//------------------------------// // Threat // Story: Rocket To Insanity : Dawn Of A Dying Pegasus // by DontWakeTheNeighbour //------------------------------// ********UNEDITED******** Twilight slowly made her way towards the daylight in the distance as she closely watched her surroundings. Her vision began to get clearer as her mind grew slowly calmer, but Spike was still nowhere to be seen. The purple unicorn continued, knowing. .... No. .... Praying her friends would be waiting for her on the other side. As Twilight began to feel the warmth of the sunlight touching her hoofs, she heard a stone drop behind her. She turned, but nothing was there, just the bitter blackness from where she emerged from just seconds ago. Finally in the beautiful glow of the sun, Twilight sat on the floor, savouring every minute of the warm light as it dried the sweat dropping off her fur. Twilight felt a peace, but the longer she waited the more she started to worry about her friends. She knew they were in there, but where? Her thoughts raced as she tried to calm herself down, knowing the worst thing she could do was panic. But she couldn't help but fear for her friends. She didn't know if Rainbow Dash was in there, or watching her. She didn't know wether it was best to run and get help, but who would she ask? It was no use, she was on her own. Twilight couldn't take it anymore. She got up as fast as she could and galloped as fast as she could into the dark cave. She just couldn't leave her friends behind. Twilight ran through the dark passage looking for a different route from which she took. She soon found a narrow crack in the wall which glowed a heavenly blue. Twilight used her magic to smash open the hollow wall, before making her way in. Twilight was taken back by the beautiful shine of the diomands which shined all around her. She regained her focus before continuing her journy, entering the huge diomand encrusted room. Surrounded by rubies, saphires and emeralds, she found it hard to concentrate on her task. Just then something caught her eye. A drop of blood fell in front of her, when she looked up she found herself staring right into the blood soaked jaws of her insane friend. Paralyzed with fear, Twilight didnt move, she just stayed quiet, hoping Rainbow Dash might not see her as a threat. Rainbow Dash then spoke first. "Helloooooooo!" Not know what to do, Twilight held her breath and responded. "H-h-hi?" "Howww yah doin?!" "Ah. ..... I'm. F-fine?" "GOOD!!" Twilight fell to the ground, suprised by the sudden growl. As she looked up, she could see Rainbow Dash in full view. Her body now dripping with blood, deep wounds all around her body, some even as deep as her bones and organs. Twilight gagged, not beliving what she was seeing. "Awww! ..... WHAT'S THE MATTER?!!" "Rainbow. .... Oh my Cellestia. What happened to you?!" Twilight backed away, but Rainbow Dash ketp herself as close as possible to her purple victim, breathing her air, almost tasting her fear. Twilight was looking around franticaly as the blue pegasus stared at her hungrily, slowly lifting her hoofs. Twilight was just about to scream but as soon as she opened her mouth, her throat was grasped tightly. Twilght choked as she began to flail wildely, desperetly trying to throw the pegasus off her chest. As Twilight began to grow faint she used her magic, grabbing the mare by the tail and throwing her away. Gasping for air Twilight tried to get back onto her hooves but couldn't find her ballance. Twilight was then kicked in the back, sending her flying across the cave. The purple unicorn then landed on the ground with a thud before the pegasus grabbed her mane with her teeth and started pulling hard. Twilight's screams ringed in the ears of the pegasus as Twilight's hair was slowly getting torn off her skull. She couldn't move an inch as her spine and neck was bent to breaking point. Rainbow Dash then bowed her head, ready to pull with all her might. Twilight quickly reacted and used her back legs to buck Rainbow Dash in the chest. Twilight made a break for the exit, moving as fast as her legs could carry her. Just as the daylight glow entred her eyes, she was once again kicked in the opposite direction. Twilight smashed through the thin walls of the cave, landing in a small ditch. Twilight's senses soon restored just as she noticed something warm and sticky under her hooves.
