Metal gear Dash

It was a peaceful day in Equestria. It always had been after the past years. That wasn't all though, Twilight was becoming new princess, Scootaloo had finally learned flying also gaining her cutie mark, and of course after Pinkie Pie was throwing a huge party after Twilight's nomination. Everyone was going to Celestia's castle for this moment and who could blame them she saved them all from all kinds of threats in the past. Rainbow Dash and the others were there. As Celestia proudly gave her that title, but it was suddenly short lived when it was invaded. Not by Gryphons, not dragons, or Changelings, but their kind of course. Carrying spears or swords in their hands and attacking anyone in sight. However it wasn't an easy task as suddenly Rainbow Dash sprang into action and decided to fight back. She was wearing a blue jacket over a white shirt, and blue shorts. These invaders however were't normal.

No, they were part machine as well. One of them noticed Rainbow Dash and tried to strike her with a spear surrounded by electricity, but the cyan pegasus jumped back dodging the attack and does a back flip to gain some distance. " You've just made your death imminent now!"

Electricity erupted from her hands taking shape into a sword. It was the color of her hair, all the colors in the rainbow with electrical surges running through it. First thing was first for her though. She needed to find Twilight first than escort her somewhere safe and save her friends while she's at it. She snapped out of her thoughts as she had to dodge a cyborg body coming towards her. She noticed Applejack having her hat tilted with a smile. She was wearing a light brown and white shirt, blue jeans, and black fingerless gloves. " Of course. Applejack could probably stall enough for me to get to her." Rainbow Dash thought.

" Hey Saddle Girl! I'm gonna go and save Twilight. Mind holding up a bit?" She asked. Applejack cracked her knuckles as she was now surrounded by cyborg Equestrians. " You just go and do what'cha love Dash. You should be able to find her ten seconds flat, right?" She asked.

Rainbow Dash grinned at the statement and nodded. However before she could move she was suddenly getting held back by a cyborg from behind and two more with swords ready to slice her. The Pegasus broke out and pushed the cyborg holding her into the hit attempt only to get sliced in half with crimson liquid spilling from it's 'thirds'. The other two were so distracted on their handy work on the wrong person that they didn't notice Rainbow Dash cut right through them straight down the middle. She continued her way through the castle of finding Twilight only to find more invaders. " Crap!" She thought

She hid behind the corner of a wall seeing that they one of them were moving towards her while the other's backs were turned. She waited a moment for the right opportunity to strike till she sensed it. She jumped out her spot covering her victim's mouth and slitting his throat making blood spew out profusely. She decided to put her wings to use for the other two who seemed to be walking toward's Twilight's room. She hovered till she was above her prey till she swiped her sword and decapitated both of them in one hit. She descended and walked to Twilight's door and slowly opened it.

" Twi?" She said in a soft tone. In this room there could only be one known place she knew that the alicorn could be.

She walked to a closet door and opened it seeing her friend cowering on the floor, but sighed in relief at seeing her. She happened to be wearing a white dress with diamonds stuck to them on the upper chest part. However it seemed a bit wrinkled up which made Rainbow Dash chuckle what Rarity would do if she saw one "little" scratch on it.

" Alright princess. I'm here to save you." She said holding her hand out for her. Twilight grabbed it and helped herself up. " Thanks." Was all Twilight could say from how scared she looked underneath her calming face. Suddenly, someone burst through one of the walls grabbing Rainbow Dash and tackling her through another wall to end up inside a royal dining room. The attacker had blue claws coming from its knuckles ready to impale her head, but the Pegasus had the strength to kick it off of her. Rainbow Dash jumped up to her feet with her sword now ready. However she gasped at seeing who her attacker was. Pale skin, multi blue hair, purple shades covering her eyes. However what was different was that her body was in multi blue armor and she wasn't wearing it, she was it.

" Vinyl...Scratch." She could barely get the name out. Vinyl grinned as she removed her shades which turned out to move by itself like visors and looked at the shocked Pegasus with her red eyes. " Surprise." She said.

Rainbow Dash was now furious at this. One of their own kind attacking and making an assassination attempt already, and it was her behind it.

" Why?" Rainbow Dash muttered. Vinyl held a hand to to her ear. " Hmm?" She asked. Now Rainbow was growling at her.

" ARE YOU BEHIND ATTACKING HERE AND ASSASSINATING TWILIGHT?!!" She yelled. Hearing this outburst made the cyborg DJ cover her ears and wince.

"Geez. Don't get those wings in a bunch. I'm merely, uh...doing a favor for my savior." Vinyl answered still grinning. Rainbow was now confused. " Savior? And by repaying you kill. That's terrorism!" The Pegasus told her. The DJ cyborg shook off her hands and groaned. " I'm aware, but I didn't have a choice in matter. Either do it and live or die, or just die," Vinyl explained. " End of story."

Vinyl's visors covered her eyes as blue claws came out her knuckles and Rainbow Dash had her sword ready.

" And your in the way of my mission so you must die." Vinyl said.

Soundtrack: I'm my own master now

Rainbow Dash was the first to attack as she swung with both hands trying to cut her in half, but Vinyl merely used one of her claws to block. Vinyl used her other set of claws on her other hand to try to slice Rainbow Dash's face only for her to do a back flip to evade. The Pegasus now grabbed a chair and threw it at Vinyl while running towards her ready to slice her with one hand. Vinyl sliced the chair with one of her claws, but didn't react quickly enough to evade Rainbow Dash earning a cut on her cheek with blood streaks. The DJ laughed at this. " Wow, been a while feeling this besides feeling that cowgirl Equestrian's on my face." She provoked.

Like she wanted, Rainbow Dash took the bait and tried again in rapid strikes. Vinyl just continued blocking each of them still grinning. The Pegasus now tried to kick her to the face only for her leg to get grabbed. " Big mistake." Vinyl told her mockingly. After that said she sliced Rainbow Dash's leg clean off. She yelled in pain which really caught Twilight's attention to see where this was going. What she saw made her nearly scream. Vinyl now had the lower part of Rainbow's leg in her grasp. " Hmm, okay. Let's see what you lacked in the first 30 seconds." Vinyl said. She began telling the downed cyan Pegasus while spinning her motionless leg. " You're slow, you know only basics of swordsmanship, or you self taught yourself which failed miserably. Uh, oh yeah, You're only normal." Vinyl explained. She looked down at Rainbow Dash who was still wincing at the fact at losing her leg in a battle or any body part. Her cut leg was bleeding to where it was fatal which Vinyl seemed to notice.

" I hate seeing you suffer before death...I can make an exception since it's someone who used to be a Wonderbolt and has a big ego." Vinyl threw the leg aside and knelt down beside the downed Pegasus and began torture by slicing off one wing and an arm. All Rainbow did was scream and Twilight was frozen. However the torture was short lived as suddenly Vinyl was punched hard in the jaw by Applejack out of nowhere. The blow sent her flying out of the castle, falling. Applejack looked down to see only to take notice she was floating with rocket boots. " Killing me would only take away part of the situation. By part I mean only 1%. I couldn't come back with a body, but hey I could always explain myself."

Vinyl flew away which left Applejack to kneel beside the dying Pegasus. " Rainbow Dash! Can ya hear me!" She yelled to her. Rainbow Dash could barely hear her even if she yelled. She had lost one of each limb and a wing. She could even feel her own blood on her clothing and face. " She needs help!" Applejack grunts. She carefully picked up Rainbow Dash and began to make her way to a hospital intermediately. However along the way all had learned...she was already gone.
