Mad Pony: The Chaser’s Tale

Arc 1: Jack Meet the Mane 6:

Chapter 8: Party Poopers?

In Sugarcube Corner, there was just about every pony in Ponyville there, Jack noticed Fluttershy, Derpy and a white unicorn with a stylish purple mane, who he hasn't met yet.

"So you're the new pony that everyone was talking about?" the white unicorn walked up to Jack in an elegant manner.

"Y-Yes..." Jack answered nervously, "And you are...?"

"Rarity, or Miss Rarity if you prefer," the white unicorn known as Rarity introduced herself.

Jack was reminded when Naomi used the damsel in distress to try to kill him except he remains calm. As he keeps his distance from Rarity as he looked away from Rarity. He didn't want to hurt Rarity, but he has trust issues with women minus three geishas.

Jack said, "Nice to meet you..."

Rarity looked shocked at Jack's reaction and how he keeps his distance from her, something that rarely happened when she talked with stallions. She looked at Fluttershy.

"Is he alright dear?" she asked her.

Big Mac joined the party and he said, "He had some trust issues in the past, Miss Rarity..."

"Trust issues in the past? What do you mean?" Rarity asked in concern.

Big Mac understood what Jack meant when he was remembering the encounter with Naomi that he was supposed to rescue. It was all a show to kill him and set him up for a trap as Big Mac sighed as he explained to Rarity. Some stallions don't like how Jack keeps his distance to Rarity, but Jack has a reason.

After hearing the whole thing, Rarity looked horrified and concerned as she said, "Oh, my! I didn't know that he had to go through all that. No wonder why he seems uncomfortable around me."

"It's so sad..." Fluttershy agreed, feeling bad for Jack.

Big Mac noticed the stallions have given Jack the glare as he sighed.

"The other stallions don't seem to understand why Jack acted that way toward Rarity," Fluttershy said, "And instead they all think he's just a rude stallion."

"Hey now, I won't have any disagreements in this party!" Pinkie Pie said to the other stallions as she defends Jack, "Especially with our Guest of Honor!"

"But didn't you see how he reacted toward Rarity?" one stallion asked. "Talk about rude!"

"Yeah, so why are you defending him for that?!" another stallion asked.

"You guys just don't know him!" Pinkie said, "So what if he keeps his distance from Rarity, I'm positive he had a good reason! Just ask Big Mac!"

The stallions looked at Big Mac, but Big Mac has reasons to keep things to himself. He has a good reason to since the stallions will use it against Jack.

Big Mac said to the two stallions, "It is his reason, his reasons alone. He wasn't being rude to Rarity, I will advise you to drop it instead jumping into conclusion..."

Next thing, they knew the two stallions ended up leaving the party as they don't like him. Big Mac sighed, but Rarity walked up to Jack.

"Jack, Big Mac told me everything about what happened to you," Rarity said seriously with a look of sympathy on her face, "I had no idea how much trouble you had in the past."

Jack looked at Rarity and took second thoughts about it; she was very honest and emotional unlike Naomi. He could tell that she understood his situation, but it was rude of him to keep distance. He should never put judgment on anyone as he takes a deep breath and apologize.

"Yes. Everything Big Mac said is true," Jack said with a sigh, "Sorry about how I acted."

"You have your reasons," said Rarity to Jack as she understood except Jack used eye contact.

He tries not to get distracted, but the trust issues are the main factor for him and the others. The Apple Family believed him all the way while the CMC isn't aware of it since he believed they are too young to understand. Fluttershy was the first one to understand him quite well, except he feared Angel since he got the feeling that he will encounter the white bunny again.

Twilight, Spike and Applejack soon came to join the party, along with the CMC. Pinkie Pie appears in front of them.

"Hey, where have you guys been? The party has already started!" she said, "Come on, we were just about to play 'Pin the Tail on the Pony'!" she says while hopping happily.

Spike noticed Jack talking to Rarity while Twilight promised herself not to embarrass herself. Applejack was right, but she needed to give time to win his trust. It wasn't going to be easy for her as she was suspicious since he wasn't around from here.

"Hey! What's he doing with my Rarity?!" Spike shouted in jealousy.

Twilight couldn't help but chuckle at Spike's reaction when he saw Jack and Rarity talking, knowing how much he loves her.

As the party continued on as Jack keeps distance when he watched them. He doesn't enjoy cupcakes, but it sucks that it doesn't have alcohol. He remained calm when he drinks from the distance except he flinches as he saw something from outside. He remained calm as he sighed.

Up in the sky, there was what appeared to be a black and white vortex forming, some force turning everything black and white around it. That vortex was bad news as what appeared to be the same thugs from Deathwatch were about to emerge from it.

Jack flinched when he felt something familiar as he looked out of the window. He never expected to encounter them again when he rushed out of the Sugarcube Corner. He flinched to see them before him and the thugs have come to cause trouble. He never expected them to come here, but who was behind it? It doesn't matter when Jack unleashed the chainsaw to attack them except it was stopped by Twilight. Jack looked back to see Twilight Sparkles as she used her magic to restrain him.

"Let me go," said Jack to Twilight in anger as she wasn't aware of the dangers and he tries to break free from it.

"No! I won't let you kill ponies!" Twilight shouted.

"Thus it helps you too wondered that they aren't friendly," said Jack to Twilight in anger.

It was a harsh misunderstanding for Twilight and Jack as the thug ponies came out from the vortex. They aren't friendly when they are from Jack's world as they are ready to cause trouble. Twilight tries to use her magic to keep Jack contain, but something went wrong when Jack's will power has caused it too shattered. Jack detected dangers around the place as every pony flinched to hear the word "kill". Jack reacted to seeing Granny Smith in the middle of it, but Twilight doesn't understand what's going on with her magic.

"I... MUST... HELP THEM!!" Jack shouted as he amazingly broke free from Twilight's magic, much to Twilight's shock.

"Impossible! No one breaks my magic!" Twilight thought in shock, "Something must be wrong."

Jack sensed danger in the area, and he saw Granny Smith in the middle of it, making him shout, "Oh no, Granny Smith!"

Jack recognized the silhouette before her and noticed the huge spiked mace. As Jack recognized the silhouette "Little Eddie" as he have to block the mace from hitting Granny Smith. He countered it with a strong kick sending it back to the stomach. As he protected Granny Smith from harm as everyone wondered what was going on from the outside.

"What the (Beep)?!" a thug pony gasped when he saw Jack, "A pony with a chainsaw!?"

"(Beep)! It's that psycho-maniac with the chainsaw!" another thug pony recognizes him.

Jack Cayman?!" the third thug pony gawked in shock.

Meanwhile, Little Eddie recovered and looked up to see Jack defending Granny Smith. Granny Smith was surprised that Jack protects her from harm, but she knew that Jack will protect any pony from harm.

"Cayman!" Little Eddie snarled upon seeing Jack, "I've been looking for you!"

"I thought I crushed your head to bits with your own weapon!" Jack yelled at him in anger, "Did the Black Baron share his secret for surviving gruesome deaths or something?!"

"Enough talk!" Little Eddie snarled, "This time, I'll murdalize you!"

"What in Equestria is going on here?" Twilight asked in shock as she ran up to the area Jack is in.

But the thug ponies blocked her path, forcing her to stop.

Jack yelled with intimidation, "Get out of the way, and get Granny Smith to safety now!"

Big Mac witnessed this as he rushed into battle as he rushed into the battle as he attacked the thugs threatening the ponies. CMC, foals, and fillies witnessed what was going on outside from the window. The thug ponies attack Twilight with their weapons, she reacts in shock as she teleported to dodge their attacks. She reappears next to Granny Smith. The thugs surround them both and attack them, except Twilight teleported Granny Smith and her out of there, causing the thug ponies to bump and hurt each other. Twilight and Granny Smith reappear away from the area.

"Maybe I should cancel the bet, because I don't think I wanna use all my bits," Twilight remarked, "But that's not the point. The point is, now I know why Jack tends to kill for good!"

Twilight was injured except she never felt fear in her life. She was shaking in fear when she teleported back to Sugercube Corner.

Fluttershy said to Twilight, "You're hurting..."

"It's those big ponies," Twilight explained, "Whoever they are, they did this to me."

After going up to Twilight, Rainbow Dash said, "That goes to show you, Twilight. You mustn't judge another pony."

Rainbow Dash wanted to help out as she flew out of the Sugarcube Corner when she cannot sit around within the Sugarcube Corner. She wasn't able to finish the sentence as she headed out and Twilight finished Rainbow Dash's line. As she watched she saw more damage and danger around Ponyville.

After going up to Twilight, Rainbow Dash said, "That goes to show you, Twilight. You mustn't judge another pony..."

"...by its cover, I know." Twilight finished Rainbow's sentence with a sigh before she looked around Ponyville. "I can't believe this is happening. How is it possible that something out of this world could come here and cause destruction and danger?"

"Well, whatever, I'm not going to sit back and let some freaks destroy our town and get away with it! Let's go Applejack!" Rainbow Dash said as she flew out of Sugarcube Corner and joins the battle.

"Right behind ya, Rainbow Dash," Applejack shouted as she followed her Pegasus friend to fight the thug ponies.

Twilight was confused when she looked down in shame as she watched everyone giving it all to take down the thugs. She doesn't understand how could it happen now, but she cannot blame it on Jack except she feels distrust for some reason. She watched him take on Little Eddie in battle as Fluttershy flinched in fear while Granny Smith placed her hoof on Twilight's shoulder.

"Dear Twilight, I understand how you feel." Granny Smith said comforting Twilight, "You are still young and there's a lot that you don't know of. It's true that it's important to fight for what you believe in and for what is right, but sometimes, you have to put aside your beliefs, morals and integrity in order to help those in need. Sometimes, you must sacrifice your own needs to help and protect those you care about."

"I suppose you're right," Twilight said quietly, “I guess not everything can be solved with logic and reasoning."

Twilight didn't say a word when she watched the others fight, but it was very suspicious as she looked at the vortex. She called Spike to write a letter to Princess Celestia as she ended up learning something, but Ponyville needed help immediately. Twilight cannot think of writing the letter when she rushed out of there. The ponies were endangered as she witnessed the chaos.

She couldn't think as she rushed out of there as she was determined. Fluttershy couldn't help as Jack taking down Little Eddie except she felt the determination within her. She has done something about it as she rushed out of there to help. The Mayor wondered what was going on when she came out of town hall, except she reacted when the thug ponies were causing chaos. She reacted in shock as she called a statewide emergency.

While Jack fought against Little Eddie, Twilight and her friends used their own abilities to bring down the thug ponies. Twilight shoots magic blasts at them, Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Rarity use martial arts, Fluttershy uses strategies to trick the thugs into attacking each other and last Pinkie Pie uses her Party Cannon.

Twilight noticed something wrong with her magic as she continued the blast them. Something was wrong when her magic isn't showing any effects on the thugs except she flinched. She flinched to hear a laugh as something was toying with her. Spike aided the battle as he fought alongside with them while the other ponies watched the others. One pony came out one by one from Sugarcube Corner to protect their home and the citizens.

"Something seems to be wrong with my magic. It doesn't seem to affect those bullies," Twilight said in concern. Then, she heard a laugh, as if something or someone was toying with her.

As she forced to go offensive as she dodged their attacks and countered it. She flinched when she noticed something suspicious about the sky. She should have sworn that it was Discord when she continued to attack the thug ponies.

"It has to be Discord doing this!" Twilight thought as she fought the ponies.

She couldn't be sure about it when she has to figure out how Discord came out of his stone statue. They continued to fight to defend Ponyville from the threatening. Little did Twilight and her friends knew the Ponyville Citizens joined in the fight to defend their home. They were working together to defend the threat from the thug ponies.

Until... bright light shows up from different areas, Twilight and the others reacted when the thug ponies disappeared. The sky returned back to normal, but Twilight was suspicious that it was too fast. She could feel the effect of the vortex, but she will need to do more research. Jack was going to finish off Little Eddie except he missed when his chainsaw slammed on the concrete.

"Citizens of Ponyville, your hero has arrived!!!!"
