chapter 4:vampire vs lycan

Time has passed quickly for scootaloo as she prepares for her fight with the shadow lycan, at day she practiced her combat as a mortal by doing a regular work out,she would drink blood during school when she is alone, and at night she works on her powers and her other abilities. This was how her days went by,but now the day for her fight is tonight.

It was the afternoon and scootaloo was using the time to relax with sweetie belle at the park sitting on the bench

"Hey,can I ask you something?" Sweetie bell asked softly

"You just did" scootaloo said with a smirk causing sweetie belle to roll her eyes

"Have you ever have to fight anything like this werewolf things"

"Lycan," scootaloo corrected" and I fought a lot of monsters back in manehatten" she said looking at the families going through the park

"Were you alone the whole time?" Sweetie belle asked worried

"Mostly, but I had some friends that helped sometimes" scootaloo admitted looking back towards her time in manehatten that she had her friends help.

"But I never felt so alone anymore when I moved to ponyville, because of one reason" she said with a small smile on her lips.

"What was it?" Sweetie bell asked with curious eyes on her friend

Scootaloo turned her head to face sweetie belle, her smile growing bigger

"I met you" she said, her smile giving off a sense of genuine happiness. Hearing this made sweetie belle blush slightly with a smile.

"Yeah, I feel the same way, I remember the day we met" sweetie belle said, changing her focus from her friend and towards the sky, scootaloo doing the same.

"Yeah, I'll never forget that day" she said looking at the sky as the clouds went by.


It was now night time and scootaloo was standing at the edge of the everfree forest, waiting for the lycan to appear so that the fight would start. A few minutes latter a unicorn stallion with black fur and deep blue mane and tail.

"So this is your pony form" scootaloo stated with a matter-o-fact tone.

"I see you brought the unicorn that was watching our last encounter" he said eyeing the pony that was standing a few feet behind scootaloo.indeed sweetie belle had come to watch the fight despite scootaloo's objections' "she will be a good desert once I finish with you" he added with a dark smirk on his lips, flashing his canine teeth.

"Your not laying a finger on her you mutt" scootaloo said her eyes turning red.

"Well see" was all the stallion said before he began his transformation,his hands growing bigger and nail growing longer and more sharp on his hands and feet, his whole body growing bigger and more bulky as his skeletal structure morphed, his eyes turning a sickly red a few shades darker than scootaloo's. Scootaloo's cutie mark glowed exactly the same way it did when scootaloo was showing sweetie belle and rarity signaling her transformation.

"Bring it on " scootaloo challenged

The lycan charged and tried to swipe at scootaloo but she dogged by jumping to the left, she then delivered a right hook to the head then a round hose kick to the gut sending the lycan sliding back a few feet, he ran back at her ready for another swipe, she jumped the right to dogged, but just as soon as she did the lycan disappeared and reappeared behind scootaloo and punched her with his left fist sending her soaring about twenty feet away.

(Damn, he faster than I thought) scootaloo Thought as she got back on her feet

"What's wrong, too fast for you?" The lycan taunted

"Heh, I'm just warming up" scootaloo stated before charging back in. She moved more quickly than before and kneed the lycan in the gut and knock the wind out of him, she then punched him in the face knocking him on his back. She then used night shatter, the shadow like blades arched downwards so they would be heading directly towards the shadow lycan, the impact was strong enough to make an explosion of dust.

"Heh, told you" gloated scootaloo. But then, she felt something collide with her back followed by an intense pain, the impact made scootaloo fly through the air and skid on the ground, she stoped right next to sweetie belle who was watching all of this silently.

"Scootaloo!" She shouted worriedly to her friend, she then turned back to see what had caused the sudden attack. When she did her eyes widened as they fell upon the lycan her friend had tried to finish with the latest attack.

"Nice try, but your not the only one with tricks" boasted the lycan as he got ready to fire his shadow blast.

"Scootaloo we have to move get up" sweetie belle said as she tries to shake her friend awake, but scootaloo shows no sign of getting back up.

"Now I'll finish you off and afterwards that unicorn is next!" The lycan shouted as his attack is ready. "I'll be sure to savor her as I listen to her cries for mercy" he added cruelly before he fired his attack. It soared towards the two with great speeds, but to sweetie belle it was moving slow at a point that she had only one thing to say with a tear dropping from her chin to the unconscious scootaloo's cheek.

"Scootaloo!!!" Was all she cried out before the blast had reached then and she closed her eyes, bracing herself for the pain. However, it never came, the only thing she feels is a brief sense of motion and a pair of strong arms carrying her. She opens her still teary eyes and see a face with orange fur and an purple mane, and a pair of red eyes.

"Scootaloo!" Sweetie belle said happily to see her friend is alright. Scootaloo puts her down gently on the ground and looked at her tearerd filled eyes with a caring smile.

"Sweetie belle, I'm gonna finish this fight, so please don't cry anymore" scootaloo said softly as she wipes away the tears in sweetie belle's eyes, all.Sweetie belle did is nod her head with a smile on her face.

"I don't know how you both dodge my attack but the next one will get you for sure" said the lycan as he watches all this before him in a confident tone, but it was soon turned to fear when the vampire turned to face him and he saw her eyes, they were glowing with intense power and anger.

"You dare attack someone that is precious to me" stated scootaloo as she was now glowing with an crimson aura.

"But most of all" she said clenching her fists and the glow intensified, as if responding to the vampire's growing anger.

"You made sweetie belle cry!!!" She yelled with a furious voice. The lycan sensing the danger was about to flee, but before he could even move a claw scootaloo appeared in front of him with her aura still shinning around her.

"For that, your dead!" Announced scootaloo as she punched the lycan with her right glowing fist, the power behind it was intense that the lycan was.sent flying miles away until he hit a massive boulder, making a crack in it with his blood smeared on it as his head hung lifelessly. After a few minutes the glowing around scootaloo disappeared as she relaxed her body.

"Scootaloo that was amazing!" Cheered sweetie belle as she runs up to scootaloo with a big smile on her face " how did you do that glowing thing by the way?" she asked

"Well to be honest I don't know, I just saw you crying because of that lycan and felt really angry, then felt a strange power burst out." Admitted scootaloo as she scratched her head confusedly as she looked at where the lycan was sent towards. She then feels a pair of arms around her and turned her head to see, she sees sweetie belle hugging her as she quietly cries.

"I was so scared, I thought you would die and what that wolf said" she stopped to let out a sob out of her throat. She then feels the other mare hugging her back with both arms and wings.

"I'm not that easy to kill you know, and as long as I still breath I will always protect you" said scootaloo with a caring smile on her face, sweetie belle blushed at hearing that last part but smiled all the same.

"Lets go" scootaloo said softly as she picks sweetie belle up bridal style and flew them both through the night sky with the moon shining on them.

Hearing scootaloo promise to protect her and seeing the pegasus in the moonlight sweetie belle now feels like her friendship with scootaloo has grown deeper.

Or,could it be more than friendship?
