The End

The End

Chapter 1

You've all heard the story. A human comes to Equestria, makes friends with the cast, sets up a nice life there, and lives happily ever after, right?

Well I'm here to tell you that things don't always end there.

Despite all these years, I still remember that day; the day SHE showed me her true colors and cast me out.

Alone in the world, no friends to count on, and an infinite number of dangers at my back. Several times over the years I've found myself walking the razors edge between life and death, and only out of sheer willpower have I survived.

I crossed treacherous mountain ranges, crossed over vast deserts, and traversed through the roughest of waters, just to survive in this confusing world. Yet no matter how far away I traveled, her image seemed to haunt me mercilessly.

Along my travels, I found evidence of people similar to my own situation. Cast out into the world to wander until their death. The corpses of my fellow humans is chilling to say the least, especially in some of the conditions I found them in. Yet this only seemed to reaffirm what I was had intentionally thought all those years ago when I first met yet.

She saw us as pawns- no! less than pawns- just pieces with no purpose and only there for her own amusement.

With every body I found, I could feel the hatred boiling up inside myself, even as my own body aged throughout the years I wandered. The bodies I found though showed me that they had suffered far worse than I had, but each one I did find had a story to tell with what I found on their remains.

Some had royal guard armor on when I'd found them, indicating their place in canterlot.

Some had elaborate clothing, showing their connection to rarity.

And on a few, I found lockets, said individuals with a loving look in their eye as they gazed into the eyes of their favorite pony.

Granted many years ago when I'd first seen a locket, I was in shock. The first I found depicted an average human male with twilight at the gala, a shock because I myself had been the one escorting Twilight to the gala that evening, as friends though; although in the first locket I found, it seemed that they were a lot closer than that. As the years went on, I found more and more pictures showing ponies with humans.

The humans in the pictures always seemed so close to the ponies they were with. Each human had love in their eyes and just by looking at the equine they were with I could tell they felt the same way. But it would seem that they had been forced apart by the same equine I'd been cast out by!

Journals along the way helped piece together the events quite easily, every single person I found with evidence to the past showed the exact same thing happening over and over again.

Slowly the pieces fell into place and they painted the picture of a mad woman, or mare in this world. These 'random occurrences' such as discord, the wedding, and even the return of the crystal empire, were all set up. Each time these 'random events' showed up, she'd call the nearest human, get him or her involved, and then see how they did. And each time she had her fill of amusement, she'd just reset the world, using some kind of mass hypnosis spell on the masses to keep them ignorant.

It would appear however that the spell didn't work on humans though. This idea was only reaffirmed when I looked up into the sky one night only to see the mare on the moon once more in place with nopony questioning how or why this was there.

Now when I finally learned just what was going on, I did my best to try to change things. I tried to get close to the next human to come, I tried to pass messages, and even launch an assault against her when she was at her weakest. But in the end she stopped me every time, seeing my continued existence as a small side project to her fun. But after so many times, I just gave up and tried to leave my life behind me. I did my best to ignore the events happening, to try and just live out my life as a hermit somewhere in this world and let the mad chess master do her thing.

But then came Susie.

A little girl, god dammit, A LITTLE GIRL! I could tell her corpse was fresh when I'd stumbled upon it. Judging by the body warmth, the death had occurred only a few hours before I'd discovered it. At the time I'd been exploring the frozen wasteland to see if the Crystal Kingdom was back, but my expedition stopped when I found her. She looked like she'd been mauled by a bear of some sort, her body was hardly recognizable but she'd kept a small backpack on her which held a few important things.

A journal where she wrote about her adventures with her new best friends, a teddy bear made by rarity, and a picture frame with her beside the mane 6. This little girl had no idea just what she'd stumbled into, believing that it was a dream come true only for it to turn into a nightmare when she'd been cast out and mauled.

She'd only been six.

That was the last straw for me, on that day I swore vengeance, I swore that if it was the last thing I did, I would end these games.

Celestia. Would. Pay.
