When Chaos Stirs, A Tale of Two Worlds
Chapter 4: Chapter 3- Wanted
Previous Chapter Next ChapterIn the Chamber, Celestia focused all of her magic to seal the wounds of her beloved sister as Luna's body lay flat on the floor, who was pushed to her physical limits. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Celestia's wound on her upper leg still dripping with blood. Luna tried to speak, but only managed a low whisper.
"Sister…Your wound. It's untreated."
Her older sister only smiled, "You need this more than I do."
Slowly, her multiple stab wounds were healing. The bleeding stopped, and the holes left by the energy shard began to seal. Celestia stumbled a bit when a spit of pain shot from her upper leg.
"You're going to be fine." The white princess ensured her, her voice a little shaky, "I have medics on her way to treat me as well. Just rest; that's all I'm asking you to do."
Even though the princess's words were kind and sincere, Luna refused for her conscience to slip by her hooves, not after everything that has happened. An elite guard appeared at the door, standing tall with a salute; his words stale and disciplined.
"Your majesty. The nurses you requested just arrived at the tower. They will be here within minutes."
"Thank you for the report." Celestia said still focused on her younger sister's wound, "When you see us come out; have that artist come to my bedroom."
"Yes Mam!"
He left to return to his post. A little while later, the two sisters heard hooves galloping to where they were at. The nurses she requested were rushing to Celestia side, unpacking their packs to treat it with special herbs and dressings. By the time Luna's wound was completely healed, Celestia's horn was aching; she forgot how much magic it took to treat a wound, let alone multiple cuts and slashes. Celestia lay on her side to let the nurses get a better handle on her leg. They instantly cleaned the blood at the best of their extent, mixing the herbs in a little bowl and sprinkling the powder on the bandages. Celestia let out a small moan of pain when she felt the soft bandages making contact with her long cut. She smiled when she saw her little sister's eyes closed, asleep.
Hours later, Luna began to wake up. Her energy was still gone, but her body was in a relaxed state this time. She was greeted by her sister and a strangely dressed mare by her. The mare had the most curious black hat on, wearing black and white stripped dress. Her lips were heavily glistened with red lip stick, and black stocking covered her legs. She was holding a pencil with her mouth, sitting behind a canvas.
"Now, Lady." The mare called with a weird French accent, "Can you describe dissss…Character for Ms. Adelle, this hedgehog character your sister has depicted."
Luna gave her older sister a strange look before Celestia gave her an innocent shrug.
"It's Princess Luna to you, loyal subject." The younger sister noted to her in a disciplined voice.
"Yes, yes. Dear Prinzess. Now describe diz hedgehog for me, please."
Luna simply rolled her eyes, "I never got a good glimpse of him. His hair was spiked backwards, much like a hedgehog would. The one thing I remember much about him was his shoes. They were huge, and he was standing upright."
The artist was homed in on her canvas, drawing and erasing at will, "Yes, yes. Go on."
"His body was oval like. His arms and legs were very thin, and I could have sworn he was wearing gloves."
Luna only saw the artist drawing, completely focused. She saw sweat dripping from her forehead; who knew that artist can get tired out from their work?
"ADELLE HAS IT!" She screamed.
It made Luna and Celestia jump. The artist revealed the picture to Luna. She was surprised how accurate it was, it looked exactly like him.
"That's him." Luna confirmed.
Celestia leaded over and saw the drawing.
"Well done, my most faithful illustrator. Once again you have surprised me."
The artist puffed out her chest in a proud stance, "It is my pleazure to be working by your side, dear prinzess." She began packing, "If you would excuse Adelle, my excluzive talent is needed elsewhere."
"You're excused." Celestia kindly dismissed her, "Be sure to see the loyal publisher before you leave."
She made her way to the exit. As soon as she was gone, six other ponies came in, wearing goggles. They stood in a single file, formally standing on their four hooves and puffing out their chest. Luna already recognized who they were. Spitfire, Soarin', Fleetfoot, Blaze, Wave Chill, and Misty.
"Wonder Bolts reporting for duty!" They shouted saluting.
"I'm glad you're here." Celestia addressed them, "I have called you here for a great importance."
Morning came, and Rainbow Dash never felt so drowsy getting out of her fluffy bed. She dragged herself to the bathroom. Her mane was all scuffled up, like anypony who just got out of bed after an all-night party.
Least that flash incident was more than likely just nothing. She thought rinsing her mouth with water, while making a high pitch gurgling sound, still, how am I supposed to try out if I'm half asleep!
She splashed her face with cold water, trying to wake herself up with little success. She didn't want to begin her morning at all to tryout at all, she much rather sleep…Then she realized something very important.
"Wait…What am I doing? I don't have tryouts in the morning!"
She slammed her blue towel to the floor and marched straight back to her room, completely infuriated at herself. Just about to hit the bed, there was a loud knock on her door.
"What now?!" She groaned out loud.
She didn't even bother flying to her door step, she just stomped her hooves to the door way. When she opened the door, her eyes exploded open, pupils dilated.
"Hey, uh…Rainbow Dash." Spitfire greeted her, "Princess Celestia asked us to come get you; we need your help with something."
She didn't respond, only staring at them like a creepy statue.
"She said that you have exceptional flying skills we need to bring somebody to justice." Misty continued, "The element of magic has been stolen and she's offering a huge reward for her capture."
A little bitty smile crest on Rainbow's lips.
"She also offered a ceremony to knight his capturers." Fleetfoot added, "The highest honor she can bestowal."
They didn't hear her breathing at this point.
"Uh…Rainbow Dash?" Wave Chill asked her concerned.
She toppled over like a board, not a part of her body moving a single inch, not even her colorful mane. They stepped inside her house, surrounding her.
"Is she O.K?" Blaze asked looking down on her.
Wave Chill inspected her closely, trying to figure out what's wrong with her.
"…I hope so."
Sunlight poured into Sonic's eye lids as they begin to slowly open. He felt sore, not knowing why, but whatever his body had to endure earlier, it sure didn't like it.
Can't Eggman just take a hint for once? Sonic thought, remembering the portal that engulfed him.
He lie there for several minutes, letting the sores sooth at least a bit before even thinking about moving. After a couple of minutes, relief suppressed his pain somewhat, but Sonic just went ahead and stood up anyways. He stumbled but managed to ignore the pain and support himself on his two skinny legs. He almost fell again when he realized where he was at.
"What am I doing in the middle of a field?" He asked himself, letting out a little cough.
It sure was a change of pace for him. He was in middle of a dirt road, leading to a destination unknown since his sight was obscured by trees…Apple trees; that's all he saw was apple trees, rows of them; countless of apple trees along the path. The leaves on them were turning yellow; which was very unusual because before he left earth to confront Dr. Eggman, it was in the middle of winter. Then he remembered something; his headset was still attached to his ear. He held the little button on it down, trying to pick up his team mates.
"Hello?" He called, "Can anybody read me?"
Sounds of crackles and beeps filled his ear for several seconds, with no answer.
"Tails! Knuckles! Amy! Shadow!...Anybody! Come in!"
Miraculously, he heard someone talking on the other line. Sonic hear in closely as he could to make out the words.
"Sonic? Is that you I'm receiving?"
"Tails?" He cleared his voice, "Is that you?"
The voice became much more clear.
"Sonic!" Tails almost screamed with enthusiasm, "Thank goodness you O.K!"
"Wish that was true." He commented, rubbing his shoulder when he felt a little pain resurface, "That portal did a number on me. Where're you at?"
"I-I don't know." Tails answered, sounding a little panicked, "I think I'm in a swamp. I would fly but it hurts just to twitch my tails."
"Do you have any contacts with the others?"
"I'm picking up a signal from Amy and Knuckles' communication relays." Tails answered, "But I can't pick up Shadow's signal at all. He's either out of range or…"
Tail's voice cut off, too scared to complete his sentence.
"Shadow went through a lot worse than this, Tails." Sonic sighed picking up on Tail's tone, "Besides, he's was holding a Chaos Emerald when we were engulfed. If we survived, then surely he must have too."
"Your-Your right Sonic. Sorry…"
Sonic paced a little back and forth, trying to break in the sores on his legs.
"O.K…Tails, we need to regroup. Try to find your way out of the swamp and maintain contact with the others. I'm going to try to find higher ground."
"Roger that!" Tails answered like a pilot, "Over and out!"
Sonic let go of the button, praying in his head that he will be seeing him very soon. After being friends for so long, he would hate to see anything happen to him. He began walking down the path, hills and slops slowing him down as he climbed. This surely wasn't his speed, but he began to jog a little when his sores began to dull. The sun sure was out and shinning over him. He realized how refreshing it felt; there was something soothing about jogging through a field, instead of blazing through an area like he usually does. He saw a large barn over the horizon.
"Maybe I can ask some of the locals where I'm at." He said to himself.
"My, mister; you sure are fast." Someone commented to him.
Sonic checked around his environment and saw a little pale filly approaching him from the side. He stopped to get a better view of the creature. She happily walked over to him, panting. Her pinkish-red mane seized when she stopped right in front of him. There was a huge pink bow on top of her head, giving her a real impression of a little girl.
"You from around these parts?" She asked him curiously.
Sonic's eyes just dilated in complete astonishment, and a little drip of fear.
D…Did that adorable little pony just talk to me?
He kept a straight face a much as he could, "Uh…No."
"What's ya name, Stranger?"
His voice became a little broken. "S-sonic…Sonic the Hedgehog."
"Name's Applebloom." She cheerfully said to him, stretching out her little hoof, "Nice to meet ya."
He very hesitantly stretched out his hand to shake. She began to walk in front of him, as if trying to lead.
"Let me introduce you to the Apples Family." She said to him, "You look more exhausted than a turtle runnin a marathon."
She really didn't give him much of a choice, because that was the direction he was heading anyways. Still, he can take this chance to get some information; even though he much prefers to keep his mouth shut during the walk. Carrying a conversation with a little filly…It's not natural.
"Where am I anyways?" Sonic asked
"You don't know whut this place is?" She answered surprised, "This here's Ponyvill, or if you wunt to get more technical, Sweet Apple Acres!"
Well, that makes perfect sense. Sonic thought.
"Where did you come from? You sure do look like one of them foreigners."
"I'm, uh…Not from around here." He answered scratching his head, wishing to not go into detail.
The sores on Sonic's body began to fade away after a long walk to the barn. He could go ahead and run, but courtesy forbids. Apple Bloom ran ahead of him all of a sudden, disappearing from sight for several seconds before coming back with some pony else with her. Her long-golden ponytail trailed behind her as she ran alone side her sibling. She had freckles on the sides of her cheeks, and had a surprisingly built body. As soon as she got a good glimpse of him, she bucked backward; completely terrified of what she was seeing.
"Sis, run back to the barn as fast as you can." She mumbled to Applebloom, "Don't look back for nothin'."
"What's tha matter, Applejack?" Apple Bloom asked worried.
"Don't ask any question." She continued, staring straight back at the hedgehog, ready for any sudden movements, "Run."
Apple Bloom did what she was told, but still curious what was going on, so she hid behind a tree to observe what was going on. The cowgirl stood her ground, readying the rope in her mouth. Sonic can feel the tension in the air.
"You're that runt that stole the element of magic!" She growled at him.
Now he's more confused than ever, "Wait…What did I do?"
She hurled the rope at him, attempting to lasso him, but he dodge rolled out of the way. Sonic had just about enough! He blasted in the opposite direction, running as fast as his legs can carry him. One second he was there, another second gone. Applejack's mouth dropped open.
Sonic needed to get back to his objective. He can see a mountain just beyond town, and according to how fast he was going, he will be there within minutes. He ran through the center of Ponyvill in a flash of blue, passing and dodging pedestrians at will. The ponies around him only looked on with astonishment; never once have they seen someone run that fast. He was running at a speed well over a hundred miles an hour until he saw a shopping center coming right up ahead. Pinkie Pie was just having a regular stroll to her home, carrying a huge birthday cake on her back until Sonic squealed to a halt to make a tight turn. Dust followed behind him, covering her delicious cake with dirt. She just made out what it was before it took off. The pony now realized that somebody's after birthday party was completely ruined. If there was a time she became more furious than someone breaking a pinkie promises…This was one of those times. She put on a happy face, though; simply bouncing towards his direction. Sonic continued running; passing by a couple enjoying their coffee, which was completely ruined by a rush of wind that whirled their hot coffee onto the stallion's face. Finally, Sonic was out of town; running up alone the mountain. He contacted tail as soon as he reached the top.
"Tails, do you read me?"
"Yea." He answered, "I'm still at the swamp. I'm getting ready to take off the ground."
"Great, I should be able to see you."
Sonic then noticed a little piece of paper floating towards him. He grabbed it and glanced at it, beholding a sketch that looked exactly like him; then he read the text.
Wanted
Stolen the Element of Magic and attempted of the princesses.
If you have seen this hedgehog, Contact the Wonder Volts or Rainbow Dash Immediately
Do not approach. Suspect is extremely dangerous.
Sonic didn't really know how to react to this poster. He just awoken from unconscious and they suspect him for theft and assassination. He stood there, trying to figure out what was going on. Suddenly, he heard something behind him, something slowly breathing, getting closer and closer by each breath. He looked behind him and beheld the most terrifying pony he has encountered yet. Her pink hair was curled, pupils about the size of peas and a VERY angry-trembling frown across her face. She seized him, knocking him on the floor and pinning him down.
"How DARE you ruin a little fowl's fifth birth day after party!" She screamed at him in the highest pitched voice she ever raised.
Sonic was scared for his life at this point; apologizing profusely even though he had no idea what she was talking about.
"I-I-I-I-I didn't see you! I swear it!"
"Well, SOME hedgehog has to pay for the mess HE caused!"
"I-I don't have any money with me!"
Sonic suddenly saw her cheerful smile, her angry expression completely vanished, "Oh…Then I guess you would have to help me bake it again then."
He didn't answer her, whether he should just take that request or fear that there's something sinister behind it. When Pinkie didn't hear an answer, she narrowed her eyes at him.
"…Will you?"
Suddenly, while still pinned down to the ground, he saw seven flying creatures coming his way. They landed where they were at. They were ponies with wings at their sides; all of them had the same colored fur except for one, who had more of a lighter blue color and her hair was wildly painted, like the colors of a rainbow.
"Pinkie! You caught him?!" The colorful pony asked who couldn't believe her eyes.
"Who?" Pinkie asked Rainbow Dash innocently.
"The guy who stole the crown and tried to kill the Princess." Spitfire answered, "His wanted posters were all over town. You didn't see one?"
Pinkie stared at her in a complete state of confusion; then gave her a simple answer with a clueless smile on her face, "Nnnnope, never seen one!"
Sonic took advantage of this break and kicked the pink pony off of him with his giant shoes; jumping up and taking a fighting stance. The pink pony quickly stood back up and began to approach him, crouched down like a stalking tiger as the other seven ponies began to circle him.
"Listen! I have no idea what's going on." Sonic said out loud to them, trying to reason, "I've just came out of unconsciousness in an apple tree field and-."
"LIES!" Rainbow Dash shouted at him, "You tried to kill the Princess!"
"I don't know who she even is." He said defending himself, "I've just got here!"
"Don't try to trick us!" Fleetfoot shouted, "You know what you did!"
Sonic can feel space between him and the ponies around him shrinking, "If you would just listen, I can explain!"
"I've heard enough!" Rainbow Dash cried out taking flight, "We're taking you straight to the princess!"
"And you're going to be baking the biggest cake you've ever backed when I get my hooves on you!" Pinkie added
Rainbow Dash charged; Sonic just dodged her tackle just in time for her to miss. Before she had time to turn around, Sonic began running in circles at lightning speed, whipping up a tornado large enough to cover him and his soon to be pursuers. Dust flew all around in his path, choking Rainbow and the rest of the ponies as they try gasp for air. A few seconds later, and the dust settles. Sonic has disappeared.
"I can see him running to the canyons!" Soarin' called out just catching his dust trail.
At that, the seven pegasus took off after him; leaving a trail of smoke, except for Rainbow Dash who left a trail of Rainbow behind her. Pinkie Pie just simply bounced alone to their direction, humming a playful tune with a big smile on her face.
Sonic gained a pretty good distance from the mountains; a series of steep hills was just in front of then, followed by his destination. If he can reach the canyons, he has a good chance to lose them in the mess of dips and turns in it. Suddenly he heard a lighting strike, a bolt shot from above and missed him by just a few feet. He soon discovered that his pursuers were meters above him, shooting through the dark clouds.
"Huh, think they can catch the fasting thing alive?" He asked himself.
He blast off in a blue blur, readying himself for the most intense chase he ever had to face. Fleetfoot swooped down and tried to tackle him, but was way off target because of Sonic's quick acceleration when he saw the attack. When the pegasus flew out of the way, the other six began bumping into a cloud in front of him, hurling down countless of lightning bolts in front of him. Sonic's eyes widen in terror and turned his body sideways, and made a sharp ninety degrees turn that sounded like a car drifting around a corner. Fleetfoot regrouped with his team, and they split the formation, taking different clouds in an attempt to box him in. When Sonic tries to sprint at top speed, a lightning volt will block his path and force him to turn. The plan they were executing kept his speed at bay, Fleetfoot saw this chance and swooped down at him, this time heading straight for his target. Sonic couldn't accelerate, so instead jumped clean over her. While in midair, he executed a homing attack on the would-be tackler. The Wonderbolt never saw it coming. It sent her crashing into the ground; the impact was solid enough to knock her out of commission. Sonic tried to dash out of the trap. When no lightning bolt blocked him, he hit top speed; just like his next attacker wanted. Blaze was in the distance, patiently hovering in the mist of clouds; waiting for him to run. When she saw him, she swooped down and flew as fast as her wings can take her. She had her hoof out, flying head-on to her target like a missile. Sonic only had a split second to react. He formed a fist and flung his body sideways. He smacked her in the head at least ninety miles an hour. The impacts shattered her goggles and send her toppling to the dirt, knocking him out…Cold. Sonic was out of their trap and resumed running to the canyons. Rainbow Dash and the remaining four Wonderbolts regrouped high in the air, trying to keep up with him.
"He's awfully fast for a runner!" Wave Chill commented, observing his target.
"We'll never find him if he makes it into the canyons!" Rainbow Dash shouted out loud, trying to speak up against the rushing winds, "We only have three miles of hill tops to stop him. It'll slow him down enough for us to get ahead of him."
"All right! Wave Chill; Misty!" Spitfire called to her teammates, "Rainbow Dash is going to assist you two in ambushing him behind the hills." She looked to Soarin', "You're going to follow me to the clouds up ahead and try to knock him out with a bolt, are we clear!?"
"Yes Mam!" The rest saluted.
The hills did prove to be a problem for Sonic. The constant change of elevation slowed him down significantly as he kept going up and down like a rollercoaster. When he going over one of the hills, Misty popped out from the other side and tried to tackle him head on; Sonic side stepped to dodge her. She turned around and tried to tackle him again from behind. He thumped backwards; when she flew under him, he performing a flip and landed square on her back; saddling her.
"Oh, no you don't!" She hissed at him.
Sonic grabbed on to her light-blue mane for dear life as she flew straight into the air, performing twists and corkscrews as she elevated. When she flew downwards, she felt sharp pain on her neck as her mane was pulled. No matter what trick she performed, her mane was still clutched in Sonic's white gloves; even a full double loop didn't shake him.
"Some pony come help me!" She screamed in pain, "He's on my back!"
Wave Chill heard her cry. He flew up into the air charged at full speed at him, with his hoof stretched out. He was just high enough to miss Misty's head as readied herself to fly under him. Sonic thought fast and jerked her mane upwards as hard as he could.
THUD
Sonic hopped off of her backwards as they fell lifelessly to the ground; knocked out. The two ponies crashed to the ground, alive but not moving. Sonic didn't have much of a decent landing either. He landed belly first, dazed for a couple of seconds. Spitfire and Rainbow Dash were quick to jump on this opportunity as they flew to a cloud above him. Sonic rolled over just in time as a lightning bolt try to hit him. He quickly hopped to his feet and took off towards the canyons. He was almost out of the hills, just several hundred meters away of being home free.
"That's is it!" Spitfire shouted in anger, "Rainbow. How fast can you form a twister?"
"In my sleep! But it won't be big enough to stop him." She answered.
"It will with my help." Spitfire said to her before taking off, "Soarin', get behind me!"
Taking advantage of the terrain, the three ponies flew ahead of their target; flying several meters ahead of Sonic. They began flying in circles close to the ground, and after a second a violent-colorful twister formed, throwing smoke and small arcs of lightning around its surroundings. Sonic didn't have time to turn. It dragged him in with considerable force, and he found himself inside in the heart of the tornado. During his time inside, he felt electricity shocking random parts of his body as Soarin' and Spitfire's trailing black clouds engulfed him. His screams of pain were drowned out by the sounds of whirling winds and cracks of thunder. After several seconds of brutal electrocution, the three ponies broke the formation. Sonic was sent flying upwards into the air, completely disorientated. Rainbow Dash Soarin, and Spitfire took a final charge at him, ready to bring this scumbag to justice. Just second before hitting him, Sonic formed into a ball. They hit him, and he bounced to the last direction they want him to go…To the canyons. As he prepare to land, he disappeared inside the gaping mouth of the series of cracks. They hovered where they were at, shaking their heads in disappointment.
"We're never going to find him now." Spitfire moaned, realizing that the element of magic was forever gone.
Rainbow Dash was completely quite for several seconds, refusing to comprehend what the three just did. Spitfire and soarin' was just about to fly back to her teammates, until they heard Rainbow Dash let out a scream of frustration.
"NO!" She screamed, "We've got to look for him!"
"It's over, Dash." Soarin' spoke putting his hoof on her shoulder, "The Canyon goes on for miles and miles without end, not to mention the countless of channels it has. He could be anywhere in there."
"I SAID NO!" She screamed knocking his hoof off, "I am not going back to Princess Celestia empty handed! To be kneeling before her majesty just to say that HE got to the better of us!"
"Our team is injured, Dash!" Spitfire said raising her voice.
Rainbow Dash just looked ahead, not giving her another glance.
"Leave if you want, I'm not going to let him get away with this…Never."
She flew off, leaving a colorful rainbow behind her. Spitfire and Soarin', completely taken back by her reaction, flew back and checked on her team mates; one by one to check on their condition.
Sonic, his body aching from the electrocution, ran to a nearby cave inside the huge canyon. It was surprisingly a cozy place, damp and dark, but he surely wouldn't mind making it a home to call his own. Maybe he can rest here to let his body catch a break. He was praying inside his head that he would never have to endure something like that again. That GUN truck was brutal, he remembered running for his life from that thing, taking countless of turns to avoid being run over like a stupid dog crossing a road. He thought back and remembered some of the fun he had with it, but that was just a jog around the street corner compared to what he had to endure today. Ponies that can manipulate the weather? This is surely a crazy world. He sat down on the cold-rocky ground, staring at the sunlight seeping in through the entrance. It was surprisingly peaceful to look at, seeing the orange colors at the mouth of the cave. He can rest here for a minute, let himself wind down and take a break from all of the running, jumping, and fighting he faces almost every day…Until he heard slow-constant breathing behind him; a pink hoof laying on one shoulder and a butter knife creeping to his side. His eyes widen, feeling warm air breathing down his back neck. A high-pitch whisper tickled his ear
"We're going to be backing plenty of cupcakes when we get home."
"…AAAHHHHHHHH!"
He didn't even bothered standing up; he spun out of the cave, hitting the rocks in front of him. Rainbow Dash just happened to be flying above him, and she couldn't believe her luck when she heard him scream. He spotted her and took off in the other direction; she followed suit, more determined than ever to catch him.
Rainbow Dash felt her heart thump in complete fury as she gained speed. Sonic was hopping off the rocky sides and sprinted every chance he had.
"You think you can come into our world and do whatever you want!" She screamed.
She escalated into the clouds, bumping feverously into them as it sent dozens of lightning strikes down below. The bolts struck the rocks in front of him as he ran, causing a rock slide. Sonic jumped and hopped around to his best ability, dodging them all.
"You think you can try to kill our Beloved princess and believe we won't go down without a fight!"
She flew back down at lightning speed, performing dips and swoops through the canyons, trying to hit her target. He countered by wall jumping out of the crack, dodging her attacks in the process. His feet found solid ground and he took off along the canyons. If he can just run straight and hit top speed, he can lose her. He was met by a colorful mare flying head on to him, hoof out.
"AND DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE THE PIBLEGE OF HARMING MY FRIENDS!"
He side stepped, just inches away from her charge. She flew up high up into the air, screaming from the top of her lungs as head straight to him from the side. He found himself at the edge of the cliff. He jumped, feeling his shoes just skimming the tip of her head. The next thing he heard was her voice cutting off, followed by a loud crash at the bottom of the canyon. Sonic leaped clean over the gape, sprinting straight, running as fast as he could in a blue blur. Sonic looked behind him, seeing the canyons becoming nothing more but a speck.
"I think I lost her." He said to himself.
He slowed down to a cruising speed, letting himself catch somewhat of a break while running. He was about to contact Tails with his device in his ear until suddenly, he heard a faint boom behind him. The next thing he saw was a brilliant wave of colors passing above him, something truly spectacular, and he will never forget it. He looked behind him and saw the last thing he wanted to see…A charging cyan Pegasus. He tried to side step, but he was way too late. She him at full force, grabbing hold of him as they crash into the ground together, skidding along the dirt. When the dust settled, Sonic found the Pegasus on top of him, pinning him down with her front hooves. He never once saw a more angry and determined face, and he never felt so exhausted after enduring so much.
"You…Are finally going to pay." She mumbled.
He felt his eyes getting heavy, his energy completely deserting him. He made out six other pegasus and a pink ponie approaching him as his vision began to fail…Finally, his body began to shut down; ready to rest.
