The First being The Solar Rangers- I hope you enjoy this The OC Zone Hunter belongs to well Zone Hunter! He is very awesome and a total nice guy!- I hope you all enjoy the start of the ride! Call of Duty. " Zone are you awake? " Applejacks soft voice whispered through the late night as stars danced brightly high in the sky, the moon basked all below it in a soothing light blue hue. " Yeah. I can't get sleep lil filly. " Zone sighed aloud as his dark green eyes gazed up high above, his large toned body laying on its backside atop a large bale of hay. His short raven mane was swept back messily as his wings were folded back neatly, his whole body felt drained of energy and worn down, yet sleep would not come to him no matter how much he tried. " Me either, I just want to help big mac and you buck the upcoming harvest I've... " The sweet southern voice of a young filly AJ spoke up as the small copper pony clawed her way atop the hay bale with wobbly hooves. " You're still too young to buck. " Zone snorted softly as the small filly shot him a glare, her tiny hooves suddenly jumping atop his large chest as she casted a small frown down to his face. Zone couldn't help but chuckle as the small filly scrunched up her muzzle so cutely trying to come off as tough, yet in his eyes only came off as cute. " You'll see one day I'll be the bestest apple bucker in all of Equestria!! " The filly spoke with a smile before poking out her tongue to Zone playfuly, The stallion merely sighed pushing her off his chest with his spare hoof a squeal escaping her lips. " I bet you will kid. " Zone huffed his mind lost in thought, it had been close to three years since he had started to work on the Apple Farm and longer before that since he had began his own tale. He remembered the night he saved AJ and Mac from that wild Timberwolf attack, just two children scared senseless from the action taking place around them, afterwards the Apples offered him a job and home on the farm. It over time became his new home, away from the lonely Everfree that he so long stayed hidden away within. And though he loved AJ and Mac like his own siblings, he knew deep inside his story had to be more then this slow paced existence. He felt he was meant to make a difference in this world. That his story would be one that would change the lives of all those around him. " Why do you look so sad? " A small yawn escaped the fillies lips as she fell on her backside, cuddling softly against the stallion her eyes drooping sleepily. " I...just thinking about lost time. " He spoke in barely a whisper, his own dark green hues gazing off into the sky seriously. " Lost time...." ***** " Hey! Wake up!- You can't sleep here! " The gruff voice of a stallion snapped Zone back into reality as he groggily opened his eyes to glance up to the angry eyes of the bartender at " The Ciderhouse Bar.". " I'm...I'm not sleeping just resting my eyes., get me another cider. " Zone mumbled as he waved a hoof over to the brown stallion who simply shook his head no. " Phst! You haven't even paid for the last three cider's yet buddy! " His voice boomed as Zone just groaned aloud uneasily sitting up on his seat. " Put it on my tab then! " Zone snapped to the bartender who simply just chuckled aloud poping his neck to the side slightly. The cool air hit Zone like daggers as the Barkeep slung him roughly through the front door, the pegasus hit the ground with a dull thud his eyes gazing up to the star filled sky above as a steady stream of steam slowly trailed from his mouth. " Get a life buddy! " The barkeep rolled his eyes as he stomped back into the establishment. Zone allowed the cool night air to caress his fur for a few seconds as he collected his thoughts, it had been years since he could get a full nights sleep, his mind always seemed to wonder. Rolling over and standing to his hooves, he knew this was not where he saw himself down the road, he spent his day's traveling from place to place never really calling anywhere home. Mostly he would find himself some kind of trouble, keep his mind from falling back to the past. Be it walking into bar's looking for a fight with some ponies causing trouble, he even would go as far as walking the alleyways at night hoping somepony would cross him. Looking for those who would do wrong to others.- To right their wrongs gave him the one thing he desperately searched for. A purpose. ( The Distant Past. ) " Nooo!- Don't go! " The small filly Applejack pouted as she quickly ran in front of Zone, wrapping her delicate hooves around his bulky leg. " Applejack!- let go of his leg! " A mare spoke with a flustered tone her long golden mane tied off into a braid, her belly was rounded with a new foal on the way, her dark green eyes filled with worry. " No!- He's my older brother!, and family don't go and abandon eachother!! " AJ pouted stomping hind hooves into the dirt as Zone simply sighed aloud eyes narrowing down to the little pony. " Applejack!- you know I love you and your family like my own right? " Zone spoke sternly as the small filly gazed up towards him in awe. " Yes..." The copper colored filly spoke with a quivering tone of voice. " Never think I'd abandon any of you. " Zone spoke his voice never missing a beat as the filly folded her ears back slightly. " I need to go, my purpose is out there in this large world of ours.- If I don't find it my story will never be complete. " Zone kneeled down locking eyes with the small pony as she nodded along. " But what if your purpose is with us? " Aj whimpered slowly letting go of his leg, tears slowly starting to form in her dark green hues. Zone felt a pinge of guilt within his soul, was it selfish he wished to travel Equestria in order to find his place? ( Present Day. ) That was the question he had been asking himself for years now. His hooves walked slowly towards the edge of Canterlot, a large path leading back to the darkness of The Everfree streached out far before him. A place he once called home, now a mere break from the routine he called his life. " Looking for a place to stay for the night? " A voice echoed around him stopping his hoof in mid step, Zone slowly turned around to come face to face with The Mother of the Night. " Your Majesty..." Zone mumbled out of surprise quickly kneeling before the Princess out of respect. Princess Luna simply smiled and nodded to the charming stallion., Zone quickly lifted up from the ground his eyes locking with the alicorns as he watched her majestic mane flow in the brisk draft of the night. " I know you have been feeling lost my little pony, but I come offering a once in a lifetime chance- a moment you can choose to be more then you have become. " Luna spoke her voice soft and melodic, filled with a tone of regality and care. " How? " Zone stumbled over his words as the princess took a small step forward to him, almost seeming to tower over his frame. " The sleepless nights, the feeling of being hollow- I've seen it all. " Luna gazed deeply into his own eyes, the world around him slowly being pulled into darkness. " I can give you purpose again, all you must do is trust me. " Lunas voice echoed around Zone as if he were in a cave, everything around him slowly turning black threatening to swallow his being whole. " I trust you..." Zone whispered under his breath as Luna nodded in front of him, her eyes turning a bright white hue-everything around him going silent. Then pure darkness.

Thank you to all who commented, read, liked and etc.- you guys are the best. I'm pretty busy with writing commisions right now I need to get a jump on, I'll try and get the next chapter out by Friday-I hope. Anyway let's introduce Wingstream- The Brash but well meaning Muscle of The soon to be Solar Rangers! Mayhem in Manehattan. " So I told the mare, Babe you can wait for me to return all you want, but I got a sassy technicolor filly waiting for me back in Ponyville. " Rook chuckled aloud as he leaned up against the edge of the rooftop him and his partner were stationed at. The dull grey building stretched high into the sky, towering above all of Manehattan as the city had come alive down below during the busy night, ponies of all types shuffling around hastily. The moon in the sky was hidden by the many bright lights of the city, making for easy cover for the two pegasi stallions keeping a close eye on a meeting of ponies across the street within a new nightclub. " Dude that's cold. " Wingstream chuckled as he kept his attention upon the meeting, wearing his gold colored armor of Celestias guard much like his partner. His dark raven and crimson hued mane blended in with the night perfectly, his build was perhaps a bit taller then most stallions a fact he was proud of though never braged- well perhaps a little. His coat was a strong and bold navy blue, while his eyes were a bright green filled with courage. " Wingstream buddy!- mares out there are crazy!- they just all want that one stallion they can break and stroll around to all their little friends..." Rook narrowed his blue eyes, slowly groaning aloud a bit his orange mane slicked back. " Huh? " Wingstream huffed aloud his head tilting off to the side. " Yeah.- One mare tried to dress me in some kind of suit to go meet her parents once..." Rook began to go on once more his friend quickly placing down the binoculars. " What?! no! - The ponies are on the move Rook! " Wingstream rolled his eyes to his partner, who swiftly snatched up the binoculars and gave a quick glimpse. Down below a large group of stallions were trotting out of the club, making a move down the walkway heading towards a dark alley a few blocks off. " But the meeting should have lasted another hour!- back-up is still a ways off! " Rook sighed slamming down the binoculars on the roofs ledge in anger. " Then we better get down there before we lose them! " Wingstream proudly extended his wings limbering up his body. " What!- our order's were to keep an eye out on them until back-up arrives. " Rook spoke his voice cracking slightly with the hint of un-ease. " Well when you get crap intel!, you just got to you know-improvise. " Wingstream chuckled aloud pouncing up atop the roofs ledge, his green eyes gazing down below with excitement. " I'm up for improvising and all- just not against a group of what nine stallions? " Rook casted a worried gaze over to his partner. " Oh c'mon Rook!- don't back out now, you might just end up becoming some mares toy next..." Wingstream chuckled aloud as he jumped off the building swiftly, flying off high above the bright city to follow the group. " I'm not scared! " Rook yelled after his friend hoping up atop the ledge himself. " Just worried about getting beaten to a pulp...." He whispered under his breath jumping off after his partner, knowing this night would be one to remember. ****** An abandoned warehouse stood eerily within the darkness of the night, not a shimmer of light could be seen outside as the group of ponies had made their way inside, each with large saddlebags on their backsides. Within the group chatted among themselves, waiting for business to start. " Ahem.- May I ask that we could begin? " The soprano voice of a single unicorn mare spoke aloud as the chatter around the warehouse died down, bright magenta eyes glowing from the darkness. Stepping forward a slender gray mare made her way to the front of the group, her small body draped in a elegant brown fur from many a slain animal, her mane was a pure white and flowed down her side in waves. A cutie mark of a black heart with a crack down the middle, placed atop her flank for all to see. Each stallion within the building kept a close eye on this enchanting vision, the mare simply ignoring the hungry glances casted upon her as her hooves daintily walked across the filthy stone floor, coming to a stop before the second group of ponies who had meet them here. " Phst.- Shut up you tart!- we don't start until Sampson Shire or his brother says we start! " A gruff black stallion rolled his eyes to the mare gazing down to her hatefully. " Hmmm.- I can only hope Mr.Shire is not as uncouth as the help he hires. " The mare huffed softly, the cool air around the warehouse giving her a slight chill as she cuddled up closer to her fur. Suddenly the small voice of a young stallion spoke up within Sampsons crowd, a small lean stallion pushed his way through the group his brown mane frazzled out beyond repair while his coat was a dull yellow color. He had the Cutie Mark of two beakers and an equation featured atop his flank. He wore a pair of oversized glasses atop his muzzle as blue eyes frantically gazed around, he looked visibly uncomfortable to be here. " Mr.Shire? " The mare raised a brow, the stallion simply chuckling aloud softly. " Oh Celestia no!- I'm Sunny Shire!- Sampsons my older brother..." Sunny spoke with a worried grin across his face while he trotted over to the mare ready for the deal. " We are ready to do business Ma'am- and may I say your mane is lovely. " Sunny smiled as the mare blushed a light pink across her cheeks, flaunting a hoof towards him softly. " My quite a charmer. " She spoke with a smile batting her lashes, she thought this stallion was quite odd to be in this group, he barely stood any taller then herself and seemed frightened of something. " Well then Sunny I'm Mitzi Maneyem- and let's begin...." Mitzi flipped her mane to her side as she motioned for a white stallion behind her to come forward. Within seconds the stallion trotted to his bosses side, eyes narrowed towards Sunny with malice as he dumped off the contents within his saddlebag before everypony in the room. *********** " What's in the bag?- What's in the bag? " Rook whined in a whisper as Wingstream and him were hidden behind a large group of empty boxes within the warehouses catwalk, the fact the place was so cluttered with boxes, trash and a lack of light made it hard to see anything. " Shh!- I can't tell. " Wingstream shh'd his partner narrowing green hues across the way towards the group of ponies, seeing a stallion pour out contents from his saddlebag. Bright red flowers fell everywhere upon the floor, each flower had black thorns across the stem while a slight yellow tint zig-zaged its way across the edge of the pointed petals. " Flowers? " Wingstream scrunched up his muzzle confused. " What kind of flowers? " Rook gently pushed his friend to the side, trying to get a glimpse of them from behind a particularly tall box. " What does it matter?- you want to decorate a dress with them? " Wingstream nudged his partner back, rolling his eyes. " No you ass.- But they could be outlawed by Celestias Trade Embargo of The Setting Sun. " Rook hissed in reply as Wigstream gave him a blank stare in confusion. " Oh my Luna!- did you even pass the Final Guard exam? " Rook rolled his eyes pushing Wingstream to the side gently, as he looked forward to see what exactly they were selling. " Ehhhh- I got like a sixty-nine percent on the exam- my Physical Exam was through the roof though..." Wingstream huffed as Rook suddenly gazed over to him in shock and worry. " This is really bad.- they're selling " Tempestuousness Flora. ". " Rook spoke with a shivering voice before taking a few steps back. " Temp-a-what-now? " Wingstream gazed ahead in confusion, having no real idea what was just said. " Grrr.- " Fury Flowers." - A plant from the Badlands capable of causing hallucinations, amnesia and full on Berserking in high doses.- banned from Equestrias borders almost 200 years ago..." Rook sighed as his partner narrowed his eyes in anger. " Damn it!- we have to stop them., before that stuff is leaked to the streets." Wingstream spoke in a loud whisper trying to jump across the box that hid him, a strong hoof pulling him back. " No!- we are out numbered damn it!- and breaking orders as it is! " Rook growled as he held his partner in place, only to recieve a rough push away. " So what?- we let these weirdos just get away? " Wingstream spoke in shock and anger., his dark green hues locking with Rooks. " We pull back!- that's the order! " Rook spoke in a stern manner puffing out his chest trying to intimidate the younger stallion into listening. " But not the code! " Wingstream spoke under his breath, blood boiling as his ears folded back knowing in his heart he was about to take the plunge. Within seconds as Rook started for the cracked open window they snuck in through, the navy colored stallion quickly pushed away hoping over the main box and falling from the safety of the upper levels to ground floor. Rook glared in shock as he rushed over to the boxes edge, watching in horror as Wingstream slowly snuck across the floor towards the group of ponies barely hidden by the darkness around him. ***** Sunny slowly looked over a few flowers, holding them gently within his hoof as he peeled back the petals and checked out their growth and coloring. His eyes lighting up happily as he cast Mitzi a sweet almost naive smile. " Wow!- these specimen's are truly prime. " Sunny spoke in a cheerful tone as the unicorn slowly rolled her eyes. " Yes I sell only the best., better the quality the more income. " Mitzi flipped her mane over her shoulder slowly, a smile crossing her lips. " Oh!- yes but of course fifty thousand bits for the lot! " Sunny spun around waving a hoof to a large brown stallion holding several large saddlebags on his backside, each filled to the brim with golden bits. Mitzi couldn't help but giggle as the bags were placed in front of her, using the pale blue glow of her magic she pulled open a large bag on the right before a group of bits floated up before her sparkling brightly. " Mmmmm.- Perfect. " The unicorn spoke blowing a soft kiss towards the coins before turning her attention back to Sunny. " Oh!- before I forget darling, what exactly are you using these flower's for anyway? " Mitzi flaunted her hoof delicately as her hired stallions began to pick up the bags of bits. " Well Ma'am I can't really say...." Sunny chuckled lightly in a nervous tone. Mitzi merely pouted her lower lip pushing out slightly, the mare swaying her backside slowly side to side as her tail swished in perfect unison as she walked over to Sunny. Her large magenta hues slowly locking with his blue ones, the stallion blushing a dark red across his cheeks. " Awww. but Sunny we're business partner's now, you can tell me. " She leaned in close her small muzzle almost touching his. " We-Well...half is going towards to creating a new type of tablet I have been tinkering with, anypony who takes it will feel a sense of euphoria like nothing before..." Sunny spoke his voice rising and falling in tone. " Hmmm.- and the other half? " Mitzi asked her long lashes batting slowly. " I..can't say..." Sunny sighed his whole body shivering slightly. Mitzi just sighed gently nuzzling her own muzzle against his neck softly, feeling the stallion shiver in delight. " We are all entitled to our little secrets, but this tablet idea of yours sounds interesting- perhaps I can be your partner? " Mitzi smiled as she leaned in closely whispering into his ear, making sure her warm breath tickled his fur. Sunny blushing nodded quickly up and down, his heart racing within his chest wildly. " I...I um don't-err see why not?..." The stallion stumbled over his words excitedly, smitten by the mare before him. " Oh Sunny!- You are too sweet, we need to plan a new meeting then.-except at my place. " Mitzi winked to the frantic stallion who broke out into a large grin. " Or how about My place!! " Wingstream shouted out proudly as he sprung forth from the shadows, eyes burning like embers in the darkness. " Royal Guard?!!! " Sunny screamed, quickly jumping behind Mitzi who merely rolled her eyes annoyed. " Yes!- as I speak three dozen of the Royal guards of Princess Celestia, are waiting outside this warehouse to strike at my word- surrender now or perish!! " Wingstream spoke in a calm tone trying to bluff his way to a victory. The stallions in the room whispered worryingly to themselves, a few even began to slowly sneak off towards the corners. Mitzi narrowed her eyes to Wingstream ,who raised a brow slightly. " Now...Ahem line up single file and we'll take this nice and slow...." Wingstream ordered as he quickly bumped open his own pack on his backside, removing a small group of metal hoof-cuffs. Mitzi could sense the slight crack in his voice, the small drip of sweat running down his brow. This foolish stallion was a good liar but not perfect. " It's a lie!- if the guard was outside they wouldn't send in just one of their own!- Kill him! " Mitzi snapped aloud her voice changing from sweet to annoyed and cold. The hired ponies within the room wasted no time surrounding Wingstream as he slowly started to back up shocked. " Let's not jump the gun here..." Wingstream chuckled as suddenly a group of wooden boxes above him fell down to the ground roughly, each box smacking hard into the group of stallions knocking out five. Wingstream gazed upward seeing Rook glare towards him before jumping down from the catwalk above to his partners side, swiftly un-sheathing a small sword from his side pointing it over to the large group around them. Laughter filled the air, as each stallion reached to a holster on thier sides, removing small three shot crossbows and pointing it towards the royal guards. " No offense buddy, but you brought a sword to a crossbow fight. " Wingstream chuckled quickly, reaching to his side and pulling out his own crossbow. " And you can't follow order's! " Rook snapped back in anger. This night was about to get wild.
Sunsets and Sun Rises.View OnlineCelestias Solar Rangers.Sunsets and Sun Rises.Author's Note This had been completed for some time now, I just didn't have the time to edit it to the best of my abilities. I've been quite busy. Anyway this chapter is a bit of a cliffhanger, the next chapter is the setup with Zone hunter, and a funny cute scene between Brew and Wingstream. I'll do my best to have it up, this week. Love, Rare. Sunsets and Sun Rises. Rook and Wingstream pressed their backs against the large wooden crate behind them, The group of stallions closing in ready to fire their arrows into each guard. Wingstream kept a serious expression on his face, though inside his heart was about to explode out of his chest. Rook sighed under his breath eyes darting around the room for a few seconds, before out of nowhere rushing forward the group, sword in hoof not raised but facing the hard smooth floor. Wingstream watched in surprise, the blade sliding across the surface creating fiery sparks, his partner quickly tossing the blade above the group of stallions. The hot steel landing right atop the open saddlebags of flowers, combusting quickly into flames and smoke. " Save the specimens! " Sunny yelled aloud as the henchponies stumbled into eachother frantically confused of what to do. " Run? " Wingstream asked his partner who glared to him. " Run! " Rook replied quickly, flying off towards the catwalk above. " Get them! " Mitzi snapped annoyed at the panic within the room. Wingstream flashed open his wings proudly ready to fly after his partner, a henchpony swiftly unloading a bolt from across the room as others were roughly stomping out the flames. Just as the blue pegasus lifted upward the bolt pierced his right wing in a clean cut, A loud scream escaping his lips as he smashed into the ground with a thud. " Ahhh!- I'm down! " He winced in pain, while Rook gazed down to him from high above. " Partner!- Help me! " Wingstream yelled above himself, only to see Rook rush off and out of view. Green hues filled with a sense of pain as he quickly rolled out of the way of another bolt, running into the maze of crates within the warehouse, a trail of blood following close behind. " Make sure he doesn't escape! " Mitzi hissed as three of her ponies rushed into the maze, eyes filled with bloodlust. Sunny whimpered aloud over the crushed product before him, kneeled beside the burnt ashes of the rare flower. His ears folded back in anger and disappointment. " It's ruined!- worthless! " Sunny smashed his hoof into the ashes his voice cracking, the stallion on the verge of tears. Mitzi slowly walking up from behind him, her eyes rolling slightly as she held out a hoof to her side, a white stallion handing over his crossbow to her. " I know such a loss.- I should've done business with your brother, you seem like the gut spilling type. " Mitzi sighed as Sunny blinked confused, slowly turning around as he came face to face with the crossbow. " What?!- No I'd never..." Sunny tried to spit out the words before Mitzi pulled the hoof trigger, a bolt piercing through his left eye like butter. The stallion limply fell over onto the ground, a small pool of blood forming around him. The small group left of his henchponies gazing forward in shock. " Kill them all. " Mitzi huffed shaking her head side to side, her group of henchponies slowly closing in on their prey. The henchponies followed the trail of fresh blood through the winding maze of crates and boxes, turn after turn leading deeper into the warehouse. The trail suddenly coming to a complete stop during a long stretch of boxes down one path. " The blood stopped? " One stallion spoke in a confused tone. " That's impossible! " The leader of the pack yelled aloud, trying to catch his breath from the long run. " Maybe he bled to death? " The third and last stallion shrugged in a dimwitted manner. " What!?- then his body just poofed into thin air! " The leader growled lifting a hoof smacking the dimwit over the head. " I'm not returning to Mitzi without a body, she once shot a pony for calling her Mayhem once. " The first stallion spoke his voice filled with worry. The stallion's continued to gripe at eachother in anger, none noticing a single box behind them not stacked with the others, merely just lying on the ground. Underneath the box Wingstream took steady breathes, his wing folded back still dripping blood from the wound. " Grrr.- I feel like a snake hiding under some dumb box. " He whispered under his breath, his vision starting to become hazy. He knew he had to make a break for it soon or risk passing out from the loss of blood. Thoughts rushing to his Partner Rook, how could he have broke the code and left him behind like this? Ears folded back in silence, he fought back the urge to swear aloud in anger. Using his hoof he gently lifted the box up slightly, the stallions were still fighting among themselves like idiots. Wingstream lifted up to his hooves slowly crawling across the floor, the box shuffling with him down the path he was upon, with each step hoping the exit was close by. " Ahem! " Wingstream heard a stallion clear his throat, the box quickly lifting off his body, all three stallions surrounding him in anger. " Hehehe.- You got me.- but did you also get the secret I left in the box? " Wingstream chuckled. The leader blinking with curiosity as he lifted the box up to his face. Wingstream quickly standing and punching his hoof through the back of the cardboard frame, a loud pop sending the henchpony flying back with a thud. " The bad thing is, he was the smart one. " Wingstream chuckled as the second stallion rushed him, both tackling into the large crates lined across the path. Wingstream groaned aloud in pain, his wing killing him as the stallion spun around, a swift bucking sent him crashing onto the ground with a thud. The henchpony then leaping towards him swiftly, doing a small roll Wingstream dodged the hit. The stallion glared quickly pouncing atop his foe, hooves pressing roughly against Wingstreams throat cutting off his air in seconds. Gasping Wingstreams eyes darted around him for help, spotting very fine wood shavings littering the floor from the crates. Swiping up a hooffull he swung the dust into the eyes of the henchpony, the stallion growling aloud in pain as he let go of Wingstream who gasped for air. Just as the stallions vision had begun to clear, Wingstream quickly headbutted his foe across the face. The sound of skulls clashing echoing around the warehouse, the henchpony falling to the ground knocked out. The dimwitted henchpony gazed to Wingstream in awe and silence, unsure what to do or even what action to take. " C'mon!- I can take you! " Wingstream growled in anger, puffing out his chest proudly as a form of intimidation. The last henchpony simply folded his ears back, swiftly turning back as he bolted off the way he and his friends had come. Wingstream sighed in relife, not sure if he could've really taken on another by himself. Vision fading in and out of focus he did a small turn, The Royal Guard of Celestia stood in a large line atop the catwalk high above with weapons drawn. " Ah!- Back-up!- guess I'm not as Intim..." Wingstream trailed off the world slowing down around him, he could feel his body topple over and hit the ground hard. Everything growing silent, the guards swiftly forming around him. Before all went black. A blonde maned mare gazed down to Zone Hunter smiling softly, her eyes were the most bright green color he had ever seen, sparkling brightly within the darkness. Her coat a soft copper color tinted with just hints of red, she lowered herself towards him in silence. Her muzzle softly touching his own, Zone merely closed his own eyes feeling their lips touch. Both ponies pulling into a passionate embrace for what felt like a lifetime. " Come back to me. " The mare smiled with tears forming in her eyes. Zone opened his own to see the mare fading away before him, his heart aching within his chest watching her fade into nothing. " Don't go!- Jewel!!! " He screamed into the darkness as he lunged forward, wrapping his hooves tightly around her small frame, trying his best to hold onto her. " Ack!- I know you might not feel well, But I assure you I'm not a female! " A young stallion yelped in a rhyming fashion, Zone opening his eyes to see he was holding a Zebra like pegasus in his hooves. Within seconds Zone released him, the new pony falling to the ground with a slight thud. " Who are you!?- Where am I? " Zone groaned the sudden flash of light almost blinding him, the room he was within was large and pure white, decorated femininely with purple drapes and fancy carpets. Every large window in the room had the curtains pulled back completely, bright new light pouring into the room from the sun outside. Zone could feel his brain pounding in his skull, about to shatter him to his very core. The monochromatic pony smirked slightly before him, coat a dark shade of black with white stripes across his frame, while his mane was a pure white with black tips, the tail almost the same except with zig-zag black streaks. A Cutie Mark of a single beaker atop his flank proudly. " My name is Enchanted Brew.- That said how are you? " Brew spoke his voice still nervous in tone, light blue eyes darting about the room. " I feel as if Celestia dropped the sun atop me. " Zone Sighed slowly getting to his hooves, which at the moment felt closer to jelly. " Ahem.- Well that is to be expected, when they brought you in last night you were um....Gassed? " Brew spoke up his tone of voice becoming calmer. " Gassed? " Zone narrowed his eyes in confusion, ears tilting to the side slightly. " You know....Drunk, Off your gourd and what some might call Tipsy. " Brew replied his eyes falling down to the floor shyly. " What?!- No I was wandering around Canterlot and The Princess of the Night found me..." Zone began to speak only to be cut off by the sound of the large double doors opening. Celestia the Princess of the Sun walking within, her multicolored mane flowing behind her elegantly as her white coat almost seemed to shimmer within the light of the room. Both stallions kneeling before her out of respect. " You may rise." Celestia spoke with a smile, her royal guards closing the door behind her swiftly. " To be honest Mr.Hunter, my guards brought you to the castle.- You had gotten kicked out of a bar and passed out." Celestia explained as Zone looked away slightly ashamed, biting hard on his lower lip. " My sister Luna then was able to track you down within your dreams. " Celestia finished as Brew gazed to Zone with a innocent look upon his face. " Told you." Brew whispered softly receiving a glare from the other stallion. " Grrrr.- Why did Luna and yourself seek me out?!- and why is he here?! " Zone yelled at the top of his lungs, his large hoof stomping roughly across the marble floor. " I was just brought here by a guard, needing a potion to help with his insomnia.- afterward the princess here asked me to make sure you were alright. " Brew mumbled under his breath before taking a few steps back, ears folding down. Zone sighed upon seeing the other stallion look beaten in spirit by his actions, he knew he had to keep his anger in check for the days to come. " As for your question Mr.Zone follow me.- All shall be revealed. " Celestia spoke in a calming voice sending a slight wave of ease into Zones heart before he nodded along. Celestia let her eyes fall upon Brew off in the corner, knowing this stallion was a kind energetic heart underneath his shy exterior. The alicorn flashing him a warm smile, as she lifted her hoof to address him. " Oh!- Enchanted Brew would you mind checking in on a guard brought in late last night?, his wing needs mending." The Princess asked in a sweet melodic tone, Brew quickly kneeling once more with a smile. " It would be my pleasure, your majesty. " Brew replied the princess giggling softly, before she and Zone left the room to discuss business.
