I was home and didn't think about doing anything for the day but the universe had different plans for me. The weekend had just started and it was late at night. I've noticed that the moon was missing from the sky for about 3 weeks now, but others keep telling me that the moon had changed trajectory due to the earth closing in on the summer solstice. So not to worry myself I started to believe that. That's when they came. I was playing Super Mario World on my SNES when a knock was at my door. I paused the game to listen for it again thinking it was the house settling but I heard it again.
I got up and went to answer the door.
"Who could it be at this hour it's...4:00 in the morning! I really need to keep better track of time." I said as I approached the door.
I opened the door and saw nothing but I thought to myself they were down toward the ground. So when I looked there my heart skipped a beat, six to be precise. They were none other then, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rarity, and Applejack. I stood in complete shock, the mane six were at my door. But something wrong. They were hurt badly and Rainbow Dash needed urgent medical attention. I tried not to faint and hold myself from freaking out but by the look on their faces told me Rainbow was running out of time.
"Quickly come inside." I uttered as they rushed by. "What happened to you guy's? How did you even come here? How did this happen? Why did you come to my house? Where-" I was interrupted by Twilight.
"Hurry please can you help us she could die without your help."
Then I felt as if someone put 3,000 tons of pressure was set on my shoulders, I and I alone was able to keep Rainbow Dash alive. Any slip up in the procedure and they would be short a friend and it would be all my fault.
"Do you know much about medicine?" asked Rarity.
"No but I play a doctor on tv." I stated.
There was an awkward moment before we continued.
"Ok I'm going to need the first aid kit from the bathroom and I'm also going to need to get some alcohol from the cabinet up there." I said in a frantic voice breaking my composure.
"Why do you need alcohol darling, you can't be drinking if you are working on our friend" said Rarity from the living room.
"Please just go and get the alcohol! It's the only way I'm able to try and save her!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. It did scare a few of them but finally I got the supplies I needed.
"Ok some pony speak to her make sure she stays conscious and give me that alcohol."
"Hey Dashie it's me Pinkie, how are you?"
"Hey Pinks hows it going?"
"You saved Fluttershy from that big mean meanie pants."
"Yeah I guess I did."
"Ok make sure she's secure I'm going to apply the alcohol. Ok Rainbow Dash this is going to sting worse than a spider bite in the middle of a desert storm" I warned as I got ready to apply the liquor.
"I thought I was the only one who made country isms" said Applejack.
"Ahhhhhhhh!" screamed Rainbow as I added the liquor.
"What's happening?! What are you doing to her?!" yelled Pinkie as I poured it on one of her best friends.
"Please keep calm, I'm almost done just have to stitch up the wound" I stated as I grabbed the thread and needle.
"Is it almost over?" Asked Fluttershy.
"Aaand done, just take it easy for awhile and you should be back to your old self in no-time."
It was done after all of that screaming, yelling and panicking she was saved by me, a person that has minimal surgeon skills. Afterwards I leaned back and and took in the accomplishment that I had just received. Then I was knocked unconscious, I had no idea why but everything went dark.

"Did you succeed in destroying the Elements of Harmony once and for all? Remember if any of them live they will defeat us and send us all to Tartarus." Said an evil deep voice.
"If Twilight and her friends live then she'll be able to make new friends and if she were to tell them what happened then we will never have this chance again." Said an evil female voice.
"And what of Discord, is that traitor taken care of?" Asked a tall cloaked figure.
"Of course I did it. Twilight and her friends destroyed my towns way of life and forced me out of my own town, anything to get back at her I'll gladly do it." Said Starlight Glimmer
"So where is the traitor?" The cloaked figure asked again.
"Why he's in this ultra protective super dense jar. It can never break tested it myself." She stated as she showed them the jar.
"Excellent, and you are sure that you've taken care of them right?"
"Like I said before I took care of them." Said Starlight Glimmer
"We understand that but did you kill them!!" Yelled all three of the hidden villains.
"Uh... Not really." She said in a nervous voice.
"What! We put our faith in you and you go and do this!" Said the evil deep voice.
"I even dispatched a swarm of my strongest Changelings!"
"I even gave you my strength and endurance while the king gave you some of his dark magic, what happened."
"Even thought I ambushed them and the elite changeling swarm had pinned them down and your dark magic took their ability to use magic..."explained Starlight Glimmer.
"Well?" Asked the villains.
"Apparently they also had backup. Twilight's assistant came in with the entire town and a pack of Diamond Dogs. I subdued them but your Changelings grew distracted and our common enemy escaped but since they were weakened by your dark magic they were easier to take down then I ordered the Changelings to attack them and together we hurt them up pretty badly and right before I was about to blast the one who revealed me in my town one of them jumps in the way and she's the one who was cut she started to bleed out and just as I stuck the blade through her Twilight opened a portal and they all went through it." Starlight Glimmer said to the villains.
"So you failed us?" Asked the tall cloaked one.
"Well yes and no."
"What do you mean?" Asked the evil female voice.
"Just before the portal closed I told the elite Changelings to follow them."
"Good, how many made it through?" Asked the dark magic user.
"All of them!" Said Starlight Glimmer.
*****
I started to see again and even though it was a bit blurry I could make out voices. They were confused and scared, worried and hurt. I think they knew I was waking up because I heard one of them tell the others something.
"Uh-oh, I think he's waking up." Said one of them.
"What should we do." Asked another voice.
"I don't know, we still need a plan!" Worried another.
"Hold on I got him." Said a voice that sounded southern.
Then I was hit again and this time I saw it coming. It was two orange hooves hitting my face.

Applejack just finished bucking the stranger's face when Twilight shouted at her.
"What was that for we could've asked about how he knew us?" Questioned Twilight.
"Well I wasn't sure if we were ready to ask him any questions at the moment." Applejack explained.
"I'm not sure about Applejack but I had many questions for this...thing." Said Rarity.
"Asking about fashion isn't the what we're going to ask about." Probed Applejack.
"I wasn't. That was for later."
"I was going to ask him if he likes cake or pie, apples or pears,-" Pinkie was interrupted by Applejack.
"That's not what we were going to ask him either."
"I was going to ask him if he likes animals." Said Fluttershy.
They all started to fight and argue that they didn't even notice that Rainbow Dash started limping into the room. She did look a lot better but she was still hurting from the night before.
"Really guys this is what Starlight Glimmer does to us and you guys fight over what to ask this thing? We need to stand tall not fall short of our goal. Now when he wakes up we'll ask who it knows about us then we'll ask about that other stuff, ok? After all it did save my life."
"Rainbow Dash is right we shouldn't be fighting over petty crap he did save a life and he also was very helpful." said Twilight.
"But what if he did it to gain access to our magic, like what just happened." yelled Rarity
"Well then we tie him up and wait and see what happens then but until now we can't do much in this storage world that we are in." said Applejack
The two that weren't badly injured by the full on attack by the changelings tie up the man and put him in the closet. They waited for hours for the man to wake until Fluttershy opened the door to check on him. That's when he grabbed her. He broke free of the ropes.

I stare in all of the ponies eyes and see the worry in all of their faces as I held Fluttershy by the neck. As the one they call Applejack approached I squeeze harder on the yellow Pegasus's neck. This made my point get across firmly. As the yellow Pegasus gasped for what little air that I gave her as she tried to yell for help. Then Rainbow Dash walked in the room and looked at me and with a simple saddened look, my grip released of the Pegasus's neck and I went back in the corner away from them all. All of the ponies were in complete shock.
"How did you do that Rainbow Dash. I mean tame it like that?" asked Twilight.
"Yeah you saved Fluttershy's life a second time." said Pinkie.
"He know why and I'm sure you all know why as well."
"Well if you are done with this fooling around business then we can start asking him some questions like why did he almost KILL Fluttershy!?" Yelled Applejack.
Then they all looked at me, the one named Twilight ran over to Fluttershy and made sure she was alright. Even though she was they were all very pissed at me. I stood there wondering why did I do it, what to hurt and innocent creature trying to figure out what happened to me. But they didn't attack me instead they walked away.
"I'm sorry for that, it's just that I was in a situation like that once where I was locked in a closet tied up I was afraid that you would have been the same way."
The looks on their faces was of pity and sorrow all but one bought the story. That pony was Applejack. I don't know why but I feel that whenever I try to do some good Applejack just doesn't like how I do it.
