Chapter 24 Devastated Canterlot The Lost Princess Immediate Neurosurgery Where Has Don Gone Crumbs Itenza Rested & Relaxed He's Ready For More Canterlot The sun was beginning to rise, light began filling the beautifully destroyed town of Canterlot. Mares and Colts gathered outside on the streets pondering what could've caused all of this damage. Long streaks of the ground where tore up the roads seemed almost untrotable. The Canterlot Hospital and Castle where both totally totaled, as well as several other buildings. Celestia lied in her bed as Spitfire slept on the floor she was suppose to be on guard duty, but then she just passed out. A big gaping hole in the side of Celestia's room caused bright blinding sunlight to shine inside hopefully awaking the Princess so she could address her ponies. However the blinding heavily heat filled sunlight wasn't enough to wake the Princess, not in her condition at least. Meanwhile in the central library books covered the entire floor it wasn't even visible no pony had a chance of trotting across the library. Twilight lied unconscious in the center of all of the scattered books she was drooling slobber all over a mysterious book. Part of the page that Twilight left off on was visible enough for me to read to you, the page that was partly covered in drool read. "Chapter 5 Ghastly Spells" ...Is what the top of the page read, how familiar... Spike was lying beside Twilight when suddenly the bubble that was hanging from his nose popped he bounced up quickly. Spike looked around as a spike of confusion loomed upon him. Spike unfortunately still didn't know how to speak so he couldn't express his confusion through his own words yet, so he decided to wake Twilight up so she could express his confusion for him. Spike quickly shook Twilight waking her up. Twilight bounced up into the air without knowing it she was floating there. "What, whats going on, where am I? Oh right I remember!" Twilight starred down to Spike who was guilty of waking her, Twilight looked around to the huge mess of books covering the floor. "Oops! did we do this?" Twilight landed next to Spike, "Thanks for waking me Spike I've got a lot to do today!" Twilight used magic to cause the book to levitate around her, Twilight turned to Spike. "Well... get on I'm gonna need your help!" Spike smiled as he happily hopped on Twilight's back. As soon as Spike was properly fastened in Twilight leaped across the room in a blaze of magical glory she landed. Twilight and Spike turned and looked both where amazed Twilight just leaped thirty feet or so across the room. "Whoa did I really do that, sweet!" Sweet Apple Acres Applejack and Pinky Pie lied in Applejack's bed, Applejack was dreading to face Big Mac or Granny. Pinky Pie rolled over falling out of the bed and crashing on to the floor. 'bang' "Owe! What's the big ideal!" Pinky Pie stood up and shook off her confusion she looked around, "Oh right we made it home last night I guess what I saw was just a dream." "APPLEJACK!" Pinky suddenly felt a overwhelming sense of fear over take her. "Oh my gosh!" Pinky Pie darted for the window. "PINKY PIE!" Applejack sat up feeling confused dizzy and afraid. "GET DOWN HERE NOW!" Applejack turned as she whipped her eyes clearing her blurry vision, only to see Pinky Pie trying to escape out the window. Applejack quickly flew out of bed and grabbed a hold of Pinky Pie's tail stopping her from leaving. "OWE! That hurts! Let go of me!" "Oh No! You don't I ain't taking all the heat for this!" Applejack dragged Pinky Pie downstairs and out the front door! Applejack was sweating bullets ever step she took the closer she drew to Big Mac and Granny. Before Applejack new it she was face to face with Big Mac who glared daggers at her as Pinky Pie attempted to hide behind Applejack. Big Mac took a breath. "Well..." Applejack did her best not to look him in the eye as she said, "I am so sorry!" "Your sorry, do you have any ideal how long it's gonna take to fix this, and in the mean time where will we store all of our farming equipment so it won't rust in the rain." Applejack was already starring into the ground she didn't know what say. Pinky Pie noticed how glum Applejack looked so she bounced into action. Pinky Pie pushed Applejack aside as she starred at Big Mac. "This mess isn't her fault... It's... It's mine I take full re..sp..on..sa..bul..ity!" Pinky attempted to sound out the word but she failed hilariously! Big Mac face hoofed hard leaving a mark in his face. "Well then Pinky your going to help fix the barn then!" "Okay!" Pinky Pie bounced off heading for the trail leading to Ponyvile. "Hoho where do you think your going!" "I'm going into to town to get supplies to fix the barn, we can't work without lumber and nails especially hammers where would we be without hammers." "Well alright then, ya'll hurry back now!" Big Mac turned to Applejack who was still looking pretty down in the dumps. "Applejack..." Applejack starred up to Big Mac with watery eyes. "I'm really, really, really, really, really sorry about the barn please don't hate me!" Big Mac sighed loudly blowing off a little steam. "I'm not mad and I could never hate you AJ, and besides the barn can be fixed over time." "But, I just don't want anything to happen to you, this crash looks pretty bad I mean your plan thingy is in pieces!" Applejack hugged Big Macintosh's leg, then suddenly the sound of snoring could be heard. Applejack and Big Mac turned to see Granny Smith snoring up something loud killing a few Z's!" Cloudsdale Hospital Colarine lied upside down against the wall snoring loudly Rainbow Dash was balled up in her covers snoring equally as loud. Soarin found it difficult to sleep with all of this racket. However Shining was snoring almost as loud enjoying his sleep. "Geez..." Soarin stood up and stretched his legs and wings. "I'm hungry I need to get something good to eat, and get the heck out of here!" Soarin looked over to a sleeping Colarine he almost wanted to wake her but he hesitated, "On second thought I could go for some hay fries and sandwiches, I'll save pie for later!" As Soarin approached the door a doctor walked in looking ready for surgery. Soarin stopped in front of the doctor. "Hey what's going on?" The doctor sighed then took a deep breath. "Myself as well as a few other doctors believe it best to perform an immediate neurosurgery, after reviewing the damage we have concluded that this is necessary, well at least for the left wing, the right should be fine." Soarin looked back to the filly peacefully resting on the bed, "OK! But shouldn't you wake Colarine first." "There's no time we have to do this now! Hence immediate." The doctor tried to push his way past Soarin who just stood his ground not letting him pass. "You have to tell Colarine she's her mother she needs to know!" "Fine I'll take Rainbow Dash to the operation room meanwhile you wake her and meet us there and hurry!" The doctor rolled Rainbow Dash's bed out of the room as Soarin attempted to gather himself. Soarin quickly turned and dashed across the room to Colarine, "Hey Colarine, Colarine wake up, come on get up Rainbow Dash is about to go into surgery..." Colarine jumped up knocking Soarin into the wall, Shining bounced up from the sudden crash. "Rainbow Dash! Surgery! What?" Colarine looked around to see Shining checking to see if Soarin was still alive Rainbow Dash was nowhere to be seen. Shining pulled Soarin up to his feet, Soarin ran for the door. "Hurry fallow me!" Colarine and Shining quickly followed behind Soarin. They tore through the hallways heading for Rainbow Dash, Colarine looked to Soarin with a frightened look on her face. "Soarin what are they going to do to my little Rainbow!" It took Soarin a moment to gather the confidence to say the words. "They want to do immediate Neurosurgery on Rainbow Dash's left wing it was apparently more severe than they first thought!" Colarine wasn't fully capable of expressing herself. "Oh my gosh! We have to hurry I need to be there!" Soarin looked back to see Shining was munching on some left over rose peddle chips. "What the heck... I'm starving over here and your hogging all the chips." Canterlot The ground was damp from recent rain fall, the smell of death was still evident in the air. Spitfire sat up not yet feeling the full force of what had happened last night. A single golden butterfly landed on top of the tip of Spitfire's nose, "So beautiful!" Celestia awoke to unfortunately feel the entire force of what had happened to her last night, it was devastating. The golden butterfly quickly scattered away as Celestia rolled over off her bed crashing to floor only to moan out in pain. "Ahh! Geez... My wings, my hooves, my face, it hurts all over." Spitfire ran over and assisted Celestia in standing up. "Spitfire... What's happened, where is Don and..." Celestia stood up to see something that was alomst unexplainable. "Why is there a gigantic gaping hole in the side of my room?" Spitfire stepped away from Celestia, "Well... that happened last night when Don was fighting that other human." "What? There was another human!" Spitfire shook her head in disagreement. "Actually there was two other humans." "Three, but then where has Don gone?" Spitfire stepped even further away from Celestia. "Well one of the other humans dragged Don down into a hole that appeared in the ground." "A hole, in the... Ground, what?" Celestia turned to face Spitfire who was on the opposite side of the room. "Did I hear that correctly, cause my ears are aching as well!" Spitfire nodded in confirmation, "There's something else..." Spitfire took a deep breath. "Your castle as well as the town of Canterlot... Has suffered severe damage." "It can't be that bad!" Celestia flew out of the hole in her room where her balcony usually was. Celestia almost lost sight in both of her eyes as she gazed out to the beautifully destroyed town the buildings looked as if they could crumble to pieces at any moment. Celestia flew higher into the air despite the pain that was coursing through her body. "Oh my gosh!" Celestia starred at her castle it appeared as if it would slide down the mountain side if you where to sneeze at the wrong time. "What happened, Don you couldn't have had anything to do with this!" Celestia looked down to the little town in shambles. "But still the damage is too great to be anything short of abnormal, no pony could cause such destruction." Spitfire flew out to Celestia, "Well what now you need to address every pony and let them know that everything is going to be OK!" "What and lie to them, everything isn't going to be OK!" Celestia's eyes widened as Itenza's power source was closing in on her. Spitfire seemed almost frightened by Celestia's appearance she was sweating bullets like crazy. "Umm... Are you alright Princess Celestia?" Celestia shook her head in disagreement. "No, I'm not!" "He's coming! This isn't good I'm in no condition to fight, if only Cadenza was here to heal me!" "What are you talking about, who's coming?" Celestia turned to Spitfire. "It's Itenza he's back for more!" "You mean that despicable dragon that Don kicked the crap out of!" Celestia nodded in agreement. Finally it hit Celestia like a ton of rolling stones. "Princess Celestia I'm going to go get Soarin and the rest of the Wonderbolts I'll be back shortly!" Spitfire flew off in a blaze of burning inferno. "I have to hurry if Celestia is this freaked out then we're gonna need all the help we can get!" Celestia turned and quickly flew in the direction of the EverFree Forest. "I have to hurry, not much time left, I'm on a ticking clock as well!" Cloudsdale Hospital Spitfire landed in the docking bay she put on a pair of flight goggles and pulled a lever. Suddenly alarms began ringing loudly all throughout Cloudsdale. Several Wonderbolts began flying out Spitfire didn't even have time to catch her breath let along put on her uniform. Colarine and Shining stood outside of the operating room Soarin heard the alarms and quickly ran for the exit. Colarine turned and grabbed Soarin's tail. "WAIT!" Soarin let out a scream of pain. "Agh!" "Let go that hurts!" "No, where are you going, don't leave!" Soarin looked back to Colarine his eyes where filled with regret. "I'm sorry Colarine but you know what those sirens mean." Shining stepped up beside of Soarin, "I don't know what they mean, what do that mean?" Soarin stopped struggling he realized Colarine would not let go, he took a breath. "Those sirens mean a red alert has been put out, the Wonderbolts are being scrambled and summoned by the Princess!" "Now let me go, I gotta go!" Colarine loosened her grip, letting Soarin go. "You better come back!" Soarin flew towards the exit at a rapidly increasing speed, "I will count on it, I'm looking forward to eating your delicious pie's again!" Colarine turned back to starring through a tiny window looking in to the doctors who where doing there doctor stuff. "Oh! Rainbow Dash, please be alright!" Shining offered Colarine the last of the Ross peddle chips, Colarine starred down to the empty bag with maybe a few crumbs in it. "No thanks I'm good, I'm not hungry anyway." Shining backed away from Colarine slowly. Above Cloudsdale Soarin flew up to join the rest of the Wonderbolts, Spitfire was already giving orders when she noticed he'd arrived. "Soarin! What took you so long?" "I was busy with your sister and your niece at the hospital!" "Oh, and how is the little squirt?" "Well, to put it bluntly if the operation that's being performed on her as we speak fails she'll never fly again!" "WHAAAT!" "Oh gosh! Geez! I'm right here you know there's no need to scream! I think my ear is bleeding." "I don't understand Don caught her she should be fine, shouldn't she?" Spitfire seemed more concerned for Rainbow Dash than she did about Itenza's return. "No, apparently her left wing suffered more severe damage cause it was injured in a later accident." "That's terrible!" "I knew I should've just stopped her but no I had to go all out, but Don went all out too how could this have happened." "Hey now I'm sure she'll be fine!" "But enough about harsh times to come what's happening here why are we being scrambled?" Spitfire sighed! "Well it's Itenza, that dragon from a few days ago he's back and ready to cause more mayhem and destruction." "Princess Celestia seemed really worried I told her that I would get the Wonderbolts together and we would fight with her!" "Fight... with her, but won't we just get in the way, I mean what can we really do!" "Hey speak for yourself I got this in the bag, but this is for Celestia now let's get ready we are moving out in one minute." Outskirts of Manehatten Cadenza washed ashore with a massive lack of energy, she was unconscious and wounded to boot. Borders of Equestria Itenza flew fast passing over top of the borders. "I'm coming for you Don, and this time I'll end you!" EverFree Forest Celestia stood before a castle that was very much worn down, "Well this is it, I haven't been here since I last used them?" Celestia walked inside the castle slowly caution evident in her movements. "I hope this works if it doesn't... then we are all doomed!" Celestia began sweating as she slowed her breathing she closed her eyes her unicorn horn glowed brightly. Suddenly a large very bright blinding huge gigantic ray of light shot up out of the castle filling the sky. Skies of Equestria Spitfire and Soarin as well as several other Wonderbolts charged Itenza. Itenza just starred at the group of Wonderbolts flying towards him, he was yawning to there unformidable presence. "I guess this is as good of a warm that I'm going to get!" Spitfire flew behind Itenza and used all of her strength to kick him in the ass, her kick sent him flying towards Soarin. Itenza wasn't expecting that not from a little fragile thing such as Spitfire. Soarin as well as two other Wonderbolts spun around in in circle forming a funnel that suckled Itenza up into spinning him around at a rapidly increasing speed. As Itenza flew around and around trying to hold onto his launch he managed to speak ."This... Isn't... Exactly... What... I... Had... In... Mind!" "Well don't get to comfortable the fun has just begun." Soarin said in a maliciously evil tone of voice. Suddenly the three Wonderbolts in the funnel spat Itenza out sending him cutting through air back at Spitfire who was ready for round two. One of the Wonderbolt's grabbed spitfire slinging her around and around until she reached a certain velocity then they let go of her. Spitfire tore through air leaving fire in her wake, she was hurdling towards Itenza who was totally at a lose for words. "No way!" "Yes way!" Spitfire said with a slight giggle. Spitfire crashed into Itenza a shockwave of magic and fire exploded out. Spitfire hovered in the center of the explosion, as Itenza fell slowly to the ground. Soarin and Spitfire held there breath waiting for the bang, 'CRASH!' "Yes, oh yeah we did it, oh yeah we are the best, oh! That's what I'm talking about." Sptifre yelled to every pony. Soarin as well as the rest of the Wonderbolts gather around Spitfire. "Wow! Celestia was worried that she couldn't take him down, well we just whipped the floor with him." Soarin and Spitfire high hooved one another, "Oh! YEAH!" Then suddenly the ground began shaking. The sky suddenly dimmed, lava shot up out of the ground where Itenza had crashed landed. The Wonderbolts quickly dove in all directions trying to avoid being burnt to a crunchy crisp, it was as if the lava was aimed at them, clearly it was. Itenza rose out of the lava spout with evil intentions on his mind. "That was fun, you little runt knocked that knot out of my left shoulder, just for that I'll kill you quickly!" The lava spout died down the sky brightened again, the Wonderbolts converged together to form a new plan. Itenza took a deep breath swallowing air, "I can't wait to eat I've been dying for some chicken!" Itenza exhaled breathing red fiery flames of fire onto the Wonderbolts who quickly scattered in all directions again, attempted to avoid becoming last minute take out. Spitfire and Soarin however did not they flew circles around the wave of fire funneling it back at Itenza. Itenza quickly raised his right arm creating a anti flame shield around himself, the moment the flames touched the shield they designated into a puff of smoke. "Is that all you've got, redirecting my attack back at me, no one has ever done that before!" Soarin looked to Spitfire with an unsettling look on his face. "Well captain what now?" Spitfire seemed confused almost afraid even she began sweating. And it wasn't just because it was hot outside you know with all the flames and lava, rays of heat from the sun that wasn't making her sweat at all. Spitfire turned to Soarin, "Well... I'm not... Entirely sure... On what to do next?" Soarin sighed. "We could run away..." Spitfire felt like slapping Soarin. "What? I mean we could run away to fight another day!" "YOU IDIOT! Just what Exactly wood we be fighting for if we ran away now, I'll tell you what, it would be nothing!" "Well! Geez! It was just a suggestion!" Spitfire crisscrossed her hooves. "A stupid suggestion." "Oh! Like you got any better and brighter ideals, you know my ideal makes sense!" Itenza as well as the rest of the Wonderbolts watched as Spitfire and Soarin fought one another they where bickering to there fullest. Suddenly a bright blue and white ball of magic appeared before Itenza. Spitfire and Soarin stopped long enough to see what was up. Itenza lowered his sun glasses. "Oh! You look to pose quite a challenge!" Finally it hit him. "Wait a second your..." Princess Celestia hovered in front of Itenza, she wore a necklace with six mysteriously powerful glowing pendants on it. "Itenza your going down, here and now!" Celestia stated boldly and without fear. End of Chapter 24
