I ask that you do not put nasty comments or anything like that. Abuse and rape is nothing to joke about it's taken a lot to post this because i still have nightmares and flashbacks about it. I am so happy that Silver found me and saved me. again please be respectful in the comments thank you
Abuse
Fable trotted down the streets of Canterlot happily humming to herself as she looked around at the shops and restaurants. “A lot more busy then our little town I’ll have to ask Cadence how she got used to it.”
Having just moved to Canterlot to be closer to her new Coltfriend and best friend.But today she was on her way to afternoon tea with Cadence and Celestia. She was already nervous about spending time with Celestia, and was going over in her head what questions she would ask; and happy that she would be able to see her Colt Friend, Eclipse Shield.
“Faby.” that name made her stop dead as a cold shiver raced through her body, paralyzing her with fear as she recognized the pony’s voice.
She turned around and saw a burly looking unicorn stallion with a sandy coat and blue eyes with a black punkish looking mane with a boxing glove cutie mark. His front hooves were bandaged.
“Kn…Knock Out?” she stuttered as she slowly began to back away from the stallion, her tail cowering behind her.
He smirked and proudly walked towards her, with his head held high. “So this is where you went and you didn’t even bother to tell me you left. I had just finished my boxing finals, when I heard you left and no pony knew where you went.”
“Knock Out leave me alone. We aren’t together anymore I told you I was done….
A golden aura formed around Fable’s neck and began to choke her, before slamming her against the wall of one of the shops. “Now, now, you know better then to talk back to me. Now assume the position! I’ve missed that tight flank of yours.” He calmly ordered as he continued to strangle her with his magic.
“As soon as we get home your punishment is going to be a lot worse.”
Fable’s eyes began to tear up, thinking he would kill her this time. Knock Out walked behind her. Using his magic shoved her face into the dirt and lifted her tail ready to mount her.
“STOP RIGHT THERE!” a voice shouted as Fable heard somepony buck Knock out off her and picked her up she looked up into Eclipse Shield’s soft green eyes she smiled.
“Back off Guard! My mare just disrespected me so I needed to put her in her place.” He shouted calmly, though you could hear the venom through his words.
Eclipse cracked his neck and drew his sword, “This is my marefriend and if you dare try to hurt her, you’ll have to deal with me.”
Knock Out laughed “You must be mistaken….
“Don’t try to talk your way out of this Knock out.” A familiar sounding voice said flatly as Fable looked behind Eclipse and saw both Princess’s Cadence and Celestia along with few more guards standing there, holding their weapons at the ready.
Knock Out glared at Eclipse, “ Keep that whore on a tight leash.” He shouted and stormed off fuming.
Eclipse helped Fable into Celestia’s study as Celestia and Cadence followed and closed the door. “Who was that Cadence?” he asked still angry that a colt dared to hurt his marefriend.
“That was Knock Out. He’s a unicorn from our town and he’s Fable’s ex-Coltfriend.” she answered.
“Why did he follow her here?” asked Celestia worry in her voice as she looked at the Fable’s still shaking form.
“More than likely he’s still delusional.” she said
“Delusional?” asked Celestia
“He was super controlling of Fable. She couldn’t do anything or talk to anypony without his approval. ” answered Cadence.
Fable was shaking in Eclipse’s hooves as he slowly ran his hoof through her mane, trying to calm her.
“Fable are you alright?” Celestia wondered as she put a wing around the two of them.
The damns broke as the tears she was fighting back poured down her cheeks, onto the fur of his neck.
“Cadence I need to tell you …. something. Knock Out…he.. didn’t just control me…… he …. abused me.” she said in between sobs as she tried to bury her muzzle into his neck.
All of the color drained from her face “What do you mean abused?”
Fable sniffled “He would use his magic and hooves to hurt me. Then use his magic to strangle me.”
“So all those times you had bruises and claimed you fell it was because he had hit you.” Color rapidly returning to her face as her scowl began to grow.
Holding back the tears Fable nodded.
Eclipse stamped his hooves on the floor as he set Fable on the small bed and turned to Celestia, “Let me go after this stallion, this trash. I’ll take care of him!”
“Eclipse, Knock Out has extensive training being a boxer, he is well versed in hoof-to-hoof combat.”
“I don’t care Cadence! Any stallion that lays a hoof on a mare like that desires to be put in prison. No deserves to be put in the ground.”
Knowing his anger, he wasn’t joking. She normally would be against the excessive use of violence, but in this case she would make an exception but another thought came to mind. “I have a better idea. Fable why don’t you come work at the Royal library, reading stories to the fillies and colts at my school. There you will be safe, within the castle walls and will constantly have guards posted outside.”
Fable’s eyes shot open in surprise, “Work…in the library? But… your highness that’s such an honor. But where would I live..I mean…”
Celestia chuckled, “Now now, nothing to worry about. You will be given one of the empty rooms here in the castle. A pair of my finest guards will be outside your door, and will accompany you where ever you go.” She smiled, as she leaned down and winked at Fable, “Let me have a word with your landlord, I’ll handle it.”
Fable smiled and nodded “Thank you so much Princess.”
“It’s no trouble at all I’m sorry you had to go though an ordeal like that. Thankfully Eclipse’s protege saw what was happening and alerted us.” a knock on the door interrupted them,as a young white unicorn stallion with a tri-blue mane walked in and immediately saluted Eclipse.
“Ah Shining Armor. Come to check on Fable? It is thanks to you that she is safe after all.” The captain smiled and returned the salute.
He lowered his hoof and stood at attention as he looked at his superior, “Sir. Just doing my duty sir.”
“At ease Shining, Fable is alright now.”
Fable smiled “Thank you so much Shining Armor, if you hadn’t gone for help, I don’t know what would have happened.”
Later that night Fable was unpacking in her new room and rearranging the room to her liking when she heard a knock on her door. She opened the door, and there stood Eclipse smiling at her.
“We got him he won’t be bothering you anymore, he put up a hell of a fight. I’ll give him that, but his boxing had nothing on my training.”
He chuckled but saw Fable was looking at her hooves with a sad look on her muzzle.
“What’s wrong? Isn’t this good news?”
“It is. I just can’t believe it’s over. Knock Out had so much control over me for so long. It just feels like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. It just doesn’t seem real.”
Eclipse placed his hoof under Fable’s chin “I will never let anypony hurt you ever again. You are safe now, don’t ever forget that.” she smiled and embraced him.
“ I’ll protect you no matter what Nature because I love you. I look forward to the day that you awake.” Eclipse thought as his changeling eyes flashed while he embraced the form that his one true love was sleeping deep inside her. Waiting for the day that her prince awakens her.
