Stone Blossom
Purging
The shadow creature loomed over her. She thought at any moment it would kill her. But then it left. Where is it going, she thought. But then she realized it. The quarantine zone. They were going to unleash the fog onto the entire city! She had to stop them, but without her armor she was powerless.
"Are they gone," asked a voice. She turned around and saw the chef, Bell Pepper, cowring behind the counter.
"Yes, but stay down and keep all doors and windows shut." She ran outside and saw many ponies in armor carrying spears with them. They were all heading to the quarantine zone. She had to get back home.

The Guardian: Quarantine zone: Abandoned house
An endless swarm of shadow creatures was outside. Half of them were trying to break the spell, and the other half were trying to get him. "We're trapped," said the Voice, still panicked. "You can't let them get me! Please, I don't want to go back!"
I almost have enough energy to warp out, thought the Guardian.
"Good, please do it quickly!" The Guardian kept attacking any corruption that entered the area, and soon the small amount of corruption each one of the creatures had, pooled into him creating a spike. "Do it! NOW!" Then a portal opened under him and sent him to his home.

Stone Blossom: Home
Just two more minutes until her armor was ready. She hoped that hose soliders would be okay. She felt the room shake slightly. Another portal, she thought. She looked outside and saw a familiar creature walking towards her house. At first, she was relieved. This would mean he was fine. But then she remembered the Horror and how it had controlled his body. Then she felt another shake. This one was massive. The spe-, was as far as her thoughts took her as the fog swelled around the city and chocked all life from it.

The Guardian: Home
He rushed into the house while the corrupted fog swirrled around he entire city. He galloped to the bedroom and saw Stone Blossom lying on the ground, covered in a second skin of corruption. She was gone and he couldn't do anything about it. He wished this stupid armor wasn't on him so he coul at least cry. But then he remembered her suitcase. He opened it up and a extraordinarily bright light burned at him. He felt the ligh slowly disintegrate his body. Then the light dimmed and clung to Stone Blossom, who had now been purged of corruption. She stood up, her eyes full of light and gave him a hug.
