Corvus
Corvus: Chapter 3
Previous ChapterNext ChapterSweetie and Daring Do jumped on the wings of Nebula, who began to scream an ear-piercing, high-pitched shriek.
She then began to flap her wings, and Sweetie was having serious trouble holding on her huge, 2-meter wide wings.
"It's about to take off, hold on!" said Daring Do.
Nebula soared to the air, and the view of the Everfree Forest in the sunny afternoon was beautiful.
"Sweetie Drops! I can see you!" said Celestia, who was communicating to Drops from her ear-piece.
"Okay, I'm gonna try and get in the ship again!" said Sweetie Drops.
"No! I have an idea! Get inside Corvus! I'll explain later!" said Celestia.
Sweetie Drops looked over to see Daring Do on Nebula's other wing.
"Daring Do! Can you find a way to make Nebula fly to the big green ship?" said Sweetie Drops at the top of her lungs, the speed and height they were travelling in made it hard to hear anything.
"I think I can do that!" said Daring Do.
Sweetie saw Daring Do crawl to Nebula's head, her heart was beating at a pace so fast Sweetie thought she would faint.
Daring Do attached herself to Nebula's ears, giving her the ability to control her flight pattern.
"Next stop, big giant green ship!" exclaimed Daring Do, who was always an adrenaline chaser.
They saw a beam from Celestia's ship smash into Corvus, creating an opening for them.
"Through there, let's go!" exclaimed Sweetie Drops.
They reached the crack and jumped off Nebula, who flew back to the Everfree Forest.
They were in Corvus's main reactor, where a tube containing the A.I's central components lay.
"Perfect, now we can destroy Corvus!" said Sweetie Drops.
Drops felt her watch vibrate again, she was surprised it was still intact.
"Hello, Celestia,"
"Um, Sweetie, there's another problem we need to deal with," said Celestia nervously.
"What is it?" asked Drops.
"Just look outside," said Celestia.
Sweetie peered out of the crack in Corvus, and saw the Pharaoh creature that was chasing them, only this time it was 300 meters tall, and the Mane 6 were having trouble defeating him.
"What the... Daring Do! Wasn't he small the last time we saw him?" asked Sweetie Drops.
"Oh yeah... so um... I may have forgot to mention a tiny detail, it's that this Pharaoh was never supposed to be awakened, and I was going to lead it back into it's cave, but then... you came along," said Daring Do.
"It doesn't look like the Mane 6 will be destroying him anytime soon," said Sweetie Drops.
Then she felt another buzz from her watch.
"Yeah?"
"I have an idea, Sweetie," said Celestia.
"What is it?" asked Sweetie Drops.
"I think we can take out 2 birds with one stone here... I see you're near Corvus's central A.I, I know how to hack him to make him think the Pharaoh is me, so he'll charge himself into it... and voila, we solved the problem," explained Celestia.
"Okay, I'm going to the A.I now, you tell me what to do when we get there," said Sweetie Drops.
Just then, she heard an alarm sound, Corvus found out that their were unexpected guests arriving today.
Sweetie looked around her to see every single trap ready to activate, now Corvus was a minefield.
"This isn't good..." said Daring Do, with a grim expression.
"Okay, I have an implant in my eye, I think I might be able to find out where the traps are," Sweetie loaded up her mechanical eye and examined the ship, finding red lines for tripwires, and all sorts of other activation techniques.
"Daring Do! No!" Sweetie saw Daring Do accidentally activate a trap, but Sweetie didn't know what was going to happen.
"Uh oh..." Daring Do saw a giant monster exit a locked cage. It was huge and terrifying, and it looked down on them with a watering mouth.
"RUN! NOW!" they began to run as fast as they could, through the greenish tint of the interior of Corvus, while the huge brown monster chased them. Sweetie looked back at it while she ran, it had sharp white teeth, and huge ears. It's eyes were red mixed with dark brown, and it's body had the shape of a large trophy.
Because Sweetie had no time to check, she was activating traps left and right, causing saws, lasers, and hooks to fly from every direction.
