The One
Chapter 21
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"APPLEJACK!!!" I jumped over the behemoth and saw her. She was screaming because a pool of that liquid had washed over her feet, burning them. I quickly pulled her away from it the puddle, and put her in piggyback. Then, it was instinctual: A sprint for Twilight.
"Twilight!" I ran in, looking around frantically. Applejack had passed out from pain, so it was extremely worrisome. "What is it?" She came over and asked calmly. I showed her Applejack. "Dear Celestia! Get her over here right away!" With that, I sprinted after Twilight. I laid Applejack down on a table next to her. "Is she going to be okay?" "I don't know, but I need full concentration on the point to heal it, if I can." She started to go to work, and Rarity approached, concerned. "Dear, your hands are burnt as well. Let me take a look at them." She slowly approached. I thought about yelling at her to get away, but I decided to just let her do it. It wouldn't hurt much, would it?
She looked at it for a moment, took it to a table with me, and then got out a really big first aid kit. Disinfectant, scapel, tweasers, the works. But worse. It looked as though I might have though that she was a doctor, other then the fact that I knew better. "Hey, is it gonna hur--- Fuck!" I yelled, as she stuck in a pain killer. I never understood that. They are pain killers, yet they hurt like hell going in. "Oh, I'm sorry, but it's gonna hurt a little..." She said, putting a small bandage over the incision and putting a little antibacterial rub on my hands. "You're a really good doctor... Thank you." She suddenly perked up quickly. "It's no problem! Not at all!" She looked really happy to help. I appreciated it.
We heard a loud bang, and Pinkie and Trixie came flying through the door. "What was that?" Rainbow asked, obviously wanting to be a part of the action. "Rainbow, not the time." I said. "We want to stay out of trouble, not get in it. I say we all need to leave anyway. We aren't strong enough to beat whatever is in here... And I want to check something out. It's been bothering me lately... Anyway, Trixie, what was that?" "There was some huge creature... It... Fired it's arm... At us..." She was gasping for breath. "Wait. Let me see." She pulled away from Applejack, who looked a lot better, and pulled out a book on what seemed to be black magic. She flipped through a few pages, and I saw the creature from before. "Twilight! That page! The big yellow creature! That's it!"
"The... Dark Belra? Wow... We are up against a lot more danger than we thought."
