A New Pony In School

I struggled to remain conscious as a dull ache swept through my body, my horn being it's origin. A few shouts echoed through the hallway to my left, and words made their way to my dulled hearing as I drowsily turned towards the source of the commotion.

"INTRUDERS............ COMING THIS WAY....... EVERYPONY........ ON THE FLOOR....... TOO STRONG........"

A sharp pain threatened to snap my small body in two. I screamed loudly. A single, shouted word, reached my ears, as two all-too-familiar voices made my ears perk up in alertness.

"SPECTRUM!"

Suddenly, a crowd of changelings, obviously terribly injured, burst into the room, and I snapped out of my drunken stupor in relief as a blue pegasus colt and a grey coated unicorn quickly followed, one brandishing a blood-stained dagger, one swinging a bulky and incredibly strong mechanical hoof.

A movement directed my attention towards Grim who had been hooked up to a panel and several cords had been attached to her horn, each carrying a steady stream of every colour of the rainbow. A scream resounded, and I drowsily came to the realisation that it had belonged to me. My sensed dulled again quickly, and I looked over to the new arrivals. They were galloping over to me while being overwhelmed by more changelings than I had ever seen in my life.

And then the world went black.
