Chapters this is my second attempt at story writing and i'm going to do my best!
He walked through the streets again, looking for something to do. He wasn't going to read the books because he doesn't know how to read. Watching television? Nah, like there's actually someone trying to broadcast something at all. Take a look in the local toyshop? Sure, why not. He started walking towards the toyshop. Someone was inside, and he wasn't infected. How did he know that? Well being used for cruel experiments has its plus points, you know. He has enhanced strength, speed, defence, sight and smell. He can smell if someone is infected or not.
He entered the shop by breaking the wall. Why? Because he is too tall, you silly. The survivor jumped at the sound an quickly turned around. What the survivor saw was worse than a Tank. It was The Crusher. A two and a half metre tall infected with armour-like skin on his arms with hands as big as a pony. It's arms were black and the rest of his skin a sickly blue. He had torn up cheeks because his teeth had grown three times their normal size, making it look like he was always grinning. The muscles in his torso weren't as big as those in his arms. He had bandages around his eyes but that didn’t hinder his sight. The survivor was getting ready to scream and run away.
"CRUSHEEERRR!!!"
With that the survivor started running as fast as he could, but before he was outside he was stopped in his tracks be a oversized hand.
" Shit! Leave me alone, you MONSTER!" To the survivor’s surprise, the monster moved out of the way and waited for the survivor to leave. "What the... Never mind, I’m outta here!"
Scar just watched the survivor run away until he couldn't see him anymore. He started looking through the stuff in the store, hoping to find something useful. Wanna know why the survivor called him The Crusher? It's because Scar literally crushes his enemy with his oversized hands.
"An empty health pack, nope. A bottle of whisky, well, I don’t drink. Nope. A big mail bag? That could be useful. And I can even open it. That's a keeper."
He put the bag around his neck and contiued searching. Anything of use was stored in his bag.
"A bottle of water, keeping that one. Some diapers, to hell with that. A pen, too small and I can't write. A picture book? I'm too old. Some chocolate...HELL YEAH! Definitly keeping that. Some fruit, might be useful later on and it looks ripe. Well, that's it I think. Wait is that a..."
What Scar saw was a teddy bear.
"Little Tim would like to have that. I’ll take it with me, too."
When he got outside he saw the survivor from before being eaten by a group of hunters.
"What an idiot, don't they know they shouldn't be yelling in an area filled with infected? Well, let's if he has something useful with him."
The hunters backed away as Scar walked towards the corpse. When he got there he saw that the lungs were already half eaten and that the brains were gone.
“Really, they ate the brains first? Guess the stories are partly true.”
He started looting the corpse for anything of value or use.
"A health pack, some pills, stuff to keep. A pipebomb... no, too dangerous and it attracts infected and not the survivors. An axe? Might be useful. A shotgun, way to small for my hands. That’s it, I suppose. Well, have a nice meal guys." He continued on and the hunters continued their meal.
Fifteen minutes after seeing the survivor at the store, Scar had returned to a specific area. “I’m back, guys.
After he spoke some strange looking infected came out of the buildings. One of them was a little girl stitched up out of the body parts of other little girls, hence the name, Stitch. She wore a white shirt and some short, white pants. One of the other ones looked like a perfectly normal human. He had short, white hair, blue eyes, stood a little under two metres tall, had a brown jacket with sleeves that looked like they were oversized, but with fingers like a witch that were sharp enough to cut through bone like a warm knife through butter, they were necessary. He also wore green pants and brown shoes and was a bit skinny. Named Fright for his tendency to get scared, his honorific is The Slicer. The third one was Little Tim, or The Slender One. He was a kid at the age of eight but thanks to the infection his limbs grew insanely fast tearing his skin at the joints. He is three meters tall and wears long clothes stitched together by Mena - a witch that looked after Little Tim before meeting Scar and the others.
Stitch seemed joyous at Scar’s return. "You're back!"
"How did it go?" Slicer inquired.
"It went fine and yes, I'm back. And Tim, I got something for you." Scar stuck his hand inside the old mail bag and pulled out the teddy bear.
"A teddy bear? Thanks!" Tim hugged the bear tight with his extensive arms.
"No problem." Scar’s grin seemed to get a little bit bigger.
"How nice, a big guy gives a teddy bear to an oversized kid." The voice came from the shadows in the behind Scar.
Scar looked around, searching for the source. "Who are you? Show yourself."
"Don't be so boring.” The voice sighed when it realized nothing would happen. “Fine, I’ll show myself.” A infected walked out of the shadows and he looked very... chaotic, to say the least. His arms were two meters long and his lower jaw was too big. Plus, his eyes were mismatched.
"I think you want to go somewhere else. Someplace more peaceful and more accepting. Someplace where you don't need to kill for your food. What do you say, if I help you to somewhere more peaceful with plants filled with proteins so you don't need to eat meat anymore will you do what I say? Heck, I’ll even give you a cooking book so you know how to cook the plants!" The odd-looking infected grinned mischieviously.
Scar was confused and accidentally said okay.
"Well then, arrivederci!"
And with a snap of his fingers and a bright flash the five infected were gone.
When Scar opened his eyes after who knows how long passed out, he saw that he wasn't in the city anymore. He was in a forest.
i thank Limeattack for editing this chapter!
Chapter 1: Ponies? That can talk?
Scar sat up, glancing around the forest he had appeared in. "A forest? Wonder if there's any forms of intelligent life around."
After wandering about for a while Scar reached a cliff, with a manticore not far off. "Really,” he groaned, “a manticore? Well that's just great. Where to go now..."
Sadly enough for Scar, the manticore noticed him and attacked.
"Shit. I could really use the help of the others now." Weak points, where are it's weak points?! The manticore's tail barely missed Scar’s head. "This just isn't my day, isn’t it!?" He smashed his hand into the manticore's side but got a stinger in his shoulder in return."AARRG! You stupid overgrown cat!" He crushed the manticore's head into the ground with his hand.
"Perfect. Just, perfect. I've been transported to a unknown place by some clown and now my left arm is paralyzed. Best day ever."
After some time shuffling along he reached the edge of the forest and saw a wooden cottage just past the forest’s edge.
"Interesting... but I really... need some... medical help..."
As he neared the cottage he felt the last of his energy drain away and he collapsed. He slipped out of consciousness. If he had been awake while laying there he would be amazed by the crimson light that surrounded his body, turning it into a big stallion with a blue coat, a black tail and a long, black mane with a shattered music note as his cutie mark. He still had his oversized teeth and his front legs were black, but the legs now fit his form more readily.
As he opened his eyes the next morning he was greeted by a bright light. 'Probably still laying outside on the ground.' He tried to get up but was halted by a gentle but firm hoof. 'Wait, a hoof?' He looked up and saw a yellow pony with a long, pink mane. Apparently, she helped him recover, and he noticed he was inside of a cottage.
Scar didn’t expect the meek voice. "You should stay there and wait until you're fully recovered, if that’s fine with you, that is." Questions burned in his head. 'Why did she help me? And how am I actually fitting in this bed? And why can't I feel my fingers and toes anymore? And how can she talk?!'
The pony continued. "You were very sick when I found you. I'm kind of surprised that you can already move again. No offense..."
"None taken." Scar looked down at a white little bunny glaring at him like he's trying to say ‘get up and get out.’
"Excuse me, but why is that bunny looking at me like that? It's a bit unnerving."
Fluttershy poked her head around Scar to look at the feisty creature. "Oh, that's Angel. He seems a bit grumpy but he's actually very nice and helpful. But how can you see him? You're eyes are covered by your bandages and mane."
"I know. It's just that my sight’s a bit enhanced.” He also took note of the smell in the room, which was enough to turn his stomach but apparently didn’t affect the other pony. “And my sense of smell... unfortunately. Anyway, my name is Scar. What's your name?"
"My name is, um, Fluttershy,” the mare breathed, almost under the range of hearing.
"Could you repeat that?"
"My name is Fluttershy."
"That's a nice name. Could you, uh, tell me where I am and how much I’ve recovered from the poison?"
"Well, you're in my house, close to Ponyville. You've healed very fast so you should probably be able to walk in two days."
'Ponyville, huh? I think I had better play along with this. Note to self: I'm a blue pony... Pretty weird.'
"Twilight is coming over to see if there's anything else that I couldn't find."
"Who?" Scar shifted a bit.
"Twilight, she's one of my friends and she knows a lot. I noticed that your bone structure is a bit different from the average earth pony, so I figured she might be able to find out more..."
'Twilight... Maybe she could help me find the others... Hopefully she doesn't find out that I’m not really a pony originally.'
"Are you okay? You seem to be quiet a lot. Not that there's anything wrong with that..."
"No, I'm fine. No need to worry." 'Great job Scar, you're scaring her.'
"Oh, okay. Would you like something to eat? You've been out for a whole day, so you must be hungry."
'I wonder if I still eat meat... Judging by the teeth, I could do either that or plants.' "Yes, I would like some food."
"Okay, I’ll be right back..."
While Fluttershy was in the kitchen, the bunny kept glaring, much to Scar's annoyance. "Would you please stop looking at me like that?" Angel simply continued glaring. “Please, stop.” No change. “I said stop.” The bunny hardened his gaze. “Stop it. Don’t make me angry!” Despite it all, Angel didn’t let up. “I said STOP!” Scar practically roared the last part at the bunny, who flew towards the wall. A few windows shattered to hundreds of tiny pieces. "Oops..."
Fluttershy came running back into the room. "Oh my, what happened? Why are the windows broken? Why is Angel knocked out?"
"I roared at the bunny because he kept glaring at me. I didn't know it would break the windows. Sorry."
"It's okay. I should be able to clean this up before Twilight gets here."
"Here, let me help." Scar got up with absolutely no trouble and walked over to the broken windows.
Fluttershy nearly fell over from surprise. "Y-you shouldn't be able to walk at all! A-and you don't need to help, really."
"Why not? I did break the windows."
Almost half an hour later, the two ponies had finished cleaning the mess up and had eaten a small meal. 'I never knew hay could taste so good...'
Fluttershy piped up. "Excuse me, but I noticed that your cutie mark is a shattered music note. Is your special talent breaking things with your voice? I mean, no offense..."
"None taken. But, what is a cutie mark? And what do you mean by ‘my special talent?’" Scar furrowed his brow.
Fluttershy seemed confused about Scar’s lack of knowledge. "Well, your cutie mark appears when you discover your special talent. It's strange that you don't know about it."
Just then, a knock came at the door. "Oh, that must be Twilight. I'll get the door."
"Hi Fluttershy!” Twilight spoke a little too loudly, “Is he in the living room?"
"Um, yes. Are you okay Twilight? You look a bit overworked and - Eep!" Fluttershy squealed as Twilight rushed past her.
Suddenly, a violet unicorn with a frazzled mane and tail and a twitchy eye came storming into the room. "Aha! Maybe YOU’RE the disturbance I felt a while back!"
'Oh come on! The only one that knows what's going on has gone paranoid!? Only one thing left to do.' "Crap."

Running, chasing, falling, talking and a little dragon.
Chapter 3: Running, chasing, falling, talking, and a little dragon
The violet unicorn kept staring at him like he was a monster. "You are the disturbance, and you are not a pony!" She continued getting more crazy by the second.
"Twilight, what are you talking about?" Fluttershy had already recovered from Twilight's outburst and was trying to calm her down.
"He is the one that caused the disturbance! The Princess felt it too! This isn't what he normally looks like and I know just the spell to reverse this disguise!" Twilight's horn glowed with intense magic and the same light as the one her horn gave off started surrounding Scar.
Fluttershy cried out in protest. "Twilight, stop it! You’re hurting him!"
His body started to change back into his previous form, which is to big for Fluttershy's house. his body became invisible thanks to the light the spell gave off.
"Twilight, you're scaring me..."
The spell was completed and the light went away. The ceiling came crashing down thanks to Scar's size. In front of Twilight and Fluttershy now stood Scar in his original form.
"I KNEW IT! I TOLD YOU SO! HE IS THE DISTURBANCE! AND NOW... he's actually pretty big... not good..."
Fluttershy was clearly getting ready for a ear shattering scream: "MMMMMOOOOOOONNNNNNSSSSTEEEERRRR!" Everyone in Ponyville had heard her scream. Soon a huge crowd being led by a orange earth pony, a pink earth pony and a cian pegasus with a rainbow mane and tail.
"Woooooooowwwwww he's big! I wonder if he likes cupcakes and parties and muffins and ice cream and"-"PINKIE! THAT'S THE MONSTER!" the pegasus interupted.
"Well ahm sure as hay we can stop it."
"Oh for the love off..."
The whole crowd came charging at him and he had no intention on hurting or killing them.
"He's running into the forest! Don't let it get away!"
He looked back and saw the orange one, the pink one and the cian one getting closer at an alarming rate.
"Not good! Not good at all!"
Sadly for him he was running towards a cliff.
"We got you now! You can't escape us now!"
They were right. There was this very deep cliff in front of him.
"Do you like parties? Because here comes my party cannon!"
"What do you"-SMACK.
As he turned around he met face first with a confettiball. He als got bucked in the stomach by the orange one which brought him out off balance and was standing on the ledge.
"Take this you ugly monster!"
The cian one kicked him straight in the face which caused him to fall off the cliff into the dark pit below.
"Aaaaaaawwwww yeaaaah! I showed him who's boooaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!"
Scar grabbed at anything close enough, sadly enough that was Rainbow Dash so she fell down with him.
"RAINBOW! NOOOOOOOOO!"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!"
Rainbow and Scar both screamed in horror as they were falling.
Luckily Scar has experience with falling from great heights so he turned his face towards the ground and holded his hands in front of him so he would minimize the damage to a few broken ribs or a broken wing in Rainbow's case.
"YOU BETTER GET READY FOR IMPACT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO DIE!"
"WHY ARE YOU HELPING ME!"
"BECAUSE YOU DON'T NEED TO DIE!"
CRASH.
Meanwhile the ponies at the cliff where crying at their friends untimely demise.
After three hours.
When she woke up she was confused. That thing tryed to help her and she was still alive. That's not what monsters do, that's for sure. She opened her eyes and what she saw scared the living hell out of her. The monster was sitting right in front of her.
"AAAAH!"
She tryed to fly away but failed because her right wing was broken.
"Nonononononono. I need to get away. This is not happenening. I need to run. I"-SMACK.
"Calm down will you.Ffreaking out is not going to save you. I can get us both out of here but you need to calm down first."
He was trying to help her? She took a look at her wing and saw that it had bandages around it.
"Why should I trust you? And why are you trying to help me? Aren't you supposed to be eating me right now?!"
"I never said you need to trust me. And about the helping, maybe I'm not the monster you think I am. Sure, I look like one, but isn't the inside more important? And so you know i'm the only one that knows you are stil alive."
"What do you mean?"
"I'm saying that your friends think the fall killed us both. And if you want to see them again, you'd better do what I say."
"They think I'm, dead? And you are my only ticket back?"
"Yup."
"Fffffiiiinnneee."
"Good. Hold on."
He picked her up and placed her on his shoulder.
"Why don't you have any broken bones?"
"I do. Five broken ribs to be exact. I just heal very fast. In three days my bones will be healed completely."
"O."
She wondered how he was going to get out of this ravine.
"How are we going to get out of here?"
"With climbing and jumping."
He jumped towards the stone wall and dug his claws into the stone.
"What are your claws and your arms made of? They are a different color from the rest of your body."
"They are made of my skin. The black skin is just stronger than diamonds. And the blue skin is as hard as normal bones. And just to let you know, those are hands, not claws."
"Oh, okay."
"What's your name?"
"I'm Rainbow dash and I'm the fastest flyer of whole Equestria!"
"I'm Scar. What's Equestria?"
Rainbow Dash looked at him in disbelief.
"What? For your information, I've only arrived two days ago in this world thanks to some weird moron."
"World? You mean a different universe?"
Scar nodded.
"And what did that guy look like?"
"He had mismatching eyes and his limbs were also different from color. He also talked a bit weird. And he sent my friends with me."
"Sounds like Discord to me."
Scar raised his left eyebrow.
"Spirit of chaos and disharmony. he probably sent you and your friends here for his own fun."
"Well that explains it for a big part. Scar to Rainbow: We have arrived at a cave system."
"Why did you say that last part like that?"
Scar shrugged in response.
He climbed into the caves and what he saw made their lower jaws hit the floor.
"A dragon. A freaking dragon. Really? I'm not even surprised anymore."
"Scar?"
"Yes?"
"I think it's dead."
"It is?"
They came closer and discovered that it's neck was cut in half and the gold next to it was soaked with blood.
"Wonder what did that. Must have been a big guyuummph!?"
"Sssh."
"Why?"
"I think I heard something."
"Maaammmaaaaa... *sob* Maaammmaaa..."
"I think this is a mother."
"What makes you think that?"
"I heard the word mama and some crying."
"I don't hear anything."
"My hearing is twice as good as yours. I'm going to look for the little one."
They walked to the other side of the dragon and they saw a little dragon.
"You were right, there is a baby dragon here. What should we do?"
"I'm going to take her with me."
"Why? And how do you know it's a she?"
"We can'tleave her here. She'l die. And I can figure out what gender someone has just by hearing the voice."
"You know, you're pretty awesome for a monster."
"You're not to bad yourself."
They walked closer to the baby dragon and saw that she already had wings, her legs were clearly made for walking on all fours and her head was a bit shaped like a that of a horse only straighter. Her scales where a sapphire blue.
"Who are you?"
"I'm Scar and this is Rainbow Dash. I'm here to help you."
She had clearly not eaten in days, you could count her ribs.
"I don't want to leave my mommy."
"I'm sorry but your mommy isn't going to wake up.
"Why not?"
"I didn't want to say this, but your mommy is dead."
"Did you really need to say that? She clearly doesn't want to leave her mother."
"I would have to tell her eventually."
"Dead? S-s-she's D-d-dead?!"
"I'm sorry, but yes."
"Maaammmaaaaa. Maaaammmmaaaaa! Maaaaaaammmmmaaaaaa!! Maaammmaaaa..."
She was devastated by the news. Rainbow couldn't believe her ears. Scar just told a little kid that her mother is dead.
"What's your name kid?"
"I-I don't have o-one."
"Then I'll give you one. How about Seawing?"
"I-I like that n-name."
"Then it's settled. I'm going to be your dad for the time being. You should sleep."
After Scar finished talking Seawing fell asleep and Rainbow was amazed about how caring Scar actually is.
"I can't believe how I misjudged you, Scar."
Scar just shrugged.
Rainbow went to sleep too.
"Rainbow?"
"Yeah?"
"What do dragons eat?"

More talking, some angry ponies and a very pissed and angry princess.
chapter 4, more talking, some angry ponies and a very pissed princess.
Author notes: this is from Scar's POV.
After telling him everything she knew about dragons he went to sleep to get ready for what was coming. Right now they were getting ready to leave and they gave Seawing some gems.
"Hey Scar, do you have anything i can eat?"
"I think i packed some fruit in my bag, ah there it is. I'm surprised it's not completely crushed and only a bit dented."
"Thanks. Is this part of the climb mostly you carrying us or can i walk in this part?"
"I checked and found a hill that leads into the forest so you should be able to walk but i don't think Seawing should walk so i'l put her in my bag."
"Okay."
They started their hike and started talking to pass the time.
"Hey Scar, i've been thinking."
"A dangerous hobby."
"Haha very funny, but seriously, why did you take Seawing with you?"
"I know what's it like to lose your parents. It's very painfull and without help you'l become a big ball of bitternes."
"Oh."
"What about you? What are your parents like?"
"My parents are still alive but they thought i would never make it far so i haven't seen them for quite a while."
"Well that sucks."
"Yep."
"What are your friends like? I already met Fluttershy and she seems nice but a bit shy and easily scared."
"They are pretty awesome. Twilight is a bit of a bookworm and she can get paranoid about things she can't controll. Applejack is a hard worker and a good competitor. Pinkie is hyperactive, loves to prank, is really random and can defy physics. She also likes to party. Rarity is a bit of a snob but she's really nice and generous."
"Let me take a gues at what they look like. Twilight is the one who reversed my transformation spell. Applejack is that orange mare with the Stetson hat. I noticed she has a strong kick because she broke three of my ribs. Pinkie is that pink talkative one. And Rarity, i don't think i saw her. How was my gues?"
"Pretty good. And about Rarity, she's in Manehattan for a week."
At the mention of Manehattan he stiffled a laugh.
"What's so funny?"
"Oh nothing, except for the fact that in my world there is a city called Manhattan!"
"Manhattan? That sounds ridiculous."
"How do you think Manehattan sounds to me?"
"True true."
"Look at that, we've already reached the forest."
"Should we look for my friends? Or maybe i should go alone and try to reason with them first?"
"Your second plan is our best option i think. Let's try to find them and while you talk with them i'l wait in the darkness."
"Sounds like a plan to me! Let's do this!"
Rainbow was starting to accept that he was a monster.
"Our best chance at finding them is if we head towards town which is that way."
"Which way and how do you know where to go?"
"Follow the hoofprints."
She looked down and saw a lot of hoofprints.
"Oh, i knew that."
After half an hour their plan failed horribly because they were seen by some scouts while they were in a clearing.
"Crap, they found us. I hope i don't need to fight. It wouldn't be a fair fight for those guys."
"Those are royal guards from the princess! They were looking for me!"
"I think they were also checking if i was actually dead."
"Yeah yeah, that too."
"RAINBOW!! YOU'RE NOT DEAD!! I TOLD YOU SHE'D SURVIVE!!"
Out of nowhere a pink mare started hugging Rainbow Dash real tight surprising everyone.
"Pinkie... Can't... Breath..."
"I think you are choking her."
Pinkie only noticed the big guy now he was talking to her. With a poof she and Rainbow were gone.
"Well, that was interesting."
The guards were getting ready to attack.
"If your going to attack please let me put away my bag."
"And why should we let you do that?"
He showed them Seawing who was still asleep.
"That's why."
"Fine. Hand the bag over and nothing will happen to the dragon."
"Good. Now who want's to be beaten first?"
He noticed five ponies at the edge of the clearing. He recognized them as Rainbow and her friends. While he was looking at them one of the unicorn guards charged at him. He just threw a lazy punch at the guard flinging him into a tree. The guard was instantly knocked out.
"Who's next? And please give me a bigger challenge than that."
One of the guards tryed to kick against Scar's legs but failed thanks to a big hand that picked him up.
"How about some bowling?"
He threw the guard against five other guards, knockin out three of them.
"Seven down three to go. This is way to easyaaaAAARRGGG!!!"
A purple blast of magic hit him straight between the eyes. After all those years his bandages finally came lose thanks to Twilight's magic. His eyes were a glowing bloodred and the only thing that wasn't red inside of his eyes were his pitchblack pupils.
"That hurt a lot but i should thank you Twilight, because now i have full sight again!"
With one big wave of his right hand he knocked the other guards out. Twilight started shooting more magic at him but to no avail. He slowly aproached her not speeding up or slowing down. When he reached her she was panicking, fear written all over her face.
"S-s-stay away y-y-you monster!
He moved his hand towards her but he was blown away by a white burst of magic. He got up and in front of him stood a very pissed off horse with a horn and wings.
"You will not harm my little ponies anymore!"
"And who might you be?"
"I am princess Celestia, the ruler of Equestria. And who are you?"
'Crap' "My name is Scar."
"Why are you hurting my ponies Scar?"
"They started! I'm only a visitor who doesn't know how to get back to his homeworld."
"World?"
"Yeah. Turns out the spirit of chaos decide to sent me and my friends to this world."
"That is unfortunate. I shall send you back right now."
"NO!!"
The princess was taken aback by his outburst.
"You can't send me and my friends back to that hellhole! Please let us stay, i'l do anything but don't sent us back..."
"Why do you not want to go to your home?"
"To make you understand that you would need to see my memories."
"Then i will. Anypony else who want's to see it too?"
"I would like to know what's so special about that world of yours."
"Me too. I can take it."
The volenteers were Rainbow and Twilight.
"You sure? My memories are like nightmares."
"I don't care."
"Like i said, i can take it."
And with that the princess, Twilight and Rainbow went into Scar's mind.
chapter 5, Scar's past.
Author notes: when the memories are being displayed it's from Scar's POV and during the breaks between them the POV switches between Twilight, Rainbow, Celestia and Scar.
"Where are we?"
The world around Rainbow, Twilight and Celestia was blank.
"Inside of Scar's mind i think."
"That's right Twilight, we are inside of his mind and he should be around here too."
Suddenly rusted metal walls covered in blood came out of the floor surrounding the trio.
"Scar, this isn't funny."
"I'm sorry but my mind is a dangerous place and these walls will protect you."
"Protect us from what?"
Suddenly a picture appeared showing a black version of Scar with a maniac look on his face.
"It will protect you from my other personality."
"So you have multiple personality disorder..."
"What's multiple personality disorder?"
"Multiple personality disorder. It's a mental illness that creates another mind inside of the same body. The illness is created from traumatising events in the past."
"I think i get it."
"Are you ready to see my past?"
"Yes."
"Then i'l start with the day my mother got killed."
"Mommy, is that man sick?"
A man was coughing up blood and had empy white eyes.
"Yes Sam and we should leave now."
"But mom, he needs help!"
"He is an infected from the news. We can't help him. Now come here we're supposed to be home before diner."
"Okay mom, i'm comi-AAAAAGGGG!"
"SAM!"
The man had taken a bite out of Sam's shoulder and was trying to bite again.
"STAY AWAY FROM MY SON!"
With a sickening crack she smashed the skull of the infected man.
"Let's go home Sam. Daddy will know what to do."
Ten minutes later.
The door was thrown open as Sam was dragged into the house.
"Roy come quickly! Sam has been bitten by one of those infected!"
"Perfect."
"What do you mean with perfect?! Our five year old son needs medical help right now and you aren't doing anything!"
"Start capture now."
"What?!"
Three men came storming through the door and took Sam away from his mother.
"Mom? What are they doing?"
"GIVE ME MY SON BACK! HE NEEDS ME! I WILL-" BANG!
When Sam turned around he saw that his mothers head was blown of and brain matter was all over the wall. His dad just killed his mother.
"She was always in the way. Now where were we. Sam, i'm going to use you for some 'tests'."
That day he didn't only lose his mother, he also lost his father.
The three ponies were shocked with what they saw.
"I can't believe he did that..."
Celestia was the only one that could say something.
"Now to the part where my father uses me for some 'tests'."
When Sam opened his eyes he was in a white room with very bright lamps. He only had some pants on.
"Mom?"
"I killed mom, remember?"
His father was behind a thick wall of glas. His words caused Sam to cry.
"Why? Why did you kill mom?!"
"My work is top-priority. Work comes first, family later."
Was this really his father that was in front of him?
"Start the injection."
A lot of needles suddenly came out of the ceiling and injected themselves into Sam's back causing him to scream in agony.
"Inject the chemicals."
Strange chemicals were put inside of his body causing even more pain.
"AAAAAAGGGGGG!!!!"
"Start the activation procedure."
All the needles went back into the ceiling and another one came out of the floor. The difference was that this needle went in his head and it had an electricity cable atached to it. A long flow of electricity went into Sam.
"ZASHGAAAAAARRRGLLLZZZ!!!!"
The electricity activated the chemicals inside him and his body started to change. His skin became a sickly blue, he grew to two and a half meters tall, his teeth became sharper and three times their original size ripping his cheeks apart. His eyes went from blue to a litteraly glowing bloodred. His arms were getting longer and more muscular. His hands grew to the size of a pony and his arms skin became thick and black. His back became a bit hunched over and the muscles in his torso also became bigger. He looked like a mutated Tank with less muscles. The transformation caused a pain that was undiscribeble and he was bleeding all over his body.
"Perfect. Son, looks like you need a new name. How about, Subject 555?"
Of course Sam didn't respond, he was to weak to even move.
"Looks like you could use some help. Bring him to his cell."
After a lot of effort they managed to get him in his cell. It was covered in blood and vomit.
"Subject 555, welcome to your new home."
The three ponies couldn't believ their eyes. That a man would do such a thing to his own son was beyond their imagination.
"Shall i continue to the next part?"
They just nodded.
Sam opened his eyes and saw that he was still in his 'new home'. He hoped it was all just one big nightmare.
'Can i still move? Or talk? Or even do anything at all?'
He tried to get up and it went surprisingly easy.
'I can still move. But can i talk?' "Hhh... Hhha... Hhhe... Hhhelp... Help. Help! HELP! HEELLLRRRGGAAAAAAZZZZKK!"
He noticed he had a low, gravely and loud voice. He was interupted by a jolt of electricity from his neck. He checked if something was wrong and noticed he had a metal ring around his neck.
'What is this ring around my neck?!'
"If you try to talk you will be electrocuted and that will also happen if you resist an order or if you try to escape."
A man in a lab coat stood behind the metal bars of his cell.
"It's time for you to do some 'work'."
'Uh-oh.'
The man opened the door and told Sam to get out of the cell.Once He walked out he saw thousands of cells around him, all of them had an infected inside. A few of the infected were different. One was a girl little girl made up out of other girls and she had stitches at the joints. Another one looked like a male Witch but his claws were longer. There was also a man who looked normal except for the completely red eyes and his black fingers. There was also a man with long black hair and his hands looked like the claws of a preying mantis.
"Get moving you idiot."
He followed the man towards a big machine. The machine was covered in blood and gore. Around it were infected and normal people.
"Your job is to keep this machine working by throwing the infected and the people into it."
Sam picked up a man and threw him inside the machine. What he saw would haunt him forever. The man was being torn apart slowly by metal spikes and he was set on fire at the same time. The screaming went on for five minutes and then the man was dead.
"Good. Now keep doing that until someone tells you to stop."
He started his job but with every person or infected he threw in his mind and soul became more numb. After five whole years he was like a robot. He only did what he was told to do and nothing else. Until he was told to throw those strange infected from before into the machine. He just stood there and stared at them.
"Didn't you hear me? Throw them into the machine!"
"No."
"No? Is that your answer? Maybe a bit of electricity will motivate you!"
A lot of electricity went through Sam's body but he didn't listen. In fact he walked towards the man in the lab coat.
"What are you doing?! Put me down! No not the crusher not the crusher!"
"Farewell. May you live in hell for eternity."
"No! NO! NOOOOOOAAAAARRGGGGGGGLLLLLUUUUUUGGGHHHHH..."
He raised his hands and smashed the machine till it was nothing but scrap metal. He turned towards the strange infected. They looked very scared of him.
"What do you say we have some revenge?"
They we're suprised by his idea. Their looks quickly changed from fear to determination. The little girl walked towards him and looked him straight in the eyes.
"What's your name mister big guy?"
"Call me Scar. What's your name?"
"I don't have one..."
"How about i call you Stitch?"
"I like that name."
She climbed up to his left shoulder and sat down on it. The infected with the long claws stepped forward.
"My name's Slicer."
The man with the red eyes stepped forward too.
"I'm Runner!"
The man with the mantis claws stepped forward too.
"I'm Mantis."
"What do you say about some revenge? If you see a man in a commander suit and he has a small mouststache, don't kill him. He's mine to kill."
"Sounds good."
"Count me in!"
"Okay!"
"Let's go then."
Suddenly the alarm went of and armed guards came running into the room.
"Here we go!"
Runner was real fast and had quickly killed two of the guards by sutting their throats. Slicer killed two of the guards by slicing them to parts. Mantis just slashed and smashed at the guards. Scar killed three of them by smashing them into the wall and crushing their bones and insides. Stitch was a real surprise. Apparently her limbs were retractable and she just choked the guards to death. All twenty guards were killed in less than a minute. Mantis and Runner went to the left side of the facility and Scar, Stitch and Slicer went to the control center.
The trio reached the center in six minutes killing everyone in their way except for the other infected and the prisoners. The walls were covered with corpses and the floors littered with blood and limbs.
At the control center was his father wearing a mech suit desinged for war only.
"Stitch, Slicer, you beter stand back because i don't want you two to die."
They went back into the hallways to watch the battle.
"Hey."
"Son, you dissapoint me. You have killed al the workers and all the guards. You're friends are escaped experiments and you want to kill me. Where did it go wrong?"
"I'm not your son. When you killed my mother, i also lost my father."
"Pathetic. It's time you learn the final lesson: death."
"Bring it."
With that said Roy fired three rockets. All of them blocked by Scar's hands. Scar ran at Roy and tore off the rocket launcher. Roy punched him in the stomach. Scar punched back and sended Roy flying into the wall. Scar kept punching Roy.
"Hey 'dad', looks lik i've learned YOU a lesson: Don't mess with The Crusher."
With one more punch Roy flew through the wall and fell towards the ground. Sadly, for Roy, he was a hundred meters tall. But he took Scar with him. Scar used his hands to block the crash.
Five years later.
Scar, Stitch and Slicer started traveling together and Runner and Mantis started traveling together and gathering hunters. During their traveling the trio met Little Tim and Mena. At this point they have claimed a part of the city for themselves. Scar went to his old house to get some pictures of his old friend Jim and his mother. The group of infected minimized killing to only when they were under attack and when they needed food.
Three years later.
Author notes:This part is the prologue so i'm not going to rewrite it.
The three ponies were now outside of Scar's mind and Rainbow Dash vomited and fell down trembling with fear and disgust. Twilight was spaced out and the princess had a look of sympathy and worry on her face.
"I'm sorry but i did warn you about what you were about to see."
"I know, but i didn't expect that. Now i understand why you don't want to return. But i'm worried about your friends. Are you not worried about your friends?"
"I am, but i needed to know where i am and i needed supplies."
"You have had a difficult past to say the least and you are welcome to stay at Canterlot. If you come i shall do my best to locate them."
"I'l come but only if i can take Seawing with me."
"Of course but who is that?"
Scar showed Seawing to her.
"Where is her mother?"
"Dead. We found her crying next to her mother's corpse."
"And the father?"
"Gone."
"Then we should head towards Canterlot."
"W-w-wait! I'm coming too."
Rainbow had gotten back up.
"You sure about that?"
"Yes."
"Okay."
"I'm coming too."
"If you insist, then fine."
"Hold on. What the hay just happend inside his mind?"
"He showed us his past and how much pain he has seen and i think he at least deserves to be with his friends."
"Well, if you two are going then ahm going too."
"Me too, me too!"
"I would like to come too, if you don't mind..."
"You are all willing to help me?"
"I have seen enough. I'm coming too."
Rarity had been watching everything from the sideline.
"Rarity? But you would be in Manehattan for at least another week!"
Rainbow was the most surprised one.
"True, but when i heard that there was a monster at Ponyville i simply couldn't stay."
"Well the more the merrier!"
Pinkie was getting more excited with the second.
"I hate to break the moment, but shouldn't we be going to Canterlot?"
"Of course."
With one big flash the main six, the princess, Scar and Seawing were teleported to Canterlot.
The search begins with a song or two.
chapter 6, The search begins.
When they arrived at Canterlot all guards present glared at him. Bad choice because Scar hates it when others glare at him.
"Would you stop glaring at me."
"Guards, get back to your work. Scar here will be here Sometimes because i decided to help him."
The guards continued their work but there was still the occasional glare.
"So how are we going to find my friends the fastest?"
"I know what they look like so i'l use a search spell."
"I've been wondering Scar, i noticed a lot of machines in your memories but no magic at all."
"Well that's easily explained Twilight. My world doesn't have magic. It only exists in stories, myths and legends."
Twilight was a bit shocked by this but she expected it. Why else would there be so much technology in that world.
"We use technology instead of magic. Humans have also improved their weapons. As an example the gun: it's like a minature cannon, but it can hold more ammunition and the cannon bals fly ten times faster. In theory it's one of the most used weapons in my world."
"Wow."
"Scar, i have located two of your friends. They are in the middle of Everfree forest and it looks like there is a lot of... music? I also sense a lot of what you called Hunters?"
"Sounds like Runner and Mantis to me. Looks like they gathered some Hunters after all. We'l be needing food, a map, a compass and some water."
"What about Seawing?"
"I believe princess Celestia will know what to do. I don't want to bring Seawing into more danger."
"I shall take care of her while the seven of you look for Runner and Mantis."
"Oh! I still need to tell Spike i'm going to be gone for a while!"
Twilight ran of to write a letter to Spike.
"Who is Spike?"
"Spike is a cute,adorable,funny,nice and little baby dragon! He is Twilight's number one assistance!"
"Okay... I'l go pack the stuff we need. Does anyone of you know how to read a map?"
"You can't read? *GAAAAAAASSSSSP* That means if i sent you an invatation you won't know it's an invitation and you won't know there's a party and and and...."
"Breathe, Pinkie, breathe."
"*GAAAAAASSSSSP* I can read maps!"
"Good."
Half an hour later.
"Do we have everything?"
"I made a checklist and we have evrything."
"We'l let's go then."
With one big flash the princess teleported the seven of them to the edge of Everfree.
"Well let's start with heading towards the center."
They started walking with Twilight in front reading the map. Pinkie was too busy thinking about how to give Scar and his friends a party.
"I hope they like cake. Should i use streamers? Maybe i should bake some muffins!"
Pinkie's rambling went on for another five minutes till Scar stopped to listen to something.
"I think i hear something. Follow me."
"What do you mean? I don't hear anything."
"My hearing is twice as good as yours so it's no surprise you can't hear it."
"Oh."
After another five minutes the ponies heard it too. It sounded like a mix of different kinds of music. There was Jazz, Rock, Techno, Classic, Dubstep and singing.
"I think we're getting close to them."
"Hey Scar! Long time no see! Too long actually!"
From the shadows stepped a Hunter with a green hoodie with blue flames on it. His eyes were hidden under the cap of his hoodie.
"Runner, i knew we were getting close to you when i heard the music."
"You aint heard nothing yet! And you're being pretty rude. Aren't ya going to introduce me to your friends here?"
"You're right. This bouncing pink one is Pinkie Pie. The orange one with the hat is Applejack. The purple one is Twilight Sparkle. The blue one is Rainbow Dash and according to her she's the fastest flyer of Equestria. The shy one with the yellow coat is Fluttershy. The white one with the stylish mane is rarity."
"I never took ya for a pony person."
"Haha, very funny. And now back to the serious stuff. You and i are send to this world thanks to some weird spirit of chaos and our friend were send to but to other random places."
"Really? That's great! The more the merrier!"
"This world is better than the old one but we still need to find everyone."
"I know i know, but now it's time for a little song!"
"Fine."
"We must follow me!"
"He is almost like the human version of Pinkie Pie!"
Twilight was clearly worried about that little fact.
"Hey hunts! It's time for a little song!"
Six hunters came from the shadows and they all were wearing black hoodie with purple flames on it.
"Everyone, meet the brothers Hunt. The brothers Hunt, meet everyone."
After a bit of walking they reached the source of the music. It was in and around the old castle.
"But this is the princesses old castle! You can't use that as your home!"
Twilight didn't like the fact that the old castle was now a home for hundreds of hunters.
"And why not?"
"Because, cause, because... Never mind."
"Good!"
They entered a building that looked like a bar. Inside were a lot of hunters talking, drinking and other stuff.
"Boys, get to your places. It's time for a song."
"Is it going to be a story Boss?"
"Yep. And what a story it is. A tragic tale of romance, passion and a murder most fowl. "
Meanwhile the brothers Hunt were ready. Three of them were at the instruments. One of those three was at the piano, another one at the saxophone and the third at the strings. The other three were on the podium. Runner was also on the stage.
"This is gonna be good." One of the other hunters said.
"Hit it boys."
The music started.
Runner: Hey! Give me a listen you corpses of cheer
Leastles of you who still got an ear
I'll tell you a story make a skeleton cry
Of our own jubiliciously lovely corpse bride
The brothers Hunt: Die, die we all pass away
But don't wear a frown cuz it's really okay
And you might try 'n' hide
And you might try 'n' pray
But we all end up the remains of the day
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Runner: Well our girl is a beauty known for miles around
When a mysterious stranger came into town
He's plenty good lookin', but down on his cash
And our poor little baby, she fell hard and fast
When her daddy said no, she just couldn't cope
So our lovers came up with a plan to elope
The brothers Hunt: Die, die we all pass away
But don't wear a frown cuz it's really okay
And you might try 'n' hide
And you might try 'n' pray
But we all end up the remains of the day
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
(instrumental)
Runner: So they conjured up a plan to meet late at night
They told not a soul, kept the whole thing tight
Now her mother's wedding dress fit like a glove
You don't need much when you're really in love
Except for a few things, or so I'm told
Like the family jewls and a sachel of gold
Then next to the grave yard by the old oak tree
On a dark foggy night at a quarter to three
She was ready to go, but where was he
The brothers Hunt: And then?
Runner: She waited.
The brothers Hunt: And then?
Runner: There in the shadows, was it the man?
The brothers Hunt: And then?
Runner: A little heart beat sooo loud
The brothers Hunt: And then?
Runner: And the baby, everything went black
Runner: Now when she opened her eyes she was dead as dust
Her jewels were missin' and her heart was bust
So she made a vow lyin' under that tree
That she'd wait for her true love to come set her free
Always waiting for someone to ask for her hand
When out of the blue comes this groovy young man
Who vows forever to be by her side
And that's the story of our own corpse bride
The brothers Hunt: Die, die we all pass away
But don't wear a frown cuz it's really okay
And you might try 'n' hide
And you might try 'n' pray
But we all end up the remains of the day
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Runner: Yeeeaaaah!
All the hunters started clapping and cheering and Pinkie joined in. Twilight was amazed at how they used the instruments.
"That was interesting."
"Hey Scar! Why don't you sing a song?"
"Why?"
"I remeber hearing you sing a song you called 'Awoken'. It sounded good and you should lighten up!"
"Fine."
The brothers Hunt took out some more modern looking instruments and Scar got onto the stage. The brothers Hunt started playing some music .
Scar: What cause have I to feel glad?
I've built my life on judgement and causing pain
I don't know those eyes I see in the bloodstained chrome
Now everything that I've had
And everything I've known have been thrown away;
And with time, I've come to find this isn't my home
I've stoked the fire
Seen more pain than you can know
The tears of the broken have washed away my soul
Pushed by desire
To change the way my stream will flow
Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control
I try my best to block out the screams
But they're haunting me in my dreams
Please, break my shackles, I want it to stop
I man these wretched machines
Day in, day out, the grinding wears on my brain
Undermining my sanity, making me question my reality
But life is not as it seems
Should I take a chance for freedom and throw it all down the drain?
I've been imprisoned, please burn my transgressions away
I've stoked the fire
Seen more pain than you can know
The tears of the broken have washed away my soul
Pushed by desire
To change the way my stream will flow
Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control
I try my best to block out the screams
But they're haunting me in my dreams
Please, break my shackles, I want it to stop
I'm sick of hurting,
Sick of thinking it's all I do
I break those around me, those spared are very few
But the bright sun is burning
And my sky shines, ever blue
Friendships surround me; I'm becoming a part of you
All hunters (and PInkie and Rainbow) were clapping and cheering for Scar. The other ponies were amazed at how good Scar was.
"Told you he was good! And isn't it strange how much this song matches his past and present?"
"That was soooooo awesome! His voice went all different and the song was soooo cool!"
"Awwwwwwwww yeeeeaah!"
Pinkie and Rainbow were amazed at how good it went.
"Hey Scar! You really are a great singer!"
He just walked past them.
"Scar?"
"Just, leave me alone for a little while."
"What's his deal?"
Runner sat down next to them.
"It happens from time to time. He has some mental problems but that's normal after what he went through. One of the problems is that he get's depressed from time to time."
"But he's really nice! What meanie would do something to hurt him so much?"
"His father."
Pinkie's mane deflated a bit.
"I'm not going into the details because his story is really gory. Good night. I'l come with you tommorow. Mantis should be back by sunrise."
With that being said everyone went to sleep.
And here's some creepy music: No Money, Down Low Monthly Payments.
And some more: Child Protective Services Theme Song.
chapter 7, Stitch is here too!
Author notes: The following chapters will be from Stitch's POV or that of a pony (i'm not telling who!). The following chapters start at the same time in the story as that of Scar.
Stitch opened her eyes and wondered where she was. She was in some kind of wooden room. It was dark. She stood up and looked for the door when it hit her.
'Where's Scar!?'
She started panicking. Scar was practicly her big brother and since they met he was always there for her.
She looked through the window when she heard someone walking.
"Who's there?"
Stitch climbed to the window and was ready to jump when the door opened. She saw a blue pony with a silver mane. She jumped through the window before the pony could take a good look at her.
"Get back here whatever you are!"
'A blue talking pony? I must be losing it.'
"You can't escape me!"
Stitch felt a sharp pain in the back of her head and she lost consciousnes.
A few hours later.
Stitch opened her eyes and saw she was back in the chariot. She noticed she was tied to a chair. She looked up and saw the same blue pony from before glaring at her. She now noticed that the pony has a horn.
"What are you and what where you doing in my chariot!?"
'Looks i haven't lost it after all. This place is just messed up.' "I'm Stitch and i'm an infected. As for what i was soing here, i don't even remeber getting here."
"So you can talk. I don't know if your intentions are bad or good, so you're going to stay right where you are."
"Why?!"
Stitch wanted to return to Scar as quickly as possible.
"Because you might be dangerous, that's why!"
Stitch had to admit that sounded reasonable. She might look like a little girl and her personality might resemble one, but she's way smarter than the average survivor. But on emotional levels she's like an unstable little girl. And for your information, she's actually nineteen years old! Only five years younger than Scar is!
"But i need to find Scar!"
"There are more of you?"
"He looks very different from me and he looks mean but he's really nice."
"I'l believe it, if i get to see it. Until i know you're not dangerous, you are staying here."
"But, but-" "No buts. You're staying there, got it?"
"No."
"What?"
"I said no."
Her arms suddenly started to show of their full size: two meter long arms covered in sitches and very bendable like at tentacle. She untied herseld with great ease but couldn't get up from the chair. She noticed she was surrounded by a purple aura and so was the pony's horn.
"What kind of monster are you?!"
Did i mention Stitch is emotionly unstable? Well anyways, what the pony said really hurted Stitch. Her arms went back in to her body until they were at average size. She stared to cry.
"Nonononono! Don't cry! I didn't mean it! I was just surprised by your arms."
Stitch looked up and hugged the pony. She always needed a hug when she was sad. The pony was taken back by this and noticed Stitch's skin. Now she understood the name. Stitch was litteraly made up from others body parts. She felt sorry for her and returned the hug.
"*snif* What's your name?"
"My proffesional name is 'The Great And Powerfull Trixie' but somepony showed me that with bragging and showing off you don't get very far so you can just call me Trixie."
"That's a nice name."
"Thanks. How many of you actually are there?"
No response.
"Stitch?"
She held her in front of her and saw that She had fallen asleep. Now she had a good look at her she saw that Stitch actually looked rather cute. She took out a blanket and put it over Stitch. She also went to bed.
"Good night Stitch."
Next morning.
Trixie opened her eyes and saw that Stitch was gone. Trixie was immediatly awake and started to worry.
'Was she ponynapped? Was everythin from last night an act? Am i going crazy?"
She stopped when she heard a violin from above her.
"A violin?"
She got oustside and saw Stitch playing a nice song while sitting on top of the chariot.
"You can play the violin?"
"Yes. My uncle teached me."
"You're really good at it."
"Thanks!"
"Do you want to come with me?"
"If you help me find Scar."
"I don't have anything else to do so, why not?"
"Yay! Thank you!"
Stitch tied the violin to her back and hopped of the chariot.
"Where do you think he would go?"
"Knowing him he'd probably head towards the closest village around so i think we should be heading to the closest village first."
Trixie didn't like the idea at all.
"Y-y-you sure about that?"
"Yep! Why? Is there something wrong?"
"Welllll i was kind of a jerk and a show-off in the closest town."
"Oh. What's it called?"
"Ponyville."
That sounded strangely familiar to Stitch.
"I'm sure you'l be fine. But i think i'd better stay in the chariot. We don't want to scare anyone."
"Fine, let's go then."
"How long is it going to take to get there?"
"Probably two days."
"Okay."
"Trixie?"
"Yes?"
"You don't have any meat with you, do you?"
Trixie's eyes went wide at this.
"You mean..."
"That i'm a carnivore. You can thank those scientist for that."
"Scientist?"
"I'm made up out of others bodies and others personalities. They wanted me to be a walking weapon and they succeeded. I'm an artificial infected created to kill all the other infected. Something went wrong and i gained an unstable personality. For the experiment to succeed they brought me to life and then they gave me a body by stitching body parts to the brain. It was really painfull."
"That's horrible..."
"And to make it worse, i can't grow or get older."
"So you can't die of age?"
"That's not true. My lifespan is three hundred years at maximum. You just can't see the difference between me being a hundred years old and me being nineteen years old."
"That's strange."
"Scar has it worse. His father killed his mother. Scar was also turned into what he is now thanks to his father. His father ordered him to kill thousands of lives just for 'the sake of sience'."
"And he didn't refuse?"
"That was hard because of a metal ring around his neck that gives him a shock strong enought to kill someone. His mind slowly became numb thanks to the pain he felt and the pain he brought upon others."
"That's horrible."
"Tell me about it."
"Stitch?"
Stitch knew that voice very good. She looked to her left and she saw Fright.
"Fright? Is that you?"
"Stitch who are you talkin wi... Is that one of the others?"
"Yep! That's Fright! Can he come too?"
"Well i don't know..."
Stitch gave her the puppy eyes.
"That's not gonna work on me."
Five minutes later.
"I can't believe that worked."
Stitch and Fright were chatting to each other about what they had seen so far.
"*sigh* Well, at least he looks nice."
"Trixie? You wanna know why his honorific is 'The Slicer'?
"Sure why not."
Trixie turned around and her eyes went wide once again. Fright had rolled up his sleeves and he revealed two really long and sharp claws.
"Let me gues, he can slice through almost anything with his claws."
"That is right miss Trixie."
"You can leave the miss out. We've made quite some distance since we headed of so we should reach Ponyville in one and a half days."
With that they continued further not noticing they were being watched by a creature with a look filled with insanity on it's face.

Monster party! P.S. The monsters die (most of them).
Chapter 8, Monster party! P.S. The monsters die.
"I told you to go left!"
"How could i know there was a Basilisk heading this way!?"
"Because i told you!?"
"How could i know you weren't making things up!?"
"You should just have gone left!"
Yep. They were having a fight while being chased by a Basilisk.
"You should have listened!"
"Girls?"
"And you should have been clearer!"
"Girls?"
"How was i not clear enough!?"
"GIRLS!"
"What!?"
"Were being chased by a blood thirsty Basilisk and you are letting me pull the chariot! That's what!"
"Oh yeah. I forgot."
Trixie and Stitch were smiling sheepishly at Fright and he was giving them the famous bemused look.
"I might be stronger than i look, but i can't keep this up forever."
"Should we kill it? I'm still hungry."
"What?"
Trixie knew that Stitch and Fright are carnivores but she still didn't like the idea of it.
"Stitch is right. We still need food. I'm sorry Trixie but i don't think we can outrun it eather."
"Fine. But i'm not going to look. And remeber don't look into his eyes."
"Okay."
Fright stopped running and threw of his jacket showing his claws in full glory.
"Stitch, you ready?"
"As i'l ever be!"
Fright jumped ran forward and slice right through the Basilisk's tail, cutting the end of. Stitch jumped up and poked the eyes out. Fright jumped up too and sliced of the whole lower jaw.
"UUUAUAAAAARGGGGGG!!!!!" The Basilisk screamed in agony.
"Almost got him!"
Stitch climbed into the Basilisk's head and started eating the brain.
"Really Stitch, really? You're going directly for the brains?"
"Braaaaaiiiinnnnssss...." she responded.
"Ugh... just kill it already."
"O-k!"
The beast fell over and was dead before it hit the ground.
"Lunch is ready! Or is it brunch?"
"I think it's brunch because we haven't had breakfast this morning."
"Okay!"
While they were eating Trixie felt sick because of the smell of blood and gore that filled the air.
"Are you okay Trixie? You look like you're about to throw up."
"Yeah, i don't feel so good. How was the meaaaAAAAA!"
"What?"
"You're covered in blood and gore and and uuuuurrrkkkk...."
Trixie threw up at the sight of Stitch covered in blood and gore.
"Oops. Sorry."
"Never mind... But please take a bath before after eating."
"Okay. Maybe you should sleep for a little while."
"Sounds good. Wake me up if we reach Ponyville. Just keep heading south."
"Okay!"
Five hours later.
"Trixie? Wake up."
"Five more minutes."
"TRIXIE!"
"Wha-what's going on!?"
"We might have a little problem."
"How little?" She didn't like the sound of this.
"Pretty big if a swarm of pony-like bugs is a problem."
"What!?" She quickly headed outside and saw thirty changelings surrounding her chariot.
"What are Changelings doing here!?"
"So that's what they are called!"
"You're not worried at all!?"
"Actually, no. I mean we just killes a Basilisk remember?"
"Oh. I was trying to forget the smell of blood and gore but thanks for bringing it back up."
"Sorry." Stitch smiled sheepishly.
"You're just going to sit there talking all day!?"
"Sorry Fright!"
Trixie now noticed there were already twenty changeling corpses laying around. There were still thirty changelings alive but it looked like Fright already killed quite a lot.
"How long are the changelings here already?"
"Three minutes i think."
"Wow."
The changelings were in a big disadvantage thanks to the lack of ponies.
"Huh?"
Trixie noticed a cave with walls covered in green goo.
"Maybe that's their hive. I'm going to take a look."
She went into the cave and saw that the whole cave was covered in green goo.
"Eeeeeewwww..."
She noticed there were no changeling inside of the cave but there was one cocoon.
"A big cocoon?"
She came closer and noticed that there was a black pony with the size of a new born foal.
"They captured a foal?"
"Really?"
Fright was standing next to her and examined it closely.
"What are we going to do?"
"I'm going to cut the cocoon open."
But before he could do that the cocoon opened broke open on it's own. But what they saw was not a normal foal. It was a changeling's foal.
"Soooooo cute!" Stitch picked the foal up like she would hold a baby. The foal snuggled up to her like she was it's mother.
"Watch out! Changelings feed of love!"
"Like a cutie like this little girl would do that! Can i keep Copycat?"
"You already named it!?"
"Copy is not a 'it'. She's a she. But can i keep her?"
"Well i don't know much about changeling nor the rest of this world so i think Trixie should decide."
"Please? Pretty please? With lot's of sugar!"
"I-i... Ffffffiiiinnnne."
"Yay!"
"But if it starts to eat away your emotions, don't say i didn't warn you!"
"Okay!"
"And you two could use a bath."
"Copy needs a bath too."
"This is gonna be a long day..."
"No it's not."
"What do you mean?"
"It's almost night."
"Ugh... Let's just go back to my chariot. I'l look how far away Ponyville is."
"Okay!"
"Mawa?"
"*GAAAASSP* She said mama!"
"Maybe changelings grow faster than ponies because they are partly bug."
"What do you mean?"
"A bee is fullgrown in three weeks so maybe changelings take about that long? Or maybe that's only till they can walk and fly."
"Whatever. Hey we're only 5 miles from Ponyville right now. If we head out now we might make it before sunset. But first, a bath."
Two hours later.
"We're almost there. Just one more mile and then we're there."
"Grrrrrrr..."
"Hm? Is anyone hungry again?"
"I don't think so. Stitch and i only need to eat once in a month to keep our selves from starving and overeating. You just ate. That means there's an animal nearby."
Trixie was amazed at how quickly Fright found that out.
"The question is, what kind of animal?"
"Hey, someone left a wooden wolf statue behind!"
"That's no statue..."
"Then what is it?"
"It's a timber wolf. A living carnivore plant in the form of a wolf."
"Can it move?"
In response the wolf jumped onto stitch.
"Get of, you stupid overgrown bush!"
She quickly broke it's jaw and ripped out the eyes. The timber wolf stumbled of but before it could escape Copycat bit in it's neck and started draining it of it's emotions. The timber wolf was mentally dead and the body couldn't take anymore eather so it fell over and died.
"Wow! That's my Copycat! Who's a brave foal? You are!"
"Yay! *yawn*."
"Awww! Are you sleepy?" Copycat lay down on her lap.
"Well that was weird."

Chapter 9, Reaching Ponyville, meeting again and a lifeless watcher.
"We're here! But everypony seems a bit nervous..."
"Do we really need to stay inside?"
"Do you want to be chased out of town?"
"No..."
"That's why."
They passed a lime green unicorn and the unicorns eyes immediatly narrowed.
"Oh, hello Trixie ." She said the name with so much venom you'd think the sound of it could kill a bird.
"Hello Lyra..."
"Didn't you learn your lesson last time you were here? Or are you here to brag about how 'great and powerfull' you are?"
"I'm just passing through."
"Like i'd believe that. What's in your chariot?"
"Nothing important."
"I'l take a look myself."
Lyra pushed Trixie out of the way and opened the door.
"Let's see what's in here."
She saw nothing important but she would if she'd look up.
'Don't look up don't look up!' Stitch was holding herself, Fright and Copycat up.
"Looks you weren't lying after all."
Sadly enough Stitch's hands were getting sweaty and slippery.
'Nononononooo!' She slipped and fell to the floor right in front of Lyra.
"Oops."
As soon as Lyra noticed what was in front of her, her eyes went wide, her pupils shrank to the size of beads and she got a mad grin on her face.
"HUM-" *thunk*
Fright knocked her out with a wooden box he had picked up. Stitch and Trixie were staring at him in disbelief.
"What? She was going to give us away. I had to!"
"Okay okay. Looks like she's going to stay with us."
"Bween! Bween!"
"Yep! She's green!"
"Looks like Copycat is getting smarter with the hour."
"I'l bring us to a place where we can stay. Fright, why are you tieing Lyra up?"
"This way she won't scream for help or run away."
"Sounds fair enough."
One hour later.
Lyra's POV.
'Uuuggghhh... My head...'
"Look she's waking up!"
'Huh?'
She opened her eyes and saw a human that looked like she was made up out of other humans.
"Hmmhhhmmmhhmm! Hm? Hmmmmm!!"
"Don't try to talk, your mouth is stuffed and you're tid up."
Another human walked into her sight.
"Bween! Bween!"
She noticed a changeling foal being held by the stitched human.
"Sorry Lyra but we can't let you tell others about them."
Lyra used her magic to remove the cloth in her mouth.
"But why? This should be told to everypony! Humans in Equestria, isn't that amazing!"
"That's the point. We aren't exactly human."
"What do you mean? I'l admit, she looks like she's made up out of other humans."
"That's because i am!"
"What!?"
"We once were normal humans, but we were used for experiments and turned into... abominations."
"But you look fine!"
"My hands don't."
The male human took of his jacket and instead of hands she saw huge claws.
"W-w-what!?"
"Thanks to the experiments we've become carnivore. But we only need to eat once a month."
"I'm Stitch! And he's Fright! And this cutie is Copycat!"
"I'm Lyra."
"Have you seen Scar?"
"Who?"
"Blue skin, big black hands, two and a half meters tall, brown pants, black hair and a bit hunched over?"
"Ooo, you mean that thing that destroyed Fluttershy's house!"
"He did? Probably by accident. I mean he's really big and it has happened before."
"Well I don't feel comfortable that the princess helps him find his 'friends'."
"Hey, don't talk about him like that! He's really nice and his father turned him into this so it's not his fault he looks mean!"
"Oh. Sorry about that. I didn't know that."
"You couldn't have known but Stitch sees him as her big brother so she doesn't like it when others talk about him like that."
"I understand but could you untie me?"
"Fine, but if you try to go away i'l knock you out again."
"Okay."
"Hey, i think i hear something."
Outside the door were muffled sounds and some voices.
"I think they went in here." One of them said.
"You sure?" Another one said. After that the door opened and the ponies outside took a look.
"Well, it's worth a..."
"Why did you stop talk..."
"Not good! Don't scream!" Trixie tried to calm the newcomers down but to no avail.
"MONSTERS!"
"Crap."
One hour later.
Stitch's and Fright's POV.
"Well, we're screwed."
Fright was right. They were in a cage and being held down with magical chains.
"Yup."
"Who'd know ponies are that strong."
"What should we do?"
"Wait for an oppurtunity to escape."
"Okay."
"Luckily for Lyra and Trixie the ponies thought Trixie was trying to rescue Lyra. And because Copycat is still a foal they snet her to the childs care in the hospital."
A pony in what looks like a police suit walked up to them.
"What exactly are you?"
"Mutants, monsters, infected, abominations, subjects 128 and 534 and The Slicer and The Puppeteer. Does that explain something?"
"A bit. At least it explains your looks."
"Have you seen Scar?"
"Who?"
"Blue skin, big black hands, two and a half meters tall, brown pants, black hair and a bit hunched over?"
"Yes i saw him. The princess is helping him to find his friends."
"Where is he now?"
"In Everfree Forest i think."
"Okay. Thanks and goodnight!"
"Hmpf. Goodnight."
Next morning.
Scar's, the main six, Runner's and Mantis's POV.
When Fluttershy opened her eyes she was greeted with the sight of a man with claws like a preying mantis, black hair, a hunched back, without eyes and with a blue shirt and black pants.
"AAAAHH!"
"Good morning to you too."
He had a gentle but low voice.
"Fluttershy! Why did you wake us up?"
Fluttershy looked around and saw she had woken up everyone.
"I'm sorry. It's just that he scared me. No offense..."
"None taken."
"Hey Mantis! Meet the others! and gues who's here!"
"Hello Runner, i'm guessing Scar."
"I'm not letting you gues again."
"Long time no see Mantis."
Scar quickly introduced the main six to Mantis.
"-and now where heading back to town. Do you want to come too?"
"Why not."
"Okay. Everyone pack your stuff we're heading back to town."
Half an hour later.
"Welcome to Ponyville! Can i give a 'Welcome to Ponyville party' now?"
"Not yet."
"Aaawwww why not?"
Pinkie wanted to throw a party for her new friends a LOT.
"Because you can throw a bigger party after we've found everyone."
"Ooo, that sounds like a great idea!"
Two ponies walked up to them.
Trixie's and Lyra's POV.
"Woooow he's big."
"I think i can understand how he accidently destroyed Fluttershy's house."
"Shall we tell him were Stitch and Fright are?"
"Yep."
Scar's, the main six, Runner's and Mantis's POV.
"Hey Lyra! Oh, hello Trixie."
"We have some news about Scar's friends."
"You have my full atention."
"Okay. Don't get angry, but Stitch and Fright are in jail."
"What!? Where!?"
"The big grey building at the east side of town."
"Thanks for the help."
Scar went running towards the jail at pretty high speed and some ponies needed to jump out of the way.
???'s POV.
"I don't know how i got here but i think this is going to be very amusing."
