"Talking."
Thinking.

Barry was sleeping peacefully in the pile hey … that is until a loud child like scream woke him up with a big start.
“Aaaahhhhh!” Barry jumped at the sound of a scared kid… or what he thought was a kid. The thing that screamed was a very tiny horse with pale yellow fur, a bright red mane, huge orange eyes, and a pink ribbon in its hair. Barry took a step back trying to remember what happened last night until it hit him like a train. He was at some barn that was owned by a talking pony that had a family. Then Barry saw this pony was shorter than the other one so he deduced that they were either mother and daughter or sisters.
Wait wasn’t it a dream? Why did I not wake up in the med-lab? Or at least a hospital? The same thought kept running in The speedsters mind while the little pony stopped screaming when the doors to the barn burst open reveling the same orange female pony from last night and a tall red one which came up to Barry’s chest.
“What the hays going on in…here… oh dear Celestia.” AJ said. She face hoofed at her error of forgetting about the Flash.
“Sis what the hay is this thing? I was just walking in here then it was there sleeping on the hay! I screamed and it woke up!” said what Barry now knew was AJ’s little sister.
“Well sis he’s a lost creature that I found trying to steal some apples last night so I invited him to stay here and in exchange he would help the family getting ready for the summer sun celebration. Sorry for not telling you about him Apple Bloom and Big Macintosh I just… well forgot.” The small pony now had stars in her eyes as she examined Barry. Apple Bloom rushed towards him and started to climb and examine the red speedster from all angles.
“What are you? Where did you come from? Why do your claws look so strange? Where is your cutie mark? What is your name? Can you talk?” she shot out more questions the Barry could even hope to answer. Apple Jack knowing the confusion Barry was going through came and caught the young filly.
“My name is Flash, I’m a Meta-Human, these are hands not claws, yes I can talk, and what the hell is a cutie mark?” the ponies tilted their heads in confusion at why he didn’t know what a cutie mark was. At least the filly and red stallion had confusion AJ lost hers the moment she remembered the last night conversation.
“We can explain that later but for now there’s been a change in the agreement we made last night about if we let you stay you help out. That’s because my family the Apple clan is coming here sooner than I thought and I don’t want to explain a bipedal creature helping out around the farm.” With the Summer Sun Celebration in two days she really wanted to concentrate on that. But right now she needed to hide Flash before the Apples come and see him.
“Wait let me guess you want me hide somewhere?” she nodded in response yet he continued before she had a chance to reply. “If you have a lot of family members than I can’t hide on the farm or in the barn or someone will find me for sure… is there any abandoned buildings that hasn’t been used in a long time?” all three went in deep thought about what he said for maybe a minute or two before Big Mac raised his hoof.
“The Oaks library.” He said loud quick and simple. Both the red stallions’ siblings gave a small smile because they knew that place was the perfect spot for hiding him. That place hasn’t been used in years.
“Good thinking Big Mac. Bad news how are we getting him to the library without getting the attention from other pony folk?” asked little Apple Bloom tapping her hoof on the floor board of the barn.
“I think I have a conclusion for that but just to be sure can you hand me one of those sacks Apple Jack?” she did as told and Barry went to work testing the fiber of the sack. A small smirk came to his face as he went on to jump in the sack and to the surprise of the ponies cover his entire body in the sack. Apple Bloom had to know how he did that.
“What… how did you do that Flash?” they heard an inaudible sound coming from it before he took his head out. Seeing the confusion on Barry decided to explain.
“I said that this bag is made of a highly stretchable fiber that can both stretch and hold a good chunk of weight. So if you guys get your wagon that I saw around here last night then I can get in the bag and you guys can take me to the library and dump me off. I’ll be able to handle myself from there.” And then as if by magic Barry was in the bag that was being transported in the wagon.
………………………………………………………………………..ten minutes later………………………………………………………….
All was going well for the traveling group of Ponies and one Meta-Human. They made it close to the library and had it in sights. Yup all was going according to plane… until four new multicolored ponies caught up to the wagon to talk with their friend Apple Jack. At the sight of them made all the color from AJ’s face go pale… well as pale as you can get when you have orange fur.
“Hey AJ what up? Why you, Big Mac, and Apple are bloom heading toward the old tree with that bag?” great just the question AJ wanted no more than to avoid completely.
The pony who asked had a pale blue coat and rainbow color mane. Her cutie mark had a storm cloud with a single thunder bolt. The mares name was (totally not tied to her hair and cutie mark in any) Rainbow Dash. She is a very prideful and determined mare that also had a very cocky and dick lick… I mean like attitude.
Next to her was another mare with a bright pink coat and a darker mane. Her cutie mark had some colorful balloons. Her name (Also not connected to her color and cutie mark in anyway.) Pinkie Pie. The fun loving hyperactive forth wall breaker that I will erase from this story if she so much as thinks of talking to us.
And next to that pink one was another mare. (Just so you know there are no males here except Big Mac… poor Mac.) This one had a creamy yellow coat and pinkish purple mane. Her cutie mark had some butterflies on it. Her name is (Okay you guys know that whatever you name your kid in this world that name will mean what they grow up to be.) Flutter Shy. The kind and compassion mare that has a deep love for all animals… except big scary dragons.
The last and finally mare had a white coat and purple mane. She had some diamonds and gems as her cutie mark. The name of this particular mare is (okay really what the F### is it with Hasbro and their naming system. I mean come on! The only two names they made that I don’t think are tied to how the characters look and act like are Megatron and Optimus Prime and both are transformers!) Rarity. The fusionist/diamond hunter who hates getting dirty… well I have no half assed joke about her.
“W-Well you see girl’s t-this here I-is some books that we were given p-pe-permission to take to t-the library.” AJ lied… sort of. All four of them instantly knew she was trying to pull something over their heads. They were about to say something but the fashion queen beat them to it.
“Ok tell the truth darling we know when you try to lie.” AJ never did lie to good mostly because of the way she was raised. She looked around to see of any other pony was nearby. AJ was glad to see it was only her and her friends and family.
“Okay girls I’ll tell ya but only when we get inside the library.” They all nodded and the wagon with the now less than happy but quiet cargo went moving once more.
They had some trouble getting in the tree library but after some “Pinkie being Pinkie” moments she pulled a key from her mane answering her friends with. “What thing?” (Seriously Pinkie I will get rid of you if you do more wall breaking and no more use of this magical space where you can pull up an infinite amount of… well anything!) But like an annoying pink pony she is she completely ignored me knowing that I was completely bluffing and couldn’t get rid of her unless I wanted a full blown Pinkie Pie fan club on my ass.
“Well girls now that we are here I’ll like for you guys to meet somepony.” With AJ’s words pinkie jumped at the prospect of meeting new people and having a chance to throw whoever it was a party.
“Now girls he may look… odd but don’t and I mean don’t scream. Do you understand?” they all nodded not really expecting much of what AJ was saying. She moved toward the bag and taped it with her hoof. And to the surprise of the girls the bag moved and stood but that’s not what surprised them what surprised them was that it stood taller than everypony there even Big Mac. The top came undone and the bag fell. What now stood there was a… well the four girls had no idea of what to call it.
“Hey AJ why is there four more ponies in here than I thought there was supposed to be.” Barry already knew because the bag stopped noise from getting out not coming in. But before she could give an answer a loud… very loud scream. But it didn’t come from any of the ponies inside the tree. No it came from outside the library.
“Help me please help me!” unable to ignore such a plea Barry ran out of the Library which when he did found out it was also a tree. He looked toward the sound of the plea to find a dark blue pony with a darker blue mane being chased into town by an all too familiar creature. It was the exact same wooden wolf he encountered when he first got here. (Well same species different wolf.) Flash sped off toward the wood wolf and young colt. Easily passing the wolf he grabbed the colt and in a red blur the foul was some blocks away looking shocked at what just transpired.
“Well you are like the wolf I saw but not the same one. Say can you talk like these ponies can.” Flash asked ducking under the beast’s claw. The Wood Wolf as Barry called it was moving his claw in an arc slash hoping to catch blood. But to its surprise all it caught was air. It looked at the wooden paw then all around trying to find the red demon. Little did the Wood Wolf know that Barry was closer than it thought. Moving at the same speed as the wolf Barry was right behind it moving his body just like it was. Right after thirty seconds the wolf felt something tap its back turning it saw a red blur and something hard hit its face sending it five and a half feet away.
“Ow okay that hurt… not as much as the metal my school bully could turn into but still pretty painful.” He said to no one in particular. The wolf got up and its face was pretty much self explanatory of the feeling it had for Barry. Rage and anger was in the green eyes of the beast.
“Look I don’t want to hurt an animal so go back to the forest and I want make you into a pile of fire wood.” The wolf didn’t listen and ran after the speedster with unlimited malice. Barry was caught off guard by the approach and was hit square in the chest by the claws. He was lucky that he was hit by paw and not the nails or he could have a huge gash in his torso. With a loud roar the Wood Wolf rushed the still recovering speedster.
“Well this is going to take some time.” He said before rolling out of the way of the Wood Wolfs hind paw. Barry stood on both legs and sped around the wolf in a circle if he ran fast enough to confuse the wolf he could come up with a real plan to get rid of it.
“Leave that poor thing alone!” The Wood wolf took full advantage of Barry’s distraction by whipping him with its tail. The speedster quickly recovered from the cheap shot only to just barley doge a slash attack. Rushing well out of the range of the Wood Wolf the Flash looked toward where the voice that told him to stop. To his mild shock Barry saw the same yellow pony that he saw at the library. She was coming his way along with the other ponies he’s seen.
“What the hay do you think you’re doing partner? Trying to fight a timberwolf all be yourself is just plain idiotic!” she practically yelled in his face all the shock of what he was seemed to disappear with their worry but through all the talk he kept his stare on the yellow one.
“Hey you. Yellow pony why did you tell me to stop?” Everyone or everypony as they say was confused. Then Flutter Shy muttered under her breath so no could hear her.
“Sorry could you speak up and tell me before Fido over there starts… oh never mind he’s on his way here. Now if you will please excuse me I have to distract him and figure out a plane to get him out of the town.” He was about to speed off but before he could a rainbow blur was already on her way towards the Wolf only to be swatted twelve feet away.
“Ow… that hurt you overgrown stick.” Rainbow Dash as cocky as very went back to try and attack the wolf only to have the same result. She tried again and again but the real pain in her pride wasn’t the fact that she kept getting swatted away. No it was that the Timberwolf had his sights on Flash as Apple Jack called him. Her latest attempt to get the wolf to actually notice her ended up in RD getting grabbed by the neck and launched her at the Flash.
“Whoa she’s really determined to hit him isn’t she?” asked the scarlet speedster as he jumped up in the air to catch RD. he landed and dropped her near the other ponies.
“Yeah she can be stubborn like that. Thanks for catching her.” She failed to notice the wolf was running on all fours to their position. Being the only one to see this Barry used his speed to grab everypony and get them safe so he could fight the beast alone. When the Timberwolf saw them leave in a red blur instead of green his eyes now turned blood red.
