"Skkkkyyy! Please stop it, please!" Lilly screamed her yellow head off. She had no idea what was going to happen next. I had already killed off the other fillies. I felt something break inside me, I felt the evil of this act cut me open. But I couldn't deny the rush, yeeeesss. The thrill, like playing a game...like jumping off a cliff and waiting for the last minute to catch yourself in the wind. It was so exciting, so fun. It filled my body with a dangerous adrenaline rush. I needed to feel it again, her friends went so fast. I felt awful but I couldn't help but laugh when I was done. The mixture of complex emotions drowning me, flashing from hate to love, anger to happiness, saddness to pure glee...it was an ecstasy. I let the little filly go and her screams were so loud that it only raised in volume as she got closer to the ground,"I love you Lilly! Tell your friends I miss them already!" I started to cry...I flew down to her body...somehow she had manage to survive. Her mangled twisted body lay in a heap, she uttered the most terrifying sentence to me...the cute lovable filly, always laughing and playing, 'Come catch me' she'd tell me..."Why?...W-w-why, d-d-didn't y-you catch me...S-s-sky....," That was they day I broke the sky.

I stretched my wings and then my legs, usually I would have brushed my teeth and maybe have taken a shower...but Silver insisted it was best we forget about hygiene for awhile. Silver always knows best...I wouldn't want to upset her again. The shower helped with the pain, hot scolding water, enough to boil flesh...distracts me. It helped to wash the blood from the fillies away, the dream would bring the stains back, every time. Everytime I had that dream she would ask me that qustion over and over again. I don't know why I didn't catch her...we were playing a game right...was I the only one having fun? Butter was sitting in the corner, staring at me," What...?" I asked, she looked away and huffed,"Is there a problem chick?"

"You used me...becaue you thought I would die. I understand, just don't know why you have to keep it a secret. It's not like I didn't already know" Butter said with a frown, she needs to can it already...

"Yeah, I wish you did...but you saved Silver...so we'er cool. Is that good enough for you?" I asked stretching my wings some more.

"Yeah...Breaker....?" Butter turned to me with a hopeful glem in here eyes.

"Yeah, what is it...?"

"Do you think, me an you will ever...get along" She asked in her raspy tone.

"I trusted you to protect Silver and you did just that...yeah chick, we'll be fine...Just don expect me to fuck you or something" I really wasn't planning on doing that, I wouldn't even give Silver that honor.

"Alright, thats fine with me...Why is it that you won't...'be with' Silver? I know you have feelings for her and shit," Butter rasped and coughed a few times.

"Thats known of your!- Urgh...every pony ask that question...I love Silver...I just don't want to do that..." I started to tremble, my teeth chattered and my heart thumbed against my chest. Calm down Sky, calm down...

"Sorry...i'm not all that use to this love shit...is it weird if...if I kinda love her too?" Butter looked confused, I felt the same way really.

"Nah, everyone here is lusting after that mare. I guess she's really has a way with us huh?" Butter chuckled at my response in a rasp, she stopped and reached to her back. The pain on her face made me twitch. The blood from her back was now on her hoof, we both stared at it for a long time, as if we were unsure of what to do about it.

"Always wondered what blood taste like, once I found out, I never really was curious anymore. But now..." Butter wiped it on the floor as Silver woke up, her silver mane flowed over her face like water or silk. Dammit she was so beautiful, she reminded me of how mares back home use to be so pretty and get all the stallions. What i'd do to be that pretty, at least I can see her...

"You two are up early...I hope your getting along..." She smiled coyly at us both,"We both smiled back. I was kinda of surprised at how much Butter had grown to like Silver...so fast,"I really do though. I need you killing the enemy, not each other."

"Don't worry chica, we'er on good terms...really." I gave her a small smile as she roused the others.

"Good..." she kicked lion and threw a pillow at Mouse,"I'd hate to have to make it work out...that wouldn't be fun, for you anyway..."

Damn chica, your always being so dark and creepy. I always liked it when she would do that, a mare who isn't afraid to push the boundaries, test our limits. The twins rose up together yawning and stretching. Big Sis was next to join us, in a few minutes we were all silently waiting for Silver to start her speech.

"I guess we should first aknowleged our guest for today. Everyone this is Cirly, she was the bastard that tried to kill me. Now I know you all are angry about that, maybe even the twins more than everyone. I asked them to heal her" Silver, really, I spent some much time and hate fucking that bitch up...,"Cirly, is there something you want to tell us...?"

Cirly sat there, quietly. She hadn't really done much since we woke up. Cirly was a strange mare. Her bronze mane and tail were all scraggily. Her left eye was purple and here right eye had multiple rings around here iris. The tan mare finally spoke up after a few moments of dead silence,"I was only doing my job...theres nothing else to talk about. If your going to kill me, please hurry."

Silver didn't look too pleased with the reply...but she softened her expression,"No, your wrong...I'm sure Malorie didn't just send one of you. I'm even more positive that you weren't supplied that stuff by any regular prisoner. And I have reason to believe that you know something about a tattooed mare, maybe used to work in a circus...Tell me the truth or nothing, but don't lie to me...

Cirly stared at the ground for a moment and then made eye contact with me,"I bet she still wants to beat the shit out of me huh?"

"Cirly...answer the questions," Silver demanded.

"Come on you cunt, finish the job..." Alright, she's pushing it...

"Silver....can I?" I asked, my wings started to twitch.

"No breaker...Cirly!" Silver yelled loudly.

"I'll just say your suspicions are correct..." Cirly sat that witha smug look on here face. That bitch. Silver didn't seem to mind it that much, she was actually smiling.

Something I wasn't expecting to happenen...happened. Silver had clamped her jaw down on Cirly's throat. Cirly's eyes went wide as Silvers teeth went in deep, slicing ateries and opening up veins. Silver pulled away and took a hunk of flesh with her...she spit it on the floor. Cirly spasmed for a few seconds, but soon enough she died. Lion of course didn't hesitate to eat the flesh left behind," Damn chica, was that really necessary?"

"I liked it!" Lion approved gorging on the flesh, chewing it and playing with it.

"Of course you don't have a problem with it. Silver if shes dead then what do we do now...?" I asked my wings still twitching.

"We didn't really need her...I just needed to be sure on something. Don't worry it was needed. As you all know I can't really just walk outside and expect to live through the day, and I will not have you all body guard me...thats what Malorie wants. So heres what i'm thinking, I need all of you to be out there prepareing for the upcoming power struggle. Each of you will help each other out, chances are your fair game. Even if Malorie isn't specifically after you, your still in danger. Basically, I need you to be recruiters. Starting with the mares that possibly supplied this assassin to kill me..."

"What!" I yelled out,"Silver thats...fucking stupid!"

"Sky Breaker...I know it sounds ridiculous...but i'd rather them be with me than on Malories pay roll. Now I don't know exactly were there at, but i'm sure if you ask around that they'll be something on them around here..." Silver wiped the blood from her face and continued," I'm counting on you all...Once you leave...you can't come back, not until you accomplish your mission..."

"Wait is that it?" Butter asked," Your just going to send us out and we'er susposed to..."

"Yes...I expect you to come back alive. Whether succeed or fail is up to you...but please come back breathing...I need every last one of you alive" Silver looked solemnly at the ground,"Now go...and don't get killed"

We were all a little confused but we understood the situation called for action. Everyone got outside of Lions den and made it out into the courtyard. As I began to leave Silver stopped me," Sky Breaker....." she called out, her silver eyes flashed red in the sun light coming from the barred window,"I love you Sky Breaker...I know it seems that i'm falling in love with every mare I see but...I know for a fact that I love you. Its just...if I ever left you..."

"Its ok Silver Streak...I'll never stop loving you. I'll do anything you need me to..." I leaned in to kiss her, but she only nuzzled me. Her warmth filled me with a happiness I didn't know was possible...,"Stay safe...we'll be back" I left Silver alone in the cell. The two guards Zeta and Iron locked the door tight and I assembled with the others in he court yard. The others had been talking while me and Silver were saying our farewells. I really wish I could figure out exactly what was going on with Silver, with all of us, but Mouse seemed to be making sense of things as I came through. This chick can really get things together, I still need to thank her for defending me yesterday...

"Alright everyone so we'er in a weird spot here, thats not a bad thing. Me and Sky Breaker are going to be the head of this operation...so if you need some help you come to us, got it?" All of the mares agreed, even Butter was nodding her head. I didn't know how we were going to get this done but I never did like plans much...just diving in something and hoping it works out, thats how you get shit done.

"Heres what we'll do, when we get some information on our targets we'll meet back here, even if we don't anything, after lunch. Then when we have enough info we'll go in for the kill. Things don't work as plan of course, but just remember that once you got some pony every pony else needs to know. Got it...good, lets get to work then." Mouse and I stayed behind as the others headed to the other cellblock.

"Hey Sky Breaker, you ok?" Mouse asked, checking the court yard for anything suspicious before turning back to me," you look nervous..."

"No i'm fine...its been a long time since i've lost it y'know?" I flapped my wings several times to get them ready for flight.

"Yeah...," Mouse scratched her bandanna, wonder why she wore such a dirty rag?

"Hey Mouse thanks again for yesterday...I wanted her to understand why I did it."

"You were under a lot of pressure, but I think you'd make a good leader...as long as you control yourself....I didn't want to say this in front of every pony but I have a possible lead on that blade. She goes by the name Swipe, It's possible that she's in Black Label, I don't want to take just anyone...if you can back me up let me know...I'm going to start digging some more stuff up on her..." Mouse took off to the cell blocks Silver was near.

I wasn't sure where to start but if anything I needed to go somewhere familiar. I decided to take a trip to my cell, it had been a long time sense I slept in my own bed. I flapped my wings a few times then took off. Nothing beats traveling in the air, speeding past all of the other ponies, watching as there heads turn to watch me. I guess most wondered why I never flew out of here...there was nothing out there for me anyway. My family had stopped visisting after my condition got worse, and all of the fillies that knew the ones I killed gossiped about me for weeks. Theres no pony in all of Equestria that would want me...except for Silver Streak. One day...one day i'll giver her what she wants. We'll share a real nice night together and...," Are you Sky Breaker?" As I got to my cell door I was greeted by a cream colored mare, her mane and tail had brown and red streaking through it.

"Yeah...why you ask?" I asked, remaining in the air keeping an eye on her.

The cream mare took one step forward,"Look, don't get all crazy alright, your room is rigged to blow alright...I gave a special piece of thread to this assassin and she didn't report back in to Malorie. I'm assuming shes dead, yeah?"

"You!" The mare jumped back into the wall,"You gave the wire to that...bitch!?

"Yes I did but hear me out Breaker..." I rushed to her and slammed her head against the wall,"Ah! Dammit! I'm sorry, really! I was just doing my job, I give my services up for coupons and protection....I just couldn't live with you blowing up into tiny pieces. I've heard some crazy shit about Silver. I didn't want to be the reason she goes crazy and kills everyone!" the cream mare trembled in my grasp, this fucking bitch, she could have killed her, my Silver!

"Can you disarm it..." I said through grit teeth.

"Sorry...I could if I made the bomb, but my shit is ameture at best" I let her go and trotted over to the trip wire.

"Could I could I break through the wall, bybass the bomb?" I asked toching the wall of my cell, my sanctuary. If only this fucker knew how impotant it was to me.

"No sorry Cielo that would most likly trigger the bomb" she said pointing to the wire," Its wired to incinerate you when you enter the room, so theres no way you'll survive, not even to tell any pony who did it to ya."

"You called me cielo, you speak spanish" I asked, I should have known giving the accent.

"Just to impress people, i'm real rusty..." She looked at me as she clearded her throat.

"What the hell am I susspose to do now...?" I looked over to her, this was what I needed. She was one of the mares, so..."Your coming with me"

"Whoa Cielo just give me a second, urgh wait a sec," I grabbed her by the mane and began to take off," Breaker chill out, look I got some shit that I need to take care of before you take me to your boss alright!"

"Like what!?" I yelled bringing her face to mine,"Tell me whats so important or I'll break you fucking neck!"

"Ok...ok, Malories mares have been keeping an eye on me. I got lucky when I finally slipped by, if you can give me some time we could get rid of them. Is that cool, huh Cielo, huh?" she pleaded as my grip loosened.

"I wouldn't want them finding out were Silver is...ok I'll give you some time..." I let her go, she gathered herself and began to talk.

"Meet me back here in twenty minutes...." she darted out of the hall way

I returned to the court yard, the picnic table was empty but I was positive that the others would show up eventually. A few minutes had passed before Mouse decided to show up, she looked tired,"What happened to you?"

"Just...fell asleep..." Mouse yawned and took a seat next to me.

"Are you serious! You fell asleep!? I know you realize how important it is that we...Mouse?" she fell face first into the table, she picked herself up, groaning in pain.

"It wasn't by choice, the mares we'er looking for are surrounded by trouble...Swipe has a lot of enemies, and any looking for her is either trying to kill her or any pony else in the way." Mouse looked at me and smiled," How about you?"

"Well i-"

"Cielo! Cielo! Haha well ok so when I said twenty minutes I meant right now!" The cream mare tuged at me," C'mon Breaker i'm serious these guys are trying to kill me!"

"Fuck! Not better i'm afraid...Mouse come with us!" I grabbed Mouse as she stumbled off the tables seat.

"Alright alright just give me a minute..." Mouse started trotting to keep up, I flew until I was ahead of the two mares.

"Where are we going chick!" I yelled at the cream mare.

"Your cell come on I got a plan, trust me Cielo!" the cream mare raced ahead of me, behind us was ten Malorie mares trotting at full speed weapons all pointy and blunt. Fine i'll trust her for now.

We arrived at my cell door but I was still unclear of the plan or why we needed to be at my cell door. The cream mare caught up with me, she was laughing as she had finally made it to the door,"Ok Cielo if you don't hate me now you'll hate me for this...we'er going to get rid of that bomb and those mares in one blast. How does that sound...?"

"You can't be....fine, fine but your the bait. Stand in front of the door!"

"What!?"

"Do it! Mouse your with me," Me and Mouse raced over to the other end of the hallway. We watched as the mares came from the hallway and surrounded the cream mare.

"Thread, were'ed they go...in the room didn't they...move!" A perl white mare with red face paint shoved the mare to the side. As the mare began to enter the room I had only a few seconds to do this right...

I got ready and arched my wings. I pushed myself through the air faster than I ever knew I could. I raced to the mare opening the door and pushed her all the way inside. By the time the mechanism clicked into place I had already grabbed the cream mare. We landed at the very end of the hall. Behind us my cell room exploded and rocked the hallway, all of the mares in front of the door were mangled and bloodied. There mares closer to the blast radious had there bodies shredded. Urgh...why did I feel hungry...

"Hahahhaa Whoooo! Now I know your pissed but that was fucking sweat huh!?" The cream mare stood up and offered a hoof to help me up. I took it and got up. My wings ached but my body was still together, upon inspecting my room the mare inside was nothing but guts, bones, and ash. I could have been her but this mare saved me, even if she did cost me my sancuatuay. I have a new home...and thats wherever Silver takes us...

"I'm Thread by the way...I make shit like this sometimes...not as intricate though...Sorry about helping the assassin..." Threads smile dissapered as she noticed the havoc wreaked on my room.

"Thanks for telling me about the bomb...you didn't have to but you did...When I feel that it's safe to let you see Silver I'll show you to her," I smiled at the Thread," Stay out of trouble...I wouldn't want to drop you out of the sky.

Thread smiled nervously but laughed anyway. We sat there together as my room smoked and the smell of charred ponies filled the air. I hope everyone else finds this easier than I did...Dammit her screams, I could here them as the bomb was ignited...she screams so loud...

You need her...you need her to survive...
