Tales Of Flash Fire : Chrysalis's Apprentice Chapter 1

The Tales Of Flash Fire : Chrysalis's Apprentice
Chapter 1.

Aside from the fact FlashFire was running for her life in a castle full of guards, she was happy. Her master would be pleased she'd collected the elements of harmony, if she could just manage to bring them back alive.

She was running through a long hall way with colorful stain glass windows lining the walls. She'd be enjoying the pretty pictures if it weren't for the guards behind her. She looked over her shoulder and saw them just 20 ft away.

Her heart pounded as she galloped down the hall. A guards spell exploded the ground a few inches in front of her and sent her flying out one of the windows. Sharp glass stabbed her sides as she crashed through a stain glass picture of discord. She shrieked as she plummeted down towards the courtyard floor. Flapping her damaged wings frantically she managed to land without breaking anything but she was bruised badly.

The guards shouted at her from above the courtyard. Her fur bristled, she stuck her hooves in her saddle bag to make sure the elements were still there. She moved her hooves around crazily until they touched the edge of the case containing the elements of harmony.

She stood shakily and started over to the drawbridge at the other end of the courtyard. The drawbridge started to raise and a barred gate started to come down from the top of the castle wall in front of it. She dashed for the exit, turning every once in a while to see guards poring down a staircase, entering the courtyard.

All of a sudden the flowers smelled delightful, the stream gurgled peacefully and the temperature of this lovely afternoon was making it very hard not to be lolled to sleep, her vision started to fog... STOP IT! she told her self. they must be puting a spell on me.She shook her head, clearing it of the spell and dashed full speed seeing the steel bars lowering, only a few feet away from touching the floor.

She tripped on a small stone just as a guards spear flew past were she had been standing.

A bead of sweat trickled down her neck. She gulped saying a silent prayer and lunged forward. She had made it past the bars! She smiled and started prancing forward, but she didn't go anywhere. Her tail was stuck under the bars! She pulled and tried to wriggle free, frantically. It didn't budge.

The guards galloped at her, there spears ready. She gulped and took one tiny step forward. Rrrriip! " Ow!" The end of her tail had been ripped off! Her eyes widened as they charged, but they had to stop, the bars were in the way. FlashFire took this new opportunity and galloped down the raising drawbridge.

She leaped just as it slammed shut, locking the guards inside the castle. She could hear them shouting in frustration. She sighed in relief until she saw the draw bridge slowly lowering. She ran down the path towards Canterlot. The view from the cliff side city was beautiful. She could see everything from there!

Ponyvile, in the distance was Manehattan, and even further from Manehattan was Fillydelphia!Even further in a different direction was her home, the land of the outcasts, it was a hot dessert wasteland, but never the less, it was her home.

She glanced back at the draw bridge and saw it half way down. She galloped full speed into the town. The mare heard shrieks of children and parents alike, locking themselves into there houses or stores.

She looked at her self, she was in a black suit with knifes on her belt, a black saddle bag and her face and wings were bruised and dirty. She didn't blame them for hiding, she would have to if roles had been reversed. Flash Fire heard a new sound, the sound of loud trumpets and war cries. Cloudsdale Warriors! They must have called in guards and warriors from cloudsdale! She looked up to see a herd of Pegasi swooping down from the sky at rapid speed, coming towards Canterlot.

She whimpered quietly and turned her head towards the castle, the royal guards now free, running full speed at her. She hadn't expected this many ponies to show up! The elements must be something special! She made it to the edge of town, but she had to stop to breathe. As she was gasping for breaths she saw the princesses and Shining Armor appear from the castle tower, there horns glowing with magic and power.

She looked around Canterlot terrified as a force field encircled the city, just as the Warriors from Cloudsdale had arrived. The guards and warriors advanced on her, only 100 feet away now.

She galloped into the outskirts of the town, knee deep in brush and tall grass. She waded over to a large flat stone and stood by it. The guards and warriors advanced with nasty looks on there faces, they were only 50 yards away, 20 yards away, 10 yards away, 20 feet away, but she just stood there, looking satisfied with herself.

The guards shared confused glances as they charged." Halt! Thief! We have you trapped!" One of them shouted as he charged.

Flash Fire just laughed." Yes, but all good thief's have a back up plan!" She kicked the large gray stone at the guards and jumped in a hole below it.

In the dim light of the hole she saw a familiar long tunnel stretching underground. Sticks lined the sides of the tunnels holding up loose dirt. She galloped ahead into the darkness with out stretched wings which knocked the sticks over as she ran. Dirt and rocks fell downward like an avalanche behind her blocking the guards out. She sighed in relief, closing her wings and toke deep breaths.

" Ok," She muttered to herself," All I have to do is follow the tunnel to the end of the Equestrian border... Then the land of out casts will be right there... Piece of cake!" She exclaimed smiling, her energy back.

It had been about 3 hours after she'd entered the tunnel, she saw light up ahead though, taunting her to go on.

When she reached the source she found the tunnel slanting upward until it stopped under a large bush. She peaked out from the prickly leafs, smiling happily. But then her expression changed to cold raw fear.

There were watch towers lining the equestrian border, guards led large patrols all around. There was no way on earth she could make it through there!

Flash Fire had to calm herself down. She was hyperventilating herself." It's ok.." She told herself." You'll just have to go the back way... Through Saddle Arabia, to the crystal empire and into the lands of outcasts..."

Only it wasn't ok, how could she make it into Saddle Arabia from here... There were guards everywhere! She breathed heavily, scouting the territory for an exit. There!

To her left was a large groove a trees, behind was a mountain and from there maybe she could- Something had grabbed her hind legs." I found her!" A voice cried.

She spun around, screamed and wiggled her legs free, kicking him in the face. Guards from every angle swarmed her, like ants into an ant hill. She shrieked and ran for it.

Flapping her wings wildly about, she managed to take off. But there weren't all unicorn and earth pony guards, a group of Pegasi guards soared into the air, flying right behind her. She gulped and looked over her shoulder, they were faster than her, catching up at rapid pace.

The sun slowly started to go down and the moon came into view. Flash Fire dove downward then flew back up, did a few spins and changed direction hoping to through them off, but they definitely hadn't just come out of flight camp. They copied her exact movements and advanced, 50 ft away they flew.

All of a sudden, she felt weightless, wind rushed in her ears, and her vision was dark and blurry. That last thing she saw was herself plummeting down into a rocky valley below.

" Awaken, Thief!"

Flash fire opened her eyes, her vision still blurry, to see a crowd of people surrounding her. There expressions were angry and fierce. She was in a strange white building... that look like a tower, a watch tower. There must have been a explosion to cause the black out, she thought. She gasped, her saddle bag was missing. The elements where were they.

" I deeply suggest you apologize, and maybe we'll make you death less painful!" A guard came closer, knife in hand.

She was trapped, there was nothing she could do. She was tied to the floor, hand cuffed, and she was too weak to think. This is it, she thought, I'm dead.

Apprentice

Chapter 2.

" No." Flash Fire said coldly baring her teeth.
" You heard her!" The pony raised the knife and thrust it downward at her. She closed her eyes preparing for the worst.
But just as it touched her it melted into ... Chocolate milk? It couldn't be. The ropes around her turned to lickerish. She looked around the room until she laid her eyes on the case on the other side of the room, lying on a white pedestal.
" How did- what happened to- how?" The guard stuttered.
Flash Fire yanked free of the lickerish and lunged for the pedestal, grabbing the Case of elements with her hooves.
Just then discord appeared, laughing happily at the confused faces around the room." You should see your faces right now!" He snapped his fingers and mirrors appeared in the guards hands.
The guard with the knife which was now Chocolate milk exclaimed " Discord! Why would you free her? You've been reformed, your good now, this Treacherous Pegasus stole the elements of harmony."
" Well, I knew that... Chaos knows all!" Discord smiled," Now dear," he said turning to Flash Fire," if you could just hand over those as a gift of your freedom..."
" I'm sorry Discord... But I can't do that..." Flash Fire said, tightening her grip on the case. She turned, noticing her saddle bag on the wall.
" Discord! What are you doing! You are good, you work for the princess now! Seize her!" A guard exclaimed angrily.
" Now, now there's no reason we can't get along here, but may I just say that even if I was good, which I'm not, then in what way would that make me under the princess's command!" Discord raised his fluffy eyebrows, snapped his fingers, and out side a window you could see a row of buffalo's dancing in ballerina outfits.
" Wait? Are you saying your still evil!" The guard said confused.
" in what way does chaotic mean evil!?!" Discord said as he snapped his fingers and glasses appeared on his face, while he typed on a computer he'd just created, trying to find a way in which chaos is evil.
" Just answer my question! Have you been reformed or not!" The guard yelled sternly.
" Gees, such attitude! All I did was lie... I'm surprised no one catch on... I mean who would trust the Master of chaos... " He clapped his hands and the glasses and computer disappeared.
Flash Fire looked around frightened at Discord and the guards. Both wanted the elements for different reasons. What should she do? She didn't have time to think, so she did probably looking back on it the stupidest thing she could have... She grabbed her saddle bag, stuffed the case in it, and jumped out the window while Discord and the guards argued. Flash Fire flapped her wings which had now felt broken glass twice. She landed shakily, hoping they wouldn't come after her. How was she suppose to out smart Discord? I mean the guards seemed a stupid as a rock... But Discord... He was the master of chaos. Flash Fire decided to stick to her plan and go into Saddle Arabia. The torn black suit she was still wearing camouflaged her well into the night. She figured every pony would stop looking for her a while since the guards had caught her earlier. She sighed annoyed at Discord and the dancing buffalo's in two twos outside, and galloped towards the mountain side in the distance.
Sadly the alarm sounded behind her after a few minutes of running. Drat! They must of finished their argument. She ran full speed ahead, not looking back, but she could hear the sound of their hooves beating against the ground. She entered a forest just in the nick of time, the guards had caught up way to fast because she had been exhausted from running for so long. She hid in a tree watching eyes widened as they searched the forest. She wanted to fly but she'd be in plain sight and they'd catch her for sure. All of a sudden Discord appeared. Oh great, she thought.
" I can get you out this you know, just a snap of the finger! All I ask for is the Elements in return!" Discord said.
" Shhh you'll blow my cover." Flash Fire whispered.
" Oh I would? I certainly wouldn't mean too!?!" Discord said raising his voice.
" Please, be quiet..." She begged
" It's not like I'm strapping you to the trunk of the tree and screaming here she is!" He snapped his fingers and did exactly what he said except for the "not" part." Oh wait!" He continued." I am!!!"
Discord laughed in amusement while he shouted " here she is, come and get her!"
Flash Fire shrieked and tried to wiggle free as the guards turned." Discord! Stop it!"
But he just laughed. She knew Discord only did things for his own amusement, so she stopped shrieking, didn't try to wiggle free and just stood there with a blank look on her face.
" What's the matter mare? Speechless with fright!?!" He laughed some more.
" No." She replied coldly.
" Well we'll just need to fix that won't we!" He clapped his hands and the guards turned to Monsters, 9 ft. tall with huge muscles and talons. The number of eyes on there head tripled and they gritted there huge yellow teeth.
Flash Fire whimpered as they stampeded towards her. She closed her eyes scared of what was about to happen next and when she opened them again she was in a arena. Her hooves were tied up to a longer rope that stretched up to the roof, the guards were still monsters lumbering towards her but it seemed every time they lunged a person above her moved the rope just barely enough for her to survive." Discord is this some kind of game to you?!?!"
Discord smiled as if it was obvious." Well duh! I call it, swing the rope to avoid the angry monsters and if you fail Flash Fire dies!"
Flash Fire narrowed her eye brows. " Discord I demand you put me down this instant!"
" I'd be happy to... Just as soon as you hand over the elements of harmony!" Discord said pointing towards her saddle bag.
" I'd rather them burn in lave with me then fall into your filthy hands!" Flash Fire remarked, her tone raising.
" That can be arranged!" Discord smiled as a pit of lava appeared under her. Her ropes slowly lowered towards it.
I didn't mean it literally! She thought. Sweat poured down her face as she neared the source of heat. The ropes lowered further, until the lava was only a few inches from her face, which now burned with pain from the heat of the lava. " Discord please!" She begged," Don't kill me, If I go the elements go with me!"
" Then so be it! If the elements burn then no one can ever stop me!" He laughed evilly... I mean chaotically.
The ropes started to catch fire but they still lowered, the lava 2 centimeters from her face. Then she heard the ropes snap. She couldnt bare to look, she closed her eyes as tears fell from her cheeks but after a while she opened them again, seeing herself no longer in a arena but back in the forest. Lightning struck in the sky, it neared Discord who was to busy laughing to realize they were back in the forest. All of a sudden it struck him, and he turned to stone. Nothing but a statue.
Flash Fire just stared, her mouth gaping at the sight. After standing still for a couple minutes she realized it wasn't one of his tricks. She slowly walked through the forest, up the mountain wondering who did it... Lightning doesn't just turn ponies to stone every storm! Who did it? Did they want the elements to? Would the turn her to stone? She didn't know but those thoughts kept her moving through the night, hoping the last 2 questions were wrong.

The Tales Of Flash Fire : Chrysalis'
Apprentice

Chapter 3.

It had now been 3 days since she'd seen discord turned to stone. Flash Fire had now made it into Saddle Arabia, the ponies here didn't seem to know about her or the elements... They treated her like a normal citizen... Well kind of like a normal citizen... They seemed maybe a bit too friendly. Like for instance every one in town stopped just to say hi and introduce themselves, and when she complemented a ponies hat they said she could have it, and when she walked by a store they claimed their products were free. Never the less, she went along with it. Flash Fire neared a small diner, entering it hungrily." Hello, Ma'am! How may I help you?" A pony said smiling at her.
Flash Fire was a bit taken back at first when the pony called her ma'am... The pony looked only a few weeks younger than her," Um... Could I have a rose and daisy petal sandwich please?" Flash Fire asked.
"Why of course! Right this way!" The pony led her to a seat," will this be ok for you ma'am?"
" Uh... Sure it's fine!" Flash Fire replied.
" Ok, I'll have that sandwich for ya in a jiffy!" The waiter pony galloped of to the kitchen. Flash Fire turned her attention to the tv, mounted on the wall. It was on the news channel." Breaking news! This just in! the elemen-" The channel suddenly changed to sports and the waiter pony appeared beside her." Sports is much more interesting than news! Here's your sandwich!" The pony handed her the sandwich requested and trotted off. She was about to take a bite when a couple came up to her." Hello! You must be knew here! I'm Dawn and this is my boyfriend Cosmo, nice to meet you!"
Flash Fire smiled awkwardly. Why would random strangers just come up and introduce them selves? Be nice! Flash fire told herself. " Hi! It's nice to meet you too!" She smiled trying to act polite as they left.
After she'd finished her sandwich, the waiter mysteriously appeared beside her." Will that be all for you ma'am? We have excellent carrot cake, cherry pie, and apple pie!"
" Oh I'm stuffed, I think that'll be all, how much do I owe ya?" Flash Fire asked.
" Oh, for you Flas-ma'am,' that'll be free! Enjoy your evening!" The pony galloped off smiling nervously.
What had she been about to say? It sounded almost like her name, but it couldn't have been, she'd never meet her before. She pushed the thought to the back of her mind and walked out the door.
After a few minutes of strolling through the streets she heard a loud meow coming from a alleyway. She galloped over to the sound. As she walked further into the dim light of the alleyway she started to see a trail of crumpled paper leading to a small kitten with a cute purple collar ripping some paper to pieces, meowing in delight. She laughed a little until she took a closer look at what the kitten was tearing up. It was a wanted poster with her face mounted on it. She whimpered, what did these ponies know about her? Who hid the posters? Her thoughts were interrupted by a voice that sounded a lot like the waiters." Hello there, young mare! My I interest you on a free spa special?" The mare had the same pale green fur, purple and blue mane and red eyes, except her mane style was slightly different and she was wearing a fluffy white spa robe so you couldn't see her cutie mark to tell. Relax, Flash Fire told her self, maybe the waiter and this spa mare are sisters.
" Um... Sure, I guess I'll take you up on the offer." She decided to say yes because her hooves wore soar and she was a bit curious to find out more about this mysterious mare.
" Splendid! Please follow me!" The Mare said, steering her away from the alley. Flash Fire followed her cautiously into a building. Inside was a huge spa with mani pedi chairs, a hot tub, mud bath, seaweed wrap, and message tables. " if you need anything just let me know..." The Unicorn said.
" Ok." Flash Fire responded, taking off her saddle bag and splashing in the hot tub.
" Why don't I take your saddle bag for you? I'll set it some where dry." The mare said quickly.
" No!" Flash Fire yelled louder than she'd meant to," I mean no thank you, I'd prefer it near me please." Flash Fire said smiling nervously.
" Very well." With that the mysterious unicorn mare left. Flash Fire sighed in relief and enjoyed the hot bath. A few minutes later the mare came back to check on her." Is there anything else I can get you, Flash Fire?" The mare smiled at her.
Flash Fire froze. How did she know her name? She must have been the one to pull down the posters, she must have been the mare at the diner who'd almost said her name." Who are you and how do you know my name!" Flash Fire leaped out of the bath, putting on her saddle bag.
The unicorns smile faded, her posture stiffened, and she began to speak in not such a happy tone." Look mare lets cut to the chase here, I want the elements ok? I know you have them... Just hand them over and I won't hurt you."
" Never!" Flash Fire retorted barring her teeth.
" I didn't want to have to do this Flash Fire but you've pushed my limits!" The unicorns horn started to glow," I am Hypno, Unicorn of hypnosis, I shall collect the elements from you, and nothing can stop me!"
Flash Fire ducked as Hypno lunged, barely dodging her attack. Hypno growled and sent a spell flying towards her. Flash Fire screamed and jumped, her hooves barely missing it. The spell shattered a vase of flowers and disappeared. Flash Fire shrieked and barrel rolled under a table just as another spell hit the spot she'd been standing. Flash Fire ran for it. She made it into the rest room, locking the door behind her, breathing heavily.
The lock started shaking, then in a loud crack it shattered off and Hypno entered the room with a angered look.
Flash Fire looked up and said." So this whole town has been hypnotized, that's why there acting so strange!"
" That's right, Pegasus! I'm about to do the same to you if I don't get those elements." Hypno shot more spells which Flash Fire barely dodged.
This went on for a few minutes until she had Flash Fire cornered in the bath room by the sink." Say good bye to sanity Flash Fire!" Hypno sent out one last attack at Flash Fire who dodged by ducking slightly. The spell bounced of a mirror behind her and hit Hypno, right in the face. Hypno stood there with a blank expression with weird swirls in her eyes. Did she just hypnotize her self? Flash Fire didn't have time to care. She ran past the stunned unicorn and galloped out of the spa building, and into the street, fleeing the weird city. Why do so many people want the elements? They've only stopped to villains right? She pushed those thoughts away, only caring about getting out of this psycho town!

The Tales Of Flash Fire : Chrysalis's Apprentice

Chapter 4.

Flash Fire had been fleeing for hours now, Saddle Arabia was barely a dot in the horizon. She'd been following a small dirt trail up hill into the wilderness in the direction of the Chrystal Empire, when all of a sudden she heard a loud noise that sounded like," That'll knock 'em dead!" She gulped and fear began building up as the sound came closer. It sounded almost like a battle cry. A shouting and yelling... Then a chanting.
She gulped and hid behind a bush. She peered out from the leafs and didn't see any pony on the trail up ahead, or the wilderness. Maybe she'd just imagined it, but it had sounded so clear. She waited. Nothing.
She shrugged and came out from the bushes, following the trail once again. Then a loud shout." I'm gonna blow them all back in one swift move!" Flash Fire looked around. No pony. She paused, waited and then the pace of the wind picked up. It started slowly sucking in faster, and faster... She walked against the current of air until she couldn't anymore. She looked behind her and in the air was a little twister getting larger and larger. But it wasn't a ordinary tornado, it was gray and 3 different shades of blue! She shrieked as she was pulled up into the air, towards it. She flapped her wing frantically, but they could barely do a thing, the broken glass and explosions and all had pretty much broke them. They ached and she had to stop. She still struggled though but eventually she was dragged into the tornado and was spinning wildly about in it. As she was being tossed around, she screamed." HEEEEEELLLLPPP!!!! SOME PONY HELP ME!!!!!"
All of a sudden the tornado dissolved into a huge wave of air that flung her 50ft away, and into a pond.
Flash Fire stood, her mane sopping wet, with a enraged look on her face. Her face grew redder by the second as she stomped out of the pond.
" Hahahahaha!!! Ow! Hahahahaha!" A gray Pegasus appeared in front of her with a damaged looking wing, there were thorns stuck in it and it was torn. She had a mid –length mane that had 3 different shades of blue in it. Amusement glowed in her yellow eyes, then it was replaced with pain, and back to amusement.
“Let me guess! You want the stupid Elements too? Well you can't have them!" Flash Fire shouted at her.
“What are you talking about, mare? I'm just practicing my sick moves! Did you like one of my originals, the tornado of doom?" The mare responded happily.
Flash Fire gritted her teeth." Oh yes, I just love having near death experiences! Especially when I get sopping wet afterwards!"
" Hey don't get all mad with me! It serves ya right for trying to steal my moves, I came out here to practice alone!" The mare continued her smile fading.
" I didn't come out here to steal your precious little moves, Pegasus! I'm just passing through!" Flash Fire retorted, angered.
" Oh... I thought you were try'n to take my moves for the Best young flyers competition at Cloudsdale in a few days... Sorry about that, I didn't mean to scare ya." The mares tone started to sound more apologetic.
Flash Fire sighed," It's ok, as long as you didn't mean to..."
"It doesn't look like I'll be able to make it any way though... My wings pretty hurt from the landing of the tornado of doom... Maybe next year..." The mare looked down sadly.
Flash Fire couldn't help but feel bad for the mare, even though she was sopping wet because of her." I'm Flash Fire... Sorry about your wing... I broke mine too so I can't fly either if it makes ya feel any better."
" I'm Nightstorm, best flyer in all of Equestria!" Nightstorm smiled proudly.
" Nice to meet you... You know minus the whole tornado thing..." Flash Fire responded, thinking this mare might be a bit full of herself at times.
" So uh... Where ya headed? I'm not going anywhere soon with my wing hurt..." Nightstorm murmured curses under her breath.
" I'm headed to the Chrystal Empire, but I'm only passing through there too... After that I'm uh-" after that she murmured something quietly, not wanting the mare to hear.
" Egh, I hate the Chrystal Empire! A shame I have to go with you!"
Flash Fire raised her eye brows," why would you be going wi-" she was cut off by Nightstorm.
" You don't expect me to leave you alone, do you? You barely survived my best moves! You wouldn't stand a chance alone in this wilderness!" Nightstorm interrupted.
Flash Fire sighed starting to get a bit aggravated at this mare," Look, it really nice of you to offer and all bu-"
" Buh buh buh! I'm going with you!"
Nightstorm cut off.
Flash Fire tapped her hoof nervously. If someone attacked her on the way wanting the elements, Nightstorm would find out she was a thief! She couldn't let her come." Nightstorm, I really don't think it's a good idea for you to come..."
" I'm coming with you whether you like it or not and that's final!" Nightstorm stomped off down the trail. Flash Fire rolled her eyes and yelled after her." Wrong way!"
Nightstorm snorted and turned around." I uh... Knew that.." She galloped off in the other, passing Flash Fire and leaving her in the dust.

" Hey, wait up." Flash Fire ran after her.

It had been about a hour down the trail and Flash Fire could start to see the peak of the Chrystal Castle tower. As she kept going she could see the beginnings of a town made of Chrystals. She had pretty much chased after Nightstorm they entire afternoon and she was still ahead of her. But never the less she kept at it, until Nightstorm stopped running, in fact she started slowly backing up.
" F-Flash Fire?" Nightstorm whimpered up ahead.
" What's wrong?" Flash Fire asked galloping up to her.
" M-M-Manticore! Ahhhhhhhh!" Nightstorm screamed and galloped away as a huge manicore charged at her, appearing from behind some dense brush by the trail. It bared it’s yellow lion fangs and slashed its scorpion tail.
" Ahhhhhhhh!" Flash Fire screamed and ran after her. The half lion and half scorpion beast ran after the growling viciously. They ran and ran until Nightstorm tripped on a tree root. Blind with fear Flash Fire didn't notice and tripped on one of her hooves, landing face first in the dirt beside her. She spit out some dust, trying to get to her hooves.
Flash Fire heard the sickening cry of the manticore and a few seconds later a loud thump as it hit the ground. She turned, hearing a loud evil laughter, her eyes widening in fear as she heard a deep voice say," Hello, Thief! Welcome to the Chrystal Empire! Now hand over the case!"
Flash Fire felt a bead of sweat trickle down her neck, she found it hard to breathe and she was beginning to panic, why did so many people want the elements? Chrysalis had never trained this… She’d left the Land of Outcasts so unprepared, surely Chrysalis hadn’t meant too.
Will I ever get home? What if Chrysalis gave me an impossible task?
Flash Fire looked into the sky and murmured.” Chrysalis, Where are you? If you’re out there please, help me!”
