A Burning Tale
Chapter 3: The Rescue
Previous ChapterNext ChapterTwo years passed since I saw Junkie and I already thought he didn't make it far. I just finished another tragic surgery when Miss Dash contacted me through the speakers again.
"Lucky prepare the surgery room again.. we have another traitor."
I sighed and prepared the table once more and pulled the little tablet with my instruments out again. I waited a couple of minutes and then they brought in another Pony... A Pony I thought I would never see again... It was Junkie, he had a bump on his head but was still able to talk properly.
"By Luna No... Not you again..."
"Oh Luna No I didn't mean to! please let me free!"
I sadly looked over to Junkie and sighed before ordering the Ponies to leave. After they both left I talked to Junkie.
"For the love of Luna what did you do to land in here again?"
He wiggled in the hope I'd free him but I knew that would be my certain doom. Instead I place a knife besides him and yelled at him.
"Answer me!"
He stopped wiggling and stare at me before replying nervous.
"I... I manipulated the thing I had to work on and they found out... There's just so much pain inside this building... I want it to be shut down forever!"
I let my head drop and sighed in relief. I took away the knife and take off the belts to free Junkie.
"Go ahead... there's a hatch at the top of the room... it will lead to freedom... when you're out immediately call the Royal Guards."
Junkie looked at me confused and asked after tilting his head a bit.
"If there is a hatch to get out of here in this room... why are you still here?"
I sighed and looked at my wings which were still tied against my Body.
"I can't... they tied me up to ensure I won't run away.... Now Hurry they won't be away for ever!"
"O-ok! b-but won't they kill you because you freed me?"
I looked at my right wing and pulled out a sword under it. I could feel the blade grinding against my wing and I pinched my eyes trying to ignore the pain.
"they won't even know I freed you..."
I threw the sword away from us and lay down on the floor.
"you somehow freed yourself and knocked me out."
Junkie nodded and flew up to the hatch leaving me behind to find help. Meanwhile a few seconds after he left Miss Dash broke into the room and saw me laying on the ground. She rushed to me and made sure I was still alive.
"Lucky! Wake up! what happened?!"
I slowly stood up again and walked to my sword to pick it up before answering.
"He... He broke out... I tried my best..."
She looked at me angry but soon she calmed down. She looked around and saw the mess we created in our 'fight'. Then she looked back to me.
"Well... at least our Doc is still alive."
They left again soon and I had my peace for about 32 minutes before hearing an alarm. I rushed out of my operating room only to discover several Solar and Lunar Guards arresting everypony in sight. I smiled in relief as I saw a Lunar Guard flying over to me. I lifted my front hooves smiling. The Guard looked at me confused but just shrugged it off and took me outside.
After every worker was arrested and Dash was captured A Guard walked up to me once more.
"Flame?"
It was the Leader of the team and so I replied with respect in my voice.
"Yes Sir!"
He looked back and waved over Junkie. I smiled and chuckled.
"I'm so glad to see you again."
"Well if I wouldn't have known your name they would not have believe me."
I carefully cut free my wings and spread them revealing the clean cut I inflicted myself earlier.
"The important thing is you called the right Ponies..."
I said before starting to hover in the air.
"I'm sorry but I have to go now... I have to find out where my family lives..."
The Guard interrupted us and talked to me.
"Sir! your Home is in Cloudsdale, Hero Drive 4219"
"thanks Captain!"
I quickly answered before taking off towards Cloudsdale... where I hopefully find my family...
