Rainbow Vs Gold

Rainbow continued to walk towards Giorno, each step she took with confidence and power. Seemingly unfazed by the rough landing she just took. Turning back, Giorno thought that escaping already was futile, considering how she just shattered the visible light spectrum with speed.

"And what would you do if I chose to come quietly?" Dash tilts her head up slightly to respond.

"So you can talk, huh? Well, to answer your question, I don't know, the Princess decides. So what's your answer, freak? Hurry the hell up. I don't have all day." she soon stops a good 5 meters away from Giorno, yet her wings held out from her body, and feathers spread even further, making her look much more intimidating.

"Can I guarantee my safety if I were to follow you to see your Princess?"

"No promises." Dash gave a taunting tone that sets Giorno uneaze, it was like she was laughing at the fact that Giorno could even dream of out-running her.

"Than, I refuse."

"Hmph, expected that much." Rainbow disappeared at blinding speeds. She slowed down for a moment in front of Giorno to create an afterimage trying to throw him off but soon picked up her pace again to move behind him and giving a reverse roundhouse kick straight to his face. In a speed that matches her kick, Giorno moved his left arm to block the kick while encasing it in「G.E.R」left's arm as well to absorb the shock. Switching from defense to offense, Giorno grabbed her leg with his left hand, turning his body and encasing his other arm in「G.E.R」. Delivering a devastating punch straight to her chest while shouting,

"MUDA!!"

Rainbow tried blocking the attack with her arms, but she wasn't fast enough, taking the full brunt of life imbued punch. A bassy sound was given off along with the punch, sending her flying backward a reasonable distance and denting her chest plate with the outline and shape of his fist.

"I'll give you only one warning, do not try to fight me." commented Giorno, standing in a confident pose.

Rainbow landed on her side, while the force from the punch continued to drag her body a little further from her landing spot before coming to a stop entirely. As she slowly got back up to her hooves, she could feel her body getting energized, getting stronger, her senses sharpening, and everything around her slowed down to a considerable amount as everything looked to be in slow motion. The colors in the environment get saturated. She looked down at her arms, flexing them a couple of times, feeling life energy coursing through her veins, empowering her. She rotated and warmed up her shoulder before looking back at Giorno.

"Looks like your magic enhances one's strength. What kind of dumbass gives his enemy power? I won't even give you the time to regret what you did!" Bursting with newfound strength and speed, she made a beeline straight towards Giorno, smashing the ground where she once stood in the process, winding up a punch with all her might, grunting out just before striking air.She flew straight into Giorno and phased past him. Looking back in disbelief, she saw Giorno standing there still unharmed as well as herself, yet slowing, getting up from the previous impact. Confused, she did a double-take.

"What?" Surprised at seeing herself occupying two places at once, she turns to see Giorno slowly making his way to her body that was still trying to get up.

"I have to protect myself!" Rainbow tried flying back to defend her body, but it was a useless, feeling a sharp pain directly onto her shoulder. Not long after, her consciousness returned to her body due to her experiencing a kick from Giorno straight to the back of her shoulder, but the pain was significantly amplified. It felt like Rainbow's shoulder was caving inwards and bones shattering, sending shockwaves of burning pain throughout her body. Her muscles and fur tense up as her vision starts to waver and blur.

"GAAAAAH!!" Rainbow screamed in agony, never have experienced such pain before. The only feeling comparable to such anguish was when she lost her wing in combat. Yet compared to that, she couldn't decide what was worse, and a single punch caused all of this to the chest. She slowly tilted her head to face Giorno with difficulty, her neck aching and twitching as she did so.

"W-what did..y-you do to me?"

"Don't worry. You won't die. It's just your pain receptors going haywire. You did not suffer that much damage." Giorno said calmly, giving a pitiful look to Rainbow.

Powering through the pain, Rainbow angled her prosthetic wing blades and shot it directly to Giorno's torso. Moving on its own accord,「G.E.R」's arm manifested itself and grabbed the bladed wing using its hand. Applying enough force to dent the metal but not crush it entirely.

"I suggest you not to move. Your body is in a lot of pain and-" Rainbow jumped back to her hooves, she staggers a little,

"SHUT UP!"

She tried swinging at him with a hidden blade concealed beneath her armor on her forearm, but it was pointless as「G.E.R」once again intervene, summoning its other arm to grab her fist with its hand. Extending the blade even further, it only managed to reach an inch away from his face before reaching its limit, yet Giorno was unfazed by this, looking directly at her visor with no amusement present on his face. Rainbow's arm was shaking from the force she was applying, trying to push the blade further into his face, but with 「G.E.R」matching her strength equally, she wasn't allowed to bring it closer.

Moving back, Giorno dissipated both of「G.E.R」's arm, causing her to lose her balance since she was practically leaning her body weight into the attack. Falling forward, she didn't have the strength to catch herself anymore. Giorno caught her with his arm before she could reach the ground. Looking up, Giorno still looked back with pity.

"I wasn't saying it for my sake. It was for yours." Kneeing her gut with「G.E.R」, she coughed up blood through her mesh-mouth guard and dropped straight to the floor, still struggling to get up, her arms shaking, her wings drooping to the ground and panting heavily, she faded in and out of consciousness, crouching down Giorno stared straight into Dash's eyes through her visor.

"Because the moment my fist made contact with you, all your actions thereafter were pointless, and your chances of winning were practically zero." Rainbow looked pathetic, but Giorno was rather impressed that she was still hanging on.

"You w-won't get away-" coughing up more blood, she finally lost consciousness. Giorno stood up, looking around at the damage to the field.

"'Princess' huh? so it is a monarchy-style system, unlike the ones I met earlier in the factory-barn, this one have wings, well used to have wings, This world is quite bizarre." Talking to himself, Giorno inspected the unconscious Liuetnant. She armoured from head to down to her legs, a lot of padding and armour covered her so Giorno couldn't tell that Rainbow was a she. However, he did notice the bright rainbow colored tail.

But before Giorno could contemplate on where to go from here, he heard the sound of fighter jet engines from above. Looking up, he could see the reinforcements already coming in. Giorno counted three of them, one of which tried to dive-bomb kick Giorno, which was unsuccessful due to「G.E.R」instinctively activating and summoning both of its arms to block the attack. Recoiling back and flying a safe distance backward, Giorno noticed the other two checking on the unconscious Lieutenant lying on the ground.

"Lieutenant!" a noticeable deep and worried tone came from the bigger figure.

"She needs medical attention!" came a feminine voice with the smaller frame.

"So it's a She?" thinking to himself, Giorno hated the fact that he had to hurt a girl, but there was no other choice he could take.

"Listen, I did not want to harm her. I did not choose to intentionally-" Giorno tried to reason with the ponies but was cut off by a very angry male pegasus.

"Silence, you fiend!"

The one that had previously dive-bomb Giorno soon launched himself back at him. Picking up momentem, it flew at great speeds but not as fast as the Lieutenant he fought earlier, he leaned back and used his hoof to act as like the nose of a bullet, he charged at him. Giorno pivots the balls of his feet and his body to dodge. Just as the diving Wonderbolt flew past him, Giorno uses「G.E.R」and caught him by the collar, slamming him straight to the ground, which caused the surrounding earth to split and break into chunks of different sizes, some of the said chunks and debris flew from the ground and away from the epicenter of the impact, creating a crater in the ground, in which the male Wonderbolt that had previously attacked Giorno was lying in. Motionless.

This display of strength caused the other two remaining reinforcement to back paddle away from Giorno in fear, now having a crystal-diamond aura flaring around him, one of the Wonderbolt hastily carried the unconscious Lieutenant, whispering something to his ally before quickly taking off in the direction they came from, the female stayed.

"Surrender! we already have informed the Princess about your presence! you can't hope to escape now!" Giving her no mind, Giorno knelt to the motionless stallion in the crater, hovering the hand of「G.E.R」above the downed pegasus.

"DON'T DO ANYTHING TO MY TEAMMATE YOU-" Cutting her off, Giorno looked back with annoyance.

"Can you please be more civil? I'm not going to hurt him. In fact, I'm going to do the opposite."

"And why should I trust a monster like you?"

"Because do you really think you could stop me if you wanted to?" he said monotoniously, staring back at her. Sending chills down her spine.

"How can this thing be so intimidating yet so relaxed at the same time? His presence is similar to that of the Princesses." thinking to herself, she continues to observe Giorno cautionsly.

The standing pegasus realized that whatever she is talking to just took out Lieutenant and a veteran Wonderbolt without breaking a sweat, choosing to step down, if she were to attack, she would only increase the number of bodies needed to bring back to base. Deep down, however, she was praying that her comrade wouldn't be harmed. Soon enough, a golden light shined from where Giorno had placed his hand on. It continues to shine for a couple of seconds before subsiding. The Mare walked over at a quick pace, but once she saw her fallen comrade groaning in pain, she dashed over to his side, inspecting his condition. It didn't seem any better than before other than he wasn't motionless anymore.

"You'd say you'll heal him! he still has broken wings and a dislocated shoulder!"

"I did heal him, but I did not say to what extent. I healed his shattered spine and replaced his broken blood vessels with new ones, plus what would I do if he woke up and start attacking me again? that being said, you don't have to worry. He'll at least live to see another day." Giorno walked away, creating distance between himself and the mare kneeling in front of the downed ally, looking over his injuries again before turning to face Giorno.

"You, Bastard.."

"Please, can't you lot be more civilized?" the non-chalentness is Giorno's voice popped a blood vessel in the mare.

"You knocked the Lieutenant out cold and almost killed my friend you piece of shit!"

"I acted in self-defense. Your Lieutenant engaged me first without really giving me a choice in the matter, while your friend lying in the crater also attacked me without hearing what I had to say. I even healed him enough so he wouldn't die. You should be grateful."

"Then what are you? and what are you doing here?"

"I don't know. I was in the middle of going about with my day when a huge white portal opened on the floor and dragged me in." Giorno lied effortlessly. He couldn't afford to tell them the true reason why he was here in the first place. Turning to face the sky, he continued.

"I just happened to fall from the sky and wandered around until I happened across the barn, and well, the rest, you could probably tell what happened."

"So, what? are you like some undiscovered species?" Giorno turned back to face the mare; her visor covering her eyes was reflecting his reflection.

"No, I'm from another world."

"Another world? This isn't the time to joke around."

"I'm not joking." He deadpanned.

"So, you're like an a-alien?!"

"Yes, you can consider me an alien." Surprised, she stumbles back a little.

"Are you gonna lay your eggs inside of my stomach?! please don't I still have so much to live for!" clasping both her hands together in a fist, she started to beg.

"No, I'm-''

"Please! Equestria is my home! I'll give you anything! Anything you want! please don't destroy my world!" Bowing her head to Giorno, he just stood there. Stunned.

"Listen, I'm not the kind to enslave others or lay eggs in your stomach or anything like that. I want to find a way back-"

Before he could finish, a blinding white flash of light covered Giorno and the begging Wonderbolt, using his arms to shield his eyes from the light. When he reopened his eyes, he saw a large female in white, dawning regal gold armor and a huge golden battle-ax, with a large white horn atop her head and an enormous pair of white wings attached to her back. While her hair looks to be colored in 4 different colors and being blown by a non-existent breeze with a symbol of the sun engraved into the gold chest plate that she's wearing, then came a booming voice from the Princess.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MY SUBJECTS!?"

"What? Subjects? Is this the princess? and what does she mean by what am I doing?" Turning back to look at the Wonderbolts to understand the situation, one was laying in a crater groaning in pain while the other was on her knees in a begging position.

"Oh."

Extending her arm and opening her palm, Celestia cast a teleportation spell and teleported both Wonderbolts to her side. After ensuring they were safe, she lifted her gigantic battle-ax towards Giorno, scowling at him.

"What are your intentions here, creature?" a yellow light started to shine at the tip of the eye of her battle-ax.

"I won't ask again."

"I don't know what you're talking about. I don't even know where I am. I got dragged into this world."

"Do not lie to me, creature!"Celestia jabbed her battle-ax towards Giorno to emphasize her statement, looking around at the collateral damage caused by the creature in front of her and her lieutenant's squadron. Turning back to Giorno, she stares angrily.

"I felt a being forcing its way through the portal. Are you in any way associated with a creature in blue, has long ears and pink line markings across its body?"

"I know who you're talking about, but no, I'm not associated with him. As a matter of fact, I'm looking for him. And did you mention a portal?"

"Yes, you were brought here by a student of mine and myself."

"What?!"

"Yes, it seems like the experiment did go south. After all, bringing a creature of pure hostility and power to our world is too dangerous. Believe me when I say this creature, if you follow me back to my castle, I promise to send you back home."

"I wasn't trying to attack your people actively. I did it in self-defense. Both with your Lieutenant and your cadet on the ground over there," Giorno pointed over to the still groaning stallion on the ground, which Celestia turns to the pegasus mare.

"What? Is this true?" facing to the two on the ground next to her waiting for an answer.
.
.
.
.
"Y-yes, your highness..." With that, Celestia lowered her battle-ax and turns back to Giorno with a relaxed but still somewhat tense look on her face.

"My apologies on behalf of my forces suddenly attacking you but is it necessary to injure them to such an extent? "

"I wasn't given a choice when your Lieutenant came to attack at full force, and her reinforcements did the same." Celestia looked over to the village. A small breeze started to blow over the grassy field once again, sighing to herself.

"My Lieutenant can be very.. headstrong, but she means well." Giorno thought back to his brawl with Dash, recalling how she tried to attack him even if it was pointless.

"Yea...Headstrong."

"But let us take our conversation somewhere else with a better environment." looking around at the chucks of holes, debris, and dirt all over the place. Giorno looked at the Princess with an affirmative nod and gesturing her to lead the way.

"But before that, I need to go calm the denizens of Ponyville first. Please don't go wandering anywhere while I'm gone." Her horn started to glow a faint golden aura before she disappears, walking over to the two ponies on the ground. Giorno took a seat next to them as he looked over to Ponyville.

"You know, so far being on this new planet, your Princess has been the most civilized of your people that I have met so far. Is she usually like this?"The mare look at her resting ally before turning to face Ponyville.

"Her Royal Highness has always been the most courteous of mares, even in these desperate times and finding you, she always tries to find peace in all conflicts and never really resorted to violence unless she had no other choice." Giorno turned to her with an inquisitive look.

"Desperate times? what do you mean by that?" The mare chuckled to herself at his response.

"Oh, yeah, I forgot you're an alien and all that, what I meant was we're in a war with another empire. Specifically The Crystal Empire."

"That sort of makes sense now." placing his index finger and thumb to support his chin.

"How everything looks barren, how the resident at the barn wore military clothing, how prepared they were, and how they reacted when I showed up on their door front."Giorno Turns to face the mare and stared at her intently, he continues to question her.

"So, what happened? What started the war?"

"I think it's best if you ask The Princess about that. I'm just a trooper fighting for my home. If you want detailed answers, she could answer all of your questions." She gestured to the Princess standing behind Giorno, which caught him off guard and surprised him a little.

"Alright, I've managed to diffuse the situation in Ponyville. Are we ready to leave?"

"That was rather quick of you." Giorno replied.

"Comes with the many advantages of being tall."Celestia joked, placing her hand on her hip.

"Wait, where are we going?" he inquired,

"Back to my home, Canterlot, the Capital of Equestria," Celestia replied with a smile.

"And how'll we be getting to Canterlot? A carriage?"

"Yes, you're right, we will be traveling via carriage."

And just as she said that, a carriage could be seen flying down towards where Celestia, Giorno, and the two Wonderbolts are located. With two pegasuses in the front dragging the whole weight of the carriage on their backs. As soon as they landed the carriage a couple of meters away from the group, one of the flyers quickly undid his belts and wing straps, hastily jogging over to open the carriage door. The princess walked over to the still resting and wounded pony on the ground. Reaching his side, she raised her hand above his body and teleported him inside the carriage. With another wave of her hand, the debris and surrounding dirt and rocks began to float and fly into the holes in the ground restoring the decimated battlefield into the previous, more recognizable grassy fields.

"I had teleported him into the carriage and restored the lands to a state where before it was destroyed. Let's get moving. That includes you too, Wonderbolt." Walking over to the carriage, the two pegasuses bowed to the Princess of the sun while she entered with the mare close behind. And of course, the guard blocked the path when Giorno tried to step up the stairs.

"At ease guard, he's with me." Celestia's voice echoed out. The guard lowered his arm as commanded, which allowed Giorno to walk through, stepping into the carriage. The interior design was a clean white, with a nice and luxurious purple double seat built onto the side of the walls, the princess seated on the right, taking up half of the actual seat itself with the injured stallion laying next to her already sound asleep. On the opposite is where the mare was seated though she looked nervous and restless. Taking a seat next to the mare, he nodded in confirmation to Celestia.

"Alright, guards, we may leave."

"Yes, Princess!" shouted one of the pegasuses with confidence in his voice.

"Next destination, Canterlot!"
