My name is...

"Is this what my life had become....a pathetic pony whose wasting his life giving pony the protection they need....i save countless lives and does anyone care...no....they don't care.I guess i don't blame them, i'll done some things I'm not proud of and i regret every second of it. I'm treated like garbage and I'm still protecting these ponies. I guess i choose to help ponies instead of hurting them. Is this what you wanted father...me defending pony and not getting respect? If it is then I'm about to quit the organization. I don't care who dies, and if anyone want a hero because they can't protect themselves well then sorry i'm not helping."

"Anypony that's need a hero go look somewhere else. I'm done being a hero. I don't care hard you cry, or how much you plea, your on your own."

" I need to find some where else to go not this soulless city. Granted rarity help change things around here but parts of it is still cruel."
"My name is Blaze gun and I'm done being a hero." the pony said as he disappear into the darkness.

Our story takes place in a magical country called Equestia in a small town called Ponyvile. Where many types of ponies live in harmony. These types of ponies are pegasus pony,unicorn pony, and earth pony . Ponies from here are quite special but one is more special than the rest and that pony is called Princess Twilight sparkle. Inside the castle of friendship she sits and reads a book. She has lavender coat, dark purple mane with a pink line, purple eyes and her cutie mark is a light purple star with 5 white star surrounding it, she is also an Alicorn. She was calmly read until she heard a crash from upstairs.

"What in Equestia!" She said. She as fast as she could to find out what that crash came from. She past many rooms until she open the door that the noise came from . When she entered she saw that all the books that was supposed to be in their shelves are now on the floor. Curious she around and saw that her husband and daughter covered in smoke and dust. The husband was Flash sentry he has orange coat and dark blue mane with light blue tips and a Pegasus and his cutie mark is a blue shield with a lighting bolt. Flash was sweating bullets when twilight gave him a angry stare. How ever the daughter was more happy than scared. The daughter is a pearl white alicorn with light pink and light green mane, her cutie mark is a crescent moon with a star in the middle. Her name was Twinkles wish.

Twilight said very angry,"Would someone please tell me what happened here!?" Both Twinkles and flash were silent at this."well is anypony going to talk?!" she said

"Sorry mom me and dad were making some potions until somepony put in too much nightshade seeds." Twinkles said while she looked at her dad.

" hey the book said 5 seeds." Flash said in his defense
"No it didn't it said 4."Twinkles said
"No it said 5."
"It said 4!"
"Five!"

"Four!"

"Five!"

"Four!"

"ENOUGH!" Twilight shouted.Ending the two's argument."I don't care whose fault it is just clean it up" When she said that both Twinkles and Flash went to clean up the mess they made. Twilight trot up to twinkles and said "I expect you to be a little less careless than that."

"It's not my fault dad didn't read the book correctly." Twinkles said

"I did read that book correctly!"Flash said

Twilight roll her eyes and said"I know sweetie just be careful. Your 18 you should be less reckless than this" Twinkles hung her head in shame

"I'm sorry." Twinkles said

Twilight said" It's OK none of the books seems damaged so no harm done." Twinkles smile same back but twilight said"But you are still doing extra chores for this."
"But-"
"No buts!" Twilight interrupt

"Fine."Twinkles said. With that said Flash and Twinkles worked to clean up.For the first hour they worked in silence until "Hey dad why does twilight have so many books?" Twinkles asked

Flash took sometime to think and then he said " I don't know. Your mom have always been a bookworm". He lightly chuckle.then she said "Wow I'm surprised that she didn't Marry a science book."she laughed then Flash said" I know right I had to fight for her love against a book. It was close but I won." Flash made a confident grin. Twinkles giggle and said "I don't know i saw her kiss the physics book yesterday." "Aw man and after all that work." he said playful mad. Both laugh like crazy until twilight yell "you better be working!!" After that they work quickly in hope that twilight doesn't get mad.

In a dark alley in Manehattan a figure appear wearing a suit.The suit hug and his entire body. The suit is a jet black and the boots are dark grey. He also wear a mask with was also jet back but the eye-hole were clover by grey goggles and also wear a black fedor

The figure remove the hat and reveal a horn.the said " why am still here? No pony wants my help.now where to go." The figure use his magic and pull out a map from his pocket dimension bag."now where to?"The figure look over many places "Canterlot hmmm...no too many stuck up snobs..plus Blueblood is live there and i don't want to meet him...hm Trottingham....nah just another version of Manehattan....Tartarus wait a minute why is that even here*sigh*i told the author not to do that." Yeah well I did do it, so deal with it "Fine but we are going to have a talk later." Fine "...hmmm Ponyvile yes that the place." He said as he roll up the map and start walking while hiding himself in the shadow."You know ponies trot right Flare?" The figure said while talking to the sky. Shut up and start trotting Blaze "Fine but I'm just pointing out facts!" As he yelled to the sky he start trotting to the train station.

As he-"hey author why don't you just put me in Ponyvile? It'll save me some time and you some words."Blaze interrupted and suggested.

I could do that but that's boring and lazy writing.

"Aw come on."Blaze yelled.

No Blaze. Take the long route.

"Fine." Blaze said

Now then as Blaze was talk to the sky he was making sure no guard find him. Today he heard that they double protrol and had some of the wonderbolt looking around manehattan to find him.

"Remind me again why they are looking for me and not somepony else." Blaze yelled at the sky

Because they think your a villain worst than Tirek.

"Ouch that hurtful." Blaze sounded hurt.

Yes it is. I guess ponies just don't like you.

"But why?"Blaze had a very confused look on his face.

If you just read your character bio you would know why. Now stop forth wall breaking we got a story to write.

" Fine. Also you never gave one!"Blaze said angry.

I'll give you one. now back to the story.

After a 2 hour of trotting and hiding.

"Really it took me that long."Blaze said surprised

Manehattan is huge dude. It's probably bigger than Canterlot.

"Good point. "Blaze said

Blaze was one block away from the station. He was close to his freedom .....until someone yelled "FREEZE" Then a bunch of spotlight were on him.He had to cover his eyes with his hoof. A stallion came up to him. He was a white unicorn with dark blue and light blue mane.His cutie mark is a dark blue shield with a pink star on it and 3 dark blue star on top of the shield. He also wear the Canterlot royal armor. He had six guards be hide him and a wonder-bolt. She wore a blue jumpsuit with a lighting bolt on it and had rainbow mane.

"Dang why have a captain of the royal guard and an element of harmony against me"*he yell at the sky*

Because i want to show off you skills.

"Alright!"Blaze yelled happily.

The white stallion look at him like he is a crazy pony,"um ...who are you talking to?" He asked.

Blaze said,"The author!!" Everypony look at him with a confused look."Alright let cut to the chase Shining armor and Rainbow dash. you're here to capture me aren't you cause i know your not here for a chimichanga dance. I could show you but my chimi can't never match my changa if you know what i mean." Blaze said with a smirk

Rainbow said"what?*shook her head*listen I'm in a rush so just give up so we can all go home."

"Hmm...how about no!"Blaze yelled.

Rainbow sigh,"looks like I'll be late for dinner sorain." she spread her wings and took flight, "last chance."

"Again no!" when he said that received a strong punch in the face from Rainbow hard enough to send him a few feet away. "Too easy" Rainbow confidently said until a magical blast hit her and she landed head first onto a metal wall and fell down. When she got up she was surprised that Blaze blasted her.

"Come on Rainbow the author wouldn't let me get defeated that easily!"Blaze said, once again breaking the forth wall.

"what are you talking about?!"Rainbow yelled.

"oh details, details lets just fight!"Blaze yelled.

"nice battle music."Blaze say to the sky.

Thanks Blaze.

Rainbow had enough of his stupid antics so she flew right at him at top speed. Blaze was able step out of the way at the last second and blast her into a near by wall. Shining ordered two of his guards to attack. One of them try to strike Blaze with a spear but he dodge it and blasted him a few feet way. The other one attempted to slash him with a one-edge blade but he block it with his black double-edge blade.Blaze push the guard away and slashed his gut and blood start coming out.Shining was getting worried so he send in two other guards. The two guards were Pegasus so they took flight and they dive attack him. Blaze dodge the first one but the second one hit him and he made contact with a wall. Blaze grab the guard's head and slammed it on the wall then cast a spell on the side of the building and magic circles appear on the building. Blaze jump and let his hoofs on the magic circles and they let him walk on walls and his ran up the building while dragging the guard head on it.

Rainbow came out of the hole and saw Blaze on top of the building holding a very damaged head of a guard.Blaze then slammed the head on the roof of the building, hard enough to cause a shock-wave. Rainbow trot to the bottom of the building and look up at Blaze. Both had a confident look.

"Come closer Dashie!"Blaze yelled. Blaze did a back-flip and entered a free-fall while Rainbow flew up at him. When they both were a few feet away from each other time slow down. Blaze did a spin and dodge Rainbow. Rainbow eyes widen when she saw Blaze took out his black blade and hit her in the back and she when though the wall of the building. Time speed up and Blaze cast a magic circle and made his landing soft. Shining got angry and worried so he the last two guard attack him at once with sword. Blaze block all their attack with his blade.

" You will pay for what you done!"Shining angry said.

"Hey it's not my fault i'm so good. blame the author!"Blaze said.

"What!! oh never mind!"Shining said.

Blaze create a magical blast wave and send them all a foot away from him.The 5th guard strike him with his sword but Blaze ignore the pain and stab him in the heart. The 6th guard try to strike him but he dodge it and he grab it and broke it into two. The guard was able to land a punch on his face but blaze created a magic blade and it went though his neck and the guard fell down.

"What do you want!!!"Shining angry.

"Freedom from the hate."Blaze simply said.

Shining swing his sword at his neck but Blaze blocked it was his blade . Blaze try to strike his chest but Shining dodge it. Blaze jumped and defect an attack and went behide him and strike his back drawing blood from it. Shining-still able to fight-summon eight magic blades and send them and blaze. Blaze shot a dark beam at the ground and created a dark crystal wall and blocked it.

"How can you do that!? Only Sombra can do that!"Shining asked surprised.

"As much as I would love to explain things, I think this battle is going on long enough" Blaze said.

Rainbow flew out of the hole and land next too Shining.

"Would you two just give up!?"Blaze yelled.

Rainbow flew straight into the air, blood coming out of the scar. Blaze was about to question her plan but Shining almost landed a strike but blaze blocked it at the last second. Blaze had enough so he powered up a magic arrow and send it at shining. Shining created his strongest barrier but his arrow pierce though the shield and when land contact it explode and send shining fly a few yards and pass out from the pain.

Blaze look around and hear a boom and look above and saw Rainbow. Rainbow did a sonic rainbow and head right at blaze. Time slow down again and Blaze strike the ground with his blade and gripped it tightly. Blaze dodge rainbow attack and it was hard enough to create a massive shock wave. Blaze use the force of the shock wave and swung around the blade at high speed and kick rainbow with his hind leg. The kick send Rainbow though a building and landed a few blocks away and finally passed out.

"You know i think this battle could've be better."Blaze said while huffing.Then he cast a healing spell and heal his wounds.

I'm a rookie story writer give me a break. Also i think you miss one.

"Huh" blaze questioned but swiftly dodge a last second punch and then he grab his tail and swing him around. When and tossed him into the air his shot a magic orb and it exploded whenit hit him.

Now you got them all.

"Alright then." as Blaze trot to the train station he went into the bathroom and switch out of his clothes. He came out in his civilian look. Blaze had a crimson coat and spiky jet black mane. His cutie mark is a black dragon covering a fire ruby. He had his small bag which is actually a pocket dimension in which he can put in as much as he want without it gaining size.

Blaze happily said"Ahhhhh what would i do without you bag" He put his other clothes and his sword in the bag.

He went to the train station and payed his ticket and calmly wait for his train. After twenty minutes of waiting his train came and he went inside. He found a seat and show and relax.

" Alright ponyvile here i come." Blaze said

Twinkles was in her room laying in her bed when Twilight's pet owl came in.

Twinkles said " Owlowiscious" The owl look at Twinkles. "I have a weird feeling that something good is going to happened."

Owlowiscious said "who?"

Twinkles said ,"hmmm...maybe your right.Maybe it's all in my head." Looks though the window and saw the moon high in the sky and it was night ,"whoa cleaning and re-shelving took longer than I thought. Good night Owlowiscious."She then tuck herself in bed and drift into a deep sleep unaware of what's going to happened.
