Chapter 5 Mommy?

“Let’s go.” Thunderstorm says.

Thunderstorm’s horn glows.

“Hail.” “Hail come in.” “Hail can you hear me?” “Cousin!” “Please Hail I already lost one cousin.” “I don’t need to lose two.” “Hail!!” Thunderstorm thinks.

“What’s wrong?” Rainbow Dash says.

Thunderstorm’s horn stops glowing.

“Nothing.” “Let’s move.” “Fluttershy.” He says.

“What?” Fluttershy says.

“Get beside Dashy.” Thunderstorm says.

“Ok.” She says and gets beside Rainbow Dash.

“Alright.” “I’ll be in the front of them.” “David I want you on the right side of them and I want Ratchet on the left of them and I want JT behind them.” “Be on your guard at all times if you’re not and they get hurt or worse…I can’t even explain what I’ll do to you.” “Now move out!” Thunderstorm says.

“Something is wrong or Thunder wouldn’t have put us on such high security.” “He’s not telling us something.” Rainbow Dash says.

“I’d rather not know anyway.” “I just want this nightmare to end.” “So many ponies are dead and dying.” “I just want it to end.” Fluttershy says.

“We all do Fluttershy.” He says and wraps his wing around her.

“We all do.” He says.

“Back in formation!!” Thunderstorm says.

“Sorry jeez.” David says.

“Help…me…..please.” A voice says.

“Yall stay here.” “I’ll check it out.” Thunderstorm says.

He walks away.

“He really shouldn’t walk off on his own like that.” David says.

“Thunder knows what he’s doing for a situation like this.” “Don’t worry.” Twilight says.

“Ok if you say so.” David says.

Where Thunderstorm is.

Thunderstorm walks up to a mare lying on the ground.

“Hang on.” “I can heal you.” Thunderstorm says.

“No…no you can’t.” She says and opens her hoofs revealing a filly.

“You’re a mother.” Thunderstorm says.

The mare nods.

Tears going down her cheeks.

“Take good care of her King Thunderstorm….please.” She says and kisses the filly on top of its head.

“No.” “Let me heal you please.” Thunderstorm says.

The mare lays her head down.

“You’re already too late.” “Take…good…..care……..of…………..her.” The mare says and her eyes slowly go lifeless.

The filly looks at her.

“Mommy?” The filly says.

Thunderstorm closes his eyes tight.

Tears pouring out.

“No.” He says.

“Mommy look at me.” “Mommy?” The filly says.

Thunderstorm looks at the filly.

“Mommy is sleeping sweetie.” “Let her rest.” “I’m going to keep you safe while mommy rests ok?” Thunderstorm says.

“Ok.” The filly says.

“Get on my back sweetie.” Thunderstorm says.

The filly hops onto his back.

Thunderstorm walks away.

“Bye mommy.” The filly says.

Thunderstorm stops and looks back at her then continues walking.

Where the others are.

Thunderstorm walks up.

“T….Twilight.” He says.

Twilight walks up to him.

“What is it Thunder?” Twilight says.

“Could you take this filly please.” Thunderstorm says.

“Sure Thunder.” Twilight says.

Thunderstorm levitates the filly onto Twilight’s back.

“B…But I thought you were…” The filly says.

“Let’s go everypony.” Thunderstorm says.

3 miles later.

Twilight walks up beside Thunderstorm.

“Thunder.” She says.

“What?” Thunderstorm says.

“She wants to be with you.” “I don’t know what happened or why she’s here because all she’ll say to me is I want Thunderstorm.” Twilight says.

Thunderstorm stops walking.

“I found Scootaloo dead.” “My own daughter.” “I don’t need another and I sure as hay aint her daddy.” Thunderstorm says.

The filly is shaking on Twilight’s back.

Twilight looks at her then at Thunderstorm.

“Please Thunder.” Twilight says.

Thunderstorm looks at the filly.

“Fine.” “Get on kid.” Thunderstorm says.

The filly jumps onto his back and hugs his neck shaking.

Thunderstorm sighs.

“Let’s go.” He says.

5 miles later.

“Where’s mommy?” The filly says.

“Mommy isn’t coming sweetie.” Thunderstorm says.

“Why?” “Did I do something?” The filly says.

Thunderstorm stops walking.

“No sweetie….you did nothing.” “Mommy loves you very much and she’s waiting for you somewhere very nice and wonderful.” “You’ll see her again one day.” “I promise.” Thunderstorm says.

“Ok.” The filly says.

Tears go down her cheeks.

Thunderstorm stops walking.

“Ok.” “We’ve been walking and dealing with a lot of crap for awhile now.” “We should stop and get some rest.” He says.

"It's not smart to rest with Necromorphs around." David says.

“We’ll be fine.” “They’re not in this area.” Thunderstorm says.

“Right now they aint.” David says.

“We’ll be fine.” Thunderstorm says.

“Ook.” David says.

Thunderstorm lies up against a tree.

Rainbow Dash lies down against the tree beside him.

She closes her eyes and goes to sleep.

Thunderstorm closes his eyes.

The filly snuggles into him.

Thunderstorm opens his eyes and looks at her in shock.

She closes her eyes and smiles.

Thunderstorm smiles.

“Night angel.” He says and closes his eyes and goes to sleep.
