Issues from a Lonely Somepony
It wouldn't hurt... would it?
Load Full StoryNext ChapterJumping; running; dodging. That's all what you can think, when you're being chased by a draconequus, in the middle of the night, on top of Manehattan's houses. Her appearance was similar to Discord's, but this one was different. It was wearing a black hood with multicolored eyes and her powers were somehow limited — she had low energy to endure two spells in a row; She had to "recharge" at every seven seconds to use another spell — but even with this limitation, she had great accuracy with the bow and great skills with her katana. He keep dodging the advances, looking for a gap where he can fight back but she doesn't want to cooperate with him and continue to charge from a secure position.
He decide to leave the house roof and land in the street where shadows can help. The canine creature make a symbol with his blood in his paw to craft a shadow halberd and as it reaches the surface, he grab it with his mouth and defend himself from her acrobatic assaults. Her katana dances, trying to reach his neck as the draconequus' tail try to knock me down. I'm paying attention and dodging every attack she does, but she snapped her finger and manipulated a shadow spell to pierce my heart. It just didn't pierced it because his reaction was faster than light, so the shadow hit my foreleg. The creature scream in pain, falling in the ground.
Black Blur
The draconequus, named of Insanity took off your cloak — luckily nopony was around there to see my appearance — and stared at your face, which was with an anger and painful glare at Insanity.
"Phew," sighs the Dark-scaled draconequus."You gave me a lot of trouble now, Honey."
You stare daggers at her, "Don't thou think it's over–GUH!"
The draconequus laugh out loud at you in sarcasm, "UH, I'm SOOOO SCARED, LITTLE FOXY," she says with a grin across her mouth.
"You should be... cause when I get back, I'll FINISH THEE," You say, getting out a bandage in your hurt foreleg, allowing your blood to reach the magic circle in the spot. When it reaches the circle, You're simultaneously teleported from Manehattan to a small city. It was night and you needed needed medic treatment, but you knew that if you went to an hospital, they'd probably leave you hurt there.
When you're about to faint, a grey silhouette is coming your way.
"Oh my Celestia, are you okay?!" she says as she stand before you.
"H-help... me," you faint.

Running in the darNkOHELPtrying to gethHOopPEeLESSCREATURE, DIE!!!
You wake up. It wasn't any hospital, but you could feel that the wound was being healed and that's when you see a bandage that was glowing a slight green light around it.
You stare down at your paws... Aren't you... strong enough? That draconequus absolutely had some difficulty on knockin' you down, but still...
Your thoughts are interrupted as you hear the door opening, allowing a grey pony to walk up to you with golden crossed eyes and a concerned looking.
"Hey..." She says. "How's your–"
"Fine," you cut her off as you try to walk by yourself, but your harmed leg won't let you walk. You groan in frustration.
The mare is staring at you, with those golden eyes of hers and say, "OK. That's all what I came for anyway," the pony doesn't seem to be angry.
"And by the way–" she turn her head to you "–my name's Derpy Hooves. Do you mind on telling me yours?"
You stare at the mare in silence for some seconds.
"When you feel like talking, just scream my name that I'll come here as fast as I can. Bye!" she says, closing the door. Well, usually in these situations you're able to run away, but this time the wound was really painful; since it was caused by Shadow element.
At the side of the door, was a drawer and on top of it, your hood and your scarf. Since you have nothing to do, you lay down on the pillow getting another one on your side to bury your face on it.
Father... I promise I'll kill her for our clan's pride.
Thou pride.
Tears fall down your face as you fall asleep again.
//_-One week later...-_//
You never woke up like this in your whole life... the birds were singing, the children playing, ponies talking, everypony had a grin in the face as they keep enjoying the beautiful day that was out there. Good thing you were healed but you still couldn't go out there... A black and orange fox wasn't a pony after all.
You keep staring at the window until Derpy enter the room and stand next to the bed you were. My attention turn back her, expressionless.
"Do you want to go out?" she ask you out of a sudden. You start to consider if she's crazy, because a black fox would certainly scare all the other ponies. She understand your concern, but she insist.
"I know that you think you're scary only because you're not a pony," Derpy says. "But still you can't hide yourself from the world, you've gotta show how you really are."
You stare at her and think of the words she said. You cannot hide yourself from the world, used to say your father/said Derpy.
"I think... It won't be a problem if I just go out for some minutes," you say. "But only a few minutes."
She opens a smile and walk out of the room. You grin thankful that you met somepony like that.
On a hurry, you get out of the bed and go to take a shower before going out. Now out of the bedroom, you seek for the bathroom in the corridor until you find it. As you enter the bathroom you see that there's already a towel in there so you don't need to ask Derpy for one.
You turn on the shower and immediately you get deep in your thoughts.
How could this happen to me... why did it happen to me... good that this mare saved me... many other ponies would toss things on me... maybe I should talk to her about what happene–
"NO!" You scream, interrupting your self thoughts; She'll get hurt if she discover anything... I may be quiet about this subject 'till I leave... I don't want anypony to get hurt because of me...
"... Mr. Fox?" Derpy interrupt your thoughts this time. "Is that you in there?"
"Aye," you respond to her. "Anything wrong?" You ask.
"Nonono, is just that–" she made a little pause, "–I was passing through the door and I heard your scream," she says concerned, "Is everything alright there?"
"Aye, miss Derpy," you respond, "I was just thinking about something, and then the thought just got out of my mouth."
"Oh, okay," she respond relieved. "If you need anything you can call me, Okay?"
"Right," you say, now almost finishing your bath.
§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§
After bath, you got your scarf over your neck preparing to go outside, but suddenly you run into a little filly — unicorn one — sitting in the living room. You stare at her, a little bit surprised on what you've found there.
The filly is staring at you, with no reaction. Well, nothing new since you're not a pony.
"Hey," you say approaching the filly, "my name is Black Blur. What's your name?"
The filly look down her toys, answering "I'm Dinky."
Her cheeks were slight red, she was embarrassed.
"Oh well, Dinky–" you sit down in front of her, "–what art thee playing there?"
She look up to you with a small grin, "I'm playing mommy!" she says enthusiastic and euphoric.
"Mommy?" you ask with a innocent smile, "That's cool."
She begin to levitate a toy in your direction, looking like a male pony. You're confused, but you hold it anyway.
"Now, you're daddy!" she said.
You blushed a little and was confused, but you play together with her for some minutes.
After that you decide to ask her something.
"Dinky–"
"Mommy!" she correct you.
"Okay... Mommy," you say, "art thee Derpy's filly?"
She pauses and turn her head back to you, with a serious expression.
"Yes," she says. "Mommy says that I'm her little muffin. I love mommy the way she is, you know?" now you could see some tears forming in her eyes.
You try to break the mood as soon as you can; stupid fox.
"H-hey!"
She stares at you with big-wet eyes.
"Do thy mom play this game we're playing?" you say and you can already see a little smile upon Dinky's face.
"Yeah. Mommy plays with me sometimes before we go to sleep," she answer the question getting exited.
§"§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§"§
All this conversation with Dinky distract you enough for half an hour, before Derpy find you and Dinky in the living room.
Derpy giggle at us, "So you've met Mister Foxy already?"
"Mommy!" she jump out of her place trotting toward Derpy and hugging her forelegs, "His name isn't Foxy, his name is Black Blur!"
"Oh, really?" Derpy said staring at you. "Well, how about we go play outside with mister Black Blur?"
"Can we?" ask the little filly.
"Course we can, lil' muffin," Derpy answer.
Dinky run into her bedroom, as fast as she can. Derpy is standing there, staring at you.
"...Sorry if I caused thee any trouble," you say keeping eye contact with her.
"No, you didn't cause any trouble," she says. "Is just that this is the first time I see my little muffin happy like this with anypony else so... I'm just glad my little muffin found you interesting."
That makes you blush a lot.
"Thanks," you say as you turn around. "So, thee sure you want to come together? Ponies maybe will glare at us and at thee."
"I don't really care," she says. "In fact, I'm used to it already."
... That really got you. You're about to apologize, but Dinky enter the living room, go directly to you and hold your right paw with her left hoof.
"Let's go, BB?" she ask you with those big-yellow eyes and smiling, waiting for an answer.
"Let's go, Dinks," you say as you three walk in the door's direction.
Who'd say you'd be so welcomed in somepony's house.
Too bad you'd have/need to leave them as soon as possible.
