This was probably the strangest dream Ryan has ever had in his entire life. He couldn't remember a majority of them, but he knew that none of them were ever good. There were no happy endings, there was no sense of peace, and he usually never lived for more than a few minutes at a time. That's what made this one stand out so much.

Clearly he was asleep, he could tell by the small distortions of the area around him. The grass was blood red, the trees were burned and twisted at odd angles, and the sky looked as though the sun was a billion times closer than it should have been. He could hear the roar of the flames above him as they erupted in every direction. He inspected himself to find his body coated in a dark red liquid that dripped down into the discolored grass beneath him.

He looked down and took a step, causing the ground beneath him to turn black. It was like there was a strange darkness seeping out of him and everything it touched started to fade away.

In fact, everything seemed to darken overall. The fiery mass above him started to deplete, making way for a beautiful night sky. The raging inferno continued to seep away until it was nothing more than a bright white orb in the sky. The grass shifted to it's normal green color, but was difficult to see due to the lack of lighting. All of the trees began mending themselves, becoming rich with life again. The liquid coating his body evaporated into a thick steam that floated into the sky and blew away by a gentle breeze.

Ryan blinked once, then twice, then thrice. "...What the fuck was that all about?"

"I could ask you the same thing."

Ryan screamed once again at the familiar feminine voice, his body shooting around to find Luna standing behind him with an awkward look on her face. "Okay, they really need to put a fucking bell on you!"

Luna crossed her arms, giving Ryan a serious look. "We need to talk."

Judging from her expression, he wasn't going to weasel out of whatever she had in store for him. That and she seemed to have some kind of control over his dreams. According to Twilight, Luna could take over the dreams of ponies. She did this to help them, apparently. He was hoping that she wouldn't be able to do the same to his...so much for that.

"Okay..." He simply replied, mentally kicking himself while doing so.

Suddenly, the area around them started to distort, fading away to something that Ryan found to be strangely familiar. He was in Canterlot, standing outside on top of a roof.

He glanced back at Luna with a questioning haze. "Uh...I don't get it."

The night princess took a few steps toward Ryan, "I want you to look around for a moment." She began, a look of nostalgia beginning to form on her face. "Look around and tell me the first thing that comes to your mind."

Ryan was confused, clearly. What was this mare's angle? What was she trying to prove? Regardless of what it was, he obeyed and scanned the area with his eyes. For some reason, he started to feel a little energetic. He felt excited. A wide grin spread across his face as he looked over at a nearby rooftop.

Without even thinking, Ryan took off. Running at a full sprint to the edge of the building and leaping with a determined grunt escaping his throat. "Loosen the legs," He said to himself, "tighten the chest, prepare for landing." Ryan landed on a slightly smaller building's roof; waiting for his feet to hit solid ground before letting his body fall and roll to lessen the impact. He was breathing heavily once he had forced his body back to a standing position

Ryan was smiling like a loon, feeling as though he were an old man that had been taken back to a childhood memory to relive it all over again. He looked up a the alicorn still standing on the other roof. "Come on, little miss bad girl. What, am I too much for you to...keep up with..."

He paused, those words having left his lips as if they were rehearsed. A sharp pain in his head made itself known, causing him to let out a distressed grunt and cradle his forehead in his palm. Luna flew down from the other rooftop, landing less than a foot away from the suffering human.

"We're not done yet." She said in an ominous tone.

"I don't..." Ryan began, finding it difficult to speak with the obnoxious ringing in his ears. "I don't understand." He finished, feeling a trickling sensation on his lip. He forced himself to ignore the pain in his head long enough to place a hand to his face. Once he removed it he found a small stream of blood run down his fingers. "What the fuck?"

The scenery distorted again and Ryan soon found himself in some kind of cave. In front of him was a large congregation of strange, bug-like, creatures that were staring at him with unsettling grins. He turned his head to see some kind of corridor, one that a much smaller version on these things was standing in.

It locked eyes with his, fear clearly filling her own. He didn't know how he knew that she was female, but he did. Something was building up in him, a rage that he couldn't control. He felt as though he cared deeply for this thing and wanted nothing more than to protect it. He watched as she took off and turned his head back to the group. In the back was one that stood much taller than the others. She stood nearly seven feet tall and had the most twisted grin on her face.

A severe pain shot through Ryan's skull, causing him to reach his hands up and burry his fingers into his head. It felt like hundreds of small razors were burrowing their way into him. The sensation sent wave after wave of blood to his brain. He could feel his pulse in his eye sockets as several blood vessels started to pop, leaving the white in his eyes red as they filled with blood. The pain passed and he looked up at the group of Changelings surrounding him, as well as the smiling queen.

A disturbing grin graced his features. "I'm gonna kill each and every one of you." He spoke with an unnatural growl in his voice. "I'm gonna rip off your skin, wrap it around my dick, AND FUCK YOUR QUEEN WITH IT!!!"

They recoiled at this and before they knew it, the human was charging at them, screaming like a maniac. He grabbed the nearest one by the throat, lifting it above his head before slamming it to the ground with enough force to snap its neck with a loud crack.

After that, they were upon him. One after the other, changelings started to swarm the human. He reacted quickly, teeth bared, fists swinging, all while roaring like some kind of animal. Each bug he got ahold of was either knocked down, knocked out, or bleeding out. At one point he even bit out one's jugular.

The queen actually started to worry, he was taking on her subjects like they were nothing. Her horn charged, shining with a bright green color as she shot a beam of magic at him. It struck his shoulder, but that only seemed to make him angrier and even lock his sights onto her.

Ryan charged at her, plowing through the wall of changeling guards. He jumped into the air, reaching out and grabbing Chrysalis' horn in his hand as he knee launched into her skull. Her horn snapped off from the impact, causing her to let out a blood curdling scream. When he landed his body jerked around, only to see that the queen had vanished. However, the others were still here.

He gazed at the severed horn in his hand with a newfound interest. It wasn't long before another changeling charged him, sadly only to be met with Ryan's new weapon. He thrust the horn upward, puncturing the creatures jaw and burying it into its head.

Time stopped and his rage subsided, the bloodbath before him melted away into nothingness and he was left staring with wide eyes at the surrounding darkness.

He panicked and started running, the area changing once more and putting him in some kind of forest. He sprinted as fast as he could, dodging tree after tree and soon came upon a small clearing where a creek rested in front of him. Ryan's eyes quickly scanned the area for a way around or otherwise. He spotted a low hanging branch near the center of the creek and picked up speed. He leaped up and grabbed the branch, using it to propel his body forward. Once he let go his body flew right over the clear waters below and he landed on the other side. with ease.

Ryan stopped, he had the strangest feeling that something was going happen. He turned around to see Luna running behind him.

"Luna, wait!" He yelled, but it was too late. She leaped up and grabbed the branch, only for it to break and send her plummeting toward the water.

Ryan quickly reached out and grabbed Luna by the arm, yanking her the rest of the way over so she wouldn't land in the creek. He stumbled in the process and collapsed on top of her.

There was a brief silence, the only sound coming from either of them being the sound of their heavy breathing. Luna looked up at Ryan, and he looked down at her, both smiling at the other.

Ryan laughed a bit, "Fuck, that was close one."

"You're telling me." Luna replied, "I'm the one who almost fell in."

His smile didn't falter as he stared down at her with loving eyes.

Are you just gonna lay here with your thumb up your ass? Kiss the girl, you faggot!

Ryan's smile vanished, something was wrong. "No...No that's not how this happened." He said, feeling as though he knew how this should have played out. "You were supposed to fall in. You did fall in. I even jumped in after you. I-" He stopped, the pain from before returning tenfold. The ringing in his ears was nearly deafening. He placed a hand to his face to discover that his nose was bleeding again. He looked back down at Luna, who was now giving him a serious look. "What's happening?"

"These are things that have already happened, but at the same time, they haven't." Luna explained, "What I am showing you are memories, your memories. Memories of events that could have been."

This was starting to get too weird for the human. He picked himself up off of Luna and climbed back to his feet, doing everything he could to kill the piercing pain in his head. "Fuck...make it stop!"

Luna materialized in front of him, placing her hands on his shoulders. "These were events that should have happened."

"H-how do you...know?" He managed to ask in a strained voice before pulling away from her.

"Magic." She simply replied. "After we met on the roof, I couldn't help but feel as though you weren't where you were supposed to be; That I wasn't where I was supposed to be. I found a spell that allowed me to look into the past and see what should have been."

Ryan gave her an odd look, but couldn't say anything. "You weren't meant to come to this world when you did. You weren't meant to find love with Twilight." She moved closer to him, taking his hand in hers. "You were supposed to find it with me..."

On one half of his mind, he wanted to call bullshit. This was clearly some kind of mind game she was playing! But, on the other half, he believed her. Time somehow changed and he wanted her more than anything. Being stuck in this conflicted state, he didn't noticed when Luna had grabbed him by the head and locked her lips with his.

His eyes widened for a moment, but as she kissed him, the ringing stopped. He felt at peace, like everything was how it was supposed to be. He leaned into the lunar mare, deepening their oral embrace.

It wasn't long before their tongues started fighting for control over the other. The growing intensity of their make out was already sparking their arousal. Ryan felt a strange sense dominance take him over, making him push Luna up against a nearby tree. He broke the kiss and started biting and licking up her neck, causing her to let out a pleased gasp.

Luna tried to contain herself, but her urges were flying through the roof. She wanted him, she craved him. With little to no effort, the alicorn forced Ryan to the ground, pinning him in place as she straddled his waist and forced her lips against his once again, only breaking it when she grabbed his shirt and pulled it over his head. Even though she could have easily made it vanish, what with this being a dream and all, half of the fun is being able to undress your partner.

Stop

In Ryan's eyes, this bitch had just issued him a challenge. As fun as having her dominating him would be, he never backs down from a challenge. In the blink of and eye he had managed to turn the tables, grabbing Luna by the waist and forcing them to roll. Once he was on top he grabbed hold of her small shirt and tore it in half, her bra tearing along with it.

Snap out of it!

It wasn't long before he buried his face into Luna's magnificent breasts, placing his mouth over one of her nipples and biting down on it and he grinded his hardened member against the wet spot forming in her shorts. She was moaning loudly at his assault, further encouraging him to increase his efforts to tease her.

Hey, Fuckwit! Think about what you're doing!

It took all of his willpower, but Ryan eventually forced himself to stop and shot back to his feet, glaring daggers at Luna. "No! I-I can't. I'm with Twilight, for fuck sake!"

Luna stared at Ryan with pleading eyes, soon rising to her feet and making her way over to him, "But you were supposed to be with me. You saw it yourself."

"I was not!" He yelled bluntly, "If I was, then I'd already be with you. Yes, I saw it; I saw what could have happened, but it didn't! None of that happened. If you and I were really meant for each other, then don't you think that's how things would have played out!?"

She paused, frozen with shame. He was right; As much as she wanted it to, none of it happened. It was all stuff that she saw as right, but in reality it wasn't. As she reflected on what she was forcing him to go through and she couldn't help but feel like she was trying to steal him from Twilight. A pit started to grow in her stomach as she continued to realize what she was doing. Her eyes started to water and she fell to her knees.

"What have I done?" Luna asked herself, the ever so familiar feeling of loneliness taking over her mind. "I just...I feel so alone." She said between sobs, "I saw you and...I saw everything...I just wanted to feel loved...Why can't I do anything right!?"

Her crying continued for about half a minute, only to stop as she found herself being pulled into the human's naked chest. His arms wrapped around her back and pulled her deeper into him. The faintest smile graced her features as she returned the embrace, holding him as one would hold a dying relative, knowing that this could be the last embrace they share.

Ryan kept a tight grip on the Lunar princess, knowing very well what she was going through. "It's okay, you're not alone. You have your friends, you have your family." He began, "I understand that it sucks to not have someone to call our own; Believe me, I lived that life for a long time. I know how it feels to be alone, wanting nothing more then for someone out there to give a damn about you." He broke the hug and placed a hand against Luna's cheek, wiping a tear away with his thumb. "But you've gotta open your eyes. You're not alone. You're surrounded by people who care about you; your sister, Twilight, her friends, your subjects; They all love you. There's only thing left that your missing." Luna didn't say a word, she just looked at him, waiting. "You need to learn how to love yourself."

Finally, a real smile spread across Luna's face. She leaned back, pulling away from Ryan and wiping her face dry with her arms. "You're fairly wise for someone your age. Perhaps a bit more than myself."

Ryan shrugged, "Yeah, I get that from time to time."

The mare laughed a bit, finding his somewhat cocky attitude kind of funny, if not adorable. "I'm terribly sorry for all of this...could you ever forgive me?"

"Don't worry about it." Ryan said in a plain tone. "I can't say I wouldn't do the same thing if I were in your shoes." His words only continued to make Luna feel better. Then his expression turned into serious, as well as slightly cautious. "Also, we probably shouldn't bring this up to anybody...Like, ever."

Luna smiled nervously, "Yes, I think that would be best." She took one last look around, taking in the small memory that never existed. After she was satisfied, she decided that it was time to put an end to all of this. "I think that we've outlived this dream."

"I would say so." With that, Ryan got back up and held out a hand to pull Luna back up as well.

She gave him one last smile as her horn started to glow. "Shall I see you tomorrow for breakfast?"

"Will there be bacon?"

"I think I can have it arranged."

"Then yes!" Just as Luna was about to end the dream, Ryan's loud mouth had one more comment. "By the way; A plus on those double D's sweetheart."

Luna gave him a suggestive grin as she looked down at her breasts and gave them a good squeeze. "Well, they're here if you ever change your mind."

There was a bright flash and Ryan found himself laying face down in a pillow. With a bit of grumbling he lifted his upper body with his arms and looked to the side. He saw a closed window that revealed to him that it was still pretty dark out. Glancing a bit lower he found an empty bed space and pillow...a pillow covered in dry blood.

He started to pick up on the sound of someone panting just beneath him and turned his head down to see Twilight staring up at him with a look of lust in her eyes.

"Why did you stop?" She asked almost desperately.

Ryan smiled, letting out a soft laugh before he planted a passionate kiss on her lips. "I hope you know just how much I love you."

"Where did that come from?" Twilight asked playfully, smiling back at him.

His face went stoic and expressionless. "Me..." He said in a mocking tone. "It came out of my mouth..."

She rolled her eyes and pulled him against her, "Just fuck me already."

That's my girl!

Author's Note

First off, I'm feeling much better. I'm not quite 100%, but I'm getting there. Had a brief period where my whole body kind of shut down...for about 6+ hours. But, I'm fine! I'm okay, I'm alive. Scared me shitless for a little bit, but I pulled through.

I know this chapter got really weird, but I'm hoping I played it off well. Also, I feel like this song is very fitting for the ending. So feel free to go back and read the last part while its playing.

AND, if you enjoyed this chapter, slap that like button like a bitch and share it with your friends. Also, feel free to leave a comment below, comments make me feel special :P
