As I marched into the dark woods, not knowing where I would end up, I could tell that I had escape the crowed that came my way. I took a breather and collapse down on a nearby tree. As I checked my arm, the pain was even more excruciating than before. I ripped off a part of my shirt and wrapped it around the wounded area.

“There…that should be good, for now at least,” I said. I looked around myself and realized something else as well. It was pitch black in here. I pulled out my flashlight in my jacket pocket and flick it on. But apparently, it must’ve been the humidity damaging the batteries because I could get it to barley work! “CRAP!” I shouted in the forest and seemed to cause every living thing that was hungry to come my way. The next thing I knew, I was being stared down my something in the dark. I saw a pair of eyes right in front of me and I felt the shivers going down my spine. I knew one thing though…Whatever is watching me, it knows I’m weak, and venerable enough to be attacked.  Meanwhile on the path way, Twilight and her friends were walking straight down the forest, staying together in these dark woods.

“Seems like it was only yesterday we walked through these woods. This is where we first became great friends,” Twilight said.

“Yeah, those were great times,” Apple Jack said. As they continued to march, they saw that the tracks were getting deeper.

“…These are new tracks. There fresh and look, Twilight walked over to a red puddle of something and examined it.

“What in the name of ponyville is that?” Rainbow Dahs asked. Pinkie Pie walked over and did something stupid.

“Oh, it looks pretty, let me taste it!” Pinkie then dipped her hoof in it and licked it.

“PINKIE PIE!” They all shouted. At first there was nothing, and then something must’ve been wrong because Pinkie Pie’s face turned green and the next thing she knew she threw up in a nearby bush.

“That…taste…awful,” Pinkie said with a shiver. Twilight rolled her eyes and used her magic to summon a useful tool. As she made it appear, she scooped the red stuff and examined it. She couldn’t believe her eyes!

“Girls…you’re not going to believe this but that stuff is…is…is…BLOOD!” Twilight shouted. The others eyes shot open.

“You mean to tell me that that thing out there that we’re following…is bleeding to death?” Apple Jack asked.

“Could be possible, the way this…blood…gulp…is laid here, it looks like its loosing blood, and a lot of it,” Twilight said.

“Well we must find that poor creature and help him!” Rarity said.

“Hold on, haven’t you forgotten something…we’re stuck here in the dark!” Rainbow Dahs shouted. Then in the mist of her voice a large explosion blew not too far from the ponies.

“Whoa! What the hay was that?” Apple Jack asked as she held her hat on tighter.

“I don’t know, but lest find out!” Twilight alleged. She and the others ran as fast as they can to where the explosions were happening. At the site of the explosions I was dogging and throwing makeshift explosives I had received from Neko as a trade for the pizza, but I was running low on ammunition fast.

“Come on you wooden freaks! I can do this all night!” I shouted. I had seen my predators were wood like wolves and I was kind of freaked out a bit. But a wolf is a wolf, and they always like meat! Another one tried to jump on my back, but luckily I dogged the attack and kicked the wolf in the jaw, causing it to break. Good thing I took Romans Fighting arts back at his place. But there were still five more and the other ones I demolish just keep putting themselves back together! Dammit, that is so not fair! They all ganged up on me again, hoping they could sink their fangs into my body. I stood my ground, but I was apparently handicapped and could only fight with one arm. I stood firm as they charged at me again. In a nearby bush, Twilight and her friend as were able to find the culprit they were following and were beyond words at this point!

“That…it’s…it can’t…a human in Equestria!?” Twilight stuttered.

“This…is…so…AWESOME!” Rainbow Dash squealed. As they continued to watch me from afar, I noticed hem as soon as I kicked a timber wolf down and broke his jaw.

“What the-! GAHHH!” I shouted in pain as one of the Timberwolves bit into my right arm, the same arm that was morally wounded from the fall. I fell in pain as another bit into my left leg. I screamed in pain as they gathered around me.

“You girls we got to do something! He might be the one we’re following!” Fluttershy said.

“What do we do against Timberwolves?” Rainbow Dahs asked AS I looked up, I saw the animals arguing over to save me or not, I gathered up the last of my strength and shouted at them.

“ARE YOU GOING TO STAND THERE ALL FUCKING DAY!? GET OVER HERE AND HELP ME!” I shouted. The animals looked at me and were even shocked.

“Did he…just…speak?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“Whatever he is…I’m not letting him die. Let’s go girls!” Twilight shouted. As she jumps out form the bush, the others followed her in and charge at the wooden animals. The two other ones pinning me down threw me at a tree and ran to help the others. Twilight and her friends fought continuously until the leader of the pack received a blow of magic to the head. The others whimpered and ran away deeper into the woods. My eyes started fade and my vision started to blur too. I felt the blood rushing out of me like a river, a very fast river.

“Crap…crap…it hurts…it hurts…it hurts…,” I thought in pain. I looked at my body and was not pleased at what I saw.  The animals I shouted at rushed to my side, examining my wounds.

“Hey…hey…can you hear me?” A purple figure said to me. My eyes started to fade into black as I continue to lose more blood.

“We need to get him out of here, quickly now ya’ll,” I heard another voice said. As my eyes shut down, I fell into an eternal slumber and fainted as I was unaware of my rescuers. My body felt numb, numb as a clod dead figure.

“….Am I dead?” I thought to myself. I continue to hear voices around me as well.

“…We can’t let the ponyville police find him! They’ll throw him into jail!”

“We can’t keep it a secret either Twilight! Somepony is going to find out!” I continue to hear bickering and arguing over my sleep. I felt my muscles going control again, so I guess I could probably open my eyes. I squinted open my eyes as I awoke from my slumber, and as I did the voices silenced.

“Shh, he’s waking up!” Another voice said. As my eyes came to, I saw I was lying on a soft bed, my wounds all bandage up, and I was alive again.

“What…where am I?” I asked myself. As I looked up I saw that I was surrounded my six colorful animals around the bed I’m lying on. I thought I was in someone’s house with a bunch of animals…until reality hit me.

“Oh my…he’s such a handsome darling isn’t he?” A white horned horse said to me. My eyes shot open as I saw and heard those words.

“GAHHH!” I jolted up from the bed and then slammed it on the wall behind me.

“Are you all right?” The purple one asked. I was totally freaked out right now.

“What…what are you? Scratch that part where the fuck am I?” I shouted.

“You’re in Equestria, but the place you’re currently in is called ponyville,” A pink horse said.

“But…but…I was…I...Gah!” I flinched as I looked at my wounds, they were all bandage up and well.

“Careful now…you injured yourself pretty badly,” The purple on said.

“You…you helped me?” I asked.

“Yeah, you’re welcome mister,” A blue flying horse said to me. I looked at them and realized something; they were horses, but ones with wings and horns. I think I heard of them before.

“So who are you? Some kind of talking horses?” I asked.

“Hey, that’s ponies to you sir!” The blue on said.

“So you’re a pony?” I asked again.

“NO! I’m a pegasus, a type of flying pony and those two over there are unicorns!” The blue one said again.

“Okay I’m trying to get everything right here, pegasus, unicorns, earth ponies…so do you have names?” I asked.

“Of course, my name is Twilight Sparkle, this is Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Apple Jack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie,” Twilight said.

“Nice…to…meet you,” I said.

“Now it’s our turn. What is your name? We know you’re a human, and we don’t see humans here in Equestria very often,” Twilight asked.

“How do you know humans?” I asked.

“I’ve read every book in this library about different types of species. Goblins, Draconians, Centaurs, Basilisk, etcetera, etc.,” Twilight said.

“Well…if that’s the case, my name is X,” I said. I could tell I was going to be stuck her for a long time and one thing i know that I knew for sure is this…I got my wish.
