Twilight's Change
Chapter 7: The Rage Of The Swarm
Previous ChapterHowever, as most of the Mane Six hugged one another, Rainbow Dash began to regain consciousness, as she noticed Fenrir, who had some green Changeling blood on his claws. This caused the cyan Pegasus to literally jumped up onto her hooves, as she screamed, "What the hay is that thing!?!"
From those words out of Rainbow Dash's mouth, it got both Fenrir's & the Mane Six's attention. Twilight approached the terrified Rainbow Dash, as the former unicorn said, "Easy there, Rainbow Dash. He's not going to harm us." "Twilight! That..Thing tore those Changelings apart like they were nothing!" Rainbow Dash yelled, as Twilight the Changeling firmly answered, "He's not a monster, Dash. He could've killed us, but he didn't."
Then, Rainbow Dash looked up Twilight, then looked at her friends, and realized that neither Twilight or her friends were injured, meaning that Fenrir wasn't an evil creature. "Yeah, but why didn't he hurt us as well, sugar cube." Applejack asked, confused about why Fenrir spared them from ending up the same way as Chrysalis's changeling bodyguards.
But unexpectedly, the wolf creature known as 'Fenrir', spoke up in a growling feral tone in his voice and said, "Hate. Bug. Ponies." Twilight & her friends all gasped in unison, as they now realized that Fenrir could talk. Sure, it wasn't exactly perfect speech grammar, but it was enough for anyone to understand what he was basically saying.
Anyway, as random as can be, Pinkie Pie looked at Fenrir and said, "Wait a sec, Mr. Wolfy here can talk?" Fenrir calmly nodded yes once, as Twilight understood what Fenrir was talking about as she asked, "Bug Ponies? Wait, do you mean the Changelings?" "You. Say. So." Fenrir answered, as Rarity spoke up & said, "Wait a minute, darling. Twilight herself is a Changeling, but why aren't you attacking her as well?"
Then, Fenrir slowly walked toward Twilight & her friends, as he only stood about 4 feet away from them, looked down at them, and answered, "She. Smells.....Different." But then, both the Mane Six and Fenrir heard the loud shrieking sound of a hundred Changelings charging toward them at an aggressive speed.
Fenrir turned around to see a hundred Changelings charging toward him, Twilight, and her friends from a distance. Fenrir knew there was only one thing he could do to them; he had to fight the Changelings directly head-on. "Ponies. Find. Hiding. Place. Now." Fenrir said, as he heard Twilight ask, "But what about you?"
"I. Fight. Changelings. Someone. Has. To." Fenrir sternly answered, but as he was about to charge off into the battle, Twilight stopped him as she asked, "Wait..Who are you?" "I. Am. Fenrir." Fenrir replied, as he then sprinted off toward the attacking Changelings on all fours like a wolf. He charged toward the charging Changelings at 100 miles per hour, as both sides closed the distance further & further.
But then, Fenrir rammed into the group of Changelings, as about a dozen of them got knocked off their hollow hooves,and that was when the real battle began. The Changelings quickly turned around and focused their attention on Fenrir, as he clawed at 5 Changelings that charged at him, rendering them unconscious. Then, 10 Changelings lunged at Fenrir, attempting to pin down Fenrir. Unfortunately for them, Fenrir sensed them, as he back-flipped over them, then he quickly attacked the 10 Changelings from behind, slashing his claws at them.
Quickly, Fenrir ripped a lamp pole from the ground & used it like a weapon, as he screamed, "RRROOOOAAAARRR!!!!!" This caused the remaining Changeling forces (73 Changelings left) to attack Fenrir in all directions, as Fenrir swung his makeshift weapon at them, knocking a lot of them down & delivering serious damage to them.
However, from the Mane Six's perspective, they couldn't tell who was winning due to how much dust was picked up around the battlefield, making it hard to see the fighting between Fenrir & the Changelings. But then, there was silence, there was no sign of life beyond the large dust cloud.
"Fenrir?" Twilight asked, as she and her friends became very worried about Fenrir's well-being, worried if he was still alive or....Well, you get the picture. But suddenly, a single Changeling flew out of the dust, as it charged toward Twilight and the Mane Six, hoping to bring harm to them.
However, a blunt metal object was thrown out of he dust cloud, as it hit the Changeling in the back of the head, knocking him out cold. Twilight & the others got a closer look and noticed that the blunt metal object was actually the lantern of the lamp post. Then, they looked forward at the disappearing dust cloud and saw that Fenrir was still in one piece.
He walked toward the Mane Six, as he looked down at them & said, "Missed. Me?" Rainbow Dash flew up to Fenrir's head height with her pegasus wings & said , "Fenrir, you were so AWESOME! Oh man, didn't you see those moves guys!?! He was all like 'ggrrrr' and 'Rooaarr' and 'hooyah'!!" As Rainbow Dash imitated the moves Fenrir used on the Changelings, Rarity noticed the pile of unconscious Changelings behind Fenrir, as she replied, "Yes, it would seem he put up quite a fight, Rainbow Dash."
But then, Twilight noticed Fenrir's fresh scars he received from fighting the Changelings, as Twilight became worried & asked, "Are those...scars?" Fenrir didn't exactly come out of that battle unscathed. Judging from Twilight's point of view, Fenrir had multiple fresh scars on his body. Fenrir had a nasty bite mark on his right bicep, caused by a Changeling that got lucky & bit him from behind his arm, but it wasn't very nasty, just a minor wound.
However, Fenrir also had several cuts on his body; 3 across his upper back, a large one at the abdomen, and a nasty cut that went from his left eyebrow, down across his left eye, and ends about half an inch away from his left eye. "Took. Minor. Hits. From. Them." Fenrir answered, as he responded to Twilight's concern.
But then, Fenrir fell unconscious but alive, as Twilight and the Mane Six yelled, "Fenrir!!" They then got up to him and check if he was still alive. Thankfully, he still had a heartbeat.
He woke up about an hour later, and bolted. Applejack responded to his actions with: "I guess that's the end of that!" They were all exhausted at the events that had transpired that day, so they went to sleep. (Twilight in her Changeling form of course)
The next morning:
Twilight woke up to the sunshine streaming in through her windows...wait, sunshine? She had covered all the windows the night before! she looked over to see a pegasus pony with a pink mane and yellow coat staring through the window angrily. She recognized this particular pony, Sunny Rays was on Rainbow's weather team. Rays turned away from the window, presumably saying something, to which multiple pegasi came up and looked in her window, and left to tell the town.
