Previous ChapterNext Chapter

While Rarity teleported back to her boutique to get her "bare essentials" for battle, as any lady would, Aby teleported to the front of the castle of friendship who was 100 meters away aproximately from the "arena".

Once there she rubbed her chin, thinking hard "Hmm that...that will do" she said as she walked to the town market trying her best to not appeared surprised with the contrast of the towns of her own world. And did her best to act like her counterpart.

If she played her cards right it should go smoothly. Noticing most of the vendors had open outposts she searched for any that had metal. So far it seemed no luck...

As far as she could see the streets were not as much cemented as in her world. While the pathways and roads seemed to be defined it seemed it was mostly pressed dirt lands. Did ponyville rained little?

The vendor posts, the houses and heck even the flora was full of colour!. It was nice seeing so much nature for a change of pace...

"Heya Rarity, nice to see you!" Said a amicable friendly Cross ayed grey furred pegasus mare. Her eyes hazel, her hair blonde and unkempt. As for her clothes a Grey jacket with white undershirt with a tag (Derpy hooves) that had gold buttons and a box logo. In her neck a bubbles tattoo. For her torso a black knee high skirt.

On her back a backpack kind of sag filled with letters and boxes.

"Uhh!...yes, hi dear...." this mare knows "you", act natural!

"Hmm, by the way I have no packages for you today, but you seem to be looking for something." The pegasus noted.

She is a mailmare, good to know...

"Uhh yeah actually, quite the observer you are darling. So, well I am in search for a wide assorment of metals. Would you know any establishment of the sort in town?" she admited

"Metals huh?. Makes sense, while you do always have precious stones in your business i rarely see you handling metals, so makes sense you dont know were they sell them here is natural. I Always assumed you just got them at the near cave with spike?. " the mailmare rubbed her chin

Oh, oh.

"Well...yeah...that cave..." It would come in handy to know were that cave is!, im improvising here! ..but for now..."see uhh I need a good amount of metal in a short span of time. So i have no time to do any digging, you know the drill. So....do you know any uhh forge perhaps?" Please let there be one...

The pegasus thought "well, there is one guy i know, because I send him packets from time to time. The old stallion, uses the leftover ores that diamond dogs discard while searching for gems, that tend to be metals, so he uses them for various stuff. Name is Rusty hammer. Just go north until that house, and turn left 6 houses" smiled the pegasus mare as she nodded.

"Thanks you very much, dear....Derpy?" Is that real name now? Did I fuck up?!

"No problem, Rarity!. Gotta go though. packets and what not. See ya!" Without another word the pegasus flew off.

Great, now all I need Is bits...

Reaching for her pockets she notices something

Oh? So my emergency money got ported with me?!....oh well, the gun and clothes did too...so I guess im not complaining.

She shook her head and walked that indifated direction.

I just hope money is equal in this reality....

-----10 minutes later------

POOF!

POOF!

Two Poof's magic were created as Rarity and Abby returned to the arena.

On Rarity's case:

-Presentation Anthem: Rarity by Fighting is Magic

https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=Ob5g2irAUdo&si=Zq313aWk4c7sA4K1

In one of her hands laid a Ornamental but quite sturdy Umbrella with Diamond, emerald and topaz. incrustrations. The end was blunt but pronuntiated. As of the handle it was an eagle handle

On the other a Blund edged Victorian style walking cane that was made of Amethyst, diamond and emerald.

Both of her hands, however had golden rings on it with gem incustrations.

Her clothes seemed to change , as of now she sported a long ruffle dress with incrusted precious stones from top to bottom. Under it traces of a stylish lavander leather light armour could be asumed.

In her neck a scarf made of strong heavy silk once again incrusted in gems.

In her back, laid a silk cape that reached to her lower back. Once again incrusted with Precious gems.

Finally in her extremities , on each one she sproted a series of textile like holders that had an assorment of parnafernalia. Once agan encrusted with precious stones.

"Im dressed for duress, how about you?" said Rarity With a wry smile as she placed her umbrella and Cane on holders that her dress had on the back.

On Abby's case however:.

-introducting scene music- seikon no qwaser ost Chimeisha sasha.

https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=R7gAAOHyQNA&si=Dos09YZ02nx6p-_H

She weared the same clothes, however over them she wore a set of selfmade golden metallic alloy plate armour .

This armor consisting in:

Pauldron (Shoulder Armor): The shoulders are covered with alloy pauldrons that offer good protection while retaining mobility.

Breastplate: The chest is covered by a polished alloy breastplate, providing robust frontal defense.

Gorget: The neck area appears to have protection, likely with an integrated or separate gorget.

Arms : The forearms are partially protected, with visible gaps for better movement.

Underneath that and on top of her normam clothes was a fine layer of chainmail.

This armour with its relatively open areas combines protection, and functionality.

On her hand laid a large and long cilndrical 180 cm long Bō made of the same material.

On her would be gun holsters, at the sides of her chain armour covered jeans she Instead had them filled with golden alloy metal cards.

Her hands instead of gauntlets were covered by multilayered "magic enhanced" smithing gloves that could hold up to extreme heat and yet looked stylish and sleek with good grip.

"I will smelt that smirk of your face. " Abby snarked back.

"Pun, intended. In fact ...why dont I give you a little demonstration?". She said holding her Bō as ir grew Red hot and as she smelted it much to the surprise of all the expectators as well as Rarity herselph she morphed it with both her magic and gloved hands into a smaller war hammer with Blunt Edges.

Imagine this scene basically: from second 2 to 16

After the hammer was formed she took breath and Positioned herself

"....Ready, ?" Asked Abby.

"Bring it, Dear. Lets...Excercise" answered Rairity

"....Excelent. That is how its supposed to be. Once you make a duel proposal, you must See it through". whispered Aby.

"I hope this doesnt take too long...I need to go see my sister to-" Rarity was about ro say but a wide eyed Abby tightened her jaw before starting her attack.

All the while the public watched and and Amber's jaw also clenched at the mention of the word "Sister". The other alternate 6's eyes showed surprise and worry.

Not a moment Later ,Abby pressed her right foot forward and her left backwards as she threw her weapon high to the air in Rarity's direction.

"Wha-!" Rarity backstepped to gain distance

Seizing her oportunity before the hammer fell to land, Aby Sprinted forward to Rarity as she took out a set of Metal Alloy cards from her holdsters, both right and left side.

As the cards touched her gloves , a moment later they started glowing red hot, due tl the heat. All before being thrown towards their target while spinning. A second later a storm of spinning metal cards turned "shuriken" esque type weapons but without normal edge, and hot as could be were flung towards Rarity.

Not sharp edged? sure. She was ok with the rules. But what they lacked in edge? Ha!, they compensated with spinning, near melting point heat, and sturdiness of metal. A true weapon!

Rarity could barely React as she took out her sturdy Crystal umbrella. And with the help of her Geomancy made it spun at highspeed on place in front of her once it was opened.

This made the spinning metal projectiles to be deflected making small dents on the umbrella.

The reflected thrown weapons diapersing to the sides as they kept spinning radially on adjacent land. Burning and cutting the dirt and Plants on their way until the finally stoppped.

The metal cards incrusted on the soil glowed in fading red hot heat, and in a blue glow. No doubt Magic.

But she was not out the blue yet, for in the brief moment she managed to block the previous onslaught Aby had cut space between them as the Hammer finally fell on Aby's open Hand as she catched it mere half meter away from Rarity.

Once on its Grip, Aby did a wide swing of her Hammer directed to Rarity's right side. Seeming no time to dodge, Rarity used her Geomancy and grabbing her cape with one hand while gripping one of its edges, she covered the gem dust made intricate textile and folded it with her magic 7 times in a mater of seconds. Condensing the wide cape into an impromptu shield. Each fold, just like of you made a secuence of folds made the textile sturdier, increased the girth and made it harder and more able to protect.

To give a brief explanation to help understand what happened with Rarity's textile molding ability's thanks to her geomancy. Think of this physics explanation by the Physicist Sidnry R. Nagel " When you crumple a sheet of paper into a ball, even the strongest of hands can't crumple it smaller than a golf ball. The sheet of paper is flimsy when it's flat, but it becomes surprisingly strong when you squish it. "You eventually realize that what you're holding in your hand is 75 percent air,"

As the hammer hit the impromptu shield a considerable ammount of the force was absorbed and distributed however not all as Rarity felt herself being pushed Backward a meter her foot dragging through the dirt as she winced, her magic unfllsing the cape made Shield on her arm showing a bruise.

Abby Smirked as the small distance was widened between them.

"Oh? Though this be madness yet there is method in it..." said Abby

Rarity was now highly alert. The smell of burned leafs and dirt reached her nose making her wince, and look at the Cards still on the ground.

"What do you mean by that?" Rarity asked.

Smirking Abby did a small reverence "ah, Pardon. I merely make notice of how...despite how your outfit looks ludicrous and down clownish for battle, its actually....surpsingly methodical. Maybe even functional"

Abby gave 3 claps with her gloves.

"good job" She merely said.

Rarity noticed something, Aby both insulted and complimented her. Calling her outfit clownish and unfit for battle on a first glance but giving her props for using just like she herself Intelligence and Crafts to turn it into something albeit unorthodox truly interesting in battle.

Rarity huffed. "So much for being cultured, That the first thing you do when on a different world, Is... what?, overreact resorting to violencetowards a lady and then..doing that....with spike? "

"I wonder if you even love him ,or does he truly loves you?....or maybe...both of you are just...using yourselves as outlets to release the feelings and frustrations you had trapped inside?, how sad, truly". She concluded.

This made Aby enraged and Spike felt as if he was slapped in the face.

"...Doubt thou the stars are fire? doubt that the sun doth move? doubt true to be a liar?, well... you better never doubt I Love" Aby said in silent rage.

"This way of speaking..." Rarity felt unnerved taking steps back, this way of speaking was strange to her. It reminded her of...Luna..... But she had no time for thinking- for Aby was already sprinting towards her again.

"...I Really Dont like you" Aby whispered as she sprinted. While she did, her hammer glowed blue. But this time instead of getting red hot it emited a buzzing sound as all the laid cards on the battle field as if the hammer were a negative electric pole and the cards were positive, the cards went flying to meet the hammer.

Magnetokinesis

The cards grew red hot again and almost instanly melted with the original hammer before it collided with the again newly formed pseudo shield of Rarity. Except this time the extra weight of the 6 kg of metal cards added aditional vector force to the strike.

That however was not all of it..

"Ughhh!!!" She groaned as even though she struggled to fold it 8 times instead this time, for more protection.

she felt a more pronounced Pain on her arm than last time. the bruise of before got more pronounced.

"ughhh!" .. she groaned again she was thrown back a meter and a half this time, as she covered her arm with a piece of textile as she winced.

The audience was worried for her, but as for now could not intervene even If twilight wanted to, for Rarity's sake. altough since techically Aby was not breaking rules....ugh!

Dammit! Twilight thought.

the public however gasped at seeing the outlayer of purple bruise covered in textile was...with first decree burn

Gasp "Rarity!" They said.

"Now then...." Aby walked slowly as the alloy hammer in her hand smelted into long yet heavy 2 weighted blunt edged weights weapon known as Mankiri Chain or Kusari-Fundo. But in this case tge chain was sturdier, the weights had more girth nad weight and the chain overall exceeded 150cm long.

"You said...you were Dressed for Duress? *giggle "And I thought you were supposed to be a good designer?" She taunted.

Rarity gritt her teeth "ꟾ’m not really into fighting, ꟾ’ m more into fashion but I can do both, If need be.". She said as she relaxed her body and thought her next move.

Aby slowly walked to her rotating each end of her weapon in her wrist getting more momentum, as she heated the metal, making it more potentially deadly.

"Hmmm..." Aby then threw one of the spinning ends of the chain weapon towards Rarity, who deflected it with her insignia Umbrella defense move again, this time the heated blunt object denting the umbrella .

Rarity decided she could not afford to play around as she used her geomancy to keep the spinning umbrella floating following her, as she sprinted towards Aby.

"Come!"

So as Rarity sprinted towards her, as she back stepped she continuously kept striking the spinning floating gem stone coated umbrella as it dented and deformed more and more until some 2 meters away from her vicinity it broke.

Hower she would not scream victory yet by a longshot as Rarity kept running turning once again her cape into a shield that covered her body from harm. All of this as the shards of the leftover umbrella floated and circled, like they were pieces about to be ensambled in a puzzle.

Then as she took her Cane from her back with her free hand, the Remnants of the umbrella ensambled with it. Making a blunt edged version of Lance, Called Light Lance or corseca. Bypassing Twilights Rules on a technicallity.

As she came in close Quarters with her alter, Aby quickly reformed her chain; one end of it into a medium alloy shield and the other into a smaller version of a war hammer called Horsemans mace.

As Aby covered with the shield, she felt the blunt lance collide with the shield sending a vibration to her whole body as ahe was pushed backwards some.

But there was something else. She could feel the vibrationa of the lance's end vibrating....

Then she saw it, just like with her umbrella, Rarity was making the blunt Lance Rotate, turning it ir even with its blunt edge, effectively into a drill made of hard sturdy gems that were starting to make a dent on the shield.

Rarity called this attack....Heaven's piercer!

While not yet breaking through the impacts weight, force and Vibration pushed Aby back a meter and a a half. With The shield dented. Making the metal groan and causing Aby pain while gritting her teeth.

The back of the arm of Aby that was holding the shield was bruised.

As they both took agitated breaths.

"That....ah....was better. How...ah...did you not Burn your hand....ah...with the friction?" Asked Aby in referenfe to the Lance attack.

Rarity Showed her Hand that was covered with her diamond incrusted silk scarf

"Silk...ah....is heat resistant...ah....and highly resistant to friction and tenstion" Rarity smirked.

Abby smiled "well....she is not as weak as I thought.... I guess I can turn the heat up then!"

She then smelted part of her Blunt weapon and remade the throwing cards in the blink of an eye.

Then she smirked as she eyed the Cape of Rarity that had chunks of smelted metal covering part of its surface.

So using her smelting magic she reformed part of the back of her armour for a weapon holder. Which she used to place her hammer who she would then use fragments of to...fight.

So she did a a reverence to the audience as she took out her shield from her arm and made it smaller, the rest of the metal being either added to the weapon in her back or to stacks of cards being made on her other hand.

The rest of the molten shield being turned into a smaller one armed shield that was tight to the arm with a "band of metal" tight to her arm.

making both of her arms objetctivelt free and yet having the portable shield if need be, tied to her arm.

She smirked maliciously and said "Let me show you all a trick...." as ahe took the cards in bith of her hands ans interdigits, as all of the cards started glowing red hot, but some of them also had small sparks of blue coming out of them

"Its a show time!"

She threw the cards like a seasoned pitcher with curves and spin that could make professional knife throwers jealous.

Magnetokinesis

Rarity backsteped and rearranged the gem shards she had turned into a Lance and rearranged them into a Pseudo umbrellla she held on her right hand spinning it again with magic. Her left had the pseudo shield cape But this time....

"That wont work again".

while some of the cards were blocked and radially dispersed by the re made umbrella , the ones that glowed blue as if honning missiles followed the left cape and diverted course. All on the way to the left towards the glowing chunks of smelt metal on her cape that also glowed blue.

Rarity tried to block with her shield but But before they cards truly did clash with the cape shield.... the blue glow on the cards dissapeared and no lm followed the curve course hey had diverting enough from the shield to get in Rariry's left torso/arm close quarters and if not for the crystal incrustations of her dress and leather underarmour she would have the cards heat and spin cut and incrust on her flesh, in this case what did happen was that she was hit with force on her left torso and arm joint that left visible bruises and burned the sking with first decree burns

"Uuugghhh!" Rarity recoiled and trembled

"RARITY!" They screamed in worry

https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=LjsavoV8K1I&si=grQaXILY2IejPaul

Aby Merely smiled wth eyes frowned and with her new cards made on her gloves and said . " shakespare once said that The labor we delight in physics cures pain, which I truly believe." then before she threw another round of homing cards she said "For a Seamstress, I wonder?... if your Work will do the same for you..." then with a malicious smirk the carda were thrown towards Rarity once again.

As The cards rotated, and traced after her like missiles following a target , they collided with new parts of Rarity's body.

Every moment that passed More parts were hit. Even if she tried to dodge or block, the on and off ability of Her alter, made it hard to even predict the next attack's direction

The joints, arms,torso and stomach of Rarity even her legs were starting to get more bruises as she grunted in pain. Some of of the less protected apots like her arms and legs getting first decree burns on the bruise's spot.

Rarity felt her cape and body heavier, making her had more difficult to breath. Then at the next round of homing attacks she opted to make a combination of pure magic shield and a full body cover with the cape to give her time to think.

But that was all hard considering she was doing a great effort to block all damage that was thrown her way. She felt herself having a anxiety attack. She could fight, sure. But beyond Some ocassions on her life, like the canterlot invasion for example she never felt like this. She was sure that perhaps she could win somehow, but the throbbing pain didnt let her think carefully.

Perhaps it was ok to just surre-?.

Scene music: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=fa9hHdU2VxY

No...

NO

N.E.V.E.R

She felt her inside demanding of her. No hestitation on the demands.

She felt her own breath quicken without any sign of slowing down. She was having a panic attack. What was THIS.? when was the last time she felt this way?...wasn't it-?!

Yes.

Yes it was

Aw...Forgot. about.me?...Darling?

Abby's barrage was getting fiercer, as the recently collided cards that started to crack Rarity's magic shield, then flew back to Abby's hands as they made way to her mace/hammer on her back, all thanks to her magnetokinesis magic skill.

All the while she got nearer and nearer to Rarity shield which of it insides to the eyes of the observants was not visible , for Rarity, like said before made a coocoon around her with the long cape, all underneath the magic shield.

Her friends tried to intervene, damned be the rest but a firm hold of her alters on them stopped them from doing so. Their faces not amused for the mane 6's attempts to foul the match.

But then everybodie's attention got back to the battle infront of them. As the sound of metal colliding with a hard surface revervated on the area.

CLANG!

Everybody, even Abby herself was stunned.

right infront of them a magic that glowed in blue and black intervarls had took hold of the last thrown lot of flying metal cards, before the aformentioned metal on metal clashin sound, this aura made them first lot clash with force against the current lot thrown by Aby. Making the pieces radially dispersa as they clung to the ground nad kept flashing black and blue as they remained red hot.

A trail of blood ran through Aby's left cheek as the card, that was thrown her way cut it, and now laid motionless on the dirt behind her.

But more worrying than that was...

"Rarity?!" They exclaimed. As they saw their friend's mane float slightly, said mane was softly starting to wave as small diamond looking flashes of what could be interpreted as starts made it shine.

Her teeth becoming more edgy and her eye lids getting a dark shadow under and overthem.

Hee closed eyes opened, and now a look of slightfear and pain that she had but a moment ago, was gone. Only determination remained in her eyes as they get a dangerous glint that wasn't there before.

"This is?!" Their surprise and worry was accrntuated.

.Abyy grinded her teeth as her surprise turned into irritation.

"Since when do you know magnetokinesis?!" She demanded an answer.

Rarity's response was to slowly walk to her, quickly turning into a trot and then straight running, as each step she took became heavier and heavier, making that by the timw she statted running small clouds of dust by the size of a head, as each step made a indentation on the ground.

"What the-!!!" Aby realized as she tried to back away, but for some reason Rarity's legs became faster, almost like her body weighted nothing!.

wait! That it!, she had experienced this before! was not magnetism...this was...!

"Ughhh!!!" She felt her arm's shield be hit with a spinning corseca that this time felt like it weighed a 100kg not only denting the shield even more this time, causing a nasty bruise on Aby's arm. But as if hit by a horse (no pun intended) she was thrown back a couple of meters, barely stopping as she took her mace on her other hand, and piercing it through the dirt as she drifted.

"How?!" She demanded, ignoring the sharp pain on her forearm.

"How do you have gravity magic?!, who teached you?!, was it this world Moon?!!" She demanded.

The six crowns locked in their eyes on Rarity. As the mane six for their part and spike did the same.

"Nightmare...?, but..."Spike felt his own breath to hitch.

"Luna's skill?....nightmare?....but it...uh?...it learns from each host?..." Twilights mind was going ham.

Thats better.

I would hate to lose.

Again

"Rarity, are you ok?!" Spike broke the tense silence.

Oh...well, As long as you win I guess....I technically do.

And Just like that as if the last instance didn't happen. most of the changes in Rarity's brief appearance seemed to receed except her slightly flowing mane, that now had a white and violet straps, as well as this renewed strenght, energy and calm she didn't have before.

Her eyes blinking to normal, as her body felt invigorated, Her body felt light.

-Music for Final scene: Ochako Vs Himiko Yuki Hayashi

As she clutched slightly her arranged broken gemstones made umbrella turned shield, she felt a grip so strong, that she didn't recognize it was now her own strength.

The mane 6 seemed surprised. If it was truly nightmare ,why was it only partially manifested and instantly contained as if it never happened?!

"That hurt!" Aby got on her own 2 feet again. The Shield was so dented, at that point it seemed like it was a cone instead of a shield.

She took said shield from her arm, revealing a nasty bruise.

Abby stood defiantly, her heavy dented shield discarded and her bruised arm cradling her molten mace. Her breathing was heavy, but her eyes burned with determination. The audience was silent, captivated by the sheer intensity of the duel.

“Well, Rarity, I must admit,” Abby growled, wiping the blood trail from her cheek. “You’re far more tenacious than I gave you credit for. But this game is far from over!”

Rarity's mane shimmering faintly stood tall. The faint remains and glow of her partial Nightmare form danced across her figure, her presence both slightly ethereal and commanding. She adjusted her diamond-encrusted silk scarf, her fingers trailing over the faintly glowing shards of her shattered weapons. For a moment, she frowned, a flicker of confusion crossing her face as her body felt lighter—almost unbound.

Her thoughts raced: What is this strange energy? Why does it feel so... natural?...

“Darling, if this is a game, then let’s play to win,” Rarity said coolly, though a trace of uncertainty lingered in her voice.

The two combatants stood five meters apart, their gazes locked. The tension was electric.

With a snarl, Abby threw her mace into the air, her magnetokinesis magic pulling it apart mid-flight into dozens of molten, spinning triangular-shaped blunt shards. Each piece glowed a fiery red, the heat distorting the air around them. She raised her hands, and the fragments began to orbit her like a blazing meteor swarm.

“Behold!” Abby declared, her voice ringing with power a trail of blood going down her nose. “Meteor's forge!”

She extended her arms, and the molten fragments shot toward Rarity in a coordinated barrage. Each shard moved with unnerving precision, guided by Abby’s will. The ground beneath them hissed and smoked as the heat radiated outward, closing the five-meter distance in seconds.

Rarity’s eyes widened as she raised her reconstructed lance. She hesitated for a split second, sensing an unfamiliar energy coursing through her. Instinctively, she focused, and with a sweeping gesture, she summoned the floating shards of her broken umbrella and gems, arranging them into a rotating shield. Her geomancy merged seamlessly with a strange, newfound power.

This... isn’t just geomancy, Rarity thought, her heart pounding. This is something more.

The spinning shards collided with the molten projectiles in rapid succession, each impact sending out a dazzling spray of sparks and fragmented gemstones. The audience watched in awe, while Rarity herself seemed both surprised and exhilarated by her own actions.

“Is that all, dear?” Rarity taunted, her confidence beginning to return as she started to grasp the new force at her disposal.

Abby gritted her teeth and slammed her fists together. The remaining shards merged into a molten cloud, reshaping into armor that encased her body. But before the glowing metal could touch her skin, she extended a shimmering magical barrier over herself, protecting her from the intense heat. The molten metal solidified into a formidable knight-like form with intricate patterns and smooth, blunt triangular projections resembling stylized spikes.

Her magnetokinesis infused the armor with additional mobility and strength, enhancing her physical prowess. Abby moved with fluid precision, each step deliberate as she advanced. The five-meter gap between them closed to three meters in but a couple of moments.

“Let’s see how you handle this,” Abby said, her voice echoing from within her new armor.

Abby raised her gauntleted hands, and molten tendrils sprouted from them like fiery whips. She lashed out, each tendril striking with searing heat and force. Rarity leapt back, barely evading the first strike, and sidestepped the second. The tendrils slashed at the ground, leaving scorched trails in their wake.

She’s faster now, Rarity realized, her brow furrowing. That armor isn’t just for show.

Rarity retaliated by lifting all the shards of gemstones from her dress and hurling them forward. She infused them with gravity magic mid-flight, increasing their mass exponentially. One shard struck Abby’s shoulder, forcing her back a step. And another, and another striked her armout again and again, The molten armor rippled but held firm.

Abby snarled, reforming her tendrils into a massive flail, the head glowing with molten energy. She swung it in a wide arc, forcing Rarity to retreat to a distance of a couple of meters. The flail smashed into the ground, sending a shockwave of molten debris outward.

Rarity countered by summoning chunks of the battlefield itself, creating a floating barrier of earth and gemstones between herself and the heated dust. She hurled the barrier forward, colliding with the molten wave and dispersing it. With a swift motion, she then closed their gap her movements precise and fluid.

Abby’s molten armor began to ripple more and more, as now both her nostrils left blood out down her face, while Rarity for her end Even witht the apparent boost of of nowere was reaching her limit. So with a roar, Both unleashed their final gambit. For Abby, Using all the remaining molten metal, she reshaped it into a massive, blunt-edged construct resembling a stylized lance,in a different style than Rarity's its surface covered with intricate engravings and smooth circular projections. The weapon spun rapidly, as it caused friction on Abby's especial gloves that were on their limit too, as was generating a magnetic field that enhanced its momentum and density.

Abby roared, hurling the massive construct toward Rarity. The air crackled with energy as the weapon closed the gap in an instant, the sheer force distorting the ground beneath it, however for her part too gave it all she had at this final move, so as Rarity took a deep breath, her mane shimmered as she channeled all her magic, her own nose letting a small traill of blood due to the effort and overheat, though not as bad as Abby.Then almost instantaneusly The shattered remnants of her umbrella and gems swirled around her, coalescing into a massive crystalline drill that pulsed with gravitational energy. Her thoughts crystallized: Focus. Balance the weight. Draw its power inward.

“Diamond...!" Rarity grunted

“Dominion’s -! So did Abby

Both mares threw their attack towards the other's.

Clang!

" is the Rough!” Rarity declared, her voice ringing with power.

"Herald! Abby's roar reverbated in what was left of her armour

Rarity's drill spinning with incredible speed . The gravitational pull distorted the air, drawing in Abby’s construct. As the two weapons collided, the magnetic field of Abby’s lance interacted violently with Rarity’s gravitational force, creating a dazzling explosion of light and sound. The shockwaves rippled through the battlefield, forcing both combatants to dig their sole into the ground to hold their positions.

For a moment, time seemed to freeze as the audience held their breath. Then, Abby’s construct began to crack, the magnetic field faltering under the relentless pull of Rarity’s drill. With a final, resounding shatter, the construct exploded into harmless fragments, scattering across the battlefield.

As the dust settled, Rarity stood tall, her crystalline drill dissipating into glittering shards. Abby knelt a but a meter awat, her molten armor cracked and reduced to fragments scattered around her. She clutched her arm, as what was left of Rarity's weapon on her end was not but the cracked crystal Handle which was directed towards her midsection as her expression was a mix of frustration and grudging respect.

“It seems... I’ve been bested,” Abby admitted, lowering her head. “But, don’t think for a second that this means you are better than me or that I will let you stop me from pursing my own goals". Said Abby as she looked at spike which was worried.

Rarity extended a hand, her expression softening. “It was a magnificent duel, darling. Perhaps next time, we can settle our groups differences without resorting to such... dramatic measures.”

Abby hesitated, then took Rarity’s hand, though her grip was tense "Hmm, that would be good yeah. Mare I need a change of clothes after this".

Rarity chuckled softly. “And I’ll look forward to making them, dear. Besides, Competition does keep things interesting.”

As they hold their own bodies sore spots, Rarity and Abby exchanged a final look. While respect had been forged, a discrete animosity remained in Abby’s gaze, promising that their rivalry was far from over.
