The Fighter

At the door there stood a Pegasus named Misty. Misty lay on the ground bawling. Next to her Healing Hooves stood. Defender and Last Standing rushes forward; they didn't like seeing sad ponies.

"What a cry baby." One of the popular kids says.

"I would agree with you on that, but this morning she got sent on a mission with Firefly. He is not here so I assume that something bad happen to him." Rose says.

"Misty what happened?" Last Standing asks gravely.

"It-"

"Misty, just go. I'll tell him all of it. You shouldn't say it. It will make you feel tons of renewed pain." Healer Hooves says. Misty ran out of the room with eyes on her. "You all Probably want to hear this.This morning we sent Misty and Firefly got sent to stop a cockatrice. They didn't have a plan so they hided behind some bushes. Suddenly Firefly tackled the monster and got turned to stone. The beast threw Firefly at Misty. It knocked her out. When she woke the beast was gone. Then she came here."

The room grew silent. Defender and Last Standing both had looks of surprise.

`"Ponyvile needs protecting." Last Standing says. "In a few minutes I'll send a crew."

"No." Defender says strongly. "They can handle themselves." There was a long pause then Last Standing replied.

"Fine." He says as sharp as a knife. Then the room started to buzz again.

"Poor Firefly." One of the popular kids says.

"That's the hard part about being a hero." Rose responds.
