Aponycalipse: Wings of Freedom
Ch5
Previous ChapterNext ChapterBack at the camp, Justin, John, and Isaac were walking across the grass. Pilots in the air were testing their fighters. John was smiling a bit while his wings in a fixed position.
“Heh... maybe being a pony isn’t so bad...it's a chick magnet...” John said.
“John we need to focus. Isaac needs our help.” Justin said.
“Oh right…” John starts humming as Isaac sees someone.
“Hey, who is that?” Isaac said. It was Max.
“Dragon, are you ok?” Max asked.
“Yep, I’m really happy!” John replied.
“You are a hero!” Then Max looks at Justin. “I’m watching you spy...”
Justin looks nervous and he steps back. Isaac looks at Max suspiciously. John was only confused.
“Don’t worry Dragon... you deserve ice cream…” Max hands some ice cream cone with ice cream on it to John.
John holds the cone with his hooves. “Uh thanks…”
“Something wrong? You love ice cream...” Max said.
“I do!” John said and smiles. “I love ice cream!”
“Follow me please?” Max asks.
“To where??” Isaac interrupts as he gets in front of John.
“We're on our way to the briefing with Isaac” John said.
“Well let me hear the plans too... what’s new.... is it a napalm strike this time?” max asked.
“No, of course not,” Isaac answered.
“Yeah were not blowing up stuff,” John added.
“We are starting to make peace with the ponies,” Isaac said with his hands behind his back.
“Peace? Heh, you are making the peace after all the army did?” Max said. “You see the end ahead so make peace as a last salvation to stab the herd in the back when you got a way to de-tf.”
“No it’s not like that.” Isaac said. John tilts his head in confusion.
“And that comes from the humans who tried to fire a nuke.” Max explodes in a cloud of snow dust as snowy appears. “Then I won’t need a disguise eh?”
“Snowy?!” John said in shock. Justin and Isaac were surprised as well.
“My max disguise is really useful right dragon? With it I sneak in the bases and open the doors for you and the other ponies...” snowy said.
“Who are you?” Isaac asked.
“I’m Dragon’s best friend, Snowy!” Snowy said, smiling. “I help to purify the resistant minds...”
“That used to be Max, Isaac.” Justin said.
“I see…” Isaac rubbed his chin.
“And Dragon... Wait Justin... he is a spy and needs purify,” Snowy said.
John gets in front of her. “No Snowy this has gone long enough.”
“Dragon?”
“I’m not Dragon,” John said. “The name is John and you’re not Snowy but Max.”
“Oh no... What did you do to him!?” Snowy yelled.
“I didn't do anything,” Isaac said, knowing to himself that he was right.
“No! You are dragon! I transformed you!” Snowy yelled as she looks at Isaac. “You monster... what did you do to Dragon!?”
“I didn't do anything, I swear!” Isaac yelled. “The shock from the blast must have caused him to get his memorizes back. I was lucky enough to be with him and bring him here for first aid.”
“That’s true if it wasn’t for him I would have been dead along with millions of our pony and the humans here.” John added.
“Ok… calm down snowy... you can bring Dragon back...” Snowy said to herself.
“Snowy, think about what you’re doing.” John said. “Bring back Dragon, the best pegasus!”
“Stop!” Isaac yelled.
“Why?” Snowy asked.
“Look, hear me out. This does not have to go like this.” Isaac said with his hands behind his back. “I don't want to fight but you can't force others to change.”
“He already did, it’s a mistake come back from it....” Snowy said. “He was successfully turned into Dragon... I’m only returning him to that.”
“But I’m still dragon I still have all his memories and such...though there is some things I’m not proud of doing as him...” John said. Justin hid behind Isaac.
“Then, let’s make you Dragon so you won’t feel bad.” Snowy said. John wince a bit as he tries to get his wings working again. “He is a pegasus and is out of human control, when comes to ponies to ponies why would I hear your no?”
“But that’s not fair!” John yelled, stomping his hoof on the ground. “I never wanted to lose my human mind! You forced it out of me and that’s just... well evil.”
“See? And you call us evil.” Isaac said with his arms crossed.
“No that’s the nicer thing someone did to you. do you remember being Dragon? You were happier than ever...” Snowy said. “And we had a lot of fun! And your family might not know John but they know Dragon...”
“But that wasn’t true happiness... you put that in me. We would have the same fun if I still John and my family would still remember me...” John said, feeling sad.
“Humans are so corrupted that they don’t see a great gift when it comes to them,” Snowy said.
“That is not true. They are just afraid.” John said. “Don’t you see we have a chance now for both pony and humans to live together in peace without fear.”
“Both sides in peace and harmony,” Isaac added.
Snowy huffed. “Harmony can’t happen with humans, they are born corrupted and corruptive.”
“No they are not,” Justin said as he sticks his head out. “We only want is peace.”
“So...this is the side no one knows.” John sighed. “I never thought you would be this shallow Snowy.”
“I’m just trying to do what is best for everypony...” Snowy said. “No humans, no pollution, no wars, no pain, no thieves...”
“We have a chance of harmony without resorting to removing the other race...if you want what’s best for everypony… This is it.” John said.
“That’s your human side talking. Dragon always knew the danger of humans,” Snowy said.
“Dragon also knows if there’s a chance for peace he takes it,” John explained. “Dragon only fights for peace and harmony not complete eradication of the human race.”
“This is a mistake and you know it...” Snowy said as she teleports away.
Isaac sighs. “This is going to be harder than I thought…”
“I hope she comes through...”John said as his eyes fold back. Then Alex runs up to them and bows.
“Excuse me but I just got in contact with General Lance.”
“What’s wrong?” John asked.
“Viktor has escaped,” Alex answered.
“What?!” Isaac and Justin were shocked.
“That's not all. He is also sending a large squadron of attack fighters and bombers to the city!” Alex explained.
“Are you serious?! Where’s the alarm we need all the help we could get. I got to get ready!” John yelled as he tugs on his bandages.
“I’ll get my fighter ready!” Isaac said as he rushes to his tent as Justin helps John with his bandages.
“We need to help him John.” Justin said. “He can’t do this alone.”
“Right!” John nods as he tears the bandages off his wings to show his battle wounds wings. Lyra walks up to them, holding something behind her back.
“Um…excuse me,” She said shyly.
John turns around. “Oh, hi Lyra.”
“Well I…” She blushed as she pulled out two flight suits that could fit a pegasus. “I made these just in case I was to meet any pegasi.
John blushed. “Wow…they look amazing.”
“Try them on,” Lyra said as she hands the suits to them. John takes the suit and slips them on with little trouble while Justin takes one as well and puts it on.
“What do you think?” She asked.
John looks at himself and smiles a bit. “I've always wanted to join the air force since I was a kid.”
“Me too,” Justin said as John chuckled. Then the air raid alarm goes off.
“You two better get ready,” Lyra said. “And come back safe.”
John salutes and winces a bit. “We will.”
“Lets go,” Justin said as he heads to the tent while John follows. As they got to the tent, Isaac's Su-37 comes out and heads to the dirt runway. Justin runs up to the fighter on the left side.
“Isaac! We are coming with you!” Justin yelled.
“Huh?” Isaac was puzzled.
“You can't do this alone so we are coming with you.” Justin said. “Right, John?”
“yep no nuclear blast won’t stop me from helping,” John said.
“Thank you my friends,” Isaac said as the flight crew members do final checks as the runway is cleared. Isaac turns on the afterburners and flies into the air. “Ura!”
John watches him leave. “Now it’s our turn.”
“Lets do this,” Justin said as he opened his wings. Alex and Lyra were watching as they saluted. John gallops at full speed with his black wings opening. Justin follows close behind. Soon they gain enough speed and John flaps his wings hard and he takes off. Justin follows close behind as they catch up to Isaac.
