My Little Terminator

<7:34PM>

Outside of town, the terminator closed in, determined to kill Velvet and Night Lite.

The two had just gotten dressed after their fiery act of passion.

"Think fast!" Velvet exclaimed as she started to toss the bag of pipe bombs at him, but did not release her magical grip.

They both chuckled at the rather dangerous yet funny joke.

They then froze and became extremely alert as they heard a dog barking outside.

Outside, the terminator had arrived at the motel and was approaching the room. He got to the door and busted it down.

He fired his weapons all over, repeating the process with the bathroom door.

Meanwhile, Twilight Velvet and Night Lite had just hopped into a nearby truck and drove off to make their escape.

The terminator heard the sound of the truck's engine and rushed outside.

Night Lite rammed the terminator with the truck and quickly backed out as the killer cyborg was knocked down.

The terminator quickly got back up and got onto his motorcycle to give chase.

They drove on to the freeway and made their way back towards Los Pegasus.

Night Lite looked in the mirror and saw the terminator closing in.

The terminator fired at their truck as it swerved to avoid the gunfire.

"TRADE PLACES!" Night Lite ordered as Velvet picked up a pipe bomb.

They switched, with Night Lite using the pipe bombs while Velvet drove, avoiding several bursts of fire.

"FASTER, DRIVE FASTER!" Night Lite ordered as he lit the fuse of the first bomb.

He tossed the bomb backwards towards the terminator with his magic.

The bomb detonated behind him. He repeated the process with the remaining bombs, one exploding in front of the terminator.

"AUGH!" Night Lite grunted as he was hit by a stray bullet from the terminator.

He dropped the bomb, which detonated behind the truck.

Velvet looked over and saw him leaning out the window, and could tell that he was wounded.

"NIGHT LITE!" she called out as she pulled him in.

"OH CELESTIA!" she exclaimed as she drove on.

The terminator dropped his assault rifle, for it was out of ammo, and got out a .44 magnum revolver.

As he fired, he slowly pulled up next to the rear of the truck.

One bullet hit the driver-side mirror as Velvet looked on.

In desperation, she rammed the terminator's motorcycle into the guardrail.

The terminator fell off and slid along the road.

"OH, HORSEAPPLES!" she exclaimed as she lost control and the truck flipped onto its roof.

Velvet desperately tried to check the weakened Night Lite's wound.

The terminator slowly got up and wound up getting run over by a gasoline tanker truck.

The driver stomped on the brakes and the truck's wheels slid along the roadway as it came to a stop.

By the time he stopped scrapping along the road, a third of the flesh on his face was gone, exposing the metal underneath.

The driver got out to check on the pony he just hit, only to be thrown down by him.

Velvet saw this and tried in desperation to pull Night Lite out and get away.

The terminator walked towards the truck and climbed into the driver's seat.

"Let's get out of...here." the driver's passenger trailed off as he saw the stranger climb in.

"Get out!" the terminator ordered in an emotionless tone.

The startled earth pony did not hesitate to comply, and dashed out of sight once on the roadway.

The terminator got the truck into gear and began accelerating towards the overturned truck.

"Come on, Night Lite! Come on!" Velvet pleaded as she saw the truck approaching.

In desperation, she managed to use her magic to pull Night Lite out of the truck.

They managed to get clear of the wreckage just in time as the terminator ran it over, shattering the crippled pickup.

The terminator quickly turned around as he saw them running off.

Night Lite collapsed to the ground, weakened by his bullet wound.

"DON'T STOP, RUN!" he ordered as Velvet continued her escape, the terminator in hot pursuit.

Night Lite desperately lit a pipe bomb and tossed in into a pipe next to the tank on the truck's trailer, diving for cover just after to avoid the imminent blast.

Twilight Velvet desperately galloped for her life as the terminator relentlessly pursued her.

Seconds later, the pipe bomb detonated, setting off the gasoline in the tanker's trailer, which was obliterated and engulfed in a raging inferno.

Seeing that the truck was destroyed, Velvet managed to take some time to catch her breath as she looked on.

The terminator, now covered in flames leapt out, only to collapse as the flesh on his body was consumed by the raging fire.

Velvet barely managed to prevent herself from vomiting as she slowly approached the fire, to see Night Lite approaching.

They fell into each other's arms and knelt down.

"We did it, Night Lite, we did it!" Velvet exclaimed in excitement.

As if Discord were watching the entire situation unfold, the now-fleshless terminator got up and stared at the two with his glowing red eyes.

Night Lite and Velvet's eyes grew wide as they got up. Velvet picked up a nearby metal bar and both of them started galloping away.

"No! No!" Velvet exclaimed. The terminator began to chase them as they ran towards a nearby building.

Velvet smashed the door's glass in with the bar and unlocked the door as the terminator began to close in.

The two ran inside and desperately searched for a place to hide.

She opened a heavy metal door and the two got inside, Velvet shutting the large door with the built-in heavy-duty latch as the terminator got close.

The terminator began to smash the door repeatedly to try and get in.

"Wait!" Night Lite said as he began flipping switches on a nearby control panel of some kind.

Instantly, various machines began activating as a result of Night Lite's actions. It didn't take long for them to figure out that they were in some kind of factory.

"What are you doing?" Velvet asked.

"Cover, so he can't track us!" Night Lite replied as he continued.

Velvet's eyes widened in horror as she saw the door begin to give way.

"Come on!" she pleaded. Night Lite tried to follow, but his bullet wound and the resulting blood loss took its toll and he collapsed to the floor.

"NIGHT LITE! COME ON! COME ON!" Velvet pleaded as she tried to get him up.

"Leave...leave me here." Night Lite said weakly.

Velvet saw that to door was about to give way and, with time running out, she got a rather crazy idea.

"Move it, Night Lite! On your hooves, soldier! ON YOUR HOOVES!" she ordered like a squad commander as she used her magic to pull him up.

They both ran into the maze of machines.

The terminator finally got through and began searching for his targets.

As Velvet and Night Lite searched for refuge, Velvet's hoof accidentally pressed a nearby button.

She ducked back as a hydraulic press came down and back up.

The terminator spotted this and moved towards it.

Velvet and Night Lite moved on, Night Lite grabbing a nearby steel bar as they did.

"Go back, go back!" Velvet said as they reached a stairway that would expose them.

They turned around and found themselves face-to-face with the terminator several yards away.

The terminator spotted them and closed in, forcing Velvet and Night Lite to back up, and onto the stairway.

"Run, Velvet!" Night Lite ordered. He had decided that he was going to make his last stand here, to protect her.

"No!" Velvet replied.

"RUN!" Night Lite ordered.

Velvet climbed down, out of the terminator's sight.

"RUN!" Night Lite ordered again and Velvet galloped away.

Night Lite then turned his attention to his adversary, now that Velvet was taken care of for the time being.

"Come on, motherfucker!" Night Lite said as he swung the metal bar, which smacked into the terminator's head.

He swung several more times with similar results.

The terminator them smashed his hand across Night Lite's face with lightning speed repeatedly, throwing him down.

Night Lite got out his last pipe bomb and quickly lighted it.

Velvet watched as Night Lite jammed the lit pipe bomb into the terminator's rear torso. He rolled away just seconds before the bomb detonated.

Twilight Velvet was knocked down by the concussion of the blast and the terminator's hind legs were blown off.

Velvet regained her senses and winced as she felt an intense pain in her left foreleg.

She yelped in pain as she tried to move.

She cringed as she used her magic to slowly remove a piece of metal that had been embedded in her leg.

She crawled over to the area where the blast occurred and found Night Lite lying motionless nearby.

'Oh, no! Oh dear, Celestia, please don't let him be dead!' She thought as she turned him over.

The look on his face was enough for her to realize that her worst fear had come true: Night Lite was dead, killed instantly by the pipe bomb going off.

"No...no!" she whimpered as her eyes began tearing up.

Her mourning was short-lived as the damaged terminator got up and began crawling towards her.

She jumped back as the crippled cyborg began reaching out towards her. She crawled away in desperation as the terminator began crawling towards her in a last-ditch attempt to get her.

They wound up on a conveyer belt, which Velvet got off several feet down and onto the bottom of the hydraulic press.

She crawled over to the other side, her movements restricted by the low clearance.

Desperately, she lowered a set of safety bars down as the terminator began reaching out towards her.

She looked and saw the controller for the hydraulic press. She reached for it as an idea came to her.

"You're terminated, fucker!" she said as she pressed the START button.

The press came down and began to crush the terminator. Blue electrical sparks began arching around as the terminator was being crushed by the powerful machine, which subjected the cyborg to many tons of pressure.

After several tense seconds, the now-flattened terminator's red eyes grew permenantly dark as his power system failed.

Velvet breathed a huge sigh of relief, thankful that it was over. She eventually heard sirens approaching and realized that help was on the way.

A few minutes later, Velvet was loaded on a stretcher.

She watched with sorrow as Night Lite's corpse was sealed in a body bag.

"Night Lite..." she whispered as she was taken away from the area.

Outside, she was loaded into a waiting ambulance.
