She Talks To Angel - The Aftermath
Chapter 6: To Canterlot!
Previous ChapterNext ChapterComing out of the Everfree Forest, Fluttershy spotted the Wonderbolts, who were still waiting for her. When they saw her powered up form, their jaws dropped.
"Wow... You look incredible!", said Soarin.
"Impressive, isn't it?", Fluttershy said, filled with determination, "With the power of the elements, I was able to become the Flame of Harmony. And now, I have the power to take on the Evil Trio."
Surprise jumped up. "Ha! See, I knew the Flame of Harmony was real!", she said.
Spitfire was concerned though. "But Fluttershy, you don't know how to use that power to its full potential. You're not Rainbow Dash, after all. And also, you don't even know where the Evil Trio is.", she said.
"Twilight said that they're in Canterlot. If there's one place in Equestria from where you can extend your reign, it's gotta be Canterlot.", Fluttershy said.
"Wait, Twilight said that?", asked Spitfire, not believing what she just heard.
"Yes. When I put the elements on the graves, the ghosts of my friends spoke to me, and they gave me the power.", Fluttershy explained.
"That's incredible! I had no idea this was even possible!", said Misty Fly, beyond belief herself.
"Anyway, we have to get to Canterlot. The Evil Trio is waiting there.", Fluttershy said.
"Okay, we'll help you!", Spitfire said.
Together, the five pegasi flew in the direction of Canterlot, the capital of Equestria.
"Say Fluttershy, what are you going to do when the Evil Trio is defeated?", Spitfire asked.
"I'll see if I can find Discord, and then we have to find the princesses Celestia and Luna. Although I have no idea where either of them are.", Fluttershy said.
"Maybe the Evil Trio knows where Discord and the princesses are. They are the ones that caused all this.", Spitfire said.
Fluttershy's mind went over to the draconequus, one of her dearest friends ever since she was able to reform him. "I just hope he's okay, unlike my pony friends...", she said and almost started crying again before she swallowed her tears and focused on the objective at hoof.
The five pegasi soon reached Canterlot. Just in front of the entrance there, they spotted more changelings.
"One more hurdle before our goal.", Spitfire said.
Fluttershy though brimmed with confidence. "Those poor things won't know what hit them.", she said.
The five Pegasi landed in front of the swarm. And when the changelings spotted them, the fight was on.
This fight was the perfect opportunity for Fluttershy to get used to her newfound powers. As she fought the changelings, she felt so much more powerful than before. She still felt sorry for the changelings she had to beat up - a typical attribute of her usual kindness - but deep in her heart, she knew that her friends trusted her, and she wanted to avenge them, no matter what.
She even managed to save Spitfire after she got pinned by four changelings together. Fluttershy just smashed them away like bowling pins.
"Whew! Thanks, Fluttershy!", Spitfire said.
Fluttershy giggled in response before they continued to fight the swarm of changelings.
After a few minutes, the swarm was taken care of. And there it was. Canterlot was just ahead of them. The place where the Evil Trio was hiding, the last hurdle to take back Equestria. The big entrance looked inviting as ever.
"Well, this is it, Fluttershy.", Spitfire said, "The last trial. And it's one you have to face by yourself."
Fluttershy turned to Spitfire and the Wonderbolts who helped her get here. "I really have to thank you for your help. I wouldn't have made it here without you."
"It was a pleasure for us. But now it's time you get in there and beat that Evil Trio to take back Equestria. We'll stay behind and buy you some time."
The Wonderbolts then bowed before Fluttershy before turning around to face the next swarm of changelings coming in. Fluttershy turned back to the entrance to Canterlot.
"I think it's time you three witness my powerful side, once and for all!", Fluttershy said with determination in her mind. And then, she went into Canterlot, starting to look for the three evil villains.
Author's Note
Yeah, I know this was a short one, but with the train out of action and Canterlot not being that far away in general, there was not much I could write.
Anyway, it's time. Flip over to the next chapter if you're ready...
