Heroes travels

The ropes was tied quite tightly, it took a few minutes to untie one of Ashley's limbs. after about what seemed to be 20minutes of untying, Callum lifted Ashley's limp body and sat it on the floor, leaning his friends back against the wall towards him and the table.

"Now then, it's time for the fun part" Callum thought to himself aloud as a dark smile slowly grew on his face, he grabbed the ponies body and threw it onto the table, he grabbed the rope and proceeded to tie the creature to the table, Wrapping its hooves in the rope before tying off the rope on the table legs.. Callum decided to sit on the table, keeping his eyes on the creatures body as he waited for it to wake from its unconcious state.

Joseph's office

***

Ashley's eyes drew open for to see Joseph staring at him with his head resting in his hands.

"you look so adorable when you're asleep, you know that right?" said Joseph as he gave a twisted smile

"You would look good with my boot crushing your face, you know that right?" replied Ashley jokingly.

Joseph shook his head, stopping to look at the computer screen. A new message was received...

"Well...looks like we are going to find out what will be wiped from your memory"

Ashley's face slowly made its focus to the ground "Just get it over with"

"If you say so...looks like you got off pretty easy"

Ashley raised his head "Oh really? how so?"

"Well, says here you're going to lose the memories of the following, your mothers face, all memories of the following years in school: 4th, 5th, 8th and 10th, how to drive, couple of memories shared with Callum and that whole brony thing since it isnt really that important."

Ashley was shocked, losing so many precious memories in the blink of an eye. He could of just asked if he could let him die but he didnt want to put Joseph through that.

"Hey, dont be so down, it could of been A LOT worse" said Joseph in a quiet voice, trying to comfort his client "They could of removed all of your memory if they felt it was appropiate"

Ashley could see through his guardians attempts to make him feel better which they did. He stood up and held out his hand towards Joseph "Thanks for looking out for me"

Joseph grasped Ashley's hand and shook it "It's what I do" he let go of his hand and walked over to the door and held it open "When you walk through this door you shall awake in roughly 5 or so minutes, memories will be erased and im looking forward to seeing you again"

A smile grew on Ashley's face as he made his way to the door but was stopped by Joseph's arm blocking his path

"Oh and by the way when you wake up you will remember one thing"

"What?"

Joseph placed his hands on Ashley's shoulders and looked into his eyes "Save her by any means"

"Wait what!? save who?!" His questions were ignored as Joseph literally threw Ashley through the door as it closed by itself

Twilight's basement

***

Callum untied his friends body, he lifted it over his shoulders and walked over to a pile of boxes next to a wall and leaned his friends back against it. He turned his attention to the creature he just knocked out and walked up to it, he shook his arms to prepare for a heavy lifting but the creature was surprisingly light. He lifted it onto the table started to tie its limbs to the table with the rope, looking back to his friends body every so often in case he woke up.

After he finished tying the creature, he drew out his combat knife and poked the creature with the handle, it groaned in response.

Callum was growing impatient, he decided more brute force was needed and slapped the creature round the face with the back of his hand, causing it wake up but couldn't move

"Wha..what the hay!?" shouted the unicorn as she began to panic, she looked at her front hooves to see they were tied up, she start to use her magic to untie one of the knots only to see a blade being struck into the table infront of her. She followed the arm of the thing holding the knife and realised what it was.

The creature had a short black mane, it seemed to be the same species as the one she found earlier, it looked very frustrated, she could see it baring its teeth slightly in a sick, twisted smile. She noticed the creature had sharp teeth. She could tell the creature ate animals by seeing this.

"I wouldn't do that if I was you" said the creature through its teeth. "Can you understand me?"

Twilight gave a nod, she could feel her heart racing "This thing is crazy!" she thought to herself as she looked around the room, she could see the creature she found sitting against the wall next the books she placed on the boxes earlier.

"Heh..." the creature smiled to itself "Im going to have some fun slicing you up and see what makes you work!" stroking the side of the blade across her cheek

Twilight was starting to sweat, she has never been this scared in her life...

Ashley started to comeback to reality, his head felt as though he was shook violently by someone. He noticed Callum was talking to a pony-like creature when he heard a voice in his head

"Save her by any means..."

Ashleys  silently struggled to get back up to his feet, using the wall as support. He saw a large book ontop of a pile of boxes. He grabbed the book with both hands and silently started to sneak up behind Callum

"Oh I cant wait to see your face as I rip you open and tear out your organs one by one" Callum chuckled to himself. Twilight's eyes were looking around the room frantically until her eyes met were the other creature was...but nothing was there. She looked back at the black haired creature and braced herself for the pain, she closed her eyes "This is the end, I know it" she thought to herself

Ashley was right behind Callum with the large book above his own head, He put all his power into smacking Callum with it. All that was heard was a loud THUD and the sound of a body hitting the floor

Twilight opened her eyes to see the brown haired creature which was looking at the floor. she looked down slightly to see it with her book in it's grasp, a small patch of blood could be seen on the cover of the book. She stared at the creature's face as it's eyes met hers "Uh oh" she thought to herself once more, her horn started to glow but she watched in shock as the creature started to untie her,

Ashley's showed no emotion as he untied the pony-thing from the table, it looked familiar, as if he had seen it before. He scooped up the creature and laid it on the floor. He turned his attention to his friends body in disgust as he lifted it up and put it on the table, tying his friends limbs to the table and checking that the knots were secure. He rummaged through Callum's pocket to find a pistol with its suppressor attached and looked at the floor to see his friends combat knife, he picked that up as well and shoved them into his bag.

Twilight just sat still as she watched the creature tie up another of its species and see it take the knife and a wierd metal looking black object from it. She had the thought of running but she felt as though she could trust it since it saved her life but decided to keep her distance away from it just in case.

Ashley looked at the creature and looked around the room, he saw some paper and a quill and picked them up, he started to write something down, stopping to look at his friends body before going back to writing...

He finished and walked up to the pony-like creature and placed the paper infront of it before taking a couple of steps back. Twilight lent over the paper to see badly written words, sentences were scribbled out but she couldn't make out what they said. Her attention was drawn to the bottem of the page which contained one circled, readable word. It said...

Hello...
