Hot Streak felt the effect of weightlessness for a split second as she sailed through the air, before she found herself slammed down to ground, hard. Rainbow landed her full weight on top of Hot Streak's. If Hot Streak didn't already have all the air expelled from her lungs, it would've happened now.

Though as having proven in their past encounters Hot Streak had a high pain tolerance. Grasping the hilt of her sword she swung causing Rainbow to fly back. With a flap of her wings she began to ascend up into the air as a hostile look flashed on Hot Streak's face.

Channeling her pegasi magic purple lightning began to envelope the blade. "That maneuver…Stormy…taught you…you'll…make fine practice."

Rainbow's head whipped back and she let out a howl of pain as a cut formed on her nose. She began to bleed as Hot Streak charged her again. She slipped away and under a slash putting the deranged Pegasus in a head lock.

"Lets see you use your freaky sword no…" Rainbow's taunt was cut off by pain. Hot Streak had slammed her head back into Rainbow's face.

The flame hair Pegasus began to repeatedly throw elbow strikes to Rainbow's head. However, due to her current position, her hits carried little power and only served as annoying distractions to Loyalty.

Rainbow used her knowledge of Pegasus bodies and speed to her advantage. Moving her right arm she had the briefest of seconds to side it under Hot Streak's shoulders and jammed her nail in the nerve clusters for Hot Streak's wings that resided in between the muscles.

Hot Streak grunted in pain as she felt the vicious attack to her cluster, rocketing pain signals throughout her shoulder, chest, and wing.

She frantically used her good wing to dig into Rainbow's side and flung her upper body weight backwards to flip over and slip away from the hold.

She saw the open opportunity to deliver some vengeful strikes to her opponent's exposed torso. The rapid slashes narrowly grazed several times only for Rainbow to twist and used her armored pieces to block the strikes aimed at her organs. Rainbow let out a pained yelp with she was hit by the lightning current, but being a Pegasus was able to shake off the pain much better than the other two tribes.

Hot Streak jolted back as Rainbow's left wing flexed in a way to where she had a shot at the Pegasus with the harden tip.

Using her speed Rainbow blitzed forward and struck Hot Streak's face.

She followed up with a second strike that caught Hot Streak's right eye, causing the mare to jerk her head back further and away from the pain.

Her vision was furthered blocked as a third punch followed that began to appear like an image? Tanking another hit Hot Streak barreled through the pain and snagged Rainbow's wrist much to her surprise. She then jolted the arm back painfully and began pummeling Rainbow Dash before the mare had a change to react.

Ignoring the pain surging in her head Rainbow boosted herself up and snagged her legs around her attacks arm and used her wings to hoist herself up into the air. A yelp escaped her mouth as Hot Streak began trying to skewer her with the blade. Folding her wings up Rainbow began to make a rapid drop to which as predicated caused her to bail.

Rainbow's arm was throbbing with pain, but it was still usable. "Was that all you were taught? You disappoint me Loyalty." The coolness in the insult ruffled Rainbow's feathers, but two can play that game.

"What's your deal with Spitfire and Stormy away? Sad you weren't cut out for the Wonderbolts? Oh, or maybe you were snubbed at a signing?"

The amusement died from Hot Streak's eyes.

"Any reason you look like them? What got a bit too enthusiastic and tried to dress like them? I have to say the dye job looks like it was done by a hack."

Hot Streak began to tremble in anger.

"Face it Hot Streak you're a psycho. A vicious violent Pyscho who only cares about herself. Who puts others in danger without any consideration for their well-being. It doesn't matter who you physically hurt or whose feelings are damaged. All that matters is what you want!" Rainbow herself was shaken up by the exclamation. Where had that come from?

Deep down. Had she been carrying those insecurities deep down?

Hot headed.

Had a fierce temper.

Reckless.

Skilled flier and fast.

Liked to boast and stroke her own ego.

There were just too many similarities to ignore. She was seeing herself. Herself without the value of Loyalty and it unnerved her.

Hot Streak's armor began to shift and change. The exposed parts of her body were soon cover as the armor began to shift and segments grew and slammed together with clank.

The draconic head of the armor began to form. "Loyalty. This is your last moments on this world, but don't be sad. My mother and sister will be joining you soon."

Rainbow's eyes widened in shock. 'What?'

The air left her lungs and her body crumbled with blazing pain as she crashed through several trees. She narrowly avoided the hoof and began to retreat. Hot Streak's new found speed was insane.

Rainbow Dash began to take off at top speed with Hot Streak following in hot pursuit. In this state Hot Streak would no longer feel pain. She would keep on fighting until her body was completely broken and unable to fight. So Rainbow knew she had to finish this before the Pegasus killed herself.

She would be lying if she were to say finding out the pegasus's relation to her heroes hadn't influenced her decision, but there were still pieces missing. The Nightmare fiasco would not truly be put to an end until they wrapped up the loose end from every angle.

'Loyalty! If you have any more tricks or mystical powers or whatever I can use a hand!' Rainbow thought as Hot Streak slowly began to catch up. A faint glow echoed throughout Rainbow's body as she slowly began to ascend up. The faint glow began to brighten the color of her feathers as new power surged through Rainbow as she dived her speeding climbing up in machs.

Triggering the Sonic Rainboom Rainbow did a sharp U-turn back to Hot Streak who came to a sharp stop. "

"Die!" Raising her blade a ball of intense and crackling purple energy appeared from the tip of Hot Streak's sword. With that she let loose a swing shattering the sound barrier launching the deadly comet at the personification of Loyalty.

Rainbow's fur glowed white and her hair radiated as the cone intensified and glow as she slammed into the comet.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAH!" Her mind consumed by vengeance Hot Streak was certain in her victory only to notice her comet attack was not descending, in fact it was being pushed back.

"Heeey! Think you dropped this!" Rainbow shouted from the other side as she continued to force the attack back.

Hot Streak let out a shriek of fury as the attack was launched back at her. Using her sword Hot Streak blocked the comet, but Rainbow was not done. Piercing through the comet she slammed through Hot Streak's sword and landed the finish blow on the Pegasus shattering her armor.

The battle was over. "I…lost." Hot Streak found herself following to the ground. 'Beaten by some upstart. I guess I was doomed to fail from the start.' She was expecting to hit the ground and have darkness embrace her at last only to be caught and slowly glided down. "Why?"

"I'm not a cold blooded killer. Killing with the intent to kill should be a last resort or to protect others. My important someponies taught me that." Rainbow explained letting her not so gently dropped once they were on the ground. "Now answer me this? What is your buckin deal? Why are you so stir crazy?"

Hot Streak chuckled. "I…I haven't thought about that day for so long."

"Mommy…mommy…" Little Hot Streak let out a mixture of a whimper and sigh. It was always like this. Today was just supposed to be their day. Her mother had promised.

While she liked spending time with all her aunties and uncles from the Wonderbolts her mom never spent time with her. She was always busy with training and the shows.

The only saving grace had been when her mother was having her little sister so she couldn't perform dangerous tricks she could only instruct and do paperwork.

Little Spitfire, her favorite little foal in the world. They were going to have so much fun and their mother was going to spend all their time with them, reading stories, playing, and teaching them how to fly.

Or so she had thought. Once Spitfire was weened to a bottle there went Stormy, back to flights and performing. And that left her and Spitfire being raised by Light Wave. She had been old enough to know Light Wave wasn't her father. He was her step father and Spitfire's father, but he was nice to her. Spent time with her and let her call him daddy, but it wasn't the same. She wanted to spend time with her mom.

"Mommy's busy." Stormy said distracted as she continued to get mobbed by fans asking for autographs and questions.

Little Spitfire began to whimper and tried speaking. "Commeh…Commeh…"

"Silly baby, my name is Comet." The filly said to the foal who started to whimper, on the verge of crying. "Mom I think Spitfire is hungry." It was just supposed to be the three of them. Her mom had promised to spend time with them.

"Go get the bottle out of my bag. You're a big girl right, you can feed your sister." Stormy's focus was divided between her daughters and her adoring public.

Comet sighed. She began walking over to the park bench away from the crowd around her mother. Ignoring the chatter and bright flashes. "Don't worry Spitfire. Big sis will always be there for you. I won't ever leave you." She said as she went over to the bag on the bench. "Time for some eat eat sis." A shadow suddenly loomed over her. Comet turned and she froze in fright. The only thing she noticed was his pale cornflower blue for his mane and coal black eyes.

"My mother…my mother cared more about her fame than her children. She could have saved me, but didn't. The Captain of the Wonderbolts unable to catch a common kidnapper> Please. I was an unwelcome burden gone." Hot Streak let out bitter laughter as she began to cry. This had been the first time she had cried since that fateful day.

"I'm so sorry Comet!" Both looked up in surprise to see Stormy Flare and Spitfire descend. "I know you think I abandoned you but…"

"Just leave me be. Don't act like you care now…Sunfire!" she spat out making Stormy wince.

"Comet…b-big sister." It seemed so surreal to Spitfire. This was Comet. The sister she had always known, but had never gotten to know. The one she was too young to remember. "Just…just let her explain."

"Very well Sunfire." Hot Streak murmured.

"And if you thought that last trick was impressive. I've been working on a new maneuver." Stormy watched as reporters hastily began writing down everything she was saying.

Suddenly the screams drew her attention. Her daughters. A group of hooded ponies were making off with her daughters. "COMET! SPITFIRE!" Stormy screamed as she took flight. The group had split, The Pegasus taking off with Comet while an earth pony was moving off with Spitfire.

"GIVE THEM BACK!" The roar that escaped the Wonderbolt's mouth was chilling. Without a single hint of consideration her wings ripped through the Unicorn's that turned to fire her without consideration. The recklessness cost her the ability to flight temporarily as one of the spells struck her nerves.

Her wing blade slashed the throat of the would be kidnapper before he could even utter a word. Stormy dove and caught Spitfire and her attention turned to the retreating figure. "Comet! COMET!" She screamed ignoring the wails of the foal in her arm. Her panic and fear consuming her as she tried to fly unable to get sufficient lift as she fell to the ground.

"Call the royal guard!"

"They got that filly!"

"Somepony do something!" The several Pegasi in the ground that finally wrapped their heads around what happened began to give chase.

"My baby! MY BABY! LET ME GO!" Stormy screamed as she fought against the ponies trying to stop her, trying to tell her she was frightening or could be hurting the infant in her arms. Comet and her captor had disappeared out of sight.

"Bring back my daughter!" She broke down into tears as she hugged Spitfire, her spirit broken.

"Flying…being a Wonderbolt was never the same for me. I…I was so ashamed…and it hurt. I soon lost my enthusiasm and enjoyment from it, but I kept at it. Every show. Every trick. It all reminded me on how I failed you and that suffering I felt was my self-appointed penance for failing as a mother. I dedicated so much of my money and time into finding you Comet, but you were gone without a trace. I…I'm so sorry I failed you."

Hot Streak turned her attention to Spitfire. "You stand by mother? Did it…did it get any better?"

Hot Streak hesitated, this was a difficult question, a loaded question. "Mom…mom was always there for me. Every parent-teaching contest. Every flight practice. Every award. She was never too busy for me, even at the risk of being dismissed, but I guess the managers knew they couldn't handle the blowback of firing such a popular athlete, especially one who lost one child and was dedicating so much time to another one. Comet….mom was always there for me, but I knew it wasn't about making up for your loss. She…we missed you terribly. Every birthday we went out to that park. Once a month we would check in with the authorities for a hope, a chance at finding you. Your loss has affected the both of us and we want nothing more than to have you back. Comet come home."

Hot Streak began trembling and looked away. "I can't…I…they did something to me. And…everytime I see you. Hear your name. It makes me so angry. I…I want to kill you. All of you. The Wonderbolts. Everything that you are makes me sick. The only reason I can remember that much is because whatever Loyalty did knocked me on my ass enough to where I can remember things. Bits and pieces. A spell. I can't be near you. I…I'll kill you if I get the chance."

"Don't worry Hot St…Comet," Rainbow connected. "Twilight will help you. She's a genius when it comes to magic. We'll remove the spell."

"Then you better hurry!" The loud rumbling roar of an Ursa echoed throughout the area. "Midnight has unleashed an Ursa and its heading its way to the town and magic won't work on it. Midnight has saw to it. It was modified by that freak Cold Brew. You'll need the insane monster strength of one of the Princesses to take it on." The element of Treachery took flight and shot off.

"What the buck was that?" Rainbow asked as she turned her attention to Comet. "What's going on?"

"Midnight…she's calling upon the Elements of those of us defeated. Even with her current power her opponent must be too much for her. You best hurry Loyalty! If she absorbs combines all eight power sources she'll surpass even the princesses!"

"Eight? Isn't there only seven of you guys for us Elements?" Rainbow asked confused.

Comet let out a bitter chuckle. "Come now. Why would Midnight work with a Changeling Queen and let her absorb an Alicorn's power? Do you really think she would let such a dangerous power that could threaten her live?"

"Rainbow Dash! Go! Equestria needs you!" Spitfire urged her. It was obvious that the threat on the horizon was above her capabilities. Only the Elements or the Princesses could do something now.

"I'll be back. I promise you Comet you'll get the help you need." Rainbow Dash took fight and made her way to join the others.

Good lord these chapters are taking a lot out of me. Anyway, phew, finally, the stuff I hinted at from the very first chapter Trixie was introduced in was coming back. I wonder how many of you remember that? 150 chapters later the foreshadowing has picked up. XD But yeah this is why I keep telling you guys to go back and reread the old chapters, but mainly for all the images I been adding. My artist is back this week and I am getting the sketches today and will have five new images added to the story by Sunday.

Anyway with any luck I should finally finish this arc tonight.

Also fair warning the next chapter is probably going to get really, really dark.
