The Return of Blood Hunters

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

I'm not used to sneaking around; doesn't take to much to get around Lyra when she's asleep and it also-

A scream that was as if it were muffled tore my attention.

I ran in search of the source and witnessed something from nightmares; bleeding from the mouth and his eyes I saw Dr. Whooves.

He was trying to scream and his eyes were wide then it stopped.

The screaming returned louder now that his mouth was open; it was nothing but agony.

In the corner I caught sight of a white pegasus with her face in hooves; why is she in there?

A loud splitting sound and my attention returns to the scene at hand; Dr. Whooves bending over backwards at an angle he could nip his own tail.

He started screaming louder.

I can't hear anything but the sound of him screaming.

He face is covered in blood.

I feel tears in my eyes.

His hair is stained red with damp blood.

Crack!

A silence filled the room and I couldn't look anymore.

I turned back though, I had to see.

His ribs were poking out once I looked.

I turned my head quickly already having seen to much.

More blood had been pouring down his body.

I looked for that pegasus but she was nowhere to be seen.

I couldn't look anymore.

I ran.

I turned a corner.

My heart stopped.

I cried; I wasn't sure if it was from joy or sorrow.

Crimson Ink was trying to bust his way through a cell door; it was a strong door to hold him back, especially in a fit of rage.

I had to act quick.

I rammed head first into the door.

Crack!

I was stunned.

I had barely got that right.

I bashed it again; another perfect hit.

I stumbled.

I was dazed and ended up falling to the ground gasping slightly.

He smashed into the door three more times.

A roar rang out all of a sudden "I am going to kill everyone of you!" he was furious and stomping his hooves in frustration.

I was trying to stay quiet but my breathing had gotten worse.

I was coughing when he was calm enough to help.

His eyes held so much sorrow, a nice contrast to the fury they could hold.

"Bon Bon? is that you?" I was only able to nod.

He struggled but he was able to get me up with his magic and then propped me up against him "let's get you-" I was shaky but touched his shoulder.

"I-" a coughing fit stopped me "I need to save a friend…" I was shaky but pointed down the hall as my voice disappeared; he nodded and helped me limp to my destination.

His magic was stronger than the last time I saw it; he was able to rip the door off the hinges and get Dr. Whooves so he could walk along with us.

Whooves looked to me and I could see the pain in his eyes; what little I could see past the blood at least.

He looked at me and Ink- "I need to get Derpy" -his voice was harsh.

He ran down the hall despite the pain that you could see in each step.

I followed as best I could leaning heavily on Crimson Ink's frame; he really doesn't seem like a unicorn.

Whooves with his ribs still sticking out and bleeding bucked the door open.

Inside the cell was Derpy; Whooves didn't even stop before she was on his back.

We ran out of the room and down the hallway headed for the exit; shortly after I saw Vinyl but where was Octavia?

I looked a little closer and saw she was unconscious on Vinyl's back.

The entrance was staring us in the face.

We saw it start to close and rushed.

Whooves and Derpy made it out.

Followed by Crimson Ink and myself.

I turned to watch for Octavia and Vinyl.

The door slammed but Octavia and Vinyl never emerged from the other side.

With whatever had trapped them.
