018 Foalnapping the escape?

I jolt awake as my body shivers, the cold floor biting my very core. Slowly I rise to my hooves, dull pain aching at every move I make.

I open my eyes slowly the darkened cell my only friend. "Ha ha, Hello darkness my old friend" I think to myself.
Then it hits I was asleep looking around the room I notice the unicorn laying next to me. I poke her with one of my hooves, she's not moving.

I start to check her vitals, her body warm, pules steady, breath slow but stable and I get a hint of something on her, or to be correct inside her. She's still effected by my venom. "Good, don't know how long it will last. What was the doctors estimate three to four hours in a small dose, she got a lot more than that."

Flinching I turn to look at the earth pony. She's laying there lifeless a big pool of blood around her. "Well fuck I killed a pony." Well nothing to do about it know and she tried to kill me. Shaking my head I look over to bars, the gate still open. "I wonder if the wooden door is still open." So I start to leave the two ponies when my stomach grumbles. Looking over to the unicorn I look at her with sorrow. "Seems you will be my dinner." Walk over to the unicorn I prepare myself to drain this pony's love for my own survival.

As I get close I open my mouth and start sucking out the love form within her, It's a hard task as she's not giving it to me freely. Her completion changes her eyes dulling in color, the little I see of her fur turning grayish. The love tastes sour, like a lemon with a sprinkle of sugar on.

The love is getting slower to drain. "I'm getting to the end. Now should I leave her alive or not." I think over as I get closer to the end. Stopping before the last love leave her, I look down at her. "I will give you the chance to change your life, if we meet again I hope it's on better terms." I say to her, "I will presumably regret this later."

With my new found strength I walk over the the wooden door, slowly opening it a small breeze hits my face. I open the door more I see a long corridor with a few lanterns giving light. There's doors on the left and right of the corridor four in total two on each side, at the end is a staircase leading upwards.

"Hmm, no guards that's weird. I though they be smarter then that." I slowly walk down the corridor my changeling hooves making no sound, as I'm about to pass the first set of doors I hear whimpering. Whimper not that of an adult pony, but that of a foal. Checking the right door it opens to another cell room.

What I saw was nightmarish so horrible that I almost threw up. In the cell is six pony foals, two colts and four fillies all their backs are covered in scars and wounds, where their cutie mark was meant to be was only a burn mark. They all where cowering in a corner of the cell. One of the fillies are biting at her fetlock pulling out her fur, leaving it to bleed. "They all have been abused, what kind of ponies would do this to their own kind, their own foal. Monster that's whom and I have seen monster. But those where humans, not ponies.

Walking over to the cell I lay down on my stomach just out of reach if this foals are aggressive. "Hello little ponies." I say with a warm motherly tone just like that of Celestia. The foals freeze in place eyes looking at me if I'm some monster ready to do whatever those ponies have done to them.

They're about to start crying. "Shh, shh my little ponies. I'm not here to hurt you, I'm escaping and I will take you all with me. I can't leave you all." They all look at me in shock and disbelief. 'Fear and worry in their emotions.' I give them a sad look, and try to reassure them. "I know you can't trust me, but I promise I will get you out of this place."

One of the fillies speak up. "Even if you gets us out many of us don't have homes to return to." I look at this filly's her pink coat, mane and tail light green all dirty, her eyes full of hate and fury. "There's a good orphanage in Canterlot that's take good care of fouls." some of the foals start to cry at my sentence. The pink filly growls at me. "Some of us was sold from those orphanages." That bit of info shocked my very core, standing up I feel rage burning through my body. "Those ponies are meant to protect foals."

In my rage I push out as much magic I can, pushing harder and harder. "I need to fix this, I need to save them, AND MAKE EVERY PONY PAY FORE THEIR CRIMES!" I scream out in rage as a crack and an explosion rings through the room.

Everything becomes quiet the only sound of heavy breathing that's coming from myself. As the smoke clears, I see the bars to the cell is gone, the foals are looking at me in fear. Blinking a few time I see small pieces of black falling from my head, as I follow them to the floor. I notice that's a dull pain in my head and horn. Finding the black pieces laying on the floor before me, I find out that they're the pieces of the null rings that was on my horn.

With a slow care I lift my left fore hoof to check my horn, as I touch it I recoil in pain, the horn hot like an iron rod just at the point of melting, the touch made the pain increase and fades to a dull ache as my hoof leaves the horn. Putting it down hoof, I look over to the foals. "I getting you all out and I will speak to my mother about this."

One of the foals ask. "What can your mother do? They're all nobles of Canterlot." Turning around I my back towards them I say. "Because my mother is god damned Celestia. And if she will not do anything I will."

I walk out to the corridor I see three ponies rushing down the stairs, lighting up my horn the pain flaring up as I cast my spell. With a magical blast the ponies are gone in a mist of red, covering all sides of the corridor.
"I didn't feel anything when I killed these ponies, are my emotions dull, or is my anger consuming me?"

With a heavy grown of pain I push open the next door, seeing about the same scene as the first releasing these foals I move the next do the same, even the last cell is freed. I continue to push slowly I walk up the through the blood and up the stairs, leaving bloody prints on them, the sound of foals following me. As I look back I see some of them are scared of crossing the blood. "Come we can't stay here, come before more show up." I say to them giving them a confident smile.

We enter a big room two stairs leading up to a balcony over looking the room, on the floor we stand on are eight door, looking around I see we exited in the far left corner of this big room. I whisper to the foal behind me. "Stay here and hide, this is a typical place for an ambush." They look at each other and one of them give me a weak nod.

I chose cast a scanning spell to see if there's any life form around, of course I count ten, but for what I know there can be unicorns that hide them self with magic. Smiling I walk out into the middle of the big room.

As I near the middle all the lights in the room become lit. Sound of two hooves clopping together like a slow clap comes from the up balcony. 'Rolling my eyes at this obvious trap and you will never leave speak that will come.' Lighting up my horn I wait as about fourteen ponies all wearing black cloths and hoods appear surrounding me. As a pony with no hood comes forth on the balcony I ready myself.

"You did well to ge..." she was cut of as I blast her head off with magic. "Yeah, don't need to hear that." Looking around at the hence ponies whom all have shocked expression. "I hope you all ponies just walk away or your fate will be the same." I buzz my wings in excitement.

Some of the ponies run, few chose to fight. They whom chose to fight, some die a quick death by my magic.
As one of my attacks is about to land on another target, when a buckler shield held in green magic blocked the attack.

A unicorn mare appear beside it as she teleport in. Pulling of her hood revealing a white coat of fur, mane with blue and yellow, her green eyes meet my red. She gives me a grin as she charges at me with her shield in front.

Dodging to my left to avoid her, a slash hits me on that side sending me rolling. Stopping by hitting the wall, I look to my side seeing a line of red. Grimacing I get to my hooves, only to get knocked back down again this time by the shield.

Lighting up my horn I do a quick teleport jump up onto the balcony. "Shit she's good, I need to think this through."
Raising to me hooves I jump up onto the railing looking down at the Unicorn, she finds me instantly pointing her sword tip towards me she releases three bolts of magic.

Jumping to the side I open my wings and start to flying around the room, magic blasting around me, dodging every spell coming my way. But my luck ran out quickly as I'm about to dodge the next set of bolts, a shield hits me from my other side throwing me towards the floor.

Pain and fatigue is stopping my body from moving, I remain laying on the floor where I landed. The unicorn walking towards me weapons at the ready. Raising her sword the unicorn is prepared to finish me.

Time slowed down, memories form my queen mother battles against strong magic casters flares up in my mind. How she uses faints and overpowering force to break them. Smiling I teleport again, as time returning to normal.

The Unicorn looks around searching for my location, when she sees two of me. Lighting up the sword she fires bolts at the two changelings going right through them. Then it hits her a bolt of magic from above her, smashing her into the floor breaking the stone floor and her bones at the same time.

Landing before her broken, I give her light bow. Then I blast her head off. "Double tap, always double tap." Looking over the broken room walls with holes, floor with craters, a set stairs is missing and bodies littering the floor.

Hearing the sound of hooves I look over my shoulder to see the foals coming up and walking towards me. Letting out a sigh of relief i say. "Lets find a way out, I don't know if there more of them."

Nodding they spread out opening doors, as one of the foal opens a door she screams. I with some others walks over to them, well I wobble. In side this door is a small room with only a mattress, on it lies a mare bond and gagged. It's a pegasus mare I know her blue coat dirty with blood, sweet and other fluids, her marehood and the other hole is bleeding. Her cheeks stained with tears, the sound of her still sobbing is making my heart break.

I wobble up to her side laying down beside her, releasing her form her bonds with my teeth. When she register that she free she open her bloodshot eyes one yellow the other orange and sees me. Shock and confusion fills her eyes, then she tackles me hugging me hard. I let out a hiss of pain. "Not so hard please." She won't let go of me, so I slowly start hum a light tune, as I hug her I moving one of my fore hoof up and down her back.

She falls asleep while hugging me look around. "Can you pony help me out of this?" I ask the foals standing in the door way. They help me get free, using my magic I lay Thunder Splash on my back and start walking, feeling my strength leave me I was surprised two foals one on each side of me, helps me lift the mare. "Seems they trust me a bit now, still a far way to go."

One of the other foals have found a way out, so walking down corridors and halls without anything to stop us, I became worried. "I fucking hope it's not another ambush, if it's we will lose."

Walking out a set of double doors we come out onto a grassy field, in the distance is a treeline. It's night time the moon shining bright in the sky, like it's saying 'we're here for you.' In front of us is many black hooded ponies, weapons and magic ready. Among them stands Sparkling Glimmer.

He laugh at us. "Ah, ha, ha. You fools thought you all can just walk away from here? Guess again." I feel the foals becoming more afraid, they all gather behind me for protection. Glaring at Glimmer I ready magic, feeling the pain running trough my horn stops me from casting. Puffing I hiss in pain, my body rejecting my commands, looking at the foals and Thunder Splash on my back I say to them in a low voice. "I will use the last I have to teleport you all to the treeline, take this mare with you and run. Don't stop until you reach the castle. You got it?" They all look hesitant at me before nodding. "Good." I say with a grin.

Starting to cast the teleportation spell with the last of my strength, Glimmer scream out orders to capture us.

The pain from my horn becomes so much greater, making me nausea. As I feel the spell fail and the hooded ponies getting closer. My fear for myself and these foals shaking me to my core. So this is it? Captured, tortured and killed and I got these foal to their death."I think for myself as darkness is slowly taking me. When a beam of pure sun light cleaves the night sky burning many of the hooded ponies there.

"Mother?" is the last thing in my mind before everything turns black.
