The Tale of Storm Flare and Lightning Chaser

Storm flare woke with an unsettling jump. Something didn't feel right. He felt the scientists were planning something. No... Storm flare thought. I'm just overreacting... he thought, trying to reassure himself. You know what, better safe than noting. I better at least go check what they're doing Storm thought. He phased through his cell wall. This was an advanced power that he and his friend both had, but the scientists were unaware of ....for now.

          For as long as Storm Flare could remember, he and his friend, Lightning Chaser had been stuck in this facility, constantly being experimented on by the scientists who operated this place. Now, they both weren't born here, but rather they were taken from a small village south of the Ever Free forest. They were young and wouldn't resist when the scientists tried to catch them for using them as test subjects. Both of them only knew the scientists and of course each other. They had no idea who their parents were, only they were test subjects. Nothing more. From what Storm And Lightning could gather, the scientists were being paid quite a bit of money to try and create the perfect warrior. Different powers, good endurance and stamina, and incredible damage resistance. Now, even though the scientists did give them some sorts of odds and ends of those abilities,  they could never perfect it. Only certain powers were transmitted to Storm and Lightning, and as much as they both liked those powers, it took years of pain and patience to finally get a bit of power or strength or anything like that, so the facility was not such a great place. Now, after 16 years, the scientists have gathered all of the data they need, and no longer require the 'services' of Storm and Lightning.

                        Storm walked around the corridors as quietly as he could, until he heard the two scientists. He listened in carefully: "Sir, what shall we do about test subjects 54 and 55?" Said an old looking pony. "Who are they?" Replied his partner.

              "Storm Flare, a Pegasus 16 years of age with a gray body blue eyes and black with blue streaks in his mane and tail. We also got Lightning Chaser a Pegasus, 16 years of age with a white body green eyes and red mane with streaks of black. Color also matches his tail".

          " Well... we've had them here for a while. We already gathered the correct data we need but, we cant have these experiments  getting out into the public. They don't know there strength. They are incredibly unstable. Just dispose of them." As the two scientists ponies went away to tend to other business, Storm Flare was around the corner, shocked at what he had just heard.

           " What?! why are they going to get rid of us? Unstable? What do they mean? Oh man... this is bad I have to warn Lightning Chaser." Storm Flare ran as fast as he could, trying to process what was going on. They had been here for almost 15 years, so why would the scientists want to kill them? It was crazy Storm thought. Storm threw open the door to find Lightning sleeping in his bed.

          "Lightning chaser wake up! We have to go! The scientists say that they are gonna get rid of us!"  Storm wasn't sure why Lightning was always sleeping in- whether he was working on a project Storm didn't know about, or he was just plain lazy, it didn't matter. They needed to get out of here.

      "Ugh... Storm Flare 5 more minutes" replied Lightning chaser, rolling over to on his other side. Even at this time, Lightning Chasers English accent still really annoyed Storm. Lightning took pride in his accent, because it meant his parents wore probably from England, and that itself was more the what Storm knew about his parents.

          "No! Did you not just hear me? We have to leave now!"Said Storm flare, packing as much as he could. Lightning Chaser finally sat up.

            "Ugh...but why? We're good here right?"

        "No, the scientists said that they were going to get rid of us! Now lets go!" They both took what they could, and once again phased through their cell walls.

                         Both Ponies sneaked out of the facility to the best of their abilities.. But, it wasn't long before the older two   scientists took notice of the ponies trying to flee.

           "Hey! Stop it! You can't leave! You don't know what you can do!" The older pony yelled as he chased both ponies, trying to subdue them. Both ponies started trying to fly away at this point, not wanting to die. They ran down the long white corridors, trying to evade capture. The chase seemed to go on forever until some scientists got lost.

        "Come on! we have to keep going! if they find us we are dead! also we have to go thorough the fucking ever tree forest!" Storm Flare yelled, quite loud, as they both were flying down the corridor, close to freedom.

           "Okay okay! I'm coming! don't get your panties in a twist Storm flare!" Lightning yelled in response. Eventually, both ponies managed to shake free of the scientists and found there way out. They busted open the big metal door, leading to the exit and stumbled out into the open forest were the facility was located. They both soaked in the scenery for a second, enjoying the fresh air. Out of breath, Lightning asked,

          "Storm flare?"

      "Yeah, what is it lightning chaser?" Storm said back, out of breath.

           "Where are we going? I mean, do we even have a plan? I'm not even really sure where we are..." Lightning said, observing there outdoor surroundings.

             "Well, I heard the scientists talking about  a town named Ponyvile on the other side of the ever free forest. And we cant stop now, or we might get caught, so we don't really have any other options." With an observing nod, the two ponies went off.

Time passes...

       "Sweet Celestia this is  taking forever" Lightning said, sitting on a log to rest his hooves. They had been walking for roughly an hour, and Lightning Chaser didn't really enjoy walking. The sky was turning cloudy, and both ponies didn't want to be stuck walking in the rain. Lightning looked around, hoping to find a shelter of some sorts.

        "Hey whats that?" Lightning said, directing his attention to somewhere over to the North.

         "You know lightning chaser sometimes I swear you have ADD and that thing you're looking at looks like a ruined castle. Nothing special." Lightning was still looking at the castle.

           "Storm, it looks like light is coming from the inside! Maybe someones living in it! Maybe they have food!" Storm flare just went along with it.

            "Yeah your right lets go check it out just to shut you up." Both ponies cautiously approached the rotting wooden door. Lightning was the first to open it. He stepped inside, rather disappointed.

       "Wow ,this place looks like crap." Lightning said, peering his head inside. The place was definitely deserted, but Lightning couldn't shake a feeling...

               "Yeah, you said it Lightning." Storm said, walking in after Lightning. A loud bang erupted from upstairs, and both ponies jumped in shock.

    "Whats that noise coming from up there? Hell, it sounds like a fight!" Lightning said, walking toward the staircase, ready to ascend it. On occasions, Lightning enjoyed a good fight, which is why most scientists weren't to fond of Lightning. "Yeah, you might be right Lightning! lets hurry ans see whats going on! Both ponies rushed up the staircase, totally unaware of the danger that lied ahead.

            "You're never going to get away with this nightmare moon!" Twilight sparkle yelled.

     "Oh Twilight, you're so dumb!" Nightmare said with a chuckle, walking closer to the six wounded ponies.

       "I will bring upon an endless night and terrorize the people of Equstria!" Nightmare roared, making the whole place   quake.

         "Like we'll ever let that happen!" yelled Rainbow Dash, standing up, readying herself for a fight.

          "Bring it on!" shouted Nightmare moon, charging at Rainbow Dash.

         She broke the elements harmony... what do we do now? Twilight thought, as Nightmare blocked Rainbow Dash's charge, tossing her back to the floor. Nightmare stood over Rainbow, about to finish her, when...

          "Hey you can't treat girls that way you creep!" Storm Flare shouted, barging in the door. Lightning followed in behind. "Yeah, get away from them you freak!" Lightning said. They both noticed the gang of wounded ponies in a corner, avoiding being beaten by the monster before them.

              "Who are you guys?" Twilight asked, looking at the pony with the blue and black mane and the pony with the red and black mane with the funny English accent.

            "Look, that doesn't matter what matters is we take down this bastard." Storm said, trying to come up with a plan.

             "Lightning, work your magic and try to get some lightning strikes on her!" Lightning did so, and brought down a massive storm of lightning on the monster, along with some electric shock balls. The storm of lightning brought down the rotted roof on the castle, and the ball was enough to stop an elephants heart, but the monster still stood strong. Lightning did his best, but it barely dented the monster. No matter what they tried everything was futile. Storm Flare and Lightning Chaser both used their strength and resorted to beating the monster. Lightning hit her face, sounding a crack in the monsters bone structure, but she recovered quickly, grabbing lightning and throwing him across the room. He hit the wall with a loud "THUD", spilling some blood onto the floor boards, but Storm  was assured he would be alright. They both had endured worse before.

        Storm kicked the monsters leg then punched it in the gut, but as soon as the blow landed on Nightmare, she grabbed Storm and hit him square in the face, tossing him to the side like a rag doll. Nothing worked and the mane 6 were forced to watch hopelessly as the two ponies tried everything, only to be pushed to there limits by Nightmare moon. Both ponies were covered in blood and sweat, still trying to defeat Nightmare.

               How are going to beat this thing? Storm Flare wondered, bloody from the blows he received from the monster. Wait... I could try that new move I've been learning but is doesn't even work half the time... but i guess i have to try! Storm flare thought.

      "Hey, Lighting chaser!" Storm flare yelled.

             "Yeah? What is it?" Lightning said, landing incredibly fast punches on Nightmare, and dodging her attacks at the same time

           "I have an idea!" Storm flare yelled back, readying himself for his plan.

            "Well dammit what is it? I'm a little busy if you couldn't tell!" Lightning chaser yelled back, receiving a powerful blow to the face. He staggered backwards, wiping the blood from his face.

               "You use that new Lightning move you learned on her as a distraction and I'll use my new move!" Storm yelled back, preparing himself.

           "That actually just might work!" said Lightning, dodging a heavy book Nightmare had thrown at him.

               "Okay, lets do this!" Storm flare yelled.

        "Alright!" lightning replied, readying himself. Lightning chaser charged at nightmare moon "Take this chidori for a spin!" Lightning yelled.He charged, then jumped, spinning himself in the air like a bullet. He was soon surrounded by lightning and thunder and static electricity. The electric bullet was aimed straight at Nightmare moon, and she wasn't moving fast enough. He was confident, although his move missed and failed. He hit the wall, sending the biggest blast of electricity Storm had ever seen Lightning conjure up up the wall, demolishing it

     "Ha! you missed Nightmare moon taunted, not turning around to notice Storm charging at her.

           "He was supposed to miss!" Storm yelled, following up with

                "Eat this you bitch! RASENGAN!" Storm flare completed the move correctly for a change. He shot toward her, engulfed in flames and pure energy. He punched her once, sending her across the room. The move sent nightmare moon spiraling into a wall. Another crack, and a small puddle of blood assured that Nightmare had been knocked out for the time being.

          "I hope... that did her in" Storm flare said out of breath, the flames and energy dispersing away from Storm.

    "Yeah...me...too" Lightning chaser said, collapsing from exhaustion in a pool of his own blood, sweat and waht was left of his Lightning.

       "Lightning!" Storm said, staggering over to him, trying to stop himself from blacking out.

            "Wait let me see if I can help..." A yellow pony with a pink mane said, walking up to Lightning Chasers body. She put her head near his chest.

    "Well...he's still breathing. I think he just needs some rest, so he'll be alright..."She said quietly, waiting for a response from Storm.

            "H-hello?" she looked around the torn and bloody room, to find Storm on the ground, also asleep from exhaustion.

     "Well, what do we do with them?" An orange pony with a hat said, following up with

             "Should we just leave them here?"

            "What?! Are you crazy applejack? They just saved us! Lets get them to the hospital! Fluttershy, you think you can handle the one with the red mane?" Rainbow dash said, looking over at Fluttershy who was sill looking at Lightning's body.

    "Huh? Um Yeah sure thing..." She said, picking him up. Rainbow dash got Storm Flare, and gestured for the mane 6 to follow her as she and Fluttershy started to flying out of the demolished castle tower towards Ponyville.

"Y-you think they'll be fine being in Ponyville?"  Fluttershy said, flying next to Rainbow dash.

        "Yeah" She said smiling. "I think they'll be fine." She said, flying next to Fluttershy, carrying the two wounded warriors to Ponyville.
