Corruption - The Run

Previous Chapter

*** Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash ran towards Sweet Apple Acres, hooves flying. They were wearing themselves out, especially because of the weapons they were holding. Pinkie had more than a big arsenal, and the two pegasi took as much as they could. They made a wild guess that Applejack wouldn't be a Death Bringer. Upon arriving, they noticed the place in shambles. The barn was missing boards, planks, supports, and everything it could be missing some of. Rainbow noticed something out of the corner of her eye. She didn't examine who, but she knew it was a pony. She grabbed Scootaloo and hid by the nearest bush. Scootaloo stayed down as Rainbow Dash examined. "Apple Bloom. Clean." She pulled Scootaloo from the bush and they both galloped over to her. Apple Bloom noticed them charging towards her, and uttered a shriek. She grabbed a twig from the ground to defend herself. "We're ok. Look at our eyes!" Scootaloo pointed out, speaking swiftly. Apple Bloom noticed the color, and dropped her weapon. "Girls... I need your help! PLEEEASE!" Apple Bloom asked, making puppy dragon eyes. "Yeah, we'll help... what's wrong?" Rainbow Dash asked, confused. "Well, um, I wanna go to Manehatten to save Babs!" She blurted out quickly. "Manehatten? She might be a Death Bringer, though!" "Yeah, but what if she's not? I want to take the risk." Apple Bloom was willing to be stubborn if it meant saving her cousin. Rainbow Dash admitted to defeat with a sigh, "Fine, fine. But we have to get the others first!" ***
