belongs to the beasts

fear of a rainbow

Rainbow dash thought this would be a quick task, push some clouds, squeeze them, make some rain and extinguish the fire

Instead she’s been fighting this fire for almost a two days at this point, every time she extinguished a fire another twice it’s size took its place

They even asked some unicorns to check if the fire was magic or something but this is just a normal fire! They even asked some unicorns to check the area if some dragon was causing the fire but according to them there was nothing alive down there, only fire

They sent some earth pony’s and unicorns to check if the ground or something caused it like some kind of underground volcano or something like that, but the ground was normal, even more normal than Ponyville soil

And that was rainbow dash’s limit, she flied downwards with a clouds in her hoofs and started fighting it with all might, she alone already seemed to have extinguished half of the fire in minutes

But then she saw something, a small purple light that was followed by a new fire and a Timberwolf covered in fire running towards her before it collapsed, consumed by the fire

“No magic my butt” said rainbow dash to herself, she flies towards the purple light and sees something weird, it looks like a baby dragon without Arms, it seems made out of dark grey and black metal and is also the size of a pony, it’s eyes are round, purple and empty

The metal monster roared and shoot a purple blast that started another fire before making a weird sound that resembled the sound of those arcade machines in Ponyville

Rainbow dash didn’t think twice and dashed towards the monster has it started another fire, she kicked the thing and the face and sent it flying towards a tree

The thing crawled back has it made a high-pitched sound before running away

Rainbow dash gave chase, the Thing stumbled looking around before it started… running backwards to shoot another purple blast at rainbow dash which barrel rolled out of the way of the attack

The beast made that high pitched sound again and then… it stopped running, however rainbow dash took a second to see it and she accidentally passed it by accident and she looked back she saw the monster running between the trees

She followed once again but this time the thing started several fires, but that didn’t stop her, she dodged the blazes and falling trees and kicked the monster once again, making it fell to the ground

Before it could stand up, rainbow dash jumped in top of it and prepared and the metal monster started shaking and making weird sounds that resembles words

“WAI- I- PLE- NO- HELP- AAAA-“ over and over

And the sound attracted another Pegasus “what is going on in there?” Asked the Pegasus

The metal thing took the chance and shoot at the incoming Pegasus, rainbow dash noticed this and took flight, pushed the Pegasus out of the way of the attack and before she could notice, the thing was gone

She flies through the forest but she couldn’t find the monster

She then got a idea and went back to extinguishing the fire, but this time the monster didn’t reappear to make more

“Welp, that was easy” said Rainbow dash taking the monster for gone, now with the fire extinguished went back to Ponyville

It took Alex a minute to calm down and come out of their hiding spot, they jumped into a mud puddle and stood there completely unmoving for five minutes

Once Alex finally realized the violent Pegasus was gone, they decided to roam the forest once again

“Why did they attack me?” Asked Alex to himself

“I wasn’t hurting anybody but those wolfs, and they deserved it!” Said Alex to themselves once again

Alex then saw their reflection in one of the many puddles caused by the rain that extinguished the fire of their fight

Alex noticed that Pegasus hit them hard, or at least hard enough to slightly dent their body

And that scarred Alex, are they too weak, are they going to be hunted down by this things, they are going to rip them apart and recycle their pieces!

“No” said Alex

Alex checked their archives and saw several instructions, several blueprints for mining machines, laser cannons, and other equipment, but most importantly a new body

Alex first modified itself to have a Ore detector and with it Alex found a cave, they modified their mouth and turned its cables into small tentacles to extract all the resources needed

Alex finally finished their first project, a drill that constantly extracted all resources needed

But then Alex knew they couldn’t stay on a cave so they wandered searching for a better place to stay in and install the drill

Alex wandered and wandered till the sky started getting red, then they found a kind of mansion, the woods was old, the ambience was humid, and it looked abandoned which was perfect for Alex, no one would suspect they would hide in a a house in the middle of nowhere

Has Alex walked in they found some bones in the ground, they wondered what those bones belonged to

then their attention was taken by another of those wood wolfs blocking the entrance, Alex dodged the attack of the monster and ran away deeper into the mansion, Alex was then cornered but found a door to a possible basement, the door was surprisingly large and the perfect size to throw the wolf

Alex opened the door and the wolf jumped towards them but with a small kick to the face the wood monster fell to the basement, Alex quickly closed it trapping the thing

Alex did something that mimicked a sigh of relief and set up the drill outside of the mansion, quickly got several materials including a solar panel to generate some electricity to automatize the process and make some other gadgets

Cameras around the mansion, some metal walls around the perimeter and finally a prototype of a drone Alex had many plans for

If those Pegasuses wanted to fight then they’ll give them the fight of their lives
