The Clockwork Angels

Rainbow Dash was scouting the city for any sign of the Angels. So far, she hadn't found any signs of them, and she was beginning to wonder if they really were fixing the crimes like Twilight had said they were.

"I hope she's enjoying her party." said Rainbow, chuckling a little bit.

She continued to do some fly-bys over the city. She hadn't found anything for a while when she suddenly found them in an alley.

"Suspicious...maybe I'll eavesdrop on them."

She landed on top of a building next to the alley and began to listen.

"-asked him to come here to meet us. Give him autographs. When he comes, you threaten to mug the kid and we save him by beating you up."

"...won't that hurt?"

"The money we're giving you, remember?"

"R-right. Got it."

"Okay, we're flying off. say the words and we fly in."

"Got it."

They Angels flew off into the distance with the mugger in an attack position.

So it was true! These guys were nothing more than a bunch of gang members! And, better yet, they had attacked her and made her fall out of the sky! that ruined, like, half her reputation around here! She was going to sabatoge that plan! But...how?

Then she remembered the mugger, still in attack position.

"It's clobbering time." she said to herself as she flew towards the mugger.

Pinkie's Party

Twilight was trying to have fun at the last minute party that that Pinkie Pie pony had planned in about 20 seconds.

She wasn't.

The whole Clockwork Angels thing was still bothering her. Were they urban heroes? Or were they power-hungry gang members looking for control? Only Rainbow Dash could tell at this point...if she had any information. If she didn't than what would she look at them as? It was making her head hurt. She was pondering this question when Rainbow Dash came through the door.

She casually walked in and dragged Twilight into a corner.

"I have your info, Sparkle."

"Really!? What about them?"

"They aren't heroes. You we're right, Sparkle."

"Ah ha!...how did you find this out?"

"Interesting story..."

Fllllaaaaasssshhhhbbbbaaaaccckkkkkk

Rainbow Dash was soaring at the would-be mugger with tremendous speed. The mugger just realized a cyan pony was flying at her when Rainbow impacted with his skull, sending him to la-la land just as the Angels had done to her. She dragged him in plain siight and went back to hiding on her building.

"-can't wait to meet them! The Clockwork Angels! This will be so cool-" the pony stopped dead when he saw the unconcious mugger.

"Uh,... is this guy okay? Um...hello? Guys? Angels? Clockwork?"

The Angels flew in and also discovered the unconscious mugger.

"We should get this pony to the hospital! Quick!" said Red Barchetta. He then turned to the one called Freewill and whispered one word to him.

"Investigate."

Horseapples! One of those Angels was coming after her!

She bolted upwards as fast as she could. She got about 100 feet up and looked down...to find Freewill hot on her tail.

She had to lose Freewill quickly. If she didn't, the other Angels would be coming to get her as well, and Rainbow dash didn't like the odds that that situation presented. She flew even higher before realizing somethimg.

Freewill hadn't gained speed. In fact, he may have even lost it.

Dash flew upward, pushing the limits of her own body, attempting to escape. She looked back to find that Limelight had joined the chase.

"Crap!" she said out loud. She jerked to the side, looking for an exit. She spotted an open window in a house nearby.

This wasn't going to work. And if it did, she was going to be arrested.

She darted for the window as fast as she could. Limelight and Freewill had caught on, and began to excellerate along with her.

So now Freewill catches up!

She was inches away from the window. she managed to get inside the house while at the same time closing the window with a lever on the side wall.

Limelight and Freewill's faces were plastered against the window as they gentally slid down and hit the ground below them.

Dash looked around the house, panting. Nopony was home.

"Thank Celestia. Holy crap, I need to go!"

She bursted out the door and headed straight to Pinkie's house, hoping the incapacitated Angels would see her.

Eeeeennnddd Flllaaasssshhhbbbaaaccckkkk

"So now they know about you." said Twilight.

"Yea. I'm in trouble, aren't I?"

"If they find you, they'll do something terrible to you-" began a worried Twilight.

"In public? No. They would have to find me in a secluded place. I won't let that happen to me, even if I have stay on the ground."

"So you'll never be able to fly again?" asked Twilight, skeptical.

Dash smiled.

"Not until we drive those freaks outta town."

A large bang filled the room. Then another.

"They found us! They're trying to take down the door!" said Twilight.

Rainbow Dash plastered a smug look on her face.

Freewill and Limelight burst through the door.

"ALRIGHT, THAT'S-"

They looked around to see many party guest and the look on Dash's face.

"Look, everypony! The Clockwork Angels! I bet you I can get their autograph's first!" shouted Dash, the look still on her face.

"No way!" shouted one.

"I will!"

"Me!"

"Muffins!" shouted another.

The Angels were stormed by ponies, literally engulfed to the point where they wern't visible. And I you can't see them, they can't see you.

"Scram." said Dash, making a signal to Applejack who had been previously eating cake. They ran out of the building as the Angels were swarmed by passerby's as well.

They stumbled outside to find that the rest of the Angels had found them.

"Where do we go?" asked Twilight, frantically searching for a place to hide.

"Sweet Apple Factroy!" shouted AJ.

"Great idea! Time to hall ass, girls!" said Rainbow as AJ and Twilight began to run while Rainbow attempted to keep pace with her flying.

"I could be down there in ten seconds flat! Aargh!" said Rainbow, speeding up a little bit faster.

"Thanks, Mrs. Loyalty!" shouted Applejack.

"Guys, I might be able to create a spell that can bring us down to the factory! I need time!" shouted Twilight.

"Gotcha!" said Rainbow.

She flew behind them and turned to the Angels. She stuck her tounge out and made various faces to anger them.

"That's eating away at our time, not buying it!" shouted Applejack.

"Cool it, AJ. I got this."

She continued to make the faces and suddenly flew to the left of the group. The Angels chased her.

"Can your spell work from that far away?" asked Applejack.

"No! But I think I know what she's getting at!" Her horn suddenly lit up with a bright purple.

"Rainbow! Come back!" shouted Twilight.

Rainbow nodded and zoomed over towards them as fast as she could. When she got in reach, Twilight casted her spell.

They immediatly vanished. The Angels looked on in shock.

"Dammit!" shouted Red, slamming his hoof on the concrete causing it to hurt. Red Barchetta failed to notice the pain.

That pony had a death wish.

And he was going to grant it if was the last thing he ever did.
