Deadstria

Chapter 11 The Fearless King

What we do now decides everything. We cannot fail. We cannot mess up. We cannot lose. We must win. We must take our home back. We must….fight. Where Thunderstorm and the others are. Thunderstorm screams “Fire faster!!!” David says “I’m trying!!!” Isaac says “I hate these dame things so much.” Twilight says “They’re Twitchers right?” David says “Yep.” “A whole truck load of them!!!” Thunderstorm says “No.” “Firefly did not die for nothing.” Thunderstorm levitates the baby and Rainbow

Dash off his back and stops running. JT picks up Rainbow Dash and keeps running. Rarity picks up Rain and keeps running. Thunderstorm faces the Twitchers. David and Isaac stand beside him. Thunderstorm says “How many do you count?” David says “30.” Isaac says “Me too.” “There was 40 but we shot them.” Thunderstorm says “Run.” “Catch up to the others.” David says “What?!!” Isaac says “I’m not leaving anyone to die.” Thunderstorm says “I won’t die.” “I’ll catch up once I’m done.” “Now go.” David

says “Your lying.” “I can tell.” “Not even you can handle that many Twitchers.” Isaac says “He’s right.” “Think Thunderstorm.” Thunderstorm says “Go now.” “That’s an order not a request.” “I’am the king of Equestria and you will do what I say.” David says “N…No.” Isaac says “I’m not from Equestria.” “You have no power over me.” The wind picks up and Thunderstorm says “I said go!!!” The wind blows Isaac and David far away from Thunderstorm. They quickly stand up in time to the see the crowd of Twitchers

engulf Thunderstorm. David says “No.” Isaac says “The only pony that I’ve ever respected is now dead.” “Great.” “Just great!” “Without him we’re dead anyway!!” “None of us could hold a Brute in place like he did!!” “For the others to shoot its arms and legs off!!” “And the way he made it so easy to kill an Ubermorph.” “And that little girl.” “She’s already had to lose her mother.” “What are we going to tell her?” David says “Nothing.” “We don’t know for sure yet that he’s actually dead.” “Come on.” “We’ll tell the others what he said.” “That he’ll

show up when he’s done.” Isaac says “Ok.” They reach the others. Rainbow Dash says “Where’s Thunderstorm?” David says “He said he’d catch up once he was done with the Twitchers.” Rainbow Dash says “You left him alone to face 30 Twitchers!!!” Applejack says “They’ll kill him!!” Rainbow Dash starts crying and says “I know he’s dead…I know it.” She starts crying worse. Twilight says “How could you…just leave him like that?” David says “We had no choice.” Isaac says “He sent us flying back with

wind.” David says “We tried to stay but he wouldn’t let us.” Rarity says “Curse his stubbornness.” Tears go down Fluttershy’s cheeks and she says “My…brother.” She starts crying. David wraps a wing around her. She pushes him away and says “Get away from me!!” She breaks down crying. Isaac says “Don’t worry.” “She’s just upset right now.” “She’ll calm down.” “Give her time.” David says “I promised her I find out in time.” “She’s more than mad at me.” “I let her brother die and I broke a promise.” Isaac says

“Like you said.” “We don’t know for sure yet.” David says “I hope he’s alive or I may have lost Fluttershy forever.” Isaac says “They’re pretty close huh?” David says “He’s been a big brother to her since they were 13.” “Yeah.” “They’re pretty close is a understatement.” Isaac says “He’ll show up.” “You’ll see.” “I can already tell that he’s not one to die that easily.” David says “With him…you never really know.” “He could be dead and he could not be.” “He’s unpredictable.” Isaac says “All good leaders are.” David says “He gave us his blessing for getting married but I may have done something unforgivable.” Isaac says “Give him time.” “He’ll show up.” Ratchet pulls out a map and says “I made a secondary plan incase Thunderstorm did end up dead.” “We can still save Equestria but it’s going to be a lot harder.” JT says “Really?” “You’re pulling that out now?” Ratchet says “Like Isaac said.” “We need to move fast.” “There’s no time for grieving right now.” Rainbow Dash stops crying and her eyes are cold. She stands up more straight and

says “He’s right.” “Thunder did not die for nothing and we are wasting time.” “Let’s take Equestria back for him and everypony else that has died.” “I won’t let him die in vain!!” Ratchet nods at her and says “Let’s go.” Fluttershy says “I…I…can’t move.” “I don’t want to leave him.” JT picks her up and says “We’re not leaving you.” Fluttershy says “Thank you.” JT says “No problem.” David levitates Dia De Los Muerto onto his back. She looks back towards where Thunderstorm and the Twitchers are and says “Daddy.” Tears go down her cheeks. She closes her eyes tight. Tears pouring out. Isaac looks back to and says “You better show up soon or we’re all dead.” End of Chapter 11
