“So darling, which do you think would make a better robe; sparkling fuchsia or velvet red?” Rarity asked as she held up two silk colored materials.

“Rarity as much as I adore your creativity and talent I’m not exactly a fashionista or equivalent” Tyler explained as he placed his right hand on the back of his neck.

“Oh that’s quite alright darling, how about this...if you choose what color I’ll show you an early sketch of my swimwear line” Rarity offered as she punctuated “swimwear line.”

“U-uh velvet r-red” Tyler stammered as he felt the heat in his face and pants rise a bit.

“Mmm good choice”- Rarity replied and kissed Tyler’s cheek before placing the fabric in the cart -“now then how about some thread?” Rarity suggested.

“Sounds great to me” Tyler replied as he pushed the cart and followed the mare to where the threads, yarn, ect was.

After a few more minutes the two emerged from the store with Tyler holding most of the bags, Rarity was only holding two small bags.

“So then, where to ne-” Tyler started as the mall started to shake before quickly settling down.

“Was that an earthquake?” Twilight asked.

“Felt like it, is everyone alright?” Tyler replied.

“Yea, what about you guys?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“I-I’m a little scared but I’m otherwise fine” Fluttershy responded.

“Same here darling” Rarity replied.

“I’m okay, just a little caught off-guard” Twilight added.

“Good, everyone’s okay. So do you guys wanna continue or go home?” Tyler asked.

“Kidding me? Let’s get to the sports center!” Rainbow Dash squealed, earring a couple of giggles from the rest.

“Alright” Tyler chuckled as he followed his marefriend.

The group soon reached the sports center where Rainbow Dash then yanked Tyler inside.

“Heh sorry” Rainbow Dash said upon noticing Tyler had tripped, she then helped her boyfriend up.

“Don’t worry about it, now then what did you wanna get?” Tyler asked with a chuckle.

“Mainly a new baseball bat, a soccer ball and maybe at least one hat” Rainbow Dash replied.

“Okay them lets get said items” Tyler said as he patted the azure Pegasus mare’s head causing her to pout a little.

“F-fine...” Rainbow Dash muttered as the two made their way to the bat section when another tremor was felt, this time noticeably stronger then before.

“Another one?” Tyler thought as he caught Rainbow Dash who had tripped during the shaking.

“Th-thanks” Rainbow Dash replied as the shaking subsided once more.

“No problem, lets just get your stuff and go before more aftershocks come” Tyler suggested.

“Y-yea” Rainbow Dash stammered, now a little bit shaken up as the pair hastily finished shopping before meeting up with Twilight, Rarity and the now quivering Fluttershy.

“Are you two okay?” Twilight asked.

“Yea, just a little shaken up what about you guys” Tyler replied.

“Everyone here is okay” Twilight answered.

“I-I’m okay and A-Angel’s toy c-can wait, l-lets get out of here” Fluttershy said cautiously.

“Agreed” Rarity replied as Tyler comforted Fluttershy.

As the group of five approached the exit they heard cackling and screams of terror as the group noticed several people rushing past with some of them saying that the Shadow Crystal gang was attacking.

“Here seriously?” Rainbow Dash shouted in annoyance as the group rushed out of the building.

“Wait where’s Rarity?” Twilight asked as Tyler realized that the eggshell white unicorn mare was missing.

“Stay here” Tyler told his marefriends before rushing into the building.

"W-wait..." Twilight started in a futile attempt as Tyler was already out of earshot.

"Is it me or did he seem faster?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"I-it did seem like th-that" Fluttershy replied.

Meanwhile Rarity was on the floor rubbing her feat “Oh why did those nasty Shadow Crystal gang have to attack” Rarity complained as she saw a shadow quickly engulf her.

“Oh no” Rarity thought as she looked up to see part of a bridge falling.

Rarity gulped and shut her eyes waiting for the inevitable which never came. Realizing that she wasn’t dead Rarity opened one eye at a time and saw her boyfriend standing over her, holding up the piece of walkway that would surely squash a normal creature “Heh surprised to see me? Or is this like a damsel in distress for you?” Tyler teased as he set the slab down.

“T-Tyler? H-how in the heavens did you hold up that; it had to be at least one tone,” Rarity asked in awe.

Tyler merely shrugged and replied “I don’t know, all I knew was that I had someone to save.”

“W-well anyway thanks dar-ling...” Rarity stammered as she noticed something shining around Tyler along with his hair being lighter in color then normal and his red eye now purple.

“Uh is something wrong?” Tyler asked.

“It’s just...you look different” Rarity replied as she took out her makeup mirror that she always brought and showed her boyfriend’s reflection in the mirror.

“Whoa, my h-hair and eye” Tyler muttered.

“I know right, but for now lets get out of here” Rarity suggested as she put the mirror back in her purse.

“Good point” Tyler replied as picked up Rarity’s heels and handed them to the mare.

“Thanks darling” Rarity replied before quickly putting them back on.

“No pro-”- Tyler started when a person he only vaguely recognized appeared in front of the two -“and where do you think you two are going?” The voice hissed.

“Out of this building, thank you very much” Rarity replied.

“Really? And who said you could leave?” The voice retorted as the speaker stepped into the light, showing that he’s Sombra.

“S-Sombra?” Rarity squeaked as she took a few steps back.

“So you heard of me? Nice to know I still have fans, now then quickly hand over your valuables” Sombra ordered.

“And what if we say no?” Tyler retorted.

“Well then that would be most unfortunate” Sombra replied as a black crystal formed behind the two with what looked to be the point aimed at Rarity’s back.

With a smirk and a snap of his fingers Sombra sent the crystal hurdling to the unicorn mare. Sombra watched as his smirk turned to disbelief upon seeing Tyler punching the crystal out of the air and shattering it.

“You trying to hurt my marefriend?” Tyler asked, now with an angry look as he reclined his arm and looked at Sombra.

“H-huh what?” Rarity asked as she turned around to see the black crystal shards sprawled all over the ground.

With a growl Sombra shot another crystal, this time at Tyler only to see it be forced to a stop by Rarity who now had her hand’s in front of her.

“Sorry Sombra but I’m a Gemmancer” Rarity replied as she forced the crystal back at the ash gray stallion.

“Then I’ll have to take control of your boyfriend” Sombra retorted as his eyes turned green with purple magical essence flowing out, he then widened his eyes as what seemed to be ethereal versions shot out and went straight to their target.

Within a moment Tyler clutched his head as he started feeling dizzy as a voice in his head told him to stop fighting, he however didn’t as he let out some grunts and groans with each passing second. Rarity watched in horror as her boyfriend was thrashing about on the floor.

“Heh he’s tough, most people would have been under my control by now”- Sombra chuckled as Tyler stopped thrashing and stood up with his eyes closed -“oh and it looked like it worked.”

“T-Tyler?...” Rarity asked with a hint of nervousness.

“Worked huh? Think again!” Tyler shouted as he opened his eyes revealing they were not green like one under Sombra’s mind control would be.

“H-how?” Sombra shouted in anger and confusion as his henchmen showed up, bags full of valuables.

“King Sombra sir we need to get going, the cops are almost here!” A griffin explained.

“Fine, lets meet again some time” Sombra replied with a smirk as one of them teleported the gang out of the mall.

“Come, we should probably leave as well” Tyler suggested as his hair and eye seemed to go back to normal.

“O-okay, but are you alright?” Rarity asked as Tyler pulled his marefriend along.

“Heh yea, what about you?” Tyler replied as the two exited the building.

“I’m fine darling, just a little sore” Rarity replied with a slight blush as she rubbed her backside, her tail shook a bit at the somewhat sore butt.

As the two reached the parking lot they noticed their friends rushing to them with worried expressions plastered on.

“Are you two alright?” Twilight managed to ask first.

“Yea, what took so long?” Rainbow Dash added.

“A-and what w-was all t-that grunting a-and groaning?” Fluttershy asked as her face turned a light shade of red.

“Oh no darling it wasn’t what you thought, we just had a little run in with Sombra” Rarity replied nonchalantly.

“S-Sombra? Are any of you hurt?” Twilight frantically asked.

“Well other then a sore behind from falling I’m okay, besides Tyler is the one who I should be thankful for” Rarity replied as she hugged her boyfriend’s arm.

“What do you mean?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“Well you know how when Tyler was in the clinic after the tournament and Twilight was talking about Tyler’s possible Elemancer ability?” Rarity asked.

“I-I remember that, Twilight said that it maybe one from an s-supposed ancestor” Fluttershy replied.

“Why, did something happen?” Twilight asked, her face now of curiosity.

Rarity explained to her friend about what had happened from the time of her almost being crushed by the piece of walkway to just before they left the building.

“Aw man that sounded so cool!”- Rainbow Dash groaned before an idea popped into her head -“say would you be able to go into that form again?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“I don’t think he can, if it’s like his beast form then there has to be some kind of trigger” Twilight replied.

“Well physical I was pretty much the same except for my red eye being purple and my hair being a lighter hue” Tyler added.

“Besides it sounded like it activated when you were in distress” Twilight said as she pointed to the eggshell white unicorn.

“Eheh sorry for making you all worry” Rarity replied with a sheepish smile.

“D-don’t worry a-about it, we’re j-just glad you t-two are safe” Fluttershy responded.

“Yea, besides Sombra sounded like a coward” Rainbow Dash added.

“Lets head back to the school everyone” Twilight suggested and received nods from her friends and boyfriend.

After some giggles at Rarity’s sore behind the group then walked back to the campus they lived on.
