"But... are you sure that this is the right thing to do?"
.
"I don't know... I don't know, is just... I can take it."
.
"Is there anything that i-"
.
"No, you can't... I'm sorry, you were just trying to help me... I was being too harsh with you... but all this is just.."
.
"I know how you feel."
.
"... Is just... i don't know what to think anymore."
.
"Well, it seems like that it cannot be avoided. After listening to that stupid dictaphone, there no turning back. You won't even- "
.
"Not this time. I will not warn Princess Celestia. Not now."
.
"So this is what happened to our friends. Pinkie was just instrumental."
.
"Don't say anything more... please."
.
"I will follow you, no matter what. But do you know where we're headed?"
.
"I don't know. I just want disappear and have some time to reflect."
.
"Really?"
.
"This will not be a peaceful walk, Spike. I don't even think i want to return to my remaining friends, as completely broken as i am now."
.
The sun rised to celebrate the dawn as it's rays bowed down on a workshop nearby Ponyville. There was a sign with the words "Machinery Work Association" on the door.
.
Antiblue has just arrived on the place and went inside the workshop.
.
The mare started a conversation with the mechanicians of the place, who were aware of the Enhanced Wraiths since they previously stumbled into a few of them and survived, knowing already about Necro Meele being Celestia's second in command and the responsable for the creation of these monsters after having eavedropped a conversation between some of undead creatures during their escapes. One in particular, a violet maned azure earth mare with rectangular glasses named Kilo Drive, for most of the ponies K.D, that Antiblue met in some occasional visits during her forced volunteering.
.
Kilo Drive was upset due to Antiblue's request, especially since the violet mare had already put her long giant chainsaw on the table.
.
"I understand repairing a train or Rarity's sewing machine, but you are actually asking me to remodel your wretched chainsaw!? What's up with you!?" said shocked K.D.
.
"I'm going to kill Necro Meele. Look, i don't have the instruments to do remodel it by my own hooves. Which is why i want make use of your skills. Besides, you know why i will do it. You saw those undead creatures in action."
.
"I know but we... We won't commit murder!" Protested K.D. "Since i'm the head of this association, i'm delegated to talk with you. It's a pity that these ponies, and probably your friends, were turned into undead abominations, but... We don't want have any is none of our concern, including for the fact that Necro Meele herself is protected by Celestia. We don't want have any problem. If we help you out, we could also be targeted by Necro Meele, or be hunted down by the authorities for attempted murder, or worst of all being punished by Celestia if she want to! I have a association to protect. Now please, leave."
.
But Antiblue ignored K.D.'s attempt to kick her out and looked at them with a frank look that does not leave them any excuses, as if was to make clear something that they cannot avoid.
.
"Then explain your current situation." she said. "Whatever happens, you lot will be caught up in other pony's business soon. Necro Meele will no doubt begin to kill, take and resurrect in that way unrelated to her list of necessary victims, which of course will include even yours. So tell me, how many of your friends, coworkers and relatives would be alright with that happening to?"
.
The mechanician ponies pondered about what she said. After being verbaly cornered by that worst prevision, they decided to take the whole question more carefully. Nopony dared to spoke, not even hazarding a prognostic, until one them being a low statured red maned pale blue earth mare started to talk.
.
"If you permit me..." said the mare.
.
"Tera Gear?" called surprised K.D.
.
"Getting involved would have risk, but doing nothing is even worst because that will only delay the unavoidable. However with the first option we've some sort of a chance."
.
"..."
.
K.D. couldn't help, but give credit to Tera's words. Despite her inner denial, that cannot be avoided. Once Necro Meele had finished with most of the ponies and living creatures in Equestria, it's obvious that they will going after her and her association mechinacian azure mare looked at Antiblue while trying to maintain her cool.
.
"Let's get things straight." said K.d. "There's no estimate. Is not my intention to overcharging for the remodelling costs. However cheapt parts will decrease its level of perfection. Plus, not matter the situation, the economy is still flowing in it's own way, so that necessity is still involved. I know that will sounds stupid or selfish to you, but we need money for that. We have also our pride, so we cannot make any exceptions."
.
"That's not a problem." said Antiblue as she rummaged the pockets of her bag and pulled out a big sack.
.
"Antiblue, what are-"
.
"If it's money you need then use this! I did act as a mineral scavenger and seller to get as much as i can, even if this practice is illegal..."
.
Antiblue dropped the big sack on the table as it opened and revealed a lot of bits.
.
"Whoaaa...!" esclaimed all the ponies except Antiblue.
.
"A-are you doing that for real!?" said shocked Tera.
.
"ONE THOUSAND BITS!?" exclaimed loudly one of the technicians.
.
"How's that?!" asked Antiblue.
.
K.D. was stunned by the huge amount of money that Antiblue managed to gain. She wasn't even sure if call it blessing or insanity. The azure mare started also to question the violet mare's sanity. Given the situation, she would choice the inconceivable to protect her coworkers.
.
"Kilo Drive?" said Tera.
.
K.D. adjusted her glasses and lift her glance toward the violet mare's face.
.
"How many days can you give us...?" asked K.D.
.
"The time you can give me of course." said Antiblue.
.
A week later, Antiblue retrieved her now powered up long giant chainsaw, that looked exactly the same, except for some surprises, including the buttons hidden in the handle's rubberd cover. These have some functions, including the chainsaw blade position change and one the revved up the chainsaw blades at the same way as the normal pulling cord except that depended by how much the button was holded. But these functions were the only ones.
.
Antiblue went out of the workshop and walked on her way until she stumbles into a half suspiscious mail earth stallion.
.
"Sorry to bother you, but i had to ask you something." said the stallion.
.
"What?" asked Antiblue.
.
"Two days ago i was walking in the streets of Canterlot, doing my delivery duties when suddenly a cloacked pony gave me a object and asked to deliver that to a certain black maned violet mare. Is that you?"
.
"Who sent you to look for me and why?"
.
"He prefered to remain anonymous, but he confided me one thing. He though that you could give the object to you without being noticed. Yes, i know. It's suspicious as you can think."
.
"What object?"
.
"This one."
.
The stallion checked in his bag and pulled out a dictaphone. Antiblue became a little confused about it.
.
"A little strange. Wasn't that a item usually used by the authorities in case of need?"
.
"Even i found this bizarre. Look, i don't want have any trouble with the guards, so i give this to you."
.
"I'm not interested, I'm not keeping that with me," said Antiblue. "but you will at least give it to the owners of that workshop behind me. Could you do that?"
.
"Yes, but first, i want to ask you one question. Did you know why Ponyville is so desolated?"
.
"Come to think when i visited the town, only few ponies were in the street before i came there."
.
"I think that was a natural reaction. When i was traveling toward Ponyville, i saw a flying figure diving toward the town. That looked like a female pegasus, except that she had two huge metallic wings instead of the normal ones, her lower part being a huge serpentine tail and was flying at a very unequine flight speed."
.
"What?" said surprised Antiblue.
.
"Are you serious" said K.D. coming out of the workshop.. "Are you sure to have saw that?"
.
"Yes. Some of inhabitants of Ponyville saw her crushing on the town and talking to a shopkeeper who approached her. According to them, she said to be a Wonderbolt, and then she was asked about her bizarre body, she said that it was mangled due to a horrible incident and that a benefactor had rebuild it... even if i don't know how." said the mail pony.
.
Antiblue glared at him, but for other reasons. She seemed to know about it.
.
"A benefactor you said?" said irritated Antiblue.
.
"Yes, a benefactor. But i don't know who is it. But i can tell you this. Two days ago, i was in Cloudsdale when i saw a strange episode happened. The pegasi of the city looked at me with a ferocious distrust like i wasn't welcomed here, though that i don't know why. They acted very strangely. I decided to go away to avoid any problem that i can do about it when i stumbled into the bizarre pegasus talking to herself as she waited for somepony. I was eavesdropping her when she mentioned a plan that they were carrying out from two weeks ago."
.
"What plan?"
.
"A plan that consisted to take some ponies, which the majority of them being pegasi who failed their flying tests, and bring them into a place outside Cloudsdale. They call it Rainbow Sanctuary."
.
"Rainbow Sanctuary?"
.
"I don't know very much about it, but, according to them, is a place where the rainbows where created. But the way in which she talked about it was a very grim one. That doesn't sounds good. Probably she has something to do with it."
.
"What do you mean?" said worried K.D..
.
"What she said?" asked Antiblue
.
"I don't know for sure, but she said that she will help in the improvement of the factory in order to help somepony... if i can rememeber that name... Necro Meele i guess."
.
Antiblue expression turned into a grim one upon hearing her name. She turned to K.D. as her face suggested her intentions of doing something insane.
.
So She turned to K.D. as her face suggested her intentions of doing something insane.
.
"K.D?" called Antiblue.
.
"What are you going to do?" asked nervous K.D..
.
"I'ts time to deliver one hell of a package."
.
A very darkened warehouse was illuminated by only three small lights in the ceiling. Three pegasi were talking to eachothers as four of them were dragging a big rectangular metal box. Once they managed to put it in the center of the room, the four ones they decided to recover their breath consumed by the ordeal made difficult by the weight of the object.
.
The three pegasi were wearing white coats. They were observing the object with a dumbfounded surprise.
.
"You better believe that. It is unusual." said a male pegasus.
.
"What are you talking about?" said another male pegasus.
.
"You know, usually the pegasi that failed the flying tests were delivered from Cloudsdale's flying fields to our base. But this time a donation happened." said a female pegasus.
.
"Really?"
.
"Yeah. Some mail pony delivered this big box. That contains a lot of pegasi of course, who failed their tests somewhere else. And, yes, those tests outside Cloudsdale were legal."
.
"How could you know that?"
.
"Is wrote in this letter. It's signed by Necro Meele. There is no problem."
.
"That... is a generous offer, but something seems off to me. That is so not in the main procedure."
.
"Maybe we should take a look to the content first." said the first male pegaus.
.
All the nine pegasi surrounded the box, knowing the content according to the letter, but they cannot be sure of that without seeing by themselves.
.
One of them tried to remove the cover, starting by remove the seals, one by one. Once these are completely removed, they opened the box. Much to their surprise, they find a pile of bodies. Unconscious pegasi were herded one on the other.
.
They weren't expecting this huge amount of ponies inside the box. They didn't know how to take it.
.
"Wow. I didn't know that a special flying test was going outside Cloudsdale, but... Is rather strange that so many pegasi attended these testes and failed simultaneously." said confused the second male pony.
.
"Atop of that, why knocked them out and stuff them into a metal box? Could they simply follow the main procedure: Just taking them away from the public and bring them on the main entrance? Look i will take that as a exception, but that is just too time consuming." said the female pegasus.
.
To check if they are the real ones, the first male pegasus layed his hoof on one of the bodies and touched it. In that instant, all of the bodies suddenly bursted into a watery explosion that covered the coated pegasi, almost blinding them.
.
A sudden n sharp pain invaded them as their naked part of their bodies started to emit vapors from them. Then stiches and some opened wounds started to appear to their skin, revealing their true forms.
.
"I could barely see anything, but... Wait! We are exposed! What is the meaning of this!?" screamed the first pegasus.
.
"I don't know!" said the female pegasus.
.
They couldn't have the time to make sense in what just happened that they were brutally met by the long giant chainsaw protunding from inside the box and started to cut down all the undead pegasi in one rotatory movement, destroying all of their head without letting them the time to scream even further.
.
The chainsaw then withdraw itself back to the box as the undead pegasi's bodies were falling. As their blood spurted and some of their organs fell to the ground, Antiblue emerged in bipedal position from the metal box, wielding her chainsaw with both her hooves. Antiblue beneath her, looking at a destroyed jewel nearby her hind hooves.
.
"Is a good thing that those douchebags have fallen for this illusion generated by this artifact." She said. "Since i had not intention to being literally plagued, create the realistic illusion of this pile of pegasi's bodies on my body was really safe and cheap. That also allowed to ingnite a Enhanced Polydevourer filled explosive. Hopefully my chainsaw protected me from that. His current resistance is pretty remarkable."
.
The violet mare dropped her chainsaw to the ground outside the metal box before before coming out of the box and returning into the four legged position after she landed.
.
"Let see if this gratuitous tour will give me a real pay off."
.
Antiblue took the chainsaw by the handle with her teeth and walked toward one of the doors.
.
She walked through a barely illuminated dark corridor. After a little long time, she reached the door to the bottom it. Once the mare entered went in, she was struck by a slight surprise. She has no reason to be too this much of it. The scenario that is presented in front of her should match the mail pony's description. However the real surprise is that the she is in surpasses that.
.
Antiblue took a look around her surrounding and beneath the platform where she is now, and confirmed most of her theories. She realized to find herself in a upper floor of a facility, but not a very good one.
.
"So that is the place were they're making those rainbows."
.
The grim spectacle is a huge one. The complex was full of machinery and signs. The sound of metal moving, pressing or stomping, a long "whirr" and some occasional alarm noises merged together to create the cacophonic chorus that made clear this place's crude identity.
.
Plus, there is the personal. White coated pegasi were deporting some ponies, in which most of them are also pegasi, in prison cells or even putting them into some machines that the mare can see in the distance.
.
But more present than these things are the transparent tubes spewing some liquids, each one of the color corresponding these of a rainbow. They were connecting some strange capsules to some machines pumping their colored liquids in separated metal recipients. Antiblue already guessed what could be the secret of these so called rainbows. The mare didn't liked that at all.
.
"Demented bastards." said Antiblue. "I cannot believe they are doing that. The rainbow were already made in Cloudsdale in another way through another type of factory, so why build this place? I guess that Necro Meele commissioned it's construction in order to murder and create Enhanced Wraiths more efficently."
.
Antiblue paused. She then took another look to both the colored liquid filled tubes and the pumping machines, asking the purpose behind their functions.
.
"These rainbows were created with some of the ponies' shredded bodies and their blood while selective only a few to kill them and deliver their entire bodies entirely. But why create this kind of rainbows?"
.
The mare looked up to and glanced upon the upper floors, guessing that the main offices are over there, judging by a some pegasi acting as the security.
.
Antiblue returned her attention to the path since, trying to establish what to do first.
.
"I won't just save Ruby, Sapphire and the other prisoners. I'm going to demolish this entire place permanently. In this way, i will lure out Celestia out of her pedestal and use the polydevourer formula just to expose her appearance, if she has really become a Enhanced Wraith. That will be also a great loss for Necro Meele."
.
The mare sighed in sign of annoyance for the whole rescue part that she has to do before going to the actual demolition. Lead some innocent ponies into their death is not a option. That is a good way to screw over Necro Meele. She will not be happy to hear about the possible destruction of the facility.
.
"Tch. Looks i like i have some much work to do."
.
The mare pulled out from her bag the Invisibility Opal that Chrome gave to her and made it glow, turning her invisible along with the bag and the chainsaw.
.
The power of invisibility and the Aura Phaser already affecting her presence are a very lethal combination. The phaser concealed Antiblue's existence from any magical detection and the invisibility made her job a little easier.
.
The violet earth pony began to wander to the halls and rooms of the factory without being noticed. Place after place, she studied the geography of the facility by memorizing every place and whereabouts. Hopefully her photographic memory helped her a lot. Antiblue started her walk into the lower floors. These one looked very grim and darkened. Antiblue walked through a series of halls full of vibrating machines. There are so much hanging wires and steaming pipes in her path that she had to be careful about where she is stepping. She goes toward her own path, undetected by some suited pegasi passing nearby her thanks to the amulets.
.
"I don't even bother to ask that. These pegasi are Enhanced Wraiths too." said Antiblue in her mind.
.
What lies beyond the corridor in front of her get darker and darker as she goes deeper. The mare followed one of the suited ponies going in that direction. She finally entered into a big room. At one end of the room, there are six square vats. Each one was filled with one different color. Above them was a peculiar looking machine. Above the vats there are some tubes. There was a opening at the top of the machine, being red with rust.
.
Antiblue could see without even approaching the machine that the rust was actually blood. Blood coming from the remains of the past victims who had their bodies literally shredded before being thrown in that opening.
.
"Could this tour get even more screwed up?." Said Antiblue in her mind.
.
She looked up and saw a very macabre spectacle that answered her question.
.
Even further above that was a complex looking object, there was a chained female pegasus being pierced by a mechanical sharped blade passing through her chest. Her body started to spasm and blood was gushing out of her wounds and dripping from the blade. The blade then pulled itself out of her body as her consciousness started her trip toward the oblivion. Chains untwisted and the shackles opened, causing her body to fall inside the opening. The machine started to pump and spew their brilliant colors from the tubes.
.
Antiblue then looked down on the floor and noticed some of the prisoners. Some of them chatting quietly or even weeping, utterly marked deeply by their imprisonment. A few of these ponies are even tortured. Antiblue looked a the obscene entirety of the room in muted disgust.
.
"This is a literal hell." said Antiblue before turning her head toward the suited pegasi as they were talking.
.
"Can you believe it? All that Spectra assimilated in these machines? Is all better than the smallest one outside these halls." said one of them.
.
"You noticed that just now? I worked here since the beginning of this project. But not get exhalted by all of this. Not everypony were shredded and converted into Spectra for the rainbows. Necro Meele needed some corpses if they are good, you know?" said another one.
.
The mare turned toward were she come from and goes away from the room with a bad taste in her mouth.
.
After seven minutes, Antiblue reached the upper floors and started to explore in search for a map. Much to her delusions, there aren't any office in her sight. But there are still rooms in the corridor in front of her. She checked any room with no result until she stumbles in two particular rooms: One for the meetings and the other one for the surveillance. The rest of the rooms are just archive for their documents and list of victims.
.
Antiblue went in the surveilance room and took a quick look in the room until her eyes managed to find a map of the entire factory on the wall. She then proceded toward the meeting room and hide herself behind a wall. Three pegasi were present inside the room as she continued to watch the scene.
.
"Is supposed they are some of the supervisors of this hellhole. This is gonna be boring, but at least i'm going to get some information from them without even ask to them."
.
"Let's just say that this project is going smoothly... Except for a little delay. Seriously, where is the next wave?" said a female pegasus.
.
"Are you talking about the next group of victims? I'm sorry, Leaf Shocker, but that is gonna be delayed due to the deception of one of Necro Meele's second in command." said a male pegasus.
.
"Noooooooo!" said shocked Leaf. "Are you serious, Gale Geosphere? One of us turned against us!?"
.
"Necro Meele should have took care of it by now." said Gale.
.
The female pegasus looked at the second male pegasus, who remained silent with a grim expression.
.
"Dr. Violet Blud. You didn't said a word since the start of this meeting. Is there any problem?" asked Leaf.
.
"We have in FACT a problem. And EXCUSE me the emphasis. But in the warehouse, a crime of elevated brutality has been commited. Some members of our staff has their real appearances somehow exposed and are been completely butchered without any mercy." said Violet.
.
Both the other two pegasi gasped in horror.
.
"What the..!?" said Leaf.
.
"Butchered!?... Are we dealing with the so called traitor?" asked paranoid Gale.
.
"I don't know. But we have a intruder in our sanctuary." said Violet "I don't know how is that evenpossible, but i will go to the machinery room just to see what is going on. I won't allow this massacre to continue."
.
"Are you going to give the alarm?" asked Leaf.
.
Violet take a brief pause before giving his answer.
.
"No." said Violet, leaving Leaf and Gale a little shocked. "I'm not going to interrupt the daily work. The Spectra harvest must continue. We need these rainbows. After all, they are a perfectfuel. Now if you excus- yeah, you get it. Let's just say that you are dismissed."
.
Violet Blud walked toward the corridor and turned to the right. He then encounters something unexpected: A little pegasus filly standing in front of him. That couldn't be possible.
.
"How did you get there?" said irritated Violet.
.
Scared by his voice, the filly turn around and started to run away from him.
.
"Hey! You're not going anywhere, you insolent failure!"
.
Violet started to chase her down in flight, armed with some sort of tuzzer. He shoot it at her, but she managed to dodged all the voltaic charges, much to his surprise.
.
The escape of the filly continued for a while until she turned toward the opened door and went in.
.
"Hah! That is the storeroom! You trapped yourself!" exulted Violet before his euphoria became replaced with confusion. "... But who could have possibly left the door opened. That is- Violet, wake up, that isn't important right now! You have a duty to carry out!"
.
The suited pegasus landed in front of the door and glanced upon the filly, cornered against the wall. The room is a really dark one without the light switched on. Violet smirked disturbingly and dashed aggressively toward her. He was reaching the filly then suddenly she disappeared from his sight. Violet was even more confused.
.
"Wait! That is not possible! A pegasus cannot use magic! Where did she go!?"
.
The door behind him suddenly closed, obscuring the entire room. He couldn't see anything in this darkness. He didn't have the time to turn his head toward the door that something made of glass hitted and smashed against him, covering him with something liquid. He yelled for the sudden sharp pain he was experiencing. He could feel something sharp protunding from his wings. Violet realized that his body is changing for the reason he know very well, but it was too late. Before he could fight back the pain, Antiblue appeared from behind him, wielding her giant chainsaw, standing on her two hind legs and ready to strike.
.
"Behind you, fucker." she said before tearing him apart with a oblique swift swing, severing him from his lower body, leaving him falling on the ground with nothing morw with his head, his hooves and some of his exposed organs.
.
Violet screamed in utter agony, slamming his hoof against the ground, emitting some heavy sounds. Antiblue switch on the light, illuminating the room and revealing Violet's actual appearance.
.
His now severed, blood gushing lower body was entirely made of ivory. His now unusable wings had spikes resembling lightning rod were protuding from it's bones. Violet's upper body was also made of ivory, except for his head, with his hooves being almost hammer shaped and his left cheek being having a opened wound exposing the inside of his mouth. Pulsing veins and artery were tangled across his mane and two of his teeth were fangs.
.
A very fitting image for a very screw up stallion like him.
.
Bitten fiercely by the pain, Violet tried to crawling away while struggling to ignore it, only for Antiblue to hold him with one hind hoof on him. He couldn't possibly use his hammer like hooves since they cannot reach her.
.
"If you are going to call the security, don't even bother." said Antiblue, looking down on him. "I had previously used a Silence Gem which prevent any noises to be heard by somepony outside it's radius, which is just like that of this entire storeroom. Nopony will hear you scream."
.
"You're the one who released that filly!"
.
Antiblue pressed her hind hoof against his back, making him whine in pain.
.
"That was a illusion that i was piloting, you moron." she said, gesturing to the shattered white gem nearby his head.
.
"What!?"
.
"You better not test my patience. Besides, you have almost lost all of your blood and yet you are still alive. I presume that these blood vessels on your mane are your vital backup."
.
The mare moved her still revving chainsaw nearby his blood vessel filled mane. Violet could feel his blood pressure rising and his senses go nuts by the fear.
.
"What is the need of this factory in the first place?" asked Antiblue.
.
Violet moaned in pain as he was struggling to bear it while trying to remain calm despite Antiblue's intimidating action. He mustered a little bit of his strenght and began.
.
"The Raimbow Sanctuary is a facility designed to follow two functions: The first is the gathering of suitable corpses and remains for the next recruits or, in some cases, slaves who are forced to work for us if they are not turning against us. And the second one is the fabrication of our new type of Spectra. They need living ponies to extract the Spectra from them. To doing thing, we builded these machines, the Pegasus Converter. These failures were putted inside these machines, and ripped apart before having their remains throwed into the opening."
.
"What Spectra? And why this disgusting way to fabricate these rainbows? Weren't the ones from Cloudsdale even enough?"
.
"Eheh... The rainbows were a mere trick to smuggle this Spectra, that acted also as a powerful drug."
.
"Drug?"
.
"The Spectra that was filtrated outside the facility in the form of a rainbow and then poured as drops of water, occasionaly raining over Cloudsdale."
.
"Huh?... Wait, are telling me-"
.
"Yes, this factory is floating above the city itself. The ponies who were exposed to those rains became vulnerable to every suggestions. We are almost arrived to the point to brainwash the whole Cloudsdale into a mentally ill hierarchy consisting sorely into perfect pegasi. The weak ones will be purged of course. The brainwash however will worn off if the rain doesn't happen for a certain amount of time. But this drug works differently depending of the type of pony. The unicorns will find themselves unable to use magic for a while, the earth ponies will be at least afflicted by a strong sense of nausea. I don't know the effect that it can have on other creatures, but i know for sure that it does nothing to these who became already a dangerous creature like me. Necro Meele will soon make use of it in a very efficient manner."
.
"Dangerous creature my ass. What exactly do you mean with make use of it?"
.
"Necro Meele is a very skilled Necro-alchemist. If the drug is instilled inside the corpse before the process, along with a bit of Artemis Spore, that will grant to the resurrected one incredible regenerative powers like no other. Is a improved creation process in comparison to the prototype in which the Spectra wasn't involved."
.
"What prototype?"
.
"Tysiphone Unit. A Enhanced Wraith, powerful enough, that Necro Meele considered it as her second in command. But then it turned against us. She was undermining our plans plans right under our nose-Ugh!"
.
Violet moaned as Antiblue pressed her hind hoof on him one more time.
.
"You are taking enough joy to do this job, isn't it, you damn sadist?" said calmly Antiblue.
.
"Is for the fact that we are treating these dirt excuses of pegasi as trash? You should consider that even failures can have some purposes. No matter how bloody, cruel or insane. That they became Spectra or Enhanced Wraith through a series of pain, agony and suffering isn't important. We are forced to live here because of the our self imposed isolation. If one of us putted his hoof out of the factory, that one will be immidiately hunt down and killed."
.
"So Necro Meele wasn't trusting you from the very start."
.
"I don't care. Even before my rebirth, i was always amazed by the color of the rainbows. Being able to create with my own hooves is a real satisfaction, even if is made with the blood of our prisoners. The pleasure to know the secret of that magic. I know they are not real rainbow, but i prefered that they are since i can create them from the death."
.
"Bullshit."
.
"What's bullshit, you insipid earth pony delinquent? Even if my dream is a very demented one, i'll have no regrets... and no restraints at all either. Seriously, that's just fun. Ehehe. Not that i really interested in Necro Melee's damn army."
.
"You are too much helpful. Why are y-"
.
Her words were stuck as she suddenly realized something. She then pulled away her hind hoof from him and revved up her chainsaw so more, much to Violet's added fright.
.
"What are you trying to do?" asked irritated Antiblue.
.
Violet calmed down a little and laughed a little bit. He wasn't even bothering to fight back since he can't stand up.
.
"You stupid earth pony. I may be a failure of a living corpse, but i'm not stupid. Inside my coat, i have a magical health detector that send a automatic alarm to the security members just in case i'm fallen in a grave danger, leading them to my position. Is not that you can keep this informations if you are going to die. You asked for it. You will be caught before you will have the time to escape!"
.
"Let see about that." said Antiblue before she immediately lifted her chainsaw and slammed violently slammed on his head, cutting it along with his blood vessel filled mane, making it's blood spurting from every part of his head.
.
Antiblue then pulled out her weapon from his splitted up head and pressed a hidden button to one of the secret buttons, making the blades stop rotating. She grabbed immediately the opal inside the one of the bag's pockets and turned invisible once more just one second before a group of tazzer armed pegasi busted the door and stormed into the store room.
.
The suited ponies were shocked and horrified to discover their superior's butchered body. Antiblue slowly walked to the door on her two legs and went away without doing a sound.
.
Antiblue arrived to a floor where the engine room is located, according to the map.
.
She found herself in a bifurcation with a corridor in front of her and a way on her left that leads to a scaffolding. The mare walked toward the latter direction and stopped to take a look when she got struck by a very alienating scenario.
.
In the bottom of the scaffolding there are two pegasi, with one of them being, much to the delinquent's shock, Rainbow Dash who was supposed to be dead, now walking around and wearing a very black coat with her hooves being covered in blood.
.
"What the hell?" said Antiblue quietly. "That Necro Meele managed to retrieve Rainbow Dash's body and resurrect her as well? As a Enhanced Wraith is a real menace, i had to kill her... but how? How i can deal with somepony who is so fast and capable in mid air fights? If i carelessly engage a fight with her, i'll end up slammed down and then being caught or killed. I don't even know her appearance as the abomination that she is now. I had to find another way."
.
Antiblue doesn't make any move and remained to see what are they doing. They weren't even watching her and doesn't seemed to feel being watched by her. She was observing the rainbow maned pony. Something caught her attention. She noticed a strange trail of rainbow energy coming from every part of the roof being sucked into her hooves. There's something going on with her.
.
"What!?" yelled angered Raimbow Dash. "Are you telling me that somepony is walking around the factory and is brutally killing our employees at the same way as with Violet!?"
.
"I'm afraid so. Violet's hidden alarm was activated but when we had arrived in the storeroom, it was too late for him. And the perpetrator of these murders is now way to be found." said the male pegasus in front of her.
.
"Idiot!" said Dashie while grabbing the pegasus for the coat's collar. "We HAVE to eliminate the culprit. That pony should not leave this place alive. Find her and kill her, no matter the cost."
.
"What are you going to do with Violet's body?"
.
"I'm disappointed that you had forgot that even the worthless ones has their purpose, including the dead ones. Are you expecting me to feel sorry for a moron that has been easily killed? Now go and gather a squad efficient enough to stop her. You better give me some results or you are going to be useful in the most painful way possible. Got it?"
.
"Understood."
.
Rainbow Dash released her grip on the pegasus' collar. She briefly looked at him with a very disgusted look. They flapped their own wings and flew away from the scaffolding, going to their separate ways.
.
Upon hearing their conversation, Antiblue decided to not waste anymore time and trotted toward the corridor. As goes through this path, passing through the security ponies of the facility unnoticed due to her invisibility, she could glimpse some Spectra measuring machine appearing in some part of the walls. But she hasn't the time for that since she had to avoid the security who was trying to hunt her down.
.
After short time, she finally arrived in front of the door leading to the machinery room. Inside the room there are two coated pegasi in front of a series of monitors and metallic consoles. Probably this room was also a additional surveilance room.
.
Antiblue slowly entered the room and slowly closed the door behind her before throwing polydevourer filled vials at them. She then reappeared, charging toward the pegasi and tearing them up in one swing before they could even activate the alarm since they were in the range of her chainsaw.
.
One of them has half of his head severed and the other has his upper body separated from the rest. One upper body and half of a head were flying across the room before abruptly falling to the floor as blood was erupting from their severed parts, staining the walls of the room in red as their remaining severed parts collapsed.
.
Both of them had their undead appearance exposed, but she hasn't the time to check them, so she gave them a quick look to their conditions. One of the two pegasi has a drill protuding from his chest and was moaning in pain, screaming in a attempt to call the security as his blood was gushing out of his veins. However his cry was nullified by the silencing gem the mare was transporting.
.
His own colleague, on other hooves, was dead due to having his brainwash detached away from the rest of his head by that slice. The mare walked to the half undead pegasus and putted her revving chainsaw in front of his face just to show him the situation in which he's in, much to his fright for another incoming pain.
.
"Hey. I'm talking to you." said Antiblue. "Do you have some kind of health alarm on your coat?"
.
"W-what-No! Only our superiors have one." said scared the pegasus."
.
"Listen to me, asshole. I know about the reason for this factory to exist and it's connection to Necro Meele. Is that cyan pegeasus Rainbow Dash?... Or maybe is just a imposter."
.
"N-no Imposter is no accurate. That being is supposed to be a avatar for our real boss. We considerate that a Rainbow Puppet."
.
"A puppet ruler you say, huh?"
.
"Is a type of puppet being able to resemble anypony perfectly. The rainbow energy that was being sucked in her hooves weren't for show. That energy was emanated from our magical engine that acted as a vital support to it. This Rainbow Dash needed this energy in order to sustain herself."
.
"Where is your boss?"
.
"Is on the upper floors on the other side of the facility, but is heavily armed. You cannot even enter without authorization."
.
"I'm making my own opening, so you should not worry about it."
.
"Guh..."
.
"Where is the engine? You better tell me since you are not able to fight back."
.
"I-in the right console! Is in the secret panel"
.
Antiblue lifted her chainsaw and stabbed it into his head, splitting him in two and pouring his blood mixed with a residue of gray matter into the floor.
.
She then pulled it out of him before turning it off and took a look to the console.
.
There are so much buttons that she doesn't bother to test. But then a subtle detail caught her attention. There are some linear tiny fissures forming a square, probably that served as a cover.
.
Antiblue opened the metallic square, revealing a series of buttons, which one of them being a circular purple one with a alchemic symbol on it.
.
"The real liquidation starts now."
.
The violet mare leaved the room and became invisible once more.
.
"Phase One: Remove the puppet queen from the chessboard."
.
Rainbow Dash was walking on a scaffolding as the stream of rainbow energy continued to flow inside her hooves, inspecting the machines and the various prisoners beneath her. Anything was in perfect order for her... if order means that the torturing executions and the Spectra generating machines were functioning without interference.
.
Two suited pegasi, a stallion and a mare, walked toward her with a very worried face. Their investigations aren't going very well.
.
"Hey, boss. I think-" tried to the male pegasus before being harshly interrupted by Rainbow Dash.
.
"Let me guess. They are not going very well?" said without emphaty Rainbow Dash.
.
"Worst. Two of our machine operators were killed off as well." said the female one.
.
"Why are you still there!? Did you had called the security!?"
.
"Is already alerted. They were patrolling the whole facility but without any results."
.
The rainbow maned pegasus violently punched in rage the female pegasus's face.
.
"Are you just as useless and moronic as Violet!?"
.
The female pegasus was little bit scared by Rainbow Dash's violent behavior. As she tried to say something, Rainbow Dash was preparing to leash her once more. But then something struck her mind. Rainbow Dash's furious face became instantly dumbfounded, and then became a hollow one. Her fierce crimson eyes became lifeless.
.
The two pegasi started were confused at first from this fast expresion shift, but then they became overhelmed with panic as they realized a very important detail: The stream of rainbow energy stopped flowing into the hooves of their boss and disappeared from their sight.
.
Without that, "Rainbow Dash" ceased to live. Her skin and rainbow mane became colore in a very pietrified gray. Her body collapsed to the floor and shattered into a mix of blood and grey ashes
.
With their puppet boss gone like that, the panic of the two suited pegasi had intensified. Their brains were having a hard time to process that. They didn't even do what to do.
.
"W-w-w... WHAAAAAAAT!?" screamed incredulous the male pegasus.
.
"S-she is... Her avatar is broken!" said the female one.
.
"That is not a very good news!"
.
"What we should do!?"
.
"Calm! Calm down!... *pant* Maybe Gale Geosphere know what to do."
.
"Are you joking!? He's too busy to update the list of the prisoners!"
.
As the pegasi continued to talk about what to do without the puppet Rainbow Dash, Antiblue approached them from behind and instantly butchered them with her chainsaw, silencing and replacing their words with sounds of the revving sharp blades tearing them apart. Due to Silence Gem being active, nopony present in the other floors, not even the distressful and mistreated prisoners could not hear the screams of their tormentors.
.
Their bodies were horribly mangled. The female pegasus died due to her head being shredded into pieces, scattered among her own bloody pool. The male one was just decapitated.
.
Antiblue noticed his severed head looking at her in fear. He was still still alive. According to her reasoning, there are some Enhanced Wraith who can continue to live even after their heads are severed. She leaned toward the male pegasus' head, looking in his eye as he was powerless, questioning about her intentions. He darted his eyes toward his shredded body and then back to the violet mare. He closed his eyes, waiting for her to kill her. But then she started to talk.
.
"You are going to help me," Antiblue said. "That you want of not."
.
"Eh!?" muttered the head.
.
"Phase Two: polluting the fire sprinklers' water"
.
Antiblue opened the door and entered in the waterworks room. The are a series of large stell pipe connected to a water purifier, ignoring the fact that there are also the seven colored Spectra filled tubes as well. Having read some books regarding various architectonic and plant structures in the past, Antiblue knows where to look. She approached the hatch on one of the a tube that leads to a watershed were the water was then distributed into the fire sprinkles circuit.
.
Antiblue pulled out the Enhanced Polydevourer filled bottle, open it and poured some of it in the hatch, mixing it with the water, so she wouldn't be obligated to waste her last vial or the rest of the bottle in a pointless attempt to unmask the wraiths one by one. She then closed the bottle and putted the it back into the bag before walking away from the room.
.
"Phase Three: Gathering the coachroaches in their trap."
.
Leaf Shocker was in front of a machinery similar to the Pegasus Converter, being a medium sized version of the original. She waited for somepony. She could hear from the corridor far behind her the screams of somepony who tried to escape but was finally caught.
.
Leaf lifted her head toward the ceiling and noticed a broken fire sprikle, which makes her instantly angry. She doesn't tollerate any mistake. The pegasus turned toward the three pegasi in her right.
.
"Can you please call some engineer or a skilled slave to solve this problem!?" she said furiously. "And you are supposed to be competent!?"
.
"We will do it right away-Ugh!"
.
One of them was grabbed by Leaf, who pulled out a knife and pointed toward his face.
.
"Do it very fast or suffer, bleeding and screaming. "
.
Leaf released her grasp and glanced at the three ponies as they were trotting away in another one in fear, searching for some engineers since their live were literally depends on it. Her attention was then caught by a scream piercing the silence.
.
"Don't even think to keep me here forever! Let me go!"
.
Two pegasi entered the room while dragging a rebellious pegasus filly who struggled to set herself free from their grip. Leaf gleefully observed the scene as his subordinates forcefully putted the filly inside the machine and chained her up. The filly was cleary frightened, but mostly confused.
.
"Why are doing this to me!? Is because i failed the test!?"
.
His tormentors doesn't respond. Not even empathy was shown by them.
.
"My mother will be worried, she is waiting for me at home!"
.
The two pegasi leaved the metallic room, leaving to Leaf the depraved pleasure to deal with the pegasus.
.
"So you thought that you could escape this factory, eh?" said Leaf.
.
"I had to go. You had no right to isolate me there." retorted hesitant the filly.
.
"Yea, yea, i get it... No. You can't. As you can see," Leaf then pointed her knife at the filly, scaring her even more, as the female pegasus tried to make her fear for her life. "YOU CAN'T!"
.
The filly started to whimper a little while Leaf glared at her with her contained fury.
.
"P-please, don't kill me. I... i have to help my mother with... the work... i promised..." said the filly.
.
"Your mother will not wait for a failure like you. And even if she is waiting for you..." Leaf smirked a little while suspending her sentence before let it fade away from her face. "I don't care. What i care now is just to teach to some impudent fillies like you, who doesn't respect my authority, a really special lesson worth a entire life You see? I'm used to be a failure like you. Always looked down by my fellow pegasi because i wasn't at their level. But now i have the opportuniy to show who are the real inferior ones. I don't care what you want."
.
"You can't do this... Please, don't do it."
.
"You wanna bet?"
.
Leaf approached the machine's consoles and pressed some buttons. With that, the chains pulled tight and lifted the filly all the way up to the gears. The chains grew taut, and stretched each of her limbs straight up and down, as they were going to twist her body.
.
But just when Leaf was going to enjoy that, the machine suddenly shut down, much to her aggravated anger.
.
"Who does that!" screamed Leaf. "I want a answer!
.
The filly gave a sigh of relief, but she wasn't certainly safe since Leaf can still hurt her.
.
Leaf was on the verge to slam her hooves on the machines to make it work, but was then interrupted by a voice coming from the hidden speakers.
.
"Attention, everypony! A unidentified intruder has infiltrated the facility and killed off some of our employees. Even Violet and Rainbow Dash are dead! It's not a joke! Both of them are killed for real! This murder has also implanted a powerful magical bomb in the depth of the facility, and is going to destroy the entire Raimbow Sanctuary if not defused immediately! However, the good news is that the murdered is injured and trapped inside the announcement room! Is required the presence for both all the employees, the superiors and the security too came there. Plus, for security reasons all the machinery will be shut down! I repeat! Is required the presence for both all the employees, the superiors and the security too came there. Plus, for security reasons all the machinery will be shut down!"
.
After that, all the employes and the security pegasi rushed through the corridors and halls of the facility to reach their meeting point, leaving their prisoners behind. The whole flock were having a hard time to get through the entrance of the announcement room. After a while, all of these ponies managed to enter the room. They were looking around, wondering what the security reasons could be or even where is the culprit.
.
A metallic sound could be heard from all the entrances of the announcement room. The steel doors were quickly closing, blocking their escape. Each one of them dashed toward the door, but it was too for the panic and fearing for their lives, the pegasi relentlessly slammed their hooves against the doors in vain. Their bodies were stacking one above the other, desperate and blinded by the persisting though to get out of there.
.
The fire sprinkles above them started to spray the polydevourer corrected water on the pegasi, covering all of their bodies.
.
Their screaming pleads to get out of the blocked room were turned into agonizing rising geyser of ungodly roars and screams of pain. A massive mist of vapor engulfed the room as their bodies started to transforming into their monstrous ones. The majority of these creature was too blinded and devoured by the burning pain to mind their actual appearances.
.
The whole spectacle of the trapped pegasi was watched by Antiblue, standing on her two legs in front of the monitors in the machinery room, holding the still living head of one of the two butchered pegasi in her hoof.
.
She dropped the head to the floor and slammed her currently inactive chainsaw against it, reducing it into a mush.
.
The violet mare turned her attention back to the monitors and checked if all the areas of the facility were completely emptied, leaving only the prisoners. Additionally, the sprinkles were activated, so they are completely exposed as the wraiths that they are now.
.
All seemed that all of them are fallen in the trap. All except the other two supervisors: Gale Geosphere and Leaf Shocker. She checked the monitors again without find Gale, but she managed to find Leaf, who was fumbling with the cables of the inactive Pegasus Converter, trying to make it work in front of a frightened filly, who was chained in the machine.
.
"Not today, bastards. I'm going to take care of you." said a irritated Antiblue-
.
Antiblue trotted away from the room and rushed through the floors of the facility to reach her destination.
.
She arrived into a hall full of machinery and found twenty nine exposed pegasi Enhanced Wraiths, waiting for her and blocking her path.
.
Antiblue, having predicted this coming, threw a platinum amulet at them. The object bursted into a sphere made of plasma that struck and shocked all of the undead pegasi. As the sphere dissipated, they became overwhelmed by hysteria as they found themselves unable to move their wings.
.
"I-i.. I can't feel my wings!"
.
"We are literaly grounded!"
.
"WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE TO US!?"
.
Antiblue glared at them with very intimidating eyes as pulled the starting cord of her chainsaw before taking it's handle with her teeth. The pegasi wraiths immediately rushed toward her with all their fury. Antiblue charged toward them with the chainsaw pointed toward them.
.
As the monstrous pegasi were almost reaching her, Antiblue leaped toward them while delivering a circular spinning slice that bloodily decimates most of them and does a quick high jump to avoid some of them who tried to tackle her while releasing the chainsaw's handle by the grasp of her teeth only to catching it with her hoof before slamming down her chainsaw to the ground in a slashing drop, splitting in two other three pegasi who were in it's trajectory.
.
Only eleven of them remained, and were charging toward her: some of them tried to to slash her with their implanted weapons while the others tried to devour her.
.
Antiblue slashes four of them and severed one pegasus' hoof with a curved sword implanted into it just to kick it to trowing it into another undead pegasus', piercing his head along with his brain.
.
She then pierced the said amputated pegasus, lifted his constantly and painfully mangled body, and delivered a horizontal swing that killed other four of them before killing a fifth one with a overhead slash while violently slamming the trapped mutilated foe to the ground.
.
Antiblue finishes off the remaining two undead pegasi who tried to attack her from behind with one swing when she was suddenly met by two flying security pegasi wraiths who were just arrived into the scene, much to her annoyance.
.
They flew toward her and tried to stun her with the tazzers. She made a quick long dash toward them that allowed her to avoid herself from getting shocked and performed a swing that shredded one of the pegasi's head and splitted the other one's body in half. As Antiblue landed on the floor, she quickly charged toward the remaining pony's upper body and teared him apart before he could use the tazzer once more.
.
The fight seemed to be over until Antiblue heared something piercing the air from the ceiling. She lifted her head and found her eyes being met by the sight of multiple silver feathers being covered in lightnings, falling toward her.
.
"Shit!" she said before doing a quick long jump in backward as lightnings struck various parts of the hall at the same moment the feathers touched the floor.
.
After her landing, Antiblue looked up and saw Gale Geosphere in his undead form. He was flapping his wings, now with the feathers made of silver. Electricity was came out from the holes in his wing's joints and half of his face has his muscle tissues and bones being exposed.
.
"Don't even think to take me down! You're only a impudent mare, and this factory will not crumble because of you! THIS ENDS NOW!" said arrogantly Gale.
.
Gale rushed in flying toward her while shooting other electrified silver feathers toward her. Antiblue could not reach Gale since he was flying in higher height, so there only one thing that she can do. She rolled away from his electric attacks and reached a wall. She leaped toward the wall and jumped off from it, literally hurling herself in mid air toward the rushing Gale with her chainsaw in her hooves. At the point, Gale has already unleashed a wave of electric feathers too soon, missing her. That was his last mistake.
.
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?" screamed shocked Gale.
.
"THAT IS YOUR FAIL!" roared Antiblue.
.
Before Gale could change his flight direction, Antiblue reached him and sliced him in two in mid air with a vertical slash. Antiblue landed unharmed to the floor sligthly before Gale's corpse. Some of his organs and his blood were raining in the hall.
.
The violet mare walked away and resumed her path toward Leaf, leaving the hall completely infested by the pegasi wraith's corpses and severed limbs, accompanied by the a great amount of blood staining both the devastated floor and the walls.
.
Leaf continued to flaunt with the cables of the still inactive Pegasus Converter. She seemed to be almost euphoric and enrage at the same time, which means that she almost managed to reactivate it. The chained filly could feel the panic kick in both her heart and her mind at the though that the miracle was just a illusion.
.
"Is good for you to fear the death." said crazed Leaf. The value of your life should teach you the price of both your failure and the impudence to even hope to get out of here unpunished. Let me show you why i'm called Leaf Shocker."
.
"T-try to understand. I cannot afford to die here. Don't do it." begged the filly
.
"Yeah, you better beg... in the beginning of your death!"
.
Leaf was going to connect the last cable, only to be interrupted by a flying polydevourer filled glass vial shattering against her and covering her body with the liquid. Leaf collapsed to the ground in pain, moaning and howling from the pain caused by the liquid coming in contact with her filly watched in horror the female pegasus' transformation happening in front of her eyes.
.
Multiple iron spikes were protuding from Leaf's wings and blades were coming out from her hooves. Being enraged by both the filly being still alive and the sharp pain invading her body, Leaf struggled to flap her wings and tried hovering in mid air.
.
Leaf mustered all of her strenght to adjust her balance and lift her head toward the filly, revelaing half of her face having her muscle tissues being exposed.
.
The filly's mind became overtaken by complete fear due to Leaf's already horrible appearance look was made even worst by her psychotic raging expression. She closed her eyes to protect her mind from the gruesome scene that was happening in front of her, trying to not cry.
.
Leaf wanted to conclude the execution, but now she has other preoccupations, like the culprit that tried to attack her and revealed her appearance as a wraith.
.
"What the hell do you think ARE YOU DOING!?"
.
Leaf turned around, trying to deliver a slash to the responsible only to be met by Antiblue cut her in two in a fast slice. Blood spurted from her sliced parts. The two body parts of the sadistic pegasus were falling on the ground along with some of her insides coming out of her upper body.
.
Not understanding what is going on, the filly slowely opened her eyes and looked at the scene in front of her. She gasped in horror to see her tormentor being reduced in a very horrible condition.
.
Her eyes then darted on Antiblue standing in front of Leaf's defenseless and agonizing upper body and wielding her chainsaw as she seemed already prepared to deliver her retribution. The filly was shocked to see this brutal kind of miracle. She was praying for a benevolent angel to help her, but wasn't expecting this angel of death.
.
Being reduced nothing more than having only her upper body, Leaf was howling in pure agony, left with nothing more than her half torso, one hoof, and her two wings. But her body was pointed upwards, so she cannot even fly.
.
The filly then looked on the other side to protect her innocent mind.
.
"I't hurts! You won't get away with that! YOU MURDER!" screamed furious Leaf,
.
"I don't think you are in condition to talk like that." retorted annoyed Antiblue. "You are the real junk one right now. You wanted to kill that filly just because she wanted to escape this hellhole... You are also one of the supervisors of this place, so i have to take you down. "
.
Leaf laughed nervously, trying to act all superior despite having the revving chainsaw pointed in front of her face.
.
"You cannot win!" she said. "Your corpse will belong to this place!"
.
"Oh... And tell me. Why do you think i came here in the first place?"
.
"What?... Are you seriously-"
.
"Exactly. Your boss is the next. Now join your colleagues into the oblivion."
.
The violet mare slammed her chainsaw against Leaf's head, grinding and crushing it without sympathy for her. After having killed off the pegasus, Antiblue turned off her chainsaw and put it to the ground. She then connected the last cable of the Pegasus Converter and reactivate it only to press some buttons to interrupt the process. She controlled the machine to put the chained filly being near to the floor and pressed one last button. The chains untwisted and the shackles opened, dropping the filly without damaging her.
.
Antiblue turned her head toward the filly, who recoiled in fear to see her face and her weapon. The mare could understand why. She can be direct, cold, unfriendly and sometimes even sullen, but not insensitive in front of feelings of others. The filly as a valid reason to be afraid of her, and not just because of the announcement she set up as a bait to lure her enemies in her trap marked her as a mass murderer. What the violet mare has done to her tormentor and her bloodstained chainsaw were a real tangible proof of this infamous identity, according to her point of view.
.
Antiblue put herself in four legged position and walked toward the filly, who remained paralyzed in fear, questioning about what she intended to do with her. What the mare can do was talking to her calmly. She wasn't expecting the filly to trust her.
.
"What are you waiting for? Just go to the prisons in the lower floor and wait my instructions. I will open all the doors of the facility from the machinery room." said Antiblue.
.
"S-so you are the one that my captors were looking for... right?" said confused the filly.
.
"You can think whatever you want. I have nothing to do with you."
.
"She is... you killed her."
.
"That moron over there was giving on my nerves, so of course i had eliminate her. I don't expect you to understand that."
.
"I'm not sure if you came to save me... You are scaring me ... How can i even trust you?"
.
"Look, wasn't being liberated even enough? You are free now. Don't even bother to remain here."
.
"R-really? I-i... I'm so confused. I don't know what say-"
.
"You better go before some reinforcement of the last minute shows uo."
.
"O-o.. Ok."
.
The filly reluctantly rose up and trotted away toward the corridor on her left, following the directions given by Antiblue.
.
The violet mare took her chainsaw with her teeth and turned around before walking away from the room.
.
"Let's prepare the evacuation."
.
Antiblue returned to the machinery room and approached the implanted microphone on one of the consoles. She looked in one of the monitors, one of them showing Ruby Honey and Marine Sapphire being still alive and legitimately distressed.
.
She then turned her glance toward another monitor showing the filly being in front one of cells of the prison, waiting for her to maintain her words. The mare pressed some buttons, resulting all the doors of the facility to open except these of the room were the lured Enhanced Wraiths were still trapped. After that, she started to talk to the microphone.
.
"Can i get your attention? If you don't want to believe this, suit yourself. I took care of all of these dumbasses. You are all free to live this hellhole in this instant. Just don't escape from the main entrance. You had to took the emergency exits to get out of her alive. These doors are now open. You had to go now. They will call any enforcement by a moment or another."
.
Antiblue paused, seeing a young pegasus coming out of the cell and talking to the filly, seemingly knowing each others.
.
"You, the one in front of the filly. You have to listen."
.
The stallion in the monitor turned his attention to eye of the camera.
.
"That filly cannot get out of here all alone. You had to accompany her."
.
The pegasus nodded and convinced the filly to follow him.
.
All of the ponies, which the majority were all pegasi, were rushing en masse toward their escape route, filling almost all the halls of the factory.
.
"Time to finish the job."
Antiblue trotted away from the room and dashed toward one of the floors connected to the upper ones, where she intended to meet the boss and deliver her execution.
.
The violet mare went up the stairs in the opposite side of the facility and arrived to the upper floors, four legged and with her chainsaw putted back in the bag. Antiblue would use some of her amulets, just to not waste her time to put out the chainsaw and advancing through any eventual enemy. However, much to her confusion, the corridor in front of her wasn't guarded at all. Of course she suspected some trap. But the most strangest fact was the absence of cameras. There's no surveillance at all. What kind of joke was that?
.
Antiblue walked through the corridor until she noticed a archive room on her right.
.
She entered the room, finding nothing but multiple drawers and a desk with some documents on it. She approached the desk and took a look to the documents, noticing what seemed to be a letter, written a mouth ago.
.
Antiblue started to read it and found some disquieting details.
.
"To the workers of the Rainbow Sanctuary.
I'm sure that you can understand my reason to do so. Is kind of disturbing, but has to be done. Since we have to create some undead worker ponies who mustn't be bound by the curse of the cutie marks, i need every help necessary to accomplish that. I have to make a test in order to improve the future depopulation center that is going to be build to the Moon. Which is why i requested the construction of this factory. What you had to do is to sacrifice the life of anypony in order to use their remains to create more collaborative ones. Necro Meele will give you the instructions. Additionally, i request you to use some of their remains to create your rainbows as your cover and as you boss' new drug for her Necro-alchemy as well. She need it, and most of all, she is asking you to use your type of rainbows to correct Cloudsdale inhabitant's mentality. I'm counting on your force of will. Cruel or not.
.
With the trust that you deserve.
Princess Celestia."
.
The mare just wanted to throw up, mentally. The caligraphy is exactly that of the Sun Princess. But she wasn't expecting her to go this low.
.
"Depopulation center on the Moon..." said disgusted Antiblue. "So Celestia is really out of her mind, just like in the vision. But i didn't know that the Princess became this nutjob."
.
She putted the letter back to the desk and gaze toward the other documents with some images on them. Her images was on one of the documents as well. It was clear that these are all files. Necro Meele's future targets. Antiblue wasn't the only one. There are other five earth ponies involved in this insanity. She tooked a look to the first four names: Psycho Slash, Ark Devil, Ego Nephilim and Grave Empress.
.
She took a look to the last one with a little piece of curiosity. Upon lookin at it, she started to remember what the three supervisors said about that.
.
"Subject number three.
.
Name: Tysiphoone Unit.
Real Name: Azalea Prima.
.
Note: The subject became a double edged sword and turned against us. This menace must be eliminate immidiately.
.
Risk Rate: S+"
.
There was a image in the document. A image of Azalea Prima of when she was still alive. That bothered her this hard, because she doesn't even know what her current appearance are now. Chrome previously mentioned that the Enhanced Wraiths had their personality eclipsed and are bounded to Necro Meele's will, but this one must be a literal exception. If that undead pony rebelled against his master, that will probably means that she managed to retain her free will and original personality, even if Antiblue doesn't know how. Antiblue was legitimate surprised by this factor.
.
"So this is the traitor they were talking about..." said Antiblue.
.
Upon finishing to read all of the files, she gave one last look to the desk only to find a strange letter. She tooked a look at it, just because this one depicted something curious.
.
"Assistance Required.
.
The brainwashed citzens need their real truth about their pegasus pride putted into a new light. But the rainbows created by us will not be enough. We need a pony so skilled with the music that is also capable to conduct some music therapy experiments. However that one tried to escape and got accidentally killed. Very convenient since i need her to became a Enhanced Wraith. After all, she wasn't very cooperative when she was still alive. Deliver this message to Celestia. I need Necro Meele to pay a visit here and retrieve her corpse in order to follow up with the plane, now.
.
Rainbow Sanctuary's anonymous executive."
.
Antiblue took the letter and went out of the archive room, going straight to the boss' office.
.
"What kind of screw up letter was that?"
.
Since the hall was so silent, the sound of her hooves clapping against the ground were the only thing that was echoing through every section of the upper floors.
.
After short time, Antiblue arrived in front of the boss' office. But that wasn't a normal one. The entrance was surprisingly too huge for a normal one. The room was strangely big and, having pnly a few drawers, a desk and a balcony in the bottom that was facing toward the sky, completely covered in black clouds with the recurring occasional lightnings ravaging their darkness and illuminating . There's nopony in the room, and, like the rest of the upper floors, is unguarded too.
.
Antiblue walked toward the desk and scanned the place. Antiblue quickly noticed a lifeless pony laying on the ground. As she approached it, she instantly recognized the dead pony for what it is.
.
It was a very noticed and curious figure in Ponyville. A pony skilled with musical composition, and was wearing the usual headphones. Antiblue heard about her through some rumors during her time in jail. It wasn't resurrected as a Enhanced Wraith yet. The face was a mask of fear and pain, and her eyes were opened, as the face tried to indicate that it tried to escape in vain.
.
"Scratch Vinyl?" said Antiblue, surprised to see her body her.
.
Antiblue examined the corpse until a sudden metallic crawling noises caught her attention.
.
The violet mare turned toward the entrance.
.
She was met by Whirlwind Gust, the undead remodelled, horrid pegasus being in front of her and revealing her horrendous appearance while looking at Antiblue with her completely red eyes, smiling in very gleeful and demonic manner at her as she was towering on her. Antiblue was a little surprised, but not impressed.
.
"Found you... Antiblue..." said playfully Gust.
.
"Ah. You're Whirlwind Gust. The Rainbow Dash wannabe." said Antiblue. causing Gust to flinch in shocked embarrassment and lowering her head and arm in a mortified way, momentary diminishing her intimidating figure.
.
"Antiblue, i can no longer be told of my thing that you will keep calling obsession... i had really enough of it." said Gust.
.
"So you are the pegasus who crashed into Ponyville and thereal boss behind this demented rainbow factory. Before the demolition, i'm going to get some answers from you. That you want tell me or not." said Antiblue.
.
"That is stupid of you. Do you really think that i would managing this factory just for some blood made rainbow? The reason why i was doing this was because somepony managed to eliminate my predecessor. I don't know who it is... but who cares. You see? I cannot compete with Rainbow Dash because of her dead, but at least i would compesate for that by using our Spectra's influence to obbligate Cloudsdale inhabitants to forget her. Nothing personal, but her age is finally over."
.
"You are stupidly insane... and not making any sense as well."
.
"After all, it's a pain to be second to the fastest that i always wanted to surpass, ain't i. I wanted to have a real imposing speed, you know?"
.
The horrid pegasus violently flapped her wings and hovered in air.
.
"But now, thanks to Necro Meele, i am more tham satisfied since i have the comfort to have a even more greater speed than the rainbow maned pegasus herself." continued Gust
.
The rythm of Gust's wing flapping increased as she immidiatelly flew toward her at very faster speed as she continued to talk.
.
"EVEN IF I AM NO LONGER A NORMAL PEGASUS!"
.
"The hell!?"
.
In the same instant she formulated her question, Antiblue instinctively made a high jump while holding her weapon right before Gust's right metal wing could reach her. Her sight registered the trajectory of Gust's dashing attack as if it happened in slow motion. In the Antiblue instant she heard the piercing sound emitted by her dash, Gust literally flew in her innatural velocity from the entrance of her office and reached the thunderstorm infested black clouds before going through them in one literal second. Not even Rainbow Dash was capable to reach such monstrous speed.
.
Antiblue landed to the floor and turned her glance toward the flying menace with a very nervous expression before pulling her chainsaw's cord.
.
If Antiblue didn't managed to dodge her metalling wing with that right timing, her body would have been cutted, leading her to a bleeding death. The mare, just for once, blessed her innate dexterity and perception for saving her life.
.
"Judging by the way she dashed toward me, her metal wings must be some kind of very scary blades. Plus, her speed is ridiculously increased by that power reactor implanted in her chest." said Antiblue in her head. "If i try to take her head on without the proper timing, i would likely be sliced, or in the worst case mutilated, with one dashing wing attack."
.
As the thunderstorm roared and flashes were illuminating both the sky and the balcony of the office once more, Gust electric energy spheres suddenly rained from the clouds, falling toward where Antiblue is now.
.
"Oh, no. You don't!" said Antiblue as she leaped away from their trajectory.
.
As the energy balls came in contact with the ground, these bursted, creating various pillars of destructive electric energy that destroying anything in their path in a roaring electric wreckage before dissolving into nothingness, leaving the room and the balcony greatly devastated in their passage.
.
After she landed, The wind piercing sound roared again. Antiblue knew what it means. In the same instant the mare heard it, Gust was already diving toward her, pointing her steaming holed hooves toward her and trying to slice her with her metal wing. Antiblue performed a high one second before the wing was almost touching her while pointing her chainsaw toward the floor, resulting it to cut through the right wing's metal cover and sliced a portion of it's bone just when Gust was passing under her.
.
That blow was painful enough to make Gust scream in pain as she loosed her control and smashed through the wall before crashing to the floor violently. After her landing, Antiblue took her chainsaw with her teeth and returned in four legged position as Gust was screaming in rage, forcefully standing up while getting rid of rubles and instinctively flapping her wings violently in hysteria, pouring her blood gushing out of her wound.
.
The pegasus' head was bleeding as well, giving her already ferocious face a preview of her motivated bloodlust. The capability to destroy or damaging her wing and the desecration of her most wished speed were for her a atrocious crime that she will not forgive, so she intended to make the violet mare pay for what she did.
.
Antiblue trotted away from the room with her chainsaw pointed forward until Gust was already shooting energy spheres from her hooves toward her. The violet mare dodged the sphere, who bursted in electric pillars, devastating part of the floor, aggravating the undead pegasus' rage. Gust instantly mustered her strenght to flying despite the unbearable pain and flew toward Antiblue while displaying a face of euphoric psychotic fury, wanting nothing more than have satisfaction from the death of the mare.
.
Antiblue continued to gallop, chased down by a furious Whirlwind Gust, who was destroying the walls as she struggled to maintain her flying trajectory since the pain was testing her balance and resistance.
.
The damage that Antiblue inflicted to her wing has put a toll to her speed, greatly diminished by the damage. Gust was now slowed down, but still fast enough to almost reach Antiblue. Gust immidiately pointed her hooves toward Antiblue and shooted another wave of electric energy spheres, trying to hit the target.
.
Antiblue dodged while galloping all the spheres, that bursted in electric pillars, and arrived to the stairs. started to descent in the lower floors.
.
"WAIT UP, YOU COWARD!" screamed furiously Gust from behind her.
.
As Antiblue arrived to the floor she came before, Gust smashed through the ceiling and dived toward her while shooting the energy spheres. The violet mare avoided the destructive projectiles while continuing her run. All that destruction caused by them and the flying menace's blind rage gave Antiblue a idea.
.
Gust will make the demolition of the Rainbow Sanctuary much easier. Antiblue galloped on a scaffolding, trying to reach the other side as Gust continued to shoot, but that was made impossible when the creature decided to shoot where she would be, bursting and creating a hole in the metal floor, preventing the violet mare to escape.
.
Antiblue immediately jumped backwards as the pegasus freak was passing under her, released her chainsaw's handle and wielded it with her hooves in mid air before she clung to the monster's body by stabbing her chainsaw in her back through her stomach and hanging on it.
.
Gust screamed in utter pain as she painfully struggled to maintain her balance while flailing around to get ride of Antiblue. Her flying trajectory was made even more unstable by the atrocious suffering caused by Antiblue's chainsaw devouring her stomach and some pieces of her rib cage and spilling some of her blood from it. This pain also reignited that of her still bleeding severed wing.
.
Feeling her blood pressure going lower and her balance starting to loose, Gust intentionally changed her flight route and dived toward some various Pegasus Converters on the lowers in furious desperation in order to hurt her as well.
.
Knowing this type of reaction, Antiblue move around her chainsaw with all her strenght as way to deviate her trajectory, forcing Gust to change her direction by some degress, resulting some of the machinery, scafoulding and Spectra containers being sliced and destroyed by her huge sharpened metallic wings.
.
Various colors of Spectra covered most of the metal winged pegasus' upper body, mixing with her blood coming out of her wounds, leaving her lower body and Antiblue completely clean. Her fall's speed was increasing as her body slowly succumbs to the laws of gravity. Gust continued her uncontrollable dive, smashing through the Pegasus Converters and making them explode, much to her consternation and dismay. In a few seconds the whole grim and dark facility was set ablaze.
.
"Damn you, Antiblue! You make me destroy the entire factory!" screamed furiously Gust as her blood was coming out of her mouth.
.
"I know that!" replied Antiblue.
.
As the destructive fall continued, debrises, liquid Spectra and pieces of machinery were falling down to the bottom of the facility and various machines were exploding. until they had finally reached the very bottom of the facility, destroying other machineries and creating a cacophonic, raging roar of tremendous deafening noises and blazing deflagrations.
.
They finally reached the bottom of the factory. As Gust was going to crash, Antiblue pulled her chainsaw out of the undead pegasus' body
.
Antiblue pulled her chainsaw out of her enemy's body and jumped away from her, abruptly landing on the floor as Gust finally crashed against a wall.
.
The world around Antiblue was spinning and burning. She slowly stood up, trying to shrug off the sense of dizzyness caused by her landing. She felt something cold and metallic from behind her. She looked back and immidiately recognized recognized the machine. That was that wreteched original Pegasus Converter, meaning that she is in lowest floor of the factory. She was in the middle of two of the six metallic tubes attached to the vats.
.
The cold and chilling atmosphere that once engulfed the room was toned down and diminished by the hell fire coming from the corridor were they came for. Her chainsaw was nearby her hooves. Antiblue tooked her chainsaw with one hoof and putted herself in bipedal position when a sudden metallic sound echoed a little through the room. She turned her head toward the source and immediately found what was. It was in front of her... and still alive.
.
Gust slowly stood up as she pointed her holed hoof cannon at her. She raised her head toward her prey as she revealed her battered and messed up appearance. Her metal wings were wrecked, with the right one being half covered in blood. Her upper body, her now dripping wet mane and the left side of her face were colored with both the Spectra of all the colors mixed with her blood. Her stomach was opened by a wide opened wound created by the chainsaw, revealing her some piece of her ravaged organs and various flesh pieces as blood was gushing out of it and flowing on the front part of her metallic tail.
.
Gust was displaying a very sadistic face. Rage and satisfaction merged altogether. She approached Antiblue with a insane joviality, pointing her hoof toward her. Antiblue was, honest to herself, almost nervous as she was pretending being frightened. Gust will not let her escape. Not this time.
.
As Gust was going to shot her blow until Antiblue gestured to stop.
.
"Wait!" said Antiblue, trying to maintain her calm as she tried to grab something from one of pocket's of her bag.
.
"Huh!?"
.
"I've got it. It's fine for me die now. I gave up. But let me at least give you a prize before you're going to blast me up."
.
"... I just wanted you to pay for the damage you have done to my beautiful speed! I want your blood! Nothing less! What makes you think that i'm gonna accept your proposal!?"
.
Antiblue pulled out a golden disk with a red ruby shaped in the same form as Cloudsdale's emblem and holded it with one hoof, much to the undead pegasus' curiosity and confusion.
.
"As of such would it be alright for me to give you this as a homage to you. After all, i'm just a sore loser compared to you." said Antiblue.
.
"Wait, you are going to die. Give me a gift and trying to exploit my patriortism will lead you to nothing. Throw this garbage nearby my tail if you want. Even if you handn't pissed me off, the rules are still the same. NOT A SINGLE SOUL CAN GET THROUGH IN THIS FACILITY!" said Guts with a more aggressive tone.
.
"And you are the manager of this place. But there's one problem."
.
"WHAT IS IT!?"
.
Antiblue paused a little, preparing a surprise for the metal winged lunatic.
.
"You're fired." said Antiblue before throwing the adorned disk at the pegasus.
.
Gust tried to shot at the amulet, but it bursted into a blazing deflagration that destroyed her power core, making it burst into a huge explosion that was disintegrating most of her upper body. Antiblue was a few yards away from her when it happened, so she wasn't caught in the multiple explosions. Gust's flesh was eaten away from both the explosions and the flames engulfing her, and yet something unusual caught Antiblue attention as it was some kind of warning. She's not done yet.
.
Gust's half face, her currently skeletal hooves and some of her torso now revealing her rib cage remained intact despite her being engulfed by the flames.
.
The flaming pegasus horror let out a horrible scream that echoed for multiple time through the room as she was convulsing, pointlessly struggling to get ride of the flames. A behavior induced by both her pain and the terrifying confusion she was experiencing now.
.
Antiblue exploited her confusional state to get away from her. The violet mare approached the corridor while locking her glance toward what remains of the flaming Gust.
.
Gust instantly turned toward Antiblue, screaming in complete fury and forcefully flapping her flaming metallic wings. The pegasus barely managed to reach three meters of height away from the floor.
.
Antiblue glared at Gust, looking at her horrible burning face. Despite half of her face being melted away and exposing her side teeth, she managed to give a smiling, chilling psychotic expression before it faded away, replaced by a the mask of a savage beast.
.
"IT'S A BLESSING THAT SOME PARTS OF MY BODY ARE EXPLOSION PROOF! BECAUSE OF YOU I LOST MY PRECIOUS SPEED, BUT I WILL FIND COMFORT BY BECOMING THE BLAZING PHOENIX THAT WILL REDUCE YOU INTO ASHES!"
.
Feeling that her balance would not be kept stable for too long any more, Guts quickly dived toward the violet mare at her furtherly diminished speed, intentioned to ram her or slice her to death. Antiblue pulled her chainsaw starter cord and revved it up before rising it above her as Gust was getting closer to her.
.
"Look at the positive side, Whirlwind Gust. At least you will finally compete with Rainbow Dash about who is the fastest pony." said Antiblue she started to vertically grind her head before shouting. "IN HELL!"
.
Antiblue then cutted through Gust's body and metallic tail without being engulfed by the flames as well. Her chainsaw's current metal alloy was entirely fireproof, so it remained intact and scattered all the flames that was coming to her.
.
Gust was finally killed off for real. Her two body parts abruptly feel to the floor as the metal parts slammed loudly against the metallic surface and the upper parts continued to burn.
.
Antiblue walked away from the room and trotted through the now flaming corridor. The factory is mostly destroyed and engulfed by flames. Another wave of explosions roared through the walls of the entire facility. The message was clear. The Rainbow Sanctuary is about to crumble.
Antiblue galloped through the halls of the facility, preventing herself from being caught in the explosion and that were crumbling debrises falling from the above. She reached the entrance to the warehouse were she came before only to find it already blocked by the debrises obstructing her way. She wasn't expecting this coming. In moment like this, Antiblue had to think very faster, but the answer was already there. She remembered something. One of the pony sized metal container nearby one of the medium sized Pegasus Converter. Antiblue trotted as fast a she could until she reached the container nearby the machine, infested by the flames.
.
She galloped toward it, ignoring the flames while trying to conserve her oxygen as it was slowly taking away from the fire. Antiblue entered the container and closes inside of it. The inside of the container was filled with cotton used to conserve some of the victims.
.
The facility finally bursted in multiple explosions and started to falling apart through the clouds that were supporting the place due to facility's magical gravitational suspender being destroyed in the explosions.
.
Various debris, scraps, drips of Spectra and the flaming bodies of the trapped Enhanced Wraiths were falling like meteors on the plains far away from the White Tail Woods. The container was falling and rotating according to the laws of gravity. Antiblue could only pray that her plan works as she was loosing consciousness due to the acceleration of the fall.
.
The whole rain was watched by the inhabitants of Cloudsdale and by the survivors that escape the Rainbow Sanctuary, that was crumbling in front of their eyes. This rain was eventually being witnessed from the distance by the inhabitants of both Ponyville and Canterlot.
.
After three minute of tremendous fall, the container finally reached the grass of the plains after the rain of debris, objects and corpses violently hitted the ground first.
.
In the underground laboratory, Necro Meele was talking with two earth pony Enhanced Wraiths who informed her about the destruction of the facility. She was obviously angered by this news.
.
"What's that!?" screamed Necro Meele. "The Rainbow Sanctuary WAS DESTROYED!?"
.
Necro Meele slammed her hoof against her desk. Her face was expressing her bitter fury. A failure of that scale cannot possibly be tolerated, especially if this was part of her plan as well.
.
"I spent four months for the construction of that facility."
.
Necro Meele paused a little, grabbing a big machete near to her and looking to the two pony wraiths, who were starting to get a little worried.
.
"I know who is the responsible for this crime." said Necro Meele in a contained fury as she approached her two scared minions while dragging her machete before they started to run.
.
"BUT I STILL CAN'T TOLERATE YOUR INCOMPETENCE!"
.
Necro Meele dashed toward them and managed to cut their body in two and slam repeatedly her machete on them, butchering up their bodies and venting her stress with extreme aggressiveness.
.
In the aftermath of the fall, the plains was completely devastated by the fall and infest with everything that has fallen with the factory's remains. After a while, Antiblue was slowly regaining consciousness. She couldn't see anything, confused on what happened, but once she came to remember what, her confusion disappeared. She had to get out of this container.
.
Antiblue kicked the door multiple times until the container finally opened a little bit. She then pushed with all the strenght that she need and finally managed to get out of it. She was panting, trying to catch all the oxygen that she need. Antiblue couldn't help, but being surprised to have survived this hazardous escape.
.
"I hope that i don't have to make a falling escape ever again." said Antiblue with a almost slightly irritated tone. "Anyway, i have to get out of this place before Celestia herself or the authorities arrives here and caught me up!"
.
She took her chainsaw out of the bag and wield it before revving it up by pulling her starting cord, just to prepare herself for some probable ambushes, even though that this wouldn't be the case.
.
Antiblue stood up on her two hind legs and looked around her, observing the whole devastation caused by the falling remains of the destroyed Rainbow Sanctuary and saw various bloody limbs protunding from the debris. They were belonging to the trapped wraiths that she has lure to her trap, now buried under the rubbles.
.
"So these are the rest of the staff of the facility. I guess they're burnt and crushed, eh."
.
But in a distant point behind her, something began to emerge from the rubbles without her noticing that. Something was digging from the underground. It finally came out of it, revealing to be two pegasi Enhanced Wraiths who managed somehow to survive the fall. One being a female one with her some teeth being replaced with platinum dragon fangs, her wings being covered in gold and her hooves being replaced with bird claws.
.
The other being a male one with spikes protunding from his whole body while wearing a unusual silver armor, his hooves having a spiked ball incorporated into them and his normal eyes being replaced with these of a eagle, made evident by the blood being shed from them. The female one shook her head to get ride of the dirt as she was keeping her eyes closed to preventing the dust to enter in the retinas.
.
"Tell me that is not true. Tell me that is not true. Tell me that is not true." the female one keep saying repeatedly, resulting the male one to being annoyed by her.
.
"Can you shut up, Spira Vacuum!? Open your damn eyes and take a look around!" yelled the male one to her.
.
Spira peeked her eyes opened, observing the place in which she is now and realizing in melodramatic tone what happened.
.
"Noooooooooooooooooooooo-" screamed Spira before being interrupted by the male one."
.
"Shhhhhh! Can you please not screaming so loudly? We cannot afford to be caught with our exposed appearance."
.
"I know, Purple Strike. But think about it! Somepony or something destroyed the Rainbow Sanctuary!"
.
"At least we don't have to live in isolation."
.
"Yes, but Necro Meele in going to kill us!"
.
"I know what you mean but...!"
.
Purple interrupted his sentence as his eyes stumbled on Antiblue, who wasn't even looking at them. He gestured to the violet mare and silently asked Spira to follow her, just to understand is that mare is what they believe it is.
.
Once they've almost approached her, but before they could say something, Antiblue quickly turned toward them, confirming their suspect even more.
.
"It's Antiblue! Antiblue's over there! Is because of her is we had lost our job!" said Spira.
.
"How impudent! You destroyed our pegasus pride. Earth bastard!" yelled Purple.
.
Antiblue's expression became a really pissed off one, already glaring at them with a glance of silent ferocity.
.
"Why is she glaring at us! That cannot be just my insult alone to had gave on her nerves! Our appearances must be making her nervous!" said a little frightened Purple.
.
"I we pull back here, we will not being worth of what Rainbow Sanctuary stands for!"
.
Antiblue observed the two undead pegasi and looked a them. The two undead ponies weren't even moving, fearing for her to do her next move. But instead she wanted some answer from them.
.
"Where... is Necro Meele?" asked Antiblue.
.
"Huh?" said confused Purple.
.
"What?" said Spira, also confused.
.
"Listen! Where is Necro Meele!?" said impatient Antiblue.
.
"You have to get through our corpses, because you will not have your answer!" said Purple charging toward the mare while flailing her spiked balls toward her.
.
"Kishaaaaaa!" hissed Spira, attempting to bite her.
.
They both attacked in a flying offensive, but that was vain as Antiblue managed to kill them in a few seconds. They would be dangerous since they were also good flyers. But they are no match for her.
.
And like this, Antiblue began her bloody crusade. Her target is Necro Meele. If anypony, including the Enhanced Wraiths themselves, get's in her way, they will be brutally killed by her weapon or, in the case of the luckiest ones, they'll find themselves viewing their body from afar.
.
