A month after Rarity's foals were born, everything was quiet. Bic Macintosh was walking through town, until he bumped into Fluttershy wearing sunglasses. When they bumped into eachother, her glasses fell off and it revealed that she has a black eye.

"Oh my god. Fluttershy, what happened to you?", asked Big Mac

"I…fell", lied Fluttershy

"That does not look like you fell", said Big Mac

"Ok, my coltfriend "Stratus" and I had a little argument, and he accidently hit me", said Fluttershy

"He hit you?", asked Big Mac

"Yes", said Fluttershy

Suddenly, a blackish-grey pegasus with a red mane, and a sun with a grey cloud as his cutie mark showed up. It was Fluttershy's coltfriend "Stratus".

"DANG IT FLUTTERSHY WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!", yelled Stratus

"Sorry sweetie, I was just talking to my friend Big Macintosh", explained Fluttershy

"LET'S GO, YOUR SUPPOSE TO GIVE ME A WING MASSAGE", yelled Stratus

"Yeah about that, Im really tired. So can I can I go home and rest? I mean…if thats ok with you", said Fluttershy softly

"Oh I see, so your saying you want the back of my hoof", said Stratus raising his hoof

"No, it was just a suggestion", said Fluttershy softly

"Good, NOW LET'S GO", yelled Stratus hitting her flank

When they flew away, Big Mac was alone.

"Poor Fluttershy, I wish she didn't have to deal with him", said Big Mac

Later that night at Sweet Apple Acres, Big Mac was playing with Apple Heart who was now two months old.

"Oh Apple Heart, Im so glad that nopony hurts you", said Big Mac nuzzling her

"What do you mean, Mac?", asked Applejack holding Apple Sweets

"It's about Fluttershy and her abusive coltfriend", said Big Mac

"I know how you feel. We keep telling her to break up with him, but she keeps saying it ok", said Applejack

"Today in town, I saw her with a black eye. Then Stratus showed up and yelled at her, and hit her. Im really worried about her. Oh I can't take it anymore", said Big Mac handing her Apple Heart

"Where are you going?", asked Applejack

"To save Fluttershy from Stratus", replied Big Mac

When Big Mac ran out the door, he became a hero.
