Chapter 10: The Dark Night

Previous Chapter Next Chapter


"Mother!! Father!! I'm home!!"

"We're in the kitchen, honey!"

A young Rainbow Dash trotted through the grand house. Her hooves booming through the old house. It wasn't a cloud house. Like where normal pegasi live in. It was a large, old mansion. On the ground, instead of the sky. Shielded by dark, gloomy trees.

"Hey. What's up?" Rainbow asked nonchalantly, as she trotted into the kitchen.

"Rainbow. How was you test today, sweetie?" Sunset Breeze asked. Her voice softer and silkier than silk itself. She was a slim white Pegasus, with red, orange and yellow hair. It was smooth and soft. Her eyes were dark blue, and her lashes long and curly. Her Cutiemark was a sunset with a cloud. Her talent, swift and sly moves. Moving almost like a feather.

"It...err....went...fantastic!" Rainbow lied through her teeth.

The blue Pegasus stallion gave a disapproving to his daughter. His red eyes glaring at her. He had green, blue and purple hair. He had Rainbow's same style but it was much sharper. He had a black soul patch beard. His Cutiemark was a tri-coloured lightning bolt with green, blue and purple, and a black flame behind it. His talent was flying. And fast.

"Rainbow. Don't lie to your mother." Lightning Blitz said in a stern yet friendly voice.

"I...fa...." She mumbled.

"What?"

"I...fai....."

"Sorry, I can't hear you Fluttershy."

"I FAILED!! Okay?! I failed!!" She yelled out. Tears brimming her rose eyes.

"Well, that's no surprise. Rainbow Dash fails another test." Another stallion walked in. He was the same height as Rainbow, maybe slightly taller. His coat was a dark cyan blue. He had rose eyes. Like Dash's. And his mane was red, yellow and blue. Yet again, he had the same style as Rainbow's. His Cutiemark was a red lightning bolt. With white flames behind it. His talent was rough flying. Like drag racing. His wings were hard and strong.

"Oh shut up Blitzen!!" Rainbow snapped.

"Oh please don't argue. I don't want my little girl and my big boy fighting." Breeze begged.

"Okay mother." The two siblings said in sync.

"Why did you fail, Rainbow?"

"I don't know." She muttered as she sat down.

"Maybe because you were born with a roasted walnut instead of a brain!" Blitzen sneered.

"Don't be rude to your sister. You know she has a higher IQ than you."

"Then why doesn't she use it?!" The young stallion demanded.

"Because I rather not be beaten to a pulp!!" Rainbow yelled back. "I was threatened by some of the bullies saying they would hurt me and Fluttershy if I passed another test."

"Sweetheart." Breeze fluttered over to her daughter. "Dashie, darling. You don't have to fear them. They should really fear you. After all you are an assassin."

"And bloody good one." Lightning Blitz added. Blitzen scowled his father.

"They are probably jealous. Jealous that you are better than them."

Lightning Blitz walked over with an object in his wings.

"Here. I was saving it for your birthday, but you could do with a smile." He grinned as he handed the item to his youngest. Rainbow's eyes widened at it. It was a silver dagger. With swirls and spirals around the handle. And engraved on it was two names. Lightning Blitz and Sunset Breeze.

"But-but this is yours and mother's dagger. The dagger you made to propose to mother. Why are you giving it to me?" Rainbow was confused.

"Because, we both know that you have great potential. To be an assassin and much more. We know that one day, that when you lead The Creed, you will lead it and Equestria to their greatest victory. And we know that because we believe in you." Sunset Breeze hugged Rainbow.

"You are a brilliant young mare." Lightning joined into the hug. But just behind them, watching the happy scene unfold in front of him, was Blitzen John Dashery. Rage built up inside of him as his parents cared for his puny little sister than they did for him. Yeah, she was fast and agile. But he was much stronger. And his body could take much more. If Rainbow went flying through a storm, she would fall out due to attack of winds, hail and snow. However, he would fly through a storm without a scratch.

Suddenly, a pony in a white cloak came bursting in.

"Sir!! They have come!! They are killing Everypony!!!" He panted.

Lightning Blitz rose from his position.

"Where are they located now?"

"Near the house, sir. I advise you to take your family away before the-" He was unable to finish his sentence as an arrow was shot through his neck. He fell to ground. Blood gushing out of his neck and mouth. His pristine white cloak, now deep scarlet. Stallions began to barge into the house. Lightning Blitz grabbed his sword and held it up, and Sunset Breeze picked up her bow and arrow.

"What do you want?" He demanded.

"We want The Creed to fall. And fall it shall." One of the stallions yelled as his fellow ponies raged through the house. Two ponies overpowered Lightning, while one pushed his wife. Another stallion went for Blitzen, but he was stabbed by Rainbow Dash. The two siblings began to push and fight the ponies. But Rainbow was pushed to the back of the room, and knocked unconscious. Blitzen too, was knocked unconscious as somepony threw a chair over his head.

"Don't kill this one. He will be a great help to us. Take him back." Two ponies dragged his limp body across the floor and outside.

"And you two...kill them."

Instantly, the stallions holding down the couple, stabbed them in their stomachs. Blood coating their bodies. At this point, Rainbow woke up. A cracking headache splitting her head.

"MOTHER!! FATHER!!" She wailed.

The ponies turned around to the crying young mare.

"Wait! Don't kill them yet. I have a better idea." The lead pony held a evil smirk as he walked closer to Rainbow.

"Rainbow. Run. Fly." Her mother choked before the stallion punched her in the face.

"Oh she won't run. Or fly. If she knew what was good for her." He stood right in front of her. His huge frame towering down on her petit athletic body. "So, Rainbow. If you even try to fly away, I will hack your wings off and kill your parents. You understand?"

Rainbow's mind rushed. Her assassin instincts were to attack or flee. But with no way out, she had to give up.

"W-What will you do?"

He smiled. "You see, I am a very lonely stallion. With no one to please me. And you are one sexy mare. I don't think I know anypony else with a tight rump than yours."

"Sick bastard! You stay away from my daughter!" Lightning yelled.

The lead pony waved his hoof. Signalling the other pony. The stallion holding Lightning Blitz stabbed him in the chest. But not in the heart. He wanted him to see his daughter in pain before taking his last breath.

"Father!! Please!! Don't hurt them!!" She attempted to run over, but the evil stallion grabbed her tail.

"Stay put, you little bitch!"

Rainbow's assassin side came out and she kicked him in the face. He fell back. Red liquid trickling from his snout.

"DAMNIT!!"

The prismatic Pegasus fluttered over to her fallen parents. The lead pony leapt up again. And push the mare to the floor near her mother.

"I'M GOING TO FUCK YOU!! AND HARD!!" He held her down. He used his magic to pluck a few of her feathers out. She moaned in pain. Feeling warm liquid coat her wings. He then grabbed the dagger in the far corner. It now glowing green. It was the dagger that Lightning had just given to Rainbow.

"No...please...she's still young....she's only fifteen." Breeze pleaded as she coughed up blood.

"I don't care. She's a worthless assassin. She deserves to die." He smirked as he lowered himself onto the slender mare.

~~~~~~

"Nice. Nice. Go on, boys. Now you've finished, you can finish them two off. Oh don't worry, I put a protection spell on you...Dashie. You won't get pregnant." He shooed stallions. The smirking guards that had now violated the young mare, slit the two elder ponies' throats. Rainbow watched through her blurry eyes. Fresh tears fell on the dark floorboards. Then the lead stallion grabbed Rainbow's dagger and stabbed her in the chest. She gasped as she felt the cold metal penetrate her skin. She heard her father and mother whisper, "no...."

"There. Come on then. These lot will die in the minute. The Creed has finished. It's now dead." He walked out of the house followed by the others. Leaving the three dying ponies alone. Rainbow dragged herself, clutching her chest, closer to her parents.

"Mother...father..." She croaked.

"....rainbow....my....girl....." Lightning whispered. Trying to savour his breath.

"I....love...you..."

"...w-we...love...you...too...our little...girl...."

"our....special....girl..."

"I don't want to die. I don't want you to die." She cried.

"Dashie....protect....the ones...who...you care....for...." Sunset Breeze said before closing her eyes.

"We...believe...in you....sweetheart...."

"I love you father. I love you mother." She watched as their chests fell...and never rose again. She struggled to get herself up. Her legs shaking madly. Still holding her chest. The blood leaking onto the floor and drenching her hoof. She lifted her dagger and held it close. Tears flowing freely like a waterfall.

"I promise. I promise on my life. I will lead The Creed. I lead them well. I will do it for. And I will get revenge on them." She limped over to a cupboard, and put on a black cloak.The very black cloak her mother wore. She placed the dagger in it's holder, and put the other weapons in her cloak. She wrapped some bandages around her chest. She pulled the hood over her head. Rainbow-before leaving-looked back at her parents.

"Ego promitto. Promitto in animam meam protegam Equestria. Et dedĂșcet Symbolum. Te amo. Non deficiam." She whispered before fluttering off.

Author's Notes:

My friend begged me for her to write most of this chapter. She just kept on bugging me on how to write it. She ended up having bruised shins.

Ego promitto. Promitto in animam meam protegam Equestria. Et dedĂșcet Symbolum.-I promise. I promise on my life, I will protect Equestria. And lead The Creed.
Te amo. Non deficiam-I love you. I will not fail.-Google translate...again...
