Midnight. A time when in most places, not much is happening. This city was an exception. Fires lit the night sky as a mare ran through the empty streets. Wind blew her cloak and mane in different directions as pegasi battled above. One side of the battle wore the blue steel of the royal army, the other the brown leather of one of the rebel armys. On the side of the royal army was a pegasus with bright red fur and a pitch black mane. His armor was also different from that of the royal army, it bore the symbol of the royal family, marking him as a high ranking officer. That or the fact the he was screaming
"COME AT ME REBELS! I AM GENERAL FLARE BLITZ OF THE SELENE KNIGHT! I WILL SLAY ALL THOSE WHO BETRAY THE THRONE! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" Many ponys who see this for the first time mostly think "Oh he must be the odd one out of the Knights! they would never be so undignified!" The truth was that they were all like that. When new recruits to the royal army meet them, ever single one asks they're instructor; "Are they insane or are they all just sociopaths?" The answer is always yes. It was obvious which side was going to be victorious, even though the screaming general did not seem like much, he was a seasoned warrior. And after his rant ended (that took awhile) he preceded to buck lighting at the bulk of the enemy army. As his lighting caused the enemy to scatter and panic he and his men stormed into their lines, Flare Blitz laughing like a manic. Whacking and Stabbing with his sword, Flare Blitz began to cause chaos within enemy lines.
The mare laughed as she ran her destination now in sight, a train station. Just as she was about to run into the station, three pegasi landed in a triangle around her. The mare quickly looked at all of them and saw that they wore the leather of the main rebel army. As she wondered what steps to take to get out of the mess she was in, one of the pegasi stepped forward and spoke,
"Excuse me Miss, but it seems a little late for a mare like you to be running around, especially with this battle going on over head. I recommended that you leave tomorrow morning after we get rid of the royal army air force." He looked like he expected the mare to agree with him and run along home. One thing for sure he certainly wasn't expecting her to laugh manically, it showed on his face.
One of the other pegasi looked confused, "Miss are you alrig-" He was then stopped by a blow to his windpipe, that can stop conversation quite quickly. The first pegasi that spoke began to shout,
"Miss! what are you doing!?" The mare again began to laugh, not as manically this time though and spoke,
"You little boys think you can beat Blitz?! He may be a moron, but he's not going to lose to you!" She began to laugh again and stepped back "Come at me! I'll let you go first!" The third pegasi that hadn't spoken yet gulped,
"Uh, Miss? You hit our friend in the windpipe. You already went firs-" He was stoped by another blow to the windpipe.
"NO TALK BACKS GONNA HAPPEN HERE!" The first pegasi spoke again,
"Miss the wasn't really talkin-" He got tackled. The mare shouted,
"So! Which rebel army are you from!" the stallion gulped
"Uh I can't tell you that." She looked at him with a, 'Are you serious?' face.
"Alright then, lets make a deal." Her smile unnerved him, "I'll let you and your friends live! If you tell me which army you're from!" She was still smiling when her telekinesis grabbed a sword from under her cloak and put it to one of the other pegasi's throats. The first pegasi who had been hit looked at his comrades, and saw the sword. He began to freak out.
"We're the army from Genaisa! Please I don't know much! Please just don't kill us!" he then started to cry. the mare quickly got up grabbed all three pegasi (One still crying) and some rope from her bag and tied them on to a lamppost. She then grabbed a piece of paper and a pen form her bag and began to write
They're from Genaisa, don't kill any officers. QUESTION THEM (I'm looking at you Thunder! Yes, there is a difference between torture and questioning.) Hopefully be back in a year or so. Don't die. -Nighting Gale
P.S. Oh yeah might wanna tell my brother I'm leaving. I recomend Shield, everyone else sucks at shield spells.
P.P.S Have Fun!
P.P.P.S I swear if I come back and some of my stuff is missing I'm gonna beat the crap out of Knives.
She then pined the note to the rebels and walked into the train station. As she looked at the places available for her train ride she began to think out loud,
"Hmmm, where does that unicorn live again? Equestria? Oh that's it! Well Twilight Sparkle here I come!" She then looked to the frightened ticket seller, who when he saw her looking at him began to shake.
"H-hello Miss what can I do for you?" He ask as she looked back at her options.
"Hmm which port town can I get to in one ride from here?"
"Umm the only port town you can get to in one train ride from here is Lynlis and that is under rebel control." He gulped which caused Nighting Gale to flip out.
"You gulped! What is it with people and gulping when they're scared?! It makes no sense!" She sighed "Whatever just get me a ticket to Lynlis." The stallion nodded nervelessly and handed her a ticket. She looked at it and said "How much does this cost?" The stallion began to shake his head.
"Nothing for you Miss please just take the ticket and go." She shrugged and took the ticket
"Whatever!" she said as she board the train.
