Windy Peaks

After they defeated the army, they returned to Pony's house. He still thought, that he didn't deserve such mercy. After all, if the experiment hadn't change Fluttershy in the gamma giant,now known as the Shyulk, everypony would be dead now. He still was guilty.

"We forgave you. Forget it!" Hawk tried to cheer up his friend.

" I am thinking on a very importrant question'' - he answered

" And what is it?" asked Twilight.

" Does the suit make the pony or the pony makes the suit? Am I guilty, or it was the Iron Stalion? Wasn't it my greatest mistake?"

" I ain't think so, " Applejack told him " , you did the right thing in the right time. You coulda just betrayed us to the end. But you said everything to us, like a friend. "

" It even rhymes" - Spike noted

" Alright. So let's return to the importrant things. After the wind lord knows that, he will surely attack us with twice the soldiers. That's why we should attack first. He only held a little group of normal soldiers and I think we eliminated them all. Now only the wind spirits remain. They are made by his hoof, so when we destroy him, they will be destroyed too. Our plan should target only the lord, because the troops are invincible. They should never find out, that we are there. " Stark spoke.

" What's the plan? " asked Celestia

" Well, the problem is, that he lives on the highest peak and half of you don't have wings. " the stalion replied. " The only solution is... my fly tech! "

" The suits? '' supposed Rainbow Dash.

" No. They are way too hard to control. There is no way, that you learn to fly with it from the first time. And most of them have voice recognition, so if the soldiers breach my house, they couldn't use the suits. On the other side, I have invented a more simple way to fly, my PFD: Personal Flying Devices. Here they are. " said he and revealed a very strange looking gadget. It had two jet turbines and a steel ring connecting them.

" The controls are way more simple than those of the Iron Horse armour. They can reach thrice the velocity of a pegasus making a sonic rainboom, so I've turned them on gear 1 - the speed of a normal flying pegasus. It is vital to stick together, because the aerial forces of the wind lord can strike at any time. this rope, " said he and got a rope, which both ends were in the steel ring, that connected the two turbines " , goes in your mouth. If you pull right, you go right. If you pull left, you go left. I firstly thought to use the mind sensors, that I use in the Iron Stalion technology, so you just think of turning in a certain direction, you turn, but this is more simple and better for you. These flying devices don't have built- in weapons. You'll have to rely on the lord of the Ice, Hawk and my Iron Stalion battle armour. Questions? "

" Yes. What will happen, if I.. if I... " Fluttershy wasn't sure how to say it.

" If you turn in the Shyulk during the flight, you'll fall like a stone. Shyulk is powerful enough to stay without injuries from falling from so high, but we will lose a poweful ally. So keep calm and fly on. " Stark told her. " Ready everypony? "

" Ready! " answered the group. Twilight, the princesses, Hawk and Rarity put on their PFDs. Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, Pinkie, Cadence and Glace got ready to fly. The assembly mashine showed from the floor and after not more than a minute, the Iron Stalion stood in front of them.

" It will be a brief flying. But a bumpy one too" spoke Stark from the suit and flew through the balconee. Everypony followed him.

" It feels strange, not like flying" Luna said.

" Yes. " Twilight agreed.

They were about half the way, when they heard Pony saying:

" Here they come. Stay close behind me, Hawk and Glace"

" I thought they were invincible! " Twilight spoke

" Very stupid too" he answered. The army was getting closer. Stark spoke:

" They are easily distracted by light, because they are colour blind. Hawk, prepare your show arrows. Glace, use the brightest ice ray you could produce"

The group could already hear the horrifying sounds from the wind spirits. Then Stark shot a repulsor ray out of his front left hoof. The dumm ghosts went down and followed the light. It vanished and they flew back.

" Hawk, don't let them come back! " Pony told him

The archer shot a arrow, that left a track of smoke behind it. The silly things were tricked again. After a few repulsor rays, ice beams and smoke arrows, the soldiers were so down bellow, that the group couldn't see them anymore.

" We handled them. And we are finally here!" the Iron Horse told the group. All of them could see a bunch of towers on a very high peak. They succesfully landed on a the landing platform of the wind ghosts and hid their PFDs behind a rock, so the guards don't see them.

" Breeze is in the base of the highest tower. That's were his throne room is. We should sneak. " said Pony with a very quiet voice.

They succesfully sneaked the first and the second floor. But on the third floor Pinkie stepped on a fallen metal cup and made a horrifying noice. The guard closened to see what's happening. Luckily hawk suceeded to launch an arrow at the opposite side, where another metal cup hung. It made the same noice again and the guard, sure, that it was the wind, returned to his position. There wern't any other accidents on the way and they reached the throne room. In there they saw the same wind spirits, that they fooled earlier, whining to their leader. He spread his six wings, stood up from the throne and yelled at them:

" How can you be so stupid! The Iron Stalion tricked you with his lights?!? What should that mean? How can you be so stupid!!! "

Dash could see the wind lord better now. He had only one horn, but a whole 3 pairs of wings. The first two were pegasus wings, the second two - changeling wings, and the third one - bat wings, like the night guards at the Royal Palace. It was obvious, that he was the king of everything, that flies.

" You are as blind as your wind spirits, Breeze! " Pony revealed himself.

" The Iron Stalion! Catch him, guards! " yelled the wind lord

Before the spirits could even react, Pony Stark flew in the air and fired a repulsor ray through the window behind them. They immeadietly jumped through it and chased the light. Breeze got his head in his front hooves:

" It's hopeless."

But then he lifted it again, when he saw, that the whole gang revealed itself.

" This time you bring friends! How cute! You think, that the key to victory is in the number! I'll prove you're wrong by beating you all alone! "

"Better for us. " replied Hawk and fired an arrow at him. The wind lord swung all of his wings forward and the created wind stopped the arrow and it fell.

" The material can't stop me, fool! "he laughed

" How about energy ? " Pony shot a repulsor ray .

The wind ord protected himself with the aromour on his front hooves. The repulsor ray was just absorbed.

" The same efficiency. " he laughed again.

Rarity jumped at him. The Widow made her so agile, that Breeze realised what's happening after the strong kick in the face.

" You shall pay for that! "yelled he and sent a poweful wind, that hit everypony but Fluttershy and Pony Stark in the columns behind them. They were the last ponies standing.

" I think now it's the perfect time to be angry, Fluttershy. " spoke Stark.

" Well, that's my secret, Pony. When you see, that nopony around you is as kind as you, you are always angry!! " she replied and began to grow again. Even Breeze was intimidated, when he saw the giant green monster, that stood on two hooves, in front of him

" Stop! Surrender! You're all beneath me, scum! " he yelled. Shyulk didn't like that at all. Before he can react she grabbed his hind hooves with her front hoof, much more flexible now than normal, hit him thrice in the floor and let him rest a bit. Then, exactly when he thought it's over, she hit him thrice more and he was unconcious. When he woke up, he saw everypony looking him angrily, Stark was with lifted helmet and held his front hoof ready to fire, Hawk with a stretched bow, Glace with a shining horn and Shyulk in the behind, ready to smash.

" Last words? " Pony asked

' Oh, dear. ' though the lord, but said:

" Something more special? "

" I think you want the Gallaher! " Pinkie said

" You are absolutely right, Ms. Pie! " Stark supported her and sttod in a vertical position. After the strong unibeam from the Arc Reactor the only thing, that remained, was a beatiful emerald. Twilight put it in the medalion and a portal opened in the nearby column.

" Ready? " she asked.

" Wait! My fly tech! " Pony spoke

" And your suits too ! " Luna added.

" Oh, they all have built- in teleport devices. I forgot that. Whatever. " he remebered and past with his new friends through the portal.
