Nightfall looked her up and down quickly and got another evil twinkle in his eye.

"All right, Dash. I go first this time."

A second Nightfall jumped on Dash from behind and tried to tie her wings behind her back.

 

Taken by surprise, Rainbow Dash succesfully had her wings tied behind her back before she managed to buck off the second Nightfall. Then, she got angry, and lashed out at him, hooves flying with an intense speed.

The second Nightfall disappeared quickly and reappeared next to the first Nightfall.

"Now I guess we can say I have what is usually yours in the form on speed: an advantage."

The first Nightfall tried a swinging upper-cut as the second Nightfall jumped behind Dash again.

The first Nightfall tried a swinging upper-cut as the second Nightfall jumped behind Dash again.

 

Dash was quick, but couldn't take too much of a hit. Nonetheless, despite the uppercut she leaped up once more and struck out. However, she wasn't too good at understanding how to fight multiple of the same pony.

Dinnertime. Time to put my plan into action... I wonder if I could save her appendix? As the guard steps into Red's cell, she sees that the bars have been broken and a single word is scrawled on the wall; Goodbye. As her eyes widen in disbelief, an unseen hoof smashes her head into the corner of the door, and Red sneaks out, chuckling to himself. Edited August 10, 2012 by The Soldier

Luna came by to check on the prisoner Red Alert only to find him trying to make his escape! "AND WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?" Luna shouted to Red Alert from behind a corner while using a binding spell to hold him down. "You give me one good reason why I shouldn't just kill you right here on the spot!" She threatened Edited August 10, 2012 by ds8

The binding fizzles and goes out. Red pats his vest. "Magic-proof for just zat reason! See you." He tears off down the corridor and is gone.

The Nightfall behind her was grazed, but as he stepped backwards, he closed his eyes and started rising up until he was in an upright position with none of his hooves touching the ground. The Nightfall in front of her stepped back a bit, then rushed forward through Dash into the other Nightfall, knocking Dash around.

Nightfall, now back as one entity, landed on the ground, eyes open and half-squinted, a small smile on his face.

"Make your move, Dash..."

Dash didn't like the look on his face, so she slowly started to back away, and tried to wriggle out of the ropes that bound here.

 

"C'mon... just a little bit more..." Rainbow said. Eventually, the loops loosened a tad, and she started to get her wings free. "Just a little... more..."

Nightfall's smile faded into a frown, and he brought himself up to full height as he started striding a bit quickly towards Dash.

"Stay your ground! You dare to try to loosen your bonds? No more!"

Nightfall's horn began to glow as he tried to tighten Dash's wing bonds.

Nightfall's horn began to glow as he tried to tighten Dash's wing bonds.

 

Rainbow grimaced and the ropes bound tightly and painfully around her, and snorted in fury. "That's it!" she shouted indignantly. "No more missus nice pony!" She charged straight for Nightfall, rushing towards him at full speed.

Dash slammed into Nightfall. He slid on the ground, then flipped over and ended up landing on top of Dash, pinning her to the ground.

"Finally! Not so epic and tough without your wings, now, huh, Dash?"

Nightfall put his glowing horn across her neck.

"Now... just say surrender, and I won't have to injure you and your pride further."

"Alright, alright," Dash sighed. "I don't know how you won, though..." As soon as she was free, she flew off again, presumably to lick her wounds and practice a lot more.

 

Wits entered the area once more, this time followed by a masked pony, completely obscured from view by black armor.

 

"Last one," Wits said. "Make it a good one."

"Like I haven't done well enough?"

Nightfall looked this warrior up and down.

"Fine."

Two more Nightfalls stepped out of the crowd that had formed.

"All right, mysterious... knight? Mare?"

Nightfall looked at Wits, confused.

"Can I at least know it's gender?"

Nightfall looked at Wits, confused.

"Can I at least know it's gender?"

 

Wits called back. "If I was absolutely certain, I'd probably tell you."

 

The pony stood, still, silent, waiting for Nightfall's move. When it looked Nightfall looked at it nodded once, maybe a challenge, maybe a salute.

"Oh, come on!"

Nightfall paced a bit in exasperation, muttering to himself.

"Wits, if this is you.... or Rarity... Sweet Celestia..."

Nightfall stopped and looked at the pony. He got up close and examined the armor. He walked slowly around the pony until he was in front of it again.

"Wits... Truly, who is it?"

Nightfall stopped and looked at the pony. He got up close and examined the armor. He walked slowly around the pony until he was in front of it again.

"Wits... Truly, who is it?"

 

The pony was done waiting. With an insanely fast reaction, it went it for a quick, brutal swing, straight for the throat in metal tipped hooves.

 

"I doubt you've met before," Wits said. "Just keep calm and fight on."

"I doubt you've met before," Wits said. "Just keep calm and fight on."

 

Nightfall just barely dodged the hooves but falling flat on his back. It slightly knocked the wind out of Nightfall, and hurt his spine.

"And how am I supposed to relax when I'm fighting a pony I've never met and don't know how to fight?" He muttered.

"If you want my help, you're going to have to trust me!" Wits called out.

 

The pony started walking closer, and closer. The metal clanged and jangled with each step, but the joints were fairly well protected. It aimed a stomp at Nightfall.

Vinyl leaned over and whispered into Wits' ear, "Wits... Who... Or what is that?"

Vinyl leaned over and whispered into Wits' ear, "Wits... Who... Or what is that?"

 

Wits whispered back. "I'm not quite sure. All I know for certain is that it is the best fighter we have in the front, and that Nightfall has little to no chance of beating him without me."

Wits whispered back. "I'm not quite sure. All I know for certain is that it is the best fighter we have in the front, and that Nightfall has little to no chance of beating him without me."

 

"What! You're going to put Nightfall up against somepony who's possibly lethal, in the hopes that maybe, just maybe, he'll listen to you?!" she yelled at him in a hushed tone

"This is a training excercise. I bailed him out with Rainbow Dash, I can bail him out here, too. If push comes to shove, I've got other tricks up my sleeve, too."

[Nightfall 3,950]

Nightfall try to move away from the stomp, but it crushed his right forehoof. He felt the bone crunch, and knew he would have this injure for a good long time. He closed his eyes and gritted his teeth. He could only lie there, wondering if he could trust Wits.

The pony backed off slightly, then tilted its head, as if observing and waiting for Nightfall to react.

 

Wits used his magic, but cloaked it from onlooking ponies. A sharp pain shot through his hoof as Nightfall felt his hoof correct itself, becoming essentially good as new, if a little bit numb. Nightfall was free to stand up.

 

Wits said. "You might want to attack to begin with this time. Advantage and whatnot."

[Nightfall 3,950]

Nightfall sighed. He looked the pony up and down again.

"Wits, if you don't know who this is, why make them fight me? Are you trying to kill me?"

Nightfall got up and stumbled a bit. He opened his wings, and crouched down, ready to charge or dodge.
