Chapter 3

As the sun rose over the mountain to signal the dawn of a new day,Rainbow Dash checked out of the hospital and made her way to Twilight's castle, ready to tell her friends of the encounter she had the night before. She bolted down the path leading to twilight castle watching and ponies awoke to the new day and began to set up their stands for business. Soon she saw castle friendship ahead. Charging through the castle doors, she made her way to the map room to see her friends. Each of them was surprised to see that there once injured friend now up and about like nothing happened.

After an hour of explaining the situation to her friends, the room was silent. All her friends looked to her in both awe and confusion. From Fluttershy shaking in fear, to Rarity looking like she was going to do one of her dramatic faints.

"So, not only did it come into your room," Twilight began, still grasping what she heard, "It also gave you some sort of magic bean that healed you?" While happy for her friend recovery Twilight couldn't shake the sense of unease from her mind.

Rainbow nodded her head to confirm what she already told them. "And I think it's actually a he." Everyone went wide eye and looked at Rainbow in disbelief.

Moments passed before Twilight standing up from her chair and took a breath, slowly she began to pace around in a circle while her eyes were closed as she was in deep thought. After five minutes of this Twilight took a breath of air and sighed. "I think the next course of action is simple..." the rest of the mares looked to Twilight, waiting for her to finish, "We must extend our hoof in friendship to him and induct him into our society." Everyone seemed hesitant for a while until they all nodded their heads in agreement and made their way out of the castle to begin the search for him.

As they made their way out Twilight princess instinct took control and turned to her friends. “Alright girls let's split up into groups to cover more ground.”

“Right!!” the five mares spoke in unison.

Each of them split up and began their search. Rarity, Twilight, and Applejack searched the North half of Ponyville, while Pinkie and Fluttershy took the South side.Rainbow Dash decided to scout from above. Flying high in the air to get a bird's eye view, to cover even more ground. She scanned the ground with her magenta eyes, making sure she scanned every inch of the town, not missing a single detail. Most of the residents were out and going about their day to day routine. From Sugarcube Corner to the school house where all the little fillies and colts out playing on the playground, she even saw the Cutie Mark Crusaders playing together in a game of hoof ball.

An hour had passed and there was no sign of him. Rainbow had done at least five laps around Ponyville and there was still no trace of him. 'Maybe he left and isn't even around here anyone.'

Just as she passed the Castle of the Two Sisters, something had caught her attention. She barely noticed it from the corner of her eye. Turning her she saw what seemed to be a campfire in another part of the Everfree Forest. 'Nah it's just Zecora's tree.' She turned her attention back to the town before a thought struck her. Turning her head back to the smoke, she looked once more. 'Zecora's tree isn't near the lake. It's on the edge of the Everfree.' Looking back, she saw that the smoke was indeed near the lakes edge.The same lake where she and the wonderbolts flew past on that chase. This would be a possible lead to finding the creature, turning her body she mad her way in the direction of the forest.

Slowly, she made her descent through an opening in the forest canopy, and walked toward the smoke on hoof, not wanting to lose the element of surprise if the creatures was there,it would best not to be seen coming from above. Rainbow Dash carefully walked through the dense foliage of the everfree careful not to lake make to loud a noise should her target be near.Within minutes, she was in a clearing that opened up to the edge of the lake. The water glistened in the sun's shining light, making it sparkle as it reflected the sunlight. As she stared out into the lake, a smoky and salty aroma passed her nose causing her to sniff the air. ' what Is that ?' Turning her head, she found the source of both the smoke and the aroma along with, to her surprise, the very thing she was looking for.

Sitting on top a fallen tree, in front of the open fire was the same creature from last night. Dash and remained silent in hope not to scare him off. Slowly and carefully she made her way to get closer. With ever step, her heart raced thinking what should she do once she's close enough. 'Do I just walk up and introduce myself, or do I wait until he notices me?' Each step she took made her more nervous as she got closer. ‘I'm mean not like I'm scared of anything. After all I am a wonderbolt and one of the awesome element of harmony’ Dash began to internally monologue. Only a few more steps till she's right behind him. As she drew nearer she was again met with the same aroma from before. Tilting her head ever so gently to the right, she saw what was emitting the smell. There being roasted on a few sticks were a couple of fishes near the open flames.'If he eats fish, does that mean he would also eat other kinds of meat?' She gulped quietly as she was right behind him.

Stealing her nerves Rainbow Dash to a quiet breath, and she closed the distance between her and the unknown creature. "Ahem," clearing her throat taking a step back in response. As if in response to Dash making her presence known the creator slowly turned it's head to look over its shoulder spotting Rainbow Dash. For a what felt like hours it stared at dash over its shoulder, examining her as if dumbfounded that she was there to begin with.With a slow fluid motion it moved one of its legs over the tree and the other soon followed. Turning its entire upper body, it faced her and looked directly at her. "Um, hi. I'm Rainbow Dash, and you are?" she gulped, smiling trying to stay calm and collected. The creature opened it mouth to speak.

"RUN!! TIMBERWOLVES!!!!". A loud telly carried from the across the trees could he heard. Turning their heads scream came from past the trees and, the sound of ponies yelling and crying out in fear followed after."That came from town!!" Rainbow dash took off without a second thought and made a beeline back. As she flapped her wings with all her might she soon found herself over the town. To her horror, timberwolves were running amok in the streets of ponyville,chasing ponies. Some ponies were screaming and running in fear into their homes slamming them shut to get away from the wolves.

"Everypony, get inside and barricade your doors!" Twilight was on the ground shouting as she blasted some charging timber wolves that there about to pounce on Lyra and Bon-bon. Who quickly made it into their house yanking the welcome doormat inside as they slam the door closed.

The rest of the Elements were down on the ground fighting off the carnivorous beasts as ponies ran to their homes, following Twilight’s orders. Rainbow Dash turned to see that a pack of them was chasing Derpy and one of her daughters, Sparkler. Tucking her wings in, she dove, down making a straight shot for the wolves chasing Derpy and Sparkler.

"Hey, moss for brains! Heads up!" The timber wolves turn to see Dash diving straight for them.

CRRRAAACK!!!

With a swift punch, Rainbow had smashed through them, sending the wood that made up their bodies flying everywhere. Landing next to Derpy and Sparkler, Dash turned to them, "Are you two alright?" They both nodded, smiling up at her. 'Good they're safe....wait doesn't Derpy have two foals?'

"MOMMY!!!" Before Rainbow could ask about the second child, a scream came from across the square. It was coming from the school house. Rainbow took off in the direction of the scream with Derpy and Sparkler right behind her.

"You two need to get to safety right now!" Dash yelled turning her head to them as she ran.

Derpy shakes her head "That's my other daughter, Dinky," Tears flowed down her face as she began to pick up speed in hopes of saving the filly. "I need to save her."

Dash could see the determination in her eyes that only a loving mother could give. "Fine, just stay behind me and don't get separated!" Derpy and Sparkler nodded as they ran alongside her.

Soon, Rainbow and the other two made it the school house, there they saw miss Cheerilee getting the foals inside. But out by the side of the school house, one of the fillies was chased into a corner. The young filly with grey fur and yellow mane was backed into a corner, surrounded by timber wolves. Tears filled her eyes as she tried to climb up the wall but to no avail. Before Rainbow could charge in to rescue her, another pack of wolves blocked her path and began to snarl as they came closer to her and the ponies behind her.

"MOMMY HELP ME!" Dinky cried out as the wolves were ready to pounce, their glowing green eyes fixated on the helpless filly.
Soon another pack of Timberwolves charged from the forest and stood in front of Dash the others. They snarled and made mock lunged forcing the other Dash and Derpy, and Sparkler to back away.

"DINKY!!!!!" Derpy and Sparkler yelled as they were forced back by Rainbow, who was trying to keep them safe from the ones in front of them.

One of the Timberwolves that surrounded Dinky let out a ghostly howled and darted towards her. The terrified filly was frozen in fear as the timber wolf jumped towards her. Teeth bared, it's glowing green eyes fixed on its next kill. Rainbow Dash looked away, knowing she couldn't do anything more than to keep the filly’s mother and sister away before they were next. The world was in slow motion and silent.

SMASH!!
CRACKLE!!

The sound echoed through the air breaking the silence, followed by a yelp of pain. Rainbow Dash opened her eyes and dared to see what happened to the unfortunate filly.

Her eyes widened as the timber wolf that had jumped towards Dinky was now on the ground in pieces. What once was its head was now under the foot of something else. Standing there in its orange sleeveless shirt and pants with a blue undershirt.There with its leg crushing what once was the skull of the attacking Timberwolves stood the creature.

The rest of the small pack stepped back as their comrade was now dead beneath this new creature that they've never seen before. Lifting its foot, the creature kicked away what remained and turned to the filly.

"Are you okay, little one?" Kneeling down, he stretched his arm out to her, causing her to flinch and closer her eyes. In a slow gentle movement it placed its hand on top of Dinky's head and gently began to pet it. Dinky opened her eyes and looked up to her savior who wore a warm caring smile upon his face. Dinky's fear faded away at the sight. Slowly she nodded to answer his question.

"Alright, now what do you say we get you back to your family?" Still wearing the same smile, the creature scooped the filly up in his left arm and stood up.

The remaining wolves started to growl and snarl at the intruder, angered by the sudden intrusion on their hunt, and the loss of one of their own. Slowly, they began to circle him, each on either side of him ready to pounce. Their wooden stake like fangs barred and their claws digged into the ground like a bull readied to charge. Without warning the timber wolves pounced simultaneously at the intruder that held their next meal. Bending its knees, the creature leap into the air causing two of the wolves to slam into each other with a loud crash, scattering their bodies to the floor from the collision.

Rainbow Dash looked up as the creature landed in front of her and the two ponies behind her. It's back was turned to the timberwolves that once stood in front of her. Slowly, he kneeled down placing the little filly on the ground allowing Dinky to run to her mother and sister. Derpy hugged her daughter in a warm embracing hug as tears of joy flowed down her cheeks. While Sparkler nuzzled Dinky's cheeks, happy that her sister was safe.

The remaining wolves started to growl and snarl, making their presence known once again. Once again another Timber wolf had launched itself at the creature while its it's back as was turned “LOOK OUT!!!” Dash yelled. Before the wolf could come within an inch closer the creature turned its body and swung its arm straight into the timberwolf, knocking to the side and flying straight into a tree where its body smashed into pieces. Dash and the other ponies jaws dropped as this amazing act.

One of the Timberwolves let out a long, loud howl that could be heard throughout Ponyville. In response to the howl, more timber wolves began to make their way from the town. Rainbow Dash jumped behind Derpy and her kids ready to intercept the wolves that were coming from behind. But to their surprise, they ran past her and gathered around the three remaining wolves. With another more menacing howl the timber wolves started to glow and float into air.
Soon they began to separate and reform. Part of dead trees floated from the nearby forest, adding to the already large pile of wood,along with the remains of their fallen comrades.

"We need to get going before that thing finishes!" Rainbow Dash yelled pushing Derpy and her kids away as they started to run. As she ran she turned her attention back to the creature. "Hey come on! You should run too!!" She started as it stood there arms crossed 'Is he...? No he can't be dumb enough to wait till its done?' But he was, she watched as he carefully observed and the Timberwolves body began to take from.Before Rainbow Dash could utter another word, the ground shook as a now giant timber wolf stood In front of them. With a deep breath in letting out a loud bellow that made the very air shake. The giant timber wolf now towered over them, teeth as large as fence post, eye that glowed with a menacing emerald green. It dug its claws into the ground and began to make a mad dash towards him.

"I never got the chance to properly introduce myself." Rainbow Dash's head turned back to him still standing there as if he didn't have a care in the world. Turning his head ever so slightly so that he was looking at her."The name is Johann, and a saiyan never runs from a fight." Stretching his arm out to the now charging behemoth a light glow emits from his palms. “We run towards it!” The light grows bigger and bigger become a light shade of blue.

The charging wolf raises it claws up ready to strike. Rainbow Dash could only stand there and watch as the timber wolf’s claws went straight for Johann body. "Look out!"

The beast arm came swooping down ready to killing its prey, but before landing its killer strike, Johann turned his body sideways causing it to miss by an inch. Johann outstretched arm was now in the wolf's face, the glowing orb still at the end of his palm.

"Get lost you overgrown piece of firewood." The orb of light grew double in size, the wolf's eyes widened, as it was unable to move. "BIG BANG ATTACK!!!!" And in a flash of light, an extremely large burst of light came forth sending shock waves of air out nowhere, as it collides with the giant Timberwolf body it burst into flames and was sent flying.

The light was so brighter that Dash shielded her eyes with her left wing.
As the light faded, Rainbow turned and saw the all that was left was a few pieces of burning wood scattered along the ground,along with a small crater where the once enormous beast stood. "No way!" Her mouth hung open as she stared in awe.

Johann turned to the three ponies and started to walk towards the prismatic pegasus. Slowly, he lowered himself until he was eye level with her, "So, miss Dash, did I make a good impression?" Smiling, he gave her a wink as he used one if his finger to close Dash’s mouth shut.

"U-uh..I guess so?" She stammered, her muzzle red with a blush. 'What the in Equestria was all that?!'
