This is the story of my ponysona, Flash Lighting, and how he came to leave Cloudsdale. It starts with him and his griffon friend Updraft, at their final flight exam. Flash passes his but Updraft fails, and when Flash goes to see him off, he winds up getting dragged along with Updraft and another pony who failed the test, a young mare by the name of Sapphire Phoenix. Together they are taken to the Factory. Who will survive in this gruesome tale of betrayal, blood, and madness?
