Remembering a grim past.
Meeting up with Storm.
Previous ChapterNext Chapter_________*the Manehatten fields*_______
High in the sky was the full moon.....while some found it beautiful one particular pegasus would never know.
As the night slowly passed a figure charged through the fields......a werewolf to be precise....that werewolf was Storm Blitz....former member of the Stalliongrad ritual team.
Storm kept charging.....when he had a scent he would not lose it......ever.
So Storm kept moving and eventually he stopped at an abandoned camp site and sniffed around.......upon finding the scent he howled and then charged in Scootaloo and Surprise's direction even if he did not know it....he also smelled two other scents.....one was as strong as the others but the fourth was faint.....no matter.
__________*the Greatwood forest*_________
Scootaloo landed on a tree branch and Surprise landed on one close to her and both of them were breathing heavily.
"So.....Surprise......where is that magic disrupter huh?" Scootaloo asked.
Surprise looked at Scootaloo and managed to get her breath under control as did Scootaloo.
"I see it.....I just have to put this unicorn down......its your turn now." Surprise said flying over to Scootaloo and then throwing the unicorn over her back getting a pained grunt from Scootaloo.
"Please hurry up." Scootaloo pleaded as the weight was getting to her.
Surprise nodded and then flew towards some tree sap and rubbed her hooves in it then flew towards Scootaloo and rubbed the sap over the unicorn's horn.
Scootaloo looked at Surprise in confusion. "Tree sap?......how is that a magic disrupter......besides......how did your hooves not get stuck in it?" Scootaloo asked.
Surprise smiled for a second before returning to a serious look. "It's special tree sap found only in these woods.....you see about three hundred years ago there were many forests containing this sap......only back then the unicorn's were oppressive and they burned down all of those forests......as a way to fight back the earth pony's and pegasi made this forest a national landmark so the unicorn's could not harm it.....the thing is this tree sap will be like lotion to earth pony's and Pegasi but to unicorn's it sticks to them........long story short of a unicorn try's to use magic with this sap on their horn.....it could prove fatal at worst.....at best they lose their horn.....also it will keep him unconcious until we wake him up." Surprise explained.
Scootaloo nodded in understanding.....then she and Surprise flew towards a nearby cave for shelter.
Surprise then walked towards Scootaloo and put a hoof on her shoulder.
"Scoot....there is more to this cave......up for some exploring?" Surprise asked.
Scootaloo smiled and nodded and so she and Surprise walked back through the cave.
_________*ten minutes later Greatwood Forest at Scootaloo and Surprise's hiding spot*________
Storm cautiously entered the cave......and began sniffing.....and smelled Scootaloo and Surprise's scent also the unicorn's scent......and faintly the mystery scent......he then howled one more time and charged through the cave.....unaware that the moon was almost down.
As Storm charged through the cave he heard some yelling......probably his prey......he then charged quickly through the cave tunnels and then he found the mystery scent......he saw an earth pony filly and he realized that the filly had a different scent then the mystery scent....but he found that the filly had two.......a changeling......he smirked and charged at blinding speed and drove his claw through the filly.....who then was engulfed by green flame.
The changeling coughed. "H.....how.....how did you......know?.....who are you......." The changeling paused as it saw what had attacked it.
"No....n...no it...can....can't be......your kind.....are....extinct.....w....we made sure of it......" The changeling managed to say before he succumbed to his wounds.
Storm smirked and let out a triumphant howl and then chased after his other prey.
_______*deep inside the cave*_______
Surprise was out of breath as she and Scootaloo reached another chamber in the tunnel system....only to discover a dead end.
"Oh no.....that means we...." Surprise trailed off as she dropped the unicorn and turned around.
To Surprise and Scootaloo's horror their path was blocked by Storm who was still In werewolf form.
Storm began to walk towards them slowly.
"Oh no....um Storm is that you?" Scootaloo asked causing Storm to stop.
Storm turned his head in confusion. "Err?" He grumbled.
Surprise leaned in towards Scootaloo. "Hey keep talking.....just buy time.....ok?" Surprise suggested.
"Um ok.......so Storm we would very much appreciate it if you did not eat us....or kill us....so....is that ok?" Scootaloo asked.
Storm snarled and resumed walking towards Scootaloo and Surprise.
"Ok....wrong thing to say......hey Storm want to hear a paradox?" Scootaloo said out of nowhere making Storm stop again.
Storm looked at her with confusion. "Err?" He grumbled.
Scootaloo gulped. "last chance" she thought. "Ok Storm here it is.......you can kill us but you can't harm us." Scootaloo said.
Storm lowered his head as he thought on it.
Scootaloo decided to get a better look at Storm.....his fur was now thick and now had pitch black mixed with his normaly discolored blood red coat.....his ears were longer and more pointed.......his teeth were large long and sharp.....and the rest of him was basically just like a wolf.
Storm suddenly clutched his head and began howling in pain.
Scootaloo gasped and her eyes began to water.
Storm then stopped and fainted.
Scootaloo and Surprise's jaws dropped at this......but Surprise almost fainted after she saw what was happening to Storm's body.
Storm's fur was shrinking.....more like retracting into his skin.....his teeth returned to normal and so did his ears and the rest of him.
A few moments later in place of Storm the wolf was Storm the pegasus.
Scootaloo noticed something then....while Storm dreamed his rear legs randomly twitched.
Storm woke up and turned around groggily. "Hey....Scootaloo?....what are you doing in my house?....and who is that?" He asked pointing at Surprise.
Storm then fell over again slowly regaining his focus.
______*one minute later*_______
Storm rubbed his eyes as he stood up and noticed Scootaloo and Surprise.....he then hit himself on the head a few times.
Scootaloo walked over to him slowly and then placed a hoof on his shoulder.
"Hey Storm are you ok?" She asked.
Storm chuckled and grinned like a madpony. "Are you kidding this is great!.....I didn't know you had a special someone!......also I did not know you were a fillyfooler.....but that's ok." He said happily then changed both his eyes to green.
Scootaloo went red with embarrassment. "Uh...I...I am not!" She yelled at Storm who was now rolling on the ground laughing.
"You are lying......i don't need my green eyes to tell you that.......besides you would be lying to yourself if you said you we not attracted to.....I'm sorry what was your name?" Storm asked Surprise.
"Oh me....I'm sorry my name is Surprise." She replied.
Storm smirked. "You would be lying to yourself if you said that you were not attracted to Surprise......Scoots.....ok that's enough of that come on we have to get back to Ponyville so that you two lovebirds can have some private time." He teased while picking up the unconscious unicorn then walked out of the chamber leaving a blushing Scootaloo and a giggling Surprise behind him.
Surprise walked up to Scootaloo.
"Come on we should get going." Surprise said waking out of the chamber.
Scootaloo's wings then shot open. "Oh no.....Storm was right.......I'm attracted to Surprise!" Scootaloo said to herself in panic while blushing.
Scootaloo then gulped and ran out of the cave but a peculiar thought entered her mind. "wait.....why would Surprise want to come with us?" Scootaloo thought.
________*outside the cave five minutes later*_______
Surprise stretched out her wings and gave off a sigh of relief. "Oh yes....it feels so good not to have to carry that unicorn anymore.....how about you Scoot?" She asked.
Scootaloo stretched as well. "Yep now we can see who that unicorn is." She added.
Storm nodded and put the unicorn down and widened his eyes. "Um Scoot...Surprise we should untie him wake him up and knock him out again then go home." He said plainly.
Scootaloo walked over to the unicorn and gasped.
Surprise walked over and turned her head in confusion. "I don't get it who is he?" She asked.
Storm looked at her and sighed.
"This....Surprise...is captain of the royal guard Shining Armor.....brother to the element of magic and we just kidnapped him." Storm replied.
Surprise gasped and then backed away. "Oh my gosh.....oh no I am so so sorry but it was self defense I swear." She said stated.
Storm chuckled. "On no it's fine come on help me untie him." He said starting to pull on Shining Armor's bonds.
Scootaloo put a hoof on Storm's shoulder and shook her head while chuckling. "It's ok I got this." She said switching into tiger form and cutting the ropes.
Storm stared at Scootaloo and then laughed. "Yes! I knew it I knew I was not the only strange one here!" He cheered.
Scootaloo raised an eyebrow at Storm.
"Come on let's go.....someone will find him." Storm said walking towards Ponyville.
"Hey what happened to waking him up and then knocking him out again!" Scootaloo yelled.
"No point lets go." Storm replied.
Surprise and Scootaloo signed and then followed Storm who began singing his favorate song.
_________*thirty minutes later outskirts of Ponyville*_________
Storm.....Surprise and Scootaloo all walked towards Ponyville and Storm had stopped singing.
Scootaloo and Surprise sighed in relief....and then shuddered. "Hey Surprise....why are you coming with us to Ponyville anyway?.....I mean wont your parents be concerned about you disappearing?" Scootaloo asked.
Surprise's usally happy look was replaced by one of sorrow. "No....no they won't......they will never be concerned about me." She said sadly.
Scootaloo draped her wing over Surprise. "Hey....um I'm sorry....I did not mean to.......you know bring up a touchy subject." She apologized.
Surprise smiled and then draped her own wing over Scootaloo.
"It's fine....besides I did not mean they were bad parents it's just that....well they aren't with us anymore." She said.
Scootaloo got the message and decided not to prod.
Storm however chuckled for a while before turned towards the two filly's. "Hey Surprise, Scootaloo, I know what we could do." He started.
Scootaloo and Surprise raised an eyebrow at him.
"What?" They both said in unison.
Storm grinned like a madpony and got in between the two filly's. "We could form a trio called the w.o.t." He said.
"The what?" Scootaloo asked.
"Ugg....the werewolf...the orphan and the tiger....the w.o.t....you know....or the S team?" He suggested.
Scootaloo and Surprise looked at eachother and giggled. "Option two." They said in unison.
Storm grinned and then cheered. "Ok then......the S team it is.......but first....lets go home my legs are killing me." Storm said taking off towards Ponyville.
Surprise gave Scootaloo a quick kiss then took off. "Last one there is a rotten egg!" Surprise shouted.
Scootaloo's wings shot open again as she realized what just happened.....she then smirked and took off after her brother and her friend.
"You are so on!" Scootaloo shouted.
For this trio of Pegasi their story was just beginning.
