Author's Note: Hello everypony I just want to welcome you all to my very first fanfic! I just want to thank to all the people who are reading this and for all the support! Please leave reviews, even if they have some criticism in it! Don't worry I can take it! Now with out further ado Chapter 1!

It was a cold, dark night where me and my partner Stormrunner were training in one of the fiercest lightning storms I've ever seen. You see me and Stormrunner aren't your average Pegasi, we're Shadowbolts. Yeah, that's right we're Shadowbolts. We raid towns and terrorize the skies. My name is Lightning Thrash and this is my story.

You see Stormrunner and I were training in this lightning storm because it helps build your endurance it helps you learn how to keep your attention up at a high level so we could be the best darn Shadowbolts we could be. I decided it would also just be fun to do it because you know, who else wouldn't want to fly in a lightning storm right?

"Hey Lightning! Wanna race back to the hangar?!" Storm yelled to me.

"Would I?! Alright lets see what you got Storm! Ready, Set-..."

I sort of gave myself a head start by cheating. What did you think I was gonna do? Play fair and give Storm the possibility of winning? No sir I'm a Shadowbolt and that's just not what I do! Anyway, I started gaining rapid speed to make sure that my lead wouldn't go to waste. Stormrunner may be more maneuverable than me because he was quite a bit smaller than me but I had I lot more raw power and had a lot more strength than him and was able to travel at greater speeds.

I was able to get a lot of distance away from him as I was dodging lightning whenever it tried to get in my way. But out of the corner of my eye I saw Stormrunner gaining... He was bobbing and weaving in between the lightning bolts faster than anyone I have ever seen! I almost didn't even see him because is charcoal colored coat blended in with the black suit we and to wear along with our face masks and our goggles. But is electric blue hair stood out pretty well.

As Storm was gaining on me I saw something that caught my attention. Static electricity started to gather in and build up in the path that Storm was taking. Then the worst thing that could have happened... The biggest lightning bolt I've ever seen struck Stormrunner right in the back. He started to plummet down to the earth below.

"Storm! No!" I called out to him as he continued to fall.

I dove down as fast as I could to catch up to his unconscious body. I grabbed him and locked my hooves to his body. As we approached the ground I put my back towards the ground to break our fall. This is gonna hurt... As we touched down harshly I felt a unbelievable pain in my wing as we started to skid across the hard turf. When we finally started to slow down my head just happened to make contact with a tree and as soon as that happened I was out cold...

Alright guys that was my very first chapter! I thank you all for reading and I know this chapter is short but I promise the ones to come are longer! So please review and ill try to get chapters posted routinely!
