The two stood, alone, ready for anything. Harkyme took a deep breath and smelt smoke in the air. As the air thickened, Star whispered, "It's here."
And it was. In this battle the Fire took the form of a wolf, as it usually did. The enflamed canine looked them both in the eye, fangs showing. It howled suddenly, but got no responce from either Star or Harkyme.
Time moved so slowly as the Fire galloped towards them. Star stood still as Harkyme mounted SteamSong. The two of them galloped towards them, Harkyme's hunter green magic flickered for a moment, when the wolve was in mid-attack. SteamSong reared and flailed his front hooves, his wings spread over twenty feet. Harkyme clutched his silvery mane, his eyes tightly closed while he readyed to perform his next spell. Star just stood and watched as SteamSong's blue black hooves repeatedly struck the Fire, who in return barked and yelped loudly and counter attacked Steam's belly. But the horse was well trained, and did not stop. Suddenly Star saw magic fly overhead. Finally, Harkyme had cast his spell, but... that wasn't the green color his magic usually is. Star screamed, and threw her magic at the Fire. It yelped and Steam stood back on all four. Harkyme took the moment to his advantage and struck the Fire with a great spell. Instead of being the usual color of fire, the wolf was now dark purple. Star made a anti-magic spell on the wolf, knowing it would fail. She put her life through the magic, trying to protect her lover. After a few minutes of holding the spell, the magic drained her strength, and she passed out.
