Equestrian Spirits

30-Darkness vs. Light

Six flashes of light appeared in a dark abyss. Six girls appeared out of that light.
Twilight: Girls! There you are!
Pinkie: I missed you so much!!
Applejack: What happened? One minute we were bout ta face Nightmare, the next, we were all in our worst fears.
Rainbow: I think it was that Sombra guy. He tried to drive us off track so they could get back to business on... whatever they're doing!
Nightset: Hmm, clever girl.
The girls all turned to see Nightmare still in Sunset Shimmer's body several yards away from them.
Nightset: And because of all your fear, I now have enough power to escape this wretched body!
She started to glow a dark aura before Sunset collapsed on the ground unconscious and the girls saw Nightmare's true form. She had pitch black skin, dark blue tangled hair, red eyes with slitted pupils, and sharp teeth. All the girls gasped in horror and Fluttershy hid behind Applejack.
Shadows filled the room and Sombra covered the girls in a dark mist.
Sombra: Don't worry girls. After this is over, you'll be joined your ghost friends in the afterlife!
The girls could hardly breathe.
Nightmare: Let's make this fun, shall we? Which one of you girls should I finish off first?
She circled the girls, eyeing them one by one.
Nightmare: Hmmm, how about... YOU!!
She pointed at Rarity. She gasped and backed away.
Rarity: No! Please, don't hurt me!
Nightmare only laughed as she drove a sharp nail towards her.
Twilight: NOO!
Pinkie: RARITY!
The girls all gasped. But when they didn't hear anything, they slowly looked to see Nightmare frozen in terror staring at Rarity's hand, which she had held up in panic, had the symbol of a purple diamonds. Rarity opened her eyes too and looked at her hand in awe.
Nightmare: No. No!! The elements!! I should have known!!
Rarity: What's going on?
Fluttershy: It's on all of us.
Everyone looked down at their hands to see they each had a symbol. Twilight had a magenta star. Fluttershy had a pink butterfly. Pinkie had a blue balloon. Applejack had an orange apple. And Rainbow had a red lightning bolt. The demons shrunk back in terror at the sight.
Pinkie: What happening to them?
Rainbow: I think this power inside us can defeat them!
They all held their hands out towards the beasts, making them back away even more. They snarled and hissed. Sombra tried to lurch forward and grab them, taking hold on Rainbow's arm.
Rainbow: Augh!! Help!
She was being dragged towards the demons.
Pinkie: We're coming!
The girls all grabbed Rainbow Dash and pulled. As they pulled their light grew brighter. The harder they pulled, the brighter the light grew until it was blinding. Their was a sizzling as Sombra let go of Rainbow and clutched his own arm in pain. The girls all held on to each other as Nightmare screamed.
Nightmare: THIS ISN'T OVER!! I WILL COME BACK!! AND WHEN I DO, YOU'LL ALL RUE THE DAY YOU DEFEATED ME!!!
The girls screamed as the light grew brighter still before they all ran out of energy and collapsed.
