//------------------------------// // Chapter 2: A Normal Afternoon // Story: All I Wanted was Money for a Pizza! // by Bahamut0 //------------------------------// The school day had ended, and Sweeite Bell was walking with her friends. "So your sister's boyfriend is watching you until your parents get home?", Scootaloo asked. "And he's the same guy who won the school's tournament AND faced off against Burst in that awesome duel?!" "That's Inferno all right. He's also taking me home today. There he is now!" Sweetie Bell ran up to Inferno, and he smiled that she was happy to see him. "Hi Inferno!" "Hey Sweetie. Ready to head home?" "Uh-huh. So how're we getting there?" Inferno smiled as he pulled out Red Eyes. "Red Eyes Black Dragon!" A portal opened and Red Eyes Black Dragon came through. But when he landed, he was holding a Red Eyes Black Chick in his hands. "Hey there Inferno! Sorry for the extra passenger. I've gotta watch my baby sister." "No problem buddy. So Sweetie Bell? Ever ride a dragon before?" "Cool! Later you two!" The two of them boarded Red Eyes and flew off to Sweetie Bell's home. As they landed however, they had no idea they were being watched. Suri was keeping an eye on them. "Perfect. My minions will kidnap Sweetie Bell and then Rarity will have to face me in a duel! My new deck will put her gem knights to shame!" Inferno and Sweetie Bell had invited Red Eyes and Red Eyes Black Chick in. "On second thought, this is going to be harder than I thought." Suri then turned to her minion who she had dressed up like power ranger minion rejects. "Okay. Here's what we gotta do now..." Meanwhile, Sweetie was busy playing with Red Eyes Black Chick. The little dragon seemed to really like her, and was even perched on her head as she nuzzled Sweeite. "Hehehe! That tickles!", Sweetie giggled. Red Eyes Black Chick chirped as she and Sweetie continued to play. Meanwhile, Inferno was looking over his deck while Red Eyes was fixing himself a snack. Inferno smiled at Sweetie playing with Red Eyes Black Chick. "If that isn't cute I don't know what is." Suddenly, Red Eyes sniffed the air and his eyes narrowed. "Inferno. I think we're about to have some uninvited guests." Inferno was about to ask what he meant when he heard a megaphone go off. "Attention babysitter! Surrender Sweetie Bell and come quietly!", Suir yelled. "Or face off against my minions!" Suri's minions struck a bunch of poses right out of power rangers. Inferno opened the door to get a good look at his possible opponents. Sweetie was peeking from behind Inferno. Inferno frowned at Suri's presence. "You know Suri. It was bad enough you've tried stealing Rarity's designs. Now you dress up your minions so badly? You're the worst villain ever. And that's a bad thing." The statement was so true even the minions were arguing the fact. "Yeah. I mean, why did you have to dress us up like rejected power rangers minions?" "Just shut up and attack them!" The minions shrugged and charged at Inferno! But as the first one got close, Inferno sent him flying with one punch! 'Reference time.', Inferno thought. "ONE PUUUNCH!", he screamed as he sent the minion flying! The minion's jaws dropped at the sight! "Next?" Inferno then got into a fighting stance with his sword! The minions ran off! "Looks like its just you and me Suri." "Not for long.." Suri summoned a bunch of Fright Fur monsters! "What're you gonna do now?" Red Eyes flew right out the door and released a fearsome roar! As Suri and her monster minions' ears were recovering, Inferno picked up Sweetie Bell, jumped onto Red Eyes and they took off! "Next stop, anywhere but the last one!", Red Eyes shouted as he flew off! "Sweetie Bell. I'm so sorry this thing's going out of control.", Inferno apologized. "Well, at least I'll have a good story to tell my friends.", Sweetie said with a small smile. Inferno smiled in return.
