Sneak peak: Old memories, Chapter nine

Well, as you might know I'm currently on vacation and not able to write too much, but I've got a sneak preview for you who read my blog. Here it is:

A young filly ran across the street. Her terrified eyes were filled with tears. Behind her, a faint multicolored trail was visible. In her mouth she had a shining red apple. Behind her, three colts. "Stop! Thief!" One of the colts took off and flew towards her. Just as he reached out, she turned hard left. A loud bang was heard as the colt flew into a market stand. Melons fell down, through the clouds down to their certain destruction.

One down, two to go. The other two colts were now also flying, and started to catch up. She could not fly yet herself, but her wings did allow her to glide fairly quickly. She jumped onto the back of a bypasser, and from there to one of the market stalls. One more jump and she would be on the rooftops. She spread her wings, and jumped. As quickly as she could she started flapping them. But it was not enough. The cloud wall came closer and closer, and she was not gaining altitude. Come on, just a bit higher... Come on stupid wings, FLY!

Just as she was about to hit the wall, a tingling feeling went down her spine, and into her wings. The wings, first just a couple small feathers, grew quickly in size, transforming into real wings capable of flying. All right!

She flapped her wings two more times, and was already far above the rooftop. The two colts following her were still closing in, though. She extended her legs in front of her, and flew up as quickly as she could, the two colts still right on her tail. Above her, there was a smal cloud. As a pegasus, she knew flying through one of those at this speed would be like running into a brick wall, unless you did it just right.

The two colts were now almost next to her, and started to come closer towards her. One leg extended in front of her, the other just behind it. Now all that was needed to get through the cloud was to spin her front hoof clockwise a bit. Or was it counter-clockwise? At full speed she flew into the cloud. Eyes closed, all she could do was hope she did it right.

Bam! A loud bang confirmed her fears, it was counter-clockwise, and not clockwise... The cloud had refused to give way and the two colts grabbed her. "You ain't going nowhere, Rainbow Crash. Filthy thief you are." The pain in her head started to get worse, and she lost consciousness.

(No markups, I can't import from gDocs like this. Had to copy-paste it.)

Well, I hope you liked it, more will come kinda maybe soonish, Saturday is the next possibility.
