The Second ChanceView OnlineThe Second ChanceThe Second ChanceAuthor's Note This story is not to be taken seriously. You have been warned. The Second Chance It has been over ten years since my Mom and Dad got a divorce. Over seven years since Mom married Juel and over three years since Dad married Colleen. It has been six years since my little sister on my Mom’s side has been born, her name, Mercedes. It has been 2 years since my little brother Luke was born and thirteen months since Lilyann was born. They are both on my Dad’s side of the family. It has been about five months since my brother had to return to college. 3 years since I have discovered My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. I am a 15 year old Caucasian male whose name is Danny. Danny Thorn to be exact. I am wearing a red T-Shirt with Deadpool and the words ‘MAXIMUM EFFORT’ at the top. I have blue jean pants on that are missing a few patches here and there. I currently have a pair of shades on and a baseball cap with the Flash symbol on it. I don't even know the brand of my shoes since the logo had faded away long ago. Right now I'm pushing a lawn mower while listening to a MLP parody of the Imagine Dragons song ‘Demons' but the parody is called . Really I'm lucky enough to have a phone at all. My Dad is a fucking cheapskate when it doesn't involve himself. He has the ‘On Demand’ Xfinity package as well as a Netflix account. And both have passcodes that I don't know. He is very harsh when it comes to punishments and when he doesn't get his way, he makes it his way. I can't count the amount of times he has made Colleen cry from him yelling at her. I feel bad for anyone that has to put up with him. I remember one time that he hit a door so hard it made a hole. He's quite the tall man but he has let himself go. 6 feet and 4 inches. Over 240 pounds. I sure that at one point he had a six pack but now it's just… gut. He was in the navy but never saw much action. He mostly went into the army, just for the benefits in the long run. Now he climbs cell phone/ radio towers and fixes them. Makes a decent amount of money, though it's barely enough to keep us afloat. Colleen works at Nasa and sometimes goes to Greenland to help check out the ozone layer. My Mom works at Soft Stuff Distributors and Juel is a Forklift Mechanic. My brother Dylan is going to college for a degree in game coding. Both my Dad and Mom are fairly tall but I think I'm gonna be taller than both of them. Though I am a bit underweight for my age. I blame my fast metabolism though. With me being a little over six feet tall at the age of fifteen, it gives me a good amount of perks. Though, not all things are good. Last year I had to go into surgery because I had a rare disease called, pectus excavatum. Basically, I had a huge dent in my chest. A little over 2 inches deep I think it was. It had gotten so bad though, it moved my heart. So about two weeks after school was done, I was taken to the hospital and they placed a bar so that my chest was popped back out again. The said in three years they would have to take it out. So from there I ate more to gain some more weight and worked out. I have gotten a decently toned body for my efforts. I have made a decent amount of money by mowing lawns as I charge depending on the size of the lawn. Small ranges from 7 to 10 dollars. Medium ranges from 11 to 15 dollars. And Large ranges from 16 to 20 dollars. I have just finished mowing the lawn I was currently working on. It was a medium-sized yard and decided to charge 14 dollars. I got my money, put the mower in the wagon attached to my bike and went home. When I got home I put the mower away and detached the wagon from my bike. I went inside a got a glass of water. I downed it no problem and started to clean the dishes. Once done with that I went to take a shower since I smelled of sweat and yard clippings. I didn't have to worry about anyone being home tonight since Dad had to stay in a hotel cause the work sight was so far away. Colleen was out on a business trip and my younger siblings were at Colleen’s parents house. We didn't have school today due to it being a holiday or special occasion of some sort. Never payed attention to it really. I got my clothes ready and then took off my current clothes. I climbed into the shower and let the warm water run over my body. I got clean and washed off. I turned off the water and climbed out of the tub. The house had two small bathrooms and even though they both had showers, only one could be on at a time. I put on my PJ’s and went downstairs to make dinner. I decided on a grilled cheese and some Ramen soup. (I'll skip forward a little bit as too not bore you with my day to day routine.) As I was getting into bed after playing some Fallout 4 on the Xbox One S. I looked at my calendar and noticed that tomorrow was my birthday. It was also the day that my Dad comes back home. I groaned in annoyance and turned to my bed. I got under the silver blank and cuddled my two plushies. I had an Alicorn Twilight Sparkle Plush and a Tempest Shadow Plush as well. I really wanted a Life Size Celestia Plushie though. That why I was saving up my money so I could buy one from the guys that made it. I still had some money leftover from Christmas and my ‘Assassin’s Creed Origins’ Wallet was now filled with over 400 dollars. I was proud of myself since the last time I had 400 dollars was when I was seven years old. Most of it was in change. That piggy bank weighed a ton! Even Juel was amazed at how much it weighed at the time. Why I was saving up so much money at the time? I wanted to buy a comfy rocking chair with a rocking footstool. But ended up buying video games and the like. Anyway, after I got nice and snug with my plushies, I slowly drifted off to Luna’s realm. That night was horrible to say the least. I had nightmare after nightmare and I couldn't even wake up from one nightmare before the next began. Most of them were altered memories. The rest were normal memories but they could still be called nightmares. When I finally did wake up, it was morning and I had to get ready for school. My upper half was drenched in sweat so I shed that shirt in favor for a plaid T-shirt. It was mainly a dark blue with white criss cross patterns all over it. I switched out my sweat filled PJ bottoms and put on some khakis. I quickly made my Lunch, fed the animals, and ate breakfast. By time I was done with all of that it was time to go. I opened the back gate and wheeled my bike to the side of the couch. I closed the gate back up and locked the front door. I rode my bike the quarter mile it took me to get to school. Though I did accidentally turned my bike too tight and I ended up scraping my leg. I shook off the pain and sped to school. Once at the place where you lock up your bikes, I did exactly that and quickly walked to class. While I was going quickly to my class, I was by no means anywhere near late. I just like to be there early. Since today was an A day, I had my favourite classes today. In order, they were English, Government, Math, and Coping Skills. I walked into class but oddly everyone ignored me. Even the one or two friends I had in that class. I even thought that one of the girls had a crush on me for a little but chalked it up to her being nicer than other students. Even she ignored me. I didn't care that much since I was used to it. What really dampened my mood was that I forgot we had a test today. The rest of my day was similar to that of 1st period. Walk in, sit down, be ignored and do my work. It was the final class of the day before I even knew it. This was why I liked my A day's more than my B days. I walked in to a mostly empty classroom that had only two or three students in there already. I had come to know most of the class as my friends and even told them that I write stories. Never told exactly what though. I found it extremely ironic since one of the kids was actually named AJ or otherwise known as Alexander James. Who knew? The class was strangely uneventful. Whenever that class was in session something always happens. When I was going home I was a bit sad actually. While I wasn't that kid who always wanted attention. It was nice to actually be noticed on your birthday. I even said Happy Birthday to random kids I didn't even know when it was their birthday. While I didn't tell anyone this, not even my parents and they didn't know. I was actually a bit depressed when I was alone and not distracted. Whether it be games or writing. MLP really helped a lot in that aspect. While I was a closet Brony by all means, I knew one friend that was apparently a Brony too. I wasn't a Brony at the time we met but I told him I was when we were going to MineCon™. Me and him were both surprised for different reasons. Me was that he was a Brony and him thinking that I hated that kind of stuff since I put a facade to wade off any suspicions. I didn't have my Plushie at the time either. Anywho, when I got home I was hungry again and made a small snack. Now, I had a sweet tooth that could rival Pinkie, I had one sugary weakness, Frosting. Anything without frosting and I'm good. Add a cupcake worth of frosting and I have a horrible stomach ache. That's why I liked brownies more than anything. So I grabbed a brownie from a plate that was in the fridge and ate it. I then sat at my desk and quickly finished my homework. It was fairly easy and took almost no time at all. Once done I set out to do what little chores I had. Mainly cleaning that kitchen and vacuuming. When done with the vacuuming there was a knock on the door. I walked over to see a huge brown box that bad no special tape on it. I looked out the window to see a guy walking away to a FedEx truck. I opened the door and looked around the box. On top was a letter that had my address. I became excited as I tried moving the box inside. Only to find out that it wouldn't fit. I then moved it to the back and placed it by the sliding glass door. Still not big enough. “How the hell do I bring you inside?” I asked the box. I obviously got no response. I sighed and started to open the box. When I opened it I got the surprise of my life to see a Giant Celestia Plushie. It was actually a bit smaller than me but I knew that if I actually went to Equestria that Celestia would be a little bit taller than me. Not counting her horn. I quickly got the Celestia Plush out of the box and inside before anyone saw. I rushed to my room with the plush in my arms and put it on my bed. I went downstairs and looked inside the box again. There was a letter in it. “To whom it may concern, send me my money through this letter. $400 should be enough to cover expenses.” The letter read. I went upstairs, fished out my money and put it in the envelope. I ran outside and put it in the mailbox. Running back inside I jumped on my bed and big spooned the Celestia Plush. After I cuddled it a bit I got an idea. I got up and removed the large gold colored necklace. I put it on myself and spoke like I was speaking to a crowd. “From henceforth, I declared that at least once a day, BlueBlood shall be kicked in his flank.” I laughed at my own joke but my joy was smashed when I heard a car door slam. I looked out my window and saw that dad was home. I covered the plush with my blankets and hurried downstairs to unlock the door. When I opened it I was instantly bombarded with Dad's rage. He pushed me away from the door where I tripped over the baby gate and fell on my back. I tried to get up but he stepped on top of my leg with his boot. I thought I heard a bone crack. I was immediately picked up and shoved upstairs. Once I was in his room he took off his belt and whipped me with it. Wouldn't be so bad if he didn't have a belt that had a huge ass belt buckle. My eyes started to tear up in pain and confusion when he stopped and shoved me into my room. He shut the door and I heard him block it with something. I moved over to my Celestia Plush and cuddled it along with my other Plushies. I began to openly cry into the fake Celestia’s coat, making it become damp. I heard something outside and saw that he moved the metal campfire into the front yard. He took a black box which I recognized as my enderhead that was apparently filled with my MLP comics and stuff I got from MineCon™. Even my Diamond Sword with Jeromeasf's signature on it was in there. I then knew what he was going to do. He was going to burn all my stuff. I watched with horror as he lit it up and began to burn it. He was also stupid since my door opened inwards. I moved my dressers so they were blocking the door. I then crawled back into bed and cuddled my plushies once more. I fell asleep soon afterwards. (Luna Pov.) I gasped as I returned from the dream realm. My cheeks were stained with tears from the horrible nightmare that I had witnessed but wasn't able to do anything about. It was of a young creature being mercilessly tormented and beaten by what appeared to be the creature’s father. I was enraged at the father and felt a great sorrow for the young one. That wasn't even the worst part. When one nightmare ended another began. I felt the energy and knew that it was a memory nightmare. The worst of their kind. It tweaked the nightmare so it was worse than what the bad memory already was. I could still hear the screams of pain that he gave off. I didn't noticed but I had begun to cry again. Soon after my sister teleported into my room with a worried look on her muzzle. “Luna!? Is everyth-” I cut her off by hugging her tightly. She said no more and return the hug to attempt to calm me down. “Shh, it's alright little sister, it's okay.” She whispered comfortingly into my ear. I removed myself from her embraced and faced my sister. “No! It is not okay dear sister! That young creature has practically tortured by his own father! How can such a cruel being do that to their own flesh and blood!?” I all but screamed at her. I broke down again and she began to run her hoof down my mane. After what felt like an hour I had stopped crying. I removed myself from her embrace and she asked. “Luna, I want you to tell me everything about what happened last night.” (One hour later) “Then the young one was finally able to wake up.” I finished my telling of the nightmares I saw. My sister looked enraged at the father but was mixed with sorrow for the young one. “Sister, we must do something to help this young one.” I have to admit, I always had a soft spot for foals and I knew that niece Cadence and Sister Tia knew that as well. “I agree with you Luna, but what could we do? We can not simply bring him here.” After Tia had finished saying that I instantly got an idea. “What if we could Sister! Maybe Discord knows a way to do so!” My head began to fill with the ideas of what I could do with the young creature if he was here. ‘Perhaps he may want to snuggle with me! Nor would he be afraid to at least talk with me like a normal pony and not fear me!’ “I don't know Luna, I know you want to help this creature you saw but I don't think that ripping him from his friends and other family is a good idea. That and you have to imagine what our ponies might think. I know the ponies of Canterlot Nobility will react badly as they do to anything, but what about Ponyville, Manehatten, Appleloosa, other cities and towns like that.” “I know about them sister and I was not simply going to foal nap it. Next time it sleeps I would attempt to enter it's dream and ask if it would like to leave it's world and be in ours. Please Tia!” I finished with my irresistible pleading eyes. She sighed and said. “Fine, but I think we should bring the Elements, Cadence and Shining and possibly Starlight and Tempest. If this thing turns out to be a trick I want to be ready.” Celestia said before giving me one last hug. I returned said hug with new found joy. I then let out a yawn and said. “Well, I best get to sleep for tonight. I want to be well rested when I meet the being.” Celestia nodded before ending the hug and walking out of the room. I got in my bed and got comfortable. Only to be stopped by my grumbling stomach. I reluctantly went to the dining hall to eat before going to bed. (Hours later) I slowly woke up and then realised I needed to lower the moon. I quickly did so and then bounded down the hallway, completely foregoing my jewelry. I ran into the throne room to see Twilight Sparkle and her friends as well as my niece and nephew-in-law. Discord was among those present. “Alright what's going on?” Discord actually asked in a serious tone which surprised all of us. “Discord? Is that you? If so this is very strange. Your actually being… serious about something.” I said with mock shock. This made some of our guests snort in laughter. Discord just rolled his eyes and said. “Yeah, well, I'm tired and nopony has told me what's going on!” Discord exclaimed. This earned me a questioningly look from Twilight. “Actually, I was wondering about that too, all Princess Celestia told us in the letter was to come to the castle because you wanted to ask us something.” This made all eyes turn toward me. I suddenly got nervous from all the sudden attention. “Um, yes, well, you see.” I cleared my throat before continuing. “Last night in the dream realm I was going through the dreams when a nightmare caught my attention. It was of a young creature, one never before seen on Equus. And I think from previous reports from Twilight Sparkle, it was a human. But what was strange was that it didn't look like anything from the world Twilight visited. “It was very tall and had medium length chocolate brown hair. The ends ended up in a slight curl. It was a… slightly tannish color. It had clothes covering most of its body. Anyways, in it's nightmares, he was being beaten or tormented by its own father. What made it worse was that it was having a specific type of nightmare. “A memory Nightmare, a nightmare that changes bad memories and makes them worse. But when one nightmare ended another began. Throughout the entire night I was forced to watch. I couldn't go near the dream without the nightmare energies pushing me away. “So I wanted to bring the creature here. And no I am not going to make it come here against its own will. I am going to ask it before taking action. Discord, when I find the dream, I want you to open a portal in the creatures bedroom so that it may come here. Leave it open as long as you can before closing it.” “Hmm, No.” Discord said half-heartedly. Fluttershy stared at him with shock and anger. “Discord! This creature may be suffering and you won't even try to help it! Shame on you!” Fluttershy said using ‘The Stare’. And Discord got the full force of it. “A-alright, I-I'll do it. Just please stop doing that!” He said slightly whimpering. Fluttershy nodded and turned back to me. “Alright Princess Luna, but why are we here?” Asked Rainbow Dash. My sister then stepped up. “You are all here incase this creature was playing a trick on my sister. If it was then we will need to rather force it back into the portal or use the elements on it.” She said with a firm tone. With that I closed my eyes and sent my mind to the dream realm. When I got there I looked for the dreamer again and quickly found it. There was more nightmare energy then before but I persisted this time to help the poor creature. I used my dream magic to blast away the nightmare energy. When I made sure to clear it all away I entered the dream. (Danny Pov.) All of a sudden my nightmare was gone and replaced with a field with a starry sky and a huge moon. The silhouette of a unicorn appeared on the moon before leaving it and a figure started to fly towards me at a fast speed. I had to squint my eyes too look closer but I was soon tackled by the dark blue blur. I didn't feel anything but I could hear it. “Oh my Celestia are you okay!? I wasn't too late was I?” I've heard that voice before. But where? My eyes were currently closed. So I slowly opened them too see… “PRINCESS LUNA!” I yelled in surprise. “Holy shit this has to be a dream, this is way too good to be true.” I said to myself because I didn't expect an answer. “I do not know how you know my name but while this is a dream, I can assure you that I am not supposed to be here. Now, I have come here to ask you a question. If you want, do you wish to leave your world, and come join mine?” I was speechless. This wasn't dream Luna, this was real Luna, the Luna from the show, the Luna that lives in a real Equestria. And she just asked if I wanted to live there. I was conflicted between leaving my world because of my friends and… other family then my Dad. While my friends would think I'm dead or ran away, my family would think I've finally cracked from Dad and committed suicide. But when no body is found they would send out a search team for me. When I wouldn't be found they would think I'm dead. That and I bet Dad would be happy to see I'm gone cause he most likely thinks I'm nothing but a waste of space. I layed there and contemplated what to do while absentmindedly petting Luna. I heard her sigh in bliss as I worked my magic on her ears. Then my head roamed to my brother. What did he say that one time? Oh right, ‘Follow your own path, because you only live once.’ My brother… Then my head roamed back to images of the show and all the ponies in them. “Luna. I think I've made my decision.” She looked up at me with a cute curious stare. “I-... I want to go to Equestria.” I could tell that she really liked my answer because she ‘Squeed' in happiness just like the show. “Joy! We can not wait to show you to my sister and our friends!” “Umm, How is this supposed to work? Do you like make a portal and I just jump through?” She nodded rapidly and said. “Yes that is exactly what you are going to do. And if you want you can bring some of your things with you. I will be waiting. Goodbye creature! See you again soon!” And with that Luna disappeared and I suddenly woke up. I looked around my room and didn't see a portal. I sighed and whispered to myself. “I knew it was too good to be-” I was cut off by a white portal opening on my wall. I stared at it a little before quickly hoping out of bed and grabbing my things and throwing them in a duffle bag. Once I had a few sets of clothes and all of my tablets and 3DS with a little backpack that held all the games, I slid the big strap across my body. I grabbed some books that I got from school and put it in my backpack. I slid that on and then grabbed my phone, some gum, but paused as I looked at my Plushies. I ended up on leaving them behind. I made my way over to the portal and yelled out. “YOLO!” Before dashing through. The sensation of going through a portal is a weird one, I will tell you that. I could never describe it to anyone. Once I was through I tripped on my own shoe and I fell face forward onto a hard marble floor. “Oh shite!” Was what I yelled before hitting my head and blacking out. (Luna Pov.) That certainly was an… interesting way of making an entrance. As soon as he stepped out of the portal he tripped and fell onto the floor. I didn't see him move after that and made my way over to him. He was still breathing so I chalked it up to him being knocked unconscious. “Well that was anticlimactic.” Pinkie Pie said. I couldn't help but snort at her unintended joke. I levitated the being onto my back after taking off his bags. “Sister can you have the maids prepare a room for our otherworldly visitor? And could you make it as close to my room as possible.” I walked off without listening for a response. I made my way to my room carrying the being and levitating his belongings. Once there I placed him on my bed and his bags near the door. I watched him for a bit before having to go to the dream realm. “Good night young one, I shall ensure you have a restful sleep.” I said before opening my mind to the dream realm. (Next Morning) (Danny Pov.) I woke up to a very soft bed and a warm something that was hugging me. I slowly opened my eyes to see the awake form of Princess Luna as she cuddled me. I decided to return the cuddle so I wrapped my arms around her barrel and brought her closer. My head was now pressed up against her chest fluff. I moved a hand up to stroke her flowing mane. I could practically feel the happiness and contentment off of her. We laid there until our stomachs told us to eat. She blushed a bit but I shrugged it off. I got up and looked down to see that I still had my clothes on from yesterday. I quickly spotted my bags and made my way over to them while taking off my shirt. I took off my shoes and socks and placed them with my shirt. I left my pants on and fished through my duffel for a shirt and pair of socks. I could feel Luna's eyes on my half naked form so I decided to tease her a bit. “Like what you see?” I could almost feel the heat of her blush. While I acted normally in my mind I was freaking out. I was here, in Equestria, I was living every brony’s dream! On that note, I really hope this isn't justa dream. I got on some new socks and pulled my wheels out of the bag as well. I grabbed my shoes and slid the wheels into their slots. My new shirt was just like my old one but the colors were switched. I put them on and said to Luna. “Alright, lead the way because I have no idea what we're doing today. Hey that rhymed.” Luna giggled at my nonsense and walked out the door. I followed her and decided to have some fun. I spun around and made it so my shoes were rolling me backwards. I sped up a little so I was in front of Luna. At first she acted like that was normal. ‘3… 2… 1…’ She suddenly shook her head and looked back at me with her mouth agape. “How are you doing that?” She asked. “You see Luna.” I started to explain. “My shoes have little slots in them where I can put a specific type of wheel. That wheel then allows me to roll around. Like so.” I then did a 360 turn. “Ta da!” “Can I try?” She asked with a cute curious expression. “Sorry, I don't think that these will fit you, nor will you have the balance to stand on two legs.” She deflated a little at that. I then got an idea. “I know, how ‘bout I cook you up some eggs, my style.” That did the trick. She got very excited and clapped her hooves. “Oooh I can't wait to try them. Now follow me to the kitchen, if you want I can have the chef's help you.” I politely declined her offer. “Nah, I work best in the kitchen alone or not at all.” We conversed a bit more about our worlds and she was ecstatic at the mention of a person landing on the moon. Once we made it to the kitchens we walked inside to see some chefs and… I forgot the word for female cooks. Both were there and they were rushing around cooking the food. And ready I could see multiple health code violations. Not a single hairnet in sight. Yeah they were wearing pony aprons but that doesn't keep hair from falling into the food. Heck, there was even a griffin chef in here. The dishes were piling up in the sink. “Luna, after breakfast I want all the cooks in here so I can teach them about safety and health code.” She looked confused but nodded. We walked past the cooks and when they saw Luna they bowed to her. I heard Luna silently groan when they did. We walked through a pair of double doors into a dining room. “Nice set up. Little fancy for me but still looks good. I more of a nice but casual guy. You can tell that by my clothes.” I noticed that the others were now staring at us. I also noticed that Flurry Heart was at the table so I had to tone down my cussing. “What? Never seen a guy and a pony princess talking?” I said as I took out Luna's seat. She sat on her seat with a barely noticeable blush on her face. “Thank you Danny.” “No problem, and y'all can just call me Dan.” I said walking over to my seat. Unfortunately while I was walking over to the empty seat I had accidently banged my right shin on the table. It wouldn't have been so bad if the table wasn't so low. “SON OF A FUDGESICKLE!” I yelled in pain while grasping at my right leg. This had also been the leg that had been stepped on and had received the scrape. So the pain was immense. I sat on the floor and all the ponies were looking at me in worry. I rolled up my right pants leg to see how my shin was doing. To say it was doing badly was an understatement. I had a massive purple and black bruise and there was hard pieces of dried blood on it. “Ugh, you have got to be shizzing me. Hey can I get an ice pack or something?” When Fluttershy saw my injury she sprung into full Nurse mode. “Oh my Celestia! What happened to your leg!?” She whisper shouted as she full over to me. The others became worried and walked over to me with Cadence holding Flurry Heart. “I'm fine, I'm tougher than I look. I just had a lot of bad things happen to my right leg.” She didn't accept that as an answer and stared at me sternly. It was The Stare. In the show I thought it was ridiculous that just looking at someone could do what The Stare did. To be on the receiving side of it though. It was seriously exaggerated. It was probably toned down because of how cute she was. “If your trying to use The Stare on me then it ain't gonna work.” They all reeled back in shock that I was not affected by Fluttershy’s Stare. “How the hay are you not affected!” Rainbow Dash exclaimed. “Whatever you are it is not normal.” I shrugged in response. “I don't know, probably because all of your are so darn cute. Now can I please get some ice on this wound? It'll help reduce the swelling and numb the pain.” Discord snapped his claw and a small bag of ice appeared. He gave it to me and I gingerly put it on my wound. I winced a little but didn't remove it. “Aahhh, shiz that hurts.” I inhaled deeply then exhaled. “I'm alright, just happy it wasn't my chest. Then I would be in real deep shiz.” That only made Fluttershy worry more. “Why? What would of happened if it was your chest?” She asked. “Well I could have possibly died for one.” I think it was the way I said it so casually that shocked them. “You see, about a year back, I had gone into surgery. The reason is, is that I have a semi-rare medical condition. I think it was called pectus excavatum. My chest wasn't exactly like other humans. “I had an about a half inch… dent, in my chest. But it had gotten worse throughout the years. It became deeper and deeper until it had gotten so bad that it had moved my heart. And not emotionally I'm talking about physically.” They gasped at that. “So when my parents noticed that I had trouble breathing they took me to get a body scan. After that, I was told that my rib cage wasn't moving like it should be and they diagnosed me with pectus excavatum. Months later and many check ups later, I was on that hospital bed and getting an IV put in my arm. “I kept saying as a small mantra. ‘Stay focused, Stay focused, Stay focused.’ To say it worked would be a lie. Next thing I know and the surgery is done and I'm laying in a different hospital bed. I felt weird, I expected to feel something but I could only feel the bedsheets. “When my eyes came into focus, my Mom was sitting on the bottom of my bed and… He was sitting on some kind of bench with cushions.” I said ‘He’ with a ton of venom. “Mom noticed that I have woken up and she smiled at me. I tried saying something but my throat was very dry. I asked for some water and she gave me a cup with a straw in it. When I asked if the surgery was done, she moved my blanket down and moved the hospital gown till I could see my chest. “I- I was so happy at that moment. ‘I was normal.’ That thought was played over and over in my head. I was normal, I was like other people at that moment. People had always teased me and bullied me but right then and there, I didn't care, I was normal. I didn't have a gaping dent in my chest.” I started to tear up a little at the memory. But they were tears of joy and not of sadness. I started to cry but I still had a smile on my face as I did. I wiped the tears away with my arm. I felt something hug my other arm and I looked down to see Flurry Heart trying to hug me but she was to small so she settled on hugging my arm. I ran my fingers through her curly mane and she giggled at the contact. I held my hand out for her to see and she started to inspect my fingers and hand. I lightly booped her on the tip of her muzzle with my index finger and she giggled some more. My day was instantly became better with Flurry Heart's giggles. I held her with one arm and started to tickle her with the other. She burst out in a fit of giggles and laughs. “Wow, I had never seen Flurry warm up to anypony like that.” Cadence said with amazement. I placed Flurry on top of my head like a hat where she began messing with my thick hair. “Meh, I've had three younger siblings by now so I know how to play with them.” “You've must of been a great brother.” I chuckled at that. “I guess so. If you want I could foal sit every now and then. Flurry has already taken a liking to me and it could give you and your husband more time to yourselves. If ya know what I mean.” I said with a teasing wink. Cadence and Shining became red in the face at what I was implying. I tried standing up with Flurry still on my head. I hobbled over to a chair and sat down. I could tell Flurry wasn't used to being so high up but she loved it nonetheless. “So, what's for breakfast?” I asked Celestia. “I didn't know what your kind ate so I presumed herbivore, but by the look of your canines. I presumed wrong.” Celestia said with what I think was a ting of worry. “Wrong and wrong, I'm an omnivore. I eat both meat and veggies. I don't need meat all the time but I will need at least one meal a week with meat in it. But in any case I'm fine with almost anything except grass, flowers, and hay. Those can seriously screw up my digestive track.” Celestia nodded and then the waiters came out with our food. They spread it across the table so the food could be passed around if needed. I eyed some cinnamon rolls and eggs. “Flurry, do you see what I see?” I felt her nod in response. “Good. I have a plan so we can have all of those cinnamon rolls. And I promise to share with you. Okay?” She nodded again and lifted her off my head so I could whisper the plan to her. She crawled under the table to nab them while I had to make a scene to distract everyone while she took them. “So guys, how am I going to be staying here? I already have an idea but I want to hear what you all have planned.” I had all of their attention. Celestia swallowed what she had in her mouth and said. “We never really had a plan as your coming here was so sudden, but if you have a plan then I think we would all like to hear it.” “Well, I planned on staying here for the first two days. My first would be with Luna and the next day with you. Then I would travel to the Crystal Empire with Cadence and Shining. I would spend a day each with the two of them before travelling to Ponyville where I would do the same with the others.” Flurry had just moved the Plate piled high with Cinnamon rolls under the table with her magic. Celestia contemplated this and seemed to brighten up. “That seems like a marvelous idea Dan. It would be nice to get to know you a little better.” Flurry was now back at my seat but has yet to come out because she waiting for my signal. “If you all will excuse me I have to go the bathroom.” I tapped my foot once to signal Flurry to get ready. I stood up and turned around to open the big door. Once I had it open enough I snapped my fingers and Flurry teleported out into the hall but made sure the flash wasn't seen by them. I closed the door and picked up Flurry. “Good job Flurry, now let's find a place to gorge on these sweets.” And with that I ran off to find the gardens and hide in the maze.
Code Blue, I repeat we have a Code BlueView OnlineThe Second ChanceCode Blue, I repeat we have a Code BlueFlurry was pointing in which direction I had to go to get to the gardens. When we finally got there we heard this from a noticeably angry Luna. “FLURRRRYYY! DAANNNYY! I WILL FIND YOU AND RETRIEVE THE ROLLS OF CINNAMON!” I looked up at Flurry heart and one meme was going through my mind. We freaking booked it. Well I did. Flurry was clinging to my head while holding the plate piled with Cinnamon rolls with her magic. It has yet to occur to me that Flurry had a lot more control over her magic then a normal unicorn foal. Of course my knowledge of said subject was only based off the Cake Twins. We took random twists and turns to hopefully make our route as confusing as possible. Then I realized, ‘Tracks'. I stopped and looked at the dirt behind us. My footsteps were very noticeable in the dirt. “Uh oh Flurry, I don't think that we can hide for long. Unless you know a way to clear away our tracks.” Flurry seemed to think for a moment then she got an ‘Idea!' face. She spread her wings and pointed at them. I quickly caught on. “Great thinking Flurry!” I grabbed her off my head and held her so she can flap her wings and blow away the dirt. We did this till I found us in a pretty well hidden part of the maze. “Okay Flurry, I think we got a good enough of a spot.” I sat her down in my lap and she set the plate on my legs. She levitated a roll while I held one in my hand. “Cheers!” I bumped my roll against hers and we took a bite. We continued this until the plate was empty. Flurry’s belly was a little bloated while I was rubbing my filled stomach. “Oh man, that was goood. You know, we make a pretty good team. How about it? Want to be partners in sweets crimes?” I watched as she slowly nodded her head before yawning and laying her head on my exposed stomach. I pulled her in and started to fall asleep with her held to my chest. Only to wake up to the angry puffs of air from a very irritated night princess. Before she could yell I put a finger to my lips and ‘Shhh'd' her. I pointed down to the sleeping Flurry Heart and I could see Luna’s anger melt at the adorable sight. She looked up at me back to her angry expression. She then proceeded to whisper shout. “This is not over, do you know how long you've been gone! We've had to send the royal guards to search for you. Cadence and Shining Armor think that you have foal napped Flurry Heart! Also I will get you back for stealing the rolls of cinnamon. Though I now see you had an accomplice.” “I prefer partner in sweet stealing. Though, if you want I can add you to our little group. What do you say Luna? Want to steal some sweets? You know your sister has a major sweet tooth.” I said trying to lure Luna to my side. It worked. Luna thought about it for a bit then a mischievous grin started to form on her muzzle. She nodded and there we formed the Sweet Thieves. I looked at the sky and noticed it was about noon. I shaked Flurry awake and she yawned before trying to curl up tighter to my chest. It was too adorable! I tried again and she rubbed her eyes and blinking them to become awake. I held her in my arms and stood up again. “Hey Luna shouldn't you be asleep for tonight? After all me and you are going to be together for tonight aren't we?” I could see the bags under her eyes but she tried to wave it off. “Nay young Dan-*yawn* -l we can be awake hours… into… the… zzz.” She fell asleep standing up. She started to lean to one side but I saw this and quickly caught her with my free arm. I wasn't that strong but apparently Luna was lighter than she appeared. She was by no means fat, in fact she was pretty athletic. I could feel the strong muscles beneath her fur along her stomach. I carefully put Flurry on my head and used both arms to pick up Luna with both arms. I carried her like I would my brother and put her head on my shoulder. She nuzzled into my neck and wrapped her wings around me. ‘Well this is just great. I'm lost in a maze with two princesses. And the one that's awake can't even talk yet.’ I have great memory but I couldn't remember the twists and turn I took. The maze was grown so that even Celestia couldn't look over it without flying. Even with Flurry on my head she couldn't look over the walls of the maze. I sighed and stuck to one side of the wall till we got to a crossroads. I went through and returned to the right wall. I continued this until I gazed upon something in the dirt. My shoe prints! I walked in the opposite direction that they were going and not even 5 minutes later I found my way out. I was greeted by a platoon of royal guards. “Uhh, hi guys?” They remained silent. One of the pegasi of the group flew away somewhere but other than that, nothing. I sat down on the ground and waited for something to happen. I decided to investigate Luna's mane. I wiggled my arm out form Luna's wing hug and started to mess with Luna's mane. The only thing I can compare it to is if that water was solid but still held it liquid characteristics. I waved my hand through a group of stars and they swirled like they were in water. But when they stopped they stayed in the same place and looked like swirls. I proceeded to make her mane look like a painting I remember. Once done I looked proudly at my work. But my worshiping was cut short by an angry sounding Cadence. “DA-” I loudly shushed her and pointed at the sleeping Luna. Her expression softened when she saw the sleeping Luna and Flurry Heart messing with my hair. She still looked pissed at me though. “Will you kindly explain what you did and why?” She said in a whispered shout. “I honestly found that it would be hilarious, that and I could begin the transformation of making Flurry a prankster. With her cuteness and my… human-ness, we could prank anyone with ease! Now I would like to get Luna to bed if you don't mind. We have an entire night ahead of us.” I said as I stood back up. I walked over to Cadence then crouched. “Could you take Flurry Heart please?” Cadence lifted her off of my head and onto her back. Flurry wasn't all smiles at that and raised her hooves for my hair. She tried saying something but came out as gurggles and other baby noises. I stood back up and walked for the castle entrance. It was twenty minutes before I found my way back to Luna's room. Now while Luna was light to me, carrying anything after a while could become heavier as your arms became more tired. Right now Luna felt like she weighed a couple hundred pounds. I briskly walked over to her bed and tried laying her down. I somehow got her to release me from her wings. I left the room and walked in a random direction. I let my wander a bit to think about my situation. ‘Let's do a quick recap. Got pulled into Equestria because Luna saw my memories. I now have a plan to make Flurry my prankster partner in crime. I'm pretty sure Cadence is going to give me an earful later on. Now if this is anything like the FanFictions I've written then something should go wrong anytime now.’ As if fate had read my mind I accidentally bumped into a pony. I looked down to see the last pony anypony wants to even be in the same room as. Prince ‘Fucking Asshole’ BlueBlood. He looked at me with disgust. “Ugh, what a horrid creature, probably one of my aunts weird pets. Must not be that important to them if they let it roam freely.” ‘Oh my fucking G- Celestia, this guy is worse then in the show.’ “Actually ya twat, I'm a free thinking being and I'm no ones pet.” I said to him. I then got the feeling I shouldn't have said that as he grew an evil smirk on muzzle. “Oh? Then that means your trespassing on royal property. That also means I can throw you in the dungeons.” With that his horn lit up and I felt a tingling all around my body. I was then lifted into the air. I naturally began to flail my limbs at the unfamiliar feeling. I eventually ended up smacking Blueblood in the face. He didn't lose concentration but it did make him mad. “You Brute! I will show you what happens when you strike Royalty!” His magic solidified on my left arm and then he began to make it bend in an angle that is not natural for a human. I yelled out in pain as tears came to my eyes. I heard the bones start to creak and snap at the force as it got bent further and further. Eventually my arm broke and I cried out in pain again. I heard Blueblood laugh at my misery. Then I heard a familiar voice of Tempest. “BlueBlood! What have you done to Dan!?” She ran over and began to check on my body but was blasted by BlueBlood. “Out of the way you broken mare. No stallion or mare will ever love you without a horn. Without it, your just a weak Earth pony.” My mind went back to my Dad and my rage began to build. I slowly stood up with my left arm limp. I glared at Blueblood as I heard more hoovesteps coming our way. BlueBlood looked back at me but his triumphant look deflated when he saw my face. I ran at him and kicked at his stomach. He rolled on the ground till he hit a wall. I walked over and picked him up with my right hand around his throat. I slammed him against the wall and began thrusting my knee into his stomach. “NEVER, HURT, MY, FRIENDS!” I said each word with a kick to his stomach. I threw him over my head till his head hit the ground. I put my shoe over his face and grabbed his horn. “You don't deserve this horn you selfish, self righteous, asshole.” With that put his head on my shoe and brought the other one down and broke his horn. When it broke off he screeched in pain and magic sparks began to spray out from the stump. They burned my pants leg and my leg but I ignored the pain. I grabbed the horn and grabbed his tail. I then shoved his horn where Celestia's Sun will never shine. He began to silently scream before he fainted from the pain. I breathed heavily as I tossed the body to the floor. I walked over to Tempest and sat down next to her. I pulled her onto my lap and began to hug her. She cried into my shoulder as I rubbed her back. I lifted my head to see the dropped jaws of everyone except Luna since she was still asleep. I began to retell what happened. “I dropped Luna off in her Bedroom and as I was walking the halls I bumped into sir DoucheBag over there.” I nodded my head in BlueBlood direction. “He thought I was one of your pets but when I said otherwise he picked me up in his magic and told me I was going to the dungeons. I panicked and I accidentally hit him. “He got mad and slowly broke my left arm. When it finally broke Tempest found me and came over to check on me. That's when BlueBlood blasted her and told her that she was a broken mare and that no stallion or mare would love her. I got mad and you see the result.” I finished pointing at Blueblood again. Rainbow and AJ looked like they wanted to do tear off BlueBlood’s Testicals and replace his eyes with them. Celestia and Cadence just looked like they knew that this day was coming but not so soon. Shining Armor, Spike, and surprisingly Rarity looked at me with a smile that said. ‘Thank you for doing what we couldn't.’ Twilight and the rest looked horrified at the state I was in as they rushed over to me and began to check my injuries. Twilight and Starlight healed my burnt leg but said they could only numb the pain in my arm. Fluttershy began to examine Tempest's injuries. Pinkie asked if she could do anything to help. I then got an idea. “Actually Pinkie there is something that only you can do. I need you to ask Zecora if she has a potion for healing broken arms.” She saluted and zoomed off. Not even 30 seconds later she came back and said that Zecora said it would take a couple days to make. I nodded and let my head rest against the marble wall. “Can I get a bed please, the floor ain't the most comfortable place.” I got a few sad chuckles and I was lifted by Celestia's magic. Tempest was still in my arms as Celestia floated me and her to the infirmary. She let me float beside her as she walked and let Cadence and Shining Armor took care of BlueBlood. Celestia put me on a bed after placing Tempest on a different one and asked if I needed anything. “Can you come under here and sleep with me? I don't like to sleep alone.” That was true, ever since I was a baby, if I didn't have someone or something to sleep with I wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully or not at all. She giggled and nodded. She crawled onto the bed while removing her jewelry. Once she removed it all she asked if there was anything else I needed before she continued. “Could you remove my pants and shirt please?” She nodded and teleported them into a corner. She wrapped her forelegs and wings around me and pulled me into her chest. She nuzzled the top of my head while inhaling my scent. I wrapped my good arm around her and pulled myself closer. She was very soft and her fur smelled of a summer day at the beach. Her wings tickled a little but were still soft and comfy nonetheless. I felt myself soon drift off to the land of dreams. I opened my eyes to see a confused Luna looking at me. “Dan? Why are you asleep? It is still midday is it not, and what happened to your arm!?” I then proceeded to retell what happened with my encounter with Blueblood. By the end she had dark wisps coming out of her hooves. I recognized what was happening and I quickly rushed over to give her a hug. I held on tight even as she tried to push away. “LET GO OF US DAN! WE WILL KILL THAT BLUEBLOOD FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE TO YOU!” “No! Don't do it Luna! Don't give in the Nightmare again! Please stay with us! With your sister! With your friends! With ME!” She stopped thrashing and looked at me. I could see tears in her eyes as she looked at me. She suddenly shut her eyes in pain as she started to spasm. Her hooves went to her head as she yelled. “Get out! Get out, Get out, Get out!” Her horn lit up as a thick dark blue smoke came out. The black wisps that were covering Luna seemed to leave with the smoke. Once all the black wisps were gone the smoke detached itself from her horn. It slowly came together and an Alicorn was left. “Nightmare Moon.” I whispered under my breath. She was lying on the ground and seemed to be unconscious I slowly moved over to the unmoving body of Nightmare. Once I was next to her I kneeled down and put my hand on her coat. She wasn't wearing any of her armor. Her coat was soft but was a bit too cold. I wrapped my body around her and used my body heat to warm her up. She was as big as Celestia so it was kinda hard for me to wrap myself all around. Luna was just rubbing her head to get rid of her new apparent headache. When she spotted me big spooning Nightmare Moon her jaw went slack. We stayed like this for a while with neither of us saying a word. When Nightmare began to stir Luna shook herself out of her shock and charged her horn. I raised my hand up and shook my head. She understood but was a bit apprehensive. I looked at Nightmare’s face as she slowly opened her eyes. “Ugh, what in Equestria happened?” She said while rubbing her head like Luna was doing earlier. When you look at Nightmare Moon this close and without the battle armor, she was beautiful. Her long slender black body and neck and her space like mane. “It's alright, take it easy.” She jumped a little at my voice and she swivled her head to look at me. “What the hay are you!?” She exclaims. “I'm a human, my name is Dan, Luna brought me here after she saw my-” “Memory Nightmare.” Luna cut me off. Nightmare’s eyes widened and twisted her head to Luna. They just stared at each other for awhile in an awkward silence. “... What the hay is going on!?” They shouted at the same time. This was gonna take a while. After about an hour of explanation, I was sitting next to Nightmare but she was now sitting as well. I had my hand behind her ear and I was scratching it, much to her pleasure and to keep her calm. She was humming in contentment at my attention to her ears. “Mmm, yeeeeesss~ riiiiiii~ght there~.” She purred. It was so freaking adorable seeing her like this. Luna was still grumbling about what she would do to Blueblood next time she saw him. “So if your separated from Luna in the dream world, does that count in the real world as well?” There was a pregnant pause as the two stopped doing anything. They looked at each other then at me. “I do not think so, but that may be the case. But if it is then we already have the elements to get rid of her again.” “Uh, I don't think you can do that. The elements aren't used for killing evil entities. There used for banishing them. All they would do is send Nightmare somewhere for an extended period of time before she comes back. The only time that anything was killed is Sombra but even he isn't dead.” Almost as if the record sound was played Luna and Nightmare went wide eyed. “UMBRA IS STILL ALIVE!” They shouted at the same time. “Yeah, Luna can you project my memories onto something?” She nodded and a holographic screen appeared. I stood up and went over to it. After searching for a while I found the memory of a clip from the Ki- Queen Umbra episode. Everything was the same except King Sombra was a female. As soon as the memory showed the horn being blasted out of the sky I stopped the video. “There, right there.” I said pointing at the horn. They became fearful as they started to panic. “This is not good, if Umbra’s alive and Cadence and Shining Armor aren't there then Umbra can attack at anytime!” Luna exclaimed in worry. “I agree, while I don't like Luna that well I never liked slavery, all I want is for ponies to appreciate the night. All I want is what Luna wanted, but now since she wants to protect you then that is what I shall do.” Nightmare said nuzzling my cheek. I returned the nuzzle before saying. “Well I say that we send out a search team to find that horn. But if it is found nopony is to touch it. Who knows what could happen. For all we know, they could become an artificial body for her. And no magic either. She could still corrupt them through their magic.” They nodded and mentally put it down on a list. The area began to fall apart and Luna said that I was waking up for the night so we could spend it together. I opened my real eyes to hear a heart monitor beeping and somepony else breathing. I look over to where Tempest lay and she had an IV needle in her foreleg and those things that are attached to the heart monitor over her chest. The doors open and I see not only Luna but Nightmare Moon next to her. “Guess I was right.” I chuckle a little but pain comes back to my arm making me wince. My arm was in a cast so I couldn't very well move it. Nightmare comes over and frowns at the injury. “What happened to you to break your entire arm?” I then retold for the 3rd time my confrontation with Blueblood. By time I'm done Nightmare is Pissed for lack of better word. “When I'm done with that bucker he will wish he was sent to the sun.” “Don't Moon, besides, I already broke his horn and took his anal virginity with it.” She looked at me surprised then burst out laughing. “That's rich! Hahaha! Do you know how hard it is to break a Unicorn’s horn? Chip it or make a crack in it is one thing but to completely break it off requires the strength of a Manticore!” Nightmare’s laughing then cause Tempest to stir in her sleep. “Ugh, keep it dow-” When she laid her eyes on Nightmare her eyes widened and her pupils shrunk in fear. “Ni- Ni- Nightmare Moon.” She squeaked. “Tempest, calm down. Nightmare isn't going to hurt you. Isn't that right Nightmare?” I said slowly and calmly. “I promise not to hurt anypony without a good reason and I promise to not try to overthrow Equestria. Happy?” Nightmare Moon said half-heartedly. Tempest seemed to calm down but not by much. Then the double doors in the room opened to reveal Celestia, Cadence and Shining Armor, Starlight, Spike, and the Mane 6 were in the doorway. When they saw Nightmare they stopped in their tracks. Next thing I know Nightmare is being held down by Celestia and Cadence, Shining Armor has put up a shield around me,Tempest, Spike, and Starlight, and the Mane 6 have ran off somewhere. Luna? Well she's facehoofing. “Celestia, Cadence stop! Nightmare isn't here to cause trouble! She's just here to protect me! Shining put your pink ass shield down, NOW!” The volume of my voice seemed to surprise them all as Shining’s shield wavered. I pulled myself out of bed and stood up. I used my healthy arm to start punching the shield. Cracks started to spread where I was punching. When it looked damaged enough I kicked at the spot I was punching and the shield broke. I knew I was strong but not that strong! I ran over to Cadence and wrenched her off Nightmare. “Get off of her!” I yelled as I shoved Celestia off as well. “Hey Moony, you alright?” I asked as I knelt down and helped her up. “Ugh, yeah, I'm fine. Ponies are still as jumpy as ever.” She said while rubbing her stomach. “Dan!? What's wrong with you!? Don't you know who she is!” Celestia looked at me as if I was crazy and I was close to thinking that I actually was. “Yes I know who she is and I also know who all of you are, I know about the Canterlot Attack, I know about Chrysalis, I know about Tirek, I knew that Discord was gonna betray you all for Tirek before even he thought about it! I know a lot more then you think, I've watched this world for a long time and do you know how? Your all a kids TV show! There's even a movie and Tempest there was the secondary villain!” I exclaimed in frustration. I breathed heavily once I finished my rant. They all looked at me with different expressions. I turned around and ran out the doors. I didn't notice the Mane 6 as I ran through the small group. I didn't know where I was running, I just wanted to get away. To be alone. I ran and ran and before I knew it I was back in the maze. I took random twists and turns at different intervals. I came out upon what looked like a small garden. A small tree that was in bloom with small flowers all over stood next to a small pond. I walked toward the pond and saw some fish in it. I looked around some more and saw a bench was under the tree. I brushed off some of the petals that have fallen and took a seat. I pulled my knees into my chest and cried. “Why do I hurt people without meaning to. Why am I like this. Every time I try to help or be nice someone ends up getting hurt, either physically or emotionally.” I cried into my arms. What I didn't know was that Spike had followed me and heard everything I had said. (Spike Pov.) I ran back through the maze with ease since I've been coming in here enough to remember the entire layout. What Dan said worried me. ‘Why do I hurt people without meaning to.’ Had he hurt ponies? If so then who? My short legs don't help when I'm trying to run long distances. I finally made it out of the maze to see Twilight and her friends along with the princesses and Nightmare Moon-... “N- N- Nightmare Moon! Wh- What are you doing here!” “I am here for Dan's well being. Speaking of which, where is he?” She asked… worried? “He's in the center of the maze. But when I found him he was crying. He said something about him hurting ponies without wanting or meaning to. ‘Physically or Emotionally.’ He said.” Spike finished looking a bit downtrodden. “Well who do you think should go talk to him?” Luna asked. This just started an argument to see who would try and help him. Fluttershy and Luna, being the only ones not in the argument were thinking about what Spike said and the situation that is taking hold in front of them. “Everypony, QUIET!” Luna roared in the RCV. The ponies that were the cause of Luna using the RCV instantly stopped arguing. “Do you not see that this is what Spike was talking about? Instead of trying to comfort him we argue about who should do it! This isn't what Danny wants. He just wants to have fun and make friends while he can. We shouldn't fight over him like his friendship is just some prize. Only one pony should go and comfort him right now as he would get overwhelmed if we all went. That is why I have worked down 4 ponies and dragon that should go talk to him.” Author's Note A new chapter done. Now, for the polls! The ponies and dragon I have selected are: Spike. Fluttershy. Rainbow Dash. Applejack. And Shining Armor.
I did not have permission to die! *View OnlineThe Second ChanceI did not have permission to die! *Author's Note Welp, another chapter done. Sorry for the long wait, my school work has me sooooo backed up. Also, from now on, any chaps with a (*) will be a chap with clop so be on the look out for that. But do not let me keep you any longer, now go and enjoy the show. (Thanks Zecora for tutoring me in rhyme.) I did not have permission to die! * (Luna POV.) “I have decided that Fluttershy will be the one to help Danny.” I say to the group. I held up a hoof to stop them from speaking. “I chose Fluttershy because right now I think Dan needs a bit of kindness that only a pony such as Fluttershy can give.” “Well Ah can't argue there, Fluttershy is one of the kindest ponies I know.” Applejack agreed. “Yeah, if anypony can cheer Dan up, its Fluttershy.” Rainbow Dash added. I nodded and looked to Fluttershy. “Well Fluttershy? Do you think you can check on Dan? You do not have to do it if you still feel uncomfortable around him.” “N- No, Danny needs somepony there for him. I- I'll go, I just hope he won't get mad at me for disturbing him.” Fluttershy said timidly. She flapped her wings and flew off to find Danny. (Fluttershy POV.) As I flew over the tall hedges that made up the maze I wondered why Danny was crying and why he ran past all of us without even as saying a cheery hello. ‘Maybe he's homesick?’ I quickly pushed that one away as I remembered Danny’s father. ‘No, that can't be it.’ Then I remembered what Spike said. ‘‘He said something about him hurting ponies without wanting or meaning to. ‘Physically or Emotionally.’ ’ Maybe that was it, he thought that he had somehow hurt us.’ My mind drifted back to Nightmare Moon but what confused me was how Luna was there as well. ‘Maybe that's why Dan is crying. He thought he had hurt some of us by accidently bringing back Nightmare Moon. I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard Danny crying. I looked around and saw him lying on a bench with his front toward me. I softly landed and saw the dampness on the ground near where his head was laying. I knew I had to be careful with how I approached him. I slowly stepped towards him, making sure to make as little noise as possible but he somehow heard me. “Please, just stay away, I don't want to ruin your friendship. All I do is cause problems without wanting to. So just please, stay away, let me rot here and you can remove my corps later.” That was it, no matter if it didn't work on him I had to. I used The Stare when I turned him to look at me. He looked shocked to find that I was the one to come to him but before he could do anything I told him in my strictest and loudest voice yet. “Danny, No. No matter what you do or how things go we will always be your friend. Don't you ever say that you hurt us. Don't you ever say that.” I stopped using The Stare and gave him a nuzzle as I said comfortingly. “We all want you here Danny. We wouldn't have asked you to come here if we didn't. You may have had a bad life where not a lot of ponies liked you but here, we all want you here. “Especially Luna. I may not be Cadence but I can tell that she has feeling for you. Please don't just give up. Please.” I finished with a tight hug. He slowly moved his free arm and being me closer to him. He made sure to have a firm grip but to also be gentle and tender. I brung up my wings to wrap around as much as I could of him. It wasn't too much but I felt my wingtips barely touch each other. He cried into my shoulder as he held me close. “Please, I don't want be alone, never again, please.” He pleaded as he sobbed. “Of course Dan. Of course.” I don't know how long it took but he finally stopped crying and sat us up so I was on his lap. I blushed a bit at the odd position but didn't move to get off. He was so warm and soft and but his abs were still hard. I soon remembered that he was half naked. I blushed furiously as I tried to at least scoot away. He noted my discomfort and let go of the hug. “Th- thanks.” We both said at the same time. “For what?” Again, we both said it at the same time. We giggled a little at that. “You go first.” Dan said politely. “I- I was thanking you for letting me go when you saw that I was uncomfortable.” “Well of course, anyone would have done it. I was thanking you for helping me. You know, not a lot of people back where I'm from would do what you did. You may not realize it Fluttershy, but your very brave. And if anyone says otherwise, ignore them, if they don't want to know the real pony you are, then they can go find a pack of Timberwolves and get mauled by it.” While I didn't like that last part, I did blush when he said all those other things. “Yo- You think I'm brave?” “Of course you are! Just look back at all the things you've done!” I've never really thought about it but as I thought more and more, he was right. Even when my shyness or my nervousness came up, I would push through it to help my friends. Manticore, Dragon, Cockatrice, I was scared but pushed through to help my friends. I looked up at Dan’s dark chocolate brown orbs that were his eyes. I felt myself blush a little as I got lost in his warm and mirthful eyes. The held a great happiness but also a great sorrow. It was well hidden but I caught it. He was sad, no that's not the right word, depressed? I don't know but whatever it was held such pain that it almost made me cry. ‘Why does he hide all this pain? Why is he so afraid?’ Are the questions that went through my mind as I gazed into his soul. I was snapped out of my trance as I heard him awkwardly cough. “Well, umm, we should get back to the others. Don't want them to worry, ya know.”Danny said getting up and walking back into the maze. I flew up and guided him to the exit by telling him where to go. Soon, he was out of the maze and was brought into a hug by Luna and Nightmare Moon. Everypony else joined soon after, even me. I don't know how long we stayed like that but I didn't care at the moment, Dan needed us. He was alone for so long. He never needed to be alone again. All of us would make sure of that. (Dan POV.) As I was hugged by all my new friends, I knew that with them, I wouldn't be alone again. Sure I was the only human around but I didn't care. These ponies are sentient, sapient, and are so freaking cute! Not to mention warm and their fur is so soft. Other than being equine in shape, their practically humans. Nicer and cuter equine humans. If I have to have a marefriend now or in the future then I'm totally fine with it. Heck, I would have been fine with even Chrysalis as a Marefriend. Though, I would have to make her have some peace relations with the ponies. Which would have been no easy task as this is the point in time, after Starlight foiled her second plan. Still, makes me wonder if a herd would be fine here. There are plenty of Equestrias out there and some don't approve of herding. Makes me glad I'm not a displaced, I could not handle all that crazy shit. Too many displaced Equestrias and keeping track of each one's rules and which one has a displaced or not would hurt my head. As we separated from the hug I looked at my arm and noticed it didn't hurt throughout the entire hug. In fact, it stopped hurting a while ago. I take off the sling, much to the surprise to everyone that was present. My arm was completely healed. It was like it was never broken in the first place. “Huh, seems like I have a dulled version of Deadpool’s healing factor. This will be helpful in the far/near future… I think.” Surprisingly, Moony was the first one to come to me. She lights up her horn and scanned my body. “Though I have no idea who this ‘Deadpool’ pony is, what you think is false, it appears that the passive magic in the air has changed you so you not only heal faster, but you may learn to use magic after a while. Perhaps I could teach you some offensive spells. This stallion here could teach you defensive magic and Twilight could teach you other types of magic like levitation or teleportation.” Twilight looked like she was thinking of all the ways she could teach/do experiments on, me. Shining was shocked along with everypony else but then looked like he was making a training regimen for me in his mind. Me? I was wondering what color my magic would be. Yes, I just discovered I could learn magic and I'm wondering what color it would be. Sue me. “What color do you think it will be? I kinda want it to be a dark purple. Now that would be badass. Hands glowing all mystic like and dark purple. That gives me an idea for my Halloween costume. Probably some kind of mage assassin. Make knives and stuff out of magic, Cast some sleeping spells. Yeah that would be freaking awesome.” Now they were staring at me in bewilderment. “You discover you can use magic and all you can think about is a costume and what color your magic is!? I swear your ridiculous.” Starlight bewildered by my reaction. I laughed and soon enough they were laughing along side me. “Wh- Why are we laughing!?” Starlight asked trying to talk, breath, and laugh at the same time. “I don't know why you guys are laughing but I'm just laughing at the absurdity of the situation. In a few days, I am portaled into Equestria, becomes Flurry’s best friend, BlueBlood brakes my arm, I then beat the hell out of BlueBlood, I somehow separate Luna and Nightmare Moon, and figure out I have magic potential. I'm not sure if this is the same for you guys but these have been the best days of the life I've lived so far.” I said joyfully. And these have been the best days. Not only am I in Equestria, Luna may have the hots for me! That's recently a win in my book. I reeeaally hope that this Equestria allows herds. But I'm gonna have to figure that out on my own time. ‘If Twilight finds out I'm doomed, DOOMED I SAY!’ “Well Pinkie, it looks like you have some competition in the oddness department.” Rainbow joked. Pinkie didn't take it that way. She glared at me and tried doing the ‘I'm watching you.’ sign with her hoof. I laughed and said. “Trust me, trying to beat Pinkie at being random is impossible, if anything she should worry about Discord taking her spotlight in that department. He's the only one that could possibly match her.” “Finally! Somepony sees that I'm possibly more random than Pinkie!” Said Discord as he appeared in a cloud of Pink Smoke… Was he wearing a tie-dye ninja outfit? Like I said, Random. “Oh no you don't! I'm the most random one here! And I always will be! You better watch you back Discord, cause I may just be there.” Pinkie said glaring at Discord. “We shall see young Pinkie, we shall see.” Discord grabbed a small ball off his ninja outfit and threw it on the ground causing a smoke cloud and making us cough. When it was gone, a Pony Garden Nome was in his place. I picked it up and looked underneath it. A tiny Discord was inside, still in his ninja outfit. I smirked and yelled. “Nightmare… Blast it!” I threw the Nome up as high as I could and Nightmare blasted it with her magic. I held out my hand and the Tiny Discord landed in it. Though he was covered with black streaks. “And, viola. A tiny smokey Discord.” Some of them laughed while Fluttershy checked to see if Discord was okay. “Hahahahaha! Oh Celestia, that was hilarious! Hahahaha!” Rainbow laughed. Applejack was chuckling, Twilight was giggling (‘So Cute!’), Starlight was laughing but not as hard as Rainbow, Rarity was trying to hold in her laughter but was hard pressed to do so, Tempest was giggling alongside Twilight (‘Again, So Cute! Actually Tempest has a really nice laugh. Will have to make sure to have her laugh more often.’), Celestia and Luna was giggling behind a hoof, Shining had a smirk on his face, and Cadence was giggling behind her hoof as well. ‘Wait a minute.’ “Where's Flurry Heart?” We all froze. Next thing I knew Shining and Cadence disappeared with a teleport. “Well shieeeet. This is gonna end badly.” I said to no one in particular. I walked forward and said. “We better go help them, who knows what Flurry can do if she isn't under a watchful eye. Let's all hope that she was just asleep this whole time.” I walked a bit until I found Cadence's and Shining’s room. Inside was pure chaos. Unused diapers everywhere. A wailing Flurry. I've seen enough. At the top of my lungs I yelled. “FLURRY HEART!” This caught Flurry’s attention and when she saw me a massive grin grew on her face and she rocketed out of Cadence's forelegs and into my chest. ‘Oh sHIT.’ I groaned in pain and gripped my chest. Flurry looked happy but saw that I was in a lot of pain and she became worried. “B- Bar.” I tried to say but I had yet to regain my breath that Flurry had knocked out. “B- bar in my chest.” I wheezed out. Immediately, Luna took action. I was picked up in her magic and she cast a scan over me. “Oh no. No, no, no, no, no, NO! Everypony, we need to get him to the infirmary, NOW!” I heard a snap from Discord and a saw a flash of white. I was set down on a bed and Luna ripped my shirt off. “Tia, get the doctors, We need to put him under for a while until we remove or reset the bar.” “Luna, what's going on!? What's wrong with Dan!?” Exclaimed Discord. Fluttershy took him off to the side and retold them what I said a few days ago. Once finished, Discord was freaking out. “I can't just magic it out of him! It might do more bad than good! I don't know the original position of it so I can't move it back! Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no.” By that time, the docs have gave me a pain killer and put an IV into my arm with a sleepy drug. I was under in seconds. Nothing, I feel like nothing. And dark, very dark with no light. No hope. ‘Heh, probably dead now. Sad thing that is, I wanted to have some more fun. Poor Flurry, I kinda wanted to be her godfather. Maybe even take a pony out on a date. Tempest? Hell yeah, she doesn't get enough love even though she's beautiful and awesome. Applejack? I love her southern twang and she has beautiful eyes. I wouldn't mind dating her. Luna and Celestia? A lonely Moon and Sun goddess with amazing hair and beautiful eyes. Might cause some problems for them but I would still lay my life on the line for them. NMM? Would that be the same as dating Luna? Still, I would date her. Heh, my last thoughts are the ponies I wanted to date and yet I'm dead. Oh hello white light. What are you? Sorry but I want to live and if TV shows are to be believed, them you are my one way ticket to heaven or hell. That or your the next life and the light is the life of something coming out of a womb. Yeah, nope. I rather not have to go to square one. So screw you, I'm not going anywhere… What's that weird feeling? It feels like when a part of my body falls asleep but it's all over. ow, ow, oW, OW, OW, OH SWEET CELESTIA THAT HURTS! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUuuuuuuu………….” I gasped as I felt air return to my body. It was not pleasant, at all. My everything felt like it was fire. I was surrounded in a vortex of colors. Multiple blues, a goldish yellow, purple. It was seizure inducing. It slowly dissipated until all I could see was multiple ponies. Though, something was off. I lifted my hand to my left eye but I never saw my hand. I moved my hand farther away and sure enough, I was blind in my left eye. “Dan, are you alright?” Luna asked worried. I shook my head. She was on me in a second and looking me all over. I was still trying to process what happened. “I'm blind. I'm half blind.” I said with a blank tone and face. Luna got in my face and was looking into my eyes. She looked into my right then my left. She gasped when she saw it. “Oh Dan, I'm so sorry. But at least your still alive, right?” Luna said trying to look on the bright side. I just nodded. Rainbow came up and said. “Uh, I think he's broken. I think he might need to lie down for a bit.” Luna nodded and teleported all of us to her room. She lay me down on the bed but I haven't even blinked or moved my hand away from my face. I felt Luna teleport my clothes off and put me in my PJs. I didn't care if they saw my junk. “I Died” I whispered to myself. Luna was by side and asked if I could say that again. “I… Died. I Died.” I said like a broken record. I started to shiver as I remembered the cold blackness. (Luna POV.) I was worried about Dan's mental well being. He hadn't moved since he moved his hand in front of his face. I don't think he has even blinked. He started to shake while still mumbling the same thing over and over. This must have traumatized him. To die then be brought back to life. I have experienced a lot but to be resurrected is not one of them. I got on the bed and hugged Dan an placed his head in my chest. Nightmare did the same but made it so her head nuzzle under his neck. Others joined to try and comfort him. He needed to know that we would be there for him whenever. Slowly, he went to sleep. None of us moved as we heard his soft breaths. I entered his dream and cast a spell to ensure that he was in a deep and nightmare less sleep. In his dream he was surrounded by all of us. It was just like before he went to sleep. But this time he was sitting down and more ponies were with him. Celestia was behind him and his back was pressed against her barrel. Me and Nightmare were on his sides. Applejack was in his lap. Twilight was hugging his chest. I could recall a few faces from my time in Ponyville but I couldn't remember their names. One was a mint green mare with a lyre as her cutie mark. Another was what looked like if Shining Armor was a female and had a music note was a cutie mark. I think I even saw Zecora somewhere. He knew so many ponies that didn't even know him. He knew all of our names and we never even said our names. He knew of our world before he was even brought here. Yet we knew practically nothing of his world. He seemed so carefree, So joyous, So young. He was still so young and to have so much happen to him in such a short time. It was heartbreaking. Yet he took it in stride. He didn't care. Until now. Being on the verge of death is something that one doesn't easily forget. Dying and being brought back from the void. I can't imagine what that would do to me. And I am thousands of years old! To have done to somepony like Dan. Maybe… Maybe it would be best if he forgets. Willingly or unwillingly. He should not have to remember such a traumatizing experience. But the least I could do was ask. I would still make him forget while he was asleep later on if he said no. I exited the dream and lovingly nuzzled Dan. I didn't even notice that the moon has risen and everypony had fallen asleep on my bed. I yawned and went to sleep. I woke up to see Danny still sleeping peacefully with all of us on top of him. The sun has been risen but it seems my sister has gone back to sleep though. I looked for her in the pony pile and she had her head right on his lap. Tempest Shadow had fallen asleep on his chest with her muzzle in his neck. Even I had to admit, he did smell good so I could see why they wanted to smell him as well. Twilight had fallen asleep wrapped around his arm and Pinkie around his other. Applejack and Fluttershy had wrapped up around his left leg and Rainbow Dash and Rarity had done the same on his right. Flurry had fallen asleep right next to his head. Cadence and Shining Armor were nowhere to be seen though. ‘Must have seen this as a break to ‘have some fun’ as they would call it.’ My cheeks reddened a bit at that thought. I nuzzled the top of Dan's head a little more. It was a little awkward that some of my friends were pressed against my under belly but for Dan it was worth it. He hasn't been here for even 3 days and he was willing to fight someone to defend a friend. Though what he did to Blue blood was a tinybit overkill… Okay scratch that, I wanted to remove his horn and kick him from the royal family for a while. Though he wasn't removed from the royal family, he will be forced to work and live outside the castle from now on. ‘That's good enough I guess. One and a half out of two is good enough for me.’ I slowly retracted myself from the pony pile and I quietly make my way to my bathroom. I turned on the water with my magic and added some soap to the warm water. The water quickly became very bubbly. I got in and proceeded to take my bath. (Dan POV.) I woke up to weight all around my body. My pony friends had covered me in a blanket of themselves. It was very soft and very warm. But as my luck would have it, I needed to use the toilet, and soon. I don't know how but I somehow got out of the pile without waking any of them up. I made my way to what I assumed to be a bathroom and opened the door. I ignored the running water and the surprised Luna and made my way to the… What the hell is that? A pony toilet? Weird shape, oh well, I can make do. I pull down my pants and boxers just enough to enable me to piss without showing off my butt. I quickly relieved myself and pulled my pants back up. I sniffed myself and I smelled nasty. I looked behind me to see a bubble bath already prepared. “Well ain't that convenient.” I said to myself stripping off my clothes. I climbed into the bath and sat down in the water. The bath was reasonably deep and the water came up to my lower chest while the bubbles reached my neck. I sighed as I felt my body relax. I closed my eyes and let my mind go back a little. (Warning: Minor Clop ahead.) (You have been warned.) ‘Something's not right here.’ I thought as there was a massive blank in my head. I know I was tackled by Flurry but then that was it. ‘Maybe I was knocked out again? Meh, that's the best I got.’ I felt something brush against the bottom of my foot. I opened my eyes to see a dark blue figure in the bath with me. ‘Hold up, dark, blue!? Oh shit!’ I nearly jump out of the bath when I figured out who I was sharing a bath with. “Oh my, Luna I am so sorry! Ididn'tmeantocomeinherewhileyouwerebathing! IhadtousethetoiletandIdidn'tseethatyouweretakingabath!” I yell out as I felt my face flush with embarrassment. I crossed my legs so she couldn't see my manhood. I felt sooo embarrassed. The last time I walked in on someone bathing was when I was nine and I walked in on my mom. Luckily I barely saw anything. I was about to get out of the bath when I felt Luna's magic take hold of me. She moved me back to where I was and sat me down. “Its alright Dan. It was a simple mistake. Though may I ask a favor of you?” ‘Right, forgot ponies were a lot more open minded when it came to bathing. Not sure their hooves can reach all the way on their back.’ I nodded with my face still red. She *squeed* in happiness and teleported me a bottle of fur shampoo. I opened the bottle and lathered my hands with it. Once I made sure that it was sudsy. I ran my fingers down in the center of her back and between her wings which went rigid when my hand got between her wing joints. I scratched up and down her back while making sure her fur had a good amount of shampoo. I moved from her back to her sides and slowed down my hands as I was nearing her stomach and I did not want to tickle her right now. Maybe later, but not right now. After making sure that was all soapy, I moved to her back legs. I began to scrub around her cutie mark as I didn't know if it was a… Pleasure zone as some fics I've read have had it. A few minutes later and her whole body was sudsy and Luna looked like she was in heaven. I rinsed her off and she tried to float over another bottle. It was for her mane and tail. I popped the bottle open and began to repeat the process of getting the shampoo sudsy again. I moved my hands to her scalp and raked my hands through her wet mane. I did it until all of her mane was covered in suds. I repeated with her tail and the whole time Luna let out happy horse nickers and whinnies. I spotted one last bottle and it looked like it was some kind of soap for her wings. I grabbed it, popped it open, and made it sudsy again. I gently grabbed the base of her wing and began to rub the soap on the wing. They somehow became more rigid then before and Luna let out a loud moan. “Mmm yes! Do that again!” She moaned at me. Not wanting to get her angry at me, I proceeded to rub both wings with one hand each. She moaned even loader and her breathing became shorter and faster. ‘Oh Celestia, 1. That is so hot. 2. I'm practically giving Luna a hand job to her wings!’ The mix of Luna's moans and warm water did not help my growing erection. Luna moved me till I was back on my ass and she plopped herself right between my legs. Wouldn't have been a problem if her tail was now rapidly wagging back and forth in the water and was brushing against my D. It felt amazing. Like thousands of electric jolts were going up my spine. Luna moved me till I was sitting on the edge of the bath and then continued to give me a blowjob. It felt like nothing I felt before. I grabbed her ass and began grouping it. She moaned into my cock when I did. I moved my hands till I found her privates. I plunged my fingers into her slit and my other hand found her clit. I gripped it between two fingers and started rubbing. She stopped giving me a blowjob to let out a shriek of pleasure. Not to be outdone, Luna went to town with my dick in her muzzle. I grunted in pleasure as she licked, sucked, and deepthroated me. I plunged my fingers deeper into her slit and I started rubbing her clit in circles with my palm. She moaned around my dick and I almost blew my load. Through sheer will, I saw that her horn was in range of my mouth. It was sparking a blue liquid that was similar to magic. I moved my head to lick the liquid. It was blueberry, her magic tasted like blueberry. And then I felt Luna cum from pleasure overload. Her moaning, licking, sucking, and deepthroating became too much and I grunted. “L- Luna, I- I'm cumming!” She must have somehow registered my response and bobbed her head all the faster. My head was in her throat so my semen went straight to her stomach. She choked on my cum but never let any escape. I came for over a minute before the stream even slowed. Several minutes before I stopped. We collapsed into the bath and lay there panting. Luna looked to me and opened her mouth to show that she still had some of my semen in their. She moved her tongue around in the small pool before closing her mouth and swallowing. “Are you… Sure this is... your first time?” I asked Luna. She blushed and said. “I may... or may not... have stallions... pleasure me... but there was... never any... penatration… to my pussy or ass.” Luna said looking away, trying to hide her blush and shame. “Do you… Think the others… Heard us?” I asked Luna worried that somepony heard us. (Clop end.) “No, I don't think so. This room has a built in soundproofing spell on it. Nopony heard a thing. So, did you enjoy that as much as I did?” Luna asked with a saucy look. I nodded and said. “Yeah, but we might need to take a shower to clean ourselves off with a shower.” She nodded and with a flick of her horn and magic, the tub stopper was pulled out. “Also will this stay between me and you?” She nodded again but with a blush. “Also this does not mean you are my marefriend… But I will consider it.” She seemed disappointed but nodded nonetheless. Once the bathtub was emptied she turned on the shower head and we rinsed the… Other fluids off. We both got out of the shower and Luna cast a spell to dry our bodies off. We exited the bathroom but to see the sight of multiple panicking ponies. We stood there for about 30 seconds before decided to break the silence. (Activate Demoman accent.) “What's all this now?” (Deactivate Demoman accent.) They whipped their heads at me and before I could even blink. I was hug tackled by the entire group except for Luna. The sudden weight and speed on me caused me to fall on my back and my head to roughly hit the floor. But this time I stayed awake. Bad side is that now my head hurts… A lot. “Ow! Ow, ow ow! Get off me guys!” They realized my head was hurting and they got off of me. I sat up and rubbed the back of my head. It stung a little but no blood. “What the heck is wrong with you guys!? It's not like you'll never see me again.” That must have been the wrong thing to say as Rainbow now stared at me with a glare. “We almost did! What, do you not remember yesterday!?” She yelled at me with tears brimming her eyes. Okay Rainbow plus crying means something happened. Something really bad happened. “Wow wow, slow down. Now, please tell me what happened after Flurry flew into me. Cause after that I don't remember anything.” I say truthfully. They looked at me in shock before huddling up and began whispering so I couldn't hear. After awhile they unhuddled and said with fake smiles. “Uh, after Flurry ran into you, she uh…” Twilight started. “Accidently knocked you out!” Blurted Starlight then reverted back to her nervous smile with a few nervous chuckles. I sat there for a second and then said. “Meh, that's what I guessed. But what about what Dash said? From the sounds from her, she made it sound like I was on the verge of death… Unless she's just being over reactive. But this is Dash we're talking about, not Rarity, no offense.” “None taken darling.” “That or Rainbow cares that much about me.” I said in a teasing tone. Rainbow blushed and stammered but couldn't say anything. I chuckled a little at her expense. She always cute when she blushes… Well so does every other female pony. I got up and dusted myself off. “Well I'm hungry. How about any of you?” I ask walking to the door. “I would love to but I need to make myself look presentable.” Celestia said. The others said the same thing. “Alright then, come on Luna, maybe I can make my egg breakfast this time.” She perked up and followed me with a bounce in her step. The others rushed or teleported to their rooms as I know they want some of my egg breakfast as well. I followed Luna to the kitchen where it was luckily empty. I predicted that the others would want eggs as well so I pulled out from an ice box, four dozen eggs. I took out some milk and cheese as well. I looked through the cabinets for two frying pans and some olive oil. Once I had everything, I placed the pans on two burners which I had Luna turn them to medium heat. She got me a big bowl and a cheese grater. I expertly cracked all four dozen eggs without any of the shells falling into the bowl. I shredded the cheese block a little and then I told Luna. “This is my secret to making my eggs more fluffy.” I poured some milk into the bowl and grabbed a whisk to start whisking the eggs. I handed the bowl to Luna and had her whisk the eggs while I found two spatulas and poured a small bit of olive oil into the frying pans. They started to sizzle and I shifted the frying pan to cover the entire pan in olive oil. Luna handed me the bowl and I poured some of the eggs into the frying pan. I did the same with the other and then put the bowl on the counter. I gave a spatula to Luna and told her to watch me and follow my example. I started pushing the eggs around and chopping them. Luna followed my example. I asked her to get some plates ready and she floated out 16 plates. I placed an even amount of eggs on each plate. I repeated the process until the bowl was empty. I got the cheese block again and evenly sliced the cheese into 1/10th of a centimeter. I placed two pieces of the sliced cheese on each plate. I put all the food away and Luna put the dishes in the sink. I grabbed some forks and my plate while Luna floated the other 15 plates behind her. We entered the dining room to see everypony practically drooling. Luna placed a plate down while I placed down a fork. A waiter came around and asked what we wanted to drink. Most of them got water while I asked for apple juice. Once we all had a drink I said. “Well everypony, dig in!” I immediately began to chow down on my eggs and somehow they were better then ever before. Celestia and Luna were eating at a surprising speed. Cadence and Shining Armor looked like they were in heaven. Discord was putting his plate and eggs into a blender and then drinking it with a straw. Flurry had the biggest smile on her face as she ate her eggs. Everypony else where like they were in nirvana. When Discord finished drinking his eggs he said. “My boy these are the best eggs I've ever had!” When the others finished they said something around the same. “Thanks everyone. But these are just some eggs. Nothing that special.” I said modestly. “So what are we gonna do today? I don't know about any of you but I want to go out and explore the city.” I said taking everypony's dishes into the kitchen. When I came back they said that they would be happy to join me on a stroll. Celestia, Luna, Cadence, Shining Armor, the Mane 6, Tempest and Flurry had stuff to do at the castle and when I asked they said it was a surprise. Discord said he had to go feed the animals at Fluttershy’s cottage. So it was just me, Starlight, and Spike. I was pretty sure the others were just getting a surprise party ready for me. Once we hit the streets ponies were already staring at me in disgust (Mainly the stallions) while others were fascinated (Mainly the mares). Spike said he knew a place that sold the best doughnuts in Equestria. I knew it was Doughnut Joes but I went along with it. While we were walking I heard a muffled scream. It was a mares scream, and it was one of fear. I scanned my surroundings for the source of the scream. Starlight and Spike looked confused as to why I stopped walking. I saw a bit of white and a stallion look back and forth before going into an ally that the bit of white dissapeared into. I told Spike and Starlight to go get some guards and they did so. I went to the ally and looked around a corner to see three stallions surrounding Fleur De Lis. And one of them was about to mount her. I ran into the ally yelling. “Stop right there criminal scum!” ‘Always wanted to say that.’ They looked at me furiously and the one that was about to mount Fleur tied her up to a pole. They slowly advanced toward me while drawling knives from somewhere. They were all Earth ponies so I didn't have to worry about magic or flight but this also ment that they were a lot stronger than me. One of them slashed at me and I dodged. I ran alongside a wall then I ran across the wall till I was over a stallion. I jumped off the wall and kick stomped the stallion, knocking him out cold. I took the knife from his mouth and threw it at a stallion sucessfully hitting his leg and making him drop his knife. While I ran at the stallion the other one slashed at my arm. It wasn't close enough to go very deep but I did get a shallow cut that went from my hand to my elbow. I grabbed the knife from the ground and I ripped the knife out of the leg. I held both of them in my hands and I stabbed the stallion in his flank. I turned to the last stallion who was unhurt and was the one who was about to mount Fleur. I ran at him and he tried to slash at me but I jumped over him and quickly turned to plung my knifes in his cutie marks. I ripped them out then stabbed his for legs. He collapsed because his limbs were now useless. I ran to Fleur and slid on my knees. “Hey are you okay?” I asked while I took off her gag. “Yes, thanks to you. But who are you?” She asked me. “My name is Danny Thorn, what's yours?” I asked while I took off the magic inhibitor ring off her horn. “Fleur De Lis. Thank you for saving me from those stallions.” “Heh, that's just the kinda guy I am. So why did those stallions come after a beautiful mare like yourself. Surely it wasn't just to rape you.” I said making her sigh. “They wanted to make it seem like I was a whorse that would sleep with any stallion, they wanted to Blackmail me. Probably till I was poor or I was just there…” She began to cry. I picked her up in a hug. “Shh, Shh, it’s alright. That's not gonna happen.” I said soothingly stroking her mane and running my hand down her back. I wrapped her in my jacket and laid her head on my chest. I stood up and walked out of the ally where I found all my friends and guards frantically searching the street for me. When Spike spotted me and Fleur he told the others and they ran up to me asking me what happened. I told them about the stallions and how they were not only gonna rape her but also blackmail her. Celestia told the guards to arrest the stallions while I walked to the castle with everyone else. Fleur had calmed down and now was just resting her head on my chest. She was blushing a little as she probably felt my abbs and chest muscles. When we got to the castle I found an empty bedroom and set Fleur in bed. I sat beside the bed and I said I would be here till she fell asleep. I ran my hand down her silky long mane and her smooth silky back and side. I sometimes moved to scratch behind her ears. She would coo in bliss and slowly she fell asleep, most likely the combination of my petting her and emotional exhaustion. I smiled at how cute she was when asleep. I kept petting her as I was lost in the peaceful motion. Eventually my stomach told me it was lunch time. I stopped petting Fleur and stood up from the chair. I walked to the door way and looked both ways for a maid or guard. Luck was on my side as a maid was coming down the hall toward the room I was in. I waved her down and she came over. “Excuse me, but could you get me and the pony in here some food to eat. I'm not that picky so maybe two sandwichs for me. For the pony I think she'll take a sandwich and salad.” She nodded and I thanked her. I went back into the room and kneeled down next to Fleur’s temporary bed. This time I just looked at her form. Her coat was a bit dirty from the ally but otherwise was white as Celestia's. Her mane was pale pink and grayish white in stripes. I gently shook her. “Hey Fleur, time to wake up.” Hey eyes slowly opened and she yawned while stretching like a cat. ‘Dat flank though.’ “Mmm five more minutes.” She wined. I smirked and began to tickle her stomach. Though I was used to tickling my step mom from time to time I forgot it was different here. Her eyes shot open as she began to laugh. An open blush also came to her muzzle. “S-S-Stahahahap it!” She laughed. I stopped and chuckled. “Sorry, but you and your flank wouldn't get up.” I quipped. She blushed and lightly punched my arm. She got up but when she looked in the mirror she saw how disheveled her mane was. She was about to lift a brush in her mane but I grabbed it and said. “Allow me.” She sat in front of me and I kneeled to reach her height. I ran the brush through her mane slowly as to not pull on any knots. I knew how to do this because I sometimes had to brush my little sister's hair. She may have been a brat diva tomboy (Don't ask how, its the only way I can to describe her.), but I still loved her. I sometimes ran my through her mane to find anymore knots. I can tell that she liked when I did that cause she would purr a little under her breath. I quickly finished and moved to her tail. I lightly grabbed her dock to keep her tail from moving because to was wagging back and forth. I heard her ‘EEP!’ And I could tell that she was blushing madly. I ran the brush through her tail till I deemed it neat. I let go and Fleur stood up but kept her tail high and her horn was sparking. I could tell that I had accidentally aroused her by grabbing her tail dock. ‘Achievement unlocked, discover a pony fetish.’ I laughed mentally.
Blocking Fleur and Panic AttacksView OnlineThe Second ChanceBlocking Fleur and Panic Attacks‘I have got to stop getting into these kind of situations.’ I thought as Fleur was now kissing me lustfully. ‘I have to admit it though, she is a very good kisser.’ I just sat there as Fleur kissed me, still in a sort of daze. After a few more seconds I opened my mouth, allowing her tongue entrance into my mouth. My hands snaked down her body, Fleur was the same size as about Cadence, so it was kinda hard to lift her, no matter how slim her figure is. And what a figure it was too! She was the definition of sexy/beautiful. Although, something in the back of my mind kept telling me something about how slim she was, was… Wrong. When I stopped at her stomach, my fears were realized. There wasn't any muscle. With how slim, no, skinny she was, I had to ask. I put my hands to her face and removed her mouth from mine. “Fleur! Stop!” The way I said it must have knocked her out of her lust induced trance. “Stop! Please. Fleur, tell me, what have you done to yourself?” “I… I don't know what your talking about.” She said facing away from me. “Oh? Then tell me why are you so skinny?” I said rubbing across her stomach. Instead of fat or muscle, I felt ribs. I know what was happening, if Health class has taught me anything, it was how to tell when someone was starving themselves on purpose. I had learned that some actually starved themselves cause they kept thinking that they were too fat even when they were severely underweight. Some had actually died doing this. And vice versa. ‘Ugh, those images will forever haunt my mind.’ “I- I-” Fleur tried to get off but I held her down. “Fleur. Please talk to me. If your starving yourself just so you can keep your figure the way it is, then you need to stop. If you don't start eating like a normal pony, you will die. I have heard of some dying because they had tried to keep a figure like yours and kept becoming too skinny.” I said to her, my eyes pleading. She looked at me in shock before looking down in shame. I sigh and hugged her to my chest. Fleur began to cry into my chest, getting my shirt wet. But I didn't care. She needed this, and I wasn't going to stop her. “Come on, let's get some food into you.” I lifted myself off the ground and moved her head so she could nuzzle into my neck. I walked to the door and opened it. The maid from before was standing there but this time she was carrying a tray of food I had requested. I gestured for her to put the tray of food on the bed and she nodded before doing it. She left soon after and it was me and Fleur once again. “Come on Fleur, let's get some food in you.” I sat on the bed and laid her beside me. She accepted this but put her head on my lap. I picked up a daisy and daffodil sandwich and offered it to her she moved her head and took a large bite out of it. We stayed there with me feeding her. To no one's surprise, she ate the entire platter, even me food! She now had a full belly and was sleeping with her head nestled into my lap. I spied the hair brush on the bed and picked it up. I didn't know how it got on the bed but that didn't matter to me. I began running it through her, once again, disheveled mane. It still felt silky soft and smooth to the touch. While I brushed her mane, I started to scratch behind her ear. “Fleur, you can be beautiful without trying to keep your figure the way it is. Just don't go overboard trying to stuff yourself nor eat too little. Alright?” I asked the half asleep mare. She nodded before falling asleep. I continued to pet her and brush her, trying to make her look a bit more presentable once again. When I was done with her mane, I moved the brush to her tail while I ran my hand through her mane and down her neck. There was a knock at the door which made Fleur stir a little. “Come in, but please be quiet.” I quietly said. Rarity was the one to come into the room and when she saw Fleur she gasped. “Sweet Celestia, what happened!?” She whisper shouted. I then told her of the events that lead up to how Fleur was almost raped, blackmailed, and forced into bankruptcy. Then what happened after she woke up, but left out the part where Fleur tried to have sex with me. Hey, in the back of my mind, I was willing to fuck Fleur right then and there but I still had my virginity… sort of. I didn't know if getting a blowjob would count as losing your virginity. I was still… 16 now? Jesus, not even a few days and I can't remember my own age, Oh well. “... And then she fell asleep.” I finished the retelling of what happened from my point of view. “Oh, like a knight in shining armor! Coming to save the mare in distress!” Rarity said dreamily. I could only chuckle and quip. “I am no knight and you'll never find me in Shining Armor.” I had to stifle a laugh at Rarity's confused face before it exploded in a blush. “I- I- I-” I had to laugh at her face. Though this caused Fleur to groan and begin to wake. I went back to running my hand through her mane while the other was scratching behind her ear. Fleur yawned and snuggled deeper. Though not into my lap but my crotch. Her tail was flicking around every once in awhile. “Well, it seems you have that mare wrapped around your hoof… can you do the same to me?” She asked sheepishly. ‘How can these ponies be so cute?’ I thought as I patted the space on the bed that was next to me. Rarity daintily climbed onto the bed with ease. She laid next to me like a cat would and I took away the hand that was scratching behind Fleur's ear to begin stroking Rarity's soft light gray neck through her Moderately Indigo mane. Rarity’s eyes were a beautiful Moderate Azure. How I knew the exact color? Mlp Wiki. Very helpful when I got curious about the names of the colors that the ponies were. Having a photographic memory also helps. Rarity sighed softly and nuzzled my left leg. I smiled a little more and let myself get lost in the action. Now that I was right next to these ponies, I could see each and every individual hair of their manes and tails. As well as every single hair that made up their fur. Compared to what I was used to in the show, it was actually kinda odd. Though, this did give me some ideas for what to draw next. I had also taken to drawing in my spare time as well as writing fanfiction stories. Through, that hobby has now been thrown out the window. What's the point of writing if your living with the ones you write about? I'll need to think up of some other ideas. That don't involve ponies. … Now that I thought about it, that is going to be difficult. I had done a project in Web Page Design where we had to make our own web page. I had done mine on Equine anatomy which while seemingly random, helped me get the actual terms on Equine anatomy. Flanks weren't actually the ass of the horse, it was the sides of the barrel. Yep, I know, big shock. Anyway, the asscheeks of a horse is actually called the Croup or Rump. Hey don't look at me, I didn't name their body parts! In fact, a lot of those names are odd. Ugh, don't even get me started on docking. (*Shivers*) That is just downright disturbing. And no it is not sexual. It is the process of cutting off where the flesh part of the tail meets the hair part. So you are left with a stub of a tail. Yeah, nasty. I couldn't even imagine doing that to any of the ponies in Equestria. Even Blueblood. Even if I had broke his horn and shoved it into the place where the sun don't shine. I was broken out of my thoughts by hearing a soft snore. It hadn't come from Fleur, so it must have been… No way. I looked at Rarity. It was! Rarity was snoring! Oh this is excellent blackmail for later. I had stopped petting Fleur and had taken out my phone and began to record Rarity. This would be used for when she was making any clothes for me. If she dared tried to ‘beautify’ I would just show Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Applejack. And I know they wouldn't let her hear the end of it. After getting a few more minutes of her reacting to me petting her in different ways. They were all hilarious and adorable. I put my phone away and went back to petting Fleur. I sighed a little as I thought back to one of the horses that had warmed up to me when I was helping dad with fixing some things on a horse farm that one of his friends owned. Her name was Chestnut and like her name she was a beautiful brown horse that had a dirty blond mane and tail. For some reason, while I was walking through the barn that held some of the horses, she had nudged my shoulder with her muzzle. Mind you this was before I learned of My Little Pony, or more accurately, became a Brony. I looked at her and she nudged me playfully again. I had chuckled and let her smell me before I began petting her Face. I say Face and not Muzzle because the Muzzle is actually just the chin, mouth, and nostrils. Yeah, yeah, I'm a walking and talking guide on Equine and Equid anatomy, sue me! Also, Equids are the other species that can be defined as Equines. Such as Zebras and Donkeys. I had began to nod off myself when Fleur woke up. “Mmm, oh that felt amazing. I should hire you as my personal caretaker.” Fleur sighed happily as she rubbed my stomach with her head. Her horn almost poking my chin a few times. “While that does sound nice, I'm afraid that will have to wait… hey, what's the minimum age to have a job?” I ask Fleur. “15 years if your a stallion and 16 years if your a mare.” She told me, a curious look on her face. “Really? Huh, well then, how about instead I come visit you every once in awhile and help you. You know, making sure your eating right, massaging you, helping you relax in general. If that's alright with you?” I asked her a little sheepishly. Hey, she was a hot mare and being a guy with little to no female experience other than my own sisters, mother, and step-mother, I was just making stuff up as I went. “Of course mon cher. If that is the best I can get then so be it.” She almost said that a little… disappointedly. I gave her another scratch behind the ear which she graciously accepted. I yawned a bit and Fleur noticed this. “Dan, are you alright?” Fleur asked. “Yeah, just *yawn* fine. Why do you *yawn* ask?” I could feel my eyes drooping with every second I talked to her. Fleur got off the bed and looked at me and Rarity before levitating us. I was placed on my back with my head on the pillow. Rarity was placed across my stomach which I didn't mind. Fleur got onto the bed and laid across my chest, which I kinda minded. But that thought was cut off as she nestled her head into the crook of my neck and sighed happily. “You are so warm Mon Cher, much warmer than a pony.” I yawned once again before hugging Fleur with one arm and petting Rarity with my other before falling asleep myself. (Pov. Change: Luna) I looked through the door of the room Dan, Rarity, and Ms. Fleur de Lis was in as they slept peacefully and silently, well, except the light snoring of Rarity. I had used a sleep spell on Dan but with both ponies on top of him, moving him without waking the mares was going to be a problem. Though in the back of my mind I felt a little envious of Fleur and Rarity. I watched for a few more minutes to make sure the spell took full effect before opening the door and gesturing for the rest to come in as well. My sister, My Niece, The Mane 6, Spike, Starlight, and Tempest Shadow trotted silently into the room. Nightmare was still setting up some last minute decorations with Pinkie Pie though. Shining Armor was taking care of Flurry Heart. “He looks so peaceful.” Fluttershy whispered. “Indeed, it would almost be a shame to wake him.” Celestia whispered in agreement. That was, until a tear rolled from Dan's eye. Though he had a sort of sad smile on his face. “I wonder what he’s dreaming about.” Whispered Rainbow Dash. They looked to me and I rolled my eyes before going up to Dan and lightly tapping his forehead. A bit of mist formed and in it was Dan's dream. It showed of him hugging another human that was a little taller than Dan but had glasses with his hair tied up in the back to make a ponytail. Dan was a bit skinnier and younger by the looks of it. That and Dan was one or two inches shorter than the male human he was hugging. “I- I don't want to leave you Dylan!” Dan was crying into the shoulder of the older human, his tears staining the shirt whoever this ‘Dylan’ character was. “Dan, it's going to be okay. Right now, your surrounded by the ones you love and cherish. Your better off where you are by yourself than on Earth with me barely around. Cheer up little bro, your gonna be fine. Trust me.” Dylan said hugging Dan back. He pat his back a few times before Dylan stepped away from the hug, breaking it. Dan watched with balled fists as Dylan disappeared into mist. He fell to his knees and put his head in his hands, crying for all he was worth. That was, until ponies started to come into the dream. There was all of us and more. They all began to comfort Dan, giving him hugs and nuzzling him. He let them do whatever they wanted as he continued to cry. It wasn't until the Celestia in the dream lifted his head with her hoof did he stop and stare at her with tear stained cheeks. We all blushed as we saw the Celestia in the dream begin to kiss him. On the lips. Open mouthed. Dan grew a surprised look before melting into the kiss. He let Celestia push him on the ground as a dream Luna, Nightmare Moon, and Cadence try and join the kiss. Soon, all the ponies in the dream were taking turns kissing him. It wasn't until the dream Celestia started to pull down his pants did I cancel the spell. We stood there, our faces ablaze with a fierce blush. “Well, I knew he liked us but that, that was just, oh my...” Celestia said as her voice tampered off. Once we got over the shock of the dream we decided to move Rarity and Fleur off of Dan then move him. Though, we could only move Rarity as Dan's arms were hugging Fleur tightly. I was a little jealous but got over it quite quickly. Me and Celestia picked the two up with our magic and levitated the two of them with us. We carefully set him down and moved to our spots, the lights off and Rarity, having woken up, decided she should be the one to wake up Dan. (Pov. Change: Dan) I yawned as I returned to the land of the wakeful. My tired mind not realising I had a boner which was barley hidden by my pants. It was also then that I realized that I was lying on the ground. I was about to get up when I felt a weight on my chest. ‘Not good. Not good. Not good!’ My mind repeated as I laid there with Fleur's ass almost touching the bulge in my pants. Luckily or un-luckily, she was still asleep. I unwrapped my arms from around her and tried to move her off of me. She stirred and I stopped. “Mmm, Dan. You feel so good. Mmm~” I felt my face heat up as I heard her speak in almost a moan. Going slower than before, I moved her off of me. When she finally got off, I took out my phone and turned on the flashlight. “Now, to find out where we are.” I said moving the flashlight to first the ceiling to see streamers. For some reason, my mind flashed back to the Fanfic that would give Nightmare moon Night terrors. “Cupcakes.” I whispered as my mind flashed back to the youtube video of Pinkie Pie/Surprise's ‘party’ chamber. I clenched my fist and yelled out. “Alright. Come on out. I know you're out there.” I yell out as I move to Fleur. I got down on a knee and nudged her awake. “Fleur, come on, we need to go.” I whisper to her. “Hmm, huh wha?” She slurs as she wakes up. She shakes her head and looks at me confused. “Dan? What's wrong? Why is it so dark?” She asks. “I don't know but I have a bad feeling about it. Come on, we need to get out of here.” I respond as I stand up. I hold my hand out for Fleur and she takes it. I pull her up and once she's standing the lights come on, blinding us. We hear a chorus of “SURPRISE!” but the sudden light makes me stumble and hit something, making it crash to the floor. Once my vision clears I see I had bumped into a snacks table and I had knocked over a punch bowl. “What the?” I mutter under my breath as I look around to see many eyes staring at me. So many eyes. Staring at me. Staring. Staring. Judging. Criticising. I stumble again as I turn and look for an exit, my breathing accelerating. I see a door but it was blocked by many ponies. More eyes. Staring. Watching. My breathing accelerates more as somepony touches my shoulder, making me jerk away. Voices are muffled as I keep turning, looking at the eyes staring at me. Staring. Laughing. At who? At me. Kicking. Punching. Teasing. I hold my head and clench my eyes shut as I start to curl up but still standing. I hear a flap of wings and something slaps me, hard. My senses return to me as I shake my head. “Huh? Wha- What's going on?” I say shakily as my vision blurs a bit. “Dan, calm down!” I hear Rainbow Dash say. My eyes snap to her gorgeous magenta eyes. Though my eyes were still wild and frantic. She grabbed my head in her hooves and made me stare into her eyes. My breathing started to slow as I looked into her eyes. Once my breathing returned to normal she let go of my head and hugged me, wings wrapping around my torso. “It's alright. Shh, it's alright.” Rainbow Dash said soothingly as I finally calmed down. I sat down and hugged Rainbow back, my body shaking every so often. I heard hooves approach me but I just put my head into Dash's shoulder and hugged her tighter. “Oof, easy on the hug there big guy.” Rainbow wheezed a little. I didn't respond. “Dan, are you alright?” Asked Applejack. I whispered into Dash's ear. “He said he doesn't like being the center of attention. Like, in a very large crowd. If past experiences with Fluttershy has told me anything, I think he had a panic attack. And by the looks of it, a very bad one.” Rainbow said as she patted my back. “Alright big guy, getting a little hard to breathe.” I loosened the hug, but only a small bit. “Shoot sugarcube. We didn't know. We're mighty sorry.” I lifted my head and looked at her worried face. I opened my arm up in the universal ‘hug?’ gesture. She walked up to us and joined the hug. I hugged them both tightly and laid my head on their shoulders. I inhaled their scent and sighed in happiness. Applejack of course smelled like apples but I caught hints of cinnamon in there. Rainbow smelled like… well she is a bit hard to describe. It's like if clouds had a smell, she would smell like them. So I don't really have anything to compare her to. But nevertheless, she smelled good. I sat there, hugging them for a bit, letting my nerves calm down. I took a shaky breath and let go of the hug. “I- I'm alright. I just don't like so many eyes staring at me.” I explain to the two. They backed up and I stood up on shaky legs. They felt almost like jello with how much they were shaking. I take calming breaths as I closed my eyes. I felt a hoof on my shoulder and turned to see Rainbow flying beside me. I felt something on my other side and saw Applejack rub her head against my hand. I smiled as I knew these two would stay by my side. With a reassuring glance from them, I stepped forward, prepared to handle this party now that I had friends by my side. Author's Note Sorry that this came out so late and it is not as long as my usual chapters. Things are happening that are not in my control that is hindering my time to write.
