chapter 1: is this my life now
Yeah this is me,
Running through a Forrest with a pack of wooden wolfs chasing me,
while three little fillies hold to my chest for dear life and I have one question that's racing around my head and it's not why I'm being chased by a pack of wooden nightmares or why I'm carrying three little fillies while being chased by the wooden nightmares.
The question that's going through my head is how the fuck did this happen?
24 hours ago
It was just a normal day when it started get up, get changed, have breakfast and get to collage but that's where this normal routine began to change there was something going on in the cafeteria, everyone was on edge. So I went over to see what was going on ''HEY JASON''
I turned round to see who was calling me "oh hey Chris what's up?" I replied,
this is Chris he's been my friend for a while now he's helped me through the highs and lows I normally go round to his have a beer or two and talk about my problems I'm a bit of a loner so he's pretty much my only friend, Chris tends to know what's going on so I should get some answers I need
"another murder happened last night this time even closer to campus"
another one seriously wow, the killings started just over a month ago and the guy the that does it is a real psycho and worst part is he does fucked up things with the body's normally nailing them to sign posts and the he tortures the victims then leaves them there to die. Yeah I know screwed up right and each attack has been getting closer to the collage, no wonder everyone is on edge.
The police had set up a perimeter around the collage so no one can get in, the only problem is that it meant no one could get out.
"Huh am I asleep I don't know I can't open my eyes"
I suddenly awoke "had that been a dream"
I'd muttered until I found myself tied to a chair duct tape covering by mouth.
what the hell is going on I thought, I didn't have to wait long to find out when a tall man walked in wearing a white apron, trousers and white coat that only problem is the red splatter marks aren't part of the design and neither was the meat cleaver, he came over to me whistling singing in the rain, he stopped a metre on front me the fell dead silent and that's when I recognised him memories came flooding in.
seven years ago
Him standing over my bed holding a blade covered in blood, as he came closer I could see my mom and dad dead in the hallway and when that happened I found out I was not normal kid.
"now I want you to scream as loud as you can kid because this is gonna hurt" he chuckled as the blade slowly came towards my eye
"no" I replied in the most hollow way I could say it
"what" this time he look confused and furious at the same time "I said I won't scream" suddenly my eyes erupted with blue flames along with the killers arm, he screamed in Terror as flaming black wings erupted from my back and blades formed on my arm and just to fuel his nightmare more I grew a flaming tail with barbs attached to it I didn't know what was happening all I knew was he was running away screaming. When the police arrived I had a total breakdown, they never did catch him and I could never be normal again .
And now here he was standing in front of with the biggest smile on face
" hey kid it’s been awhile hasn't it" he chuckled "you know I think we should play a game how many people will I have to kill till the blue flame lights, huh does that sound like fun" he practically laughed that last part he then left the room.
When he came back he had five chairs with other people tied to them, I recognised all but one of them a little girl with blue hair. Three of them I knew by face but not name I definitely recognised the fourth one Chris, he then pulled a table out with assorted blades.
“Number one”
come on light, please
“Number two”
do something come on
“Number three”
PLEASE, COME ON, FLAME, LIGHT, SPARK JUST DO SOMETHING
"So contestant number 4 is up next"
three hours, three hours of Watching him torturing three people while trying to get the flames to work with nothing to show for it I need to think of something
"So no flame yet that's ok two more to go"
oh shit Chris was next I have to do something . But I could was watch as my only friend in the world was dying right in front of me and I couldn't do anything as the life slowly drifted from his eyes.
THAT.
WAS.
IT.
I could feel my body heat up but I didn't burn he did the blades that stuck out my arms sliced his arms as he screamed then his face started to burn away with his screams this continued for a while till used all my force for a finishing strike with the tail impaling him, I let his body drop to the ground as my blades and tail retracted leaving only my wings
I turned to see the little girl in front of me with a note that said
thank you
on one side and
would you like a second chance
on the other.
"I sure would kid but the world isn't that easy"
She handed me another not as if she knew that I was going to say that it read
what about a different one
wait what?
next thing I knew hundreds of feet in the air falling... no I was just gliding at very high speeds with my wings outstretched... wait... my wings they were still there last time they only lasted for five minutes but now I felt like I was in complete control the only problem don't know how to use them... shit
As I fell through the air I realised I was heading straight towards a town and I was falling pretty fast.
I tried to move my wings but I couldn't due to the speed it then I realised if my wings were working than my flames should Be as well so I focused all my mental and physical strength into my hands to make makeshift thrusters
As I came closer I started to panic push more power through my hands when I heard a large boom and saw a shockwave of blue flames in a growing ring behind me,
did me just brake the sound barrier and what the hell is with all the blue I thought as I realised I was going over the town… and into the forest... F M L.
Sweetie bell P.O.V
Hi there I’m sweetie bell and I’m a member of THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS. We were about to go to zecora’s to try our luck at mask making cutie marks,
When we heard a massive boom at first we thought it was a sonic rainboom but the only colour was blue and it was made of fire,
Blue flames what could do that anyway after the boom there was a large crash in the Forrest so we went to investigate
We had been walking for a while when scootaloo heard something then we all heard it sounded like crying.

I awoke to find myself in quite a big crater
"Jesus" I groaned as I got up it came to my realisation that I was still alive "wow my body is sturdier than I thought that should have killed me" as I said that memories of what had happened earlier came flooding in "four people... four people died because I couldn't get these stupid powers working..." I broke down as I trailed off I was crying for what felt like hours when I heard voices
"Shh do hear that" one voice said
"It sounds like cryin y'all" the second voice said in a strong western accent
"it's coming from this way... what in the hay is that thing" the third voice said I was about to tell the owner of the voice not to be so rude but when I turned around to see three colourful fillies... and they could talk, ok I might be dead... wait WHAT.
The three fillies stared at me with the same confusion as did at them till I broke the Silence "I think I might want to wake up now" the three fillies jumped back in surprise but one by one they stepped forward
the first was an orange filly with a purple mane and tail with wings, the second was a pink tinted white filly with a pink and purple mane and tail with a horn and finally a yellow filly with a red mane and tail with a bow, they all stared at me with curious content till the unicorn filly broke the Silence
"Excuse me sir but what are you" a least didn't call me a thing this time
"I am human" I replied voice a little shaken but still understandable, the unicorn filly spoke again
"What are you crying for sir" wow this filly is a brave one to her I could look extremely dangerous I thought as she came closer
"it nothing don't worry about it" I said but before she could respond we all heard a large howl coming from behind me I spun round to see a pack of wooden wolfs which caused t blades in my arms to extend "get behind me" I said no longer with fear but strength, even if I don't know these fillies someone with something to protect is always the strongest one in the room
I stood my ground as the wicked beasts came closer and I was arguing with myself because I wasn’t running.
The first wolf struck but luckily I swung my blades just quick enough to stop it from causing any major damage to my already fragilbThehe I watched as my blades cut through the wolfs body like scissors and paper as my blades dripped with tree sap and the body burst into twigs, branches and bark,
these may brake easy but there are too many of them I thought as I cut through a fifth wolf, I looked back at the three fillies they were terrified then I look at my body cuts, scrapes, gashes and a few bite marks covered my body “I don’t know how much longer I can keep this up” I thought out loud, I turned around to look at the fillies “aw screw it”
Present
“Oh yeah that’s how ok girls how much further” I asked
“not much further I think, we just got to stay on track” the unicorn replied wow the other two are scared out of their wits where as she can still give me directions she is a brave one thought the something court my eye light that must be the tree line.
I raced to the edge of the forest I crashed straight through and landed on my back,
blood lots and lots blood now losing the amount of blood that I have most probably make you see skittles coloured talking pony’s but that wasn’t the case
The next hour or so were a blur of colours mostly red but I did learn the three filly’s names in that time. The orange one was scootaloo the white one was sweetie bell and the yellow one was applebloom but during my lack of vision there was a constant blur of yellow and pink that was saying things in a very motherly fashion which I felt disturbing yet comforting to hear.
I was drifting… no, it was more like sinking, I could see a light and dark all around me until my feet touched a solid surface. I looked around me the scene had changed it was this morning at collage except it was empty no staff no students nobody, I heard a door open I turned to see Chris “am I dead” I asked
“No this is just a dreamscape so you’ll be waking up pretty soon” he replied
“Why are you here then” I pondered
“Oh that when I was dying part of my soul latched on to the last thing I saw and that was you” he answered
“So you’re my spirit guide huh” I stated with a smile on my face “yeah I guess I am haha any way you should get going you have quite an adventure ahead of you my friend” the last thing I saw was a bright shining light.
I awoke for what I think was the fourth time today “wow I really need to stop passing out like that it can’t be good for my health” I said as I tried to get up but found that my arms, legs, chest and head was retained by belts and buckles to the hospital bed, well at least I was in some form of hospital.
I didn’t have to wait long for somebody or to be more specific somepony to come along as she nervously shuffled towards me even with the sun in my face I could see something was different about her and not just physically but like a sixth sense, like there was a third presence in the room.
As she stepped forward I could see it wings and horn “hello I am princess twilight sparkle what’s your name?”
