The Harmony Theft
Time to pay the price
Previous ChapterNext ChapterSpike woke up and saw Twilight asleep. He decided to get up and make her breakfast. It would be a nice little thing for her. She did come back from dealing with that nasty thing that almost took her powers away. He made his way down the stairs, and heard shifting on the couch. He went to see what it was and his mouth hung wide open. It was that thing! It was here! Rage filled him. He hated it so much. He made White break Raritys heart. Sure, he hated Whites guts, but still, uncool! He yelled and jumped on it.
*****************************************************************************************************************
I awoke to something attacking me. "SHIT!" was all I could scream before I felt scratching and clawing. I heard hoof steps coming down the stairs.
"SPIKE!" Twilight yelled. "GET OFF RYAN!" She used her magic to float him off of me.
"LET ME GO! I-" He stopped. "Ryan?"
"You-gahh! Called?" I sat up holding a big cut on my arm. I looked at Spike.
"It has a name?"
"It," Twilight said. "Is a he and he is a human, not a thing."
"That'll wake you up better than coffee." I said. I still held on to the cut on my arm.
"What is it doing here!"
"HE," Twilight corrected. "Is our guest for the time being. He will be sharing that place for us until we find something for him."
"Can't he live outside?"
"I have already done that since my dad kicked me out of the house at age ten." He looked at me.
"What?"
"Long story for another time." I said. I notice that I had a bloody nose. "Fuck!" I held a hand to my nose to stop it from spilling onto the couch. Too late. "Shit, I'm sorry. I'm bleeding all over the couch." I stood up so not more blood would spill onto the couch. "God, I'm sorry about that." I said.
"It's okay Ryan," Twilight said. "It wasn't your fault." She glared at Spike as she said that. "I'll get you some tissues for that." She looked over to Spike. "Can I put you down and you wont attack him?" Spike nodded. She set him down and walked to get me some tissues.
"Well," I said. "I think our first meeting was better than this one."
"What do you mean? This is the first time we meet."
"I guess I should tell you. How would you react if I told you I was White Tone?" His eyes shot open.
"That was you?!"
"Yeah. Chrysie helped me with that."
"Who's Chrysie?"
"Queen Chrysalis."
"Oh okay-wait what?" I chuckled a little to his reaction to her name.
"She tricked me into steeling the Elements of Harmony. She said that they were high value amulets. I didn't know any better because I'm human, I didn't even what the EOH were." Twilight returned with some tissues. "Thank you, and sorry 'bout the couch."
"It's alright." Twilight said.
"Anyway, I needed to ask you something Spike."
"And that is?"
"Can you forgive me for everything I did. And about that whole Rarity thing, I had somepony. I was just flirting for fun. It's something us humans do."
"Oh. Yeah I do. Sorry about attacking you."
"As you forgave me, I forgive you. I hope we can become really good friends one day Spike." I gave him a smile.
"Same here, Ryan"
*****************************************************************************************************************
She felt another punch. "HOW COULD YOU LET THIS HAPPEN?!" Chrysalis yelled at Blue. She was beat up and covered in bruises and cuts. A Changeling sunk its fangs onto her front left. She let out another yelp of pain. "NOW HE MIGHT HAVE TOLD THEM EVERYTHING! DO YOU HONESTLY WANT TO DIE?!" Another Changeling punched her in the face again. She began crying.
"Please stop! Please stop! Please stop! Pleeeeaaaase stoooop!" She begged. She felt another pair of fangs enter her other front leg She was on her knees her arms tied to two poles on either side of her. They had been torturing her for about two hours now. A Changeling turned around and bucked its back legs into her chest. She could feel ribs cracking and breaking.
"WE COULD BE RUINED! WITH OUT HIS LOVE TO FEED OFF OF, I WONT BE STRONG ENOUGH TO TAKE OVER!" Her horn lit up.
"NO! PLEASE! NOT AGAIN! NO!" She felt electricity flow through her body as she screamed and convulsed. It lasted for five minuets and Chrysalis stopped the spell. Blue began crying again. She hurt all over. She couldn't move anything, It hurt too much to do so.
"I know what you are thinking, 'How is this my fault?' Well here's why. You should have made love to him more. I consumed so much of his love from that. If you did, I would be strong enough. But now, I don't have enough power, and you are being punished for not doing your job to its fullest extent." She motioned for another Changeling to buck her chest again. It did so. Blue was crying harder and harder as each Changeling bit her and kicked her and punched her. She was growing weak. "I'm done with her. Throw her away, in the Everfree, let the Timber wolves have her." Two Changelings unchained her and dragged her out of the room and flew her to the Everfree Forest and left her there to die.
*****************************************************************************************************************
"Mommy! Mommy! Look at this!" The little filly pointed to a flower.
"Yes I see that." The mother said.
"It's a pretty flower. Can I have it?"
"Now, now Snow Bliss. The Dark Purplish Blue unicorn said to the white coated filly Pegasues. She rustled her pink mane and looked into her big red eyes. "If you picked that flower, There might be no more left. Leave it there. We can come back some other time and see it again."
"Okay mommy." Nova Blast looked at her little daughter. She had her mane and eyes and her fathers coat and wings. Nova looked back and saw the blue five pointed star on her flank. She moved along with her daughter, then they heard a scream. "Mommy! What was that?!"
"I don't know."
"HELP ME! SOMEPONY PLEASE!"
Snow ran in the direction on the voice. "SNOW! GET BACK HERE!" Nova shouted. She ran after her little filly. She saw what was screaming. A mare. A broken Pegasus mare (Blue Jay in case you are slow). She looked beat up and hurt badly. Not only that, but Timber wolves were surrounding her. Nova gasped and quickly used a spell to startle the wolves. They started howling as she preformed the spell, casing a dog whistle like noise to bug them. The ran in all directions and ran off into the woods. Snow ran to the mare.
"Are you alright?" She asked. Nova ran to her as well.
"T-thank you...s-so m-much."
"Are you okay?" Nova asked the mare.
"N-no..."she collapsed on the ground and didn't move.
"MOMMY! Is she dead?!" Nova checked the mare.
"No, She is still breathing." She got the mare on her back. "We need to get her to a hospital."
*****************************************************************************************************************
"Wow Ryan," Spike said. "You are a really cool pony once you sit down and talk to you." I chuckled.
"Aww, thanks Spike. You aren't too bad yourself."
"Thanks." I liked Spike. He was a nice dragon.
"Nice to see you two getting along nicely." Twilight said.
""We just needed some time, that's all."" We both said at the same time. We looked at each other and laughed. "That was pretty sick, no lie." I said. We fist bumped. Twilight smiled. There was a knock on the door. Twilight opened it and saw a medic pony.
"Umm..."
"Does a 'Ryan' live here?" He the pony asked. I stood up and made my way to the door.
"You rang?"
"Wow, first house." He said. "We need to see you in the hospital...now."
"Why?"
"It's hard to explain, just follow me."
*****************************************************************************************************************
I looked at the pony. "Wait, what?" I looked at the doctor pony.
"We have a pony in the recovery room, she is in a coma, but she keeps saying your name in her sleep. When a mother and daughter founder her in the Everfree, She was badly hurt. It looked like some animal attacked at bit her. She had fang marks all over her, she had several broken ribs, and she had signs of exposure to electricity for long periods of time."
"May I see her?"
"Yes, follow me." He walked to the rooms and I followed behind him. When we walked in, two other ponies where in the room already.
"Mommy," The little filly said. "Is she going to be okay?"
"I hope so sweetie." The mother said.
"Nova Burst, Snow Bliss," The doctor said. "We found him." They turned to me and the little filly hid behind her mother. I gave them a little wave, I didn't get one back.
"Hey," I said. "I'm Ryan, nice to meet you."
"N-nice to meet you t-too." I sighed.
"I'm not going to hurt you ya know, I'm not a monster." I walked over to the bed. My eyes widened as I saw it was Blue. What happened to her?! I looked at her in awe. I looked at the fang marks, I noticed that they looked like the one Changelings would leave behind. I balled up my fists. "That fucking bitch!" I said. How you Chrysie do that to her?! What did she do?! I Was completely angry.
"Whats a 'fucking bitch'?" My eyes shot open as the filly said that. I looked over to her in complete shock.
"Umm...you shouldn't say that." I said. "Where I come from, It's a bad word. Don't say that okay?"
"But then why did you say it?"
"Because, I am an adult, I have the choice to say it if I want."
"So why did you do this to her?" The mother asked. I looked at her and gave her a look like 'Why the fuck would I play like that'?
"Why would I do this?!" I said. "I didn't! I was in Guard custody all night and day yesterday. I only came back yesterday night." I looked back at Blue. "Why Chrysie," I said to myself. "Why?"
*****************************************************************************************************************
I sat in the room most of the day and so did the other ponies. They wanted to know if she was truly okay. I learned that Snow Bliss was the little filly and Nova Blast was the mother. As time went by, Snow warmed up to me. She started to talk to me as well as Nova. I looked at Snow, who was now sitting on my lap. "So Mr. Ryan," She said. "What are your parents like?"
"That's...a subject I'd rather not talk about."
"Why not?"
"Because it hurts."
"Why?"
"Snow," Nova said. "Let it go."
"Okay." Snow said. I looked over at Blue. Nova sighed. "Mommy, I need to use the restroom, I'll be back." She hoped off my lap and left the room.
"I'm sorry about that," Nova said. "She just wants to know these things because her father left us for some other mare. She want's everypony to have a nice and caring dad and mother."
"Well," I said. "She is looking in the wrong place."
"May I ask why?" I sighed.
"Promise not to tell anypony?"
"Promise."
"My dad," I started. "Was on the abusive side. He took what he wanted, when he wanted it. He did what he wanted to us. Mom had threatened to leave him several times, each time was met by him threatening to kill her if she did. One day, when I was ten, My mother went to leave. He told her the same thing. She told him to fuck off and..." I tried my hardest not to cry. "H-he...took the kitchen knife...a-and..." I felt tears forming in my eyes. "I couldn't stop him...I wanted to...but I couldn't. He pried me off of her lifeless body and threw me out on the streets and told me if I was to come back, I'd end up like her and if I told anybody, he'd kill me." Tears poured down my face. I hung my head and tried to stop them. I felt something on my shoulder. I looked up to see Nova.
"Ryan...I'm sorry. My father was like that too. He beat my mom until she killed herself. I ran away from Manehatten and now I live here ever since I was 15." I looked over to her. "What I'm trying to say is, I know what you are feeling." She hugged me. I hugged her back.
"Mommy?" We both turned to Snow. I don't know about Nova, but my face got red. "What's happening?"
"N-nothing dear." She stopped hugging me and got back on all fours. "Lets all go out for lunch shall we?"
*****************************************************************************************************************
"It has been done." One of the Changelings said.
"Good," Chrysalis said. "How bloody was her death?" Both Changelings looked at each other.
"We wouldn't know. We just left her."
"WHAT?! YOU WERE SUPPOSE TO WATCH HER YOU MORONS!" She yelled at them. "WHO KNOWS IF SOMEPONY FOUND HER AND GOT HER TO SAFETY?!"
"M-my Queen-"
"DON'T 'MY QUEEN' ME! I SHOULD HAVE YOU KILLED FOR THAT SLIP UP!" She tried to calm down. "But I won't. But once more slip like that and I will."
""Yes my Queen"" They both said at the same time.
"You may go." They ran away with the speed of light.
