Rainbow Dash & Fluttershy *For those who'd like to get a better understanding of Grimm Smiles, here's a link to what she looks like c: Grimm Smiles* __________________________________________________________________________________________ The sky became dark and cloudy due to the release of Pinkamena's energy. Ponies flustered all around in panic and fled into their homes for safety. Rainbow Dash flew in from the sky holding Grimm, and threw her violently into The Carousel Boutique. Grimm grit her teeth harder and took the impact, falling down shortly after with debris on top of her. "Grimm!" Lilith said, running into the area and using her magic to lift the debris off Grimm. "Are you alright?" "HeHe... yes I'm fine..." Grimm said. "T-Thank you for helping me... Lilith was it? HeHe... I was surprised that you came after me..." "Why wouldn't I? We're friends aren't we?" Lilith said happily. "Just because I was possessed doesn't mean I couldn't hear things. I heard the whole conversation between you and the others... and I see no reason why we can't be friends." "Oh HeHe... really? I don't... know what to say." Grimm said. "I actually have HeHe... ponies who want to be my friend..." Lilith smiled at Grimm, and then she immediately turned around, noticing Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy landing on the ground opposite of them. "Why are you guys helping Pinkamena?" Lilith yelled. "OBEY." Rainbow Dash said, with a demonic voice. "OBEY. OBEY. OBEY." "What the heck is wrong with them?" Lilith asked. "They're clearly under Pinkamena's control HeHe..." Grimm said. "I don't think we have any other choice but to fight them HeHe..." "Seriously!? That's the only option!?" Lilith said sadly. "I... don't really get myself in situations like this since I tend to avoid others HeHe..." Grimm said. "But I see no other way..." "I guess so... but what do we-" Lilith stopped. "OBEY." Fluttershy screamed, bolting towards Lilith at breakneck speed and lifting her hooves over her head. "How did she-" Lilith stopped. "OBEY." Fluttershy continued, bringing her hooves crashing down on top of Lilith with all her power. "GAHHHH!" Lilith screamed, her back shattered from Fluttershy's attack. "Lilith!" Grimm yelled. Fluttershy turned to Grimm and started to walk towards her. "OBEY. OBEY. OBEY." Fluttershy said. Rainbow Dash appeared at Fluttershy's side and chanted along with her. Both of the corrupted ponies lifted their hooves and started to attack Grimm with all their might. "No!" Lilith yelled, standing in front of Grimm and holding back their attacks. "I... won't let you... hurt my... friend!" Lilith released a shock wave and sent Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy flying back. Exhausting herself and suffering from the excruciating pain that she received from Fluttershy, she collapsed to the floor. "Lilith! Are you going to be alright? HeHe..." Grimm cried. "Heh... don't worry about me Grimm... I'll be fine hopefully..." Lilith said weakly. "If I was at full strength... I could do more than this... but I'm still recovering from being possessed by Pinkamena... but I'm glad that I was able to protect you... at least once." Grimm put her hoof on Lilith's body and looked at the possessed ponies. "OBEY. OBEY. OBEY." Rainbow and Flutters chanted, as they sped towards Grimm and Lilith. "Don't worry Lilith HeHe..." Grimm said angrily, turning around and grabbing both of the ponies by their necks. "I promise that I won't let these two hurt you anymore HeHe..." "OBEY. OBEY. OBEY." Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy repeated, as they struggled to get out. "Is that all you can say? HeHe..." Grimm said. "That's funny... but now I'm actually pretty mad... so let's have some fun shall we?" Grimm threw Rainbow Dash into The Carousal Boutique with extraordinary power, causing a vast majority of the building to collapse. She looked at the squirming Fluttershy in her other hoof and her grin extended across her face. Grimm raised Fluttershy in the air and brought her crashing down to the ground, lifting her up and repeating it multiple times until she decided to throw her into the debris of building. Rainbow Dash emerged from the debris and tackled Grimm, flying upwards with her and then back down at insane speeds. She released her grip just before she was about to hit the ground and sent Grimm plummeting down. Fluttershy recovered and followed up swiftly by biting Grimm's tail and spinning her around until she released her grip towards Rainbow, who then punched Grimm straight in the face, sending her tumbling back. "Okay HeHe... now I've had it up to here with you guys..." Grimm said. Fluttershy flew towards Grimm and extended her hoof out to punch her. "OBEY." Grimm raised her hoof and caught Fluttershy, gripping her hoof intensely. Grimm looked at Fluttershy, and threw her to the ground, sitting on her stomach and punching her relentlessly in face over and over again. Blood started to cover Fluttershy's face as it splattered with every hit Grimm delivered. "OBEY." Rainbow Dash yelled, flying towards Grimm and about to tackle her. "Not so fast!..." Lilith cried, still lying on the ground, she used her magic to suspend Rainbow Dash in flight, and then throw her back into the debris of the building. "I won't let you interrupt..." Grimm looked over at Lilith happily, and then got up from Fluttershy's stomach. The yellow pony struggled to get up, but the amount of pain was too much to even move anymore. Grimm clenched her hoof as hard as she could and then looked down at Fluttershy. "Let's see how you like it HeHe..." Grimm said, raising her hoof up and bringing it crashing down on Fluttershy's stomach. The yellow pony let out an ear-piercing scream as she felt her insides crushed. After a few seconds of screaming, Fluttershy's head fell to the ground as she passed out from the unbearable pain. Rainbow Dash got up from the debris once again and charged Grimm, catching her off guard. "I don't have anytime to react!..." Grimm thought. But before Rainbow Dash could do anything, the amulet around Fluttershy's neck shattered, and a sharp pain filled Rainbow's head. "GAHHHHHHHHH!" Rainbow Dash screamed, as she contorted on the ground from the intense pain. Surprised, Grimm took this opportunity to finish her off right here and now. She picked up Rainbow Dash, who was still writhing in pain, and brought her up towards her face. She smiled widely, moved her head back and headbutt Rainbow Dash right in the forehead. The impact dropped Rainbow to the ground, as she held her face with her hooves and cried as blood rushed down her face. Grimm walked over and clenched her hoof, getting ready to do the same thing that she did to Fluttershy. But before she could, she felt a tug on her tail and noticed that it was Lilith, who had limped over to her. "So you think... I could have this one?" Lilith asked. "HeHe... I don't see why not." Grimm said happily. "Just make sure it's not fatal HeHe..." "You're one to talk... I'm pretty sure Fluttershy is going to have a hard time recovering over there since you smashed in her organs..." Lilith laughed. "HeHe... fine fine, do what you will... just try not to kill her." Grimm said happily. Lilith looked at Rainbow Dash and picked her up with her magic. She stretched out her limbs and started to twist them, the sound of bones popping and cracking was so vivid, and Rainbow Dash's eyes swelled up in tears as she screamed profusely. "OBEY. OBEY. OBEY." Rainbow Dash cried. "Shut up already!" Lilith said, twisting more of Rainbow's bones until the pain was too great to handle and she passed out on the spot. Lilith dropped Rainbow Dash to the floor, and the amulet around her neck shattered shortly after. "You were something else Grimm." Lilith said. "But I always had faith that you could do it." "HeHe... thanks Lilith." Grimm said. "I don't know if I would have been able to do any of this without you here..." Lilith smiled, but then fell to the ground, as she was still in pain from Fluttershy's attack. "You're still hurt aren't you?" Grimm said, sitting next to Lilith. "HeHe... just sit and rest for now, we've done what we can for now..." Yea... you're right..." Lilith said weakly. "Hopefully... the others can handle the rest of it..."
