The Day His Life Got Turned Around
Chapter One
The day started off like any other day for Tank he got up and got ready for work like he normally did. Ya see Tank was a construction worker he worked long hours everyday for a decent pay, but this was just barely getting him by with paying for his bills and food. Tank is a very burly and large man with a brown Mohawk and large dwarven braded beard, but don't let how he looks fool you he is a very kind hearted man who tries to help out whenever he can, and would do anything to protect his friends. He would never harm someone unless the knew they hurt him or those he considered friends.
Leaving his home at around 6:00AM he went on his way heading downtown in his old truck. Although in the back of his mind he knew that he was forgetting something. "He remembered that he was suppose to call his friend, Hannah, this morning. So he decided to waited till he got to the job sight to call her." As he pulled up to the construction site, he pulled out his phone and called Hannah.
Hannah was a rather short woman for her "age" she was very pretty by most men's standards. She had a bit of a rough life but once she met Tank she had seemed to be doing better in life thanks to him being her friend. She had come to see Tank as more of a big brother now.
Hannah woke up to the sound of her phone ringing. She answered seeing it was her friend Tank. She then said "Hey Tank, thanks for calling me I needed some way of getting up since my alarm stopped working."
"No problem, Hannah. I always help out with whatever I can." Tank thought for a second and remembered he had forgot his lunch at home. He then asks, "Hey Hannah, you think you could bring me something to eat around 12? I forgot my lunch at home."
After hearing what Tank said ,"sure I can do that anything else you need."
"No, that's all, thanks,. "after hanging up the phone he got out of his truck he started walking toward the new hospital they are building, for the older people in the community. He then heads over to clock in for work.
After that he made his way from his boss's trailer where he had to check in, he saw something that seemed out of place, as he was making his way up to where he was to be working for the day. He saw a kind of out of place bundle of fuel tanks. He shook it off as being fine since the needed them for cutting the I beams later on. So he went about his work as normal.
After working his normal schedule. He sees off near the sites parking lot Hannah pulling up in her car and walking to the building wearing her hard hat and safety glasses. since you can't go on the site without them. Tank met Hannah halfway up the building.
While there talking Tank hears a slightly quiet ticking noise coming from the tanks he passed earlier. Right as he is looking them over he sees a wire attached to the tanks and follows it to find its connected to a timer. Tank turns to Hannah and picks her up yelling at everyone to run saying it's guna blow. Last thing Tank hears is a loud explosion when he drops to the ground to shield Hannah from the blast. He soon blacks out from the burning and stinging pain coming from his back.
Tank begins to hear what he thinks is Hannah telling him to wake up. He then opens his eye's and sees a small wolf like animal that look like Hannah Pygmy persona. The small wolf then speaks saying with a reluctant voice "thank god your awake I thought you were dead."
"Hannah is that you" Tank says with a hint of strain in his voice from the pain coming from his back.
The small wolf then says "Ya why do I look different." Tank raises himself up and says "Ya you look just like your Pygmy wolf persona."
Hannah then said "cool I guess that explains why you look like your Pony OC."
Tank then looks down to see he has blue fur with orange swirling tattoos on himself, and that he has hooves instead of hands, also that he is pretty tall almost as big as what he would guess to be Celestias height. Or at least what he thinks it would be from what he remembers from the show.
After that discovery he looks around to see where they are. He sees that the area around him looks way to much like the Everfree forest. As Tank looks around to he sees eyes of what he thinks could be two Timberwolves watching them. Tank then tells Hannah "don't move get behind him." Tank figured that even with the pain in his back that he should be able to hold them off if they pounce. But he didn't know if he could protect Hannah in the proses. So he decides to endure the pain in his back and picks up Hannah throwing her on his back and begins to run as best he can while the pain in his back begins to hurt more and more. Causing him to cringe with every step. he try not to make it noticeable so that Hannah doesn't worry.
Soon they got to a point that seemed like they had escaped form the wolves. But just then Tank gets jumped from behind sending Hannah flying off his back and away from him. As he gets up he sees Hannah is hurt from the attack and that she isn't moving. He runs over to Hannah and sets up the best defense he can with the state of pain he is in. Soon his anger that he is in a state of danger like this and he isn't able to protect his friend. This thought also leads to fear in his mind. His anger and soon begins to rise and turn to strength as he thinks of how he needs to protect Hannah.
As this thought goes through his head his body begins grow stronger making him look much more muscular, his tattoos then began to glow bright orange, while a slightly orange and blue shield begins to appears in front of him and, a fog of the same colors surrounds him. The Timberwolves's see this just taking it as a trick and begin to try and pounced on Tank. Just then tank disappears into the smoke that has surrounded him, and popes up next to the Timber wolf closest to him and slams his shield that has now changed form to fit his for leg into its side breaking the bark on it's side knocking it out. The second Timber wolf sees this and try's to jump on Tank. He then disappears once more and jumps above the Timber wolf and slam's the shield into its skull crushing it on the ground. Tank then turns back to Hannah and scoops her up beginning to run once more toward the edge of the forest.
Once he has reached the edge he sees a small cottage and starts heading to it.
At this point his tattoos had stopped glowing, he blinks for a time and when he opens hid eyes he didn't know where he was or how he got there he only know that him and Hannah needed help. After this he ran up to the cottage and nocked on the door yelling for some one to help "HELP WE NEED HELP!" He says with pain in his voice.
Fluttershy opens the door wondering who it could at this late hour. She opens the door to the sight of a blue and orange stallion the size of Celesta, with burn marks all down his back, and a small wolf on his back that looked injured pretty badly. The stallion seemed to be in immense pain. But his face did not show it, the only thing that showed was his concern for the small wolf. After letting them in she says in a rather soft voice " hand the little wolf here ill take care of here the poor thing looks to be in pain."
He hands the small wolf over to Fluttershy and says with a strained look on his face " thanks you for the help."
Fluttershy then said "no problem I'm always glad to help," right as she said this Tank collapsed to the ground out of intense pain and exhaustion. From the whole ordeal of getting out of the woods. He was still wondering what had happened in the woods, and how had gotten them away from the wolves.
Little does he know of the power he wealds within himself.
