//------------------------------// // Phase 5 // Story: Kill Your Heroes // by pokefreak13 //------------------------------// I quietly got out of bed and tiptoed downstairs. I was about to opened the door when I saw Neon looking at me with his small hoof in his mouth. "Shhh." I whispered. Neon smiled like an idiot. I sighed, crept outside, and headed to the base. I entered the base and Killer was waiting for me. His eyes dark with anger. "What's wrong?" I asked. Killer pointed to a tied up Sulfur. "He was a spy sent by Sombra!" the black colt shouted angrily. I looked at Sulfur and gritted my teeth. Then I walked up to him and punched him hard in the chest. "I'll deal with you later." I hissed. Then I turned to Killer. "Where's Chief Furry? I want to do phase five as quickly as possible." I said. Suddenly, Furry came out of the other room with a long sword in his saddle bag. "Ready?" he asked. I nodded and followed Furry outside. We crept silently into the castle. "Now Fire Cracker, I need you as a look out while Killer and I hack into the security system." Furry said. I nodded my head and covered them as the two colts started to hack into the security cameras and alarms. "Okay." Killer whispered. Then I followed them to a huge silver door. "What the?" I questioned. "This is were King Sombra stores all of the dough." Killer explained. I raised an eyebrow. "Why would he put dough in a store room?" I asked. Killer hoof palmed. "He means money." Chief Furry replied. I bit my lip and blushed. We entered the store room and I gasped in delight. The room was a plain white room. However it was filled with shiny bits, gems, and really shiny dragon eggs. "Okay, put the eggs in the bag. Then Fire Cracker, I need you to shoot fire balls in this room." Furry explained. Once Killer and Furry got all the eggs packed up, I shot ten fire balls and then we galloped out of the burning room. We were almost to the exit, however, ten soldiers blocked our path. Weapons ready. "Nice job." We turned around and saw King Sombra smiling devilishly. "We aren't scared of you." Killer shouted. Sombra rolled his eyes. Then he motioned his brainwashed soldiers to attack. I shot fire balls at them while Killer and Chief Furry slashed at them with swords. At first it looked like we were winning. However, more soldiers started to file in. So whenever we killed one, another soldier would take it's place. This plan wasn't working. If we kept attacking, soon all of us will die. "You two go! I'll hold them off!" I commanded. Killer looked at me dumbfounded. "No!" Flurry stated. I looked at the chief with so much determination, he reluctantly agreed. So I bit my lip and concentrated for a long time. Then I felt myself beginning to be consumed in flames. I opened my eyes and stared at the scared soldiers. "Dame." I heard Killer say. I turned around and looked at them. "Go!" I shouted. The two colts nodded and started to run to the exit while I defeated the soldiers. Once by one. Soon, King Sombra was tired of all his soldiers falling by my hooves. "Enough!" he yelled. Then Sombra charged at me. I tried to dodge, however he was fast. When I tried to move out of the way, Sombra used his dark magic to smother my flames. I landed on the marble floor and Sombra stood over me. "That was fun." he purred. Then he had two of his soldiers drag me to the dungeon.
