Equestria; a journey with equines

Chapter 13

I'm such an Asshole

The flight back to Ponyville didn't take much time at all, allowing me little time to actually comprehend what I had actually done. It hadn't even passed my mind that there would be severe consequences, or the fact that Silver old now tell everypony about what I had done.

I land in the centre of town, it seems the party has long since been disbanded. It is clear from the fact that any trace of the party has been tidied away perfectly. Nothing is out of place and there are no lights in any of the houses. The apparent pitch blackness seems to have no effect on me whatsoever, I can see as clear as Celestia's day.

The lack of street lights and other forms of light pollution means that I can see Luna's night with an impossible amount of clarity. It's absolutely stunning. Beautiful. An observation that shows that the cloud hanging in my mind is dissipating, allowing my calmer side to emerge from the fires of hatred. It suddenly occurs to me, I murdered  Diamond Tiara in cold blood and despite the emergence of the rest of myself from the cloud prison, I smile.

I always hated bullies, and the majority of other antagonists. That and politicians, and lawyers, and the educational system, and democracy, and the government. I really hate the fucking government, there're always trying to screw over the people of their nation. But I especially hate the way Diamond and Silver antagonised the CMC. I can take abuse, both emotional and physical, a resilience that they don't seem to have. I remember someone saying that ignorance is bliss, but I can't remember who.

I stroll through the darkened streets of the silent Ponyville towards Twilights library for some rest. A sanctuary in this...

Wait.

Twilight was talking with Celestia at the party, and she knows about Trixie. She tells Celestia everything, which means I'm not safe there. It may be best if I go incognito for a while, even disappear entirely. Invisibility is something I can do. I despise confrontation, and such confrontation may lead to unwanted conflict. I don't want to hurt anypony, apart from maybe Blueblood and a few others. Bastards.

I wonder how comfortable a tree is?

I know, I'll sleep in a cloud, in a tree, in the everfree. Nopony would look for me there, at least, I hope not.

I retrieve my lonely little cloud car from where I had previously parked it, I'm fairly surprised it was still there. I fly it over to the Everfree forest, a place nopony dare tread without a real good reason. Or a death wish. It's also an abundance of interesting creatures, the likes of which never been tasted by humans. Manticore burgers, Cockatrice kebabs and flame grilled Hydra steaks, I'll have a BBQ! It's going to be awesome!

I insert the cloud into the top branch of a tree, a tree that is slightly taller than the others to make sure I don't lose it. The tree is just within the borders of the Everfree, making sure that I'm not too far from civilisation. I attempt to cloak the cloud nest thing from prying eyes using a touch of magic. It looks just like a regular tree, the magic even hiding me when I lay in the cloud. Perfect.

From my nest, I can see above the tree line, all the way to Ponyville and all the way to the mountains on the other side of the forest. Hey, I can see Fluttershy's cottage from here, I'm not even that far off, maybe I'll pay her a friendly visit at some time after my situation has improved. But like that's ever going to happen, I'm probably a criminal now, the likes of which Equestria has never seen. Humans are assholes, that much I know.

I curl up in my cloud nest in the tree and make an attempt at sleep. My mind still full of the murder and hatred from earlier today. Two murders, an epic party, aggravated assault and games with the CMC all in one day. Incredible. I'm such an asshole, killing may be fun and satisfying, but it's still wrong. I'm such an asshole. I am such a fucking asshole. This is no way someone is supposed to live.

I tore two ponies to shreds because I dislike them. I admit that Trixie deserved it through attempted arson, but I forced them to pay the ultimate price and enjoyed it. The law would've taken care of the whole situation if I had just simply detained Trixie. I stole from Silver's lover from her and ate her, this was completely unnecessary considering what they had done. I could have just confronted them and intimidated them into not being assholes like me, and instead to try and be nicer. But no, I attacked them instead. I don't deserve any of this, I should be dead. Why did fate choose someone like me to save from that plane crash?

Sleep comes shortly after, tearing myself about being a murderer sapping my strength until I drifted off to sleep. And into his realm...
