The bats prove to be quick little opponents, darting in and out of range and around one another, doing everything they can to dish out damage without actually being hit. Some of them are able to do just that. Jeeves' aim is off, and the bats that don't collide with one another hit him with a punishing screech; Kanji's Meowjesty takes up a lot of space but can't move quickly enough to hit the smaller airborne targets without fear of hitting its person, so the bats hit it with a drain attack; Plum isn't having too much success either and receives a sonic attack to the face for its trouble; and Aqua's Komory Bat is ganged up on by several of its Nightmare counterparts and receives several drain attacks, dropping it to the ground.
Fortunately, not all the bats are agile enough to get out of the way. Toothy clamps his jaws on one Nightmare's wings, which results in a Hebby Repp being dragged around the battle by a panicking Nightmare Komory Bat; Rarity's hit is dead on, and one of the bats shatters while the other one flies in dazed circles; Dizzy blasts his opponent out of the sky and into pieces; Hero's galloping knocks half a dozen bats off-course; Setsuna knocks several bats out of the sky with the Garnet Rod; and Amaterasu's beads strike three bats in quick succession, shattering each of them. Additionally, Chell is able to get through the swarm of bats unharmed.
Aqua's magnet spell is a huge success, gathering most of the bats in the battle into a large clump near the center of the clearing (and unfortunately causing Kanji and Phoebe to miss their last few hits as the Nightmares they were targeting are pulled out of range). Aqua's Pricklemane launches itself straight at the clump, taking out half a dozen bats in one go; Luna's magic blast is perfectly targeted and blasts a dozen Nightmares into pieces.
The bats on the outer rim of the spell begin to escape its clutches and return to attacking people along with those that were never gathered by the spell in the first place. Celestia's magic ground shield is still in place, but Nightmare Moon is nowhere to be seen and there are still plenty of bats to contend with.
