//------------------------------// // Canterlot Castle 3 // Story: Mega Mare Dash // by Shazam 25 //------------------------------// Rainbow walks through another part of the room before coming to a wall which she wall jump over and drop down to a room fill with Chaos Soldiers, which Rainbow take out easily. She walks on and reaches a room that was empty. Rainbow look around and felt her mind warn her again. Then felt the room shake before noticing Armor Armadillo coming into the room. "Well, well, I see the leader brought back the rat," Rainbow said smiling. She never gets tired of calling him that. Of course, the rebuild said nothing and went to attack her. Rainbow dodges the rolling shield attack and switch to Electric Spark. Rainbow shot her attack after Armor Armadillo stops his attack. Like before Armor Armadillo lost his armor and Rainbow laugh. She never forgets what he looks like with his armor. Armor Armadillo shot his attack which Rainbow jump over and charge her attack. After Armor Armadillo stops attacking, Rainbow release her charge shot of Electric Spark, making four Sparks appear two in front of her and two behind her. Each with an electric field in between them. Armor Armadillo took double damage from the charge attack. The fight went the same as before even after Armor Armadillo started using his rolling shield more than the last fight. Rainbow walks through a broken wall and come to a letter that lay on the ground. "Is that one of Twilight's friendship reports?" She asks before picking it up. "Dear love one, I'm sorry we can't spend more time together. Work as it limits on me, I hope to see you again, but I'll tell you something I'm working on so you can understand better. A strange comet has falling from the sky and Luna had no control of it. I had taken it to my lab and started working on a new project. It a new type of armor that I come to call the Mega Armor." Rainbow stop there, the letter was about her armor, but who send it? She had to guess it was Rainbow Chaser. She kept reading. "I really hope the princesses will like this type of armor, sadly it the only one I can make unless more of the strange comet comes again. Don't worry I won't work on this project too much, I'll return to you tonight. Love Rainbow Chaser." It was Rainbow Chaser! Look like he told somepony else about her armor and was planning to tell both Princesses about it. Rainbow decides to keep the letter because she rarely knew Rainbow Chaser other then he builds her armor and had a special pony. She walks through more of the castle taking down more Chaos Soldiers before entering another room that had a forest-like feeling to it. Soon Sting Chameleon appears and drops down and looks at Rainbow Dash. "Just I'm right about one thing, your leader brings you all back, but why? I know all your weakness." Rainbow said and switch to Boomerang Cutter and waited for Sting Chameleon to jump, which he did and started to shake the ceiling, causing spikes to drop. Rainbow fire her Boomerang Cutter that did the same as last time. Made Sting Chameleon fall to the ground and jump back on the wall and shot his Chameleon Sting. The fight went on pretty quickly. After leaving that room she found another letter. "Dear Love one, Great news! I finally finish the Mega Armor! I will show it to the Princesses tomorrow. I really tried after all the building I did. However we are very lucky, I finish the armor on the same day our son is born. Rainbow Cloud is a great name for our son. Maybe one day he will wear this armor and serve alongside the Princesses. I will return home soon to see our son. Love Rainbow Chaser." Rainbow Dash smile her family was well known for the name Rainbow because they are almost always born with Rainbow Manes and Tails. She put that letter with the first she found and move on. She decides to try her charging weapons, she was really surprised at the charge shot of Chameleon Sting. She found the charge shot Chameleon Sting had made her turn into a rainbow that made all attacks pass through her and even was able to walk over spikes. Once it started to slow down, Rainbow knew that it was on a time limit. Once Rainbow enters another room it darkens. Rainbow look up to see balls of light growl and knew who it was. The lights turn back on and Spark Mandrill dropdown. "You know, you are a pushover with Shotgun Ice," Rainbow said and switch to it. The fight was quick like before. Shoot, freeze, wait, break out, and repeat. Once she steps out of the room she found another note. "Dear love one I show both Princesses the Mega armor, the love it. I told them that it the only one I can make because of the comet that fell. While they both understand that I can't make more, they steam disappointed. However, they ask me to keep the Armor until it is needed. Which I agree with. I'll keep an eye out for more of the comet, but will do my best for my family. I'll return to see my son once more. Love Rainbow Chaser." Rainbow smile. The princesses knew about the Armor all right, it might been a long time since they saw it and might forgot all about it. As Rainbow walk on she fell into some water. She knew which Chaos Soldier she was going to fight this time. She took down some Chaos Soldiers fish and enter a room where Launch Octopus floated down. "Man I know you guys a trying to stop me but what the point? I can easily beat you." Rainbow said and switch to Rolling Shield. Like the first fight, Rainbow fire a Rolling Shield whenever she had the chance and jump over his Torpedo's and dash away from his vortex. Rainbow really had no problem against the rebuild Chaos Soldier leaders. Once she was out of the water she found another note from Rainbow Chaser. "Dear love one, I had decided to lock the Mega Armor away. Last night somepony tries to steal it. I knew in the wrong hoofs it can be dangerous. However, I do believe in the future some pony will find it and use it for the good of Equestria. I do know what will become of it. I had a strange dream that a Pegasus appears, she was cyan with a Rainbow mane and tail. Her cutie mark was a cloud with a rainbow thunderbolt shape. She seems reckless but I knew I can trust her to the armor. Sadly, I do not think I'll live long enough to see it happen. It also strange, it was only a dream but it looks like a place I never have seen before was being attacked and this Pegasus that appear, it felt like I knew her. Is she part of our family? If she is I hope she can save her home. Love Rainbow Chaser." Rainbow looked at the letter in surprise. So Rainbow Chaser told his lover about the dream as well. She was glad to find it. But why didn't she find it the first time she moves into her house at Ponyville? She did thought it might not be the right time when she moves in. Rainbow put it with the others. This she was going to keep until she tells her friends who she really is. She thought back a bit and remember that she fought eight Chaos Soldiers before coming here, so she had to fight one more, Flame Mammoth. Rainbow walks on and saw a way that didn't change too much. It was the way to the throne room. Rainbow decides not to wait and run right to it. As soon as she reaches the doors she stops as Flame Mammoth dropdown. "You are in my way Flame Mammoth, I got to see if the Princesses are OK," Rainbow said and switch to Storm Tornado. Flame Mammoth jump in the air and Rainbow dash, then jump out of his way. After they both land, Rainbow shot a Storm Tornado at him. Rainbow took a bit longer than normal with this one. He kept jumping over and over again. After Rainbow took care of him, she walks to the doors to the throne room and enters it. Rainbow looked around the room and saw no pony. No guards, no Princesses ether. She took a step forward and her mind shouted, 'WARING! WARING!'. Rainbow ready her buster and look for the boss of the room. Then Rainbow jumps back as two giant robot-like horses bust out of the wall. Rainbow notice that both had wings and horns and one was white and the other was dark blue. She didn't know why, but she felt as she knew them from somewhere. Rainbow jump back as a white horn stabs the ground right where she was at. Then she dashes away as a dark blue hoof stomp the ground next. Rainbow then watch as the two horns cast a giant magic energy ball together. Rainbow quickly dash to the nearest wall and wall jump up, as the attack was fired. Rainbow dash jump over the attack and fire a third level charge shot that hit the white robot Alicorn causing the head to explode. As Rainbow drop down she saw what was inside. There was Princess Celestia cover in wires. She didn't seem to be awake during the battle. Then the headcover the Princess back up as Rainbow land on the ground. She turns to the dark blue Alicorn and knew inside it was Princess Luna. Rainbow was really angry. "HOW DARE DOES THE CHAOS LEADER DO THIS TO THE PRINCESSES!" Rainbow shouted. She charges her buster once more and dodge the dark blue horn and fire a second level charge shot at the head. Rainbow then dash away from a white hoof that stomps the ground where she was at. Rainbow charge another shot and watch as both giant Alicorns made another magic energy ball. Rainbow wall jumps up to the attack and releases a third level shot at the attack, which blew on both giant Alicorns badly damaging them. I got remember that next time. Rainbow thought as she calms down. She dashes away from the white horn and the dark blue hoof. She fires at the white Alicorn while its head was still down. Rainbow wall jumps up next to the dark Alicorn and fires a second level at it. Then drop back down the wall jump and charge her shot again because the two giant Alicorns were once again making a magic energy ball. She fires her third level charge shot which once again blew the attack on both of the robot Alicorns. Rainbow fell to the ground and ready her buster. She stops as she watches as both Alicorns started to explode. Rainbow ran behind a broken pillar as a shock wave pass over her. Rainbow jump over the falling pillar with her buster out. She lowers it when she saw both Princesses laying on the ground. "Princess Celestia, Princess Luna!" Rainbow shouted as she ran up to them. Luna opens her eyes and looks around. "What...what happen?" She asks. Then she turns to Celestia who was just getting up. "Can't remember after we talk to the Chaos Soldier leader," Celestia said and started to fall over. Rainbow was by her side and caught her. "Mega Mare Dash?" Luna asks still a little daze. "Yeah, it's me," Rainbow said masking her voice. Celestia stood up and bow to Rainbow. "Thank you Mega Mare Dash," she said. "You have heard that the leader is in Canterlot, and I never thought she will turn you two into weapons for me to fight," Rainbow said. Both Princesses look at Rainbow on surprise. "You attack both Princesses!" A voice spoke out. All three turn and saw Rainbow friends standing at the doors with their ears flat and wide eyes. "Fear not my little ponies, Mega Mare Dash only attacked us to free us from the Chaos Soldier control," Celestia said. Rainbow told then the whole story on what happens and the rest nods in understanding, relaxing at the same time too. Then Rainbow pull out three of the four letters and hand them to Celestia keeping the one about Chaser's dream because she didn't want anypony to know. After all, she was told not to tell anypony about her armor. "What are these?" She asks. "Letters from Rainbow Chaser to his love one, telling her all about my armor," Rainbow explains. Celestia read all three notes when Rainbow spoke again, "One of them said that the Princesses was told about my armor as well." "Yes we hear about it, but we never knew it was hidden away," Luna said. Twilight took the notes and read about Rainbow Cloud. "Rainbow Cloud, isn't that the first Pegasus with a Rainbow mane and tail to serve under you?" Twilight asks Celestia. "Yes, it was then where he met his wife and gave birth to their son." Celestia answer. "And their son went around Equestria until he met his wife and gave birth to his daughter, which was..." Luna added before trailing off. "Rainbow Dash's mother." Twilight finish for her. "We can worry about this later if you don't mind." Applejack said. "No, something tells me that the Leader knows who Rainbow Dash is and might be after her the most," Rainbow said knowing she was the real target. "Very well, you must stop their leader as soon as you can," Celestia said and made a door appear. "Go up these stairs and you will reach the leader of the Chaos Soldiers." She said. Rainbow nods and started to walk to the door. "Um...Mega Mare Dash?" Fluttershy said meekly. Rainbow turns back around and looks at her friends. "We got Zerofire to safely and try to get her a doctor but she was gone when we got back, all that was left was a note saying "Thank You", I mean if that alright with you," Fluttershy said again. "Thanks, Fluttershy. I sure Zerofire was happy for your help." Rainbow said and turn back to the door. This was it. The final battle. Rainbow was ready, she fought eight Chaos Soldiers twice and destroy three weapons that were sent at her. Now all was left was Night Star, the leader of the Chaos Soldiers. The only thing that stands in her way was Mega Mare Dash.
