//------------------------------// // Chapter 4 // Story: The Pony Adventures: Final War // by YellowHornBrony //------------------------------// I was tossed into the cell and landed on my broken hoof. The doctors had taken a look at it and wrapped it. The guards then proceeded to throw me into a cell with Energizer. “So here we are” Energizer said. “Yep,” I said, “But I know how we can escape.” “You do?” He asked. “Kinda,” I said, “Do you happen to have that morpher I gave you?” “Yeah, why?” He asked. “Well” I said, sitting down and pulling my morpher out, “It’s Morphin’ Time.” I transformed into my yellow suit. I may have only had three hooves, but I could still fight. “I understand now,” He said, “It’s Morphin’ Time.” He transformed into a cyan suit. “Welcome to the team, Blue Ranger,” I said, “Now pull out your weapon and blow that door down.” He pulled out a whip, and slashed at the cell door, cutting clean through it. He bucked the steel, and it went flying. The alarms sounded. “Grab this magic dampener off my horn and I’ll untie that rope around your wings” I said. He used his teeth to pulled the dampener. I activated my horn and untied the rope. “Now, we get Vinyl and Octavia out” I said. I looked at the cell across from us. A lycan stood there trying to tear the door down, with no effect. Vinyl was using her hooves to try to pull the bars apart with super strength. I pulled my sword out using magic and pul two clean cuts into the bars. The broke immediately. Vinyl and Octavia stepped through. We saw a horde of guards coming. I activate my horn and teleported behind them. I used my magic to throw me up into the air and dropped my hoof on the ground as hard as I could, sending guards flying. Octavia charged two of the guards and clotheslined them, knocking them down. VInyl bit their necks, making them pass out. Energizer wrapped his whip around the rest and game them a powerful enough shock to knock them out. “Now we go” I said. I teleported us up to the main throne room. At least fifty guards, Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, Princess Twilight, Princess Cadence, and SHining Armor stood there with spears. I looked behind me. The night guards and Moonlight stood behind us. To my left I saw Flash and the sun guards. To my right I saw my ex-team of guards. The guards charged at us. I demorphed and bit necks and kicked around some guards, shooting magic blasts. Vinyl did the same thing except with more ferocity, Octavia literally picked up a group of them and threw them at more guards. Energizer blasted out an electric pulse that took all the guards out. SHining charged at me. I tackled him and pulled my sword out, aiming it at him. He gave up. “Enough!” Celestia roared in the royal Canterlot voice. I let him up. “Princess,” I said, bowing, “Please forgive me, I do not wish to hurt anypony, other than Sombra, I just wish to get out of that dungeon.” “Dungeon?” She asked. “Yes, they were imprisoned down there” Shining said. “You imprisoned Equestria’s greatest DJ, one of my royal musicians, and two children?” She asked, “I am ashamed of you, Shining.” “But, Princess-” He said. “No buts!” She said, “And Twilight, Silver will regain his role as captain of your guard, if you do not wish to lose your entire army.” “What?!” She asked, dumbfounded. “Well, clearly a pony who can lead a team of faur that can take out an entire team of 200 guards should be captain, should he not?” Celestia asked. “You have a point” Twilight said. “Finally, my job back,” I said, “Well, first things first, I want all of the guards medically treated, four medics hiding behind the throne. Secondly, I need to get into a special room you Princesses call the Princess Magic Room. “What?!” Cadence said, “You can’t go in there!” “There is a forbidden spell I’m going to need to banish Sombra,” I said, “That is, if you don’t want to all die.” “Yeah, we should evade that” Celestia said. “But Aunty!” Cadence said. “Now, now Cadence,” Celestia said, “If you don’t want to die, I’d listen.” “Fine, but don’t touch anything!” Cadence said. I walked to the room behind her throne. I opened the door and went inside. I checked the spells for the Anti-Umbra spell. I found it. I walked back out. “Did you find what you were looking for?” An upset Cadence asked. “Yep,” I said, “And in 3… 2… 1…” Sombra burst through the door. I activated the spell and used it on him. He exploded into light. Five ponies fell. “Hang on a minute,” I said, “There should only be four.” Then I saw it. I saw Sombra. But his horn wasn’t red. His cutie mark was a single red crystal. He didn’t have magic coming from his eyes. “What’s going on?” Sombra asked. “Oh my Celestia!” I said, “He doesn’t remember!” “Huh?” He asked. “My brother!” An old unicorn said running into the room from nowhere. “Starswirl?” He asked the old pony. “Brother, what is going on?” He asked. “I don’t know” Sombra said. “I can tell you what’s happening,” A disembodied voice said, “But, it’ll cost ya.” “Shut the buck up Discord,” I said, “Just tell us.” “Fine,” he said, appearing in front of us, “He had the darkness literally removed from his body. He can’t remember because he had no control over his own body. Also, I have good news! I fixed your quill. It won’t transform you, but you can get back to work. Also, your rangers seem to be fine. But I would take a closer look at Sweetie, she seems like there’s something wrong.” “What?!” I said running up to Sweetie Belle. I checked her vitals. They were normal. I checked her forehead, she was on fire. “S-Silver?” She asked. “Yes, I’m here,” I said, “What happened?” “Sombra tortured us,” She said, looking down at my hoof, “What happened to you?” “Chrysalis broke my hoof. I also had a loss of wings” I said. “What?!” She asked, checking over me, “What’re you doing here fighting?!” “Escaping a dungeon, taking out the entire force of guards lying on the floor and saving my fillyfriend,” I said, “What else would I be doing?” “Dungeon?” She asked. “I’ll tell you later,” I said, “Hey, you wouldn’t happen to know where Tirek is, would you?” “Yeah,” She said, “He’s headed to Canterlot.” “I have guards stationed there, but they won’t last long” Celestia said. “Then we’ll have to go,” I said, “Sweetie Belle, I know you’re sick, but do you think you can fight?” “Of course” She said. “Get the other rangers up,” I said, “We’re going to fight.”
