Pure Luck
A mishap.
Load Full StoryNext ChapterA/N: just a two chapter one shot between Fluttershy and one of my own characters.
Small warning of blood and gore, and almost rape. Don’t worry fellas Fluttershy is going to be all right.
Disclaimer: Don’t own it MLP; I do however own me and that sad little kitten in that box over there.
...
It had been only three weeks, a small amount of time considering the size of the universe, but to me it seemed months.
I sat in a make-shift cot, which I had constructed from leftover plywood from my hostess’s storage shed. The soft sunlight from this world’s sun warming the skin on my arm and face, the light never going beyond warm where as mine would have burnt me to a crisp already, it was interesting being able to laze about in the sun without turning my pale white skin into the color of a cooked lobster.
I shifted, the soft rustle of my ‘new’ makeshift cloths that were courtesy of my hostess’s good friend, the ones I appeared here with were in the middle of gods know where in the vortex I was spat out of.
A soft voice spoke in the doorway, shy and timid but full of kindness.
“G-Gabriel, lunch is ready.”
…
In most cases, I would have to say this was really cliché.
But I suppose it’s just how the multiverse works.
I was your average young adult, fresh out of high school, hell you could practically tell how green I was just by looking at me. Young, having that certain light in your eyes that said something along the lines of ‘fresh meat’ to the more experienced world, and currently looking for a part time job.
The average, overused theme of how strange things usually start, from ordinary to extraordinary in the matter of days, seconds for some.
But again, I digress.
We all have to start from somewhere right?
My disappearing act had come gradually. One minute I was walking into my local McDonalds, thinking of what I wanted to order and judging the new My Little Pony kids toys that were currently displayed in a small box that hung from the wall. None of them seem to appeal to my high quality tastes.
Before my life changing experience began, I would like to say I was indeed a Brony, my favorites happening to be Luna, Twilight Sparkle, and of course Fluttershy for being so damn cute all the time. It was… strange.
You see, Time/Space gods don’t like it when universes rub against each other for one; it causes a lot of paper work and problems with physics which means a lot of frustrating cover up operations to keep the mortals happy and content with their world and not suddenly fucking up big time.
Second; something always disappears. It is entirely unpredictable to what will disappear, whether it be a dust bunny, a child’s toy, perhaps a small animal. But it always happens, and universes are simply too big to find and recover whatever disappears and put it back in its allotted universe.
But the gods freaked when I simply took a step toward the counter ready to order, and then ‘BAM!!!’ all that was left was my cloths, floating in midair then falling to the ground lifelessly. It certainly made everyone within the general vicinity lose it; the poor girl that was manning the cash register had to go to therapy for the next couple of months, with the sudden fear that people around her will simply disappear if she wished that they would disappear. Literally.
Somewhere in a different plane of existence.
The lesser goddess (one could say Angel, but not really) that watched over me, dropped her cup of warm jasmine tea in complete shock. The sudden separation of her charge punching her in the gut with such force, she threw up. Like all of her kind, the separation of the very thing they love the most could be fatal both physically and mentally.
Normally separation wouldn’t happen because of the final recycling process each soul goes through at the end of their terms on earth, or any life bearing planet, that usually consisted of a term of roughly two thousand life cycles. This occurs so rarely that even elder gods don’t consider it to be of any concern, but when it does like with what happened to me, they had less than half an hour to live.
The more insightful gods of the times decided that should it occur that a ‘panic’ button should be placed at each desk the lesser gods and goddesses worked at, so with her mind fading fast she struggled to press the small button on the side of her desk.
Amaterasu, who won the majority vote of this millennia’s Ruling God election (Earth Division), picked up the red phone on her desk as it rang. Her beautiful face growing angry from what she was hearing.
“What do you mean he simply disappeared!!!?? It was scheduled wasn’t it...? WHAT!!?? YOUR TELLING ME THAT IT WHEN ROUGE!!? GET ME CONTACT WITH THE NTB! AND GET THAT ANGEL MEDICAL ATTENTION NOW!”
The NTB or Nexus Travel Bureau was the central traveling agency from universe to universe, controlling all pathway travel between them. Normally if you were a Universe traveler, you would have to go to your local NTB agency and get either one of three passport cards.
Green for one occupant universe travel, and depending on how much you pay, you can travel as long as you want.
Blue for a limited multiple passenger travel, the maximum amount of people being eleven, if you were in a small group you would buy one of these so all of your friends could come with you.
And finally Gold or Platinum, Elder Gods/Goddesses and Demons usually carried these, allowing them access to anywhere in the multiverse and having as many as twenty charges in their care.
But when a normal human disappear without these cards, it again causes a shit load of paperwork and illegal immigration files to be formed out, not to mention very angry Head Gods because of losing one of their souls from Reintegration and Refinement National Treasury of their respected planet.
You see one human soul is worth about five trillion units of UE (Universal Energy) which technically is the currency and power source of the gods, talk about the soul being invaluable, and losing just one of them can cause a considerable dent in their economy because it just simply disappears. Natta. Nothing. Gone.
No exchange of funds to the God council, or anything, because I was no longer there.
“Yes, hello, I would like to ask if there were any papers informing me that a human was green to go through a Universal Warp Jump. No? Well what the fuck just happened then? What do you mean he warped without a BHCC (Black Hole Command Center) is that even possible?? Look here, Buster I just lost about seven trillion UE and a good kid (I was a good kid and a good person, so the value of my soul goes up depending on how the Soul Stock and Exchange is in demand of good or bad souls), from my planet and my religion… I don’t care if it was slight shift against Universe walls! Well contact them and find out where he!!!”
There was a pause.
“DAMNIT!!!!!”
She threw the phone off her desk, breaking it. Her little sister Tsukiyomi, looked at her worriedly.
“What’s the matter sis? Can we get him back?” Ameterasu scowled; pulling a huge bottle of sake from one of the draws in the desk she took a big swig of the thick drink.
“We can’t, even if we tried it would destroy him. Entirely. Soul, body, mind all would simply turn to putty the moment he stepped through an open pathway, it’s not like normal transfers… his body was unprotected and it changed him. Unlike Artificial Gods, he went through two universe barriers instead of getting stuck in the space in between them, and it’s left him in a pseudo god like state. Not really a god, but not really a human either… shit, that’s got be tough, not being able to come home and the fact he’ll live twice as long as any human makes it worse.”
Ameterasu and Tsukiyomi silently hoped I was okay and wished me luck.
I would need it.
…
Going through two Universal barriers, naked, at some couple quintillion light years per pica second was quite the experience and never in my prolong life do want to feel such pain, ever, ever again.
Imagine… well, dying.
Hard thing to comprehend when few people ever have lived through death, but I could describe it like jumping in water, burning ice then having a waterfall of glass fall on you, then being compacted into the size of a flea about seven or eight times. Oh, and feeling yourself grow older and younger at incredible rate.
So one could understand, the most basic inner instincts coming from when our ancestors first walked upon our earth took hold of me the moment I touched ground in a blaze of dirt and blood screaming bloody Mary.
My mind was blank, all I could feel was the need to run, and run away fast.
…
Fluttershy at the moment felt her heart burst with sadness, before her was something that resembled a hairless monkey as it was bipedal and had free use of its hands. It was trying so desperately to get away from her as it tried to climb the small cliff it was backed against, screams of fear and desperation ringing in the night air.
It crushed her, whatever it was, it had been hurt badly and blood flowed freely from horrible gashes, and from what she could tell maybe even a couple broken ribs racked it body with pain.
She tried moving forward to aid the large creature, try to bring it comfort, but unlike most larger and strange animals of the Evertree forest who backed down when she gave them the ‘stare’, he (from the glimpse of genitalia at its base, making it defiantly male) had cut her lightly on the cheek with his nails.
The fear in his eyes told her he was not in his right mind and needed to be calm before she could approach him.
So she waited, blocking him off when he tried to escape her sight and into the deep and wide Evertree forest. It was two hours before he gave up, residing to fate and curled up into a ball at the base of the cliff, rocking back and forth echoing sobs in the open grove.
She took a few steps forward, soothing him with soft whispers of ‘hush, hush, everything is alright’ he seemed to understand her, or at least understand the tones of her voice. He relaxed slightly, but was ready to spring at the hint of any danger.
She needed to contact somepony, perhaps Twilight, but she wouldn’t go anywhere at this moment lest she wanted him to disappear without healing first. It would be another hour before his rocking slowed and his breath became longer, if labored in a fitful sleep, she had only sat a couple feet from him and was humming lullaby’s trying to sooth him mentally.
Once she had made sure he was asleep she had gently, well tried to place him on her back, which was a difficult task. Now that he was finally still, she got to see the details she had missed earlier.
He was indeed hairless, only a small layer of peach fuzz covered him only thickness of hair was the top of his head, which was almost see through white. What she could guess at, he was about six feet tall when standing at full height, almost twice the size of her who only stood at a good four feet.
He had an angled face, and was strong chinned much like how the stallions’ jawline was, the body was smooth and slightly muscular showing that certain flexibility trait all primates shared.
She blushed heavily when her eyes glanced over his uncovered area getting a good view of the reproductive organ; she threw a sheet over him from her satchel to keep some level of decency, even if she didn’t know if he understood what it was anyway, she needed it.
Fluttershy hefted a sigh as she somehow lifted him up onto her back, and almost staggered at his weight. This was going to be tough getting him home.
…
I like so many others before me who have experienced a total blackout, woke up with the age old question.
“Where the fuck am I?” I asked the ceiling, but like any other ceiling it did not have the necessary means to form complete thought like I could to answer my question, it was completely concerned with being a ceiling at the moment.
That didn’t help my predicament, to where and how I exactly got here. So to compensate for lack of knowledge to where I am I began to observe my current surroundings.
For my brief and completely strange life, I witnessed one of most bizarre things I ever would see. As I looked at my hand, I noticed that I had an outline? No, I was quite awake, I could tell from the pinch I gave myself. But lo and behold there it was! Dare I say it, I looked… cartoonish.
I would like to say at this time, that I pride myself on being the most open minded person I know, noting the possibility of universal travel, possible. Gods? Plausible. Aliens? Believed we have conservatory act on us. Meeting the Characters from Naruto? Hopeful.
But this didn’t quite click with me, mainly because it was different sight sensory experience than I was born with and grew up with, that look of 3D-ness replaced with an odd mix of cartoon 2D and 3D, like from that game Prince of Persia where the lines flowed as I moved and considerably brighter than in my old world as if someone amped the contrast up on the RGB.
To where I was, I was in a small wooden room, it was simple containing a small dresser, vanity and side table, where a few bandages lay covered in blood and two large windows beside the bed. It had two doors at the wall directly facing me, one leading to what looked like a bathroom and the other was closed for now.
I
tried to move, that was a physical impossibility for my body’s legs was entirely unresponsive to my commands. So a laid there, waiting.
After a few moments of silence I began to hear muffled voices from the floor boards.
“… I think the princess should know what’s going on; after all… he doesn’t look like he’s from here, out of all the fauna I’ve seen he only basely resembles the primates. Like dragons, there’s practically nothing about… whatever you found.”
“b-but, I don’t want to scare him anymore Twilight. He was so scared last night; he was trying to climb a flat cliff trying to get away from me! Plus he’s still hurt and I don’t want him in a dark cell in the castle being question by the guards, that’s even if he can talk…”
I had to question what time era I was in, what with the talk of guards and princesses, and the surprising fact I could understand their language was phenomenal. I do realize that I was in a different universe, the sight sensory experience explained that much, but language was a form of communication. Unique to the planet and area you are born in, but to find English; a language of Germanic descent… Here? The chances of such a thing were reaching near infinity in likeability.
This gave me three hypotheses. One: English is a Universal Language, and there are many other worlds that use English as a language, this is sometimes comically suggested among the anime communities of earth, because normally everyone watches it in English despite the characters being in japan.
Second: I was bat shit lucky to land on a planet that, coincidently, spoke my birth language. But this seemed highly unlikely.
Third: Having crossed out of my own universe into another, the trip has altered my brain to translate native languages into English, ergo through unnatural processes.
Mulling this over, it also gave me small impressions to the voices in the room below me, and ideally the people I will be dealing with when they decided to check up on me. the first voice gave me the impression she (the tone and way she said it indicated female, along with the second voice) was a rational thinker and loyal to her countries ruler, much like the smarter patriots of earth’s time. The way she termed ‘dragons’ indicated another similarity between my world and hers, and way she said it made me wonder if there were living specimens on this planet.
The second voice, sounded shy yet generally concerned with my wellbeing that made me feel warm inside, it was nice to know there was at least one person was compassionate to my case. And judging by what she describe, I was on full ancestral Primate ‘Flee on sight’ instincts when I blacked out, making it more impressive that she actually watched over me while I was in such a state. A dangerous state that was, I was basically like a rabid and scared monkey ready to attack anything that got remotely close.
“We need to at least tell our friends, that way we can keep him under control and wont attack everypony.”
The voices were getting louder… ‘Everypony’ what an odd word, it reminded me of my favorite show on television My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and it was used when one of the ponies was generalizing more than one of their kind…
If I was holding something, I would have dropped it in shock. Of course I had a tiny suspicion to where I was as this room looked oddly familiar, but this.
This was so damn ironic that I laughed, long and hard.
Whatever Gods of Luck watched over me, they must like me a lot, I mean I was a Brony! And where do I end up? Smack dab in the middle of Equestria, that’s where! Oh this was indeed a hoot!
Like most (or maybe just me) I always wanted to meet the colorful ponies, become friends with them and protect them from harm. A guardian of sorts, and it was all good imaginative fun, but this was the real deal! I shook like a windblown lantern flame, the excitement of meeting two of my all-time favorite ponies nearly bursting out of me. But I needed to calm and restrain myself, I knew about them, but they know nothing of humans.
Calm, collected I told myself, sitting up a little feeling the burning sting of broken ribs and adopted a soft but serious look. Hmm still naked, later I will ask for some cloths.
The door rattled as the handle was pulled, and I was greeted by the most beautiful creatures I ever laid eyes upon. They did look like their television counter parts, but triple their beauty by eight the weird 2D/3D line thing making them look like moving works of art. The significant differences between the show and the real deal, was perhaps their elegance, the way they carry themselves gave them an almost unearthly feel.
I stared into two aqua marine eyes, who stared back a blush creeping up her cheeks. She fidgeted and let a thick strain of pink hair fall in front of her eyes, backing up into Twilight who was behind her mumbling ‘sorry’ cutely. I nearly had a heart attack, a small ‘dawwwwwwww’ escaping my lips.
Twilight took charge, stepping out in front puffing up her chest giving her a proud look.
“Can. You. Understand. Me?” she said slowly, breaking the question into one word sentences. Damn it all to hell, they even sound like their Tv counter parts!
“Well, I would hope so; otherwise we would be in quite a pickle Twilight.” I chuckled, as both of their jaws dropped. This was going to be fun. Twilight recovered fast, a serious look gracing her features.
“H-How do you know m-my name!?”
I shrugged, wincing slightly as it pulled against my ribs, “I know a lot of things, and let’s see I know that you are the wielder of the Element of Magic, your friends names are: Rarity, AJ or Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and little Fluttershy here” she blushed deeper trying to hide behind Twilight, I counted off my fingers as I listed the names of her other friends “Then we have Big Mac, Cherrile, The CMC group Apple Bloom, Sweetie Bell, and Scootaloo, Rose, Daisy, Carrot Top/June Bug, Bon Bon, Lyra, Doctor Hooves, Derpy, DJ Pon-3, Spike… and among others.”
“B-bu-b-b-but!” she spluttered, clear confusion lighting her eyes and a small glimpse of fear, I didn’t want that. No fear, I was a friend.
“Hey, don’t worry! I don’t want to hurt anypony!” she considerably relaxed when I said that, but the confusion was still there, “I know what you’re thinking, ‘who is this guy? Where did he come from? How did he get here?’ and why is he acting so damn calm? I’ll answer them, but before we do… may I have some water?”
I didn’t realize how thirsty I was, my tongue was becoming swollen and dry. Universe travel does take its toll on you. Fluttershy jumped at this, dashing downstairs to get a cup and filling it up with the pump outside, a minute later Fluttershy came back with a full cup of water in her mouth, she gingerly placed the glass on the side table.
I thanked her with as much kindness in my heart could muster, which turned the poor pony’s face red as a tomato as she backed away behind Twilight.
Oh I was going to enjoy staying here.
…
It had been two weeks, since that day the new creature, which Fluttershy now knew as Gabriel appeared in Equestria, a week full of pleasant surprises that she might add and an absolute delight to Twilight and Pinkie Pie disposition. Rainbow, AJ, and Rarity had been a little skeptical as to trusting Gabriel, but at the week’s end they were okay with him living with her.
Plus she couldn’t complain she got a very nice hug three or more times a day, that made her feel all warm inside.
As it turns out Gabe (that’s what he wanted to be called) was a very affectionate person (a word he used to describe himself) he loved giving hugs and receiving them and didn’t feel any inkling of embarrassment when hugging them in public, which she had no objection to.
The populace of Ponyville had met Gabriel with mixed results, and as she feared some with anger but the percentage of them were on par none. But most of them had no opinion on the human (what his race called themselves) visitor and where genially interested in meeting him, Gabe had been polite when meeting everypony. There was only one incident he broke his cool, and that when he saw the village’s gray mail carrier, Derpy.
He had charged the cross eyed mare, enveloping her in a bone crushing hug and swinging her around in a circle before gently placing her on the ground again and coming back with a goofy grin on his face. Derpy was left in a small daze, a ‘What just happened?’ escaping her lips and a small blush on her cheeks.
Twilight had become close to Gabe reasonably fast, because of his intellect the two got along very easily often debating stuff that went over her head, like magic and science. But she felt happy that her friend had somepony to match her wit, she felt that Twilight sometimes felt lonely because she had to slow down considerably to be friends with her and the rest of the gang.
Pinkie Pie and Gabe, within a matter of a day and a half were dubbed ‘The Royal Party Duo’ for their skill in making parties fun, suggesting different styles of parties for Pinkie to try, calling them ‘theme parties’. The hat party she was invited to was hilarious; everypony got their best goofy looking hat and danced the silliest dances, she personally liked when Gabe did the ‘robot’ as he called it, moving as if he had stiff joints.
The village’s DJ, Vinyl Scratch took a liking to him as well when he introduced her to the concept of ‘Dubstep’ using her equipment he made some sample tracks of the gene of music, recording certain phrases he said then proceeded to ‘chop’ them up. It was a little confusing to her, but Vinyl seemed to understand and that made her happy.
Spike was ecstatic as well, Gabe had become sort of a ‘big brother’ to little baby dragon and they talked about everything together, seeing how Spike didn’t really have a lot of male friends. Snips and Snails were more acquaintances to the young dragon anyway, Spike looked a lot happier since now he had somepony to talk to about guy stuff, and she even heard bit and pieces of Spike talking about his affection for Rarity to him and advice to make her happy.
“Look here, Spike do you love her with all your heart?” the small dragon thought for a second, then a hesitant nod for ‘yes’ “Good, but show her that you do love her Spike, small gifts like flowers or gems are nice. But the best gifts are when they are unexpected; something that means greatly to you but is expendable shows that you are willing to sacrifice a great deal to make somepony happy. Rarity is a girl of the material world and physical gifts bring her joy, but when you give something on a deeper level, like being there when she hurts would mean more than its weight in gold.”
The two sat at the edge of small lake until the sun had set, the small dragon resting his head against Gabe’s arm enjoying each other’s company.
This had made Fluttershy’s heart and tummy flutter pleasantly, without her own knowledge of it she had begun to really care for Gabe. In the beginning, Gabe has been slightly distraught with his looks; he had told her that changed drastically from what he originally looked like. He told her that he had short dirty blonde hair and blue eyes with a bit of a beard and glasses, but now he looked strange.
White hair as if the color was sapped from it, and two gray colored eyes that sometimes changed color with his emotions and smooth skin that was clear of blemishes and hairless. It wasn’t him, he told her looking at himself in the mirror. It wasn’t really a bad thing but Fluttershy could understand where he was coming from, she wouldn’t want to not look like herself.
Other small things had upset him, as the familiarity of his own world disappeared within the folds of hers; she had even woken him up from his small cot and had called her ‘mom’ by accident. That really struck a chord with Gabe, he ending up talking to Twilight about the possibility of Universal travel to get back home; she had to reluctantly decline his offer telling him it was impossible, even if she gathered up all the Unicorns in Equestria and beyond the energy needed to break through a Universe barrier would kill them with effort.
Fluttershy didn’t say anything when he realized that there was no way back to his own world. Fresh tears had fallen down his face when he wouldn’t be able to see his family ever again, for all the things she could say none of them held any gravity to his situation. So for her shy temperament she even surprised herself when she hugged him the best she could with her hooves, after a few moments he returned the hug.
The hug had lasted for half an hour, a surprising feeling of selfishness arose within her as he broke way, thanking her. In a confusing way she didn’t want that hug to end, she liked the feel of his skin and the warmth it provided and found herself missing it as he walked away to get ready for bed.
Fluttershy even scared herself she felt a black twinge of jealousy, when Rainbow had tried hitting on Gabe, who was completely oblivious at times didn’t get at what she was hinting at. None the less she had almost yelled at Rainbow telling her to back off ‘her’ guy.
She had to sit down when she thought that, impersonating a tomato trying not to think of the embarrassing thing she almost said out loud. In a way, she half believed herself, she was the one who found him and nursed him back to good health, and she was the one that had insisted him living with her. So technically Gabe was her’s… right?
She shook her head trying to clear her mind of past thoughts, this was a big day! Gabe had agreed on meeting with Princess Celestia to properly introduce himself to the Kingdom of Equestria and become a citizen of Ponyville. For the past few days, Gabe had been writing letters to Princess Celestia introducing himself and his current predicament.
From what she could tell the Princesses of Equestria were very interested in meeting Gabe personally, Princess Luna especially. Having glanced through his letters beforehand, she noticed Gabe and Luna had many similar likes and dislikes and quickly became pen pals, even have him counseling her on certain royal matters she was involved in and dealing with more unpleasant advisors that had a very bias opinion on her because of her darker persona Nightmare Moon kidnaping Princess Celestia.
Apparently his advice was indeed effective, as Princess Luna did gain more favor and interaction in delicate matters Princess Celestia usually handled by herself. Fluttershy could not help but feel that awful twinge of jealousy against Princess Luna.
She had currently just finished making lunch in the small cottage kitchen; she had learned Gabe was like the bears of the Evertree forest having a diverse diet of meats, vegetables, and fruits. But the thought of killing another living thing for food made her faint; she couldn’t do such a thing, Gabe had kindly and willfully foregone meat of any kind whilst living with her and opted for fruits and veggies but she did occasionally catch him drooling slightly when looking at the cows and sheep in old pony Yellow Heart’s pastures.
“G-Gabriel, Lunch is ready.” She called from the doorway of her room; since her cottage was small it only had one bedroom and she didn’t want him to sleep in the living room on the couch as it got deathly cold down there, plus she found the sound of his soft intake of breath comforting when she fell asleep. Even with all the animals that came and went in her house, she had oddly felt lonely at certain points before bed and with him in the room these feelings of loneliness had disappeared.
She looked at him in the cloths Rarity had made for him; they were baggy in certain areas and tight in others and they were plain, but they were better than him walking around naked a thing he felt entirely uncomfortable about. Not only his nakedness had he worried about but hers and friends as well, this had brought a very red blush to her face when he stated that he respected them too much to find himself in the awkward situation of staring at her flank and her friend’s as well for too long.
The Human world, people wore cloths because not only to protect themselves from the weather and show off a sense of fashion, but meet a cultural standard of decency amongst themselves. Believing that the private parts of the body, as the name indicates, remain private from public view.
They had all agreed on keeping their tails down when in his presence, though Rainbow keeps forgetting this rule and continues to tease him with flash of her rear or spouting suggesting sexual innuendos. It made her slightly mad at Rainbow for taking her sexual frustration out on Gabe, even if they were all single (and virgins she admitted, though Rainbow would deny this if it were to come up) it felt slightly mean to tease him with their bottoms.
“Thanks, Shy, you know when the Chariot will arrive today?” he said standing up and stretching, using her shortened nickname he had given her. She liked when he called her that, it made her feel close to him.
“N-no, but I think Twilight does, we’ll go see her after lunch… I don’t think a Chariot would come out this far, so we will have to go to town anyway…” she mumbled as Gabe fell in step with her heading down the steps into the cottage’s kitchen where their food sat upon the counter. For herself she had made a garden salad and a daisy sandwich and a glass of orange juice was in her future as it waited in the fridge, for Gabe he had a garden salad as well with three apples and one banana, and two protein pills (Gabe had recommended these because of the lack of meat in his diet, a ponies metabolism was different from his and he needed a healthy amount protein and fish oils) next to a glass of cool water from her underground spring.
Gabe rubbed his hands together, licking his lips he proceeded to gobble down the morsels of food and drafting the two pills all within a matter of five minutes, she had taken more time of course she took time to enjoy her food. Gabe had a habit of consuming food way too fast when he was excited or nervous, though his excitement wasn’t only his to fret about.
Fluttershy was quite ecstatic to be going to the castle again, and was looking very much forward to be spending the next couple of days in the Castle. Not only was Gabriel going to become a citizen of Ponyville and a sort of Ambassador to the Human race, but a personal advisor of Princess Luna’s court! And that was a big deal as it would seem in the growth of Princess Luna’s influence and power within the castle walls.
…
I almost couldn’t contain myself when I saw Princess Luna; she was majestic and just so beautiful. Again I had to remind myself that this is a formal matter, I was representing my race as well as my pony friends, and perchance I could obtain a hug at a later time. Little Fluttershy stood beside me in the grand twin throne room, a smaller portion of the noble ponies filling the grand hall along with the stoic guards that watched me with stony eyes.
She was stunning in the formal dress she wore, a light creamy blue that reminded me of the morning sky and contrasted well with the beige/creamy yellow color of her fur and pink hair. I was in an odd almost steampunkish version of a black petty coat with slim black slacks and bear footed with a way to small top hat and red undershirt, I couldn’t complain with Rarity’s work she was trying her hardest to find out what works best with my body type. I had looked in a mirror beforehand and thought I looked very handsome, I tried asking Fluttershy what she thought but she broke down into a mumbling stutter a small blush shining through her fur.
Almost had a Fluttershy induced heart attack, which happened frequently throughout the three weeks I’ve been here, it was just so damn cute how some of the ponies mannerisms are. Especially Twilight, when we got on the biological subject of both male and female ponies and their reproductive habits… that had be the cutest thing in the two universes I’ve been to, which was saying something.
The thing was about formal introduction to any country; particularly this (who had not the pleasure of meeting me or my fellow man, preferably a good man) country is the intense tension that followed stepping up to the thrones where the Princesses sat , the small groups of powerful families and clans watched Fluttershy and I with harsh, unforgiving stares. I was indeed surprised to find out that there was such thing as hostility on this small planet, but in an odd way I suspected this was natural in any universe.
As they say a coin has two sides, and isn’t complete without the other.
But poor Fluttershy, she was simply shaking horribly with fear with being not only the center of attention, but the attention of powerful judgmental clans. I placed a comforting hand on her upper back, her small wings quivering strongly. I leaned in to whisper into her ear, which caused an odd reaction in the small pony.
‘When this is all over, how about we go out for ice cream? I’ll buy your favorite, and then we could go see a play or something?’ I whispered, she let out a soft sigh that… almost sounded sensual and shuddered a bit. Or I could be taking it the wrong way and she’s just reaaaaaalllly nervous right now and wasn’t expecting my whisper.
The proceeding was on borderline boring, but I kept a straight face all the while trying to calm Fluttershy down and was almost hyperventilating on me. I almost growled at a one of the clan heads, for this look of utter disgust and disappointment towards Fluttershy who was trying her best to look brave. My shoulder itched, when I directed my anger at him, in which he turned away haughtily.
I introduced myself with a flourish bow, then taking the innovative about explaining my predicament, who I was, and my race, and my wishes to become a citizen of Equestria and an Ambassador to my people when I was able to establish communication with them (to how I would do this came to me later on) explaining that over a couple million Humans already knew of their existence, because of a unique ability to certain people like Lauren Faust to catch images and ideas from different worlds and not realize they even existed, but create almost scary accurate stories of their daily lives.
Those who believed or liked and supported in these stories had become devoted fans of their race, each (which I dearly hoped) wanted nothing but the best for them and the mane six to grow strong. Which left me on a positive note from the two Princesses when I told them I was among one of those millions that supported them, Luna stepped down from her throne. I knew what was happening next, but the others… not so much.
The letters between me and Luna were kept hidden from the others, outside of the mane six nopony knew what she would say.
“As a Princess and a lover of different cultures, I would like to formally extend my hoof for a seat at my council and perhaps a personal advisor when you have become more familiar with our world.” She offered her hoof to me. On a political scale this was huge! It wasn’t only a bold move, but one that could have serious complications later on if things didn’t bode well for us both. But I was confident from my two years in government classes in highschool to know a bit or two about politics. There was a small gasp throughout the audience, well no turning back now (and not to mention the urge to scream ‘FOR THE LUNAR REPUBLIC!!’ as I did so) I shook her hoof.
“I look forward with working with you Princess and all of Equestria” I said shaking her warm hoof firmly.
Afterward the ceremony was completed and I had a few days before I had to run around filling out naturalization forums and going to the national treasury for a bank account and taxation information.
The small talk with Celestia had been short and sweet, congratulating me for already finding myself in the royal court and thanking me for becoming a citizen of Equestria. Celestia had even leaned in toward me while Fluttershy was looking the other way.
‘Hurt her and you’ll deal with me and her friends’ in a cool but very threating voice, my face was set in stone when I replied back the seriousness of it causing Celestia to flinch.
‘I would destroy and kill anypony who would try to hurt her; you have nothing to worry about.’
In all honesty, I would.
A little bit later…
Ice cream, who would have thought It would be Fluttershy’s favorite snack, I always thought it would have been something more healthy but as it turns out Fluttershy had a bit of a sweet tooth on her. She defiantly consumed fewer sweets than Pinkie Pie did, but on the other hand Pinkie wasn’t a normal pony and consumed the stuff like a dehydrated man in a desert next to a lake does. Which I suspected she was on a permanent sugar high, based on the way she acted and the fast metabolism she had puts her out quick sometimes.
She only ate sweets when she could afford them, which by any means wasn’t a lot and restrained herself greatly to eat better and home grown foods. This time it was my treat, and working in Town Hall and at the Carousel Bouquet had earned me a few Bits to call my own for occasions just like this.
Fluttershy looked a lot better once we got outside and on the streets, we were still in our formal wear so we were still stiff from standing around so much, but none the less she looked visibly more relaxed than in the Throne room.
Having asked a random citizen where a local ice cream parlor was, he directed us to go down to more blocks till we reached Berry Cream’s Ice cream and Shakes which was a privately run business from a long line of ice cream makers, much like the Apple family was to apple farming. It was small and had a slightly retro deign similar to the malt shops of the early fifties, it was inviting and it had a small park across the road which visibly brightened Fluttershy’s mood considerably.
I told her to wait out here in the park (which had a surprising amount of privacy for a park, trees where everywhere) while I got the ice cream, moving to pick the change out of my pocket.
Out of forty major cities in Equestria, as Equestria was relatively big, crime rates were unnervingly low. In huge cities such as Manehatten the biggest crime report was petty thievery and vandalism in small suburbs outside the city limits by small group of young rebel ponies who thought themselves above the law, while in pony layman terms these crimes were nothing to bat an eyelash at (ponies did not like when others steal their possessions more so than humans apparently, thus the guards were to take these fillies seriously).
There were the occasional murder, rape, ponyslaughter and hate crimes present in big cities, from what I disturbingly learned later on was the fan made story dubbed ‘Cupcakes’ did happen but not with our beloved Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash. How the story goes is a young baker, earth pony by the name of Sugar Sprinkles and loved cupcakes to the near point of disturbed obsession and made them constantly with different flavors of all kinds, it happen without warning and there was no outward sign of madness within her mind but she had one day invited her best friend over and simply murdered the young Pegasus, draining her of all blood and using her body as a mix for her twisted cupcakes, this occurred three more times before she was caught in the middle of disposing a body and was arrested and after the shrinks dubbed her ‘to mentally unstable to continue in society and or a mental ward because of violent tendencies toward everypony’ and was beheaded a few months later.
But overall peace was so prevalent, it seemed to dull the instinctive nature to be paranoid or watchful of others.
As such I did not notice the three shady looking characters heading directly toward Fluttershy the moment I left her line of sight into the ice cream store.
…
Fluttershy, while not having the best of days but was enjoying her time with Gabriel, who noticing her nervous breakdown in the formal precession offered to take her out for ice cream. This had her imagining a wide range of small time romantic fantasies afterward with the oddly handsome human, leaving her quiet as they walked toward a local ice cream bar.
She remembered the soothing touch of his hand on her upper back while her epiphany was leaving her with a dwindling supply of oxygen to breathe properly. She was never good in crowds, even when she was younger and the awful looks she received today did nothing to her self-confidence but she tried to put on a brave face for Gabriel, he was her tenet after all and it was only right that she was present.
It made her blush deep red when she found herself under a stare of loathing and disapproval from one of the Clan heads and noticed Gabe staring back intensely, even going as so far as to step in front of her and uttering a low growl while Celestia went over the formalities of becoming a citizen of Equestria. It made a warm fluttering feeling in her tummy and even warmer feeling in her heart when he did that.
When she saw the three shady and mean looking ponies walking up to her now, she shrunk back trying to get them to go away by making herself invisible as possible. Out of the three the one in the middle gave an awful smirk, his cold eyes drilling into hers as they kept coming. In all honesty she had never been as scared in all her life when the grey one pulled a small sharp blade from a grubby jacket pocket, the one with the awful smirk and a dull orange colored pony surrounding her.
“ey, girlie, looking for a good time? We promise not ta hurt you too much heh heh” the one with the awful smirk said, his voice guttural and nasal. The others laughed too both of them sounding both stupid and evil at the same time, the grey one sneaking up on her and pressing the dirty knife to her side. It was sharp that was sure.
While this did sound a small bit cliché in the terms of a human mugging, the threat was very real to Fluttershy having never dealt with a situation like this. She had heard of muggings and how ponies did die from them, this scared her greatly.
She was now part of a situation she could possibly die from! So like any shy and timid person or pony would do in this situation. She screamed…
It was short lived when she was smacked in the face.
Hard.
She had to blink a few times to clear away the small colored dots that invaded her eyesight, not really feeling the sting of her cheek which was bruising and swelling slightly already. Things were happening to quick as she felt her cloths tear and some god awful tongue licking her face.
She felt sick.
And tears fell.
…
Despite all the paper work that was coming in through the NTB cables about a rouge human in their mists, the local gods that had jurisdiction over the peaceful world of the ponies were interested the young human. Not to mention his universes head god breathing down their necks to keep him safe in terms of UE value and because she a had a soft spot for the American kid from VA, which was rare for head gods, but that’s how you get prophets I suppose.
They were scared shitless with what happened next, Fluttershy’s mugging and violation wasn’t in the Fate Threads, and a lot of things were compensated in the Fate threads. This was completely out of the blue, and the Goddess of Innocence was screaming her head off to get an intervening order filled out before it was too late, Fluttershy was one of her favorites and she wasn’t about to let some random punk off the street violate her.
When an explosion happened, physically small in scale in the pony world but so huge on the other planes of existence it could be felt through the entire universe, even Amaterasu felt the hairs on the back of her neck rise.
Only the older long lived and universe traveling gods practically had heart attacks when they felt the ripple. It was a Guardian Class.
According to reports of Elder Gods and Demons, the Guardian Class was an extremely rare class of artificial gods only having sighted one in perhaps over fifty-nine quintillion years of service to the Multiverse, and now another one appears.
The Guardian Class vessel’s main purpose in their prolonged lives is as the name suggest act as a guardian to those who they hold dear and as they grow older the very universe itself from anything and everything that would wish harm to its structure (in other words bring equilibrium to the universe). That means any god who did the universe wrong big or small will be punished and or destroyed under their hands.
Dark Elder gods fear them practically because of what they call ‘The End’s March’ was the Guardian’s muttering but slow march toward them as they attempt to stop them with everything they had. The universe it seems to favor them greatly and protects them from all harm making them nearly invincible and granting them access to its own personal reserves of UE, one would expect such protection for being an Agent of the Universe.
The downside was that they do not live very long, in god terms dying very young. About five hundred years or so, but long enough to right the wrongs of the Universe its tenets did to it. Another downside is they cannot leave the universe they are attached to; doing so would destroy them in all sense of the word ‘destroyed’.
In another point of the more critical gods, was this Guardian class did not exist but instead was freak products of the ‘paths of in between’ much like a well-known artificial and ‘true’ god types, such as Noble and his ten charges. Another human directed from the young mind of an author on earth who met the supposed protector of the Multiverse also called ‘Void’ as he was sucked into a small rip in the universe and gained incredible powers that rivaled Creator gods (the top dogs in god classes, ones who directed the flow a young universe and shaping it to their wills)
But what they felt was indeed powerful and nothing to shake their heads at.
So when the gods looked down upon the small Ice cream shop in Canterlot, Equestria. What they saw scared them.
…
Imagine waking up in the sun, then jumping directly into a pool of lava after you had your morning breakfast which was consisted of nice helping of solar radiation and cool glass of atomic lemonade which you highly suspected it was actually atomic orange juice but couldn’t quite tell.
I certainly didn’t expect the immense heat in my arm burst forward and the strange glowing and the low grade C2 explosion that happened shortly afterward, not to mention the unbearable desire to destroy everything that felt wrong in the stranger sense of the word.
I have no idea even to this day how fasted I moved, but I was sure there was no (in this world) device capable of keeping up to measure the accurate numbers, but for now let’s keep it to pretty damn fast.
One moment I was ordering my ice cream and Fluttershy’s when I suddenly knew she was in danger and the rest just happened by itself.
I was flying to a scene that itself was horrifying, three ponies gathered around Fluttershy, her cloths torn to shreds tears streaming down her bruised and swollen face and small thin cuts of red along her body as she cowered against a tree, a white substance tailing from her lips.
One word entered my mind as I knew what was happening, and something I never would of thought would happen here of all places.
Rape
My rage was complete, an absolute much like the Kelvin scale of absolute zero, and I would destroy them completely and enjoy ripping their souls to shreds. Even the God of Rage cowered behind his desk because it could be felt everywhere.
With everything slowed down I walked over to the three, if I could have looked at myself I would have seen a blank expression on my face my head tilted down as two glowing orbs of burning light issued forth from my eyes, the symbol of the Multiverse engraved on my right shoulder representing the major energies a Universe is made of glowing just as brightly as my eyes.
(What I really do is kept to the barest detail, as there was a lot of blood involved and I don’t like speaking about it)
I grabbed the pony closet pony to my person, which was a dull orange one; I lifted him up with one hand by the neck almost laughing how easy this was, and the grim pleasure I was about to enjoy. I threw him upward which he slowly kept gliding up; I jumped up as well and preformed a spinning kick in the air.
There was a pleasant crunch. And I knew about every bone in his body was broken, not even waiting for him to slowly move away, I let an odd sensation wash over my hand and it glowed an iridescent green color and grabbed him again. It was like I grabbed him physically but instead of his body I pulled a green fire like substance from him, I knew this was his soul and it was just as disgusting as I thought it would have been, dull green with mixes of puss like blackness oozing from dark flame.
I crushed it within my hand, liking the way it screamed as pressed down the center of the flame then it broke into a hissing brown liquid and faded away. I felt no remorse but a deep seated pleasure from destroying this scum of living tissue. I moved onto the middle one next which I could feel was the leader of the group; he was a colorless brown and blue eyes that seemed to take pleasure in hurting others.
How wrong he was to pick Fluttershy as his target, I would take my time with him later, so I moved on to the grey one who had a knife between his teeth, small droplets of Fluttershy’s blood dripped from the blade’s edge. How many ponies fell to that small knife? I did not know but this would be his last, and with his own blade to.
I wrenched it from his teeth some of his teeth coming with it as well, I performed an upward kick that would of made Jet Li proud it connecting with his jaw perfectly, I watched with morbid fascination as his neck broke very slowly. The green glow around my hand covered the small blade and with a downward thrust with both hands, I stabbed his soul straight into the ground where it squealed and oozed the brown liquid before fading away leaving the blade where it stood in the dirt.
The ring leader was the last one and the one I was going to take the most pleasure in killing. I looked over to Fluttershy, such fear in her eyes, such hurt.
The question was how to kill him. I took a moment, thinking about it. I decided that dismemberment was the best choice. As his pain wouldn’t catch up with him until I slowed down so there wasn’t any real reason to prolong his death.
Much like Lego pieces, his limbs came off fairly easy. I started with his back legs, and yes even his third leg I ripped off tossing it behind me with all ceremony as I would a common weed being pulled from the garden. I felt like I should slow down and watch him beg for mercy that would never come, but I didn’t want Fluttershy to experience the death of another pony’s life before her eyes, she was traumatized enough. This would take weeks and weeks of rehabilitation to get her back into the real world and happy enough to speak again. I cursed every cruel god who decided this and a promise of retribution for it.
That my friends was a no mere idle threat either.
I wanted this to be over.
Having removed every limb I moved on to simply ripping off his head, then reaching into the decapitated body and crushing his squealing soul.
Wow, did I feel like a happy monster. I cannot explain for the life of me why it felt so good to do this to the three ponies, but it did. I felt no real wave of sorrow and regret that accompanied killing another thinking, living being but an odd satisfaction that I rid the universe of something bad and it was just saying a job well done to me.
As warm and fuzzy the feeling was I shrugged it off kneeling before the slow moving Fluttershy and odd look of fear and confusion gracing her bruised face. No doubt at her present time the orange pony was just about to be lifted up from the ground and have his bones broken.
It was like a whisper in the back of my head I just knew how to slow myself down, I gathered Fluttershy in a gentle hug, delicately redirecting her head onto my chest so she wouldn’t see the blood that would splatter.
I breathed in deep and let go of the power.
The world sped up to normal standards of its location in the solar system, air seemed to move again and the sounds of commerce outside the park attacked with vigor.
What happened with the three rapist ponies, happened so fast it looked like it happen at the same time. (Don’t ask me what happened, because I just don’t know what when wrong, with my verity of words)
The orange one exploded into a red mist as he reached his apex of upward flight, only an insanely high impact force could do such a thing and I thought my kick was relatively weak considering I had no martial arts training to speak of.
The grey one’s head snapped back breaking his neck and possibly his spine as he was in an odd angle when he crumpled to the floor.
The ring leader suddenly dispersed into a fountain of blood as his arms, legs and head were wrenched from his body then flung a good ways where his corpse would bleed silently. Splatters of the Equine race’s blood doused my back as I held a shaking Fluttershy.
The world felt right arms wrapped around this little pony.
…
Fluttershy had receded into herself shutting herself to the outside world and she didn’t think she would ever rid herself of the disgusting taste in her mouth.
She didn’t have a choice in the matter but she was forced to do something that extremely close lovers only do, and she did not love these ponies at all. Deep down, within the darkest part of her heart she wanted them to die to expire where they stood and burn.
They had forced themselves on her, threatening to kill her if she didn’t ‘please’ them with her mouth and then her body. The grey pony enjoyed cutting her lightly on places that wouldn’t bleed too much but hurt all the time, she had wanted to fade away and never show herself again to the public eye.
In her few desperate cries for help, she thought of Gabriel wanting him to save her from this all too real nightmare. She wanted somepony to love her, and hold her dear when it was her first time but it seemed the cruel twist of fate would deny her wish and she was to be used and left broken.
When they had finished with her mouth, she spat the horrid liquid onto the ground and crawled, backing into a tree, trying to make herself into a small ball.
Then Gabriel was there, a warm lifeline surrounding her, fresh tears welled up and she cried into his chest. She didn’t know how he got here, but in her state she didn’t care and all she wanted to do was go home.
She smelt blood on him, scared he was hurt she tried to move, but he wouldn’t let her holding her tighter to his person.
“shh, it’s alright… everything is all right…” He whispered soothingly rocking back and forth with her; she didn’t realize how bad she was shaking, her hooves were quivering violently against Gabriel’s chest. She cried, hard. Releasing all her pent up fear and exhaustion into a long wails and hiccupping sobs.
She cried until she fell asleep.
This had to be the worst day of her life.
……
A/N: aww well shit… In a place called Equestria is on hold because of the lack of reviews its receiving and being perfectionist I don’t think I’ll be able to continue it unless I have some motivation *sigh*
Things will get better
This was a cute Idea I had in my head after ironically seeing a perverted picture of Fluttershy… don’t ask how I got all this from that, it just happens man.
Anyway I’m sending this to Fimfiction.net too after I submit this this to Fanfiction. I mixed it up a bit and change my usual writing style I hoped you liked it. Tell me if you want me to continue this style.
Next chap: Recovery and Eternal Love!
Thanks and Review!
May your blade stay sharp my friends.
Katana001 out.
