It was about the time for lunch and Green Shock, in her newly built house, was getting ready to take a look at the library if everything is alright, not that Spike couldn't look after things but she went there with Bombinomicon anyways.
After some minutes of walking they finally reached the library, and when Green Shock was about opening the door, it suddenly opened up before she could do it, revealing a really tense and panicing Spike there with a letter in his claws.
Green Shock immediately knew that there was something horrible coming again, but she let Spike start the conversation, which he did.
"Green Shock! I'm so glad that you are here! Princess Luna just sent me a letter, and she said that she had a horrible vision of some… I don't know what thing that are about to attack, but this time not Ponyville, but they are going towards cloudsdale. She written that they can't fly, but somehow attack in the somehow, and they'll be there soon! And she also said that we should keep this a secret, because she don't want panic!" Finished Spike making Green Shock to gasp.
"Hey! We fast have to get to the harmonics! Where is the wheel?!" Asked also Bombinomicon thinking that it may help.
"We don't have time for that!" Shouted Green Shock as she started running towards the construction site.
"Are you sure that guy is not joking? I can believe th…" Started Bombinomicon as being carried by Green Shock.
"No! He's Twilight's assistant!" Said the unicorn trying to fasten up, but being a unicorn meant bad physical abilities at the most, and it was true on Green Shock who started sweating by now.
"Well, I would simply trick my master if with that I could get out under his control… Wait, why aren't you using magic to teleport?" Asked the book confused.
But Green Shock just blinked at him once and said: I'm not good with teleportation spells!"
"Then how could you open portals between universes?" Asked Bombinomicon still in calm voice that annoyed Green Shock a bit but while blinking once in tiredness from the running she said:
"My brother helped me and…" But suddenly she felt over a box on the ground and she felt on the ground with her face crashing in the ground.
From the pain, some tears came down on her face but she fast stood up shook of the dirt and continued the way while getting some confused expressions…
"Are you alright?" Asked Bombinomicon who meanwhile took the control over his own levitation and was trying to keep up his mana.
"Y… Yes I'm… Fine…" Said Green Shock but her voice really expressed pain and hopelessness and Bombinomicon also saw the dried tears on her face as she was running with her full speed.
She was really angry with herself. How could Scout make so big distances so fast and not even tiring out?! But she immediately dismissed the idea because it just held him back from giving everything in for the running.
Finally she reached the edge of the town leaving the town behind and now only the dirt path was ahead with nothing blocking her, but by now almost all her stamina was gone. But somehow, even she didn't knew how, she got some energy from nowhere, giving herself a little boost.
"I can't go further! My mana is off!" Shouted Bombinomicon as he stopped fast so he want fall on the ground, but Green Shock continued her way, and her hooves were already very sore but she finally noticed the fortress…
She reached it in about a minute to see that they were nowhere! That was a huge hit at her, but she fast ran inside because they may be there… But there was no one…
She stood there with open mouth for some seconds but fast started to look around the base… It really was a big place and she couldn't find them! The clock was ticking and she had to act fast… Suddenly after a corridor she noticed a stair downstairs.
She immediately started in that direction, and ran down there. There she finally noticed the Harmonics and Zanveron who were discussing something, but when noticing her they immediately stopped and turned around…
"What the hell? Is this a training camp or what?" Asked Scout as he fast ran to Green Shock catching her before she could fall on the floor from being very exhausted… "Are you an athlete or what? Drink this thing fast!" Said Scout as taking a can of Bonk and gave it to Green Shock.
First she didn't know if she really should but then Scout motioned her by saying: "Come on! I haven't got all day! This gonna give back your energy for some time!"
So she drank it in one and she really felt that she is filled with stamina again and she shook her head in disbelief. "Now, whaz's zbe mazzer of being so hurry?" Asked Medic as also raising his medi-gun at her that calmed her down.
Y… You fast have to get to Cloudsdale! An attack is waited there!" Said fast Green Shock but the other just raised eyebrows at each other not really believing her, only Steve got alarmed and he fast stood up.
"Let's go!" Said Steve really as getting some kind of potion in his hand that was colored blue.
The other looked at him also but still without reactions.
"Haven't you heard her? We have to get going!" Said again Steve as pushing them towards the exit.
Suddenly all of them remembered that Steve is the bearer of the medal of harmony and fast got ready for the trip.
Engineer fast got his item dispenser with the other also taking everything important and they needed and they were already out of the base.
"I don't want to make us hopeless, but how are we going to get there in time? It's a very long trip there, and we…" Started Zanveron but got cut by Steve.
"I have the solvation for that! These here are speed potions on the maximum level, we are going to use them!" Said Steve confusing the others but Pyro fast turned to Green Shock and said:
"Mhhpp mphhh mhhp hmmph! Mphhhh hmmmp phmmm!" Knowing that Green Shock who meanwhile lost the effect of the Bonk, and already was laying on the ground didn't understood anything, but didn't even wanted to.
"Hey! We are going to leave her here! We need to get going!" Said Scout with an impatient expressions.
Just as he said that Steve nodded and threw the potion on the ground, and suddenly all of them felt a strange feeling…
"Let's go! Shouted Steve as starting to run very fast, surprising the others, but they started running too…
Meanwhile at the Cloudsdale arena the Wonderbolts just finished their performance, and now came a little break between this and the second one, so now everyone was just resting, while everything was in silence filled with tense.
The break was nearing its end, when suddenly the loud speaker sounded…
"My little ponies! It's your princess talking to you now. I know that all of you waited for this event for very long, and you came from even the deserts, mountains or from the other cloud town called Drullage and other part of our kingdom but I'm sorry to announce, that this event is postponed to another time, because we are expecting some visitors who came to ruin this event, so I ask all of you to get back at the places where you are staying at, and try to not come out until getting the permission, and those who don't have a place to stay, they can stay here in the arena, where we try to give all the defense with our guards, and everything else we need. But not only here, but in all of Cloudsdale there will be guards spread out. But I must ask all of you, to not leave cloudsdale because we don't know where to expect the visitors from."
All of the ponies looked horrified at the thing that Princess Celestia just said and they didn't understood why they had to do all this, but since their princess asked them, they acted just like told them, and none of them flew off of Coudsdale but everyone went in their houses, hotels or stayed in the arena.
Meanwhile the Rainbow Dash's team was also getting ready to leave the arena, and Sky Scratcher looked up at Rainbow Dash. "Dash, I have place in my house where you could stay, are you coming?" Asked the yellow furred pony.
"No, I'll find out what's going on!" Said Rainbow Dash and she was already off to the administration room to find the princess.
Sky Scratcher looked at the other members of the team but they also just gave sad looks and shook their heads.
The Pegasus sighed and turned around to get out of the arena just like the others did…
Rainbow Dash fast flew through the door of the room where the princess gave out her orders, and she took the advantage of her speed, and tricked the guards, getting inside with them not being able to do anything, just then realize that they let her inside…
"Princess! Why we had to stop the competition?! We haven't even performed yet!" Said Rainbow Dash annoyed as stomping on the ground.
Suddenly the guards also came in and fast shouted: "Stop right there! You don't have per…
But Princess Celestia stopped them by raising a hoof and said: "You may leave now."
The guards were confused but backed out of the room and said: "We sorry your highness."
The alicorn nodded with still serious expression. "My subject, why can I welcome here? I thought I gave my orders."
"I'm sorry Princess, but I'm not leaving 'till I get the reason why we had to stop the competition!" Said Rainbow Dash putting away her politeness.
Princess Celestia sighed and knew that she was angry for a reason, but something else was also bothering her so she answered calmly. "There are some hostile creature nearing cloudsdale, who are well armed and…"
"Then how we can't know where they are coming from?!"
"First, my sister had a vision about all this happening, and on second hand, one of my scouts brought the information about them… but before telling us where they came from, he… faded…" Said Princess Celestia with a sad look as she closed her eyes for a second.
"We don't know how, but the Harmonic warrior are the most effective against anything thrown at Equestria, so I called for their help and they should be here soon…" Said the ruler but wasn't really sure, because she hasn't got a response from Spike.
Rainbow Dash had an expression of angriness on her face for some reason that Princess Celestia couldn't tell, but saw that she was even ready to kill… She haven't seen an expression like this for a long time, and she couldn't know why she was acting like this, like madness took over her…
"Then I'm going to fight!" Said Rainbow Dash and immediately took off, leaving.
Even Rainbow Dash couldn't knew why it happened to her. It was happening in about some minutes… Somehow the dark side of her took the leading. In the morning she wasn't feeling so angry, it was true that her smile was fake, but the anger didn't felt so… amazing for her.
She couldn't see, but meanwhile in the Canterlot castle her element changed to dark red color…
She fast flew off Cloudsdale under all the clouds for the future place of the battlefield. At the moment she couldn't see anyone there but she flew down on the ground.
He landed with the dust flying up all over, but still not seeing them, she was just standing there, waiting for the harmonics to come…
A/N: My friecking… Ugh, this was such a rush… I don't know why I'm writing it so rapidly… well never mind, hope you enjoyed it, and stay tuned to find out if Rainbow Dash really will fight, or to get to know what the reason for her acting like this is and if they would ever will be together with Scout or if you like battle scenes! And as always, thanks for reading...
