Thunder is first up, like his entire life, he's risen with the sun. It's no surprise to him to see his marefriend still asleep at his side. He like the sound of that. Marefriend. It sung to him, like the birds sing to the sun thanking Celestia for bringing it up every morning. Just thinking about Melody Breeze, being his marefriend made blush. But today is when they talk to Celestia about a quest. Yet he didn't want to leave this bed, he didn't want to leave Melody's side.
Lights slowly faded into her vision, his face was I front of hers, she blushed as she realized what she was looking at. Who she was looking at, his almost emerald green eyes shone happiness, which caused her beautiful sky blue ones to glimmer in response.
"You know, that was the best time I've had In a while. And I believe, if I had anymore I'd just have to ask you for your hoof in marriage," Thunder poked at her. He winked at his marefriend and helped her up. After she was up, the white stallion quickly kissed the mare and immediately blushed.
"Well good morning, Thundering Bass," Melody said with the classiest fake accent she could manage.
"You know we have to talk with Celestia, and collect our quest, so lets go!"
"Fine lead the way, my lov-" it slipped out, she didn't mean to say it. She thought it, but never meant to say it. Her face becam flush. "I'm sorry I di-"
His mouth was already on hers, he kissed her deeply. Deeper enough to shut her up. He liked her a lot, but she talks too much sometimes. He finally releases the kiss to see a red faced mare with a twinkle her eye. Blushing himself he grabbed her hoof and started to walk for the door.
The door opened before the two, with an aura if magic around the knob. It was Celestia! She came to debrief the two personally. "My little ponies, we have just been informed of a changeling invasion. Chaos has spread throughout the streets, there are six other mares that are helping, but they are on a separate mission, I ask of you two to help them clear the streets of changelings." Celestia had purpose in her voice, it was stressed but strong all the same. "Go my little ponies, save Canterlot, and the rest of Equestria.
Thunder an Melody did as ordered, and went to the streets, they spotted many changelings. The changelings dropped in as if they were ODST's from Halo. Thunder and Melody exchanged looks and without a single word they jumped into action. Thunder grasped to of the pony-sized bugs and smashed their heads together with such force that the skulls caved in. Melody using her swiftness as an advantage tricked two into flying smack into each other, knocking the other out.
Thunder's strength rivaled that of the red earth stallion known as Big McIntosh. Using that to his advantage he through a changeling into the wall of a coffee shop, leaving neon green blood spattered around the injured bug. Another changeling jumped at him, aiming it's horn at the Pegasus. Quickly the stallion jumped out of it's way, only to have his face meet a black hoof. Staggering he regained his balance and jumped at the bug and pounded it's face in with his hooves. Now his hooves were covered in the green blood of his foes.
Melody soaring through the sky using her quick thinking and just as fast responses to weave in and out of the cloud of changelings kicking them as she passed. The cloud thins out as she flies through. She takes a hoof to the face stunning her causing her to plummet to the ground, she didn't know what happened but she knew she was in trouble. Before she hit the ground she blacked out.
Thunder saw his marefriend falling to the dirt, and knew if he wasn't there to catch her, she would die. His wings shot up, knocking a few changeling off his back and rocketed towards her, his speed almost matched the prismatic maned Pegasus known as Rainbow Dash. His hooves stretched out in front of him he shot towards the place the mare would land. Just as the stallion reaches the spot, a beautiful, unconscious, white mare lands in his arms. He slowed and gently put her down in a corner.
The two started to get surrounded, so Thunder pulled out his last resort. A bass cannon from his own pocket dimension. He'd received it as a gift from Luna, when he helped the D.J. at one of her parties. It design based loosely off of the one used by Vinyl Scratch, except this one was carried, as if it was a death machine. Being 3 feet long and 1 foot tall, it has one large subwoofer strong enough to destroy a building in a matter of seconds, with 4 more smaller subwoofers in front of it which opened up to reveal the main.
This weapon now activated, the bugs just ceased to exist. It was strong enough to turn every cheese-legged pony to dust at the cost of a shop or two. The sound of the Cannon firing woke the mare, but she was still too weak to get up. She saw him, standing on his hind legs, using this extremely lethal weapon to protect her, his marefriend, he hadn't known that yet. For that's what she thought. She drifted back asleep and smiled as the sound of the deadly ceased and went back to where it came from.
The stallion picked up the mare, and saw that she was still out. But she had a smile on her face, so he knew she was alright. Thunder gently carried her back to the castle and laid her down on the bed. He said one thing.
"I love you."
