He then turned as he felt a hoof touch the back of his clawedhand, he turned quickly and saw Starlight and his gaze soften.

"Where is that airship?" Boss Hogg growled

"Spike?" Starlight spoke, then Thorax and Sunburst appeared.

Rover picked up an Automatic and fired at his back, Drakezilla turned his neck and melted the firearm into melted pool of metal. the diamond dog approached the Titan.

"Is that it?" Rover said "a few injures to me that all?" he said.

"Get back Soldier!" Boss Hogg shouted.

"And what do we have here a lovely mare caring for a beast" Rover sneered, then Drakezilla growled and slammed a sudden fullbody kick to Rover's front bones could be heard snapping and flying back bouncing on the hard ground leaving cracks and slammed into the dried tree 1000 feet away knocking it over, Rover fell on the ground gravely injured and knocked out.

"Fire Damn it, Fire!" General hogg barked

Then a airship appeared and fired, Drakezilla scooped Starlight up and shielding her, the blasts and rockets hitting his superstrong scales and spines

"Hold your fire" General spoke with wide eyes, then Drakezilla grabbed a hunk of scrap next to him with a clawedhand and threw it at the airship spinning like a boomerang breaking the rotters off which spiraled at Spike who raised an arm blocking and stopping it and it fell on the ground and the ship crashed on the ground blowing up and sending it rolling at the two, Drakezilla put his arms around the mare holding her to his stomach and curled his other limbs around her even his neck and tail as the airship slammed hard and fast into him blowing up in a firestorm of flames as the broken pieces went by him

"NOO!" Thorax and Sunburst screamed, then glared death at the General who was pale with shock, then after a minute a figure jumped out and landed softly on the ground three feet from the fire with a unconscious Starlight Glimmer being held in a bridal carry in his massive clawedhands, he looked at her with concern and looked at the General and growled threateningly as flames flickered off his fangs and opened his wings and took off.


Back at Sunbursts home some soldiers walked out who had explained what happened, then Boss Hogg walked out with Sunburst with Celestia behind him.

"You did the right thing tipping us off" General Hogg said.

"Where are they going, she's in danger" Celestia asked.

"From whom, he protected her then General almost had her killed" Sunburst told her.

"My main concern is her safety" General spoke.

"You know Starlight told me what Spike told her if you open your eyes you can tell when somepony is lying and you are" Sunburst said "I do know she'll help him" he said.

"Then she's adding a fugitive and I can help either" Celestia said as General and the Princess left.

"You know I wondered why Starlight doesn't want to hear your name Celestia" Sunburst said "Now I know first hoof" he spoke after them.

Later at a room in the army base Rover was their covered in full body cast and machine supports, General Boss Hogg walked to the doctor

"Will he ever be the same?" General asked

"bones are shattered almost look like crushed pebbles and awful crushed spine, ribs shattered at punctured his lungs and grazed the surface of his heart about a few inches deep, his still has a heart like I haven't seen but he will need metal infusions to replace the bones since they are shattered" The doctor said "He still very lucky to be alive" he finished.

"Just do it" Boss Hogg snapped "double the serum" he said, later the docters opened up Rover as the put him in a deep sleep and placed pieces of metal in and sewed him up and injected him with more serum and the stitches fell off as the wound healed and the bones fused together and with the metal

Later

"Sir he's awake" the doctor said, Rover was up with his cast off and looked normal

"You good soldier?" General asked.

"Awake and alive and pissed off" Rover gritted.


Later deep in the cave of the Forbidden Jungle Drakezilla landed at the entrance with a crash with a still unconscious Starlight Glimmer it was thundering and lightening and raining hard. Drakezilla laid her down gently as possible under a over head of the cave to stay dryer and she woke up and smiled a bit.

"Hey" Starlight said Drakezilla ducked down to see her and a huge crash of lightening flashed behind him and since was a still on edge from earlier and stood but bonked the back of his head on the ceiling making him hold it and stepped out, Then he turned and saw Starlight coming out.

"Spike?" Starlight spoke.

"Drakezilla" Drakezilla he said placing a clawedhand on his chest ducking down his head again and thunder crashed and lightening flashed making him bonk his forehead and making him growl fiercely and stood up grabbing the over head his clawedhands the rocks cracking as his clawedfingers dug in and ripped it off and tossed it thousands of yards away at the noise and roared at it thunderously making the jungle shake then got in a defensive stance growling, then snapped around at the sound of a flashing sound and saw a alicorn and a changeling.

"It's us Spike" Thorax said quickly seeing Drakezilla was about to attack, Drakezilla eased out of his stance and then the four went in the cave

"Watch your head" Starlight told him. Starlight looked at Drakezilla who was sitting 5 feet away he was sitting at the back of the cave and a loud blast of thunder rang out he launched a large jet of whitehot flames followed by a loud roaring sound, the flames shot out of the caves mouth ,the fire scorched the rocky ground but left the cave warm from the heat.

Starlight got closer Drakezilla tensed up "Relax it's me" she said and sat next to him kissing his cheek and wrapping her forelegs around the massive leg and when the thunder crashed again Drakezilla eased up, the mare next to and holding him was calming him down.

"It's just a bad storm" she soothed and curled up next to his side, Drakezilla curled up around her and wrapped a arm around Thorax and EastStern pulling them closer and held them close.

"We here for you" Thorax spoke.

Drakezilla looked at them "Starlight, Thorax, EastStern" he spoke, Then Starlight started to hum in melody making them all fall asleep but only Drakezilla stayed awake.
