The adrenaline coursing through his system; the rush of wind through his handsome blue mane; the crunch of hard concrete beneath his thundering hooves; the pounding in his ears as his strong heart worked to pump blood through his entire body; the pegasus had never felt so alive.
The pegasus colt opened his bright blue eyes again and focused, dodging and weaving between a crowd of confused city ponies. He glanced behind him, seeing the two armored unicorns still hot on his tail, firing golden lances of magic from their horns. He grinned at them before looking forward to find himself facing the brick wall of a tall building, cutting off his escape. He could hear a brick sizzling after being struck by one of the stun spells aimed at him.
Turning around, the cloaked colt faced the two pursuing officers, who held their ground and prepared another volley of stun spells. To their chagrin, the colt held fast his cocky grin, and when they let their spells free, they struck the brick harmlessly again as the colt took to the sky, long gray wings spreading out from underneath his ebony cloak. He raised a hoof to his head and saluted them, before turning tail and flying away.
Ah, now this is where he really belonged. Basking in his brilliant escape, the pegasus took a moment to take a deep breath of the chilly night air, his chest swelling as his lungs filled. He glanced up at the moon, and blew it a kiss, stretching out his wings and ascending higher. The glowing celestial entity filled the pegasus with such inspiration that he pursed his lips and began to whistle a tune from his foalhood.
A new noise began to drown out the colt’s cheerful whistling; a sickening sizzle. Time seemed to slow when the colt turned his head to find his right wing frozen stiff, completely unresponsive to his nervous impulses. His ascent quickly turned into a descent as gravity took over, pulling the panicking pegasus down to earth. The last thing the paralyzed pony experienced before unconsciousness was the pain of most of the bones in the right side of his body shattering upon impact with the city streets.
