Masked Matterhorn The Beginning Chapter 3 Chase a bug

Hazy dreams clouded Spike's judgement but one thing made sense and Twilight was sitting next to his hospital bed reading a book.

"Hey" said Spike weakly.

Twilight heard his voice and rushed towards him holding his hand with tears of joy.

"You ok Twi?" asked Spike squeezing her hand softly.

"Now I am" replied Twilight hugging him passionately.

The doctor walked in clearing his throat and Twilight let go. He did some last minute checks just to make sure everything was ok, a few mins later Spike was cleared to leave the hospital.

"So what happened to me? All I remember was fighting this guy then everything went black" recalled Spike trying to remeber what went on.

"Well you were under someone's mind control" explained Twilight getting in the car.

Spike didn't know if he should drive after his sudden headache by a light armored boot to the nose thanks to Twilight.

"Hey Twi can you drive this time?" asked Spike.

Twilight nodded and got in the drivers seat then drove off. As they were heading home it seemed that their was a 12 car pileup on the interstate.

"What's going on?" asked Spike looking out the window.

Puppet's strings picked up yhe cars blocking his way and proceeded to get close to Twilight making her nervous but kept her cool, she took a deep breath and drove backwards then turned around and sped up into the city.

"Hang on Spike!" yelled Twilight as he did so by buckling himself.

Puppet was hot on their trail as Twilight tried to shake him off but his eyes were locked on her as he used his strings to make the car flip 5 times before hitting the pavement.

Twilight crawled out first then Spike until they both stood up to see Puppet surrounded by mind controlled people.

"Oh my god..." said Spike.

The sight of seeing that was enough to send a shockwave of chills down Twilight's spine but she knew she didn't want to stop now.

Spike grabbed his extending staff while Twilight suited up.

"You two wouldn't dare harm innocent bystanders, that is not in your quota" said Puppet trying to syke them out.

Twilight automatically set her suit to stun so no civilian gets hurt and Spike activated his stunning attacks before they both attacked. Puppet controlled the people to attack but to avail as Spike spinned his staff knocking someone out while Twilight used quick stun attacks to keep them at bay. Spike did a quick swipe on the pavement to distract them so that Twilight could activate a soundmaker, breaking them all from their trance.

"I'm impressed Miss Sparkle, between you and Spike even when faced with adversity nothing can come between you both" expressed Puppet.

"What are you going on about?" asked Twilight sternly.

"Clearly me and Chrysalis cannot wait until we take you both down" said Puppet disappearing in a cloud of smoke.

Twilight's suit went back to being a belt buckle as Spike put his staff away and they were able to get the civilians to a hospital to treat their wounds. Watching them go inside the hospital almost put Twilight to tears but held it back.

"Twi you know I'm starting to get used to this whole hero thing" said Spike excited.

Twilight said nothing and walked home.

I wonder what's wrong thought Spike closely following Twilight home.

Coming home, Spike couldn't be more happy to be back inside but he walked in the library with curiosity filling his mind noticing Twilight sitting alone staring at a picture of her mother before she passed away when she graduated college.

Spike walked in and sat next to Twilight.

"Spike do you think mom is proud that I'm doing this?" asked Twilight doubting herself.

"She is looking down at you and smiling because your mother knows you are using every method possible to get the job done" explained Spike.

Hearing those words for the first time and from her assistant made Twilight's ears light up like it was Christmas.

"So your doing a good job?" proclaimed Spike.

Twilight embraced him tightly with tears streaming down her face.

Spike returned the hug and stroked her hair to calm Twi down.

"Don't worry we will get through this...together" promised Spike smiling.

Chrysalis was sipping some coffee until her sweetheart came along sitting next to her.

"It seems that Twilight proves to be more of a challenge than we originally thought" started Chrysalis.

"No matter my darling, like I said all minds can be broken if you give them the right motivation" said Puppet creating a string on the table before making it disappear.

"Are you certain my darling?" asked Chrysalis.

"Yes" replied Puppet placing a gentle kiss on her lips.

Chrysalis smiled and returned the kiss.
