Chapter 5: Uh...oh

It had been five minutes since I had put Dash in the greenhouse and I haven’t found a way to get out and get her. Poor rainbow all alone, I need to get her.

“So…” my mom interrupted my thought. “What have you been doing since we were gone to the grocery store.”

“um…” trying to think of something. “Oh I was just, you know…” my mom looked at me suspiciously. “Watching TV like usual.” my mom wasn’t very convinced, but all she did was give me a smile. I looked at the clock, twelve thirty-four, almost lunch time.

I was watching a NBA game, which then I got an idea. I turned the TV off and went to my parents bedroom and asked my dad. “Hey, I’m going to go outside and play some basketball.” My dad was actually asleep and just gave me a sleeping

“o-okay son whatever.”

I opened the kitchen door and went the way to the greenhouse. I opened the porch door, jumped down from the stairs and walked to the greenhouse. But then, all of the sudden my mom popped out from around the corner of the house in her gardening cloths. I didn’t notice her though and kept walking towards the greenhouse.

“Anthony? What are you doing?” I turned around nervously and there she was.

“Um...uh…” I didn’t know what to say so I made up a fib. “When m-my friend came over last time…”

“Yes?”

“Uh...well we were throwing the Frisbee in the front and it landed in the greenhouse, so I thought now would be a good time to...get it?”

“Okie dokie.” she said And walked past me, heading to the front field. Once she was a suitable range away I walked in and shut the greenhouse door.

“phew, glad I got here Rainbow, my parents always do stuff like this okay...rainbow?” I turned around, nothing. “What the. No no no!” I checked, double checked, even triple checked the area I put her down. How could she! She gave me her word, I knew she was good for nothing, a non loyal element-less pony! I walked out pissed off and slammed the greenhouse door. I let myself go and fall to the ground. All hope of finding her was lost now. I needed to cool down so my parents wouldn’t see me as a psycho. I decided to actually play some basketball. I walked up the steps and around the back side of the rap-around porch. I grabbed the slightly deflated basketball and headed my way to the basketball hoop.

The hoop was an adjustable one, it was also made to dunk on. There was also the barn behind it, and a large evergreen near the house and also near the basketball court. This is where my favorite cat was buried. I’m glad I didn’t have to dig the hole, I don’t think I can go through so many emotions like this anymore. I walked past the evergreen and got to where I thought the three point line was.

This tall evergreen also was a marker for the three point line. I stood in the middle of the basket beside the evergreen with the ball in my hand. I took a deep breath to calm myself down from all the events happening in the two days. In...out...ah. I started to dribble. I shot, swoosh...i made the three point. I am also part of the basketball team at school, but sadly I was probably what they thought of as the worst one. Yep as in, last of the second string. I barely played many games, but I could shoot, I wanted to prove to them that year this. I shot five shots in the whole season. But really, the funny thing is, I did prove them wrong. All five shots I made at home, all five shots made it. Yep I was a one-hundred percent guy for the season. Zero turnovers, one hundred percent in the free throw line and yes I did make two shots at the free throw line.

I grabbed the bouncing ball and picked it up, dribbling it around, behind my back and so forth. I did a couple crossovers and shot it around mid range, again the same expected...swoosh. Oh...and all five of my shots went right through the net, three of them flipped the net.

After an intense workout, I walked back to the front, but before I wanted to see my cat.

“Hey buster, I know your at peace now in your cat heaven, but you think you could help me out. Yeah I know...things got really hard these past few days, saving a rainbow pony from death, then having her disappear when she told me that she would stay.” I looked down at the stone that I made for him, it was just a cement circle with various pieces of the house and broken clay pot pieces that we had found in the front field. “I...I just do not know…” my words were cut off by a loud noise coming from the barn. I turned to see what it was, I couldn’t tell though because of the angle of my view, so the noise must have been coming from behind there. I dropped the basketball, and ran to the barn. I was about halfway to the barn until I heard growling. Oh shit what is that? I saw my dads compound bow and arrow pouch, I picked it up just in case there was something hostile there. I went down to the barn to find it empty. Must have been my damn imagination, hell a whole bunch of stuff has happened. Then I heard a whimper. I ran down past the barn where the woods was.

There she was...Rainbow dash, but she didn’t look that good. Her what was, broken wing was now bleeding, and so was her back hooves. Then I heard the growling and rainbow tremble in fear. She was on the ground with her back hooves slightly off the ground.

“y-you s-stay back n-now,” she tried to act tough. And there it was...it was a pair of coyotes. Both walking around Dash in a circle, showing their menacing, long piercing teeth. One came at her and she kicked it with one of her hooves. After though she must have hurt part of her leg, as she whimpered in pain. I have to do something!

I took an arrow and tried to draw the bow. Oh shit this bow is a sixty pound. I couldn’t do anything with a sixty pound! I was not strong enough to pull it back. I kept trying, nothing. Another one of the coyotes tried to come at her, but she used the other back hoof and hit him square in the face. Again though her other hoof must have taken the damage as she cried in pain this time. Come on Anthony you dumb fuck, just pull it all the way! I kept pulling it, nothing just nothing!

The first coyote started to diminish the circle size and started to gain on dash. Now or never...I pulled one last time...got it! Finally having it pulled back I took a second to aim and shot it. It was almost like in slow mo as the arrow released from the string. It wiggled and then straitened, making its way right toward the first coyote. It pierced right through his neck and the coyote fell to the ground. The other one now looking at me. Oh crap Anthony, do it again quicker this time. I pulled it successfully again with another arrow from my dads pouch, I aimed. The coyote jumped at me, I shot it before it could get a couple feet from me and it landed with a thud. I shot the second one strait through the head. I did it!

I ran over to Rainbow and see how she was. Her hooves were bleeding badly, there was already a stain, she must have lost a lot of blood.

“Its ok Rainbow I am here.” I never saw so much blood pour like this. I tried to stop it with my hands. “I am going to help you, no worries.” I said optimistically.

“Anthony...I need to t-tell you s-s-something.” She looked like she was on her death bed.

“no...no no, rainbow you are not going to die.” I took off my shirt and ripped it to put it around the wounds. Blood still gushed out and quickly stained my shirt quickly. My hands were covered in the blood of my favorite mare.

“I-I want you to know…” Before she could finish, another coyote jumped from the bush behind me. It knocked me to the side. I tried to get an arrow ready as I stood up, I felt my pouch, I had no arrows left. No...this can’t be.

“Rainbow!” I screamed. All I heard was the coyotes teeth piercing the cyan ponies chest. She cried in pain so loudly, I bet my parents would hear it. As I acted on instinct I ran probably the fastest I ever did to grab the hatchet I knew my dad kept near the middle part of the barn. I grabbed the shiny, and newly sharpened ax and ran with it over to where rainbow was. When I got there...there.

The coyote was done with rainbow, as I looked in horror, the cyan mare’s whole chest was teared open, most of the organs were gone, probably eaten by the coyote. Blood was oozing slowly out of her ripped chest on to the green grass. Her small intestine uncoiled, her heart, gone, her whole bodies inside was bloody and with puss. Sh-she-she’s...d-d-dead…

Chapter 6: Weeping Rage

Author's Note

*Cough cough* Title says it all

Chapter 6: Weeping Rage

I fell to the ground on my knees seeing with my own eyes, a ripped apart bloody pony. The coyotes whole face was smothered in blood, the blood of Dash’s. It had enjoyed the snack, while it menacingly licked its chops, I was weeping in tears.

“No…no.” I couldn’t help but cry, and cry for my favorite mare. “I actually l-loved you R-Rainbow…” I tried to say as tears shed from my eyes, Dripping on the cyan mares dead body. I looked over to the coyote, the one who did this.

“YOU!” I yelled at the coyote with rage in my mouth. “You are the one who dragged the poor injured mare here! You killed her! YOU, killed her!” I had the face of an enraged kamikaze. I stood up, with the hatchet sliding down to my hand. “I am going to kill you!” I yelled at the now scared coyote. I started to build up a raging force, so bad it overtook my whole body, soul and mind. I started to run towards the coyote. He noticed quickly what I was doing and started to try to run away. My raging speed though was catching up, the coyote running for his dear life.

“You bastard!” I shouted at the coyote, the hatchet still swaying in my hand ready. As I caught up to the coyote, the coyote made a quick turn, oh but it couldn’t fool an enraged me. I turned just as quickly with it. I leaped forward as I and the coyote was running. I pulled my hatchet up, ready to swing down in to the running coyote. I swung as hard as I could and went right through the lower back of the coyote. He cried in pain and lost his footing, sliding hard against the ground as was I in back.

I was the first to get up very quickly, the coyote whimpered. It must have injured its foot, there was no escape now. I pulled out the bloody hatchet from its lower back, earning another howl of pain. I took it and swung down in his chest, the same place he bit open rainbow. I swung aimlessly, Up and down the hatchet went...blood splattered across my whole body with each motion. After probably the tenth time I came down on him, he was already dead. He was dead the third time I swung down on him. My body now covered with both the coyotes and my mare-friends blood. The coyote was already dead, but I still was angry. The anger pounded against my chest.

“More, you must keep going, it is not dead yet…” I looked back at the bloody coyote, indeed my rage was right. The coyote was alive, or so I thought. In reality, the coyote had been dead. It had been dead when I first swung at it. Still, my anger towards the beast kicked in as I started to chop the neck off, Each swing, I could here the cracking of the bones in his neck. In the anger-like void, the coyote was suffering. Not only bleeding more than Rainbow had, but suffocating from a lack of oxygen with each swing to its air tube. After the third swing, the whole head came off, yes the coyote head.

It rolled to the side and stopped. “Finally...it is dead.” The voice said inside me.

I looked to myself, this isn’t me? I looked, realizing what I did to the poor coyote. His ribcage was cut in numerous place from my random swinging. His stomach, opened and leaking acids, its whole body was bloody and smelled like a dead body.

“What have I done…” I said to myself. I kneed again down and sadly cried. Every time I looked at my hands, those bloody hands, I knew, I was no better than that coyote.

“There is nothing...there is nothing…” these words kept repeating, I lied right next to the dead mare now, holding her on the unopened side of her chest. As I cried in her fur, the same words came. “There is nothing...there is nothing…” I passed out.

It was a funeral, or so I thought...all of rainbow’s friends had attended, even Gilda the griffon. All were weeping, Derpy and Scootaloo looked like they were gonna die from it. I must be in the church in Ponyville. The priestess, Whiteheart, had just made an entrance. She herself must have been crying, tears were still visible on her face. She knew rainbow as well when she was a filly.

“Attention,” all the crying ponies looked up to the sad Priestess. “This day has all been...very hard for us all, has it not. Well, let me give you all hope...Dainbow Dash will be in a better place now. She was happy for all her life, and she had six great best friends...Twilight, will you speak about your beloved friend Rainbow.”

She, still crying, nodded and rose from one of the seats, she made her way to the podium in the front of the church.

“ *sniff* *sniff* h-hi everypony…” no response unless you call endless sobbing one. “I Want you all to know, Rainbow Dash was an amazing pony.” a tear ran down her face, hitting the podium and making an uneasy sound. “Yes she might have been a bragger and a know-it-all, but she was loyal, brave and something anypony could look for.” As she stepped down off the podium, Whiteheart made herself get up to ask.

“Would any other pony like to talk about this moment.” At first no one responded, then a brave but crying Scootaloo came forward. She walked towards the podium, everypony had their eyes fixated to her.

“Um...I know this might be...a sad time for all of us…” she took a deep breath. “But, I want us to recognize some of the best moments for Rainbow. One time, when Applejack and applebloom were doing a camp trip, I thought it would be a great idea to prove Rainbow Dash I was cool enough for her. Ha, ha...turned out when she did those scary stories at night, I was actually scared. She found me before I almost fell off a cliff.” Everypony gasped of the sound of this. Scootaloo being in a death situation? “Well she saved me from that fall...and you know what she told me,” tears started running from her eyes, she was crying as she was about to talk. “S-she told me…that s-she w-was even s-scared when she was a little f-filly…she...s-she took me under...h-her w-w-wing that night.” she couldn't finish as the great moments of her and Dash came in mind. She stopped and ran out of the church crying.

“there is nothing...there is nothing...there is nothing.” I looked to see Rainbow, just like she was in a coffin. Nopony dared to look, but I saw.

“You left me!” she jumped out of the coffin as she said these words.

Chapter 8: Truth be told

“Anthony! Dinner is ready!” my mom shouted her voice through the closed door. I looked again at the mare I had a crush on, and forever will...forever. I left my room without voice, without saying one single word to her after the handshake.

I opened the door and closed it right after I got out so the mare couldn’t be spotted. “Spaghetti I see,” I said with a dim voice, my words sounded...like nothing, absolutely nothing. My dad just came with his plate of spaghetti, a large sum I might add. I loved spaghetti...dammit Anthony...never ever say that word ever again. I hoped the enjoyment of my moms homemade and delicious cooking like always would cheer me up...i didn’t. My mom started to become concern with the, “no conversation and blank face.”

“Are you alright?” I glanced over to my mom, a look of worry had struck her face. I gave her an unmistakable lie...a smile...and these three words.

“I am fine.”

“You know, I just got done doing this estate sale and boy, do they have some great antiques in that house.” As my dad began the conversation up, my mom washed her fears away with the abrupt speaking of my dad, and my lie.

“Oh yeah, where is this appraisal located at?”

“Up near the beachside, a very beautiful house I should say.” After a load of small talk I couldn’t bear to hear any more of this nonsense. All the thoughts in my head were being scrambled and fried like eggs. I rose from my chair, the fork accidentally hitting the table and interrupting the conversation.

“I’m gonna get some more spaghetti from the kitchen.” I immediately started to walk to the kitchen with my empty plate. As I kept walking my way towards the kitchen, I couldn’t help thinking about the word forever. I started to pile up spaghetti on my plate, I thought I might see if Rainbow would like it. Once I poured the somewhat thick marinara sauce to even up the spaghetti, I made my way back to the circular table, preparing for some more boring small talk. As I sat down with my large sum of my spaghetti, I always get that look from my dad like, “How can you even eat that much.”

I will admit, I was skinny, but only slightly below average. I made up with it in height already being six feet tall. As I began to chow down on my second handful, a sense of noise came across my head. I don’t know what or why, but something...just something.

I looked around Anthony’s room again, glancing at his whats called computer for a second, I think it was still on? I tried to carefully slide myself out of the bed and be sneaky. I could hear his dad talk through the doors...something called an estate sale? Any-who, I took my back hooves first and put them down, I could feel some blood rushing down towards them, I had been sitting in bed for a while now. I felt like I was sturdy enough to be on my own hooves for a bit. I slid my fore-hooves down towards the floor.

As I put weight on my legs again, there was a slight amount of pain, but I pressed on. I took each step one at a time, I felt like Ol Granny Smith now. I sat in the wooden stool Anthony must have used for both drawing and being on his computer. I sat my but down and looked at the weird machinery. I hit one of the many buttons, it made a noise and magically came to light.

“What magic is this?” I said aloud. I looked and accidentally touched this thing in the middle, it moved some weird item on the screen. As I moved it back and forth, I was curious. “So then what does this other button do next to it. As I clicked The button below the pad, it clicked on one of the things on the screen. It made slight noise. I clicked again to stop it, hoping no one heard it. I moved the thing to The bottom of the screen, something then magically showed up...a bar. I looked through it and saw this weird one on the right. I clicked it...and I was surprised more than ever to find out what it was.

As I just finished my second plate of spaghetti, I was thinking about thirds but decided not to do it. I left a little for rainbow to try. I thanked my mom for the dinner, and I walked back into my room. Of course I couldn’t, my dad stopped me and asked me if he wanted to play a game of pig. How could I say no, he usually never likes to play basketball with me?

“Yeah lets play,” I grabbed the ball next to me...a Jordan ball. It was a really nice ball, it was a bit small compared to the others though. As I went outside with my dad opening the porch door, I had another cold chill, a chill like something important is happening.

“I win!” I said as my dad air-balled the three pointer.

“Whatever.”

“Play again?” and as what I always asked, he replied the same way as any other time we had played.

“Nope.” Ugh why not? Every time he does this to me. I began walking back up to the porch, it was getting dark, around seven O’ clock. I opened the living room door to find no one in the living room, and the TV still on. I turned the TV off and made my way to my bedroom.

As I thought, I opened the door to see Rainbow, tired and taking a nap. I took a seat next to her and rubbed her side with my hands. She started to awake, and finally noticing me here.

“Had a good nap Dash?” I asked with a smile on my face. I wanted to completely forget what happened today and move on with the future. She looked at me with sleepy, baggy eyes.

“*yawn* yep, never better.”

“Glad to hear it.” She was able to stand herself up on the bed.

“No wonder I slept so good, your room is the color of the sky.” I just remembered to, the largest and most visible thing in my room and we were discussing the smaller things, ha ha.

“Ha ha yep, it is such a soothing color, and it is the color of your fur.” She looked at herself to see such a similarity between the two. It was practically the same.

“No wonder you picked it.” she said in a sarcastic tone. Was she implying that I was obsessed with her?

“Uh...no, just that was the color my parents picked, I think.” Did I pick it? I can’t remember if I did or not. Still I didn’t even know about Rainbow Dash when I did.

“Fine, still I understand,” I was about to burst like a soda rocket, but I didn’t want to go off on just unknown words. Even though I felt like hot steam was coming out of my ears I remained calm.

“So I was wondering...oh that reminds me,” I opened the door and ran out, I grabbed the plate of spaghetti from the kitchen. I came running back with a small sum of spaghetti on a plate, the fork edge engulfed with the pasta so it didn’t fall. “Do you know what spaghetti is?”

“No, clue.” she said.

“Well here it is.” I held it out to her. She looked at it quizzically.

“So...how do I eat this?”

“So you take the fork,” I grabbed the fork and started to show her a demonstration of eating pasta. “Then, you take the fork, put it in the spaghetti and twist it. Once the fork has grabbed on the spaghetti, you can insert it into your mouth.”

“Thanks for the lesson, but I don’t have fingers like you.”

“Oh yeah…” I did a little laugh and she just looked at me in rudeness. “well if you don’t mind, I could feed it to you…” there was a slight pause, I admit it seemed weird, but what else are you supposed to do, let her starve.

“Fine,” she said with an attitude. I gathered some spaghetti onto the fork and showed it to her.

“Ready?”

“Yep.” I slowly made it go into her mouth, she took a bite of it, with intuition, some of the spaghetti wasn’t fully in her mouth, but she slurped it up. She looked at me in surprise as she chewed the pasta, she took a gulp and looked at me.

“That...is really good. Who made it?”

“I wish I could take the honor, but my mom made it.”

“She can really make this...what you call it?”

“Spaghetti.” I corrected her. “Another bite?”

“Please.” I spooned another handful of spaghetti, this time she had it all in her mouth, she chewed it with awe in her eyes.

“Bye the way...if you don’t go out to eat that often, then what do you eat and how?” With a mouthful of pasta…

“Well I usually go to Fluttershy’s cottage for a meal, sometimes though I cook.” That hit me with shock.

“You...cooking, no offense Rainbow but you don’t seem to be the master-chef.”

“Well, nor do you...but then again my mom was a great cook and so is yours, I guess it is hereditary.”

“Oh that reminds me...i have to make you some pancakes tomorrow morning.”

“Yes please, if your mom can cook this good, then you must be able to cook twice as good.” I smiled at her, she just complimented me.

“So what do you cook?” She gulped down and looked at me again.

“Have you ever heard of, the roy-g-biv?”

“Well thats not a dish, it stands for the seven colors of the rainbow.”

“Yeah I just call it that.” It is a Hay-burger with all on and Mayo, and ketchup, and mustard. But you want to know the secret of it all.” I nodded. “Well, I might have taken some water from Rainbow falls and used it to make the hay-fries...and In the burger are Slices of Zap-apples.”

“Sounds delicious,” I said as my mouth was already starting to salivate. After a while, she was done eating the spaghetti, I took the plate and moved it over to the kitchen sink. The sink was piled up from the bottom and up, filled with dishes, silverware and cups. I placed the plate on the top, being careful it wouldn’t slide, my mom has a Huge amount of dishes to do. Walking back in the room I asked her, “Have you ever had donuts?” She gave me a shake left and right for a no.,“you haven’t lived.” I said as I walked again to the kitchen. I looked on he top of the fridge, there they were, half a dozen glazed Crispy Creme donuts. I took the box in my hands and once again made the way to my room. I jumped onto the bed and opened up the box of donuts.

“These are donuts,” the little bits of sunlight that shined through the blinds surrounded the donuts, making it show off its gorgeous transparent glaze. Rainbow took one in her hooves.

“Ew...they are sticky.”

“Sorry, the glaze is probably melting from your body heat, that and they have been sitting on the top of the refrigerator. I promise you, they may feel sticky, but they taste amazing.” She trusted my word and dove into one with her mouth. This time her wings stiffened because she was head over heels for them. She gobbled the first down.

“Your right, I haven’t lived at all.” I chuckled and took a doughnut for myself. I ate the sticky doughnut, enjoying each bite of the sweet sugary glaze. Once I was done, I licked my fingers off. Just as I was halfway through my doughnut, she took another one.

“Slow down, leave some for the rest of us,” I joked. She giggled, it has been a while since I heard that giggle, oh did I miss it.

I finished my doughnut, and also took another one. “Look at yourself,” We both looked at each other, our mouth's filled with donuts.We both laughed at Rainbow’s little back-pun.

“Hey, I’m just following my favorite mare,” giving her an eyebrow.

“Oh so now I’m the one, I thought it was Aj, or maybe even Lyra.” I didn’t know whether she was still joking, or actually jealous. I stopped my chewing and asked her a serious question.

“rainbow...are you, jealous?” She stopped chewing as well, she took a gulp.

“What!? Me, Jealous...no.” I could she wasn’t fully being honest, her wings didn’t relax since I asked her one of her hooves was moving nervously.

“Look Dash, I admit I love all my drawings, but yours is the first, and will always be the best and my most favorite one.” I took out my phone and showed her the drawing again. “Then again, the Lyra drawing did spark something.” she looked at me with shocking anger.

“You wouldn’t.” she said angrily. “I-I mean...go ahead, I don’t care…”

“Ha ha I’m just teasing with you Rainbow.” She took a breath of relief. “Well it is about eight O’ clock, wanna hit the hay, as Applejack would say.”

“I guess.”

“What do you mean, I guess.”

“I kind of wanted you to finish this…” she pointed over at my laptop. I didn’t get it, I looked at her confused.

“What do you mean?”

“I read the story Anthony, Storm Of Rainbows. Why not finish it? I am sure you have enough information now with all that we did.”

“Yeah okay,” I walked over to my MacBook, sat down and began typing.

I looked at the clock on my computer, eight thirty.

“Well, pretty much got everything that we have done so far.” Rainbow had helped me through the talking scenes, she was good at remembering. I on the other hand had typed over 16 thousand words already. My fingers were cramped from pushing each letter key over and over again. I looked over at the exhausted mare.

“What a day.” she said as she yawned.

“For sure, let me go put on some pajamas.” I took a pair of clothes from my dresser and headed for the bathroom. I exchanged clothes and put on my comfortable PJ’s. I threw the old clothes into the old clothes hamper and opened the bathroom door. I opened my own door and found rainbow practically ready to pass out. I tucked in the half asleep mare, she cuddled up with the sheets. I turned off the lights, and made my way into bed.

“Goodnight Rainbow,” I whispered. She replied with a small ‘goodnight’ as she began to dream as I did.

Do you really think Anthony is the one you want to be with? Oh but you said no to him, remember? I saw myself up on a hill in Sweet Apple Acres. As the sun set, I lay rest on an apple tree. My body felt relaxing, not tense...perfect. As I lied there, guess who showed up...Anthony.

He brought over his pancakes like he suggested, and I saw he made a few adjustments along with it. “Here’s pancakes and hash browns, I added them. I dove into the delicious smelling plate given to me. It all tasted so delicious, heck it was better than AJ’s apple cider.

“Wow this is so delicious.”

“Of course it is, I made it.” I giggled. Once we were finished with our plates he took them and set them aside. “Is there room for two on this apple tree. I nodded and scooted my wings and body over. As he sat close to me, I could feel his warm body heat wrap over my own, it was so...enjoyable. As I watched the sunset next to my favorite human, I couldn’t help but feel something wrap around me. I looked and saw Anthony’s arm around me. I didn’t budge...it felt good. I wanted to get closer and decided to lay on his side. It seemed like he was enjoy it to, well that was dumb to say. I couldn’t help but pause as Celestia shadowed the sun away from the horizon, Luna let out her full moon, bright and beautiful as always. Of course that wasn’t everything that was bright and beautiful. The stars that were closest shined bright as well, they glimmered and twinkled on and off like lights. I felt in heaven, if there was such thing. It was perfect, to perfect. As I thought of actually accepting Anthony’s love...I felt his side disappear. I fell to the grass, wondering where he disappeared to.

“Hello, Anthony?” He took me by surprise as he appeared right in front of me, and laid a small kiss on my cheek. I blushed, I blushed hard. Never have I felt such a great feeling inside of me. I wanted more, a lot more. I reached for him again, only this time to meet him lip to lip. As I kissed his gently lips for the first time, my mind practically melted away as feelings began to burst through my thinking process. His lips were so soft, warm, tasty? I dove in deeper, allowing our mouths now to connect. As our tongues danced around each others mouths, we had to break the kiss. I looked up to his hazel eyes, gorgeous hazel eyes. As I moved in for another passionate kiss with the man, I came across nothing. I opened my eyes to see he was gone.

All of the sudden I started to hear some demonic laughter, like King Sombra’s deep creepy voice along with the weird voice of discord. I looked around to see where it was coming, nothing around me but the apple trees. Anthony then appeared, but different. His eyes were completely replaced with just blackness, and he had a devilish grin with him.

“Aww...does Dashie want another kiss…WELL TO BAD!” he yelled at me. He showed hatred, deep hatred. “For a whole year, all I have been thinking about is you Rainbow...you! And to think I could actually have my dream come true,” he turned more innocent, his eyes returning to normal. I was about to say something until the darkness took over again, “But to find out…” his eyes widened and showed a angry face, he then pointed at me. “You rejected my love...my love!”

“But I,” I was interrupted by the cursed Anthony.

“No buts...you know your true feelings missy! And looks like you chose the wrong path…” he then disappeared. My mind quickly raced. I passed out.

I awoke to...looking up in the sky. I couldn’t move my body, even though I looked perfectly fine. Wait a second, I was in the ground...oh no. “I think...i think I am being buried!” I shouted to myself

“Help! Somepony help me!”

“They can’t hear you Rainbow.” The voice of Anthony came in my head.

“Why are you doing this to me!?”

“I’m not doing anything, it is you who chose this fate! It is you will die because of your own wrong doings! You deserve to die rainbow...i should have left you to the coyotes a long time ago.” my heart sank from hearing that, a tear came to my eye, then another. I saw Anthony, now on top of me. He raised his hand and appeared, the hatchet he used to kill the coyotes with, Blood still partially wet on the blade. He smiled at me.

“Well…i did the right thing, didn’t I?” He swung the axe right towards me forehead

“NOOOOOOOOO!”

Chapter 9: Huh?

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Chapter 10: Another day of no parents

I awakened, fully refreshed and with a large supply of energy. Rainbow and I were still cuddling together. I just wanted it to stay like this forever. Just as I thought, I looked and found a smile on Dash’s face, I smiled as well. I just rested there, for probably the longest time I have ever just lied down somewhere without doing anything. Life has ups and downs, a wise man once said...he was right for sure. Well here came the downshttp://static.fimfiction.net/images/interactive_pony/dash/trotcycle_rainbow_left.gif as Rainbow Dash started to awaken from her dreary sleep. I acted again, awoken by her and let go.

We both yawned at first then stretched our feet, hooves, arms and wings.

“How’d you sleep?” Rainbow asked.

“Perfect,” I replied in awe. I pulled out my phone and I looked at the time.

“Holy shit! Nine thirty, wow we have been getting some sleep, I would have sworn my parents would have woken me for breakfast.”

“Maybe because you were to busy sleeping.” she said in a sly tone. Is she implying...never mind. Me still in my pajamas, got out of bed and opened the door. Huh? Silence...complete silence? That’s odd. I looked around in the living room.

“Whats up?” rainbow asked me.

“Odd...my parents seem to be not in the house.” I looked around in the kitchen, on the refrigerator was a note. It said:

Dear Anthony, we will be gone by the time you wake up, I didn’t want to wake you. Anyways, dad and I have work to do, we left you some eggo waffles in the fridge that you can microwave and we will be back after one. Bye.

-Mom

“YES!” I shouted loud, not caring how much noise I made jumping up and down. I ran to the bedroom, jumped on it and held rainbow in my arms with excitement on her face.

“guesswhatguesswhatguesswhat!”

“What!” she replied annoyingly and intrigued.

“We...have the whole time till one together alone!” I shouted merrily. She didn’t take long to comprehend the words.

“YAY!” she shouted. “I can’t believe we can be alone again, last time was great, I can’t wait for this time because I know it will be e-pic!”

“So you want to have breakfast together?” I asked excitedly.

“Yes yes and yes!” she squealed. I went over to the kitchen and looked in the fridge. I saw the goo waffles mom was talking about. “Rainbow and I are not having this shit,” I then cloed the fridge and went to my moms recipe book. I might talk to myself when I am in the kitchen mood ha ha. “Okay let’s see...aha! There they are, banana pancakes, yummy. I saw that I had all the ingredients to make the batter. “Perfect!” Now where the dumb flour.

“Under here I’m guessing?” I looked over to see Rainbow standing before my eyes.

“Woah you can stand again, you look great,” I said in awe.

“Stop flattering and make me some pancakes, I am hungry.”

“Mind helping me make some?”

“Don’t mind at all.” And at that, the best cooking team you will ever see has just been invited to existence. I told her to grab the ingredients for the batter while I read it to her and also looked for fruits to add in other than bananas, if we have them anyways. I didn’t know if we had bananas, oh well! Rainbow quickly gathered the materials needed to make the batter. I grabbed some fruit not limited to, raspberries, blueberries, and chocolate chips, no bananas *sad face*.

“I got two bowls out...one to mix the wet ingredients, then the dry. I added the wet ingredient all in, and then the dry ones. I then finally added them together and mixed, with Dash’s mixing expertise skills of course. Finally it looked perfectly mixed. Rainbow asked me if we should keep mixing because of the lumps, I said that they would dissipate once you put them on the pan. Soon I poured the batter on and added the fruit. I flipped them once they were done on each side. By the time you said, pancakes, well...there was pancakes. All well stacked. I walked over to the table, pancakes in one hand, two plates in the other. I laid down the pancakes in front of Dash who was already sitting at the table. Her mouth watered as I set the delicious light and fluffy pancakes down. I then put the two plates down. I went back to the kitchen to grab the maple syrup.

“Whats that?” she asked as she pointed to the bottle of Massachusetts Maple syrup I got when I went down just before Rainbow came into my life.

“Its called maple syrup, now you might think it is weird because it’s actually sap from a maple tree.

“And why would you want tree sap on your delicious pancakes?”

“Just try it,” I said reassuringly. Since Rainbow couldn’t help herself or feed herself with hooves I helped her with it all. I put two pancakes on both our plates, I then cut them with a knife in half and barely separated them. I then poured the sticky sap all over the pancakes, making sure I didn’t use a lot though to upset the balance. She looked grossed out at first, but I was giving her the ‘come on’ by using my eyebrows and head up. I took a fork and knife and cut a piece off, I moved it into a pool of syrup that had already formed. Once dipped, I showed it to Rainbow. She opened her mouth accordingly and took a bite. At first she gave me the, ‘did you just fucking poison me!’ to the ‘Holy shit that's great!’

“Well…”

“can you just feed me more now, this is delicious, mmm and with the fruits bursting flavor into your mouth like that, unbelievable!”

“Glad your happy.” I said with a smile. Once rainbow was done with her two pancakes, I was about to have my own when she asked for two more. “Wow Rainbow, the things I have to do for you.” I said sarcastically. She was just wiggling in the seat excitedly waiting for more, and clearly ignoring what I said as I sat two more pancakes on her plate. I fed them to her again and she loved it again. I tried to forget the syrup but she had caught me and insisted on putting it on. After what felt like forever, Rainbow was done with those two pancakes.

Having a large smile on my face, I could tell that was the sign for me to finally eat mine. Just as I picked up my delicious fluffy pancakes, “Um...could I have, some more?”

“Wait what?! No I made four for you and four for me, no more, I don’t want you getting a belly ache because of my amazing cooking.”

“It would of been worth it…” she frowned. I, of course being generous to a mare, gave a pancake to her.

“You owe me.”

“Aww thanks…” she snarked at me. The living room was quiet except for the sounds of pancakes being thrown into our mouthes. I was finished with my three pancakes before Rainbow finished her one. Must be saving the flavor by eating it slowly ha ha.

“That was a great breakfast don’t you agree?” the reply I got was her muffled voice of agreement while she scuffled down the last piece of her pancake. I chuckled as she gobbled the last piece down comparing when she was savoring it before-hoof. Oh no I’m using Equestrian language ah!

“So what do you want to do?” I asked.

"I dunno, how am i supposed to know when your world is totally different?" she said annoyingly.

"Damn, just asking, ever heard of video games?" I asked. She looked at me curiously, clearly not knowing what that was.

"nope." she replied.

"Wow you poor ponies," i said laughing. "Wanna see?" she gave me a nod and I got up from the table. As i sat down on the couch on the left side, she came and sat down next to me. She moved in closer to me as she sat down, it felt really awkward but who am I to say I don't love her! Actually, it kinda is cramped. "Rainbow, think you could stop squishing me so much?" she looked at herself and saw how close she got to me, she lightly blushed in embarrassment.

"S-sorry," she replied stuttering. Me being the teaser.

"You're cute when you stutter," the heat in her cheeks just grew more and more with each word.

"Sh-shut up!" she managed to sling out of her mouth.

"Still doing it," I tease her. She couldn't take much more as the sudden movement towards my body. She lifted my shirt and tickled me with her hooves. I thought her hooves would be hard, but really they were really soft, and ticklish. As the fur of her hooves started to brush up against my chest in an uncomfortable way, i couldn't help myself but just giggle under my breath from the touch. As she laid her hooves on my side, slowly moving the up to my armpits. The closer she made my way to my armpits, the more my giggling would get louder from my mouth. She noticed this and went now straight to my armpits. I couldn't help it, i laughed hysterically.

"S-stop haha, not c-cool haha!" i tried to yell out while I laughed to death from all the tickling?

"Who's the stutterer now?" she laughed back at me.

"Okay okay, I w-will do whatever you want, j-just stop haha!" she finally stopped, and looked at me odd, then came a smile on her face. "Anything?" she said oddly. Oh shit what have i done! what is she thinking in that small head of hers, haha just kidding!

"Um...yeah..." "

Well," she begun to say with a smirk forming on her face. "How about...you have to rub my wings," i jumped randomly at this.

"Okay..." I was going for her wings before she gave me a playful slap.

"Can we do it outside, there is more room."

"Yeah okay with me." I was about to pick her up before i remembered she could walk, dumb me.

"Um I can walk dummy," she said teasing me. I just gave her a annoyed but funny straight face and walked to the door. I opened it for her. "Mares first," I say being a gentleman. She gave me just a playful "No" face and walked through without another word. I followed her and closed the door quite hard, the house almost shook. Of course the pegasus didn't noticed the door slam or the loud noise, she wanted to get back outside to the beauty of it all...or was that the real thing she is talking about? As the sun hit my face, it warmed my body to a delight. That and the breeze making it a equilibrium of temperature. Rainbow feeling the same pleasure, her fur stood slightly on end and her wings got a bit stiffer. I walked down with Rainbow along the stairs, making sure she wouldn't fall and I could be there if she did. We sat in a relatively private spot, but the country is that anyways is it not?

"So you ready?"

"Um sure," is all I could muster out of my mouth, still confused why she wants me to massage her wings. She laid herself down on the green grass and spread her wings, her gorgeous wings. So muscular and beautifully colored, her wings were quite big compared to her body, but i guess they have to. I couldn't help but shiver when i first laid hands on her furry wings. I also noticed her shiver from the touch, I should have guessed their wings were sensitive. As I moved my hands up and down her left wing, i couldn't help but notice Rainbow's face. It went from astonishment to pleasure in ten seconds flat...see what i did there. The more i dug my fingers through her fur and moved up and down slowly, the more i could tell she was enjoying this. Soon i could feel her skin from beneath and when i touched it I heard a soft moan, it was really quiet but i could hear it.

"Aren't you enjoying yourself." I said with a smirk on my face. She instantly started to blush a cherry red while she was still in pleasure mode. It took her a while to respond to my question, she was clearly enjoying this.

"Not like you aren't liking it?" she responded back. I started to blush as well, feeling the awkwardness intensify. "Yeah, I like touching your body," wow that sounded wrong.

"Pervert!" she said giggling. Ok the funs over now haha! Right after she said that, I took my hands and tickled her exposed belly. She went from pleasure to intense laughter. Her hooves kicking in and out.

"This is what you get for calling me a pervert." I said smirking. "Haha, hey stop...haha!" she tried saying as I tickled her.

"Take it back." I told her smiling.

"Mmm no!" she replied. I stopped for a second before finding myself even more wanting to tickle her harder. I took one hand and tickled her left side and the other one her belly now. She was laughing even harder than before if that was possible. "Stop haha, just admit it to me!" she replied laughing.

"I am not!" I said defensively, still tickling the daylights out of her.

"Times up!" she shouted and she used her front hooves, grabbed me and took me by surprise. She rotated me and now I was on the ground, pinned down by her. I couldn't recover in time because I was laughing so hard from the events occurring, I was still laughing as she pinned me down. As I opened my eyes from all the laughing, she looked at me with joyful eyes as well. We just stared at each other, eye to eye and enjoying this perfect moment. I tried to get myself up but she pushed me back down.

"Wait up, can't you enjoy this moment at all?"

"Well i know what i can do."

As Anthony said those words he took his hands and started to hold my cheek. I started to lightly blush from the warm feeling against them, the blush making it intensify. "Would i do to feel your lips," he said. His words hit my heart, deeply. Oh no, these feelings are coming back...i know Rainbow, he still has feelings for you, he always will. Just do it Rainbow, do it once. I slowly lowered my lips to his, clearly not knowing how to do this. Once Anthony figured out what I was doing, he met me halfway. The first touch of his lips was like a shock of pleasure going through my head. I don't even know how to describe such these good feelings, so soft, moist, tasty? After remembering these words, a bad thought came into my head...

Did she just...is she...kissing me? Oh my god her lips are so tender, they taste so sweet. I never thought this would be happening at all. I tried putting my hand around her neck, trying to have it so we could feel every inch of each others mouths. But for some reason...she just broke the kiss. I opened my eyes to see her, now her side facing me. She looked liked she was in pain, how?

"I am sorry i even asked, i know you don't have..."

"Shut up!" she responded angrily. Woah that was unexpected. I did what i was told and shut my trap. It looked like she was going through a relapse of some sort. I couldn't hold my breath any longer.

"Whats wrong Dash?"

"Everything!" she said, now falling limp on the grass, feeling depressed. "I don't know Anthony, I don't know! Just, give me time to think."

"Ok." was all that came out of my mouth. I wanted to really find out what was happening but if she doesn't want it to be my business, that's fine with me.

Chapter 11: Revelations

There was only awkward silence between the both of us now, from being happy to being depressed did Rainbow turn to. Of course i was the one to break it, i mean i had to, this was weird, and i wanted to have fun with her, not make her depressed.

"Want to go back in?" i asked, hoping to get something out of her.

"Yeah, i think all the fresh air is getting to my head now anyways." her and I both walked back up the stairs on separate sides. I opened the door for her as well just like last time. Once we got back into the nice cold air again, we both went back into my room. I thought going back in would clear the silence, but it just pro lengthened it.

"I'm sorry." we both said in unison. We both giggled and popped both of ourselves onto the bed.

"What am I gonna do with you?" i said sarcastically.

"I dunno," she responded. "What do you want to do?"

"Keep you forever." i said, not even feeling embarrassed for saying that. Rainbow blushed when hearing that.

"Come on, you don't want a mare like me." she replied.

"Phft, i can see beautiful, athletic and amazing rolled into one person, and that is you," I said complimenting her. Her blush intensified from the last comment i said.

"Stop it! you're making me blush."

"You are cute when you blush you know," i said winking.

"n-no i'm n-not."

"And the stuttering, it turns me on." The color of her cheeks was now a complete opposite of the color light blue. "You know we are already on the bed..."

"Okay, really?" she said.

"Haha, your body says otherwise." indeed i was right. Her wings were stiff and her cheeks were crimson red. "Im just kidding anyways, to bad though," I started to become depressed. Making out with Dash would be so romantic, i don't even think i could describe it. Funny how quickly Rainbow changed the subject though.

“Hey, you still never showed me the video games? Is that how you call them?”

“Oh yeah, you still wanna see?” she gave me a nodding yes, and we both proceeded to the couch again.

“Now no squishing me like last time,” I said as I sat myself down on the corner of the couch. Rainbow giggling, sat next to me like last time, but not to the point of her on top of me. Lol did I just say that?

“So which game, Assassins creed 3 or black ops.” As I turned on the Playstation three by hitting the button on the remote.

“How about...Assassins creed,” she answered.

“Good choice,” I replied. Thankfully the disc was already in there so I didn’t have to get up and upset Rainbow. Soon I opened the game and I was in New york, I was pretty powerful, having completed everything and gotten this epic iron war club.

“Woah,” was the only words she could muster when she saw the graphics. As I began to walk around with my club in hand, I accidentally bumped into one of the redcoats. He gave me a push away, okay not happening. I ran right back up to the guy, took my club, tripped him and swung at his head when he fell flat on the stoney ground. As rainbow saw the blood fly and the amazing moves come from the player I was controlling, she instantly went to curiosity. Seeing every move they had in the game was like candy for her.

“I call this one the Rainbow,” I say. My guy then uses his right foot and dead legs one of the redcoats to his knees, slouching. He then proceeds to completely straiten his back with the war club. And to think he would just swing the club, he put it away and used his hands and broke the redcoats neck.

“Glad you have good taste to use my name like that.”

“Only the best for you,” I coo at her. I swear she got closer to me, feeling a little bit hotter than before, but probably my imagination. The game can do those things. We continued for a while actually, going through each move with different weapons, from hidden blades to tomahawks.

“What a cool game,” she said with wonder in her voice.

“Duh that's why I play it.” I say joking. She then pushes me playfully.

“Watch it, these hooves might be coming to places you are ticklish at.” the only response from her was a blush, a pretty well summed blush. I was about to reply with something to tease her, but I heard a certain similar noise I had heard before.

“Damn, my parents are back.” I went over and checked the windows, indeed it was them. Why can’t they just go away for like forever! Rainbow walked over to my bedroom and got on top of the bed. I gave her a waving goodbye for now and closed the door. As I began to sit on the couch, flipping on whatever good thing was on, I thought about Rainbow. Each flip of the channel made me think differently about. Does she even like you? As a friend Maybe? Does she not like guys anymore at all? Your thoughts get interrupted by the kitchen door opening.

“Hey,” I said, sounding like it Had been boring, really it was the complete opposite. Why are girls, and mares so complicated.

Hey Anthony, we are back.”

“Oh yeah, you never mentioned where you went, so where?”

“Work, and we also had the chance to pick up some lunch.” they said, holding a take-out bag. I perked up some when I heard take-out, even though moms food is quite delicious, it is nice to have a change of food.

“What did you get?”

“Dustins.” my dad replied, now entering the door. Yes! I love Dustins, especially when…

“Did you get the sliced pork Luncheon?”

“Yep.” Yes! The best one right there. I immediately get up from the couch and go to the Table, sitting my butt down quick and waiting there for my meal to be served to me. My, being me, my dad was rolling his eyes and put the meal that was stored in a styrofoam box down on the table. I chomped that thing down so fast, my parents were only halfway done with theirs. Even though I seemed happy, and was eating happy, I didn’t feel that happy, and my mom caught that again.

“So how was the Eggo waffles?” she asked. I never even ate that shit haha.

“They were ok, but I think it would be better if you just let me make pancakes next time.” true words.

“We can’t give you such a hard responsibility already can we? Ugh parents, can they understand I am.

“Whatever,” was the only thing I could come up with, it works with Rainbow it can work for me. Other than the occasional small talk, I actually did ask questions about their day, hoping not to cause to much suspicion. These days I have had, lots of mixed emotions, lots. My slice pork was gobbled up quick, because I love the sweet sauce and the fries are good with it all.

As I finished and walked to the kitchen and put my plate into the kitchen sink, I was already beginning to have those same questions pop up in my head like before. Why do I even think these thoughts could be related with her anyways? As I was about to open the door to my room, an odd sound came from behind the closed door. I opened it and shut it, keeping my eyes inside my room, using pure skill to open and close it quickly. And there it was, I never thought she would have done it, but…she did. I never thought she would be like this...but she is.

Rainbow...was sitting on my bed on her side and with a hoof holding her head, and giving me those eyes. Just like the picture I drew. I had no words as I looked before in jaw drop moment at the gorgeous mare. If she couldn’t have looked any better, it was now. Her rainbow mane and tail shined. She was well, like a blaze of beauty. Her eyes showing fun, happiness, well being. Her wings tucked in gently, so perfect in fact, I could have had an explosion just looking at how her feathers curled. Just think how good it would feel to being pressed against that body!
No, no Anthony. She is not doing it on purpose…she is just like that right? Indeed my mind was correct, she was just sitting like that probably cause it was comfortable and she was looking at one of the posters I had. My room is always filled with things to keep you occupied for a while. Every now and then I can find something.

“Hey,” I said, regaining myself from her beauty. Damn Celestia, have to make her so pretty it paralyzes me. For a couple of seconds, it seemed like she didn’t noticed me, As I took a step with my Jays…

“Oh hey, sorry Ant, just looking at the posters on your wall here.”

“Yeah, got a whole bunch of cool ones, you could take one home with you if you want.”

“Oh yeah, about that subject…” She now changing her position to a more manner-able one, as she pawed my bed sheets, I was starting to worry.

“What is it?” I ask, not liking already how this is starting. “tell me.”

“Well...I, found a way home.” Oh that...on the inside, that fake smile and somewhat happiness on the inside just killed itself. I didn’t even want her to see me upset again so I just did what every person should do if you are friends.

“Good for you Dash, it will be nice to see your friends again.” I say truthfully.

Chapter 12: Home it is

“So how are you gonna get home?” I ask, being genuinely curious.

“Well now that I have my wings, I need...what do you call it.” she looked around my room, she seemed like she couldn’t describe the something she was talking about. “Do you remember when I destroyed the whole town when I tried doing a double Rainboom?”

“Yeah, but I don’t see how that relates.”

“Whats that thing called, that was the thing I used to make myself faster.”

“Oh you mean the potion.”

“Yeah that. I am going to have to drink that potion and do almost the same thing I did to get out of ponyville into another world.”

“Wait wait wait...did you come to this world when you drank that potion and fell in the storm?” She was silent for a while, clearly not wanting to tell her answer.

“Maybe…”

“Maybe? I think so, but one question. How are you going to replicate it and make sure you will not blow up my world in the process?”

“Good question and I have learned how to use the potion, when I meant maybe, it was actually the next day after that...you see when pinkie sucked me back up, twilight insisted on me learning the potions effects, ingredients stuff like that. We did another test and now I am here.”

“Wow, so you...actually learned?” I said jokingly.

“Ha ha very funny Anthony.” she said sarcastically. I chuckled, knowing she hates when I do that stuff. “She had me learn it the same way how I fly, I remember everything when I fly by.”

“That’s what makes you so special,” I say sappily. She blushed from the sweet words slowly coming out of my mouth, even though I had gotten used to talking like this around her, still felt weird...will It always?

“Stop making me feel so bad leaving this place.”

“Sorry, just leave me forever…” when I had actually said that my room went quiet. Only the fan that was now on was the only noise, swishing in a clockwise direction, cooling the room.

“Sorry,” I said, finally breaking the silence.

“For what? I am the one that is going to leave you forever, I should be sorry.”

“How about we don’t think about it for now, actually...we do. Look Rainbow, you have six best friends worried to death on the other side of this crummy universe, leave and be with them, I will be fine. It is just going to be the same as it was before I met you.” Rainbow Dash started to form tears in her eyes, my words clearly hitting her hard. I love her, I wish it didn’t have to be like this…

“Ok,” she managed to say before a tear started to run from her beautiful reddish violet eyes.

“Don’t cry Rainbow, I hate when you do that, don’t cry for me...i thought you didn’t love me anyway,” I say coldly, clearly shots being backfired from that. Now I am getting depressed Rainbow…

“S-sorry.” she manages to pull herself up. “ the things I will be needing is, one drop of a green lemon,a drop of water, something called poke berry, about thirty drops of apple vinegar and a piece of my hair.”

“I think we have all of those Dash, whenever you want to leave you can.”

“I will leave in the morning, I want to sleep with you one more night.” those words just shattered my heart into tiny unglued pieces that couldn't be put together again.

“Oh my god, why does this hurt so much,” I say softly. My eyes beginning to water.

“Its because I mean a lot to you isn’t it,” she replies, her eyes watering from the scene of my own. I nodded my head before pulling in Dash for a hug. She yelped in surprise but quickly calmed down after she figured what I was doing. I needed her, I need her for my life...and now that piece of my life...my heart is now gone.

*Knock knock* “Anthony! Dinner!”

“I’ll be there soon,” I say mildly depressed. I looked back at Dash, the so ever beautiful mare that will be leaving my life. I gave her a soft kiss on her forehead, making us both feel better.

“I’ll be back soon, ok…”

“Ok,” she replied with a depressed demeanor. I opened the door and closed it quickly and softly like always. I looked at the dinner table and saw one of my favorite meals, 1905 salad and steak with hash browns. Well at least one thing went ok and that's dinner. I guess this is a farewell Rainbow dinner party ha...ha…

I sat myself down, waiting for my parents so I can start to dig in the meal. Once my parents sat down I took a piece of steak and a whole bunch of salad. It took me a while to actually eat my food though, all the things that has gone on this week alone makes me ponder.

“You actually gonna eat that?” my dad asks.

“Huh, oh yeah.” I replied back.

“Whats wrong now,” my mom asked. They always have to burst into my life huh.

“What if you love this person a lot, but you find out they are leaving forever,” I asked a serious question, and there was a huge silence. My mom was kind of dumbfounded and so was my dad, but both looked at me.

“You have to go through it, there are plenty of fish in the sea.” My dad explained quickly.

“I know I know, but this person, meant the world to me.” More silence.

“Anthony, even though you might never see them again, they will always be in here.” She pointed to my heart. Ugh how cliche.

“yeah I guess,” I say still unhappy. I started to eat my meal; after that little depressing conversation, there was no more. I finished my dinner and put my plate in the sink.

“Ice cream?” my mom asks opening the freezer.

“No thanks, I don’t think I deserve it…” I answer flatly. I then walked to my room, completely done with. I opened the door slowly and sadly, then finally closing it. Rainbow looked like she was crying, her eyes bloodshot and a river flowing from her eyes down to her chin.

Rainbow…” I say, feeling sad.

“I can’t help it, I can’t help but cry.” she said still sobbing her way through her own sentence. “Can we do one thing though.”

“Anything for you,” I say.

“Can we finish that story, Storm of Rainbows.”

“Yeah...let’s finish it.”

It took us a while, most of the night actually. But we had finished it, well until Rainbow leaves, I was going to write that once she is gone. I yawn earning a sense of some type of accomplishment.

“Alright, and save...imma put my Pj’s on.” I walked out of the door to the bathroom and took my Pj’s and put them on. I went back in the room seeing Rainbow, not tired at all.

‘Can we stay up, I mean like for a little longer. I don’t want to end the night...since its the last.”

“Ok Dash, but just for like an hour or two, its already eleven at night.” I sat down with her on the bed, her next to me. “Want to play a game?”

“Yeah lets play truth or dare, me and my friends always play that on sleepovers.”

“Okay…” not really liking truth or dare. “You go first and ask me then,” I say wanting to get it over with.

“Truth or dare?”

“mm...truth.”

“Is it true...that I am awesome?” she said. Are you kidding me Rainbow! Stroking your own ego again.

“Yep, completely,” she beamed from my words. “Truth or dare?”

“Um...truth.”

“Is it true...you cried for cider?” holding back my laughter.

“Oh my gosh really...ugh yes I might have...a lot.” I burst out with immense laughter, trying to keep my voice down though so I wouldn’t wake anyone.

“Truth or dare?”

“Dare, but only if you do my dare.”

“Deal.” Okay...I dare you to...draw me again really pretty like you did before and give me a copy.” I blushed lightly from her words.

“Definitely liking that deal.” I say.

“Oh and can you print out your story, I am sure everyone at home is going to love it.”

“Yeah for sure.”

“Okay your turn Ant.”

“Um...i dare you to…” I thought for a hard second, then a great thing came to my head. “Do that thing when you were with twilight, swinging in the stool.” I got off the bed and moved the stool away from the tables.

“Really? Ok fine. But only for you.”

“She got on the stool, at first she didn’t start to, but then she started to sway, acting just like she did before-hoof. Once she did it for a while she got of the stool and sat back on my bed. I joined her naturally.

“Why did you make me do that?” she asked, not knowing why such a weird thing.

“Because its like one of the things that I love about you, your attitude is so perfect. And you look so cute when you do that.” I tell her. She blushed intensely from the last eight words.

“So...one more dare?”

“Alright, for both of us.”

“I dare you…” before she could say anything, she paused for a second and started to blush. Oh god what is it.

“I dare you to, kiss me.” My jaw was about to drop open but I kept my cool...barely.

“Um what now?” Trying to comprehend her words. Like really did she just say that?

“To kiss me.”

“Okay…” saying nervously. I moved in closer to her, already feeling awkward enough as it is. I started to move in slowly towards her cheeks. I gave her a tender, nice touching kiss. My contact with her cheeks became to get warm.

“No silly, on the lips.” oh wow really.

“Are you sure?”

“Just do it, its a dare.”

“Okay…” still feeling hesitant. As I moved towards her very intriguing lips, she instantly moved in. Her lips hit contact with my own very roughly, still I loved it. It is really impossible to really describe to you reader how this feels, but lips do feel amazing. She instinctively moved her tongue, not wanting war I just allowed it. Her tongue sliding all along my teeth, my gums, my whole mouth...incredible. After a long kiss, we finally had to break the kiss cause of our lack of oxygen.

“Wow…” is all I could say, heavily panting from all the heat and intensity of what just happened. Rainbow just fell backward, completely struck by how mystifyingly great that was. Her eyes closed, breathing heavily from the great kiss we had shared.

“You, okay,” still being barely able to speak. She didn’t reply. I laid myself down next to her, looking at her closed eyes. Huh, is she...not breathing?

“Rainbow?” Nothing…

“Rainbow?!” still nothing, I was getting worried, what did I do! “Rainbow stop fooling around!” I shouted at her, I tried moving her, but the same result, nothing. I felt her hooves, her side of the neck for a pulse. There was no pulse, her body was cold, like it just went out like a flame.

“no...no no NO!” I shook her forcefully, still to no prevail. I did this for countless minutes, and nothing had happened, she just died on me, like a poison given to her by my love, my love! This isn’t Romeo and Juliet! At least let her live, she was going to go home, meet her friends, have a life.

And so now I lie on my bed, crying in her fur, pinching myself saying it was all a nightmare, but it wasn’t.

Chapter 13: I face...Love?

Author's Note

*This is all Rainbow Dash's POV*

Chapter 13: I face...Love?

All I remember is touching Anthony’s warm lips for the second time, how amazing. Why couldn’t I have said, “I love you Anthony,” those words are so hard to say. You might have never had a girlfriend or boyfriend, maybe you did and you said that you love them. But is that what love really is, I myself have never come in terms with love, it seems so, unrealistic...so pessimistic.My eyes went black as I thought of saying those four words to him.

I slowly opened my eyes, I was in complete darkness, I couldn’t see anything. I looked to the right and notice a crack of light coming a bit above me. Was I in something? I used my hooves that I couldn’t see and kick upward. Whatever I bucked was sent flying upward. The light poured into the opening I made. I covered my eyes with my fore-hooves, clearly not used to the light level of whatever it was I am at. As I slowly opened my eyes and have them to adjust to the new rays of light bursting through, I saw exactly where I was. I looked in horror at the sight I was in. I was in a coffin, the same one Anthony put me in. As I got up, I jumped out of the coffin, and I was met to a more horrible sight. Anthony, the bad Anthony was digging another hole. I could make out what he was saying to himself.

“All these damn ponies, all deciding in love, never thought this one would be one to.” He kept digging...whatever grave for whatever pony. “Ha, I think the only one thats never gonna get someone is Pinkie, well then again Flutters is pretty shy.”

“Okay why don’t you shut up!” I shouted, finally hearing enough of this. “Don’t talk about my friends like that. Anthony just dropped the shovel and started to laugh devilishly.

“Wait...you still haven’t figured it out yet, have’t you?” Still chuckling, not caring about the grave and the shovel that now dropped in it.

“What are you talking about maniac?” I said, getting worried.

“What am I talking about? You are joking right? You think I like doing this job? Well actually let me rephrase that...if you ponies weren’t so stuck up about love I wouldn’t have to burry it. Can’t you just say yes or no, more like no please.” He said snickering.

“So wait, all this time, you have been keeping me away from the feeling of love?” He started to clap.

“You finally understand it huh, took you long enough...but then again you aren’t the brightest of the six.”

“Well I still don’t understand why hold me back?” he instantly stopped clapping.

“never mind what I said, you are as dumb as Big Mac, just saying Eeyup all the time. I’m not holding you back, All of this,” he showed his hands to the world around me created. Lighted Apple orchard, all the apples now shriveled and the trees slowly loosing their leaves as some had already fallen. “This is your world, not mine. I am not no devil, I am not no black angel, or savior, I am you. You wanted to happen like this, the instant you broke his heart this happened, am I right!” Shouting at me.

“y-yes,”

“Y-y, just stop! Are you dumb! You did this to yourself, not my fault, I just came to finish the job and keep your luvy-duvy emotions in check for your benefit.”

“Whats so bad about love?” I ask.

“Ha don’t look at me, you are the one that is having trouble, isn’t it? But if I have to say from being in this decrypt place long enough, I have thought about it. To me, love is just pointless, it gets in the way from other emotions, more important ones, like your happiness. Oh and don’t forget if you get rejected for love, I wonder how Anthony felt for that huh now?” before I could even respond…

“Like shit! Yeah and its your fault, your fault! Love complicates life, makes your life harder, if love was eradicated like a plague, this wouldn’t happen. All these bad emotions getting in the way!”

“But you are wrong to…” he looked at me with interest. “I might have been wrong about love, I admit that. But I can see it can make people happy to, more happy than they are alone, how does it feel like to be alone?”

“Yeah pretty sucky,” he admits.

“Not only that, but without love, where do you think unique fillies come from?”

“Oh that…”

“And you know what, I think I really do love Anthony, he is a part of my life. And I want him to be with me for it all.” The other Anthony just looked in disgust, like a changeling seeing so much love.

“Well well well, to bad you couldn’t have done that before, are you even sure that you really love him?”

“Yes I know now,”

“Hm...well to bad, you know why? Cause I can’t let you break free from your bonds.” All the sudden, Anthony opened his right hand and magically came a scythe. One so gruesome looking, still having dried blood from probably another pony or human in the same dilemma. “You see, once you made that choice, you can’t go back, most of the time when you ask for that same person that person just says no like you had to them, which makes my work a lot easier, but...there are some exceptions.” I looked in horror as Anthony came towards me floating, the scythe laying on his back. Once he got close enough, he took a swing at me. Thankfully, I fully dodged the whole blade. Anthony was to fast though.

“You know, I should have killed you before hand.” I gave a dumbfound expression.

“Oh yes, if you die here, you die in the real world, your heart will burst. All those times I tried, I just sent your emotions back in check, but now, you've grown to annoying for me to handle,” he swung once more, again I dodged his swing, but I noticed when I landed I was on the edge of where my grave is, I slipped from the edge as my back hooves gave. I fell back first into the grave pit, landing with a hard thud. As I look up, there he was. Looking over me with pity, shaking his head sideways.

“Wow, I never really liked this job you know, killing ponies emotions isn’t a fun job.” He then dissipated the scythe, probably because it was to big to swing down in the pit. Then came the axe, that Anthony used in his one dream, the one this Anthony used to keep my emotions back already.

“Haha how ironic I have to use this weapon, the first to begin, the first to stop. Like Sweetie Bell says, why does life have to be so ironic?” And at that, he swung the ax down towards my undoable body. It seemed like the ax swung in slow motion, like the end of my life. Before the blade could touch my body, a force stopped it. Another blade? I look left of the edge of the pit, and there is...Anthony? Wait now there are two of them? Confusing. The Anthony that stopped the blade took his foot and kicked the other Anthony flying away from me. He showed his hand to me, I grabbed it with my hoof and he helped me out. The item that stopped the ax was a sword, almost like a rapier but looking a lot more sharp. Now standing beside the good Anthony, we both looked over to the other Anthony, still winded from the kick to his chest.

“Enough messing around with my dash you dumb bitch. I’m hear to end your misery on my Dash.” Those words really hit my heart. He is so sweet isn’t he. Anthony’s hair was like it was levitating, a magical whitish aurora around his body, his body also seemed more muscular, stronger.

“You, defeat me? I have survived the ages inside your little girlfriend and others you dumb dumb.” His scythe then reappeared, only now his body and his weapon was glowing a blackish glow. The trees around him were dying, it seemed like everything around him was wilting and tearing to death.

“Rainbow I need your help to fight yourself here, I cannot kill him, you are the only one who can kill him, this is your void, use it to your advantage.” the good Anthony suggested.

“You mean, I can control it like a dream?”

“Exactly.” he replied. Aww yeah, now the real Dash is gonna come at you! I thought for a second, then an idea popped into my head like a lightbulb. I thought and then it happened. I was now one of Spike’s main characters in the Power Ponies comic book, Zap. My body, now transformed into the outfit that was Zap’’s, and I felt a heck of a lot stronger.

Anthony made his first move, coming up to me with intense speed, hi scythe in his right hand. He swung directly at me, clearly I was a lot faster now...i quickly dodged the sharp blade and countered with a swift buck in the face. n though, he used his left hand and blocked it, then countered with his still bad hand by picking up my bucking hoof and throwing me. He threw me with tremendous power. Like the dizzy-tron set to the death, I spun around and around, almost making hard for even me to get back to flight. The other Anthony came forward to counteract the bad one, using his sword with swift movements, all I heard was the clatter of metal against metal as I tried to get myself uptight in flight. Once I did,I was probably about a hundred feet away. I moved as fast as I could and got the side of the opposed, I took my back legs while mid air and bucked Anthony on his right side. He cried in pain as I could hear some bones breaking. He took his scythe now in both hands and made a huge swing around himself. Anthony dodged the revolution of his blade, but I took a well hit scratch to my left back-hoof. Just the feeling of that blade against my blood made it boil to a heat, and it hurt like hell itself. The evil Anthony then moved back a bit. His scythe disappeared as he took his hands and cracked his bones on the side back in.

“Ahh, that feels good…” he said, still stretching his side. Once he was done though, his demeanor took to his evil ways again. “Now where was I...oh thats right killing the lot of you,” he snarled. His weapon reappeared out of thin air, I don’t think I ever will get used to that as I physically jolted a bit from the appearance of such a gruesome weapon.

He quickly ran back up to me, but I was to fast for him now. As I dodged, a thought came into my head...teleportation. After the near miss from the shiny blade, I used my new power and teleported right in back of him. I also conjured up some electric power into my hooves and bucked him right in his back. The surge of pain from both my heavy collision into his back and the shock hit his nerves hard as he cried in pain. Tell you the truth though, he just looked more pissed than anything.

“Okay thats it!” he shouted as he snapped his fingers. At the sudden, a large number of smaller scythes appeared around me, all magically controlled it seems. Oh horse-apples was the only thing I was able to mumble under my breath when one at a time came at me in a sprint. I dodged the first one, then prepared for the second one. But I was surprised to find it missed me, making me think. Of course that gave him a little opportunity as he sent the fourth one right towards my head. Luckily Anthony was there to counteract that one. His blade making contact with the evil magic weapon; it seemed like they were in an even stiff, trying to push one another to get a hit. Anthony wincing from the strength of the scythe though prevailed as he pushed the blade back. He then made a short “Ahhh!” And like that, he swung straight down at it, and it shattered into pieces. The blade now shattered dissipated from the void, Yes I mentally said to myself.

“You two are the most annoying brats I have had coming into a void.” he said as he then made a large battle-ax appear out of nowhere again. The large weapon clearly intimidated me, but I stood my ground. I am not going out yet! With quick thinking, I thought something up that made me smile…

“Hey, just asking,” he turned and looked to me, evil still in his eyes and rage from what little damage we had done. “You ever liked...PARTIES!” I shouted as my thought came to reality. Just like my mind had blinked PInkie stood before me at my side.

“Did somepony say party!” as like normal, the breaking fourth-wall pony pulled out her party cannon from nowhere and shot it straight towards the deviled Anthony.” Anthony’s look went from, what the fuck, to holy shit as a barrage of streamers and confetti were ready to penetrate his prone body.

“Well f,” was all he could say as the first streamer hit him directly in the chest. It didn’t seem to do much, but after they kept coming, I pictured it like how I pissed of the bees one day, just a whole bunch of little pesky stings. Once the attack was over, pinkie said bye and opened some zipper right next to her and climbed in, closing it once she was in...i swear that reminds me of something? Anthony now coming out of his prone state, stood up, he looked at me with fury, his right eye twitching and a vein on his forehead bulging.

“you think I could have some niceness here,” he said quietly, but that ended well enough. “Because I am done with this shit!” he roared. He looked at me again and started to walk. Each step he took, he grew a couple of inches. All I could say was, “well buck my life.”

“You…*stomp*...think, *stomp*, you can, *stomp, DEFEAT ME!” he roared now inches away from me. I had to crane my neck all the way and stand back a bit just to see a kinda clear view of him. He must have grown several tens of feet, clearly towering everything. For him, trees...like cars, I couldn’t even believe my own eyes, having to rub them to double check. He took his now giant foot and tried to squish me like a bug, thank Celestia they don’t call me the fastest pony in Equestria for nothing! Barely able to get out of his stomping range.

“Well shit whats the plan,” Anthony called out to me from a closish distance.

“How the buck am I supposed to know, just let me think.”

“Well hurry the hell up!” he shouted at me. The now gigantic Anthony looked over to the good Anthony and took a swing at him using his ginormous clobbering fists. He instinctively ducked under the fists of probably his death. The bad one then used his left fist, sending it down with the rapid speed and help of gravity. Anthony dove away, sliding and hitting the ground. The fist now collided with the earthy dirt, cracking it and uplifting it in a shockwave in the radius of the fist. He got up quickly with his sword in hand and ran towards the hand. He jumped and swung his sword down, sticking his sword into the giants hand and holding onto it, like a needle. Anthony took notice of the others actions and tried to swat him, but like a ninja he pulled out the sword, giving a little cry from the giant, enabling him to run up his arm. He jumped up to reach his shoulders, and like that he was on top of the giants shoulders, looking down uneasily...if he fell he would be dead. The giant shaking his shoulders and moved crazily, trying to get rid of the small pest, but to no avail.

“Rainbow!” he shouted, I looked up to him on the mans shoulders. “Think of a rope!” a thought entered my mind which would be perfect. A voice out of nowhere then gave me the smile I was looking for.

“Yee ha!” she popped out of nowhere, Applejack with her lasso. “What a bigin you got there,” she said as she threw the rope around the giants torso. The rope was able to get around his sides, she tugged him. I need to think of someone strong, huh...aha I got it! And just like magic, a conjured version of spike the knight has appeared in the void.

“Let me handle this ladies,” he said nicely. He took the rope of Applejacks and pulled. The Anthony looked in dread as his whole body fell face first. The good Anthony let himself fall and roll once he was a suitable height towards the ground, leaving him perfectly fine.

“Yeah thats right you ass, get recked!” I said allowed, feeling great for the victory. Of course...my victory was ended when the whole ground shook. Pieces of the earth now breaking off and floating midair. Oh buck.

Chapter 14: Anthony has had enough

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Chapter 15: Checkmate

“There is nothing left for you Rainbow there is nothing left.” these voices in my head...they needed to stop!

“No...there...has to be something left.”

“There is nothing, there IS NOTHING!” its voice getting louder. Okay I am done with this, its time I mare up…I think there is something to fight for!

“NO! I'M DONE WITH YOU! There is something to fight for, and that is myself and my friends, and the person I love! YOU THINK YOU CAN TOTURE ME! You think you can stop me!” Like before when I got pissed off, Each word of anger seemed to make me stronger, words of justice. I had so much magical energy that even the ground started to shake, by the time I was done with my final words, the ground around me was uplifted, and my whole body was glowing cyan. I took my hoof and slammed it against the ground, causing an uproar of ground. The spiking ground heading to the first coyote. Its eyes went wide as it was punctured by one of the sharp rocks, its blood splattering.

The other two coyotes didn’t show fear though, they just looked angrier for what I did. They both jumped me at the same time, like that would fool me.

I teleported before even one of them could touch my body, resulting in the two coyotes colliding with each other. I then turned around towards them and used my thinking to summon something I should used a while ago. The items, wrapping around my front hooves and ready to be used...hidden blades.

“This ones for Anthony and all his bucking nightmares!” I yelled as I used my wings to slingshot myself towards the two animals. Before they could recover from their own collision, by blades came forth from the help of my magic as I stabbed both of them and lifting them up. The moved around aimlessly as my blade was dug into them. I then proceeded to throw them over towards the evil Anthony, a shocked look on his face.

“Not bad, for a mare!” he yelled back and summoned his blade once again. I closed my eyes, thinking back to when Anthony had showed me that game, the moves, the way that man played...its like I knew him, like I knew how to use his skill. Lets make this a little more interesting shall we? I then used my imagination to summon the same outfit that was in the game, only fitted to me. The red outlines complimented my eyes in an unimaginable response, making me look fierce, intimidating, and unpredictable.

“Getting fancy are we now? I thought you didn’t like dresses?” he said annoyingly teasing me.

“Shut your mouth and get ready to be grounded!” I shouted at him, not liking his talk; I even started to move my hoof back as if like a bull.

“Damn, fine...if you want to die quicker...so be it.” at that he teleported in front of me, taking his sword in his hand and swung down. To bad I was ready for it, I used my left hoof to parry his sword, I then instinctively used my right arm, charging it with the same white magic, and slashed at Anthony’s right leg. He winced in pain and teleported back a ways.

“Nasty fucker aren’t you.”

“Not as nasty as you are!” I shouted back defending myself.

“We shall see about that…” he used his hands in an uplifting motion, I had no clue what he was doing, but I didn’t look good. The ground around him started to shake and a large boulder made its way up. He then proceeded to flick the boulder at me. Well that is a large boulder, why not we half this giant. I then took my blade out and kneeled, watching the boulder come before me. Anthony smiled in glee as he thought I just gave up. Oh but he was in for some surprise. Once the boulder was inches away from me, I took out my blade, infusing it with more magic. I held it forward...and when the blade collided with the large boulder, it just cut itself in half. The two pieces went beside me, and I looked forward towards him.

He frowned and then again threw another large boulder at me. I then began to take off, my wings giving out a large gust to propel me fast. The boulder headed straight towards me in the air, but soon not for long, I barrel rolled it clockwise and took out my blade in my right hoof, slicing through the boulder like butter.

Getting more angry, Anthony threw two large boulders again at me. And like before, I dodged them. This time, Anthony sent the two vertically making a wall. Instead of me dodging them, I decided to take a new approach to catch him off guard. Before these two boulders could touch my fur, I took my right hoof and lifted it. I then began to transform my small blade into a long sword. I then swung down hard at the two vertical pieces of rock, cutting them in half vertically. I then took another gust as Anthony was right there after the swing. I then prepared my left hoof to stab him.

Anthony smirked as his blade reappeared , ready to swing at me sideways and kill me. His swing acted slow though, then again everything felt like it was in slow motion. I decided to take another course as I ducked his blade, just cutting off my hair. I slid in between his open legs.

“This is for my love!” I shouted as I turned around still sliding, using my wings to instantly reverse my direction. I turned my sword back to my blade as I took my left hoof and stabbed in the back. I then took out my blade and spun to meet him face to face. When I did, his pained and shocked expression was priceless. I took my right hoof and stabbed him in the neck, and my left hoof stabbed him in his chest. He cried in pain from the painful stab wounds, now making him bleed his blackish blood.

“See you in tartarus!” I yelled as I used my whole body and threw him. He was trying to keep himself up after the throw, his feet jumbling around, but his neck was sliced open, and he couldn’t keep himself up, as his loss of blood and oxygen gave in. Making painful gasps for air as he shuffled his feet and fell...dead.

I myself was wheezing for air, I used a lot of energy, A LOT. I was tired, but I did it! I killed him. I did it!

“Come on Ant, you got this potion...you got this! I succeeded at making the first potion, now I had to make the second one. I threw both the berries in as my final step, but nothing…”

NO!” I yelled, not caring anymore about my parents. The potion had failed, and I used all the rest of the poke berries. I slammed my fist on the light table, almost making the glass crack from the impact. My eyes started to water, for It was over. I couldn’t even help her now…

“Hey dummy, think you could help me up.” the sound of that voice, it made me jump for joy.

“RAINBOW! Oh my god I thought I lost you!” I went over to her and tried to help her up. But, instead of her needing help up, she must have had other things in mind. She took me and dove in for a kiss. I was surprised, this was a shocker. I just took it though, moving my lips in sync with hers, enjoying such a passionate kiss. We finally broke it for lack of oxygen…

“Anthony I need to tell you something I should have bucking said a long time ago.”

“What?” I asked. I really don’t know what she is going to say, but I hope its good.

“I love you Anthony, I had all these emotions stopping me, telling me no, but its clear now that I love you, I love you a lot,” I must have passed out when she told me, because she kissed me back awake.

“Wow…I’m speechless…”

“Probably cause I am a good kisser,” she boasted.

“Yeah you are,” I said in awe, trying to take in the moment.

“What time is it anyways?”

“Three in the morning,” I said calmly, still in shock.

“Wow we need to get to bed…” she then scanned my room. “Hey, why is that vial glowing over there?”

“The potion…”

“The potion! How did you make it without knowing the instructions!”

“With Luck, and skill,” I chuckled.

“Wow nice job, but why?”

“I thought since you were out dead, I could send you back to Equestria and see if someone could help you.”

“You know you would have left forever, your parents would have probably worried that you just disappeared, and what about your friends?” she was right, I never even did think about that.

“I guess your right, but your life means so much to me.” I hugged her.

“Aren’t you cute,” she barely said while she snickered.

“Hey!”

“What? You can’t handle it can you?”

“...no…”

“haha!”

“Well I don’t know about you, but I need some sleep at least.” I said starting to yawn, indeed I was very tired.

“Yeah me to...i think I deserve a nap after that.”

“Shall we then,” we both uncovered the sheets and popped ourselves in them. Once we were comfortably, and might I add warmly close to each other. I was about to turn off the lights when rainbow said something.

“Goodnight my love,” She then nuzzled into my shoulder and began to doze into her sleep. Her words hit my heart, it made me feel happy, for once, my life is complete. I turned off the light with a flip of a switch and cuddled up with her, our bodies once again enjoying one anothers company.

What a day Anthony, what a day. And to think, this is your last day with her. I guess you ended strong, but she will be out of your life soon, pretty much forever tomorrow. I guess it has to happen, I guess it has…

Chapter 1: Storm of Rainbows

It was a normal Friday as a matter of fact. My parents had to go to the farmers market so I was stuck at home with just myself….basically home alone. They weather man said it would be clear skies for the rest of the evening, thats not what happened though this Friday evening.

“Now Anthony if you need anything just give us a ring, okay.”

“Yeah mom I got it, house burns down or something just give you a ring.” my mom was really nice. She actually was about the only one that cooked homemade things deliciously. Something that never came from other mothers. One thing I was also thankful for is that I inherited that to, cause I can cook damn well.

“Another Friday of boredom,” I said in my head. Fridays were usually boring since I had nothing to do. Internet was slow today and we had antenna TV...well you know how that goes.

“Be good son, we will be back around nine to ten.”

“Gotcha,” I said and gave both my parents a hug before finally seeing them exit the doorway. Once that door closed, and I saw my parents drive off in the blue van, I quickly walked to my room, not knowing what will happen. I decided to listen to some music while I worked on my fanfic, “Storm Of rainbows,”quirky title huh? Well just to mention to you, I personally adore Rainbow dash, and who not better to write it on other than her. I was going through a couple of pages, effortlessly working through the intro. I was about almost done with the intro, I was listening to pony-step at the time. I was then suddenly shocked by a huge strike of lightning come close to my window and then came the obnoxiously loud crackling noise of thunder. I jumped, even with loud pony-step I heard that pretty well. I took my headphones off and looked at the time, 8 O’clock. So I still had two hours and now a storm came, oh fun! Especially when the power went out about twenty minutes after the sudden strike which I didn't save my fanfic. I was pissed, so I just shut my laptop down hard, but not so hard it would break anything. With the loud bang, and me venting myself, I opened my bedroom door to the dark living room.

Nothing seemed good now, parents gone, power outage. Usually I would die for parents to be away, but not in this case. I looked around the living room for my phone and it took a minute or two to find. I turned on the light of my phone and suddenly another colossal bolt of lightning cast itself and it practically blinded me. Then the thunder and this time made the house shake. “Why today! Why!” I said. I decided to go out to the front porch and look at the hectic weather. I opened the living room door to the main porch. It was covered and had screening in which was perfect, but we also had a rap-around porch which I decided to peek a better look.

“If only this was equestrian weather, so we actually knew what happened!” I yelled. Weather men never get it right, definitely not today. I was walking on the rap-around porch and approached the swing. I took a seat and was swinging around when another flash of lightning attacked. This time it definitely blinded me for five to eight seconds guessing the time. “What the…” I tried to regain my vision. Only once has a bolt ever gotten so close to me before, the same outcome to...me being blinded for five to six seconds. I then heard a growing noise, like someone, or something hitting the ground hard. I still couldn't see that well as my vision was blurry. At first I thought it was a tree or branch, until I heard a slight moan of pain to where it was coming.

“Uh...hello?” I asked trying to figure out who it was. All I heard was another groan of pain and the slightest words…”help.”

Oh crap! My vision started to regain itself and I looked around to find out where the painful groans were coming from. It was outside, it must have been, cause it sounded like the guy hit the dirt very hard. I still couldn’t see that well, and from the rap-around, I wouldn’t be able to see who came down from the heavens. “I’m coming!” I shouted to try to help whoever just got injured. I was scared, who or what is injured? Where did they come from? I decided to just run in the rain. I shuffled my feet quickly down the steps, but also trying to avoid a bad slip.

I was down the steps and when I hit the ground my shoes were then soaked. “My Jays!” I groaned as I looked down at the damage. This person is gonna owe me new ones for saving his or her life. The water seeped through my Jays and hit my socks, which made my running feel uncomfortable. “Oh well, screw it!” I ran anyway around the flower bed my mom was working on. The peach tree had about thirty to forty ripe peaches on it and the branches holding them slumped down. The only reason she has not picked them yet is because she is really busy with other things and wants me to do it. I really did not care though.

The plants leaves seemed happy for the drops of rain as it splattered their leaves, of course it was different for me. Water that drizzled from my hair to my eyes started to blur my vision, but I still persisted. My whole body was practically soaked from the rain now, but that didn’t matter now. My vision was blurry but I could start to see the person on the ground.

It looked odd though, not really shaped like a human, more like a child, small. Each wipe of my hands to my eyes washed away the droplets, and slowly I was getting the picture as I encroached. I was now about ten feet away from the person, the color of her clothes were cyan, a beautiful blue cyan. I finally reached him, or so I thought. My vision was still blurry but I could tell from the outline, this was no human.

I used my hands which were the only things partially dry. My shirt was drenched from the heavy downpour and my pants were soaked because of the puddles I ran into. I wiped my eyes and looked again. This time I could see much clearer.

“huh...no...it…” I thought hard for a second, for the thing I saw was no human, no animal, no thing that lived on earth. It was Rainbow Dash. She seemed to be in very bad shape, she was lying down flat, trying to breath. Her right wing visible to me looked broken, her bones crooked like a dead tree in the winter, almost made me cringe from the imagination of her pain. The other wing though I could not see. Her mane, tattered like prison clothing from the storm brought before us and her nasty crash. She had blood running slowly, oozing from her nose. Her legs shivered and shook nervously, like she was in shock.

“Holy shit! Rainbow? Umm…” I had no clue what to do. Do I leave her here? Do I call the ambulance...no they wont believe a mystical pegasus pony needs help. I guess there is only one alternative to these.

“It is going to okay rainbow…” I told her, she still was breathing heavily and was just trying to keep herself to that. I tried to pick her up, to my luck I succeeded. Haha, rolled that 20 for strength check! She was a light pony. Never did I thought she would be so light. Her body looked very toned, she was very athletic. Her wing muscles looked good, and strong, well except the broken one. I could feel her muscles of her legs and fore hooves, which made me envy her. I walked to the steps, not caring about the rain, not the lightning, but to an injured mare. I finally made it to the steps and slowly carried her up. Once she was out of the rain, she seemed to breath easier, as if she couldn't breath with the rain hitting her exposed body. Her body was soaking wet, but so was mine so no matter.

I laid her down on the metal circular table outside from the indoor porch so that I could open the porch doors. I did and slid the metal piece so that the door stood in place. I picked her back up and carried her to the large table in the porch. “What has happened to you?” I said to myself out loud. She must have heard that and jolted her eyes towards me. Those beautiful reddish magenta eyes now gazed upon me. She looked at me in fear, not knowing what had happened to her. It looked like she was about to pass out. Her legs stopped twitching and she was awake now. Well, when I mean awake, not petrified like how she was lying on the flooded ground. Her hair was all messed up from the rain.

“umm… I am going to get a towel for you okay...bye,” and that I rushed nervously to the bathroom.

“What the hell just happened!” I tried retracing what lead to this freak accident. Just doing my fanfic, when a storm came...a storm, that is what it was! She must have been caught in the storm while flying and crashed landed here.

“Makes sense,” as I grabbed my towel. I closed the bathroom door, now with the towel in my right hand. I opened the door with my left hand to the porch. I was suddenly shocked when I saw nothing...absolutely nothing. I became getting nervous.

“What the fuck?” I looked at the table. Was I imagining things? I looked again at the table...wait...there was blood near the top left side. So I was not imagining things...huh, then where did she go and how did she move her body with the condition she was in?

I looked around aimlessly around the porch, searching every nook and cranny. I then heard a small moan of pain coming out side. I ran outside near the steps to find rainbow, wing spread ready to fly, or try to.

Rainbow don…” I was cut off with her wings large gust and took off. She seemed to be about five feet off the ground though. Seeing the inevitable, I ran towards her to try to prevent what I think was going to happen. I heard her make a loud groan, and heard a sharp pain noise, I think it came from her wing. She started to fall. Thankfully I slid and the water took me all the way and I sprung to catch her with my arms opened. I caught her and fell, with me on bottom and I must have slid two or three feet. My back mostly took the fall and I was fine but I bruised my right arm. It did not hurt that bad, thank god I caught her. I was breathing now heavily, with her breathing the same on top of me.

I looked at her, as she laid flat on top of me. Her eyes again stared at my own and I could not help but to stare back. I broke the awkward eye gesture and coughed.

“umm...w...why...did...you...do that…” trying to speak to her. Oh she was awake, she was just mortified by the fact that I just saved her from even worse injury or possibly death.

“help me…” she said and then passed out from over exertion. I was kind of shocked to see such a loyal and brave mare ask for help like this, but she was in no condition to say the least. I used my hands and put her to the side of me; the now passed out mare. Her nose stopped bleeding and she looked a little bit better, maybe with this pass out she will be better. I got myself up, drenched even more than I was before, and my clothes dirty from the fall and slide. I picked up the cyan pony and walked again for the second time, only this time my room.

Author's Note

*If you haven't noticed, they indentation can refer to my thoughts, but when there is a line break it is Rainbow Dash speaking. Just a heads up because there is this in the chapter.*

Chapter 3: Enjoyable times

“Anthony…Anthony”

“Rainbow?” I was in a void, a black void, only hearing Rainbow’s voice. All the sudden my memory lapsed and went to a Ponyville scene. It was the library and the rest of the five were gathered as twilight was using here magical aurora, picking books left and right quickly flipping through them.

“Twi we cannot do any more about Rainbow, she is gone…” said Fluttershy

“But there must be something, I mean…” she was stopped as a orange hoof was put on her shoulder, applejack.

Look twi, we all loved...Rainbow Dash, but you have nothin else gal. I for one liked Rainbow, but y'all must accept this in move on, ya here me?” Twilight stopped her magic, the books she was holding with it dropped and made a harsh hit. She was crying now, as was Applejack, shedding a tear for her dear friend.

“Just hope…” my memory faded before she said the rest of her words. Words kept repeating themselves, “there is nothing, there is nothing...there is nothing,” my dream faded.

I awoke slowly, my eyes started to unwrap themselves from the darkness. I had my eye open now and looked as I was on my side. Weird because I felt I was closer to the middle of the bed than I was...before hand. I then felt something touch my left side. I used my hand to try and feel what it was and...it was furry. It was Rainbow’s front right hoof. She also then moved her legs which I could feel near my thighs. I think Rainbow just cuddled up to me. Or did I? Well ,what can I do, I can’t wake her.

After my sudden thought, I saw rainbow yawn quietly and could tell she was going to be awake. Her eyes must have opened because she instantly recoiled her hooves and back hooves off of me. I faked myself being awoken by her rustling my slumber.

“Ah…what a great night rest don’t you think?” I said with a smile as I turned around to face her on my side, eye to eye. She looked nervous at first, probably because of the affection she showed, because she never shows affection, ever. Damn forgot about the dream, eh tell her later.

“uh...uh yeah a great night,” she said hesitantly, I was thinking about teasing her, and saying just what popped in my mind.

“Funny cause I swear I was awoken of someone touching my body,”

“Hehe funny,” she said nervously almost breaking a sweat.

“Are you okay Dash?”

“Huh what? Oh yeah I am fine, just nerves of pain from awkward sleep position.”

“Come on Dash, you look worse than if that happened you can tell me.”

“uh...uh…”

“Look…I know you were cuddling with me while we are asleep and I do not know if it was because you miss your friends and Equestria or just affection for saving me, but it is ok, I did not mind,”

“…uh...you…knew?”

“Honestly I woke up before you and felt your hooves on my side, it is fine, besides I really like you anyway,” shit didn’t mean to say that I likes you part, oh shit! She looked funny at first while she stared at me, her mind fixated on my words and her brain was trying to comprehend them. I blushed and she looked at me and smiled.

“Yeah right! Like you would like a boaster and not perfect pony,” she said sarcastically.

“But...ugh...i really like you as a friend Rainbow, I was not as happy as I am now with you. You make me happy, I feel happy, I feel amazing around you” Anthony stop yourself now! I blushed harder now and she gasped and looked at me like, wait what!

“Wait a minute. You are saying that...you love me?” Her question and voice so sweet to touch I didn’t know if I could answer. Her wings relaxing and moving a tiny bit by bit trying to figure out if her wings were ok. Her legs moved side to side in a nervous way.

“well...uh...what I mean to say is that…” before I could finish my sentence of truth about me liking her, her wings that she was checking took a small gust and flew her right towards me. Her legs kicked back so she could move easier. She gave me an unbreathable hug. I could feel her soft fur, her aroma again filling my nose. She gave off a large sum of body heat compared that enveloped me along with her hooves, now wrapped around my waist.

“Anthony you are such a great friend. You have already helped my from death, kept me alive, and mea me feel happy. You are the best friend I have ever had.”

“it is hard for me to explain how you are real. It is hard to explain the comprehension of your friendship for me. And I cannot believe you do not believe you are a wonderful mare. You are my favorite of the six, the sonic rainboom is incredible and your rainbow mane is gorgeous,” she blushed as I could feel her warming cheek against my neck.

“I never seen such a side of you? A side where you show affection. I mean there has been times where you took a tear, but last night and today, I have never seen such emotion.” I said once again.

“When I crash landed Anthony, I felt that my life was over, when twilight performed that spell and accidentally transported me to this world, I was teleported right into a storm. I have dealt with bad storms before, but your weather is so…”

“Random” I finished her sentence.

“Yeah how did you know?”

“One, great minds think alike, two the weather is random here compared to Cloudsdale telling you and having a flying weather team take care of the clouds.”

“Oh yeah, Cloudsdale haha, I forgot you cannot control the weather.” She gave a sigh.

“Eh, it is not that bad, at least it is random and you do not know what to expect, you can be thankful or disgusted by what the weather is like,”

“Haha true,” she laughed at what I had spoken of. There was an awkward silence for about a whole thirty seconds when…

“Anthony! Breakfast is ready!” My mom shouted since my door was shut.

“Coming!” I yelled back to her. “oh by the way, I do not know if you like our food, since you are a…

“Hay eater, herbivore as know-it-all say it,” she finished my sentence adding in twi’s smart remark.

“Yeah.”

“Well you don’t know till you try it right?”

“Yep, well you cannot eat with me, if I showed them I had a talking pony named Rainbow Dash and showed them to you, they would probably have a heart attack.”

“Yeah I understand du...I mean Anthony.” I thought for a second on this large predicament. Dash needed food to keep for strength up if she ever wanted to return to Ponyville and her friends. Like that an idea popped in my head.

“Hey I have an idea! Why not afterwards I will make you something without my parents noticing.”

“Good idea stupid, but how?”

“Haha, well my parents work outside, so when they are out I will make you eggs, or pancakes or something of the sort.

“What are those things.”

“ You never had Hay pancakes in Canterlot?”

“Never gone really to the restaurants there sorry.”

“I will make those then. I am sure you will like them,” I have her a smile and she smiled back.

“Anthony do you even want food!?!”

“Yes! I am coming, just...cleaned my room up a bit.” I opened and shut my bedroom door since the table we ate at was literally four feet away from it on the right. So far so good. While I was eating,I thought that maybe if Dash and I got some more alone time, I could carry her outside so she could get some fresh air rather than being in my bedroom 24/7. Okay that sounded wrong. My mom came with the food. It was scrambled eggs, bacon and hash browns. Hash browns were my favorite part of breakfast if we had them, they were so good! It was like breakfast french fries.

Soooo...what are we doing today?” trying to bring up some smalltalk. I can usually talk well when we eat together, just becase of the situation, I was like a soda machine being out of order.

“Well your mom and I will be going to pick up some groceries since we are running out, do you want to come?”

“I think I am good, but maybe you could pick up some donuts?”

“Alright then, so I guess you will have to be home alone again like yesterday for about two hours okay.”

“Got it.”

“Now I want you to be careful like always,” my mom said.

“I will I will, so when will you guys be off to the grocery store.”

“About...shoot! Let’s go honey,” they both got out of their chairs and went to the door, they must have been late to their schedule. I just smiled as they left.

“Hell yes! Finally Dash gets to really hang out with me!”

Chapter 16: Ending trail of a rainbow

I had awoken late, it must have been because I felt groggy when I tried getting up. Something seemed odd though. That's when I remembered, Rainbow wasn’t there anymore. I began to panic for a second, jumping up wide awake and looking around everywhere for her in my room.

It was then though when I noticed the vial was gone. I then remembered she had to leave today, and it was going to be early in the morning. I felt depressed for she was gone...forever. I will never see my mare-friend again, never. I used my hands to rub my eyes awake again. I turned my head right when I noticed my MacBook was on. It had been on for a while now I walked over and shook the mouse what popped up surprised me.

It was my story, storm of Rainbows, but finished? She must have been on my computer and typed what had happened to her. I was reading her battle scene, enjoying it for sure. Then...as I scrolled down...there was a note at the end of it. It said:

“Love you forever, I might never see you again Anthony, but I wanted you to know that if I do, I want us to live happy lives together. I never thought I would be saying this but...I adore you, and my heart is aching as much as yours…”

Tears began to form in my eyes, it was so amazing. I couldn’t help but cry tears of loss and joy from her words.

Hey this is Anthony, this was typed by Rainbow and I over my summer break in ninth grade, cool huh! Actually it was really hectic for me, but in the end it turned out ok. Yeah, actually right now, I am a tenth grader. Summer has past and school was ok, but it was never the same without Rainbow. People know I am a brony, and they don’t care, some think its cool and others, well not so much. But I hang on there, cause of Rainbow. I will always love Rainbow, sometimes, I cry at night because I don’t have that same comforting feeling like I did last summer. I reread this story on my computer all the time, and actually this is the first for me to come back and type myself some ending notes for me.

Aw damn, thats my mom, she must be calling me to dinner, well I guess I have to go now...wait...what in the world..
