Chapter 4: The Battle Begins

Previous Chapter

It was not a good sight. Canterlot, in mostly ruins, with fires everywhere. All hospitals had been filled within minutes of the explosions, and every second that passed caused a pony's health to reach critical status, putting them on the verge of death. Most of the ponies put on that edge had not made it, and passed away slowly, but not in pain. Some had not died, but gone in to a very deep coma which seemed incurable. And a few ponies had recovered. Wiper felt sad as he counted the injury number of civilians only in Canterlot. There was 1 283 injured ponies, 691 dead, 198 in coma, 34 had recovered, 73 had been found under debree and 1 274 was missing, both civians and millitary, most likely dead or trapped under debree. Princess Celestia was one of the missing ponies, but Princess Luna had been found under debree. She was saved becuase she avoided any major injuries, and was leading the search for Celestia. But there had not been any success so far, it was like she had just completely... Vanished in to the thin air.

"You OK sir?"

Wiper looked back. There stood a familiar pony. The white unicorn pony with light and dark green mane and tail, with the cutiemark being a corn.

"Yes... Yes, im fine", Wiper responded.

Wiper looked back on the missing list. Missing #410: Rain Dust. Missing: Since the explosions. Missing #411: Cool Wind. Missing: Since 7 hours before the explosions. Wiper felt a sadness as he continued reading the list. So many missing, injured, dead, all becuase of a couple of explosions? It was terrible. But Wiper knew this wasn't over. Not just yet.

.........

The white unicorn with light and dark green mane and tail called "Corn" simply waited around for any updates on the city. But no luck so far. All reports were about dead ponies, ponies found under debree, and injured ponies. Oh, and about the fires. The explosions were aimed at critical places. The castle, the firehouses, and police stations. The fires were now out of control, stores were being raided despite royal guard efforts. Canterlot had announced a Class 1 warning, otherwise known as Code Red, and all royal guard were asked to report there. But Cloudsdale had reported a Class 3 warning, otherwise known as Code Yellow, requesting technicians to fix the power station. Ponyville had not been hit, but they released a Class 2 warning, otherwise known as Code Orange, becuase of half of the population. But none of the carriers of the Elements of Harmony was missing, which Corn felt better over. But as he looked back at Wiper, he knew that this wasn't over. Not anytime soon. This was just the start...

.........

"I-Is everypony alright?"

Blue tried to get a peak on the powerstation as a bunch of medical pegasus ponies approached it. But she was stopped by royal guard troops.

"P-Please... Help..."

Blue felt ill. Who wouldnt? Ponies, laying wounded infront of the factory, crying for help as their life drained out of them. She barely had any time to react as a loud explosion was heard behind her, and screams of pain.

"EVERYPONY GET DOWN! WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!"

.........

Rain felt less and less of his body. He could no longer feel his hindlegs, which had been crushed for the last 7 minutes. He felt it was all over. Just like that dream he had, exept this time, it wasnt a dream. It was reality. Cruel reality. He were just on the verge of giving up, when he saw the stone wall crushing his hindlegs moving slightly.

"Ugh... This su- Wait, blue colour?"

The stone wall was surrounded by a purple field of magic, and moved from his legs. Rain felt too tired to look up at all, with his horn broken, burnmarks on his body, and no feeling in his hindlegs.

"Hey... We got one here! Quick, i think he is dying!"

Rain heard a a bunch of galloping approached.

"Oh my-" "Oh sweet Celestia!" "I-Is he dead" "His horn! It... It is broken!"

Rain felt the urge to sleep getting to strong for him to suppress, and his eyevision faded, slowly.

"No! Please... Please dont die!"

Rain didnt want to sleep. But the urge was too strong for him to handle. As he lost consciousness, his mind was able to catch up two more sentances before drawing a blank.

"We are losing him! Come on, dont you dare die on me!"

.........

15 minutes had passed since Wiper talked with this new white unicorn, and then what seemed like a mail pony came in and put two documents on the table.

"Updated report, sir."

"Thank you."

The mail pony left. Wiper took one of the fresh documents on the table infront of him. it read: "Missing Ponies Found". He opened it. "Missing #410: Rain Dust | Status: Found under debree, Health critical level. Class 1 medical assistance needed for survival." There was also a bunch of other names, but #411 was nowhere on the list. "Cool Wind, where did you go..." Wiper thought as he put back the document on the table, and picked up the other document. It read: "War Report".
