Flying Dreams Are One Second From Falling Dreams [closed]

[letteropener]

Who: Princess Celestia, Trunks, Mai, Reisi, Chikusa, with appearances from Kairi
When: September 18
Where: The skies.
What: Celestia takes the existence of a dream-twisting ayakashi rather personally, and sets into the sky to see it struck down.



"We shall need to venture into the skies to take on this ayakashi," Celestia said to the group, like a general mustering her troops (or, perhaps, a Princess mustering her guard). "To that extent, I will need to grant flight to those of you who need it. I fear I cannot carry all of you on my back, after all."

She was only one pony.

Mai gave a soft gasp as Trunks' vessel form appeared in her hands, with it coming all the perks of wielding such a weapon so perfect to her needs.

Her eyes closed for half a second, and when they opened, she saw the world so much clearer. Speeds normally too fast for even her godly eyes played out in a way she could see every move. But what was new this time...was the feeling of being suspended in air. As if Trunks were still carrying her, despite no longer possessing a body.

There was little time to dwell on the sensation, however. The pair rushed forward as one, and she held the sword up and ready to strike.

Even in the air, the ayakashi never had time to move before she brought Trunks down in a single, swift motion. Effectively rending the creature in two.

....And that was that.

Chikusa doesn't sink back against the platforms immediately. Instead, he stays where he is, tense and waiting. His gaze flicks around, taking in everything in case there's something one of them has missed. That was a textbook perfect Rend... but paranoia with illusions is never a bad thing.

So he waits for both the all clear from others and also his own self.
