The rest of the girls agreed almost immediately, all the while Crimson had a smile on his face. He would be teaching his best friends on how to become sorcerers and mages. "Alright, glad to see that we all have enthusiasm. I haven't actually taught this to other people before, so keep that in mind. Okay....unlocking your mana" Crimson said as he looked at each of them. "This is much easier then what you'd think it is. Let's do it in a group, since we only get to do it once. Now, all of you hold hands." The Girls and Circuit followed his instructions, each of them now holding hands in a circle. "Now, close your eyes and try to concentrate on your mind." Like so, all of the students closed their eyes and began to concentrate. Crimson looked at them and nodded. "Final part, keep your eyes shut. You might feel a small tap on your head, that's just me helping you in the mana process. Another alternate way of unlocking your reserves is for a sorcerer to manually unlock it for you." Once everything was done, Crimson stood back. "Now, open your eyes. Feel different?"
Crimson looked at each of the girls (and Circuit) and noticed the concentration on their faces. "Alright, you should suddenly feel a surge of energy that would feel like goosebumps. Completely harmless. Once you feel it, you're done."
"Crimson! I feel it!" Pinkie jumped, her excitement almost way to much to contain. "I got it as well, this feels incredible." Rarity spoke, just as the rest of the girls felt the sensation tingle across their bodies. The sensation felt like nothing they have ever experienced before, a momentary sensation of absolute bliss. Crimson watched their faces as they unlocked their reserves, trying not to feel like a proud parent in the process for helping unlock this power. "Alright, now for something more interesting. Your Soul weapons." Crimson began before taking a deep breath. "I'm going to assume that the ones who took Fluttershy are armed and dangerous, so this is important if you ever find yourself in danger. Those who have unlocked their Mana reserves can summon special weapons from their own soul, most of which you will all have different ways of retrieving it. It's like a spirit animal sort of thing. Each Soul Weapon is different depending on who you are and what your soul is truly like. Summoning your Soul Weapon is easy, but they are by no means the same weapon. Let me show you mine." Crimson put his arm outwards and opened the palm of his hand, just as a small ball of light came out from it and floated a couple of centimeters away from it. Once done, Crimson took the ball of light as it materialized into something. A Crimson long bow that fires arrows made of pure energy. "This is my Soul Weapon, a Long Bow. Each of your soul weapons should have the same color as each and every one of you. They require no mana to summon and are completely indestructible, the only requirement is to unlock your mana reserves to actually make summoning possible. It's fairly easy, I'll show you how if you are having difficulty."
Suddenly, Rainbow Dash did as Crimson did, and was startled to find that a cyan double-bladed katana had materialized in her hand. It turned out Pinkie's Soul Weapon was a pink cannon, Rarity's a white switchblade, Applejack's an orange axe, Sunset's a yellowish-orange whip, and Spitfire had a yellow lance. But Circuit's weapon was the most impressive of all. It was grey, and it was a giant shuriken. "Whoa," he said, "This is incredible!" Sent from MAH BOI using DINNER
"Congratulations, you're all making awesome progress. And in such little time as well, may I add...." Crimson told the group. "Alright, I managed to sense of Fluttershy's aura. She's on the other side of town....somewhere....wait....hold on....ok. She's on the other side of town, I know where she is. Let's go rescue her." (Time-skip?)
All of them were about four hundred meters away from where Crimson sensed Fluttershy was, inside a derelict home surrounded by farmland with nothing around for miles and miles. There was guards on patrol, some of them happened to be carrying weaponry of sorts. Crimson looked at the derelict home from the top of a hill, hidden behind a bush next to a tree while the others were behind him. "They have Fluttershy as a hostage, but for what? These guards don't seem completely normal, they are carrying almost military-level weapons." Crimson told them quietly, through the convenient act of establishing a telepathic link between all the members of the group. "We might have stumbled onto something enormous, maybe a drug lab. Keep on guard."
The house to appear like an old ranch in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by hills and farmland. The closest highway was ten miles away, just able to be pinpointed if one looked close enough. There was a Sniper on the top floor while ten other guards were on patrol, all looking like hillbilly's. Crimson looked at the defences and spoke again telepathically. "I'm looking at the defences, they shouldn't have defences like this unless it was important." Crimson suddenly summoned his Long Bow as he looked at the others. "Get ready"
Crimson aimed the Long Bow and shot an arrow of pure energy at a parked pickup truck, causing it to explode on impact with a frightening amount of power and accuracy. Before the goons realised what happened, Crimson shot another arrow that went through the guy like a knife through butter. Crimson then slid down the hill, firing arrows at the goons. It was time to attack
Crimson slid down the hill with his bow, pulling it back until he shot another arrow of energy. The arrow was fired and split into three, easily finding their targets as they tore straight through its enemy. Crimson then dodged effortlessly to avoid a spray of bullets as he leaned backwards and fired aj arrow, killing the goon with a headshot.
Everyone wasted the enemy with their Soul Weapons, and they went into the house. Sent from MAH BOI using DINNER
With the enemy dead, the group headed inside of the house to rescue Fluttershy. From the cries of help they could hear, it was in the basement.
Everyone had their weapons at their ready as they headed down the basement door. "Fluttershy, you ok?"
