C.O.L.T.S II

Next chapter.

Spike groaned as he the doctors attempted to pull the spear out of his shoulder. It was jammed good and it wasn't coming out.

"Please stop squirming or we'll never get this out." A doctor said as he attempted to pull the spear out to no avail.

"I have a better idea." Spike said as he grabbed the spear with his claw and tore it out. Blood proceeded to spurt everywhere but quickly healed.

"Yes or we could do that." The doctor said as Spike leapt up and walked towards the door.

"Where are you going? You need to rest!" A nurse called.

"I'm a COLT, we don't need rest." Spike said as he walked out. He could hear the doctors and nurses yelling but he ignored it. He was more concerned about Sweetie Belle who had been hurt in the assault. Spike walked into her room where she lay on a bed. There were large bruises around her throat and head from the Mordra and seeing her bruised up made Spike very angry. He saw Rarity and Autumn in there as well.

"Spikey-Wikey!" Rarity said as she jumped at Spike and hugged him. Spike could see Autumn giving him a death stare, the stallion obviously had the wrong idea. "Are you hurt? Did that nasty creature harm you?"

"I'm fine, It's Sweetie Belle I'm worried about." Spike said with concern. Sweetie was unconscious as she lay in her bed.

"You okay Sweetie?" Spike asked.

"Excuse me sir but she must rest, her windpipe is quite damaged." Nurse Redheart said.

"Okay, make sure she gets better." Spike said as he left the hospital eager to hunt down and kill the creature who hurt her.

Applejack ran crying into Twilights library. She wasn't looking and she collided with Deadeye who barely budged from the hit but the orange mare was knocked to her flank. She looked up and saw the large stallion looking down at her. She wasn't going to lie, he was bucking terrifiying!

"AH UH SORRY SIR AH-!" Applejack mumbled.

"Is there something I can help you with?" He asked.

"Ah'm lookin fer Twilight." Applejack said. Deadeye pointed his hoof upstairs.

"Miss Sparkle is sleeping." Deadeye said. Little did he know that Twilight had actually woken up and was hearing the whole thing.

"Applejack? Is that you?" Twilight asked.

"TWI!" Applejack said crying as she ran to her friend. "Ah got into a really bad argument with Skullcrusher can ah stay here fer a while?"

"Of coure you can! What happened?" Twilight asked. She could tell her friend was really upset. Applejack explained the whole argument and how it ended.

"An then ah said ah hated him an ah ran off!" Applejack cried.

"It's okay Applejack I'm sure he'll understand." Twilight said. Meanwhile Deadeye had wandered off and began looking through history books looking for more information on the COLTS. He came across a book entitled 'Uncommon Valor: The COLTS'. He opened it and began reading, he was fairly content with what he read as most of it he had already been told. There was one incident however, no pony ever mentioned.

The COLT Massacre.

"On January 17 in the year 1005 , Changeling forces took on the shape of COLT commandos and attacked the city of Trottingham where nearly one thousand innocent civilians were killed. The country was tricked and believed it was the COLTS who attacked the city, because of that the COLTS across Equestria were exterminated." Deadeye read aloud. He was starting to get angry but he continued. "COLTS Omega under the command of Captain Deadeye." Deadeye stopped as he saw his name in the book. "Were arrested and about to executed at Ponyville but were able to escape with the help of Lt. Skullcrusher and Commander Soarin. However the other COLTS were not as lucky, COLTS Omega were the only survivors. The COLTS base was attacked under a battalion of soldiers led by Captain Shining Armor who was the sister of the element of Magic, Twilight Sparkle. Even those who weren't COLTS but were associated with the program in any way were killed, such was the fate of the head of the program, Colonel Striper, who was killed. Colonel Striper was believed to be the biological father of..." Deadeye said as he put the book down stricken with grief. "Me?". Deadeye felt rage building up towards the mare who housed him, her brother DARE kill his father?

"Hey where did Deadeye go?" Twilight asked.

"I am right here!" Deadeye said angrily as he threw the open page of the COLT Massacre in front of Twilight who felt the color drain from her face.

"Deadeye! I-" Twilight said.

"You lied to me! All of you lied to me!" Deadeye said. "You lied to those other ponies I was rescued with as well!"

"Deadeye please listen to me!" Twilight pleaded, she couldn't believe this was happening again.

"So you can corrupt my mind further? No thanks!" Deadeye said as he burst out of the library with the history book.

"Oh no this is not good!" Twilight said. "Applejack we have to get him before he does any damage!"

"Okay ah comin!" Applejack said still upset with her fight over Skullcrusher.
