Chapter 2: The Potion

(As much as he tried, Newton fell asleep at the crack of dawn. He was awoken by sounds of screaming two hours later.)

Dash: MY WINGS! WHERE ARE MY WINGS!

Fluttershy: My wings are gone too!

Rarity: Oh its horrid! My horn is missing!

Starlight: So is mine!

Newton: Calm down everyone! There's got to be an explanation. We got to do something.

(Everyone had to discuss the issue with Twilight.)

Twilight: I find it strange that Newton and I were the only ones not to have their horns or wings taken.

Newton: Pfft. We got to do something!

Twilight: Hold on, is that an outline on where your wings were Dash?

Dash: Funny. I never noticed that.

Fluttershy: It's on me too.

Rarity: The same thing applies for my horn.

Newton: Maybe the wings were stolen by magic.

Dash: You just said that earlier.

Twilight: With a trauma localization spell, I can find the culprits.

(The culprits turned out to be three unicorns. They all had red eyes and messy manes. One was yellow, another was blue, and the last was red.)

Yellow Unicorn: With a simple nerve numbing spell and an excision spell, Voila! Wings and Horns! Soon, Decepticolt, we'll be alicorns!

Decepticolt: You make look so easy, Goldcap!

Red Unicorn: Then we can take as the rightful princesses of Equestria! With our master, of course! She'll crown us, Princess Goldcap, Princess Decepticolt, and me, Princess Zappityhoof!

Goldcap: Once the wings and horns dissolve in the potion, we shall drink it and we will grow our own wings and get more magic power. Then Equestria shall be ours!

Dash: DISSOLVE?

Twilight: Make themselves into princesses?

Dash: With my wings?

Newton: What do we do?

Dash: I say we take em! There's only three of them, and nine of us!

(Newton then looked at the spell again. He then noticed a pile of Storm Realm swords and spears near the unicorns. He turned and saw everyone else getting prepared.)

Twilight: It's a "do not notice me" field. It will camoflauge us to the background.

Newton: Don't go! They have weapons!

Dash: I think he's chickening out.

Twilight: If you don't want to go Newton, then it's fine with us.

Newton: No! It's Dangerous!

(Everyone just left him standing at the campsite.)

Newton: Rats! I need to find a sword.

(Before he left the Storm Realm, Newton was trained on how to use weaponry. Despite receiving an average grade, he knew how to properly hold a sword. Now, he needed to find one.)


(Twilight and her friends meanwhile, discovered where the unicorns were doing their black magic.)

Twilight(whispering): Here's the plan. Dash and I will rush in and grab the potion. Everyone else will try and hold them off.

Dash: Sounds like a good plan to me.

Twilight(whispering): Let's go.

(The group follows the plan.)

Goldcap: Step away from the bottle!

Twilight: Not anymore. Now I have it.

Dash: Twilight! Help me!

Twilight: Dash!

(Goldcap used this as an opportunity to subdue Twilight.)

Pinkie: Twilight! No!

Zappityhoof: Too late. Your princess cannot save you now.

(Before long, the unicorns imprisoned the Mane Six inside a Storm Cage.)

Pinkie: Funny. This cage looks familiar.

Zappityhoof: Now that we got these creeps out of the way, now we can get on with the creation!

(The wings and horns began to dissolve.)

Dash: MY WINGS!

(The wings and horns dissolved.)

DASH: NOOOOO!

(This was it. The end of Dash. The End of the Mane Six. They were powerless. Weakened. Dash cried in despair.)

Dash: It's over. We messed up. It's wingless life from now on.

Fluttershy: Don't feel bad Dash, even my wings we're taken too.

Twilight: Keep it together everyone! We can fix this!

Dash: It's too late. I'm never going to fly again.

Twilight: There's no such thing as never!

(Goldcap walked up to them.)

Goldcap: Never is forever. And we're making sure of that!

(By this point. The last of the wings and horns dissolved into the potion.)

Twilight: Goldcap, don't you know how forbidden this is?

Goldcap: Hmph! Why? You were just like us. An imbecile. Then you got wings. And yet, you weren't complaining about them.

Twilight: That's not true at all. Being an alicorn means that you're immortal! And being immortal means...

Zappityhoof: We're going to be immortal? Yipee!

Twilight: Being immortal's a curse! Trust me!

Goldcap: You and your petty princesses want all the power to yourself!

Decepticolt: We are different! We're not important?

Twilight: It's not so simple. I was gifted with wings!

Goldcap: And yet, you jumped the shark! You went all this way just to get your friends back and end up like this!

(Twilight tried to say something back. But nothing came in her mind.)

Goldcap: Thought so.

(Twilight buried herself under her hooves and wept.)

Goldcap: Hey! Who are you?

(Everyone looked up. Newton was holding a specialized Storm Sword. A retractable one too.)

Zappityhoof: Move along boy, none of your business here.


(Newton saw Twilight and her friends locked up in the Storm Cage.)

Decepticolt: I said move along. Unless you want to be fed to the pigs.

(Newton walked up to the cage. Goldcap and Decepticolt drew out swords of their own. Zappityhoof wielded a spear.)

Goldcap: I recognize you. You're a Storm Soldier. I can tell by the sword that you're holding.

Decepticolt: Where'd you get that sword, then? You couldn't have had the sword that advanced.

Newton: None of your freaking business.

Goldcap: We're going to feed you to the pigs.

(Newton drew out his sword. He had to stand on his hind legs and hold the sword with both of his hooves.)

Goldcap: That sword's too big for you, boy. You can barely-

Newton(interrupting): Get back from my friends.

Goldcap: So you're friends with the princess. I bet our master would like a sword like that.

(Goldcap swung her sword at Newton. Newton blocked it. She did it again. Newton also blocked that attack too.)

Goldcap: We'll have that sword, boy.

(Newton stared at his sword.)

Newton: Screw. You.

(Everyone gasped.)

Twilight: Did he just...

Fluttershy: No...

(Newton approached to Goldcap. He swung his sword. Goldcap merely blocked it. Newton swung his sword again. Goldcap parried and disarmed Newton. Newton fell to the ground. Goldcap picked up the sword and gave orders to her friends.)

Goldcap: Finish this stupid soldier.

Decepticolt: Pathetic.

(Newton backed up in fear. He saw a pitchfork and a handaxe. He picked up the pitchfork. Just as Decepticolt was about to strike, Newton blocked her attack with the pitchfork and disarmed her that way. Newton then swung his pitchfork like a baseball bat. It knocked Decepticolt unconscious. Zappityhoof was up next. She attacked. Newton dodged. Zappityhoof attacked again. Newton dodged. Goldcap raised her sword. Newton tackled and disarmed her. Newton ran for the sword. Goldcap blasted magic on Newton's back leg.)

Newton: Agh!

(Goldcap then took out a Storm Dagger and attacked. Newton grabbed her front hooves and struggled.)

Pinkie: Isn't this a little too dark for a young audience?

(Newton pointed the dagger away from his face. He managed to push Goldcap to the ground and knock her out. Zappityhoof charged at Newton but she tripped over Goldcap. Newton picked up the sword and pointed at her.)

Zappityhoof: Mercy! Please! I beg of you!

(That just made Newton more furious.)

Zappityhoof: I have a family! They'll never survive without me! I was only fooling around!

Dash: Finish her!

(Newton, however, chose mercy.)

Zappityhoof: Thank you.

(Zappityhoof got up and ran off.)

Goldcap: Coward. The Master will see you dead for this!

(Goldcap ran off too, leaving the potion behind. Newton then unlocked the cage.)

Newton: Let's get out of here!

(The group ran off. Twilight grabbed the potion along the way.)
