When Sparks rise from Clashed Swords

He walked quickly towards the forest, but stopped when he heard the sound of music and singing. Silver turned all around trying to locate where the heavenly voice and musical harmony was coming from. He spun to the left and realized the that the angelic music was coming from that direction. He hurried off towards it, and coming to a slow stop, saw a cottage with many animals outside crowding all around a single pony. He was about to run the pony's rescue but saw that instead of trying to eat the pony, all the animals were being fed by it. He then crept slowly as to not disturb them to get a better look at the pony. When Silver was close enough, he couldn't believe his eyes. The pony was gorgeous with a sunny yellow coat and delicate light pink mane. She, as could now tell, was showing no fear at all and was singing with the birds to create that otherworldly song.

In is state of rapture he mistakenly stepped on a twig causing her to stop her song and Silver, to hurriedly, get out of the line of sight. He, however, didn't know that going up the tree was the worst move. The birds there all were startled by his sudden appearance among their domain. The birds all called out and took flight from the tree making the pegasus startled as well. He could tell there was fear in those windows to the soul. Not being one to make others frightened of him before they met, Silver proceeded to come down out of the tree and walk towards her with his cloak over him.

As he approached she hid behind the cottage to barely peak around the corner and heard her ask with fear in her voice “W-Who a-are y-yo-you”?

As soon as she was finished he couldn't stop himself from throwing back his hood and saying “Please don't be scared of me. My name is Silver, Silver Flash. I... I was just so amazed at your singing and harmony with the birds, I wasn't able to stop myself from coming over here. I'm sorry if I startled you with my presence. I just don't like meeting other ponies much. Whats your name so I don't have to awkwardly keep saying things like hey you or ma'am” Silver said quickly.

“My name is Fluttershy” She stated quietly.

“I'm sorry I couldn't quite catch that” Silver said apologetically.

“My name is Fluttershy”

“Fluffershy” Silver asked questioningly?

“My name is Fluttershy” Fluttershy finally said at normal volume.

“That is a very nice name. So, if you don't mind me asking, why is a pegasus on the ground” Silver inquired?

“Oh well that's because I love animals and if I wasn't here then who would take care of the animals. They might starve or get hurt or become sick. Oh my goodness I hope none of them are” She rambled on with Silver listening intently.

He had realized that she had stopped talking after awhile and apologized profusely.
“I am so sorry. Its just you... you... you” he kept repeating when he noticed the pony in black looking at them from behind Fluttershy in the forest. Silver began to get nervous as he realized that this pony was from them. He looked over to Fluttershy and said “Fluttershy? Now I know this is strange but please, PLEASE, get in your house and keep the door locked. If I'm not back in 5 minutes I need you to run to your friends and make sure they watch you Day and Night.”

Fluttershy was flabbergasted and pieced together a response “Um... Alright. But why do you need me to-

Silver interjected “Inside now PLEASE”!!!!

To which Fluttershy ran with a “EEP” and scooped up Angel and locked the door. Silver was looking at the pony with pure contempt. He thought to himself I'm tired of this. I'm tired of having to watch people I just talk to get killed. THIS ENDS NOW!! They will come after me and I will make sure of it. He started to walk towards the pony who was slowly backing away with each step Silver came closer with. Silver waved him closer and, in the other pony's arrogance, they stepped forward to the challenge.

The pony yelled out “I am Hotshot. You don't know me but soon you will fear me!”
Silver looked closer at the pony and saw he had a cross-hair as a cutiemark and guessed he would use crossbows, or some other form of long range combat. He was also an earth pony as well. This might get interesting thought silver

Silver looked at him and laughed. He just started to bust a gut and didn't stop until Hotshot said “Hey, why are you laughing at me. Am going to KILL you for laughing at ME!” Silver stopped and looked up at him. “Oh I'm not laughing at you. I'm laughing at how scared I've been. I stopped all communication with everyone else because I was afraid of what you would do to them. I didn't think until now that as long as I was alone, I could fight the Organization without any repercussion but my own.

Hotshot replied snarkly “Oh but you do have repercussions that aren't yours. Like that little yellow Pegasus. Once I get back to my squad, I'll tell them all about her and her animals. By the time we get done here all that will be standing is a stake with her burned at it.” Hotshot then laughed at his own twisted version of how it would play out.

Silver looked at Hotshot and asked a simple question. “Who said you were going to make it back to your squad?” With that he pulled out his three swords and stood up and took his stance. Hotshot responded to him drawing by getting out his cross bows and firing off a bolt. Silver merely flicked the sword in his mouth and deflected it to the left.

Hotshot then began to run and reload as Silver ran behind waiting for him to trip up. Hotshot ran forward and jumped over a log and did a180* turn and fired off both bolts at Silver. He stopped one by turning his left sword in a circle but the other got through and cut his side. He didn't even feel it as he continued in his pursuit of Hotshot. Hotshot finally slipped up by trying to go up a hill but slid on a patch of moss. He fell and came face to face with Silver. He tried to fire his cross bows but he had forgot to reload while he celebrated hitting Silver with one.

Silver looked at him said calmly “I wish I didn't have to kill you. See, I don't like killing ponies. But since you have such a “fun” idea of what to do if I let you go, I'm gonna have a “fun” time killing you.”

Hotshot started to hyperventilate. He then pulled out a hidden cross bow from his hooves and fired. Silver reacted quickly while saying “Blessing of the Moon”. He then turned each of the swords in his hooves in a halve circle and blocked the bolt. He was now mad at both himself for not noticing the cross bow earlier and at Hotshot for trying to pull a dirty trick like that.

Silver then went straight at Hotshot in a whirlwind of blades. When he finished he said “Wrath of the Sun”. He didn't look back as he heard blood leaking from Hotshot everywhere.

“Now, so you know, none of your wounds are fatal. They will just make it hurt to move. Also, if you scream loud enough, your friends may be able to save you before night falls. Good luck” Silver said calmly.

Hotshot spoke with pain etched in his voice “I need to know. How are you this good? The report said you were only a little skilled, and that you cheated to beat the last Organization member you came up against!”

“You mean Daikoju? He lost that day because of his arrogance. I never cheat” Silver replied “Oh. Thank you for reminding me. I need to know where he is. So does the little birdie feel like talking” Silver asked with blood lust in his eyes.

In response to this Hotshot spit at Silver. Silver just looked at him and then walked away all while Hotshot began to shout for help. Silver had just come out of the woods and saw Fluttershy come out of her cottage and run towards the sounds he had come from.

“Wowowowo. Slow down. That's the guy who was going to kill you” Silver said in an explanatory.

Fluttershy looked at Silver and replied harshly “I DON'T CARE!. You hurt that pony. You left him to die. You should feel ashamed of your self”. With that she took off on her wings and raced to help Hotshot, while Silver stood there with a slack-jawed look and a whirling brain.
