"Just run! I'll handle this!" Spike roared.
"Stay all you want, ponies. Turbo would LOVE a dessert!" The dragon squealed. He threw his claw forward to jab Spike. Spike tried to block, but the sheer force pinned him against the wall. Turbo flicked his tail back, trapping him.
"Oh no, you don't!" I shot him in the face. It made a quarter-sized whole in his chin. He just kept going.
"I'll get help!" Scootaloo raced off. I continued to gun Turbo, but it didn't seem to be working.
"Only one shot left. Make it count!" Sweetie Belle yelled. Everything seemed to go in slow motion. I aimed at Turbo's face. I pulled the trigger. The bullet sailed through the air…and clanged off. It was all over.
Suddenly, Scootaloo came back with Twilight Sparkle. "I know just the spell to help you! It's failsafe!"
"Didn't your failsafe spell fail in the Discord Wars?"
"Do you have a choice?" Twilight cast a beam of red energy. Turbo was thrashed against the floor.
"I think I know what you're going for." Sweetie Belle said. She cast her own beam. It hit Turbo. He exploded into a very pretty red splat. Just kidding. No need to use Rainbow Dash language. He exploded into a pool of blood.
More importantly, something appeared on Sweetie Belle's flank. A red beam of light! She finally had her cutie mark! I quickly picked up the Element. "An Element AND a cutie mark in one mission? Pretty good."
"So what's next?" Scootaloo asked.
"Pinkie Pie. Let's see." I grabbed the laptop. "Oh no! It says she'll be assassinated tomorrow!"
"When?"
"It doesn't say. Just leaked information."
"Then we'll just have to get to her first."
"Let's go!"
