A Burning Tale
Chapter 1: The Awakening
Load Full StoryNext ChapterLucky slowly opened his eyes as he heard screams of pain while laying in a dark room without any sight of light. After a short while is eyes were used to the never-ending darkness. He looked around trying to find anypony.. but there was no hope... He tormented himself to stand up and held back a loud scream. As he stood up he heard a rattling noise coming from beneath him.. he looks at his hooves only to see they were chained up and so were his wings.
"Hello?!... Anypony out there?.."
He yelled into the dark nothingness before hearing a muffled clanking noise. The noise became louder and louder.. only to stop for a moment and making way for a loud grinding noise of an old wooden door. The opening of the door frame revealed a little light source, enough to discover being locked up in a dungeon-like cell. A deep, rough voice sent shivers down Lucky's spine
"Ah... I see our Doctor woke up..."
"Y-your... Doctor?!..."
He asked before shaking the metal bars he was locked behind.
"Yes... Our new Doctor.. or Surgeon if you want to be called that.. either way, you belong to us now."
Lucky crawls back into a corner in fear as the clanking noise returns. The Pony walked up to the bars and stomps on the ground with one hoof, shortly after that the lights turned on and I covered my face with my wings while letting out a short hiss trying to escape the light.
"Hehe... It seems you aren't the best friend of the day..."
The Pony chuckled and knocked on one of the bars trying to get my attention.
"What do you want from me?!.. and who are you?!"
I yelled and ripped my wings off my face just to see Rainbow Dash in front of me.
"N-no... this can't be... D-dash?..."
She took off a strange looking mask before answering me again.
"yes it's me and you are chosen to work here now, Lucky."
I stared at Rainbow Dash believing this was all a sick joke of her.
"now stand up! we already have a 'patient' for you.."
My front hooves began to shake and burn as I slowly stood up before walking towards the bars and trying to break through.
"Haha nice try.. but not even you could break through.."
My hope was lost from one moment to the other and I sank to the ground again. I stared at my hooves and I thought about giving up. A few seconds later I mumbled to Dash.
"Ok... I have no choice but follow your commands... Miss Dash.."
Rainbow Dash chuckled and smiled after hearing my reply. She stomped with her hoof twice and two suited Ponies walked in and grabbed me. They dragged me into a room with a big surgery table in the middle and some tables with medical instruments.
"Wh-what is this?.. what do you want from me?!"
I yelled after they took off the chains from my hooves and wings before leaving the room again and locking the only door out. I looked around and there was only one reason why I'm still alive... my Medical and Surgeon training. A few moments later Rainbow's voice echoed through speakers.
"Now.. Lucky your job is simple.. due to your Medical knowledge you are our new surgeon.. you are going to 'carefully' cut of the Wings of some Pegasi who aren't co-operating."
I was disgusted by every word she said. But I had no choice... I had to follow her commands and do everything they said. I just nodded in the hope I could get out of this.. but I was mistaking.
