The BatPony

"Thanks guys for coming over to my slumber party!" Pinkie squealed. "My parents are out of town and they said I could have a slumber party! This is going to be so much fun!"

"No problem, Pinkie. You know slumber parties at your place are always a blast!" Rainbow Dash said. "Also do you have the new Tirek's Revenge game?"

Pinkie showed a sly smile. "I don't know..." She held it up. "Do I?"

Rainbow Dash's eyes widen in excitement. "You got it?!" That's awesome!" Pinkie turned the T.V on put the game in the console. "Hey, Fluttershy?"

"Oh um...yes, Rainbow?" Fluttershy stammered.

"How about you grab a controller and play with me?" Rainbow suggested.

"Umm I don't think I'm good though. Especially not at games like these."

"Come on, it will be fun! Please?"

"Oh alright," Fluttershy smiled. "Maybe one round won't hurt."

"Awesome!" Rainbow handed Fluttershy the second controller and they started playing together. Meanwhile Sunset, Rarity, and Twilight were doing each other's nails.

"Oh my, the aqua blue looks so marvelous!" Rarity gasped taking a look at her nails that Sunset did for her. She had to admit, it suited her very well. Sunset's nails were a bright red done by Twilight. The latter's nails were bright purple.

"Fluttershy! You didn't tell me you were a gamer! You're goated at this!" Rainbow said in amazement as she saw Fluttershy played.

"I say, I think you can learn a thing or two from Fluttershy," Spike grinned. Rainbow rolled her eyes but started to laugh.

"Well it's actually easy. All I'm doing is pressing buttons," Fluttershy said while slightly blushing. The doorbell rang and Pinkie ran out of the room and came back with 6 boxes of pizza. The girls started to eat and then hung out for a while more. At 12:30 am AppleJack started to yawn.

"I don't know about yall but I'm starting to get beat," She said

"You know, now that you mention it, I'm also starting to feel tired as well," Rarity said yawned as well. The girls decided to get ready for bed. They all took turns in the showers until they were all done. Once they were all in their sleeping bags they wondered what they were going to do tomorrow.

"How about the mall? I heard they got some brand new outfits I wanna try," Rarity suggested.

"I'm down with that," Sunset said. "How about you guys?"

The other girls agreed. They all said goodnight to each other and turned in for the night.

*5:24 am*

A scream from outside caused all the girls to wake up in a jolt.

"What was that?!" Rarity whispered.

"I don't know but I think we should check it out!" Rainbow said as she bolted out the door. Not caring if she was still in her pajamas.

"Hey wait up!" Rarity shouted after her as she too ran out the front door. Sunset rubbed her eyes as she got up and so did the rest of her friends. Another loud sound erupted once again but this time it sounded like an inhuman screech. Now that they were somewhat awake, they raced towards the source of the noise and what they saw threw them for a surprise. Rarity screamed, Fluttershy almost fainted, and the rest of the girls only looked in terror. There was a bloody, mutilated corpse of a man on the floor. It looked like something straight from a horror movie.

"WHAT THE FUCK?!" AJ shouted. Rarity continued to scream in terror. Surely this was just a nightmare? but no matter how hard she pinched herself, she wouldn't wake up. The sound of the inhuman screech appeared again and a creature came flying towards them. It was something none of the girls had seen before. A hybrid between a Pegasus and a bat. It's coat was yellow with a pink mane. The eyes were dark red. Judging from it's manestyle, it looked like a female but the most shocking thing was it resembled Fluttershy. The creature let out a terrifying screech as it charged at AJ. The latter barely had enough time to react using her super strength to counterattack but the batpony only got up again and flew at her. She screeched and opened her mouth showing her razor sharp teeth and fangs ready to bite the farm girl's head clean off. Rarity made a diamond forcefield to save her friend as Rainbow then used her super speed and was about to knock the creature away but somehow, the batpony was able to react and used it's hind legs to buck the rainbow-haired girl sending her sprawling to the ground. Sunset ran to Rainbow's aid and they saw the batpony about to charge at them once more until...

"I think that's quite enough, Flutterbat." A new voice said. A young man approached them. He was light skinned and had black hair. He also wore a black blazer with a white collared undershirt and matching pants. Flutterbat obeyed and immediately stopped attacking. She flew towards the man and landed next to him. He wasn't the only one to show up. The girls looked around and saw there were several people surrounding them. They too wore the same attire. All of them had their guns pointed towards the girls. The one who spoke seemed to be the leader. "What you think? Pretty cool right?" He laughed.

"Hey, what's the big idea!" Rainbow Dash shouted angrily. She raised her fists but the man seemed unfazed.

"No one is stopping you from killing me, buuuut..." He looked over at Flutterbat who glared at Rainbow and showed her fangs and sharp teeth. "Doing so will have some pretty negative consequences," he chuckled. "Now tell me, what are you girls doing on such a fine morning?"

"What are we doing?! We could ask you the same thing!" Rarity gasped. "Why I oughta rip you apart!". As much as the others girls wanted to do the same thing, it would be backfire. Flutterbat was too strong for any of them.

"Who are you?" Fluttershy asked timidly.

"How rude of me, I never introduced myself! I'm Ande, leader of the Blood Shadows." The sounds of several guns clicking was heard as the girls looked around themselves. "See, we do have quite a reputation," he smiled. "Unfortunately for you, we can't have any witnesses alive." He turned to his men. "Kill them," he ordered.

Gunshots were heard deflecting off of Rarity's shield. "We...c-can't stay like this forever!" she was struggling to hold the shield up. Eventually it gave in and broke. AJ wasted no time going in for the attack. She tackled one of the men to the ground and started to beat him. Ande laughed and pointed his gun at AJ and was about to open fire until he felt some invisible force throw him across the street hitting a car. He groaned in pain. This made Flutterbat furious as she let out an ear piercing screech and flew towards Twilight ready to tear her into shreds. Until AJ hit Flutterbat making enough time for Twilight to get away. Flutterbat, however was not to be defeated that easily. She got back up and used her hind legs to buck AJ. The farm girl gasped for air.

Meanwhile Rainbow Dash and Rarity were busy dodging bullets until the former had an idea. "Rarity, remember that thing I always wanted to try if we ever get into something like this? I wanna try it now!" Rarity created two pairs of diamond shards. One end was the handle while the other was sharp. She handed the shards to Rainbow Dash who put the blunt parts between her fingers. "OH YEAH IT'S TIME TO KICK SOME ASS!" She shouted. She used her super speed and locked onto her first target. The unfortunate gang member had no time to react as Rainbow used her shards to gruesomely slice him.

He let out a scream of pain as she flipped him over and got on top of him and started to slice his face. Blood was everywhere. A truly graphic scene. Another gang member tried to attack with a switchblade from behind. He was about slit Rainbow's throat until she quick turned around and used the shards to stab him right in the eye. He let out a scream as Rainbow continued to repeatedly stab him in the face, creating another bloody mess

AppleJack used her strength to grab one of the member's arm and made him shoot the others. She then bent it the other way breaking his arm making him scream. She kicked him in the face while another charged at her with a knife but a blur of Rainbow zoomed past him and the next thing he knew, he was gasping for air as his throat was slit. He fell over dead. Rainbow grabbed a couple of guns from the corpses and handed it to Fluttershy and Sunset "Catch!"

Fluttershy caught the gun. "Wait, Rainbow! I don't-" A screech interrupted her as she saw Flutterbat flying towards her. Fluttershy let out a yelp causing her to react and pull the trigger. The bullet hitting Flutterbat in the forehead but not coming close to killing her. The batpony resumed it's pursuit until AJ intervened. She kicked Flutterbat sending her flying across the street but she wasn't finished. She picked up a car and hurled it at the creature hitting it.

Sunset aimed the gun at a member's head and opened fire, hitting him square on. He fell to the ground. A few others tried to shoot her but she react quicker, shooting them in the head until they all met the same fate as the first one.

"Sunset look out!" Rainbow shouted. Sunset turned around and saw one try to shoot her. Just like before, she aimed for the head but the gun clicked showing it was out of ammo.

After awhile Ande decided it would go on forever fighting these girls. "Stop," he ordered Flutterbat. The creature obeyed and ceased attacking. He turned towards the girls. "You know, you're all more capable than I thought so I'll tell you what. We'll let you off the hook this one time but don't try to interfere with us again, got it?"

"And what if we do?" Rainbow challenged.

"Well like I said. There's no one stopping you, but if you value your own life then I'd reconsider." He chuckled as FlutterBat showed her sharp fangs.

He got back in his car and drove off, followed by the other members. After the fight AJ asked everyone, "Are y'all alright?"

Rarity and Fluttershy looked white. They nodded their heads but were unable to speak at the moment.

"What...was that creature?" Rainbow asked.

"She looked like something that would come Equestria," Sunset said thoughtfully. "But it doesn't make sense. If she was from over there, she should be a human."

"Well we can figure this out later. I'd say we stop by the mall and grab something to eat," Rarity suggested. "This morning was not how I planned to start the day." Everyone agreed and went back inside the house to get ready. When they all got in the car, they drove to the mall while Pinkie put on the radio. Instead of music, however it was the news.

"Another body found mutilated on the side street of Canterlot City," One voice said

"The unknown creature has struck again with a vicious attack," said another.

"This is bad, yall," AJ said with concern. "The creature is on the loose and killing people left and right. We gotta do something!"

"I agree, but she's practically impossible to kill," Rainbow said. "It's like she knows our every move!"

"There's gotta be a weakness she has," Sunset wondered. "Maybe we can use that to our advantage."

"But what weakness would Flutterbat have, Sunset?" Rarity asked. "She's shown to be capable fighting someone with literal super strength and then she was able to react to Rainbow Dash's super speed."

"I...don't know but we'll figure it out." Sunset said.

They pulled into the parking lot mall and went inside. Inside, they overhead everyone talking about the attack that happened just this morning. It seemed like that was all anyone wanted to discuss about. While waiting in line, they noticed Spike, but he was being petted by a child who looked about 10 years old. He was a light skinned boy. He had brown hair and wore a gray shirt along with a brown jacket and jeans. He was smiling and giggling as he petted Spike. A woman came over to him. She had long hair that reached past her shoulders. She wore a light blue blouse with white jeans. From the similar hair and skin color, the girls assumed it was his mother.

"There you are, sweetie. I told you to stay close to me." The woman said. "And it's not polite to pet someone's dog without asking first."

"Sorry, mom but I just saw him and he's so cute!"

His mother smiled. "I know, but it's still considerate to ask first."

Twilight noticed and stepped in. "Oh it's alright really. I'm sure your son wasn't meaning any harm. And Spike does love being pet."

Spike barked happily and ran over to the boy wagging his tail.

The child giggled and gave Spike a scratch behind the ears. He stopped and asked the girls, "Have you heard about the creature?"

His mother giggled. "Comet, I'm sure they know about it.

"We already do, it's what everyone is talking about, the only thing is how we stop her." Rainbow said.

"Well as much as we would love to chat, we must get going but it was nice meeting you...umm"

"Rainbow Dash," Rainbow said. "And these are my friends. Sunset Shimmer, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, AppleJack, and Twilight Sparkle."

The mother smiled at them. "Well it was nice meeting you all, and I'm Aisha by the-" A scream interrupted them as they heard a loud screech. Flutterbat was in the mall as the guests were panicking. Screams of terror filled the mall as they trampled each other trying to get out. Flutterbat was ready to attack the unfortunate worker at the front end of the Jewlery store. The girls saw the two men with the creature and recognized their blazer attire. One of them shot a few rounds in the air.

"Everyone, on the ground!" one of the men shouted.

"Nobody move!" Shouted another. Everyone in the store were terrified as they obeyed. They got on their stomachs with their hands behind their heads.

The second one pointed a gun at the worker. "Not you. Here's what you're going to do. You are going to go to the back, and open the safe for us." The worker was frozen with fear so the gang member shot one of the customer in the head, killing him. Now everyone was even more scared for their lives. "I'm going to start shooting if you don't get moving!" He threatened. "Or I'll have this lovely creature make a snack out of you!" He laughed.

"Okay, just p-please don't k-kill anyone else," The worker said shakily. He was about to go in the back until he saw 7 girls flying towards them. The Main 7 were all in their pony-up forms and had came to the rescue. AJ went for Flutterbat first, punching the creature which resulted in an attempted counterattack via bite. AJ punched again sending Flutterbat flying across the room. At one point, the batpony managed to catch AJ off guard and throw her to the ground. Flutterbat was about to make the kill when a diamond shield protected AJ. The creature kept on pounding the shield with her hooves but Rarity kept holding it up. One of the gang members saw this and charged at Rarity with a knife but Rainbow Dash intervened.

"You fuck with my friends, you have me to deal with!" She shouted. The gang member aimed for Rainbow's head and tried to stab her but the latter grabbed his arm and flipped him over on his back. She grabbed the knife from him but then he punched her giving him time to escape. The other gang member took out his gun and began to open fire. His first intended victim going to be Sunset Shimmer. The red head and her friends took cover behind the cash register as gunshots were head firing all over. Sunset quickly peeked and shot a few shots hitting one of the members in the shoulder. He shouted in pain but was still alive. Twilight used her magic to fight back but Flutterbat knocked her down. Before Twilight had time to react, she felt a strong pair of hind legs kick her sending her crashing through the glass doors. Her friends panicked and rushed to her aid but Flutterbat was ruthless. She kept on attacking while one of the members pulled out his gun but AJ attacked him. A fight ensued between them. AJ grabbed him by the legs and tossed him to the wall. He groaned and tried to get back up but Flutterbat came to the rescue. She bucked AJ to the wall as the member took out his knife and got on top of her. He held her down and readied to bring the knife to her throat. AJ grabbed his arm holding the knife. She flipped him over on his back, then she grabbed his knife and stabbed him in the throat. He tried to scream but ended up drowning in his own blood.

The other gang member realized he did not want to meet the same fate so he took off running with Flutterbat flying behind him. After the attack everyone was still on the ground, too scared to move. Sunset Shimmer was making sure everyone was ok.

"Is everyone ok?"

Aside from the two dead bodies on the floor, everyone started to calm down. The girls saw Comet with a surprise look on his face.

"You girls have magic?!" he said excitedly. "And you're superheroes!"

Rainbow chuckled. "You could say that, kiddo. We do save the world at time to time."

Aisha put her hands on her son's shoulders and smiled at the Main 7. "This is fascinating. I haven't seen any other types of magic besides the ones I work with."

"Wait you work with magic too?!" Twilight gasped.

Aisha nodded. "Yes, and I too am looking for Flutterbat, but now that I see what you girls can do, I want to ask if you all would help me."

"Are you kidding?! Of course we would!" Rainbow beamed. "Anything to help us get rid of that evil creature!" Her friends agreed as Aisha smiled warmly. She took out a piece of paper and handed it to Rainbow.

"Here is my address. We can meet tomorrow and discuss further and thank you for everything."

"You can count on us!" Rainbow said enthusiastically.

Aisha took her son's hand as they walked away. The girls could not believe someone else other than them knows about the magic in this world.

"Can you believe it, Sunset? Someone else rather than us knows about magic here!" Rainbow said.

"Actually, a few people did get there hands on magic...and then they turned into these bad people," Pinkie pointed out.

"Well I think Aisha seems pretty genuine," Rarity said. "I truly think she has good intentions."

"I believe so too, Rares but we should just be on our guard just in case." AJ told her.

"Well we can talk about this later, let's get some food to eat. I'm starving!"
