Lost: More Than Just A Friend...

After finishing the breakfast my new friends had made me, I walked off to Fluutershys' cottage. She said that 'HE' wouldn't come until 10:00, so I decided to arrive five minutes early. I knocked on the door. The door slowly creaked open, then opened widely. Fluttershy invited me in.

"'HE' arrives in a few minutes. I hope you don't mind if things start to get, um, strange."

I raised an eyebrow. "Strange?"

She looked back at the clock. "I mean, crazy, like Pinkie Pie, but crazier."

There was a knock on the door. Fluttershy went to go open it, but nobody was there.

I stared at the door as she closed it. When she did, something caused me to fall out of my chair. A loud, sing-song voice yelled in my ear, "I'm BAAAAAAAAACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I got up onto my feet and turned around. Nobody. I felt something tap on my should. I knew this trick. Pinkie pulled it on me before. "I know you're behind me! I've met Pinkie Pie long enough to know this trick!" I laughed out as I turned around. A strange, dragon, bear, snake, thing was behind me.

I did the only thing I thought of. "AAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!"

He responded. "AAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!"

We both screamed in unison.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I was frozen in fear as he started laughing! "What are you?" I asked this, this, this thing.

I heard his voice in my ear, but his mouth wasn't moving! "The better question is, Who am I?" I turned to my left and saw him hanging upside down behind me! I looked in front of me. He wasn't there, he somehow teleported behind me! But how? I was watching him, but he was behind me! Unless, it was some sort of illusion, but how? The one in front of me, or the one that was, was actually there, right? I should stop thinking about it so much. I'm getting a headache just thinking about it!

Fluttershy walked up to us and greeted each other to us. "Roe, this is Discord. Discord, meet Roe, the savior of Equestria! He saved all of us from Queen Chrysalis!"

Discord started to circle me, inspecting my body. "Hmm, I can't seem to figure out what you are, and I know almost every type of living thing in Equestria!"

I replied with a blank and simple comment. "That's because I don't come from Equestria."

He just stared at me for a moment. "Oh, oh, I know what you are!!! You are..................a MONKEY!!!!"

I raised an eyebrow. "Not exactly. I mean, my kind originated from apes thousands of years ago, but I wouldn't say that I'm a monkey. You see, I am a human. Not a monkey."

His eager smile turned into a not-so-happy-frown. "I see." He snapped his fingers and with a *POOF*, he was to my right. "I would be so much happier if you were a monkey. Oh well," He snapped his fingers again, and a glass of water appeared in his hand. "As you know, I'm Discord. I'm a draconequus, a dragon that is mixed with all types of animals! See? Horse head, deer antler, antelope horn, horse leg, reptile leg, snake tail, lion paw, bird arm, bird wing, dragon wing, all of the correct parts of a draconequus in their respectful places!"

He drank the glass and ate the water afterward!!! "How is that possible?  You drank the glass, and ate the water! It's supposed to be you drink water and DON'T eat the glass! This doesn't make any sense."

He came from out of nowhere behind me, when he was just in front of me, and wrapped his lion arm around my shoulder. "Oh, what fun is there in making sense? What's wrong with a little, 'Chaos'?"

Fluttershy stepped forward and glared at him angrily. "Now, Discord. What did we say about making chaos?"

Discord stood up, lowering his head and kicked at the ground. "Oh I know. I was just trying to exaggerate myself, that's all."

Fluttershy flew up to his head and raised it up so he'd look at her. "It's alright. I just don't want him to think you'll be any trouble, okay?"

He smiled a bit and nodded his head.

We continued talking a bit and getting to know each other more when I heard three loud screams. They sounded like like fillies.

All of the sudden, the earth shook. Pictures fell off the shelves, and we fell to the ground. When the world around us stopped shaking, the window beside the couch burst into hundreds of shards as three young, familiar little fillies were thrown into the house. They were badly bruised and one of them had a huge cut on their hind leg.

Applebloom, Sweetiebelle, and Scootaloo all ran up to us, telling us what happened. It was hard to understand however, because they were all talking at the same time, explaining different parts of the story. At the end, they all just cried, "HELP!!!"

A large Timberwolf burst through the wall that the crusaders flew in through. The Timberwolf wasn't your average Timberwolf. It was almost as tall as Discord, and had branches sticking out of his back like mad. Its' eyes were blood red. It also had blood oozing from its' mouth.

As I reached for my katana blade, the beast took in a deep breath, and let out a sonic roar. The earth shook like mad, and I, like always, blacked out.

The next thing I knew, I was in a hospital bed, hooked up to a heart monitor. I looked over to my left. My left arm was wrapped up in bandages.

I tried to sit up, but I winced and fell back down as pain shot through my back. There was a knock at the door.

"Come in!" I yelled.

The door opened slightly. Someone came in, moving backwards. I heard a muffled talking when they came in, as if they were speaking to somebody else. I could make out a mint green coat, but the door covered the face. When I saw whose face it was, I smiled. Lyra came in, carrying a small bag in her mouth. She walked up to the table next to me and set the bag down. It was about the size of a money pouch, but was filled with candy.

Lyra smiled a bit. "Me and Bon Bon made you some sweets. We thought it would be a good idea, since you were in the hospital and the other side of Ponyville is being attacked by mutated Timberwolves and all."

My eyes shot open. "What?!?!"

She kept acting like t was no big deal as she continued. "Yeah, but the royal guard and Fang has it covered. Not much else is goin' on."

Before I could even speak, a Timberwolf, same as last time, burst in through the wall. The beast threw Lyra to the other side of the room.

I sat in a somewhat upright position and screamed as hard as I could, both in fear, and the because of the pain surging through my back.

When I heard a low growl coming from behind me and felt something breathing down my neck, I froze. I turned around and was face to face with the mutated Timberwolf. I tried my hardest to scream for help, but all the came out was a slight whimper. I was helpless in the state I was in. No katana, injured back and arm, and a bloodthirsty Timberwolf right in front of me, ready to strike at any moment. Before it could, a familiar grey husky shot out from behind the beast in front of me and started tearing chunks of wood out from the back of its' neck.

As the monster fell onto the floor, dead, I yelled out to my favorite husky, "Atta boy, Fang!!!"

Then, as the creatures' dead body started twitching, I fell down to the left side of the bed and covered my ears as Fang pulled Lyra out from the ceiling rubble that had fallen onto her head, knocking her out, and dragged her behind the bed with us. The Timberwolves' dead body started twitching much more violently now. By the time Lyra had awoken, the beast blew up in a fiery explosion filling almost the entire room that had almost burnt her mane.

She looked up from behind the bed and stared in awe at the scorched hospital room. "What the hay happened?"

I got up from behind the bed also, with Fang helping me up, and looked at the scorched body as well. "The thing blew up. Hey look!" I picked up my pouch of candy that miraculously survived the explosion. "Your little gift survived!" I looked inside. The candies were all still in one piece. Lyra giggled a bit when I unwrapped a small piece of gum and placed it inside her mane.

She used her horn to pick the wrapper out.

I looked at her as I continued chewing the tasty artificial orange flavored gum. "Tastes great! When you said Bon Bon could make almost every type of candy I thought you were exaggerating!"

She started laughing as I acted like nothing had happened five minutes ago.

"What? I asked her.

She managed to stop laughing for long enough to speak. "You're acting like nothing just happened in here when a large Timberwolf just exploded in this room!!!" She couldn't continue another second without laughter and tears started rolling down her cheeks from laughing so hard.

I stopped chewing for a second. "You, have NO ROOM TO SPEAK!!! YOU WERE ACTING ALL CASUAL WHILE YOU WERE TELLING ME ABOUT THE TIMBERWOLVES, AND SAID, AND I QUOTE, "not much else is goin' on" BEFORE YOU WERE ATTACKED BY ONE!!!!" I yelled between laughs, trying not to at least giggle and act serious.

She blushed for a second. "Right....oops...."

I facepalmed right after she said "oops" so hard, I almost bruised my nose.
