Logan was a skinny kid but no one bothered to bully him he was too fast to catch. He was a good student in high school and got mostly A's. Logan had a personality like no other he was always willing to help anybody, most of the time to help his friends he would listen to them and agree out loud even if he really disagreed with them. he would let them go on about how stupid he or others were and what's wrong in their life. The only problems he had were his own, but no one would listen to him. Still he was okay with it. Logan loved to make others feel better. He had dark blond hair and white but not pale skin, but what people really loved about him was his wonderful blue eyes and soothing voice. His friends asked him to do a few hypnosis videos with his voice in it, and of course Logan said yes. He wanted his friends to take all the credit but they insisted he take credit and tell viewers who he was at the end of the 8th video. People were shocked that he was just 15 years old and Logan was shocked that most of the other high schoolers from his school were viewers or listeners of his videos. Too bad his own voice didn't sooth him, to get his anger out he would read and play video games. If he wasn't reading or playing games he was playing his favorite sport, hockey. Logan's friends never questioned his method of releasing his anger because it would make him angry and he would take it out on the person who made him very very angry. Logan would usually get angry when bullies pushed his friends around. Only once did it lead to violence and it only took that one time for people to understand not to push him or his friends around. Logan remembered that day all too well. He remembered it because he got himself out of deep trouble, he hurt the guy so badly and it happened yesterday at band camp. Yesterday It was almost to the end of band camp 8 hours for 5 days and it was almost over. Out of the corner of his eye Logan could see someone he didn't recognize. 'Must be new,' Logan thought, 'I guess I'll be adding someone new to my list of friends' As he came closer Logan could see he was very tall, Logan could see he was only 3/4 the kids height. Logan saw he had big muscles and must be very strong. After everyone was dismissed Logan put away his trombone and went over to talk to the new kid. "Hi, I'm Logan," Logan said, "and I'm going to be a sophomore" "Sup I'm Mike," the new kid said, "I'm going to be a senior that means I shouldn't talk to you. "Why?" Logan asked. "Because I'm not going to," Mike said crossing his arms, "if I did I would be lowering myself to a looser like you." Logan ignored this and started reasoning. "I have tons of friends that are seniors," Logan said. "Then they're losers," Mike replied. "Then you're calling us losers," a girl said Logan knew it was Jess and with her was her sister. Mike turned around and started laughing, "I thought you only lowered yourself to a loser, but you are a loser. You both are so small and fat." They were small and a little tubby but not fat. "Hey!" Logan said getting a little angry, "They aren't fat" "Yes they are," Mike said, "This ones so fat I could roll her like a ball" Mike pointed his thumb at Jess's sister. "You're very wrong and very mean," Logan said. "Oh yeah," Mike said, "Watch this." Before anyone could do or say something Mike pushed Jess's sister onto the ground. Logan rushed over to help her up, his anger ready to be used. "Hey!" Jess shouted getting closer to Mike, "You can't push over my sister!" "Shut up, you fat ass midget!" Mike yelled and punched Jess in the face. This sent Logan over the edge. "SHUT UP YOU WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT!" Logan yelled and ran at Mike in that short distance he felt his anger give him more strength than ever, and he knew how to use it. Logan delivered a punch to Mike's right eye with his left hand. With the right side of Mike's face still showing Logan punched Mike's right eye again with his right hand. Mike leaned back covering his eye. Seeing the opportunity Logan punched Mike's upper legs and upper arms. Mike lurched forward as Logan predicted who delivered his right knee into the left half of Mike's face. Mike stumbled back his right eye already beginning to rapidly swell. "Hey," Logan said, "make a triangle with your thumbs and pointer fingers, look through it with both eyes open and put my nose in the triangle." Mike did what Logan told him to do quickly so he could go back to rubbing his face. "Now what the fuck did that accomplish?" Mike asked. "Whichever eye I can see most is your dominant eye which was your right eye." Logan explained "So my right eye is dominant," Mike said, "So what?" "So that means your right eye helps you most," Logan explained, "Which also means your right hand is probably your dominant hand" "That still doesn't explain anything why you punched my right side," Mike snapped "Oh, but it does," Logan said, "By punching you in the right eye and making it swell closed, I take away your good eye and leave you with poor perception of depth and center balance." Logan was right, Mike couldn't open his right eye and he was leaning off balance to the left. "With your legs and arms hurt it will be hard to give punches and kick as well as slow you down" Even though Logan was right Mike still charged trying to punch him. Logan moved a little to the left and dodged the right arm punch and garbed Mike's right wrist. Then using his other arm Logan elbowed Mike on the center of the lower arm. Logan moved behind Mike and towards the bleachers. Mike again charged and tried to punch with his left arm. Logan again dodged this and grabbed Mike's arm swinging him face first into the chain link fence. Mike tried to punch again barely missing Logan and hitting the fence. Mike ignored Logan for a short time, clutching his fist. Logan climbed much of the fence and kicked Mike in the nose while still holding on. Logan got to the top of the fence and jump, Mike looked up to see Logan put all his downward momentum and leg power to kick and land on Mike's face. Mike slowly got up and look to see Logan standing. "Don't you ever," Logan started the last three punches "Hurt," one punch Mike stumbled back, "My," second punch Mike stumbled back and was on the verge of unconsciousness, "Friends." one final punch Logan felt and heard the crack of bone and Mike was unconscious before he hit the ground. Today The only way Logan didn't get in trouble was because he and his friends claimed they had fought out of self defense. Logan decided to play some Battlefield 3. Quickmatch, game mode and map "surprise me," Logan said. Operation Firestorm 500% tickets. 'A long game,' Logan thought, 'Plenty of time for me to kill' Logan chose to snipe with a rifle scope, flash suppressor, and slugs. Logan went to the top of the mountain near the US deployment. Scanning around he saw someone running on the highway. 'easy pickings' Logan thought He fired one shot to see the distance he fired a second one and missed, the third one hit 'hotthorns (870MCS) NightRuler1000' and he was soon sniped off. Logan got into the support chopper that was flying over the RU deployment when he spotted a jeep he shot at it an wasted half of his ammo until as it was going up the hill he hit the driver 'hotthorns (870MCS) NightRuler1000' The pilot was then going low in the RU base, Logan decided to jump out and go for an enemy jet he. Jumped out and saw and enemy heading for the jet. Logan touched the ground just in time to knife the enemy and barely get in the jet. Once in the jet he noticed who he killed 'hotthorns (ACB-90) NightRuler1000' unlucky for them. Logan got off the ground only to accidentally fly into an enemy support chopper disabling his jet, he spotted the first person and flew straight into them. Once again he killed NightRuler1000, over and over and over again Logan kept running into NightRuler1000 and over and over he kept killing him or her... probably a her. Latter on in the match he looked up to see his entire team was being annihilated by NightRuler1000. Logan hoped she didn't find him, too late she was right in front of him with a USAS-12. Logan ran from cover to cover as NightRuler1000 went through clip after clip. Then an idea popped into his head "defib time!" Logan said. He ran straight at NightRuler1000 who missed every shot and shocked her to death. He couldn't believe it worked but it did. He started jumping up and down when all of the sudden the TV started blacking out like a loose light bulb. then electricity shot out of the TV shocking Logan constantly not sure of how he was still alive or would be alive after he wait and started to notice that the electricity hurt less and less. Then he was lifted off the ground and slowly felt his body collapse as it was sucked into the TV 'Never thought I'd go out like this' was the last thought that went through Logan's mind before he was completely sucked into the TV Celestia's Rage"Loooggannn," a soft voice said, "Loogaann," Logan was trying his hardest to open his eyes. "Come on Logan we're here" Logan finally opened his eyes. "So tired," he groaned "Of course you're tired," Fluttershy said "After all you fell from the sky and you recovered quickly that must have taken alot of your energy, then you killed all the timberwolves on the train, and you only got a total of four hours of sleep so far. That's probably why your tired." "Thank you for summing that up," Logan said, "And I didn't kill all of them; I killed most of them. the guards killed one of them." "Plus the two that came when you left." Fluttershy said. Logan noticed a dark spot in the carpet floor. "Fluttershy, what's that?" Logan asked gesturing to the dark spot. "That's where I slept," Fluttershy said, "I got scared and thought that more timberwolves were going to attack. So I slept with you." "But nothing happened right?" Logan felt a little stupid for asking. "Um, no, well, yes," Fluttershy said, "you see I was just curious and thought it couldn't hurt so I-" Fluttershy gestured toward Logan's pants. "Oh no, hell no, you didn't-" Fluttershy nodded her head,"oh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh!!!" Logan was interrupted by violent giggling. He looked over to see Twilight and friends giggling. "DON'T TELL ME ALL OF YOU TOO!!!" the mares stopped then looked at each other and started laughing hysterically. "It was a joke silly," Pinkie said. "I don't find it funny!" Logan shouted, "You almost gave me a heart attack! Do you know how terrifying that is? Just what would you think if you heard this 'wake up Pinkie we're almost at are destination, oh and by the way, you did the deed with a human while you were asleep'" The five mares looked at Pinkie and started laughing even harder. Pinkie turned scarlet. "Ah, ah, ah can't breathe." Panted Applejack between laughs. "Okay," Logan said, "We cool?" The six mares nodded "Can we ask you a few questions?" Rainbow dash asked, "Like how are you so good at fighting?" "And how did you hit that timberwolf in the face with an axe?" Applejack asked. "And darling how did you survive?" Rarity added "First off fighting doesn't take all guts and force, alot of it is also planning, like when an enemy swings at you're head from the side you have two three options: one, duck and deliver a low blow; two, move back and deliver a high blow; or three, take the hit. Once your enemy starts to get wounded he starts to throw strategy out the window, that's when you can start to finish him or her off." "But what about-" Applejack started. "I know I didn't forget your question," Logan said reassuringly, "When throwing that axe you have to know your distance and where to aim." "How do you aim," Rainbow asked doubtingly. "When you're swinging an axe from the bottom, there is going to be lots of momentum at the head if you swing it hard enough. You just need to let go of that momentum at the right moment. Pointing your arm at your target usually works." Rarity open her mouth to speak but Logan stopped her, "I didn't forget about your question either. When your life is on the line you need to try to be perfect. Your motivation, not dying... and preventing others from dying." Logan finally brought up his questions to ask. "So where are we going? I never bothered to ask." "We're going to see the princesses," Twilight said looking proud that she answered the question. "That doesn't sound like a town to me," Logan said. "It's called Canterlot, it's the capital Equestria." Twilight said. "You seem to know alot of stuff about where we're going." Logan said, "have you been there before?" "I used to live there," Twilight said proudly, "I became princess Celestia's pupil then she sent me to Ponyville to learn about the magic of friendship." "Princesses?" Logan said, "What is this a fairy tale? What's their special talents? One is good at sucking the other is good at blowing. It gives a whole new meaning to royal affairs." All of them had their jaw dropped except for Pinkie who was laughing with a few snorts in between. "See Pinkie gets it" none of them responded, "Okay I'm sorry for insulting your princesses. So what is their special talents?" "Princess Celestia raises the sun and Princess Luna raises the moon." Twilight said. "I've always had this obsession about the moon and space and... the whole world!" Logan said, "The moon is so mysterious and beautiful, space is interesting you're weightless in space, and the world... so many things to do so many sights to see. The world is just... awesome." "What are you most obsessed about," Pinkie asked curiously. Logan thought for a moment, "The moon." He walked to the back of the car and stared up at the moon in wonderment. He remembered a song he heard on the discovery channel called the world is just awesome. Logan started to hum the song and immediately got it stuck in his head. "Watcha singin'?" Pinkie asked. "A song that got stuck in my head," Logan answered "Ooh lets hear it," Pinkie said. "No no" Logan said. "Yes yes" Pinkie insisted, the other mares joined in. "Fine fine." Logan said, "It starts off with two astronauts" Rainbow interrupted "What are astronauts" "They're like... pilots but they fly into space and sometimes the moon. They're looking at the world and it's so cool. 'never get old huh' 'nope?' it kinda makes you want to-' 'break into song' yup'" Logan broke into a song unfamiliar to the ponies. The mares looked at Logan in wonderment. "You have a lot of things to love," Pinkie said Logan nodded his head. "So what kind of technology do you have?" "The princesses have computers and Ponystation 3." Twilight said. "What technology do you have." "Technology that I own," Logan said, "I have two old computers, a TV, and a laptop in my backpack" Logan pressed to power button but nothing happened "that is dead. technology I don't own: Cars, trains, planes, Cell phones. so many things." "Are you a prince?" Pinkie asked Logan laugh, "No, I'm not a prince our system of government doesn't have king or queens it's more complicated. I'm just a normal 15 year old, well sorta normal" "Now arriving at Canterlot." a voice in a loudspeaker said. "Oh good," Logan said, "You have loud speakers." They walked out of the Canterlot train station. Logan follow behind Twilight looking at all the buildings. There must be hundreds of them. Then he noticed that the other ponies had looks of terror, sadness, and anger. "Twilight," Logan whispered, "put the restraints on my wrists." "What why?" Twilight asked. "I've seen the looks on other ponies faces." Logan said. "I don't understand." Twilight said. "Think about this," Logan said, "You see an enemy walk into your capital but with no restraints." "My immediate thought would be that the war is over or terms of surrender are to take place." Twilight said "But you don't know who is surrendering." Logan said. "No restraints" Twilight insisted. As they were walking along something hit Logan in the back of the head. Turned around and saw an apple coming down he caught it. 'This is probably what hit me in the head.' Logan thought he looked around and found a pony at and apple stand giving him an angry glare. Logan looked at the apple. Then began eating it. he hadn't eaten anything since he was sucked into this world. "That backfired," Logan said, and caught up with Twilight. Finally they stopped at a big door with guards in front. They didn't see Logan so they opened the door. They and let the six in then were distracted by a pegasus flying too close to the palace as they closed the doors Logan barely squeezed through. Logan was far behind and ran to catch up. They stopped in front of another large door with no guards. Twilight knocked on the door and waited. Then a white pony with a horn and wings opened the door, her mane and tail were a sparkling with mixed colors, Light blue on top, aquamarine, more light blue then light pink. She frowned at Logan and pointed her horn at him which started to glow. She was going to laser him or something it was obvious she was charging an attack. Logan grabbed her horn with his thumb and pointer finger by the end and tilted her head up so that she was looking at him and her attack was aimed at the ceiling. Logan smiled and waved. Celestia had a surprised look on her face. It then returned to her frown and she aimed at Logan again. Logan tilted her horn up again. Celestia put it down. Logan put it up. Celestia put it down. Logan got an idea. he pushed her horn down a little. Celestia put it all the way up. *pew* she shot the ceiling. "Let's start in a non-violent way," Logan said. In response Celestia pointed her horn at him again and began charging quicker. 'She's just going to keep aiming at me until she hits, that means I have to let her. This is gonna smart.' he thought to himself. Celestia was almost done charging. Logan sighed, "It's nice to meet you too." *pew* Celestia shot. Logan went flying across the large room. He flew 150 feet before hitting a wall making a dent in the stone. Logan opened his eyes slowly. "Ooh that burned." Logan groaned. The dent was at lest two and a half stories up and was deep enough to sit in. Logan sat down with his legs crossed and rubbed his head. "Are you okay," Rainbow Dash asked flying up and looking at Logan, Celestia had a look of suprise and terror. "Y-you can control their minds?!" Celestia said shocked Rainbow Dash. "Uh, sorta," Logan said, "It's more popularly know as making some friends. I can't believe you sent Twilight to study friendship, you should have went if this is how you introduce yourself: with a laser!" The mares started giggling. Celestia gave them a big scolding face which made them all stop and look away. "What is all the noise, sister," a voice said, another pony with a horn and wings. She was dark blue with a starry dark blue mane and tail which were surrounded by clear dark blue, and her eyes, Logan had seen others with blue eyes but he never felt as calm as when he was looking at her eyes. ' Is this what they felt when they said they felt calm looking into my eyes?' Logan wondered, 'I could stare at those eyes forever.' Logan was snapped out of his trance when the dark pony screamed "Human!" the dark pony started to charge an attack. "Oh... crap." *pew* the dark pony made the dent in the stone deeper. Logan's groaning voice echoed out from the dent, "It's nice to meet you too." Logan noticed the two magic beams felt different, Celestia's was very hot and probably burned him, the dark ponies was freezing and gave him freeze burn as if it were dry. 'Why is this wall so thick, and how did I make a dent in it without being killed' Logan wondered. He kicked the stone and it broke. 'It's weak stone. It's not for defense it's for looks.' "No no, Princess Celestia, Princess Luna stop!" Twilight shouted. "He's nice, he's good to us." "Oh really," Luna said, "Tia, did you tell them what the last human did when he came here?" Celestia shook her head, "You didn't even tell me why you wanted to see the human. and why humans are dangerous" Twilight said, "It just said, bring the human to Canterlot, and be careful humans are dangerous." "Long ago," Celestia started, "Before Luna was banished the first human came to Equestria. We welcomed him in then he disappeared for a year and came back with an army and tried to take over Equestria. He almost won." "Why say almost?" Logan asked, "Almost isn't completely, so just say he lost, it's that simple. What was this guy wearing when he came here?" "Why do you need to know? Luna asked. "'Cause it might give me hints as to which time period he cam from." "He was wearing chain mail armor all around with iron helmet, chest plate, leggings, and boots. He also had a sword and shield." Luna said. "He was probably from the medieval or dark ages." Logan said, "No wonder he tried to take over your land. In those times everyone was trying to gain land. That's what the textbook told me. All the land has be taken for a long time, the only wars are in developing countries and countries with corrupt government." Logan walked to the edge of the dent and looked down, "That's quite a drop." he said. "You need me to carry you down?" Rainbow asked. "Can you hold my weight?" "I'll try" Logan let Rainbow grab him from under the arms and slowly began the descent "So... heavy" They were still a half story up small enough of a drop. "Rainbow let go," Logan said. Rainbow let go and Logan landed on one knee with his hands as extra cushioning. 'Always wanted to do that,' he thought to himself. Logan stood up and the six mares rushed to him to see if he was alright. "Twilight Sparkle!" Celestia scolded, "Get away from the human right now!" Twilight hesitated, "No!" she shouted. "He saved everypony's lives on the train ride here from timberwolves, even the guards." Luna looked at Logan's clothes it was true. Not only were there countless holes in his pants and shirt but his clothes had his blood and was covered in green timberwolf blood. Luna was thankful that Logan saved them, even though he was a human. Celestia, however, didn't care. Celestia's horn glowed ready to teach her disobedient student a lesson. "Hey princess Molestia," Logan said trying to get her attention and tire her out. Luna snickered trying to hold a laugh "What did you just call me?!" She shouted. "Come get some," Logan taunted sticking his tongue out. Luna started to laugh Celestia didn't bother charging she shot and Logan dodged it. "She's the co-ruler of Equestria, yet she can't even hit the inside of a barn." Luna doubled over still laughing. Celestia charged Logan trying to impale him on her horn. Logan ran to the wall and just before she hit him he moved out of the way. Celestia rammed into the wall she tried to look at Logan but she couldn't her horn was stuck in the wall. Celestia finally noticed Luna was laughing "My sides," she said between laughs, "I have not laughed this hard since I scared Rainbow Dash on nightmare night." Logan looked at Celestia, "Here let me help you," he said thinking the rage was over. Logan got her horn out, "There we go! Now that we're done accusing-" Logan was stopped when Celestia impaled him in the stomach with her horn. "No sister!" Luna shouted firing a bolt of lightning at her causing Celestia to withdraw her horn. Logan dropped to his knees putting pressure on the wound to keep blood in to no avail as the blood seeped between his fingers. Logan fell to his side the last thing he saw was Luna standing over him. "I got stop this black out streak." he said quietly. Luna giggled, then he blacked out. The Gigawatt Hammer"We have lost the objective." "Heads up C4 blowin" Logan heard familiar sounds. He hadn't moved yet, wait, that sounded like it was Battlefield 3 he must have fallen asleep while playing. There was one problem, he was in a bed, and a damn comfortable bed, much more comfortable than his top bunk at home. Logan opened his eyes and looked around, he wasn't home. It was night time, the moon was up and he was in a room a big one. "Okay I've got the C4 ready," a voice said, Logan looked over to see Princess Luna and another pony stitting at a TV with controllers. The pony had a horn and wings, and was light pink with different colors in her mane and tail banana yellow, violet, and purple. Logan sat up and felt pain everywhere, legs, arms, torso, even face, "Ahhh, my everything," he groaned. "Oh he's awake," Luna said, "how are you feeling?" "Like crap." "Well duh," The pink pony said, "Luna told me what happened and I think you are very brave and very lucky to be alive," "Who are you?" Logan asked. "This is Princess Cadence." Luna said. "She's not going to laser me too, right?" Logan asked. Luna laughed "No she's not going to laser you," "Finally," Logan said, "laser free" "Honey," a voice said, a White unicorn with a blue mane and tail walked in, "I've been looking all over for you," then he saw Logan "human" his horn started to glow. Logan knew another laser was coming. "Oh, so close," Logan said, *pew* the blast hit Logan square in his exposed chest and shot him out of bed and tumbling over the balcony outside the room. Logan tumbled over the stone rail backwards and was barely able to grab the bit of floor hanging out. Logan dangled their for a moment. "Don't look down, don't look down, don't look-" Logan looked down, he was on a mountain, only holding his life by one hand. "Why would you build a city on a mountain!?" Logan shouted as he grabbed on with his right hand and started pulling himself up. He heaved himself up onto the stone railing and looked up to see the unicorn who fired again shooting Logan far away from the city. Logan fell towards the ground. He was far above the clouds. Logan was sure he wouldn't live through this so he took the opportunity and went into position he saw sky divers do on TV. It felt like flying then he saw Luna falling with him she smile "Enjoy this," she said "it will take 15 full minutes to reach the ground." Logan started to sing again. Luna decided to join him in the last lines. Logan felt something under him, he saw Luna knew she was going to go back up. "Hold on tight!" she yelled with one flap of her wings she broke the sound barrier. Luna went shooting up and Logan saw the castle within seconds. They slowed slowed down and safely landed on the balcony. "And that is a sonic rainboom." Luna said proudly. The white unicorn had left but Cadence hadn't. Logan looked down and then realized he was only wearing his boxers, and hid behind the nearest object. Luna put on an evil grin "that's not the closest I've been to your member" Logan's head spun to look at Luna who pecked his cheek. "Say what?" Logan said looking at his boxers. "when?!" "When I decided to wash the blood out of your clothes." Luna said "I knew I there wouldn't be enough time to make new clothes so I had them washed, I had your boxers washed as fast as possible." "Wait you got my boxers off?! Logan asked. "Who saw-" Logan gestured towards he boxers. "Only us two," Luna said, "And it was quite a big thick one too." Logan thought his cheeks were boiling. "You would remember." Cadence said, "After all you were the one who wouldn't stop playing with it." Luna hid her face and Logan wanted his head to explode. "You kept playing with it even after it got hard. It was like you were about to do the deed." "I-i-it was for scientific data." Luna said. "Yeah right!" Cadence laughed, "If I wasn't there I know you would have fucked him." "CHANGE TOPIC!" Logan shouted. "Oohoohoo, someones getting aroused." Cadence said. Logan looked down, dear god she was right Logan tried to push it down so it was less noticeable but only succeeded in pushing it out the middle of his boxers into plain sight. Cadence looked away, Luna looked at it. "Looks like Luna is willing to help you with that." Logan put his member back in his boxers, and looked around trying to find extra cover. "It's no big deal." Luna said, "we're naked" Logan's mind started filling in gaps girls to mares. Logan stared into Luna's eyes and she stared into his. He felt calm again. Luna walked to the bed, lied down on one side and gestured Logan to come and lay down with her. Logan didn't object he was too calm so he walked over and lied down on his side still looking into each others eyes. "Are you okay?" Cadence asked. "I feel so calm looking into your eyes," Logan said to Luna "Me too" Luna agreed "I let you two get to it then." Cadence teased, no response. "I'm going to see if Logan's clothes are clean." Then Cadence walked out of the room. They stared into each others eyes not saying anything. Then Luna leaned forward then planted her lips on Logan's. At first Logan was hesitant but then he started returning the kiss. Logan widened the gap between his teeth a bit, as soon as he did Luna thrust her tongue into his mouth and began exploring it. Logan began to do the same, after what seemed like forever or at least an hour Luna broke the kiss. She blushed realizing what she had just done. Logan felt bad that she was upset a little, "You were wonderful," Logan said in a calm voice. "So...," Luna started, "You wanna play some video games, maybe Battlepony 3 on the Pony Station 3?" "Sure," Logan said, he and Luna walked to two of the three TVs. Logan looked at the PS3 it looked the same as his from back home. "The technology is similar, maybe the same," Logan said. "You can use my sister's account," Luna said. "Hold on," Logan said, "if the technology is the same, maybe I can log on to my account." Logan made a new user and typed in email and password. He waited for what was no less than a second before in the top right hand corner of the screen a notice popped up. 'signed in'. "Oh ho oh yeah," Logan said, "What's your account name? If I can sign in, I can probably add you to my friends list." Luna started tearing up, "You consider me a friend?" "Heck yeah," Logan said, "You helped me so much and we kissed. You're a friend, and maybe more." Luna blushed "So what's your account name?" "NightRuler1000," Luna said, Logan immediately recognized the name. 'She may still be angry from all that luck I had,' Logan thought to himself, unknowingly Logan made a worried face. "What's wrong?" Luna asked noticing something was troubling Logan. Logan didn't respond at first but then again she would find put better be now that put it off. "I'm worried you'll recognize my account name and not want to be my friend for it." "Why? What's your account name?" Luna asked. "Don't laser me when I show you," Logan said. "I won't," Luna reassured. Logan sent the friend request. Luna looked at the top right of her screen and looked at the name, hotthorns. Luna's jaw hit the floor. "You're the one who-" "Kept getting extremely lucky," Logan finished. "Please tell me I'm still your friend." Luna put a straight face and spoke, "I'm still your friend," Logan breathed a sigh of relief, then Luna put on a playful smile, "But that doesn't mean I can't get revenge." Luna pushed Logan onto his back with her magic then sat on his legs just below his pelvis and used her front hooves to pin his arms. Her horn started to glow. "Hey you promised no lasers," Logan said nervously. "You never said I couldn't zap you" Luna said grinning. "How much?" Logan asked, Luna shot a show of lightning out the balcony. "But that's too much, It will stop my heart and kill me!" "I know," Luna said, "But I can restart it too. Tell me what the afterlife was like when you get back!" Luna shot lighting into Logan. He had never felt such a sensation. It was light he could feel his the electricity in his blood. Logan wished the electricity would stay away from his heart, he knew it wouldn't though, he would be dead when Luna stopped electrocuting him, but his heart should be racing and it wasn't, it seemed normal to him. Logan willed the electricity out, he tried to think positive and imagined some of the electricity bursting out like an electric pulse to shock Luna not to hurt her, just to stop her, then Logan tried commanding the electricity to do so. Suddenly something burst out from his chest it was a blue thin sheet of electricity around him like a ball. It didn't do anything to him as it burst outward Logan wasn't sure if it went through him or just passed over him. It took less than a second to reach Luna, when it did, she stopped shocking him and her body shook for a second. Luna took a moment to collect herself then looked at Logan in awe and curiosity. "What was that?!" she exclaimed. "What!" Logan shouted hoping nothing was wrong. "I can feel my magic electricity," Luna said, "But when I started shocking you the electricity wasn't coming out and I lost it inside of your body," Logan gave her a confused look, Luna rolled her eyes, "I lost the electricity because your body absorbed it. Logan checked to see if he could feel any electricity in his body, "Nothing," Logan said, "Wait." then Logan felt it everywhere in his body were pockets or balls of electricity each connected to another or more by a stream of electricity. "I feel it, electricity is everywhere." "What did you do?" Luna asked, "After a few seconds of electrocuting you a ball of my lost electricity expanded out and shocked me," "I thought of a hollow ball of electricity expanding out and I tried to command the electricity to do it, and it worked." Logan said. "How can you control electricity." Luna pondered. Logan thought then it occurred to him that the electricity had sucked him into this world. "Luna," Logan said, "when I killed you with the defibrillator, what did you do?" "I got really angry," Luna said, "And zapped the TV with everything I had." "I got into this world by electricity coming out of my TV and sucking me in." Logan said, "Can you sense any of your magic?" "I can sense magic from over 1000 years ago," Luna said proudly. "Search my body for your magic from a few days ago" Logan said. Luna's closed her eyes and her horn lit up. "You have multiple magic scars," Luna said. "What are those?" Logan asked. "It's the term used when a body is given an overdoes of magic which leaves a mutation," Luna explained. "Can the mutation give special powers?" Logan asked. "I suppose so," Luna said. "So I have magic scars from a few days ago right?" Logan asked. Luna nodded her head, "I entered this world a few days ago," "So," Luna said trying to figure out what Logan was getting at. "So, you shot magic lightning at your TV and lightning came out of my TV and sucked me in here," Logan explained. Luna started to piece together the information, "Are you saying-" "Yes Luna, the lightning you shot at your TV was the lightning that sucked me in and gave me the magic scars." Logan explained. "So, I am the reason you thou art here, and the reason thee can command electricity?" Luna said nervously. "Yup," Logan said in confirmation. "Logan's clothes are-" Cadence stopped as she walked into the room and saw Logan and Luna, they then noticed Logan was still on his back and Luna was sitting on Logan's legs just below his pelvis with her front hooves pinning his arms, "Was I interrupting your fun, it looks like you two were about to get a little naughty in here." Cadence added with a sly grin. "WE WEREN'T DOING ANYTHING!!!" Luna and Logan both shouted. "Right," Cadence said. Luna got off Logan who got up. "Can I really control electricity?" Logan mumbled to himself. "What did you say?" Cadence asked. Logan said nothing instead he walked over out on the balcony, Luna and Cadence followed. Logan looked at his hand. He imagined shooting a small condensed orb of electricity shooting out of his fist and exploding on impact or when he open his hand. Logan looked up to see something flying in the sky. "Rainbow Dash?!" Logan called. "Yeah?" Rainbow called back. "What are you doing flying around so late?" Logan asked "Nothing," Rainbow said she disappeared be hind a cloud. "She's spying on us," Logan said. He directed electricity to his fist and and shot it through the cloud Rainbow had disappeared behind. He opened his and and a ball of electricity just about 15 feet in diameter blew away the clouds. Logan saw something and he motioned Luna and Candace to step back. Rainbow Dash landed on the balcony. "How did that feel?" Logan asked Rainbow. "It shocked me and shot me through the air" she said "I'm going to call it the gigawatt hammer" Logan said. "You did that?!" Cadence shouted in disbelief. "I guess have have some explaining to do" Logan said. "You can do that tomorrow night you must sleep now, can't have you seen at day or else ponies would freak out. By now all of our time schedules have turned to sleep at day and be awake at night. Plus we can practice on controlling your abilities tomorrow." Luna said. "I'm off to bed," Cadence said and left the room. "I guess I'm sleeping on the floor," Logan said "Oh no you don't," Luna said, "You're sleeping with me in my bed," Logan giggled childishly, "Not like that." "How old are you?" Logan asked as they climbed into bed "When I was changed back by the elements, I lost most of my age, I'm technically 15 now, just like you." "Good, because it makes this a whole lot less weirder." Logan kissed Luna, it took her by surprise but she started returning the kiss they explored each others mouth locking tongues a few times. After about thirty seconds they broke the kiss and Luna closed the blinds. "Even better the second time," Luna said A Medical Break ThroughLogan woke up the next night feeling like nothing had happened last night, like he never got hurt. He turned on his other side to look at Luna. Luna had a smile on her face and was facing him. Logan didn't know what time it was but it didn't matter he didn't know what time Luna woke up at. As if on cue Luna opened her eyes and looked at Logan while a smile, "Good morning." she said, In response Logan sent some electricity to warm her up and loosen up her muscles. "Does that hurt?" Logan asked "No," she said in a calm voice, "It feels like a massage," she pressed up against Logan, her fur was so soft and her mane was so smooth. Luna blushed realizing what she was doing, "I was cold," she lied, and pressed up even closer. There was a knock on the door, "Oh Luna," a voice called Logan recognized it as Celestia's, "It's time to raise the moon," Celestia opened the door and walk in she looked at Luna smiling with body pressed up against Logan's. "No lasers," Logan said. "I cuddled up to him," Luna said. "Nothing sexual happened right," Celestia said. "No nothing sexual, but we did kiss" Luna said as she got up, opened the blinds, and started to raise the moon. "Does that mean your together?" Celestia asked. "Yes dear sister, and not only does it mean we're together," Luna said as she finished raising the moon, "It also means I got a coltfriend or boyfriend before you," Luna stuck her tongue out at Celestia, "I guess this means I'm better at making friends than you." Celestia stared at her sister in disbelief, "But, but, but," She stuttered trying to get back at her sister. "Now off to bed," Luna said, "Are there any court duties to attend to?" "No," Celestia said sadly as she walked to the door. "Hey Tia," Luna said, "You wanna hear something shocking?" "Sure," Celestia said. "He's hotthorns," Luna said pointing her hoof at Logan. Celestia's jaw hit the floor. "I'm going to bed," Celestia said as she stormed out. Cadence walked in with in with Shining Armor. "No lasers" Logan said to Shining Armor. "What's with Celestia?" Cadence asked. "She just jealous that I got a coltfriend slash boyfriend before she did," Luna said, "What do you prefer coltfriend or boyfriend?" Luna asked Logan. "Whatever you're used to saying," Logan said "Now then," Luna said, "Let's see how those wounds are healing." Luna started unwrapping the bandage on his stomach where Celestia impaled him with her horn, "Now it's going to take some time to heal, so take it easy with-" Luna stopped when she had fully unwrapped the bandage. "Y-you're fully healed?" Logan looked down and was shocked to see the deep wound that Celestia had made was now done healing, there was not even scar tissue. "I think I have an explanation." Logan said. "Well than spit it out," Luna said, "It could save lives." "When I had crashed to the ground from the sky, Fluttershy said I was badly injured," Logan said, "But there was electricity all around my body, and the electricity on the wounds were making them heal faster. She said it took an hour. to fully heal, but it may have taken an hour because you overcharged me." "I did faint after electrocuting the TV," Luna said. "That's probably enough to do It," Logan said. Then Luna thought of something brilliant, "Hey," she said, "If the electricity was all over you and it took an hour to heal, would it go faster if you concentrated your electricity to one spot." "I don't know," Logan said. "Let's test it," Luna said pointing her horn at Logan. Logan dove behind the bed, "Nuh nuh nuh nuh!!!" he screamed. Luna doubled over laughing, "You sounded like a girl!" "I got a better idea," Logan said, "Are there any ponies at the hospital?" "Yes," Luna confirmed, "Why?" "What if, and I'm just thinking here, but what if could use my electricity to heal others too?" Luna thought for a moment, "I can see how you're getting this." Luna said, "If you can heal yourself can't you heal others." "But what if he kills them on accident?" Shining Armor pointed out. "He won't," Luna said reassuringly, "I'll prove it," Luna levitated a sword hanging on the wall and cut her cheek with it. "Okay," Logan said. he brought some electricity with the intention to heal. "Ready?" he asked to make sure Luna wanted to go through this. "I'm ready," Luna said with hint of nervousness in her voice. Logan decided the air was too heavy, "You know that conversation could have been in a different situation," Logan said with a sly grin. At first Luna didn't pick up onto what Logan was saying then she understood, Luna went red in the face, "Oh wow really Logan?!" Luna tackled Logan pinning him to the ground. "Oh it seems you want that situation now," Logan teased. "Not while I'm here lovebirds," Cadence said, "I may help ponies regain love but I don't want see what they do afterwards." "Alright," Logan said, "Let's see if this works, but first get off me please," Luna got off and Logan stood up. Logan focused the electricity to his hand and touched Luna's cheek, if felt odd he could not feel the cut on Luna's cheek with his hand, but he could feel it with his electricity. Focusing the electricity on the cut, Logan could feel it rapidly healing, he looked up to see if Luna noticed. Their eyes connected and they both blushed. At last Logan could feel that the cut was fully healed, he removed his hand to see the cut was gone. "How long did that take?" Logan asked to no pony in particular. "About ten seconds," Shining Armor responded. "Did it take a lot of electricity?" Luna asked. Logan checked to see how much he had left it was almost all gone, of course he didn't check in the morning to make sure he was full, plus the healing last night probably drained him. "I don't know if it took a lot," Logan said, "But I do know I'm almost empty, care to refill me," Luna nodded her head with a big smile, Logan imagined absorbing electricity through his hands. "Aim for my hands." "Ready?" Luna asked. "I'm ready," Logan said. Luna saw her chance for revenge, "You know that conversation could have been used in a different situation." she said. "Shut it and zap," Logan said, putting his hands close together in front of himself. Luna shot, Logan was absorbing the electricity but very slowly, he separated his hands which allowed him to absorb from two spots and sped up the process, finally Logan was fully recharge, "done," he shouted "That was only like three seconds," Luna said, "are you really done?" "Yeah," Logan said, "Fully recharged." Cadence grabbed Logan's arm and pulled him towards the door, "Come on we got ponies to heal," she said. She yanked Logan's arm again causing him to loose his balance and fall on his face. "Are you sure I should go looking like this?" Logan questioned. Cadence looked at him an saw he was only wearing his boxers. Logan stood up and looked around for his clothes "Where did I leave them last night?" Logan asked himself out loud. In response Luna threw his pants and shirt hitting him in the face. "We'll be out waiting for you," Cadence said dragging Shining Armor out with her. Logan walked over to the be and sat on the edge trying to figure out if his shirt and pants were inside out or not. Luna watched the door as she walked over to where Logan was sitting, making sure that no pony was around. She stood in front of Logan who was still trying to put on his clothes, Luna pushed Logan onto his back and lied down on top of him. "What is this?" Logan questioned, "Is pinning me to something going to be a hourly thing because-" Logan was cut off when Luna kissed him thrusting her tongue into his mouth and tried licking his entire tongue. Logan moved it around avoiding her tongue in a game. Eventually Luna got his tongue cornered in his cheek and fully licked it. They broke the kiss "-I could get used to it," Logan finished. "Oh there's much more where that came from," Luna said, "And if you heal a lot of ponies at the hospital I might give you something extra special," Luna added. "What do you mean 'extra special'?" Logan asked, in response Luna reached down and started rubbing Logan's groin area on his boxers, receiving a groan of pleasure. Luna got off Logan and let him finally get his clothes on. "Not so much pure and holy but I'm clean and holey," Logan joked, "Now I just need to find my shoes," "So, it seems you like baggy or loose clothes," Luna said, giving Logan his shoes with his socks in them. Logan wore wide shoes that skateboarders usually used, just because his foot was too wide for all the tennis shoes in a store. "I role with my own style, the only one that works for me, t-shirt and jeans, with wide shoes" Logan said, as the walked out the door and down a hallway. They then walked down some stairs to meet Cadence, Shining Armor, and two odd pegasi. Instead of regular pegasus wings they had bat wings, or dragon wings, and they looked very serious and unhappy, well most of the guards were anyways. They both looked at Logan with a deep hatred. "Logan, these are my two of my best friends, and my personal guards" Luna said, "Anvil, Hammer, we have a new addition to the our list of best friends," Immediately the look of hatred disappeared and was replaced with a look of acceptance. The six walked to the door and suddenly a thought popped into Logan's head, "Hey Luna where is Twilight and her friends?" "Five of them are in apartments. Rainbow Dash is in the hospital with a broken wing," Luna said she then turned to Anvil and Hammer, "Hey you wanna hear something shocking." "Sure," they both said "Okay, there's actually two shocking things, one I gave Logan a magic scar and now he can command electricity," Luna said, the two guards looked at Logan who sent some electricity sparking from his hands for a moment, then he stopped and turn to Luna, "Two Logan is a Plays Battlepony 3 and guess what his account name is," Luna pause for dramatic effect, "hottorns," The two guards jaws hit the floor, "You mean he-" Anvil started "Got super lucky," Logan finished. They finally were out into the city part of Canterlot. Luna led the way to the hospital, Logan kept stumbling over things he eyes hadn't adjusted fully to the dark. Luna slowed down to Logan. "Need some light?" Luna asked. "It takes some time for my eyes to adjust to the dark," Logan said. "Here," Luna said, "How's this?" her horn lit up for a moment then it was dark but only for a second then it was much easier to see. "What did you do?" Logan asked. "I cast a spell that will allow you to adjust your pupil giving you the ability to basically have night vision" Luna said, "The best part is it can only be removed by me and it never wears off," "Sweet," Logan said adjusting his vision now able to see clearly, it still felt like his pupils adjusted on their own. Logan now noticed that he could see basically everywhere, looking into alleyways and dark rooms he noticed some ponies were still awake. They looked at Luna but had a look of fear on their faces; however, when they looked at Logan they had a look of pure hatred just like Anvil and Hammer had but it was worse. "Just try to ignore them, " Luna said aware Logan noticed the glares. They kept walking until they came to a building Logan assumed was the hospital. They walked in and saw ponies some, holding a foreleg, or covering a cut. They looked at Logan first with and angry glare, then the injured ponies saw Luna, they dropped their forelegs of uncovered their cuts and bowed. "Rise," Luna said, they did as they were told and went back to covering cuts or holding breaks, Luna looked to Logan, "Ready to heal?" "Yup," Logan said, Luna looked around and for a pony to heal that would gain the other ponies trust. She saw a colt holding his foreleg with an impatient frustrated look on his face and a filly sucking on her foreleg with tears flowing down her face. "What's wrong young ones?" Luna asked the two. "I broke my foreleg," the colt said in a regular voice "And I go-got a p-paper cut," the filly said stuttering in between a few words to catch her breath from crying "We're twins," the colt said, "I got the brains, looks, guts, and she got... I don't now what she got." "Well my friend can have you all better in no time," Luna said smiling, "Logan," "Yeah?" "Help these young ones," Logan came into view and the young gasped and hid behind their parents. "I'm not going to bite," Logan said, "Now who is the one with the paper cut, I'll fix it," the little filly came out from behind her mother and approached Logan. "No don't," the colt said, "Remember what the comic said, he'll eat you," Logan chuckled, "First of all you have been reading way too many fiction books, second it looks like your sister got the guts, now where's the paper cut," the filly held out her foreleg to show a little cut with a bit of blood coming out. "Okay this might tickle a little," Logan said, bringing electricity to his hand. He placed it on the filly's paper cut and it stared to heal. The filly started laughing, "It tickles," she said, Logan lowered the amount of electricity and she stopped laughing. Finally the cut was done healing. The filly jumped over to her brother and started pushing him to Logan. He tried to get away as if he was being pushed towards a giant meat grinder. "Looks like you're the real sissy," Logan said trying to make the colt mad. "I'm no sissy," the colt said and he slowly held out a foreleg. "So what seems to be the problem?" Logan asked, trying to get the colt to come out of his isolation. "I broke it," the colt said drooping his head. "Okay this might tickle, how ticklish are you?" Logan asked. "Oh he's very ticklish." the filly said. "Low amount," Logan said to himself. He lightly grabbed the foreleg and sent some electricity to heal it but stopped, the bone was out of line. Okay this you bone is out of line so if I try to heal it right of the bat, it will look odd. So what I'm going to have to do is use my electricity to stop the nervous system from sending and receiving messages to the broken area." The colt gave him a confused look, he sighed, "I'm going to numb up your foreleg so you won't feel any pain when I readjust the bone," "Ohhhhhhhh,"" the colt said in understanding. Logan sent some electricity and blocked up the nervous system in the broken area, then he moved the bone down and to the left into place. He let the the colt regain feeling in his foreleg, then began healing. It took him five minutes to fully heal the colt's leg. The colt stood on it, then put all his weight on it, "HA HA THANKS!" he shouted with joy, by now the filly was asleep on her dad's back. "So," Logan said, "Who else wants to get healed?" hoofs shot into the air all around. "Let's get started," The Black Mass The Black Mass It was now one in the morning and Logan had just finished healing half of the patients at the hospital, and was almost out of electricity. "Is this town really this clumsy?" Logan asked as he finished healing a broken back leg. "There's just... a lot of ponies in Canterlot," Luna said yawning on after her first two words, "the more ponies there are the more often accidents happen." Logan noticed Luna was stuggling to stay awake, she was getting bored and standing in one place wasn't helping, she probably long to be back at the palace playing Battlepony 3. Her eyes fluttered as she tryed to keep them open, she yawned again as Logan began to heal a pony who accidentally cut herself with a knife. "You should go cack to the palace," Logan said, "you've been yawning since midnight," "And why would I do that?" Luna asked, "I could always say I would like to keep Rainbow Dash company and sleep in a chair next to her." Rainbow Dash, Logan hadn't healed her yet "Point taken," Logan said, "but it's not the best excuse," "Either way I'm going to use it now," Luna said walking away from Logan and toward the front desk. Logan could hear what they were saying, and it sounded like Rainbow Dash was the furthest from the front desk. Ironic that she broke a wing, most of the time she was talking she was also flying. Well at least she only broke her wing, if she was flying foreward and hit her head she could have been in real trouble. Logan remembered hearing that the you could break your spine if you hit a wall with your head down, and you only had to be going walking speed. Logan finished healing the pony who cut herself with a knife and moved on to the next pony. Ironicly, she was a nurse at the hopital, "What happened, to you?" Logan asked. "I bumped my nose, and now it won't stop bleeding" she said. Logan healed it in a matter of seconds and she stepped aside for the next pony. Then a device started beeping she looked at it and read aloud with a bit of confusion, "Rainbow Dash's heart rate sky rocketed," "Luna probably just walked in her room," Logan said, "your heart rate can increase from being supprised," "Princess Luna is still walking dow the hall," the nurse said, Logan looked down the hall Luna went and saw the she was entering the stairs of elevator. "Then she probably angry that she cant fly," Logan said, "your heart rate can increase from anger too." The nurse put her head down and a hoof on her shin and considered this, "It makes sense," she said, "Rainbow Dash was very upset when the doctors told her she broke her wing." Logan turned to the next pony in line and started healing a broken nose, then alowed himself to drift off into his own thoughts. Logan had been gone for two days now, he wondered if anyone noticed he was missing. "They never believe me if I told them the mess I'm in," Logan mumbled to himself, "it's way to abominable situation," The only way they would have the slightest chance of believing he fought and killed creatures that didn't exsist in his world was if he remined them of the beat down he gave Mike. Logan saw he was done healing the broken nose hen moved on to the next pony. She had stiches from the top of her chest, to the bottom of her belly, "Surgery?" Logan asked, receiving a nod. he began healing her alowing himself to slip into his thoughts again. 'I'm so grounded when or if I get home,' Logan thought to himself. Even though Logan made a few friends here, he missed many things, hockey, family, friends, but strangely the thing he missed most was his place as the punching bag, the complaint taker, and basically the social worker. Logan knew these unhappy thoughts would plague his mind, so he tried taking his mind off it, "Think of something completely off topic," Logan said to himself. He thought for a moment, "If you choke a smurf, what color will it turn?" He asked himself, and chuckled at the thought of it turning white. "A smurf?" the mare questioned, Logan nodded his head still chuckling, "Is that what their calling it now?" "Oh stop it!" Logan said in a loud whisper. All of the sudden Logan heard a familiar beeping sound but instead of one doctor or nurse it was all of them. Logan finished healing the mare and turned towards the group of doctors comparing devices, "What's wrong?" Logan asked. "Strange," One of them said, "All of our notifying devices say that the patients' heart rates are increasing and if we look at it room by room the next patient who heart reat will increase wil be-" The doctor's sentence was cut short by a shrill scream. It was so blood curdling that electricity flowed into his hands and lifted him of the ground for a second. He decided to figure out how that happened later somepony was terrified. Logna ran into the room where the scream came from which wasn't far. He looked around the room to see a dark black mass hovering over the frightened mares bed. "Hey ugly," Logan shouted, "what's wrong with you, scaring ponies like that," The black mass did nothing. Logan turn to the doctors for an answer of what it was, but all he saw was a look of sheer horror as they stared above him. "It's now righ behind me isn't it." the look on there face said yes, so he turned around. It was now right in front of him hovering in the air, from the dark mass Logan could see a face forming. It was not a pony it had six yellow eyes that sometimes looked orange from the lighting, its stare was soulless that of a cold blooded killer, only four could be seen when it looed at Logan. It had no nose just holes, and the teeth were long and sharp, stained with blood, with the front teeth similar to fangs. It stared at Logan who was trying his best to keep a straight face. It took a deep breath in and screamed, "RRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Blood and spit flew out of its mouth as it screamed jaw unhinged. It was like a gust of foul wind and almost blew Logan over. When it had finished it turned translucent and passed through Logan, it felt like his inards were either being torn apart on the inside or they were about to become his outards. Logan sent electricity to the spot it as passing through and shocked it, it only grunted in pain and left the hospital. Logan ran outside to persue it but it was gone. "What was THAT?!" one mare shouted. Logan didn't know but it didn't seem friendly, it might have been Death himself. Logan remembered hearing that Death could take on any shape or form, but he would always be followed by a trail of darkness. Logan turned and walked back to the people in line still waiting to e healed. Logan had finally noticed that he felt weak like his knees were about to give in at any moment. Logan told himself that THING was gone and his normal strength. Logan saw that all the fillies and colts were crying, he had to cheer them up. 'electric pulse,' Logan thought, 'better make it small though,' He gathered up all the young sent a few sparks into the air. The sparks popped in a four inch ball of translucent electricity. The colts wowed and the fillies giggled, Logan shot more sparks into the air all timed so the display would last longer as he walked to the front of the line to heal the next pony who had boken a few ribs. "So what was that thing?" The pony asked. "You tell me," Logan said, "this is your world not mine," Logan finished healing the pony and sent more sparks to the young before starting to heal the next pony. "What was that thing?" The mare asked, Logan saw this would keep happening. "If you ask me what that thing was you're wasting your time, I don't know!" Logan called out to the line of ponies. he began to heal the mare as quicly as possible hoping that Luna might have an answer. Logan turn his thoughts to that thing, those soulless yellow eyes, and razor sharp teeth, Logan thought for a second it might have come out of hell. Logan turned his thoughts away from the thing and turned them towards home. He missed playing and practicing hockey. He would probably need to retape the blade of his stick when or if he got back, and if he did, would he still have his powers? These thoughts also plagued his mind so he stopped thinking about his problems. Slowly but surely logan got to the last pony. "The great Trixie demands you heal her," the pony said. "How about 'please heal me' you pompus idiot," Logan said. He healed her but rapidly giving her a shock and poffy hair. Logan walked down the hall and up the stairs. Rainbow Dash's room was the furthest from the main door, probably to keep her from leaving. He had heard Rainbow Dash was not one to have a controlled temper or patience. She like to nose around in others business that was for sure. Logan walked in saw Luna's back turned to the door looking at Rainbow Dash who was in the corner with a look of sheer terror on her face. "Rainbow Dash? Luna?" Logan called in confusion, "What's wrong Rainbow?" "I-I-I sh-she," Rainbow tried to say, she turned back to Luna tears begining to flow out of her eyes, "p-pl-please, please!, PLEASE! DON'T KILL ME!" Rainbow's voice was a terrified scream. Her eyes went wide, "NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, I DON'T WANT TO DIE, I DON'T WANT TO DIE, I DON'T WANNA- AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" Rainbow let out a blood curdling scream as she collapsed to the floor. Her scream and crying stopped and she started sobbing. Rainbow looked up at Luna again and her eyes went wide with horror, "NO NOT AGAIN I'LL DO ANYTHING, NO, NO, NOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" another blood curdling scream, then her wide eyes instead of crying tears started crying blood. "Luna!" Logan screamed as he ran over to her, "what's happening to-" "RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" Logan was knocked back by an all too familiar roar. Luna turnedround and what Logan saw sent a chill of terror up his spine. Luna's body was still all there but her head was now that of the dark mass. Trail of BloodLogan didn't know if his mind refused to or couldn't accept the fact that the thing was on or morphed with Luna. Luna, was she dead now or was she still alive? What did the thing do to Rainbow Dash, was she still alive? Logan looked to Rainbow who was writhing on the floor slowly starting to curl up into a ball. Rainbow was only in shock but Luna, Logan wasn't sure. "Get off her!" Logan screamed his voice cracking a little, "Get off her, or out of her, or whatever!" "Okay, okay calm down sheesh," the thing said, it left Luna who started wobbling. Logan ran to her and caught her just before she hit the ground. Tears welling in his eyes Logan forgot the thing and looked at Luna in his arms. Her hair was over her eyes and Logan couldn't tell if they were open or not. He didn't want to know but he felt he had to. Logan bushed the hair away to see Luna's eyes were closed. "Oh... oh god," Logan sobbed, "Luna you better be okay," no response, "you have to be okay," no response, "please be okay... please... please," Logan repeatedly sobbed the word with no response. Logan turned his attention to the thing, he looked at it, he felt his anger hit and exceed a boiling point. Logan layed Luna's head down then bolted up looking at the thing, and it looked back not saying anything. Then before Logan thought about it his body swung his fist at the thing at an incredible speed feuled by anger. The punch was so hard that a normal person would have had not enough time to react and would probably be knocked out. The thing flinched after the punch passed through it, "Stupid boy," it growled, "you can only touch me when I allow you to," Logan realized it was right but remembered his electricity could. Logan directed electricity his fist and swung. The thing saw the punch coming but didn't move expecting the punch to go through itself, but it didn't count on electricity. The thing was sent spinning into a wall and out the other end. Logan knew it would come back so he directed electricity to his hands. Seconds latter it came back in with a cloak and a human like body, it was holding its head in pain. Logan let loose a stream of arcing and flowing electricity onto it. "AAAAAAHHHHHH!" the thing screamed in pain, "stop they're fine!" Logan didn't care he kept going but it wasn't long before he ran out of electricity. "They're alive," it said. Logan felt there was electricity still on the things body so Logan drew it out it. "I'll call that the overcharge," Logan said, now calm from his fit of rage but still upset. Logan sat down cross legged next to Luna and stroked her mane, tears begining to flow again down his cheek as he stay silent. The thing had gotten up and it had gotten angry, it picked Logan up by his neck and slamed him against the wall. The thing looked into his eyes obiously angry and ready to strike, but it didn't. As it looked into Logan's eyes the anger in its face slowly left and turned to different emotions understanding, then sadness. Logan broke his gaze from the thing and looked at Luna, her stomach didn't seem to be rising telling Logan she might not be breathing, she must be dead. The thing looked at Luna then back at Logan who was not on the verge of passing out because it was choking him. Logan saw the tunnel that he heard about when you were about to pass out. He saw the gray tunnel form around his peripheral vision slowly closing in as the gray turned to black. Then it began to subside, the tunnel was gone and he was breathing but not gasping for air. The thing had let go and Logan was laying on the floor. He used all his strength to crawl to Luna. Logan just lay there next to her before he put a hand on her cheek. "She fine kid," the thing said, "your marefriend is just tired," Logan said nothing but just looked at Luna. Then a question worked its way into his mind. "Why did you let go of me?" Logan asked. "I looked into your eyes and it reminded me of Luna courage and strength on the outside but under was a harsh past that wanted never to be mentioned. Luna wants to cover up-," the thing was stopped by Logan holding a hand up off the gound to keep him from countinuing and a look that told the thing Logan didn't want to hear it, "You have an unhappy past, lots of being pushed around and the results of it," Logan knew what he was mentioning, he had covered it up for so long that he almost forgot about it himself. In 5th grade after being pushed around for so long Logan wanted to fight back so he did. He won but it wasn't pretty sight. "So, who are you?" Logan said getting up, "and why are you here?" Logan was wobbling, his legs ready to give in. "I'm Death," it said grabbing Logan, who opened his mouth to speak but Death stopped him, "if I touch you I can kill you or heal you." With that Logan started to regain his strength. He picked up Rainbow Dash who squirmed to get comfortable in Logan's arms before he put her down on a bed and covered her with blankets, he did the same with Luna. Then he looked at Death. "So," Logan said, "why are you here?" "I'm here regularly," Death said, "ponies gotta die some time. Now let me wake them up." Logan looked at Death with a face that was questioning what Death did to the ponies, "Rainbow Dash I tortured, Luna I put to sleep will I visited Nightmare Moon," Logan gave him a confused look, "It'll all make sense soon," he said and with that he disappeared. He didn't wake up Rainbow or Luna, well Rainbow needed sleep. Logan went over to Luna and decided she would be much happier if she didn't wake up, but they needed to get to the palace. 'Only one option,' Logan thought to himself, 'carry Luna home.' Logan reached under her back and lifted her up. Even though she was almost as big as himself, she was light enough to carry. Logan walked down the hall with Luna in his arms, he didn't risk falling down stairs so he used the elevator. As he left the building some ponies looked at him confused as to why a human was carrying the princess of the night, he couldn't blame them. As he stepped outside into the cold air, Luna burried herself deeper into Logan's arms trying to keep warm. As he walked down the streets trying to remember the way back to the palace, Logan thought about what Death had said. 'What is Luna hiding?' Logan thought. Whatever it was, it hopefully wasn't as bad as what he did to those fifth graders. Logan barely remember the day himself, he had made such an effort to forget it. Finally, Logan found the palace. It was going to be hard to explain why he had a princess asleep in his arms he guessed, but then he saw Anvil and Hammer standing outside the gate. Like all the other ponies they gave him a confused stare. As Logan got close to them he whispered, "You're going to find this hard to believe, but I met Death and Luna's tired." The look of confusion didn't leave. "Can I explain everthing tomorrow my arms are getting tired." They didn't look like they were about to object so they lead him to Luna's chambers. They asumed Logan sletp with her, and they thought it was nice she had company. So they closed the door and left after all noone hated Luna, so she wouldn't be in any danger. Logan set her down on the bed and covered her with the blankets, She squeezed them get every comfortable ounce of warmth out. She looked peaceful, so Logan left her an went out onto the balcony looking up at the stars and moon. Logan found that blocking the light of the moon from his eyes opened up more stars. It was calming to gaze at. Just then something caught Logan's eye, something familliar. "Princess Celestia, how long have you been hidding?" Logan asked trying to sound as respectful as posible since he hadn't really met her yet. Celestia flew out from under the balcony and her face told Logan she didn't trust Logan, "I've been watching you ever since you left the hospital," She said flying closer to Logan with the angry look on her face growing, "I demand you tell me what happen at the hopital and you were carrying!" Logan showed no emotion as he spoke, "After you left, Luna got an idea. Your majesty do you remember when you impaled me with your horn." Celestia nodded her head, "Well, Luna is the reason I'm here. A few nights ago when she zap her TV and gave me a magic scar, But there were some side effects. I can control electricity, and when I get hurt the electricity rapidly heals me. That got princess Luna thinking, if I could heal myself with electricity could I heal others. She tested her theory and found she was correct, and upon finding this she demaned that I go to the hospital and heal ponies." "But why were you carrying Luna?" Celestia asked again. "After healing most of the ponies it had been a while, hours of inactivity made her tired so she went up to Rainbow Dash's room to keep her company and sleep in peace. After I had finished healing all the ponies that could be healed, I went up to join princess Luna, but something was..." Logan paused searching for the word, "possessing her." Celestia's scowl increased so much, Logan thought she was going to end his life on the spot. "I got it out and was able to talk to it." "Who was it?" Celestia asked still scowling. "It claimed to be Death," Logan said drawing back, "Death said princess Luna was just sleeping and he was visiting someone called Nightmare Moon." At this Celestia's eyes went wide then they returned to their angry scowl. Logan didn't have time to react to what happened next. He felt something tight in his torso, he tried to scream in pain but failed, his eyes went wide as he realized he was dying fast and what had happened. Celestia once again had impaled him with her horn, there was no wall to stop the horn so it went in his ribs and out his back barely missing his spine. Celestia lifted Logan off the ground, he was about to stuggle but he knew in this possition struggling would just kill faster, but she wouldn't put him down. There was only one thing he could do do get her to leave: fake his own death. Logan stuttered for breath as if it were last then took in a deep breath and slowly let out a third of it to fool her into thinking he just died, finally he stopped moving his eyes and went limp. Celestia's face turned into a satisfied scowl. She pulled her horn out so fast Logan fell and hit the ground on his back arms close but not touching his sides, Celestia looked down on him obviously waiting for something. Logan felt blood on his hands and half way down the back of his legs. Celestia's face returned to her motherly smile and she flew off, once Logan could no long hear the flappping of her wings, he started to crawl on his hands and knees towards Luna's bathroom. He got to her bathroom and tried the nob, locked. There had to be a bathroom elsewhere in the palace. Maybe Anivil and Hammer could help. *** Anivl had been standing outside the princesses chambers when he head a grunt then a thud, he looked at Hammer who said, "You know what those two are doin in there." minutes later there was a knock on the door. "Anvil, Hammer, I need one of you to help me to the bathroom, I'm dying," Logan's voice sounded raspy and incomplete. "Do you really have to go that bad kid?" Hammer asked jokingly. "This isn't a joke," Logan snapped, "I'm dying," both guards lifted and eyebrow, then heard a cough quickly followed by something splattering on the bottom of the door. They looked down and realized a pool of blood was comming out from under the door. Their hearts stopped in terror, they never had seen so much blood. They threw open the door to see Logan on his left hand and knees holding the center of his chest where blood was flowing freely it seemed. *** Logan was annoyed that they would ask such silly question but was greatful when they opened the door. Anvil slung Logan over his back and rushed to the nearest bathroom. "Is Luna okay?" Anvil asked as he let Logan stand up to the sink. "Luna is sleeping like a baby, she didn't hear a thing." Logan said as he started to clean out the wound. "What happened?" Anvil asked. "Celestia got overprotective of her sister and her logic was to kill me. I had to fake my own death." Anvil seemed to flinch as Logan said the last few words. "So she impaled you agian with her horn?!" Anvil asked in disbelief. "You tell me who else can make a hole big enough to see through." Logan said as he began healing the wound. He repaired his internal organs then bones then muscle but ran out of electricity with only a fifth of the skin healed and he was still bleeding, "I'm all out," "Should I get a doctor?" Anvil asked. Logan shook his head, "Just give me som bandage to stop the bleeding and I'll be fine, and don't wake Luna up or she'll flip." Anvil gave Logan the bandage which he wrapped around himself, "You should rest," Anvil said, Logan nooded now noticing how tired he was. They walked back to Luna bedroom and Logan went inside, 'No doubt Anvil will tell Hammer what happened,' Logna thought to himself. He took his shirt off but left his pants on. Logan got into bed belly down he felt too lazy to turn over to his back, 'Hopefully Celestia doesn't do any midday murdering,' Logan thought to himself as he drifted of to sleep. *** Logan woke up and heard shouting, his head was turned away and he still was on his belly but he knew who was shouting. "You had... no right to... to... kill him!" Luna shouted sobbing inbetween words. "He was dangerous!" Celestia said, "It's better that he's dead now." "I ain't dead yet grim reaper," Logan groaned, "and you're the one who's dangerous, is that how you solve problems? shouting and trying to kill others." "You're alive!" Luna sobbed happily, she turned him over with her magic. She rushed over to the side of the bed and gave him a hug. She kept hugging him and wouldn't let go still crying. "Sh-sh-sh." Logan said in a quiet voice trying to calm her down, "It's okay, it's okay, shhhhhh, everythings fine." "I tried... to... wake you up... but you would wake uhuhup... and when Tia told me what she di...did... to you... I thought you were dead!" Luna cried. "I'm not dead I'm fine," Logan said still trying to calm her down. Logan slowly but surely calmed her down to where she stoped crying and she let go of him. "Now can you give me some electricity so I can finish healing myself?" Luna nodded wiping away the tears on her face. "No!" Celestia shouted. Logan put on hand on the wound and the other up to draw electricity. Luna started giving Logan electricity, "Luna stop," Luna didn't listen. Logan finished healing himself and started filling up, he was half way full when Celestia shouted, "Stop it, he's dangerous!" then Celestia did the unthinkable: she pointed her horn at Luna and started charging her magic. Logan saw this and couldn't believe Celestia would do such a thing but he wasn't planning on taking a chance. Logan grabbed Luna and pulled her down on top of him just barely dogding the stream of magic that passed through the air where she just was. Logan looked at Celestia who was charging more magic. Logan rolled Luna of to the other side of the bed got up in front of where she was laying. Logan imagined an electric shield and put his hands up. Celestia fired and the room was covered in dust. when the dust cleared Luna was fine and Logan had a transparent electric shield that had a hint of blue in it. The shield exceeded Logan's expectations, not only did it protect Luna and him but it he could expand it to protect about two more ponies, Logan could also absorb some of the electricity in the magic. The bolt still was just as powerful but Logan just took the bit of electricity out of it. Celestia was charging more magic and the next hit was going to be big. Logan put both hands in front of him and put his right leg in front bent and left leg in back strait. Celestia fired, the force drove Logan a little back but he regained his footing. This was a constant stream of magic, and Logan was putting all his strength into staying up. "THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE DOING!" Logan shouted, "IF YOU KILL ME YOU'LL KILL LUNA!" "LUNA GET OUT OF THERE!" Celestia yelled. "NO! I'M STAYING WITH LOGAN!" Luan yelled back. "FINE I'LL KILL YOU TOO!" Celestia screamed. "THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU JUST SAID!" Logan shouted, "YOU'RE REALLY GOING TO KILL YOUR OWN SISTER?!" At this Celestia stopped her attack and Logan fell backwards onto the bed and Luna wrapped her hoofs around him. "You kill him you kill me," Luna said at this a loo of defeat came to Celestia's face. "Fine," Celestia said and stormed out. Luna closed the blinds and it was pitch black. Logan pulled the covers up over him and felt Luna press up to him. She layed her head on his shoulder, and they fell asleep. Social stuffLogan woke up and looked around the room. It was bright but the curtains were closed, 'They must have and enchantment that blocks sunlight out and lets moonlight in,' Logan thought. A pony a little taller and similar to Luna was standing on the balcony looking up at the moon. Logan looked to his side and saw Luna was not in bed. "Excuse me," Logan said, "where's Luna?" "I am Luna," the ponies voice sounded much older than Luna, "I have two forms I can switch between, this is my alternate form." Logan gave her a disbelieving stare, the pony changed into Luna then back to the from it once was. "In this form ponies call me Nightmare Moon," the pony said, "but you can just call me Nightmare." "Okay," Logan said swinging his legs over the side of the bed and standing up, "so why did you choose this form?" "Because I feel a little..." Nightmare paused searching for the word, "naughty." Logan's eyebrows shot up at the word, "What do you mean 'naughty'?" Logan asked trying to confirm what she meant. "Do you remember the promise I made if you healed those ponies in the hospital I would give you a gift?" Nightmare asked. "Yeah," Logan confirmed walking over to her on the balcony. "It's time for you gift," Nightmare said seductively turning around and walking towards Logan who was backing up. "Oh I'm fine I have the gift of... knowing I helped so many ponies, yeah," Logan said, Nightmare kept walking, "seriously there's no need for," Logan bumped into the bed on the verge of falling, "I don't think I'm ready to-" Logan was cut off when Nightmare got in his face. "You're ready, we're doing this," Nightmare said pushing onto his back and pinning him, "and you can't stop it." "Oh boy," Logan said. *** I am going to make a Logan x Luna/Nightmare in a separate story. It will be called Promise to the Electric Defender Nightmare had changed back into Luna, she and Logan were in the bed in the relative possition they had fallen asleep in the previous night. Both had a smile on their face, "I'd told you that you were ready," Luna said. "You were right," Logan said, "I admit defeat, even though you did lose some magic," Luna giggled and kissed him and he returned the kiss, "So what do we do now?" Luna put a hoof on her chin and pondered the question. "There are no royal court duties, we could play some Battlepony 3 or work on controlling your powers." she said. "It's your pick," Logan said. "Battlepony 3!" Luna shouted with excitement. Logan and Luna walked over to the TVs and started up the Ponystation 3. "So we going against each other or you afraid I'll wipe the floor with you again," Logan said jokingly. "No," Luna said giggling, "I'd rather have my coltfriend on my side," Luna leaned on Logan shoulder and he ran his fingers through her mane, rubbing her foreleg. "Oooh," "Does that hurt?" Logan asked. "No," Luna said, "it's feels really good," Logan rubbed her back which was hard as a rock. "Ooh hooh yeah," Luna said. "You're all tense," Logan said, "you need a massage," Logan started rubbing Luna foreleg. "Hey Luna?" "Mmm?" she said. "What was life like before I got here?" Logan asked. "Well," Luna thought for a moment, "I didn't have a coltfriend, nor did I have many friends. It's hard to make any when you're royalty and you're awake at night. If there were no royal court duties I would usuallly play Battlepony 3 and sometimes Anvil and Hammer would play with me." "All those other ponies that think royalty is easy are crazy," Logan chuckled and Luna nodded in agreement. "Tomorrow is usually when I get most of my royal court duties." Luna said. "That could be the day I work on my powers. Plus instead of you seeing it at the same time I did, I could work on it, then when you see it you'll see all the good stuff and not the fails I'll inevitably have." Luna burst out laughing Logan pretending not to notice said, "What? What I say?" which only made Luna laugh harder. "Calm down, Luna. How to expect to loosen up when you're laughing?" "Okay downer," Luna said. She layed her head on the bean bag and closed her eyes while Logan began rubbing her back legs, "So what was you're life like," "Well I was just a regular kid, well, no I wasn't," Logan contradicted, "I was the kid that was on the punch line of the jokes, but whenever others had problems they would come to me," "Why?" Luna asked interested to hear the answer. "Because I was the onlyone who would listen and help them, in a way, I was their social worker. I was also a listener, a companion, the one who cared," Logan said. "Give me an example," Luna said. "Well one fresh in my mind was the break up between D.J. and Alysa. When it happened both went to me, D.J. had big problems because he secretly wanted to get back toegether, but the though of her possibly regecting him was haunting his dreams. I told him to say to himself throughout the day 'I will remember this dream' so whenever he had the dream he would remember it was just a dream and he could really weigh other outcomes." "What about Alysa?" Luna asked. "Alysa was extra tricky," Logan said remebering it, "she was not sure of her feelings with D.J. she couldn't figure out what the feelings were. So I had to use a newton's cradle to put her into a semiconscious sleep. It would allow her to explore her mind without doubt. After doing this I discovered that Alysa's parents were the indirect cause of the break up. Alysa's parents were talking trash about D.J. and bringing doubt into her mind about D.J. "So what did you do?" Luna asked. "Well I got D.J.and Alysa to come back and I told D.J. to tell Alysa about the nightmares, and since Alysa understood why the break up happened she told D.J. what flaws her parents pointed out. He swore to change and a few days later they were back together, and they still were when I left. That was months ago." There was a long pause, "I'm sorry for taking you away from your world," Luna said. Logan stopped and Luna looked at him, lowering her head a little understanding she might have hurt him. Logan breathed in deeply, held it, then exhaled slowly. He turned his head in different directions as if he were checking to see if they were alone or to avoid looking at somepony in front of him. Logan looked down and into empty space, "I don't know how to respond to that," he finally said. Luna kept her head down as she glanced at him quickly then looked back down. Logan saw this and knew he had to get away from the problem or else this porblem would plague his dreams. He rubbed her head, she still had her head down, "Hey, I'm fine with it," "You don't mean that, you miss your friends," Luna said. "But I got a better one," Logan smiled, "one I'm comfortable around, one who doesn't complain, and loves me for who I am." The moment was too perfect to waste, Logan planted a kiss on Luna's lips who was suprised because it was the first time Logann had given her a kiss, but then she decided to take the opportunity and returned the kiss. After a shile they broke the kiss. Luna's was happy again her eyes were full of energy, her ears when up, and she was smiling. Logan returned to massaging Luna starting with her front legs. He then moved onto her back hearing a crack every now and then followed by Luna groaning. Then Logan looked at Luna's wings. "How do you massage wings?" Logan asked. "Improvise," Luna said. Logan ended up useing his thumbs insead of palms to massage her wing. They were so large, and so beautiful. "What's it like when you're flying?" Logan asked. "Well it's like... it's kinda... it's..." Luna tried to come up with the answer. "Like when we were sky diving?" Logan asked. "No. It's like being able to go whereever you please and fast while doing as many tricks as you please." Luna said holding a hoof up. "I wish I could fly," Logan said. "Too bad that's imposible." Luna giggled. "Are you making fun of me because I can't fly? I think somepony needs tickling." Logan said with a grin. "I'd rather cuddle," Luna said. "Fine by me." Logan replied as he finished massaging Luna's wings, and lay next to her. Logan started up a Ponystation 3 and started Battlepony 3, Luna had already found a game on operation firestorm so Logan joined her. Luna jumped into a chopper and Logan spawned on her. Immediately they began to lose health, spawn campers. Both Luna and Logan got out, Luna started repairing the chopper and Logan destroyed the chopper with a smaw rocket at the chopper came back for another pass. They got in and Luna flew them off, Logan shot a TV missile getting rid of the enemy support chopper's crew. As soon as Logan's camera view came back Luna crashed into a crane killing them both. "Maybe I should fly." Logan said, Luna nodded. As soon as the chopper respawned they got in. Logan looked up and around to check if anyone was spawn camping again only to find empty air. Logan spotted a tank which Luna began shooting at immediately. They destroyed the tank but then had more problems, the it apeared the entire enemy air force was after them. Logan decided it was time for some obsticals, he weaved through the oil pillars and turned around. The enemy support chopper was hit by a tank in the tail sending it spining into a pillar and in the way of a jet who ran into it killing them both. "Cool," Logan and Luna said. The other jet wasnhit by Luna in the gunner seat she disabled it and the flyer bailed letting the jet spiral into the ground, now it was just the chopper. Logan went back through the pillars many times to no avail then let the chopper out into the open going under it. The enemy took the bait as Logan went under they looked down and Logan came up. He fired rocket into it disabling the chopper it tilted sideways and crashed to the ground. "Awesome!" Luna shouted. They flew aroud for a while before getting killed then Luna jumped intp a tank and logan jumped in with her. When they found and enemy Luna would fire and distract them, if she didn't kill them Logan would. He would jump out and kill them when they hid behind something. They did this for a while then they both got in tanks, which they stayed in for the rest of the game. Luna decided on game was enough and Logan agreed the server did have 300% tickets. "What do we do now?" Luna asked staring blankly at the ceiling. "I don't know you wanna to make out?" Logan said jokingly. "Nah," Luna said, "I got a better idea," there was something in the way Luna said the words that made Logan uneasy. "What do you mean 'better idea'?" Royal FakerLogan and Luna were outside of Celestia's bed chambers and Luna had the smile of a filly. "Luna, I don't think it's a good idea to prank the pony that hates me the most," Logan said in an attempt to stop Luna. "No way it'll be funny as hell," Luna giggled, she decided to use an old prank. She put a bucket of water over Celestia's door so that when opened fully it would fall on Celestia. "It'll be funny up until the point she lasers me," Logan sighed knowing it would happen. He was about to make another attempt to stop Luna but he heard Celestia moving in her bed chambers. Logan sighed and looked away from Celestia's room, once she opened the door Luna would laugh and give away their position. Celestia would either laser him into the ceiling or down the hall to the open archway and again down the mountain. Logan heard the door open and the splash of water. Luna held her laugh in which surprised Logan, usually a victory against a sibling ended with laughing and chasing. Celestia's mane stayed wet for a few seconds before the heat of it made the water evaporate. She held her anger in and walked away to do royal court duties. "C'mon," Luna said, "I wanna show you something." Luna walked into Celestia's room and Logan followed her in. Luna walked over to a painting of the night sky. "Why does Celestia have a picture of the night sky?" Logan asked. "I don't know," Luna said, "but I do know there is something behind it, and you can't take it off the wall," Logan looked at the painting for something out of place. Blue star, white star, yellow star... pink star? Logan put his finger on an orange star. "Does this represent... Applejack?" Logan said aloud, as soon as he said the name the star began to shine brightly. Luna looked at a yellow star and put her hoof over it. "Fluttershy," Luna said, the star began to shine. Logan put his hand over a pink star, "Pinkie Pie," Logan said and it began to shine. Luna put her hoof on a white star, "Rarity," the star began to shine. Logan put his hand on a cyan star, "Rainbow dash," the star began to shine. Luna put her hoof on the next lavender star, "Twilight Sparkle," There were now six stars shining and all but one other star was gone, but nothing happened. Logan put his hand on the star, 'What did Twilight say she was studying... the magic of-' "Friendship," Logan said, the star began to shine. There was a click then the painting swung open and what Logan saw made him know what was coming next. "EEEEEEHEEHEE TIA'S DIARY!" Luna squealed in a hushed whisper. She grabbed the diary in her magic and opened it to the first page. Which told about the first time Celestia used it a little over two thousand years ago. Luna flipped through pages every day Celestia wrote in her diary and just when Logan thought the pages were about to end more appeared. Logan took the diary and flipped to the last page, 'Strange, the entries stopped two days ago the same day I got here' Logan read the last entry aloud, "Dear diary, the human is arriving tonight I know he's going to lead to another war unless I kill him immediately," Then the entries stopped. He looked through other entries. Celestia's mother is Faust, but she and Luna called her Lauren. Celestia... Attempted suicide after banishing Luna to the Moon?! First royal guard was named Summer Rain, who she mentioned even when he had passed away. Logan handed the diary to Luna who started mumbling something as she flipped through pages. "I knew it!" Luna said, "She does have a crush on Anvil!" "Something's not right, Luna," Logan said, "Celestia wrote in her diary every day and now she just stops. Something strange." "And Tia would never walk away from being pranked with out tickling me." Luna added. They looked at each other and both knew they had to see Celestia. Luna led the way to the royal court, but Celestia wasn't there. They headed toward the library maybe she was reading. Logan drew electricity to his hands experimentally. It was odd he could feel force when he brought enough electricity to the surface. Logan jumped and pointed his hands down, the electricity slowed his decent. 'Bring more to my hands and I might be able to fly,' he thought to himself. He tried but it didn't work, 'I need a force over a larger area,' he thought. Before he could try anything they arrived at the library, but didn't see Celestia. Logan was about to turn away when he heard the sound of books and papers hitting the ground and Celestia cursing. Luna walked into a section that said private causing Logan to stop outside the section, but Luna waved a hoof for him to come with her. She stopped and looked around to make sure no pony was watching. "Things aren't right and I know I won't be able to get Tia to talk but she would always talk with our father," Luna said. "Too bad he's not here," Logan replied. "That's why I need you," Luna said and Logan raised an eyebrow, "I'm going to turn you into a pony temporarily," Luna's horn glowed and a second later Logan lost his balance. He got up and looked at himself in window, his entire body was like the galaxy stars everywhere even on his coat and wings. "How do I look?" Logan asked his voice still the same. "Make your voice calmer more father like," Luna said. Logan spoke in his more less excited voice deeper and calmer just like when he did the hypnosis videos, "How does this sound my lovely daughter?" Luna embraced him in a hug, "Ohhh, you sound just like him, now let's see if it fools Tia." Luna walk around the corner to Celestia, "Tia look who's here," Logan walked out into view but there was no reaction on her face. "Good morning my child," Logan said. "Father?" Celestia asked, Logan nodded, "How have you been, why did you come without telling me?" Luna's expression showed that this was not what Celestia usually did. "Never mind that," Logan said, "I just wanted to check up on you, and remember old times. Do you remember the name of the first guard that served you?" "That was way too long ago to remember," Celestia said. "You still have that crush?" Logan said laughing. "Oh um... no... well... his name," Celestia was stuttering. "Anvil?" Logan asked trying to move her along. "Yes the royal captain," Celestia said yet another question incorrect. "Do you remember you're mother?" Logan asked. "Faust? Yeah I-" Celestia was cut off by Luna. "WE ALWAYS CALLED HER LAUREN! YOU'RE NOT CELESTIA!" Luna screamed. Celestia let out a laugh that didn't sound like her and a ring of green fire enveloped her. Out of the flames came a black pony with green hair, insect like wings, and what disgusted Logan the most were the holes in her, "No point to stay under cover, guards," she said this and two ponies that were similar to her rushed in. "I'm guessing she's not on our side," Logan said. "No," Luna confirmed, "She's Chrysalis, Queen of the changelings," "Should I take care of her?" Logan asked. "No, I'll deal with her," Luna reassured. "Great, more for me," Logan said. "Ha! A human like you could never-" Chrysalis was cut of by the sound of splintering wood. Logan had picked up a small stool and hit a changeling in the side of the head knocking it out. Logan looked at the other changeling who was just about to run but Logan delivered a series of punches to the changelings head, eventually knocking it out as well. His knuckles hurt from this a bit but he didn't complain. "What else you got?" Logan asked. "How about an army?" Chrysalis replied. Logan new he wouldn't be able to defeat all of them but he could make a dent in the numbers. "You going to deal with her?" Logan asked Luna who in response shot Chrysalis out the window with a beam of magic starting the fight. Logan ran out the library and through the castle until he got to the gates to see just what Chrysalis told him an army. Most of them were running around the city, a couple of them were keeping watch outside the city and last few were right in front of Logan with their horns glowing. Before Logan put up his electric shield he estimated how many changelings he would have to deal with. There were about fifty, but remembering how easy it was to take down the other two he face these shouldn't be a problem. Logan put up a light electric shield and the fifty changelings fired, some beams missed, most hit. The beam was only a short shot but it was too much for his light electric shield and it broke sending Logan flying back into the castle. He hit the weak brick walls and made an indent. Logan didn't break any bones but he was sore. "Note to self," Logan grunted, "Just like the Government, never underestimate the power of stupid individuals in large groups," Logan made his way out of the indent and began charging electricity as he caught his breath. Royal guards rushed past him and began to fight the changelings. Each guard seemed to have either a sword or spear, and were very skilled with it. Logan joined the fight and shot the charge he had been holding that jumped between many changelings who all fell to the ground dead. From the fifty changelings only twenty three remained; most had been killed by the guards but Logan counted at least seventeen of them he killed. "Take a break," Logan said to the guards, "I need to absorb some electricity." He ran at one of the changelings and used his momentum to deliver a kick to its leg. The changeling fell over with its leg bent at an odd angle and looked up at Logan. Logan knew that a persons body could hold electricity so he grabbed the changeling's face and dug his fingers in accidentally crushing one of its eyes with his thumb. It screamed in pain for a few seconds before Logan decided to end the Changelings misery. He found all the electricity he could and drew it out of the changeling's body and was enough to fill him back up. The changeling's body when limp and the life faded from its lone eye, he let go of the changeling and blood started gushing from its eye that he had crushed. There were six changelings left and most the guards, after defeating a few more, left to clear out the city. Logan didn't want to have to make a decision when a changeling was coming at him so he attacked first. He shot a bolt of electricity at one changeling making it flinch, he finished the job with an electrified kick to its jaw. Logan heard one coming at him from behind, he spun around only to take a head to the stomach. The changeling charged into Logan and kept going, Logan brought some electricity to his hand and slapped the changeling on the back. The slap made the changeling stop and Logan kept going for another ten feet before landing, the fall had knocked the wind out of him so he tried to crawl away to no avail *Beewooom* the electric charge on the changeling exploded send chunks of the it everywhere. Logan was blew even further back by the close range explosion, he slowly got to his feet as three guards killed the last four changelings. A unicorn guard walked up to him to see if Logan was okay. "What was that?" the guard asked. "A electric explosion that can be placed," Logan said, "I think I'll call it E4," "You need a weapon," the guard said, "fists and feet are not going to work as well as a spear." Logan knew he was right up against a changeling with a sword he would be toast. "There's a problem," Logan said, "do you see any spare weapons that you guards aren't using," "I've got something for you," the guard said and his horn began to glow. READ THIS NOW YOU GUYS GET TO DECIDE WHAT WEAPON LOGAN SHOULD GET. IT MUST MEET THE STANDARDS, NOT TOO BIG OR SMALL, A CLOSE RANGE WEAPON ELECTRICITY IS HIS FAR RANGE, AND PREFERABLY SOMETHING MADE OF METAL. LEAVE SUGGESTIONS IN THE COMMENTS! Yes! Yes the Blood!There was a flash of light and then it was dark for awhile,"Hello?" Logan asked hoping somepony was there in the darkness. "Hold on," the guard said, "I can't find the light switch." Logan brought some electricity to his hand and a small area became visible, "That's good enough, I think I can see the light switch." Logan heard a few hoofsteps then the room lit up. Logan had to shield his eyes from the sudden bright light, when his eyes fully adjusted to the light his jaw dropped at what he saw. The entire room that the guard had teleported them into was filled with weapons. "Ah, Snow Fort," an elderly voice said. Logan turned around to see an old stallion grinning at Snow Fort. "Good day Furnace," Snow said, "I need your help, this boy has the power to control lightning" "Electricity," Logan corrected him. "Anyways," Snow continued, "He needs a weapon, so he can defend himself," "Well lets find something for him," Furnace declared, the pegasus took out a measuring tape and trotted over to Logan. "Hold out your arms like a bird, or a cross," Logan did as he was told. Furnace measured his armspan, then height, then his weight. "Stand still and pull on this," Furnace indicated to a lever hanging with a scale on it. Logan pulled and Furnace mumbled something and walked out a door, "Follow me," Logan followed Furnace out, along with Snow Fort, into the main shop. A changeling came through the front door, and as soon as it did, there was an arrow in the changelings chest. It colapsed to the ground with out a cry of pain. Logan looked to Furnace who had a bow in his hoofs. Logan was amazed at how fast Furnace had gotten the arrow out, onto the bow, and into the changeling. Furnace picked up a small blade attached to a string and handed it to Logan. "Try this," Furnace said, at that moment another changeling burst through the door. Logan gave it one spin then let go. The blade logded into the changeling's leg and fell out. The changeling let out a yelp of pain and dropped to the floor nursing its wound. Logan had to kill it before the other changlings were alerted. Logan looked around and saw a plastic spoon on the ground, probably left there by a customer. Logan grabbed the spoon and ran to the changeling. He pushed the changeling over, covered its mouth, and drove the spoon into its eye. The changeling was screaming and Logan couldn't cover its mouth very well, so he shoved the spoon into the changeling's mouth in down most of the throat. Logan grabbed the bottom changeling's throat to stop the spoon then pushed the changelings head back. Logan heard the spoon snap and saw the sharp broken ends cut out of the changelings throat. The changeling tried to scream, but only let out a gargling noise with blood blubbling out of its throat. Logan took the body by the leg and dragged it behind a shelf along with the other that Furnace had shot. "Looks like the lad can take care of himself!" Furnace bellowed. "He still needs a weapon," Snow Fort said. "And I think I've got it," Furnace said with confidence, and handed him a small sword, that was small enough to be a knife. Logan usheathed the blade and saw the Snow Fort with a look of awe. It was curved and small but the metal at the sharp of the blade was gleaming and the rest of it was matte black. "It's a katana, but a small one. If you ask me it's more like a large knife," Logan nodded in agreement, the blade itself was less than a foot long. The blade looked to be about eleven inches long. "Its amazing," Snow Fort said, "But he's going to need more than that to protect himself," Logan shook his head as he got an idea. "I'll have an electic blade on the other hand," Logan said, at that moment he heard the door open. He looked to see another guard walked in and looked at Snow Fort. The guard walked to Snow Fort and spoke. "How are you holding up my friend?" The guard asked. "Well enough," Snow Fort said and turned to Furnace to ask a question, Logan didn't hear the question because he heard the sound of a button being snapped open. Logan looked at the guard and saw he had a large knife in his hoof and was looking at Snow Fort with an angry glare. He remembered how Crysalis changed into Celestia and immediately Logan put up and electric shield between the guard and Snow Fort. The guard brought the blade down and it crashed against the electric shield. The contact shocked him and he stumbled back. Snow Fort turned around to see the guard turn into a changeling. "Hey stupid," Logan said, the changeling turned, "Oh you responed to me calling you stupid; therefore your name must be stupid or it must sound stupid," The changeling lunged forward but Logan wasn't ready. Logan had the katana backwards with the blade facing behind him, he put the blade up and was able to stop the changeling's blade from going into his chest, but it went into his shoulder. He gave a grunt of pain and used his left hand to plunge the katana into the changelings chest, he felt the push the changeling had on the blade leave as it stared forward. He pulled out the blade from the changelings chest and took the changelings blade from his shoulder holding it in his other hand. Logan backed up and fell to his knee while the changeling slupmed forward dead and a pool of blood started to form. Now sure that the changeling was dead, Logan fell on to his back, dropped the blades in both hands, and clutched the wound on his right shoulder. "You need medical attention!" Furnace exclaimed. Logan ignored him and began healing the wound. "He's fine," Snow Fort said, just as Logan finished healing his shoulder, he stood up and looked at the two blades. Furnace cast a spell that cleaned of the two blades. Now with a better view, Logan liked the changelings weapon. Squared sharp brass knuckles in front of the handle and the blade was the same length as the katana but the metal was thicker and the blade had a bigger width. "Could you tune up this... uhhhh?" Logan didn't know what the blade was called. "Bowie knife, and already did," Furnace said. Logan looked back at the blade to see it was just clean and looked like new, anything not sharpened was matte black like the katana. "How much do I have to pay?" Logan asked realizing he knew nothing about the currency and had no money. "I'll pay for it," Snow Fort said, "If it wasn't for you I would have that in my head," indicating to the knife in Logan's hand. "What do I do now?" Logan asked. "Find the Elements of Harmony," Logan raised an eyebrow, "Princess Celestia's star pupil and her friends," "How do I do that?" Logan asked. Snow Fort grumbled at his own awnser, "Find a path of destruction, they're always the source of destruction." Logan nodded. "Keep those sheaths, I'll get them after this is over," Logan said, "Nonsense," Furnace said, and he cast a spell and a brown belt was now around Logan waist. He clipped the sheaths to his new belt and ran out the door with the bowie knife in his right hand and the katana in his left. Since he could see all attacks that would be in front, Logan wielded the blades backwards to cover his back and conceal them better. Logan ran down the streets aimlessly hoping to find the trail of destruction Snow Fort had told him to look for. He didn't know where Twilight or the others were staying, the last one of them he saw was... Rainbow Dash! Logan never got to heal her wing, She must still be in the hospital, he thought. There was many problems though, he would probably see more changelings, he had no idea where the hospital was or how to get to it. "Too bad I don't have a GPS," Logan mumbled as he slipped into an alley to catch his breath. As he breathed heavily, Logan peaked around the alley walls trying to notice any buildings that he had seen on the way to the hospital. Unfortunately, there were none that were familiar to him. Then he heard something familiar, a buzzing sound, "changelings," Logan cursed under his breath. Logan looked around for cover and found it in between two dumpsters, the darkness between the two concealed him and the tight space would be a place, Logan hoped, a changeling wouldn't look. He hid and waited, the buzzing got closer and closer, then near him he heard hoofs landing on the ground and the buzzing stopped. He heard some bug-like shouting and then he heard more hoof steps getting closer to him. Logan flipped the katana to a forehand grasp and lowered to a squat and prepared for the first changeling to him. Occupied by each others insults, the Changelings walked right into view; there were only four of them, but Logan waited to see if any of them turned their heads indicating there was more, none did. So there were only four, three of them were hurling insults at each other while one of them was looking around nervously. Logan hoped that the one changeling was to nervous to fight, he could probably injure two of the fighting ones and they hopefully would focus on the pain instead of the fight. Logan sprinted out of his hiding spot and at the group of three. It only took a second to reach them and Logan ran between the nearest two changelings he thrust the katana into the left changelings back. The changeling on Logan's right turned to see what the other was screaming about, only to end up screaming as well from the bowie knife Logan had slashed his chest with. Logan withdrew the katana from the changeling's back and switched his bowie knife to a forehand grasp. Now in reach of the changeling he had slashed, he thrust the knife into the changelings lower ribs. It colapsed, putting its hoof over anything that hurt. Logan looked at the third changeling that had been throwing insults, it was just standing still, shocked at what had just happened. Snapping itself out of its trance it hissed at Logan drawing a sword. Logan wished he had seen that before, the changeling held the sword in its hoofs ready to kill. Logan stepped foreward and swung the katana to the side aiming for the changelings lower neck, but it was ready swinging the sword to its right mirroring the swing. The two blades conected but the changelings sword was heavier and Logan's katana came out of his hand clattering on the ground far behind him. Logan cursed to himself for not taking the weight of the weapon into account. Logan had to get an opening, he swung his bowie knife mirrored to the katana swing and the changeling went to meet the blade, but Logan changed course. He backed away and the raging changeling swung past him with the heavy sword, Logan quickly flipped the knife back to the backhanded grasp and slammed the knife into the changeling's side. Filled with rage the changeling turned around holding the sword over his head standing on his rear hoofs. Logan took the opening and kicked the changeling in the stomach, the changeling dropped the sword flailing its front hoofs to regan balance. He grabbed the changeling by the shoulder and cut in between the shoulder and neck. The changeling screamed which meant Logan hadn't cut far enough. He dislodged the bowie knife and swung again this time turning the scream into a gargle of blood. Logan looked at the other changeling to see a look of hatred in its eyes, Logan needed it to fear him. Logan took one more swing and cut the changelings head fully off. He threw it to the ground and kicked it at the other changeling who barely caught it. The changeling turned to head around to see the face and a look of sheer horror, then blood began dripping out of changelings neck but more than just blood came out. Because Logan kicked the head it broken the bones in the head, the brain fell out. The changeling threw the head and vomited at the same time. After a few times the changeling stopped puking and when it looked back, Logan was nowhere to be seen. It wondered where the human had gone but knew where when it felt a icey blade on his neck. "Now you're going to answer my question or you'll end up like your friend," Logan said. The changeling spoke but it sounded very buzzy. "What is it?" The changeling asked. "Where is the hospital?" "Out the side of the alley behind me go right, at the second intersection go left then one more right," the changeling directed. "Thanks sorry I had to kill your friends," Logan apologized. "Those wern't my friends they were actually criminals the queen recruited. They were probably going to kill me, you did me a favor." "What are you going to do when I release you?" Logan asked. "Take a nap," the changeling casually replied, "I'm to tired to.. to..." Before he could finish his sentence he faded into sleep. Logan dragged the changelings body his previous hiding place and set off for the hospital. DevastationIt took Logan ten minutes to get to the hospital, he constantly had to duck into alleys and shops because of the changelings flying over and in the city. As he worked his way to the hospital he kept telling himself "If they don't expect anything to be there chances are they won't see anything at all," and the theory held up to the hospital. Now at the hospital Logan doubted that anyone was in the building at all. It reminded Logan of a horror scene or a haunted hospital, and guessing by the looks it could very well be haunted soon. The front desk was in ruins, papers were everywhere on and near the desk. Chairs varied in damage only one looked untouched others were either broken partially or completely destroyed, a few had the foam stuffing in them those that didn't had theirs hopelessly scattered aroud the lobby. Then something caught Logan's eye, but he wished it hadn't, blood. More injured ponies must have come after I left, Logan thought, But how many came. Logan knew he didn't want to find out, but he had to. As he stepped towards the hallway more blood became visible. Logan looked down at his feet until he was facing down the center of the hallway. Logan looked forward and felt his heart skip a beat then race. Dots of splattered blood covered areas on the walls, floor, and ceiling. Most of those areas were near trails of blood that went from one room to the next, the hallway into a rooms, and blood trails ending in the hallway with a dead body in a puddle of blood. Logan walked down the hallway glancing into rooms to check for survivers but there were none, nopony was spared. Logan walked up to the next floor and went up the hall and back before going up to the next floor and doing the same. Logan tried his best to keep from screaming as he passed bodies of ponies, one room on the last floor caused him to investigate further. Even though the last floor was had the most bodies in the hallway one thing stood out. A wheel chair was outside the room with a trail of blood leading from the chair into the room, inside a mare's dead body was face down at the end of the trail but there was more. Two young ones, a newborn and filly, were dead, both with the legs of a hospital bed through their heads. Logan heard a noise from a closet, he opened it to find a colt on the verge of death. The colt tried to say something but it was to fast. "Shhhhh," Logan said trying to calm the colt down, "say it slow." "The changelings they... came and... killed everypony," the colt said gasping for air, "They kept talking... about a spell or curse," "What was the curse?" Logan asked. "They kept saying something... before they killed us," the colt responded. "What was it?" Logan asked. "They kept saying... that we would... we would... we would" the colt started sobbing. "No don't cry," Logan said, "What did they say?" The colt spoke, "They kept saying... that we would... rise again," and the colt died. Logan felt tears starting to form in his eyes, and he decided it was right to let them flow freely. He exhaled a shudering breath and got up, wiping the tears out of his eyes and off his face. He left walking slowly to Rainbow Dash's room trying to ignore the more than ten bodies that littered the hall, when he got there Rainbow Dash was not on the bed. The room was a mess but there was no blood, even the blood from when Rainbow Dash cried blood was gone. "Rainbow?" Logan called out, "It's me Logan," he heard something shuffle under the bed then noticed a head poking out under the bed with a relieved smile on it. Rainbow Dash came out from under the bed and galloped to Logan giving him a hug. "Are you okay?" Logan asked trying to pull away from her but to no avail, he got no answer but didn't need one as he could feel her tears begining to wet his shoulder, "I'm going to heal your wing, okay." "Okay," Rainbow said, her voice trembled with trauma and fear. Logan grabbed her wing still in the embrace and began to heal it. "Are you hurt?" Logan asked starting to use his calming voice. "My wing, duh," Rainbow said giggling a little. "Rainbow, you don't have to answer this next question if you don't want to. I found one colt barely alive, and before he died he told me the changelings said that they, the ponies, would rise again. Do you know what they meant?" "They probably meant that they would go to a happy place in the after life, it has been said it's like living again." Rainbow said guessing. "I'll ask Luna after this is over, but right now we need to get out of here and find those element things," Rainbow Dash nodded reluctantly. Logan led Rainbow Dash to out the door but only two feet out he stopped and a chill of terror ran up his spine like no other from what he couldn't find. He stopped Rainbow Dash from going on. "What's wrong?" Rainbow Dash asked annoyed, "There's no changelings to attack you and me," "It's not the changelings that I'm worried about," Logan said and Rainbow Dash gave him a confused look, "When I went down the hall to your room the hall was littered with bodies," Rainbow Dash turned to him confused, "So," "Look aound," Logan said, "Now there's not a single body in sight," Logan was right, every single body that he passed was gone with out a trace. "It's like they just got up and left," Logan added as he glided down the hall with both his blades out. He walked slow ly checking every room for more bodies but they were gone, all of them. Logan looked into the room he found the half dead colt in, but there were no bodies. The colt was gone, the mare was gone, even the infant and filly, who had bed legs through their heads, were gone. Logan resisted the urge to jump out the nearest window or runing as fast as he could down the stairs. He walk to the bed and tried to lift it which was an easy task. "But how could a dead body go missing?" Logan asked himself out loud. He turn back to Rainbow Dash but she was gone, Logan walked into the hall and saw her staring into the stairway with a look of terror. Logan ran to her, "What wrong?" "Look in the stairs," Rainbow said and Logan walked into the stairs, "The changelings said they would-" Logan held up his had to stop her. He illuminated the entire stair ceiling and wall covered with the missing bodies. One of the bodies open it's eyes then another then all of them studying Logan. Their stare was lifeless and hungry, "Rise again," Logan said understanding. One of them open it's mouth slowly and made a small noise the others turned to Logan with a look of an animal ready to kill. They opened their mouths. Logan yelled at Rainbow Dash and grabbed her runing down the stairs "Run!" the dead bodies replied, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Logan and Rainbow Dash jumped down the small opening in the middle of the stairs and landed on the ground floor with a thud. As they ran to the exit, Logan came to the conclusion that the bodies were no longer dead but were partially living. The fact sent chills up Logan's spine, they were the undead the nearly unstopable: real zombies. Raimbow dash tried to open the door but it wouldn't budge. "It won't open!" she screamed. Logan looked down the hall to the door leading to the stair, but it was dead silent. "It's quiet," Logan said, "Too quiet," the zombies poured out of the door heading at Logan and Raimbow Dash faster than a full sprint. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE the zombies screeched in unison, "Now it's too loud!" Logan put up an electric barricade, but the zombies didn't care they slammed straight into it. and started thrashing at the wall of electricity. "Buck that door open!" Logan yelled as he looked at the zombies not even taking notice to the fact that the wall was zapping them every time they hit it. Logan saw the colt he talked to thrashing and screaming trying to break the electric wall. Next to him were the infant and filly that were under the bed. Suddenly the infant tried using its head to hit the electric wall once, twice, and on the third time its head ripped off from its shoulders, but it was still alive. The zombie filly looked at the headless body and picked up the head trying to put it back on as the head looked at Logan and made chewing motions. After lerning that she couldn't put the head on the body again, she screamed and immediately the zombies stopped attacking the electric wall looking at the head and body. Then the zombies attack started again but this time on the body and head, they stared eating it. In less than ten seconds the entire infant was devoured, and they resumed their attack on the electric wall. Then from the wild punches came a beam of magic, but it was from a zombie. "They're getting smarter." Logan said in terror. He increased the shield as the attacks got harder to stop. "Rainbow is the door open?" "It still won't open!" She screamed, then Logan got an idea. "Get away from the door!" Logan yelled, Rainbow didn't argue, "Run!" Logan fired a gigawatt hammer at the door which exploded on impact. Rainbow Dash ran out the door but stopped and called for Logan. "Let's go!" Rainbow screamed. "If these things bite anyone what do you think will happen to them?" Logan said then continued without an answer, "They get completely eaten or turned into zombies! The colt said it was a spell or a curse." "I'll find Twilight!" Rainbow declared, "She'll know what to do!" with that Rainbow Dash became a blur as she took off into the sky. Logan turned his attention back to the zombies hitting and now firing magic beams, Logan felt something going empty his electricity. He could feel the shield fade as he ran out of electricity, until the wall of zombies broke through. The zombies came at him at a full sprint and one of them took a swing just early missing him before he started running. Logan thought it really couldn't get worse, zombies that lived even without a head, never got tired, and could learn. Logan ran out the door and decided to head back to the changeling that was in the alley, he hoped the changeling knew how to get rid of the zombies, because if he didn't get rid of them soon he would either go on the longest run ever, or he would be their next meal. Logan needed a way to push the zombies back with out using a great majority of his electricity. A shockwave or something just to delay them, or throw them back. Logan turned into an alley planning to double back stalling time to grab any electricity in the air, which he already had started doing when he left the hospital, but was so far only an eighth full. As he went through Logan noticed how narrow it was, it could only fit two at a time so would take the zombies a long time to work their way through, at least that was his logic. He turned around to make sure check his logic, the zombies swarmed the alley, it was only wide enough for two but the zombies climbed on top of each other, they all stopped for a moment and looked at Logan. "Shit." EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE the zombies started again, and Logan ran again checking how much power he had, a little over half. The zombies must contain electricity Logan thought. He slowed down to the zombies and he felt more electricity filling him up completely. Now the zombies were close, Logan was about to tire out, and Rainbow Dash hadn't brought Twilight back yet. He had to push the zombies back, or else he was going to be a snack. InterrogationLogan charged electricity in his hands and vocal cords, wanting to try something else. He turned into and alley and caught his breath, it might be his last after those zombies turn into the alley. The moment seemed to be closing in quickly with the calling anouncement of the zombies rage and anger, Like a train before impact, Logan thought. As the first zombie came into the alley Logan took in a deep breath, and yelled, "Fus Ro Dah!" The electricity in his vocal cords fused with the outward sound and spread out. The vocalized electricity only reached three of the zombies knocking them off ballance "Aw Skyrim!" Logan yelled, "Why you no tell truth!" The zombies all pause to investigate their three fallen friends giving Logan time to get closer to them. As the three zombies all got to their feet Logan put his hands together and spread them outward as he thrust his hands forward and released electricity. The result was an moving circle of electricity about six feet high and six feet wide. It covered ground quickly and reached the zombies giving better results. The zombies were sent flying backwards some gaining ten feet of air and some started to use their wings to fly. "Oh not good," Logan said to himself, "I helped them learn magic and flying, I am such a moron." At that moment a flying zombie pegasus dove at Logan who barely dogded it. The zombie slammed into the wall head first with such impact that the head burst and the brain lay barely connected to the stuggling body, but Logan noticed something strange on the brain. The entire brain was a light pink, but on the front was a lone gray chunk that was throbbing. Logan took a wild guess at what it was, he brought out his bowie knife and stabbed it into the gray chunk and immediately the zombie stopped moving. He was glad that he had found the heart so to speak, but there were about one hundred more zombies to put out of their misery, if they had any emotion besides anger. Logan looked at the zombies each had an angry scowl on its face, nope just anger. Logan ran out the alley and back towards the weapons shop, but stopped when he saw Twilight and her friends gallop out onto the street. "There you are," Twilight said stopping in front of Logan, "Rainbow Dash said you needed..." the zombies ran out the alley and gave a unison blood curdling screech, "...Help!" They all took off in one direction following Logan, Twilight caught up to him but Logan needed no questions. "Their life support system is all on a disease on the front of their brains." Logan said. "Maybe they're actually friendly," Twilight said hopefully. "Nope!" Called Pinkie who was galloping backwards with a pink cannon in her forehoves. "Pinkie ah don't think yer party cannon is gunna..." Applejack's sentence was cut off by Logan. "What's it loaded with?" Logan asked. "Nails!" Pinkie replied excitedl "Don't fire yet," Logan said, he ran back to Pinkie and put his hand on the cannon. He put E4 on each nail he could find. and Pinkie fired. The result was devastating, half the zombies were dead and others were slowly moving because the nails ripped limbs off. The zombies that live went to their fallwn friends and began devouring them starting at the head, wrong choice. BEEEEWWWWWMMMM the E4 attached to the nails exploded blowing the feasting zombies to bits. Not a single zombie was left. The six mares jumped with joy, Logan guessed that was probably what they did every time they accomplished something. Their celebration stopped when from the zombies' pieces started forming into black smoke, Logan and the other mares looked to Twilight, but she too had a confused face. "Now that we're no longer in danger of becoming zombie chow," Logan continued, "I would like to bring up a few questions. Where is Celestia? How are we going to clear the entire city? And where is Luna?" "We'll clear it like we did last time," Fluttershy said, "That is if the Elements of Harmony don't work." "As fer Luna," Apple Jack cut in, "She can handle Crysalis." "But where's Princess Celestia?" Pinkie asked. The other ponys put their heads down, some in thought others in defeat. Logan broke the silence, "Well, if you need enemy info, just interrogate them." "But how are we supposed to get changelings?" Fluttershy asked. "Got it covered," Logan said bringing crackling electricity to his hands. He looked to the sky and stopped for a moment. They sky was dark not only because it was still night time but the sky was filled with changelings, making the ground below even darker. "Okay maybe I don't," Logan said, realizing he didn't have the time to figure out how his electricity was going to reach that high. "I got some! I got some! I got some!" Pinkie chanted as she bounced around a pile of five limp changelings. "Where'd you get those?!" Logan blurted out. "It's Pinkie," Rainbow Dash cut in, "You don't question the laws of Pinkie Pie." Logan saw she had a point, plus for a pony who laughs while being chased by zombies it was believable. Logan pulled one unconscious changeling over each shoulder, then turned to Twilight. "Are there any interrogation chambers in this place?" Logan asked. Twilight shook her head, "Are there any places with chairs, ropes, and piss poor lighting?" "Plenty if you just look," Twilight said walking into an alley. She looked around along the walls until her eyes rested on a dumpster which became surrounded by Twilights purple magic. She moved the dumpster to the side revealing a metal door with a sliding box for one to peak through. There was a click then a turn of gears and the door swung open. Twilight went in and the rest followed, Logan felt his way down realizing he was on stairs. Three stairs down Logan felt something on the wall, he felt it and moved something. The stairs were illuminated, a pleasant mood was in the air until the rest of the stairs were visible with no bottom in sight. "This might be real torture," Logan said exhausted at the thought of going down such a tremendous number of stairs. His mood change after he saw a smooth dumpster lid, he grabbed it and put it on the stairs then jumped on. Logan slid down the stairs bumping into the six ponys who landed on the lid with Logan. "WHEEEEE!" cried Pinkie, Logan couldn't agree more,but there was a problem. After a few minutes they sitll hadn't reached the bottom. Logan looked back and saw the door was right behind them. They weren't moving the stairs were. Logan looked at the ponies who also seemed to notice the same thing, Applejack in the back reached up and twisted the door handle. As soon as she did the stairs went flat and turned into a floor so they stopped moving. Applejack went halfway through the door and then waved her hoof to signal it was safe. The six ponies went in then Logan, but they were not outside they were in a large room which seemed to be a barn guessing from the hay that lay everywhere. The room was mostly dark, lit in small places only be the dimness of a small light. The room had an uneasy feeling to it like something was always there with you just out of sight. A musty dank smell filled the air makeing it a little harder to breathe. Here and there were chairs some completely broken most in a good enough condition to use and could still take a beating. Fluttershy grabbed five chairs and Applejack took out some rope. Twilight used her magic to tie up the changelings in chairs in a line. "Who's going to interrogate them?" Rarity asked aloud. Everypony looked to Logan. "What are you looking at me for?" Logan asked already knowing the answer. "You're the only intemidating thing here plus you have knives," Fluttershy said. "What if you ponies tried?" Logan brought up. Rainbow Dash answered in a tired tone, "Rarity would woosy out, Fluttershy would pet them, Applejack would try to heard them, I would do nothing, Twilight wouldn't be good at it, and Pinkie would give them cupcakes. Any more questions smart ass?" Logan and the ponies were shocked at Rainbow's tone but she was right, Logan was the only one who could do it. "You'd better leave," Logan said, "It's going to get prety ugly once they wake up," Twilight nooded and led the six of them out leaving Logan to wait for the changelings to wake up. Logan walk to a dark corner and sat down staring at the unconscious changelings. Logan knew he had to get information out of the changelings as fast as possible, and the best medod would be to scare the hell out of them. Then Logan got an evil idea, looking on the walls and ceiling he saw there were large nails close together. Immediately Logan's thoughts went to climbing on the wall. Negative charged and positive charged electricity could hold him, and as he learned from movies, nothing likes the sight of something not giving a damn about gravity in an unnatural position. Logan sent out negative charged electricity to the nails then brought positive charged electricity to his hands and feet. Testing it, he put his hand on the nail and it worked, it was heavily magnetized. He brought his other hand then feet and began to climb taking away the positive charge momentarily to move his hand or foot. He got to the ceiling and heard a noise, the changelings were waking up. One shook its head as it looked around, "Hey wake up guys," it said until all the other changelings were awake, "What happened?" One said, "Where are we?" another said. One of the changeling under Logan slowly looked up and saw him. Logan looked back staying still for a few seconds. Then he slowly opened his mouth and began to shake his head. The changeling started to utter small quiet sceams then Logan stopped moving. The changelings stayed silent fearing what would happen next. Logan tilted his head and slowly cracked his neck then uttered two words in a demonic tone, "Feeding time," The changelings erupted into mass panic screaming as they watched Logan quickly climb down from the ceiling to the wall and onto the floor where he stood up and walked over to the terrified changelings. Logan took out his bowie knife and put it up to one of the changeling's throat making them all fall into silence. He looked from changeling to changeling as if inspecting them then said, "This isn't a very good meal," Logan took the knife away from the changeling's throat then went on, "Tell you what, you want to live right," Logan waited as each changeling slowly nodded, "So if you can tell me where to get a better meal, I'll let you go." "How about the six ponies that use the elements of harmony?" one said. "No, I have to work to kill them and I need a meal all in one pony." Logan said. "I know a pony that will make a meal fit for a god." another said "Oh really!" Logan said pretending to be suprised. "Princess Celestia, she's trapped in the ceiling of the main hall in the palace." Logan had the information he needed so he went over to the changeling and punched it with the brass knuckle part on the handle knocking it out. "You said you'd let us go," one protested. "I did, and I am." Logan cut the ropes of the unconscious changeling, "This one will untie you after he wakes up." and with that Logan walked into the shadows and out the door. SORRY FOR THE WAIT LOTS OF HOMEWORK HEY IF YOU GUYS WANT IT TO GO FASTER JUST MAKE RANDOM COMMENTS START AND ARGUMENT OR CONVERSATION IN THE COMMENTS. THE MORE COMMENTS I SEE THE MORE I WORK ON CHAPTERS The RiddleLogan opened th the door and walked into the stairs, he then closed the door and opened it again expecting the alley, but only saw a dark concrete walled room with six ponies who Logan knew were Twilight and her friends. Fluttershy spotted him and gasped with a smile of delight. "Why aren't we back in the alley?" Logan asked to the six ponies. "This was no normal door, it had a spell on it." Twilight said. "What kind of spell?" Logan asked confused. "One that changes locations from some sort of pattern or mood." Twilight said in an attempt to explain. "Well then It's time for some trial and error," Logan said, "Because sitting here isn't going to do anything." "Error?" Twilight repeated, "We can't have error, it isn't right!" "Twilight to do something right you must try other things and find out what is wrong so you can get it right next time," Rarity elaborated. Twilight opened her mouth to protest but nothing came out as she looked around in defeat. "Fine," Twilight said, "We'll try it your way, but we need to get to Princess Celestia," Twilight paused, "Where is she?" "She's stuck in the ceiling of the main hall in the palace," Logan replied then Pinkie started laughing. "That sounds silly," She said. "Silly er not we gotta git outta here," Applejack said leading the way out the door. "But what if something bad happens?!" Twilight snapped back. Logan was getting tired of standing still they had to get moving, or there would be no one to get Princess Celestia out. Logan spoke, "Twilight, if we don't go something bad will happen. Princess Celestia will never get out of the ceiling, Princess Luna might not get help to defeat Chrysalis, and the city will fall." Twilight's eyes went wide finishing the dreaded conclusion Logan was coming to. "And if the capital, Canterlot, falls... all of Equestia falls with it." Twilight finished. The mood in the room seemed to change very dark with the gravity of the situation now in mind. Even Pinkie carried a grim expression on her face. Surprisingly, it was Fluttershy who broke a long silence with determination in her voice. "Well we better do something before something bad happens," Fluttershy said. The other five ponies and Logan nodded. Suddenly the door began to shine, Twilight had a large grin on her face as the doors light died down. "I think the door is going to let us leave!" Twilight exclaimed. She opened the door with her magic and they all raced inside. Logan looked around as they ran but saw nothing; darkness was everywhere except ahead where there was dim light. As they ran into the light Logan's face developed a look of horror as recognized the location they were now in. It was the crater Logan had made landing in Equestria. They were on the rim of it, and now that Logan saw the full size of the crater, he now understood the damage he had done. In some moives Logan had seen bombs would create craters fifty feet deep and wide. The crater Logan had made was more than he had been able to see. The crater looked to be half a mile in diameter and just over a quarter mile deep; however, the crater was not a perfect hemisphere the inner crater was flat for a a quarter mile radius then went up at a steep incline. Logan couldn't grasp the fact that just him and his backpack could cause such great destruction. Cool wind caught the tips of the trees and stooped down into the crater bringing ash into his face. He stepped forward, sliding down the steep incline at the edge of the crater. Logan stopped himself on a farily flat part of the crater and looked at the ash ground. All through the crater ash was present but not a sign of life was visible. Logan began to dig, trying to find fertile soil, but soon gave up in a depressing defeat. It was then that he noticed Fluttershy stood in front, with sorrow on her face. "What's wrong?" Fluttershy asked in her quiet tone. "I did this," Logan said. "So what?" she replied. "Look around," Logan said not looking up, "There isn't a single sign of life. No animals, no plants, and not a hint of soil that wasn't burned to ash. I did this... destruction. What if everything you first thought about me was right? What if I always just end up destroying? Life, freedom, happyness, destroyed in the end." "Well it's certainly okay to destroy some of the Everfree Forest." Fluttershy said her tone becoming brighter. "How is it okay to destroy nature?" Logan questioned his tone becoming darker. "Well ya see, the Everfree Forest isn't so natural," Applejack chimed in. "How is it not natural?" Logan asked. Applejack's face twisted in small fear, "The plants grow." "Animals care for themselves," Fluttershy added. "And the clouds move-" Rainbow began "All on their own!" the three finished together. Logan looked at them raising one eyebrow and spoke, "Seems pretty natural to me." There was a silence that hung for a moment before the six ponies jaws went slack. "How does that seem natural?!" Rainbow burst out. "There's nothing out of the ordinary," Logan replied, "Where I'm from, that's how nature is." "How?" Twilight asked. "Each can be explained," Logan said, "Clouds move because the wind pushes them. Plants and animals adapt to survive in the area they live in; ever heard of the expression 'Survival of the fittest'." Logan could see that here nature worked a different way. "Your world is messed up!" Pinkie shouted. "Look at it from my perspective!" Logan shouted back, "Your world is messed up! In my world we don't have unicorns or pegasus, we have ponies but their coat is black, white, or brown. They arn't crazzy colors like pink or rainbow and they don't talk!" Logan realized he had gone out of control when he heard Fluttershy began to cry. He went over to her and wat down, "I'm sorry Fluttershy. I just let my stress get the better of me, I didn't mean to make you cry." "Nopony takes care of the animals." Fluttershy sobbed. "Well we sort of do," Logan said, "We make rules to protect the animals' homes from being destroyed. Some of us even keep them as pets." "What kind of animal do human have as pets?" Fluttershy asked wiping her eyes. "Some people, like me, have cats. While others have dogs. There are, however, a few people that go with different kinds of animals like birds, lizards, and other exotic animals." Logan left Fluttershy to wander in her thoughts about the animals. He wandered further into the crater, but didn't see anything that would have made him feel better. Finally he found the center, maked by a disturbed patch of ash. Ahead of the center were hoofprints no doubt made from Twilight, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash. Once again he felt sadness knowing he destroyed so much life. With tears coming into his eyes he sat down looking at the ash ground. Then he noticed there was a different print that he almost sat on. The print looked like it was from a claw and whatever made it was big judging by how deep the print was. Suddenly the was a chuckle that seemed to come out of thin air "You ponies are so much fun. Ahhaha!" Logan turned to Twilight for an answer, but saw that the six ponies were backing away from him. They arn't backing away from me, they know I'm a friend. Then that means what ever they're backing away from is... behind me. Logan jumped foward and spun around to see a figure looming over him. It was a creature with all different body parts. Head of a pony; horns, left of a goat, right of a deer; body of a snake; arms right was a paw, left was like a chicken foot in the form of a hand; a right dragon leg; left pony leg; and a scaly tail. It also had a beard, one fang, and yellow eyes with red in the center. "My god, you are one ugly motherfucker," Logan muttered unsheathing his blades both in a backhanded grasp. The creature didn't see him, its attention was focused on the six ponies, "Discord? That's imposible! You should be in stone!" Twilight exclaimed. "Oh but I am," Discord said flaring out his wings. His left a pegasus wing, his right a bat or dragon wing. "But in this spirit realm I can do what I please... with limmitations of course." "Spirit realm?" Rainbow repeated. "Yes, yes, after ponies die you come here, or you can get here by magic or being turned to stone." Discord explained rolling his hand. "Recently this big thing showed up but nopony knows how," Discord finished gesturing to the crater they were in. "You know who did it!" Applejack yelled. "Sorry, but here I'm nearly powerless," Discord said, "But guessing on the presence of magic lingering here I'm going to say... Celestia got mad." Discord errupted into a fit of laughter. "I wouldn't joke about it if I were you," Pinkie cut in. "Why?" Discord asked wiping away a tear. "You'll make him mad," Pinkie said in a dark voice. Discord was stopped from a pronoun, "Him?" "Suprise," Logan said his bowie knife at Discord's neck. He had climbed up Discords back while he was laughing. "Well done!" Discord said, "But you can kill in the spirit realm. Score one for Discord!" Logan whacked Discord on the top of the head who threw his hands on his head in pain. "You can still cause pain in the spirit realm. Score one for Logan!" Logan jumped off Discord who rubbed his sore head, "So, anypony want to tell me why Canterlot is in ruins?" "Chrysalis attacked, and imprisoned Princess Celestia." Twilight said, "A changeling told us that she's in the ceiling." "They're lying." Discord said, "A queen would not tell her subjects the actual location of something, only a near location. That way you'll be searching for something that's not there but you'll be near enough attract the enemy's attention. Besides, I know where she is." "How? You didn't even know what was attacking Canterlot." Logan pointed out. "Ah! After years of seeing the palace you notice when something changes," Discord laughed "Tell us where she is!" Twilight shouted. "Why should I?" Discord asked "Because if you don't there won't be any ponys to make you laugh." Twilight said with a smirk. "Fine but I'll tell you but my way." Discord said quickly. "Not another riddle." Pinkie groaned. Discord cleared his throat and his next words seemed to echo, "Here and there and all throughout Magic played roles with out a doubt. But sides must be chosen in this world and through out history this still shows. To find your princess you must see both sides to see through the tinted vision of the one who knows." A bright light enveloped them all, then darkness followed. A Cold PrisonLogan awoke slowly, his eyes opened as he took in a deep breath; streching his arms and legs. He wriggled around getting the blood to flow through his body quicker. Judging on how stiff he felt Logan esimated he had been out for hours. Last thing he remembered was a bright flash and something before that. Then Discord's words echoed in his head. Here and there and all throughout Magic played roles with out a doubt. But sides must be chosen in this world and through out history this still shows. To find your princess you must see both sides to see through the tinted vision of the one who knows. Propping himself up on his elbows he looked around to see the six ponies. Logan got up and walked over to Applejack, shaking her lightly to wake her up. "Applejack," Logan whispered shaking her, "Wake up." Applejack snapped up. "Ah wasn't being lazzy ah was just takin' a quick nap!" She shouted waking up the other five mares who started complaining, "Sorry y'all." "Apologies will have to wait, girls," Twilight said, "We need to find Celestia," "And by the looks of it, we're in the palace," Rarity continued, "In the hall with the picture windows that lead to the elements." A loud crash of doors opening interupted them. Through the door came Chrysalis with changelings flanking her. A devious smile remained on her face though Logan could see suprise in her eyes. "I'm not entirely sure how you got here," Chrysalis began, "But it doesn't matter, I won." "But Luna..." Logan began. "Is once again back in the moon, locked away for eternity." Chrysalis laughed Logan could feel his anger boiling, but he quickly submerged it, "You win when hell freezes over," "Every gaurd has been defeated and I control all Canterlot," Chrysalis said. Logan unsheathed his blades but he soon found he was gripping nothing. He looked back over to Chrysalis to see his blades suspended in a green bubble of magic. "I'm gonna pound you into a pancake," Logan threatened. "With what?" Chrysalis said half laughing. Logan held up his fists "Hungry?" Logan asked, "Cause I can make you a knuckle sandwich if you are." "You can't beat me with your puny hands, and there are no stools or chairs to help you now," "Tell it to my ass," Logan said, "It's the only one that gives a crap." "Face it you've lost," Chrysalis said. Logan put his open hands out in front of him, and drew electricity to the surface, "Like I said, I won. Surrender and you deaths will be..." Chrysalis's last word was cut of by a loud bang that filled the hall. Logan fired a burst of electricity into the crowd of changelings several lay dead the shock stopping their heart, others stood up, wobbling a bit as they tried to keep their ballance. Chrysalis was the only one who hadn't fallen. "What... was that?" She said tremor in her voice. "That," Logan started, "Was a taste of the pain you're about to experience." "But you don't have any weapons!" Chrysalis shouted. "I already have one built in," Logan said. "Destroy him, my changelings!" Chrysalis ordered. The last of the changelings charged Logan, who knew they were to far apart to send another mass shock through. So he put up a small electric bubble shield. The changelings piled on quick. The ones who were the bottom of the pile touched the electricity and were killed. Others that were far under were crushed from the weight of their fellow changelings. Logan rapidly expanded the electric bubble, the sudden g-force crushed the changelings in the middle and flung the ones on the top away from him. The changeling above him flew so high it was impaled by the sharp stone structures of the ceiling. Blood immediately began to flow down and onto Logan, soaking his shirt and pants. One of the changelings had flown over to Applejack, but she didn't need protection. She bucked the changeling high into the air, but Logan wanted to make sure it would die. He shot a sharp string of electricity that went clean through the changeling. Logan wasn't done, he expanded the tip into a circle and pulling the electric string brought the changeling back to the ground with a small depression that quickly filled up with blood and hid the body. With only Chrysalis standing, an erie hatred hung in the air, like the fog that fills the air in the morning after a humid night. Chrysalis stood straight, a calm look on her face even though panic could consume her at any given moment. Logan stood knees bent and low, electricity sparking in his hands, ready for an attack. "So where's Luna?" Logan asked again. "She's back where she belongs," Chrysalis said, "In the moon." "What?" Logan said still confused. "She trapped Luna in the moon!" Twilight shouted, "A spell like that can only be undone by Celestia, we've got to find her!" "You do that, I've got Chrysalis," Logan said, "Let's finish this. Avenge the changelings I killed, their blood is on my hands. So come get me you ugly fucker!" This sent Chrysalis's anger boiling over and she fired a beam of magic. Logan put up a large electric barrier, but it quickly began to crack. "How does she have so much power?!" Logan exclaimed realizing this was a fight he probably wouldn't win. "She gets her power from love!" Twilight shouted, "It needs to be replenished every now and then." Logan felt his spirit lift as he realized something if it needs to be replenished, it eventually runs out. All I have to do is avoid the attacks until she runs out. "Twilight, teleport me behind Chrysalis," Logan said. "But she'll kill you!" Twilight argued. "And she'll kill you too if I can't get her out. Plus you need time to find Celestia, and my electric shield won't give you another thirty seconds!" Twilight was at defeat. Her horn glowed and next thing Logan knew his stomach felt like it was inside-out and he was on just behind Chrysalis. The nausea was too powerful and he vomited on Chrysalis. Logan stumbled back before he spoke, "Wow that was a big improvement in appearance," Chrysalis spun around and fired her magic at Logan who barely dodged the attack. Logan ran with the buzzing sound of Chrysalis's wings following him gaining ground quickly. He needed to find a confined space where flying was too hard. The library, the tightly packed spaces between bookcases would make it very difficult to fly. Only problem was that he couldn't remember how to get there. Time for more trial and error, Logan thought to himself. Running down hallway after hallway, he could find no parterns or familiar structures. On the brighter side, Chrysalis had fired loads of magic and few came very close to him. She also over shot a turn Logan easily made, small wings and a big body didn't mix well. At last he recognized Celesita's room, and when he and Luna followed her she was going the same way he was. The memory of going to the library was fresh enough in Logan's mind to remember. Left, left, right, forward, left. Found it! But Chrysalis was to close so he passed the doors then made a U-turn running at an angle to the wall. Logan jumped at the wall then gave a big push off the wall. Chrysalis was coming right at him but he weighed more due to the holes in her body. Logan tackled Chrysalis mid air and drove her horn into the opposite wall. Logan ran into the library slamming the door closed to make sure Chrysalis knew where he was. He ran down a narrow space just as the door exploded into splinters from Chrysalis's magic blast. Logan scrambled up the bookcase. Chrysalis's advantage was she could fly. Now, because the space provided wasn't enough to fly in, Logan gained the advantage being able to climb the bookcase. The space between the the tops of the bookcases and the ceiling were enough to fly in but Chrysalis could get there in the first place. Logan had the advantage two stories up. Jumping from bookcase to bookcase he followed Chrysalis, not once did she ever bother to look up. Logan grabbed a book when she finally stopped and dropped it, which missed by quite a distance but it was enough to get her to turn around and fire a blast of magic into the wall. Every now and then Chrysalis would stop and Logan would drop a book near her causing her to fire a blast of magic. He kept this going for a while until Chrysalis got fed up and took on a new strategy; if you can't find someone, eliminate their hiding spots. Chrysalis fired a constant beam of magic and did a full spin. At first nothing seemed to happen, then there was a distinct noise: breaking wood. Logan felt the bookcase under him shift as it collapsed, then he felt nothing under him as he and the bookcase fell. Logan wasn't worried about being covered in wood, most of the other bookcases had already fallen. Logan tried to land on his feet but a long piece of wood broke up to a point, he could do nothing except brace for impact. With a grunt he landed on point as it went through the center of his belly and came out the other side by a foot and a half. The pain was worse than he immagined, and it greatly increased when the wood fell to a thirty degree angle. Logan felt at a loss for breath, but did not gasp for air. He tried to pull himself off the large piece of wood but was interupted by an evil chuckle, then an extreme wave of pain shot through his body. Chrysalis had shot him off the wood and through the wall out onto into the large fountain right before the entrance to the palace. Logan guessed that to shoot him through a stone wall it had to take a alot of energy so she was Chrysalis was probably run low on power. Logan slowly rose to his feet, noting how he was on the verge of death. Chrysalis hovered above the fountain, a triumphant smile on her face. She was getting over confident. Logan wasted no time, he quickly shot electricity into Chrysalis's left wing causing her to spiral down into the fountain. Logan fired electricity into the water and watched as Chrysalis jerked and spasmed her way out of the fountain. She limped up the stairs towards the palace entrance but Logan caught her at the top and punched her. Chrysalis staggered forward then turned around facing Logan who delivered a series of blows to Chrysalis's head before she blocked one and hit him in the stomach and face. Logan grabbed her head and smashed it against his knee, blood immediately began to flow. Logan followed that with a kick to her forehooves breaking them. Chrysalis stood on her back legs and received punch after punch to the stomach slowly loosing air. The rythm set in Logan punched with muscle memory, not able to feel and anything in his arms. He stopped for a moment and regained feeling in his arms, Chrysalis staggered this way and that, on the verge of death. Then Logan felt somthing cold in his feet, he looked down to see that he was slowly being turned to stone. Logan looked back to Chrysalis, if he didn't kill he she could win. He knew what he had to do; he had to end this, now. StillLogan awoke unable to move, or talk, or breathe. He was completely immobile. Strangely though, he didn't feel like he needed to breathe, but he still wanted to. Logan felt stiff, he wasn't sure if he wanted to breathe more than he wanted to just stretch. On the bright side, he could still feel, hear, and see. All he could see was flowers, grass, and the sky; he could also hear the loud chirping of birds. He was definitely outside, but where? Logan felt grass on his back, but his chest was wet, as if a small cloud had rained on him in just one spot. Then he felt another drop land on his chest with a faint sound. He waited again then felt another drop, this time the sound was much louder and identifiable: a sniffle. It was loud and quick followed by slow stutterd exhale. Somepony was crying. Who? Logan had no clue; once again he wished he could move. The pony stayed for hours untill dusk. A new noise interupted the pony, the crunch of grass from under hoof coming closer. Nothing was said for a while, but the tears kept falling. "Do you think he's awake?" One asked quietly. "I don't know," the other responded softly. "I hope he's okay," the first said, the pony laid down on his chest not even bothering to brush off the tears. He felt comfort from this and wanted to do something when he heard the pony start to cry again. "Sister," Logan knew that voice, Celestia, and where there was Celestia there was Luna, "It pains me to see you like this, but crying over him won't do anything. We can only assume he's listening, unfortunately he can't move or use magic." She was right he couldn't move or use magic, but he didn't use magic, he used electricity the magic was just flushed out. Logan didn't think it would work but it was worth a try, and he could feel he had lots of electricity left because he couldn't heal with a stone body. So with that he slowly moved a bit of electricity over his heart. Logan heard a gasp of delight and Luna wrapped her fore hooves around him as much as she could. "He IS in there," Luna said triumphantly, "Let him out." "I can't yet," Celestia said, "The medical treatment needs to be set up." "Just trust me, sister. He can treat himself," Luna urged. "Does he agree with you?" Celestia asked. Logan sent electricity all over his body he noticed that he could control the wave lengths if he tried and could probably do a song later if he wanted to. "That's close enough to a yes for me," Luna said urgently. "I'm sorry," Celestia said, "As much as I trust you, I want Twilight and her friends' opinion. Even though he has helped, he IS a human." "Uhg Tia why do have to be such a..." Luna searched for the word, "a... a bitch." Celestia was obviously taken aback by this and stood silent. "I'll get Twilight Sparkle, you stay here with Logan," Luna began to leave but then stopped, "If you even try to hurt him, I swear, to the sun," Luna said the last words so gravely, Logan cut the electricity for fear Luna would do the same if he annoyed her. Luna departed leaving Logan and Celestia alone. There was an awkward silence so thick that it could have been cut with a knife. After a while, Logan started his electricity up again and began to play a tune unfamiliar to Celestia, though she did find it quite catchy and started to sway her head back and forth to the rhythm. Once he got bored of that tune he started to play a different song. Celestia was unfamiliar with this one too, but she didn't find it catchy, she found it a bit unnerving. "Can I please have some peace and quiet?" Celestia groaned. Logan stopped, the last thing he was wanted was to get on his marefriend's sister's bad side. Then Logan thought deeper. He was on Luna's good side, and if he got on Celestia's bad side a few things could happen. If Luna was deeply cared and protected him at all costs, Celestia would either give in to Luna or they would get into a fight. If Luna gave in, he could possibly be executed or trapped in stone forever. Wonderful, Logan thought to himself, I could be the cause of deaths or the dead one. He hoped it wouldn't come to that. Suddenly he heard hoof steps behind him, it wasn't Luna because the sound was very light but there was rustling so the pony wasn't trying to sneek up on him or Celestia. "Is he going to be okay, Princess?" a small foal's voice asked. "I don't know my little pony," Celestia replied. "He helped me at the hospital," The foal said, "I had a paper cut, and my brother broke his foreleg, and he fixed us and everypony in the hospital." The foal was silent for awhile but then left. "I forgot to tell you that you're in the public gardens. Because all the guards were stuck in a pod or green goop, I had to move you myself. I have no clue how my guards can even move Discord an inch when I could only get you to the public gardens." Celestia said the last few words chuckling. Silence once again ruled the air. Logan wished he could see Celestia's face, he still really couldn't tell what mood she was in. He also wondered how much damage the city had taken. Luna still wasn't back. At this rate, Logan would be freed in a few months. Hopefully the changelings wouldn't be back soon. Thinking back to when he fought what he thought was the last changelings, there weren't that many. Sure there was a great number of them but it seemed to few. If Chrysalis was planning on invading a capital, she would have brought more. Though the guards did take out a bunch of them, they probably took out more, and just one but end of a spear could knock a changeling unconscious, but presumed to be dead. I just hope there was a thorough clean up, Logan thought to himself. If there hadn't been, he knew whatever was left over was going to be a pain in the neck. Finally Celestia spoke again, "I just have to wonder what you would do if you weren't stone. Would you defend my ponies? Or would you attack them like that last savage that was here? Has your kind changed?" Logan understood Celestia's dilemma. Last time a human came here, apparently they tried to take over, but had they changed. From Celestia's standpoint giving him freedom put her subjects at risk, but keeping him in stone would rise complications with Luna. It's a shame that no matter the evidence, the truth can be just as hard to believe as a lie, Logan thought. Until Convinced otherwise, Celestia was going to keep him in stone. Logan wondered what the rest of Canterlot thought about him, if they had even heard about him at all. He didn't know how long he was out for so word could have spread about him; if it hadn't not much had since he was up at night and sleeping in the day. Finally Logan heard the flapping of wings, and beating of hooves. "I'm back," Luna said. Celestia turned to Twilight and her friends. "Twilight Sparkle," Celestia said, "I cannot make the judgement on the human because I lack experiences with it. From what I have been told, you and your friends are the few who knew this human. For that reason, I leave it to you and your friends to decide, set the human free, or keep him inprisoned." The six mares looked around from one to another, occasionally shifting their stances from the anxiety. Surprisingly, Fluttershy was the first to speak, "I say let him out, he's done nothing wrong, in fact he's actually helped." Rarity joined, "I do side with dear Fluttershy on this matter." Applejack said, "He fought off, timberwolves and changelings with his life on line." Pinkie popped out from under Applejacks hat, "It's true he fought off a bunch of badies! I need to throw him a proper welcome party!" Rainbow dash burst in, "Plus he's got powers, making him twice as good, and twenty percent cooler." "In more ways than one," Luna mumbled into Logan's ear, giggling a little after. He hoped Celestia didn't know about him and Luna, if she did in her current state of mind Logan might as well try to jump off Canterlot and live. Everypony looked to Twilight who knew her opinion meant most to Celestia. Twilight began, "Throghout the few days Logan the human has been here, he has acted selflessly even when faced with death. Every care for himself flung aside without a second thought or hesitation; ready to lay down his life for others, and a land he has known for a very short time. He has stopped timberwolves from slaughtering a whole train of ponies, he healed everypony in the hospital without asking for anything in return, and he was the main reason the changelings failed to take Canterlot, and Equestria. He has saved the lives of many ranging from ordinary ponies to a princess. Therefore, it is my opinion that he should be released." Celestia still had a look of uncertainty, "Princess, despite what happened last time a human was here, the past cannot be changed, but only the present will dictate the future." Celestia looked down at Logan then back at Twilight. "Very well," Celestia said, "I will release him, but if things get out of hoof, it's back to stone." Celestia looked down at Logan and her horn began to glow. Slowly, Logan felt the stone cracking, more and more until he moved and the stone broke completely off. He immediately started healing himself. As the wound healed less and less blood came out until it stopped and he was fully healed. Logan inhaled deeply as he realized he had been holding his breath for quite some time. Logan stretched his arms and legs first. Then, he sat up he turned his body to the left, cracking his back, Celestia cringed at the sound. She did the same when he cracked the right side of his back. "Doesn't that hurt?!" Celestia asked. "Nope," Logan replied. "So, I must officially ask you this, will you side wiith Equestria?" Celestia asked her tone going grave. "Yes," Logan replied in an even graver tone. "You are wise to side with us," Both princesses said at once. "I bet you don't even know what 'wise' means," Logan chuckled. "Yes we do," the sisters replied. Logan chuckled again. "Anyways," Luna said, "Welcome back." "WAIT!" Pinke yelled, "Welcome... welcome... wel... come... OHMYCELESTIA!IFORGOTABOUTTHEWELCOMETOEQUESTRIAPARTY! I'VE GOT SO MANY THINGS TO PLAN!" "Why is she always so..." Logan finish by making a googly eyed face. Author's Note Sorry it took so long, I was sick for awhile (still am) and tired sneak peak to next chapter, wise and clever are different things. The Human's BackpackPinkie had sprung right into action getting food, music, and decorations for the party. Logan tried to convince Pinkie that there was no need for a party, and it would be better not to have a party to keep a low profile. Logan's attempts were all in vain; the pink, puffy maned mare was determined to throw a party. Though Logan agreed that a human coming to Equestria that didn't intend to take over was big, but he didn't think other ponies would be ready to see a human based on the reactions of the ponies that saw him. It had been only two hours since Logan was freed from stone. Luna had put the palace staff to work, they had already patched up his backpack but his clothes were to be thrown away once new clothes were given to him. Logan stayed in Luna's room, but he only looked out over the balcony. Luna tried to snap him out of his trance any way she could, she waved a hoof in front of his face, she tried playing Battlepony 3, she tried telling him jokes, she even tried to squeeze him in a bear hug, but nothing could get Logan out of his trance. Luna was starting to get angry. "Helloooooo," Luna said, "Is Logan in there? I'd like to know what's made him so boring." "Your assumptions based on visuals are incorrect, indicating there is more that could be gained and/or verified from facial expressions and body posture." "Stop talking with big smart words," Luna giggled, "So what's going on inside that noggin of yours?" "Multiple thought processes," Logan replied. "Well let's go through them one at a time," Luna said. "The first is about Chrysalis and the invassion. The who thing seems... off. Her 'soldiers' were way too easy to kill; if Chrysalis tried invading Canterlot before, she wouldn't risk making the same mistakes." "I don't see where you're going with this," Luna said "What I'm saying is that Chrysalis is no idiot. She wouldn't have rushed the invassion plan and made the same mistakes, she would have made sure the plan was well constructed. Problem is, Chrysalis's 'soldiers' seemed unprepared and just ruthless. Which means those 'soldiers' were probably mercenaries of her domain. Chrysalis knew they would die, but they would take out a bit of the guard. Her real soldiers were probably standing by, waiting for an order from Chrysalis to move into the city. But because she was preoccupied with attacking me, but the order never came. The theory would explain why the changelings seemed unprepared and why there were so few of them." An expression of horror dawned on Luna's face as she realized what Logan was saying, "You mean..." "There could be an entire army of changelings right under our noses. The good news is that without Chrysalis to lead them the changelings will cripple. So the changeling army will either break apart and go home or randomly attack in small groups or as individuals" "Useless attempts," Luna said and sigh with relief. "The other thing on my mind is something you might not understand," Logan said. "Tell me anyways," Luna said, "I might understand." "Well... it's about how ponies see me..." Logan began but Luna stopped him. "You're sad because you feel you're respected because ponies fear you," Luna said with a pained look. "Nailed it," Logan said quietly as he looked out into the sky. "I get it," Luna said, "I had the same problem, but it will work itself out." "Not for me," Logan said, "You're a Princess and you had a strong testimony from your sister and the six elements all who ponies trusted. As for me, I only have you. I can sense the six element bearers are still wary." "There is more isn't there," Luna said. "Something bad is going to happen, I just don't know what and when, all I know is that it's bad," Logan said. "How can you tell?" Luna asked. "I can just feel it in my bones," Logan replied. "Do all humans have that?" Luna asked. "It's a figure of speech,"Logan said. "How do you put a finger in your speech?" Luna asked. "Not finger, figure," Logan corrected. "So this figure of peach..." Luna began, but stopped when Logan gave her a tired look, "I'm just pushing your buttons, I know what a figure of speech is. So you feel that something bad is going to happen, is it something like a Pinkie sense." "Yeah... I guess you could say that," Logan said, "It's a bad feeling." Luna wrapped her forehooves around him laying her he on his shoulder. She let go of Logan when they heard the door open. Logan didn't bother to look, he was still thinking about what bad things could possibly happen. "Human," said a pony who was clearly Celestia, "I demand to know what is-" "I have a name you know," Logan said, "You wouldn't want me to call you pony," "Or Sun Butt," Luna giggled. "Shut it Moon Fart," Celestia grumbled. "Somepony woke up on the wrong side of the bar," Logan said with a hint of mockery, "Now what do you want?" "I want to know what's in your saddlebag," Celestia said. "Backpack," Logan corrected her. "Whatever, what's in it?" Celestia asked. Logan turned slowly around and slowly began to walk over to his backpack. When he got to it, he looked at Celestia seriously for a moment before he spoke. "Stuff," Logan said in a monotone. He began to walk away but Celestia stopped him with a hoof. "Just show me what is inside," Celestia groaned impatiently. "Why you can't open it yourself?" Logan snickered. Celestia groaned loudly in frustration. "Fine I'll show you," Logan began to unzip the first main pocket while he added, "Princess Whiney Pants," Logan pulled out the textbooks naming each subject. Celestia didn't see the cover before she began to speak, "Are these books on battle tactics?!" She burst. "No, they're books on what is said they are on; Trigonometry, Economics, Government, World History, German, and Chemistry." "Why do you keep so many books in your backpack?" Luna asked. "Because, the school year was starting in a few weeks when I got here," Logan said, "So I just packed all my textbooks in my backpack." "Is that it?" Celestia asked a little disappointed. "No, I've got pens, pencils, and a calculator with drawings of weird skulls on the cover because I wasn't going to buy a pink cover. There are a few other things in that are in there either because I kept forgetting or I was too lazy to put it in my binder." "What's this," Celestia levitated a small object, the same shade of blue as Luna's coat, out of his bag; it was slightly thinner than the textbooks and was slightly smaller than a piece of paper. "That is my laptop," Logan said as he picked it out of Celestia's golden aurora and set it on Luna's bed. "What's a laptop do?" Celestia asked. "Really Tia?!" Luna said in disbelief, "My language may have been outdated when I came back, but I had a reason. You need to learn more about technology, stone age sister." "On a laptop you can do things like make a word document, or a presentation, or a graph." Logan said, "The best part is the Internet. With it, you can connect to people, or ponies, from around the globe; make webpages; create games; and feul imagination." "That's too much to take in," groaned Celestia. "While you wrap your brain around that," Luna said, "I have some things to discuss with Logan." Celestia left the room her head down in thought. Luna tugged on Logan's hand indicating for him to follow her as she too walked out the door. Logan followed her down a few hallways and stairs before they arived outside in a fairly large area where guards were trained, though they weren't currently. "Let me guess," Logan said, "You think I'm a terrible fighter." "No," Luna said, "In every fight you have been at a disadvantage, so you need to gain an advantage." "So you're saying I need to improve my skills?" Logan's question was answered with a nod from Luna. "One major problem is that you can't fly," Luna said, "But from what I have heard you can use electricity as thrusters of some sort. If you can get more thrust you could jump a little higher." "Or fly?" Logan asked hopefully. "No," Luna said, "But you have enough thrust to get you further off the ground." Logan snapped, "Watch me learn, adapted, and fly!" "Sure," Luna scoffed, "Give up." Logan stopped dead, "What did you just say?" "I said give up," Luna repeated. "Is that how you lost?" Logan asked, "Is that why Chrysalis beat you?" "No! I ran out of energy, I had nothing left to use. I didn't give up!" "Then why are you telling me to give up?!" Logan shouted. "Beacuse that was possible, you flying is not possible!" Luna pushed. "Something becomes impossible when you stop trying," Logan said. Luna opened her mouth to counter but found she could not think of one. "By the way," Logan said, "This is going to be like a dangerous science experiment without a procedure, so you should probably stand back." Luna could agree more and she scurried back ten feet away from Logan. Logan slowly brought electricity to his hands, he didn't let any escape but instead just let the electricity spark on his hands. As more and more came his hands seemed to become electric spheres that got brighter and brighter. Guards came to the training grounds to see what was going on. Logan was suprised at how much electricity he contained, he could feel that he had only brought one pocket of electric into his hand and it was already as bright as a miniature sun. With the electricty so bright Logan thought that he would get almost fifty feet of air. The next thing he could have done quickly, but for the sake of data did it slowly. Logan began to condense the electricity into a single point in the palm of his hand, the more condensed it was the more pressure there would be. It got to about the size of tennis ball until he could condense it no more, now it only as bright as a glowstick. He looked around first to Luna then to the guards at the door, many of whom were now laughing at the size of small size of the electricity. He looked back at Luna who was now retreating to twenty feet. The next part had to be done quickly if he wanted to get any air. Logan crouched low and jumped up as he let out the electricity in one big burst aimed down at the ground. Logan didn't know what happened or how long it had taken until he could feel his face again. It felt cold and his eyes were watering a bit, he was looking at the sky so he knew he was going up. Then Logan looked down which he immediately regretted doing. He didn't know how high up he was, all he noticed was that ponies became ants then became too small to see. I definately learned to ration my electricity, Logan thought to himself. As he slowed down Logan realized something, "Oh shit! I forgot to plan the goddamn landing!" he shouted as the decent began. He wanted to kill himself for forgeting to plan the landing, but he realized to the ground would do that for him if a plan wasn't completed before impact. Logan put his anger aside and tried to come up with a plan, but he couldn't. The best he could think of was bending his knees, but with a drop like this he would be flater than a pancake. What he needed was a cushion, but something that wasn't going to shoot him back up. No, no he couldn't use a cushion, it wouldn't stop him in time or slow him down enough. All he could do was brace for impact... brace... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Back on the ground Luna used her wings to shield herself from the dust that kicked up when Logan released the electricity. She looked back up to see Logan flying up higher and highet, getting smaller and smaller untill she couldn't see him. She searched the night sky for him to come back down but she couldn't find him, then she faintly heard him yell, "Oh shit. I forgot to plan the goddamn landing." The guards heard it as well and some began to fly up to get Logan. "No," Luna said, the guards stopped. "But your Majesty-" one guard began. Logan came back into view, and he was approching the ground quickly. "If he is to learn, he must be forced to make quick decision." Luna said, "I will know if something has or will go horribly wrong," Luna watched as Logan neared the ground, time seemed to slow down as Logan got within a few hundred feet. Luna could see Logan, he was falling nearly at a belly flop but his head was just ahead, his body aimed down at a twenty-five degree angle, arms limp at his sides. His face showed no emotion, and stayed expressionless even as he neared the ground. In the last hundred feet time began to speed up until it was normal and the blur that was Logan hit the ground at terminal velocity, one hundred twenty four miles per hour. A pinhead no moreDust, dirt, and shards of the stone ground flew in all directions. The guards did what they could to avoid the debris, crouched low, covered themselves with their wings, or made a small frontal magic barrier; Luna, however, didn't even flinch. She was about to flap her wings to clear the dust when a breeze dotted with specs of blue electricity blew through. As it passed over her the electricity brought a tingling sensation. The feeling gave her the chills, and for a moment her heart began to race in panic. She quickly pushed the panic down; Logan surrvived his fall into the Everfree Forest, he would surrvive this too. She repeated the logic in her head again, but a hint of doubt hung in her mind. Lucky for her and the guards the breeze had cleared most of the dust, penetrating through the dust was a silhouette slouched over... or crouched down... Luna didn't know which, she was begin to panic again. As the dust fully cleared Luna's heart beat faster and faster until she thought her heart couldn't beat anymore. The dust was clear revealing Logan, unmoving. Luna gave a stuttered exhale, uncertain of Logan's condition. Logan was bent over on one knee, his arms down helping him balance. Logan slowly inhaled as he rose to a standing position, he looked at his shirt and pants then patted the dust off them. He walked out of the indent he made from his legs. Logan walked back a bit, "He he," Logan chuckled lightly, "Hulk smash." Luna lifted a forehoof and hit the back of Logan's head. "Hey what was that for?!" Logan exclaimed rubbing the spot. "For scaring the crap out of me!" Luna snapped back, "You couldn't have yelled something like, 'hey I'm okay,'?!" "I was a little preoccupied with checking if I was alive," Logan replied. "So how did you survive?" Luna asked. "I use electricity to reinforce my bones and to shield points of impact from being damaged," Logan explained. "Electroskeleton," Luna said. "Nice name," Logan agreed then continued, "Why does distruction follow wherever I go?" "Because you're the wrecking ball, and you don't make the damage, others do," Luna chuckled, "Besides, what's the worst that could happen?" "Never say those words, they always lead to bad things," Logan warned. "Yeah right, the changelings are gone and they were the only threat," Luna said, "It's nothing but smooth sailing from here." "Don't jinx it," Logan said. "You're starting to sound like Pinkie Pie," Luna said, "Come on, we've got to get you in your new clothes for the party." Logan wasn't sure what Luna had requested to be made, all he hoped was that it wasn't something uncomfortable. Luna lead the way back to her room, but just as they passed Celestia's room they heard a thud. "No. Where is it?" Celestia's muffled voice said. Luna stopped and poked her head into the room. "What are you looking for?" Luna asked. "Nothing! Nothing!" Celestia said hastily, but Luna could tell what she was looking for. "It's under the bed," Luna said. "What is?!" Celestia said loudly pretenting not to understand. "You know what is," Luna said, "And by the way, since Anvil and Hammer are my personal guards I did make them emortal." "I'm... very happy," Celestia said confused. "I know you are," Luna said, "Especially for Anvil." Celestia didn't respond and Luna continued down the hall again with Logan trailing her. As they turned a corner Logan spotted Shining Armor. He tried his best to walk quietly by while faces were in the ground bowing to Luna as she passed, but Shining Armor Didn't bow, he saluted Luna instead. Logan tried to walked past without making eye contact, but Shining Armor put up a hoof stopping him. Logan prepped his electricity for a shield just in case Shining Armor decided to try exterminating Logan. "Hey listen, I'm real sorry about blasting you off Canerlot," Shining Armor said, "I wasn't informed at the time of the things you did." "It's fine," Logan said, "You acting like that shows how much you want to protect others." Luna grabbed Logan's arm with her magic sending him falling face first of the floor. She ignored this and kept pulling, dragging Logan down the hall. "The floor itn't forgiving, nor does it taste good." He eventually got to his feet and got close enough to Luna where she released him from her magic. Luna looked at Logan and luaghed, "What happened to your face?" "You know very well what happened," Logan grumbled healing the cuts on his face. "You know, I just noticed how high your cheekbones are," Luna said. "So what? I noticed there's a wall that you're about to walk into," Luna turned before hitting the wall, "I also noticed that most things in nature are controlled by ponies." "And it isn't the same in your world?" Luna asked astonished. "Where I come from, when you pick a fight with nature, you eventually end up getting your ass handed to you," Logan said, "So you either adapt to nature, or get killed." "Sounds harsh," Luna commented. "It's not so bad," Logan added, "Through time humans, slowly but surely, got smart enough to work around nature. However if nature doesn't kill you, time will." "What do you mean," Luna asked confused. "Think about it, everything must come to an end. I'm going to eventually die, my friends and family will eventually die, even the blue and green ball we humans call home will one day cease to existist. Now that last one will hopefully happen after humans go extinct, because experiencing the end of the world would not be pleasant; well the end of humanity wouldn't be pleasant either." "You're so negative." Luna said in a scolding tone. "I just face facts," Logan said, "Death is not a happy thing, because the brain saves the worst but most important thing for last: awareness that you're dying." "Well when you put it like that..." Luna needn't finish the sentence. The rest of the walk was in silence, only the sound of Luna's hoofs could be heard on the floor. Logan's step was close to being completely silent. Luna turned back every now and again to make sure Logan was still following her. When Luna entered her room she looked for the clothes that were supposed to be done, she didn't see them anywhere though. "Good fit," Logan said. Luna turned to see he already had them on. She looked at him with a puzzled face, then she looked back out into the hall, then back to Logan, and once again into the hall. "How..." Luna pointed from Logan to the hall. "Ninjas, aliens, and Cinnamon Toast Crunch," Logan said, "You'll never understand me." "That I can agree on," Luna said nodding her head, "So how do they feel?" "This feels like the underside of a comfy blanket." Logan said, "These pants feel like... like..." Logan rubbed the pant legs against his legs, "Well they feel like pants." "Well that's a dumb way to describe them," Luna sighed. "Well then," Logan said, "How 'bout I lie and say... 'Oh I feel like I don't even have pants on! It's like I'm running around in my boxers!'" "Don't ever say something like that," Luna said. "How do I look?" Logan asked. "Really cool," Luna said, "See for yourself," Luna levitated Logan into the bathroom. Logan had to agree he did look... a little cool. The t-shirt was blue with spots that faded to green, gray, or black here and there. The sleeves went down to his elbows and was hanging only half and inch down. The bottom of the shirt went down to the middle of the top pockets on his pants. The pants were all black and they weren't jeans, they were cargo pants. Black cargo pants, with two pockets where most pants had them and two back pockets. Then there were pockets on the pantlegs above his knees two identical, then under them were more still above the knees. Under the top cargo pocket on his right was a wide but shallow pocket. Under the top cargo pocket on his left were two small shallow pockets side by side. "Excellent" Luna said, "Now I can get a good look at you without you being half naked from holes in your clothes." She slowly circled him with a smile on her face. Logan felt like she was smiling a bit too much. "How do I look altogether?" Logan asked. "Handsome." "What?" "I said, um, awesome. You look awesome!" Just then the door clicked, and began to open. Author's Note Sorry it took so long. I thought that since the like dislike ratio was so terible compared to other stories (even new ones not as poppular) but I decided not to let that get me down later. Now in another matter, do you all remember the infamous saying "Trust the writers"? Well to prevent that I have a solution, "Trust the readers". The question is do you want me to keep the character in this timeframe or find a way to update the timeframe (ie put season three into orbit some how)? leave your answers in the comments or mail it to me by the site. PLEASE LIKE THE STORY IF YOU LIKE WHAT IM DOING OR IF I SHOULD JUST ABANDON THE STORY! The Bad ThingIt's was quite obvious as to whom was at the door: Celestia, Goddess of nosing into others' business. "I'm naked!" Logan lied. and the door immediately slammed shut. "He's just joking, Tia." Luna called. The door opened slowly as Celestia peaked around it, just to be on the safe side. Once she was sure all necessary clothes were apllied she stepped into full view, then started trotting over to Logan with an angry glare. "Nope." Logan dove under the bed, thinking it was safe under there. But Celestia started jumping on it, crushing him again and again. Luna put an extra bounce in the bed and shot Celestia up in the air and landing in a corner of the room. "I swear, Luna!" Celestia said, "To the moon." Logan moved his head out from under the bed and looked at Luna then Celestia. "She really can't take a joke," Logan said partially amazed and partially annoyed. "I just came up to tell you lots of ponies are waiting," "Yeah, hurry up slow pokes," Rainbow Dash said loudly from the balcony. "How long have you been there?!" Logan shouted supprised as he crawled all the way out from under the bed. "Since you came out with your new outfit, and I heard everything." Rainbow said with a smirk. She raised her eyebrows suggestively from Luna to Logan. "Shut up!" Luna shot back. "I never said anything," Rainbow smirked, "But I did see some... other things." Rainbow Dash flew over and put a foreleg and leaned in so only they could hear. "You two were really going at it." "RAINBOW DASH!" Luna's mane and tail erupted into flames, as did the pupils of her eyes. Rainbow tried to bolt but Luna stamped her tail to the ground. She grabbed a pair of saddlebags in her magic and started beating Rainbow over the head with them, yelling as she hit. "Why--the buck--did you--watch--us do it?!" Luna screamed. Rainbow's answers were grunts of pain as she tried to stop the barrage. Suddenly Logan felt a force on his back, pinning him to the ground. Celestia with her hoof on Logan's back started beating him over the head with another pair of saddlebags, yelling just as Luna had done. "Why--the buck--did you--do--my sister?!" Celestia roared. She took her hoof off to get a better stance as she took another pair of saddlebags. Logan tried crawling to the door. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hammer and Anvil, Luna's two personal gaurds, were out side guarding the door. The door opened and Logan crawled far enough to see the two guards. "Help me!" Logan said, but he was pulled back in, "Aw cra-" *Slam* the door shut cutting him off. There was a long silence then Anvil spoke up. "Think we should help him?" he asked. Hammer put his wing on his chin and thought for a moment. "Nah, he's fine." And both gurads resumed their job. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Thwack* *Thud* *Smack* "To be honest, I did him," Luna said. Rainbow Dash, who was now rubbing her sore head, had been let go. Celestia stopped her attack and stared slack jaw at Luna. "I kind of forced him to." Luna added. Logan flipped over and sat up rubbing his head as well. "You couldn't have said that a little earlier?!" Logan said annoyed. Celestia glarred at him and kicked him in the groin with her back leg. In response Logan curled up into a ball on his side clutching the pained area. "Oh no!" Luna started, "Are you okay?" "Never been worse," Logan replied in a raspy groan, "I'm just going to lie here for a while." "She was Nightmare Moon half the time they were doing it," Rainbow said. Logan could feel Celestia glaring again and rolled away leaving her to stomp on the empty ground. Logan rolled around to safety behind Luna. "You're not helping him Rainbow," Luna said, "Why were you even watching?" "Well, you were on that balcony looking like Nightmare Moon for so long, that I got a little suspicious. So I kept a lookout then I started to see things that I wish I didn't. It was so ugly, and horrible, and... oh who am I kidding! It was hot!" Logan, who had gotten over the pain and had stood up, was a deep crimson red and was doing his best to keep a straight face. Luna was also blushing but only on a small portion of each cheek; her her eyes were looking anywhere away from others and her mouth was screwed up in embarrassment making a funny face. "Ahem." Celestia said. The two slowly turned around to see Celestia on fire. Her entire body a flame with the outline of an alicorn princess. Logan and Luna slowly backed towards the balcony. "Um, I think you two got your point across," Logan said nervously. "Yes," Luna agreed with a shaky voice, "That we are late to the party. We will be going now-" "-Via express route!" Logan shouted as he jumped off the balcony into the cool night air. Luna didn't even look to see if her sister was chasing after her before following Logan off into the air. Logan started releasing electricity out of his hands, more and more until he found a range where he could hover. The sound it made was quite soothing, a low humming. Oddly though, he felt only a light wind. Electric wind must disapate quickly Logan thought to himself. It would make sense, to knock back those zombies he needed to use a full pocket of electricity and even that ran out of steam in a short distance. Before he could move to another thought he was enveloped in a blue aurora and levitated back into the room. Celestia had calmed down and was no longer in flames; although she still held a frown of disapproval. "First of all, jumping off the balcony was not a smart idea," Luna said, " Second, was this horrible encounter the bad thing you were feeling?" Logan paused and looked up in thought. Logan still felt something worse was going to happen. He stilled didn't know what, but if it was worse, he didn't think he would make it out alive. If I tell Luna the truth she may worry, Logan thought, I'd rather not spend the moments before I die with others worrying about me. But if I do tell her the whole thing could possibly be avoided, no guarantee. Logan looked at Celestia then Luna and thought some more. Celestia really cares about her ponies, and her sister. She still sees me as a possible threat, a war threat. If I die it will be a great weight off her mind. However, if I live, I will still be on thin ice. That stupid bastard that came here before me must have left a large number of Celestia beloved ponies six feet under. With a grudge like that, there is no way I could possibly get on her good side. If Luna loses me, I don't know how she'll react. Best case scenario she just blows it off like I never existed. Logan didn't want to think about a worst case scenario. Luna put a leg around him in a sideways hug. "Will you be okay?" Luna asked. Of course she meant "Is that bad thing still there?" but to Logan it was much different. What about me? Logan thought, I'm no fan of dying, but it seems like the best option. Right now I'm a 'threat' to an entire nation, and I'm no longer much of a defender. With the recent attack they probably learned to be prepared. They'll most likely keep those Elements of Harmony very close by. So I'll be bad, purposeless, and still don't know if I have a way home. If I die at least I can hope to go to some sort of heaven. But If I live there is still a chance to get back home. Home... God, I want to go home, I want to see my parrents and siblings again. "Logan, please tell me that was the bad thing," Luna said a little worry in her voice. "Um... Yeah, I think that was the bad thing," Logan lied. "Oh thank goodness." Luna sighed with relief, and smiled as she lay her head on his shoulder, "Glad to know everything is going to be fine." "Yeah... me too," Logan said softly. I just hope that I won't have to wait for my family in the afterlife. Out of the corner of his eye Logan thought he saw a golden aurora around Celestia's horn fade away. He wasn't sure if he saw correctly or not, either way he didn't care. Finally Celestia spoke up, "How about we get going." Logan was a bit surprised at how she sounded, it was barely louder than a whisper. Her voice was smooth and caring, almost like a mother; although he didn't know why she suddenly decided to talk like that. "Okay," Luna said and the three walked out of the room and down the hall. "I hope those ponies haven't been waiting too long," Logan said. "They've been waiting since you left the guard training grounds," Celestia said, "They thought the blue flare you sent up was a signal to gather for the party early." "Eh hehe, funny thing though," Logan said nervously, "That wasn't a flare, that was me." "Somehow that doesn't surprise me," Celestia sighed. "So what's so big about Pinkie's parties? I mean parties are awesome, but why are they so huge when Pinkie is throwing them?" Logan asked. "Because parties are Pinkie Pie's special talent," Luan replied, "She knows everything about parties here." "Yeah, though I doubt she knows everything about parties in my world," Logan said sadly. "Do they have... cake?" Luna asked "Yup." "Balloons?" "Yeah." "Pin the tail on the pony?" "Kind of and sometimes." "Bananas?" Celestia cut in. "What? Sometimes." "DJ?" Luna continued. "Sometimes." "Those of the opposite gender?" "Ja." "Friendly ponies?" "Friendly people, yes." "Streamers?" "Affirmative." "A banner here and there?" "Check." "So is there anything else that wasn't listed?" "Do you have a party marker?" Logan asked. "A what?" "Something that labels the gathering as a party." "I need an example." Luna said. "Well it usually is something or someone breaking. Like the label phrase." "What's the label phrase?" Celestia asked. "Hold my beer and watch this!" Logan said, Celestia snickered. "You drink?!" Luna said shocked. "No, for parties I attended beer was replaced with soda." Logan chuckled. "What happens after that?" Celestia asked trying to hold in her laughter. "Said speaker usaully jumps off something and shakes hands with the floor using his or her face." Celestia burst into a fit of crying laughter. "See I told you he's funny!" Luna said triumphantly. "Yeah," Celestia laughed trying to wipe away the tears, "I can't breathe!" Celestia swayed from side to side as she gasped for air. "Well, I think we should lay off the funnies until we get to the party, in the gardens." Luna said, Logan nodded in agreement. "So, I was wondering about recent events," Logan began, "What's the history with the changelings? And that Discord thing, what is he all about? And this magic of friendship, what is it? "Let me start with the changelings first," Celestia said, "Next to this attack, the changelings recent attack was durring Shinning Armor and Princess Cadence's wedding." "That must have been the world record for worst wedding day." Logan commented. "It was! Especially for Cadence. She was thrown down into a mine and replaced by a changeling queen who manipulated her soon to be husband. Even after everypony found out, the queen almost managed to defeat us. I didn't expect another attack so soon." Celestia went into her thoughts for awhile as they walked out the main gate and down the steps onto the street in the cool night air. "As for Discord," Luna picked up, "He is set in stone for throwing Equestria into turmoil. He turned buildings upside down, corn into popcorn, dirt roads into bubble roads, grass into tile, clouds into cotton candy, and he made them rain choclate milk. The thing I don't get is that when he filled up a glass with chocolate milk, he would drink the glass and throw the chocolate milk which would explode." "Now the magic of friendship, it is something so powerful that it helps feul the elemenst of harmony, each of the six ponies you first met wields an element. The elements are: honesty, loyalty, generosity, kindness, laughter, and the most powerful, magic." "Oh I know how powerful magic is," Grumbled Logan. "Shshshshhhhh." Luna said wrapping Logan's head in he forelegs, "No more tears." "I wasn't crying, I was complaining," Logan snapped turning the wrap up into a hug, "But hugs never hurt." "Alright lovebirds, get back to walking," Celestia urged. "So, where in the garden is the party?" Logan asked. *BOOM* "SURPISE!" Logan fell over from the jumpscare. "Nice lungs, Mare," Rainbow Dash said. "I did not scream!" Logan exclaimed. "You're right, you really shrieked like a little filly," Rainbow teased. "Well RD, y'all got the voice of a colt," Applejack said. "Girls, girls, stop fighting!" Twilight said. "Theres no fighting at a PARTY!" Pinkie Pie bounced, "Unless it's a pillow fight at a slumber party." "I don't like fighting," Fluttershy agreed softly. "Then you definitely won't like what's coming next." Another joined in. Logan looked to to see a pony staring back at him angrily, but soon the pony was gone. All he was looking at was a changeling. "Looks like we we've got a party pooper," Logan said. "Make that party poopers," the changeling buzzed. It fired a ball of green magic that exploded in the sky. Almost immediately thought-to-be ponies started turning into changelings from everywhere. They took flight and buzzed in the sky. The ponies who weren't changelings ran behind the princesses. The changelings began to land from afar, forming into three blocks. "There must be at least three hundred." Luna said. "Now we know how many changelings were leftover." "You think you beat use because you killed our queen!" The first changeling buzzed, "We have generals to take over when the queen is killed!" "Teams ready!" The changeling yelled. "Team back up?!" A block of changeing yelled back. "Team lock?!" Another block of changelings yelled back. "Team clone! Fire!" "Team clone?!" Logan exclaimed. Before he could ting further the block of changelings fired into the general changeling who fired at Logan. The shot was too fast to react to until if was upon him. Pain shot and resonated through every inch of his body. It felt like he was being ripped apart in every direction. The pain lasted for a few seconds until there was an explosion throwing Logan back a few feet landing on his back. Ponies gasped, as Logan sat up he gasped too. Floating in an aurora of green was the silhouette of another human. "Team back up!" The block of changelings responded immediately, streams of green aurora brought fourth black blob moving around. The blob was floated over to the silhouette and merged with it. A voice boomed from the air, "I doth live again!" The aurora broke and the human landed with ease. He looked at his hands and flexed his muscles "It seems that I hath regained mine youth!" He shouted happily. Then he looked at the princess and scowled, "Ah, Celestia. My youth shall taste most wonderous with vengeance to accompany it." "Leo Ulric, I'd hoped I'd never see you again!" Celestia growled. "Thine hopes hath doomed thee." Leo shot back. A low ring of fire swirled around him. "So you will not end your conquest ambitions?" Celestia asked. "Nay! By mine kings orders I am to concur this land for him!" Leo shouted back. "Last time we met you were in your forties as I remember." "I am but a fifteen year old now," Leo smirked, "Much battle experience from such a youth!" "Well all of your men are waiting for you in the afterlife." "Not for long," The changeling general said, "Team back up, life transfer!" The changeling block began to desintegrate into a block of green auroras with flesh inside. They shot out into the night sky and disappeared. "Your army shall soon have restored glory, human." "Mine king will be most pleased to hear this!" Leo said triumphantly. "Sorry Leo, but your king has been dead at most 978 years." Celestia said as Logan finally got to his feet. "Lies thou weavest from thine tongue!" Leo spat. Finally Leo noticed Logan looking oddly at him, "Tell me brother, what news dost thou have of his majesty?" "The latest news?" Logan said sarcastically, "The king was burried in a marked grave. I'm no brother of yours, the current year back on earth was 2012. All the land has been taken, and countries have formed." Leo looked from Celestia to Logan and back. "Lies! All lies!" Leo shouted his hands engulfed in flames. "Whoa, easy there!" Logan said, "Let's all just calm down." "Thou hast no idea how much pain we hath endured." Leo said angrily, "To watch those you fought alongside or for die in front of your very eyes, to feel the pain of battle wounds, and to leave your family, children, and spouse, for a war." Leo did not know how hard that point hit home. "How old were you?" Logan asked "We were twenty five when we were abruptly taken from our land, but in a few years learned to jump relms. At thirty seven the war started, at least we were able to say goodbye to our family." "You got it easy," Logan said, Leo looked at him in shock, "I was taken not a month ago, without warning. Not even a second to say goodbye to my parents or siblings. I know I should start pulling my weight myself around fifteen, but survive in another world is not what that means." "Hast thou endured physical pain?" Leo asked. "Oh plenty," Luna said, "He's made giant craters using himself, got a good socking from timberwolves he demolished, and had a giant hole that you could look through right in his stomach." "How bad was it?" Leo asked. "Well, some jornalists that went into a frenzy from the attack were near and got some photos." Celestia teleported some photos over to Leo. One showed Logan recoiling in pain. Another Logan was trying to work his way off the dagger like wood sticking out a foot and a half. The next picture was Logan's arm inside Chrysalis's chest, Logan's face wasn't visible, Chrysalis's pupils were small specks on the white of her eyes. Her mouth was open failing to gasp for air and fresh blood flowed from her nose. "This one is the most disturbing to look at." Celestia warned. Leo looked at the last picture, Logan was standing wide stance in the fountain, a cloud of bloody water was at his legs. The hole from the wood was visible in the picture, it was in the center of his belly. The hole was at least eight inches in diameter, blood was floowing out the front and dripping down from the top of the hole. Some of his intestines were loosely hanging out the front, the rest were slumped inside making other organs visible. With his clothes soaked in blood he stared angrily off camera at Chrysalis, his eyes were filled with anger, disgust, and an untold amount of hatred. "With all this pain, why dost thou continue to stay?" "Becasuse I don't have a way back," Logan said. "Then join us, unlock we have the power to take us home," Leo said. "Thanks, but from what I've heard, once I'm gone you'll attack Equestria. Now your king is dead, all land is set in countries which you can join, and you'll have a good chance out in the world as long as you don't tell anyone your from the midieval period. So will you cease your attacks now?" Leo looked down in though. "Never," Leo spat. "Then from this point on we are enemies." Logan said. Leo looked around to see horns lighting, spears raising, and many ponys began to stomp the ground. Leo knew he had no chance against two princesses so he ran. Leo jumped of the nerest edge of Canterlot and shot off fire trailing behind him. "Now that everything is cleared up," the changeling general said, "Team lock! fire!" Logan hadn't noticed the entire time a block of changelings was preparing to fire, all eyes were on Leo giving the changelings time. Logan could only take the hit. The changelings turned into aurora, and zipped over to Logan, the aurora swirled up and around him quickly becoming smaller. As it closed around him he realized something this was the bad thing. Soon the aurora srank to nothing and Logan was nowhere to be seen. Darkness, Regret, and GuiltLogan opened his eyes. He wasn't sure if he had been out for long, or out at all. He could have been poorly teleported. He was lying on his back, but what was under his back was nothing but blackness. To his left was darkness, to his right was pitch black. Strangely though he could still see himself perfectly, it was like someone photo shopped him onto a black background. He leaned up a bit on his elbows looking around, but all he saw was black, black, and more black. The darkness just went on and on, in every direction. Up, down, left, right, in front, behind, and every in between, the darkness conquered it all. Logan got to his feet and looked around some more, but there was no change, darkness still ruled the air. He took a step foreward, carefully placing his foot down as to make sure that the blackness did not suddenly drop off. He repeated the process again for a few more step; to an onlooker he would look like some crazy, not trusting the ground he was standing on. Slowly tiptoeing foreward, like a child sneaking downstairs for a midnight snack. At this rate the Mars Rover will catch me in no time! Logan thought sarcastically. He was sure he could save himself from a fall if one of his steps did go awry. He sped up to very slow steps, still taking in his surroundings, looking for something different. "This place is blacker than Helen Keller's world." Logan said a bit of worry working its way into his brain. He speed his pace to a slow walk, still hoping to find change in the seemingly endless void. Where the hell am I?! Logan wondered, What kind of place goes on forever in complete black? No place as far as he knew of. He remembered everything before he opened his eyes to darkness. Changelings brought back asshole who went and tried to take over last time. Changelings fly off in a "life transfer". Changelings change into a green tornado. It was tornado, he didn't know what it did, but it was the tornado. Was he lost? Just walking in a place so dark that he couldn't see the actual features of the landscape around him? His pace sped to a normal walk. No the ground outside is never this flat, and if he was outside there would be vegetation to make a shuffling sound and on dirt, a scraping sound. Night time was the logical option for time of day, but the moon wasn't visible nor were the stars. Of course, he could be inside, artificial floors would explain the flatness. Being inside would also explain why the sun, moon, and stars weren't visible. As far as he knew he could be walking in circles, or he really was in a big room. A cave wasn't a possibility, there wasn't a single air current or breeze to be felt. With the results he was getting it he could be anywhere. Logan's pace quickened to a fast walk. If he kept walking he would eventually hit a wall or obstacal this couldn't go on forever. What if he was trapped in here forever?! Dying a slow painful death! Logan's pace quickened to a jog. What if I'm already dead?! Logan thought dreadfully, Doomed to walk in this darkness for eternity! Eternity and forever, the two things that a brain can't comprehend. Logan broke into a full sprint, "I can't be dead!" he panted, "It can't end like this! Damned to be alone in this darkness forever! I've got to find something, someone, anything! I won't spend the rest eternity like this!" Logan collapsed onto the ground gasping for air. It was hopeless, he was stuck here. Forsaken to spend the rest of his days in an endless darkness. "I wish somepony would have heard the truth," Logan panted, "Though this entire thing still could have been unvoidable." Logan rested on his knees, his head bent over touching the ground and his arms on the sides of his head. For to first time in years he wept. What's done is done, Logan reminded himself, Crying won't fix anything. Nopony could stop that shot, at least I know it wasn't their fault I'm stuck here. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Luna choked on the lump forming again in her throat. Tears welled up in her eyes and she silently let them stream down her face and onto the stone of her balcony, which soaked them up quickly. It all happened so fast, the changelings raise the dead, then Logan was gone in a green swirl. The changeling general flew off with a spare block of changelings, most likely in the direction of the hive. Celestia wrapped her sister in her wing, but kept quiet. Luna looked at Celestia and smiled at the blurry version of her sister. "He's in a better place now," Luna said. "Yes, and if you need to talk to me about this, I'm here for you." Celestia replied. "Do you think it hurt?" Luna asked "Only for a second," Celestia reassured her, "Then the pain would be all gone." Luna sniffled, "You know, years go by and this is still the hardest part of the job: watching others go." "I know, I know" Celestia said, "But that's something both of us can't change." "What do you think his afterlife is like?" "What do you mean?" "Where was he told he would go when he died?" "Probably some sort of paradise." "I hope so, he deserved it." There was a long silence before Celestia spoke again. "I'll be in my room, don't hesitate to come to me if you need anything." Celestia slowly, with a smile, walked out of the room. Once she was out of sight she let out a deep breath and dropped the smile. "Sometimes, keeping this smile in grief is the hardest part." She said aloud. "That's why you don't have to keep it around a few others." Hammer said. Celestia held her breath in embarrassment, she could clear her sister's ears, but not the guards'. "I understand that she is at a loss, but you should have helped her move on by now." Anvil said. "You are correct," Celestia agreed, "The problem is I haven't got over his death." "With all respect, Princess, you and Logan weren't good... or even okay friends." Hammer said. "It's not his absence that I trouble over," Celestia corrected, "I fight myself on the inside because of his death." "I don't think I understand, Princess." Hammer said, Anvil nodded in agreement. "You wouldn't, it's complicated," the solar princess replied as she walked off towards her room. She knew the only one who would understand was herself. As she walked down to her room the guards had the same look on their face as they always did. They all looked a little angry or serious, but mostly they had a blank expression. However, when Celestia looked at them, the anger and seriousness turned to anger and accusation. Guards straight forward down a hall while others in the middle of the halls scanned left and right. As a guard, it was their job to check over anypony that went past. Just a quick glance and double check, then all would be well. But as some of the guards looked at her, the anger and accusation seemed to come out. Those stationed to look forward only seemed to be watching her, ready and wait if she decided to try to bolt. Shining Armor was walking down the opposite way, Celestia spoke up to take her mind off the stares. "Captain Armor, how are the guards? Have any not been taking duties seriously?" "All are in tip-top shape your majesty." Shining replied, "All the guards are doing just fine. How's your job going today?" Celestia inwardly winced at the question. "Just... fine. Keep up the good work." she said quietly as she continued her walk. She looked at guards she passed who all just gave her the same angry look. She just couldn't shake the feeling that they were angry towards her. Finaly she couldn't take, "Don't any of you guards ever smile!" The guards didn't respond, and they still looked angry. "Uhhhhhgggg!" Celestia groaned loudly in frustration. She stormed the rest of the way to her room. Celestia shut the door forcefully and leaned on it when she was in. She pressed her ear to the door for a few seconds, after she had confirmed there was silence outside she let out a sigh of relief. Thousands of years go by and one thing never changes, I'm the only one that understands me. She thought to herself. She walked over to her nightstand and opened the only drawer it had. She stood quiet, checking again to make sure nopony was listening in. Once she reassured herself that she was clear, she turned her attention back to her nightstand. Celestia pulled her diary from the drawer and tossed it onto her bed. She walked over to her desk and opened a drawer directly under the middle of the desk. She rummaged around in the drawer, pushing aside sticky notes, index cards, a few paperweights she rarely used, ribbons, a few boxes of red wax, stamp molds, and a book mark or two. She pulled out a glass of ink and two quills from the cluttered mess and walked back to her bed. She layed herself on the comfortable bed and opened her diary to the last page and whispered into the center of the page, "Sunspot," The diary responded by making more pages appear and the words of her earlier entries visible. She opened the ink, dipped a quill, and began to write. Little time has passed since my last entry. Though it was a few days, more things happened in those days than I ever thought possible. It all started a few days ago when I had gotten word of a human in Equestria. As earlier entries show, the last human that was here left many of my ponies dead, scared land across Equestria, and me with numerous nightmares. It was because of these that I had decided to stop this human before things got out of hoof. Unfortunately I was attacked and sealed away by Chrysalis, the changeling queen. I was filled in on what happened after. Apparentely, Chrysalis had the same idea and tried to kill him. My sister, however, had different plans. She trusted the human, and because of her the human survived the attack Chrysalis threw at him while disguised. I thought no good could come from this, but I was wrong. He healed a full hospital of ponies, fought off the changeling queen, and before all of this happened he had fought timberwolves off a train in what I could call a pretty badass way. However, the last human that came to Equestria also did some good, not as much good as this one, but still. When I was released from my prison, I was quickly informed of this and one other thing: the human was battling the changeling queen to buy time for Twilight and her friends to get me out. This brought some unrest in my mind, the human had gained everyponys' favor except for mine. My mind was overtaken in a debate between the two possiblilities, the human was really good, or this is just an elaborate hoax to gain our trust. I kept skeptical because I thought that the human was an adult like the last one. I, however, was wrong. I found the human fighting the changeling queen on the steps leading to the main entrance of the castle. As I guessed he was fifteen years of age, and beating the chitin off Chrysalis, though he was nowhere close to being in okay condition. He was soaked in a mixture of blood and water with an eight inch wide hole went through with organs showing. Against my better judgement I put him in stone with the excuse that I needed to set up medical supplies. They bought the excuse, thankfully. It appeared, though, that he was still aware of the things around him. Luna pressed for him to be released, and not wanting to start a fight, I obliged but delayed his release as long I could. After that, the human seemed to be distant, deep in thought. He kept saying he could feel something bad was going to happen. I was suspicious that this bad thing was him turning against us. So when my sister asked if the bad thing happened, I wanted to know what he was thinking. So I used my magic to read his mind. I wish I hadn't. I heard, or felt, everything. He was worried about my sister and I. He knew this bad thing hadn't happened, but he was worried if he told the truth he might live. He thought how Luna would handle his absence and hoped she would brush him off and forget about him. As for me, he was still worried that I might never trust him. Then when he thought about himself. He said that he didn't like the idea of dying, but death seemed like the best option. I thought he was joking, but as he thought further, I began to feel worse and worse, because he was kind of right. He was still, at the time, seen as a threat; he was porposeless, because we do now keep the elements closer to their bearers; and what made me feel the worst, he had no way home. I was so caught up in making sure that he wasn't going to turn against us, that I forgot he's just a teen. He didn't want to come here, he didn't even get a choice. After that he went through an unimaginable amount of pain, and still I didn't trust him. Maker, I'm a fool and I was too stupid and blind to see what a good friend he could have been. What's worse is that he was taken away from more than just his home, he was taken away from his family. Mother, father, and even siblings. I felt a surge of sadness hit me but I somehow managed to push it down for a little bit. Then he thought one last thing, "I just hope that I won't have to wait for my family in the afterlife". I had to quickly cast a spell to hide the tears that streamed down my face. Celestia paused to let the tears flow off her face and onto the bed instead of the pages. After a shuddering breath, she continued. The three of us, Luna, Logan, and myself, walked down to a party Pinkie Pie had throw just for him. Sadly he didn't get enough time to enjoy it. Changelings showed up and resurrected Leo, the first human to come here. Last time that I saw him he was nothing but a burned pile of ash. However, using Logan as a template age and Leo's spirt as the form, he was brought back and still had his powers. Leo flew off into the night, following changelings who would give their life to bring back the human army. With the changelings' size and magic, I fear that the human army may be up to full strength soon. My sadness was put aside with rage against Leo, and against Logan. In my mind I blamed Logan for all of this, when none of it was. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw changelings preparing a spell. From my numerous years with magic, I could easily identify that it was sealing spell. The user dies in order to wipe away a magic code to break the time early, in short there is no way of knowing how long Logan will be gone. But there was something different in the spell, the part of the spell that prevents aging was missing from it. Replaced with a simple teleportation spell. Why? I have no clue. The attack hit Logan sealing him away for however long the users magic can hold out. If he's lucky, the changelings were starving with no love to feed on from the changelings' last attack. And now here I am, telling Luna that he's dead so she can let go easier, and just sitting in my room. Of all the things, I think the worst part is that this is my fault, I saw that attack and had the warning. The worst is dealing with the guilt that I could have saved him, but because of my anger, I didn't. Author's Note There you have it. Next chapter may have Logan getting out, or may build to end with a trolling cliffhanger. I hoped you liked this chapter, don't forget to like this story if you haven't, and I egerly await your, reactions and comments. BTW Comment something even when you have nothing to say. ie: I got nuttin to say so I'll just post a random comment "JELLY DOUGHNUTS!!!!!!!! And thank you for shopping at Walmart." A Short "To Do" List, and a TherapistLogan looked around him for, what he counted to be, the seven hundred nineteenth time. The darkness quickly drove him insane; to keep himself from going to full shutdown mode, he began looking at things differntly. He smiled to the darkness as it was everything to, and for him. One would think the darkness could only break an individual, but instead, Logan let it build him up. Something so shunned and simple, was also the most peaceful, inspiring, and comforting. The darkness was everything to him. The simplicity of the darkness became familiar, and made him feel at home after a while. The darkness was there when he fell asleep, and it was there when he woke up. It always remained pleasant, suttle to wake, yet urged him to sleep. As the time between rest and wake passed he would feel lonely, so the darkness comforted him and kept him company, wrapping it's arms around him in a warm hug. The darkness told him to make the best of things, telling him if something seemed bad it could be made better. He just needed to appreciate the things he had, even if there weren't that many. Though he did his best to stay positive, there were moments when positive attitude fell through, but just for a split second. This split second seemed like nothing at first, but slowly that split second added up to a full second, which added up to a minute, which added up to an hour. When his positive mood fell, his sanity slowly fell with it. Each time he lost a small piece of his sanity, and sooner or latter, those pieces would make a whole. In short, the sane would eventually become insane. To keep his mind of his situation he did the one thing he could do in this darkness: exercise. Push-ups, sit-ups, running and others that didn't require equipment. It worked better than he expected, when he was done he would usually fall do the one other thing he could do: sleep. Since his body stayed on his internal clock, he could count the days. And so he fell into the repetition, wake up, admire darkness, exercise, go to sleep. It was his "to do" list for every day; it didn't bother him all that much, because he didn't have to expect anything different. Some might say it was boring, he would say it was orderly and calm. But was it really all worth it? He knew eventually he would go insane, so why was he doing this? Just so he could delay the inevitable? He thought about the question. Probably because he wanted to savor every moment of his sanity. He better enjoy it now, because based on the fact that he was already asking himself a question, his sanity was going faster than he thought. Logan sighed as he finished the last of his exercise and lay down on the cool, black ground. Hopefully he would keep exercising even after he went insane. It was a good thing the darkness kept him full, but he still missed the taste of even some of his least favorite foods. Another plus was that the since the darkness kept nutrients going, the exercise he had been doing was begining to show. He could tell the his muscles were getting bigger, not by alot, but noticeably bigger. Logan snapped himself out of his train of thought, if he countined he might throw of his internal clock. He could continue his thoughts tomorrow. After all, he had eternity. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Celestia paced back and forth in the throne room, her brow furrowed in frustration and worry. She put her head up for a moment, and for a second her secretary had a glimmer of hope she had gotten over her troubles. This hope was quickly wiped away when Celestia put her head back down and continued pacing. "Come now Princess Celestia," her secretary scolded, "This worring isn't healthy." "For both me and my sister," Celestia said quietly. "Please princess, worry not about your sister. I have been in your place before." "Really?" "Yes, in fact it was just a month ago my sister lost her husband. He left peacefully in his sleep." paused and frowned at the floor, "Poor girl, she just stayed in their bedroom, staring at photographs of him. She kept herself holed up for two and a half weeks, but she came out smiling. All she kept saying was, 'he's in a better place now' but it was for the best." "Luna is different. Loosing such a good friend to her is hard, especially when she only has her personally guards as her two other good friends." The secretary sighed, "I know, everypony is different. This, however, has gone on far enough though. I think you should get Princess Luna a psychologist, or a therapist of some sort to help her." "It's bold of you to make a suggestion like that to me," Celestia said, "Why did you say it though?" "Because when one Princess is sad, the other is too. It's like your one pony with the same emotions in two differnt places. And when a Princess isn't happy, I'm not happy." "Thankyou for your concern, Miss Quill." Celestia said, "I think a therapist would do Luna some good." A week later Luna was rearranging a section of the night sky on he balcony when she heard a knock on her door. "It's open," Luna called. She quickly turned her head to see her sister, and then turned back to her work. "Are you feeling any better, Luna?" Celestia asked. Luna paused for a second then continued. "I don't want to talk about it. Okay?" Luna said in a monotone. Celestia paused for a second, "Luna, are you almost done with the stars?" "Just one more thing... done." Luna declared. "Good, you have somewhere to be." Celestia levitated a small piece of torn paper of to her sorrowful sister. Luna looked at it in puzzlement, "What is '106, Cornfield lane'?" "The place you need to be in an hour," Celestia said, "You can go there and not say a word, or you can let the pony do his job and help you." She left before Luna could speak. Luna looked down at the writing again and mouthed the words as if they had a deeper meaning. She sighed and, instead of flying, she decided to walk. Hammer and Anvil followed her down the hall, but she waved her hoof to dismiss them for the night. She walked the rest of the journey with her head down in silence: only looking up to check street names. She stopped at fairly large building with many windows, all of which were completely dark with the exception of one on the second story that was dimly lit. "Must just be getting up," Luna said to herself. She walked through the front door which lead to a main lobby. there was red carpet, plants in the corners of the room and a large 'Y' shaped staircase. She walked up the stairs, that were also red carpet, and turned left down a hall with green carpet and black granite tiles at the edges. Doors were mostly glass with a wooden frame painted white. Each door had a set of white alminum blinds, easily retractable with a thin rope and could be folded closed by twisting a plastic rod. Besides the dimly lit hallway one other room was brightly lit. There was a plastic slip-in sign with black letters next to the door. Room 16 Doctor Peaceful Joy Luna Raised an eyebrow mildly suspicious of the name; never the less, she opened the door and quietly. She was now in a room with two lamps and a light on the opposite wall. There was a couch and and foreleg chair cornering a dark brown coffee table with an unlit candle in on top. The walls were brown with designs of diferent shades of light brown in verticle merging lines, and the carpet was a deep red. The first room lead to a small hall with one door at the end and another at the begining of the hall. A mare unicorn mare stepped out from the closer door; she had deep blue eyes, a very dark purple mane and tail straight with a curl at the end, and to top it off, a purple coat a little darker than Twilight's with an ancient equestrian symbol, meaning healthy mind, life, and future, for a cutie mark. "Hello," she said quietly with a smile, "My name is Peaceful Joy, but you may call me what you feel comfortable with." "I am Luna, but please leave Princess out. Besides I do not deserve to hold the title with my current state." "Nonsense, you are much better that you think. Please, come in." Joy motioned into the room she came out. Luna had to admit it was cozy, the carpet was down to a deep green but wall was the same; however, the room was dimly lit which made it feel very warm, like a second home. There were two light brown foreleg chairs next to eachother and a deep red felt couch with one large seat that was buttoned in a grid pattern. It was rounded, like tub that was missing one side, with two cotton circular pillows: both of which had a button in the center. The two foreleg chairs both of which were blocky in shape but rounded on the seat and foreleg rests. "Please, have a seat and relax." said Joy. Luna took up her offer and layed belly down on the couch, while her unicorn therapist seated herself oposite on the foreleg chair. "I just want to make it clear that I don't have any problems about him." Luna said. "About who?" Joy said confused, "I was told that your job may be stressing you out. Your sister sent me a picture of the stack of papers on your desk when she sent me the scroll." "I'm sorry," Luna apologized, "I just thought it was about something else." "Well a breakup isn't that bad when you realize what good came out of it." Joy replied, "And this stallion wasn't good enough for you. Good riddence." "Well it wasn't really a breakup, or a pony." Luna corrected her, "I lost him to the universe." Joy paused, a look of confusion rested on her face. "Oh," she said, now somewhat aware of what happened. "I'm so sorry." Peaceful Joy saw a lone tear rolling down Luna's cheek. "Oh I didn't mean to upset you." "You know what? I think I do need to talk about it." Luna said. The unicorn took out a pencil and paper, "Start from the begining." "It was about a month and a half ago. A strange thing crashed into the Everfree Forest, that strange thing was summoned here, to Canterlot, by my sister. It was attacked and defened itself and other ponys from the maws and claws of the timberwolves. I heard this and from there I thought of this thing as either a great and powerful creater, or a vicious repulsive beast. Latter, I was awoken from a ruckus downstairs. I was in a daze and didn't realize what I was looking at, and zoned out trying to remember what was going on. I remembered my sister said that the creature was dangerous, called a human, and that it was much different than a pony. I put those three things together and paniced. I charged my shot and fired. He went from in a dent to a deep hole in the wall. I regained my senses waiting for it to emerge, my magic ready. Out from the hole, the human came, and it looked so ridiculous." Luna began to giggle with tears starting to roll. "What?" Joy said confused. "Picture this, his skin was light and pale white in some places he was wearing a shirt that was like a 'T' and baggy jeans that had tears and holes. He was about 5' 5'', a few inches shorter than me. His hair was brown with a small hint of blond and it was about an inch or so long, all messy, and stuck up in the back a little. Best of all, he had the most stupid look on his face; he went from shocked to supprised and other odd faces." Luan snickered, "I kept my laugher in until he started making jokes about my sister." "So, you liked him?" "Oh, very much!" Luna giggled. "So what happened to him?" Joy finally asked, "How did he go?" "Well, because he took down the changeling queen, I did soften her defenses, Pinkie Pie decided to throw him a party." "Please tell me he got to enjoy his own party." Luna shook her head, "Sadly the remaining changelings used him to bring back an old enemy. Ironically, this Leo that came back, was nothing like Logan. It's like they were complete opposites. While Logan was mildly quiet and goofy looking, Leo was much more strong and loud. He had black, long flowing hair, with great muscle tone. He really looked serious, he had brown eyes and determination was in them. After an the excruciatingly painful process of using Logan to bring back Leo, they swirled Logan up into a magic tornado and ripped him into oblivion." "I'm so sorry," Joy said. "I'm sure he's happier now," Luna said. "But I still am having trouble getting over the loss." "Well, it's clear that after so long with out loosing a friend. This has the same weight of looing the first friend. Luna, have you ever heard the phrase 'With old friends comes new friends'?" Luna shook her head, "What it means is that when old friends go you make new ones." "I don't think that will work since I can't really make many friends." "Your sister says you always have had two with you at all times. Two in armor." Joy hinted. "Oh how could I forget my two ruffians?!" Luna smiled excitedly. "You were fine before Logan was here and you can still be happy even after he's left." "Yes... you're right. Thankyou Miss Joy. Now, there is still the problem of his belongings." "What's the problem?" Joy asked, confused. "Well old things tend to give me some nostalgia." Luna said, "And his belongings could be considered precious artifacts, so I can't throw them away." "Why don't you just look through them and then just put it away, this, also, will help you move on." "That sounds... okay." Luna said unsurely. "Don't worry you'll be fine. It may seemed flawwed, but trust me it works." "I'll come back to you for some help if it doesn't," Luna said standing up. She shook Peaceful Joy's hoof and walk out. As she was heading home she noticed a few stars out of place. Luna felt the peace of the night come to her, and cut out the sad memory of Logan and bring it to those stars. She moved them into place to fit with the night sky: each seemed to protest the change. But, Luna looked at her work and thought the sky looked beautiful and better than before, and any other pony up that night would agree. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "My lord, we have found it." "So, what's the problem? Why tell me? Just do it!" "Well the passage is blocked by a rock and..." "Where are we now?" "The gem fields, my lord." "Dig under it you fools. Make a tunnel. In fact, connect it with the main." "Yes, my lord." "Once that water is secured, nothing with be able to stop me. Not the Purple one, not the blue one, not even Celestia." Author's Note There is a Romeo and Juliet Refference somewhere in there. Find it put it with the quote from the book. If you dare! Luna's rageFor Luna it was a regular night, raise the moon, look through court duties, then have some free time. Luna had decided to play Battlepony 3, she always did it seemed. Going around the maps, getting into jets, then crashing them into some building on purpose. "Is there any time that a princess can have to herself?" she ask to the guards that were on the sides of the door. The guards didn't answer as always. Most ponies were in bed at night and almost always outside in the day except for the few who stayed up late or preferred to sleep in the day. Luna sighed, the princess of the night didn't have as many admirers as Tia. the only friends she really had were her personal guards and the Elements of Harmony. She sighed again. 'Isn't there anypony that regular to be my friend,' Luna thought to herself' or somepony that understands my slight rejection' sadly she couldn't think of any. She groaned in frustration and shifted on the pillow she was laying on trying to find a more comfortable spot. She could try using the internet cheering up at the thought. Then again there could be some creeps out there stalking her. Luna then remembered that no pony really liked her. Luna groaned again, with each unhappy thought she had the less comfortable her pillow felt. Luna let out big long sigh and let her face fall into her pillow. She heard a knock on her door. "What?" she said, her voice muffled a little by the pillow. She heard the door open then light hoofsteps. It was Celestia she knew it. Using her magic she tossed a pillow in the direction of the hoofsteps, hearing it hit its mark square in Celestia's face. Luna knew what was coming next, with her face still in the pillow she put her front hooves up in the air and caught the pillow. "First of all, you need to work on your aim," Luna said, "Second, you need to work on your stealth. Now what do you want sister?" Luna lifted her head to see an annoyed scowl on Celestia's face. "I want to know what your so upset about," Celestia said, "Your moaning and groaning really loud and it's keeping me up, so what's the problem?" "Nothing is wrong," snapped Luna, "And I wasn't groaning." Celestia gave her a questioning look. "Okay I was groaning," correcting herself, "But was it really that loud?" she looked at the guards who immediately started nodding rapidly. Luna looked at Celestia who had a victorious smile on her face "Uhg! So what!" Luna snapped "If I don't help you, you keep groaning," said Celestia, "You keep groaning, I don't fall asleep. I don't get any sleep I get cranky." Luna could see her sister's reasoning, neither of them would want the other tired and cranky. "So what's up?" Celestia asked again, then she smile mischievously and added, "Don't know how to tell a certain stallion how you feel?" Luna went red in the face and before she could speak Celestia added, "Or is it a mare." "Oh you are SO dead!" Luna shouted lunging at Celestia. At this point Celestia couldn't help herself, she stuck out her tongue and crossed her eyes then laughed. This was too much for the guards to handle and they began to laugh. It took a few minutes before Luna finally pined Celestia. "Alright, alright," Celestia said barely able to breathe from her laughing, "You got me." Luna got off Celestia and there was a long pause while they lowered their breathing to normal. "Now," Celestia started, "What's up?" "No pony likes me the way they like you," Luna said sadly "Of course they do." Celestia said. "Name one besides Twilight and her friends!" Luna challenged. Celestia was about to speak but then close her mouth. Celestia thought making a pained face every time she eliminated a pony. Finally she look at Luna with a face that told her she ran out of ponies. "See!" Luna exclaimed, "They love you and they... ignore me!" "We like you," the guards said "There," Celestia said, "Not one, but two ponies." Celestia trotted to the door. "But they're my-," too late Celestia close the door as she left the room, "Guards." "Guards?" said one of them, "I thought you said we were your friends." "Oh, you are" Luna said as she put on a puppy face and gave them each a hug. "We have lost the objective." the TV said. looking over to the TV Luna saw the match was in her favorite map Operation Firestorm. Both guards new she never died on Operation Firestorm not once and both of them had a big smile as Luna started to tear through anyone in her way. Luna decided to run along a highway road, no pony ever used it. "I am going to-" Luna's sentence was cut short when a bullet hit her character right in the face. The guards couldn't believe what they just saw Luna had her first death on Operation Firestorm. She never had been killed in all the hundreds of matches on Operation Firestorm. All three look to see the killer 'hotthorns (870MCS) NightRuler1000'. "From where?!" Luna shouted. All the way across the map on a mountain with a flash suppressor, x6 rifle scope, and slugs. "Lucky!" Luna got back in the game and had to wait a while before getting into a jeep. got to the base of the mountain she assumed hotthorns was on. as her jeep was bouncing up and down going up the hill she was killed again. 'hotthorns (870MCS) NightRuler1000' "Again!"Luna shouted, this time he was across the map near her base shooting out the side of a support helicopter. "Nooooooo!" Luna respawned in her base, the enemy can't go in her base for more than 10 seconds she smiled. She headed towards the jets and was close but just before she could get in 'hotthorns (ACB-90) NightRuler1000' she got knifed and hotthorns jumped into her jet and took off. She once again respawned this time on a point away from the base she was safe until an enemy with a stolen jet rammed straight into her and the ground 'hotthorns (Su-35BM Flanker-E) NightRuler1000' "Oh buck no!" Luna breathed. Luna continued to struggle not once killing hotthorns each kill made her angrier at one point she almost had him but he shot her with an M1911. Each time she got killed she shouted 500% tickets gave a lot of time. Celestia stormed in "Turn down your game and voice for the love of-" Celestia stopped and looked at the scoreboard and saw Luna had almost 127 kills of course it was her best map, she never died on it, not once but then she looked at Luna's deaths. She swore she felt her jaw hit the floor and go through it, Luna the number one best Battlepony 3 player in all of Equestria had 78 deaths. "B-b-but who..." Celestia stuttered, "and how?!" "All of my deaths have been from-" *pew* Luna died again, "him" 'hotthorns (870MCS) NightRuler1000' Celestia looked at the dog tags, on the left was an M1911 on the right was an 870MCS. "How is he so good?" Celestia asked, "That must be his best weapon how many kills has he got with the 870MCS?" "I don't know." Luna said, "But I used magic to scan him he isn't using hacks" *pew* both sisters looked at the right dog tag '870MCS kills 2059'. The sisters knew what must be done, both used their magic to use a spell that makes a pony so lucky nothing can stop them. The sisters cast the spell and an evil smile on each face appeared Luna shot no scope the whole way to where she was last killed from each time killing somepony but not hotthorns. She finally got to where hotthorns had killed her from and saw him. Luna picked up a USAS-12 buckshot extended mag and full mag. she fired at close range as hotthorns ran from cover to cover until she was out of ammo. she was taking out her pistol and then... 'hotthorns (DEFIBRILLATOR) NightRuler1000' "WHAT!" they both shouted. The unstoppable spell had just been stopped. hotthorns was jumping up and down this made Luna's anger boil over. Sparks of lightning were charging on her horn. When Celestia saw this she knew something bad was going to happen, "GET OUT NOW!" she screamed. the guards and Celestia got out of the room and as far as possible. Luna was looking at hotthorns through the death cam "THINK YOUR SO GOOD HUH?!" she screamed, "WELL HOW DO YOU LIKE THIS!" using all she had, she shot a bolt of lightning at the TV. It took one second fully drain her, she looked up the TV was somehow still working but she got her anger out. Luna smiled, the fainted. From bad to worseAs he started to regain consciousness, Logan could hear birds chirping, bugs buzzing, and the sound of sparking electricity. He couldn't see yet so he felt a little insecure, something could sneak up on him and he might not even realize it. As Logan stopped worrying about things he couldn't see, he noticed a tingling feeling throughout his body, 'My limbs must have fallen asleep,' Logan thought to himself. He couldn't feel what he was laying on but he assumed it was his bed, that would make sense, he got tired and went to bed with his clothes on, yeah. He had done that before, but that still didn't explain the sound of sparking electricity. Logan still couldn't see, or could he just not open his eyes? He moved away from the question and towards what happened last night. He couldn't really remember sadly. Logan started cheering up when he started to regain his vision, it was taking a while for his eyes to adjust to the light. "Muhhh too bright," he whined. His vision finally fully adjusted so he could see where he was, he could only see the sky and the tops of a few trees. 'A forest?' Logan thought to himself, 'Why am I in a forest? And what the hell happened last night' Then it all started coming back to him. He remembered playing Battlefield 3... and... owning someone called... called... Night something... NightRuler... it had a number after it, 10? no, 100? no no no it was 1000. NightRuler1000, Logan remembered running into her all game long and owning her. 'But why am I in a forest?' Logan asked himself. Then he remembered one time after NightRuler1000 somehow managed to miss every single USAS-12 shot, he ran up to her and killed her with the defibrillator. After that, the TV started sparking then shot out electricity. It picked him up off the ground and made his body collapse in on itself as he was sucked into the TV. But how does sucked into a TV equal land in forest. He finally sat up and looked around he was in a deep hole. Then something more terrifying, he wasn't in a hole he was in a very deep crater, and a fresh one by the looks of it. the crater was at least a quarter mile in diameter and small fires were still burning in some spots and he was in the center of it. At this point Logan couldn't stay up longer, he fell forward onto his stomach with his head to the right he saw his backpack was burned but not too badly, the contents inside were visible and still intact. Going back to his previous thoughts, he looked around his peripheral vision and noticed something different about himself and his environment, it looked like he was in a cartoon. 'But why-' Logan's thought was cut off from the sound of two girls chatting. "I'm telling you, I saw something fall out of the sky!" one said in a load tone. "Oh, uh so did I but, that doesn't mean that it couldn't have been a dream." the other said in a quiet tone. Logan tried to pull himself up he got a little of the ground on his hands and knees only to slump back down with a "Uhg!" "What was that?" the loud one asked. Then Logan heard someone give a little shriek of fright "EEP!" "Hey!" the loud one shouted, "We found something!" A frightening thought popped into Logan mind 'What if I'm dead and I'm in Heaven, or Hell!' As the three girls got closer he could hear the sound of hoofsteps. 'Must be riding horses' Logan thought unable to muster any energy to look at them. "What is it." one the loud one said. "I'm not sure," a different voice sounding intelligent said, "But it must be a new species, think of the scientific quality! I must report this to Princess Celestia!" "But first we need to help it," the shy one said, "Look at it, it's all cut up and bleeding." She was right Logan now noticed how many wounds he could feel and they were massive some even on his face he ignored them again. Logan heard hoofsteps leading to his backpack then he could see a cyan colored hoof start to poke his backpack "What is this thing?" the loud rider of the cyan horse said. "Please, don't touch that," Logan said "AHH!" *BAM* the cyan horse bucked Logan in the back sending him skipping across the ground 15 feet before he slowed and ended on his back, looking to the left with his right arm over his stomach. "It's nice to meet you too," Logan said in a painful quiet voice, then coughed up some blood. Logan looked over to see three small horses, no a lavender unicorn and two pegasi one butter colored with a pink mane and tail, the other cyan colored with a rainbow mane and tail. "Rainbow Dash," the butter colored pegasus scolded, "You hurt him," the pagasus went over to Logan and started petting his face "There, there," she said, "It's okay." Logan coughed again with blood "Coughing up blood probably means I'm *cough* dying and I don't think dying is *cough* okay. Nor is talking horses" "We're ponies," said the butter colored pegasus, "I'm Fluttershy, that's Twilight Sparkle, and that's Rainbow Dash." "I'm Logan Adams," Logan said, "But you can just call me Logan" "Does he look familiar," Rainbow dash said as she walked next to Logan, "Like we saw him in a book" "Excuse me Logan," Twilight said, "But are you a human?" "Yeah," Logan replied the three ponies gasped then looked at each other the two nodded to Rainbow Dash who put up a front hoof to knock out Logan. Logan sighed in frustration as he knew what was going to happen next, "*sigh* it's nice to meet you too," with that Rainbow knocked out Logan. *** Logan woke up with his head throbbing, he opened his eyes and saw he was on a couch, he looked around his peripheral vision not daring to move. Judging by the reaction of the ponies that knocked him out earlier, he was some threat to them and they would do it again if he woke up. He was in a library based on all the books in the room and it was obvious that there were ponies watching him. Logan listened trying to figure out how many ponies there were. It was obvious the first three that found him were watching. He heard them whispering three of them he could identify as the ones who had found him. There were three new voices now: one sounded like it was a proper upper class voice, a second one sounded like a southern accent, the third was an excited pony, 'Maybe it has ADHD like me,' Logan thought. So there were at least six of them, they sounded like they were behind a table with numerous books on it. Logan could see out of the bottom of his eyes that there was something around him. A purple colored aurora was around his legs and arms. Logan guessed it was some magic to restrain him, if talking ponies were real then magic was probably real too. If he moved he might alert the ponies he was awake. Magic could be an extension of the pony nervous system. 'I need to make them think that they're not really in control' Logan thought, 'I'll surprise them by calling them out from their hiding spot then i can reason with them to let me go. They're probably taking trash about me so I'll take a guess and call them out for that.' "You know I don't really like others talking badly about me," Logan said, "Especially if it's behind my back. Now if you six would stop hiding behind that table, I would appreciate that." Sure enough there were now six ponies and they came out from behind the table. "Twilight," an orange pony said, "I thought I told ya to tell us when he woke up." "Sorry Applejack," Twilight said, "I didn't feel him move." "And how did he know how many of us there were, and where we were hiding, and what we were talking about" a pink pony said, "Not even my pinkie sense could pick that up." "First of all," Logan said, "I recognized three voices the ones who found me would probably hang around. I heard three more unfamiliar voices telling me that all together there was six of you. It took me awhile but from your whispering i determined you were behind that table. Based on the reaction and response I got from confirming to Twilight, Rainbow, and Fluttershy I guessed you were talking mean things about me." "But how did I not sense you," Twilight asked. "It was an inference Miss. Sparkle," Logan admitted, "I have never seen or heard a talking pony, so the purple aurora must be some sort of magic. I inferred that ponies using magic to pick up objects must be able to feel them so they don't drop them, with that magic must be an extension of the nervous system. Any more Questions?" The mare stood there dumbfounded at Logan's obvious but complicated logic. Logan waited a few minutes before he finally spoke. "So, mind if I ask you a few questions?" Logan asked. the mare just shook her head, "So Who are your friends over here?" Logan asked gesturing towards the three unfamiliar ponies. Twilight spoke, "This is Applejack, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie." The Pink mare galloped over to Logan and held out a hoof. "Heh, I'd shake your hand, or hoof, but I'm a little tied up at the moment." Logan said jokingly gesturing towards the magical restraints. "Oh right," Pinkie laughed, "Twilight would you please let go of him for a sec" "But Pinkie," Twilight protested, "Humans are dangerous what if he attacks you!" "He won't I promise," Pinkie said, "Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake-" "In my eye," Logan finished, "I've heard a similar promise." When Pinkie made a Pinkie promise she kept it. "Okay," Twilight said nervously. Pinkie pie put on a rubber glove Logan decided not to question it. Twilight released Logan from the aurora and he shook Pinkie's hoof before returning his arm to his side. Twilight was again stunned as she was wrong. She forgot to restrain Logan again. "Uh Twilight," Logan said, "You forgot to uh... you know." Logan gestured to where the restraints should have been. "Oh right," Twilight said returning the magic restraints. "Twilight," said Applejack, "I don't think ya need to restrain 'im" "Of course I do," Twilight replied, "The book said humans are extremely dangerous" "But he told ya to put em on" Applejack pointed out. "Yeah, but he probably did it for something evil," Twilight snapped Logan spoke, "I did it to make you feel safe and secure. If the request or desire is reasonable enough, I will accept. It seems you fear for your life, that's a good enough reason for me." "Let him go Twilight!" Fluttershy said in a commanding voice. Fluttershy never spoke like that unless she was sure about something. "Let him go," everyone except Logan and Twilight were saying. "OKAY!" Twilight shouted, "I'll let him go!" Twilight looked at Logan then to her friends. She gave a worried sigh and released Logan... but Logan didn't move. "Uh Logan" Fluttershy started "Yeah?" Logan said "You do know that you're not restrained any more, right?" "I know" "Then why aren't you getting up?" Fluttershy asked. "I'm no doctor," Logan said, "But with the pain I felt in the crater, I'm guessing my injuries were very severe weren't they?" Logan looked at Fluttershy. "Yes," Fluttershy confirmed, "You had seven broken ribs the rest were shattered in many places, your right wrist was broken, your left upper and lower arm were broken, left ankle and upper leg were broken, you had a fractured skull and a punctured lung." "It's amazing I'm still alive! When was this diagnosis?" Logan asked. "Right away," Fluttershy said, "I knew this when I saw you, I take care of animals." "See," Logan said, "With those injuries, it's obvious that I should stay in bed, or couch, or floor until I'm fully healed, with out Fluttershy I would be dead. She saved my life." "Actually, I didn't even help you, I couldn't," Fluttershy said, "If anypony touched you, they got shocked." Logan looked down at his hands to see sparks of electricity emanating in his hands "Well that explains why Pinkie wore a rubber glove," Logan joked, "But who do I thank for saving my life?" Fluttershy paused and thought then said "Yourself, or the electricity I guess." "What do you mean?" Logan asked "Right before Rainbow Dash knocked you out, electricity started jumping all over your body." Fluttershy said, "but the electricity around your wounds made them heal rapidly. You're fully healed now." "How long did it take?" Logan ask, the other ponies now staring at Fluttershy for she was the only one who noticed. "A little less than an hour." Fluttershy said. "WHAT!" Rainbow screamed, "How come he recovers from, basically, death in an hour but it takes me days for my wing to heal?" "I don't know," Fluttershy admitted. "Maybe I'll run out of electric soon," Logan said. As if on cue, the electric on his hands dissipated. "Ooh, maybe the static charge is gone," Pinkie said who rushed forward and shook Logan's hand as hard as she could. Receiving no shock Pinkie shouted "All gone!"" and tackled Logan. Logan started tickling Pinkie "Ah ha ha! Oh no! Okay, you win!" Logan stopped. "Sorry to intrude on your fun but we've got a trian to catch," Twilight said, "Logan your coming with, the princesses want to see you." Logan stood up, now realizing how tall he was. The ponies were a little over 3/4 Logan's height. He wasn't even close to Princess Celestia's height, but he just a few inches shorter than Princess Luna. Logan and the six ponies walked to the door. "Wait," Logan said. "You know that thing I told Rainbow not to touch." "You mean that blue think with your name on it?" Rainbow asked. "Yeah," Logan said, "When you brought me here did you bring it with?" Rainbow Dash didn't reply, instead she shot off into the sky only to return with Logan's backpack moments later. "It was at my house," Rainbow said, "I thought it looked cool. You're not mad are you? "I'm not mad," Logan said, "Just please ask me if I'm conscious." Logan looked at his backpack, there were multiple holes that were burned from whatever happened. Luckily everything inside was untouched. "Looks like I'm going to need a new backpack soon." Logan chuckled. They headed off towards the train station. On the way there, ponies kept looking at Logan with ranging expressions. Some looked in disgust, others looked in awe, Then he saw three little fillies hiding in the bushes, Logan stopped. "Are they afraid of me too?" Logan asked squatting down in front of them. Applejack looked to where the fillies were hiding. "They're curious," Applejack said, "That's Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. They call themselves the-" "CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!" the three chanted. They jumped onto Logan knocking him over from his squatting position then started tickling him. "NO HAHA STOP!" Logan screamed, "NO NO! WHAT'S WITH TODAY AND TICKLING?! HAHAHAHAHA!" finally they stopped. "We stop the monster sis," Applebloom said. "I'm not a monster," Logan panted, "And shouldn't you three be in bed? It's dark out." "He's right girls y'all should be headin' off ta bed," Applejack agreed. "We don't wanna," Applebloom said. "But if you don't then how are you going to get your cutie marks tomorrow?" Logan asked, "you'll fall asleep in the middle of the day." The three gasped at this. "He right if we stay up tonight we might not have anything left to get our cutie marks tomorrow," Scootaloo said, "Let's sleep in the tree house." The three ran off and said, "goodnight!" Logan turned around with a satisfied smile only to see the six ponies with their jaws dropped. Logan started walking and they got ahead to lead the way. "How did you do that!" Fluttershy asked, "I thought only I could do that." "It's easy," Logan said, "You show them how their choice today could endanger their fun tomorrow." Finally they arrived at the train station and got on the train. Some royal guards on the train saw Logan and readied their spears, but Twilight explained that he wasn't dangerous and was with her. They made their way to the very back of the train as it began moving. "Get comfortable," Twilight said, "It's going to be a six hour train ride. It looks like Luna decided to raised to moon early tonight, we should arrive by midnight. We each get our own room, except for you." Twilight pointed at Logan. "This is the only first class car, the rest have regular seats. The back of the car is where the six rooms are. In the back of that car is the viewing car where you will sleep." Logan decided to sit on the floor since there were no seats. The mares were talking for ten minutes until Fluttershy looked out the window. "Um, excuse me," Fluttershy said, "We have a problem. Timberwolves are jumping on the train." A timberwolf howled in response. "Are timberwolves bad?" Logan asked. A timberwolf smashed through the window and swung a claw at Flutter shy who ducked just in time. "I'll take that as a yes." Logan ran forward and used his shoulder to push the timberwolf back to the window. He pushed the timberwolf far enough out that it balanced its back half out the window. Logan took his hands away just in time to see the top half of the timberwolf ripped of by a metal beam spilling green timberwolf blood out the window. "Where are the guards?" Logan asked. The only two guards on the train burst through the door fighting two timberwolves. One of the guards was able to kill one of the timberwolves, the other timberwolf took a long swing and knock both guards over and on of them unconscious. Now with out a spear the conscious guard was defenseless, he closed his eyes. The timberwolf raised his claw, ready to avenge his fellow timberwolf. Then he heard a yelp of pain. The guard opened his eyes to see Logan with his fellow guards spear through the timberwolf's stomach. "Not today you ugly hunk of wood," Logan grunted as he pushed the squirming timberwolf to the open door leading to the coupling. Logan finally got the timberwolf on the edge of falling off. "Sorry I can't stay and chat," Logan said, putting his foot on the timberwolf's chest "But we have a serious infestation to get rid of." Logan put weight on his foot and pushed the timberwolf off the spear. and went back in. Then stopped, he didn't hear a crunching sound. Logan went back to the coupling to see the timberwolf belly up just barely holding onto the sides of the cars. "Get lost, you stupid hitch hiker!" Logan shouted, and he whacked the timberwolf on the nose with the butt of the spear. The timberwolf clutched his nose in pain, then realized he had let go of the train. Logan jumped back, barely dodging the blood splatter that came up from the wheels. Logan turned to the guard who just stared at him not sure if he could trust the human or not. "You stay here and protect them." Logan said pointing at the guard. "But-" the guard started. "Look," Logan said, "You're small to them. I'm close to their height. Plus you don't look like you're determined to fight. Besides, you got any better ideas?" The guard shook his head. "Exactly, now protect them." Logan ran into the next car to see a timberwolf trying to find a pony to eat, that were all hiding under their seats. "Hey dog," Logan said, holding up his spear, "Fetch the stick." The timberwolf ran at him and leaped up. Logan held up the spear ready to block the incoming attack. The timberwolf swiped his claw down and knocked off the spear head. Logan looked at the headless spear then at the timberwolf and smiled nervously. The timberwolf roared and swung his claws at Logan who backed up until he was at the edge of the car. Out of options Logan took the headless spear and whacked the timberwolf on the head breaking off a tenth of the spear. The timberwolf went cross eyed, Logan hit him on the head again and again slowly reducing the spear until all he had was the butt of the spear. Logan slipped off his shoe and hit the timberwolf one last time on the head with it killing it from all the head trauma. Logan now needed a new weapon. Timberwolves were made of wood so and axe or hatchet might be good. "Are there any lumberjack ponies that have an axe or hatchet on them that I could use?" Logan asked. "I do," a pony said, "But why should I give them to you. "Either you give me a weapon," Logan said, kneeling down to seem less intimidating, "Or I go in there trying to save your friends with my bare hands." The pony considered this then said, "Okay" then handed Logan a bag, "Inside is an axe and two hatchets." "Great," Logan said, clipping the hatchets in their holsters to his side belt loops then picking up the axe, "Let's cut some wood." Logan walked to the next car and found three timberwolves who didn't notice him. One nearest to him was about to take a bite out of a pony. Logan tapped him on the shoulder, the timberwolf turned around and saw the axe too late. Logan hit him square in the side of the face ripping most of his head off. The other two timberwolves looked at him and charged. The first one Logan dodged to his left using his left hand to bring the axe down on the timberwolf while his right hand unclipped the hatchet on his left side from its holster. Dodging the second one to his right, he took the hatchet out of its holster and swung it underhand into the timberwolf's throat. Logan rushed over and removed the axe from the timberwolf's back and the hatchet from the others neck which spurted blood into his face. "Uhg, yuck, nasty!" Logan shouted in disgust. After Logan wiped some of the green blood off his face, he saw a pony with a claw wound. "Nothing hurts innocent ponies!" he yelled. Logan ran into the last car before the engine. There were five timberwolves. Logan gave a mighty yell and swung his axe down on the first timberwolf's head, splitting it in two. He let go of the axe still lodged in the dead timberwolf, and brought out a hatchet in each hand. He ran at a second timberwolf and lodged the hatchet in his right hand in the timberwolf's chest. The timberwolf wasn't dead though and clawed Logan two times before Logan pulled out the hatchet and hit the timberwolf in the same spot killing it. Logan pulled out the hatchet once again and spotted the third timberwolf and noticed it had a thin spot in in its upper arm. The third timberwolf hadn't reacted yet, Logan saw his opportunity and seized it. Logan threw the hatchet and hit the timberwolf right in the weak spot breaking of the timberwolf's arm. The timberwolf clutched the nub of where his arm used to be and stumble backwards out the door and fell off sucked under the train with a crunch, splat. "Hey look at that," Logan said, "He finished himself off, so I didn't have to." The fourth timberwolf lunged at Logan. Logan backed up a little and let the timberwolf land. Before it could lunge again, Logan swung the hatchet and hit it in the head hard enough to hit and go through it. Logan lost his grip on the hatchet after it went thorough and it stuck to the wall just above a hiding pony. Logan flinched "Ooh sorry!" The mare gave a small smile as a way of saying apology accepted. Logan removed his axe from the first timberwolf he had killed and ducked to let the fifth timberwolf leap over him in a failed tackle. Logan swung the axe over his head and chopped through both legs. The timberwolf hit the gound and was bleeding fast enough that he would be dead in a minute. "It's seems you have lost your legs," Logan said, "You probably know that already." Logan's taunting was interrupted by a scream from the engine. He grabbed the axe and hatchets then ran to the next door and looked at the coal car. There was supposed to be a ladder, and there was... well part of it was gone. It was a little off to the right side and only the top bar was remaining. It was so high it would be impossible. "Aw god dammit!" Logan cursed. Logan knew he only had one shot at it. He jumped... and got it. He was pulling himself up when a beam the train was passing under almost took his head off. Logan pulled himself up the rest of the way and slid down the hill of coal. 'That would have been a fail,' Logan thought to himself, 'take the life threatening jump and make it only to be killed by a beam.' Logan got to the engine to see a timberwolf bigger and buffer than the others he killed. It was chasing the engineer around the engine and kept missing. 'Well that explains why the train didn't stop,' Logan thought to himself. He had to find someway to weaken its strategy if it even had a strategy, make it mad. "Come here you stupid pony!" It growled. "Oh good it can talk," Logan said. "Of course I can," it said, "I'm the top alpha." "Good," Logan said, "Then you'll understand this, you"re going to be easier to kill than you stupid friends." The timberwolf launched a Logan who got out of the way just in time. 'This timberwolf is fast,' Logan thought, dodging another attack then slamming the hatchet in the timberwolf's back, 'and his wood is thick everywhere except for his head' "You think you can kill me with those?" the timberwolf mocked, gesturing to the axe and hatchets. "Ehhh... probably," Logan said 'His wood is thick,' Logan thought, 'I'm going to have to shave it down since I can't get a clear hit on his head' Logan ran at the timberwolf blocking an attack with the handle of the axe then swung under and took out a chunck of the wood. He backed up and noticed the timberwolf clutching the spot Logan hit. It took its claws away for a moment to look at it, just enough time for Logan to throw a hatchet into the wound. The timberwolf tossed the hatchet away to reveal that he was bleeding. The timber wolf launched at him again this time knocking him on his back. It reached down to grab Logan, but Logan grabbed the hatchet the timberwolf tossed aside and hit it in the left claw. The timberwolf leaned back exposing its chest. Logan quickly got up and took another hard swing at its stomach. The blow was hard enough to make another bleeding wound and knock the timberwolf on his back. Logan saw his big opportunity and using his strength and momentum he swung down on the timberwolf's chest. One hit, bleeding, two hits, a bleeding wound again, Logan gave the third hit which was bleeding more than the others. The timberwolf struggled, trying to get up until it lay still. "I... think... it's... dead..." Logan panted. He walk back up the hill of coal to see a mare repair the ladder. "Better late then never" Logan climbed down the ladder and made his way to the third car. "Hear is your axe and hatchets," Logan said to the lumberjack pony, "Let me just clean them off and-" Logan stopped to see the pony was staring towards the door he just came from. Logan looked over to see the timberwolf and all the ponies from the first two cars behind curious to see what was going to happen. "How many times do I have to kill the same sinking timberwolf?!" Logan shouted. The timberwolf lunged but Logan got dodged it, bringing the axe down on the timberwolf's back. The timberwolf stumbled into the last car. The guard started toward the timberwolf but stopped when he saw Logan deliver a crushing blow to the chest followed by a whack to the stomach, side, then another blow to the chest. The timberwolf stumbled back onto the round porch like viewing spot on the very back of the train. The timberwolf looked at Logan but didn't move. All that ponies, except for the engineer, were watching the timberwolf and Logan. "I done fighting you," Logan said standing about 35 feet from the timberwolf, "Lights out, bitch." Logan held the axe by the bottom in his right hand and threw it. *Thunk* the axe had split most of the timberwolf's head in two, but the timberwolf was still standing. Logan walked to the timberwolf, removed the axe, then pushed the timberwolf off the back with his right foot. The timberwolf hit the tracks and was torn limb from limb. Logan turned around and found all the passengers were staring at him in aw. He walked over to the lumberjack pony and cleaned the blood of the axe and hatchets with his shirt, then gave them back to the lumberjack pony. Logan looked at himself, his shirt and pants were soaked with timberwolf blood and his own. His shirt and pants now had even more holes in them, some of the holes burned from his entry into this world, and now some from timberwolves. Logan walked to the back ledge to where he pushed the timberwolf off, then he looked at all the ponies still watching him. Logan sat down leaning his back on the bars of the railing and spoke. "Boom, head shot." Logan said and fell asleep from exhaustion. Every Decision has a Consequence, Even if it is the Right DecisionThe six ponies watched as Logan ran out the room with the sound of firing magic trailing after him. Twilight took one step to go after him but was stopped by Applejack. "He's going to get himself killed." Twilight said. "Sometimes you gotta make sacrifices," Applejack said in a quiet tone, "And Logan isn't one of the Elements of Harmony." "If we solve the riddle quickly we might be able to help him before he gets killed." Rainbow Dash pointed out, "Twilight, do you have a spell that can replay the riddle?" Twilight nodded and her horn began to glow. A projection of Discord popped up on the floor and the riddle was said once again. Here and there and all throughout Magic played roles with out a doubt. But sides must be chosen in this world and through out history this still shows. To find your princess you must see both sides to see through the tinted vision of the one who knows. "Well that's nice," Pinkie Pie said, "The riddles large so it has a bunch of details. Now if we get it wrong we'll at least be close!" "I don't think that is how it works, Pinkie dear," Rarity pointed out. Twilight was hopping from hoof to hoof impatiently, "Can we please get started?!" The other mares nodded. "Now we need to start with a location. Some general area where we can start." "Well most things are too broad," Rainbow said, "Sides could be anywhere, but history is everywhere and so is magic!" "What about tint?" Fluttershy cut in. "Ah don't know," Applejack said, "But the princess is most likely trapped in something or an object. That means that we jus' need to find something that has everything in the riddle." "Good thinking Applejack," Twilight said, "Now can any pony think of something tinted?" "Ooooh, I know!" Pinkie burst, "A wine bottle!" "But that doesn't match the description well." Rainbow said, "A thing like that wouldn't help you remember the history of the night before and it makes you see funny." "What about a gem?!" Rarity said, "A gem enhances magic, and it's tinted." "But still no history," Twilight said. "I hate history!" Pinkie blurted out, "It get's repetitive." A light went on in Twilight's brain but she needed to be sure if it was right. "How is it repetitive?" Twilight asked. "Well hasn't Chrysalis attacked Canterlot before, and hasn't Discord given us a riddle before, hasn't a princess been trapped in an object before, haven't they all been evil when they returned, hasn't a human been to equestria before?" Pinkie's questions were answered by mumbles of yes, "See history repeats itself." "But it hasn't," Twilight said, "Chrysalis didn't go after Cadence like last time. So the Princess isn't in the historic gem mines, the only other place with written history is the library!" "Not true Twilight," Rarity stopped her, "The windows to the Elements detail history. "And they show us using the MAGIC of friendship!" Pinkie shouted. "And there also tinted windows for color," Fluttershy said. "But where does the, both sides of magic and the seein' through the eyes of the one who knows, fit in?" Applejack asked. "No clue which ponies know?" Pinkie asked to nopony in general. "Not ponies," Twilight said, "Pony, only one knows, Chrysalis. Which means a few things, the princess was either caught off gaurd and was imprisioned before she knew what was going on; or she lost some memory, possibly from head trauma." Pinkie for some reason began laughing. "Look, I found one withe Chrysalis on it, her eyes are a funny color." The puzzle was solved for Twilight, "I've got it! Discord didn't mean sides of magic, he meant sides on the window, we need magic to get Celestia out. History is talking about these windows telling the history. Tinted vision talked about how the windows are colored, and the only one who knows is Chrysalis. Look at where her eyes are pointing." Twilight made a line with her hoof from Chrysalis's eye to a window across the hall. The window across the hall showed Celestia raising the sun. Twilight fired an unlock spell but nothing happened. Then Raibow Dash cut in, "Maybe Celestia is stuck in a certain place and Chrysalis's eyes are looking straight at it?" Before Twilight could say anything more Rainbow Dash picked her up, flew her outside, and hovered just near the window. Twilight looked, and it was just as Rainbow Dash had thought. Looking inside through Chrysalis's eyes all Twilight could see was the tip of Celestia's horn on the window across. Twilight fired the unlock spell through Chrysalis's eyes and they formed a thin beam that made the two windows glow for a second then grow dim. Rainbow Dash took Twilight back inside both expecting to see a happy Celestia, but she was on the ground barely conscious only blood coming from her cut lip. Celestia felt terrible. She felt like no individual would ever experience this much pain. She wasn't used to even a little, she never got sick and was never really hurt in the rare attacks on Equestria. She slowly got to her hooves trying to remember what happened. Then she saw Twilight's hurt expression and knew something big happened. "Princess, do you remember anything?" Twilight asked hopeful she would say yes but was instead was met with a mumbled no. "That big meanie Chrysalis trapped you in here!" Pinkie said. A pain shot through Celestia's head as she began to remember. Chrysalis shot her in the back when she was going to do something important. "We need the elements to get Chrysalis out of here!" shouted Applejack. The elements! Celestia was on her way to get them so she could defeat something she knew about at the time, but who. "We also need to get Luna out of the moon," added Rarity. "How did Luna get in the moon?!" Celetia snapped. Fluttershy spoke, "When Chrysalis revealed herself, Luna decided to fight Chrysalis and she gave the job of attacking Chrysalis's changelings to the gaurds and Logan. "Who is Logan?" Celestia asked Twilight. "The human," Twilight replied. The human, she was going to get the elements to stop the human. "But did he help?" Celestia asked. "He was the reason we were able to find you." Twilight said, "Logan killed the last of the Changelings then distracted Chrysalis long enough for us to find you." At this Celestia was shocked. A human, helping with something so big. "Well let's go get Chrysalis, I can turn her to stone and send her out." Celestia said. She took one step and wobbled, "I'll need your help to get places." So the six ponies gathered around her moving slowly trying their best to keep her up. Inside Celestia's head choices were being made. On one hoof, last time a human came to Equetria he betrayed ponies and attacked them, giveing her the just means to turn the human to stone. On the other hoof, if it wasn't for the human, she would have never been freeed from her prison. The risk was too high she would have to turn the human to stone then release him in a cell to keep him from possibly harming other ponies. She slowly stumbled around the castle, first she saw a trail of blood, it didn't have the quality of a ponies so they knew it was human blood. They followed the blood to Luna's door. Celestia's heart was pounding; a human could be behind the door, dead. As they opened the door Celestia took in the room, it was a mess. The sheets stank of blood and the trail lead to the balcony. Celestia shuddered to think of the mess the human would make if he fell off the city from this high up. The PS3 was on, the bathroom was all wet, and little pieces of torn fabric could be seen in a few places. "Logan isn't here," Twilight said, "Let's keep moving." They walked down the hall to Celestia's room and looked inside. Celestia didn't see anything out of place except something was missing, "Where's my diary?" Celestia said aloud. The six mares gave Celestia a look of disbelief, "What? You can't remember all your life in your head," They made their to many other rooms but none seemed different. Then they got to the library. When Twilight saw it she raced over hopping from hoof to hoof. "Nonononononono" Twilight quickly said, "All these books destroyed." "Calm down Twilight," Celestia said, "All the books here can be replaced." "Ummm Ah don't mean to butt in," Applejack said, "But there's blood, and a hole in the wall." The seven looked at the bookcase Logan had fallen on then saw the hole. "I know where that lands!" Celestia shouted, and she raced off down the nearest stairs with the six ponies following behind. Celestia went as fast as she could down the hallways and stairs. She sometimes jumped the stairs gliding down with her wings the rest of the way. She finally got to the main doors and opened them. Celestia was shocked at what she saw. Chrysalis was limping up the stairs paying no attention to her, but what shocked Celestia the most was seeing the human. Celestia had thought she would be dealing with and adult, the human was just a teenager. "Logan!" The six mares shouted, but Logan didn't hear them; he was focused on Chrysalis. "Look he's hurt!" Applejack yelled. Celestia looked for the injuries and was stunned to how bad he was hurt. Logan was soaking wet, and his clothes were stained with his blood. Then Celestia saw his stomach and almost lost control of hers. A large hole went through Logan and organs were visible. Celestia felt her jaw drop as she saw Logan attack Chrysalis without hesitation. Logan was hit a few times then he delivered a blow to Chrysalis's face with his knee. After punching her more he kicked her forelegs breaking them. Chrysalis stood on her hind legs, Logan grabbed her and punched her again and again in the stomach for minutes. Celestia knew he was going to die at this rate. She had to turn him to stone to keep him alive, then set up medical equipment and other things needed to heal him when she released him. So she cast the spell to turn him to stone, but since she was still weak from Chrysalis it was taking longer. Celestia saw Logan look down at his feet aware that he was being turned to stone, then back at Chrysalis. He put his arms out to his side. Celestia didn't expect what happened next. From Logan's arms sprang electricity sharpend, his entire arm was coated in electricity and then went out from his hands one and three quater feet. Chrysalis stumbled towards him and just as she was about to fall on him he thrust both arms at her. The electricity cut through her like a knife through melted butter. Logan pulled out and stabbed again alternating arms three times. Then he stabbed her one last time with his right arm into her left torso. His arm stayed in her torso for a few seconds before the electric from his arms vanished and he pulled his arm out of Chrysalis's torso, in his hand was her heart. Logan was going to make sure she was completely dead and more. With that he crushed the heart till the remaining blood splattered all over him. Logan fell onto his back. Looking down he saw the stone was just about to get to his knees, so he tried to move but his limbs told him that they wouldn't be able to move anymore today. His arms were out his left leg made and angle to his straight right leg. Logan's head fell towards the six ponies all worried, but he instead smiled in victory. Celestia walked over to him and spoke, "I'm going to have to turn you to stone to buy us time to set up for medical treatment. I will release you then." Logan was too exhausted to argue, so he let the stone cover him. After that he dozed off with his eyes, ironically, still open.
Sucked InLogan Adams was a seemingly regular kid, well not really in behavior but he was in interests. Logan was a skinny kid but no one bothered to bully him he was too fast to catch. He was a good student in high school and got mostly A's. Logan had a personality like no other he was always willing to help anybody, most of the time to help his friends he would listen to them and agree out loud even if he really disagreed with them. he would let them go on about how stupid he or others were and what's wrong in their life. The only problems he had were his own, but no one would listen to him. Still he was okay with it. Logan loved to make others feel better. He had dark blond hair and white but not pale skin, but what people really loved about him was his wonderful blue eyes and soothing voice. His friends asked him to do a few hypnosis videos with his voice in it, and of course Logan said yes. He wanted his friends to take all the credit but they insisted he take credit and tell viewers who he was at the end of the 8th video. People were shocked that he was just 15 years old and Logan was shocked that most of the other high schoolers from his school were viewers or listeners of his videos. Too bad his own voice didn't sooth him, to get his anger out he would read and play video games. If he wasn't reading or playing games he was playing his favorite sport, hockey. Logan's friends never questioned his method of releasing his anger because it would make him angry and he would take it out on the person who made him very very angry. Logan would usually get angry when bullies pushed his friends around. Only once did it lead to violence and it only took that one time for people to understand not to push him or his friends around. Logan remembered that day all too well. He remembered it because he got himself out of deep trouble, he hurt the guy so badly and it happened yesterday at band camp. Yesterday It was almost to the end of band camp 8 hours for 5 days and it was almost over. Out of the corner of his eye Logan could see someone he didn't recognize. 'Must be new,' Logan thought, 'I guess I'll be adding someone new to my list of friends' As he came closer Logan could see he was very tall, Logan could see he was only 3/4 the kids height. Logan saw he had big muscles and must be very strong. After everyone was dismissed Logan put away his trombone and went over to talk to the new kid. "Hi, I'm Logan," Logan said, "and I'm going to be a sophomore" "Sup I'm Mike," the new kid said, "I'm going to be a senior that means I shouldn't talk to you. "Why?" Logan asked. "Because I'm not going to," Mike said crossing his arms, "if I did I would be lowering myself to a looser like you." Logan ignored this and started reasoning. "I have tons of friends that are seniors," Logan said. "Then they're losers," Mike replied. "Then you're calling us losers," a girl said Logan knew it was Jess and with her was her sister. Mike turned around and started laughing, "I thought you only lowered yourself to a loser, but you are a loser. You both are so small and fat." They were small and a little tubby but not fat. "Hey!" Logan said getting a little angry, "They aren't fat" "Yes they are," Mike said, "This ones so fat I could roll her like a ball" Mike pointed his thumb at Jess's sister. "You're very wrong and very mean," Logan said. "Oh yeah," Mike said, "Watch this." Before anyone could do or say something Mike pushed Jess's sister onto the ground. Logan rushed over to help her up, his anger ready to be used. "Hey!" Jess shouted getting closer to Mike, "You can't push over my sister!" "Shut up, you fat ass midget!" Mike yelled and punched Jess in the face. This sent Logan over the edge. "SHUT UP YOU WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT!" Logan yelled and ran at Mike in that short distance he felt his anger give him more strength than ever, and he knew how to use it. Logan delivered a punch to Mike's right eye with his left hand. With the right side of Mike's face still showing Logan punched Mike's right eye again with his right hand. Mike leaned back covering his eye. Seeing the opportunity Logan punched Mike's upper legs and upper arms. Mike lurched forward as Logan predicted who delivered his right knee into the left half of Mike's face. Mike stumbled back his right eye already beginning to rapidly swell. "Hey," Logan said, "make a triangle with your thumbs and pointer fingers, look through it with both eyes open and put my nose in the triangle." Mike did what Logan told him to do quickly so he could go back to rubbing his face. "Now what the fuck did that accomplish?" Mike asked. "Whichever eye I can see most is your dominant eye which was your right eye." Logan explained "So my right eye is dominant," Mike said, "So what?" "So that means your right eye helps you most," Logan explained, "Which also means your right hand is probably your dominant hand" "That still doesn't explain anything why you punched my right side," Mike snapped "Oh, but it does," Logan said, "By punching you in the right eye and making it swell closed, I take away your good eye and leave you with poor perception of depth and center balance." Logan was right, Mike couldn't open his right eye and he was leaning off balance to the left. "With your legs and arms hurt it will be hard to give punches and kick as well as slow you down" Even though Logan was right Mike still charged trying to punch him. Logan moved a little to the left and dodged the right arm punch and garbed Mike's right wrist. Then using his other arm Logan elbowed Mike on the center of the lower arm. Logan moved behind Mike and towards the bleachers. Mike again charged and tried to punch with his left arm. Logan again dodged this and grabbed Mike's arm swinging him face first into the chain link fence. Mike tried to punch again barely missing Logan and hitting the fence. Mike ignored Logan for a short time, clutching his fist. Logan climbed much of the fence and kicked Mike in the nose while still holding on. Logan got to the top of the fence and jump, Mike looked up to see Logan put all his downward momentum and leg power to kick and land on Mike's face. Mike slowly got up and look to see Logan standing. "Don't you ever," Logan started the last three punches "Hurt," one punch Mike stumbled back, "My," second punch Mike stumbled back and was on the verge of unconsciousness, "Friends." one final punch Logan felt and heard the crack of bone and Mike was unconscious before he hit the ground. Today The only way Logan didn't get in trouble was because he and his friends claimed they had fought out of self defense. Logan decided to play some Battlefield 3. Quickmatch, game mode and map "surprise me," Logan said. Operation Firestorm 500% tickets. 'A long game,' Logan thought, 'Plenty of time for me to kill' Logan chose to snipe with a rifle scope, flash suppressor, and slugs. Logan went to the top of the mountain near the US deployment. Scanning around he saw someone running on the highway. 'easy pickings' Logan thought He fired one shot to see the distance he fired a second one and missed, the third one hit 'hotthorns (870MCS) NightRuler1000' and he was soon sniped off. Logan got into the support chopper that was flying over the RU deployment when he spotted a jeep he shot at it an wasted half of his ammo until as it was going up the hill he hit the driver 'hotthorns (870MCS) NightRuler1000' The pilot was then going low in the RU base, Logan decided to jump out and go for an enemy jet he. Jumped out and saw and enemy heading for the jet. Logan touched the ground just in time to knife the enemy and barely get in the jet. Once in the jet he noticed who he killed 'hotthorns (ACB-90) NightRuler1000' unlucky for them. Logan got off the ground only to accidentally fly into an enemy support chopper disabling his jet, he spotted the first person and flew straight into them. Once again he killed NightRuler1000, over and over and over again Logan kept running into NightRuler1000 and over and over he kept killing him or her... probably a her. Latter on in the match he looked up to see his entire team was being annihilated by NightRuler1000. Logan hoped she didn't find him, too late she was right in front of him with a USAS-12. Logan ran from cover to cover as NightRuler1000 went through clip after clip. Then an idea popped into his head "defib time!" Logan said. He ran straight at NightRuler1000 who missed every shot and shocked her to death. He couldn't believe it worked but it did. He started jumping up and down when all of the sudden the TV started blacking out like a loose light bulb. then electricity shot out of the TV shocking Logan constantly not sure of how he was still alive or would be alive after he wait and started to notice that the electricity hurt less and less. Then he was lifted off the ground and slowly felt his body collapse as it was sucked into the TV 'Never thought I'd go out like this' was the last thought that went through Logan's mind before he was completely sucked into the TV
Celestia's Rage"Loooggannn," a soft voice said, "Loogaann," Logan was trying his hardest to open his eyes. "Come on Logan we're here" Logan finally opened his eyes. "So tired," he groaned "Of course you're tired," Fluttershy said "After all you fell from the sky and you recovered quickly that must have taken alot of your energy, then you killed all the timberwolves on the train, and you only got a total of four hours of sleep so far. That's probably why your tired." "Thank you for summing that up," Logan said, "And I didn't kill all of them; I killed most of them. the guards killed one of them." "Plus the two that came when you left." Fluttershy said. Logan noticed a dark spot in the carpet floor. "Fluttershy, what's that?" Logan asked gesturing to the dark spot. "That's where I slept," Fluttershy said, "I got scared and thought that more timberwolves were going to attack. So I slept with you." "But nothing happened right?" Logan felt a little stupid for asking. "Um, no, well, yes," Fluttershy said, "you see I was just curious and thought it couldn't hurt so I-" Fluttershy gestured toward Logan's pants. "Oh no, hell no, you didn't-" Fluttershy nodded her head,"oh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh!!!" Logan was interrupted by violent giggling. He looked over to see Twilight and friends giggling. "DON'T TELL ME ALL OF YOU TOO!!!" the mares stopped then looked at each other and started laughing hysterically. "It was a joke silly," Pinkie said. "I don't find it funny!" Logan shouted, "You almost gave me a heart attack! Do you know how terrifying that is? Just what would you think if you heard this 'wake up Pinkie we're almost at are destination, oh and by the way, you did the deed with a human while you were asleep'" The five mares looked at Pinkie and started laughing even harder. Pinkie turned scarlet. "Ah, ah, ah can't breathe." Panted Applejack between laughs. "Okay," Logan said, "We cool?" The six mares nodded "Can we ask you a few questions?" Rainbow dash asked, "Like how are you so good at fighting?" "And how did you hit that timberwolf in the face with an axe?" Applejack asked. "And darling how did you survive?" Rarity added "First off fighting doesn't take all guts and force, alot of it is also planning, like when an enemy swings at you're head from the side you have two three options: one, duck and deliver a low blow; two, move back and deliver a high blow; or three, take the hit. Once your enemy starts to get wounded he starts to throw strategy out the window, that's when you can start to finish him or her off." "But what about-" Applejack started. "I know I didn't forget your question," Logan said reassuringly, "When throwing that axe you have to know your distance and where to aim." "How do you aim," Rainbow asked doubtingly. "When you're swinging an axe from the bottom, there is going to be lots of momentum at the head if you swing it hard enough. You just need to let go of that momentum at the right moment. Pointing your arm at your target usually works." Rarity open her mouth to speak but Logan stopped her, "I didn't forget about your question either. When your life is on the line you need to try to be perfect. Your motivation, not dying... and preventing others from dying." Logan finally brought up his questions to ask. "So where are we going? I never bothered to ask." "We're going to see the princesses," Twilight said looking proud that she answered the question. "That doesn't sound like a town to me," Logan said. "It's called Canterlot, it's the capital Equestria." Twilight said. "You seem to know alot of stuff about where we're going." Logan said, "have you been there before?" "I used to live there," Twilight said proudly, "I became princess Celestia's pupil then she sent me to Ponyville to learn about the magic of friendship." "Princesses?" Logan said, "What is this a fairy tale? What's their special talents? One is good at sucking the other is good at blowing. It gives a whole new meaning to royal affairs." All of them had their jaw dropped except for Pinkie who was laughing with a few snorts in between. "See Pinkie gets it" none of them responded, "Okay I'm sorry for insulting your princesses. So what is their special talents?" "Princess Celestia raises the sun and Princess Luna raises the moon." Twilight said. "I've always had this obsession about the moon and space and... the whole world!" Logan said, "The moon is so mysterious and beautiful, space is interesting you're weightless in space, and the world... so many things to do so many sights to see. The world is just... awesome." "What are you most obsessed about," Pinkie asked curiously. Logan thought for a moment, "The moon." He walked to the back of the car and stared up at the moon in wonderment. He remembered a song he heard on the discovery channel called the world is just awesome. Logan started to hum the song and immediately got it stuck in his head. "Watcha singin'?" Pinkie asked. "A song that got stuck in my head," Logan answered "Ooh lets hear it," Pinkie said. "No no" Logan said. "Yes yes" Pinkie insisted, the other mares joined in. "Fine fine." Logan said, "It starts off with two astronauts" Rainbow interrupted "What are astronauts" "They're like... pilots but they fly into space and sometimes the moon. They're looking at the world and it's so cool. 'never get old huh' 'nope?' it kinda makes you want to-' 'break into song' yup'" Logan broke into a song unfamiliar to the ponies. The mares looked at Logan in wonderment. "You have a lot of things to love," Pinkie said Logan nodded his head. "So what kind of technology do you have?" "The princesses have computers and Ponystation 3." Twilight said. "What technology do you have." "Technology that I own," Logan said, "I have two old computers, a TV, and a laptop in my backpack" Logan pressed to power button but nothing happened "that is dead. technology I don't own: Cars, trains, planes, Cell phones. so many things." "Are you a prince?" Pinkie asked Logan laugh, "No, I'm not a prince our system of government doesn't have king or queens it's more complicated. I'm just a normal 15 year old, well sorta normal" "Now arriving at Canterlot." a voice in a loudspeaker said. "Oh good," Logan said, "You have loud speakers." They walked out of the Canterlot train station. Logan follow behind Twilight looking at all the buildings. There must be hundreds of them. Then he noticed that the other ponies had looks of terror, sadness, and anger. "Twilight," Logan whispered, "put the restraints on my wrists." "What why?" Twilight asked. "I've seen the looks on other ponies faces." Logan said. "I don't understand." Twilight said. "Think about this," Logan said, "You see an enemy walk into your capital but with no restraints." "My immediate thought would be that the war is over or terms of surrender are to take place." Twilight said "But you don't know who is surrendering." Logan said. "No restraints" Twilight insisted. As they were walking along something hit Logan in the back of the head. Turned around and saw an apple coming down he caught it. 'This is probably what hit me in the head.' Logan thought he looked around and found a pony at and apple stand giving him an angry glare. Logan looked at the apple. Then began eating it. he hadn't eaten anything since he was sucked into this world. "That backfired," Logan said, and caught up with Twilight. Finally they stopped at a big door with guards in front. They didn't see Logan so they opened the door. They and let the six in then were distracted by a pegasus flying too close to the palace as they closed the doors Logan barely squeezed through. Logan was far behind and ran to catch up. They stopped in front of another large door with no guards. Twilight knocked on the door and waited. Then a white pony with a horn and wings opened the door, her mane and tail were a sparkling with mixed colors, Light blue on top, aquamarine, more light blue then light pink. She frowned at Logan and pointed her horn at him which started to glow. She was going to laser him or something it was obvious she was charging an attack. Logan grabbed her horn with his thumb and pointer finger by the end and tilted her head up so that she was looking at him and her attack was aimed at the ceiling. Logan smiled and waved. Celestia had a surprised look on her face. It then returned to her frown and she aimed at Logan again. Logan tilted her horn up again. Celestia put it down. Logan put it up. Celestia put it down. Logan got an idea. he pushed her horn down a little. Celestia put it all the way up. *pew* she shot the ceiling. "Let's start in a non-violent way," Logan said. In response Celestia pointed her horn at him again and began charging quicker. 'She's just going to keep aiming at me until she hits, that means I have to let her. This is gonna smart.' he thought to himself. Celestia was almost done charging. Logan sighed, "It's nice to meet you too." *pew* Celestia shot. Logan went flying across the large room. He flew 150 feet before hitting a wall making a dent in the stone. Logan opened his eyes slowly. "Ooh that burned." Logan groaned. The dent was at lest two and a half stories up and was deep enough to sit in. Logan sat down with his legs crossed and rubbed his head. "Are you okay," Rainbow Dash asked flying up and looking at Logan, Celestia had a look of suprise and terror. "Y-you can control their minds?!" Celestia said shocked Rainbow Dash. "Uh, sorta," Logan said, "It's more popularly know as making some friends. I can't believe you sent Twilight to study friendship, you should have went if this is how you introduce yourself: with a laser!" The mares started giggling. Celestia gave them a big scolding face which made them all stop and look away. "What is all the noise, sister," a voice said, another pony with a horn and wings. She was dark blue with a starry dark blue mane and tail which were surrounded by clear dark blue, and her eyes, Logan had seen others with blue eyes but he never felt as calm as when he was looking at her eyes. ' Is this what they felt when they said they felt calm looking into my eyes?' Logan wondered, 'I could stare at those eyes forever.' Logan was snapped out of his trance when the dark pony screamed "Human!" the dark pony started to charge an attack. "Oh... crap." *pew* the dark pony made the dent in the stone deeper. Logan's groaning voice echoed out from the dent, "It's nice to meet you too." Logan noticed the two magic beams felt different, Celestia's was very hot and probably burned him, the dark ponies was freezing and gave him freeze burn as if it were dry. 'Why is this wall so thick, and how did I make a dent in it without being killed' Logan wondered. He kicked the stone and it broke. 'It's weak stone. It's not for defense it's for looks.' "No no, Princess Celestia, Princess Luna stop!" Twilight shouted. "He's nice, he's good to us." "Oh really," Luna said, "Tia, did you tell them what the last human did when he came here?" Celestia shook her head, "You didn't even tell me why you wanted to see the human. and why humans are dangerous" Twilight said, "It just said, bring the human to Canterlot, and be careful humans are dangerous." "Long ago," Celestia started, "Before Luna was banished the first human came to Equestria. We welcomed him in then he disappeared for a year and came back with an army and tried to take over Equestria. He almost won." "Why say almost?" Logan asked, "Almost isn't completely, so just say he lost, it's that simple. What was this guy wearing when he came here?" "Why do you need to know? Luna asked. "'Cause it might give me hints as to which time period he cam from." "He was wearing chain mail armor all around with iron helmet, chest plate, leggings, and boots. He also had a sword and shield." Luna said. "He was probably from the medieval or dark ages." Logan said, "No wonder he tried to take over your land. In those times everyone was trying to gain land. That's what the textbook told me. All the land has be taken for a long time, the only wars are in developing countries and countries with corrupt government." Logan walked to the edge of the dent and looked down, "That's quite a drop." he said. "You need me to carry you down?" Rainbow asked. "Can you hold my weight?" "I'll try" Logan let Rainbow grab him from under the arms and slowly began the descent "So... heavy" They were still a half story up small enough of a drop. "Rainbow let go," Logan said. Rainbow let go and Logan landed on one knee with his hands as extra cushioning. 'Always wanted to do that,' he thought to himself. Logan stood up and the six mares rushed to him to see if he was alright. "Twilight Sparkle!" Celestia scolded, "Get away from the human right now!" Twilight hesitated, "No!" she shouted. "He saved everypony's lives on the train ride here from timberwolves, even the guards." Luna looked at Logan's clothes it was true. Not only were there countless holes in his pants and shirt but his clothes had his blood and was covered in green timberwolf blood. Luna was thankful that Logan saved them, even though he was a human. Celestia, however, didn't care. Celestia's horn glowed ready to teach her disobedient student a lesson. "Hey princess Molestia," Logan said trying to get her attention and tire her out. Luna snickered trying to hold a laugh "What did you just call me?!" She shouted. "Come get some," Logan taunted sticking his tongue out. Luna started to laugh Celestia didn't bother charging she shot and Logan dodged it. "She's the co-ruler of Equestria, yet she can't even hit the inside of a barn." Luna doubled over still laughing. Celestia charged Logan trying to impale him on her horn. Logan ran to the wall and just before she hit him he moved out of the way. Celestia rammed into the wall she tried to look at Logan but she couldn't her horn was stuck in the wall. Celestia finally noticed Luna was laughing "My sides," she said between laughs, "I have not laughed this hard since I scared Rainbow Dash on nightmare night." Logan looked at Celestia, "Here let me help you," he said thinking the rage was over. Logan got her horn out, "There we go! Now that we're done accusing-" Logan was stopped when Celestia impaled him in the stomach with her horn. "No sister!" Luna shouted firing a bolt of lightning at her causing Celestia to withdraw her horn. Logan dropped to his knees putting pressure on the wound to keep blood in to no avail as the blood seeped between his fingers. Logan fell to his side the last thing he saw was Luna standing over him. "I got stop this black out streak." he said quietly. Luna giggled, then he blacked out.
The Gigawatt Hammer"We have lost the objective." "Heads up C4 blowin" Logan heard familiar sounds. He hadn't moved yet, wait, that sounded like it was Battlefield 3 he must have fallen asleep while playing. There was one problem, he was in a bed, and a damn comfortable bed, much more comfortable than his top bunk at home. Logan opened his eyes and looked around, he wasn't home. It was night time, the moon was up and he was in a room a big one. "Okay I've got the C4 ready," a voice said, Logan looked over to see Princess Luna and another pony stitting at a TV with controllers. The pony had a horn and wings, and was light pink with different colors in her mane and tail banana yellow, violet, and purple. Logan sat up and felt pain everywhere, legs, arms, torso, even face, "Ahhh, my everything," he groaned. "Oh he's awake," Luna said, "how are you feeling?" "Like crap." "Well duh," The pink pony said, "Luna told me what happened and I think you are very brave and very lucky to be alive," "Who are you?" Logan asked. "This is Princess Cadence." Luna said. "She's not going to laser me too, right?" Logan asked. Luna laughed "No she's not going to laser you," "Finally," Logan said, "laser free" "Honey," a voice said, a White unicorn with a blue mane and tail walked in, "I've been looking all over for you," then he saw Logan "human" his horn started to glow. Logan knew another laser was coming. "Oh, so close," Logan said, *pew* the blast hit Logan square in his exposed chest and shot him out of bed and tumbling over the balcony outside the room. Logan tumbled over the stone rail backwards and was barely able to grab the bit of floor hanging out. Logan dangled their for a moment. "Don't look down, don't look down, don't look-" Logan looked down, he was on a mountain, only holding his life by one hand. "Why would you build a city on a mountain!?" Logan shouted as he grabbed on with his right hand and started pulling himself up. He heaved himself up onto the stone railing and looked up to see the unicorn who fired again shooting Logan far away from the city. Logan fell towards the ground. He was far above the clouds. Logan was sure he wouldn't live through this so he took the opportunity and went into position he saw sky divers do on TV. It felt like flying then he saw Luna falling with him she smile "Enjoy this," she said "it will take 15 full minutes to reach the ground." Logan started to sing again. Luna decided to join him in the last lines. Logan felt something under him, he saw Luna knew she was going to go back up. "Hold on tight!" she yelled with one flap of her wings she broke the sound barrier. Luna went shooting up and Logan saw the castle within seconds. They slowed slowed down and safely landed on the balcony. "And that is a sonic rainboom." Luna said proudly. The white unicorn had left but Cadence hadn't. Logan looked down and then realized he was only wearing his boxers, and hid behind the nearest object. Luna put on an evil grin "that's not the closest I've been to your member" Logan's head spun to look at Luna who pecked his cheek. "Say what?" Logan said looking at his boxers. "when?!" "When I decided to wash the blood out of your clothes." Luna said "I knew I there wouldn't be enough time to make new clothes so I had them washed, I had your boxers washed as fast as possible." "Wait you got my boxers off?! Logan asked. "Who saw-" Logan gestured towards he boxers. "Only us two," Luna said, "And it was quite a big thick one too." Logan thought his cheeks were boiling. "You would remember." Cadence said, "After all you were the one who wouldn't stop playing with it." Luna hid her face and Logan wanted his head to explode. "You kept playing with it even after it got hard. It was like you were about to do the deed." "I-i-it was for scientific data." Luna said. "Yeah right!" Cadence laughed, "If I wasn't there I know you would have fucked him." "CHANGE TOPIC!" Logan shouted. "Oohoohoo, someones getting aroused." Cadence said. Logan looked down, dear god she was right Logan tried to push it down so it was less noticeable but only succeeded in pushing it out the middle of his boxers into plain sight. Cadence looked away, Luna looked at it. "Looks like Luna is willing to help you with that." Logan put his member back in his boxers, and looked around trying to find extra cover. "It's no big deal." Luna said, "we're naked" Logan's mind started filling in gaps girls to mares. Logan stared into Luna's eyes and she stared into his. He felt calm again. Luna walked to the bed, lied down on one side and gestured Logan to come and lay down with her. Logan didn't object he was too calm so he walked over and lied down on his side still looking into each others eyes. "Are you okay?" Cadence asked. "I feel so calm looking into your eyes," Logan said to Luna "Me too" Luna agreed "I let you two get to it then." Cadence teased, no response. "I'm going to see if Logan's clothes are clean." Then Cadence walked out of the room. They stared into each others eyes not saying anything. Then Luna leaned forward then planted her lips on Logan's. At first Logan was hesitant but then he started returning the kiss. Logan widened the gap between his teeth a bit, as soon as he did Luna thrust her tongue into his mouth and began exploring it. Logan began to do the same, after what seemed like forever or at least an hour Luna broke the kiss. She blushed realizing what she had just done. Logan felt bad that she was upset a little, "You were wonderful," Logan said in a calm voice. "So...," Luna started, "You wanna play some video games, maybe Battlepony 3 on the Pony Station 3?" "Sure," Logan said, he and Luna walked to two of the three TVs. Logan looked at the PS3 it looked the same as his from back home. "The technology is similar, maybe the same," Logan said. "You can use my sister's account," Luna said. "Hold on," Logan said, "if the technology is the same, maybe I can log on to my account." Logan made a new user and typed in email and password. He waited for what was no less than a second before in the top right hand corner of the screen a notice popped up. 'signed in'. "Oh ho oh yeah," Logan said, "What's your account name? If I can sign in, I can probably add you to my friends list." Luna started tearing up, "You consider me a friend?" "Heck yeah," Logan said, "You helped me so much and we kissed. You're a friend, and maybe more." Luna blushed "So what's your account name?" "NightRuler1000," Luna said, Logan immediately recognized the name. 'She may still be angry from all that luck I had,' Logan thought to himself, unknowingly Logan made a worried face. "What's wrong?" Luna asked noticing something was troubling Logan. Logan didn't respond at first but then again she would find put better be now that put it off. "I'm worried you'll recognize my account name and not want to be my friend for it." "Why? What's your account name?" Luna asked. "Don't laser me when I show you," Logan said. "I won't," Luna reassured. Logan sent the friend request. Luna looked at the top right of her screen and looked at the name, hotthorns. Luna's jaw hit the floor. "You're the one who-" "Kept getting extremely lucky," Logan finished. "Please tell me I'm still your friend." Luna put a straight face and spoke, "I'm still your friend," Logan breathed a sigh of relief, then Luna put on a playful smile, "But that doesn't mean I can't get revenge." Luna pushed Logan onto his back with her magic then sat on his legs just below his pelvis and used her front hooves to pin his arms. Her horn started to glow. "Hey you promised no lasers," Logan said nervously. "You never said I couldn't zap you" Luna said grinning. "How much?" Logan asked, Luna shot a show of lightning out the balcony. "But that's too much, It will stop my heart and kill me!" "I know," Luna said, "But I can restart it too. Tell me what the afterlife was like when you get back!" Luna shot lighting into Logan. He had never felt such a sensation. It was light he could feel his the electricity in his blood. Logan wished the electricity would stay away from his heart, he knew it wouldn't though, he would be dead when Luna stopped electrocuting him, but his heart should be racing and it wasn't, it seemed normal to him. Logan willed the electricity out, he tried to think positive and imagined some of the electricity bursting out like an electric pulse to shock Luna not to hurt her, just to stop her, then Logan tried commanding the electricity to do so. Suddenly something burst out from his chest it was a blue thin sheet of electricity around him like a ball. It didn't do anything to him as it burst outward Logan wasn't sure if it went through him or just passed over him. It took less than a second to reach Luna, when it did, she stopped shocking him and her body shook for a second. Luna took a moment to collect herself then looked at Logan in awe and curiosity. "What was that?!" she exclaimed. "What!" Logan shouted hoping nothing was wrong. "I can feel my magic electricity," Luna said, "But when I started shocking you the electricity wasn't coming out and I lost it inside of your body," Logan gave her a confused look, Luna rolled her eyes, "I lost the electricity because your body absorbed it. Logan checked to see if he could feel any electricity in his body, "Nothing," Logan said, "Wait." then Logan felt it everywhere in his body were pockets or balls of electricity each connected to another or more by a stream of electricity. "I feel it, electricity is everywhere." "What did you do?" Luna asked, "After a few seconds of electrocuting you a ball of my lost electricity expanded out and shocked me," "I thought of a hollow ball of electricity expanding out and I tried to command the electricity to do it, and it worked." Logan said. "How can you control electricity." Luna pondered. Logan thought then it occurred to him that the electricity had sucked him into this world. "Luna," Logan said, "when I killed you with the defibrillator, what did you do?" "I got really angry," Luna said, "And zapped the TV with everything I had." "I got into this world by electricity coming out of my TV and sucking me in." Logan said, "Can you sense any of your magic?" "I can sense magic from over 1000 years ago," Luna said proudly. "Search my body for your magic from a few days ago" Logan said. Luna's closed her eyes and her horn lit up. "You have multiple magic scars," Luna said. "What are those?" Logan asked. "It's the term used when a body is given an overdoes of magic which leaves a mutation," Luna explained. "Can the mutation give special powers?" Logan asked. "I suppose so," Luna said. "So I have magic scars from a few days ago right?" Logan asked. Luna nodded her head, "I entered this world a few days ago," "So," Luna said trying to figure out what Logan was getting at. "So, you shot magic lightning at your TV and lightning came out of my TV and sucked me in here," Logan explained. Luna started to piece together the information, "Are you saying-" "Yes Luna, the lightning you shot at your TV was the lightning that sucked me in and gave me the magic scars." Logan explained. "So, I am the reason you thou art here, and the reason thee can command electricity?" Luna said nervously. "Yup," Logan said in confirmation. "Logan's clothes are-" Cadence stopped as she walked into the room and saw Logan and Luna, they then noticed Logan was still on his back and Luna was sitting on Logan's legs just below his pelvis with her front hooves pinning his arms, "Was I interrupting your fun, it looks like you two were about to get a little naughty in here." Cadence added with a sly grin. "WE WEREN'T DOING ANYTHING!!!" Luna and Logan both shouted. "Right," Cadence said. Luna got off Logan who got up. "Can I really control electricity?" Logan mumbled to himself. "What did you say?" Cadence asked. Logan said nothing instead he walked over out on the balcony, Luna and Cadence followed. Logan looked at his hand. He imagined shooting a small condensed orb of electricity shooting out of his fist and exploding on impact or when he open his hand. Logan looked up to see something flying in the sky. "Rainbow Dash?!" Logan called. "Yeah?" Rainbow called back. "What are you doing flying around so late?" Logan asked "Nothing," Rainbow said she disappeared be hind a cloud. "She's spying on us," Logan said. He directed electricity to his fist and and shot it through the cloud Rainbow had disappeared behind. He opened his and and a ball of electricity just about 15 feet in diameter blew away the clouds. Logan saw something and he motioned Luna and Candace to step back. Rainbow Dash landed on the balcony. "How did that feel?" Logan asked Rainbow. "It shocked me and shot me through the air" she said "I'm going to call it the gigawatt hammer" Logan said. "You did that?!" Cadence shouted in disbelief. "I guess have have some explaining to do" Logan said. "You can do that tomorrow night you must sleep now, can't have you seen at day or else ponies would freak out. By now all of our time schedules have turned to sleep at day and be awake at night. Plus we can practice on controlling your abilities tomorrow." Luna said. "I'm off to bed," Cadence said and left the room. "I guess I'm sleeping on the floor," Logan said "Oh no you don't," Luna said, "You're sleeping with me in my bed," Logan giggled childishly, "Not like that." "How old are you?" Logan asked as they climbed into bed "When I was changed back by the elements, I lost most of my age, I'm technically 15 now, just like you." "Good, because it makes this a whole lot less weirder." Logan kissed Luna, it took her by surprise but she started returning the kiss they explored each others mouth locking tongues a few times. After about thirty seconds they broke the kiss and Luna closed the blinds. "Even better the second time," Luna said
A Medical Break ThroughLogan woke up the next night feeling like nothing had happened last night, like he never got hurt. He turned on his other side to look at Luna. Luna had a smile on her face and was facing him. Logan didn't know what time it was but it didn't matter he didn't know what time Luna woke up at. As if on cue Luna opened her eyes and looked at Logan while a smile, "Good morning." she said, In response Logan sent some electricity to warm her up and loosen up her muscles. "Does that hurt?" Logan asked "No," she said in a calm voice, "It feels like a massage," she pressed up against Logan, her fur was so soft and her mane was so smooth. Luna blushed realizing what she was doing, "I was cold," she lied, and pressed up even closer. There was a knock on the door, "Oh Luna," a voice called Logan recognized it as Celestia's, "It's time to raise the moon," Celestia opened the door and walk in she looked at Luna smiling with body pressed up against Logan's. "No lasers," Logan said. "I cuddled up to him," Luna said. "Nothing sexual happened right," Celestia said. "No nothing sexual, but we did kiss" Luna said as she got up, opened the blinds, and started to raise the moon. "Does that mean your together?" Celestia asked. "Yes dear sister, and not only does it mean we're together," Luna said as she finished raising the moon, "It also means I got a coltfriend or boyfriend before you," Luna stuck her tongue out at Celestia, "I guess this means I'm better at making friends than you." Celestia stared at her sister in disbelief, "But, but, but," She stuttered trying to get back at her sister. "Now off to bed," Luna said, "Are there any court duties to attend to?" "No," Celestia said sadly as she walked to the door. "Hey Tia," Luna said, "You wanna hear something shocking?" "Sure," Celestia said. "He's hotthorns," Luna said pointing her hoof at Logan. Celestia's jaw hit the floor. "I'm going to bed," Celestia said as she stormed out. Cadence walked in with in with Shining Armor. "No lasers" Logan said to Shining Armor. "What's with Celestia?" Cadence asked. "She just jealous that I got a coltfriend slash boyfriend before she did," Luna said, "What do you prefer coltfriend or boyfriend?" Luna asked Logan. "Whatever you're used to saying," Logan said "Now then," Luna said, "Let's see how those wounds are healing." Luna started unwrapping the bandage on his stomach where Celestia impaled him with her horn, "Now it's going to take some time to heal, so take it easy with-" Luna stopped when she had fully unwrapped the bandage. "Y-you're fully healed?" Logan looked down and was shocked to see the deep wound that Celestia had made was now done healing, there was not even scar tissue. "I think I have an explanation." Logan said. "Well than spit it out," Luna said, "It could save lives." "When I had crashed to the ground from the sky, Fluttershy said I was badly injured," Logan said, "But there was electricity all around my body, and the electricity on the wounds were making them heal faster. She said it took an hour. to fully heal, but it may have taken an hour because you overcharged me." "I did faint after electrocuting the TV," Luna said. "That's probably enough to do It," Logan said. Then Luna thought of something brilliant, "Hey," she said, "If the electricity was all over you and it took an hour to heal, would it go faster if you concentrated your electricity to one spot." "I don't know," Logan said. "Let's test it," Luna said pointing her horn at Logan. Logan dove behind the bed, "Nuh nuh nuh nuh!!!" he screamed. Luna doubled over laughing, "You sounded like a girl!" "I got a better idea," Logan said, "Are there any ponies at the hospital?" "Yes," Luna confirmed, "Why?" "What if, and I'm just thinking here, but what if could use my electricity to heal others too?" Luna thought for a moment, "I can see how you're getting this." Luna said, "If you can heal yourself can't you heal others." "But what if he kills them on accident?" Shining Armor pointed out. "He won't," Luna said reassuringly, "I'll prove it," Luna levitated a sword hanging on the wall and cut her cheek with it. "Okay," Logan said. he brought some electricity with the intention to heal. "Ready?" he asked to make sure Luna wanted to go through this. "I'm ready," Luna said with hint of nervousness in her voice. Logan decided the air was too heavy, "You know that conversation could have been in a different situation," Logan said with a sly grin. At first Luna didn't pick up onto what Logan was saying then she understood, Luna went red in the face, "Oh wow really Logan?!" Luna tackled Logan pinning him to the ground. "Oh it seems you want that situation now," Logan teased. "Not while I'm here lovebirds," Cadence said, "I may help ponies regain love but I don't want see what they do afterwards." "Alright," Logan said, "Let's see if this works, but first get off me please," Luna got off and Logan stood up. Logan focused the electricity to his hand and touched Luna's cheek, if felt odd he could not feel the cut on Luna's cheek with his hand, but he could feel it with his electricity. Focusing the electricity on the cut, Logan could feel it rapidly healing, he looked up to see if Luna noticed. Their eyes connected and they both blushed. At last Logan could feel that the cut was fully healed, he removed his hand to see the cut was gone. "How long did that take?" Logan asked to no pony in particular. "About ten seconds," Shining Armor responded. "Did it take a lot of electricity?" Luna asked. Logan checked to see how much he had left it was almost all gone, of course he didn't check in the morning to make sure he was full, plus the healing last night probably drained him. "I don't know if it took a lot," Logan said, "But I do know I'm almost empty, care to refill me," Luna nodded her head with a big smile, Logan imagined absorbing electricity through his hands. "Aim for my hands." "Ready?" Luna asked. "I'm ready," Logan said. Luna saw her chance for revenge, "You know that conversation could have been used in a different situation." she said. "Shut it and zap," Logan said, putting his hands close together in front of himself. Luna shot, Logan was absorbing the electricity but very slowly, he separated his hands which allowed him to absorb from two spots and sped up the process, finally Logan was fully recharge, "done," he shouted "That was only like three seconds," Luna said, "are you really done?" "Yeah," Logan said, "Fully recharged." Cadence grabbed Logan's arm and pulled him towards the door, "Come on we got ponies to heal," she said. She yanked Logan's arm again causing him to loose his balance and fall on his face. "Are you sure I should go looking like this?" Logan questioned. Cadence looked at him an saw he was only wearing his boxers. Logan stood up and looked around for his clothes "Where did I leave them last night?" Logan asked himself out loud. In response Luna threw his pants and shirt hitting him in the face. "We'll be out waiting for you," Cadence said dragging Shining Armor out with her. Logan walked over to the be and sat on the edge trying to figure out if his shirt and pants were inside out or not. Luna watched the door as she walked over to where Logan was sitting, making sure that no pony was around. She stood in front of Logan who was still trying to put on his clothes, Luna pushed Logan onto his back and lied down on top of him. "What is this?" Logan questioned, "Is pinning me to something going to be a hourly thing because-" Logan was cut off when Luna kissed him thrusting her tongue into his mouth and tried licking his entire tongue. Logan moved it around avoiding her tongue in a game. Eventually Luna got his tongue cornered in his cheek and fully licked it. They broke the kiss "-I could get used to it," Logan finished. "Oh there's much more where that came from," Luna said, "And if you heal a lot of ponies at the hospital I might give you something extra special," Luna added. "What do you mean 'extra special'?" Logan asked, in response Luna reached down and started rubbing Logan's groin area on his boxers, receiving a groan of pleasure. Luna got off Logan and let him finally get his clothes on. "Not so much pure and holy but I'm clean and holey," Logan joked, "Now I just need to find my shoes," "So, it seems you like baggy or loose clothes," Luna said, giving Logan his shoes with his socks in them. Logan wore wide shoes that skateboarders usually used, just because his foot was too wide for all the tennis shoes in a store. "I role with my own style, the only one that works for me, t-shirt and jeans, with wide shoes" Logan said, as the walked out the door and down a hallway. They then walked down some stairs to meet Cadence, Shining Armor, and two odd pegasi. Instead of regular pegasus wings they had bat wings, or dragon wings, and they looked very serious and unhappy, well most of the guards were anyways. They both looked at Logan with a deep hatred. "Logan, these are my two of my best friends, and my personal guards" Luna said, "Anvil, Hammer, we have a new addition to the our list of best friends," Immediately the look of hatred disappeared and was replaced with a look of acceptance. The six walked to the door and suddenly a thought popped into Logan's head, "Hey Luna where is Twilight and her friends?" "Five of them are in apartments. Rainbow Dash is in the hospital with a broken wing," Luna said she then turned to Anvil and Hammer, "Hey you wanna hear something shocking." "Sure," they both said "Okay, there's actually two shocking things, one I gave Logan a magic scar and now he can command electricity," Luna said, the two guards looked at Logan who sent some electricity sparking from his hands for a moment, then he stopped and turn to Luna, "Two Logan is a Plays Battlepony 3 and guess what his account name is," Luna pause for dramatic effect, "hottorns," The two guards jaws hit the floor, "You mean he-" Anvil started "Got super lucky," Logan finished. They finally were out into the city part of Canterlot. Luna led the way to the hospital, Logan kept stumbling over things he eyes hadn't adjusted fully to the dark. Luna slowed down to Logan. "Need some light?" Luna asked. "It takes some time for my eyes to adjust to the dark," Logan said. "Here," Luna said, "How's this?" her horn lit up for a moment then it was dark but only for a second then it was much easier to see. "What did you do?" Logan asked. "I cast a spell that will allow you to adjust your pupil giving you the ability to basically have night vision" Luna said, "The best part is it can only be removed by me and it never wears off," "Sweet," Logan said adjusting his vision now able to see clearly, it still felt like his pupils adjusted on their own. Logan now noticed that he could see basically everywhere, looking into alleyways and dark rooms he noticed some ponies were still awake. They looked at Luna but had a look of fear on their faces; however, when they looked at Logan they had a look of pure hatred just like Anvil and Hammer had but it was worse. "Just try to ignore them, " Luna said aware Logan noticed the glares. They kept walking until they came to a building Logan assumed was the hospital. They walked in and saw ponies some, holding a foreleg, or covering a cut. They looked at Logan first with and angry glare, then the injured ponies saw Luna, they dropped their forelegs of uncovered their cuts and bowed. "Rise," Luna said, they did as they were told and went back to covering cuts or holding breaks, Luna looked to Logan, "Ready to heal?" "Yup," Logan said, Luna looked around and for a pony to heal that would gain the other ponies trust. She saw a colt holding his foreleg with an impatient frustrated look on his face and a filly sucking on her foreleg with tears flowing down her face. "What's wrong young ones?" Luna asked the two. "I broke my foreleg," the colt said in a regular voice "And I go-got a p-paper cut," the filly said stuttering in between a few words to catch her breath from crying "We're twins," the colt said, "I got the brains, looks, guts, and she got... I don't now what she got." "Well my friend can have you all better in no time," Luna said smiling, "Logan," "Yeah?" "Help these young ones," Logan came into view and the young gasped and hid behind their parents. "I'm not going to bite," Logan said, "Now who is the one with the paper cut, I'll fix it," the little filly came out from behind her mother and approached Logan. "No don't," the colt said, "Remember what the comic said, he'll eat you," Logan chuckled, "First of all you have been reading way too many fiction books, second it looks like your sister got the guts, now where's the paper cut," the filly held out her foreleg to show a little cut with a bit of blood coming out. "Okay this might tickle a little," Logan said, bringing electricity to his hand. He placed it on the filly's paper cut and it stared to heal. The filly started laughing, "It tickles," she said, Logan lowered the amount of electricity and she stopped laughing. Finally the cut was done healing. The filly jumped over to her brother and started pushing him to Logan. He tried to get away as if he was being pushed towards a giant meat grinder. "Looks like you're the real sissy," Logan said trying to make the colt mad. "I'm no sissy," the colt said and he slowly held out a foreleg. "So what seems to be the problem?" Logan asked, trying to get the colt to come out of his isolation. "I broke it," the colt said drooping his head. "Okay this might tickle, how ticklish are you?" Logan asked. "Oh he's very ticklish." the filly said. "Low amount," Logan said to himself. He lightly grabbed the foreleg and sent some electricity to heal it but stopped, the bone was out of line. Okay this you bone is out of line so if I try to heal it right of the bat, it will look odd. So what I'm going to have to do is use my electricity to stop the nervous system from sending and receiving messages to the broken area." The colt gave him a confused look, he sighed, "I'm going to numb up your foreleg so you won't feel any pain when I readjust the bone," "Ohhhhhhhh,"" the colt said in understanding. Logan sent some electricity and blocked up the nervous system in the broken area, then he moved the bone down and to the left into place. He let the the colt regain feeling in his foreleg, then began healing. It took him five minutes to fully heal the colt's leg. The colt stood on it, then put all his weight on it, "HA HA THANKS!" he shouted with joy, by now the filly was asleep on her dad's back. "So," Logan said, "Who else wants to get healed?" hoofs shot into the air all around. "Let's get started,"
The Black Mass The Black Mass It was now one in the morning and Logan had just finished healing half of the patients at the hospital, and was almost out of electricity. "Is this town really this clumsy?" Logan asked as he finished healing a broken back leg. "There's just... a lot of ponies in Canterlot," Luna said yawning on after her first two words, "the more ponies there are the more often accidents happen." Logan noticed Luna was stuggling to stay awake, she was getting bored and standing in one place wasn't helping, she probably long to be back at the palace playing Battlepony 3. Her eyes fluttered as she tryed to keep them open, she yawned again as Logan began to heal a pony who accidentally cut herself with a knife. "You should go cack to the palace," Logan said, "you've been yawning since midnight," "And why would I do that?" Luna asked, "I could always say I would like to keep Rainbow Dash company and sleep in a chair next to her." Rainbow Dash, Logan hadn't healed her yet "Point taken," Logan said, "but it's not the best excuse," "Either way I'm going to use it now," Luna said walking away from Logan and toward the front desk. Logan could hear what they were saying, and it sounded like Rainbow Dash was the furthest from the front desk. Ironic that she broke a wing, most of the time she was talking she was also flying. Well at least she only broke her wing, if she was flying foreward and hit her head she could have been in real trouble. Logan remembered hearing that the you could break your spine if you hit a wall with your head down, and you only had to be going walking speed. Logan finished healing the pony who cut herself with a knife and moved on to the next pony. Ironicly, she was a nurse at the hopital, "What happened, to you?" Logan asked. "I bumped my nose, and now it won't stop bleeding" she said. Logan healed it in a matter of seconds and she stepped aside for the next pony. Then a device started beeping she looked at it and read aloud with a bit of confusion, "Rainbow Dash's heart rate sky rocketed," "Luna probably just walked in her room," Logan said, "your heart rate can increase from being supprised," "Princess Luna is still walking dow the hall," the nurse said, Logan looked down the hall Luna went and saw the she was entering the stairs of elevator. "Then she probably angry that she cant fly," Logan said, "your heart rate can increase from anger too." The nurse put her head down and a hoof on her shin and considered this, "It makes sense," she said, "Rainbow Dash was very upset when the doctors told her she broke her wing." Logan turned to the next pony in line and started healing a broken nose, then alowed himself to drift off into his own thoughts. Logan had been gone for two days now, he wondered if anyone noticed he was missing. "They never believe me if I told them the mess I'm in," Logan mumbled to himself, "it's way to abominable situation," The only way they would have the slightest chance of believing he fought and killed creatures that didn't exsist in his world was if he remined them of the beat down he gave Mike. Logan saw he was done healing the broken nose hen moved on to the next pony. She had stiches from the top of her chest, to the bottom of her belly, "Surgery?" Logan asked, receiving a nod. he began healing her alowing himself to slip into his thoughts again. 'I'm so grounded when or if I get home,' Logan thought to himself. Even though Logan made a few friends here, he missed many things, hockey, family, friends, but strangely the thing he missed most was his place as the punching bag, the complaint taker, and basically the social worker. Logan knew these unhappy thoughts would plague his mind, so he tried taking his mind off it, "Think of something completely off topic," Logan said to himself. He thought for a moment, "If you choke a smurf, what color will it turn?" He asked himself, and chuckled at the thought of it turning white. "A smurf?" the mare questioned, Logan nodded his head still chuckling, "Is that what their calling it now?" "Oh stop it!" Logan said in a loud whisper. All of the sudden Logan heard a familiar beeping sound but instead of one doctor or nurse it was all of them. Logan finished healing the mare and turned towards the group of doctors comparing devices, "What's wrong?" Logan asked. "Strange," One of them said, "All of our notifying devices say that the patients' heart rates are increasing and if we look at it room by room the next patient who heart reat will increase wil be-" The doctor's sentence was cut short by a shrill scream. It was so blood curdling that electricity flowed into his hands and lifted him of the ground for a second. He decided to figure out how that happened later somepony was terrified. Logna ran into the room where the scream came from which wasn't far. He looked around the room to see a dark black mass hovering over the frightened mares bed. "Hey ugly," Logan shouted, "what's wrong with you, scaring ponies like that," The black mass did nothing. Logan turn to the doctors for an answer of what it was, but all he saw was a look of sheer horror as they stared above him. "It's now righ behind me isn't it." the look on there face said yes, so he turned around. It was now right in front of him hovering in the air, from the dark mass Logan could see a face forming. It was not a pony it had six yellow eyes that sometimes looked orange from the lighting, its stare was soulless that of a cold blooded killer, only four could be seen when it looed at Logan. It had no nose just holes, and the teeth were long and sharp, stained with blood, with the front teeth similar to fangs. It stared at Logan who was trying his best to keep a straight face. It took a deep breath in and screamed, "RRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Blood and spit flew out of its mouth as it screamed jaw unhinged. It was like a gust of foul wind and almost blew Logan over. When it had finished it turned translucent and passed through Logan, it felt like his inards were either being torn apart on the inside or they were about to become his outards. Logan sent electricity to the spot it as passing through and shocked it, it only grunted in pain and left the hospital. Logan ran outside to persue it but it was gone. "What was THAT?!" one mare shouted. Logan didn't know but it didn't seem friendly, it might have been Death himself. Logan remembered hearing that Death could take on any shape or form, but he would always be followed by a trail of darkness. Logan turned and walked back to the people in line still waiting to e healed. Logan had finally noticed that he felt weak like his knees were about to give in at any moment. Logan told himself that THING was gone and his normal strength. Logan saw that all the fillies and colts were crying, he had to cheer them up. 'electric pulse,' Logan thought, 'better make it small though,' He gathered up all the young sent a few sparks into the air. The sparks popped in a four inch ball of translucent electricity. The colts wowed and the fillies giggled, Logan shot more sparks into the air all timed so the display would last longer as he walked to the front of the line to heal the next pony who had boken a few ribs. "So what was that thing?" The pony asked. "You tell me," Logan said, "this is your world not mine," Logan finished healing the pony and sent more sparks to the young before starting to heal the next pony. "What was that thing?" The mare asked, Logan saw this would keep happening. "If you ask me what that thing was you're wasting your time, I don't know!" Logan called out to the line of ponies. he began to heal the mare as quicly as possible hoping that Luna might have an answer. Logan turn his thoughts to that thing, those soulless yellow eyes, and razor sharp teeth, Logan thought for a second it might have come out of hell. Logan turned his thoughts away from the thing and turned them towards home. He missed playing and practicing hockey. He would probably need to retape the blade of his stick when or if he got back, and if he did, would he still have his powers? These thoughts also plagued his mind so he stopped thinking about his problems. Slowly but surely logan got to the last pony. "The great Trixie demands you heal her," the pony said. "How about 'please heal me' you pompus idiot," Logan said. He healed her but rapidly giving her a shock and poffy hair. Logan walked down the hall and up the stairs. Rainbow Dash's room was the furthest from the main door, probably to keep her from leaving. He had heard Rainbow Dash was not one to have a controlled temper or patience. She like to nose around in others business that was for sure. Logan walked in saw Luna's back turned to the door looking at Rainbow Dash who was in the corner with a look of sheer terror on her face. "Rainbow Dash? Luna?" Logan called in confusion, "What's wrong Rainbow?" "I-I-I sh-she," Rainbow tried to say, she turned back to Luna tears begining to flow out of her eyes, "p-pl-please, please!, PLEASE! DON'T KILL ME!" Rainbow's voice was a terrified scream. Her eyes went wide, "NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, I DON'T WANT TO DIE, I DON'T WANT TO DIE, I DON'T WANNA- AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" Rainbow let out a blood curdling scream as she collapsed to the floor. Her scream and crying stopped and she started sobbing. Rainbow looked up at Luna again and her eyes went wide with horror, "NO NOT AGAIN I'LL DO ANYTHING, NO, NO, NOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" another blood curdling scream, then her wide eyes instead of crying tears started crying blood. "Luna!" Logan screamed as he ran over to her, "what's happening to-" "RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" Logan was knocked back by an all too familiar roar. Luna turnedround and what Logan saw sent a chill of terror up his spine. Luna's body was still all there but her head was now that of the dark mass.
Trail of BloodLogan didn't know if his mind refused to or couldn't accept the fact that the thing was on or morphed with Luna. Luna, was she dead now or was she still alive? What did the thing do to Rainbow Dash, was she still alive? Logan looked to Rainbow who was writhing on the floor slowly starting to curl up into a ball. Rainbow was only in shock but Luna, Logan wasn't sure. "Get off her!" Logan screamed his voice cracking a little, "Get off her, or out of her, or whatever!" "Okay, okay calm down sheesh," the thing said, it left Luna who started wobbling. Logan ran to her and caught her just before she hit the ground. Tears welling in his eyes Logan forgot the thing and looked at Luna in his arms. Her hair was over her eyes and Logan couldn't tell if they were open or not. He didn't want to know but he felt he had to. Logan bushed the hair away to see Luna's eyes were closed. "Oh... oh god," Logan sobbed, "Luna you better be okay," no response, "you have to be okay," no response, "please be okay... please... please," Logan repeatedly sobbed the word with no response. Logan turned his attention to the thing, he looked at it, he felt his anger hit and exceed a boiling point. Logan layed Luna's head down then bolted up looking at the thing, and it looked back not saying anything. Then before Logan thought about it his body swung his fist at the thing at an incredible speed feuled by anger. The punch was so hard that a normal person would have had not enough time to react and would probably be knocked out. The thing flinched after the punch passed through it, "Stupid boy," it growled, "you can only touch me when I allow you to," Logan realized it was right but remembered his electricity could. Logan directed electricity his fist and swung. The thing saw the punch coming but didn't move expecting the punch to go through itself, but it didn't count on electricity. The thing was sent spinning into a wall and out the other end. Logan knew it would come back so he directed electricity to his hands. Seconds latter it came back in with a cloak and a human like body, it was holding its head in pain. Logan let loose a stream of arcing and flowing electricity onto it. "AAAAAAHHHHHH!" the thing screamed in pain, "stop they're fine!" Logan didn't care he kept going but it wasn't long before he ran out of electricity. "They're alive," it said. Logan felt there was electricity still on the things body so Logan drew it out it. "I'll call that the overcharge," Logan said, now calm from his fit of rage but still upset. Logan sat down cross legged next to Luna and stroked her mane, tears begining to flow again down his cheek as he stay silent. The thing had gotten up and it had gotten angry, it picked Logan up by his neck and slamed him against the wall. The thing looked into his eyes obiously angry and ready to strike, but it didn't. As it looked into Logan's eyes the anger in its face slowly left and turned to different emotions understanding, then sadness. Logan broke his gaze from the thing and looked at Luna, her stomach didn't seem to be rising telling Logan she might not be breathing, she must be dead. The thing looked at Luna then back at Logan who was not on the verge of passing out because it was choking him. Logan saw the tunnel that he heard about when you were about to pass out. He saw the gray tunnel form around his peripheral vision slowly closing in as the gray turned to black. Then it began to subside, the tunnel was gone and he was breathing but not gasping for air. The thing had let go and Logan was laying on the floor. He used all his strength to crawl to Luna. Logan just lay there next to her before he put a hand on her cheek. "She fine kid," the thing said, "your marefriend is just tired," Logan said nothing but just looked at Luna. Then a question worked its way into his mind. "Why did you let go of me?" Logan asked. "I looked into your eyes and it reminded me of Luna courage and strength on the outside but under was a harsh past that wanted never to be mentioned. Luna wants to cover up-," the thing was stopped by Logan holding a hand up off the gound to keep him from countinuing and a look that told the thing Logan didn't want to hear it, "You have an unhappy past, lots of being pushed around and the results of it," Logan knew what he was mentioning, he had covered it up for so long that he almost forgot about it himself. In 5th grade after being pushed around for so long Logan wanted to fight back so he did. He won but it wasn't pretty sight. "So, who are you?" Logan said getting up, "and why are you here?" Logan was wobbling, his legs ready to give in. "I'm Death," it said grabbing Logan, who opened his mouth to speak but Death stopped him, "if I touch you I can kill you or heal you." With that Logan started to regain his strength. He picked up Rainbow Dash who squirmed to get comfortable in Logan's arms before he put her down on a bed and covered her with blankets, he did the same with Luna. Then he looked at Death. "So," Logan said, "why are you here?" "I'm here regularly," Death said, "ponies gotta die some time. Now let me wake them up." Logan looked at Death with a face that was questioning what Death did to the ponies, "Rainbow Dash I tortured, Luna I put to sleep will I visited Nightmare Moon," Logan gave him a confused look, "It'll all make sense soon," he said and with that he disappeared. He didn't wake up Rainbow or Luna, well Rainbow needed sleep. Logan went over to Luna and decided she would be much happier if she didn't wake up, but they needed to get to the palace. 'Only one option,' Logan thought to himself, 'carry Luna home.' Logan reached under her back and lifted her up. Even though she was almost as big as himself, she was light enough to carry. Logan walked down the hall with Luna in his arms, he didn't risk falling down stairs so he used the elevator. As he left the building some ponies looked at him confused as to why a human was carrying the princess of the night, he couldn't blame them. As he stepped outside into the cold air, Luna burried herself deeper into Logan's arms trying to keep warm. As he walked down the streets trying to remember the way back to the palace, Logan thought about what Death had said. 'What is Luna hiding?' Logan thought. Whatever it was, it hopefully wasn't as bad as what he did to those fifth graders. Logan barely remember the day himself, he had made such an effort to forget it. Finally, Logan found the palace. It was going to be hard to explain why he had a princess asleep in his arms he guessed, but then he saw Anvil and Hammer standing outside the gate. Like all the other ponies they gave him a confused stare. As Logan got close to them he whispered, "You're going to find this hard to believe, but I met Death and Luna's tired." The look of confusion didn't leave. "Can I explain everthing tomorrow my arms are getting tired." They didn't look like they were about to object so they lead him to Luna's chambers. They asumed Logan sletp with her, and they thought it was nice she had company. So they closed the door and left after all noone hated Luna, so she wouldn't be in any danger. Logan set her down on the bed and covered her with the blankets, She squeezed them get every comfortable ounce of warmth out. She looked peaceful, so Logan left her an went out onto the balcony looking up at the stars and moon. Logan found that blocking the light of the moon from his eyes opened up more stars. It was calming to gaze at. Just then something caught Logan's eye, something familliar. "Princess Celestia, how long have you been hidding?" Logan asked trying to sound as respectful as posible since he hadn't really met her yet. Celestia flew out from under the balcony and her face told Logan she didn't trust Logan, "I've been watching you ever since you left the hospital," She said flying closer to Logan with the angry look on her face growing, "I demand you tell me what happen at the hopital and you were carrying!" Logan showed no emotion as he spoke, "After you left, Luna got an idea. Your majesty do you remember when you impaled me with your horn." Celestia nodded her head, "Well, Luna is the reason I'm here. A few nights ago when she zap her TV and gave me a magic scar, But there were some side effects. I can control electricity, and when I get hurt the electricity rapidly heals me. That got princess Luna thinking, if I could heal myself with electricity could I heal others. She tested her theory and found she was correct, and upon finding this she demaned that I go to the hospital and heal ponies." "But why were you carrying Luna?" Celestia asked again. "After healing most of the ponies it had been a while, hours of inactivity made her tired so she went up to Rainbow Dash's room to keep her company and sleep in peace. After I had finished healing all the ponies that could be healed, I went up to join princess Luna, but something was..." Logan paused searching for the word, "possessing her." Celestia's scowl increased so much, Logan thought she was going to end his life on the spot. "I got it out and was able to talk to it." "Who was it?" Celestia asked still scowling. "It claimed to be Death," Logan said drawing back, "Death said princess Luna was just sleeping and he was visiting someone called Nightmare Moon." At this Celestia's eyes went wide then they returned to their angry scowl. Logan didn't have time to react to what happened next. He felt something tight in his torso, he tried to scream in pain but failed, his eyes went wide as he realized he was dying fast and what had happened. Celestia once again had impaled him with her horn, there was no wall to stop the horn so it went in his ribs and out his back barely missing his spine. Celestia lifted Logan off the ground, he was about to stuggle but he knew in this possition struggling would just kill faster, but she wouldn't put him down. There was only one thing he could do do get her to leave: fake his own death. Logan stuttered for breath as if it were last then took in a deep breath and slowly let out a third of it to fool her into thinking he just died, finally he stopped moving his eyes and went limp. Celestia's face turned into a satisfied scowl. She pulled her horn out so fast Logan fell and hit the ground on his back arms close but not touching his sides, Celestia looked down on him obviously waiting for something. Logan felt blood on his hands and half way down the back of his legs. Celestia's face returned to her motherly smile and she flew off, once Logan could no long hear the flappping of her wings, he started to crawl on his hands and knees towards Luna's bathroom. He got to her bathroom and tried the nob, locked. There had to be a bathroom elsewhere in the palace. Maybe Anivil and Hammer could help. *** Anivl had been standing outside the princesses chambers when he head a grunt then a thud, he looked at Hammer who said, "You know what those two are doin in there." minutes later there was a knock on the door. "Anvil, Hammer, I need one of you to help me to the bathroom, I'm dying," Logan's voice sounded raspy and incomplete. "Do you really have to go that bad kid?" Hammer asked jokingly. "This isn't a joke," Logan snapped, "I'm dying," both guards lifted and eyebrow, then heard a cough quickly followed by something splattering on the bottom of the door. They looked down and realized a pool of blood was comming out from under the door. Their hearts stopped in terror, they never had seen so much blood. They threw open the door to see Logan on his left hand and knees holding the center of his chest where blood was flowing freely it seemed. *** Logan was annoyed that they would ask such silly question but was greatful when they opened the door. Anvil slung Logan over his back and rushed to the nearest bathroom. "Is Luna okay?" Anvil asked as he let Logan stand up to the sink. "Luna is sleeping like a baby, she didn't hear a thing." Logan said as he started to clean out the wound. "What happened?" Anvil asked. "Celestia got overprotective of her sister and her logic was to kill me. I had to fake my own death." Anvil seemed to flinch as Logan said the last few words. "So she impaled you agian with her horn?!" Anvil asked in disbelief. "You tell me who else can make a hole big enough to see through." Logan said as he began healing the wound. He repaired his internal organs then bones then muscle but ran out of electricity with only a fifth of the skin healed and he was still bleeding, "I'm all out," "Should I get a doctor?" Anvil asked. Logan shook his head, "Just give me som bandage to stop the bleeding and I'll be fine, and don't wake Luna up or she'll flip." Anvil gave Logan the bandage which he wrapped around himself, "You should rest," Anvil said, Logan nooded now noticing how tired he was. They walked back to Luna bedroom and Logan went inside, 'No doubt Anvil will tell Hammer what happened,' Logna thought to himself. He took his shirt off but left his pants on. Logan got into bed belly down he felt too lazy to turn over to his back, 'Hopefully Celestia doesn't do any midday murdering,' Logan thought to himself as he drifted of to sleep. *** Logan woke up and heard shouting, his head was turned away and he still was on his belly but he knew who was shouting. "You had... no right to... to... kill him!" Luna shouted sobbing inbetween words. "He was dangerous!" Celestia said, "It's better that he's dead now." "I ain't dead yet grim reaper," Logan groaned, "and you're the one who's dangerous, is that how you solve problems? shouting and trying to kill others." "You're alive!" Luna sobbed happily, she turned him over with her magic. She rushed over to the side of the bed and gave him a hug. She kept hugging him and wouldn't let go still crying. "Sh-sh-sh." Logan said in a quiet voice trying to calm her down, "It's okay, it's okay, shhhhhh, everythings fine." "I tried... to... wake you up... but you would wake uhuhup... and when Tia told me what she di...did... to you... I thought you were dead!" Luna cried. "I'm not dead I'm fine," Logan said still trying to calm her down. Logan slowly but surely calmed her down to where she stoped crying and she let go of him. "Now can you give me some electricity so I can finish healing myself?" Luna nodded wiping away the tears on her face. "No!" Celestia shouted. Logan put on hand on the wound and the other up to draw electricity. Luna started giving Logan electricity, "Luna stop," Luna didn't listen. Logan finished healing himself and started filling up, he was half way full when Celestia shouted, "Stop it, he's dangerous!" then Celestia did the unthinkable: she pointed her horn at Luna and started charging her magic. Logan saw this and couldn't believe Celestia would do such a thing but he wasn't planning on taking a chance. Logan grabbed Luna and pulled her down on top of him just barely dogding the stream of magic that passed through the air where she just was. Logan looked at Celestia who was charging more magic. Logan rolled Luna of to the other side of the bed got up in front of where she was laying. Logan imagined an electric shield and put his hands up. Celestia fired and the room was covered in dust. when the dust cleared Luna was fine and Logan had a transparent electric shield that had a hint of blue in it. The shield exceeded Logan's expectations, not only did it protect Luna and him but it he could expand it to protect about two more ponies, Logan could also absorb some of the electricity in the magic. The bolt still was just as powerful but Logan just took the bit of electricity out of it. Celestia was charging more magic and the next hit was going to be big. Logan put both hands in front of him and put his right leg in front bent and left leg in back strait. Celestia fired, the force drove Logan a little back but he regained his footing. This was a constant stream of magic, and Logan was putting all his strength into staying up. "THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE DOING!" Logan shouted, "IF YOU KILL ME YOU'LL KILL LUNA!" "LUNA GET OUT OF THERE!" Celestia yelled. "NO! I'M STAYING WITH LOGAN!" Luan yelled back. "FINE I'LL KILL YOU TOO!" Celestia screamed. "THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU JUST SAID!" Logan shouted, "YOU'RE REALLY GOING TO KILL YOUR OWN SISTER?!" At this Celestia stopped her attack and Logan fell backwards onto the bed and Luna wrapped her hoofs around him. "You kill him you kill me," Luna said at this a loo of defeat came to Celestia's face. "Fine," Celestia said and stormed out. Luna closed the blinds and it was pitch black. Logan pulled the covers up over him and felt Luna press up to him. She layed her head on his shoulder, and they fell asleep.
Social stuffLogan woke up and looked around the room. It was bright but the curtains were closed, 'They must have and enchantment that blocks sunlight out and lets moonlight in,' Logan thought. A pony a little taller and similar to Luna was standing on the balcony looking up at the moon. Logan looked to his side and saw Luna was not in bed. "Excuse me," Logan said, "where's Luna?" "I am Luna," the ponies voice sounded much older than Luna, "I have two forms I can switch between, this is my alternate form." Logan gave her a disbelieving stare, the pony changed into Luna then back to the from it once was. "In this form ponies call me Nightmare Moon," the pony said, "but you can just call me Nightmare." "Okay," Logan said swinging his legs over the side of the bed and standing up, "so why did you choose this form?" "Because I feel a little..." Nightmare paused searching for the word, "naughty." Logan's eyebrows shot up at the word, "What do you mean 'naughty'?" Logan asked trying to confirm what she meant. "Do you remember the promise I made if you healed those ponies in the hospital I would give you a gift?" Nightmare asked. "Yeah," Logan confirmed walking over to her on the balcony. "It's time for you gift," Nightmare said seductively turning around and walking towards Logan who was backing up. "Oh I'm fine I have the gift of... knowing I helped so many ponies, yeah," Logan said, Nightmare kept walking, "seriously there's no need for," Logan bumped into the bed on the verge of falling, "I don't think I'm ready to-" Logan was cut off when Nightmare got in his face. "You're ready, we're doing this," Nightmare said pushing onto his back and pinning him, "and you can't stop it." "Oh boy," Logan said. *** I am going to make a Logan x Luna/Nightmare in a separate story. It will be called Promise to the Electric Defender Nightmare had changed back into Luna, she and Logan were in the bed in the relative possition they had fallen asleep in the previous night. Both had a smile on their face, "I'd told you that you were ready," Luna said. "You were right," Logan said, "I admit defeat, even though you did lose some magic," Luna giggled and kissed him and he returned the kiss, "So what do we do now?" Luna put a hoof on her chin and pondered the question. "There are no royal court duties, we could play some Battlepony 3 or work on controlling your powers." she said. "It's your pick," Logan said. "Battlepony 3!" Luna shouted with excitement. Logan and Luna walked over to the TVs and started up the Ponystation 3. "So we going against each other or you afraid I'll wipe the floor with you again," Logan said jokingly. "No," Luna said giggling, "I'd rather have my coltfriend on my side," Luna leaned on Logan shoulder and he ran his fingers through her mane, rubbing her foreleg. "Oooh," "Does that hurt?" Logan asked. "No," Luna said, "it's feels really good," Logan rubbed her back which was hard as a rock. "Ooh hooh yeah," Luna said. "You're all tense," Logan said, "you need a massage," Logan started rubbing Luna foreleg. "Hey Luna?" "Mmm?" she said. "What was life like before I got here?" Logan asked. "Well," Luna thought for a moment, "I didn't have a coltfriend, nor did I have many friends. It's hard to make any when you're royalty and you're awake at night. If there were no royal court duties I would usuallly play Battlepony 3 and sometimes Anvil and Hammer would play with me." "All those other ponies that think royalty is easy are crazy," Logan chuckled and Luna nodded in agreement. "Tomorrow is usually when I get most of my royal court duties." Luna said. "That could be the day I work on my powers. Plus instead of you seeing it at the same time I did, I could work on it, then when you see it you'll see all the good stuff and not the fails I'll inevitably have." Luna burst out laughing Logan pretending not to notice said, "What? What I say?" which only made Luna laugh harder. "Calm down, Luna. How to expect to loosen up when you're laughing?" "Okay downer," Luna said. She layed her head on the bean bag and closed her eyes while Logan began rubbing her back legs, "So what was you're life like," "Well I was just a regular kid, well, no I wasn't," Logan contradicted, "I was the kid that was on the punch line of the jokes, but whenever others had problems they would come to me," "Why?" Luna asked interested to hear the answer. "Because I was the onlyone who would listen and help them, in a way, I was their social worker. I was also a listener, a companion, the one who cared," Logan said. "Give me an example," Luna said. "Well one fresh in my mind was the break up between D.J. and Alysa. When it happened both went to me, D.J. had big problems because he secretly wanted to get back toegether, but the though of her possibly regecting him was haunting his dreams. I told him to say to himself throughout the day 'I will remember this dream' so whenever he had the dream he would remember it was just a dream and he could really weigh other outcomes." "What about Alysa?" Luna asked. "Alysa was extra tricky," Logan said remebering it, "she was not sure of her feelings with D.J. she couldn't figure out what the feelings were. So I had to use a newton's cradle to put her into a semiconscious sleep. It would allow her to explore her mind without doubt. After doing this I discovered that Alysa's parents were the indirect cause of the break up. Alysa's parents were talking trash about D.J. and bringing doubt into her mind about D.J. "So what did you do?" Luna asked. "Well I got D.J.and Alysa to come back and I told D.J. to tell Alysa about the nightmares, and since Alysa understood why the break up happened she told D.J. what flaws her parents pointed out. He swore to change and a few days later they were back together, and they still were when I left. That was months ago." There was a long pause, "I'm sorry for taking you away from your world," Luna said. Logan stopped and Luna looked at him, lowering her head a little understanding she might have hurt him. Logan breathed in deeply, held it, then exhaled slowly. He turned his head in different directions as if he were checking to see if they were alone or to avoid looking at somepony in front of him. Logan looked down and into empty space, "I don't know how to respond to that," he finally said. Luna kept her head down as she glanced at him quickly then looked back down. Logan saw this and knew he had to get away from the problem or else this porblem would plague his dreams. He rubbed her head, she still had her head down, "Hey, I'm fine with it," "You don't mean that, you miss your friends," Luna said. "But I got a better one," Logan smiled, "one I'm comfortable around, one who doesn't complain, and loves me for who I am." The moment was too perfect to waste, Logan planted a kiss on Luna's lips who was suprised because it was the first time Logann had given her a kiss, but then she decided to take the opportunity and returned the kiss. After a shile they broke the kiss. Luna's was happy again her eyes were full of energy, her ears when up, and she was smiling. Logan returned to massaging Luna starting with her front legs. He then moved onto her back hearing a crack every now and then followed by Luna groaning. Then Logan looked at Luna's wings. "How do you massage wings?" Logan asked. "Improvise," Luna said. Logan ended up useing his thumbs insead of palms to massage her wing. They were so large, and so beautiful. "What's it like when you're flying?" Logan asked. "Well it's like... it's kinda... it's..." Luna tried to come up with the answer. "Like when we were sky diving?" Logan asked. "No. It's like being able to go whereever you please and fast while doing as many tricks as you please." Luna said holding a hoof up. "I wish I could fly," Logan said. "Too bad that's imposible." Luna giggled. "Are you making fun of me because I can't fly? I think somepony needs tickling." Logan said with a grin. "I'd rather cuddle," Luna said. "Fine by me." Logan replied as he finished massaging Luna's wings, and lay next to her. Logan started up a Ponystation 3 and started Battlepony 3, Luna had already found a game on operation firestorm so Logan joined her. Luna jumped into a chopper and Logan spawned on her. Immediately they began to lose health, spawn campers. Both Luna and Logan got out, Luna started repairing the chopper and Logan destroyed the chopper with a smaw rocket at the chopper came back for another pass. They got in and Luna flew them off, Logan shot a TV missile getting rid of the enemy support chopper's crew. As soon as Logan's camera view came back Luna crashed into a crane killing them both. "Maybe I should fly." Logan said, Luna nodded. As soon as the chopper respawned they got in. Logan looked up and around to check if anyone was spawn camping again only to find empty air. Logan spotted a tank which Luna began shooting at immediately. They destroyed the tank but then had more problems, the it apeared the entire enemy air force was after them. Logan decided it was time for some obsticals, he weaved through the oil pillars and turned around. The enemy support chopper was hit by a tank in the tail sending it spining into a pillar and in the way of a jet who ran into it killing them both. "Cool," Logan and Luna said. The other jet wasnhit by Luna in the gunner seat she disabled it and the flyer bailed letting the jet spiral into the ground, now it was just the chopper. Logan went back through the pillars many times to no avail then let the chopper out into the open going under it. The enemy took the bait as Logan went under they looked down and Logan came up. He fired rocket into it disabling the chopper it tilted sideways and crashed to the ground. "Awesome!" Luna shouted. They flew aroud for a while before getting killed then Luna jumped intp a tank and logan jumped in with her. When they found and enemy Luna would fire and distract them, if she didn't kill them Logan would. He would jump out and kill them when they hid behind something. They did this for a while then they both got in tanks, which they stayed in for the rest of the game. Luna decided on game was enough and Logan agreed the server did have 300% tickets. "What do we do now?" Luna asked staring blankly at the ceiling. "I don't know you wanna to make out?" Logan said jokingly. "Nah," Luna said, "I got a better idea," there was something in the way Luna said the words that made Logan uneasy. "What do you mean 'better idea'?"
Royal FakerLogan and Luna were outside of Celestia's bed chambers and Luna had the smile of a filly. "Luna, I don't think it's a good idea to prank the pony that hates me the most," Logan said in an attempt to stop Luna. "No way it'll be funny as hell," Luna giggled, she decided to use an old prank. She put a bucket of water over Celestia's door so that when opened fully it would fall on Celestia. "It'll be funny up until the point she lasers me," Logan sighed knowing it would happen. He was about to make another attempt to stop Luna but he heard Celestia moving in her bed chambers. Logan sighed and looked away from Celestia's room, once she opened the door Luna would laugh and give away their position. Celestia would either laser him into the ceiling or down the hall to the open archway and again down the mountain. Logan heard the door open and the splash of water. Luna held her laugh in which surprised Logan, usually a victory against a sibling ended with laughing and chasing. Celestia's mane stayed wet for a few seconds before the heat of it made the water evaporate. She held her anger in and walked away to do royal court duties. "C'mon," Luna said, "I wanna show you something." Luna walked into Celestia's room and Logan followed her in. Luna walked over to a painting of the night sky. "Why does Celestia have a picture of the night sky?" Logan asked. "I don't know," Luna said, "but I do know there is something behind it, and you can't take it off the wall," Logan looked at the painting for something out of place. Blue star, white star, yellow star... pink star? Logan put his finger on an orange star. "Does this represent... Applejack?" Logan said aloud, as soon as he said the name the star began to shine brightly. Luna looked at a yellow star and put her hoof over it. "Fluttershy," Luna said, the star began to shine. Logan put his hand over a pink star, "Pinkie Pie," Logan said and it began to shine. Luna put her hoof on a white star, "Rarity," the star began to shine. Logan put his hand on a cyan star, "Rainbow dash," the star began to shine. Luna put her hoof on the next lavender star, "Twilight Sparkle," There were now six stars shining and all but one other star was gone, but nothing happened. Logan put his hand on the star, 'What did Twilight say she was studying... the magic of-' "Friendship," Logan said, the star began to shine. There was a click then the painting swung open and what Logan saw made him know what was coming next. "EEEEEEHEEHEE TIA'S DIARY!" Luna squealed in a hushed whisper. She grabbed the diary in her magic and opened it to the first page. Which told about the first time Celestia used it a little over two thousand years ago. Luna flipped through pages every day Celestia wrote in her diary and just when Logan thought the pages were about to end more appeared. Logan took the diary and flipped to the last page, 'Strange, the entries stopped two days ago the same day I got here' Logan read the last entry aloud, "Dear diary, the human is arriving tonight I know he's going to lead to another war unless I kill him immediately," Then the entries stopped. He looked through other entries. Celestia's mother is Faust, but she and Luna called her Lauren. Celestia... Attempted suicide after banishing Luna to the Moon?! First royal guard was named Summer Rain, who she mentioned even when he had passed away. Logan handed the diary to Luna who started mumbling something as she flipped through pages. "I knew it!" Luna said, "She does have a crush on Anvil!" "Something's not right, Luna," Logan said, "Celestia wrote in her diary every day and now she just stops. Something strange." "And Tia would never walk away from being pranked with out tickling me." Luna added. They looked at each other and both knew they had to see Celestia. Luna led the way to the royal court, but Celestia wasn't there. They headed toward the library maybe she was reading. Logan drew electricity to his hands experimentally. It was odd he could feel force when he brought enough electricity to the surface. Logan jumped and pointed his hands down, the electricity slowed his decent. 'Bring more to my hands and I might be able to fly,' he thought to himself. He tried but it didn't work, 'I need a force over a larger area,' he thought. Before he could try anything they arrived at the library, but didn't see Celestia. Logan was about to turn away when he heard the sound of books and papers hitting the ground and Celestia cursing. Luna walked into a section that said private causing Logan to stop outside the section, but Luna waved a hoof for him to come with her. She stopped and looked around to make sure no pony was watching. "Things aren't right and I know I won't be able to get Tia to talk but she would always talk with our father," Luna said. "Too bad he's not here," Logan replied. "That's why I need you," Luna said and Logan raised an eyebrow, "I'm going to turn you into a pony temporarily," Luna's horn glowed and a second later Logan lost his balance. He got up and looked at himself in window, his entire body was like the galaxy stars everywhere even on his coat and wings. "How do I look?" Logan asked his voice still the same. "Make your voice calmer more father like," Luna said. Logan spoke in his more less excited voice deeper and calmer just like when he did the hypnosis videos, "How does this sound my lovely daughter?" Luna embraced him in a hug, "Ohhh, you sound just like him, now let's see if it fools Tia." Luna walk around the corner to Celestia, "Tia look who's here," Logan walked out into view but there was no reaction on her face. "Good morning my child," Logan said. "Father?" Celestia asked, Logan nodded, "How have you been, why did you come without telling me?" Luna's expression showed that this was not what Celestia usually did. "Never mind that," Logan said, "I just wanted to check up on you, and remember old times. Do you remember the name of the first guard that served you?" "That was way too long ago to remember," Celestia said. "You still have that crush?" Logan said laughing. "Oh um... no... well... his name," Celestia was stuttering. "Anvil?" Logan asked trying to move her along. "Yes the royal captain," Celestia said yet another question incorrect. "Do you remember you're mother?" Logan asked. "Faust? Yeah I-" Celestia was cut off by Luna. "WE ALWAYS CALLED HER LAUREN! YOU'RE NOT CELESTIA!" Luna screamed. Celestia let out a laugh that didn't sound like her and a ring of green fire enveloped her. Out of the flames came a black pony with green hair, insect like wings, and what disgusted Logan the most were the holes in her, "No point to stay under cover, guards," she said this and two ponies that were similar to her rushed in. "I'm guessing she's not on our side," Logan said. "No," Luna confirmed, "She's Chrysalis, Queen of the changelings," "Should I take care of her?" Logan asked. "No, I'll deal with her," Luna reassured. "Great, more for me," Logan said. "Ha! A human like you could never-" Chrysalis was cut of by the sound of splintering wood. Logan had picked up a small stool and hit a changeling in the side of the head knocking it out. Logan looked at the other changeling who was just about to run but Logan delivered a series of punches to the changelings head, eventually knocking it out as well. His knuckles hurt from this a bit but he didn't complain. "What else you got?" Logan asked. "How about an army?" Chrysalis replied. Logan new he wouldn't be able to defeat all of them but he could make a dent in the numbers. "You going to deal with her?" Logan asked Luna who in response shot Chrysalis out the window with a beam of magic starting the fight. Logan ran out the library and through the castle until he got to the gates to see just what Chrysalis told him an army. Most of them were running around the city, a couple of them were keeping watch outside the city and last few were right in front of Logan with their horns glowing. Before Logan put up his electric shield he estimated how many changelings he would have to deal with. There were about fifty, but remembering how easy it was to take down the other two he face these shouldn't be a problem. Logan put up a light electric shield and the fifty changelings fired, some beams missed, most hit. The beam was only a short shot but it was too much for his light electric shield and it broke sending Logan flying back into the castle. He hit the weak brick walls and made an indent. Logan didn't break any bones but he was sore. "Note to self," Logan grunted, "Just like the Government, never underestimate the power of stupid individuals in large groups," Logan made his way out of the indent and began charging electricity as he caught his breath. Royal guards rushed past him and began to fight the changelings. Each guard seemed to have either a sword or spear, and were very skilled with it. Logan joined the fight and shot the charge he had been holding that jumped between many changelings who all fell to the ground dead. From the fifty changelings only twenty three remained; most had been killed by the guards but Logan counted at least seventeen of them he killed. "Take a break," Logan said to the guards, "I need to absorb some electricity." He ran at one of the changelings and used his momentum to deliver a kick to its leg. The changeling fell over with its leg bent at an odd angle and looked up at Logan. Logan knew that a persons body could hold electricity so he grabbed the changeling's face and dug his fingers in accidentally crushing one of its eyes with his thumb. It screamed in pain for a few seconds before Logan decided to end the Changelings misery. He found all the electricity he could and drew it out of the changeling's body and was enough to fill him back up. The changeling's body when limp and the life faded from its lone eye, he let go of the changeling and blood started gushing from its eye that he had crushed. There were six changelings left and most the guards, after defeating a few more, left to clear out the city. Logan didn't want to have to make a decision when a changeling was coming at him so he attacked first. He shot a bolt of electricity at one changeling making it flinch, he finished the job with an electrified kick to its jaw. Logan heard one coming at him from behind, he spun around only to take a head to the stomach. The changeling charged into Logan and kept going, Logan brought some electricity to his hand and slapped the changeling on the back. The slap made the changeling stop and Logan kept going for another ten feet before landing, the fall had knocked the wind out of him so he tried to crawl away to no avail *Beewooom* the electric charge on the changeling exploded send chunks of the it everywhere. Logan was blew even further back by the close range explosion, he slowly got to his feet as three guards killed the last four changelings. A unicorn guard walked up to him to see if Logan was okay. "What was that?" the guard asked. "A electric explosion that can be placed," Logan said, "I think I'll call it E4," "You need a weapon," the guard said, "fists and feet are not going to work as well as a spear." Logan knew he was right up against a changeling with a sword he would be toast. "There's a problem," Logan said, "do you see any spare weapons that you guards aren't using," "I've got something for you," the guard said and his horn began to glow. READ THIS NOW YOU GUYS GET TO DECIDE WHAT WEAPON LOGAN SHOULD GET. IT MUST MEET THE STANDARDS, NOT TOO BIG OR SMALL, A CLOSE RANGE WEAPON ELECTRICITY IS HIS FAR RANGE, AND PREFERABLY SOMETHING MADE OF METAL. LEAVE SUGGESTIONS IN THE COMMENTS!
Yes! Yes the Blood!There was a flash of light and then it was dark for awhile,"Hello?" Logan asked hoping somepony was there in the darkness. "Hold on," the guard said, "I can't find the light switch." Logan brought some electricity to his hand and a small area became visible, "That's good enough, I think I can see the light switch." Logan heard a few hoofsteps then the room lit up. Logan had to shield his eyes from the sudden bright light, when his eyes fully adjusted to the light his jaw dropped at what he saw. The entire room that the guard had teleported them into was filled with weapons. "Ah, Snow Fort," an elderly voice said. Logan turned around to see an old stallion grinning at Snow Fort. "Good day Furnace," Snow said, "I need your help, this boy has the power to control lightning" "Electricity," Logan corrected him. "Anyways," Snow continued, "He needs a weapon, so he can defend himself," "Well lets find something for him," Furnace declared, the pegasus took out a measuring tape and trotted over to Logan. "Hold out your arms like a bird, or a cross," Logan did as he was told. Furnace measured his armspan, then height, then his weight. "Stand still and pull on this," Furnace indicated to a lever hanging with a scale on it. Logan pulled and Furnace mumbled something and walked out a door, "Follow me," Logan followed Furnace out, along with Snow Fort, into the main shop. A changeling came through the front door, and as soon as it did, there was an arrow in the changelings chest. It colapsed to the ground with out a cry of pain. Logan looked to Furnace who had a bow in his hoofs. Logan was amazed at how fast Furnace had gotten the arrow out, onto the bow, and into the changeling. Furnace picked up a small blade attached to a string and handed it to Logan. "Try this," Furnace said, at that moment another changeling burst through the door. Logan gave it one spin then let go. The blade logded into the changeling's leg and fell out. The changeling let out a yelp of pain and dropped to the floor nursing its wound. Logan had to kill it before the other changlings were alerted. Logan looked around and saw a plastic spoon on the ground, probably left there by a customer. Logan grabbed the spoon and ran to the changeling. He pushed the changeling over, covered its mouth, and drove the spoon into its eye. The changeling was screaming and Logan couldn't cover its mouth very well, so he shoved the spoon into the changeling's mouth in down most of the throat. Logan grabbed the bottom changeling's throat to stop the spoon then pushed the changelings head back. Logan heard the spoon snap and saw the sharp broken ends cut out of the changelings throat. The changeling tried to scream, but only let out a gargling noise with blood blubbling out of its throat. Logan took the body by the leg and dragged it behind a shelf along with the other that Furnace had shot. "Looks like the lad can take care of himself!" Furnace bellowed. "He still needs a weapon," Snow Fort said. "And I think I've got it," Furnace said with confidence, and handed him a small sword, that was small enough to be a knife. Logan usheathed the blade and saw the Snow Fort with a look of awe. It was curved and small but the metal at the sharp of the blade was gleaming and the rest of it was matte black. "It's a katana, but a small one. If you ask me it's more like a large knife," Logan nodded in agreement, the blade itself was less than a foot long. The blade looked to be about eleven inches long. "Its amazing," Snow Fort said, "But he's going to need more than that to protect himself," Logan shook his head as he got an idea. "I'll have an electic blade on the other hand," Logan said, at that moment he heard the door open. He looked to see another guard walked in and looked at Snow Fort. The guard walked to Snow Fort and spoke. "How are you holding up my friend?" The guard asked. "Well enough," Snow Fort said and turned to Furnace to ask a question, Logan didn't hear the question because he heard the sound of a button being snapped open. Logan looked at the guard and saw he had a large knife in his hoof and was looking at Snow Fort with an angry glare. He remembered how Crysalis changed into Celestia and immediately Logan put up and electric shield between the guard and Snow Fort. The guard brought the blade down and it crashed against the electric shield. The contact shocked him and he stumbled back. Snow Fort turned around to see the guard turn into a changeling. "Hey stupid," Logan said, the changeling turned, "Oh you responed to me calling you stupid; therefore your name must be stupid or it must sound stupid," The changeling lunged forward but Logan wasn't ready. Logan had the katana backwards with the blade facing behind him, he put the blade up and was able to stop the changeling's blade from going into his chest, but it went into his shoulder. He gave a grunt of pain and used his left hand to plunge the katana into the changelings chest, he felt the push the changeling had on the blade leave as it stared forward. He pulled out the blade from the changelings chest and took the changelings blade from his shoulder holding it in his other hand. Logan backed up and fell to his knee while the changeling slupmed forward dead and a pool of blood started to form. Now sure that the changeling was dead, Logan fell on to his back, dropped the blades in both hands, and clutched the wound on his right shoulder. "You need medical attention!" Furnace exclaimed. Logan ignored him and began healing the wound. "He's fine," Snow Fort said, just as Logan finished healing his shoulder, he stood up and looked at the two blades. Furnace cast a spell that cleaned of the two blades. Now with a better view, Logan liked the changelings weapon. Squared sharp brass knuckles in front of the handle and the blade was the same length as the katana but the metal was thicker and the blade had a bigger width. "Could you tune up this... uhhhh?" Logan didn't know what the blade was called. "Bowie knife, and already did," Furnace said. Logan looked back at the blade to see it was just clean and looked like new, anything not sharpened was matte black like the katana. "How much do I have to pay?" Logan asked realizing he knew nothing about the currency and had no money. "I'll pay for it," Snow Fort said, "If it wasn't for you I would have that in my head," indicating to the knife in Logan's hand. "What do I do now?" Logan asked. "Find the Elements of Harmony," Logan raised an eyebrow, "Princess Celestia's star pupil and her friends," "How do I do that?" Logan asked. Snow Fort grumbled at his own awnser, "Find a path of destruction, they're always the source of destruction." Logan nodded. "Keep those sheaths, I'll get them after this is over," Logan said, "Nonsense," Furnace said, and he cast a spell and a brown belt was now around Logan waist. He clipped the sheaths to his new belt and ran out the door with the bowie knife in his right hand and the katana in his left. Since he could see all attacks that would be in front, Logan wielded the blades backwards to cover his back and conceal them better. Logan ran down the streets aimlessly hoping to find the trail of destruction Snow Fort had told him to look for. He didn't know where Twilight or the others were staying, the last one of them he saw was... Rainbow Dash! Logan never got to heal her wing, She must still be in the hospital, he thought. There was many problems though, he would probably see more changelings, he had no idea where the hospital was or how to get to it. "Too bad I don't have a GPS," Logan mumbled as he slipped into an alley to catch his breath. As he breathed heavily, Logan peaked around the alley walls trying to notice any buildings that he had seen on the way to the hospital. Unfortunately, there were none that were familiar to him. Then he heard something familiar, a buzzing sound, "changelings," Logan cursed under his breath. Logan looked around for cover and found it in between two dumpsters, the darkness between the two concealed him and the tight space would be a place, Logan hoped, a changeling wouldn't look. He hid and waited, the buzzing got closer and closer, then near him he heard hoofs landing on the ground and the buzzing stopped. He heard some bug-like shouting and then he heard more hoof steps getting closer to him. Logan flipped the katana to a forehand grasp and lowered to a squat and prepared for the first changeling to him. Occupied by each others insults, the Changelings walked right into view; there were only four of them, but Logan waited to see if any of them turned their heads indicating there was more, none did. So there were only four, three of them were hurling insults at each other while one of them was looking around nervously. Logan hoped that the one changeling was to nervous to fight, he could probably injure two of the fighting ones and they hopefully would focus on the pain instead of the fight. Logan sprinted out of his hiding spot and at the group of three. It only took a second to reach them and Logan ran between the nearest two changelings he thrust the katana into the left changelings back. The changeling on Logan's right turned to see what the other was screaming about, only to end up screaming as well from the bowie knife Logan had slashed his chest with. Logan withdrew the katana from the changeling's back and switched his bowie knife to a forehand grasp. Now in reach of the changeling he had slashed, he thrust the knife into the changelings lower ribs. It colapsed, putting its hoof over anything that hurt. Logan looked at the third changeling that had been throwing insults, it was just standing still, shocked at what had just happened. Snapping itself out of its trance it hissed at Logan drawing a sword. Logan wished he had seen that before, the changeling held the sword in its hoofs ready to kill. Logan stepped foreward and swung the katana to the side aiming for the changelings lower neck, but it was ready swinging the sword to its right mirroring the swing. The two blades conected but the changelings sword was heavier and Logan's katana came out of his hand clattering on the ground far behind him. Logan cursed to himself for not taking the weight of the weapon into account. Logan had to get an opening, he swung his bowie knife mirrored to the katana swing and the changeling went to meet the blade, but Logan changed course. He backed away and the raging changeling swung past him with the heavy sword, Logan quickly flipped the knife back to the backhanded grasp and slammed the knife into the changeling's side. Filled with rage the changeling turned around holding the sword over his head standing on his rear hoofs. Logan took the opening and kicked the changeling in the stomach, the changeling dropped the sword flailing its front hoofs to regan balance. He grabbed the changeling by the shoulder and cut in between the shoulder and neck. The changeling screamed which meant Logan hadn't cut far enough. He dislodged the bowie knife and swung again this time turning the scream into a gargle of blood. Logan looked at the other changeling to see a look of hatred in its eyes, Logan needed it to fear him. Logan took one more swing and cut the changelings head fully off. He threw it to the ground and kicked it at the other changeling who barely caught it. The changeling turned to head around to see the face and a look of sheer horror, then blood began dripping out of changelings neck but more than just blood came out. Because Logan kicked the head it broken the bones in the head, the brain fell out. The changeling threw the head and vomited at the same time. After a few times the changeling stopped puking and when it looked back, Logan was nowhere to be seen. It wondered where the human had gone but knew where when it felt a icey blade on his neck. "Now you're going to answer my question or you'll end up like your friend," Logan said. The changeling spoke but it sounded very buzzy. "What is it?" The changeling asked. "Where is the hospital?" "Out the side of the alley behind me go right, at the second intersection go left then one more right," the changeling directed. "Thanks sorry I had to kill your friends," Logan apologized. "Those wern't my friends they were actually criminals the queen recruited. They were probably going to kill me, you did me a favor." "What are you going to do when I release you?" Logan asked. "Take a nap," the changeling casually replied, "I'm to tired to.. to..." Before he could finish his sentence he faded into sleep. Logan dragged the changelings body his previous hiding place and set off for the hospital.
DevastationIt took Logan ten minutes to get to the hospital, he constantly had to duck into alleys and shops because of the changelings flying over and in the city. As he worked his way to the hospital he kept telling himself "If they don't expect anything to be there chances are they won't see anything at all," and the theory held up to the hospital. Now at the hospital Logan doubted that anyone was in the building at all. It reminded Logan of a horror scene or a haunted hospital, and guessing by the looks it could very well be haunted soon. The front desk was in ruins, papers were everywhere on and near the desk. Chairs varied in damage only one looked untouched others were either broken partially or completely destroyed, a few had the foam stuffing in them those that didn't had theirs hopelessly scattered aroud the lobby. Then something caught Logan's eye, but he wished it hadn't, blood. More injured ponies must have come after I left, Logan thought, But how many came. Logan knew he didn't want to find out, but he had to. As he stepped towards the hallway more blood became visible. Logan looked down at his feet until he was facing down the center of the hallway. Logan looked forward and felt his heart skip a beat then race. Dots of splattered blood covered areas on the walls, floor, and ceiling. Most of those areas were near trails of blood that went from one room to the next, the hallway into a rooms, and blood trails ending in the hallway with a dead body in a puddle of blood. Logan walked down the hallway glancing into rooms to check for survivers but there were none, nopony was spared. Logan walked up to the next floor and went up the hall and back before going up to the next floor and doing the same. Logan tried his best to keep from screaming as he passed bodies of ponies, one room on the last floor caused him to investigate further. Even though the last floor was had the most bodies in the hallway one thing stood out. A wheel chair was outside the room with a trail of blood leading from the chair into the room, inside a mare's dead body was face down at the end of the trail but there was more. Two young ones, a newborn and filly, were dead, both with the legs of a hospital bed through their heads. Logan heard a noise from a closet, he opened it to find a colt on the verge of death. The colt tried to say something but it was to fast. "Shhhhh," Logan said trying to calm the colt down, "say it slow." "The changelings they... came and... killed everypony," the colt said gasping for air, "They kept talking... about a spell or curse," "What was the curse?" Logan asked. "They kept saying something... before they killed us," the colt responded. "What was it?" Logan asked. "They kept saying... that we would... we would... we would" the colt started sobbing. "No don't cry," Logan said, "What did they say?" The colt spoke, "They kept saying... that we would... rise again," and the colt died. Logan felt tears starting to form in his eyes, and he decided it was right to let them flow freely. He exhaled a shudering breath and got up, wiping the tears out of his eyes and off his face. He left walking slowly to Rainbow Dash's room trying to ignore the more than ten bodies that littered the hall, when he got there Rainbow Dash was not on the bed. The room was a mess but there was no blood, even the blood from when Rainbow Dash cried blood was gone. "Rainbow?" Logan called out, "It's me Logan," he heard something shuffle under the bed then noticed a head poking out under the bed with a relieved smile on it. Rainbow Dash came out from under the bed and galloped to Logan giving him a hug. "Are you okay?" Logan asked trying to pull away from her but to no avail, he got no answer but didn't need one as he could feel her tears begining to wet his shoulder, "I'm going to heal your wing, okay." "Okay," Rainbow said, her voice trembled with trauma and fear. Logan grabbed her wing still in the embrace and began to heal it. "Are you hurt?" Logan asked starting to use his calming voice. "My wing, duh," Rainbow said giggling a little. "Rainbow, you don't have to answer this next question if you don't want to. I found one colt barely alive, and before he died he told me the changelings said that they, the ponies, would rise again. Do you know what they meant?" "They probably meant that they would go to a happy place in the after life, it has been said it's like living again." Rainbow said guessing. "I'll ask Luna after this is over, but right now we need to get out of here and find those element things," Rainbow Dash nodded reluctantly. Logan led Rainbow Dash to out the door but only two feet out he stopped and a chill of terror ran up his spine like no other from what he couldn't find. He stopped Rainbow Dash from going on. "What's wrong?" Rainbow Dash asked annoyed, "There's no changelings to attack you and me," "It's not the changelings that I'm worried about," Logan said and Rainbow Dash gave him a confused look, "When I went down the hall to your room the hall was littered with bodies," Rainbow Dash turned to him confused, "So," "Look aound," Logan said, "Now there's not a single body in sight," Logan was right, every single body that he passed was gone with out a trace. "It's like they just got up and left," Logan added as he glided down the hall with both his blades out. He walked slow ly checking every room for more bodies but they were gone, all of them. Logan looked into the room he found the half dead colt in, but there were no bodies. The colt was gone, the mare was gone, even the infant and filly, who had bed legs through their heads, were gone. Logan resisted the urge to jump out the nearest window or runing as fast as he could down the stairs. He walk to the bed and tried to lift it which was an easy task. "But how could a dead body go missing?" Logan asked himself out loud. He turn back to Rainbow Dash but she was gone, Logan walked into the hall and saw her staring into the stairway with a look of terror. Logan ran to her, "What wrong?" "Look in the stairs," Rainbow said and Logan walked into the stairs, "The changelings said they would-" Logan held up his had to stop her. He illuminated the entire stair ceiling and wall covered with the missing bodies. One of the bodies open it's eyes then another then all of them studying Logan. Their stare was lifeless and hungry, "Rise again," Logan said understanding. One of them open it's mouth slowly and made a small noise the others turned to Logan with a look of an animal ready to kill. They opened their mouths. Logan yelled at Rainbow Dash and grabbed her runing down the stairs "Run!" the dead bodies replied, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Logan and Rainbow Dash jumped down the small opening in the middle of the stairs and landed on the ground floor with a thud. As they ran to the exit, Logan came to the conclusion that the bodies were no longer dead but were partially living. The fact sent chills up Logan's spine, they were the undead the nearly unstopable: real zombies. Raimbow dash tried to open the door but it wouldn't budge. "It won't open!" she screamed. Logan looked down the hall to the door leading to the stair, but it was dead silent. "It's quiet," Logan said, "Too quiet," the zombies poured out of the door heading at Logan and Raimbow Dash faster than a full sprint. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE the zombies screeched in unison, "Now it's too loud!" Logan put up an electric barricade, but the zombies didn't care they slammed straight into it. and started thrashing at the wall of electricity. "Buck that door open!" Logan yelled as he looked at the zombies not even taking notice to the fact that the wall was zapping them every time they hit it. Logan saw the colt he talked to thrashing and screaming trying to break the electric wall. Next to him were the infant and filly that were under the bed. Suddenly the infant tried using its head to hit the electric wall once, twice, and on the third time its head ripped off from its shoulders, but it was still alive. The zombie filly looked at the headless body and picked up the head trying to put it back on as the head looked at Logan and made chewing motions. After lerning that she couldn't put the head on the body again, she screamed and immediately the zombies stopped attacking the electric wall looking at the head and body. Then the zombies attack started again but this time on the body and head, they stared eating it. In less than ten seconds the entire infant was devoured, and they resumed their attack on the electric wall. Then from the wild punches came a beam of magic, but it was from a zombie. "They're getting smarter." Logan said in terror. He increased the shield as the attacks got harder to stop. "Rainbow is the door open?" "It still won't open!" She screamed, then Logan got an idea. "Get away from the door!" Logan yelled, Rainbow didn't argue, "Run!" Logan fired a gigawatt hammer at the door which exploded on impact. Rainbow Dash ran out the door but stopped and called for Logan. "Let's go!" Rainbow screamed. "If these things bite anyone what do you think will happen to them?" Logan said then continued without an answer, "They get completely eaten or turned into zombies! The colt said it was a spell or a curse." "I'll find Twilight!" Rainbow declared, "She'll know what to do!" with that Rainbow Dash became a blur as she took off into the sky. Logan turned his attention back to the zombies hitting and now firing magic beams, Logan felt something going empty his electricity. He could feel the shield fade as he ran out of electricity, until the wall of zombies broke through. The zombies came at him at a full sprint and one of them took a swing just early missing him before he started running. Logan thought it really couldn't get worse, zombies that lived even without a head, never got tired, and could learn. Logan ran out the door and decided to head back to the changeling that was in the alley, he hoped the changeling knew how to get rid of the zombies, because if he didn't get rid of them soon he would either go on the longest run ever, or he would be their next meal. Logan needed a way to push the zombies back with out using a great majority of his electricity. A shockwave or something just to delay them, or throw them back. Logan turned into an alley planning to double back stalling time to grab any electricity in the air, which he already had started doing when he left the hospital, but was so far only an eighth full. As he went through Logan noticed how narrow it was, it could only fit two at a time so would take the zombies a long time to work their way through, at least that was his logic. He turned around to make sure check his logic, the zombies swarmed the alley, it was only wide enough for two but the zombies climbed on top of each other, they all stopped for a moment and looked at Logan. "Shit." EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE the zombies started again, and Logan ran again checking how much power he had, a little over half. The zombies must contain electricity Logan thought. He slowed down to the zombies and he felt more electricity filling him up completely. Now the zombies were close, Logan was about to tire out, and Rainbow Dash hadn't brought Twilight back yet. He had to push the zombies back, or else he was going to be a snack.
InterrogationLogan charged electricity in his hands and vocal cords, wanting to try something else. He turned into and alley and caught his breath, it might be his last after those zombies turn into the alley. The moment seemed to be closing in quickly with the calling anouncement of the zombies rage and anger, Like a train before impact, Logan thought. As the first zombie came into the alley Logan took in a deep breath, and yelled, "Fus Ro Dah!" The electricity in his vocal cords fused with the outward sound and spread out. The vocalized electricity only reached three of the zombies knocking them off ballance "Aw Skyrim!" Logan yelled, "Why you no tell truth!" The zombies all pause to investigate their three fallen friends giving Logan time to get closer to them. As the three zombies all got to their feet Logan put his hands together and spread them outward as he thrust his hands forward and released electricity. The result was an moving circle of electricity about six feet high and six feet wide. It covered ground quickly and reached the zombies giving better results. The zombies were sent flying backwards some gaining ten feet of air and some started to use their wings to fly. "Oh not good," Logan said to himself, "I helped them learn magic and flying, I am such a moron." At that moment a flying zombie pegasus dove at Logan who barely dogded it. The zombie slammed into the wall head first with such impact that the head burst and the brain lay barely connected to the stuggling body, but Logan noticed something strange on the brain. The entire brain was a light pink, but on the front was a lone gray chunk that was throbbing. Logan took a wild guess at what it was, he brought out his bowie knife and stabbed it into the gray chunk and immediately the zombie stopped moving. He was glad that he had found the heart so to speak, but there were about one hundred more zombies to put out of their misery, if they had any emotion besides anger. Logan looked at the zombies each had an angry scowl on its face, nope just anger. Logan ran out the alley and back towards the weapons shop, but stopped when he saw Twilight and her friends gallop out onto the street. "There you are," Twilight said stopping in front of Logan, "Rainbow Dash said you needed..." the zombies ran out the alley and gave a unison blood curdling screech, "...Help!" They all took off in one direction following Logan, Twilight caught up to him but Logan needed no questions. "Their life support system is all on a disease on the front of their brains." Logan said. "Maybe they're actually friendly," Twilight said hopefully. "Nope!" Called Pinkie who was galloping backwards with a pink cannon in her forehoves. "Pinkie ah don't think yer party cannon is gunna..." Applejack's sentence was cut off by Logan. "What's it loaded with?" Logan asked. "Nails!" Pinkie replied excitedl "Don't fire yet," Logan said, he ran back to Pinkie and put his hand on the cannon. He put E4 on each nail he could find. and Pinkie fired. The result was devastating, half the zombies were dead and others were slowly moving because the nails ripped limbs off. The zombies that live went to their fallwn friends and began devouring them starting at the head, wrong choice. BEEEEWWWWWMMMM the E4 attached to the nails exploded blowing the feasting zombies to bits. Not a single zombie was left. The six mares jumped with joy, Logan guessed that was probably what they did every time they accomplished something. Their celebration stopped when from the zombies' pieces started forming into black smoke, Logan and the other mares looked to Twilight, but she too had a confused face. "Now that we're no longer in danger of becoming zombie chow," Logan continued, "I would like to bring up a few questions. Where is Celestia? How are we going to clear the entire city? And where is Luna?" "We'll clear it like we did last time," Fluttershy said, "That is if the Elements of Harmony don't work." "As fer Luna," Apple Jack cut in, "She can handle Crysalis." "But where's Princess Celestia?" Pinkie asked. The other ponys put their heads down, some in thought others in defeat. Logan broke the silence, "Well, if you need enemy info, just interrogate them." "But how are we supposed to get changelings?" Fluttershy asked. "Got it covered," Logan said bringing crackling electricity to his hands. He looked to the sky and stopped for a moment. They sky was dark not only because it was still night time but the sky was filled with changelings, making the ground below even darker. "Okay maybe I don't," Logan said, realizing he didn't have the time to figure out how his electricity was going to reach that high. "I got some! I got some! I got some!" Pinkie chanted as she bounced around a pile of five limp changelings. "Where'd you get those?!" Logan blurted out. "It's Pinkie," Rainbow Dash cut in, "You don't question the laws of Pinkie Pie." Logan saw she had a point, plus for a pony who laughs while being chased by zombies it was believable. Logan pulled one unconscious changeling over each shoulder, then turned to Twilight. "Are there any interrogation chambers in this place?" Logan asked. Twilight shook her head, "Are there any places with chairs, ropes, and piss poor lighting?" "Plenty if you just look," Twilight said walking into an alley. She looked around along the walls until her eyes rested on a dumpster which became surrounded by Twilights purple magic. She moved the dumpster to the side revealing a metal door with a sliding box for one to peak through. There was a click then a turn of gears and the door swung open. Twilight went in and the rest followed, Logan felt his way down realizing he was on stairs. Three stairs down Logan felt something on the wall, he felt it and moved something. The stairs were illuminated, a pleasant mood was in the air until the rest of the stairs were visible with no bottom in sight. "This might be real torture," Logan said exhausted at the thought of going down such a tremendous number of stairs. His mood change after he saw a smooth dumpster lid, he grabbed it and put it on the stairs then jumped on. Logan slid down the stairs bumping into the six ponys who landed on the lid with Logan. "WHEEEEE!" cried Pinkie, Logan couldn't agree more,but there was a problem. After a few minutes they sitll hadn't reached the bottom. Logan looked back and saw the door was right behind them. They weren't moving the stairs were. Logan looked at the ponies who also seemed to notice the same thing, Applejack in the back reached up and twisted the door handle. As soon as she did the stairs went flat and turned into a floor so they stopped moving. Applejack went halfway through the door and then waved her hoof to signal it was safe. The six ponies went in then Logan, but they were not outside they were in a large room which seemed to be a barn guessing from the hay that lay everywhere. The room was mostly dark, lit in small places only be the dimness of a small light. The room had an uneasy feeling to it like something was always there with you just out of sight. A musty dank smell filled the air makeing it a little harder to breathe. Here and there were chairs some completely broken most in a good enough condition to use and could still take a beating. Fluttershy grabbed five chairs and Applejack took out some rope. Twilight used her magic to tie up the changelings in chairs in a line. "Who's going to interrogate them?" Rarity asked aloud. Everypony looked to Logan. "What are you looking at me for?" Logan asked already knowing the answer. "You're the only intemidating thing here plus you have knives," Fluttershy said. "What if you ponies tried?" Logan brought up. Rainbow Dash answered in a tired tone, "Rarity would woosy out, Fluttershy would pet them, Applejack would try to heard them, I would do nothing, Twilight wouldn't be good at it, and Pinkie would give them cupcakes. Any more questions smart ass?" Logan and the ponies were shocked at Rainbow's tone but she was right, Logan was the only one who could do it. "You'd better leave," Logan said, "It's going to get prety ugly once they wake up," Twilight nooded and led the six of them out leaving Logan to wait for the changelings to wake up. Logan walk to a dark corner and sat down staring at the unconscious changelings. Logan knew he had to get information out of the changelings as fast as possible, and the best medod would be to scare the hell out of them. Then Logan got an evil idea, looking on the walls and ceiling he saw there were large nails close together. Immediately Logan's thoughts went to climbing on the wall. Negative charged and positive charged electricity could hold him, and as he learned from movies, nothing likes the sight of something not giving a damn about gravity in an unnatural position. Logan sent out negative charged electricity to the nails then brought positive charged electricity to his hands and feet. Testing it, he put his hand on the nail and it worked, it was heavily magnetized. He brought his other hand then feet and began to climb taking away the positive charge momentarily to move his hand or foot. He got to the ceiling and heard a noise, the changelings were waking up. One shook its head as it looked around, "Hey wake up guys," it said until all the other changelings were awake, "What happened?" One said, "Where are we?" another said. One of the changeling under Logan slowly looked up and saw him. Logan looked back staying still for a few seconds. Then he slowly opened his mouth and began to shake his head. The changeling started to utter small quiet sceams then Logan stopped moving. The changelings stayed silent fearing what would happen next. Logan tilted his head and slowly cracked his neck then uttered two words in a demonic tone, "Feeding time," The changelings erupted into mass panic screaming as they watched Logan quickly climb down from the ceiling to the wall and onto the floor where he stood up and walked over to the terrified changelings. Logan took out his bowie knife and put it up to one of the changeling's throat making them all fall into silence. He looked from changeling to changeling as if inspecting them then said, "This isn't a very good meal," Logan took the knife away from the changeling's throat then went on, "Tell you what, you want to live right," Logan waited as each changeling slowly nodded, "So if you can tell me where to get a better meal, I'll let you go." "How about the six ponies that use the elements of harmony?" one said. "No, I have to work to kill them and I need a meal all in one pony." Logan said. "I know a pony that will make a meal fit for a god." another said "Oh really!" Logan said pretending to be suprised. "Princess Celestia, she's trapped in the ceiling of the main hall in the palace." Logan had the information he needed so he went over to the changeling and punched it with the brass knuckle part on the handle knocking it out. "You said you'd let us go," one protested. "I did, and I am." Logan cut the ropes of the unconscious changeling, "This one will untie you after he wakes up." and with that Logan walked into the shadows and out the door. SORRY FOR THE WAIT LOTS OF HOMEWORK HEY IF YOU GUYS WANT IT TO GO FASTER JUST MAKE RANDOM COMMENTS START AND ARGUMENT OR CONVERSATION IN THE COMMENTS. THE MORE COMMENTS I SEE THE MORE I WORK ON CHAPTERS
The RiddleLogan opened th the door and walked into the stairs, he then closed the door and opened it again expecting the alley, but only saw a dark concrete walled room with six ponies who Logan knew were Twilight and her friends. Fluttershy spotted him and gasped with a smile of delight. "Why aren't we back in the alley?" Logan asked to the six ponies. "This was no normal door, it had a spell on it." Twilight said. "What kind of spell?" Logan asked confused. "One that changes locations from some sort of pattern or mood." Twilight said in an attempt to explain. "Well then It's time for some trial and error," Logan said, "Because sitting here isn't going to do anything." "Error?" Twilight repeated, "We can't have error, it isn't right!" "Twilight to do something right you must try other things and find out what is wrong so you can get it right next time," Rarity elaborated. Twilight opened her mouth to protest but nothing came out as she looked around in defeat. "Fine," Twilight said, "We'll try it your way, but we need to get to Princess Celestia," Twilight paused, "Where is she?" "She's stuck in the ceiling of the main hall in the palace," Logan replied then Pinkie started laughing. "That sounds silly," She said. "Silly er not we gotta git outta here," Applejack said leading the way out the door. "But what if something bad happens?!" Twilight snapped back. Logan was getting tired of standing still they had to get moving, or there would be no one to get Princess Celestia out. Logan spoke, "Twilight, if we don't go something bad will happen. Princess Celestia will never get out of the ceiling, Princess Luna might not get help to defeat Chrysalis, and the city will fall." Twilight's eyes went wide finishing the dreaded conclusion Logan was coming to. "And if the capital, Canterlot, falls... all of Equestia falls with it." Twilight finished. The mood in the room seemed to change very dark with the gravity of the situation now in mind. Even Pinkie carried a grim expression on her face. Surprisingly, it was Fluttershy who broke a long silence with determination in her voice. "Well we better do something before something bad happens," Fluttershy said. The other five ponies and Logan nodded. Suddenly the door began to shine, Twilight had a large grin on her face as the doors light died down. "I think the door is going to let us leave!" Twilight exclaimed. She opened the door with her magic and they all raced inside. Logan looked around as they ran but saw nothing; darkness was everywhere except ahead where there was dim light. As they ran into the light Logan's face developed a look of horror as recognized the location they were now in. It was the crater Logan had made landing in Equestria. They were on the rim of it, and now that Logan saw the full size of the crater, he now understood the damage he had done. In some moives Logan had seen bombs would create craters fifty feet deep and wide. The crater Logan had made was more than he had been able to see. The crater looked to be half a mile in diameter and just over a quarter mile deep; however, the crater was not a perfect hemisphere the inner crater was flat for a a quarter mile radius then went up at a steep incline. Logan couldn't grasp the fact that just him and his backpack could cause such great destruction. Cool wind caught the tips of the trees and stooped down into the crater bringing ash into his face. He stepped forward, sliding down the steep incline at the edge of the crater. Logan stopped himself on a farily flat part of the crater and looked at the ash ground. All through the crater ash was present but not a sign of life was visible. Logan began to dig, trying to find fertile soil, but soon gave up in a depressing defeat. It was then that he noticed Fluttershy stood in front, with sorrow on her face. "What's wrong?" Fluttershy asked in her quiet tone. "I did this," Logan said. "So what?" she replied. "Look around," Logan said not looking up, "There isn't a single sign of life. No animals, no plants, and not a hint of soil that wasn't burned to ash. I did this... destruction. What if everything you first thought about me was right? What if I always just end up destroying? Life, freedom, happyness, destroyed in the end." "Well it's certainly okay to destroy some of the Everfree Forest." Fluttershy said her tone becoming brighter. "How is it okay to destroy nature?" Logan questioned his tone becoming darker. "Well ya see, the Everfree Forest isn't so natural," Applejack chimed in. "How is it not natural?" Logan asked. Applejack's face twisted in small fear, "The plants grow." "Animals care for themselves," Fluttershy added. "And the clouds move-" Rainbow began "All on their own!" the three finished together. Logan looked at them raising one eyebrow and spoke, "Seems pretty natural to me." There was a silence that hung for a moment before the six ponies jaws went slack. "How does that seem natural?!" Rainbow burst out. "There's nothing out of the ordinary," Logan replied, "Where I'm from, that's how nature is." "How?" Twilight asked. "Each can be explained," Logan said, "Clouds move because the wind pushes them. Plants and animals adapt to survive in the area they live in; ever heard of the expression 'Survival of the fittest'." Logan could see that here nature worked a different way. "Your world is messed up!" Pinkie shouted. "Look at it from my perspective!" Logan shouted back, "Your world is messed up! In my world we don't have unicorns or pegasus, we have ponies but their coat is black, white, or brown. They arn't crazzy colors like pink or rainbow and they don't talk!" Logan realized he had gone out of control when he heard Fluttershy began to cry. He went over to her and wat down, "I'm sorry Fluttershy. I just let my stress get the better of me, I didn't mean to make you cry." "Nopony takes care of the animals." Fluttershy sobbed. "Well we sort of do," Logan said, "We make rules to protect the animals' homes from being destroyed. Some of us even keep them as pets." "What kind of animal do human have as pets?" Fluttershy asked wiping her eyes. "Some people, like me, have cats. While others have dogs. There are, however, a few people that go with different kinds of animals like birds, lizards, and other exotic animals." Logan left Fluttershy to wander in her thoughts about the animals. He wandered further into the crater, but didn't see anything that would have made him feel better. Finally he found the center, maked by a disturbed patch of ash. Ahead of the center were hoofprints no doubt made from Twilight, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash. Once again he felt sadness knowing he destroyed so much life. With tears coming into his eyes he sat down looking at the ash ground. Then he noticed there was a different print that he almost sat on. The print looked like it was from a claw and whatever made it was big judging by how deep the print was. Suddenly the was a chuckle that seemed to come out of thin air "You ponies are so much fun. Ahhaha!" Logan turned to Twilight for an answer, but saw that the six ponies were backing away from him. They arn't backing away from me, they know I'm a friend. Then that means what ever they're backing away from is... behind me. Logan jumped foward and spun around to see a figure looming over him. It was a creature with all different body parts. Head of a pony; horns, left of a goat, right of a deer; body of a snake; arms right was a paw, left was like a chicken foot in the form of a hand; a right dragon leg; left pony leg; and a scaly tail. It also had a beard, one fang, and yellow eyes with red in the center. "My god, you are one ugly motherfucker," Logan muttered unsheathing his blades both in a backhanded grasp. The creature didn't see him, its attention was focused on the six ponies, "Discord? That's imposible! You should be in stone!" Twilight exclaimed. "Oh but I am," Discord said flaring out his wings. His left a pegasus wing, his right a bat or dragon wing. "But in this spirit realm I can do what I please... with limmitations of course." "Spirit realm?" Rainbow repeated. "Yes, yes, after ponies die you come here, or you can get here by magic or being turned to stone." Discord explained rolling his hand. "Recently this big thing showed up but nopony knows how," Discord finished gesturing to the crater they were in. "You know who did it!" Applejack yelled. "Sorry, but here I'm nearly powerless," Discord said, "But guessing on the presence of magic lingering here I'm going to say... Celestia got mad." Discord errupted into a fit of laughter. "I wouldn't joke about it if I were you," Pinkie cut in. "Why?" Discord asked wiping away a tear. "You'll make him mad," Pinkie said in a dark voice. Discord was stopped from a pronoun, "Him?" "Suprise," Logan said his bowie knife at Discord's neck. He had climbed up Discords back while he was laughing. "Well done!" Discord said, "But you can kill in the spirit realm. Score one for Discord!" Logan whacked Discord on the top of the head who threw his hands on his head in pain. "You can still cause pain in the spirit realm. Score one for Logan!" Logan jumped off Discord who rubbed his sore head, "So, anypony want to tell me why Canterlot is in ruins?" "Chrysalis attacked, and imprisoned Princess Celestia." Twilight said, "A changeling told us that she's in the ceiling." "They're lying." Discord said, "A queen would not tell her subjects the actual location of something, only a near location. That way you'll be searching for something that's not there but you'll be near enough attract the enemy's attention. Besides, I know where she is." "How? You didn't even know what was attacking Canterlot." Logan pointed out. "Ah! After years of seeing the palace you notice when something changes," Discord laughed "Tell us where she is!" Twilight shouted. "Why should I?" Discord asked "Because if you don't there won't be any ponys to make you laugh." Twilight said with a smirk. "Fine but I'll tell you but my way." Discord said quickly. "Not another riddle." Pinkie groaned. Discord cleared his throat and his next words seemed to echo, "Here and there and all throughout Magic played roles with out a doubt. But sides must be chosen in this world and through out history this still shows. To find your princess you must see both sides to see through the tinted vision of the one who knows." A bright light enveloped them all, then darkness followed.
A Cold PrisonLogan awoke slowly, his eyes opened as he took in a deep breath; streching his arms and legs. He wriggled around getting the blood to flow through his body quicker. Judging on how stiff he felt Logan esimated he had been out for hours. Last thing he remembered was a bright flash and something before that. Then Discord's words echoed in his head. Here and there and all throughout Magic played roles with out a doubt. But sides must be chosen in this world and through out history this still shows. To find your princess you must see both sides to see through the tinted vision of the one who knows. Propping himself up on his elbows he looked around to see the six ponies. Logan got up and walked over to Applejack, shaking her lightly to wake her up. "Applejack," Logan whispered shaking her, "Wake up." Applejack snapped up. "Ah wasn't being lazzy ah was just takin' a quick nap!" She shouted waking up the other five mares who started complaining, "Sorry y'all." "Apologies will have to wait, girls," Twilight said, "We need to find Celestia," "And by the looks of it, we're in the palace," Rarity continued, "In the hall with the picture windows that lead to the elements." A loud crash of doors opening interupted them. Through the door came Chrysalis with changelings flanking her. A devious smile remained on her face though Logan could see suprise in her eyes. "I'm not entirely sure how you got here," Chrysalis began, "But it doesn't matter, I won." "But Luna..." Logan began. "Is once again back in the moon, locked away for eternity." Chrysalis laughed Logan could feel his anger boiling, but he quickly submerged it, "You win when hell freezes over," "Every gaurd has been defeated and I control all Canterlot," Chrysalis said. Logan unsheathed his blades but he soon found he was gripping nothing. He looked back over to Chrysalis to see his blades suspended in a green bubble of magic. "I'm gonna pound you into a pancake," Logan threatened. "With what?" Chrysalis said half laughing. Logan held up his fists "Hungry?" Logan asked, "Cause I can make you a knuckle sandwich if you are." "You can't beat me with your puny hands, and there are no stools or chairs to help you now," "Tell it to my ass," Logan said, "It's the only one that gives a crap." "Face it you've lost," Chrysalis said. Logan put his open hands out in front of him, and drew electricity to the surface, "Like I said, I won. Surrender and you deaths will be..." Chrysalis's last word was cut of by a loud bang that filled the hall. Logan fired a burst of electricity into the crowd of changelings several lay dead the shock stopping their heart, others stood up, wobbling a bit as they tried to keep their ballance. Chrysalis was the only one who hadn't fallen. "What... was that?" She said tremor in her voice. "That," Logan started, "Was a taste of the pain you're about to experience." "But you don't have any weapons!" Chrysalis shouted. "I already have one built in," Logan said. "Destroy him, my changelings!" Chrysalis ordered. The last of the changelings charged Logan, who knew they were to far apart to send another mass shock through. So he put up a small electric bubble shield. The changelings piled on quick. The ones who were the bottom of the pile touched the electricity and were killed. Others that were far under were crushed from the weight of their fellow changelings. Logan rapidly expanded the electric bubble, the sudden g-force crushed the changelings in the middle and flung the ones on the top away from him. The changeling above him flew so high it was impaled by the sharp stone structures of the ceiling. Blood immediately began to flow down and onto Logan, soaking his shirt and pants. One of the changelings had flown over to Applejack, but she didn't need protection. She bucked the changeling high into the air, but Logan wanted to make sure it would die. He shot a sharp string of electricity that went clean through the changeling. Logan wasn't done, he expanded the tip into a circle and pulling the electric string brought the changeling back to the ground with a small depression that quickly filled up with blood and hid the body. With only Chrysalis standing, an erie hatred hung in the air, like the fog that fills the air in the morning after a humid night. Chrysalis stood straight, a calm look on her face even though panic could consume her at any given moment. Logan stood knees bent and low, electricity sparking in his hands, ready for an attack. "So where's Luna?" Logan asked again. "She's back where she belongs," Chrysalis said, "In the moon." "What?" Logan said still confused. "She trapped Luna in the moon!" Twilight shouted, "A spell like that can only be undone by Celestia, we've got to find her!" "You do that, I've got Chrysalis," Logan said, "Let's finish this. Avenge the changelings I killed, their blood is on my hands. So come get me you ugly fucker!" This sent Chrysalis's anger boiling over and she fired a beam of magic. Logan put up a large electric barrier, but it quickly began to crack. "How does she have so much power?!" Logan exclaimed realizing this was a fight he probably wouldn't win. "She gets her power from love!" Twilight shouted, "It needs to be replenished every now and then." Logan felt his spirit lift as he realized something if it needs to be replenished, it eventually runs out. All I have to do is avoid the attacks until she runs out. "Twilight, teleport me behind Chrysalis," Logan said. "But she'll kill you!" Twilight argued. "And she'll kill you too if I can't get her out. Plus you need time to find Celestia, and my electric shield won't give you another thirty seconds!" Twilight was at defeat. Her horn glowed and next thing Logan knew his stomach felt like it was inside-out and he was on just behind Chrysalis. The nausea was too powerful and he vomited on Chrysalis. Logan stumbled back before he spoke, "Wow that was a big improvement in appearance," Chrysalis spun around and fired her magic at Logan who barely dodged the attack. Logan ran with the buzzing sound of Chrysalis's wings following him gaining ground quickly. He needed to find a confined space where flying was too hard. The library, the tightly packed spaces between bookcases would make it very difficult to fly. Only problem was that he couldn't remember how to get there. Time for more trial and error, Logan thought to himself. Running down hallway after hallway, he could find no parterns or familiar structures. On the brighter side, Chrysalis had fired loads of magic and few came very close to him. She also over shot a turn Logan easily made, small wings and a big body didn't mix well. At last he recognized Celesita's room, and when he and Luna followed her she was going the same way he was. The memory of going to the library was fresh enough in Logan's mind to remember. Left, left, right, forward, left. Found it! But Chrysalis was to close so he passed the doors then made a U-turn running at an angle to the wall. Logan jumped at the wall then gave a big push off the wall. Chrysalis was coming right at him but he weighed more due to the holes in her body. Logan tackled Chrysalis mid air and drove her horn into the opposite wall. Logan ran into the library slamming the door closed to make sure Chrysalis knew where he was. He ran down a narrow space just as the door exploded into splinters from Chrysalis's magic blast. Logan scrambled up the bookcase. Chrysalis's advantage was she could fly. Now, because the space provided wasn't enough to fly in, Logan gained the advantage being able to climb the bookcase. The space between the the tops of the bookcases and the ceiling were enough to fly in but Chrysalis could get there in the first place. Logan had the advantage two stories up. Jumping from bookcase to bookcase he followed Chrysalis, not once did she ever bother to look up. Logan grabbed a book when she finally stopped and dropped it, which missed by quite a distance but it was enough to get her to turn around and fire a blast of magic into the wall. Every now and then Chrysalis would stop and Logan would drop a book near her causing her to fire a blast of magic. He kept this going for a while until Chrysalis got fed up and took on a new strategy; if you can't find someone, eliminate their hiding spots. Chrysalis fired a constant beam of magic and did a full spin. At first nothing seemed to happen, then there was a distinct noise: breaking wood. Logan felt the bookcase under him shift as it collapsed, then he felt nothing under him as he and the bookcase fell. Logan wasn't worried about being covered in wood, most of the other bookcases had already fallen. Logan tried to land on his feet but a long piece of wood broke up to a point, he could do nothing except brace for impact. With a grunt he landed on point as it went through the center of his belly and came out the other side by a foot and a half. The pain was worse than he immagined, and it greatly increased when the wood fell to a thirty degree angle. Logan felt at a loss for breath, but did not gasp for air. He tried to pull himself off the large piece of wood but was interupted by an evil chuckle, then an extreme wave of pain shot through his body. Chrysalis had shot him off the wood and through the wall out onto into the large fountain right before the entrance to the palace. Logan guessed that to shoot him through a stone wall it had to take a alot of energy so she was Chrysalis was probably run low on power. Logan slowly rose to his feet, noting how he was on the verge of death. Chrysalis hovered above the fountain, a triumphant smile on her face. She was getting over confident. Logan wasted no time, he quickly shot electricity into Chrysalis's left wing causing her to spiral down into the fountain. Logan fired electricity into the water and watched as Chrysalis jerked and spasmed her way out of the fountain. She limped up the stairs towards the palace entrance but Logan caught her at the top and punched her. Chrysalis staggered forward then turned around facing Logan who delivered a series of blows to Chrysalis's head before she blocked one and hit him in the stomach and face. Logan grabbed her head and smashed it against his knee, blood immediately began to flow. Logan followed that with a kick to her forehooves breaking them. Chrysalis stood on her back legs and received punch after punch to the stomach slowly loosing air. The rythm set in Logan punched with muscle memory, not able to feel and anything in his arms. He stopped for a moment and regained feeling in his arms, Chrysalis staggered this way and that, on the verge of death. Then Logan felt somthing cold in his feet, he looked down to see that he was slowly being turned to stone. Logan looked back to Chrysalis, if he didn't kill he she could win. He knew what he had to do; he had to end this, now.
StillLogan awoke unable to move, or talk, or breathe. He was completely immobile. Strangely though, he didn't feel like he needed to breathe, but he still wanted to. Logan felt stiff, he wasn't sure if he wanted to breathe more than he wanted to just stretch. On the bright side, he could still feel, hear, and see. All he could see was flowers, grass, and the sky; he could also hear the loud chirping of birds. He was definitely outside, but where? Logan felt grass on his back, but his chest was wet, as if a small cloud had rained on him in just one spot. Then he felt another drop land on his chest with a faint sound. He waited again then felt another drop, this time the sound was much louder and identifiable: a sniffle. It was loud and quick followed by slow stutterd exhale. Somepony was crying. Who? Logan had no clue; once again he wished he could move. The pony stayed for hours untill dusk. A new noise interupted the pony, the crunch of grass from under hoof coming closer. Nothing was said for a while, but the tears kept falling. "Do you think he's awake?" One asked quietly. "I don't know," the other responded softly. "I hope he's okay," the first said, the pony laid down on his chest not even bothering to brush off the tears. He felt comfort from this and wanted to do something when he heard the pony start to cry again. "Sister," Logan knew that voice, Celestia, and where there was Celestia there was Luna, "It pains me to see you like this, but crying over him won't do anything. We can only assume he's listening, unfortunately he can't move or use magic." She was right he couldn't move or use magic, but he didn't use magic, he used electricity the magic was just flushed out. Logan didn't think it would work but it was worth a try, and he could feel he had lots of electricity left because he couldn't heal with a stone body. So with that he slowly moved a bit of electricity over his heart. Logan heard a gasp of delight and Luna wrapped her fore hooves around him as much as she could. "He IS in there," Luna said triumphantly, "Let him out." "I can't yet," Celestia said, "The medical treatment needs to be set up." "Just trust me, sister. He can treat himself," Luna urged. "Does he agree with you?" Celestia asked. Logan sent electricity all over his body he noticed that he could control the wave lengths if he tried and could probably do a song later if he wanted to. "That's close enough to a yes for me," Luna said urgently. "I'm sorry," Celestia said, "As much as I trust you, I want Twilight and her friends' opinion. Even though he has helped, he IS a human." "Uhg Tia why do have to be such a..." Luna searched for the word, "a... a bitch." Celestia was obviously taken aback by this and stood silent. "I'll get Twilight Sparkle, you stay here with Logan," Luna began to leave but then stopped, "If you even try to hurt him, I swear, to the sun," Luna said the last words so gravely, Logan cut the electricity for fear Luna would do the same if he annoyed her. Luna departed leaving Logan and Celestia alone. There was an awkward silence so thick that it could have been cut with a knife. After a while, Logan started his electricity up again and began to play a tune unfamiliar to Celestia, though she did find it quite catchy and started to sway her head back and forth to the rhythm. Once he got bored of that tune he started to play a different song. Celestia was unfamiliar with this one too, but she didn't find it catchy, she found it a bit unnerving. "Can I please have some peace and quiet?" Celestia groaned. Logan stopped, the last thing he was wanted was to get on his marefriend's sister's bad side. Then Logan thought deeper. He was on Luna's good side, and if he got on Celestia's bad side a few things could happen. If Luna was deeply cared and protected him at all costs, Celestia would either give in to Luna or they would get into a fight. If Luna gave in, he could possibly be executed or trapped in stone forever. Wonderful, Logan thought to himself, I could be the cause of deaths or the dead one. He hoped it wouldn't come to that. Suddenly he heard hoof steps behind him, it wasn't Luna because the sound was very light but there was rustling so the pony wasn't trying to sneek up on him or Celestia. "Is he going to be okay, Princess?" a small foal's voice asked. "I don't know my little pony," Celestia replied. "He helped me at the hospital," The foal said, "I had a paper cut, and my brother broke his foreleg, and he fixed us and everypony in the hospital." The foal was silent for awhile but then left. "I forgot to tell you that you're in the public gardens. Because all the guards were stuck in a pod or green goop, I had to move you myself. I have no clue how my guards can even move Discord an inch when I could only get you to the public gardens." Celestia said the last few words chuckling. Silence once again ruled the air. Logan wished he could see Celestia's face, he still really couldn't tell what mood she was in. He also wondered how much damage the city had taken. Luna still wasn't back. At this rate, Logan would be freed in a few months. Hopefully the changelings wouldn't be back soon. Thinking back to when he fought what he thought was the last changelings, there weren't that many. Sure there was a great number of them but it seemed to few. If Chrysalis was planning on invading a capital, she would have brought more. Though the guards did take out a bunch of them, they probably took out more, and just one but end of a spear could knock a changeling unconscious, but presumed to be dead. I just hope there was a thorough clean up, Logan thought to himself. If there hadn't been, he knew whatever was left over was going to be a pain in the neck. Finally Celestia spoke again, "I just have to wonder what you would do if you weren't stone. Would you defend my ponies? Or would you attack them like that last savage that was here? Has your kind changed?" Logan understood Celestia's dilemma. Last time a human came here, apparently they tried to take over, but had they changed. From Celestia's standpoint giving him freedom put her subjects at risk, but keeping him in stone would rise complications with Luna. It's a shame that no matter the evidence, the truth can be just as hard to believe as a lie, Logan thought. Until Convinced otherwise, Celestia was going to keep him in stone. Logan wondered what the rest of Canterlot thought about him, if they had even heard about him at all. He didn't know how long he was out for so word could have spread about him; if it hadn't not much had since he was up at night and sleeping in the day. Finally Logan heard the flapping of wings, and beating of hooves. "I'm back," Luna said. Celestia turned to Twilight and her friends. "Twilight Sparkle," Celestia said, "I cannot make the judgement on the human because I lack experiences with it. From what I have been told, you and your friends are the few who knew this human. For that reason, I leave it to you and your friends to decide, set the human free, or keep him inprisoned." The six mares looked around from one to another, occasionally shifting their stances from the anxiety. Surprisingly, Fluttershy was the first to speak, "I say let him out, he's done nothing wrong, in fact he's actually helped." Rarity joined, "I do side with dear Fluttershy on this matter." Applejack said, "He fought off, timberwolves and changelings with his life on line." Pinkie popped out from under Applejacks hat, "It's true he fought off a bunch of badies! I need to throw him a proper welcome party!" Rainbow dash burst in, "Plus he's got powers, making him twice as good, and twenty percent cooler." "In more ways than one," Luna mumbled into Logan's ear, giggling a little after. He hoped Celestia didn't know about him and Luna, if she did in her current state of mind Logan might as well try to jump off Canterlot and live. Everypony looked to Twilight who knew her opinion meant most to Celestia. Twilight began, "Throghout the few days Logan the human has been here, he has acted selflessly even when faced with death. Every care for himself flung aside without a second thought or hesitation; ready to lay down his life for others, and a land he has known for a very short time. He has stopped timberwolves from slaughtering a whole train of ponies, he healed everypony in the hospital without asking for anything in return, and he was the main reason the changelings failed to take Canterlot, and Equestria. He has saved the lives of many ranging from ordinary ponies to a princess. Therefore, it is my opinion that he should be released." Celestia still had a look of uncertainty, "Princess, despite what happened last time a human was here, the past cannot be changed, but only the present will dictate the future." Celestia looked down at Logan then back at Twilight. "Very well," Celestia said, "I will release him, but if things get out of hoof, it's back to stone." Celestia looked down at Logan and her horn began to glow. Slowly, Logan felt the stone cracking, more and more until he moved and the stone broke completely off. He immediately started healing himself. As the wound healed less and less blood came out until it stopped and he was fully healed. Logan inhaled deeply as he realized he had been holding his breath for quite some time. Logan stretched his arms and legs first. Then, he sat up he turned his body to the left, cracking his back, Celestia cringed at the sound. She did the same when he cracked the right side of his back. "Doesn't that hurt?!" Celestia asked. "Nope," Logan replied. "So, I must officially ask you this, will you side wiith Equestria?" Celestia asked her tone going grave. "Yes," Logan replied in an even graver tone. "You are wise to side with us," Both princesses said at once. "I bet you don't even know what 'wise' means," Logan chuckled. "Yes we do," the sisters replied. Logan chuckled again. "Anyways," Luna said, "Welcome back." "WAIT!" Pinke yelled, "Welcome... welcome... wel... come... OHMYCELESTIA!IFORGOTABOUTTHEWELCOMETOEQUESTRIAPARTY! I'VE GOT SO MANY THINGS TO PLAN!" "Why is she always so..." Logan finish by making a googly eyed face. Author's Note Sorry it took so long, I was sick for awhile (still am) and tired sneak peak to next chapter, wise and clever are different things.
The Human's BackpackPinkie had sprung right into action getting food, music, and decorations for the party. Logan tried to convince Pinkie that there was no need for a party, and it would be better not to have a party to keep a low profile. Logan's attempts were all in vain; the pink, puffy maned mare was determined to throw a party. Though Logan agreed that a human coming to Equestria that didn't intend to take over was big, but he didn't think other ponies would be ready to see a human based on the reactions of the ponies that saw him. It had been only two hours since Logan was freed from stone. Luna had put the palace staff to work, they had already patched up his backpack but his clothes were to be thrown away once new clothes were given to him. Logan stayed in Luna's room, but he only looked out over the balcony. Luna tried to snap him out of his trance any way she could, she waved a hoof in front of his face, she tried playing Battlepony 3, she tried telling him jokes, she even tried to squeeze him in a bear hug, but nothing could get Logan out of his trance. Luna was starting to get angry. "Helloooooo," Luna said, "Is Logan in there? I'd like to know what's made him so boring." "Your assumptions based on visuals are incorrect, indicating there is more that could be gained and/or verified from facial expressions and body posture." "Stop talking with big smart words," Luna giggled, "So what's going on inside that noggin of yours?" "Multiple thought processes," Logan replied. "Well let's go through them one at a time," Luna said. "The first is about Chrysalis and the invassion. The who thing seems... off. Her 'soldiers' were way too easy to kill; if Chrysalis tried invading Canterlot before, she wouldn't risk making the same mistakes." "I don't see where you're going with this," Luna said "What I'm saying is that Chrysalis is no idiot. She wouldn't have rushed the invassion plan and made the same mistakes, she would have made sure the plan was well constructed. Problem is, Chrysalis's 'soldiers' seemed unprepared and just ruthless. Which means those 'soldiers' were probably mercenaries of her domain. Chrysalis knew they would die, but they would take out a bit of the guard. Her real soldiers were probably standing by, waiting for an order from Chrysalis to move into the city. But because she was preoccupied with attacking me, but the order never came. The theory would explain why the changelings seemed unprepared and why there were so few of them." An expression of horror dawned on Luna's face as she realized what Logan was saying, "You mean..." "There could be an entire army of changelings right under our noses. The good news is that without Chrysalis to lead them the changelings will cripple. So the changeling army will either break apart and go home or randomly attack in small groups or as individuals" "Useless attempts," Luna said and sigh with relief. "The other thing on my mind is something you might not understand," Logan said. "Tell me anyways," Luna said, "I might understand." "Well... it's about how ponies see me..." Logan began but Luna stopped him. "You're sad because you feel you're respected because ponies fear you," Luna said with a pained look. "Nailed it," Logan said quietly as he looked out into the sky. "I get it," Luna said, "I had the same problem, but it will work itself out." "Not for me," Logan said, "You're a Princess and you had a strong testimony from your sister and the six elements all who ponies trusted. As for me, I only have you. I can sense the six element bearers are still wary." "There is more isn't there," Luna said. "Something bad is going to happen, I just don't know what and when, all I know is that it's bad," Logan said. "How can you tell?" Luna asked. "I can just feel it in my bones," Logan replied. "Do all humans have that?" Luna asked. "It's a figure of speech,"Logan said. "How do you put a finger in your speech?" Luna asked. "Not finger, figure," Logan corrected. "So this figure of peach..." Luna began, but stopped when Logan gave her a tired look, "I'm just pushing your buttons, I know what a figure of speech is. So you feel that something bad is going to happen, is it something like a Pinkie sense." "Yeah... I guess you could say that," Logan said, "It's a bad feeling." Luna wrapped her forehooves around him laying her he on his shoulder. She let go of Logan when they heard the door open. Logan didn't bother to look, he was still thinking about what bad things could possibly happen. "Human," said a pony who was clearly Celestia, "I demand to know what is-" "I have a name you know," Logan said, "You wouldn't want me to call you pony," "Or Sun Butt," Luna giggled. "Shut it Moon Fart," Celestia grumbled. "Somepony woke up on the wrong side of the bar," Logan said with a hint of mockery, "Now what do you want?" "I want to know what's in your saddlebag," Celestia said. "Backpack," Logan corrected her. "Whatever, what's in it?" Celestia asked. Logan turned slowly around and slowly began to walk over to his backpack. When he got to it, he looked at Celestia seriously for a moment before he spoke. "Stuff," Logan said in a monotone. He began to walk away but Celestia stopped him with a hoof. "Just show me what is inside," Celestia groaned impatiently. "Why you can't open it yourself?" Logan snickered. Celestia groaned loudly in frustration. "Fine I'll show you," Logan began to unzip the first main pocket while he added, "Princess Whiney Pants," Logan pulled out the textbooks naming each subject. Celestia didn't see the cover before she began to speak, "Are these books on battle tactics?!" She burst. "No, they're books on what is said they are on; Trigonometry, Economics, Government, World History, German, and Chemistry." "Why do you keep so many books in your backpack?" Luna asked. "Because, the school year was starting in a few weeks when I got here," Logan said, "So I just packed all my textbooks in my backpack." "Is that it?" Celestia asked a little disappointed. "No, I've got pens, pencils, and a calculator with drawings of weird skulls on the cover because I wasn't going to buy a pink cover. There are a few other things in that are in there either because I kept forgetting or I was too lazy to put it in my binder." "What's this," Celestia levitated a small object, the same shade of blue as Luna's coat, out of his bag; it was slightly thinner than the textbooks and was slightly smaller than a piece of paper. "That is my laptop," Logan said as he picked it out of Celestia's golden aurora and set it on Luna's bed. "What's a laptop do?" Celestia asked. "Really Tia?!" Luna said in disbelief, "My language may have been outdated when I came back, but I had a reason. You need to learn more about technology, stone age sister." "On a laptop you can do things like make a word document, or a presentation, or a graph." Logan said, "The best part is the Internet. With it, you can connect to people, or ponies, from around the globe; make webpages; create games; and feul imagination." "That's too much to take in," groaned Celestia. "While you wrap your brain around that," Luna said, "I have some things to discuss with Logan." Celestia left the room her head down in thought. Luna tugged on Logan's hand indicating for him to follow her as she too walked out the door. Logan followed her down a few hallways and stairs before they arived outside in a fairly large area where guards were trained, though they weren't currently. "Let me guess," Logan said, "You think I'm a terrible fighter." "No," Luna said, "In every fight you have been at a disadvantage, so you need to gain an advantage." "So you're saying I need to improve my skills?" Logan's question was answered with a nod from Luna. "One major problem is that you can't fly," Luna said, "But from what I have heard you can use electricity as thrusters of some sort. If you can get more thrust you could jump a little higher." "Or fly?" Logan asked hopefully. "No," Luna said, "But you have enough thrust to get you further off the ground." Logan snapped, "Watch me learn, adapted, and fly!" "Sure," Luna scoffed, "Give up." Logan stopped dead, "What did you just say?" "I said give up," Luna repeated. "Is that how you lost?" Logan asked, "Is that why Chrysalis beat you?" "No! I ran out of energy, I had nothing left to use. I didn't give up!" "Then why are you telling me to give up?!" Logan shouted. "Beacuse that was possible, you flying is not possible!" Luna pushed. "Something becomes impossible when you stop trying," Logan said. Luna opened her mouth to counter but found she could not think of one. "By the way," Logan said, "This is going to be like a dangerous science experiment without a procedure, so you should probably stand back." Luna could agree more and she scurried back ten feet away from Logan. Logan slowly brought electricity to his hands, he didn't let any escape but instead just let the electricity spark on his hands. As more and more came his hands seemed to become electric spheres that got brighter and brighter. Guards came to the training grounds to see what was going on. Logan was suprised at how much electricity he contained, he could feel that he had only brought one pocket of electric into his hand and it was already as bright as a miniature sun. With the electricty so bright Logan thought that he would get almost fifty feet of air. The next thing he could have done quickly, but for the sake of data did it slowly. Logan began to condense the electricity into a single point in the palm of his hand, the more condensed it was the more pressure there would be. It got to about the size of tennis ball until he could condense it no more, now it only as bright as a glowstick. He looked around first to Luna then to the guards at the door, many of whom were now laughing at the size of small size of the electricity. He looked back at Luna who was now retreating to twenty feet. The next part had to be done quickly if he wanted to get any air. Logan crouched low and jumped up as he let out the electricity in one big burst aimed down at the ground. Logan didn't know what happened or how long it had taken until he could feel his face again. It felt cold and his eyes were watering a bit, he was looking at the sky so he knew he was going up. Then Logan looked down which he immediately regretted doing. He didn't know how high up he was, all he noticed was that ponies became ants then became too small to see. I definately learned to ration my electricity, Logan thought to himself. As he slowed down Logan realized something, "Oh shit! I forgot to plan the goddamn landing!" he shouted as the decent began. He wanted to kill himself for forgeting to plan the landing, but he realized to the ground would do that for him if a plan wasn't completed before impact. Logan put his anger aside and tried to come up with a plan, but he couldn't. The best he could think of was bending his knees, but with a drop like this he would be flater than a pancake. What he needed was a cushion, but something that wasn't going to shoot him back up. No, no he couldn't use a cushion, it wouldn't stop him in time or slow him down enough. All he could do was brace for impact... brace... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Back on the ground Luna used her wings to shield herself from the dust that kicked up when Logan released the electricity. She looked back up to see Logan flying up higher and highet, getting smaller and smaller untill she couldn't see him. She searched the night sky for him to come back down but she couldn't find him, then she faintly heard him yell, "Oh shit. I forgot to plan the goddamn landing." The guards heard it as well and some began to fly up to get Logan. "No," Luna said, the guards stopped. "But your Majesty-" one guard began. Logan came back into view, and he was approching the ground quickly. "If he is to learn, he must be forced to make quick decision." Luna said, "I will know if something has or will go horribly wrong," Luna watched as Logan neared the ground, time seemed to slow down as Logan got within a few hundred feet. Luna could see Logan, he was falling nearly at a belly flop but his head was just ahead, his body aimed down at a twenty-five degree angle, arms limp at his sides. His face showed no emotion, and stayed expressionless even as he neared the ground. In the last hundred feet time began to speed up until it was normal and the blur that was Logan hit the ground at terminal velocity, one hundred twenty four miles per hour.
A pinhead no moreDust, dirt, and shards of the stone ground flew in all directions. The guards did what they could to avoid the debris, crouched low, covered themselves with their wings, or made a small frontal magic barrier; Luna, however, didn't even flinch. She was about to flap her wings to clear the dust when a breeze dotted with specs of blue electricity blew through. As it passed over her the electricity brought a tingling sensation. The feeling gave her the chills, and for a moment her heart began to race in panic. She quickly pushed the panic down; Logan surrvived his fall into the Everfree Forest, he would surrvive this too. She repeated the logic in her head again, but a hint of doubt hung in her mind. Lucky for her and the guards the breeze had cleared most of the dust, penetrating through the dust was a silhouette slouched over... or crouched down... Luna didn't know which, she was begin to panic again. As the dust fully cleared Luna's heart beat faster and faster until she thought her heart couldn't beat anymore. The dust was clear revealing Logan, unmoving. Luna gave a stuttered exhale, uncertain of Logan's condition. Logan was bent over on one knee, his arms down helping him balance. Logan slowly inhaled as he rose to a standing position, he looked at his shirt and pants then patted the dust off them. He walked out of the indent he made from his legs. Logan walked back a bit, "He he," Logan chuckled lightly, "Hulk smash." Luna lifted a forehoof and hit the back of Logan's head. "Hey what was that for?!" Logan exclaimed rubbing the spot. "For scaring the crap out of me!" Luna snapped back, "You couldn't have yelled something like, 'hey I'm okay,'?!" "I was a little preoccupied with checking if I was alive," Logan replied. "So how did you survive?" Luna asked. "I use electricity to reinforce my bones and to shield points of impact from being damaged," Logan explained. "Electroskeleton," Luna said. "Nice name," Logan agreed then continued, "Why does distruction follow wherever I go?" "Because you're the wrecking ball, and you don't make the damage, others do," Luna chuckled, "Besides, what's the worst that could happen?" "Never say those words, they always lead to bad things," Logan warned. "Yeah right, the changelings are gone and they were the only threat," Luna said, "It's nothing but smooth sailing from here." "Don't jinx it," Logan said. "You're starting to sound like Pinkie Pie," Luna said, "Come on, we've got to get you in your new clothes for the party." Logan wasn't sure what Luna had requested to be made, all he hoped was that it wasn't something uncomfortable. Luna lead the way back to her room, but just as they passed Celestia's room they heard a thud. "No. Where is it?" Celestia's muffled voice said. Luna stopped and poked her head into the room. "What are you looking for?" Luna asked. "Nothing! Nothing!" Celestia said hastily, but Luna could tell what she was looking for. "It's under the bed," Luna said. "What is?!" Celestia said loudly pretenting not to understand. "You know what is," Luna said, "And by the way, since Anvil and Hammer are my personal guards I did make them emortal." "I'm... very happy," Celestia said confused. "I know you are," Luna said, "Especially for Anvil." Celestia didn't respond and Luna continued down the hall again with Logan trailing her. As they turned a corner Logan spotted Shining Armor. He tried his best to walk quietly by while faces were in the ground bowing to Luna as she passed, but Shining Armor Didn't bow, he saluted Luna instead. Logan tried to walked past without making eye contact, but Shining Armor put up a hoof stopping him. Logan prepped his electricity for a shield just in case Shining Armor decided to try exterminating Logan. "Hey listen, I'm real sorry about blasting you off Canerlot," Shining Armor said, "I wasn't informed at the time of the things you did." "It's fine," Logan said, "You acting like that shows how much you want to protect others." Luna grabbed Logan's arm with her magic sending him falling face first of the floor. She ignored this and kept pulling, dragging Logan down the hall. "The floor itn't forgiving, nor does it taste good." He eventually got to his feet and got close enough to Luna where she released him from her magic. Luna looked at Logan and luaghed, "What happened to your face?" "You know very well what happened," Logan grumbled healing the cuts on his face. "You know, I just noticed how high your cheekbones are," Luna said. "So what? I noticed there's a wall that you're about to walk into," Luna turned before hitting the wall, "I also noticed that most things in nature are controlled by ponies." "And it isn't the same in your world?" Luna asked astonished. "Where I come from, when you pick a fight with nature, you eventually end up getting your ass handed to you," Logan said, "So you either adapt to nature, or get killed." "Sounds harsh," Luna commented. "It's not so bad," Logan added, "Through time humans, slowly but surely, got smart enough to work around nature. However if nature doesn't kill you, time will." "What do you mean," Luna asked confused. "Think about it, everything must come to an end. I'm going to eventually die, my friends and family will eventually die, even the blue and green ball we humans call home will one day cease to existist. Now that last one will hopefully happen after humans go extinct, because experiencing the end of the world would not be pleasant; well the end of humanity wouldn't be pleasant either." "You're so negative." Luna said in a scolding tone. "I just face facts," Logan said, "Death is not a happy thing, because the brain saves the worst but most important thing for last: awareness that you're dying." "Well when you put it like that..." Luna needn't finish the sentence. The rest of the walk was in silence, only the sound of Luna's hoofs could be heard on the floor. Logan's step was close to being completely silent. Luna turned back every now and again to make sure Logan was still following her. When Luna entered her room she looked for the clothes that were supposed to be done, she didn't see them anywhere though. "Good fit," Logan said. Luna turned to see he already had them on. She looked at him with a puzzled face, then she looked back out into the hall, then back to Logan, and once again into the hall. "How..." Luna pointed from Logan to the hall. "Ninjas, aliens, and Cinnamon Toast Crunch," Logan said, "You'll never understand me." "That I can agree on," Luna said nodding her head, "So how do they feel?" "This feels like the underside of a comfy blanket." Logan said, "These pants feel like... like..." Logan rubbed the pant legs against his legs, "Well they feel like pants." "Well that's a dumb way to describe them," Luna sighed. "Well then," Logan said, "How 'bout I lie and say... 'Oh I feel like I don't even have pants on! It's like I'm running around in my boxers!'" "Don't ever say something like that," Luna said. "How do I look?" Logan asked. "Really cool," Luna said, "See for yourself," Luna levitated Logan into the bathroom. Logan had to agree he did look... a little cool. The t-shirt was blue with spots that faded to green, gray, or black here and there. The sleeves went down to his elbows and was hanging only half and inch down. The bottom of the shirt went down to the middle of the top pockets on his pants. The pants were all black and they weren't jeans, they were cargo pants. Black cargo pants, with two pockets where most pants had them and two back pockets. Then there were pockets on the pantlegs above his knees two identical, then under them were more still above the knees. Under the top cargo pocket on his right was a wide but shallow pocket. Under the top cargo pocket on his left were two small shallow pockets side by side. "Excellent" Luna said, "Now I can get a good look at you without you being half naked from holes in your clothes." She slowly circled him with a smile on her face. Logan felt like she was smiling a bit too much. "How do I look altogether?" Logan asked. "Handsome." "What?" "I said, um, awesome. You look awesome!" Just then the door clicked, and began to open. Author's Note Sorry it took so long. I thought that since the like dislike ratio was so terible compared to other stories (even new ones not as poppular) but I decided not to let that get me down later. Now in another matter, do you all remember the infamous saying "Trust the writers"? Well to prevent that I have a solution, "Trust the readers". The question is do you want me to keep the character in this timeframe or find a way to update the timeframe (ie put season three into orbit some how)? leave your answers in the comments or mail it to me by the site. PLEASE LIKE THE STORY IF YOU LIKE WHAT IM DOING OR IF I SHOULD JUST ABANDON THE STORY!
The Bad ThingIt's was quite obvious as to whom was at the door: Celestia, Goddess of nosing into others' business. "I'm naked!" Logan lied. and the door immediately slammed shut. "He's just joking, Tia." Luna called. The door opened slowly as Celestia peaked around it, just to be on the safe side. Once she was sure all necessary clothes were apllied she stepped into full view, then started trotting over to Logan with an angry glare. "Nope." Logan dove under the bed, thinking it was safe under there. But Celestia started jumping on it, crushing him again and again. Luna put an extra bounce in the bed and shot Celestia up in the air and landing in a corner of the room. "I swear, Luna!" Celestia said, "To the moon." Logan moved his head out from under the bed and looked at Luna then Celestia. "She really can't take a joke," Logan said partially amazed and partially annoyed. "I just came up to tell you lots of ponies are waiting," "Yeah, hurry up slow pokes," Rainbow Dash said loudly from the balcony. "How long have you been there?!" Logan shouted supprised as he crawled all the way out from under the bed. "Since you came out with your new outfit, and I heard everything." Rainbow said with a smirk. She raised her eyebrows suggestively from Luna to Logan. "Shut up!" Luna shot back. "I never said anything," Rainbow smirked, "But I did see some... other things." Rainbow Dash flew over and put a foreleg and leaned in so only they could hear. "You two were really going at it." "RAINBOW DASH!" Luna's mane and tail erupted into flames, as did the pupils of her eyes. Rainbow tried to bolt but Luna stamped her tail to the ground. She grabbed a pair of saddlebags in her magic and started beating Rainbow over the head with them, yelling as she hit. "Why--the buck--did you--watch--us do it?!" Luna screamed. Rainbow's answers were grunts of pain as she tried to stop the barrage. Suddenly Logan felt a force on his back, pinning him to the ground. Celestia with her hoof on Logan's back started beating him over the head with another pair of saddlebags, yelling just as Luna had done. "Why--the buck--did you--do--my sister?!" Celestia roared. She took her hoof off to get a better stance as she took another pair of saddlebags. Logan tried crawling to the door. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hammer and Anvil, Luna's two personal gaurds, were out side guarding the door. The door opened and Logan crawled far enough to see the two guards. "Help me!" Logan said, but he was pulled back in, "Aw cra-" *Slam* the door shut cutting him off. There was a long silence then Anvil spoke up. "Think we should help him?" he asked. Hammer put his wing on his chin and thought for a moment. "Nah, he's fine." And both gurads resumed their job. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Thwack* *Thud* *Smack* "To be honest, I did him," Luna said. Rainbow Dash, who was now rubbing her sore head, had been let go. Celestia stopped her attack and stared slack jaw at Luna. "I kind of forced him to." Luna added. Logan flipped over and sat up rubbing his head as well. "You couldn't have said that a little earlier?!" Logan said annoyed. Celestia glarred at him and kicked him in the groin with her back leg. In response Logan curled up into a ball on his side clutching the pained area. "Oh no!" Luna started, "Are you okay?" "Never been worse," Logan replied in a raspy groan, "I'm just going to lie here for a while." "She was Nightmare Moon half the time they were doing it," Rainbow said. Logan could feel Celestia glaring again and rolled away leaving her to stomp on the empty ground. Logan rolled around to safety behind Luna. "You're not helping him Rainbow," Luna said, "Why were you even watching?" "Well, you were on that balcony looking like Nightmare Moon for so long, that I got a little suspicious. So I kept a lookout then I started to see things that I wish I didn't. It was so ugly, and horrible, and... oh who am I kidding! It was hot!" Logan, who had gotten over the pain and had stood up, was a deep crimson red and was doing his best to keep a straight face. Luna was also blushing but only on a small portion of each cheek; her her eyes were looking anywhere away from others and her mouth was screwed up in embarrassment making a funny face. "Ahem." Celestia said. The two slowly turned around to see Celestia on fire. Her entire body a flame with the outline of an alicorn princess. Logan and Luna slowly backed towards the balcony. "Um, I think you two got your point across," Logan said nervously. "Yes," Luna agreed with a shaky voice, "That we are late to the party. We will be going now-" "-Via express route!" Logan shouted as he jumped off the balcony into the cool night air. Luna didn't even look to see if her sister was chasing after her before following Logan off into the air. Logan started releasing electricity out of his hands, more and more until he found a range where he could hover. The sound it made was quite soothing, a low humming. Oddly though, he felt only a light wind. Electric wind must disapate quickly Logan thought to himself. It would make sense, to knock back those zombies he needed to use a full pocket of electricity and even that ran out of steam in a short distance. Before he could move to another thought he was enveloped in a blue aurora and levitated back into the room. Celestia had calmed down and was no longer in flames; although she still held a frown of disapproval. "First of all, jumping off the balcony was not a smart idea," Luna said, " Second, was this horrible encounter the bad thing you were feeling?" Logan paused and looked up in thought. Logan still felt something worse was going to happen. He stilled didn't know what, but if it was worse, he didn't think he would make it out alive. If I tell Luna the truth she may worry, Logan thought, I'd rather not spend the moments before I die with others worrying about me. But if I do tell her the whole thing could possibly be avoided, no guarantee. Logan looked at Celestia then Luna and thought some more. Celestia really cares about her ponies, and her sister. She still sees me as a possible threat, a war threat. If I die it will be a great weight off her mind. However, if I live, I will still be on thin ice. That stupid bastard that came here before me must have left a large number of Celestia beloved ponies six feet under. With a grudge like that, there is no way I could possibly get on her good side. If Luna loses me, I don't know how she'll react. Best case scenario she just blows it off like I never existed. Logan didn't want to think about a worst case scenario. Luna put a leg around him in a sideways hug. "Will you be okay?" Luna asked. Of course she meant "Is that bad thing still there?" but to Logan it was much different. What about me? Logan thought, I'm no fan of dying, but it seems like the best option. Right now I'm a 'threat' to an entire nation, and I'm no longer much of a defender. With the recent attack they probably learned to be prepared. They'll most likely keep those Elements of Harmony very close by. So I'll be bad, purposeless, and still don't know if I have a way home. If I die at least I can hope to go to some sort of heaven. But If I live there is still a chance to get back home. Home... God, I want to go home, I want to see my parrents and siblings again. "Logan, please tell me that was the bad thing," Luna said a little worry in her voice. "Um... Yeah, I think that was the bad thing," Logan lied. "Oh thank goodness." Luna sighed with relief, and smiled as she lay her head on his shoulder, "Glad to know everything is going to be fine." "Yeah... me too," Logan said softly. I just hope that I won't have to wait for my family in the afterlife. Out of the corner of his eye Logan thought he saw a golden aurora around Celestia's horn fade away. He wasn't sure if he saw correctly or not, either way he didn't care. Finally Celestia spoke up, "How about we get going." Logan was a bit surprised at how she sounded, it was barely louder than a whisper. Her voice was smooth and caring, almost like a mother; although he didn't know why she suddenly decided to talk like that. "Okay," Luna said and the three walked out of the room and down the hall. "I hope those ponies haven't been waiting too long," Logan said. "They've been waiting since you left the guard training grounds," Celestia said, "They thought the blue flare you sent up was a signal to gather for the party early." "Eh hehe, funny thing though," Logan said nervously, "That wasn't a flare, that was me." "Somehow that doesn't surprise me," Celestia sighed. "So what's so big about Pinkie's parties? I mean parties are awesome, but why are they so huge when Pinkie is throwing them?" Logan asked. "Because parties are Pinkie Pie's special talent," Luan replied, "She knows everything about parties here." "Yeah, though I doubt she knows everything about parties in my world," Logan said sadly. "Do they have... cake?" Luna asked "Yup." "Balloons?" "Yeah." "Pin the tail on the pony?" "Kind of and sometimes." "Bananas?" Celestia cut in. "What? Sometimes." "DJ?" Luna continued. "Sometimes." "Those of the opposite gender?" "Ja." "Friendly ponies?" "Friendly people, yes." "Streamers?" "Affirmative." "A banner here and there?" "Check." "So is there anything else that wasn't listed?" "Do you have a party marker?" Logan asked. "A what?" "Something that labels the gathering as a party." "I need an example." Luna said. "Well it usually is something or someone breaking. Like the label phrase." "What's the label phrase?" Celestia asked. "Hold my beer and watch this!" Logan said, Celestia snickered. "You drink?!" Luna said shocked. "No, for parties I attended beer was replaced with soda." Logan chuckled. "What happens after that?" Celestia asked trying to hold in her laughter. "Said speaker usaully jumps off something and shakes hands with the floor using his or her face." Celestia burst into a fit of crying laughter. "See I told you he's funny!" Luna said triumphantly. "Yeah," Celestia laughed trying to wipe away the tears, "I can't breathe!" Celestia swayed from side to side as she gasped for air. "Well, I think we should lay off the funnies until we get to the party, in the gardens." Luna said, Logan nodded in agreement. "So, I was wondering about recent events," Logan began, "What's the history with the changelings? And that Discord thing, what is he all about? And this magic of friendship, what is it? "Let me start with the changelings first," Celestia said, "Next to this attack, the changelings recent attack was durring Shinning Armor and Princess Cadence's wedding." "That must have been the world record for worst wedding day." Logan commented. "It was! Especially for Cadence. She was thrown down into a mine and replaced by a changeling queen who manipulated her soon to be husband. Even after everypony found out, the queen almost managed to defeat us. I didn't expect another attack so soon." Celestia went into her thoughts for awhile as they walked out the main gate and down the steps onto the street in the cool night air. "As for Discord," Luna picked up, "He is set in stone for throwing Equestria into turmoil. He turned buildings upside down, corn into popcorn, dirt roads into bubble roads, grass into tile, clouds into cotton candy, and he made them rain choclate milk. The thing I don't get is that when he filled up a glass with chocolate milk, he would drink the glass and throw the chocolate milk which would explode." "Now the magic of friendship, it is something so powerful that it helps feul the elemenst of harmony, each of the six ponies you first met wields an element. The elements are: honesty, loyalty, generosity, kindness, laughter, and the most powerful, magic." "Oh I know how powerful magic is," Grumbled Logan. "Shshshshhhhh." Luna said wrapping Logan's head in he forelegs, "No more tears." "I wasn't crying, I was complaining," Logan snapped turning the wrap up into a hug, "But hugs never hurt." "Alright lovebirds, get back to walking," Celestia urged. "So, where in the garden is the party?" Logan asked. *BOOM* "SURPISE!" Logan fell over from the jumpscare. "Nice lungs, Mare," Rainbow Dash said. "I did not scream!" Logan exclaimed. "You're right, you really shrieked like a little filly," Rainbow teased. "Well RD, y'all got the voice of a colt," Applejack said. "Girls, girls, stop fighting!" Twilight said. "Theres no fighting at a PARTY!" Pinkie Pie bounced, "Unless it's a pillow fight at a slumber party." "I don't like fighting," Fluttershy agreed softly. "Then you definitely won't like what's coming next." Another joined in. Logan looked to to see a pony staring back at him angrily, but soon the pony was gone. All he was looking at was a changeling. "Looks like we we've got a party pooper," Logan said. "Make that party poopers," the changeling buzzed. It fired a ball of green magic that exploded in the sky. Almost immediately thought-to-be ponies started turning into changelings from everywhere. They took flight and buzzed in the sky. The ponies who weren't changelings ran behind the princesses. The changelings began to land from afar, forming into three blocks. "There must be at least three hundred." Luna said. "Now we know how many changelings were leftover." "You think you beat use because you killed our queen!" The first changeling buzzed, "We have generals to take over when the queen is killed!" "Teams ready!" The changeling yelled. "Team back up?!" A block of changeing yelled back. "Team lock?!" Another block of changelings yelled back. "Team clone! Fire!" "Team clone?!" Logan exclaimed. Before he could ting further the block of changelings fired into the general changeling who fired at Logan. The shot was too fast to react to until if was upon him. Pain shot and resonated through every inch of his body. It felt like he was being ripped apart in every direction. The pain lasted for a few seconds until there was an explosion throwing Logan back a few feet landing on his back. Ponies gasped, as Logan sat up he gasped too. Floating in an aurora of green was the silhouette of another human. "Team back up!" The block of changelings responded immediately, streams of green aurora brought fourth black blob moving around. The blob was floated over to the silhouette and merged with it. A voice boomed from the air, "I doth live again!" The aurora broke and the human landed with ease. He looked at his hands and flexed his muscles "It seems that I hath regained mine youth!" He shouted happily. Then he looked at the princess and scowled, "Ah, Celestia. My youth shall taste most wonderous with vengeance to accompany it." "Leo Ulric, I'd hoped I'd never see you again!" Celestia growled. "Thine hopes hath doomed thee." Leo shot back. A low ring of fire swirled around him. "So you will not end your conquest ambitions?" Celestia asked. "Nay! By mine kings orders I am to concur this land for him!" Leo shouted back. "Last time we met you were in your forties as I remember." "I am but a fifteen year old now," Leo smirked, "Much battle experience from such a youth!" "Well all of your men are waiting for you in the afterlife." "Not for long," The changeling general said, "Team back up, life transfer!" The changeling block began to desintegrate into a block of green auroras with flesh inside. They shot out into the night sky and disappeared. "Your army shall soon have restored glory, human." "Mine king will be most pleased to hear this!" Leo said triumphantly. "Sorry Leo, but your king has been dead at most 978 years." Celestia said as Logan finally got to his feet. "Lies thou weavest from thine tongue!" Leo spat. Finally Leo noticed Logan looking oddly at him, "Tell me brother, what news dost thou have of his majesty?" "The latest news?" Logan said sarcastically, "The king was burried in a marked grave. I'm no brother of yours, the current year back on earth was 2012. All the land has been taken, and countries have formed." Leo looked from Celestia to Logan and back. "Lies! All lies!" Leo shouted his hands engulfed in flames. "Whoa, easy there!" Logan said, "Let's all just calm down." "Thou hast no idea how much pain we hath endured." Leo said angrily, "To watch those you fought alongside or for die in front of your very eyes, to feel the pain of battle wounds, and to leave your family, children, and spouse, for a war." Leo did not know how hard that point hit home. "How old were you?" Logan asked "We were twenty five when we were abruptly taken from our land, but in a few years learned to jump relms. At thirty seven the war started, at least we were able to say goodbye to our family." "You got it easy," Logan said, Leo looked at him in shock, "I was taken not a month ago, without warning. Not even a second to say goodbye to my parents or siblings. I know I should start pulling my weight myself around fifteen, but survive in another world is not what that means." "Hast thou endured physical pain?" Leo asked. "Oh plenty," Luna said, "He's made giant craters using himself, got a good socking from timberwolves he demolished, and had a giant hole that you could look through right in his stomach." "How bad was it?" Leo asked. "Well, some jornalists that went into a frenzy from the attack were near and got some photos." Celestia teleported some photos over to Leo. One showed Logan recoiling in pain. Another Logan was trying to work his way off the dagger like wood sticking out a foot and a half. The next picture was Logan's arm inside Chrysalis's chest, Logan's face wasn't visible, Chrysalis's pupils were small specks on the white of her eyes. Her mouth was open failing to gasp for air and fresh blood flowed from her nose. "This one is the most disturbing to look at." Celestia warned. Leo looked at the last picture, Logan was standing wide stance in the fountain, a cloud of bloody water was at his legs. The hole from the wood was visible in the picture, it was in the center of his belly. The hole was at least eight inches in diameter, blood was floowing out the front and dripping down from the top of the hole. Some of his intestines were loosely hanging out the front, the rest were slumped inside making other organs visible. With his clothes soaked in blood he stared angrily off camera at Chrysalis, his eyes were filled with anger, disgust, and an untold amount of hatred. "With all this pain, why dost thou continue to stay?" "Becasuse I don't have a way back," Logan said. "Then join us, unlock we have the power to take us home," Leo said. "Thanks, but from what I've heard, once I'm gone you'll attack Equestria. Now your king is dead, all land is set in countries which you can join, and you'll have a good chance out in the world as long as you don't tell anyone your from the midieval period. So will you cease your attacks now?" Leo looked down in though. "Never," Leo spat. "Then from this point on we are enemies." Logan said. Leo looked around to see horns lighting, spears raising, and many ponys began to stomp the ground. Leo knew he had no chance against two princesses so he ran. Leo jumped of the nerest edge of Canterlot and shot off fire trailing behind him. "Now that everything is cleared up," the changeling general said, "Team lock! fire!" Logan hadn't noticed the entire time a block of changelings was preparing to fire, all eyes were on Leo giving the changelings time. Logan could only take the hit. The changelings turned into aurora, and zipped over to Logan, the aurora swirled up and around him quickly becoming smaller. As it closed around him he realized something this was the bad thing. Soon the aurora srank to nothing and Logan was nowhere to be seen.
Darkness, Regret, and GuiltLogan opened his eyes. He wasn't sure if he had been out for long, or out at all. He could have been poorly teleported. He was lying on his back, but what was under his back was nothing but blackness. To his left was darkness, to his right was pitch black. Strangely though he could still see himself perfectly, it was like someone photo shopped him onto a black background. He leaned up a bit on his elbows looking around, but all he saw was black, black, and more black. The darkness just went on and on, in every direction. Up, down, left, right, in front, behind, and every in between, the darkness conquered it all. Logan got to his feet and looked around some more, but there was no change, darkness still ruled the air. He took a step foreward, carefully placing his foot down as to make sure that the blackness did not suddenly drop off. He repeated the process again for a few more step; to an onlooker he would look like some crazy, not trusting the ground he was standing on. Slowly tiptoeing foreward, like a child sneaking downstairs for a midnight snack. At this rate the Mars Rover will catch me in no time! Logan thought sarcastically. He was sure he could save himself from a fall if one of his steps did go awry. He sped up to very slow steps, still taking in his surroundings, looking for something different. "This place is blacker than Helen Keller's world." Logan said a bit of worry working its way into his brain. He speed his pace to a slow walk, still hoping to find change in the seemingly endless void. Where the hell am I?! Logan wondered, What kind of place goes on forever in complete black? No place as far as he knew of. He remembered everything before he opened his eyes to darkness. Changelings brought back asshole who went and tried to take over last time. Changelings fly off in a "life transfer". Changelings change into a green tornado. It was tornado, he didn't know what it did, but it was the tornado. Was he lost? Just walking in a place so dark that he couldn't see the actual features of the landscape around him? His pace sped to a normal walk. No the ground outside is never this flat, and if he was outside there would be vegetation to make a shuffling sound and on dirt, a scraping sound. Night time was the logical option for time of day, but the moon wasn't visible nor were the stars. Of course, he could be inside, artificial floors would explain the flatness. Being inside would also explain why the sun, moon, and stars weren't visible. As far as he knew he could be walking in circles, or he really was in a big room. A cave wasn't a possibility, there wasn't a single air current or breeze to be felt. With the results he was getting it he could be anywhere. Logan's pace quickened to a fast walk. If he kept walking he would eventually hit a wall or obstacal this couldn't go on forever. What if he was trapped in here forever?! Dying a slow painful death! Logan's pace quickened to a jog. What if I'm already dead?! Logan thought dreadfully, Doomed to walk in this darkness for eternity! Eternity and forever, the two things that a brain can't comprehend. Logan broke into a full sprint, "I can't be dead!" he panted, "It can't end like this! Damned to be alone in this darkness forever! I've got to find something, someone, anything! I won't spend the rest eternity like this!" Logan collapsed onto the ground gasping for air. It was hopeless, he was stuck here. Forsaken to spend the rest of his days in an endless darkness. "I wish somepony would have heard the truth," Logan panted, "Though this entire thing still could have been unvoidable." Logan rested on his knees, his head bent over touching the ground and his arms on the sides of his head. For to first time in years he wept. What's done is done, Logan reminded himself, Crying won't fix anything. Nopony could stop that shot, at least I know it wasn't their fault I'm stuck here. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Luna choked on the lump forming again in her throat. Tears welled up in her eyes and she silently let them stream down her face and onto the stone of her balcony, which soaked them up quickly. It all happened so fast, the changelings raise the dead, then Logan was gone in a green swirl. The changeling general flew off with a spare block of changelings, most likely in the direction of the hive. Celestia wrapped her sister in her wing, but kept quiet. Luna looked at Celestia and smiled at the blurry version of her sister. "He's in a better place now," Luna said. "Yes, and if you need to talk to me about this, I'm here for you." Celestia replied. "Do you think it hurt?" Luna asked "Only for a second," Celestia reassured her, "Then the pain would be all gone." Luna sniffled, "You know, years go by and this is still the hardest part of the job: watching others go." "I know, I know" Celestia said, "But that's something both of us can't change." "What do you think his afterlife is like?" "What do you mean?" "Where was he told he would go when he died?" "Probably some sort of paradise." "I hope so, he deserved it." There was a long silence before Celestia spoke again. "I'll be in my room, don't hesitate to come to me if you need anything." Celestia slowly, with a smile, walked out of the room. Once she was out of sight she let out a deep breath and dropped the smile. "Sometimes, keeping this smile in grief is the hardest part." She said aloud. "That's why you don't have to keep it around a few others." Hammer said. Celestia held her breath in embarrassment, she could clear her sister's ears, but not the guards'. "I understand that she is at a loss, but you should have helped her move on by now." Anvil said. "You are correct," Celestia agreed, "The problem is I haven't got over his death." "With all respect, Princess, you and Logan weren't good... or even okay friends." Hammer said. "It's not his absence that I trouble over," Celestia corrected, "I fight myself on the inside because of his death." "I don't think I understand, Princess." Hammer said, Anvil nodded in agreement. "You wouldn't, it's complicated," the solar princess replied as she walked off towards her room. She knew the only one who would understand was herself. As she walked down to her room the guards had the same look on their face as they always did. They all looked a little angry or serious, but mostly they had a blank expression. However, when Celestia looked at them, the anger and seriousness turned to anger and accusation. Guards straight forward down a hall while others in the middle of the halls scanned left and right. As a guard, it was their job to check over anypony that went past. Just a quick glance and double check, then all would be well. But as some of the guards looked at her, the anger and accusation seemed to come out. Those stationed to look forward only seemed to be watching her, ready and wait if she decided to try to bolt. Shining Armor was walking down the opposite way, Celestia spoke up to take her mind off the stares. "Captain Armor, how are the guards? Have any not been taking duties seriously?" "All are in tip-top shape your majesty." Shining replied, "All the guards are doing just fine. How's your job going today?" Celestia inwardly winced at the question. "Just... fine. Keep up the good work." she said quietly as she continued her walk. She looked at guards she passed who all just gave her the same angry look. She just couldn't shake the feeling that they were angry towards her. Finaly she couldn't take, "Don't any of you guards ever smile!" The guards didn't respond, and they still looked angry. "Uhhhhhgggg!" Celestia groaned loudly in frustration. She stormed the rest of the way to her room. Celestia shut the door forcefully and leaned on it when she was in. She pressed her ear to the door for a few seconds, after she had confirmed there was silence outside she let out a sigh of relief. Thousands of years go by and one thing never changes, I'm the only one that understands me. She thought to herself. She walked over to her nightstand and opened the only drawer it had. She stood quiet, checking again to make sure nopony was listening in. Once she reassured herself that she was clear, she turned her attention back to her nightstand. Celestia pulled her diary from the drawer and tossed it onto her bed. She walked over to her desk and opened a drawer directly under the middle of the desk. She rummaged around in the drawer, pushing aside sticky notes, index cards, a few paperweights she rarely used, ribbons, a few boxes of red wax, stamp molds, and a book mark or two. She pulled out a glass of ink and two quills from the cluttered mess and walked back to her bed. She layed herself on the comfortable bed and opened her diary to the last page and whispered into the center of the page, "Sunspot," The diary responded by making more pages appear and the words of her earlier entries visible. She opened the ink, dipped a quill, and began to write. Little time has passed since my last entry. Though it was a few days, more things happened in those days than I ever thought possible. It all started a few days ago when I had gotten word of a human in Equestria. As earlier entries show, the last human that was here left many of my ponies dead, scared land across Equestria, and me with numerous nightmares. It was because of these that I had decided to stop this human before things got out of hoof. Unfortunately I was attacked and sealed away by Chrysalis, the changeling queen. I was filled in on what happened after. Apparentely, Chrysalis had the same idea and tried to kill him. My sister, however, had different plans. She trusted the human, and because of her the human survived the attack Chrysalis threw at him while disguised. I thought no good could come from this, but I was wrong. He healed a full hospital of ponies, fought off the changeling queen, and before all of this happened he had fought timberwolves off a train in what I could call a pretty badass way. However, the last human that came to Equestria also did some good, not as much good as this one, but still. When I was released from my prison, I was quickly informed of this and one other thing: the human was battling the changeling queen to buy time for Twilight and her friends to get me out. This brought some unrest in my mind, the human had gained everyponys' favor except for mine. My mind was overtaken in a debate between the two possiblilities, the human was really good, or this is just an elaborate hoax to gain our trust. I kept skeptical because I thought that the human was an adult like the last one. I, however, was wrong. I found the human fighting the changeling queen on the steps leading to the main entrance of the castle. As I guessed he was fifteen years of age, and beating the chitin off Chrysalis, though he was nowhere close to being in okay condition. He was soaked in a mixture of blood and water with an eight inch wide hole went through with organs showing. Against my better judgement I put him in stone with the excuse that I needed to set up medical supplies. They bought the excuse, thankfully. It appeared, though, that he was still aware of the things around him. Luna pressed for him to be released, and not wanting to start a fight, I obliged but delayed his release as long I could. After that, the human seemed to be distant, deep in thought. He kept saying he could feel something bad was going to happen. I was suspicious that this bad thing was him turning against us. So when my sister asked if the bad thing happened, I wanted to know what he was thinking. So I used my magic to read his mind. I wish I hadn't. I heard, or felt, everything. He was worried about my sister and I. He knew this bad thing hadn't happened, but he was worried if he told the truth he might live. He thought how Luna would handle his absence and hoped she would brush him off and forget about him. As for me, he was still worried that I might never trust him. Then when he thought about himself. He said that he didn't like the idea of dying, but death seemed like the best option. I thought he was joking, but as he thought further, I began to feel worse and worse, because he was kind of right. He was still, at the time, seen as a threat; he was porposeless, because we do now keep the elements closer to their bearers; and what made me feel the worst, he had no way home. I was so caught up in making sure that he wasn't going to turn against us, that I forgot he's just a teen. He didn't want to come here, he didn't even get a choice. After that he went through an unimaginable amount of pain, and still I didn't trust him. Maker, I'm a fool and I was too stupid and blind to see what a good friend he could have been. What's worse is that he was taken away from more than just his home, he was taken away from his family. Mother, father, and even siblings. I felt a surge of sadness hit me but I somehow managed to push it down for a little bit. Then he thought one last thing, "I just hope that I won't have to wait for my family in the afterlife". I had to quickly cast a spell to hide the tears that streamed down my face. Celestia paused to let the tears flow off her face and onto the bed instead of the pages. After a shuddering breath, she continued. The three of us, Luna, Logan, and myself, walked down to a party Pinkie Pie had throw just for him. Sadly he didn't get enough time to enjoy it. Changelings showed up and resurrected Leo, the first human to come here. Last time that I saw him he was nothing but a burned pile of ash. However, using Logan as a template age and Leo's spirt as the form, he was brought back and still had his powers. Leo flew off into the night, following changelings who would give their life to bring back the human army. With the changelings' size and magic, I fear that the human army may be up to full strength soon. My sadness was put aside with rage against Leo, and against Logan. In my mind I blamed Logan for all of this, when none of it was. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw changelings preparing a spell. From my numerous years with magic, I could easily identify that it was sealing spell. The user dies in order to wipe away a magic code to break the time early, in short there is no way of knowing how long Logan will be gone. But there was something different in the spell, the part of the spell that prevents aging was missing from it. Replaced with a simple teleportation spell. Why? I have no clue. The attack hit Logan sealing him away for however long the users magic can hold out. If he's lucky, the changelings were starving with no love to feed on from the changelings' last attack. And now here I am, telling Luna that he's dead so she can let go easier, and just sitting in my room. Of all the things, I think the worst part is that this is my fault, I saw that attack and had the warning. The worst is dealing with the guilt that I could have saved him, but because of my anger, I didn't. Author's Note There you have it.

A Short "To Do" List, and a TherapistLogan looked around him for, what he counted to be, the seven hundred nineteenth time. The darkness quickly drove him insane; to keep himself from going to full shutdown mode, he began looking at things differntly. He smiled to the darkness as it was everything to, and for him. One would think the darkness could only break an individual, but instead, Logan let it build him up. Something so shunned and simple, was also the most peaceful, inspiring, and comforting. The darkness was everything to him. The simplicity of the darkness became familiar, and made him feel at home after a while. The darkness was there when he fell asleep, and it was there when he woke up. It always remained pleasant, suttle to wake, yet urged him to sleep. As the time between rest and wake passed he would feel lonely, so the darkness comforted him and kept him company, wrapping it's arms around him in a warm hug. The darkness told him to make the best of things, telling him if something seemed bad it could be made better. He just needed to appreciate the things he had, even if there weren't that many. Though he did his best to stay positive, there were moments when positive attitude fell through, but just for a split second. This split second seemed like nothing at first, but slowly that split second added up to a full second, which added up to a minute, which added up to an hour. When his positive mood fell, his sanity slowly fell with it. Each time he lost a small piece of his sanity, and sooner or latter, those pieces would make a whole. In short, the sane would eventually become insane. To keep his mind of his situation he did the one thing he could do in this darkness: exercise. Push-ups, sit-ups, running and others that didn't require equipment. It worked better than he expected, when he was done he would usually fall do the one other thing he could do: sleep. Since his body stayed on his internal clock, he could count the days. And so he fell into the repetition, wake up, admire darkness, exercise, go to sleep. It was his "to do" list for every day; it didn't bother him all that much, because he didn't have to expect anything different. Some might say it was boring, he would say it was orderly and calm. But was it really all worth it? He knew eventually he would go insane, so why was he doing this? Just so he could delay the inevitable? He thought about the question. Probably because he wanted to savor every moment of his sanity. He better enjoy it now, because based on the fact that he was already asking himself a question, his sanity was going faster than he thought. Logan sighed as he finished the last of his exercise and lay down on the cool, black ground. Hopefully he would keep exercising even after he went insane. It was a good thing the darkness kept him full, but he still missed the taste of even some of his least favorite foods. Another plus was that the since the darkness kept nutrients going, the exercise he had been doing was begining to show. He could tell the his muscles were getting bigger, not by alot, but noticeably bigger. Logan snapped himself out of his train of thought, if he countined he might throw of his internal clock. He could continue his thoughts tomorrow. After all, he had eternity. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Celestia paced back and forth in the throne room, her brow furrowed in frustration and worry. She put her head up for a moment, and for a second her secretary had a glimmer of hope she had gotten over her troubles. This hope was quickly wiped away when Celestia put her head back down and continued pacing. "Come now Princess Celestia," her secretary scolded, "This worring isn't healthy." "For both me and my sister," Celestia said quietly. "Please princess, worry not about your sister. I have been in your place before." "Really?" "Yes, in fact it was just a month ago my sister lost her husband. He left peacefully in his sleep." paused and frowned at the floor, "Poor girl, she just stayed in their bedroom, staring at photographs of him. She kept herself holed up for two and a half weeks, but she came out smiling. All she kept saying was, 'he's in a better place now' but it was for the best." "Luna is different. Loosing such a good friend to her is hard, especially when she only has her personally guards as her two other good friends." The secretary sighed, "I know, everypony is different. This, however, has gone on far enough though. I think you should get Princess Luna a psychologist, or a therapist of some sort to help her." "It's bold of you to make a suggestion like that to me," Celestia said, "Why did you say it though?" "Because when one Princess is sad, the other is too. It's like your one pony with the same emotions in two differnt places. And when a Princess isn't happy, I'm not happy." "Thankyou for your concern, Miss Quill." Celestia said, "I think a therapist would do Luna some good." A week later Luna was rearranging a section of the night sky on he balcony when she heard a knock on her door. "It's open," Luna called. She quickly turned her head to see her sister, and then turned back to her work. "Are you feeling any better, Luna?" Celestia asked. Luna paused for a second then continued. "I don't want to talk about it. Okay?" Luna said in a monotone. Celestia paused for a second, "Luna, are you almost done with the stars?" "Just one more thing... done." Luna declared. "Good, you have somewhere to be." Celestia levitated a small piece of torn paper of to her sorrowful sister. Luna looked at it in puzzlement, "What is '106, Cornfield lane'?" "The place you need to be in an hour," Celestia said, "You can go there and not say a word, or you can let the pony do his job and help you." She left before Luna could speak. Luna looked down at the writing again and mouthed the words as if they had a deeper meaning. She sighed and, instead of flying, she decided to walk. Hammer and Anvil followed her down the hall, but she waved her hoof to dismiss them for the night. She walked the rest of the journey with her head down in silence: only looking up to check street names. She stopped at fairly large building with many windows, all of which were completely dark with the exception of one on the second story that was dimly lit. "Must just be getting up," Luna said to herself. She walked through the front door which lead to a main lobby. there was red carpet, plants in the corners of the room and a large 'Y' shaped staircase. She walked up the stairs, that were also red carpet, and turned left down a hall with green carpet and black granite tiles at the edges. Doors were mostly glass with a wooden frame painted white. Each door had a set of white alminum blinds, easily retractable with a thin rope and could be folded closed by twisting a plastic rod. Besides the dimly lit hallway one other room was brightly lit. There was a plastic slip-in sign with black letters next to the door. Room 16 Doctor Peaceful Joy Luna Raised an eyebrow mildly suspicious of the name; never the less, she opened the door and quietly. She was now in a room with two lamps and a light on the opposite wall. There was a couch and and foreleg chair cornering a dark brown coffee table with an unlit candle in on top. The walls were brown with designs of diferent shades of light brown in verticle merging lines, and the carpet was a deep red. The first room lead to a small hall with one door at the end and another at the begining of the hall. A mare unicorn mare stepped out from the closer door; she had deep blue eyes, a very dark purple mane and tail straight with a curl at the end, and to top it off, a purple coat a little darker than Twilight's with an ancient equestrian symbol, meaning healthy mind, life, and future, for a cutie mark. "Hello," she said quietly with a smile, "My name is Peaceful Joy, but you may call me what you feel comfortable with." "I am Luna, but please leave Princess out. Besides I do not deserve to hold the title with my current state." "Nonsense, you are much better that you think. Please, come in." Joy motioned into the room she came out. Luna had to admit it was cozy, the carpet was down to a deep green but wall was the same; however, the room was dimly lit which made it feel very warm, like a second home. There were two light brown foreleg chairs next to eachother and a deep red felt couch with one large seat that was buttoned in a grid pattern. It was rounded, like tub that was missing one side, with two cotton circular pillows: both of which had a button in the center. The two foreleg chairs both of which were blocky in shape but rounded on the seat and foreleg rests. "Please, have a seat and relax." said Joy. Luna took up her offer and layed belly down on the couch, while her unicorn therapist seated herself oposite on the foreleg chair. "I just want to make it clear that I don't have any problems about him." Luna said. "About who?" Joy said confused, "I was told that your job may be stressing you out. Your sister sent me a picture of the stack of papers on your desk when she sent me the scroll." "I'm sorry," Luna apologized, "I just thought it was about something else." "Well a breakup isn't that bad when you realize what good came out of it." Joy replied, "And this stallion wasn't good enough for you. Good riddence." "Well it wasn't really a breakup, or a pony." Luna corrected her, "I lost him to the universe." Joy paused, a look of confusion rested on her face. "Oh," she said, now somewhat aware of what happened. "I'm so sorry." Peaceful Joy saw a lone tear rolling down Luna's cheek. "Oh I didn't mean to upset you." "You know what? I think I do need to talk about it." Luna said. The unicorn took out a pencil and paper, "Start from the begining." "It was about a month and a half ago. A strange thing crashed into the Everfree Forest, that strange thing was summoned here, to Canterlot, by my sister. It was attacked and defened itself and other ponys from the maws and claws of the timberwolves. I heard this and from there I thought of this thing as either a great and powerful creater, or a vicious repulsive beast. Latter, I was awoken from a ruckus downstairs. I was in a daze and didn't realize what I was looking at, and zoned out trying to remember what was going on. I remembered my sister said that the creature was dangerous, called a human, and that it was much different than a pony. I put those three things together and paniced. I charged my shot and fired. He went from in a dent to a deep hole in the wall. I regained my senses waiting for it to emerge, my magic ready. Out from the hole, the human came, and it looked so ridiculous." Luna began to giggle with tears starting to roll. "What?" Joy said confused. "Picture this, his skin was light and pale white in some places he was wearing a shirt that was like a 'T' and baggy jeans that had tears and holes. He was about 5' 5'', a few inches shorter than me. His hair was brown with a small hint of blond and it was about an inch or so long, all messy, and stuck up in the back a little. Best of all, he had the most stupid look on his face; he went from shocked to supprised and other odd faces." Luan snickered, "I kept my laugher in until he started making jokes about my sister." "So, you liked him?" "Oh, very much!" Luna giggled. "So what happened to him?" Joy finally asked, "How did he go?" "Well, because he took down the changeling queen, I did soften her defenses, Pinkie Pie decided to throw him a party." "Please tell me he got to enjoy his own party." Luna shook her head, "Sadly the remaining changelings used him to bring back an old enemy. Ironically, this Leo that came back, was nothing like Logan. It's like they were complete opposites. While Logan was mildly quiet and goofy looking, Leo was much more strong and loud. He had black, long flowing hair, with great muscle tone. He really looked serious, he had brown eyes and determination was in them. After an the excruciatingly painful process of using Logan to bring back Leo, they swirled Logan up into a magic tornado and ripped him into oblivion." "I'm so sorry," Joy said. "I'm sure he's happier now," Luna said. "But I still am having trouble getting over the loss." "Well, it's clear that after so long with out loosing a friend. This has the same weight of looing the first friend. Luna, have you ever heard the phrase 'With old friends comes new friends'?" Luna shook her head, "What it means is that when old friends go you make new ones." "I don't think that will work since I can't really make many friends." "Your sister says you always have had two with you at all times. Two in armor." Joy hinted. "Oh how could I forget my two ruffians?!" Luna smiled excitedly. "You were fine before Logan was here and you can still be happy even after he's left." "Yes... you're right. Thankyou Miss Joy. Now, there is still the problem of his belongings." "What's the problem?" Joy asked, confused. "Well old things tend to give me some nostalgia." Luna said, "And his belongings could be considered precious artifacts, so I can't throw them away." "Why don't you just look through them and then just put it away, this, also, will help you move on." "That sounds... okay." Luna said unsurely. "Don't worry you'll be fine. It may seemed flawwed, but trust me it works." "I'll come back to you for some help if it doesn't," Luna said standing up. She shook Peaceful Joy's hoof and walk out. As she was heading home she noticed a few stars out of place. Luna felt the peace of the night come to her, and cut out the sad memory of Logan and bring it to those stars. She moved them into place to fit with the night sky: each seemed to protest the change. But, Luna looked at her work and thought the sky looked beautiful and better than before, and any other pony up that night would agree. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "My lord, we have found it." "So, what's the problem? Why tell me? Just do it!" "Well the passage is blocked by a rock and..." "Where are we now?" "The gem fields, my lord." "Dig under it you fools. Make a tunnel. In fact, connect it with the main." "Yes, my lord." "Once that water is secured, nothing with be able to stop me. Not the Purple one, not the blue one, not even Celestia." Author's Note There is a Romeo and Juliet Refference somewhere in there. Find it put it with the quote from the book. If you dare!
Luna's rageFor Luna it was a regular night, raise the moon, look through court duties, then have some free time. Luna had decided to play Battlepony 3, she always did it seemed. Going around the maps, getting into jets, then crashing them into some building on purpose. "Is there any time that a princess can have to herself?" she ask to the guards that were on the sides of the door. The guards didn't answer as always. Most ponies were in bed at night and almost always outside in the day except for the few who stayed up late or preferred to sleep in the day. Luna sighed, the princess of the night didn't have as many admirers as Tia. the only friends she really had were her personal guards and the Elements of Harmony. She sighed again. 'Isn't there anypony that regular to be my friend,' Luna thought to herself' or somepony that understands my slight rejection' sadly she couldn't think of any. She groaned in frustration and shifted on the pillow she was laying on trying to find a more comfortable spot. She could try using the internet cheering up at the thought. Then again there could be some creeps out there stalking her. Luna then remembered that no pony really liked her. Luna groaned again, with each unhappy thought she had the less comfortable her pillow felt. Luna let out big long sigh and let her face fall into her pillow. She heard a knock on her door. "What?" she said, her voice muffled a little by the pillow. She heard the door open then light hoofsteps. It was Celestia she knew it. Using her magic she tossed a pillow in the direction of the hoofsteps, hearing it hit its mark square in Celestia's face. Luna knew what was coming next, with her face still in the pillow she put her front hooves up in the air and caught the pillow. "First of all, you need to work on your aim," Luna said, "Second, you need to work on your stealth. Now what do you want sister?" Luna lifted her head to see an annoyed scowl on Celestia's face. "I want to know what your so upset about," Celestia said, "Your moaning and groaning really loud and it's keeping me up, so what's the problem?" "Nothing is wrong," snapped Luna, "And I wasn't groaning." Celestia gave her a questioning look. "Okay I was groaning," correcting herself, "But was it really that loud?" she looked at the guards who immediately started nodding rapidly. Luna looked at Celestia who had a victorious smile on her face "Uhg! So what!" Luna snapped "If I don't help you, you keep groaning," said Celestia, "You keep groaning, I don't fall asleep. I don't get any sleep I get cranky." Luna could see her sister's reasoning, neither of them would want the other tired and cranky. "So what's up?" Celestia asked again, then she smile mischievously and added, "Don't know how to tell a certain stallion how you feel?" Luna went red in the face and before she could speak Celestia added, "Or is it a mare." "Oh you are SO dead!" Luna shouted lunging at Celestia. At this point Celestia couldn't help herself, she stuck out her tongue and crossed her eyes then laughed. This was too much for the guards to handle and they began to laugh. It took a few minutes before Luna finally pined Celestia. "Alright, alright," Celestia said barely able to breathe from her laughing, "You got me." Luna got off Celestia and there was a long pause while they lowered their breathing to normal. "Now," Celestia started, "What's up?" "No pony likes me the way they like you," Luna said sadly "Of course they do." Celestia said. "Name one besides Twilight and her friends!" Luna challenged. Celestia was about to speak but then close her mouth. Celestia thought making a pained face every time she eliminated a pony. Finally she look at Luna with a face that told her she ran out of ponies. "See!" Luna exclaimed, "They love you and they... ignore me!" "We like you," the guards said "There," Celestia said, "Not one, but two ponies." Celestia trotted to the door. "But they're my-," too late Celestia close the door as she left the room, "Guards." "Guards?" said one of them, "I thought you said we were your friends." "Oh, you are" Luna said as she put on a puppy face and gave them each a hug. "We have lost the objective." the TV said. looking over to the TV Luna saw the match was in her favorite map Operation Firestorm. Both guards new she never died on Operation Firestorm not once and both of them had a big smile as Luna started to tear through anyone in her way. Luna decided to run along a highway road, no pony ever used it. "I am going to-" Luna's sentence was cut short when a bullet hit her character right in the face. The guards couldn't believe what they just saw Luna had her first death on Operation Firestorm. She never had been killed in all the hundreds of matches on Operation Firestorm. All three look to see the killer 'hotthorns (870MCS) NightRuler1000'. "From where?!" Luna shouted. All the way across the map on a mountain with a flash suppressor, x6 rifle scope, and slugs. "Lucky!" Luna got back in the game and had to wait a while before getting into a jeep. got to the base of the mountain she assumed hotthorns was on. as her jeep was bouncing up and down going up the hill she was killed again. 'hotthorns (870MCS) NightRuler1000' "Again!"Luna shouted, this time he was across the map near her base shooting out the side of a support helicopter. "Nooooooo!" Luna respawned in her base, the enemy can't go in her base for more than 10 seconds she smiled. She headed towards the jets and was close but just before she could get in 'hotthorns (ACB-90) NightRuler1000' she got knifed and hotthorns jumped into her jet and took off. She once again respawned this time on a point away from the base she was safe until an enemy with a stolen jet rammed straight into her and the ground 'hotthorns (Su-35BM Flanker-E) NightRuler1000' "Oh buck no!" Luna breathed. Luna continued to struggle not once killing hotthorns each kill made her angrier at one point she almost had him but he shot her with an M1911. Each time she got killed she shouted 500% tickets gave a lot of time. Celestia stormed in "Turn down your game and voice for the love of-" Celestia stopped and looked at the scoreboard and saw Luna had almost 127 kills of course it was her best map, she never died on it, not once but then she looked at Luna's deaths. She swore she felt her jaw hit the floor and go through it, Luna the number one best Battlepony 3 player in all of Equestria had 78 deaths. "B-b-but who..." Celestia stuttered, "and how?!" "All of my deaths have been from-" *pew* Luna died again, "him" 'hotthorns (870MCS) NightRuler1000' Celestia looked at the dog tags, on the left was an M1911 on the right was an 870MCS. "How is he so good?" Celestia asked, "That must be his best weapon how many kills has he got with the 870MCS?" "I don't know." Luna said, "But I used magic to scan him he isn't using hacks" *pew* both sisters looked at the right dog tag '870MCS kills 2059'. The sisters knew what must be done, both used their magic to use a spell that makes a pony so lucky nothing can stop them. The sisters cast the spell and an evil smile on each face appeared Luna shot no scope the whole way to where she was last killed from each time killing somepony but not hotthorns. She finally got to where hotthorns had killed her from and saw him. Luna picked up a USAS-12 buckshot extended mag and full mag. she fired at close range as hotthorns ran from cover to cover until she was out of ammo. she was taking out her pistol and then... 'hotthorns (DEFIBRILLATOR) NightRuler1000' "WHAT!" they both shouted. The unstoppable spell had just been stopped. hotthorns was jumping up and down this made Luna's anger boil over. Sparks of lightning were charging on her horn. When Celestia saw this she knew something bad was going to happen, "GET OUT NOW!" she screamed. the guards and Celestia got out of the room and as far as possible. Luna was looking at hotthorns through the death cam "THINK YOUR SO GOOD HUH?!" she screamed, "WELL HOW DO YOU LIKE THIS!" using all she had, she shot a bolt of lightning at the TV. It took one second fully drain her, she looked up the TV was somehow still working but she got her anger out. Luna smiled, the fainted.
From bad to worseAs he started to regain consciousness, Logan could hear birds chirping, bugs buzzing, and the sound of sparking electricity. He couldn't see yet so he felt a little insecure, something could sneak up on him and he might not even realize it. As Logan stopped worrying about things he couldn't see, he noticed a tingling feeling throughout his body, 'My limbs must have fallen asleep,' Logan thought to himself. He couldn't feel what he was laying on but he assumed it was his bed, that would make sense, he got tired and went to bed with his clothes on, yeah. He had done that before, but that still didn't explain the sound of sparking electricity. Logan still couldn't see, or could he just not open his eyes? He moved away from the question and towards what happened last night. He couldn't really remember sadly. Logan started cheering up when he started to regain his vision, it was taking a while for his eyes to adjust to the light. "Muhhh too bright," he whined. His vision finally fully adjusted so he could see where he was, he could only see the sky and the tops of a few trees. 'A forest?' Logan thought to himself, 'Why am I in a forest? And what the hell happened last night' Then it all started coming back to him. He remembered playing Battlefield 3... and... owning someone called... called... Night something... NightRuler... it had a number after it, 10? no, 100? no no no it was 1000. NightRuler1000, Logan remembered running into her all game long and owning her. 'But why am I in a forest?' Logan asked himself. Then he remembered one time after NightRuler1000 somehow managed to miss every single USAS-12 shot, he ran up to her and killed her with the defibrillator. After that, the TV started sparking then shot out electricity. It picked him up off the ground and made his body collapse in on itself as he was sucked into the TV. But how does sucked into a TV equal land in forest. He finally sat up and looked around he was in a deep hole. Then something more terrifying, he wasn't in a hole he was in a very deep crater, and a fresh one by the looks of it. the crater was at least a quarter mile in diameter and small fires were still burning in some spots and he was in the center of it. At this point Logan couldn't stay up longer, he fell forward onto his stomach with his head to the right he saw his backpack was burned but not too badly, the contents inside were visible and still intact. Going back to his previous thoughts, he looked around his peripheral vision and noticed something different about himself and his environment, it looked like he was in a cartoon. 'But why-' Logan's thought was cut off from the sound of two girls chatting. "I'm telling you, I saw something fall out of the sky!" one said in a load tone. "Oh, uh so did I but, that doesn't mean that it couldn't have been a dream." the other said in a quiet tone. Logan tried to pull himself up he got a little of the ground on his hands and knees only to slump back down with a "Uhg!" "What was that?" the loud one asked. Then Logan heard someone give a little shriek of fright "EEP!" "Hey!" the loud one shouted, "We found something!" A frightening thought popped into Logan mind 'What if I'm dead and I'm in Heaven, or Hell!' As the three girls got closer he could hear the sound of hoofsteps. 'Must be riding horses' Logan thought unable to muster any energy to look at them. "What is it." one the loud one said. "I'm not sure," a different voice sounding intelligent said, "But it must be a new species, think of the scientific quality! I must report this to Princess Celestia!" "But first we need to help it," the shy one said, "Look at it, it's all cut up and bleeding." She was right Logan now noticed how many wounds he could feel and they were massive some even on his face he ignored them again. Logan heard hoofsteps leading to his backpack then he could see a cyan colored hoof start to poke his backpack "What is this thing?" the loud rider of the cyan horse said. "Please, don't touch that," Logan said "AHH!" *BAM* the cyan horse bucked Logan in the back sending him skipping across the ground 15 feet before he slowed and ended on his back, looking to the left with his right arm over his stomach. "It's nice to meet you too," Logan said in a painful quiet voice, then coughed up some blood. Logan looked over to see three small horses, no a lavender unicorn and two pegasi one butter colored with a pink mane and tail, the other cyan colored with a rainbow mane and tail. "Rainbow Dash," the butter colored pegasus scolded, "You hurt him," the pagasus went over to Logan and started petting his face "There, there," she said, "It's okay." Logan coughed again with blood "Coughing up blood probably means I'm *cough* dying and I don't think dying is *cough* okay. Nor is talking horses" "We're ponies," said the butter colored pegasus, "I'm Fluttershy, that's Twilight Sparkle, and that's Rainbow Dash." "I'm Logan Adams," Logan said, "But you can just call me Logan" "Does he look familiar," Rainbow dash said as she walked next to Logan, "Like we saw him in a book" "Excuse me Logan," Twilight said, "But are you a human?" "Yeah," Logan replied the three ponies gasped then looked at each other the two nodded to Rainbow Dash who put up a front hoof to knock out Logan. Logan sighed in frustration as he knew what was going to happen next, "*sigh* it's nice to meet you too," with that Rainbow knocked out Logan. *** Logan woke up with his head throbbing, he opened his eyes and saw he was on a couch, he looked around his peripheral vision not daring to move. Judging by the reaction of the ponies that knocked him out earlier, he was some threat to them and they would do it again if he woke up. He was in a library based on all the books in the room and it was obvious that there were ponies watching him. Logan listened trying to figure out how many ponies there were. It was obvious the first three that found him were watching. He heard them whispering three of them he could identify as the ones who had found him. There were three new voices now: one sounded like it was a proper upper class voice, a second one sounded like a southern accent, the third was an excited pony, 'Maybe it has ADHD like me,' Logan thought. So there were at least six of them, they sounded like they were behind a table with numerous books on it. Logan could see out of the bottom of his eyes that there was something around him. A purple colored aurora was around his legs and arms. Logan guessed it was some magic to restrain him, if talking ponies were real then magic was probably real too. If he moved he might alert the ponies he was awake. Magic could be an extension of the pony nervous system. 'I need to make them think that they're not really in control' Logan thought, 'I'll surprise them by calling them out from their hiding spot then i can reason with them to let me go. They're probably taking trash about me so I'll take a guess and call them out for that.' "You know I don't really like others talking badly about me," Logan said, "Especially if it's behind my back. Now if you six would stop hiding behind that table, I would appreciate that." Sure enough there were now six ponies and they came out from behind the table. "Twilight," an orange pony said, "I thought I told ya to tell us when he woke up." "Sorry Applejack," Twilight said, "I didn't feel him move." "And how did he know how many of us there were, and where we were hiding, and what we were talking about" a pink pony said, "Not even my pinkie sense could pick that up." "First of all," Logan said, "I recognized three voices the ones who found me would probably hang around. I heard three more unfamiliar voices telling me that all together there was six of you. It took me awhile but from your whispering i determined you were behind that table. Based on the reaction and response I got from confirming to Twilight, Rainbow, and Fluttershy I guessed you were talking mean things about me." "But how did I not sense you," Twilight asked. "It was an inference Miss. Sparkle," Logan admitted, "I have never seen or heard a talking pony, so the purple aurora must be some sort of magic. I inferred that ponies using magic to pick up objects must be able to feel them so they don't drop them, with that magic must be an extension of the nervous system. Any more Questions?" The mare stood there dumbfounded at Logan's obvious but complicated logic. Logan waited a few minutes before he finally spoke. "So, mind if I ask you a few questions?" Logan asked. the mare just shook her head, "So Who are your friends over here?" Logan asked gesturing towards the three unfamiliar ponies. Twilight spoke, "This is Applejack, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie." The Pink mare galloped over to Logan and held out a hoof. "Heh, I'd shake your hand, or hoof, but I'm a little tied up at the moment." Logan said jokingly gesturing towards the magical restraints. "Oh right," Pinkie laughed, "Twilight would you please let go of him for a sec" "But Pinkie," Twilight protested, "Humans are dangerous what if he attacks you!" "He won't I promise," Pinkie said, "Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake-" "In my eye," Logan finished, "I've heard a similar promise." When Pinkie made a Pinkie promise she kept it. "Okay," Twilight said nervously. Pinkie pie put on a rubber glove Logan decided not to question it. Twilight released Logan from the aurora and he shook Pinkie's hoof before returning his arm to his side. Twilight was again stunned as she was wrong. She forgot to restrain Logan again. "Uh Twilight," Logan said, "You forgot to uh... you know." Logan gestured to where the restraints should have been. "Oh right," Twilight said returning the magic restraints. "Twilight," said Applejack, "I don't think ya need to restrain 'im" "Of course I do," Twilight replied, "The book said humans are extremely dangerous" "But he told ya to put em on" Applejack pointed out. "Yeah, but he probably did it for something evil," Twilight snapped Logan spoke, "I did it to make you feel safe and secure. If the request or desire is reasonable enough, I will accept. It seems you fear for your life, that's a good enough reason for me." "Let him go Twilight!" Fluttershy said in a commanding voice. Fluttershy never spoke like that unless she was sure about something. "Let him go," everyone except Logan and Twilight were saying. "OKAY!" Twilight shouted, "I'll let him go!" Twilight looked at Logan then to her friends. She gave a worried sigh and released Logan... but Logan didn't move. "Uh Logan" Fluttershy started "Yeah?" Logan said "You do know that you're not restrained any more, right?" "I know" "Then why aren't you getting up?" Fluttershy asked. "I'm no doctor," Logan said, "But with the pain I felt in the crater, I'm guessing my injuries were very severe weren't they?" Logan looked at Fluttershy. "Yes," Fluttershy confirmed, "You had seven broken ribs the rest were shattered in many places, your right wrist was broken, your left upper and lower arm were broken, left ankle and upper leg were broken, you had a fractured skull and a punctured lung." "It's amazing I'm still alive! When was this diagnosis?" Logan asked. "Right away," Fluttershy said, "I knew this when I saw you, I take care of animals." "See," Logan said, "With those injuries, it's obvious that I should stay in bed, or couch, or floor until I'm fully healed, with out Fluttershy I would be dead. She saved my life." "Actually, I didn't even help you, I couldn't," Fluttershy said, "If anypony touched you, they got shocked." Logan looked down at his hands to see sparks of electricity emanating in his hands "Well that explains why Pinkie wore a rubber glove," Logan joked, "But who do I thank for saving my life?" Fluttershy paused and thought then said "Yourself, or the electricity I guess." "What do you mean?" Logan asked "Right before Rainbow Dash knocked you out, electricity started jumping all over your body." Fluttershy said, "but the electricity around your wounds made them heal rapidly. You're fully healed now." "How long did it take?" Logan ask, the other ponies now staring at Fluttershy for she was the only one who noticed. "A little less than an hour." Fluttershy said. "WHAT!" Rainbow screamed, "How come he recovers from, basically, death in an hour but it takes me days for my wing to heal?" "I don't know," Fluttershy admitted. "Maybe I'll run out of electric soon," Logan said. As if on cue, the electric on his hands dissipated. "Ooh, maybe the static charge is gone," Pinkie said who rushed forward and shook Logan's hand as hard as she could. Receiving no shock Pinkie shouted "All gone!"" and tackled Logan. Logan started tickling Pinkie "Ah ha ha! Oh no! Okay, you win!" Logan stopped. "Sorry to intrude on your fun but we've got a trian to catch," Twilight said, "Logan your coming with, the princesses want to see you." Logan stood up, now realizing how tall he was. The ponies were a little over 3/4 Logan's height. He wasn't even close to Princess Celestia's height, but he just a few inches shorter than Princess Luna. Logan and the six ponies walked to the door. "Wait," Logan said. "You know that thing I told Rainbow not to touch." "You mean that blue think with your name on it?" Rainbow asked. "Yeah," Logan said, "When you brought me here did you bring it with?" Rainbow Dash didn't reply, instead she shot off into the sky only to return with Logan's backpack moments later. "It was at my house," Rainbow said, "I thought it looked cool. You're not mad are you? "I'm not mad," Logan said, "Just please ask me if I'm conscious." Logan looked at his backpack, there were multiple holes that were burned from whatever happened. Luckily everything inside was untouched. "Looks like I'm going to need a new backpack soon." Logan chuckled. They headed off towards the train station. On the way there, ponies kept looking at Logan with ranging expressions. Some looked in disgust, others looked in awe, Then he saw three little fillies hiding in the bushes, Logan stopped. "Are they afraid of me too?" Logan asked squatting down in front of them. Applejack looked to where the fillies were hiding. "They're curious," Applejack said, "That's Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. They call themselves the-" "CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!" the three chanted. They jumped onto Logan knocking him over from his squatting position then started tickling him. "NO HAHA STOP!" Logan screamed, "NO NO! WHAT'S WITH TODAY AND TICKLING?! HAHAHAHAHA!" finally they stopped. "We stop the monster sis," Applebloom said. "I'm not a monster," Logan panted, "And shouldn't you three be in bed? It's dark out." "He's right girls y'all should be headin' off ta bed," Applejack agreed. "We don't wanna," Applebloom said. "But if you don't then how are you going to get your cutie marks tomorrow?" Logan asked, "you'll fall asleep in the middle of the day." The three gasped at this. "He right if we stay up tonight we might not have anything left to get our cutie marks tomorrow," Scootaloo said, "Let's sleep in the tree house." The three ran off and said, "goodnight!" Logan turned around with a satisfied smile only to see the six ponies with their jaws dropped. Logan started walking and they got ahead to lead the way. "How did you do that!" Fluttershy asked, "I thought only I could do that." "It's easy," Logan said, "You show them how their choice today could endanger their fun tomorrow." Finally they arrived at the train station and got on the train. Some royal guards on the train saw Logan and readied their spears, but Twilight explained that he wasn't dangerous and was with her. They made their way to the very back of the train as it began moving. "Get comfortable," Twilight said, "It's going to be a six hour train ride. It looks like Luna decided to raised to moon early tonight, we should arrive by midnight. We each get our own room, except for you." Twilight pointed at Logan. "This is the only first class car, the rest have regular seats. The back of the car is where the six rooms are. In the back of that car is the viewing car where you will sleep." Logan decided to sit on the floor since there were no seats. The mares were talking for ten minutes until Fluttershy looked out the window. "Um, excuse me," Fluttershy said, "We have a problem. Timberwolves are jumping on the train." A timberwolf howled in response. "Are timberwolves bad?" Logan asked. A timberwolf smashed through the window and swung a claw at Flutter shy who ducked just in time. "I'll take that as a yes." Logan ran forward and used his shoulder to push the timberwolf back to the window. He pushed the timberwolf far enough out that it balanced its back half out the window. Logan took his hands away just in time to see the top half of the timberwolf ripped of by a metal beam spilling green timberwolf blood out the window. "Where are the guards?" Logan asked. The only two guards on the train burst through the door fighting two timberwolves. One of the guards was able to kill one of the timberwolves, the other timberwolf took a long swing and knock both guards over and on of them unconscious. Now with out a spear the conscious guard was defenseless, he closed his eyes. The timberwolf raised his claw, ready to avenge his fellow timberwolf. Then he heard a yelp of pain. The guard opened his eyes to see Logan with his fellow guards spear through the timberwolf's stomach. "Not today you ugly hunk of wood," Logan grunted as he pushed the squirming timberwolf to the open door leading to the coupling. Logan finally got the timberwolf on the edge of falling off. "Sorry I can't stay and chat," Logan said, putting his foot on the timberwolf's chest "But we have a serious infestation to get rid of." Logan put weight on his foot and pushed the timberwolf off the spear. and went back in. Then stopped, he didn't hear a crunching sound. Logan went back to the coupling to see the timberwolf belly up just barely holding onto the sides of the cars. "Get lost, you stupid hitch hiker!" Logan shouted, and he whacked the timberwolf on the nose with the butt of the spear. The timberwolf clutched his nose in pain, then realized he had let go of the train. Logan jumped back, barely dodging the blood splatter that came up from the wheels. Logan turned to the guard who just stared at him not sure if he could trust the human or not. "You stay here and protect them." Logan said pointing at the guard. "But-" the guard started. "Look," Logan said, "You're small to them. I'm close to their height. Plus you don't look like you're determined to fight. Besides, you got any better ideas?" The guard shook his head. "Exactly, now protect them." Logan ran into the next car to see a timberwolf trying to find a pony to eat, that were all hiding under their seats. "Hey dog," Logan said, holding up his spear, "Fetch the stick." The timberwolf ran at him and leaped up. Logan held up the spear ready to block the incoming attack. The timberwolf swiped his claw down and knocked off the spear head. Logan looked at the headless spear then at the timberwolf and smiled nervously. The timberwolf roared and swung his claws at Logan who backed up until he was at the edge of the car. Out of options Logan took the headless spear and whacked the timberwolf on the head breaking off a tenth of the spear. The timberwolf went cross eyed, Logan hit him on the head again and again slowly reducing the spear until all he had was the butt of the spear. Logan slipped off his shoe and hit the timberwolf one last time on the head with it killing it from all the head trauma. Logan now needed a new weapon. Timberwolves were made of wood so and axe or hatchet might be good. "Are there any lumberjack ponies that have an axe or hatchet on them that I could use?" Logan asked. "I do," a pony said, "But why should I give them to you. "Either you give me a weapon," Logan said, kneeling down to seem less intimidating, "Or I go in there trying to save your friends with my bare hands." The pony considered this then said, "Okay" then handed Logan a bag, "Inside is an axe and two hatchets." "Great," Logan said, clipping the hatchets in their holsters to his side belt loops then picking up the axe, "Let's cut some wood." Logan walked to the next car and found three timberwolves who didn't notice him. One nearest to him was about to take a bite out of a pony. Logan tapped him on the shoulder, the timberwolf turned around and saw the axe too late. Logan hit him square in the side of the face ripping most of his head off. The other two timberwolves looked at him and charged. The first one Logan dodged to his left using his left hand to bring the axe down on the timberwolf while his right hand unclipped the hatchet on his left side from its holster. Dodging the second one to his right, he took the hatchet out of its holster and swung it underhand into the timberwolf's throat. Logan rushed over and removed the axe from the timberwolf's back and the hatchet from the others neck which spurted blood into his face. "Uhg, yuck, nasty!" Logan shouted in disgust. After Logan wiped some of the green blood off his face, he saw a pony with a claw wound. "Nothing hurts innocent ponies!" he yelled. Logan ran into the last car before the engine. There were five timberwolves. Logan gave a mighty yell and swung his axe down on the first timberwolf's head, splitting it in two. He let go of the axe still lodged in the dead timberwolf, and brought out a hatchet in each hand. He ran at a second timberwolf and lodged the hatchet in his right hand in the timberwolf's chest. The timberwolf wasn't dead though and clawed Logan two times before Logan pulled out the hatchet and hit the timberwolf in the same spot killing it. Logan pulled out the hatchet once again and spotted the third timberwolf and noticed it had a thin spot in in its upper arm. The third timberwolf hadn't reacted yet, Logan saw his opportunity and seized it. Logan threw the hatchet and hit the timberwolf right in the weak spot breaking of the timberwolf's arm. The timberwolf clutched the nub of where his arm used to be and stumble backwards out the door and fell off sucked under the train with a crunch, splat. "Hey look at that," Logan said, "He finished himself off, so I didn't have to." The fourth timberwolf lunged at Logan. Logan backed up a little and let the timberwolf land. Before it could lunge again, Logan swung the hatchet and hit it in the head hard enough to hit and go through it. Logan lost his grip on the hatchet after it went thorough and it stuck to the wall just above a hiding pony. Logan flinched "Ooh sorry!" The mare gave a small smile as a way of saying apology accepted. Logan removed his axe from the first timberwolf he had killed and ducked to let the fifth timberwolf leap over him in a failed tackle. Logan swung the axe over his head and chopped through both legs. The timberwolf hit the gound and was bleeding fast enough that he would be dead in a minute. "It's seems you have lost your legs," Logan said, "You probably know that already." Logan's taunting was interrupted by a scream from the engine. He grabbed the axe and hatchets then ran to the next door and looked at the coal car. There was supposed to be a ladder, and there was... well part of it was gone. It was a little off to the right side and only the top bar was remaining. It was so high it would be impossible. "Aw god dammit!" Logan cursed. Logan knew he only had one shot at it. He jumped... and got it. He was pulling himself up when a beam the train was passing under almost took his head off. Logan pulled himself up the rest of the way and slid down the hill of coal. 'That would have been a fail,' Logan thought to himself, 'take the life threatening jump and make it only to be killed by a beam.' Logan got to the engine to see a timberwolf bigger and buffer than the others he killed. It was chasing the engineer around the engine and kept missing. 'Well that explains why the train didn't stop,' Logan thought to himself. He had to find someway to weaken its strategy if it even had a strategy, make it mad. "Come here you stupid pony!" It growled. "Oh good it can talk," Logan said. "Of course I can," it said, "I'm the top alpha." "Good," Logan said, "Then you'll understand this, you"re going to be easier to kill than you stupid friends." The timberwolf launched a Logan who got out of the way just in time. 'This timberwolf is fast,' Logan thought, dodging another attack then slamming the hatchet in the timberwolf's back, 'and his wood is thick everywhere except for his head' "You think you can kill me with those?" the timberwolf mocked, gesturing to the axe and hatchets. "Ehhh... probably," Logan said 'His wood is thick,' Logan thought, 'I'm going to have to shave it down since I can't get a clear hit on his head' Logan ran at the timberwolf blocking an attack with the handle of the axe then swung under and took out a chunck of the wood. He backed up and noticed the timberwolf clutching the spot Logan hit. It took its claws away for a moment to look at it, just enough time for Logan to throw a hatchet into the wound. The timberwolf tossed the hatchet away to reveal that he was bleeding. The timber wolf launched at him again this time knocking him on his back. It reached down to grab Logan, but Logan grabbed the hatchet the timberwolf tossed aside and hit it in the left claw. The timberwolf leaned back exposing its chest. Logan quickly got up and took another hard swing at its stomach. The blow was hard enough to make another bleeding wound and knock the timberwolf on his back. Logan saw his big opportunity and using his strength and momentum he swung down on the timberwolf's chest. One hit, bleeding, two hits, a bleeding wound again, Logan gave the third hit which was bleeding more than the others. The timberwolf struggled, trying to get up until it lay still. "I... think... it's... dead..." Logan panted. He walk back up the hill of coal to see a mare repair the ladder. "Better late then never" Logan climbed down the ladder and made his way to the third car. "Hear is your axe and hatchets," Logan said to the lumberjack pony, "Let me just clean them off and-" Logan stopped to see the pony was staring towards the door he just came from. Logan looked over to see the timberwolf and all the ponies from the first two cars behind curious to see what was going to happen. "How many times do I have to kill the same sinking timberwolf?!" Logan shouted. The timberwolf lunged but Logan got dodged it, bringing the axe down on the timberwolf's back. The timberwolf stumbled into the last car. The guard started toward the timberwolf but stopped when he saw Logan deliver a crushing blow to the chest followed by a whack to the stomach, side, then another blow to the chest. The timberwolf stumbled back onto the round porch like viewing spot on the very back of the train. The timberwolf looked at Logan but didn't move. All that ponies, except for the engineer, were watching the timberwolf and Logan. "I done fighting you," Logan said standing about 35 feet from the timberwolf, "Lights out, bitch." Logan held the axe by the bottom in his right hand and threw it. *Thunk* the axe had split most of the timberwolf's head in two, but the timberwolf was still standing. Logan walked to the timberwolf, removed the axe, then pushed the timberwolf off the back with his right foot. The timberwolf hit the tracks and was torn limb from limb. Logan turned around and found all the passengers were staring at him in aw. He walked over to the lumberjack pony and cleaned the blood of the axe and hatchets with his shirt, then gave them back to the lumberjack pony. Logan looked at himself, his shirt and pants were soaked with timberwolf blood and his own. His shirt and pants now had even more holes in them, some of the holes burned from his entry into this world, and now some from timberwolves. Logan walked to the back ledge to where he pushed the timberwolf off, then he looked at all the ponies still watching him. Logan sat down leaning his back on the bars of the railing and spoke. "Boom, head shot." Logan said and fell asleep from exhaustion.
Every Decision has a Consequence, Even if it is the Right DecisionThe six ponies watched as Logan ran out the room with the sound of firing magic trailing after him. Twilight took one step to go after him but was stopped by Applejack. "He's going to get himself killed." Twilight said. "Sometimes you gotta make sacrifices," Applejack said in a quiet tone, "And Logan isn't one of the Elements of Harmony." "If we solve the riddle quickly we might be able to help him before he gets killed." Rainbow Dash pointed out, "Twilight, do you have a spell that can replay the riddle?" Twilight nodded and her horn began to glow. A projection of Discord popped up on the floor and the riddle was said once again. Here and there and all throughout Magic played roles with out a doubt. But sides must be chosen in this world and through out history this still shows. To find your princess you must see both sides to see through the tinted vision of the one who knows. "Well that's nice," Pinkie Pie said, "The riddles large so it has a bunch of details. Now if we get it wrong we'll at least be close!" "I don't think that is how it works, Pinkie dear," Rarity pointed out. Twilight was hopping from hoof to hoof impatiently, "Can we please get started?!" The other mares nodded. "Now we need to start with a location. Some general area where we can start." "Well most things are too broad," Rainbow said, "Sides could be anywhere, but history is everywhere and so is magic!" "What about tint?" Fluttershy cut in. "Ah don't know," Applejack said, "But the princess is most likely trapped in something or an object. That means that we jus' need to find something that has everything in the riddle." "Good thinking Applejack," Twilight said, "Now can any pony think of something tinted?" "Ooooh, I know!" Pinkie burst, "A wine bottle!" "But that doesn't match the description well." Rainbow said, "A thing like that wouldn't help you remember the history of the night before and it makes you see funny." "What about a gem?!" Rarity said, "A gem enhances magic, and it's tinted." "But still no history," Twilight said. "I hate history!" Pinkie blurted out, "It get's repetitive." A light went on in Twilight's brain but she needed to be sure if it was right. "How is it repetitive?" Twilight asked. "Well hasn't Chrysalis attacked Canterlot before, and hasn't Discord given us a riddle before, hasn't a princess been trapped in an object before, haven't they all been evil when they returned, hasn't a human been to equestria before?" Pinkie's questions were answered by mumbles of yes, "See history repeats itself." "But it hasn't," Twilight said, "Chrysalis didn't go after Cadence like last time. So the Princess isn't in the historic gem mines, the only other place with written history is the library!" "Not true Twilight," Rarity stopped her, "The windows to the Elements detail history. "And they show us using the MAGIC of friendship!" Pinkie shouted. "And there also tinted windows for color," Fluttershy said. "But where does the, both sides of magic and the seein' through the eyes of the one who knows, fit in?" Applejack asked. "No clue which ponies know?" Pinkie asked to nopony in general. "Not ponies," Twilight said, "Pony, only one knows, Chrysalis. Which means a few things, the princess was either caught off gaurd and was imprisioned before she knew what was going on; or she lost some memory, possibly from head trauma." Pinkie for some reason began laughing. "Look, I found one withe Chrysalis on it, her eyes are a funny color." The puzzle was solved for Twilight, "I've got it! Discord didn't mean sides of magic, he meant sides on the window, we need magic to get Celestia out. History is talking about these windows telling the history. Tinted vision talked about how the windows are colored, and the only one who knows is Chrysalis. Look at where her eyes are pointing." Twilight made a line with her hoof from Chrysalis's eye to a window across the hall. The window across the hall showed Celestia raising the sun. Twilight fired an unlock spell but nothing happened. Then Raibow Dash cut in, "Maybe Celestia is stuck in a certain place and Chrysalis's eyes are looking straight at it?" Before Twilight could say anything more Rainbow Dash picked her up, flew her outside, and hovered just near the window. Twilight looked, and it was just as Rainbow Dash had thought. Looking inside through Chrysalis's eyes all Twilight could see was the tip of Celestia's horn on the window across. Twilight fired the unlock spell through Chrysalis's eyes and they formed a thin beam that made the two windows glow for a second then grow dim. Rainbow Dash took Twilight back inside both expecting to see a happy Celestia, but she was on the ground barely conscious only blood coming from her cut lip. Celestia felt terrible. She felt like no individual would ever experience this much pain. She wasn't used to even a little, she never got sick and was never really hurt in the rare attacks on Equestria. She slowly got to her hooves trying to remember what happened. Then she saw Twilight's hurt expression and knew something big happened. "Princess, do you remember anything?" Twilight asked hopeful she would say yes but was instead was met with a mumbled no. "That big meanie Chrysalis trapped you in here!" Pinkie said. A pain shot through Celestia's head as she began to remember. Chrysalis shot her in the back when she was going to do something important. "We need the elements to get Chrysalis out of here!" shouted Applejack. The elements! Celestia was on her way to get them so she could defeat something she knew about at the time, but who. "We also need to get Luna out of the moon," added Rarity. "How did Luna get in the moon?!" Celetia snapped. Fluttershy spoke, "When Chrysalis revealed herself, Luna decided to fight Chrysalis and she gave the job of attacking Chrysalis's changelings to the gaurds and Logan. "Who is Logan?" Celestia asked Twilight. "The human," Twilight replied. The human, she was going to get the elements to stop the human. "But did he help?" Celestia asked. "He was the reason we were able to find you." Twilight said, "Logan killed the last of the Changelings then distracted Chrysalis long enough for us to find you." At this Celestia was shocked. A human, helping with something so big. "Well let's go get Chrysalis, I can turn her to stone and send her out." Celestia said. She took one step and wobbled, "I'll need your help to get places." So the six ponies gathered around her moving slowly trying their best to keep her up. Inside Celestia's head choices were being made. On one hoof, last time a human came to Equetria he betrayed ponies and attacked them, giveing her the just means to turn the human to stone. On the other hoof, if it wasn't for the human, she would have never been freeed from her prison. The risk was too high she would have to turn the human to stone then release him in a cell to keep him from possibly harming other ponies. She slowly stumbled around the castle, first she saw a trail of blood, it didn't have the quality of a ponies so they knew it was human blood. They followed the blood to Luna's door. Celestia's heart was pounding; a human could be behind the door, dead. As they opened the door Celestia took in the room, it was a mess. The sheets stank of blood and the trail lead to the balcony. Celestia shuddered to think of the mess the human would make if he fell off the city from this high up. The PS3 was on, the bathroom was all wet, and little pieces of torn fabric could be seen in a few places. "Logan isn't here," Twilight said, "Let's keep moving." They walked down the hall to Celestia's room and looked inside. Celestia didn't see anything out of place except something was missing, "Where's my diary?" Celestia said aloud. The six mares gave Celestia a look of disbelief, "What? You can't remember all your life in your head," They made their to many other rooms but none seemed different. Then they got to the library. When Twilight saw it she raced over hopping from hoof to hoof. "Nonononononono" Twilight quickly said, "All these books destroyed." "Calm down Twilight," Celestia said, "All the books here can be replaced." "Ummm Ah don't mean to butt in," Applejack said, "But there's blood, and a hole in the wall." The seven looked at the bookcase Logan had fallen on then saw the hole. "I know where that lands!" Celestia shouted, and she raced off down the nearest stairs with the six ponies following behind. Celestia went as fast as she could down the hallways and stairs. She sometimes jumped the stairs gliding down with her wings the rest of the way. She finally got to the main doors and opened them. Celestia was shocked at what she saw. Chrysalis was limping up the stairs paying no attention to her, but what shocked Celestia the most was seeing the human. Celestia had thought she would be dealing with and adult, the human was just a teenager. "Logan!" The six mares shouted, but Logan didn't hear them; he was focused on Chrysalis. "Look he's hurt!" Applejack yelled. Celestia looked for the injuries and was stunned to how bad he was hurt. Logan was soaking wet, and his clothes were stained with his blood. Then Celestia saw his stomach and almost lost control of hers. A large hole went through Logan and organs were visible. Celestia felt her jaw drop as she saw Logan attack Chrysalis without hesitation. Logan was hit a few times then he delivered a blow to Chrysalis's face with his knee. After punching her more he kicked her forelegs breaking them. Chrysalis stood on her hind legs, Logan grabbed her and punched her again and again in the stomach for minutes. Celestia knew he was going to die at this rate. She had to turn him to stone to keep him alive, then set up medical equipment and other things needed to heal him when she released him. So she cast the spell to turn him to stone, but since she was still weak from Chrysalis it was taking longer. Celestia saw Logan look down at his feet aware that he was being turned to stone, then back at Chrysalis. He put his arms out to his side. Celestia didn't expect what happened next. From Logan's arms sprang electricity sharpend, his entire arm was coated in electricity and then went out from his hands one and three quater feet. Chrysalis stumbled towards him and just as she was about to fall on him he thrust both arms at her. The electricity cut through her like a knife through melted butter. Logan pulled out and stabbed again alternating arms three times. Then he stabbed her one last time with his right arm into her left torso. His arm stayed in her torso for a few seconds before the electric from his arms vanished and he pulled his arm out of Chrysalis's torso, in his hand was her heart. Logan was going to make sure she was completely dead and more. With that he crushed the heart till the remaining blood splattered all over him. Logan fell onto his back. Looking down he saw the stone was just about to get to his knees, so he tried to move but his limbs told him that they wouldn't be able to move anymore today. His arms were out his left leg made and angle to his straight right leg. Logan's head fell towards the six ponies all worried, but he instead smiled in victory. Celestia walked over to him and spoke, "I'm going to have to turn you to stone to buy us time to set up for medical treatment. I will release you then." Logan was too exhausted to argue, so he let the stone cover him. After that he dozed off with his eyes, ironically, still open.
