Peace

     Jacob awoke with sweat covering his body, he sat and looked at the rest of the tribe. They were all still sound asleep, Karyn was even snoring. He quietly climbed out of his sleeping bag and stomped out any ember left in the fire that centered their temporary campsite. He opened the leaders log and started to write.

     "I fear my actions will effect the whole tribe, I threw a chair at the dark horse of the pony present. Of course it was only in my nightmare, she saved me from the past dark horse using the magic only capable by her. I really regret my actions, I don't know why I did what I did but I it was instinct. My body caught up to my mind and it reacted to seeing a pony, the hatred I was supposed to feel just exploded. I only hope is that I can apologize later, she knew English but I fear she ndt the horse of flames will be the only ones to know our language. It seems ponies now have changed, I'm only guessing, it may not be a good thing to guess like this but I have no choice. We must make haste towards our destination.".

     Satisfied, Jacob, with swift motion, put away the Leaders Log and pulled out his spear. He smiled as he walked over to Lain's bag and pulled out a pan. He always loved being the first one awake. Carefully he placed the pan onto a low hanging branch. He then readied himself by turning the spear around so the point faced him. He brought it back letting out a small chuckle. He took a deep breath and..

     "RISE AND SHINE AND GIVE GOD THE GLORY GLORY, RISE AND SHINE AND GIVE GOD THE GLORY GLORY RISE AND SHINE AND, GIVE GOD THE GLORY GLORY CHILDREN OF THE LLLLLLLLLLOOOOORRRRRRRDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!! THE LORD TOLD NOAH THERES, GONNA BE A FLOODY FLOODY, LORD TOLD NOAH THERES, GONNA BE A FLOODY FLOODY, GET THOSE CHILDREN OUTTA THE MUDDY MUDDY, CHILDREN OF THE LLLLLLLLLLOOOOORRRRRRRDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!! RISE AND SHINE AND GIVE GOD THE GLORY GLORY, RISE AND SHINE AND, GIVE GOD THE GLORY GLORY, RISE AND SHINE AND GIVE GOD THE GLORY GLORY, CHILDREN OF THE LLLLLLLLLLOOOOORRRRRRRDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!".

     Jacob continued singing as the tribe moaned as there minds and body's came back into consciousness. It was weird, he felt like the song flowed through him, coming out of his mouth like a waterfall. It wasn't a peculiar feel, far from it in fact. He like singing this song now. Jacob felt he could keep on singing from dawn to dusk and repeat. The rest of the tribe stared at him with looks of surprise and disbelief though he didn't care. It felt like his purpose was to sing this song. Alas the song came to an end and everyone stared at him, silent and dumbfounded.

     "What? I like to sing? Is that weird to you guys?". Jacob said with a small chuckle. Karyn pointed behind him silently mouthing the words, behind you. It was at this time he heard the stomping of paws and the smell of dirty fur. He turned around with his bones shaking with each step he heard. Behind him was a full sized manitcore. And it looked hungry.

     "K Karyn, get everyone in the trees.". He said trying to hide his fear. He gripped his spear as the manticore huffed in Jacobs face. It stared down at Jacob as if to say, try me. It then looked to the rest of the tribe who was still climbing the tree. It licked its lips as it started to walk towards them. He needed to get it away from them, and fast! Jacob threw the spear and the Manticores paw and it screeched in pain with enough force to knock Jacob on his back. The mighty Manticore leaped at Jacob but Jacob rolled out of the way at the last second. He quickly stood and ran for his bag. He would have gotten there too but the angry beast said otherwise. It jumped in front of Jacob blocking his path and swiping at Jacob with his claws sending him back a few feet and leaving a gash all over his chest. He winced in pain as he stood and grabbed another spear that a tribe member left. He threw it and it hit the Manticores righ bat wing. Jacob saw that it's eyes were only filled with rage now. The beast charged at Jacob but he dived out of the way as the manticore triped on a root and hitting Jacob across the face with the non lethel side of its tail. Jacob scrambled to his feet and ran as fast as his injured body could. He reached his bag as the mighty manticore stood up again. Clumsly jacob reached out and pulled out the pistol. His hands shock as he shoved the bullet in the powerful weapon. The manticore charged at Jacob with a final blow. Jacob only had time for one shot. He waited for the manticore to get close and... BANG!! Jacob felt time come to a slow. He watched the bullet enter the manticores head righ between the eyes. The manticores whole body stopped at the same time as it tripped on nothing. It's whole body fell on its side and dragged along the ground stopping and Jacobs feet. He felt his heart slow to an almost stop as he fell on his back unconscious.

                                                                                   Five hours earlier.

     Rainbow dash laid there snoozing away in her cloud house without a care in the world. Suddenly there was a single knock and her door. It didn't continue until a few seconds later when it happened again. She groggily rolled out've her nice cloud bed and warm blanket. The knock came again and she groan as she lazily walked to the the door. It took her several tries to reach the handle but she slowly but surely opened the door and opened her eyes only to glance that nopony was at her door, she instantly shut them due to the light from Celestia's sun. She shut the door and walked back to bed, she didn't even get half way when the knocking started to happen once more.

     "Oh come ON!". She yelled in frustration. She walked slightly faster to the door and swung it open. "What do you wa-". She was interrupted by a stone hitting her between her eyes. She screamed in pain and instantly put her hoof up to the spot where the stone struck her.

     "Oops! Sorry about that Dashie!". Rainbow dash, or Dashie, opened her eyes to see the mare that struck her with the stone.

     "Pinkie! Why would you throw rocks at my house!". Dash said angerliy.

     "To wake you up silly billy! I couldn't use the pinkie powered flying mubober cause it's in the shop, my trampoline broke, and the author thought the party canon would break the readers mind though I don't know why!?". She said happily.  Rainbow dash decided not to question the last part.

     "Well I'm up now pinkie! Want do you want!". She asked slightly annoyed.

     "Twilight told us to meet her at the castle and she gave me the job to come wake everpony up!". Pinkie excitedly said as she bounced up and down. Rainbow moaned and rubbed her temples. Why couldn't she just let her sleep

     "Ugh, tell Twi I'll be there in a bit!". Rainbow said before she slammed her door. She heard Pinkie go, okie-dokey-loki  before bouncing off.

     "This is going to be a long day.". She said out loud
