Lightning Mist

What we had seen though the window was awful. The FAS Army (Fighters Against Sisters) was attacking our city. We saw

buildings on fire, army members brutally murdering the city's citizens, and The Manehatten troops who always try to protect the

city getting demolished. There was so much blood and flames that I couldn't keep myself together and I started to bawl.

"Mist It'll be okay! We can escape through the building's basement and get out of the city." Storm tried to explain.

"B-But Bro.." I stammered. "What'll happen to Mommy and Daddy?"

He looked at me with tears also in his eyes. In the six years I had lived with his I had never seen him cry

"They are Gone Lightning Mist. I'm sure they would've been home by now. The bakery is only a block from our building."

I sobbed even harder and tears started to fall down Storm's cheeks.

"WE HAVE TO ESCAPE MIST. WE HAVE TO LEAVE WHILE WE STILL CAN!" Storm yelled.

He grabbed my back with his mouth and started to run out of our little apartment.

He turned to the right and made way for the stairwell.

"I can run from here." I stated as me and him bolted swiftly down to the basement.

"I'm sure that there is a way to escape down here I just know it." My brother muttered to himself as we both scouted out the basement.

I ended up finding a small door with a ladder leading to what I believed to be the outside of the city.

I think I found it Storm!" I hollered.

He raced to the area I was at and we both started to climb up the long ladder. Halfway up I looked down

and started to get scared. What if I tripped and fell. What if hurt my back and died. I started shaking and tears welled up my eyes

again.

"I don't think I can do it Storm. I'm just too afraid." I said weakly.

"DON'T GIVE UP!" He yelled at me. "WE HAVE TO
ESCAPE. ITS WHAT MOM AND DAD WOULD WANT. THEY WOULD WANT US TO LIVE. WE HAVE TO KEEP GOING,"

That gave me enough strength to keep climbing. Once we had finally reached the top we realized we were above the shorelines.

The exit wasn't too far away.

"Can you fly yet Mist?" My brother asked me.

"Yes, but I'm not very good at landing yet." I told him.

"Well its better then nothing. Come on lets move the rest of the way through the sky."
Storm launched himself up into with a huge flap of his wings.

I quickly followed him. We were going quite high into the sky. Soon some fog started to appear and I lost

sight of Storm.

"Storm?..STORM?!" I yelled into the sky. No answer. I stopped and looked around. I saw his shadow. Thank

goodness,I sighed in relief . I started to follow Storm again but he was going downwards this time. Were we already outside the

city. As the fog lifted from my vision I saw myself flying right into the middle of Manhatten. I was following an FAS Army member

not Storm! I tried to turn around and look for him but I couldn't control my flying. I was going too fast. I decided to just keep going I

was high enough that no pony could attack me and I can just fly though the exit on lower ground. I kept staring straight ahead not

looking at the intense killing going on below me.

"Just keep Flying. Don't look down." I kept telling myself. "Storm is probably
already outside the city. I just have to be brave. Just this once I have to be-

Then I saw him. Storm. On the ground covered in holes and blood. He was dead.
