We waited anxiously outside a dark, abandoned building. The building was surrounded by the thick rain forest and desperately needed some tender, loving care. Nightfall had settled; giving the jungle an eerie appearance. I heard animals scurrying through bushes and leaves. I smelled the light dewiness in the air. So many sounds and strange smells surrounded me, but I was focused on saving the mare I loved.
We finally found Pinkie after three weeks of searching for her. We were in the depths of the Everfree Forest; the mysterious woods of Ponyville. The game Akuma was playing with us was sort of like a cat and mouse game. We would get close to her, and then she would be moving. It would frustrate me when she was just out of our reach. But now, he is keeping her in that building. As I stared at it, the task seemed too easy.
"Are you sure she is here?" I asked; my stomach tightened in uneasiness.
I glanced at Henko and he was staring at the little balloon on his phone.
He nodded his head, "Yup she's here." He slipped his phone in his back pocket. Silence stretched between us as we stared at the building. I started to get impatient because I wanted Pinkie out of King Sombra's hooves. "Do you have a plan?" I asked impatiently. Hay Stacks's golden gaze settled on me and his face hardened. "Do you?" he snapped. I clinched my jaw and breathed out a heavy sigh. My muscles started quivering; my dragon inside me ready to take action. "Well, he has to sleep sometime doesn't he?" I suggested. Hay Stacks's lip tightened in a hard line in deep thought. "I guess. But first we have to take those guards out by the door," he implied.
I glanced at the guards, and I heard my chest rumble as I growled. The guards looked kind of scrawny in my point of view. The quivering in my muscles increased as the thought of saving Pinkie entered my mind. "Well, what are we waiting for? Let's get them," I said fiercely. I sprang up, but Hay Stack held me down.
"We have to come up with a plan first," he growled through his clenched teeth. I glared at him as I shook his taunt hand off my shoulder. I heard him give a low, warning growl, but I ignored it. "There's only two," I observed. "So you take one, and I take one. Unless, you want me to do all the dirty work," I said dryly.
Hay Stack snorted. "I know that, and I won't let you have all the fun," he paused, "but doesn't seem too easy to you?" My lips tightened into a hard line. Would King Sombra be expecting us? He doesn't know where we are, does he? I just wanted Pinkie Pie safe in my arms. "I don't know," I whispered. "But we better get going or we might lose her again," I muttered. Hay Stack glanced at me. "You're really impatient aren't you?" he asked freely.
I had the urge to growl at him, but I stopped myself because I knew he was right. I was always a patient man, but now, I just wanted Pinkie out of harm's way. And in my view, the faster the better. "I just want to get her out of there," I whispered harshly.
"You don't think I do, too?" Hay Stack asked in disbelief. "Then, what are we waiting for?" I asked while glancing at him. His face hardened again, and he gave a heavy sigh. "Once we take down those guards, we won't have much time to get Pinkie out of there," he whispered. A pained expression crossed his face, but it was wiped away in a blink of an eye. He glared at the guards. "Okay, let's go."
We both charged at the guards. I was in the middle of beating the guards head in when Hay Stack stopped me. "What do you want!" I growled. "I think we should ask them stuff first... they might know where Pinkie is." he explained. I thought hard on what he was implying. In a low whisper i said, looking at the guard,"Do you know where Pinkie is?" his blank expression told me that he didn't know.
"I know the one you speak of." the second guard said very quietly. I noticed that he had a strong accent. "Tell me then!" i said after a long pause.
