Chapter five.
Talking: "..."
Thinking: '...'
Disclaimer: I do not own MLP that right goes to Hasbro, and Lauren Faust. The Fan-fiction idea is mine though. Btw it's in an alternate universe.
"Oh no..." Dawn Seeker's eyes widen running over to a young roan red mare, who's mixed blue mane was now coated in crimson red blood. "Finder, come on hang in there!" He pleaded, as the blind green eyes looked at him.
Finder smiled a bit, even though she was barely able to move. "Heh, it seems a mecha got me pretty good no?" She stated but placed her horn against his.
Dawn Seeker had tears running down his green cheeks, yet a new fire in his eyes had started to awaken. "Wasn't it always you who told me not to give up on life?" He stated since what Finder said felt like she was close to death. "Live for us Finder, please, live for your family, friends, me, and for our foal Flame Ruby." Dawn Seeker picked up Finder onto his back and hurried back inside, where other medics looked after her. 'You're going to pay dearly for this, Red Shadow!' He thought running out with eyes of rage and determination.
Fluttershy was taking care of Finder, but before the battle she had given Rainbow Dash a small piece of her pink mane, as a symbol that she wanted her special somepony to come back to her. 'I hope they'll be ok.' She thought wrapping Finder's wounds.
Outside on the battle field, many ponies were fighting for their lives, but Twilight was pondering her thoughts. 'Should I allow Lykaios to go beast form, but that will cause Applejack and Rarity to suffer, but if I don't allow it, we all might die.' The purple alicorn scratched her head in frustration. "Lykaios, summon that power you wield, I got an idea!" She shouted as Rarity's eyes widen.
"Twilight darling, you can't be serious!" The white unicorn stated, as Applejack agreed.
"Ya'll gotta have parasprites fer brains if ya'll think Lykaios won't kill our siblings!" The orange earth pony shouted back at Twilight.
Lykaios looked around, but soon she bite down hard on her lip with her fang, causing her to shift. "RRAAGHH!" She roared appearing as her other form; a giant black Pegasus with dragon wings and white horns.
Dawn Seeker already took down several mecha out of rage, but was losing strength as the lime green unicorn panted. 'I won't back down!' He thought growling, but his eyes widen seeing Lykaios.
Letting loose a powerful roar, Lykaios blasted off the mecha's armor, but when the Cerberus was hit, it split back into the three fillies. "Ow..." Scootaloo groaned, but felt herself instantly being pulled towards her friends again, in order to reform the Cerberus.
"Rarity, help!" Sweetie belle screamed trying not to be pulled by the force that turned the Cutie Mark Crusaders into a Cerberus.
The white unicorn mare, whose beautiful purple mane flowed freely without effort dashed in, grabbing Sweetie Belle. "With Celestia as my witness, I won't lose my one and only sister again,!" Rarity stated holding her sister tightly with magic.
Apple Bloom was being pulled by Applejack, who skillfully managed to get a rope around the young filly's body. "Hang on Apple Bloom, you ain't turnin' into no Cerberus again!" The orange mare muffled, but was aided by Big Mac, her older brother.
"Ee'yup!" The red stallion stated digging his hooves into the ground.
Lykaios was about to send her spikes in, but the magic that created the Cerberus was too strong as the three fillies were ripped away from their families. Rainbow Dash had joined in to keep Scootaloo from becoming the mecha beast that Red Shadow was so proud of, but the orange pegasus filly was torn away from the cyan pegasus' hooves. "Kick Red Shadow's flank Rainbow Dash!" Scootaloo waved, but had tears in her violet eyes.
"I will kid, I promise you." Rainbow dash stated saluting Scoots.
To keep their families from being dragged in, Apple Bloom had broken the rope smiling a bit. "Sorry Applejack, but I know ya'll save us. I believe in my sis!" The yellow earth pony stated smacking into Scootaloo.
"Rarity, I'm sorry, but I don't want my big sis to become a monster!" Sweetie Belle cried breaking the hold with her magic, before completing the Cerberus, who roared now united.
"SWEETIE BELLE!" Rarity screamed with fresh hot tears falling, but soon rage filled her eyes, as the white unicorn glared at Red Shadow, who was up against Twilight. Instantly the three friends rushed to the princess' side, with a new flame burning in their hearts.
Lykaios tried her best to keep the Cerberus from hurting any pony, but Red Shadow laughed. "Nothing can stop my creations, nothing ahaha!" The black pony smirked, but with one swift blow, her left eye was blinded by Dawn Seeker, who shoved his horn right into her.
"DIE!" He snapped blasting her with powerful magic, yet was thrown back by the blast as he growled. 'That was for Finder...' He smirked but fell to the ground weak and exhausted.
Red Shadow roared, her eye bleeding, yet the blast had turned her back hooves into a bloody mess, she growled and stabbed herself with an injection. "I won't die, I will live to rule this world!" She shouted before a blinding light caused the mare to disappear from sight, but left her so called 'broken' mecha behind.
Twilight stretched out her wings, yet Artic Storm came beside her. "Teacher, I know a way to save the mecha!" She stated but with one swift movement, she placed her horn against her teacher's causing a burst of powerful magic to occur, healing the mecha as pieces of metal fell from them, painlessly.
"You did it Artic!" Twilight stated, but her eyes widen seeing the fluffy icy colored mare panting on the ground, her horn terribly cracked. "Artic Storm!" She stated as the mare smiled a bit.
"Did... Did we save them?" She asked weakly, as Twilight smiled a bit, nodding. "Good, urgh..." Artic storm's horn fell to the ground in pieces, yet it seemed that blast saved the ponies, but cost Artic Storm her magic, since she had been a medium for the magic to not affect the princess' horn.
"Artic..." Applejack took off her hat in respect. "Ya'll did good, thanks to you and Twilight, we've saved many sugercube." She smiled a bit, yet the Cerberus had vanished with Red Shadow, so now both Applejack and Rarity carried heavy hearts, and a vow to save them.
