Chapter 13: The End of the Storm.

Chapter 13: The End of the Storm.

~Everyone knew what they had to do. Lightning, Karly, Rainbow and Sunset dabbed mud on their fingers then smeared a straight line on each of their cheeks with it. Everyone prepared their powers and ponies up in the process. They look up to see the clouds swirling the sky and lightning crashing onto the trees, creating sparks and flames. They all take a deep breath before running and flying through the storm, they yelled and howled, trying to find Stitch and Spike.~

"Spike!?" Sunset yelled.

Pinkie climbed onto a tree and cried. "Spppiiikkkeee!"

"Stitch!" Lightning howled, desperately looking around.

"Stitch?!" Karly called.

Twilight had a mixture of anger and worry on her face. "Oh, Spike…"

Fluttershy went to Twilight and reassured her. "They have to be okay…"

"They will be. They have to be. Stitch!" Lightning continued to howl.

Suddenly, she got a howl back in response and a cry.

"Help!"

"That's Spike!" Twilight exclaimed.

"Stitch, Spike, we're coming! Don't worry!" Rainbow called out.

~Lightning, Karly and the Rainbooms follow to where they heard Spike's cries and Stitch's howls. The storm blew their hair all over the place and lightning struck another nearby tree. The tree began to timber in front of the girls but Lightning slid underneath it and the rest went over or around it. They blasted through more trees until they came across a river. There they saw over 10 wolves and White Spark crowding over two rocks. And Stitch and Spike were there under the rocks! They had escaped the grip of the wolves and crouched under the rocks to be safe, but it wasn't working too well. The wolves were snarling, trying to force their way into the rocks to get to Stitch and Spike. And White Spark was laughing all the way, also trying to break the rocks.~

Stitch howls for help once again and Spike yelps.

"Back off, fleabags! Let me…" White Spark shouted.

Rainbow glared. "Hey!"

"LET'S GO!" Lightning sneered.

~Everyone slid down the hill and charged in. Lightning was ahead of everyone so she took the lead. She targeted two wolves and headbutted them straight into the river. They flopped around as they drifted off. White Spark immediately stopped to turn to Lightning, Karly and the Rainbooms.~

"Well, Well. Look who got relevated! Get 'em!"

~White Spark grins at everyone then he snaps his fingers and commands two wolves to attack. The wolves assailed and go for Lightning, but Karly steps in and quickly teleports the wolves out of their sight and into the river. All the wolves then charge in and the Rainbooms fight each one off. Pinkie threw the confetti, Rainbow charged into them, Applejack lifted them up, Twilight levitated them up, Rarity blocked their attacks, Fluttershy gently calmed one of them down and it ran away and Sunset and Lightning teamed together to fight. White Spark watches them battle then starts smashing the rocks again, and he was getting closer to Stitch and Spike. The dogs screamed and tried to back away, but they were clearly trapped in a small area with nowhere to go.~

"Spike!" Twilight cried.

Lightning turned to Sunset. "Sunset, come with me to get Stitch and Spike."

"Alright!"

~Lightning and Sunset both take each other's hands and run to White Spark. But then three wolves got in their way. One pounced at Lightning but she ducks just in time. However, Sunset didn't. The wolf landed right on her chest and pinned her to the ground while the other two grabbed the back of her shirt with their teeth and started to drag her off.~

"Hey! Get off! Let go! Lightning!"

Lightning stops and pants. "Sunset! Uh…"

"Li-Lightning!"

~Lightning kept looking at Sunset then back to Stitch and Spike. She had a choice to make on who she should help first. Lightning started to squeal until she made up her mind. She turned to Sunset and ran to her. She tried to get to Sunset but the wolves snarled. Lightning panted but then she noticed the wolves were dragging Sunset past a big tree. She activated her power, shapeshifted into a half-human, half-lizard, and blasted fire onto the stump of the tree. The bark burnt and got weak and once it was weak enough, the tree timbered right above the wolves. The wolves saw it, dropped Sunset and flinched as the tree was falling. Lightning quickly pounced on Sunset and knocked them both out of the way while the tree fell and thumped the wolves into the river. Lightning and Sunset both watched it happen and watched the wolves flail and drift off in a stream.~

Sunset sighs in relief. "Thank you, Lightning."

She nodded. "Hm. You're welcome."

Karly teleported to the girls. "Hey, Are you two alright?"

"Yeah, we're fine."

~Twilight and Karly helped Lightning and Sunset to their feet and reassured them. The Mane 5 then went over to them and joined in after they finished the wolves. But then lightning flashed above them and a very loud scream from Stitch was heard. Everyone turned to see White Spark clutching onto Stitch and Spike and he was trying to squeeze them both to death with his bare hands. Stitch and Spike felt their bodies getting pressed and their teeth gritted to feel the pain. Another scream was then let out by Stitch again. Soon enough, he and Spike lost consciousness.~

"The eye of the storm!"

~Everyone looked in terror as Stitch and Spike screamed. Then...something clicked inside of Lightning. Something triggered her and her eyes just turned red. She growled fiercely at White Spark and then she started to glow blue. Thunder contoured around her and she was lifted in the air.~

Karly freaked out. "Lightning…? Lightning!"

"How is she…?" Sunset was speechless.

~Before anyone said anything else, Lightning blasted her Equestrian magic straight at White Spark. White Spark looked up just to see the blast coming straight for him and his eyes shrunk. The magic hit his arm and he dropped Stitch and Spike and was overwhelmed with FEAR.~

"WHOSE afraid of Thunder and Lightning now?!" Lightning shrieked.

~White Spark screamed tremulously and started to run away. Lightning drops to the floor again and everyone watches him run off.~

"He's getting away!" Rainbow pointed.

"NOT...FOR...LONG. Karly, blaster."

~Karly frightfully hands Lightning her blaster and Lightning takes it forcefully. She aims at White Spark then fires. A blue laser whizzes through the wind until it smacks White Spark at the back of the head. He falls to the floor and into the river, never to be seen again. Lightning drops the blaster to the floor and pants her heart out after White Spark had fallen. Twilight and Fluttershy looked at Lightning in shock but then they went over to Stitch and Spike. Twilight lifted Spike in her arms while Fluttershy lifted Stitch. They take Stitch and Spike back to the group so they can scan them.~

"Are they gonna be alright…?" Applejack asked.

"Hmm…" Fluttershy scans Stitch and Spike, then sighs in huge relief. "Yes. They're just in a deep sleep. They'll wake up soon."

Pinkie laughs in relief. "Thank goodness!"

"Whoo...I'm happy." Karly sighed. "Glad everyone will be ok. Good job, Lightning. Lightning?"

~Lightning was still staring off into space, not listening to a word anyone just said. Karly looked at Lightning then she tapped her shoulder to see if she will respond, but then, Lightning's face freaks out and she collapses on the ground, also losing her pony ears, tail and wings.~

"Oh my-Lightning! Are you alright?" Rarity looked down upon Lightning's face.

"Never...again…" Lightning loudly groans...then faints.

Karly looked concerned at first, but then she narrowed her eyes. "...Yes, she's going to be fine…Phew...Note to selves: Never make Lightning really really angry…"

Everyone suddenly heard coughing. "Oh...my...goodness…"

Twilight then gasped. "Spike! You're ok!" She hugs him tightly.

"Twilight...you saved us." Spike smiled crookedly.

"Of course we did."

"Yeah! We'd never leave ya hanging!" Rainbow folded her arms and smiled.

Stitch then groans and wakes up. "Me...thank you. Me love you, girls!"

~Stitch wags her tail and jumps out of Fluttershy's arms before throwing her and the others down to the ground to aggressively lick their faces.~

"Oh! Pffft! You're welcome, Stitch!" Karly spat as Fluttershy began to giggle.

"Oh, goodness! Stitch, heel! You're welcome…" Rarity exclaimed.

"Ahh, ehh! Dog slobber!" Rainbow began to spit everywhere.

Finally, Sunset laughed when Stitch got to her. "Ok, ok, Stitch!"

"Where's Lightning?" Stitch panted.

Karly pointed to her. "There. She's ok though."

~Stitch sees the passed out Lightning on the floor and stumbles over to her. He then proceeded to lick her nose and face until she slowly groaned and fluttered her eyes open and woke up.~

"Stitch…?"

"Ih."

"Oh, Stitch!"

~Lightning wrapped Stitch in her arms and gave him a big, long hug before getting up and making him lounge comfortably in her hands.~

"So glad you're safe! You too, Spike!"

"I've never felt better in all my life." Spike barked happily.

"Neither have I. But, this...has to have been the craziest thing we have experienced in our lives…" Sunset groaned a little.

"Crazier than the Dazzlings?" Karly inquired.

Sunset nodded.

"Huh. Well, get used to it! As a secret agent, this kind of stuff will happen once or twice a week." Lightning reminded.

"Why did we agree to this?" Sunset groaned again.

"Hey!"

"Sorry. It was a Joke…?" She shrugged her shoulders uneasily.

"Hm…! Better be."

~Sunset gives Lightning a nervous smile as she looks at her suspiciously, suddenly the two girls break into laughter and hug. The rest also break into laughter after a second.~
