The War on Sombra

by MaskedFlame073


Defending the Camp

As Rainbow Dash ran out of the tent, a pegasus crash landed in front of her, scarcely missing her. She jumped back in surprise before looking down at it. The pegasus was one of Sombra's soldiers, the helmet cracked from a strong kick. Rainbow grinned, and said, "Good riddance." The fallen pegasus groaned as the helmet fell off. Rainbow cocked her head to the side as the stallion opened his eyes.

"Wha-...where am I?" He tried to get up, but as he started to stand, a loud crack sounded and he fell down, screaming in pain. Panicked, confused, and scared (but not outwardly showing it), Rainbow picked him up and flew him into a medical tent.

"Rainbow! What? Who?" Booker yelled, startled at her sudden entrance. He looked between her and the stallion, and after a moment's hesitation, said, "Put him on that stretcher, I'll fix him up. You go help defend the camp!" He said, pointing out. Rainbow nodded, gently setting the wounded stallion onto a stretcher and flying out of the tent as fast as she dared with her mechanical wing.

She shot up into the air, breathing heavily. Looking down, she saw a small legion of soldiers coming from the horizon. "Reinforcements," She muttered, shooting off toward them. The leader looked up, saw her, and pointed. All of the others looked as Rainbow smirked. "Surprise!" She yelled, shooting down toward them and kicking one in the chest, causing a domino-effect of Sombra's soldiers falling over. With a giggle, she shot back up into the air.

"Rainbow! Where are you?!" Spitfire yelled into her intercom as she fought a group of soldiers.

"Taking out some reinforcements! You guys doing okay over there?" She asked as she dove for the leader. She grabbed him around his chest and soared high into the sky, grinning.

"Just dandy, thanks!" Spitfire said, sarcasm dripping in her voice. "We're only facing a full-scale attack on the camp, only a few hundred soldiers!" She said as she finished off the last of the group that was attacking her.

"Well just be glad that's all you have to deal with!" Rainbow said, dropping the stallion. As he fell, Rainbow dove in for another attack on the reinforcements. She started circling them as fast as she could, eventually creating a tornado. It sucked all the reinforcements in and shot them into the air. As they hit the ground, Rainbow landed. "That takes care of that," She said, speeding back toward camp.
