Chapter 24: The Ultimate Showdown

Within a matter of moments, everyone arrived at Equestria, with the humans, even Sunset and Silverbolt, remaining as humans. They all looked around and wondered where they were.

“Alright, we’re here.” Said Silverbolt.

“Where are we?” asked Princess Twilight whilst she was looking around.

“First thing’s first.” Said Silverbolt before he snapped his fingers, and within a split second, Celestia, Luna, Discord, Shining Armor, Cadance, and the Pillars of Equestria were suddenly teleported, which also surprised them at the same time.

“What the…?” said Shining Armor as he was confused by what was going on.

“Where…?” said Cadence, just as equally confused.

They then noticed Silverbolt and the others there.

“Twilight?” said Princess Celestia as she and the others were confused. “What are we doing here?”

“That’s what I’d like to know.” Said Sunset before she and the others turned to Silverbolt.

“This is the Nexus.” Said Silverbolt, “It’s among the great plains. Called the deadlands.”

“The deadlands?!” exclaimed the Equestrians and inhabitants beyond Equestria’s borders.

“But I thought it was forbidden to come here!!” exclaimed Princess Celestia.

“You said so yourself!!” said Starswirl the Bearded.

“Back when I couldn’t remember, yeah.” Said Silverbolt. “When I wanted to explore this place, something felt off. Back then I thought it was something dangerous. But right now…it’s our old stomping ground.”

“Old stomping ground?” said Rockhoof in confusion.

“In other words,” said Silverbolt before turning to them and said “The very same place where we stood when we created this world and the alternate earth.”

Everyone was shocked by that revelation, until they suddenly heard more noises, making them look at the other direction.

To their surprise, they saw Prince Thorax and Pharynx, Prince Rutherford, Dragon Lord Ember, Grandpa Gruff, Queen Novo, Admiral Sky beak, Autumn Blaze, Rain Shine, and a few of their escorts that came with them.

“Every creature?” said Princess Celestia surprised, “What are all of you doing here?”

“Yak was busy with village, minding business,” said Rutherford, “Before knew it, felt a pull and went here.”

“Same with me.” Said Dragon Lord Ember, “What’s all this about?”

“Indeed.” Said Queen Novo, then noticed the humans and were surprised. “And what are they?”

“Humans from another world.” Said Silverbolt as he took a step forward before turning to his Alicorn form. “They came a long way to stop a monster on the rise. A monster who will stop at nothing until everything falls into silence and darkness.”

“Why would it do that?” asked Sky Beak.

“Walk with me, and I’ll explain.” Said Silverbolt as he walked ahead, with everyone else following.

***************************************************************************************************

Everyone continued to follow Silverbolt towards where he was going, whilst everyone was feeling that pull at the same time. But they chose to focus on him.

“Long ago, we created this world.” Said Silverbolt, “Each of us had used the power of our instruments to help create the land, air, forest, and sea. Each of us even had tried to create many creatures here, and that’s all of you.”

“Really?” said a surprised Dragon Lord Ember.

“We taught the dragons how to breathe fire and fly, we had to teach the Yaks how to be strong, we had to teach the Hippogriffs how to fly and make their cry sound, as well as taught them how to turn them into sea ponies, whilst the sea ponies were also taught on how to swim. We taught the changelings how to change their forms. We taught the Pegasi how to fly and control the weather, we taught the Unicorns how to use their magic. And the Earth Ponies…well, they also have powerful magic inside of them.”

“We do?” said a surprised pony Applejack as she and Pinkie looked at him.

“You do.” Said Silverbolt, “Your kind would have the ability to grow everything at a fastening pace. Where the magic flows through the horn of the unicorn and the wings of the Pegasus, your magic would flow through your front hooves in order to grow them fast.”

The Equestrians were amazed by the revelation.

“Wait, if they did, how come they don’t have it now?” asked a confused Spike.

“Because the magic inside them is still potent, locked deep inside of them.” Said Silverbolt, “When the three pony tribes came to be, each of them took a long time to master everything.”

“He’s got a point.” Said Fast Track, “When the Unicorns came to be, they had little magic, but all they could do was use their magic to guide those where they need to go. However, overtime, it took them hundreds of years to master new spells and magic that none had ever seen before. And in time, it became what it is today.”

“Same with the Pegasi.” Said Velvet Heart, “When they gained wings, all they could do was fly at the normal speed of a bird. But overtime, they continued to build up their speeds in order for them to go faster, and even soon master on controlling the weather so that they could help water the plant life on the ground. But as some did that, a few Pegasi continued to try to build up their speed. And only a lucky few could fly with the same speed as Rainbow Dash.”

“The Earth Ponies on the other hand are different.” Said Summer Breeze, “When they started out, they build everything out of their own mouths and hooves with the sweat of their brows and the strength of their backs. At first, they built buildings. And seeing their hard work, they eventually slowly developed to gain magic to help grow their crops. So, whilst they use their tools, the magic from their hooves themselves transfer to the ground in order to make it grow faster. And it shows…from that very day that a certain mare had planted the Zap Apples and whose families continued to grow on different farms.”

“Wait, y’all are talkin’ about mah granny.” Said pony Applejack surprised.

“That’s what I saw.” Said Silverbolt, “I used my magic to look into the future, but as for other events, they weren’t that much clear. Harmony itself knows much, but when it comes to sharing what dangers might arise, they tend to be the secretive type.”

“So, you guys were sort of in the dark when Dark Void attacked you whilst you were creating out world.” Said Princess Twilight.

“Just like you were in the dark of all the threats that came to Equestria over the centuries.” Said Princess Celestia.

“That’s right.” Said Silverbolt, then looked ahead before stopping. “We’re here.”

Everyone looked ahead and to their surprise, saw seven large statues up ahead. They walked towards them until they had reached their destination. They saw seven statues of Silverbolt and the others’ god forms, whilst right below, were seven different pedestals, each that shows what instrument they play.

“So, what’s the purpose of those pedestals?” asked Gallus.

“Each of them houses where each stem would go.” Said Silverbolt, “And once combined, the stems merge into one, and because of it, they have the ability to create a single stem, that creates the most powerful song. So powerful, it can stop Dark Void.”

“The song is that powerful?” asked Shining Armor.

“Well, there’s also another song.” Said Fast Track, “But that song is known as the song of creation. The strongest of them all. But we realized if a song like that can create worlds, it can also destroy them in the wrong hands.”

Everyone was shocked to hear that.

“But we made a vow to never sing it, unless it’s for a special occasion, or if the prophecy is fulfilled.” Said Dusk Light.

“Prophecy?” said the confused Mane 6 and Rainbooms.

Suddenly, everything eerie grew around them, with Silverbolt and his bandmates standing in a row and spoke in an eerie tone at the same time.

“When the day and night shines no more. And the glory of the kingdoms and their lands have fallen. Only then will the song of life be heard again.”

Everyone was suddenly freaked out by the way they spoke it.

“Okay, now that’s creepy.” Said Ember nervously.

“You can say that again.” Said Smolder.

“This specific song we have in mind can counter Dark Void’s.” said Velvet Heart.

“We wanted to use it, but he had the drop on us.” Said Platinum.

“But now here’s hoping we can do what we can in time before anything else will happen.” Said Summer Breeze.

“Then we’d better get a move on, before things go sideways.” Said Princess Celestia.

“Agreed.” Said Princess Luna, “We do not have a moment to lose.”

One by one, Silverbolt and his bandmates moved towards their respective statues, whilst looking up at them at the same time.

“Never thought we’d do this again after all this time.” Said Summer Breeze.

“We knew it was going to happen again someday.” Said Silverbolt as he looked at his bandmates. “Let’s do this.”

Silverbolt was the first to raise his stem and said “The time has come. To finish what we started.”

Each of them walked over towards the statue of their instruments whilst holding the stems.

“The drums.” Said Rhythm Beat as he placed his stem inside the hole of the statue. Causing it to glow as a light shined on the ground, moving towards the center.

One by one, the band members placed them inside.

“The Keytar.” Said Platinum.

“The Bass.” Said Summer Breeze.

“The Electric.” Said Dusk Light.

“The Rhythm.” Said Velvet Heart.

“The Lead Guitar.” Said Fast Track.

“The unity.” Said Silverbolt.

Each of the beams began to go together, causing them to move towards the center of the pedestal as the stems had moved towards the center. At the same time, every creature and the Rainbooms watched with eagerness as they wanted to see how it works.

“Now we shall combine the stems into…”

Suddenly, and electric shocked had washed over to Silverbolt’s bandmates whilst the screamed of pain, shocking him as well as the others, whilst they were violently thrusted aside and crashed behind the statues of their instruments.

“Guys!!” exclaimed the Rainbooms.

Suddenly, Silverbolt felt a chill. He slowly turned around and saw the one being that he knew could do this. He squinted his eyes into anger.

“Void.”

Silverbolt slowly turned around and there in his glory, stood Void with his hands gripped and looking at Silverbolt. Everyone saw Void and was shocked to see the being that Silverbolt talked about.

“My, my. How the mighty have fallen.” Said Void, “From a rock legend to a mere pony. It has been a long time, William.”

“I got by Silverbolt, now.” Said Silverbolt.

“Choosing to adopt a name for a horse now, are we?” said Dark Void rhetorically.

“Still choosing to be a pawn for evil now, are we?” countered Silverbolt.

“I merely chose a path that was meant for me.” Said Void.

“Neil, I know why you’re here.” Said Silverbolt, “But don’t do this. We swore an oath, remember? Of what we promised the great beings?”

“There’s a difference between me and you, Silverbolt.” Said Dark Void as he secretly did something with his right fist. “Where you chose to be an obedient drone…”

Dark Void instantly darted over and grabbed Silverbolt by the throat and lifts him up, which shocks the others.

“I choose to be a rebel. And a rule breaker.”

Dark Void instantly extends his hand, causing large holographic screens to appear. Suddenly, from all over Equestria, and all over the human world, screens began to appear, gaining everyone’s attention as they looked up the sky. Everyone from Ponyville and beyond Equestria, along with Canterlot City and beyond as everyone watched.

“People of Equestria and the human world.” Declared Dark Void. “Hear me now. I am Dark Void, conqueror of all and destroyer of all. I broadcast this to everyone from both worlds, to let them know the true wrath of darkness.”

“Oh, no.” said Princess Celestia, “He’s contacting everyone from both worlds.”

“But that means Dark Void is breaking the balance!!” exclaimed Princess Twilight.

“Look before your so-called protectors.” Said Dark Void as he presented Silverbolt, the Mane 6 and the Rainbooms. “They are nothing more but mere horses and children, playing pretend in an adult’s game. And soon, all will fall before me as my power will grow tenfold. Starting with this one.”

Dark Void unleashed his power and blasted Silverbolt back as he crashed with his fellow bandmates.

“Silverbolt!!” exclaimed Princess Twilight and Sunset.

“So, little heroes.” Said Dark Void as he moved closer to them and held his bladed spear. “Let us see what all of you are capable of.”

Within a split second, he summoned his army as they had them surrounded. Not just the handful of Black Dragons that were still standing, but many other forms of monsters and what appeared to be robots.

“Make your move.” He threatened.

“Everyone, focus on his minions!!” said Princess Twilight before glaring at Dark Void. “I’ll handle him.”

“Not without us you’re not.” Said Rainbow Dash as she and the rest of the Mane 5 regrouped with her.

“Same with us.” Said Sunset as she and the Rainbooms also united.

“As will we.” Said Princess Celestia and Princess Luna.

“Attack!!” shouted the leaders as all of them charged.

As the air creatures, namely Dragon Lord Ember, Queen Novo, General Sky beak, Gilda, Pharynx and many of the Dragons, Hippogriffs, Griffons and half the Changelings attacked, Prince Rutherford, Thorax, Shining Armor, Cadance, and many of the Yaks, half the Changelings, Crystal Ponies and other ponies attacked on the ground

At the same time, the Mane 6, the Rainbooms, Celestia, Luna, the Pillars, the Young Six, Starlight and the Dazzlings attacked Dark Void head on.

As they were close, Dark Void slammed his fist onto the ground, sending a large shockwave that caused them to dodge, whilst Yona and Sandbar were knocked back hard and had crashed against the stone wall.

Everyone fought against him on all sides. Though some were able to get some punches, and some were able to get some magical strikes, he had proved to be a stronger opponent.

Rockhoof and Mage attacked from above as one tried to Dark Void with a shovel, but dodged it, as well as blocked Mage Meadowbrook’s potion attacks with her potions. Both tried to get past his defense, but he easily punched them away. At the same time, the magic users, aka, Celestia, Luna, and Princess Twilight, whilst carrying pony Rarity, Starlight and Starswirl, were firing their magic beams at full strength whilst he shielded himself from it.

At the same time, it allowed Rainbow Dash, Pony Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, pony Fluttershy, Sunset and Twilight to fly in and deliver some strong punches and kicks.

From the ground charging, Applejack, pony Applejack, Gallus, Smolder and Ocellus, who transformed into a Manticore, charged straight towards Dark Void, who braced himself and caught them before they could do anymore damage. He pushed them back, whilst grabbing Ocellus by the tail and smacked her around constantly, before using her to throw against Smolder and Gallus, who crashed against another pillar and were unconscious, whilst Ocellus transformed back to her Changeling form.

Rainbow Dash and her pony counterpart charged at Dark Void, only for the latter to grab both of them by the throats, bashed their heads and tossed them away.

At the same time, Starswirl, Starlight, Mistmane and pony Rarity were back on the ground and shot a full blast of magic at Dark Void, only for him to pull out his signature weapon and slammed the blade onto the ground, causing the beam to be split in two, taking down a few random pillars. Dark Void then teleported behind them and shot his own magic beam at the four, causing the four of them to be flung backwards and crashed near where the downed Young Six was.

At the same time, pony Applejack and her counterpart were able to deliver a few strong bucks and punches, whilst Princess Twilight, Celestia, Luna and Cadence fired their magic beams, causing Dark void to block them.

Twilight appeared and used her magic to fire a few rocks at him, which he caught and launched them back, causing pony Pinkie Pie, pony Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy to be hit as they crashed onto the ground.

Flash Magnus appeared and kept trying to bash his shield against him, with Somnambula and Silverstream moving in for the strike, but the both of them had been repelled back by Dark Void’s shockwave, making them crash near Starswirl as he and a few others struggled to get up.

Pony Applejack caught Void’s arm using her lasso and pulled it, with Applejack trying to help, whilst at the same time, Sunset, Twilight, Celestia, Luna and Cadence tried to strike all around, until Dark Void pulled onto the lasso, causing the two of them to be pulled towards him, making him punch the two of them as they landed near their Rainboom and Mane companions.

The remaining ones continued to fight, but Dark Void overpowered them and got them together in one group. Dark Void powered his fist to punch them hard, but Rarity came in and used her geode shields to block it. Though the shield took the worst of it, the punch sent them flying and landed near the others.

The ones who fought Dark Void looked at him whilst he stared at them back.

“He is truly a powerful being.” Said Princess Luna.

“How could we possibly stop him?” said Princess Celestia in worry.

“It is over, little heroes.” Said Dark Void as he walked over to the stems.

One by one, he picked them and held them together.

“This was supposed to fight me?” said Dark Void rhetorically. “Pathetic.”

He then looked like he was crushing them, and a mighty big flash appeared, causing everyone to block their eyes, even the ones who fought the minions, who had been defeated, watched in shock as they saw what happened. When he turned around, he saw the stems had been fused into one.

“Impossible!!” exclaimed Queen Novo.

“How was he able to merge them?!” exclaimed Thorax.

“Is it not obvious, little bug.” Said Dark Void. “I was once one of them.”

“What are you talking about?” said Princess Ember.

Celestia turned to the other creatures, as well as those watching from both worlds, and said “Dark Void used to be part of their band of Silverbolt’s before Dusk Light.”

Everyone was shocked to hear this.

“That’s right.” Said Dark Void, “I was once known as Neil Adams, Electric guitarist of the group. And our music together, was truly legendary.”

****************************************************************************************************

I witnessed every world that our music created. And realized the power they held.

The lot of them then stopped playing as Silverbolt said “Let’s take five.”

“We can’t,” said Void, “We have to keep playing. Our music is power.”

“Power?” said a confused Silverbolt.

“What are you talking about?” said Fast Track, “We’re musicians, we don’t crave or play for power.”

“We play for the people.” Said Rhythm Beat.

“But we can become gods here.” Said Void, “We can rule these worlds.”

“Are you nuts man?!” said Summer Breeze as he was shocked by what he was suggesting.

“Yeah,” said Platinum, “We didn’t create these worlds to control people!!”

Velvet Heat then placed his hand on Void’s shoulder, trying to calm him and said “We do it, to set them free.”

After I left, the beings stripped me of my power, and banished me to the beyond. But during that time, I had lived in solitude, deep within the mountains, that we had captured and stored the greatest and most powerful of all evils that could rival the power of harmony itself. Without music and harmony, for eons.

And during that time, it was there, I had discovered the true power of darkness and silence and chaos and disharmony.

Void had begun to energize himself with the power and became evil incarnate. Moments later, he was met with over hundreds of thousands of armies, all evil and under his command.

I gathered and army. Together, our power was truly unstoppable. We attacked the fellow titans that the gods of music had created. And though even after my temporary imprisonment, we have continued to destroy everyone and everything from other worlds, as well as many, who would dare to oppose me.

****************************************************************************************************

Everyone was shocked and horrified by what Dark Void had done.

“You monster!!” shouted Sunset Shimmer.

“How could you betray your friends and everything you stand for?!” cried Twilight incredulously.

“It is over, heroes.” Said Dark Void as he raised the stem in the air. “Now it’s time to end it.”

Within a mere moment he crushed it, causing it to crack, sending a massive shockwave, draining all the colors and harmony away from both worlds, shocking everyone by what they were seeing.

Soon enough, the stem was nothing more than a cracked orb, allowing Dark Void to drop it onto the ground.

“No!!!” exclaimed the Mane 6 and Rainbooms whilst everyone else was horrified by what had just happened.

“I have done it.” Said Dark Void. “I have rid the world of its music and all related to harmony!!”

He laughed maniacally as dark storms began to appear, causing it to spread all over Equestria and their neighboring kingdoms. “Watch, as your kingdoms fall.”

The inhabitants watched as everything around them was turning into an apocalyptic nightmare as many residents were running for cover. Forests were burning, grounds were cracking, fires were spreading, rivers and oceans were drying, and to their horror, the sun and moon above the skies were shattered whilst Dark Void grew into a giant as his powers began to increase.

He hovered above them as he said “Once I am done with this world, the pathetic Rainbooms’ world is next!!”

“What are we going to do?!” exclaimed Fluttershy.

“I don’t know.” Said Princess Twilight as she saw the devastation on their world.

“We need a miracle.” Said Sunset as she was deathly terrified of what would happen to the alternate Equestria.

Suddenly, in a great big flash, the Rainbooms and the beaten Mane 6 look back, whilst everyone else, who had been exhausted from the fight, looked behind them. And saw appearing one by one, holding their instruments, Were Velvet Heart, wielding his rhythm guitar. Rhythm Beat, wielding his drumsticks. Summer Breeze, wielding his Bass guitar. Platinum, wielding his Keytar. Fast Track, wielding his lead Guitar. Dusk Light, bearing his electric guitar. And finally, Silverbolt, wielding his special guitar. All of them, standing tall in their powerful forms.

“Guys!!” exclaimed the girls as they were happy to see they were alright.

“No, impossible!!” said Dark Void, “I destroyed your music and all related to Harmony!!”

“We. Are. Music!!” said Rhythm Beat.

“We. Are. Harmony!!” said Platinum.

“And both of them can never be destroyed!!” said Fast Track.

“Neil!!” shouted Silverbolt, “You’ve gotta stop this, now!!”

“Never.” Said Ultra Void. “And Neil, no longer exists. For I, am now Ultra Void. And with the power I wield. I will ensure that this world is nothing but silence, and darkness. And once I am done, every world out there shall feel my wrath.”

“But all of us, even you, created every world, this one and their human counterpart’s world, together!!” said Velvet Heart.

“These worlds are our home as much as everyone else, is!!” said Summer Breeze.

“Worlds, where I have been forced to live, as an insect!!” shouted Ultra Void, “When I should’ve been, a god all along. And everyone will soon serve me, or all will perish!!”

“It’s no use, he won’t listen to reason anymore!!” said Dusk Light.

“Then we need to rock, and we need to rock hard!!” said Fast Track, “It’s the only way to take him down!!”

“Agreed.” Growled Silverbolt, as he knew he should’ve done this a long time ago.

He extended his hand and pulled the broken Stem to him, allowing him to catch it. As he held it close, the rest of his band joined in and held it together. Within a split second, it began to glow super bright, allowing it to engulf everyone in a blinding light. Within mere moments, every color had been restored as well as some things being alive.

Everyone was surprised by this.

“Whoa, they absorbed the song!!” exclaimed Pinkie Pie.

“No,” muttered Ultra Void, “It is impossible!!”

“As we said,” said Rhythm Beat, “Music can’t be destroyed!!”

“It can only create something new!!” said Silverbolt, who then suddenly had a plan, and looked at the Rainbooms. “Something new.”

Silverbolt walked over to the Rainbooms, with the rest of his band behind him. He stood in front of Sunset, with the latter wondering what he had in mind.

“Normally this would be the first time in history that we ever do this.” Said Silverbolt as he held onto Sunset’s hands, which confused her. “The moment when you girls played your music together, both the power of Music, and Harmony, have flowed through all of you, more strongly than we could ever imagine. But if things were different, the power you have, could rival ours in every way. And now is the time.”

Silverbolt stood on his knees as he asked the girls.

“Rainbooms,” said Silverbolt, “Music group of Canterlot High and representatives of the powers of Harmony itself. So, for the first time…will you do the honor to rock with us. After all, every god, needs a goddess.”

The Rainbooms were surprised by what they were asking. They were asking them to rock beside them, whilst also bearing the power of harmony like they do. Sunset looked at the girls, as each of them had determined looks. Sunset ended up having one too as she looked with a smirk.

“We’re in.” said Sunset as Silverbolt stood up whilst the guys went to their respective ladies and held onto their hands too.

“Just what we wanted to hear.” Said Silverbolt.

Within a split second, they began to put some of their power into the Rainbooms, causing them to glow brightly and brighter than the shining star of the night sky. Within a split second, the Rainbooms wore their outfits during their pony-ups were a combination between the ones they wore at Camp Everfree, and the ones that they wore when they first fought Wallflower.

Whilst at the same time, their hair was flowing just like Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. And their instruments were just like Silverbolt and the others’ instruments. The Rainbooms were greatly surprised by their outfits and instruments.

“Now then,” said Silverbolt as he and the others summoned their instruments, “Are you girls ready to rock?”

They did the same thing with smirks as they said “Oh, yeah.”

At the same time, Ultra Void was towering over the Mane 6, the Young Six and the Pillars. All of them struggled to get up as they really want to stay in the fight.

“Any last words?” said Ultra Void as he charged up his fists.

“Yo, Ultra Void!!” shouted Silverbolt.

The latter looked up and was shocked by what he was seeing. For the Rainbooms were now charged up with the same energy as Silverbolt and the others were.

“No. Impossible!!” shouted Ultra Void.

“Time to show you, what we’re really made of.” Said Silverbolt as he and his band stood in position, with the Rainbooms being right beside their boyfriends.

“One. Two. One, two, three four!!” shouted both Rhythm Beat and Pinkie Pie.

Within a split second, all of them played the song together whilst being charged up with energy. At the same time, the energy began to slowly go towards the Mane 6, the Pillars and the Young Six.

“The last song, they’re playing it.” Said Adagio as they looked at what was going on.

At the same time, the powers of Harmony began to flow through them, which shocked them whilst they were floating in the air.

“What’s going on?!” said Princess Twilight before they were engulfed in the light.

(Silverbolt)

There’s hope

You’ll see

(Sunset Shimmer)

Stay strong

Hold on tight

Within a split second, the Equestrians were surprised that they transformed. The transformation the Mane 6 had were the same as they had when they beat Tirek, whilst the others also had the same transformation. Whilst they were amazed by what they were seeing.

“Whoa, awesome!!” exclaimed pony Rainbow Dash.

“It’s over, Ultra Void!!” said Princess Twilight.

“You shall not take this world!!” said Starswirl the Bearded

“You are no match for me!!” said Ultra Void as he blasted them away, making them crash onto the ground. However, all of them instantly got back up with their own glares.

(Dusk Light)

In time

Someplace

(Twilight)

There’s a truth

Shining bright

“Is that the best you got, ya beast!!” shouted Rockhoof.

“You’re going down, you monster!!” shouted pony Rarity before all of them charged towards Ultra Void.

Everyone charged towards Ultra Void as they tackled him away from the Rainbooms and everyone else whilst all of them watched, with many spectators from two worlds.

(Rainbow & Fast Track)

Waters that run the rivers of life

Wash away what's wrong to make it right

Ultra Void was able to break away from their grasp and disappeared from within the smog around them, with all of them not being able to see where he is.

“Where’d he go?!” said Flash Magnus.

“Keep your eyes open!!” said Starswirl.

“Oh, don’t worry,” said Ultra Void as all of them are on high alert, “I have plenty in store for you.”

As they looked around, pony Pinkie Pie was the first one to spot him and shouted “There he is!!!”

Within a split second, he dashed forward and bashed them over and over, one by one. However, all of them instantly recovered and were mad.

“That’s it!!” shouted Rainbow.

“This monster’s going down!!” shouted Mistmane.

All of them charged and fought him all over. The Mane 6, Young Six and Pillars were all fighting on all sides.

(Velvet Heart & Fluttershy)

Sun is rising for a better day

Nothin' can stand in your way

Ultra Void pinned them against a mountainside, only for the heroes to push him far into orbit whilst everyone from all over the world, both in Equestria, and the human world, as the fight was now heading towards space.

(Rainbooms and Gods of Music)

You're the one, You're the one,

You're the one who fills the night with light in song

You're the one, You're the one,

You're the one who fills the night with light in song

“Watch, as I destroy all those you held dear.” Said Ultra Void.

“The only one who’s finished, is you!!” shouted Princess Twilight.

Before Ultra Void could react, they shot him with their magic, knocking him backwards.

Princess Twilight, pony Rarity, Mistmane, and Starswirl shot their magic at Ultra Void, whilst he used his staff to block them, only to be sucker punched by Rockhoof, pony Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Yona, Sandbar, and Mage Meadowbrook. Then pony Rainbow Dash, pony Fluttershy, Flash Magnus, Somnambula, Smolder, Ocellus, Silverstream and Gallus flew into one large tornado and knocked him back with great force.

The magic users then fired their magic once again, with Ultra Void hiding behind one of the larger rocks.

(Silverbolt and Sunset Shimmer)

Flying

On high

(Dusk Light and Twilight Sparkle)

Seeing all the needs to fill

Waters that run the river of life

“It’s over, Ultra Void!!” shouted Starswirl.

“Surrender now, or be destroyed!!” said Princess Twilight.

“Oh, I never surrender.” Said Ultra Void before he teleported and was right behind them. “I conquer!!”

He then blasted them all, causing them to hurtle towards the shattered moon, which left them all battered and bruised.

“Guys!!” exclaimed Starlight, with everyone gasping at what they saw.

(Rainbow & Fast Track)

Waters that run the rivers of life

Wash away what's wrong to make it right

(Velvet Heart & Fluttershy)

Sun is rising for a better day

Nothin' can stand in your way

Suddenly, Ultra Void appeared and powered both his hands as he was about to finish them off.

“Twilight and the others are in trouble!!” exclaimed Princess Celestia.

“Alright everyone!!” shouted both Silverbolt and Sunset at the same time, “Let’s rock!!”

They all suddenly beamed themselves towards where the others were, coming to their aid with great haste and the power of music.

(Rainbooms and Gods of Music)

You're the one, You're the one,

You're the one who fills the night with light in song

“Any last words?” said Ultra Void as he had all of them cornered.

The Mane 6, Pillars and Young Six saw that all of them were cornered and didn’t know what to do. That was, until the Gods of Music and Rainbooms arrived and slowly landed in front of them, whilst still feeling energized as they continued to play their music.

(Rainbooms and Gods of Music)

You're the one, You're the one,

You're the one who fills the night with light in song

“No.” muttered Ultra Void when he saw them together.

(Rainbooms and Gods of Music)

You're the one bring in the light, You're the one to make it right

You're the one bring in the light, You're the one to make it right

Shining bright!!

With great harmony light, a harmonious light and shockwave hit Ultra Void, damaging his visor whilst he was shocked by what happened. Both bands began to play their music whilst firing a laser at the same time, with Ultra Void firing one of his own, but the beam didn’t move towards them as they were evenly matched.

(Rainbooms and Gods of Music)

You're the one, You're the one,

You're the one who fills the night with light in song

You're the one, You're the one,

You're the one who fills the night with light in song

You're the one, You're the one,

The Mane 6, Pillars and Young Six stood up whilst also powering the power of harmony to them too.

“We need to finish this, once and for all.” Said Starswirl.

“Everyone!! Together!!” shouted Princess Twilight.

The three groups powered their harmony energy together like none had ever seen before. For Dark Void…was finished.

You're the one who fills the night with light in song

(You're the one bring in the light)

You're the one who fills the night with light in song

(You're the one bring in the light)

You're the one who fills the night with light in song

With great might, they casted the power of harmony with their beam, causing to grow greatly, causing it to engulf Dark Void, making him scream as he was slowly being turned to dust. The light soon faded and Dark Void was gone.

From both sides, everyone cheered as they saw how they defeated Ultra Void, as the ultimate villain was no more.

Everyone got together to where he was standing. Silverbolt picked something up, which was half the helmet from Dark Void, being nothing but an empty shell, before turning it into dust as it was scattered to the winds.

“Goodbye…Neil.” Said Silverbolt as he bid his former friend farewell.

Silverbolt lowered his head as he thought about the good times they had. He felt a hand on his arm, making him look and saw Sunset.

“Are you okay?” asked Sunset.

“Mourning.” Said Silverbolt. He sighed and said “If things had been different, I could’ve saved him. Why he chose this path, I’ll never know. I tried so hard to convince him to come back…but…”

Princess Twilight flew up and placed a hoof on his shoulder.

“He made his choice.” Said Princess Twilight, “There was nothing any of us could’ve done to free him from his hunger for power.”

“And when we used the power of harmony, we attempted to heal him, like we tried to do with Stygian.” said Starswirl.

“But we have looked deeper,” said Somnambula as he stood with them, “It would appear he had no soul left. As if he’d sacrificed it for something eviler long ago, by getting rid of his good half.”

“Still,” said Silverbolt, “I won’t mourn for the monster who destroyed everything we stood for. I mourn for our friend at the orphanage that stuck with us, whilst also growing up together the day we first left.”

“And that’s a good thing.” Said pony Fluttershy, “Sometimes there are those who do bad things. But sometimes we can’t forget the good ponies or creatures they used to be.”

Silverbolt looked at the others and said “I’m glad all of you are here. All of you. The three generations, as well as Earth’s Guardians of Harmony.”

“We feel the same way.” Said Twilight.

“And you know what this means?!” said pony Rainbow Dash in excitement.

“We just saved all of reality and two different worlds!! How awesome is that?!” said Rainbow Dash in excitement.

“Huh…it kinda does feel good, doesn’t it?” said Silverbolt. He then raised his fist in the air and said “To the power of music!!”

“To the power of Music!!” said everyone out loud at the same time.

“Come on then, let’s go home.” Said Silverbolt as he looked at it, “From the looks of it, it doesn’t look good.”

Silverbolt used his magic to teleport everyone back in Equestria. For the damage Ultra Void had done was truly great. How will they fix it? Only one way to find out.
