[Hawk's POV]

Looking at the horse beside me I could tell she was a magician with the hat and cape. Her coat was azure and she had violet eyes. "So, not going to run away like the others?" I sighed as my mind went back to ealier in the day by thier terrified expressions when they first saw me.

"What's the point, I got nothing else to lose anyways." I was surprised by this, this was the first one that wasn't afraid at me.

"What's a horse like you doing in the forest and not in that stupid town named Ponyville." I growled as I said Ponyville. 'Damn even in this world I still get those looks, by horses! Freaking horses making me feel worse!'

She seemed to look offended on what I said, "Trixie is not one of those ugly horses! She is a unicorn." she said angrily. Great, this one talks in third person. "Wait, your a unicorn?" I asked in confusion. She nodded and lifted her hat to show her horn. 'So I'm in a world full of mythological creatures'.

She then spoke up, "Trixie wishes to ask you a question." I look at her telling her to go on. "What in Equestria are you?" asked Trixie. Seeing as how I should answer this question truthfully after what happed earlier. I cringed at the memory of all those ponies laughing at me. "Hello did you hear Trixie's question?" Trxie asked as she observed my fists clenching.

My mind goes back to reality as I see the unicorn giving me a worried look. "Oh sorry, I was just thinking of something from earlier." I said giving an apologetic look. "Oh I'm a homo sapien or a human for short. I said with a fake smile on my face.

"I saw what they did to you back in Ponyville." Trixie calmly says. Anger came back to me reminding me of the incident. But seeing the unicorn's scared expression I calmed myself down. "Sorry about that" I sheepishly said rubbing my neck. "That stupid unicorn made a fool out of me just because I didn't take her damn questions seriously." I stated but then a question popped in my head.

"You didn't answer my earlier question on why you are here and talking to a monster." I questioned raising an eyebrow at her while I was playing with dirt. "Trixie would rather not talk about it." she said nervously. "Also Trixie doesn't think your a monster".

I stopped poking at the dirt and looked at her. 'Surely she must be joking.' But the serious look on her face told me otherwise. "Huh, your the first one to say that, but may I ask why" I said with relief that other ponies don't think of me as a monster.

"Well if you were a monster you wouldn't be here talking to me." 'Well that's true.' "But why are their cuts and bruises all over your body?" I froze as I forgotten that the bruises around my arms and face were still visible. Taking a deep breath knowing I had to tell someone about it.

"Well back were I was from I was living a happy life. My parents made life easier and more fun." I smiled remembering the good old times back then. Then I continued, "But one day I came back from a fun day at school but I didn't see my parents anywhere. Then I found a note and it read:

Dear Hawk,

As you noticed we aren't in the house but we had to leave. We cannot tell you the reason for our departure because you wouldn't understand until your older. We have left some money in the kitchen so you can buy food so you won't starve to death.

Sorry it has to be this way but we love you too much to let anything happen to you

Love, your Mom & Dad

I finished saying what the letter said and started to feel water coming down from my eyes. Then the unicorn spoke up, "It's okay if you wish not to talk about."

I shook my head. "No I have to tell somone about it."

"You mean somepony?" I gave her a confused look. "Sure, anyways after that day I kept to myself around school. After Middle school it was a living hell for me. I ran out of money so I had to live somewhere else. I found an abandoned shed so I made it my home."

"When I entered high school it was torture! Since the first day I stepped foot at the high school bullies started to pick on me." Fury raced through my mind remembering th beatings they gave me. Letting out a sad sigh I continued, "As you can see by all the bruises it was because of them. That's until one of them bullies took it too far and I fell from the sky and into the Forest."

I felt something warm beside to see Trixie hugging my right arm. She started to sob quietly making my shirt wet. After a few minutes she let go and said, "Sorry for that, it's just that I never knew how bad one hooman's life can be."

"Human, and humans on earth are like that anyways."

"Wait, so your world is full of violence?"

"Unfortunately yes, my world is full of war caused by stupid reasons that shouldn't be problems like racism, it shouldn't matter whether your whitle or black."

I yawned which was when I realized how late it was getting. "Well, I"m going to sleep now, you should probably get going yourself". Giving a smile at her but saw sadness on her face.

"Trixie has nowhere to go now." Trixie then went on to sobbing. "Woah, Whoa what's the matter with you?"

"An ursa minor destroyed my wagon when it was rampaging into town.

"The mythological bear?" Remembering the greek mythology from school. She nodded in response. "So what was an Ursa Minor doing there anyways."

"These two dimwitted colts brought it there from this forest." 'This forest??? I should probably run out of here.'

"So you didn't ask anyo- er anypony for help?"

"Well Trixie was going to but this unicorn made me come here." Trixie then burrowed her eyebrows to this.

"This unicorn made you?" I asked in confusion. "Well no but she humiliated me so I came here to avoid her.

"That's weird, a unicorn humiliated me and I came here too." She looked at me with her eyes wide open. "Ookay who made a fool out of you then?"

"Twilight Sparkle." I growled. She then gasped at my response then said, "That's the same pony who humiliated me!"

I sat their frozen by her response. 'This Twilight Sparkle did the same to her??' "So that's why you came in the forest. She nodded and continued to talk:

"Trixie has worked her whole life as a magician, but now after what happened in Ponyville word will get around in Equestria and everypony will laugh at me.

'Damn, she has it worse than me' "Well at least you weren't humiliated in public, and pansted in front of everyo- everypony. Now when everypony hears about the "new creature" being humiliated from a pony." I waid trying to make her situation sound better than mine.

"Well Trixie guesses that by tomorrow we would be the laughing stock of Equestria".

I yawned again seeing how our conversation took longer than I expected. "Well it's getting pretty late so see you whenever we meet again. I said putting the fire out and making my way back to the camp I was in yesterday

"Wait!" I turned around seeing Trixie running over to my side. "Trixie doesn't want to stay in the forest alone". She looked at the ground, "May Trixie come with you?" she said softly.

I looked at her seeing her eyes. 'Damn puppy eyes makes it hard not to say no.' I gave her a smile saying yes. She gave a smile in return so I walked to the direction where my little camp was. "By the way I never got your name and Trixie wishes not to refer to you as hooman."

"Human, and the names Hawk." I said spotting the camp up ahead. "My name is Trixie Lulamoon". I then gave her a confused glare, "Yeah I know you said it like 10 times already.

"Oh right." she said looking away blushing.

"This is the place where I spended my first night here."

"Yeah I saw you here yesterday." she said when I froze. "Uh so you were watching me sleep?" I said still weirded out. Her eyes went as wide as plates before she blushed to what she said.

"Yess?"

I chuckled as I layed down at the cave I found earlier yesterday. Trixie then sat down a few feet beside me.

"Goodnight Trixie"

"Goodnight Hawk"

I then drifted off to my slumber once more....

[Dreamscape]

I got up finding myself once more in my shed. 'Guess It was all a dream But it felt so real. Stepping oit of my shed is where I saw my parents standing there.

"Mom, Dad!!!!"

When I tried to hug them they pushed me out of the way. "You are not our son. You are the loner who gets beaten all the time."

"Our son would never let people push him around."

I looked at them with tears coming down my eyes. "Since we know you like getting beaten all the time we invited someone who would be glad to give it to you."

My parents then stepped out of the way revealing Butch with a smile on his face while cracking his knuckles. "Well, well look who it is!"

I tried running away when I couldn't moving. My parents were holding my arms making sure I wouldn't escape. "Not this time." my parents said while telling Butch to beat me.

"No!" I shouted as Butch stood in front of me. Throwing his fist at me before everything went black.

[Morning]

I opened my eyes feeling tears and sweat on my face. 'What a nightmare' I thought trying to sit up but couldn't. I felt pressure on my chest, opening my eyes clearly is when I found Trixie's head on my chest and her hooves wrapped around me. Is she smiling?

'What the hell?' Attempting to stand up but failed as she wrap her hooves around me tightly nuzzling my chest. I felt like my face was on fire seeing as Trixie continued to nuzzle me.

"Trixie." No response.

"Trixie." Still no response.

"Trixie!" Seeing her eyes slowly opening before she looked at me confused. Then she looked at the situation she was in before her eyes went wide. She quickly got up and went to the other side of the cave.

"Trixie." I said calmly as she continued to look at the ground. "Yes?"

"Mind telling me why you were sleeping on me?" I said grinning like a mad man as she blushed.

"I-it wa-as uh, cold! Yeah I was cold!" stammered Trixie. Looking at Trixie I saw something that caught my eye.

"What about your cape there?" I said pointing at the cape on the ground. Trixie's face was as red as a tomato. I stood there waiting for an answer.

"Well?"

[Trixie's POV]

'No! Hawk's on to me now!' Then an idea pops into my head. "Hey what's that over there?" I asked pointing my hoof behind him. As he turned around I grabbed my cape and shoved it in the mud quickly bringing it back on the ground.

"Oh I guess it's g-gone now hehe."

"Still haven't answered my question." Hawk said crossing his arms.

"Well you see Trixie's c-cape is dirty on the inside." I said revealing the now muddy side of my cape.

Hawk look at me suspiciously before his face softened up. "Oh well I guess that's alright. Let's get your cape washed up by a stream nearby".

"No!"

Hawk then looked at me like I'm a madmare. Feeling my face heat up I spoke up, "I-I mean we should probably go to a town instead."

"Well I guess that makes since, what's the closest town here other than Ponyville. I scowled when I heard Ponyville. "Well last time Trixie checked Fillydelphia was southwest from here."

"Thats where were heading than." Hawk then picked up my hat that was also on the floor and looked inside it. Then he started walking over my to my direction. 'Ohmygosh Ohmygosh what's he doing?" Looking at him I saw that he was putting my hat back on. I felt a warm feeling as he was adjusting my hat.

I closed my eyes and hummed while he was doing so. "So, lets get going then." Snapping out of my trance I nodded in agreement. 'What's the matter with you Trixie? Your a pony and he's a human.

Walking to Fillydelphia I started to make out Hawk's features by the sunlight. He had jet black hair, he stood about 6ft 1, and he had golden eyes. I could help but stare at his eyes until I tripped and fell on the ground.

"Trixie, are you alright?" Hawk asked in concern.

"Yeah I think so." I tried to stand back up until I felt pain on my hoof. "Ow"

"Is your hoof alright?" I tried to stand up a second time but still no luck. I looked back at him and shook my head. I yelped as I felt something under me to see Hawk picking me up and we began walking. I closed my eyes as I let out a happy sigh by the warm feeling. Hawk looking back down at me and smiled. 'What's is up with you Trixie!? Are you falling for human??? But it feels so right.'

I shook my head 'You just met the guy Trixie! But he's the first who actually cares about you. The first to look after you even though he just met you too'

The warmth of his arms got the best of me. I felt my eyes closing, trying to stay awake but the feeling made me feel safe. With that I drifted off to sleep.

[Hawk's POV]

'Well guess I'm carrying a pony to Fillydelphia.' I sighed and exhaustion wondering when were getting there. I suddenly heard light snores coming from my arms. I smiled seeing how comfortable Trixie seems to be in my hold.

Walking southwest to this Fillydelphia. 'Hehe horse puns.' For what seemed like hours walking down the path for Fillydelphia I could start to see a town up ahead.

'Finally' Looking down I see Trixie still sleeping soundly in my arms.

"Trixie." No response

"Trixie." I said while shaking my arm slightly. All I get in response is a low groan.

I started to skake my arms faster attempting to wake up Trixie. She let out an unhappy noise and wrapped her hooves tightly on my arms.

'Jesus, not again. Why is she so affectionate to me?'

Then hearing a happy sigh I decided to see If this trick worked on ponies. Lifting my right hand up to her head I proceeded to scratching the back of her ear. She let out a moan and her hoof started to thump in a rhythm.

Going to the next step of my plan I immediately stopped. I saw her head being lifted up and looking up at me.

"Why did you stop?" Trixie said a little dazed.

"Because were here." I said pointing a figure at the direction of Fillydelphia. She seemed disappointed abojt our arrival but isn't this where she wanted to go?

"Does your hoof still hurt?" I said while looking at her injured hoof.

"Yes!" She quickly responded while I gave her a glare. Her cheeks started to go red again avoiding eye contact with me.

I shrugged and we went forward to Fillydelphia.

[At Fillydelphia]

As soon as we arrived there I expected to see ponies rush to their homes but all they did was stare at us. "Maybe we should go to the hospital to get your hoof checked out so I won't have to carry you in my arms. She seemed rather disappointed but nodded.

I looked around the town and spotted the hospital 6 blocks down.

Walking down to the hospital was a mistake. I kept hearing laughts and ponies kept pointed at us or they would just stare. 'Shit! I should've listen to Trixie yesterday.'

Well Trixie guesses that by tomorrow we would be the laughing stock of Equestria

I quickly sped up my pace avoiding those ponies. Trixie wasn't doing so good either. She tried hiding under her hat but you can still see the rest of her body. I sighed in relief when there wasn't anyone waiting in the hospital.

But I could still hear laughing from the employees that worked there. Tears started to drop from Trixie's face so I gently storked her mane trying to calm her down.

That's when one of the doctors walked to us.

"Ma'am, you do know that this is a hospital not veterinarian clinic. I shot him a glare which in return he took a few steps back. "Hawk stop" Trixie said wiping the remaining tears from her face.

"I think I sprained my hoof earlier and we came here to get it checked." The doctor looked at us and began laughing, "You two came here together? The two most humiliated pony and... whatever your suppose to be here?"

"Listen here Doc." I said grabbing his neck. "You're going to check her hoof and help her out without laughing at us or I'll rip your heart out and feed it to the lions... wherever they live." I growled letting go off his neck.

I slowly nodded with his eyes wide open and moved us to the clinic room.

After the visit to the hospital we set out to find a cleaner for Trixie's cape. "Don't you think you went to far with the doctor?" Trixie said limping as we walked.

"No I don't think I went too far, if I didn't say that the doctor would've just kept laughing and never would've checked your hoof." She nodded in agreement.

"By the way is your hoof feeling any better?" I asked pointing at her hoof.

"Yes Trixie will do just fine."

"Are you sure? I could carry you if it still hurts. I said putting my arms out wide for her. She quickly hopped on my arms squirming to get comfortable. I chuckled as I helped her get in the position she wants to be in.

"So where can we get your cape cleaned anyways?"

"There should be a building somewhere around the town."

[3 hours Later]

"Trixie we've been searching Fillydelphia for three hours, I don't think we'll ever find it."

"We could ask for directions from the townponies."

"But what If their like the doctor from earlier?" I asked not wanting to threaten another pony.

"Relax, Trixie will do the talking this time."

I stood there watching as she approached a male pony limping. Then I saw him push her on the ground and he laughed. I lost my temper right their and approached fast as lightning. Seeing him tremble in fear made me chuckle, "What? Not the big guy anymore are you?" I said manically laughing at him.

He then proceeded to run but I grabbed him by his tail. "Where do you think your going?" I asked as he was trying to break free. Grabbing his neck I walked over to where Trixie was. "Your going to apologize to my friend for pushing her on the ground!"

"No!" He said so I tightened my grip on his neck.

"Alright, alright I'm sorry...

"Say it louder!!" I yelled making him cry.

"I-I'm So-orry." I let go of him as he curled into a ball and cried for his mommy. Satisfied I walked over Trixie to see If she was okay.

"Trixie thanks you for teaching the stallion a lesson." Trixie says with a smile. Suddenly I heard my stomack growling. "Have any money for food?" I asked.

"I have a few bits left." she said pulling out 4 golden coins. "Bits are the form of currency here?" She nodded and pointed a hoof to a market nearby.

We walked to tbe market and bought 2 apples and a carrot. Thanks to my convicing we got that carrot. We found a spot at a nearby park. We decided to eat there so we walked to the park. Apparently their were children there so their parents took them and left.

"Long day huh?" I asked taking a bite out of my apple. She nodded and we sat there in silence enjoying each others company until we heard yelling.

"There they are! The gay creature and the liar!"

"Get them out of our fine town!"

'Fucking shit! Word gets around pretty quick.' I grabbed Trixie and ran as fast as I could back to the only safe place we can be, In the forest.

When we got to the forest I could hear Trixie crying. "Hey, what's wrong Trixie?" I asked in concern.

"Every town in Equestria knows who we are now! We can't even relax in the park for a few minutes!" She said while sobbing in my chest.

I gently stroked her mane, "There, there at least we still got each other right?" Trixie then looked at me for a few minutes until she wrapped her hooves around my neck and nuzzling the back of my head. Hearing her snoring I gently placed her on the ground and looked for a sign of water.

Hearing it north from us I quietly made my way there and put Trixie's cape in the water scrubbing it with my hands. Satisfied with the condition I walked back to Trixie who was sound asleep.

I leaned against a log I found and stared at the night sky thinking, 'what's next for me?'
My thoughts were interrupted by the former magician who sounded like she was having a nightmare. "No Hawk don't leave me! Please stay with me!" I sat there shocked by Trixie's sudden outburst.

'She cares about you man! The first one in years.'

Seeing tears from her I decided what I should do. Pulling her beside me she immediately wrapped her hooves tightly around my body. She opened her eyes and looked at me. I only nodded in approval before she fell back asleep with a smile.

Seeing this unicorn in distress made me angry. 'How could she just do that to Trixie and not even help her!' Our humiliation caused by her! Everyone laughing and kicking us out. All because of her!'

Only one thought came to my mind. 'You'll pay for this Twilight Sparkle!'

[Twilight's POV]

"Spike!"

"Twilight it's the middle of the night! Shouldn't you be asleep?"

"Yes but I couldn't sleep knowing what I did too two lives.". Spike looked at me in confusion, "Wait so you ruined two lives all by yourself?" I nodded before he shook his head.

"That's why I need you to take a letter." He pulled pulled out paper and a pen.

Dear Princess Celestia,

Yesterday I did something terrible. I humiliated a pony and a unknown creature and possibly ruined their lives. Feeling bad for what I did I request that you bring some royal guards to find them. Last I saw them they ran off to the Everfree Forest. When they find them tell the guards to bring them to Ponyville so I can apologize.

From your faithful student,
Twilight Sparkle
