"Way ahead of ya!" Sunset smirked as her fingers channeled a powerful wave of hellfire among the demons in their path, incinerating all of them within contact while Circuit's group headed up. All the while, the rest of the girls formed a defensive circle to keep their enemy busy.
Circuit ran through the path Sunset had made, only to find what looked like a black latex-clad silver woman sitting on a throne of skulls. "Well done," she said mockingly, clapping her hands, "but it's only just begun, I'm afraid." She rose off the throne, and stood up before them. Circuit drew his sword, but he found he couldn't move. "Uh, uh, uh," she said, for she had controlled his blood to stop him from moving. "The one I will settle this with... is you," she added, pointing at Rainbow Dash. Rainbow Dash stood up. "Sanguinia, I presume?" "Well, aren't you bright," she said, "But I'm afraid that won't be enough to help you."
The others tried to move, but were being controlled by Sanguinia. It seemed she wanted to settle things between Rainbow and her only...
Rainbow Dash charged forward, in an attempt to punch Sanguinia in the gut. Sanguinia, however, just took the punch like it was nothing.
Sanguinia looked at Rainbow and blasted her with a shockwave that sent her flying across the battlefield, all the while she looked before Rainbow with pity.
"Oh, poor thing..." she said mockingly, "It's almost as if you're too weak to fight me..." Rainbow Dash glared at Sanguinia viciously, as if she intended to kill her from thought alone. "I... am not... WEAK!!" she said, jumping towards Sanguinia with a vengeance, and began to put her all into her attacks, landing hit after hit, each of which would rip through a normal human being like tissue paper, yet Sanguinia was simply bruised.
Sanguinia began to look annoyed as she backhanded Rainbow when she came to pull another punch, sending her flying with incredible force with the power that should have killed her many times over. The sheer force of her own attack causing a powerful shockwave that sent anything remotely nearby her flying. It still seemed that Rainbow was still alive however...
"I can't die yet," Rainbow Dash said, "Not until I win..." And she proceeded to snap Sanguinia's neck. It took all of her strength, but she did it. Exhausted, panting and wheezing on her knees, she said, "I did it..."
Sanguinia was on the ground. Dead. Her control over the rest of the girls finally vanished, along with her control over Crimson and Circuit. Finally able to move, they rushed over to Rainbow Dash.
Suddenly, something strange happened. Sanguinia's blood was moving towards Rainbow Dash, engulfing her. As the blood dissipated, it revealed that Rainbow Dash had grown five inches taller. Her abs had become a well-defined six-pack, her hips doubled in width, her butt tripled in size, her waist shrank by about half, her thighs became twice as thick, and her chest was two and a half times the size of her head. She looked down and said, "I... I look amazing..."
Rainbow Dash chuckled and said, "Don't worry, new girl... At least you've got Crim." Rarity just shook her head in disgust. "Stupid sexy Rainbow Dash..." she muttered. Circuit felt weak-kneed around her.
Crimson's face lit up with a blush, all the while Sunset noticed this reaction along with Jackpot's. Sunset smiled as she wrapped her arm around his waist. "Don't worry, you've still got the two of us" Sunset happily said to him. Crimson couldn't help but smile at those words...he had a family of friends he needed to take care for...
Four months later.... Upon returning home, Crimson couldn't help but feel useless. He knew he was powerful, but he was severely out of his own league. He had a bad feeling that in the future, that unless he got stronger, he wouldn't be able to protect everyone he cared about. He seen enemies drastically more powerful then Rainbow and Circuit was, and he knew fully well that even they won't be able to stop them. The day that he returned home, he vanished. Crimson went into a self-imposed exile to become strong enough to protect Earth. Sometime before his exile, he made contact with the Spirit Realm to talk to his predecessors about his troubles and his own personal self-doubt. The spirits told the young mage that on Earth was an ancient Alien time-chamber, deep underground, that would allow Crimson to become stronger. Ancient beyond all measure, the spirits told Crimson that he would be the first human to ever step foot inside of the chamber in 34 million years. Crimson went alone to this chamber, almost three kilometers underneath Antarctica Ice. Blasting a hole through to the surface of the continent, Crimson walked inside and vanished. By the time that Crimson returned to the surface, his power was completely off the charts....
By that time, the others had begun honing their own abilities. Applejack had the strength of an ant, if an ant were THIS big (i.e. human-sized); Rarity could conjure objects from her imagination, Fluttershy turned into a feral wolf-like creature when angry, Pinkie Pie could bend the laws of physics to her will, Twilight was developing a magically-powered exoskeleton, and Rainbow Dash was getting the hang of blood manipulation. Along with Derpy, who, in addition to incredible strength and speed, would gain a new ability from eating muffins, Sunset and Jackpot were training their magical prowess to their limit. Circuit, under the guidance of Erethor, became skilled enough to potentially destroy the planet. But that would be nothing... compared to Crimson...
Crimson levitated himself out of the frozen hole in Antarctica, looking towards the frozen horizon as the sunrise shined across the amazing wasteland around him. During his exile, the already very-powerful mage spent a real-world time of four months inside of the time-chamber. Time was a strange concept inside of the chamber, but it was something entirely alien once inside. Although four months passed in the chamber, Crimson had purposely modified the training conditions to accelerate his vast potential. A single step over the threshold of the training area brought immediately brought Crimson into a gravity over five hundred times Earth's own gravity, which originally almost crippled him even at his strongest. The air became denser the further he traveled into the infinite void of the room. The temperature fluctuated from –58 °F (-50 °C) and 122 °F (50 °C), which brought extreme pain to his muscles that almost never seemed to adjust themselves to the temperature. Because of the very nature of the room, Crimson ceased to age entirely, which brought him to train and develop himself as much as he liked. Although only Four months had passed, Crimson had experienced 10,000 years of physical and arcane training. Crimson returned to the surface as a completely new man, and as a completely new individual entirely. Crimson's hair had grown longer during that time, his originally short purple and yellow wavy hair now reaching down to the bottom of his neck. Physically, his form had increased as well. He grown about four inches taller, a small increase in muscle mass was seen but the muscle tone is sharply defined. After a change of clothes, now wearing his own custom suit of arcane armor, Crimson was prepared to prove himself. He returned feeling that the world was in danger, and was ready to prove himself as the protector of the Earth. The sunshine was the first thing that Crimson felt, the warm rays touching his skin and the crisp air making him feel alive once more. He levitated himself above the Antarctic wasteland and took off into the skies above him, ready to fly back home. He wasn't even considered Human anymore....
----- Circuit and his group were desparately busy fighting off a massive mech, easily four times the size of a person. "There's no blood in it anywhere!" said Rainbow Dash, "I can't stop it!"
Without warning, a streak of lightning cracked through the sky and slammed into the Mech, blowing it completely apart and leaving the pilot of the Mech utterly defenceless. In the sky was a figure, just standing on the top of a ruined skyscraper. All eyes looked towards the building to find Crimson just standing there, looking at his friends and the pilot of the mech
Lyra just slept inside the mech, unconscious. Rainbow simply stood over her and got her blood flowing again. "Lyra? What happened?" she asked. "I'm so sorry!" she said sadly, "I had no control, it was just using me as a source of power!"
