Iron Maiden completely unharmed.

The crowd went wild as Trixie continued to amaze them. Soon the end of the show approached and began to take a bow center stage. “Trixie thanks you all. Without an audience to entertain the Great and Powerful Trixie would be nothing,” Trixie declared. She then struck a pose as smoke rolled off the stage. “And now for her grand finally. The Mighty Trixie shall summon the most powerful of beats, a dragon.”

Everyone was awestruck at Trixie’s claim. The smoke was starting to spread threw the whole gym. It wasn't thick enough to obscure anyone’s vision but it was enough for people to notice. Trixie began to chant as everyone stared in anticipation for what was about to happen. “Now come forth mighty beast of legend!” Trixie yelled, striking a pose.

The crowd looked on with bated breath but nothing happened. Trixie kept her pose but was starting to panic. She kept hitting the small controller in her cuff but it wasn’t working. She then looked up to the projectors to see that they looked to be destroyed by a familiar looking projectile. The audience was starting to get restless with the lack of a dragon. “What's wrong? Not as powerful as you thought,” A menacing voice said from the side of the stage. The lights came one to reveal that the voice belonged to Constellar.

Everyone was surprised by this development especially Sunset and her friends. “W-what are you doing here?” Trixie asked as she took a few steps back. She was so scared by the monster’s appearance that she didn’t notice that her hand was starting to turn transparent.

“I’m here to show that someone as week as you has no right to call themselves “Great and Powerful”’ Constellar said as he launched several star swords and destroyed Trixie’s props. The destruction caused everyone to run out in a panic but the seven girls audience members stayed behind.

“That looks like that monster you and Rarity saw yesterday,” Rainbow said.

“Yeah and just as mean looking,” Sunset followed.

“Do you think Achilles will come to help?” Fluttershy asked.

“Doesn't look like we have time to wait,” Applejack answered. The seven girls were in agreement and made there way to the stage.

Constellar slowly walked closer to Trixie with more swords floating behind him. “Don’t feel to bad. You get to bear witness to my shining moment. The moment I become whole.”

Before Trixie could ask what he meant, pink sparkles landed at the monsters feet. Constellar didn't notice that when they exploded into pink smoke was a complete surprise. With the monster blinded he couldn't see the rainbow blur speed past him. When the blur made another pass, Constella was knocked back. When the monster looked up to see the seven girls standing in front of Trixie.

“Sorry but we’re not letting anywhere near our friend,” Twilight said.

“Admirable effort but pointless when going up against someone of my caliber,” Constellar said as he launched three star swords at them. Applejack saw this and stomped on the floor causing the floorboards to stand up to stop the swords. Pinkie and Rarity counter with their own ranged attacks.

While Constellar was busy Sunset and Fluttershy got Trixie to safety. “Your not hurt are you?” Fluttershy asked from behind the flipped over table.

“I don’t think he hit me,” Trixie said as she looked herself over. She was mostly unharmed but when she saw that her hand was see through it caused her to scream. “What is going on!?”

“Did a winged monster place a card on you and create that star monster?” Sunset asked. Trixie nodded her head to answer yes. “Alright I just need to check something out,” Sunset said as he grabbed Trixie’s hand. Sunset’s eyes glowed white as she was able to see the events Trixie went through during the finally. She was able to feel the fear and embarrassment trixie felt and see that that was the point when Trixie’s hand began to vanish.

“What did you see?” Fluttershy asked as Sunset let go of Trixie.

“Well I have a theory as to why you seem to be vanishing. That monster is draining your life force,” Sunset answered.

“WHAT!?” Trixie yelled out.

“I can feel it through you. You life was being drained by that thing and I'm willing to bet the negative emotions you felt when your trick didn't work only made it worse. If equestrian magic was what created that thing from you then adding negative emotions to the equation only make things worse,” Sunset explained.

“So I’m vanishing cause that creep sabotaged my grand finally?” Trixie said. She began to get mad but when she did the transparency started to spread to the rest of her body.

“Haha I grow stronger by the second,” Constellar said as his Star Sword production seemed to increase.

“Trixie you need to calm down. Even anger seems to make him stronger and you vanish faster,” Sunset said.

“Take this!” Twilight yelled as her purple aura covered her hands. The iron maiden on stage floated into the air before it flew towards the monster. Twilight was able to trap the monster in the metal prop before using several chains and locks to insure that he won't get out. “That might hold him for awhile,” Twilight said. After she said that, a star sword busted through the maiden.

“How do we beat this guy. He’s getting stronger by the second,” Applejack said.

“We need to protect Trixie. That’s where his power is coming from,” Sunset said as she got to the front lines.

More swords began to burst threw the Iron Maiden before the whole thing bursted apart. What came out of it was something no one expected. Standing before the girls was a giant bear like creature that took up the whole stage. It kept the look of being made of stars with the ring that was on the monster back now acting as a head crest and several star swords sticking out of its back. “Count yourselves lucky. You all get to bear witness to my true power!” Constellar announced.

The seven girls scattered as the giant bear began to move forward. Out of the group, twilight was the only one to make a brake to protect Trixie. She got to the magician just in time for both of the girls to be trapped in the bear’s grip. The beast opened his mouth up wide before consuming the two. Due to the nature of the bear’s body the girls were able to see Twilight and Trixie captured. “Now i can drain the last of the energy of that underling with no interuptions,” Constellar said. The rest of the girls tried to attack the monster but it looked to have no effect. With the fight basically done, Constellar crashed through the wall and into the street.

“Wow, didn't see that coming,’ Applejack said as she and her friends watch the bear getaway.

.

The school had just come into view for Flash. He hoped that he wasn’t too late to see Trixie’s grand finally. He was also very happy with how well the motorcycle seems to handel. Everything seemed to be going good for flash until he heard a loud crash and skidded to a stop. Looking at the school he saw Constellar crash through the wall off the gym and dash down the road. He saw Rainbow and Rarity give chase to the giant bear monster.

Seeing this Flash flipped up the visor of his helmet and pulled out his phone. “Hey sunset,” Flash said once sunset picked up on the other end of the phone. “I just saw a giant constellation bear bust through the gym. Mind giving me a status update?”

“Ya know the monster that attacked us yesterday?” Sunset said.

“Yeah,” Flash answered already seeing where this is going.

“Well another one attacked Trixie’s show, grew into what I'm assuming is an Ursa Minor, and ran off with Trixie and Twilight. Rarity and Rainbow are giving chase,” Sunset followed.

“Ok I guess I'll go find where everyone ran off to and try to help there,” Flash said as he revved up his bike.

“That sounds good,” Sunset said as the two hung up.

Flash put his phone away and pulled out his driver to put it around his waist. His bike then sped up to give chase towards the monster. “Henshin!” Flash yelled as he put the card into the slot of the driver.

"A HERO’S STORY YET TO BE TOLD! FIGHTING TO PROTECT ALL!”

“R-R-R-RIDER!”

The motorcycle drove threw the magic to transform Flash into Achilles. Flash’s new bike seemed to have transformed as well changing into a gold color with a design that looked like it was built out of a chariot. He twisted the throttle more to speed up to the bear.

Meanwhile Rainbow Dash was speeding after the bear with her wings with rarity following on top of a crystal platform. Rainbow tried to attack with a aerial kick but it did little more than irritate the monster. ”You think your weak attacks can stop me” Constellar said as he swatted at teenage girl.

“Maybe you rather have something more dazzling,” Rarity said as she launched several crystal shards at the beast. The shards just shattered against the bear’s hide. In response to this Constellar slammed his body into Rarity causing her to fall back on her platform.

“Rarity!” Twilight yelled as she saw her friend fall through the monster’s body.

Fortunately before she hit the ground. Achilles stopped on his bike and caught the falling girl. “Oh my, thank you so much,” Rarity said.

“It was no problem,” Achilles replied as he let rarity down. “I think it will be safer if you ride with me,” he said, offering Rarity a helmet.

“Yeah you might be right,” Rarity said as she took the helmet. “Do you have a more stylish helmet?”

“We don’t have time, they're getting away,” Achilles said.

“I guess you're right,” Rarity said as she strapped on the helmet and got on the back of the bike. Once she was safely on Achilles sped up to catch up to Rainbow and Constellar.

Once the rider got close to the beast he pulled out his spear. Trying his best to keep the bike under control, the rider started to stab the monster’s under belly. Unfortunately like Rainbow’s and Rarity’s attacks Achilles only performed minimal damage.

“I was wondering when you will show up rider. Cypher told me to take care of you personally,” Constellar said as he used his claw to attack the rider. Achilles saw this and hit the breaks, douging the attack. The large bear changed directions and started to chase after the rider. This caused Achilles to change directions as well and run away.

“That thing’s become too powerful,” Rarity said.

“Tell me about it. If only we could pin him down I could get a good strike in,” Achilles said. As soon as he said those words an idea came into his head. “Hey Rainbow-haired girl!” he yelled out.

“Sup?” Rainbow asked as she flew up next to the motorcycle.

“Do you think you can distract this guy for a bit before leading him to the construction site?” Achilles asked

“You have a plan don't you. Ok I’ll help you out,” Rainbow said as she flew back to the monster’s face. “Hey Space Cace!” Rainbow yelled as she kicked Constellar right in the head. This didn't really affected the monster till she began to repeat the action at high speed. This was enough to annoy the bear and put his attention onto the teenage girl. While this was going on, Achilles made his way to the construction site.

When he got there he found what he was looking for. A bunch steel girders stacked up into the frame of a building. “Hey I need to ask. If i needed you to. Can you create a shield around you friends inside that beast?” He asked.

“Yeah, as long as I can see them I should be able to make a shell around them,” Rarity said as she took off the helmet.

Achilles nodded his head as he pulled out his blaster. He then started to shoot at the connections on the building's frame to weaken them. He then made sure to get rarity to safety before Constellar arrived. It only took a minute before Rainbow came wheezing threw with Constellar following. “So you finally realized it was pointless to try and match powers with someone as great as me,” Constellar said as he eyed as Achilles.

“No, I just needed a place where I can outsmart you,” Achilles said as held out his blaster. With the pull of the trigger a bolt of energy flew threw the air and hit the bear right between the eyes. This angered the monster and caused him to let out a mighty roar before charging at the rider. “Do it now!” Achilles yelled as he quickly shot one of the beams above him. This put too much stress on the joints of the beams and caused the whole frame to fall on top of the bear.

The bars began to move before a sphere made of crystal burst out of the wreckage. The sphere followed Rarity’s hands before it came close to her and disappeared. Within the sphere was Twilight and Trixie who were alright. “Are you girls ok?” Rarity asked.

“I’m fine but it looks like Trixie’s condition is getting worst,” Twilight said as she brought attention to Trixie. She was much more transparent now that it was hard to see her. She looked weaker then she did before, not even having the strength to get up. “If we don’t stop that monster soon then she’s a goner.”

“But Achilles just defeated him,” Rarity said as she looked back at the wreckage.

“Oh that wasn't meant to defeat him,” Achilles said as he changed his weapon back into a spear. More of the metal bars began to move before Constellar back in his normal form emerged holding two star swords. “That was just to get him back on our level.”

“You have a lot of nerve to do something like that but unfortunately that won't save you from my wrath,” Constellar said.

“You can threat all you want,By the time this Battle is over, I’ll rock you to your core,” Achilles announced as he charged at the monster. He then performed a slash with his blade that sent Constellar back. Constellar countered by shooting several swords at the rider. The rider knocked them all away as he got closer again. The monster swung his sword but Achilles blocked it with his spear handle. He then punched Constellar in the face causing him to reel back. “This is for ruining Trixie’s grand finally,” Achilles said as he took the card out of the driver and into the slot on the spear.

“CHARGING!”

The blade of the spear began to glow with energy before extending longer. Achilles spun the spear above his head before rushing at the monster. This attack took Constellar by surprise before he was impaled by the energy blade. Achilles then lifted the monster over his head before jumping into the air.

“No! You can't do this to the powerful Constellar!” The monster cried as the rider aimed his spear to the ground.

“You don't look too powerful to me Airhead,” Achilles said as he launched the spear down.

“RIDER FEEDBACK!”

The monster fell and fell faster due to the energy of the spear pushing him. When he hit the ground a magic circle appeared out of the shockwave before it began to close in on the monster. Once it got to his body it exploded with Achilles landing in front of it.

When the monster was destroyed an aura came out of the explosion and into what was left of Trixie’s body. She then began to regain strength and looked more solid. When she opened her eyes she saw the rider that saved her as he extended his hand. “I guess that makes us even for earlier,” Achilles said.

“Y-you saved my life,” Trixie said as she she got up.

“It’s just what friends do,” Twilight said as Rainbow joined the group.

Trixie looked around before tears began to run down her face. “I- I don't know what to say. You have done so much for me I don't know how to repay it,” she said as she broke out in tears.

“You really don’t have to repay us at all darling really,” Rarity said.

“I know what you can do to repay us,” Achilles spoke up. He pulled out the flyer from her show and gave it to her. “You can prepare for you next performance and go after your dream,” the rider said.

Trixie took the flyer and started to smiled again. She then looked up to see the rider walk towards his bike

”Hey where are you going?” Rainbow asked.

“The monster is gone so there is nothing left for me to do,” The rider said as he started his bike up. Before any of the girls could say anything the rider peeled out of the construction site and off towards the horizon. Once they made sure Trixie was totally fine they left to make there way back to the school.

Trixie, twilight and all the other girls all stood in front of the destroyed gymnasium. Nobody was injured but all of Trixie’s props were destroyed. “I’m so sorry your show was ruined,” Fluttershy said.

“Yeah, that dragon finally would have been fantastic,” Pinkie followed.

“It’s fine,” Trixie said as she picked up a broken projector from the rubble. “This just a minor roadblock on The Great and Powerful Trixie’s road to greatness,” She proclaimed

“That's good to hear,” Sunset said as she patted Trixie’s shoulders. The girls all shared in a laugh.

“Hey where’s Flash?” Trixie asked. Rainbow pointed her to the parking lot where Flash was standing with his new bike.

“Oh hey Trixie, Sorry I missed your show. Though I guess its good I missed monster attack.” Flash said.

“Don’t play dumb with me,” Trixie said as she got up close up. “I know your the rider that save me,” She whispered.

Flash was shocked by this claim but tried his best to play it cool. “What? Me? No way. I can’t be a superhero,” Flash said as she held himself up on his bike.

“Yes you can and you slipped up big time,” Trixie said as she pulled out the flyer Achilles gave her.

“Trixie you spread those flyers all over the place,” Flash said.

“Yeah but your the only person to have one that I signed,” Trixie said as she brought attention to her pink signature.

“Stupid, Stupid, Stupid,” Flash said as he face palmed repeatedly.

“Hey don’t beat yourself up over this I’m not going to tell anyone,” Trixie said to make Flash stop hitting himself.

“Really?” Flash asked.

“Yeah, it's my honor as a magician to keep other’s secrets not just our own,” Trixie said with her arms crossed. “Plus you might need some help with all these monsters.”

“That's very nice of you Trixie,” Flash said.

“But!” Trixie interrupted with a raise of her finger. “My assistance isn't free, you will have to do a favor for me, without refusal on a date of my choosing,” Trixie demanded.

Flash had no clue what Trixie was talking about but to have someone else he can trust with his secret does sound nice. The part about the favor did worry him but since it was Trixie he was sure he could handle it. “Alright Trixie, you have a deal,” Flash said with a smile as the two shook hands to seal their partnership.

With a new Motorcycle and a new ally, Flash has grown a little bit stronger against Cypher, the Magi-Beasts, and the man that seems to be creating all this chaos.
