After using the bathroom, Circuit Breaker came downstairs and went back to playing Killer Instinct. "What happened?" Rainbow Dash asked him, "You look like you've seen a ghost." "Yeah... Crim and Sunset were... making out..." he said hesitantly. "Lucky guy," replied Rainbow. (The next day, 1:00 PM) "Well, it's been fun," said Circuit Breaker as he and Rainbow Dash got in his car, ready to return home, "See ya at school, Sunset!"
"See ya guys, take care!" Sunset said cheerfully as Circuit and Rainbow took off. Crimson was the last to leave. As he got in his car, Sunset gave him another kiss on the lips as she blushed again. "Thank you for coming....hope you can come again sometime." Sunset said, embarrassed about what happened yesterday. Crimson decided to break her doubts and returned another kiss on the cheek, surprising her. "Hope I can, see you back at school. See ya then, Sunset!" Crimson smiled as he reversed out the driveway and took off, Sunset waving goodbye. The moment he was out of sight, she went inside and collapsed onto the sofa, still in amazement about what a night she had with her friends.
(Monday, school) Circuit Breaker went to his locker to find it wide open, his textbooks strewn about all over the floor. On the door was a sticky note. It read: Payback's a b!tch, as am I. Suddenly, everything went black. (Circuit Breaker's homeroom) "Why hasn't Circuit shown up yet?" asked Rainbow Dash. "He would never be late to class on purpose." When Ms. Cheerilee called Circuit's name for roll, there was no response.
Sunset was concerned, Crimson hasn't arrived this morning either. She began to fear for the worst, she nudged Rainbow to get her attention. "Crimson isn't here either, something must have happened to the two of them." Sunset said, her facials showing intense signs of concern. Crimson was never late, so something must have happened. She wanted her to follow her lead. "Ms.Cheerilee, could i go for a bathroom break?" Sunset asked, although her true intentions was to find out what the hell was happening between the two boys.
Circuit Breaker woke up to find himself strapped to a chair in a dark room. He tried to speak, but all that came out was a muffled sound. He then realized he was gagged. He tried to move his arms, but they were tied so tightly to the chair that they might as well be part of it. His legs were also bound tightly to the chair. Who could possibly want to kidnap me like this? Circuit thought to himself. As if in answer to his own question, a voice spoke. A familiar female voice. "Well, well, well," she said, "Looks like I've got the egghead and the Aussie right where I want them." A light switch turned on to reveal... Spitfire, you ***hole! Circuit Breaker thought. I should have known. "You two little twits are gonna be my little toys for as long as you live!" she said. Circuit Breaker looked around the room. It appeared to be a basement. "Although," said Spitfire, now giving Circuit Breaker bedroom eyes, "You know you can't resist me, anyway." Why the hell would I-- Circuit Breaker could not finish this train of thought, for at that moment, Spitfire took her tanktop off to reveal a bikini top covering a sizeable bust, a curvy figure, and a muscular physique. Circuit Breaker was blown away, almost literally hypnotized by Spitfire's body. "Do you have anything to say, Breaker?" she asked as she removed Circuit's gag. "Spitfire..." he choked "I... I live to serve you..." "I knew you would say that," Spitfire said smugly.
Crimson was unconscious. Unlike Circuit, Crimson managed to put up a fight against three of Spitfires goons, three guys who assaulted him with batons. He was just about to walk into the school until he was knocked on the back of the head and beaten brutally. Although Crimson lost in the end, he managed to really hurt one of them before he was knocked unconscious. After that, he was dragged into a car and driven away somewhere. He was out cold, although his injuries told a story on their own. It was such as shame, unbeknownst to Spitfires goons, that they were awful at destroying the evidence.
Rainbow Dash went with Sunset to her locker, where she found a sticky note. The handwriting looked familiar to her. It read: If you want to see your boyfriend again, you will have to fight me. Catch me if you can, Rainbow Crash! "Spitfire..." Rainbow Dash said, "How did I not figure this out sooner?!? When I find out where she lives, I'LL RIP HER APART!!!"
Sunset couldn't help but feel sorry for Dash, until the sudden realisation that Crimson was likely taken out as well. Her eyes widened in utter horror as she quickly ran to her locker, some distance down the same hallway as Dash. When she opened it frantically, a letter fell out and landed at her feet. Along with a photo of Crimson, looking like he was almost on the verge of death, leaning up against a wall. Sunset picked up and read. He got the worst of it. Inspiring hope to somebody who shouldn't feel hope at all. Pathetic. Let's just hope he's breathing before you arrive, especially with what I'm going to do with him. Come get me, She-Demon! Sunset almost collapsed to the ground in shock, she couldn't hold back the tears. Although, she was also holding back pure unadulterated rage. "Crimson...he's hurt, bad." Shimmer said before looking at Dash. "You know what I'm thinking?"
"If you're thinking that we should find Crim and Circuit and teach that b!tch Spitfire a lesson, then yes," said Rainbow Dash, feeling nothing but pure, seething fury towards Spitfire. The two ran out towards Circuit Breaker's parking space and got in his car. "Thankfully, he always leaves his keys in the ignition," said Rainbow Dash as she turned the key. Before they drove off, however, Rainbow Dash pulled out her iPhone and searched for Spitfire's Facebook page, getting her address in the process. "83 Zacherle Boulevard. That's where she lives," said Rainbow Dash under her breath. She took a deep breath, and shouted, "WE'RE COMING, CRIM AND CIRCUIT! DON'T WORRY!!" And she pulled out of the parking space and drove off. Meanwhile, in Spitfire's basement, Circuit Breaker thought to himself about his predicament. I mean, sure, she's built like a brick house, he thought, but that doesn't change the fact that she tortured me since the fourth grade. I gotta get outta here! But how? Then he remembered, he wasn't alone. Looking to his left, he saw another chair, with Crimson in it. Circuit scooted his chair over to Crimson's and whispered in his ear, "Dude, wake up!"
Crimson woke up slowly, but not before a masked goon woke him up completely and punched him hard in the stomach, causing him to vomit blood onto the ground. He couldn't even breathe, his eyes were watery and his whole body was numb. Another goon came over and punched him in the face again until a familiar voice came out. "Both of you, stop it! We need him alive" Spitfire ordered the goons, who stepped back. Spitfire came over, still topless, and went over to Crimson and stroked the side of his face. "Shush...don't cry, It will be over soon." Spitfire said coldly. "But until then, you belong to me."
"LIKE HELL HE DOES!!" shouted a familiar voice. "Dashie! Sunset!" said Circuit Breaker, "How did you find us?" "Google knows everything, dude!" Rainbow Dash responded. "And as for you," she added, as she turned to face Spitfire, "I'LL RIP THAT HEAD OFF YOUR PATHETIC LITTLE NECK!!" "Oh, really?" Spitfire snarked, "I'd like to see you try." Rainbow Dash lunged at Spitfire's throat, grabbing her in a choke hold. "GIVE ME A REASON... GIVE ME ONE GOOD REASON FOR ME TO LET YOU LIVE, YOU HEARTLESS MONSTER!!" "G... guards," was all Spitfire could choke out before she fell unconscious. At once, two of Spitfire's goons grabbed Rainbow Dash and pulled her away from Spitfire, but Rainbow Dash fought them off, leaving them on the floor. She then took a baton from one of the goons and began to brutally beat Spitfire with it, a look of unbridled hatred on her face. "No! Rainbow! Stop! STOP! Have mercy on her!" pleaded Circuit Breaker, but his pleas went unheeded. Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Tapatalk 2
Sunset ran over and dragged Rainbow away from the brutal beatdown that she was giving to Spitfire. Sunset did manage to calm her down, trying to calm the pure rage that was occurring within Dash. Meanwhile, Crimson was barely conscious for the whole ordeal. He was a mess, caked in blood and all sorts of horrible injuries that his captors did to him. When he could recognise the two girls, he weakly smiled. "Sunset...Rainbow..." Crimson only said before he soon fell unconscious again, although the implications were worse. His body had just given up on him, and his heart stopped beating for a moment. Just a moment. It was almost like he was going to die.
"Oh, my God! Crimson!" Sunset Shimmer said as she ran over to him. She tried to feel for a pulse on Crimson, but it was weak. She instantly dialed 911. Meanwhile, Rainbow Dash began to untie Circuit Breaker. Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Tapatalk 2
After calling 911, Sunset quickly untied the rope restricting his arms before following up to his chest. Crimsons body fell down from his chair and fell onto Sunset, completely unresponsive. Sunset began to cry as she his head on her lap, holding him gently as she broke down in full view of everybody in the room. "Crimson.....no. Don't.....please dont die on me!" Sunset said before crying harder, everything about his condition causing her to break down. Meanwhile, Spitfires goons fled the basement and made a run for it.
The ambulance arrived on the scene, and paramedics rushed down into the basement. Crimson was pulled out on a stretcher. Meanwhile, Spitfire came to. "Well, look," Circuit Breaker snarked at her, "You almost killed someone today. Your parents must be so proud." Upon hearing the word "parents", Spitfire broke down into tears. "YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE!!" she shouted in between sobs, "MY MOM LEFT ME WHEN I WAS FOUR, AND MY DAD BEAT AND MOLESTED ME SINCE I WAS SEVEN!! I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER MY LIFE AT ALL!!" "You think you have it bad?" said Circuit, "Sunset's boyfriend is almost dead, and it's all your fau--" "I'M SORRY!!" Spitfire sobbed loudly. These words were words Circuit never thought he would hear Spitfire say, yet here she was. Circuit was astonished. Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Tapatalk 2
Upon watching Spitfire cry to herself, other unpleasant memories were surfaced. Her own memories. She went over to Spitfire and just shook her head in disapproval. "I lost both of my entire family when i was thirteen. They died in a car crash. I grew up without them, and i lived with my grandmother until her passing only a couple of years later. You think you had it rough? I lived on the streets! I was hungry, cold and on the brink of death for six months. It wasnt until my uncle overseas found out what happned to me that i was saved." Sunset said sadly before looking Spitfire directly in the eyes. " I was the only survivor in that car crash. I lost absolutely everything. Just because you had a traumatic childhood doesnt mean that you can hide yourself behind a pillar of strength. I was like that for years and well...look how i turned out"
"I thought..." sobbed Spitfire, "I thought that there wasn't another way..." "Spitfire," said Circuit Breaker, "There's always another way." He gave her a pat on the head, "Don't worry, it'll only get better from here on out." "Thank you, Circuit..." she said, smiling. It wasn't her usual harsh smile, either, but rather a genuine smile of pure joy. Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Tapatalk 2
Sunset felt relieved that everything was sorted, although the images she seen in her head about Crimson were unpleasant. He was dying in her arms, a sight she had all seen before. It was just like the accident that claimed the life of her family, the utter horror and brutality of it all. She lost her mother and father, as she was an only child. She survived the crash completely unharmed, although she was in shock afterwards after knowing what happened. It brought back terrible memories, memories that unfortunately had an uncanny resemblance to what happened today. She lost everyone she had loved, she didn't want the same to happen to the one person she loved more then anything in the world. She was a strong girl. She had lived through some tragic events in her life, her emotional connection with reality help maturing her into a beautiful young woman. The emotional connection she had was strong, but the connection she had with Crimson was more then special. If she lost him.... While Circuit and Rainbow were busy dealing with Spitfire, she quietly left the room and went up the stairs that connected the basement to the rest of the house. She was alone, and she looked at the photos of Spitfire and her parents before her life changed. They all seemed so....happy. Something must had happened at some point, something terrible. She went on her way to the front door, and went outside on the front porch to find an ambience on the street, the paramedics from before, and Crimsons body on the stretcher, completely lifeless and appearing like he was a war survivor. His body was full of cuts, bruises and all sorts of things. His hair appeared windswept, and he was already covered in bandages. He had lost a lot of blood, from the initial attack and kidnapping when he arrived at school to the brutal torture and beatdowns he endured before Circuit woke up, and before Sunset and Rainbow came to the rescue. Sunset was completely speechless, quickly running over to see the body of the man, holding back the tears and trying to keep strong. Although, one or two did flow down her face as the Australian appeared utterly defeated, all the pain had vanished on his face. She then backed away slowly to allow the paramedics to do their job, as they lifted his body into the ambulance and sped away to the Hospital. Sunset watched as the ambulance vanished into the distance before she went back towards the house. She made it back to the porch again before she stopped dead in her tracks, the emotions had finally won. She collapsed onto her knees as she leaned up against the wall, finally breaking down into tears nearby the front door. She wanted to be strong, but she just couldn't do it.
(The next day) Circuit Breaker's phone rang as he got ready for school in the morning. He checked the caller ID. It was the hospital. "Hello," he answered, prepared for the worst. "Yes, this is Canterlot Hospital. Is this Circuit Breaker?" "Yes, it is." "I think you'll be interested to know that your friend is making a full recovery. He'll be back in school by Thursday." "Thank God," Circuit Breaker sighed, relieved. (At school) "Hey, Sunset, I got a call from the hospital this morning," Circuit Breaker told her. "They said Crimson will be out of the hospital on Thursday." Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Tapatalk 2
Sunset soon felt a huge load of emotional weight get taken off her shoulders, sighing deeply after hearing the news. "That's fantastic. I've been wanting to visit him in hospital, but I've been waiting to see what happened first"
