Where Are You?

Twilight and Spike were starting to cower to the dirt ground. The wolves were all around the. There was no escape. Or was there?

Twilight's horn started to glow as her light spell came into works. But the wolves didn't back up, or even flinch. Twilight had used it so many times that the timberwolves had become immune to it.

Damn it!, she said in her mind.

The timberwolves started moving closer. Twilight closed her eyes and held Spike close. She had no other power to help her in this situa-

Her teeth grinded together in anger as she yelled. "My teleportation spell!"

How could I have been so stupid to completely forget about it!, she yelled in her mind.

All of a sudden, her horn lit up again. All of a sudden, a bright light filled the area. Once it faded, Twilight was nowhere in sight.

She had teleported herself into a nearby bush where the wolves couldn't find her. Twilight sighed in relief as she turned to face Spike.

Wait, Spike!, she screamed in her thoughts.

Her assistant was still in the crowd of wolves. She had forgotten to grab him as she teleported. She couldn't yell out to him, as the timberwolves would see her and rip her apart.

Spike became more scared now. He was all alone in the crowd of hungry timberwolves. All of a sudden, he remembered.

His cheeks puffed up with air as the young dragon took a deep breath.

The confused wolves watched as Spike made himself look like a complete idiot.

All of a sudden, his mouth opened. A big breath of fire came out as it burned the head of a nearby wolf. The wolf ran around and whimpered in pain as it's head slowly burnt off. Finally, it's body became limp as the wolf's head had burned to a crisp.

The wolves were now scared. They slowly backed away as Spike collapsed to the floor. It was very rare when he used his fire breath, and he liked it that away. It would always make him uncomfortably exhausted after he performed the action. And now was no exception.

"Good job, Spike!" Twilight yelled, only to cover up her mouth. The wolves slowly turned their heads to face her.

She'd done it. She had blown her cover, and now she was going to be eaten.

All of a sudden, one wolf jumped foward and landed on Twilight.

The purple unicorn screamed as she tried her best trying to hold the wolf back. The wolf made a nasty snarl and bit down on her horn.

She screamed in pain as the wolf buried his sharp teeth into the marrow of her horn.

She suddenly did a kick to the wolf's chest that broke it's ribcage, and sent the wolf flying in the air. But it was too late. The wolf went flying with Twilight's dismembered horn in it's mouth.

The little stump of horn left on her head was in so much pain that Twilight held back tears.

"Twilight!" Spike yelled. The wolves turned back to the young dragon.

Spike puffed up his cheeks with air, making it look like he was about to breathe fire again.

The wolves whimpered and slowly backed away.

He held his breath in as he ran past the wolves and towards Twilight.

Once he reached her, she was crying from the pain that eminated from the white stump on her head.

"Twilight, are you okay?" he said in a hurry.

"Yes. I'll be okay." she said, breathing hard.

"But your horn-"

"It will grow back."

Spike's face went from worried to straight out confused.

"Wait. Horns grow back?" he asked.

"Yes!" she murmered.

Their conversation suddenly stopped as they heard growls from behind them. They turned to see the wolves were slowly walking towards them.

Twilight turned to Spike, and slowly whispered, "Run!"

They suddenly jumped up and ran through the bushes. The timberwolves took no time to start following them.

The thorns and brances of the thick bushes made it almost impossible to run through them. Twilight turned around to see that the timberwolves were simply just jumping over the pesky bushes.

"Jump over the bushes!" she yelled to Spike.

Immediately, they both started jumping over the bushes.

They were now running faster, and jumping over the bushes increased their speed by a small amount.

The wolves, however, were a different story. The wolves were built to run at high speeds, even when jumping. So naurally, Spike and Twilight were doomed.

But Twilight didn't think about that. Instead, she focused on running. That's until a memory popped into her head.

The nightmare from earlier that night.

In the nightmare, she and Spike were together when the wolves attacked them.

But they weren't being chased in the dream. Instead, they somehow ended up in the water. How on Earth did they-

Twilight's thoughts were suddenly cut off when the ground dropped beneath them. The both slid down the mini hill until they landed in the water.

Twilight's eyes opened as she realized something. Everything was starting to add up.

In the dream, she and Spike were being attacked by timberwolves and ended up in the lake. It shocked Twilight to think this was actually happening.

All of a sudden, the two heard splashes come from behind them. They reluctantly turned around to see the wolves entering the water.

"Oh no." Twilighr whispered in fear.

"SWIM!" she yelled.

They started to swim, but didn't get very far once the splashes had stopped.

The memories of the dream came back again.

Wait, the water stopped, Twilight said in her mind, But that means-

Her thoughts were suddenly cut off as a timberwolve's head popped up right behind Spike's head.

"Spike!" she yelled out.

Spike turned around and screamed. The wolf bit down on Spike's scales and pulled him underwater.

Now, it was all to real.

The events that were in the dream were now becoming true. It was like her dream was a message of some sort.

But now, Twilight had no time to think about that. Holding her breath, she dove underwater.

She painfully opened her eyes to see Spike being pulled underwater.

His face expression made Twilight want to kill herself.

It was the same expression he had made on Nightmare Night, when Rainbow Dash had scared him. His wouth opened and his eyes wide opened. The same face he had made when he had choked on the candy because of the scare.

But he wasn't choking on candy. His facial expression and the faint sound of screaming in the water meant only one thing: he was screaming for help.

Twilight started to swim down towards him. Since she was a pony, she wasn't exactly built for swimming. But she ignored her horrible talent at swimming and instead focused on trying to grab Spile.

Tears formed in her eyes as she saw Spike disappear into the dark waters below.

Twilight was just about ready to give up. But she couldn't. She couldn't let Spike die. She wouldn't be able to live with herself if that happened.

Using all of her might, she suddenly dove deeper into the dark waters.

It was almost impossible to see anything. Twilight was worrying if she would even be able to find Spike.

Suddenly, she saw Spike in the timberwolve's mouth.

She saw other wolves starting to swim towards him. They were going to rip him apart.

Twilight became angry and suddenly swam as fast as she's ever swam before, and kicked the wolf in the head, instantly killing it.

She turned towards the other wolves and kicked each and every one of them. She would punch, kick, bite, etc. Twilight was basically whooping their wooden asses.

Once every wolf was dead, she picked up Spike and swam to shore.

She was starting to run out of breath, and her eyes were bloodshot from the salt water.

She was about to pass out, until her head finally popped out of the water.

She slowly swam back to the sandy shore and lay Spike down on his back.

His eyes were closed, and it didn't look like he was breathing.

Getting worried, Twilight lay her head against his chest. She couldn't hear a heartbeat.

Panicking, she started to give him mouth to mouth.

Nothing worked.

It went to the point to where Twilight was pushing down on his scaly stomach and crying.

"Breath! Come on, breathe!" she cried. "Don't leave me, Spike! Please don't!"

Nothing happened.

She finally gave up, and buried her face in his stomach and cried.

He had been underwater too long. And now it seemed like he was dead.

Twilight had been too late. She had lost her #1 assistant.

She lay on her stomach next to Spike's lifeless body and cried.

"I was too late." she sobbed, "Please forgive me, Spike! Please!"
