Prologue: the accident

Edited by GravityFallsCrossovers

    A pair of small children were crossing the street, one was six, the other, five. The five year old was Jason Carloan. The six year old was his brother, Chris Carloan. They finished crossing the street with plenty of time left before the light changed. Jason realized that he dropped his favorite toy in the middle of the road.

    "My toy!" Jason exclaimed.

    "I'll get it." Chris said. A man was driving his car, and he got a text and answered it. While he wasn't paying attention, the little boy ran out into the road to grab his brother's toy. The man didn't look up from his phone. Instead he plowed through the intersection and hit the kid. The man didn't stop the car. He knew he hit someone, and didn't want to go to jail. He just kept driving. In the intersection, Chris was just laying there. He wasn't moving or breathing, just bleeding. A young Jason was left scared, alone, and crying. He heard sirens in the distance, but he didn't move.

    Jason, age eight.

    Mr. Carloan walked up to his son with a sad look on his face. "Hey sport, I know it's been hard since your brother died. From now on, you can have whatever you want. It can be anything." offered Mr. Carloan. Eight year old Jason was watching a YouTube video where people were make different gadgets. An idea popped into Jason's head.

"Can I have some power tools? And some safety gear?" He asked. Mr. Carloan thought for a second, and he cracked a smile.

    "Tell 'ya what, I'll get you anything you need create things like that." He said, pointing to the video.

   "Do you mean it dad?" Jason asked with a smile.

    Jason, age ten.

    "Jason, what are you doing with that screwdriver?" Jason's teacher asked.

    "I'm adjusting an arm I made for Jimmy." He replied, causing the class to laugh. "I'm serious, it works!" The teacher got an idea.

    "Well Jason, if it works then show us. Jimmy, can you come here please?" A child with a half missing arm stood up and walked to the back of the class.

    "Ok, I'm going to put this on, so hold still. It may feel a little tight." Jason said. Jimmy sat down and did as he was told. Jason put on the robotic arm and adjusted a few screws. "Alright, now try to wiggle your fingers." Jason instructed. The teacher stood there, not expecting it to work. Then Jimmy opened and closed his hand. The teacher went wide eyed, and the class gasped.

    "Now try and move each separate finger." Jason said. The boy touched his new index finger to his thumb, then his middle finger to his thumb. Jimmy touches the ring finger to his thumb, then his pinky. The kid then made his wrist rotate, in the same range of motion as a real hand.

     "Awesome!" An ten year old girl named Rainbow Dash yelled.

    "I can move it just like I could before!" Jimmy exclaimed happily. The teacher was still standing there in shock. She walked up to Jason and grabbed him by the shoulders.

    "How did you make that?!" She asked.

    "It was easy, Miss. I've been making these kinds of things since I was eight." The class let out a collective ''wow'' as Jimmy started using his new hand to write.

    ~Later that afternoon...~

    "Am I in trouble?" Jason asked.

    "No Jason, I just want to talk with your parents. Ah, Mr. and Mrs. Carloan." The teacher said as Jason's parents entered the room.

    "What's this about?" Mr. Carloan asked.

    "I would like to discuss something about your son. He's show an incredible intellegence." she answered.

    "How so?" Mrs. Carloan asked.

    "Well, just today he was adjusting a robotic arm he made for one of his classmates.  This particular student had lost more than half of his arm in a shark attack. Jason made a working elbow joint and fingers. My point is, Jason made him one that not only worked, but the student was able to control it very easily."

    "Son, is this true?" Mr. Carloan asked.

    "I was only trying to help." Jason explained sheepishly.

    "Son, you don't need to worry. This is a very good thing." Mr. Carloan said.

    "Really?"

    "Yes, it shows us that you are a very smart person. You should be happy about what you've done. But how did you learn to do all of this?" Mrs. Carloan asked.

    "I just taught myself, making things in my work room all the time." Jason said.

    "His work room?" The teacher asked curiously.

    "Yes, he has a room where he keeps a bunch of tools we bought him. He made a desk out of plywood and he loves being in there." Mrs. Carloan explained.

    "He was so depressed after his older brother died, so I told him he could have anything he wanted. He asked for a tool set, so I got it for him, along with safety gear and supplies whenever he needs them." Mr. Carloan added.

    "I see. Well, that explains why he's so good with technology. I've also been monitoring his grades and he's been getting 100's in every subject. I even did a test to see how much he knew. As it turns out, with how smart he currently is, you have two choices. One, you could put him into high school early or two, you could keep him out of school for five years and start school again when he's fifteen." Jason's teacher said.

    "Well son, it looks like you're going to have a lot more time in your work room." Mr. Carloan said with a smile.

    "I see you've already decided." The teacher said with a smile.

    "Yeah, we'll keep him home until he's fifteen. We just don't want the others to pick on him for being so young." Mrs. Carloan said.

    "It's completely understandable. High school kids can be a bit harsh. So Jason, it looks like you won't have to come to school for the next five years."

    Jason, age fifteen.

    Jason sat back in his seat on the school bus. He was staring out the window, watching everything go by. He slowly looked next to him when he felt someone sit down. Seated there was a rainbow-haired girl with cyan skin. She shifted her bags a bit to get comfortable. She looked over at Jason.

    "Mind if I sit here?" She asked. Jason shook his head and went back to staring out the window. "Name's Rainbow Dash." She introduced herself, with a hand extended.

    "Jason Carloan." He said, shaking her hand.

    "Hey, I know that name. You're that kid who made that robotic arm for Jimmy." Rainbow Dash said.

    "It's child's play compared to what I can make now, but yeah, that's me." Jason shrugged.

    "Where have you been for the past five years? One day you just stopped coming." Rainbow asked, confused.

    "I was allowed to stay out of school until I was fifteen because of how much I knew. They said I could either go to high school or stay out of school for five years."

    "So why didn't you go to high school?" Rainbow asked.

    "My parents thought that I might get picked on by the older kids."

    "Well, if you ever have any trouble with people messing around with you, just let me know, O.K.?" Rainbow said, and Jason nodded. The bus stopped in front of the school and doors swung open. "Well, I'll see ya later Jason." She said.

    "See ya later, Rainbow Dash."

    "Just call me Rainbow for short." Rainbow said. Jason nodded and stepped off the bus.

    "Ugh, first day of school. This is going to be tough." Jason mumbled to himself.

Self defense.

Jason was riding the bus home, it was a long first day at school. Jason got lost five times, and he took a long time figuring out how to open his locker. He saw rainbow dash get off the bus and start walking, Jason also saw a sketchy guy following her. Jason got up and got off at the last moment. Jason secretly followed them for a few blocks before the sketchy man pulled her into an ally. Jason ran to the ally to see the man choking Rainbow from behind. They were both facing away from him. Jason whistled to get his attention, the man quickly dropped Rainbow and looked at Jason. He laughed when he saw how honey looking Jason was. Little did he know the Jason had a medical condition that made him look that way. Jason was actually ten times stronger then the average human. Rainbow looked at Jason, she was still on her hands and knees and breathing heavily. She saw him standing there, he his back pack and his jacket off. She thought he didn't stand a chance against him.

"Jason, just go." She said between breaths.

"I'm afraid I can't do that." Jason said. The man laughed at Jason.

"You should've listened to your friend kid." The man lunged for Jason. With incredible reaction timing, jason leapt into the air and round house kicked the man across the face. As the man recovered, jason did a summersault.

"Crotch ahoy!" Jason shouted as he wrapped his legs around the mans neck. The man was starting to choke, the man threw Jason off. He ran at Jason again, but Jason did a back-hand-spring and kicked the guy right in the jaw. The man got close enough to Jason to punch him, so he took a swing. Jason ducked really low. This aligned Jasons next move, Jason sprung forward on his hands. His feet hit the man right in the stomach and knocked him onto his back. Jason rolled the man over and jabbed the man in the back of the neck. This knocked the man out. Rainbow was still on her hands and knees, looking on in shock at what she just saw. Jason walked over to her and extended his hand. He helped Rainbow to her feet.

"Are you ok?" Jason asked.

"Yeah, I'm just a little shaken." She said. Jason walked toward his jacket and back pack. He grabbed them and started putting them on as he walked away. Rainbow decided to follow him. Jason just kept walking. Jason stopped and sat down at a bus stop. He looked at Rainbow for a second.

"Is there any particular reason why you're following me?" Jason said with a smile, he brushed his shoulder length hair away from his face.

"You just saved my life. How did you do that?" Rainbow asked with a laugh.

"Well, I live in the city so I wanted to be able to defend myself. I took gymnastics, advanced karate and advanced Kung fu." Jason said.

"No offense, but you don't exactly look like you have enough muscle on your body to pull that stuff off." Rainbow said with a smile, she sat down next to Jason so she could hear him a bit better.

"I have a rare muscle disorder, it makes my muscles look tiny but they are actually ten times stronger then the average persons muscles." Jason said.

"No way! Arm wrestle me, right now." Rainbow said.

"Alright." Jason and Rainbow dash found a flat surface and positioned their arms. "I will be trying to stop your arm from moving rather than trying to win, I don't want to hurt you." Jason said.

"Alright, on go. One, two, three, go!" Rainbow said. Rainbow started pushing with all of her strength, but Jasons hand didn't move an inch. On top of that, Jason didn't appear to be struggling to stop her arm. Jason slowly pushed Rainbows arm back until it met the flat surface.

"Dude! You did that like it was nothing!" Rainbow said with a smile.

"Well I told you." Jason said with a laugh.

"So where are you headed?"

"My parents bought me a studio apartment on the top floor of a building in the city. In other words, I'm heading home." Jason said as he sat back down.

"Could I come?" Rainbow asked.

"Only if you don't mind taking the bus and walking up a lot of stairs." Jason said with a smile. Rainbow walked over and sat with Jason. Jason removed the hair from his face again and let out a sigh.

"how you saved me was pretty awesome." Rainbow said.

"Oh that's nothing, I was in a store that was being robbed. The guy pointed the gun at me so I round house kicked the gun from his hand. He tried to pull a knife in me, but I knocked him out with a spinning kick to the face." Jason said with a smile. "I knocked half his teeth out with that one kick, but it was still awesome."

"Gezz, remind me not to try and fight with you. I'll end up in the hospital." Rainbow said between fits laughter. The bus pulled up and Jason got up. He put the fair in for both of them and sat down in the first empty seat. Rainbow sat next to him.

"Why do you trust me enough, to follow me to my house? For all you know, I could be a rapist." Jason said with a serious tone.

"I trust you because all you ever did in elementary school was try to help people, then you come back to school and save my life. I think it's fair to say your not going to harm anyone unless they either swing at you, or they take a swing at a friend of yours." Rainbow said.

"I guess that's a fair judgement." Jason said.

Twenty minutes later....

"Man, you weren't kidding about the not minding stairs thing." Rainbow said when they reached his floor.

"You get used to it, but the first couple of times you want to die." Jason said, he was pulling his house key out of the door lock when a robotic voice spoke. It sounded like it was a British female.

"Welcome back Mr. Carloan." The voice said.

"Thank you Magna." Jason said. "Oh that's Magna, she's a program I made myself. She reads emails for me, reads texts for me and plays messages left on my phone. She can also play music. Magna, can you please read my latest email." Jason said.

"Yes Mr.Carloan, there has been one new upload on pornhub." Magna said, Jason almost spit his water out. He started blushing a bright red. Rainbow just snickered.

"Hey, what do you expect, I'm a hormonal fifteen year old." Jason said. "Don't pretend like I wouldn't find anything like that in your browser history." Jason said with a laugh.

"You wouldn't find anything. I'm very sneaky when it comes to what I masterbate to." Rainbow said.

"Ok, didn't need to know that." Jason said with a nervous laugh.

"What?" Rainbow asked.

"I no longer feel comfortable with this conversation, that's what. It's awkward enough that you caught my masterbating habits, then you make it more awkward by saying yours." Jason said. Rainbow thought for a second then she crossed her legs and put her hand over her crotch.

"I feel violated." Rainbow said with a blush. Jason just laughed uncontrollably.

"As do I madam, as do I." Jason said with a smile. "Want anything to eat? Luckily I know how to cook." Rainbow nodded.

"Yeah, I'm getting kind of hungry." She said. She was still standing in that awkward position.

"Tell you what, I'll make us some dinner, and you stop standing there like I just tried to involuntarily finger you, deal?" Jason said. Rainbows face turned bright red at the mention of fingering her.

"Deal." She said. She stopped standing in that awkward position and sat down at the island Jason had in his kitchen. As Jason got the materials out to make dinner, Rainbow looked around.

"Magna, put on some music please." Jason said.

"Which playlist do you wish to select?" Magna asked.

"Mah shiz please." Jason said. Immediately the first song started playing. The first song that came on was called Hail to the king by the band Avenged sevenfold.

"On my god! You listen to heavy metal too?!" Rainbow asked.

"Yep." Jason started playing the air guitar to the solo at the beginning of the song. He began to sing along while he was cooking. "Watch your tounge or have cut from yo head! badum bum. Save your life by keepin whispers unsaid!" Rainbow had to admit, he was a pretty good singer. She chuckled lightly when she saw him having a ball. he was dancing, singing and cooking. She also had to admit that Jason was really good at multitasking. Not many people can sing, dance and make food at the same time. Jason popped the food into the oven and set the built in timer. When the first song finished Rainbow gave Jason a small round of applause. Jason took a bow and and sat down across from Rainbow.

"Dinner should be ready in twenty minutes." Jason said.

"Great! What are we having?" Rainbow asked.

"Pork loin with a bit of fried chicken and mashed potatoes." Jason said. Rainbow looked behind Jason to see a big pot sitting there, the burner was turned off and it had a lid on.

"Awesome." Rainbow said.

"So, you know a little bit about me. But I don't know anything about you." Jason said.

"Well, I'm the captain of every sports team at Canterlot high. I own a porsh. I love rock and heavy metal music. And-" Jason cut her off mid sentence, he had a big grin.

"Which do you prefer to masterbate with, big dildos or small dildos?" Jason started laughing after that. Rainbow decided to make him feel uncomfortable by telling the truth.

"Big ones." She said with a smug grin. Jason started laughing harder.

"It was already awkward when I asked the question, then you put the icing on the cake with the response!" He said while laughing.

"Oh I was serious." She said with a smile. Jason slowly stopped laughing and a big red blush came across his face.

"Well I'm uncomfortable now." Jason said.

"The only way I could top the uncomfortableness of that question was by telling the truth." She said with a smug grin.

"Yeah, you won with that one." Jason said, his face was still bright red. He crossed his legs and shifted uncomfortably.

"Holly shit did I turn you on with that response?!" Rainbow said while laughing.

"Which do you want, the truth or the whole 'I'm just uncomfortable' shtick." Jason said with a serious face and a bright red blush on his cheeks.

"Sorry about that." Rainbow said with a smile. "I guess I took it a little to far with that one."

"No shit, what was your first clue, The fact that I crossed my legs or the fact that I feel like a humpback whale is trying to break out of my jeans?" At this rainbow started laughing even harder. "Oh two can play at that game. Magna, read back my porn history."

Five minutes later....

Rainbow was now sitting with her legs crossed and a red blush on her face.

"Ha, no we're both horny." Jason said with a mischievous smile. Just then the timer on the oven went off. Jason looked at it and his face went pale. "Oh shit." Jason said slowly. Jason cupped his hands over his crotch and tip toed over to the oven to turn it off. He quickly sat back down with his hands still cupped over his crotch.

"You gonna take it out?" Rainbow asked with a blush still plastered on her face. Jason quickly shook his head. "well shit."

Chapter 3

Jason and Rainbow dash were walking around the city, the sun was starting to set so the temperature was becoming very nice. It was not too cool, it wasn't to warm either, It was perfect.

"So how did you find out about your muscle condition?" Rainbow asked.

"Well, I was seven when my dad owned a Harley. One day he was working on it and the kickstand slipped, the bike had him pinned and my mother couldn't get it off. My mom ran into the living room to call an ambulance. While she was gone I put my arms under the bike and lifted it, it only came up as far as my chest but it was still incredible. My mom actually walked in to see me holding this big bike. I found out when the ambulance got there, I had lifted seven hundred pounds of bike." Jason said with a smile.

"Well how much can you lift now?"

"Roughly one thousand pounds."

"Wow! Really!"

"Yep, I can lift a car engine." Two sketchy looking guys walked out of an ally twenty feet away. "Rainbow, don't panic, but take my hand and keep very quiet. Don't answer anything they ask." Jason said in a whisper. Rainbow nodded and took Jason's hand.

"Hey there sweat cheeks, how's it goin?" One of the men said. The man became angry when they didn't respond. "Hello! I'm talkin to you! You deaf or something!?" They didn't respond, they just ignored them. "Oh well, I guess you'll get to meet my friends. Oh boys!" Six other men showed themselves. they came in groups of two from every side.

"Shit." Jason said quietly. "Rainbow it looks like we're fighting to get out of here, and I mean we not me. We need to work together on this. when I say go, we stand back to back alright?" Jason whispered.

"Alright." Rainbow said.

"Ready? Go!" Jason and Rainbow dash stood back to back. The first man took a swing on Jason's side. He was an easy take down, Jason grabbed his fist and high kicked him in the jaw. He fell onto his back and crawled away from Jason. The second person to swing came from Rainbows side. He threw a punch and Rainbow caught it, before the man could throw another punch Rainbow dash kicked him in the stomach. The man stumbled away half knelt over and holding his gut. The next guy threw multiple punches at Jason, jason blocked each one. Before long Jason had gotten sick of blocking and decided to catch his fist. Jason squeezed harder and harder, jason felt the mans hand pop and crack as he applied more pressure. The man fell to his knees, screaming in pain. Jason let go and decked him, a tooth came flying out of the mans mouth and he fell onto his side. The man got up and ran, stumbling occasionally as he went.

Number four tried to kick Jason. It didn't work, jason caught his foot. Jason made the man do a front flip, in the middle of the second flip the mans face was met by Jason's right foot. The man fell to the ground and slowly crawled away. Another man took a swing at Rainbow dash. She deflected the punch upward and gave the man an uppercut. He stumbled back and started running. Two men decided to flank them. The rushed at Rainbow and Jason from their left and right sides. Jason did a split in mid air and kicked the two men square in the chest. That's six and seven down, but number eight had a knife and stabbed Rainbow dash in the stomach. Jason turned around to see the man pull the knife from her stomach. Rainbow fell to the ground and the man stood back and laughed.

"Whoops." He said with a laugh. Jason starred at Rainbow, he could feel something boiling inside of him. The man went to stab Jason but Jason grabbed him by the wrist and twisted the knife from his hand, all while he was still looking at Rainbow dash. He slowly turned to look the man in the eyes, Jason looked extremely piss.

"You son of a bitch!" Jason screamed as he hit the man in the gut with his knee. Jason didn't stop, he proceeded to punch the man in the face twice before delivering a spinning kick to his face. The man started frantically crawling away on his back. "If I ever see you again! i will slowly push that knife into your forehead! Got it!" Jason said while pointing to the mans knife on the ground. The man quickly nodded, got up and ran.

Jason knelt down by Rainbow, she was loosing consciousness. "Rainbow? Rainbow stay with me, shit, I need to get you to the hospital." Jason scooped Rainbow dash up into his arms. "I guess this is where going for a run everyday pays off." Jason said. He began sprinting towards the hospital which was five city blocks away. When he got to block number four he looked at rainbow for a second, her eyes were barely open and the front of her shirt was soaked with blood. "Stay with me Rainbow! We're almost there!" Jason said. Three blocks to go, Jason was running faster and longer then he ever had before. He didn't even stop running for traffic, he just dodged the cars. One block to go, Rainbow had just lost consciousness. "Shit! Rainbow! Hold a bit longer!" Jason shouted. He spotted the sign out front of the hospital, it says emergency on it. Jason full on sprinted into the building and only slowed to a stop when he saw a doctor. "Help! She's been stabbed!" Jason yelled.

The doctor looked at Jason, he noticed both her shirt and his were covered in blood. The doctor got a gurney and quickly wheeled it over, Jason quickly put her down on the cart.

"Wait here, I'll come get you and tell you how she's doing." The doctor said. Jason nodded and sat down in a chair in the waiting area. Jason began nervously tapping his feet. Jason remembered he had a back pack on, it had a change of clothes in it. Jason pulled a fresh shirt and removed his blood stained one. As Jason stuffed the shirt into his bag he heard clanking coming from one of the pockets. He unzipped the pocket and found some tools, two circuit boards, two watches, some scrap metal, some springs, some screws, two small pulleys and some steel cable. He pulled an empty table up and dumped the material out.

Within minutes Jason had gutted the watches and placed the circuits inside them, he was tightening some screws when five girls walked through the front door.

"Where's Rainbow dash?!" The flaming haired girl asked the front desk.

"She's currently in the ER, she was stabbed." Jason said from his seat.

"By who? And who are you?" The flaming haired girl asked.

"I'm Jason Carloan, I'm her friend. We were walking around down town when we were jumped by eight guys, we took the seven down but the last guy had a knife and stabbed her."

"And how do we know you didn't just stab her yourself, huh?" Said the flaming haired girl. Jason stood up.

"BECAUSE I RAN FIVE CITY BLOCKS WITH HER BLEEDING IN MY RMS TO SAVE HER! SO DONT YOU DARE TRY TO PUT HIS ON ME!" Jason yelled. It went silent for a few moments, Jason sat back down.

"How long have you and Rainbow been friends?" The girl asked.

"About a month, and I saved her from someone a month ago too. A guy tried to choke her out and I stopped him." Jason said, his gaze never left the floor.

"Alright. I trust you." The flaming haired girl said.

"What, why do you trust him?" A girl with a Stetson asked.

"Because I don't think anyone would yell that loud and make a fool of themself just to get out of being arrested." The flaming haired girl said. "I'm sorry for accusing you, my name is Sunset Shimmer." She said.

"I said mine already but I'll say it again I case you don't remember, I'm Jason Carloan."

"Nice to meet you mister Carloan." Sunset said.

"Please, mister Carloan is my Father, just call me Jason." He said as he went back to working on his devices.

"What are you making?" She asked as she sat down next to him.

"You'll see." Jason said. Jason used the gears and motors from the watches to drive the pullies. He wrapped the steel cable around the individual pullies on each device. Once he tightened down the final piece of metal he was done. "Perfect, their done." Jason said aloud.

"What are they?" Sunset asked.

"We'll let me show you." Jason said. He pointed his arm in the direction of a clay flower pot across the room. A pop was hear and the flower pot shattered. Coming from the decide was a cable that led to the flower pot, Jason pulled the cable back to him and held the protective on the end. It was a narrow rod with four barbs that popped in and out. "It's a grappling hook, the device sucks in air through these tiny vents, It pressurizes the air and uses the air to shoot the projectile. The projectile is a thin rod so it will easily cut through rock or metal. then these barbs push out so they grip either the tunnel they've made if it's something thick it enters, or they grip around the hole on the other side of the wall." Jason said.

"How strong are the pulleys?" Sunset asked.

"They should be strong enough to pull a car." Jason said.

"Well how do they fire? Is there a button you push or something?"

"Nope, they have receivers in them. I had a chip implanted in my spinal cord when I was twelve, I figured I would be able to make something that could use the signals it puts out. But I was saving it for something really creative."

"Man, are you like a genius or something?" Sunset asked.

"No, I'm not like a genius, I am a genius." Jason said with a sarcastic smirk.

"Oh ha ha mister brainiac." Sunset said.

"But in all seriousness I will be taking a test in the middle of the school year that will determine whether or not I will graduate early. If I pass it I will be graduating high school at the end of this school year."

"What grade are you in?"

"I'm a freshmen."

"Really, your kinda tall for a freshmen aren't you?"

"I get my height from my father." Jason said. The doctor walked out and stood in front of Jason.

"Rainbow dash is going to be fine, she's awake right now and she was asking for you Mr. Carloan. If you'll follow me I'll take you to her." Jason nodded and stood up from his chair, the five girls did the same. "I'm sorry, only one miss Dash requested to see is him, if she asks for you I'll come and get you." The doctor said. The girls nodded and sat down. Jason followed the doctor through the double doors and down the hallway. They made a left turn and then a right turn and the doctor stopped in front of a door. "She's right in there." He said.

"Thank you." Jason said. Jason opened the door and walked in.

"Hey Jason." Rainbow said quietly, she had a small smile on her face. Jason pulled up a chair and sat on it backwards.

"Hey Rainbow, the others are here as well. Listen, I'm so sorry this happened to you." Jason said.

"It's not your fault Jason. Hey doc! Can you get my other friends and bring them here, they were sitting with him." Rainbow said.

"Absolutely." The doctor said.

"Yes it is my fault Rainbow, I was the one who decided we should walk around the city when it starts getting dark, and it's my fa-" Jason was cut of by Rainbows lips connecting with his own. Jason was taken off guard by this, his eyes shot wide open. She stopped kissing him.

"It wasn't your fault, it was those guys that jumped us. Now stop blaming yourself." She said, she kissed him again. Jason's eyes were still wide from the first one.

"Well I'll be, Rainbow found herself somebody that's not a total jerk." Said the girl wearing the Stetson.

"Applejack! How long have you all been standing there!?" Rainbow said nervously.

"We've been here since he was blaming himself." Sunset said. They all noticed that Jason hadn't moved or blinked since she stopped kissing him. "I think you broke your boy friend there."

"He's not my! Well... I guess you could call him that as of two minutes ago." Rainbow said, Jason fell backwards out of his seat.

"Oh great, I think you made him faint. Clean up on aisle 2, someone has broken Rainbow dashes boy friend." She said.

"Hey, leave him alone Sunset." Rainbow said.

"It's not like he can hear me." Sunset said, Jason suddenly shot upright on the floor.

"Wait I'm your what now? And clean up on aisle 2 someone has broken Rainbow dashes what now?" Jason said.

"I stand corrected." Sunset said.

"Yes Jason, I called you my boyfriend. What? Haven't you had a girlfriend before?" Rainbow asked.

"No I have never had a Girlfriend, and won't you risk going to prison for dating a minor? You are turning eighteen in two weeks." Jason said.

"No, there are Romeo and Juliet laws. So long as we were dating as minors I can't be charged." Rainbow said.

"Why do you know that?" Sunset asked.

"I was planning on asking him out for a couple of days now, so I looked up the laws for this kind of thing." Rainbow said. "So what do you say Jason, Will you be my boyfriend?" Jason got up off the floor, sat back down in the chair, and cleared his throat.

"Yes." He said. Rainbow hugged him and Jason hugged her back.

"Thank you Jason." Rainbow said.

"Your Welcome." Jason said.

The idea

Jason stared at the designs for the finished grappling hooks. He couldn't stop thinking about what Rainbow said to him, and what happened yesterday day. It was his sixteenth birthday and she wanted to give Jason some advice. She said 'what ever you do, make sure you enjoy it. I can't stand seeing you unhappy, I love you.' Those were the words that rang in Jason's head, the images of what happened were ingrained into his mind.

~ 3/13/15 9:00 pm - yesterday ~

Pinkie was poking Applejack in the back, Applejack stepped forward to give Pinkie some room. She tripped over Fluttershy's foot and knocked Jason out of the eighth story window. Jason shot his grappling hook at the building across the street, the projectile drove itself into the stone wall and held itself in. Jason swung down to the ground and stopped on the sidewalk across the street. He retracted the grappling hook and turned around to see the reactions of the five girls.

~ 3/14/15 3:00 pm - present ~

Jason got to thinking, if he could swing around using these things. Maybe he could use them for other purposes, first he would make a set of claws for his hands. The last thing he wants is to try to grip onto a building and slip, Jason decided the claws will sink into the wall of the building. This will allow him to climb, it will also help him with free running. Next he will make suit, probably spandex. He wants something skin tight so he can't get caught on things while climbing. What should be his name? 'The flying penis? No, not that.' He thought. He can't just swing around stopping crime and give his real name. 'Hi, I'm here to kick your ass because your committing a crime, oh by the way my name is Jason Carloan! Just thought you would want to know so you can plot some revenge on me.' He thought to himself as a joke. He decided the name could wait, he has more important things to worry about. first things first, He needs claws.

Jason pulled out a big piece of steel sheet metal and his cutting torch. He cut ten acute triangles out of the metal, he took them to his grinder where he can start sharpening them. He slowly slid the edges across the spinning wheel, he stopped to gaze at the sharpened claw he just worked on. The blade gleamed in the light from his desk lamp.

After an hour, Jason not only had the claws, he had an apparatus to retract them. The claws are connected to the grappling hooks so they have a secure point to attach to the body. Jason got to sewing and made a spandex suit, it was black and it had pissed looking, red eyes. It also had a big sharp toothed grin.

"Hell yeah! Let's go kick some ass." Unfortunately, the only ass that got kicked was Jason's. Jason was good at one on one combat, he wasn't good at fending off multiple people swinging at the same time. The only thing he knew how to do was to do a split in mid air and knock two people out. As Jason lay there on the concrete in the ally, his attackers were slowly getting closer. They all pulled knives from their pockets.

"Any last words kid?"

"Yeah, I should have trained a bit more." Jason said. A figure with a hood on and a black trench coat landed in front of Jason, he was facing jasons attackers.

"Who is this faggot?" One of the thugs said. The man pulled up a rusty, metal fold up chair and sat on it backwards. One of the men lunged at the hooded figure, the figure quickly yanked the chair out from under himself. He smashed the metal chair against the thugs head. He tilted his hand backward and a hidden blade revealed itself. He stabbed the thug in the throat and stood back. Another two lunged at him, he picked up a metal pipe and took the two men out with on swing. The figure looked right at the last two thugs, they dropped their knives and ran.

The hooded man started climbing up the building next to him, Jason got up and followed. The hooded figure perched himself on the corner of a building.

"Hey, thanks man. You saved my skin." Jason said.

"Why are you following me kid?" Jason stopped in his tracks.

"Well, because you seem to be good at this."

"So you mean your going to shadow me?"

"No, I was actually wondering if you would train me. I'm good at 1v1 fights, not so much 1v10." The figure turned around and removed his hood.

"And why should I train you?"

"Because we do the same thing, we fight for what's right, and I'm new to this." Jason said, he removed his mask.

"Jesus, your only fifteen! Why would I train a fifteen year old to risk his life?"

"Hey, your only seventeen and your doing it!"

"I'm eighteen dumb ass." The figure walked right passed Jason. Jason got an idea.

"Alright, I'll just continue to do what I'm doing and get myself killed because I don't have the proper training." Jason said, he turned to walk off.

"Wait a minute kid. I'll train you on one condition, we don't tell anyone about what the other looks like. And once I've taught you everything, we go our separate ways, ok?" Jason smiled and turned around.

"You've got a deal." Jason shook the mans hand. "So what will be my first lesson?"

"The best way I've found to train a person Is to start with a hand to hand fight. This will allow me to see what you know and adjust your training regiment. I'm going to stand here and block, you have to try to hit me."

"Easy enough." Jason threw a punch and the man stepped to the side, tripping Jason win his foot.

"Lesson one, never assume something will be easy. Always give it all you've got. Continue." Jason did two back hand springs and tried to round house kick the hooded figure. The figure grabbed his leg, stopping his kick.

"Hey, I never got your name." Jason said. The figure released jasons leg.

"Garret, the names Garret." Jason maneuvered around a lot and suddenly tried to sweep Garret's feet out from under him, Garret did a simple jump over jasons leg.

"Well, my name is Jason." Jason started swinging and kicking at his fastest pace, Garret had no problems dodging or blocking jasons attacks.

"I know who you are, your father owns a billion dollar company." Jason stopped attacking for a second.

"Hey, Why do you look like your wearing an assassins creed costume?" Jason asked.

"Not everyone can afford to make original costumes. besides, I like to think of myself as an assassin. Well, I've concluded that you have about as much experience as someone who took karate, gymnastics and Kung fu."

"Is that bad?" Jason asked.

"No, but that stuff is very basic. You can learn a lot more. Also I noticed when you tried to kick me in the face, you had trouble balancing on one leg."

"Well no duh, you had my other one in your hands."

"That's no excuse, that's why the first thing I'm going to teach you is balance. When your done, you will be able to balance on a thin metal pole using your index finger."

"Holy shit, people can actually do that?" Garret walked over to the fire escape and did a hand stand on one index finger. Jason was surprised that he didn't fall off the narrow pipe.

"That answer your question?"

"Hell yeah it does." Jason said.

"Great, let's begin."

Final chapter: the death of Jason

It has been a year since Jason last trained with the assassin. Before the two of them could meet up for Jason's final lesson, the assassin was shot and killed. The man who killed him used a sniper, the assassin never saw the attack coming. That didn't stop Jason from fighting his hardest, and saving lives. He had gotten word that there was a car crash on the bridge that led out of the city. When Jason got there, he saw a car that was teetering on the edge of the bridge. Jason shot his grappling hook into the car and started pulling, he was succeeding at get the vehicle up. But a metal support gave way and the car fell over the edge, luckily Jason still had the car. He was pulling with all of his strength. There was a sharp piece of metal sticking up from the bridge, the ground was wet and slippery. Jason slid for a foot and stopped, the sudden stop caused him to fall forward. Jason had been impaled onto the sharp piece of metal. Jason screamed in pain, he wrenched himself off of the metal and continued pulling. He was in a lot of pain, but that didn't stop him. He pulled the car up onto the bridge and ripped the car doors off, inside was a man, a women and three children. Jason pulled his mask off.

"Are you... Ok?" He said between gasps.

"Yeah, we're fine." The man said. Jason nodded his head and stumbled off, he leaned against wrecked cars and other things to help him walk. Eventually he collapsed and lost consciousness. People were being held back by police officers as the emergency crew were checking everyone. Rainbow was in front of the crowd.

"Hey, did anyone see who The Predator is?" One man said.

"Yeah, he's some kid." Another said.

"Oh my god, is he gonna be alright?!" A women said.

"We don't know, I think he might be hurt really bad." Said the first man. Rainbow dash got a clear look at The Predators face, it was Jason. Rainbow rushed forward, only to be stopped by some officers.

"Ma'am you can't come through here." An officer said.

"That's my boyfriend!" Rainbow shrieked. The officers let her pass and she ran up to Jason. "Jason! Jason look at me!" She shouted. Jason's eyes opened slightly, they looked right into Rainbows. He gave a small smile, he was tearing up.

"Rainbow, I'm sorry. I'm sorr-" Jason stopped mid sentence and closed his eyes, he gave one short breath and then nothing. Rainbow shook him, trying to wake him up.

"Jason. Jason! JASON! Why Jason! Why!" She cried. In the background she heard one of the people from before talking.

"Poor girl." It was the women.

"That kid gavehis life to save us. I don't care what you say, that's a true hero. What did she say his name was again?" The man said.

"His name was Jason." Rainbow said quietly.

"Huh? I think she just said it, shhh, everyone quiet! What's his name?" The man asked.

"His name was Jason Carloan!" She said loud enough for everyone to hear. "He was a kind hearted person, a genius, and most of all.... My boyfriend. We had plans to get married once he turned eighteen. we were both minors when we started dating. I'm not a minor anymore but he still was." Rainbow started sobbing. "He only just recently turned seventeen and... For his birthday we went to a nice restaurant where he... Proposed to me." She said through her sobs. She looked over at the people, they all slowly took their hats off and held them to their chest. Even the officers took off their hats.

"Aw hell, we should do something to remember him. Maybe we should build a statue in town square. Anyone got any final words to say?" The first man asked.

"He was a great hero. He risked loosing his true love, his friends, and his family, all to protect us. And-" the man was stopped by an ambulance worker who handed him a piece of paper.

"We found this in his hand." The medic said. The man opened the paper.

"Here is his will and final statement. I will read the letter he wrote first." The man cleared his throat. "Rainbow dash, I've been a hero for a long time by now. I want you to know that I love you more then anything, even if I put myself in mortal danger everyday. It makes me appreciate everything I have, so much more. I became a hero because I had witnessed two crimes being committed, and both of the people envoy end got away with it. The first one was a hit and run, I used to have an older brother. He was my best friend for the longest time, but I dropped my toy in the street so he ran to get it. The light was still red so no one should have been going though the intersection. A guy was texting and driving so he ran the light. He hit my brother and stopped for a second, he looked out his window and saw what he had done. He put the pedal to the metal and sped off, leaving my brother to die. He died in my arms, I was sobbing the whole time. The second crime was an attempted murder. that guy stabbed you in the stomach and I got the same helpless feeling from my brothers death. I couldn't take that anymore, so I forged a plan to fight crime. I made the suit and the gear and just started fighting people. I wasn't very good so the assassin trained me, I became the hero everyone knows me to be. The rest is history.

I want you to have my apartment Rainbow. You deserved so much better than me and yet you stayed. The last thing I'll say is, I love the people of canterlot city. But I love you the most Rainbow dash, I always will.

Signed, Jason Carloan." The man hand Rainbow dash the paper. Everyone was tearing up. As Rainbow dash red the will, she noticed that a large portion of Jason's things were going to her. She began to cry. he really did love her, and he was going to spoil her even after he was dead.

Rainbow dash walked into her new apartment, she notice a picture of Jason on the table near the couch. She planted a kiss on her fingers and place them on Jason's image. At the bottom right hand corner of the image, there were four words written in cursive.

Love you always, Rainbow.
