Way of the Scorpion

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Silver's mind was racing a thousand miles from that kiss Aurora gave him. On top of that, he had to process the whole "dragons mating for life" thing. And right now, with the two of them still in the nude, all cuddled up, Silver could feel his meat pole poking from down below.

Aurora let out a passionate growl before she giggled softly at his reaction.

“Awww, don’t be shy. I don’t bite… much~” She stated in a lustful tone. Silver chuckled nervously, not knowing exactly what to do in this situation. He's never had sex with a woman, let alone with a smoking hot dragon goddess. "Here, why don't you just leave everything to me and you just relax, okay?" She asked, booping him on the nose.

"Uh?... Ok?” Silver replied with an anxious tone of voice while his cheeks were turning completely red. Aurora moved herself down to face his raging hard-on, admiring the size of his dick. She grabbed it with one hand and stroked it, getting a good feel before she'll taste the thing.

"Wow, you're so big and hard. You humans certainly are huge down there. I've only heard stories of sex, but to be doing this in real life makes me so happy." Aurora smiled seductively. "Good thing I'm gonna be your first."

Silver couldn’t say a word. He was completely paralyzed and flustered beyond his comprehension. And to top it off, the handjob Aurora was giving him only increased his fluster and arousal levels to an extreme limit.

After a while, Aurora licked her lips and looked up at Silver. "Here I go," she said before taking in ¾ of his dick into her mouth and sucking on it hungrily. Her tongue swirled around the base while she bobbed her head up and down.

Silver gasped in surprise as this dragon goddess was giving him the best blowjob in his life. Aurora does her best to avoid her sharp teeth scratching against his meat pole while hungrily sucking on it like it’s a lollipop… a massive, bulky lollipop to be exact.

Silver could only let out moans while gripping his bedsheets. The pleasure was all so new to him, yet it felt so good. He regrets not doing this sooner, but glad he saved himself for someone special. Aurora can tell from the look in his eyes she's giving it to him real good. But she knows she can do better.

She grabs her massive tits and mashes his cock between them and starts tittyfucking him while sucking him off. Even though her skin was scale-like, but her breasts were softer than anything in the entire world! Even silk. And possibly clouds. Silver was in complete bliss as he felt those incredible massive pillows mash against his manhood and her tongue wrapping and licking it; which teased him further.

All the pleasure he was getting was building up the pressure down below. He could only guess what's gonna happen next. "G...Gonna cum! W...Watch out!" He groaned, trying to warn her.

However, the dragoness does not try to avoid it. Instead, she had his entire cock deep into her mouth and slightly down her throat as Silver’s climax had come instantly. His cock throbbed and gushed out huge chunks of his sperm straight down her throat. She gulped it all down, basking in the warm sensation of her lover's manly milk.

After it stopped soon after, Aurora removes her maw from his manhood and gulps down any last of what's left. She licks her lips before looking down at the young man with a crazed lustful look in her draconic eyes.

"So good. Makes me wonder how good it'll feel once it's inside me~” She stated as she has her fingers rub against her nethers just by the thought of it.

"W-Well… gee, by all means… g… go right ahead then," Silver said nervously. ‘I’m gonna regret saying that… well unless I survive this?’ He thought in his head.

"Aww, aren't you sweet? Don't worry… I'll be gentle, dear," Aurora assured, stroking his cheek. As she lifted herself, she aimed her soaking entrance directly above his fat dick and slowly descended, slowly eating his entire cock with her hungry, soaking pussy. And thus… their virginities were forever gone and the two have finally become one.

Both of these lovers moaned together, throwing their heads back. Aurora was amazed that his dick didn't tear her pussy in half or how Aurora was so tight. Silver could not have imagined that his first love would be a goddess… who is also a dragoness no less.

Once Aurora got used to his massive dick, she began riding him slowly, going up and down, sinking it in deep while she moaned like she was in heat. Her wings stiffened like a pair of wing boners and her cheeks turned slightly red. Silver was infatuated by this beautiful goddess and soon found himself grabbing her hips and moving them up and down while he began thrusting in sync with her.

"Ahh!!! Yes! Pound me! I'm all yours!!! Give all your love to me!!!" She moaned loudly.

Silver grunted and moaned from the massive amounts of pleasure and ecstasy he was feeling. He kept pounding his girlfriend like a steam piston and she soon found herself laying on top of him. Her massive boobs mashed against his face. Silver was caught in a major booby trap, not that he was complaining.

The dragoness was enjoying this all too much. She hasn’t felt this kind of love and pleasure in five centuries.

She's gonna be addicted to Silver's meat rod from now until the end of time and she's gonna make sure she enjoys every waking moment of it. Her wet pussy keeps clamping tightly around the base, trying to milk him again. All the while, he just kept on hitting her cervix and kissing her womb entrance. No human has ever had the pleasure of hitting her this deep inside.

“Mmmmmmmm~! Oh, I haven’t felt like this in ages! You’re a perfect mate for me! And from here on out, we shall have our mating ritual every… Single… NIGHT~!” She stated lustfully and boldly as she continued to ride him even more.

"That's… fine with me! Work… can get… real stressful at times! And I… can feel it… ready to blow!" He warned, but kept thrusting deeper and faster.

“Yes! Yes, my love! Fill me with your manly essence and solidify our future as lovers for life~!” The dragoness screamed passionately. Silver then gently grabbed her cheeks and leaned in while pulling her into a deep, passionate kiss. The two lovers held each other in a passionate make-out session.

Finally, Silver's cock flared and gushed out huge loads of his hot spunk into her love tunnel, making its way into her womb. She screamed in the kiss and climaxed all over his crotch, feeling her lover fill her to the brim, slightly bloating her. Silver didn't kid around about the work stress. And boy, did he fill her up good.

Aurora let out a satisfied gasp as she laid on top of her new mate while caressing his head. “That was… fun~ I enjoyed it very much.” She softly said. “I love you, Silver.”

"I love you too, Aurora," he replied. They kissed one more time before laying down next to each other, cuddling for a little while longer.


Meanwhile, at the hideout, Inferno was currently working on a secret side project that was near completion, which he doesn’t tell anyone. Meanwhile, the door to the base opens up and in walks Israel, who still looks down, due to him hiding his face in his long, silver hair. He doesn't say a word, he just walks in and takes a seat wherever. Inferno looked over at his depressed goofball of a friend.

"Hi, Inferno," he said, not even looking back.’

“Hey, Israel…. Still feeling down?” Inferno asked his compadre.

"Afraid so. I might as well give up. Derpy's never gonna speak to me after she saw that side of me during our binge-watching free time," Israel replied. "She deserves better."

“Oh come on. We don’t know that. I’m sure she’ll come back. We can’t lose hope yet.” Inferno responded.

"I'm not even sure I can call myself a friend after I scared her away. Maybe I should just stick with Pinkie and Fluttershy, along with rescuing others," Israel said.

"Come on, dude. You're not thinking clearly. How about you take some time to think it over doing whatever it is that calms you down?" Inferno suggested.

"...Okay then," Israel replied before activating his Victory Squad suit. Afterward, he took up a meditating position, becoming shrouded in his chi and levitating above the ground by at least a few inches.

"I'm tempted to measure that chi of yours, but I don't wanna repeat what happened last time," Inferno said. “Your girlfriend nearly drained the life out of me,” he silently muttered to himself.

"And yours was a real tight squeeze and yet she was still as sweet as can be. You're lucky to have such a beautiful apple gal," Israel replied.

Inferno turned to him in shock. “How the hell did you hear me?” He asked.

"This place is quiet, so I can hear almost anything, especially when I'm meditating," Israel replied, keeping his eyes closed while still doing his thing.

“Figures…” Inferno replied as he moved back to the monitors. “I should spend more time AJ. I never got the chance to in weeks.” He stated. “And yeah… That reminds me of something, didn’t you say that you were planning to punish Pinkie for what she pulled during our Christmas party last 2 months ago?” He asked.

"Yeah… that's true. I suppose it's long overdue. When she gets here, I'll give her a good punishing… or two," Israel said.

“Uhhh… Well… Do you mind if I help out? Cause I need to get back at her for eavesdropping.” Inferno asked. “Plus I may have some ideas on how to help you out.” He stated.

"Hmm… well…" Israel said, stroking his chin.

“Look it’s not what you think,” Inferno replied as he reached into his desk and pulled out a small vial with white liquid inside it. “Just have her drink this.” He said while handing over the vial to Israel. “And see the magic happen…. Don’t tell her I gave it to you.” He instructed.

"Okay, but… what does it do?" he asked.

“Sorry bud, can’t tell ya. You’ll have to find out for yourself.” Inferno replied.

"Okay then," Israel replied. He deactivated his suit and hit the vial inside his pocket. "Pinkie, you are so… in trouble."

Inferno chuckles to himself as he moves back to the monitors. “I wonder how everyone is doing?” He said to himself.

Soon after he said that the doors of the warehouse opened, and walking in was the Sunset and the others, including Eternal and Heat; with Chrysalis following behind the two, mostly Heat.

‘Why does everything happen when I say something!?!?!?!’ Inferno screamed in his mind.

"Everything? Don't be silly, silly. We showed up just as you mentioned us by coinkidink," Pinkie Pie said, popping up from below.

Inferno was surprised and startled. “HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT I’M THINKING!?!?!” He shouted out of confusion.

"It's Pinkie Pie, don't question it," Sunset said.

"Ah, Pinkie Pie. Just the cutie-patootie I needed to see. Can you please follow me for a minute, I have something to discuss with you… in private," Israel said, approaching his pink pretty girl.

“Okie Dokie!” She replied cheerfully as Israel led her out of the room and into somewhere private. Like the shower room. Leaving the others to have a conversation to themselves.

"So, what's on the agenda today, Inferno?" Twilight asked.

“Well I was busy working on a secret project and Israel walked into the room looking like he was stood up at a wedding.” He replied.

"It's Derpy. He's still probably feeling down that he scared her off," Rainbow guessed.

"I feel sorry for the poor dear," Rarity added.

"He's gonna be alright, is he?" Applejack asked.

"Eventually, he will. We just gotta give him some time," Fluttershy said in understanding.

"So, this secret project you're working on… you plan on telling us what it is or are you gonna give a presentation of it later?" Tempest asked.

“Well, it’s pretty much not completed yet. And of course, I ran low on my supply of Draconium so I had to use Titanium and Chromium as a replacement.” Inferno stated.

"Ran out? Why don't we just make some more? Or better yet, you can use some of my Infinium as a temporary replacement," Heat recommended

“Look one. I don’t know how your Infinium works. And second, I not gonna use your metal, it feels like I’m cheating off a school assignment; and third, I used up my entire supply of draconium to make the gear and equipment for the girls. And I would make more, but I don’t have the equipment and machinery needed to make the metal. And all those are back at the CSRC.” Inferno explained.

"Understandable. Maybe I and my brother can go and get the machinery and equipment. I can identify which ones you'll need and Eternal and I can bring them here," Heat said.

"Are you crazy? What if one of those machines is too big? Carrying one of those around would be like turning myself into a big-ass beacon," Eternal pointed out.

"Oh, right. Well, there has to be some way to get the right equipment for the draconium." Heat said, scratching his head.

"We'll try to figure it out in due time. For now, since we're low on supplies, we have to be more careful with the way we handle ourselves in our fights," Sunset said.

“And don’t waste your time, Heat. I informed Tempest about it and she’s now on the lookout for the precise equipment needed to produce more Draconium. She’s let me know that she’s found one though it would take her two days to have it delivered here.” Inferno stated.

"Man, she's one hell of a resourceful lady," Eternal said in surprise.

"I'll say." Heat agreed.

“Eeyup.” Applejack spoke.

Meanwhile, as everyone was conversating in the other room, Israel and Pinkie enter the shower room and close the door behind them.

"Pinkie, I gotta tell you. It's always fun having such cute girlfriends, especially you and Fluttershy, but right now it about you and me. And to show how much I love my cutie-patootie girlfriend, I brought you a delicious drink." Israel then reached into his pocket and gave Pinkie the vial of white liquid.

"Ooh, yummy! Thank you, Izzy-pizzy!" Pinkie said, accepting the vial. She pops open the cork and drinks the liquid inside it; every last drop of it. And the taste of it was vanilla and caramel, which made it more delicious. "Mmmm, thank you! The drink was super-duper yummy!" she exclaimed before hugging Israel, making a cute squee.

In their hug, Israel had a mischievous expression on his face. “Sure Pinkie, I’m glad you liked it.” He said with a smile that was sly as a fox.

While she was hugging her boyfriend for a while, Pinkie started to have a strange feeling and she felt her whole body feel warm for some reason. She then lets Israel go and stood back a bit while fanning herself with her hand as she was panting a bit.

“Is… *pant* Is it getting hot in here?” She asked.

"Beats me, but I can always remedy that with a nice, relaxing shower," he offered before turning on the warm water.

“T-Thanks… Izzy. You’re the… best…” Pinkie gasped as she felt herself becoming aroused by something and she felt wet in between her legs. And while the potion was taking effect, Israel made it harder on her by stripping out of his clothes. Thanks to Tempest's training, he's developed some amazing muscle mass, complete with a 6-pack. Pinkie Pie's loins got even wetter from this hot sight.

Just then, to Israel’s and Pinkie’s surprise, her boobs and butt started glowing. And before she knew it, her H-cup breasts were growing to a J-cup; ripping through her shirt and her nipples lactating fresh milk. Her pink booty grew to the size of basketballs; which made Pinkie moan and gasp from the sensation.

"Pinkie? Is something wrong, my little cupcake- oh! Or should I say… "big" cupcake." Israel asked with a sly smirk.

“Wha… What was… Mmmmm… In that… vial?!” She gasped as she continued to moan and gasp in arousal.

"Oh, just a little something to… set the mood… and something to serve as your… punishment, my naughty pudding princess," Israel replied, looking at her directly in the eye. His junk standing tall and proud. "I'll cut to the chase," he whispers, "I heard you blackmailed Celestia to fuck me when you eavesdropped on her and Inferno. And now I'm giving you a taste of your own medicine for manipulating her so… cruelly." He finished by groping one of her lactating boobs. "What do you have to say for yourself, Pinkamena Diane Pie?"

Pinkie could only moan and squirm from the pleasurable feeling she was having while feeling extremely teased at the moment. “P-Please… m-make this feeling stop. It’s… ooh~ so good.” She begged.

"Oh… you mean to stick… this thing inside of you?" Israel teased, referring to his dick. He gave it a few light strokes to allure her. Pinkie's eyes turned to hearts while her tongue lolled out, wanting to taste his bulky popsicle.

“Yes! Please~!” She replied.

"Gee, I don't know. I mean you did betray my friends' mother. But, if you want it, you're gonna have to earn this bad boy. And you can start… by getting down on all fours and sucking it off, got it?" Israel asked before spanking her booty.

Pinkie doesn’t protest, or hesitant, and instantly gets on her knees and takes Israel’s cock into her mouth, and started sucking on it. "Mmm, that's it. Get every inch of this sucker and don't stop until you've drunk my entire load."

Pinkie complies easily, sucking and licking on his shaft like it was an ice cream pop. She was reduced to a slutty mess; only wanting to please her master.

Israel stroked her poofy pink hair and thrust his dick deep down her throat. "You getting a good taste there, girl?" he asked, thrusting faster. "Put some more "oomph" to it. Put those utters to good use. Give it some love with Pinkie's "Pies." he commanded in a sultry tone.

Pinkie nodded and grabbed her massive sugar hooters, trapping his dick in between them. She then proceeds to give him a major boobjob; rubbing her tits up and down his shaft.

"Mmmph!!! Yeah! Like that! Work those milk jugs of yours," he moaned. Pinkie kept doing as her master instructed, tittyfucking him and blowing him all hungrily. Her loins kept burning up more and more. Her juices leaked like crazy. And she wasn't given any choice but to abide by his wishes to get some serious dick. Pinkie couldn't tell if she was in living heaven or hell.

Soon, he could feel his dick growing and balls swelling up, ready to blow. Israel grabbed her by the cheeks and thrust harder down her throat, catching her by surprise. "Drink every drop and I might just relieve some of your horniness," Israel growled in a sultry tone.

Pinkie nodded and bobbed her head back and forth, despite his powerful, harsh thrusts. And after a few more thrusts, his climax came and soon he let out a massive load of his cum down her throat. Pinkie gulped down her master's chunky loads in big gulps, trying not to miss a single drop.

After he finishes, he pulls out of Pinkie's mouth and stands her up. "Good girl. Just for that, I'll help quench some of that heat of yours. Lean up against the wall and whatever you do, don't buckle your legs," he commanded.

Pinkie complied easily, knowing full well that she will now be clenched of her arousal pain. Leaning her back against the wall while she groped her milk-jugs, waiting for his move. Israel got up in her face and groped her massive boobs before sucking on her nipples. He could taste the sweet sensation of her fresh milk.

While enjoying his little treat, he reached behind his sugar sweetie and grabbed her sugar rumps, groping, fondling, and spanking her hard. He couldn't see, but he could tell her bootylicious beach ball ass cheeks were rippling from the harsh spankings.

Pinkie let out satisfied moans and held onto her lover/master. She could feel his dick rubbing against her leaking pussy lips. This felt like torture, but she still loved it so much. After getting bored of the foreplay and decided to get to the fun, Israel brought his shaft and roughly shoved it deep into Pinkie’s womb, causing the party girl to let out a loud-soft moan of ecstasy.

"That's right. Take it all in! Who's my sweet little slutty babe?" he whispered in her ear. But got no response, so he thrust harder. "WHO?" he added to that by groping one of her boobs.

"Me! I… I'm your slutty babe!" Pinkie moaned softly in his ear. She clung to him for dear life, feeling her loins burning from his hot dick messing up her insides. Israel growled like a savage monster, showing Pinkie Pie who's boss.

"Pucker up, baby," he growled, dawning an evil grin. Pinkie Pie complied without question and joined her lips with his. Israel used his incredible strength to lift her off the ground and thrust deeper inside her. Pinkie took the initiative and wrapped her legs around his waist. Pinkie and Israel were both baskings in their heaven. Pinkie had a big dick turning her insides into mush and Israel got to pound a swollen, sweet pussy out of revenge. And revenge has certainly never been sweeter.

As he continued to pound her into submission, Pinkie’s massive boobs lactated more and more milk as it drips onto the floor of the shower room. She had a massive supply of milk and it wasn’t gonna stop pouring out of her.

Israel removed his lips from hers and got back to drinking her breast milk… from both nipples. Pinkie held onto him tighter, feeling her whole body tremble. "I...Izzy! I… I'm sorry that I… blackmailed… Celestia! I… promise to… never do it… again! I… Pinkie Promise!" she moaned and gasped.

Her moaning fell deaf on Israel’s ears as he continued to drink her milk drop by drop while pounding her frail pussy. He sped up his thrusts while looking up at his sex-driven love slave. Her goofy smile turned him on so much.

So much so, his balls built-up pressure down below once again. Pinkie's pussy clamped all around his dick. Both of them were ready to blow. Within a few moments, Israel blew his entire load inside her womb while Pinkie muffled her screams by biting her lip, climaxing all over his massive dick. Then her massive breasts squirt out more and more milk, draining them until they were back to their normal H-cup size; although, her large butt remained the same as a side effect of the liquid she drank.

Israel kept pumping more and more into her until her belly looked to be 8 months pregnant.

"Mmmmph!!! You were amazing," Israel commented, rubbing her soft, bloated belly and smothering her with kisses on the cheeks and lips.

Pinkie had a smile of relief across her face that her unbearable heat had now gone and passed. Israel then set her down and snuggled with her for a while. "So, my cutie Pinkie. Have you learned your lesson?" he asked.

“Y-yes, master~” She replied with a sultry tone.

"Good. That's all I need to know. I love you, Pinkie," he said.

"I love you too," she replied.


Meanwhile, back with the others. "Inferno, what did ya have in mind fer yer new project? Is it some sort o' new gadget or weapon?" AJ asked.

“No, it’s more of a new armor I’m working on. But since I’m using metals that are unintentional; I’m gonna call this a prototype.” Inferno stated. “Or at least in its first stage.”

“So you’re gonna plan on scrapping this once you refill on the Draconium supply?” Rainbow responded.

"I see. So, you're using the titanium and chromium as a way to present the idea of your project before using your draconium, I get it," Twilight said, intrigued.

“Well, that sounds a clever way of to do, Inferno,” Sunset commented. Then she realized something. “Oh wait, we forgot to tell you and Israel something; we ran into Derpy yesterday.” She stated.

Inferno’s eyes widen with surprise, but it was for a good one. “Wait you girls did?!” He replied.

"Yeah, she was working at the Sugar Cafe and we ran into her during lunch," Sunset nodded. "And she told us that she forgave us for what went down the other day."

“Wait really?” Heat responded. “Thats good news.”

“It is… and we also bumped into someone else who was also the secret friend Derpy said she was hanging out with.” Rarity clarified.

“You did? Did they say their name?” Inferno asked.

“Actually… He’s your brother… Silver Scorpion.” Fluttershy replied.

Sadly, hearing that name again just made his smile disappear and then, clenched his fists. “What?” He replied with a stare that could kill. “Are you… Are you telling me that Derpy befriended and is currently hanging out… with my brother!?!?” He asked strictly.

"Yes and I'm pretty sure she knows he has a criminal record but doesn't mind," Twilight said.

“Well, it’s Derpy. She’s too kind of a person,” Applejack proclaimed.

"That's true. But why him of all people?" Inferno asked, frustrated.

“Look we don’t know. But he’s not the only one we ran into,” Rainbow informed the girls.

“We also met Aurora there too. And she’s still mad at us for… well you know.” Sunset stated.

“She also threatened the girls so I wanted to confront her on it; however, Silver got in between me and her; telling me to back off.” Eternal added. “And fun fact, it turns out Silver is the mysterious person that Aurora hangs out with as well. She even bunks with him at his place,” he explained.

"I did not know that," Heat said in surprise.

"Damn it… that bastard!" Inferno said, clenching his fist.

“Who’s the bastard?” A voice called out to them as everyone turned around and see Israel and Pinkie had emerged from the shower room and reunited with the group.

"Oh, Israel! We have some good news. We ran into Derpy yesterday.” Twilight informed the young man.

"D-D-Derpy?" Israel asked, his heart growing heavy. "Is… is she okay?"

"She's better than okay! We saw her working at the Sugar Cafe yesterday! And we have good news, she's forgiven us," Fluttershy added.

"R-Really?" he asked.

"Yup. But we also ran into Aurora, too. And she isn't so forgiving right, unfortunately. And we found out she's been bunking with Inferno's brother, Silver. Hence the reason why he called him a bastard," Twilight responded.

"Let's not forget the other fellow who was there. And he seemed… familiar with Silver," Rarity said, feeling uneasy just thinking about the other guy.

"What other guy?" Israel asked. “And also, why are we bringing up Inferno’s brother?"

“Because it turns out Derpy’s secret friend is Inferno’s brother,” Eternal stated. “He’s even her coworker at Sugar Cafe.”

"Huh, now that's quite the news. Now about this other guy you mentioned, who exactly was it that Silver knew?”

"Uh… you're not gonna believe it, but… his name is… Dark Renegade," Eternal said. Right then and there, Israel's pupils shrunk and his chi surged uncontrollably.

"That… fucking… BASTARD!!!" he yelled before activating his suit using his watch. "I should've known it was that psychotic son of a bitch!"

"Slow down there, Israel. He didn't do anything bad at the restaurant, he was just being chill and minding his own business," Sunset tried to calm him down.

"Yeah, so going after him won't prove anything, aside from making yourself into a villain! Learn to control your temper, this is exactly why Derpy stormed off all scared the other day!" Rainbow said, before covering her mouth.

Everyone in the room was silent after hearing that and didn't want to say a word. And just like that, Israel bolted out of the base and flew out into the city.

"Rainbow, why the fuck do you keep opening that fucking mouth of yours and blabbing out the wrong things?!" Eternal shouted.

“HEY! In her defense, she was slightly right. We need to be better than what we were last two nights ago. We can’t act all aggressive and go out blindly attacking people.” Twilight responded in Rainbow’s defense.

"Like you girls did to Sunset Shimmer without taking her side when she was being attacked by everyone at your school?!" Eternal argued.

“ETERNAL! THAT WAS YEARS AGO!” Sunset shouted at him in irritation for bringing that up which had the girls feeling awful. Inferno didn’t like his tone one bit.

"So? THAT'S still the harsh truth!" Eternal said.

“A harsh truth that we learned years ago. So don’t keep bringing it up in front of my friends.” Sunset responded. “And if you keep on bringing that up; then you, Heat, and Israel; are no longer welcomed here!” She stated to him.

“Whoa! Whoa! Let’s not get hasty here, ok!” Inferno spoke out before turning to Heat. “Wanna help me out here?” He whispered to him; hoping that he could help him stop themselves from ripping each other apart.

"Anything to escape this tense atmosphere," Heat nodded.

But just before the argument could get out of hand, the computer monitors start to make loud sirens and alarms as the scene read: “CRIMINAL ACTIVITY!”

Inferno ran up to the monitor and tapped into the feed. It showed Zoor's androids attacking people at the harbor. "Guys, drop the bickering for now! We've got a job to do! I'm tracking down the location and adding the coordinates to your GPS' on your watches." he said. “I’ll tag along as well to make sure you guys don’t rip into each other.” He stated.

“So where we headin’?” Applejack asked.

“To a fishing port at the Canterlot City Harbor,” Inferno responded.

“Fishing port!? Oh, I just had my hair done.” Rarity groaned, knowing full well that there will be fish and saltwater around that area.

"Sorry, Rares. But when duty calls, we can't bellyache about it," AJ said, patting her gently.

"Let's suit up and move out!" Sunset said in determination.

“Heat, call Israel and tell him to meet us at the harbor.” Twilight instructed her boyfriend.

"No problem," Heat said before contacting his partner. "Israel, its Heat. We just got an emergency alert! Android attack at the harbor."

"Fine, I'm heading back," Israel replied through the intercom.

"Okay, he's got the message. What do we do without him, though?" Heat asked.

"We can either wait or send some of us out to scout the area," Eternal implied. "What do you think, Inferno?”

“Don’t ask me? Sunset’s the leader.” Inferno stated.

"Me?" Sunset asked, the spotlight now on her.

“Yeah, you’re the one Celestia leaves in charge when she’s not here.” Inferno pointed out.

“Well...Ok then. We have 3 of us scout the area. Heat, Twilight, and Rainbow will do the scouting mission. We’ll meet up near the docks and wait to regroup.” Sunset stated.

"Fair enough. We'll let you know about the whole situation. Come on, Heat, Rainbow." Twilight said before dashing out of the base. Heat and Rainbow followed her close behind, heading on their way to the harbor.

"Let's hope they'll be okay," Eternal said.

"I hope so, too. We don't know what Zoor has planned for this attack, so we gotta stay vigilant for the time being," Sunset said.


Meanwhile, as everything was going on, Derpy was working her hours off at her job in the mailing services. She had just finished loading up the mail into the van and was about to deliver them all around the city. Just another average day for her.

"La-dee-dum-dee-dum," she hummed happily to herself before starting up the engine. She put the van in drive and made her way towards her routes. She drove for a minute before she arrived at the downtown district. "Mail time!" she said cheerfully, grabbing one of the bags full of letters and packages. "La-dee-dum, ho-dee-do," she sang adorably.

Derpy walked down the streets and arrived at each address, one by one. She read each letter and package carefully before delivering them before skipping along her merry way. She visited every section of the area and ensure every mail and package was delivered.

Soon she drives on over to a strip mall in the downtown area. Even though it was within walking distance, she drove up close so she wouldn't have to walk a long way back to the van. She did the same thing as she did with the first half of the downtown area, checking each letter and package for the right addresses and then delivered them carefully.

"Muffins, muffins, how I love a muffin," Derpy kept singing. Later on, after finishing her route in the downtown area, it was time for the next area, which happens to be the quiet neighborhood by her school, CHS. She went back to the van with her empty bag and hopped into the driver's seat before taking off.

She then drives over to another neighborhood that was near the one school that once hated her school the most; Crystal Prep. Even though the Friendship Games were put behind her, just looking at the school brought back bad memories. A part of her still couldn't get over how some of those Crystal Prep students made fun of her in previous years. That's one memory she just wishes to forget and bury that memory deep down in the back of her consciousness.

However, she still has a job to carry out. She shook her head and continued on her way to her delivery route.

Once she arrived, she parked the van on a curb before climbing out with another bag full of tons of mail. "Time to make more muffin money," she said before giggling. Derpy walked up and down the streets, delivering the correct mail to each home address.

Derpy checked her watch by the time she finished this route and saw that she had completed this and her downtown route in an hour and a half. After getting the job done, she went over to the van again with another empty bag. She turned on the ignition and drove herself back to the post office. "Phew, another route completed. Just a couple more hours and then… it's Muffin Time!" Derpy said happily.

While she drove, she noticed something flying in the air. It looked like a man in a blue, metallic suit is a type of bright blue glowing light. She looked up, her eyes getting bigger and sparkling brightly at this sight. "Oooh, so pretty!" Derpy said, smiling. But as she soon realized that she had her eyes on the road as she heard honking noises around her. As she had her eyes back on the road, she almost gets into a collision with another car, but luckily she was able to avoid it in time and was back on her course.

Scared out of her mind, Derpy tells herself. “Ok… Not taking my eyes off the road.” She stated.


With Derpy on her way back to the post office, Israel sped up his trip back to the warehouse and even did a few barrel rolls. 5 minutes later, he finally came back and landed just outside the base with a loud, metallic stomp. He opened up the door and walked inside to find some of his friends, watching the monitor. He didn't say a word and checked the video feed on the monitor.

"So, what did I miss?" he asked.

“Well, we had Heat, Twilight, and Rainbow scouting the area of the port to see if there is any android activity or at least know what is their adjective,” Sunset replied. “But we haven’t heard from them since.”

"So, they're either in full stealth mode or… they've been captured." Israel implied.

"Well, we’re hoping for the former,” Sunset responded. “But we can’t wait around and find out. We leave for the docks immediately.” She stated.

"Right behind ya," Applejack nodded.

"Alright then. LET'S MOVE!!!" Sunset commanded. Afterward, she and everyone else suited up and Inferno even got on his gear. And immediately they left the compound and head straight over to Canterlot Harbor.

An hour later, they arrived at the docks of Canterlot Harbor. And when they arrived, the smell of fish and saltwater hit everyone’s noses. And as a precaution, they activated their stealth features on their suits.

"Okay, here's what we need to do. Eternal, you and I will scout the warehouses. The rest of you will check the boat interiors in case the others might be inside," Sunset said via communicators.

“Oh and just in case, if any of you spot a shark, please let me know. Cause whenever I’m near large bodies of water, sharks tend to target me all the time.” Inferno informed them all. “Cause if there’s one other thing, besides gravity, that has a personal vendetta against me… it’s sharks.” He stated.

"Why would sharks hate you?" Fluttershy asked.

“Well let’s just say, I had a close encounter with a Bull Shark… Called him Grumpy… He tried to bite my other arm off. So I took his eye.” Inferno stated. “And whenever I go, he tends to follow. So please give me a heads up.”

"Or, Fluttershy can talk Grumpy Gills out of hurting you," Pinkie recommended.

“It’s a Bull Shark, Pinkie. Its most aggressive shark species on the planet.” Inferno stated.

"Fluttershy's tamed vicious predators before, how hard can a Bull Shark be?" Pinkie asked.

"Don't go putting a spotlight on her so quickly, Pinkie. Even I wouldn't touch a Bull Shark with even a 100-foot pole," Israel replied.

“Well if you met Grumpy. You do not want to go into the water ever again.” Inferno stated.

“Hey! Can we stop talking about sharks and get to the mission here?!” Eternal responded to the three.

“Fine, Mr.Grumpy-Pants.” Pinkie replied.

"Just as a precaution, Israel, Fluttershy, stay close to Inferno in case of a… predatorial attack. Can I trust you with that?" Sunset asked.

"Sure," Fluttershy nodded.

"We'll make sure he's safe," Israel replied.

“I feel safer with Fluttershy than the cosmic mage here, but I’m not complaining,” Inferno said.

“Really dude,” Israel responded, feeling insulted.

“Hey, this is the gal that took down a goddamn bear,” Inferno whispered in reply.

“Yeah, not gonna argue there. She’s my little tough cutie.” Israel replied. "And I'm glad she's got muscle behind those cute looks."

Fluttershy blushed, smiling before they got back on track and searched the harbor. Sunset and Eternal checked the warehouses near the docks while everyone else searched the ships and fishing boats on the docks; hoping to find their friends anywhere.

"Quite the mess this turned out to be. What do you think Zoor's next crazy scheme's gonna be, hunt and destroy all aquatic life?" Eternal joked. "I certainly hope not, the fish they catch out there taste real good."

“She’s want to wipe out humanity. So I’m guessing any other life on Earth is not on her target list.” Sunset replied, not humored by Eternal’s joke due to her grudge against the mother android

"Sorry, guess my goofy buddy's jokes are rubbing off on me at the wrong time," Eternal said. "Anyways, you see anything suspicious?"

"Not yet, but keep your eyes open and your guard up," Sunset replied. The two searched all around the perimeter for any signs of the savage androids or even the head honcho herself.

Meanwhile, with everyone else, they all split up to cover more ground. Rarity, Applejack, and Pinkie searched the east section of the docks; while Israel, Inferno, and Fluttershy searched the west section of the docks,

"Here, droidy-droidy-droidy," Israel whispered while scouting the place.

"Uh… Izzy, I… don't think that's helping our cause," Fluttershy whispered.

“Yeah… Androids are machines. Not dogs.” Inferno pointed out. “Well, unless Zoor decides to make android dogs.” He guessed.

"Oh, that'd give us a… "ruff" time," Israel joked again. "No doubt they'd have a "bone" to pick with us."

“I swear you make another pun again, I’ll kill you before the androids get the chance,” Inferno responded with an annoyed expression.

“Uhhh can we please continue searching for our friends?” Fluttershy spoke out between the two.

"Point taken," Israel nodded.

“Good,” She replied.

Having stopped his little pun charade, the group got back to work on finding their missing friends while remaining ever vigilant.

With the other group; Pinkie, Applejack, and Rarity searched upon a freighter ship. Which was a very boring and irritating search, since those ships are so massive.

"Ugh, must we search the biggest boats on the docks? Why couldn't we just search for them in much smaller boats?" Rarity whined.

"Rarity, this ain't the time or place to be bellyachin' over searchin' big boats," Applejack stated.

"Plus these are our friends we're talking about," Pinkie whispered. “And we’ll search every ship in this port until they are found!” She stated boldly and with pride.

"Good thinkin' there, Pinkie. An' Rarity, the sooner we git our friends back, the sooner you can go out with yer boyfriend, Spike," Applejack said.

“And let him pound that marshmallow booty of yours,” Pinkie teased which had the fashionista blush like crazy.

“P-PINKIE!” She shouted in response while feeling flustered

"Shhhh!!!!!! Pinkie, have ya gone nuts?" AJ whispered.

“What? I’m just playing with her.” the party girl replied.

But before any of the three expected it, Suddenly, a blast of energy came out of nowhere and made direct contact with Pinkie. Electrocuting the party planner before she fell to the ground unconscious.

"PINKIE!!!" AJ shouted before activating her communicator on her watch. "Everyone, Pinkie Pie's been hit. Ah’ re-” Just as she was informing everyone, another energy blast shot at her back and made her unconscious as well.

“APPLEJACK!!!” Rarity screamed with worry before she too was knocked unconscious by another energy blast.

As the three girls laid unconscious on the ship’s deck, unbeknownst to them, three androids emerge from hiding, deactivating their camouflage unit and approaching them. Of course, they were a new generation of androids in Zoor’s faction, and they had much greater intelligence than their previous designs. The three androids then grab the girls and carried them away.

As this was happening, everyone else received AJ’s message before it was cut off. Soon worry and confusion clouded everyone’s mind.

"Applejack? Rarity? Pinkie? Can you girls hear me? Do you copy?" Sunset asked, trying to contact them, but all she got was static. "Everyone, our team's been compromised! We're reverting to our next strategy: scout the area and try to find the androids!"

"Now that's a plan I can get by. I've been dying to kick some android ass!" Israel said, punching the palm of his hand.

“Don’t get too crazy. We still got our friends to worry about, and if they’re still in the area; we need to limit any collateral damage.” Sunset stated over the coms. “So don’t go overboard with the ass-kicking.” She added.

“Did she just made a pun?” Inferno asked Israel and Fluttershy after hearing the word ‘overboard’.

"If she did, it was a damn good one," Israel said. "Now then," he said before activating his chi. "Who's ready to get our friends back and tear those androids to bits?"

"You know I do,” Inferno replied.

“Just keep your chi under control, Izzy. Remember, Sunset said we’re trying not to have any collateral damage.” Fluttershy urged him.

"That shouldn't be a problem," he said before leaping into the air… only to get blasted in the face with an energy blast. Israel spins in the air like those looney cartoon characters and falls flat on the ground, knocked out with a goofy smile.

"Izzy!" Fluttershy shouted in a panic before jumping down to go and check on him.

"Well… that's gotta be humiliating," Inferno said to himself before following behind Fluttershy.

The two ran to Israel’s side and see him not moving a bit. Fluttershy is extremely worried, while Inferno tries his best not to laugh at the goofy face Israel had.

“Is he alright?!?!” Fluttershy asked.

“He’s fine. Whatever that blast was, it just knocked him out.” Inferno stated before he sees another blast coming out of nowhere, and heading straight for Fluttershy. “LOOK OUT!!!” He shouted as he pushes the animal lover out of the way and takes the blast in her place, knocking him unconscious as well.

"INFERNO!!!" Fluttershy shouted, panicking even more. Fluttershy's panicking escalated even further to where she became paranoid and just as one of the androids revealed themselves and aimed at her… she fainted out of fear.

And you can bet the android was confused about what just happened. But either way, it carried the unconscious bunch with it to the secret spot.

"Fluttershy? Fluttershy, what happened? Are you okay?!" Sunset shouted on the comms.

“What the hell is going on?!” Eternal asked.

"Something tells me we've been set up. This whole thing is a trap!" Sunset said in realization.

"I figured as much. This must've been her plan along. She's after us and I'll bet she's using some brand new androids with some sneaky stealth tech." Eternal said, clenching his fist.

“I think you’re being exaggerated?” Sunset responded before that statement of hers is proven to be dead wrong when an energy blast comes out of nowhere, forcing her to jump out of the way. But in doing so, the blast hits Eternal, knocking him against a wall hard. He slumped down, groaning as he slowly lost consciousness. "ETERNAL, NO!" She headed over to her knocked-out boyfriend. Sadly, with her guard down, the androids aimed and blasted her, making her yelp in surprise before falling right into Eternal's lap. She looks up at him, trying to reach out to him, but she wound up losing consciousness.

The last thing she saw is androids surrounding the two and looking down at them.


After an hour of darkness, soon a light shined in front of her. However, it wasn’t that kind of light, but rather her vision coming back to her as Sunset wakes up sees a bright light shined into her eyes. But after seeing into the light more clearly… she could now tell that it was a suspended ceiling light panel.

"Wha… What's going on? Where… am I?" Sunset groaned, regaining consciousness. She sat herself up to take a look at her surroundings. And all she could see were walls in all directions… well besides the energy ray shield. "Where… where are my friends?" she asked, looking around the place.

Her question was answered when she heard painful groaning right behind her. And when she turned around, she saw all her friends and the boys; including Twilight, Heat, and Rainbow; all waking up and feeling sore in all places that they never knew they had.

“Why do I feel like I got ran over by a truck?” Rainbow asked.

"I dunno, but… ow! My head is splitting," Heat groaned, rubbing his head.

"I think the books finally hit me back," Twilight groaned, slowly getting up.

"Guys, it looks like I made an error in our plan. Zoor set a trap for us and captured us! I'm sorry I got you all into this mess," Sunset said, wracked with guilt.

“It is not your fault, darling. You didn’t know this was gonna happen; none of us did.” Rarity assured her.

“Yeah, don’t beat yourself up,” Pinkie added.

As this discussion continued, Israel finally wakes up "Okay, that was embarrassing. Next time, I'm keeping my guard up when I activate my chi. Speaking of which," he said before trying to activate it again. But this time, it fizzled out. He tried again, but it didn't work. "Uh, guys… My powers aren't working," he said, panicking.

“You kidding me?” Eternal responded in disbelief. "Maybe we can try using our gear," he said before trying to activate his suit, but nothing happened. "What?! My suit's disabled!"

"Zoor must've done something to render them useless," Sunset implied.

“So… we’re stuck in here?” AJ asked. Sunset nodded in reply.

As for Israel, still in disbelief that his powers were no longer working, started looking around the room and began to feel like something is off. And when he looked at everyone in the room, he instantly realized that Fluttershy wasn’t in there with them.

"Fluttershy? FLUTTERSHY?! Guys, Fluttershy's not here!" he panicked.

"And neither is Inferno!" Applejack said in realization.

“Well, where are they?!” Twilight asked.

“I think the better question you should ask yourselves… Is how do you plan on escaping?” A familiar voice responded to them all. And it came from the other side of the ray shield.

"Oh no, I recognized that voice anywhere," Twilight said, her eyes shrinking.

Soon everyone turned towards the ray shield that separates them from freedom, and standing on the other side staring at them were was a sentry android with two of the new-gen androids standing beside it. The sentry android’s visors and mouth were glowing bright red and that same voice came from its voice unit.

“Enjoying the new room. Sorry that it wasn’t first-class… I didn’t have the time to install any additional features.” Zoor’s voice spoke to them.

"I prefer functionality over comfort, but I digress. So, what's the deal with the surprise meeting?" Israel asked, trying to stay calm. "I don't suppose this is a social gathering."

“It’s a way I can ensure you stay out of the way of my plans and that a failed generation like you won’t interfere with what’s inevitable,” Zoor replied calmly.

"Well, ain't that a surprise. You hear that, girls? She did all this for us. Don't we feel special," Rainbow said sarcastically.

“You’ve been a thorn in my side for far too long. And I grow tired of your arrogance and stubbornness every single day.” Zoor stated calmly.

"Well, excuse us for trying to save the people in this world!" Rarity retorted.

"And where's Fluttershy and Inferno? What have you done with them?!" Twilight demanded.

“Oh? You mean the inventor and the animal caretaker; to be honest I was willing to set her free after seeing her records after hearing her name… as well as all of you. But… I also know that you all will continue to annoy me. So I needed to set an example.” Zoor explained as she and her two androids beside her move out of the way to reveal Inferno and Fluttershy both tied together and hanging from the ceiling, over what seems to be a sizable pool of saltwater.

The group also catch a glimpse of how many androids were in the building. There were about 20 of them hovering in the air next to Inferno and Fluttershy. And about 60 all on the ground and standing in rows beside the pool.

“Whoa… Talk about a full house.” Pinkie stated.

"Zoor, this doesn't have to be this way! Just please, let our friends go! They don't deserve this kind of punishment!" Sunset pleaded.

“As I said before, I was willing to allow your friend to leave; however, due to her good nature, she would return and set you all free, and thus I would have to deal with you’re annoyance even more. And that I cannot allow.” Zoor replied. “Though you don’t have much to worry… your friends up there will be fine… well unless you decide to do something. You see I fitted the walls of this high-tech cell with sensors that would detect any activity in it, and when it does, it sends information to the automated crane that is currently holding those two up there. So if one of you were to try and shatter the walls or dig your way out… the crane will lower the inventor and your friend down into the water below them… with one of the oceans’ most deadly predators.” She explained.

And on cue, the group could hear splashing in the water of the pool. And see several fins breaking its surface and circling or moving through the water. Instantly they all realize what they are… they were sharks. But not just any sharks… Bull Sharks.

"Oh no!" Sunset panicked.

"Zoor, that's low! Even for you!" Heat called out.

“Oh really… Not like any of you. Israel here watches videos that involved the physical and mental suffering of others. While Eternal Flames here had multiple criminal records that involved him getting in fights and disputes that left others in hospitals while he got out unscathed. And young Twilight here was a victim of abuse and peer pressure from her old school. And you five girls abandon and discarded one of your own because you felt exposed and ashamed of your deepest secrets seen by all. Tell me that I can’t go lower than that.” Zoor pointed out.

"How… DARE you! Okay, so maybe we're not all perfect, and go ahead and attack us all you want with your mechanized minions, but when you insult my lady and our friends, you've just officially dug your own GRAVE!!!" Eternal shouted in rage. So much so that he slammed his fists against the ray shield; which sent a shock in his hand.

And it unknowingly caused the chain reaction that Zoor had explained earlier, and soon the crane that held Fluttershy and Inferno, lowering them until there were 30 feet over the water. Which then wakes up the two from their sleep.

“Wha-WHAT?! What the fuck is going on?!” Inferno stated as he shook his head around before looking towards the ground. “Oh shit.” He said, but soon he repeats that word when he looks down at the water he and Fluttershy are hanged over and see what was swimming in it. “OH SHIT!!!” He shouted. “OH FUCK NO!!!”

"Mmm… wha… what's going on?" Fluttershy asked, looking around. She then looked down and saw that she was above a shark tank. "Eep!" she yelped.

“Out of all the things I could meet my end! Why did it have to be GODDAMN SHARKS!!!” Inferno shouted more. Until his mind was sidetracked by something that his hand was feeling. It was incredibly soft, but he didn’t know what it was.

"Inferno, whatever you do, just don't wiggle too much! We'll find a way out of this, just… just give me some time to figure it out!" Twilight said hesitantly.

“OH, THAT’S HELPFUL!!! YOU’RE NOT THE ONE THAT’S HANGING OVER A SHARK TANK!!!” Inferno shouted in response.

“W-We’ll be okay,” Fluttershy responds to her friends; though she doubted her statement.

"Zoor, you meanie! You won't get away with this! DO YOU HEAR ME!!! YOU WON'T GET AWAY WITH THIS!!!" Pinkie shouted, pulling out some cupcakes from her hair, crushing them in her hands, and then shoving them into her mouth, giving her a frosting beard.

“Awww, isn’t that cute? Well, if you all don’t mind… I have somewhere to be.” Zoor stated in response as the red glow in the android’s visors reverted to blue as Zoor’s AI left its system.

"Damn it! Damn it! DAMN IT!" Sunset shouted, pounding her fist against the ground. "I can't believe she got us! And we were so close to beating her!"

But of course, Sunset slamming on the ground caused the sensors to activate again and the automatic crane lowers Inferno and Fluttershy another 3-feet.

“AHH! Whatever you guys are doing in there, knock it off or you’re gonna lower us down to our deaths!!!” Inferno shouted.

“Please for the love of all that’s good! Stop!” Fluttershy raises her voice as well.

And again, Inferno becomes sidetracked when he once again felt the mysterious soft object again. “Ok, either they had a puppy tied along with us… or my hand is tied against a very soft, smooth pillow?” He said to himself which Fluttershy could hear.

"U-Uh… I-I-Inferno, Ummm… that's… n-n-not a pillow it's… umm," Fluttershy stuttered, blushing a lot.

And at that moment, Inferno instantly got the picture. His entire face turned bright red and he wanted to stop grabbing onto Fluttershy's bootylicious bottom…. But there was a small problem; He can’t. The ropes that tied them together was so tight that it restricted them of moving any of their limbs.

“Uhhhhhh… F-F-Fluttershy.” Inferno stuttered the same way as the animal lover. “You know I would never do something like that to you… or ruin your relationship with Israel… So please don’t be mad at me when I say that I’m unable to move my hand.” He stated with an anxious tone.

"It's… uh… it's fine," Fluttershy replied before her body jolted some more and yelped cutely.

“Sorry! Just trying to get it free but it failed!” Inferno silently said to her.

“Hey what’s going on up there?” Heat asked from the cell down below. And soon he is met with Fluttershy and Inferno shouting back.

“NOTHING!!!!”

"Jeez, you don't have to bite my head off, it was just a question," Heat said, backing off.

"Ugh… I'm drawing a blank, I can't find any sort of solution to getting out of here!" Twilight said, breaking down.

"We can't give up now! We can't let Zoor win!" Rainbow objected.

"She already has," Sunset shook her head left and right. "Let's face it, anything we do to try and escape, we'll just wound up endangering Fluttershy and Inferno. She's outwitted us this time. There's nothing we can do now.”

“D-D-Don’t w-w-worry! T-T-There’s still… H-H-Hope!” Fluttershy assured her friend, while overwhelmed with feeling flustered and embarrassed in the situation she’s in.

“And I hope it comes very soon,” Inferno honestly said while struggling helplessly to get his hand free which only had Fluttershy yelp again and again.


Meanwhile, outside of the girl’s secret base, Aurora had brought Silver with her to the place where his brother would be. "Well, here we are," she said.

Silver stares at the building for a long while as he’s overcome with disbelief and confusion; combined with anxiousness and fear of seeing his little bro again after 5 years.

“Inferno comes here?” He asked Aurora in shock at what the place looked like.

"That's right. This is where he does his best work. Follow me inside and you'll see what kind of work he does," Aurora said.

“I just… I just can’t believe it. I left him alone for 5 years and now he doesn’t wanna see me. Now here I am… Trying to make things right.” Silver said. “Even though it would be harder than I expected.”

“Well, it won’t hurt until you try, right?” Aurora responded.

“What about you though? Are you sure you’re ready to confront them once again? If it’s true that they are currently hanging out with Inferno.” Silver asked the dragoness.

"It's a bitter pill to swallow, but I'll deal with it," Aurora confirmed.

Silver reaches out his hand to hold Aurora’s and looks up at the dragoness with a comforting smile. “Then I’m with ya all the way.” He stated. Aurora smiled back at her mate and followed him inside the base. Once inside, Silver took in the sight of everything around him. All the high-tech stuff is set up.

He was surprised by all of this. So much so that he looked towards Aurora with astonishment and disbelief in his eyes.

“Inferno made all this?” He asked. The dragoness nodded in reply which had Silver gasping and chuckling at this. “Even after 5 years, he still keeps on surprising me.”

"He's a very gifted young man," Aurora said. "But… it doesn't look like he or any of his friends are here."

Silver also takes notes of this as there was a deafening silence in the building and from the looks of the objects and equipment in the place looked to be untouched.

“Yeah… Where is everyone?” He said silently before he raises his voice loudly that it echoed throughout the building. “HELLO!?!?!” He called out to whoever was in the building.

"Perhaps they went out or something," Aurora said. "Let me see if I can check all the rooms.” She stated as she walked deep into the corridors of the place and investigate.

Silver waited patiently and all alone in the main room of the warehouse. As he was waiting, his eyes wander around the place in boredom. "I wonder if he's purposely avoiding me and knew I was coming," she muttered to himself. Just then, he heard the door open and he turned around. "Bro?" he asked. But to his disappointment and surprise, it was Derpy. “Oh, Derpy. It’s just you,” he said.

"Silver? What a surprise!" she said with a cute smile. "What brings you here to Inferno's base? Did you come to say hello to your brother?"

“Well I was, Aurora brought me over here, only to find out the place is empty.” Silver replied.

"Hmm, maybe they're on a muffin run. Oh, I know, maybe I can find them on this," Derpy said before going over to the main monitor.

Silver followed behind while being curious and confused. “Do you even know how it works? My brother invented this.” He commented.

"I think so. This shouldn't be too hard," Derpy said as she pressed a few buttons. Unfortunately, she wound up turning on the music stereo. "Oop, wrong button. Maybe this one," she said, pressing another button, but that one opened up one of the walls, revealing Inferno's prototype armor project, well technically it was covered by a black tarp, but at least it’s known to them. "Nopesies. Ooh, maybe this big red button," she said before pressing it. Finally, she got the monitor on and it revealed live footage of the gang trapped inside a building surrounded by a bunch of androids.

Aurora gasped at what's happened to the group. "Oh no! This… This can’t be happening!?” She exclaimed.

“What? Who are they?” Silver asked.

“They’re my friends! And they’re in danger!” Derpy stated while beginning to worry.

“Wait? Those are your friends?” Silver asked in disbelief while staring at the screen. “Well, why the Hell are they dress up like the knock-off version of the Avengers? And are they…” Before he could say anymore as he instantly recognized one of the people, which was Israel Yabuki, Dark’s younger brother. “Why is Dark’s brother with them?” he asked Derpy.

"Because he's a member of the Victory Squad, he fights to protect people," Derpy said.

“You mean he’s one of those vigilante maniacs?” Silver responded. He has heard of the Victory Squad ever since he got out of prison, but he never really liked them. Mostly because hearing about them was a painful reminder of his times as a vigilante with Dark. And also the fact that whenever they go, trouble follows. And now knowing that Derpy was friends with them… He’s gonna have a few words with them, especially Israel. But another thought was on his mind. “Great! When Dark hears about this, he’s never gonna let me hear the end of it.” he thought in his mind.

As he continued to watch the screen, he then sees something that had him frighten and extremely in panic mode. On the screen, he sees two people tied together and hanging from the ceiling. One of them is a light-pink-haired girl and the other… is his brother, Inferno!

“INFERNO!” He shouted out of exaggeration. “What’s he doing there?!” He asked the two ladies beside him.

“I don’t know?! I don’t even know what is going on?!” Derpy responded.

“Well, I’m heading over there and find out! Derpy try and see if you can locate where they're at!” Silver instructs her as he walks away from the monitors and straight towards the door.

“Uh ok… I’ll try,” She replied anxiously.

Silver paid no heed and walked straight to the door of the hideout; however, he is halted in place for some strange reason and soon his focus is turned towards the tarp-covered object in the place. Feeling drawn towards it, Silver paces towards whatever it is and he instantly pulls the tarp off to reveal what appears to be a set of armor. Silver was awed and surprised by its design; made from silver-titanium and chromium. The chest plate, shoulder pads, and gauntlets were based on the traditional armor that was worn by the samurai. The greaves were padded with titanium and chromium as well. There was also a dark-grey fabric underneath the armor which also had a hood and face mask.

"Uh, Silver… you do realize that might be your brother's armor," Aurora pointed out.

Silver continued to stare at the armor before he started to remove it off the mannequin that it was displayed on. “Then I hope he doesn’t mind I use it to save his ass.” He stated as he carried the armor in his hands and walked towards the door. “Aurora, take us back to our apartment. There’s something I need to pick up from there… And… I need to make a call.” He said as he walked out the door with determination on his face.

A determination that is fueled by the overprotective nature of an older brother scorned.


Meanwhile, back at the harbor, the rest of the heroes were still locked in their cell while Inferno and Fluttershy were still hanging from their position, with the two at their most ‘bottom’ situation. And yes, that was an intended pun. Speaking of the two, they were still trying to ignore the fact of Inferno’s hand rubbing against Fluttershy’s butt. However, it only made them more aware of it and made them even more flustered.

“You know, Fluttershy. If somehow we do drop to our watery death or die of dehydration. I want to let you know; in honesty, cause I’m ashamed of thinking it. Your butt is incredibly soft. There I said it.” Inferno softly spoke to the animal lover.

"Oh, uh… th...thank you, I guess," Fluttershy said, blushing.

“And I also want to say that I admired your kind nature and bravery even in the most horrible situations; like the one, we’re in. And your admiration of showing others compassion even when they believe that they don’t need it.” Inferno spoke once again.

"That's… sweet of you, but what about Applejack and Tempest? Surely their butts are just as good," Fluttershy asked, considerately.

“Well yes, they are. They’re incredible. But yours is like theirs combined; which makes it even special like theirs.” Inferno honestly stated.

"Oh… my," Fluttershy said, blushing deeply and smiling some more.

“But that’s not what I wanna talk about fully. It’s just… after when you girls told me about Derpy’s friendship with... Silver. I… began to have doubts… Doubts in my hate towards him. I deeply despise him for abandoning me and not caring for me as a brother should. And yet when you girls told me about Derpy’s relationship with him…. Which sounded like… he was no longer that person I despised so much. That perhaps maybe… maybe he does wish to make things right in our relationship. But… I… I somehow can’t find it in my heart to forgive him or give him any compassion. This is why I… wished I was like you, Fluttershy. You always seem to show compassion to people, no matter what terrible past they had. And you forgave those who tormented you and don’t hate them for it. I wish I had that personality. But I guess I’m different.” Inferno explained.

"Inferno… you don't have to have my personality traits to be a better person. You're already a great man in your way. You came into our lives as a troubled, lost soul. But you were always there for us when we needed you most. Our lives wouldn't be the same without you. You're smart, independent, and most importantly, you have a heart of gold." Fluttershy assured.

“Thanks, Fluttershy,” Inferno replied with a smile. “Guess Israel was right. You are a tough and pure-hearted cutie. I bet it must be hard trying to get his attention when he’s busy with hero work, chasing for Derpy’s attention, and balancing your relationship with pinkie and you.” He commented.

"It's hard being his girlfriend, but the way he made me satisfied me in the shower that day… makes it all worthwhile. He may be a hopeless romantic… and a big softy towards cute girls similar to me, but that just means he's good at spreading the love," Fluttershy said. Of course, Israel could hear her and felt like he'd been a real jackass for ignoring his first girlfriend.

'Damn it. I'm so stupid! Have I been neglecting her that much?' he thought to himself.

“Well let me tell ya, being in a relationship is hard. Ever since I dated AJ and Tempest, I tried my best to give them both as much attention they deserved and I try to be as loyal as I can be. But with all this stuff happening, it was more difficult to keep that promise. And with AJ and Tempest busy with their daily lives, it was hard for me to give them the love and caring they needed. In that amount of time, I had no one to care for or be there for. Instead, I just sat around at the hideout doing nothing but stare at my computer. Like it feels… like I’m locked in a cage.” Inferno expressed his thoughts to the animal lover.

"You did?" Fluttershy asked, concerned. "Why didn't you tell us?"

“Well… I wanted to. But you all are too busy with your daily lives and relationships; while I barely have life and struggling to find purpose in my relationship. I just… felt like I was limited for strange reasons and that I feel hollow in my heart.” He stated.

"Oh, Inferno… I'm so sorry we made you feel that way," Fluttershy replied, tears wallowing up in her eyes. "If we… get out of this alive. I promise… we'll try to give you more freedom." she was about to weep.

“Hey, don’t cry. Besides I’m sure none of you meant to make me feel this way. I guess finally being a part of a group for once made me start to feel like I can finally feel normal for once. Besides, meeting you girls was the best day of my life; it was the day I got a second chance and I can know what it’s like to feel free of myself.” Inferno stated. “So how about you shows us a smile?” he asked while furthering it with his hand squeezing her butt as a tease to get her to no longer feel unhappy; being a practical joker for her.

She yelped before looking over her shoulder with her cutest smile and squee. “You dirty jokester.” She chuckled lightly.

“Hey it got you to feel happy, didn’t it. Though I won’t do it again if it makes you feel even better,” he replied. “If we can get out of here.”

"You're very sweet," Fluttershy said. Though in her mind, she can’t help but wonder. That show of personality Inferno showed, was almost like the personality Israel had when they were in the shower. Which left her puzzled but she simply shrugged it off.

Waiting for silence for a few seconds, Inferno looks down at the cage the others were in and calls down on them. “HEY! You guys good!?” He asked.

"I guess you could say that," Sunset nodded.

"Sort of," Pinkie added.

"I'm still breathing, darling," Rarity said.

"Right as rain fer now," AJ added.

"Barely," Rainbow sighed, bored.

"I'll live for now," Twilight confirmed.

"A little hungry, but I'm fine," Eternal said.

"Yeah, just contemplating my thoughts," Heat replied, bored.

"Uh… sure," Israel added, keeping his eyes on Fluttershy.

“Yeah, well, we’re gonna be here for a while,” Inferno responded.

“No shit,” Rainbow replied with sarcasm.

'I swear with every bone in my body. I'll start treating Fluttershy like a queen,' he thought to himself as his body trembled.

“Well, there must be something we can do?” Fluttershy suggested.

“I wish there was Fluttershy; but we’re tied up, locked up, and being watched,” Inferno stated, with his statement being proved when he and Fluttershy turned their heads and see 3 androids staring at them silently.

It made Fluttershy uncomfortable while it ticked off Inferno.

“HEY TIN CANS! TAKE A PICTURE! IT’LL LAST LONGER!!!” he shouted which convinced the androids to back off and fly down to the ground to watch over the cell the others were in.

After landing, the androids walked up to the cell, staring at the prisoners inside it.

“Great. Now they’re staring at us.” Rarity said.

"That's right… look into my eyes. Because if we get out of here, I'm going to shred… your… fucking… circuits," Israel said in a low, calm, angry tone, hiding part of his eyes in his hair. His chi was still disabled, but his threats gave off bad vibes.

"Yikes, remind me not to piss him off," Rainbow whispered to Applejack.

The androids simply paid no heed to his threats and seemingly just continued to guard their cell. Israel continues to stare into the eyes of the one in front of him. But soon their staring contest is cut short when out of nowhere, a small blade pierced through its head and fell to the ground in front of them.

Just then, the whole gang heard what sounded like large wings flapping outside the building, followed by clanking metal and feet landing on a hard surface. The androids in the building hear this and they all gathered in the center of the room.

"What was that?" Rainbow asked.

"I don't know, but for our sake, let's hope it's someone on our side," Twilight said.

And after she said that, a mysterious figure falls from the ceiling and lands directly in the center of the army of androids.

"You guys done fucked up now. I hope you're ready. . . for your punishment," the man said, showing his face. It was Dark Renegade, but he looked different. His eyes were dilated and his long, black hair was even wilder and extremely feathered out, and has a psychotic, toothy grin dawned on his face. His finger was fidgety.

Israel was stunned and shocked to see his older brother right in front of them "You? What the hell are you doing here?! How did you find us?" he asked.

“Saving you! You’re welcome!” Dark responded.

Soon all the androids raised their blasters at Dark, preparing to fire until everyone in the building hears that same metal clanking from early. And from out of nowhere, another mysterious figure leaped from behind the crates and storage containers, landing behind the army of androids and receiving everyone’s attention and stares.

The mysterious person stands up straight as it stares at the androids with a serious, yet calm gaze. As everyone stared at this newcomer, seeing that the armor he’s wearing was almost like the modern version of samurai armor. When Inferno got a good glimpse of the armor the person was wearing, he realized that it was the armor prototype he was working on.

"What is he doing with my prototype?” He muttered to himself in question.

The androids were curious and alerted of this intruder and half of them turned away from Dark and face the mysterious individual, raising their blasters and pulling out their plasma blades.

“Identify yourself.” One of the androids spoke out to the individual.

The armored person stares at the androids in front of him as he moves his right hand to his belt and then he pulls out a titanium-bladed katana and later gets into an ‘In No Kamae’ stance. Then the person finally speaks.

“Call me… the Scorpion Rōnin,” He responded. His voice did prove that he was a male; however, it was hard for them all to identify his face as it sounded deeper and like he was speaking through a voice modulator. The new-gen androids, or Nin-droids as the preferred way to identify them, all raised their plasma blades at the individual.

In response to this, the Scorpion Rōnin then switches to a “Ko Gasumi” stance. A silent stand-off lasted for about a minute before the fight kicks off with blades clashing.

Dark takes this as a “green light” and reaches into his black vest; pulls out and slings out three throwing knives at the closest androids - striking them in the heads - and cutting them off their cybernetic lives.

"Try not to leak oil, you tin-canned pussies. It's not every day the Massacre Phantom comes out of his RETIREMENT!!!" Dark shouted. Then reaching into his pockets, he pulled out these spiked leather gloves and the spikes looked to be an inch long and could puncture deep. He rushed at high speeds, punching through one of the other androids' abdomen, and forced his fist up with an uppercut, knocking it into the air and made it crash-land on one of the other androids.

As with the Scorpion Rōnin, he was slicing androids down like there were nothing. His swordsmanship skills were different and superior to the skills that were programmed into the androids. He clashed and deflected a few attacks in terms of defense before slicing his cybernetic foes in half or pieces. As he was fighting he kept switching fighting styles and techniques in the fight; making it extremely hard for the androids to focus on one and identify it. And their programming can process information within a nanosecond.

Then out of nowhere, a massive Titan android mech emerges from one of the containers. Its cyclops eye glowed red and fires a laser beam at the Scorpion Rōnin. But at that moment, the vigilante did something that made everyone shocked. With a distance of 30-meters in between him and the android mech and a time of 5-seconds for the laser beam to reach him. The Scorpion Rōnin turns around and raises his sword to deflect the laser that was aimed at him.

"How'd he do that?!" Pinkie asked, shocked.

"Don't ask me, I'm no expert in science," Rarity said, surprised by his moves.

The ronin warrior continues to deflect the laser as the titan android continues its attack. But soon it hears flapping noises when out of nowhere, Aurora glides into the room and slammed into the 12-foot android mech with enough force to send it flying into some nearby ship containers.

"It's Aurora! She's back! Guys hit the deck, things could get a little messy!" Heat warned before getting to the ground and covering his head.

“How we gonna hit the deck, Heat!?! You guys are locked in a fucking cell, while Fluttershy and I are tied up and hanging right here!” Inferno shouted at him in response.

“It does sound like helpful advice,” Fluttershy suggested.

“Yeah, it does,” Inferno replied in defeat. “If… WE WEREN’T HANGING RIGHT HERE!”

"WELL EXCUSE ME FOR LIVING!!!" Heat yelled back.

“HEAT!!!! WOULD YOU SHUT UP!!!” Fluttershy shouted in response, finally starting to lose her cool. “YOU KNOW I’M FUCKING SICK OF HEARING YOU PIECE OF SHITS ARGUING WITH EACH OTHER EVERY DAY WHEN YOU SHOULD BE WORKING TOGETHER!!! SO SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH!!!!” She shouted with anger, hysteria, and loads of adrenaline.

". . .whoa… point taken, Flutters," Israel said, feeling himself shrink.

“And now I’m deaf!” Inferno shouted out of fear and his ears ringing after having Fluttershy screaming next to them.

“Oops… Sorry, Inferno.” Fluttershy responded while feeling like her timid self again.

Barely hearing what she said, Inferno replied with shouting again. “What!!!”

As their conversation was going on, Dark and rōnin vigilante continued to face off against their captors while Aurora demolished the larger mechs that appeared in the room.

"Just like the old times, huh partner?" Dark asked as he's pounding another android's circuits into scrap metal with his spiked gloves. "Still, what are we gonna do with those two?" he referred to Inferno and Fluttershy in their tied-up situation.

The rōnin looks up at the two hanging from the ceiling, soon a plan forms in his head. “Get ready to grab them,” he said as he left Dark’s side and leaped onto many crates and containers at tremendous speed until he takes one giant leap into the air and moves closer and closer to Inferno and Fluttershy.

And with a swift slash of his katana, he cuts the two free and leaves them falling straight towards the shark-filled water tank below. The inventor and the timid girl screamed in horror as they fell faster towards the shark-infested waters.

Dark lunged at them and grabbed them just in time before they hit the big splash. He landed on the ground and cut them loose of the ties that bind their arms and legs. "Couldn't leave you guys hanging around, now could I?" he joked.

“While I’m grateful that you saved us… But don’t even use that joke, please.” Fluttershy replied, not humored by the joke Dark made.

As for Inferno, he brings his hand up to his view and flops onto the floor. “Finally... Free.” He muttered.

“You're welcome Mr. Gropy," Dark replied in a whisper before looking over at the cage.

Fluttershy and Inferno stare at him with flustered and confused expressions on their faces.

“How do you know about the…” Fluttershy tried to ask, but couldn’t.

"These eyes see all… but first, how do we get them outta there?" Dark asked, referring to his trapped brother and his friends.

Inferno and Fluttershy got up from the ground and follow Dark up to the cage as Inferno observes the touch padlock on the outside wall of the cell.

“Well, I can try and short circuit the lock or hack it to disable the ray shield. Or…” Inferno is then stopped by Dark who pulls him out of the way, takes out one of his throwing knives, and pierces it into the touch padlock, damaging it to a point where it malfunctions and the ray shields shut down, allowing the others to be free.

“Or just stab it,” Inferno commented.

"At least they're free now," Dark shrugged.

"Good… because now, I can do THIS!" Israel shouted before his chi skyrocketed.

"LET'S LIGHT 'EM UP, LADIES!!!" Pinkie shouted.

"VICTORY SQUAD, ATTACK!!!" Eternal shouted.

Hearing their prisoners had been set free and knowing that it was a death wish to face them. All the androids in the building make a hasty retreat and ran away. The stranglers that were left behind, were sliced down by the Scorpion Rōnin as they fly past him. Soon the only androids that were left in the building were destroyed or turn to scrap piles.

After seeing their foes leave in fear, the group was left disappointed and confused. "Damn it, I was looking forward to kicking some android ass!" Rainbow said, stomping her foot.

"Guess they'd prefer to be a healthy chicken… than a dead duck," Pinkie shrugged.

"Bottom line is they're gone and we're all safe and sound. And we owe our thanks to you three for saving us," Sunset said to Dark, Aurora, and the hooded figure.

Dark smiled in reply while waving in a friendly manner. Trying to make good impressions.

Aurora simply gave them a blank look; still holding a grudge against them, but it wasn’t aggressive. So, there’s still a lot to work with.

"By the way, that armor you're wearing… didn't that come from our base?" Heat asked. The Scorpion Rōnin does not reply and remains silent.

"If it did, then how did he find out where it was?" Eternal asked.

"There's the only person, or… being that knows where our base is beside us. And she's still not happy with us," Israel gestured to Aurora.

“Saved your butts, didn’t it.” She replied with a calm yet unamused tone.

"Yes and we're all thankful for your help," Fluttershy nodded. "Right, everyone?" she asked, turning to everyone with a stern stare.

"Oh yes, very grateful," Rarity nodded with a nervous giggle.

"Ah'm eternally grateful!" AJ added, taking her hat off.

"Yup-a-roonie!" Pinkie said, standing frozen stiff from the Stare.

"Uh, y-yeah, that's right!" Rainbow said nervously, sweating bullets.

"Of course, why wouldn't we be?" Twilight nodded.

"I did express my gratitude, so of course I'm grateful," Sunset added with a nod.

“Ditto!” Inferno stated.

"No doubt about it," Heat responded.

"Sure, why not," Eternal shrugged, but was hiding how scared he was of her Stare.

"Oh yeah… definitely," Israel said, unable to look away.

"Good. Now then… shall we leave this place?" Fluttershy asked before giggling cutely.

Dark was intimidated by Fluttershy’s stare and he does his best not to speak a word. ‘And I thought I was frightening?’ He thought in his mind.

“Sure thing,” Sunset replied before turning to their three saviors. “Wanna tag along.”

"Thought you'd never ask. What do ya say… partner?" Dark asked, turning to his cloaked partner, smirking.

The ronin turns to stare at the group in front of him and then towards Inferno. “I might as well,” he responded. Dark nodded and escorted his partner, along with his girlfriend, and followed the group out of the warehouse, then headed off to their safe place.


After regrouping back at the base and putting that whole mess behind them, Inferno decided to have a few words with the cloaked figure. At this very moment, Inferno was pacing the room, trying to find the right words to say to the man who helped save his life. The others just watched from afar as Derpy handed them some muffins to enjoy.

“So… While you saving us is a welcomed action. However, taking my project without my permission is not welcomed in my book. Also, how are you in league with Aurora? And why did she bring you here? And how did you manage to get the infamous Massacre Phantom himself to aid you?” Inferno asked.

"It's… a long story. I'm sorry I borrowed your armor, but if I tried to rescue you without any sort of protection, I would've been destroyed. Besides, you might not want to know who I am.” the Scorpion Rōnin explained.

"And why's that?" Inferno asked. "Why would I not want to know who you are? Just show me who you are."

The rōnin individual was hesitant at first, and silent for a while. Later, he lets out a deep sigh, which sounded to be one of despair. The individual then removes his hood off his head to reveal his… gray-silver hair. And then he pulls down his face mask, to reveal his face. Everyone in the room; besides Aurora, Dark, and Derpy; held surprised expressions on their faces and gasped a bit when they see the Scorpion Rōnin’s true identity… Silver Scorpion.

"I should've known," Inferno said, glaring.

Silver shrugged his shoulders while not having the guts to look at his younger brother. “Well… I never wanted our reunion to be like this. Even though you and your friends were in danger.” He replied.

"5 years… 5 whole years, you abandoned us! You took up a life of crime and for what? You owe me an explanation and I want it now," Inferno demanded.

Silver felt defeated and remorseful in his heart, almost hesitant to answer. However, that changed when Aurora, Derpy, and Dark left the group’s huddle and walked over to stand by his side to give him support and comfort. Which it did.

While he never cared about his older brother but just seeing Derpy standing and hugging Silver, caused Israel to feel a strange feeling of envy in his mind. He wanted to explode right then and there, but he had to hold it in. He couldn't stand to scare Derpy a second time. It was already hard enough on her as it was. So he just held in his anger, taking it all in.

Once having his friends and girlfriend to support him, Silver finally had the guts to speak.

“You want to know why I was never home? To know why I always distant myself from our family?” Silver responded to Inferno. “Well, the truth was… I was led to believe in something that I thought was right. Only to have that belief shattered when the ideal I was taught was… not what I expected. 5 years ago, I was a part of Dark’s vigilante group. In fact… I was his trusted advisor. Every mission or task we did together, I come up with the plans and tactics to pull them off. Technically I was the brains and he was the muscle. He came to me and filled my head with ideas of helping society and preventing corruption, which I reluctantly agreed to. Mostly because I wanted you to grow up in a better world than what we live in. So I joined him and… we went around town; attacking criminals, thugs, corrupted businesses, and law enforcement. Trying to cleanse the city of corruption and evil; at least that’s what I wanted to believe. However, the methods he used were something I never accepted and found dishonorably. Then one day, was the day I had enough. We were hunting a porch pirate in the downtown district. And we finally caught him, I merely wounded him and wanted to turn him into authorities until Dark beat him to death. I had no remorse at that moment… until Dark decided to put his remains in a body bag and delivered it to the man’s family. And it only got worse when I learned of the porch pirate’s identity. He was a man who had previously lost his job and had many overpaid debts. And his family would have been on the brink of being evicted until he turns to porch pirating to sell the objects to have enough money to give his family a roof over his head.” Silver explained.

"That case! I remember that!" Eternal said in realization. "I remember when our father paid his respects to the family and donated some of his money to them."

“Shut the fuck up! This doesn’t involve you or your family.” Silver sternly stated to Eternal as he continued with his story. “Anyway, knowing of the man’s true intentions, it made me wonder that perhaps many of the criminals we butchered or beaten may not have been all that bad, but that they were rather desperate people. At that moment, my belief that we were doing the right thing was shattered and I… I wanted out. So when I confronted Dark about it, he and I had differences, and soon we got into a heated argument. Which later turned into a bloody brawl. In the end, we both left each other, bruised and bloodied; but alive. I wanted to ensure that no more innocent or desperate lives would be blindly slaughtered of their actions. So I turned myself to the CPD, but not until after I gave them the identity of the Massacre Phantom they were after and gave them all the locations he hides out and the names of his followers. And once I did, I willingly turned myself in. But I knew that would mean that I would leave you, mom, and dad alone; even though I believed it was for your safety. But when I found out about our parents’ demise and later your… condition. I was broken in my heart. So much so that I slammed my fists against the walls of my cells for hours and hours; regretting all my actions and the choices I made. When I was released, I made myself a goal… I… I want to make things right…. Between you and me, Inferno. To at least try and be the brother that I never was to you. And I know… that there are things that I can’t fix in an instant. And I’m not asking for forgiveness, I know I’m beyond that. All I wanted… was to be given a second chance. A chance to be the brother I should have been to you and make amends for my wrongs.” he stated thoroughly.

"The choice is yours, Inferno," Aurora added.

"I have faith you'll make the right choice," Derpy also responded. Inferno thought long and hard about it, contemplating on whether or not to give him that 2nd chance. "I wanted to forget you… I wanted to block you out of my life… I've dealt with so many problems when you abandoned our family the way you did. I wanted you gone… but… I just couldn't. No matter how many times I told myself to forget about you, the… the memories just kept flooding back into me." he clenched his fist as the good memories of him and his brother came flooding deep in his mind. The times they shared laughs and bonding as any brothers would. And so, a he looked deep into the eyes of his brother, he finally gave his answer, "I can't forgive you for what you've done… but I will give you… one… last… chance. Mess up again… and we're done!" he said sternly. "Do I make myself clear?"

"I understand. I’ll try my best." Silver replied with a dispirited, yet hopeful tone.

"I'm proud of you, Silver," Aurora said, patting her mate on the back.

"Yay! He did it!" Derpy cheered happily. She then handed the two brothers a muffin, same with Dark and Aurora just because she's that nice.

"It must've been hard for both of them. I can't imagine how they both must be feeling," Fluttershy said, showing her sympathies.

“Sometimes it’s a strained relationship between siblings. Ah’ should know,” Applejack replied.

"I can empathize with that," Heat added.

"So… what do we do now?" Pinkie asked.

“Well, we just escaped capture…. So I’m all for any ideas.” Twilight suggested.

"I got one, alright. Hey, Dark. Come with me for a sec," Israel called out. His older brother looked in his direction with a confused looked.

"Uh… I'll be right back, guys," Dark said before he followed his little brother outside of the base and closed the door. "So… what'd you wanna talk about?"

And right before he could react in him, Israel grabbed his arm and then… without warning… "YOU MOTHERFUCKER!!!" he shouted as he activated his chi and slammed his fist right into Dark's face, knocking him hard against the wall with a loud, audible thud. He slumped down with a grunt of pain. Israel just stood there, panting heavily after letting out his anger. "That… was for ditching your family to pursue your life of crime, you son of a bitch!"

Dark coughed out some of his blood before getting back up on his feet, his legs shaking. "Gotta hand it to you. For a skinny little man… you hit hard. But I kinda deserved that," he replied in a chill tone.

"I would've punched you inside, but I didn't want to scare Derpy away again. She's already seen my violent outbursts once already and that's once too many. Remember this for the rest of your life: if you ever try any of that psychotic shit again, then you can forget about being my brother ever again!" he scolded.

"Point taken," Dark replied.

"Good, now let's head back inside," Israel stated before he and his brother went back in to join their friends once again.
