Sonic Boom - Gryphon Confrontation

>Last time, on Sonic Boom Z…
>Typhoon Wind saw Sonic Boom and Flash Kick meet in a kiss, and it sent him over the edge!
>He flew off, unknowingly into gryphon territory, only to meet with an old foe from his past…

>”Ingirun!” Typhoon growls angrily, standing his ground, not taking his eyes off her and flexing his wings intimidatingly
>The female gryphon laughs, walking back and forth in front of the pegasus
>”You know, I never did get you back for ruining my plan,” Ingirun smirks slyly at him
>”That so? What plan are you talking about?” Typhoon grins back, though still holding his ground
>The gryphon walks up to him. “I don’t think you’re ready to know that yet,” she says, snapping her claws
>Three more gryphons come out of hiding
>”Besides, you should worry more about what’s going to happen to you, instead,” she gives him a wry smirk, before snapping her claws once again
>The three gryphons charge him
>Screen fades to black
>Sonic Boom has since landed back at the party; you instantly pulled her into a worried hug
“What happened? Where’s Flash Kick? Where’s Typhoon?”
>”Flash Kick left to Cloudsdale,” she says. “Have you seen Typhoon lately, Thunder?” Sonic Boom asks, looking up at her larger stallion friend
>He shakes his head. “I’ve not seen him since he went off to look for you,” he says
>”Yeah, about that…” she mutters, looking away a bit guilty
>”He see something he didn’t want to?”
>”Yeah…”
>”Gah, that’s not good,” Thunder sighs, “He doesn’t react well to this sort of thing, and if it was what I suspect it is… Oh man, this definitely isn’t good…”

>Back to Typhoon
>He’s held down by the three gryphons from earlier, trapped and helpless to anything that the gryphons could do
>”Damn it…” he curses under his breath, before his legs are pulled further back, causing him to roar in pain
>”Too bad, you were such a strong flier,” Ingirun smirks, walking up to the trapped pegasus
>Typhoon scowls and spits in the gryphon’s face. “That’s for what you did to Sonic Boom all those years ago.”
>She wipes it away, before scowling back. “Guess you don’t care what happens to your other wing then, hm?” She looks to another gryphon and nods
>The gryphon reaches to the base of Typhoon’s remaining real wing and squeezes hard, bending it into an awkward position by the joint
>He lets out a wail of pain
>The wing finally snaps, and hangs limp behind him
>”I told you, Typhoon; you’re going to die. Here. And nobody is going to remember you for it,” Ingirun smirks, gripping his muzzle and turning it up to look her in the eyes. “And I’m going to make sure you stay awake long enough to feel each and every bone in your body snap in two. Your death will be excruciating. You will suffer,” she scowls, sinking her claws into his muzzle, before drawing them slowly down his face, his screams of pain muffled by her holding his mouth shut
>Sonic Boom and the other three remaining pegasi have headed off in the direction that she saw Typhoon go
>”What about Flash Kick?” Comet asks, turning to look at her
>”No time; Typhoon’s not safe if he’s gone very far outside of Ponyville,” Sonic Boom says, focusing all of her energy into going faster
>”I have to agree with that; Typhoon’s a fast flyer, but if he’s run into trouble, he’s not much of a fighter,” Thunder says, making sure to keep his speed matching the blue pegasus

>”Gah, Flash Kick, why did you have to go and do that?!” Flash Kick grumbles, sitting on a cloud just outside Cloudsdale. “You just blew your friendships with two of your best friends,” he sighs, rolling over onto his stomach
>”I can’t let it end like that,” he says, standing up and turning towards the party. “I’m going to make things right, no matter what.”
>He takes off towards the remaining party

>You’re worried; Sonic Boom and the others have been taking a long time
>A rush of wind blows past you as Flash Kick lands in front of you
>”Where’s Sonic Boom? I need to talk with her,” he says
“There’s no time for that, Typhoon may be in trouble!”
>Flash Kick’s eyes widen. “He hasn’t come back?!”
>You shake your head
“Sonic Boom and the others went off in the direction that she saw him fly off.”
>”They’ll need our help. Hop on,” he says, leaning down
>You carefully get onto his back, he’s smaller than Rainbow Dash or Sonic Boom, but he’s large enough to where he can hold you sufficiently
>”Alright, we’re taking off,” he says once you’re safely on his back
>He flaps his wings a few times, lifting off slowly as he gets used to your weight, before shooting off into the night sky in the same direction Sonic Boom and the rest went
>Typhoon isn’t doing too well
>There have since been large claw marks left across his entire body
>His mechanical wing has been ripped off and smashed into unrecoverable pieces
>Yet he still manages to keep himself conscious despite the pain
>”Stay awake all you like, all it does is give me more pleasure in hearing your shrieks of pain as I rip away every last physical part of your body,” Ingirun smirks, flexing her claw, tasting the blood on one of them. “But even you have a limit…”
>Typhoon is panting heavily, his eyes lazily looking up at the gryphon. “Give me your best shot, featherbrain,” he grins
>She scowls, before slashing her claws across his face once again, drawing blood and just barely missing his eye. “I always hated your guts, you foal,” she says
>”Well then I suggest you not hurt me too bad, or you’ll be seeing them before too long,” Typhoon spits blood at the gryphon
>She wipes away the blood off her face, before cocking her head to the side at one of the gryphons
>The gryphon nods and throws the pegasus to the ground
>”See, this is what I can’t stand about you, Typhoon; even when you’re about to die, you still prove to be a thorn in my side!” she grunts, giving him a swift kick to the gut, causing him to cough up more blood. “You’d think you would have learned for once, being the huge egghead you are,” she scowls down at him
>”Heh… guess there’s some things I’m just… too stubborn to learn…” he pants out, still grinning at her
>The terrain under the four pegasi has slowly changed from fields to large, rocky mountains
>They’ve entered gryphon territory now
>”If Typhoon’s somewhere out here, we’ll need to find him fast,” Thunder says, “Before any gryphons see us.”
>Ivy and Comet nod at him, Sonic Boom simply continues dashing through the sky
>”Wait, what’s that?!” Ivy exclaims, pointing her hoof down at a nearby mountain
>The other three look down, and see a group of gryphons standing around a…
>Pegasus?
>”Oh no, Typhoon!” Sonic Boom exclaims, quickly swerving down into a nosedive towards the group
>One of the gryphons looks up, barely able to react before being knocked to the ground by Sonic Boom
>The gryphon is out cold
>”What the-” another one squawks out before being slammed in the side by Thunder
>Sonic Boom comes face to face with the leader gryphon
>”You’re going to pay for what you did to him!” she growls angrily
>The gryphon smirks. “Sonic Boom, you always were an idiot, but this takes the cake,” she says
>Sonic Boom’s eyes widen in shock. “…Ingirun?!”
>”The one and only,” the gryphon laughs, before turning to the broken, battered body of Typhoon. “Typhoon made the same mistake as you’re about to make, and look what happened to him.”
 >Sonic Boom gets her first good look at his body; she’s horrified by the sight
>His remaining wing is obviously broken, and his mechanical wing’s parts are strewn across the terrain. There are multiple large cuts across his body and face, and blood. Blood everywhere
>Sonic Boom turns to look at Ingirun, hate seething from her eyes. “You’re not getting away with this,” she scowls
>Ingirun curls her mouth into a toothy grin, walking up to the mare. “Oh yeah? Well what looks like shit, feels like shit, and probably ain’t gonna be waking up in the morning?”
>Sonic Boom grins back. “You, obviously,” she says, quickly spinning around and bucking the gryphon in the beak, sending her staggering back
>Ingirun loses her balance, falling backwards, but quickly rolls around back onto all fours. “You’re gonna pay for that,” she scowls, lunging for the mare
>Comet’s eyes widen and he quickly rushes to Sonic Boom’s aid, placing himself between her and Ingirun, bringing up his hooves to hold her back
>Ingirun scoffs, before flying up into the air and diving back down, directly at Sonic Boom
>She braces herself for impact
>Ingirun grins, nodding as the last remaining gryphon lunges for Comet, knocking him to the ground and sinking claws into his body, raking him along the sides
>He lets out a yelp of pain that distracts Sonic Boom for a split second, giving Ingirun the chance to lash her own claws down Sonic Boom’s front left leg, before jumping away to Typhoon’s body, placing her claw at his neck
>”Alright, that’s it, nop0ny or gryphon move!” she roars out, causing all of them to stop moving and look to her
>”Sonic Boom, call off your friends, now, or Typhoon dies right before your eyes in the most violent way I can,” she says, scowling at the pegasus, gripping Typhoon’s neck in her claws, causing him to gag a bit
>Sonic Boom’s eyes widen, and she hesitates, stepping back one step
>”OH HELL THE FUCK NO!” a voice calls from above
>Ingirun’s eyes widen, and she looks up. “What the…!”
>POW RIGHT IN THE KISSER!!
>Flash Kick swerves by, giving you the opportunity to drop your leg down in the direct path of Ingirun’s face, placing a firm kick into her jaw and sending her to the ground
>Sonic Boom gasps as the two of you land. “Dad?!” she exclaims, her eyes wide with surprise
>You nod
“Stay back, Sonic Boom, Dad’s gonna take care of something he should have done a long time ago.”
>You turn to look at Typhoon; he’s barely conscious, but he gives you a grin and holds up a hoof despite the pain
>You nod, gently bumping his hoof before slowly setting it back down onto the ground
“I’m not letting her get away with what she did.”
>”So the alien finally shows up to protect its disgusting kid,” Ingirun scowls, getting to her feet, her fur stained a light red from the kick. “Alright, you die first. Perfect, she gets to watch her best friend and her father die before her eyes,” she grins. “How does that make you feel?”
>You’ve heard enough; you take off running at her
>She rears up onto her hind legs, ready for your attack
>Suddenly BAM!
>Flash Kick moves from the side, knocking her off-balance as she readied herself for your attack
>She falls over, and you place her head and talons in a leg lock before she has a chance to react
>”Nnn-Gah! Get the hell off’a me!” she growls angrily, swinging her talons around to try to break free
>You proceed to start slamming the bottoms of your fists into the back of her head as hard and as fast as you can
>Eventually she’s unable to fight back and collapses under you
>You squeeze her neck harder with your legs, continuing to bash her skull with your fists as blood starts dripping out of it
>You grip her by the beak and twist her head, hearing a quick snap before her body falls limp
>You sit there for a moment, panting heavily with your arms and pants covered in gryphon blood and feathers, before standing up
>You stumble a bit; the fight and managing to hold her definitely took its toll on you
>The six pegasi are all staring at you as you walk over to Sonic Boom, before falling to your knees in front of her
“S…Sonic Boom, I…”
>You pause for a moment
“I’m sorry you had to see your father like that. It’s not something a daughter should see her father doing.”
>She shakes her head and pulls you into a tight hug, and you can feel the heat of her tears as she nuzzles her face into your neck. “No, Dad… Don’t be sorry,” she says. “You only did what you thought was right, and there wasn’t much time to think twice on it…”
>Your eyes widen in surprise, before your own tears start falling and you embrace her back, not even caring that the blood is caked on your hands
>You hear a faint movement behind you
>You quickly wipe your hands off, and turn to face it
>The gryphon is still fucking alive
>Dazed and disoriented, but still fucking alive
>”You think… that’s gonna… stop me?” Ingirun scowls, slowly getting up on all fours, wobbling a bit. “You’re just… a dirty alien… a freak of nature… a NOBODY!” she roars, charging forward at you and Sonic Boom
>Suddenly, she’s slammed by a dark furred mass, knocking her to the ground
>Fucking Thunder Storm coming to your rescue
>”Now’s not the time, you two, we still have two more gryphons to worry about,” he says, turning to look at you. “I’ll take Ingirun from here. You take the other one,” he says, walking over to the surprised and dazed gryphon
>You nod, standing up and turning to look at the other gryphon
>She’s busy dealing with Streaking Comet and Flash Kick right now
>Perfect chance
>You charge forward, knocking the gryphon down from behind, before performing a similar technique to the one you tried on Ingirun, however this one isn’t going to let you pin her so easily
>She rears up and slams her back to the ground, pinning you under her
>You gasp for air but this only causes her to crush you even further
>”Dad!” Sonic Boom exclaims, latching herself onto the gryphon’s head, swinging her hooves every which way at the gryphon
>One swing manages to hit the gryphon in the eye, causing her to roll over in pain and give you the opportunity to get out from under her
>You quickly go to work of giving the gryphon a swift kick in the knee, causing her to collapse to one side whenever she tries to stand
>Sonic Boom takes this chance to fly up off of the gryphon, taunting and shaking her flank at the gryphon
>She seethes with anger before launching herself up off of the ground
>You grin and grab her by the tail, yanking hard
>The gryphon lets out a painful and surprise yelp-squawk combination before you bring her down to the ground, kicking her in the hind leg and sending her falling flat on her face
>You turn to look at Thunder
>Oh dear god that’s brutal what he’s doing
>You didn’t think a wing was meant to stretch that far backward
>…Not a leg, either
>…Or any limb whatsoever for that matter
>Ivy steps forward and looks up at you. “I’d like to take it from here, if you don’t mind,” she says, smiling up at you
>You nod, before smiling at Sonic Boom and walking over to Typhoon to check on him
“Hey, bro, you alright?”
>Typhoon opens one eye to look up at you
>”Well, ain’t that a question to ask me right now,” he smirks up at you, before coughing hard, a small amount of blood trailing out of his mouth
“C’mon, hang in there, we’re gonna get you to some help, quickly.”
>He smiles and shakes his head. “Don’t worry ‘bout… me,” he says, looking off a bit before moving his eye to look at you again. “All I’m gonna do is hold ya back. You guys take care of yourselves first and foremost,” he lifts up a hoof to you. “That’s what bros do, after all.”
>Fuck that shit
>You shake your head, putting his hoof back down.
“Save that bullshit for someone that cares. You’re gonna get to safety even if I have to carry your battered body myself all the way back to Ponyville.”
>His eyes widen in surprise, and then he smiles and closes his eyes. “Thanks, man…” he mutters, before lying on the ground, a completely relaxed look on his face
>…No, it can’t be…
“Typhoon? Typhoon, stay with me!”
