Is all Hope Lost?
Holding Out on the Front Line
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe battle was slowly taking a turn on the field outside of Canterlot. Many griffons were punching and kicking at the brainwashed pegasus ponies, winged demons, and winged Klugetownians, and every once in a while, a pair of them fighting one anther would fall down, crashing on the ground like a horde of shooting stars. Many deaths would vary: a few griffons died while more winged demons were killed off, and many more pegasus ponies were knocked down, incapacitated, or crippled after being defeated by their opponents.
Hippogriffs, changelings, and a couple of pegasus ponies suffered a few casualties as well, but most of them were standing strong against their enemies
Out of everyone on the army of good, the minotaurs from Zebrica seemed to be the ones fighting the most ferocious and brave manner. Three diamond dogs were killed by one minotaur by being decapitated by his large and sharp sword.
Another minotaur was fighting one that was on Roseblood's size, but of course, most of those minotaurs are in this for the money that she promised them. The Zebrican minotaurs were larger than their regular, more brutish cousins and more intelligent. For that, the Zebrican minotaur soldier easily defeated him with a heavy punch in the face, and threw him on the ground while doing a backwards roll.
Many animals were fighting so bravely too, even the smaller animals like the bees, wasps, Hornets, squirrels, chipmunks, mice, rats, and other small critters were fighting hard.
Angel Bunny was probably the one fighting the fiercest, given the fact that he can have a feisty personality. He ever pierced a rat-like Klugetowner in the back of the head with his small spear, going through his brain.
When the opponent fell to the ground, blood was slowly spilling out of his head, and Angel let out a war cry while pounding his chest like a gorilla or a chimpanzee.
The dragons were still giving it all they got against their enemies and at least tried to subdue the ponies by knocking them unconscious.
Lyra and Bon Bon were getting a little tired and did not know how long they could keep on fighting their opponents like this. They tried many more combo moves together, ending from a wheel formation to squish their foes.
"Gah! How many more bad guys do we have to take down?" Said Bon Bon.
"I know. I'm getting very tired to fight off any more." Lyra agreed. "But, we have to do this. The princess', and our brainwashed friends need us."
"Right."
Cloudchaser and Flitter were in the skies, punching and kicking every evil flying demons with bat-like wings, and those monsters would fall to the ground, one by one with the siblings' punches and kicks
"Shit." Cloudchaser muttered under her breath. "This is getting serious. All of these demons just keep coming and coming!"
"I really hope this ends." Flitter agreed. "My legs are starting to hurt."
"We can't give up now, little sis! Equestria needs us!"
"Right."
Those were not the only ones feeling exhausted, but everyone else on the side of good was slowly starting to feel sore limbs and some deep cuts. Ten more diamond dogs were killed, along with one brainwashed royal guard, three more of Iron Will’s Minotaurs, and at least one of Garble’s friends was completely killed by one of the gigantic good dragons as big as a Torch.
For the side of good, seven mice and rats were killed by the demons, a Fox had it’s neck broken by a klugetownian, and a Tiger was shot down by an arrow from a diamond dog archer.
Meanwhile, back in the castle of Canterlot, Celestia, Luna (both whom were still Daybreaker and Nightmare Moon), Cadence, and Shining Armor were unconscious on the floor under the bubbles that Discord conjured to keep them from escaping.
Discord, Zecora, and the few other leaders were looking at them with worried looks on their faces. For one thing was because they all looked injured, and secondly: they might break free from those bubbles, and Discord’s magic might not be that powerful for them to stay in them.
“Are you sure they are perfectly contained?” Asked Zecora.
“Positive. These bubbles are impenetrable like the thickest plastic you could punch through.” The Master Of chaos boasted. “Yep, unless I snap them out of those bubbles, they aren’t going anywhere.”
“Well, enough of that,” Said Thorax. “Come on, we need to get to Spike!”
“Right!” Everyone continued the search and looked all around the castle for the baby dragon, but he was nowhere to be seen. They did find Flurry Heart asleep in her crib, and Discord wilently closed the door so he wouldn’t wake her up.
“Grr. Where could he be?” Said Ember. “He could be anywhere in this castle.”
“We will just have to keep searching high and low.” Said Zuberi. “But, we will find the boy.”
In the tallest tower again, Roseblood was sitting next to Spike, gently stroking his head with her hoof. “Those fools will never defeat me. Even with a large army on their side, they will never defeat me, or dethrone me.
Spike didn’t respond since he was in a deep sleep, and he muttered: “Yummy gems,” and rolled over, making Roseblood smile at his usual adorable personality. She couldn’t he,o but give him another kiss on his forehead.
“I am the queen of darkness, and I can outclass anything that could try and strike me with a mortal blow. Yes, before Celestia and Luna banished me to hell, I was the absolutely queen of evil, even though; I soon will be again. Now, even with them under my control, opony will ever stop me!”
Twilight, Starlight, and their friends were in the same room as her, chuckling and laughing evilly with Roseblood in their future domination over the whole world. “Those fools can try and stop us,” Said Twilight. “We can make them writhe in pain and suffering, and maybe toy around with them a little.”
“And we can still make the animals our slaves,” Said Applejack. “We would be an unstoppable empire across Equestria.”
“And by we, you mean: mostly me.” Roseblood boasted. “I am the mastermind behind this wonderful, brilliant master plan, and I placed you all under my control with little struggle in the process. Heh heh, yes, life is good.”
“It will be better when we crush our enemies.” Said Fluttershy with a cruel smile. “We’ll bleed them all dry.”
“And we can torture them just for kicks!” Rainbow added.
“Now, now, in due time, my friends.” Said Chrysalis. “We will just have to see what happens.”
“Right you are. Chrysalis. Once this is all over, I will be sure to give the leaders of this little rebellion a taste of their own medicine, and make all their lives miserable.”
