Unexpected Pegasus Love 2

In a field, not far from Ponyville, the whole family was having so much fun together. It was a big friendly game of hide n seek for the whole family to enjoy. Rumble himself wished that the fun would last forever, but alas, he knew it would not last for eternity.

But he didn't really care, 'cause he knew that it will be fun while it lasts

As they were all hiding in many places, it was Cloudchaser who was the one who needed to find the rest of her family. Snickering, Rumble was hiding in a large bush, and when he saw that Cloudchaser was not looking at him, it gave him the opportunity to race to the safe stool, which was a small, burnt tree that was strike by lightning during a storm not too long ago, probably about a week prior to this day

With a really quick spurt, Rumble hurriedly flew into the knoll and hit the tree where it was standing high on.

It didn't take long before the parents to come to the safe point, and the Thunderlane, and Flitter. Cloudchaser quickly got a look at them, and was racing to try and tag anyone. Turns out that she was flying faster than Flitter and touched her back

"Gotcha!" Cloudchaser laughed triumphantly. Flitter pouted and then she crossed her arms together while hovering in mid-air.

"Aw no fair."

"Ah come on, Flitter. You know that I am a faster flyer than you." Cloudchaser remarked.

Flitter made a small smirk as if her disappointment had immediately disappeared like a phantom or a supernova of some kind, and she laughed with her. "Okay, okay. I'll count."

"You're counting, Flitter? How many?" Pip asked her curiously.

"Probably up to twenty or thirty."

"She'll probably count way more than me." The elder sister teased. "She is a little slow she. It comes to counting, anyway."

"Oh stop it." Flitter playfully scolded. "Like you are so perfect?"

"Come on, I'm just teasing ya, sis." She gave her younger sister a gentle elbow jab on the left side of her body.

Flitter smiled warmly, and said "I know I know."

"Okay, this should be fun." Said Lightning Strike. "Come on family, can we please get back to the game? I desperately want to have fun."

Stormy Wind made a cute giggle and said "yes, we really want to play some more."

"Just like old times, eh mom?" Thunderlane said

"Totally. I can even remember you as a young colt when we would play hide n seek in the clouds all the time when you lived with us in Cloudsdale."

"Okay, here it goes." Said Flitter. She closed her eyes by crossing her arms while laying her head on them as she started on one

Rumble laughed playfully and hurriedly went to find a good hiding spot so that Flitter would not find him somehow. The parents found two large clouds that looked like a good spot for them to hide.

Thunderlane went to hide inside an old tree through a large gapping hole that looked like a woodpecker was jabbing at with it's beak for hours.

For Cloudchaser, she found a small cave completely filled with darkness, except for the sunlight shining from the outside.

Rumble was still looking for a good hiding spot, for it wouldn't be long before Flitter would be done counting, she could stop at twenty or thirty, for what he truly know was, he has to act swiftly.

He decided to go a little deeper into the woods, but not so far since it would lead to the Everfree forest. Finally, he found a large cave-like structure that looked perfect, and he giggled when he stepped inside.

"Hmm, the wall seems a little... weird." He thought to himself. "It feels like... hair. It still, it's a good hiding spot." Then he kept quiet as he laid himself on the rocky ground, waiting for Flitter to come by so he can slip past her like a snake or a worm would do in tight spaces.

It took a little long, and he waited for almost a long time. While still crouching, he felt som type of wind blowing against him, possibly just the breeze, nothing more.

"Hmm, must be my imagination." He muttered to himself with a smirk and a raised eyebrow, then he darted his eyes to and fro for aflitter to show up, but he still doesn't see her go by this place.

Just then, he felt another touch of wind blow against him softly like a cold chill. Becoming a little more nervous, Rumble didn't know what to do, and he tried to keep telling himself it was nothing so bad or serious, and it was just the wind once again.

Trying to let go of that fear, he suddenly felt somewhat gentle knife or sword-like thing gently touching his small body.

Gulping and completely paralyzed with fear, Rumble slowly turned around and saw three sets of eyes looking at him with a color of yellow and possibly evil. "Hello." Said a demonic voice. "What is a cute little colt like you doing out here in the woods?"

"Oh dear. Are you lost little guy?" Asked voice in mock sympathy, and it sounded like... a sheep or a goat, or a bleating similar to those two types of animals.

"Yessss, you musssst be all alone here." Hissed another voice that sounded like a woman's tone.

Looking back, the creature revealed itself to be a Chimera, and Rumble's heart was beating like a drum now, and began shaking. He always heard stories about a Chimera and the deniers it poses in Cheerilee's class a year ago.

"Ummm- umm." He stammered "I'm not lost... I was just playing hide n seek with my family, that's all. I... I'm sorry, I didn't know that you were sleeping here. If you want I can just leave and forget that this ever happened in the first place.

The colt was about to escape, but then the tiger used her paw to pull Rumble close to her, like some kind of cub or a teddy bear. "Come on, sweetie." Said the goat head. "It's okay, we love 'extra company'. Right sisters?"

"Right."

The body felt so warm like a heating blanket, but Runble knew that this could be trouble for him.

"It issss a fun game, issssn't it?" Said the snake tail.

"Umm, uh-huh."

"I thought so." Said the tiger. Then she gently stroked his head with her front paw as if Rumble was a pet to her. "Tell us, what is your name, little one?"

"My name is... Rumble."

"Ooh." The goat bleated. "That is a very adorable name. Well Rumble, we are ever so glad that you came to us in here. You saved us the trouble from being so lonely."

Rumble was a little confused by this, but it was obvious what a vile creature like this Chimera would do to him.

"And we should probably tell you that we haven't eaten anything in... a few days now."

It made Rumble sick to his stomach, and desperately wanted to get out of this monster's grasp. "Well, have you hunted a deer or a pig before?" He asked them with a few drops of sweat dripping from his face.

All three of the heads laughed "That issss the problem, my sisterssss and I can never agree on what kind of food to feed from." Said the snake.

"Except for Pie, but... you wouldn't be able to have any Pie on you, would ya?" Said the tiger.

"Uhh, no."

"Just as we thought," the goat sighed.

"Anyway, I really think I should go now." Then Rumble tried to escape once more, but it was yet again to no avail.

The goat head used a tiger paw to stop him from doing so. "Don't worry, Rumble." Said she. "We would love you to stick around for dinner." And then they all sneered at him

"What is on the menu?"

"Colt kabob." Said all three heads. Rumble gulped, and of course they meant him, and he could hardly move at all, for he was too scared and paralyzed to try and move an inch of his legs

"Any last words before we.... feast?" Said the tiger.

"Is that another colt right behind you?" Rumble pointed. All three of them immediately let him go and moved their heads to the direction the colt was pointing, looking back, Rumble made a quick spurt of speed out of that small cave.

"Get him!" Said the goat head.

As the monster went after him, the colt suddenly felt his wings getting a little tired from all of that flying instead of running, and decided to go on foot. After all, since he was a small colt, it might be difficult for them to look for him.

He was just about to make it to the fields, but then he felt something knock him out to the ground and rolled down a small hill. Slightly covered in dust, the beast suddenly jumped and the tiger stamped a paw on his body.

"Nice try, but not good enough." The tiger taunted. All three of them were about to eat Rumble whole and alive when they heard a voice

"Leave him alone, you monster!!" They all looked and it was Cloudchaser, Thunderlane, Flitter, and the parents all coming to his aide. "I said let him go!!" She said

"We'll have you all in our teeth!" Said the goat.

"Dibssss on the large ssstallion with a lightning bolt on hissss flank." Said the snake.

They all fought on the creature while Rumble took a step back in a safe distance. All of them were all pounding on the monster for al lost trying to eat one of their own.

"Leave and never come back!" Cloudchaser said after she broke the tiger's nose.

"Okay! Okay!" Said the goat. "Come on, let's get out of here!" Then the Chimera went off and it was gone.

All of them turned to Rumble, with Cloudchaser rushing to comfort him. "Rumble, are you okay?" She asked "we were so worried about you."

"I'm fine." Rumble panted. "Thanks to all of you." He smiled, but then he slowly began to break down into tears, and softly wept in his wife's chest, with her hugging him, "he tried to-"

"Shhh, it's okay, Rumble. I'm here." Cloudchaser soothed him tenderly while hugging him. "That monster's gone.

"Yeah son, everything will be okay. I promise." Said Lightning Strike.

"Guys, I'm sorry if I was in danger."

"It wasn't your fault." Said Stormy Wind.

"Yeah, we didn't know that a Chimera was here either." Flitter added. "We're just glad that you're okay."

"Yeah, I didn't know what I would do without you." Said Thunderlane.

Then all of them joined the group hug. "I love you guys." Said Rumble gratefully with a smile.

"We love you too, Rumble." They all replied to him.

"Come on, I think we have had enough hide and seek for one day. Why don't we go get some pizza together?" Said Cloudchaser.

All of the. Agreed with her and went to the Ponyville pizzeria.
