~~On the Day of the Prosecution~~
"You should not have done that! That was a fool's decision! Repent your crimes and tell us where they have went! You will then be spared!"
Fluttershy was the first to speak."Never! I may be afraid of everything. I may be a coward in your eyes but I DO NOT betray my friends!"
"You are the fool here, Ace!" Pinkie scowled.
"And besides, we do not even know so you can just kill us. We will have no regrets following the ,ahem, 'corrupt one'" Rarity smirked.
The others nodded.
Ace shrugged."Suit yourselves."
The sun had finally risen and they were dragged to the torture room. As thy lay their heads there, the took one finally look of the sun. To the others, it was a new day. To them, it was the last sunrise they will ever see alive. They heard the sound of falling metal. Finally, the metal saw landed on their necks and blood was splattered. It was the end of three heroes' lives. The victory of a villain and the heartache and torture of four innocent ponies.
~~In a jungle outside of Equestria~~
Twilight woke up, expecting to be on the comfort of her bed. Instead, she was greeted by greenery.
"Ah!"Twilight shouted.
"Shhh. Don't you remember yesterday? We can not get caught!"Spike hissed.
"Sorry."Twilight replied. She then sighed sadly. Spike's face softened and told her that as long as nopony saw them, they would be safe.
"But they will never know the truth!"Twilight said in the loudest quiet.
"One day, they will but not now! Come on, let us wake the rest up."
Twilight nudged Rainbow and Applejack. They yawned. Their eyes widened for a while but soon realised what happened.
"Anyway, anyone hungry?" Twilight asked. Their attentions turned to a bull that was near them.
Twilight tried to electrocute it but failed. Applejack tried fighting it but instead, ended up with a black eye rather than a victory. Rainbow Dash tried circling it but got dizzy. Spike fought it too and failed. They were desperate. They do not know how to kill animals and the only pony that could gain its trust was dead.
"Argh! We will starve to death!"Rainbow Dash complained.
"Complainin' ain't gonna help Rainbow,"Applejack groaned.
Twilight's attention was brought to a long stick and a sharp of stone. She picked it up with magic and connected it with a vine that was not too far away. She lifted it up and killed the bull. The others were excited but Twilight shook her head.
We will get food poisoning so we might as well just run into Equestria shouting in front of Princess Luna's castle,'We are the corrupt ones! Arrest us! We will not escape!'"
Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Spike groaned, knowing that she was right.
"But we can not just light a fire, too!"Rainbow Dash pointed out.
They decided to look for some kind of shelter, artificial or natural. As long as it was safe. Also, there were dark clouds in the sky, signalling that it was going to rain. They looked around and saw a cave. They got some firewood and Spike lighted it up. As they ate their breakfast, which was also going to be their lunch and dinner, the saw the silhouette of some ponies. They hid in some covered areas of the cave. Ace and the me entered and luckily, did not spot them. Ace swore and Twilight smirked. They had won for the day. When they were gone. She sighed.
"This will be tough but I bet I will get used to it,"Twilight said. They decided that they will do their best, not just for themselves, but for the sacrifice of their friends to not be in vain.
