I smiled.

The gun fired, but not at me. No, Tank slammed into the Titan, the gun firing into the crowd. The crowd scattered and ran, screaming. I blinked in shock and decided to take down the Titan. I piled onto the Titan, Tank smashing his head in. I helped and eventually the Titan lay limp on the ground. I struggled for the pistol, galloping towards it. Guards stepped into view, firing their pulse rifles. I ran behind a crate, their guns slowly eating at my cover. I bit my lip and looked around. I spotted Tank on the far right, mouthing 'what`s the plan?'

I peeked over the crate, almost getting my head blasted off in the process. I saw Mystic firing space magic at us, their radius almost hitting us. I locked my vision onto the pistol and exhaled. I jumped over the crate, the Guards and Mystic firing at me. I dodged most of them, but one shot struck me in my left hindleg. The pulse round was eating away my fur and eventually my flesh. I hissed through my teeth and kept running. I slid under a guard and punched him right in the gut along the way. I was behind them and snatched the pistol with my teeth. I shot the guard I punched, turning him into ashes.

"Just surrender, Deadshot!" I heard the pale mare yell. I ignored her and kept fighting, firing. I pulled the trigger and the gun clicked. Dammit! I powered my holographic dagger and charged. I sliced through three guards in a matter of seconds. They disintegrated into a pile of ashes. I smiled and galloped towards Mystic. She looked shock as I tackled her, sending us both over the railing. I punched her in the air, she trying to fight me back.

We hit the ground, me landing on my back and her on her face. I walked over to her, grabbing her by the mane. I dragged her to a wall and pinned her against it.

"Why?! Why the execution?!" I shouted in her face. She simply just looked down. I raised my hoof to strike, but... I couldn`t. She looked up at me and I dropped her. I did this all the time. Did I care about her? Do I feel bad for her? I shook my head and got to the task at hoof. I left her there, trying not to think about it.

I looked up at the broken railing and the tall wall that was supporting it. I sighed and tried extending my wings. I hissed in pain, as I realized they were still broken. Gee, thanks Tank. They settled back in place and I scanned around. A big air duct came into view and I smiled. Popping open the hatch, I crawled inside and let the small corridor lead me to freedom.

Yeah, Freedom. I looked down a hole and saw a guard armoring up. I looked past him and found the holy grail of armories. I grinned and kicked the hatch. The hatch hit the ground, bonking the guard in the head; and in response knocking him unconscious. I dropped down and spinned around. I stopped when I saw my gear. Its like I was a filly on Hearts Warming Eve.

I slipped on my hood, my cape connecting to it. I hatched on my mask, the visor having a small crack in it. I found my holster empty, much to my disappointment. I dug through as much as I could take, ammo, weapons, and whatever healing supplies I could find. I found Tanks stuff, and decided that Id bring it to him. Maybe, he wont kill me if I do. I slipped it into my saddlebags and finding its temporary home.

I jumped up into the air, latching onto the hatch with my hooves. I pulled myself up and back into the small air duct. I started crawling towards another hatch on the other side of the air duct. My hoof slipped and I fell through the duct. I landed on a guard patrolling, her back being crushed by my weight.

I jumped up and found out she was unconscious. Well, easier for me. I stripped her of ammo and dragged her body to a closet full of cleaning supplies. Another thing they have to clean up. I shut the door and locked it. Don`t want to have guards surrounding me everywhere in every direction, after all.

I sneaked down the hall, keeping to the wall. Talking came into my range of hearing and I tried to focus on it. "They are escaping, Mystic!" I heard a slam and a long sigh. I peeked around the corner to see a Titan and Mystic, both standing around a table.

"Im sorry sir, but the Hunter pinned me down and we dont know where the Titan is." At least Tank got out. I slid out my knife and felt along the blade. Yup, still sharp. I readied it and charged. I flipped over the table, slamming into the Titan. We broke through the wall, me perfectly unharmed.

I jumped up, to be tackled immediately. The Titan pushed me onto my stomach, cuffing my forelegs behind me. So much for escaping. I grunted and wiggled around. I was pulled to the wall by the Titan, Mystic standing behind him. "How`d you escape?" I grunted some more while I tried getting out of his lock.

He punched me right in the muzzle. Didn`t do much, considering I still have my mask. Speaking of my mask. He ripped off my hood, the mask with it. My teal mane folding out behind it. I smiled and he punched my now exposed muzzle. I spit out some blood onto his face, he covering his face with his free hoof.

"It`s called an air duct." I said with a sarcastic tone. I really did not want to be in this situation right now. He looked down in anger, then spotted my spare dagger. Oh shit...

He unsheathed it. The blade shimmering in the hanging light in the room. I looked down at my stomach as it slowly entered my belly. I hissed in pain, blood gushing through gaps. He smiled and pulled it out. He smashed it right into my left wing. I screamed in agony, my already broken bones making way for another wound.

He let go, the dagger hanging me by my wing. I tried reaching for it, my hooves a few inches short. Tears filled my vision, some already streaming down my face. Mystic looked at me, her hoof hiding her from the horror in front of her. Blood speared out of my mouth, leaking down my muzzle. The Titan pulled out the dagger, holding it firmly in his metallic hoof. I looked down at my burnt leg and touched it. Oww, still hurts.

He jabbed into it, the decaying flesh punctured. The dagger was pulled out and raised for another strike. The dagger was shanked back in, mutilating it completely. My eyes widened, to the point where I thought my eyeballs were gonna pop out their sockets .Well, I`m dead. Mystic slammed into the Titan, tackling him. Her hoof powered and witnessed his face burning before my eyes.

She stood up from the melting flesh of the dead stallion. She walked over and picked me up, placing her on my back. "Why...Save me?" I barely coughed up. Blood splatted onto her pale coat.

"It`s what friends do." She said glancing back at me with a smile. I gave a bloodied smile. She turned back and continued walking. Blackness started forming in the edges of my vision. Eventually, I gave in and let unconscious take me...

"Mommy, we`re gonna be late!" I yelled at my mom. We were going to the Grand Galloping Gala in the City! I jumped around on my hooves at the thought. My dress is really pretty!

"Hold on honey, Im doing my make up." She said back, still looking into the mirror. I frowned and jumped onto my bed, trotting to the opened window. I looked out at the green grass and rivers. I smiled and hummed silently. The radio station played all kind of cool songs! Like Winter Wrap Up and Raise this Barn! Mommy said we can listen to music while were home.

I turned around and half expected Mommy done, but no. This wasnt Mommy! This was some big robot! It disappeared and in its place was six ponies. One was cyan and had a rainbow mane, another had pink hair and had a yellow coat. Two unicorns, one purple and the other white with a high class mane. And finally, was two earth ponies, the former had poofy pink hair and the latter had an orange coat, her mane covered by a cowpony hat.

My body turned into my mature state. My teal mane growing and grey coat darkening. My cutie mark appeared: A glowing orb. It was silver and blue, lines swirling around it. I looked to the six ponies and the purple unicorn stepped up, and spoke. "You may be wondering who we are and why we are in your dreams?" I blinked in confusion.

"See, were the ponies who created the Last City and in your time, its in danger. The Fallen, Cabal, Vex, and Hive are closing in. There`s only one thing that can prevent the city from falling: The Core."

"What is the Core?" I asked, trying to remain calm.

"The Core is the power we used to create the City. After we died, the Core was lost and Nopony bothered to look for it." It sounded like there was dread in her voice. "And you`re the only one who can retrieve it." I was at a loss for words. Me. Of all ponies.

"How?" I asked in confusion.

"You are Rainbow Dashs descendant. See, the Core was connected by our Elements and you are on the family tree. There are six Elements: Magic, Laughter, Honesty, Loyalty, Generosity, and Kindness. Rainbow was Loyalty. Youre going to need to find the other five Elements. The Core will see the Elements are connected and you can collect it."

"The City will fall without it. Retrieve the Core. Save the City." I nodded and they slowly faded away.

I stood there, in the ethereal realm of nothing. The Core? The Elements? Why me? How come I`m the only pony who can do this? I stood there, until the world swirled away...

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

I awoke to feeling of pain. Seems like every morning. I leaned up and rubbed my head. Mystic looked down at me and there was somepony else...

"Welcome back to the land of the living." I stood up and looked over to the Titan. He pulled off his helmet and revealed that same cute stallion. I smiled and waved. He just glared at me before turning around, watching the door in front of us. I groaned and rubbed my hoof, or where my hoof would have been. It was replaced by a cybernetic part!

"Your pulse stopped while you were unconscious." Mystic said looking down at my now robot leg. I sighed and walked over to my mask on a table. I slipped it on, the hatches strapping in. The filter activated, sending fresh air into my mouth. I breathed it in and smiled. There was still the task of escaping...

"Why are you two helping me?" I said while strapping my saddlebags on. I turned my head a bit, looking at them behind a cracked visor.

"We`re fugitives. We mine as well work together." Tank said.

"Friends help each other." Mystic said with a smile.

"I didn`t know I was either of your friends."

"This world is filled with enough hate." Mystic said, giving a small smile. I always worked alone, Ever since my mother was murdered at the Grand Galloping Gala. I never considered having friends.

"We still have to escape." I said slipping on my hood. My suit was torn up ever since I fought Tank. I walked to the door and pulled out my revolver, the cylinder filled with bullets waiting to be dished out. I slapped the cylinder back in and cocked it. I opened the door and glanced down the dark hallway. I pressed my hoof to my visor, hoping to turn on my nightvision. It blinked and shut down. Dammit! It`s too damaged.

"It`s too dark, anypony have a light?" I said feeling my hooves along the wall, trying to navigate in the pitch black darkness.

"I do." Mystic held out her hoof, a small orb floating into the distance. It emanated light and stayed near Mystic. That was useful. I motioned for her to take the lead. Tank was behind me, his heavy-ass gun held on his back.

The Titans have a complicated system implicated into their suit, allowing them to carry and shoot weapons. I mean, Warlocks can use magic and I just hold them in my mouth.

Mystic stopped in front of a door and I moved to the right of the door. Mystic took the left and Tank stood in front of the door, ready to breach. I nodded and he kicked open the door. Tank stepped in, guns blazing. Me and Mystic stepped in after him, occasionally firing. A shot whizzed past me, another striking me in the chest. I took cover behind a table, flipping it over. I fired my revolver blindly behind cover, sometimes hitting somepony.

Tank stopped firing, and I took that everyone is dead. I hopped over, scavenging from the bodies. I went to touch a Pegasus, but my hoof flew back to me

Because youre Rainbow Dashs descendant, you can`t touch pegasi.

That`s stupid. I retracted and searched every other body. I saw a elevator, windows on each side of it. I pointed at it and they nodded. I stepped in and them after me. The doors closed and we started ascending.

"Everypony check their ammo. They`re sure to wait for us." My cylinder slid open. Four bullets. I slapped it shut, cocking it. The elevators door opened and Tartarus broke loose. We immediately ran behind a railing, returning fire along the way. I shot two shots into a guard, dropping to the ground as a lifeless, limp body.

My last two shots were ejected into a another guard. She dropped and I pulled out my cylinder. I started loading bullets in. One. Two. Three. Fou-

A Titan in silver armor tackled me, landing punches. I blocked as best as I could, responding with punches of my own. I reached for my revolver with my free hoof. Mystic kicked it over, it landing in my hoof. I grabbed it to the best of my abilities, placing against his head. I shot four bullets into him, his body falling limp on me. I pushed him off me and jumped back up.

I finished loading, slamming my cylinder shut. We fought for a while, until we ran out of ammo. My gun clicked. Tanks gun clicked. And finally, Mystics gun clicked.

"What are we going to do?" Tank asked me.

I looked around and spotted the elevator. I ran to it and pressed the button. Shit! They turned off the power! I ran back to Tank and Mystic, taking cover again.

"They turned off the power." I said trying to avoid dying.

"We got to turn it back on ourselves." Mystic said pointing at the power box behind the guards.

Of course. Everything has gotta be difficult. I peeked over and my visor counted the guards. Twenty- two. Hmm. I readied my holographic dagger and prepared my approach. A pale white hoof stopped me, though.

"What are you doing?" She said looking at my dagger.

"I`m gonna charge and turn it back on." I pushed her hoof away and galloped forward. I slid under a guard, stabbing him in the gut. I strafed from guard to guard, killing them with my 'Rainbow Dash'! I reached the power box, and I turned it back on. I went to walk, but I was stopped from unbearable pain. I looked down to see a shock sword sticking out of my chest, blood gushing out.

Tank rushed up, pounding the Titan to a bloody pulp. I dropped to the ground, blood pouring out of my un-seeable muzzle. Mystic galloped to me, dragging me to the elevator. She sat me down, pulling out several healing syringes. She ripped off my helmet, my hood with it. Blood stained my dark grey coat, my teal mane covering my eyes.

"G-G-Get out of here. L-Leave me." I spit out. Mystic ignored me, stabbing healing syringes into me. I slapped her hoof away and stood up. Mystic looked shock, to say the most. Tank ran back over, staring at me. Blackness surrounded my vision and I drifted back to the world of unconsciousness...

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

I flew through the sky, a rainbow trail behind me. I felt alive! I havent had freedom like this in forever! The wind slamming against me, its cool features calming me. The endless, free blue sky was my home!

I landed at a tree. Upon closer inspection, it`s actually a building! There was a door, and windows! I opened the door, revealing a library. Books upon books, littered the shelves. In front of the shelves, was a purple unicorn.

"Oh, good. You ready?" The unicorn asked.

"Yeah, as ready as I`ll ever be." My host said.

My host walked over to a small orb. It was glowing blue, it`s black exterior shimmering in the sunlight. The purple mare walked up, placing my cyan hoof over the orb. It glowed brightly, covering my host in bright blue swirls; twisting and turning around me.

After a couple of minutes, it stopped and my host felt stronger. She felt she could take on an Ursa Major! Twilight covered the orb with a magical field, placing it in a metal box.

"What did it do?" My host asked.

"It made us immortal, Rainbow." She said smiling.

"Imagine. We can live forever, like the princesses! We can bring the world some more light!"

Rainbow stared at the box. The power to make you immortal and was used on her. She would live forever. She would never age or even die.

"I already used it on Everypony else." Twilight said placing it under a secret door in the floor.

"Trust me, Rainbow. The world is going to be a better place with this." And with that, the world swirled away again...

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

My eyes popped open to the same position. Tank and Mystic were gone. The elevator was open. I stood up, rubbing my head. Those ponies were immortal. Princessess? Ugh, this is making my brain hurt. I walked over to the elevator, a holonote pinned to the glass.

Deadshot,
We had to leave. If you read this, we will get a indication noting us you`re alive. The City were closing in on us. Please, try not to die and Good Luck.
Sincerely,
Tank and Mystic.

I ripped it off and placed it in my saddlebags. I pressed the 'down' button, and the elevator shifted; moving after a few seconds. There was a buzzing and it kept getting louder and louder. I turned around and saw a dropship pointing its giant-ass guns at me. It fired, its missiles blowing the elevator off it`s tracks. I was flying around the elevator, plummeting towards the ground.

I escaped.
