Ok, where should I begin... oh yeah, when I made a stupid mistake, this'll be sooo easy. now, let's start from the beginning.... I woke up, yawning, stretching my bat-winged limbs, after an entire night of sleeping. "I hope I don't have too much work today as usual." I looked out the window, and sighed, looking at the statue of our ruler, The One, who is the ruler of the world I live in, called the Underworld, it's nice, due to the fact that I am a demon. I walked to the same broken mirror that always seemed boring and shattered. I still saw that same black fur coated demon, with red eyes. I sighed again and got out. "Fireheart, so nice to see you, now go to work, we don't want another incident like last time." I saluted, not really caring, "Oh no sir, I certainly don't want trouble". "Good demon, now, you can work by going to get us all lunch". I almost scoffed, but held my tounge. "Why can't you get lunch?" He rolled his eyes. "Fireheart, you are gonna meet The One today, I dunno bout you, but I think I like my head where it is thanks." I gave him a 'do you really think I'll fall for it again?', due to every time he said that, I wind up working anyway. Thus I said, "Sir, can you not give me sarcasm this time." I then had a, 'I don't want to deal with a lot of jokes because I might punch you hard enough to make ya go to the hospital' face. "Fireheart, this time I am not kidding... You'll actually meet him today." I almost peed, usually something bad had happened to a demon when they messed stuff up, and then they meet The One. "I-Inferno, y-you better not be messing with me." He frowned. "Fireheart, out all the times I have ever joked with you, this aint one of those times," yep, he aint jokin, and I will be in deep, deep hot water. I am shaking, The One, was my ruler, and I am meeting him, how can i not be scared? I looked around the room I was in, which was huge to me. I was sitting on a red cushion, which was comfy to me, then there was the huge, crystal-like chandelier. There was a stone, granite table in front of me. Paintings of other rulers of the underworld were lined on the walls. I swear I felt my heart drop when the doors open, then, there stood the most fearful, yet awesome ruler of the underworld. "Hello Fireheart, thank you for coming here, I need some hel-" He was interrupted I fell on my knees and yelled scared. "PLEASE DON'T BANISH ME I DIDN'T MEAN TO DO IT PLEASE!!!" The One, shaken a little, looked at me. He started chuckling and said gently, "Calm down Fireheart, I only ask in need of help." His appearance now being a little more friendly started to registered in my head. His grey coat, slick black hair, and gentle, yet fearful blood red eyes. "Fireheart, I need a favor, as you know, Equestria is a little untrustful of us, and we need to make a treaty," I tilted my head. " Why me? Why me out of all the other demons out there?" I looked at him, still a little afraid. He smiled and looked up in thought, "Well, I have heard of your interactions with others, from Euqestria. You have the best experience." I blink a few times, The One who ruled the underworld was telling me to go on a possibly dangerous mission to an unknown area in which I was to go to make a negotiation. I stood up, and saluted. " YES SIR RULER SIR!" He puts a hoof on me. "just call me by my name, Haigia, now go, go to two princesses named Celestia, and Luna, negotiate, then report back to me, clear?" I nodded and sped off, almost about to explode with the smile I have, which faded, I had no idea where Equestria is though. I walked back and asked feeling embarrassed little. " Say, Haigia, where is Equestria?" He chuckled, and said in his gentle voice, "Equestria is near out gates, go through them, then the forest, and you will be in Equestria, they might not see you friendly though, so be as quiet as possible." I nodded, and walked off. As I was walking, i thought of something, what if they don't accept me at all? I shook my head, oh Fire, why are thinking about this, they might be friendly, they ponies after all. I kept walking, but stopped, thinking again, then again, they don't know anything about demons like me, they might capture me, torture me, or worse, kill me! I slapped myself, literally. FIRE!!! You were chosen for this kinda stuff, you should demon up. I looked at the gates, they were standing tall, strong, and fearless... if that makes sense. Oh well, let's do this _______________________________________________________________________________________________ I swear I am about to scream, the guards at the gate were skeptical and it took a meeting with Haigia to convince them that I am not smuggling anything. They even hit me with a friggen pipe, i dunno where it came from but they had one. When they interrogated me because they thought I was some sorta spy. When they found out I wasn't, they were as pale as the moon. They practically begged me not to tell Haigia, I was very tempted to though. In the end, I forgave them, they were doing their job after all. The thing that bothered me though was that I was hit with something that seemed silly, but hey, it made me chuckle. The bump on my head hurts though. They gave me some weird medicine though... I decided i shouldn't bother about it, the guards are always weird. I sometimes think that they are insane and that they might have stolen something. I walked out to the Overworld, aka, Equestria. I took a deep breath and screamed so loud, I swear someone from the huge castle on the mountain could hear me. I walked down a path in a forest, it wasn't too bad, but then, I heard howl in the distance, I think my heart stopped. Two timberwolves were circling me in 5 minutes, one thought occurred to me, what in the actual hell was i thinking? What, in all of, well, Equestria, was I thinking. I was petrified, but I was holding my ground. I growled, my eyes turning cat-like. "COME AT ME DOGS!!!!!!" That was a mistake, one timberwolf charged at me, but before it struck me, I jumped up. The timberwolf accidentally ran into the other, which made that one angry, and he tried to headbutt the other off of him, but he failed, which made his situation worse than before. I couldn't help but chuckle, they were idiots. I clamped my mouth shut, because then they glared at me, snarling. "Oh boy, well it was fun being a pray and all, but i gotta go... so see ya!" With that, I ran like hell. I stopped, I am almost lost in this forest, that and it freaks me out. Stuff is moving, living, and growing on their own. I wondered what it looks like above. I then, smacked myself in the face, I had wings... I have friggen wings... Why didn't I think of that before? Oh yeah, I was being chased by malicious wolves made out of toothpicks. I flew up, and sighed with relief, there was a village or town, or something like that. I went there, and when I got out and into the streets, I finaly realized it was night time, and when I figured that I could walk around for a few minutes, looking at everything. I looked around this weird town and found out that this town, is problably the weirdest, strangest place I've ever been. I even made a note to ask these ponies what the actual hell they did with the town. When i got to what looks like the entrance, everything went black. I felt like I opened my eyes, no, I am in a dream. How do I know, well I know for one, that physics does not let me hang upside down on the moon, looking down at everyone. I look around, I was in a lucid dream? "This is... weird." I looked around again and saw two figures, one was weirdly shaped and the other was an alicorn. Author's Note Hey, this is the first one i written, if you like it, go ahead and like it, if you think it's bad, please tell me why or how, i want to get better at writing as i continue, so i will listen to you guys. Oh, and this was edited by Paper Scribbles because I kept messing it up. Chapter 2: Meeting the newcomerChapter 2: Meeting the newcomer I tilted my head. The strangely figured one, was... well... strange. It had two, different antlers, one lion paw, one eagle talon, one bat wing, one pegasus wing, one lizard leg, one deer leg, one long tooth, a head of a grey horse, I think, and the mane of a donkey. The first thought came to me very clear... What.The.Hell. What the actual hell is this guy? Well anyway, the other figure, was an alicorn, a deep blue one with a moon cutie mark. Her mane was a little strange, but it was flowing, and, wait, sparkling? Seriously what the hell, how the hell is it sparkly? I swear I might have some side affects from that forest. The alicorn looked at me and smiled, and she yelled loudly, "WELCOME THY CITIZEN!!!" I covered my ears, that was so friggen loud! She face hoofed, "Sorry, we are not yet accustomed to thy usual language of speech." I tilted my head "Let me translate you demon, she is not used to talking normally, so please excuse her for her yelling and weird talking." The weird one said all this casually... wait were they drinking tea? The weird one snapped and had a pie with a bomb in i- WAIT THERE'S A BOMB!? "Would you like to have some pie? it surely is a blast. "THERE'S A FRIGGEN BOMB AND YOU'RE MAKING PUNS?!" I yelled, while the alicorn was making a facehoof. "Discord, please stop with thy shenanigans," said the alicorn. She took a sip of tea while, I assume, Discord is rolling in the air laughing. "Oh Luna, learn to take a joooke, it's all in good fun!" Said Discord. He threw the pie in the air and it turned into... dynamite? Luna rolled her eyes, "We would take it, but thy jokes had always, exploded on us." She sipped her tea again as I am trying to figure out what the hell is going on. "Ok, you two please just, shut up for a moment, I'm trying to-" I was interrupted as I was seated by a... giant candle? What the hell is going on!? "Oh, don't mind us, we are talking about me," said Discord. He drank glass then threw the tea itself away, when it landed it exploded into cake. Luna rolled her eyes again. "Sorry for our guess being trouble, We did not want him here," said the blue alicorn, casually sipping her tea. "We shall, how you say, 'fill you in'." "Um, the only answers I need right now is, why am I here?" I asked, drinking, then spitting out the 'tea', for it tasted like chalk. Luna did the same, we both glared at the laughing Discord. "well, we are not sure, and Discord, be a gentle colt and get out, NOW!" As Luna said this, Discord was wiping away chocolate milky tears, alright i am getting tired of this crap, why the hell is this happening? "Now, to answer hty's question about being here, we know about your journey, but thy might have to wait, our sister is in the Crystal Empire, so you will have to wait for maybe, 5-6 weeks." She sipped her tea, I had questions, Discord i- wait, what the hell? "Well demon, it's good to mess with you, but ta-ta!" As Discord says this, an anvil is floating him away, what the actual hell is wrong with that guy? "Okay, um, Luna is it? I dunno what you mean because I wi-- " I was cut off by a bright flash of light. "Is he waking up?" The voice wasn't known to me, I cracked my eye open, to the point no one could know i was awake. "I dunno, but his wings they look... bat-like." said another, almost inaudible, unknown voice. "OH OH, I bet it's because he's like a super-mini-teeny-dragon-pony!!!" said another, excited voice. I bet this mare is had ten cups of coffee "Ah don't know sugar cube, he seems like he's more pony to me." This voice was southern... where the hell am I? "I don't think so Applejack, he has... scales?" I felt a poke and I tried to ignore it. "HEY BUDDY WAKE THE BUCK UP!!!" That voice made me yelp, jump, hit the ceiling, and knock me out cold. ________________________________________________________________________________________ I woke up, rubbing my head and I'm in a... tree? I look around at the bookshelves, oh my Haigia how many books are there? I quietly got up and looked around again, no one's here, good. I quietly crept to the door when I felt something hit me in the back of the head. I woke up shortly. There was a purple blur, but it cleared up. The blur turned out to be a purple alicorn. "OH MY GOSH I AM SO SORRY I PANICKED AND I JUST DID THE FIRST THING THAT CAME TO MY MIND AND I SERIOUSLY DIDN'T MEAN TO KNOCK YOU OUT AGAIN!!!" The voice made me have a headache, it sounded like it was right in my ear. "It's ok, but don't shout in my ear please?" I said, hoping that this alicorn will calm down. "I know you didn't mean to," I smiled a little, maybe she'll calm down after that, but, she was pacing in a circle when I was talking. "Oh how am I gonna make it up to him, it's not like he'll forgive me right off the bat." I rolled my eyes, and got up. "Look, I'm fine, see? Now please calm down." She stopped and sighed with relief. "I am so sorry, I didn't mean to knock you out again, you were sort of..." she trailed off "Scary?" I said "Yes." She admitted, looking down. "Don't worry, I figured that would happen." I smiled, she sheepishly smiled, and the door busted open, making me fly towards the books. "OH OH IS HE AWAKE YET IS HE AWAKE YET!?" A very loud, excited, and quick voiced asked. "Yes, I am very much awake, and hurt." I got up from the books, and looked at the overly excited mare. She was pink with a darker pink mane. "Oopsy, sorry, my name's Pinkie Pie, and I have a party for you!" She pulled me, and I pop up in a room filled with confettu, cake, games. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!?!? "Ok, um, as much as I like parties, I don't have time to-" I was cut off as the pink mare stuffed a cupcake in my mouth. "Welcome to your 'Welcome to Ponyville' party!" Said the mare who I now think is insane. "No no, um, Pinkie, I can't party right now, bye." I said, hastily and walked out. "Okie-dokie-lokie, man, what a party-pooper right?" I had no idea who the hell she was talking to, but then my stomache grumbled. I realized that I was starving, I headed out of the town and saw a farm called, 'Sweet Apple Acres'. I walked over and saw an orange mare heading my way with a cart. "Howdy there newcomer, want a- oh well look at that! You woke up didn't ya?" I realized who's voice that was. "Would you happen to be Applejack?" I asked, knowing the answer "Well aren't you a smart little critter." She said with a smile. "Well, depends, so, how much are the apples?" I asked, licking my lips. "5 bits per apple." She said, as I handed her 5 drachmas. "Um, sir, yer money aint bits," she said, looking a little annoyed. "Oh, wait, not 5 drachmas?" She shook her head. I sighed, "Sorry," I said as i took my money back, my stomache grumbled. "Since yer new here, here's an apple," she said, giving me one apple. I smiled and took it, eating it instantly. "Thanks, I'll get the um, bits for you." I said, waving, and walking back to Ponyville. As I did I saw a rainbow streak through the air, doing loop-de-loops along the way. I squinted my eyes and saw that it was a pony in the air. She was doing tricks that actually impressed me. The mare saw me and started fly towards me. She landed right in front of me, with a smirk "So, you're the weirdo around town huh?" I blinked a few times. "Um, I guess so?" I had no idea what I was getting myself into. "Alright, you, me, race, now." Said the cyan blue pegasus. "How about some other time, I a-" I was cut off by her voice "You chicken?" She said with a smirk, I almost growled, phoenixes, are not, chickens. See, my family is part phoenix and part dragon, thus why my family is the longest living family so far. How the phoenix part came in, I have no idea, I was afraid to ask my father at the time. "No one, calls me, chicken!" I almost yelled angry. "Prove it scaley!" said the ready cyan pegasus, with a smirk. "Where to?" I asked, ready "That cloud over there." She answered, pointing at a cloud near a tall, important looking building. "Alright, 3," I said, flapping my wings a little. "Two," she said, flapping her wings as well "ONE!!!" We both said in unision, flying instantly. I was flying fast, at first, but the rainbow-haired pegasus flew faster then me. I flew faster, catching up a little. She looked back, smirking, but she gasped when she saw that I was catching up. She tried to fly a little faster, but I was at her tail. Then, she stopped, I was quick enough to dodge her, but i flew into the building, making a big dent. "How, *pant* the buck, *pant* did you catch up *pant* to me *pant*?" She asked, wide eyed, and almost gasping for air. "*pant* I don't *pant* know, *pant*." i then had a smirk after I answered to her, and she looked at me very wide eyed now. "You're... You're tough." She said, looking at me, surprised, why is she acting like she was never beaten before? "Thanks, you too... um." I answered, looking at her waiting for her to answer her name. "Name's Rainbow Dash, and you dude, are cool!" I beamed at the compliment, yippee, something good happened to me today. "Thanks, now I need to go now, bye!" I said, waving, flying towards the castle on the mountain. I was guessing that's where the princesses are, so why not? Then, I realized something during my flight there, I made friends? Author's Note Second chapter... hooray... I hope i did a good job this time, so like or comment or whatever Chapter 3: what is friendship?Author's Note Hey guys, sorry that this is bad so far, I can tell because 5 people unliked it :face hoof: sorry, I'll try to be better Chapter 3: what is friendship? Chapter 3: what is friendship? So, bad part about my journey, Celestia was gone. The good thing was though, that I didn't get to the castle. I was at the train station when a blue alicorn flew towards me. "Ah, Fireheart, It is good to see thou before thy goes to thy's train." My jaw almost dropped. "W-wait, Luna? How a-are you here?" I paused. I facehoofed as Luna chuckled. "Ok, so what am I supposed to do?" Luna shrugged. "Thou can be here for the time being." I shook my head. I start feeling a headache. "Alright, I'll stay here, tell me when Celestia is back, so that I can be done with all this?" I looked at Luna, she chuckled again. She nodded and flew off to whoever knows where. "Ok, change of plans... oh boy." I walked back in to Ponyville. What am I gonna do? Well, first things first, better get a house to stay, or rent a place. I walked around, seeing if I could find a place to rent. I saw that I could not rent a place, and my ears drooped. Then, A white, purple maned unicorn walked up. "Excuse me dear, what is the matter?" I looked up. "Nothing miss, carry o-" "Oh don't start dear, I know an upset pony when I see one, now what is the matter?" I had a questioned look but I answered. "See, I have to stay here for a few weeks. Now, I'm not saying this place is bad, but I have to do something important." I wasn't sure if the unicorn was a good pony or not, so I didn't say anything too detailed. "So, what is the problem?" "I don't have a place to stay." I said this, looking down. I was a little bit ashamed, but the unicorn smiled. "Well why didn't you say so? I know a um, quaint house where you can stay, no pony has lived there in years. " I smiled. Then I frowned. "What's the catch?" I asked, looking at her suspiciously. "None at all dear." She smiled. I sighed. "Ok, so what do I have to sign?" I asked. "Oh, well you have to go to town hall, talk to Mayor Mare to get this house." I smiled, some good luck for me for once. "Thank you miss, um..." "My name's Rarity dear, and no problem at all!" I smiled a little bit bigger and walked off ______________________________________________________________________________________________ After a lot of paperwork, I finally got to my for-now-until-I-complete-my-mission-house. For short, I'll call it my house. I beamed at the place. There were creaks, cracks, and old stuff. I sort of like it. I sighed, thinking to myself, I have to get some stuff here, this place looks like a haunted house . I looked around. There was an old, almost stuffed couch, the floor had a couple of holes, and that was it. I did not like this place at all. My stomach growled. But first, I need lunch. I walked out, and the light blinded me. My eyes got used to it and I walked to the weird, ginger-bread house. I definitely like to see the builders for this building to know what the hell were they thinking when they made this building. When I entered this weird place, I saw a blur of pink, and a pink pony was instantly at the counter. "Heya Fireheart!!! I had an AMAZING day..." "Ok Pinkie, tha-" "...and then she was like, WOOSH WOOSH WOOSH..." "Ok, can I-" "OH OH, then she was like, oatmeal, are you cra-" I had no freaking clue on what the hell she's talking about, but I had clamped my hoof against her mouth. I am smiling, because whatever she was talking about was so random. "Can I have something to eat please?" I asked, my stomache growled on cue. "OH! I KNOW THE THING YOU'LL LOVE!!!" I have a bad feeling about this. Pinkie was a blur, she ran to the kitchen, made something, then came back, holding a single layered cake. "N-no thanks I don't like-" "This is a marzipan marmalade madness!!! Or MMM for short!" "That sounds good, but I-" "OH, and the ingredients are-" "PINKIE!!!!!" I yelled loudly. I was heaving a little, while smoke came out of my snout. Pinkie had jumped back, surprised. "I-I'm sorry Firey, I didn't mea-" I put my hoof in her mouth again. "Pinkie, it's OK, I just... Um, I don't like cake, thanks though, but I do want to have a temporary job. Do you know anyone who needs some help?" I smiled weakly as Pinkie's smile went back up, seeing that she didn't do anything bad. "Oh I know! That weather factory in Cloudsdale needs help!" "Um, Cloudsdale right right, um, where is it?" She points up, I look out the window. I gasped, there was a huge-flank cloud-city thing!!! HOW THE BUCK DO THESE ARCHITECTS DO THESE THINGS!!! "Ooooooookaaaaaay, what do they need help on?" "Well, they said that Dashie had an accident with the machine and that she has to clear all the clouds in Cloudsdale!" "Wait, Dashie? Who- oh, you mean Rainbow Dash?" "Yepperrooni!" ________________________________________________________ After what seemed like five minutes, Rainbow dash and I were at the entrance to Cloudsdale. "So Fireheart, ready for a tour? ?" She asked smiling. "Um, I guess so, I am not quite sure about this though..." I trailed off, worried about the other pegasi staring at me. I feel my heart sink when I heard some murmuring by said pegasi. "Don't worry Fire, I'm sure you'll fit right in." Said the cyan pegasis. I raised an eyebrow. "Not sure if you've noticed, but I have scales, do you think I'll fit in by basically being a freak to them?" "With that attitude you're not." She smiled. "Just act casual, OK?" I nodded. We walked around, taking care of some clouds along the way. There were still a few pegasi staring at me. "Hey you, freak, why don't you get outta here!" A pony yelled, throwing something at me. I was hit in the head with a glass bottle, where do ponies find these things? "I'm just helping this mare out dude." I said surprisingly calmly. I hated that guy instantly. "Well I bet you paid her to be around you!" I sighed and kept helping Dash. A few ponies were snickering, and the same stallion walked up. "HEY DID YOU HEAR ME!?" This guy's getting on my nerves. "Leave him alone dude, he hasn't do-" Rainbow was interrupted. "I'm just having a little fun, aint that right boys?" He nudged the others who were still snickering. "Yeah, fun to piss me off..." I muttered, unfortunately, the guy heard me and looked at me chuckling. "Heheh, what? Does the little monster have a bad day? Is he gonna cry?" I puffed smoke from my nose and my ears were flickering. "The buck did you call me?" I stood up, fire in my eyes. "I called you an ugly, scaley, monster. What ya gonna do about it fat-flank?" I growled, I was getting real pissed off now. "Say that again, I didn't hear you." He smiled like a devil and grabbed my mane and pulled me close. "You are a fat-flank, ugly scaley monster." He let me go and I chuckled. "It's a shame you know, cheating on your wife." His smile dissapeared. "What the buck do you mean." Voices were in my head, telling me his dark secrets. Demons like me can find out about stuff like this, and now I got him. His name's Goldflash, his nickname's Gold, the rest is hard to explain, but I am gonna have fun. "You're cheating on your wife Gold, her name's Pearl? Such a nice name for a mare like her. You're also cheating on a mare named Velvet. She's a nice mare too, but you can't choose can you?" I had strucken a huge, bucking, nerve. He grabs me by the neck and holds me in the air. "How did you know that you little buck?" He shook me, and I glared. "Put me down, let me go, don't bother me again or else I'll tell more infront of your little friends." I didn't have a smile, I was actually ashamed of myself. He gently put me down and left while the others were staring at me. I started backing away. I closed my eyes and ran. I can't believed what I had just done. I was starting to cry. I tripped, I can't feel my wings. I screamed as I fell to the ground below me. Chapter 4: conversation with insanityChapter 4: conversation with insanity. I woke up. There were 2 ponies. One was crying, his tears were of... blood. He had cuts and scars and bruises. He was muttering. "I'll get him... I will get revenge... But why me..." The other is chained up, laughing. The laughing was maniacally. His eyes were... scary. He was insane. He was also crying, also with blood. He was smiling widely. He had fangs, sharp as knives. He was screaming in pain as well as laughter. "SOMEONE HELP ME AHAHAHAAA!!! ~~Save us~~ KILL THEM A-HA-ALL!!! NO ONE ~~please save us~~ WILL HELP US NOW!!!" I was shaking. This is all weird. I started backing away when the insane one looked at me. His eyes were that of a maniac. "Hey buddy, come over he- ~~help me~~ -re." I shook my head. Why was this happening? The crying one looked at me. "Go away... we don't want anyo-" He was cut off by insane laughter. "No no no, he's basically us, so why not?" He looks at me. I shook my head. "He also hurt us, broke us, but never fixed us." What did he mean? "Yes, but he can also help us now!" The insane one laughed again, but the sad one shook his head and stood up, but was seated down by the insane one's chains. "He did this to us, true, but let's talk with him first, ya know, see how he is." said the insane one. "W-what?" I was now terrified. "You did this to us Fireheart, you murdered us. Remember? Oh yeah, that's right, you don't. You couldn't remember it, it was 15 years ago." "No, I've never murdered anyone before!" I yelled, he laughed. "Oh really? Here, allow me." He brought out a box with his chains. He opened it, there was a moving picture. "See that Fireheart? That's you." My eyes widened. In the picture, I was killing a stallion. "W-wait, there's only-" "One? Yes we know, but when we say we were murdered, I mean we were changed, but that pony wasn't the only one you killed." I started to back up, but stopped when the sad one looked at me. "We're you Fireheart. I was once your cheerful thoughts, your happy feeling, now, i'm your ever sobbing thirst for revenge." The insane one laughed after the sad one stopped. "I-I was your sense of goodness, I used to care about how people were, and make you care, but now, I'VE LOST MY DAMN MIND AHAHAHAAAA!!!" "Can we kill him now, for changing us?" "Well, then in that case, ~~RUN~~ he should be running!" He stood up, the chains fell, and they start walking towards me. "Sleepy sleepy sleepy time, now it's time to die. You shall die, but we will too, that's a part of life." I back up. "Sleepy sleepy sleepy time, now it's time to die, you will, but now not I, that's a part of life." I ran, hearing those lyrics again and again. "Oh look ~~SAVE YOURSELF~~ he's running, aint that fun, HAHAHA!!!" I was scared now. "Oh don't worry Fireheart, we will be a little merciful and give you a chance, unlike you." "Oh, you're too kind, Fireheart should be killed here and now!" I started crying, I felt pain. "No, we need him to see what a little mercy is like." The pain shot through my leg and I fell. " Sleepy sleepy sleepy time, now it's time to die~." "NO PLEASE I BEG YOU!!!" I screamed. I was crying blood, pain was going through my entire body. "You will die, but now I, that's... a part... of life..." The song stopped, laughter in the air. Then, a huge feeling of pain shot through me, blood started to appear on the floor. I was crying, sobbing, screaming. Chapter 5: questions and answersSomething has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.Chapter 6: Can't see through me, but can through themChapter 6: Can't see through me, but can through them, Son.Of.A.Bitch. I sighed, out of all the times I could have a nightmare, at least this time. I have been in this dark place for over a few hours ever since that cow-mare hit me in the friggen head with a shovel. A FRIGGEN SHOVEL!!! I sighed again. I better see what the hell these ponies are doing. Meanwhile in Twilight's POV: "WHY DID YOU HIT HIM WITH A SHOVEL!?" I yelled loud while Fireheart was knocked out on the floor. "DIDN'T YA SEE 'IM!? HE WAS MOVING LIKE A MANIAC!!!" Applejack yelled back. "YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO HIT HIM!!!" Fluttershy was making sure that Fireheart was ok, Rainbow Dash was trying to wake him up again, and Pinkie was making a banner that said 'Happy Waking Up Day!' "THEN WHAT THE HAY WAS I SUPPOSE TO DO?! LET HIM TRY TO KILL US OR SOMETHIN'?" I facehoofed. I calmed down a little before speaking. "You could have tied him with a rope, tightly." Applejack shook her head. "I'm sorry sugercube, but somethin' aint right with this pony. He seems... paranormal." I rolled my eyes. "Well, he did just say that he was a demon." Applejack shook her head again. "No, not that way, I have a bad feelin' about 'im." She looked at Fireheart. "I'll go get some bandadges." Fluttershy said, as she left. "I'll go get some ice, Applejack hit him pretty hard." said RD, who started to walk with Fluttershy. "Well, I'll have to go get Spike." I said, remembering that Spike needed to help Rarity with a new project. "Well, ahm staying, ah'll keep an eye on this demon." She eyed Fireheart, who's still knocked out. "Alright, well, we'll be back, don't do anything to him." She nodded as we left. Fireheart's POV: OH CRAP DON'T GO... crap. Applejack's POV: I looked at the demon that seemed dead on the floor. Something does not seem right to me. I am not entirely sure that he is, sane. I heard something upstairs and decided to see what it is. When I looked upstairs, there was nothing. I swore I saw something, and heard. I then heard voices. What the hay? I looked downstairs and gasped. He's gone. I backed up. This is definitely not natural. I started to hear the voice even louder. "Save us Applejack, save us." "WHERE ARE YA!!! SHOW YERSELF YOU COWARD!!!" I yelled through the house. I then started to hear the voice clearly. My heart froze. Applebloom! I ran around the house, searching franticly. "Looking for something?" That voice. That damn basterd. "COME HERE YOU BASTERD!!! WHERE THE BUCK IS APPLEBLOOM!?!?" I glared daggers around, trying to see where he is. He laughed softly. "Don't worry, she's safe..." I growled. Her voice was crying out for help. "SHE DOESN'T SOUND SAFE!!!" I saw him. I started running. He was... smiling? Wait. I'm not moving. I'M NOT MOVING!!! I tried to move, but something was holding me. I looked to see what, and I grew scared. Chains were holding me in place. I looked up. He was walking towards me, smiling like a devil. He had a scalpel. I tried to move, but I had failed. "Oh Applejack, if only you knew... I am not Fireheart, I am merely one of his... emotions." He started laughing like a maniac. Then, everything went dark. Twilight's POV: I blasted my magic to the door again. My door finally broke open. I gasped looking inside. Applejack was laying there, shaking, paranoid. "PLEASE DON'T HURT ME!!!" She screamed in pain, and I stood, petrified. Fireheart's POV: I gasped, waking up. I had tears running down my face. I had seen myself. I had watched myself torture Applejack. I was shaking and I looked at the petrified alicorn and paranoid earth pony. "Hey Twilight, what're y- WHAT THE BUCK!?" Rainbow Dash had apparently seen Twilight petrified in shock and came to see what's going on. "T-Tilight, I-I-I didn't me-" "Get out." She muttered. I was still. "I said GET OUT!" She blasted at me with magic, and I vanished, appearing outside of Ponyville. I fell down. I heard a laughter. "Why if it isn't you~" Said a voice that I didn't hear for a little time. "Discord?" I looked behind myself to see the same, insane mix-mashed creature. Yep, it's Discord. Author's Note Well... aint this gonna be fun Chapter 7: No needs... just beliefs Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.
Chapter 1: what was I thinking?Chapter 1: what was I thinking? Ok, where should I begin... oh yeah, when I made a stupid mistake, this'll be sooo easy. now, let's start from the beginning.... I woke up, yawning, stretching my bat-winged limbs, after an entire night of sleeping. "I hope I don't have too much work today as usual." I looked out the window, and sighed, looking at the statue of our ruler, The One, who is the ruler of the world I live in, called the Underworld, it's nice, due to the fact that I am a demon. I walked to the same broken mirror that always seemed boring and shattered. I still saw that same black fur coated demon, with red eyes. I sighed again and got out. "Fireheart, so nice to see you, now go to work, we don't want another incident like last time." I saluted, not really caring, "Oh no sir, I certainly don't want trouble". "Good demon, now, you can work by going to get us all lunch". I almost scoffed, but held my tounge. "Why can't you get lunch?" He rolled his eyes. "Fireheart, you are gonna meet The One today, I dunno bout you, but I think I like my head where it is thanks." I gave him a 'do you really think I'll fall for it again?', due to every time he said that, I wind up working anyway. Thus I said, "Sir, can you not give me sarcasm this time." I then had a, 'I don't want to deal with a lot of jokes because I might punch you hard enough to make ya go to the hospital' face. "Fireheart, this time I am not kidding... You'll actually meet him today." I almost peed, usually something bad had happened to a demon when they messed stuff up, and then they meet The One. "I-Inferno, y-you better not be messing with me." He frowned. "Fireheart, out all the times I have ever joked with you, this aint one of those times," yep, he aint jokin, and I will be in deep, deep hot water. I am shaking, The One, was my ruler, and I am meeting him, how can i not be scared? I looked around the room I was in, which was huge to me. I was sitting on a red cushion, which was comfy to me, then there was the huge, crystal-like chandelier. There was a stone, granite table in front of me. Paintings of other rulers of the underworld were lined on the walls. I swear I felt my heart drop when the doors open, then, there stood the most fearful, yet awesome ruler of the underworld. "Hello Fireheart, thank you for coming here, I need some hel-" He was interrupted I fell on my knees and yelled scared. "PLEASE DON'T BANISH ME I DIDN'T MEAN TO DO IT PLEASE!!!" The One, shaken a little, looked at me. He started chuckling and said gently, "Calm down Fireheart, I only ask in need of help." His appearance now being a little more friendly started to registered in my head. His grey coat, slick black hair, and gentle, yet fearful blood red eyes. "Fireheart, I need a favor, as you know, Equestria is a little untrustful of us, and we need to make a treaty," I tilted my head. " Why me? Why me out of all the other demons out there?" I looked at him, still a little afraid. He smiled and looked up in thought, "Well, I have heard of your interactions with others, from Euqestria. You have the best experience." I blink a few times, The One who ruled the underworld was telling me to go on a possibly dangerous mission to an unknown area in which I was to go to make a negotiation. I stood up, and saluted. " YES SIR RULER SIR!" He puts a hoof on me. "just call me by my name, Haigia, now go, go to two princesses named Celestia, and Luna, negotiate, then report back to me, clear?" I nodded and sped off, almost about to explode with the smile I have, which faded, I had no idea where Equestria is though. I walked back and asked feeling embarrassed little. " Say, Haigia, where is Equestria?" He chuckled, and said in his gentle voice, "Equestria is near out gates, go through them, then the forest, and you will be in Equestria, they might not see you friendly though, so be as quiet as possible." I nodded, and walked off. As I was walking, i thought of something, what if they don't accept me at all? I shook my head, oh Fire, why are thinking about this, they might be friendly, they ponies after all. I kept walking, but stopped, thinking again, then again, they don't know anything about demons like me, they might capture me, torture me, or worse, kill me! I slapped myself, literally. FIRE!!! You were chosen for this kinda stuff, you should demon up. I looked at the gates, they were standing tall, strong, and fearless... if that makes sense. Oh well, let's do this _______________________________________________________________________________________________ I swear I am about to scream, the guards at the gate were skeptical and it took a meeting with Haigia to convince them that I am not smuggling anything. They even hit me with a friggen pipe, i dunno where it came from but they had one. When they interrogated me because they thought I was some sorta spy. When they found out I wasn't, they were as pale as the moon. They practically begged me not to tell Haigia, I was very tempted to though. In the end, I forgave them, they were doing their job after all. The thing that bothered me though was that I was hit with something that seemed silly, but hey, it made me chuckle. The bump on my head hurts though. They gave me some weird medicine though... I decided i shouldn't bother about it, the guards are always weird. I sometimes think that they are insane and that they might have stolen something. I walked out to the Overworld, aka, Equestria. I took a deep breath and screamed so loud, I swear someone from the huge castle on the mountain could hear me. I walked down a path in a forest, it wasn't too bad, but then, I heard howl in the distance, I think my heart stopped. Two timberwolves were circling me in 5 minutes, one thought occurred to me, what in the actual hell was i thinking? What, in all of, well, Equestria, was I thinking. I was petrified, but I was holding my ground. I growled, my eyes turning cat-like. "COME AT ME DOGS!!!!!!" That was a mistake, one timberwolf charged at me, but before it struck me, I jumped up. The timberwolf accidentally ran into the other, which made that one angry, and he tried to headbutt the other off of him, but he failed, which made his situation worse than before. I couldn't help but chuckle, they were idiots. I clamped my mouth shut, because then they glared at me, snarling. "Oh boy, well it was fun being a pray and all, but i gotta go... so see ya!" With that, I ran like hell. I stopped, I am almost lost in this forest, that and it freaks me out. Stuff is moving, living, and growing on their own. I wondered what it looks like above. I then, smacked myself in the face, I had wings... I have friggen wings... Why didn't I think of that before? Oh yeah, I was being chased by malicious wolves made out of toothpicks. I flew up, and sighed with relief, there was a village or town, or something like that. I went there, and when I got out and into the streets, I finaly realized it was night time, and when I figured that I could walk around for a few minutes, looking at everything. I looked around this weird town and found out that this town, is problably the weirdest, strangest place I've ever been. I even made a note to ask these ponies what the actual hell they did with the town. When i got to what looks like the entrance, everything went black. I felt like I opened my eyes, no, I am in a dream. How do I know, well I know for one, that physics does not let me hang upside down on the moon, looking down at everyone. I look around, I was in a lucid dream? "This is... weird." I looked around again and saw two figures, one was weirdly shaped and the other was an alicorn. Author's Note Hey, this is the first one i written, if you like it, go ahead and like it, if you think it's bad, please tell me why or how, i want to get better at writing as i continue, so i will listen to you guys. Oh, and this was edited by Paper Scribbles because I kept messing it up.
Chapter 2: Meeting the newcomerChapter 2: Meeting the newcomer I tilted my head. The strangely figured one, was... well... strange. It had two, different antlers, one lion paw, one eagle talon, one bat wing, one pegasus wing, one lizard leg, one deer leg, one long tooth, a head of a grey horse, I think, and the mane of a donkey. The first thought came to me very clear... What.The.Hell. What the actual hell is this guy? Well anyway, the other figure, was an alicorn, a deep blue one with a moon cutie mark. Her mane was a little strange, but it was flowing, and, wait, sparkling? Seriously what the hell, how the hell is it sparkly? I swear I might have some side affects from that forest. The alicorn looked at me and smiled, and she yelled loudly, "WELCOME THY CITIZEN!!!" I covered my ears, that was so friggen loud! She face hoofed, "Sorry, we are not yet accustomed to thy usual language of speech." I tilted my head "Let me translate you demon, she is not used to talking normally, so please excuse her for her yelling and weird talking." The weird one said all this casually... wait were they drinking tea? The weird one snapped and had a pie with a bomb in i- WAIT THERE'S A BOMB!? "Would you like to have some pie? it surely is a blast. "THERE'S A FRIGGEN BOMB AND YOU'RE MAKING PUNS?!" I yelled, while the alicorn was making a facehoof. "Discord, please stop with thy shenanigans," said the alicorn. She took a sip of tea while, I assume, Discord is rolling in the air laughing. "Oh Luna, learn to take a joooke, it's all in good fun!" Said Discord. He threw the pie in the air and it turned into... dynamite? Luna rolled her eyes, "We would take it, but thy jokes had always, exploded on us." She sipped her tea again as I am trying to figure out what the hell is going on. "Ok, you two please just, shut up for a moment, I'm trying to-" I was interrupted as I was seated by a... giant candle? What the hell is going on!? "Oh, don't mind us, we are talking about me," said Discord. He drank glass then threw the tea itself away, when it landed it exploded into cake. Luna rolled her eyes again. "Sorry for our guess being trouble, We did not want him here," said the blue alicorn, casually sipping her tea. "We shall, how you say, 'fill you in'." "Um, the only answers I need right now is, why am I here?" I asked, drinking, then spitting out the 'tea', for it tasted like chalk. Luna did the same, we both glared at the laughing Discord. "well, we are not sure, and Discord, be a gentle colt and get out, NOW!" As Luna said this, Discord was wiping away chocolate milky tears, alright i am getting tired of this crap, why the hell is this happening? "Now, to answer hty's question about being here, we know about your journey, but thy might have to wait, our sister is in the Crystal Empire, so you will have to wait for maybe, 5-6 weeks." She sipped her tea, I had questions, Discord i- wait, what the hell? "Well demon, it's good to mess with you, but ta-ta!" As Discord says this, an anvil is floating him away, what the actual hell is wrong with that guy? "Okay, um, Luna is it? I dunno what you mean because I wi-- " I was cut off by a bright flash of light. "Is he waking up?" The voice wasn't known to me, I cracked my eye open, to the point no one could know i was awake. "I dunno, but his wings they look... bat-like." said another, almost inaudible, unknown voice. "OH OH, I bet it's because he's like a super-mini-teeny-dragon-pony!!!" said another, excited voice. I bet this mare is had ten cups of coffee "Ah don't know sugar cube, he seems like he's more pony to me." This voice was southern... where the hell am I? "I don't think so Applejack, he has... scales?" I felt a poke and I tried to ignore it. "HEY BUDDY WAKE THE BUCK UP!!!" That voice made me yelp, jump, hit the ceiling, and knock me out cold. ________________________________________________________________________________________ I woke up, rubbing my head and I'm in a... tree? I look around at the bookshelves, oh my Haigia how many books are there? I quietly got up and looked around again, no one's here, good. I quietly crept to the door when I felt something hit me in the back of the head. I woke up shortly. There was a purple blur, but it cleared up. The blur turned out to be a purple alicorn. "OH MY GOSH I AM SO SORRY I PANICKED AND I JUST DID THE FIRST THING THAT CAME TO MY MIND AND I SERIOUSLY DIDN'T MEAN TO KNOCK YOU OUT AGAIN!!!" The voice made me have a headache, it sounded like it was right in my ear. "It's ok, but don't shout in my ear please?" I said, hoping that this alicorn will calm down. "I know you didn't mean to," I smiled a little, maybe she'll calm down after that, but, she was pacing in a circle when I was talking. "Oh how am I gonna make it up to him, it's not like he'll forgive me right off the bat." I rolled my eyes, and got up. "Look, I'm fine, see? Now please calm down." She stopped and sighed with relief. "I am so sorry, I didn't mean to knock you out again, you were sort of..." she trailed off "Scary?" I said "Yes." She admitted, looking down. "Don't worry, I figured that would happen." I smiled, she sheepishly smiled, and the door busted open, making me fly towards the books. "OH OH IS HE AWAKE YET IS HE AWAKE YET!?" A very loud, excited, and quick voiced asked. "Yes, I am very much awake, and hurt." I got up from the books, and looked at the overly excited mare. She was pink with a darker pink mane. "Oopsy, sorry, my name's Pinkie Pie, and I have a party for you!" She pulled me, and I pop up in a room filled with confettu, cake, games. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!?!? "Ok, um, as much as I like parties, I don't have time to-" I was cut off as the pink mare stuffed a cupcake in my mouth. "Welcome to your 'Welcome to Ponyville' party!" Said the mare who I now think is insane. "No no, um, Pinkie, I can't party right now, bye." I said, hastily and walked out. "Okie-dokie-lokie, man, what a party-pooper right?" I had no idea who the hell she was talking to, but then my stomache grumbled. I realized that I was starving, I headed out of the town and saw a farm called, 'Sweet Apple Acres'. I walked over and saw an orange mare heading my way with a cart. "Howdy there newcomer, want a- oh well look at that! You woke up didn't ya?" I realized who's voice that was. "Would you happen to be Applejack?" I asked, knowing the answer "Well aren't you a smart little critter." She said with a smile. "Well, depends, so, how much are the apples?" I asked, licking my lips. "5 bits per apple." She said, as I handed her 5 drachmas. "Um, sir, yer money aint bits," she said, looking a little annoyed. "Oh, wait, not 5 drachmas?" She shook her head. I sighed, "Sorry," I said as i took my money back, my stomache grumbled. "Since yer new here, here's an apple," she said, giving me one apple. I smiled and took it, eating it instantly. "Thanks, I'll get the um, bits for you." I said, waving, and walking back to Ponyville. As I did I saw a rainbow streak through the air, doing loop-de-loops along the way. I squinted my eyes and saw that it was a pony in the air. She was doing tricks that actually impressed me. The mare saw me and started fly towards me. She landed right in front of me, with a smirk "So, you're the weirdo around town huh?" I blinked a few times. "Um, I guess so?" I had no idea what I was getting myself into. "Alright, you, me, race, now." Said the cyan blue pegasus. "How about some other time, I a-" I was cut off by her voice "You chicken?" She said with a smirk, I almost growled, phoenixes, are not, chickens. See, my family is part phoenix and part dragon, thus why my family is the longest living family so far. How the phoenix part came in, I have no idea, I was afraid to ask my father at the time. "No one, calls me, chicken!" I almost yelled angry. "Prove it scaley!" said the ready cyan pegasus, with a smirk. "Where to?" I asked, ready "That cloud over there." She answered, pointing at a cloud near a tall, important looking building. "Alright, 3," I said, flapping my wings a little. "Two," she said, flapping her wings as well "ONE!!!" We both said in unision, flying instantly. I was flying fast, at first, but the rainbow-haired pegasus flew faster then me. I flew faster, catching up a little. She looked back, smirking, but she gasped when she saw that I was catching up. She tried to fly a little faster, but I was at her tail. Then, she stopped, I was quick enough to dodge her, but i flew into the building, making a big dent. "How, *pant* the buck, *pant* did you catch up *pant* to me *pant*?" She asked, wide eyed, and almost gasping for air. "*pant* I don't *pant* know, *pant*." i then had a smirk after I answered to her, and she looked at me very wide eyed now. "You're... You're tough." She said, looking at me, surprised, why is she acting like she was never beaten before? "Thanks, you too... um." I answered, looking at her waiting for her to answer her name. "Name's Rainbow Dash, and you dude, are cool!" I beamed at the compliment, yippee, something good happened to me today. "Thanks, now I need to go now, bye!" I said, waving, flying towards the castle on the mountain. I was guessing that's where the princesses are, so why not? Then, I realized something during my flight there, I made friends? Author's Note Second chapter... hooray... I hope i did a good job this time, so like or comment or whatever
Chapter 3: what is friendship?Author's Note Hey guys, sorry that this is bad so far, I can tell because 5 people unliked it :face hoof: sorry, I'll try to be better Chapter 3: what is friendship? Chapter 3: what is friendship? So, bad part about my journey, Celestia was gone. The good thing was though, that I didn't get to the castle. I was at the train station when a blue alicorn flew towards me. "Ah, Fireheart, It is good to see thou before thy goes to thy's train." My jaw almost dropped. "W-wait, Luna? How a-are you here?" I paused. I facehoofed as Luna chuckled. "Ok, so what am I supposed to do?" Luna shrugged. "Thou can be here for the time being." I shook my head. I start feeling a headache. "Alright, I'll stay here, tell me when Celestia is back, so that I can be done with all this?" I looked at Luna, she chuckled again. She nodded and flew off to whoever knows where. "Ok, change of plans... oh boy." I walked back in to Ponyville. What am I gonna do? Well, first things first, better get a house to stay, or rent a place. I walked around, seeing if I could find a place to rent. I saw that I could not rent a place, and my ears drooped. Then, A white, purple maned unicorn walked up. "Excuse me dear, what is the matter?" I looked up. "Nothing miss, carry o-" "Oh don't start dear, I know an upset pony when I see one, now what is the matter?" I had a questioned look but I answered. "See, I have to stay here for a few weeks. Now, I'm not saying this place is bad, but I have to do something important." I wasn't sure if the unicorn was a good pony or not, so I didn't say anything too detailed. "So, what is the problem?" "I don't have a place to stay." I said this, looking down. I was a little bit ashamed, but the unicorn smiled. "Well why didn't you say so? I know a um, quaint house where you can stay, no pony has lived there in years. " I smiled. Then I frowned. "What's the catch?" I asked, looking at her suspiciously. "None at all dear." She smiled. I sighed. "Ok, so what do I have to sign?" I asked. "Oh, well you have to go to town hall, talk to Mayor Mare to get this house." I smiled, some good luck for me for once. "Thank you miss, um..." "My name's Rarity dear, and no problem at all!" I smiled a little bit bigger and walked off ______________________________________________________________________________________________ After a lot of paperwork, I finally got to my for-now-until-I-complete-my-mission-house. For short, I'll call it my house. I beamed at the place. There were creaks, cracks, and old stuff. I sort of like it. I sighed, thinking to myself, I have to get some stuff here, this place looks like a haunted house . I looked around. There was an old, almost stuffed couch, the floor had a couple of holes, and that was it. I did not like this place at all. My stomach growled. But first, I need lunch. I walked out, and the light blinded me. My eyes got used to it and I walked to the weird, ginger-bread house. I definitely like to see the builders for this building to know what the hell were they thinking when they made this building. When I entered this weird place, I saw a blur of pink, and a pink pony was instantly at the counter. "Heya Fireheart!!! I had an AMAZING day..." "Ok Pinkie, tha-" "...and then she was like, WOOSH WOOSH WOOSH..." "Ok, can I-" "OH OH, then she was like, oatmeal, are you cra-" I had no freaking clue on what the hell she's talking about, but I had clamped my hoof against her mouth. I am smiling, because whatever she was talking about was so random. "Can I have something to eat please?" I asked, my stomache growled on cue. "OH! I KNOW THE THING YOU'LL LOVE!!!" I have a bad feeling about this. Pinkie was a blur, she ran to the kitchen, made something, then came back, holding a single layered cake. "N-no thanks I don't like-" "This is a marzipan marmalade madness!!! Or MMM for short!" "That sounds good, but I-" "OH, and the ingredients are-" "PINKIE!!!!!" I yelled loudly. I was heaving a little, while smoke came out of my snout. Pinkie had jumped back, surprised. "I-I'm sorry Firey, I didn't mea-" I put my hoof in her mouth again. "Pinkie, it's OK, I just... Um, I don't like cake, thanks though, but I do want to have a temporary job. Do you know anyone who needs some help?" I smiled weakly as Pinkie's smile went back up, seeing that she didn't do anything bad. "Oh I know! That weather factory in Cloudsdale needs help!" "Um, Cloudsdale right right, um, where is it?" She points up, I look out the window. I gasped, there was a huge-flank cloud-city thing!!! HOW THE BUCK DO THESE ARCHITECTS DO THESE THINGS!!! "Ooooooookaaaaaay, what do they need help on?" "Well, they said that Dashie had an accident with the machine and that she has to clear all the clouds in Cloudsdale!" "Wait, Dashie? Who- oh, you mean Rainbow Dash?" "Yepperrooni!" ________________________________________________________ After what seemed like five minutes, Rainbow dash and I were at the entrance to Cloudsdale. "So Fireheart, ready for a tour? ?" She asked smiling. "Um, I guess so, I am not quite sure about this though..." I trailed off, worried about the other pegasi staring at me. I feel my heart sink when I heard some murmuring by said pegasi. "Don't worry Fire, I'm sure you'll fit right in." Said the cyan pegasis. I raised an eyebrow. "Not sure if you've noticed, but I have scales, do you think I'll fit in by basically being a freak to them?" "With that attitude you're not." She smiled. "Just act casual, OK?" I nodded. We walked around, taking care of some clouds along the way. There were still a few pegasi staring at me. "Hey you, freak, why don't you get outta here!" A pony yelled, throwing something at me. I was hit in the head with a glass bottle, where do ponies find these things? "I'm just helping this mare out dude." I said surprisingly calmly. I hated that guy instantly. "Well I bet you paid her to be around you!" I sighed and kept helping Dash. A few ponies were snickering, and the same stallion walked up. "HEY DID YOU HEAR ME!?" This guy's getting on my nerves. "Leave him alone dude, he hasn't do-" Rainbow was interrupted. "I'm just having a little fun, aint that right boys?" He nudged the others who were still snickering. "Yeah, fun to piss me off..." I muttered, unfortunately, the guy heard me and looked at me chuckling. "Heheh, what? Does the little monster have a bad day? Is he gonna cry?" I puffed smoke from my nose and my ears were flickering. "The buck did you call me?" I stood up, fire in my eyes. "I called you an ugly, scaley, monster. What ya gonna do about it fat-flank?" I growled, I was getting real pissed off now. "Say that again, I didn't hear you." He smiled like a devil and grabbed my mane and pulled me close. "You are a fat-flank, ugly scaley monster." He let me go and I chuckled. "It's a shame you know, cheating on your wife." His smile dissapeared. "What the buck do you mean." Voices were in my head, telling me his dark secrets. Demons like me can find out about stuff like this, and now I got him. His name's Goldflash, his nickname's Gold, the rest is hard to explain, but I am gonna have fun. "You're cheating on your wife Gold, her name's Pearl? Such a nice name for a mare like her. You're also cheating on a mare named Velvet. She's a nice mare too, but you can't choose can you?" I had strucken a huge, bucking, nerve. He grabs me by the neck and holds me in the air. "How did you know that you little buck?" He shook me, and I glared. "Put me down, let me go, don't bother me again or else I'll tell more infront of your little friends." I didn't have a smile, I was actually ashamed of myself. He gently put me down and left while the others were staring at me. I started backing away. I closed my eyes and ran. I can't believed what I had just done. I was starting to cry. I tripped, I can't feel my wings. I screamed as I fell to the ground below me.
Chapter 4: conversation with insanityChapter 4: conversation with insanity. I woke up. There were 2 ponies. One was crying, his tears were of... blood. He had cuts and scars and bruises. He was muttering. "I'll get him... I will get revenge... But why me..." The other is chained up, laughing. The laughing was maniacally. His eyes were... scary. He was insane. He was also crying, also with blood. He was smiling widely. He had fangs, sharp as knives. He was screaming in pain as well as laughter. "SOMEONE HELP ME AHAHAHAAA!!! ~~Save us~~ KILL THEM A-HA-ALL!!! NO ONE ~~please save us~~ WILL HELP US NOW!!!" I was shaking. This is all weird. I started backing away when the insane one looked at me. His eyes were that of a maniac. "Hey buddy, come over he- ~~help me~~ -re." I shook my head. Why was this happening? The crying one looked at me. "Go away... we don't want anyo-" He was cut off by insane laughter. "No no no, he's basically us, so why not?" He looks at me. I shook my head. "He also hurt us, broke us, but never fixed us." What did he mean? "Yes, but he can also help us now!" The insane one laughed again, but the sad one shook his head and stood up, but was seated down by the insane one's chains. "He did this to us, true, but let's talk with him first, ya know, see how he is." said the insane one. "W-what?" I was now terrified. "You did this to us Fireheart, you murdered us. Remember? Oh yeah, that's right, you don't. You couldn't remember it, it was 15 years ago." "No, I've never murdered anyone before!" I yelled, he laughed. "Oh really? Here, allow me." He brought out a box with his chains. He opened it, there was a moving picture. "See that Fireheart? That's you." My eyes widened. In the picture, I was killing a stallion. "W-wait, there's only-" "One? Yes we know, but when we say we were murdered, I mean we were changed, but that pony wasn't the only one you killed." I started to back up, but stopped when the sad one looked at me. "We're you Fireheart. I was once your cheerful thoughts, your happy feeling, now, i'm your ever sobbing thirst for revenge." The insane one laughed after the sad one stopped. "I-I was your sense of goodness, I used to care about how people were, and make you care, but now, I'VE LOST MY DAMN MIND AHAHAHAAAA!!!" "Can we kill him now, for changing us?" "Well, then in that case, ~~RUN~~ he should be running!" He stood up, the chains fell, and they start walking towards me. "Sleepy sleepy sleepy time, now it's time to die. You shall die, but we will too, that's a part of life." I back up. "Sleepy sleepy sleepy time, now it's time to die, you will, but now not I, that's a part of life." I ran, hearing those lyrics again and again. "Oh look ~~SAVE YOURSELF~~ he's running, aint that fun, HAHAHA!!!" I was scared now. "Oh don't worry Fireheart, we will be a little merciful and give you a chance, unlike you." "Oh, you're too kind, Fireheart should be killed here and now!" I started crying, I felt pain. "No, we need him to see what a little mercy is like." The pain shot through my leg and I fell. " Sleepy sleepy sleepy time, now it's time to die~." "NO PLEASE I BEG YOU!!!" I screamed. I was crying blood, pain was going through my entire body. "You will die, but now I, that's... a part... of life..." The song stopped, laughter in the air. Then, a huge feeling of pain shot through me, blood started to appear on the floor. I was crying, sobbing, screaming.

Chapter 6: Can't see through me, but can through themChapter 6: Can't see through me, but can through them, Son.Of.A.Bitch. I sighed, out of all the times I could have a nightmare, at least this time. I have been in this dark place for over a few hours ever since that cow-mare hit me in the friggen head with a shovel. A FRIGGEN SHOVEL!!! I sighed again. I better see what the hell these ponies are doing. Meanwhile in Twilight's POV: "WHY DID YOU HIT HIM WITH A SHOVEL!?" I yelled loud while Fireheart was knocked out on the floor. "DIDN'T YA SEE 'IM!? HE WAS MOVING LIKE A MANIAC!!!" Applejack yelled back. "YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO HIT HIM!!!" Fluttershy was making sure that Fireheart was ok, Rainbow Dash was trying to wake him up again, and Pinkie was making a banner that said 'Happy Waking Up Day!' "THEN WHAT THE HAY WAS I SUPPOSE TO DO?! LET HIM TRY TO KILL US OR SOMETHIN'?" I facehoofed. I calmed down a little before speaking. "You could have tied him with a rope, tightly." Applejack shook her head. "I'm sorry sugercube, but somethin' aint right with this pony. He seems... paranormal." I rolled my eyes. "Well, he did just say that he was a demon." Applejack shook her head again. "No, not that way, I have a bad feelin' about 'im." She looked at Fireheart. "I'll go get some bandadges." Fluttershy said, as she left. "I'll go get some ice, Applejack hit him pretty hard." said RD, who started to walk with Fluttershy. "Well, I'll have to go get Spike." I said, remembering that Spike needed to help Rarity with a new project. "Well, ahm staying, ah'll keep an eye on this demon." She eyed Fireheart, who's still knocked out. "Alright, well, we'll be back, don't do anything to him." She nodded as we left. Fireheart's POV: OH CRAP DON'T GO... crap. Applejack's POV: I looked at the demon that seemed dead on the floor. Something does not seem right to me. I am not entirely sure that he is, sane. I heard something upstairs and decided to see what it is. When I looked upstairs, there was nothing. I swore I saw something, and heard. I then heard voices. What the hay? I looked downstairs and gasped. He's gone. I backed up. This is definitely not natural. I started to hear the voice even louder. "Save us Applejack, save us." "WHERE ARE YA!!! SHOW YERSELF YOU COWARD!!!" I yelled through the house. I then started to hear the voice clearly. My heart froze. Applebloom! I ran around the house, searching franticly. "Looking for something?" That voice. That damn basterd. "COME HERE YOU BASTERD!!! WHERE THE BUCK IS APPLEBLOOM!?!?" I glared daggers around, trying to see where he is. He laughed softly. "Don't worry, she's safe..." I growled. Her voice was crying out for help. "SHE DOESN'T SOUND SAFE!!!" I saw him. I started running. He was... smiling? Wait. I'm not moving. I'M NOT MOVING!!! I tried to move, but something was holding me. I looked to see what, and I grew scared. Chains were holding me in place. I looked up. He was walking towards me, smiling like a devil. He had a scalpel. I tried to move, but I had failed. "Oh Applejack, if only you knew... I am not Fireheart, I am merely one of his... emotions." He started laughing like a maniac. Then, everything went dark. Twilight's POV: I blasted my magic to the door again. My door finally broke open. I gasped looking inside. Applejack was laying there, shaking, paranoid. "PLEASE DON'T HURT ME!!!" She screamed in pain, and I stood, petrified. Fireheart's POV: I gasped, waking up. I had tears running down my face. I had seen myself. I had watched myself torture Applejack. I was shaking and I looked at the petrified alicorn and paranoid earth pony. "Hey Twilight, what're y- WHAT THE BUCK!?" Rainbow Dash had apparently seen Twilight petrified in shock and came to see what's going on. "T-Tilight, I-I-I didn't me-" "Get out." She muttered. I was still. "I said GET OUT!" She blasted at me with magic, and I vanished, appearing outside of Ponyville. I fell down. I heard a laughter. "Why if it isn't you~" Said a voice that I didn't hear for a little time. "Discord?" I looked behind myself to see the same, insane mix-mashed creature. Yep, it's Discord. Author's Note Well... aint this gonna be fun
