Twilight quickly ran with White and Sweetie Belle as the flames that scared the creature away didn't have a long affect. The creature returned from above landing hard on the ground with a loud hiss once again.The two ponies who had scared the creature away quickly turned around, one of them used his magic to take out a shotgun from his back holster. The other stallion starts to quickly unload the flamethrower. Pulling the trigger of the shotgun with fear in his eyes and heart the stallion misses the creature. Lunging at the gunner and getting him on his hind hooves, grabbing one of his front hooves with its large hand it pulls him forward. Looking up at the creature as his shotgun fell to the floor the stallion screams as the tail of the animal flops up into the air before wiping forward and puncturing into the ponies gut. Blood drips from his lips as his arm was yanked on pulling him forward on the tail, the tail pushing deeper into the body and he screams as the slightly bumpy surface rips through his body. The creature then quickly let go of the stallion letting him fall to the ground as its tail rips out of the body. The blood pools as he lay next to his gun. At that moment the other stallion had just loaded the flamethrower, the creature was faster however and was now face to face with the flame wielding pony. He yells as the mouth of the creature opens and he is picked up by the head, the hands of the beast grabbing on both sides of his face. Now just above the ground the dagger like tongue flies into the skull splattering the brains and blood of the pony onto the wall. Dropping him immediately afterwards the creature hisses and turns to where Twilight, Sweetie, and White ran too.
Twilight used her magic to quickly levitate Sweetie Belle up onto her back so she could pick up speed and keep running. White had the thought of the empty flamethrower he had on his back, those two stallions had a flamethrower and it appeared to be well loaded up. As they ran taking a sharp turn they hear the loud foot stomps of the creature moving down the hall behind them. It screamed moving quickly. As Twilight was moving she noticed something down the hall. It was two ponies, two ponies and.....and..."Sunset!!!" Twilights ears quickly perked up as she saw her friend. She was with another mare and a monitor. Sunsets ears perked up as well as she heard her friends voice, she and Fractured look over to where it came from and Sunsets happiness died when she saw the creature rush taking the corner almost hitting the wall as it took the turn. She and Fracture had just gotten done with feeling better from the android attack.
"The creature!! It's here MOVE!!" Iron Will shouted as he ran down the hall a ways opening a door before rushing inside. Sunset stood there as Fractured tugged on her. The captain poked his head around the corner of the door and held his hand out waiting. "Lets move!! Forget them! MOVE!!" Sunset lowers her head as Twilight and White try and pick up speed as the creature was about to gain on them moving faster than them with ease. Sunset rushes up and places her hooves on a wheeled table and pushes it.
"Look out!! Move" Sunset falls over from her hard push, Twilight barely dashes out of the way as. The creatures speed was enough to gain but it had no time to dodge the table. The table smashed into its waist sending it face first to the floor. Its Dome head smacks the floor and it rolls head to tail in a ball before coming to a stop on its belly. This gave Twilight room to join the Captain, Sunset, and Fractured at the entrance to the door. Iron Will yelled and wasted no time as he locked the door down. White by instinct now looks up and around for vent exits. When he finds none he falls to the ground and begins to kiss it. The creature rushes by the window and roars as it walks around the area outside the door. Twilight lunges to the chest of Sunset Shimmer and tears fill both of their eyes as they latch against each other in a big hug.
"Sunset, I am so sorry I walked off. That was the biggest hypocritical thing i could have ever done. I am so sorry!" She said as the tears continued to flow.
"Its alright..Its okay, Its not all your fault. I understand why you left" She smiled holding her friend close, Iron Will looks over and rolls his eyes, the captain got up and began to look around to see if there was anypony else here. He figured it would be best, better than listening to the two mares snuggle and make up.
.......................................................................................................................................................................................
"SILVER!! I HATE YOU!!" White got up and tackled her to the ground and kissed her over and over again. Twilight and the others opened there eyes to the sound of White screaming this "Why are you out here, thats so stupid Silver. Thats so stupid" he kissed her more as he spoke. The mare was surprised and Iron Will had his large maintenance jack back and ready to swing after the stallion randomly yelled. Looking around at the larger group Silverstar frowned and looked to White. Scootaloo who was with the gray mare gasped and began to tear when she saw Sweetie Belle and Twilight. Running over and hugging her filly friend tightly as she began to cry lightly.
"Who are these Ponies, I thought you were just going out to teach her" she quickly points a hoof at the alicorn Twilight Sparkle. White stopped kissing his marefriend and Iron Will angrily grumbled lowering his weapon. Twilight was still close to Sunset but was calmer and not as teary as she stared at Silverstar. Sunset looked at White and Silver with a raised brow, she had never seen them before.
"Maybe we should talk about this later" White was about to finish speaking with an 'I love you' when the front window smashed to peaces as the creature rushed into it. Clenching its hands and roaring at the ponies it backed away hissing. Iron Will ran away to the emergency door and opened it leaving. Before he was gone he slammed the jack into the control panel and caused the door to shut down so it could not be opened. Twilight was on her hooves and reached out with her hoof.
"No!!! Stop!" She yelled as everypony got up and rushed to the door. Silverstar was shaking next to her boyfriend, fractured quickly began to beat on the door and was screaming hoping to Celestia the captain could hear her curse.
"Captain!! You coward piece of shit!! YOU ASSHOLE! Get back here you dick~!" she continued to pound as little Sweetie Belle and now Scootaloo coward in the corner. White moved away from the door and looked around, now hoping he was wrong and there was another way out, like a vent. "I'm going to kill you, you coward!" Fractured backed away from the door and growled at it, the creature rushed away from the broken window and smoke began to drift from the glass as it melted. The glass had hurt the creature after it mashed in the window. Twilight slowly moved over to the window and picked up the empty flamethrower, she felt safer with it and they would need it if they came across fuel.
"Why would he do this, isn't he supposed to be the one to help us?" Twilight asked the fear of knowing they did not have long staying in this room before the creature returned. "He is the captain, aren't there rules he is suppose to go by or something!?" White looks around and cautiously answers Twilight.
"From the looks of it he wouldn't even go down with his ship, if it were to go down" Sunset glares at White still having respect for the captain. Even if he just left them all to die here. She let it go for now and looked to the front exit.
"How about we get out of here before that thing returns, from what it seems...it will be back very soon. Lets not die because of a group members mistake" Sunset says bluntly and looks to Fractured with a smile knowing she would agree. White looks to Sunset and growls lightly and backs up. Scootaloo looks to the window and whimpers before going over to Twilights leg and hugging it for comfort, Scootaloo was missing he alicorn sense she left with White to go concur her fear.
"Twilight, please don't let Gash get me...." Scootaloo said as she nuzzled into the leg fur of the mare. The adult group all raised their brows as Twilight looked down and questioned the filly.
"Who is Gash?" the alicorn smiled kneeling down as she placed a hoof on Scootaloo's shoulder. Scootaloo looked to where the creature had broken in through the window.
"The monster, I named it..." the filly looked up to Twilight and frowned, "Gash has a cut on its head from breaking in trying to get me" she says as she points to the green blood that was melting away at the glass. "Please don't let Gash get me, Twilight. Same for Sweetie Belle..." Twilight and the others nod and give a slight smile. Sunset rolls her eyes and steps forward looking at Sweetie and Scoots.
"Where is Applebloom? I have never seen you three on board separated so where is...." the unicorn stops as she realizes she answered her own question. Looking over at them again she shakes her head and frowns. "I'm sorry" Sweetie Belle covers her eyes and both fillies are then levitated onto Twilights back so they did not have to run if it came to that. The group of ponies left the room through the front door. Fractured had a very angry look on her face and that anger was for the captain. The large mare huffed and moved ahead of them all to lead the way, she knew the best rout to the control room, thats where she believed the captain ran too. As they moved on their way to the captain they ran into many ponies that were trying to survive, at least they knew the place wasn't completely lost. They were not alone here and the ponies they ran into were the best examples, most of them wanted to join them but either were denied by Fractured or decided they would be better off on their own. Sunset seemed to never leave Twilights side as they walked the halls of Voluntas Station, White was the same way with Silverstar. Keeping close to his marefriend.
"Here we are, the control room doors...however the doors are locked down again, I was a fool and left the cutter on the other side" Fractured turns to the group and frowns. "There is no way we are getting in there" after she spoke a speaker above the door turned on and Iron Wills voice rang out of it. Fractured uncovered her ears and looked up listening, so did the rest of the group.
"You want in I get it. I am sorry I left you all there alone but I had no choice. I am not dieing for you, I am not dieing for anypony" The minotaur yelled from the speaker. Sunset growled and walked up to the door and spoke back.
"Your the captain, your supposed to be the one who takes these things better!! You left me to die back there!" she spoke for herself because her trust for him was depleting. The captain quickly responded with a surprisingly calm tone.
"I am working on that, I am going to help and save my station. However I am going to have you do the work for me. I am not being out there with that thing, if you want in here there are some things I need you to fix. I left a box of things you will need outside this door, its either you help me save my station or we die here. You dieing doesn't hinder me, I can find others to do this job" Twilight looks to the box and walks over to it taking out a headset and placing it on her head, the microphone turns on and she lets out a long sigh before going to the control room door and moving Sunset out of the way.
"What do you need us too do?"
