A Boy's Tears 3: New Beginnings

The baby dragon was absolutely scared witless just seeing the Mane-iac come to life. The worst part of this situation was: she was after him. Figures since that Spike unintentionally made him and his own friends get inside tjat very comic book to take her down, just to get back to the real world. He felt like it was all his fault that the Mane-iac just came to Ponyville like this. The only question in this was: How did she even get here?

"Just hand over the baby dragon right now, and I will go easy on you all." Mane-iac said. "Or you can all die and I will take him by force anyway."

"Try and do it, you crazy mare!" Rainbow Dash. "You want him, you'll have to get through us!"

Mane-iac let out another evil chuckle before saying: "Very well! Have it your way!" then she got a look at Collin and looked very confused. "Hello, what the hay is this?" she said. Mane-iac ran over to him while on four of her tendrils like a spider to get a closer look at Collin. It got to the point where she was invading his own personal space. "You don't look like any gorilla i have ever seen."

"What?" Collin sounded offended. "I'm not a gorilla. I'm a human. We're separate species. though we are both apes."

"Yes, i can see that on your hands. Look very similar to an ape." Mane-iac continued observing him in an intrusive way that was violating the boy's personal space. "Where did you even come from, child?"

"It's complicated." Collin admitted as he felt the ankles of his legs being lifted, hanging upside down. "It's a... very long story anyway. You wouldn't believe me if i told you anyway."

"By the looks of a creature like yourself, i believe otherwise." Mane-iac had an evil smile

Fluttershy's maternal instincts were immediately kicking in after seeing his adopted human in this kind of situation. She got extremely angry as her teeth were seething and got mad enough to fly up to Mane-iac and give her a very painful uppercut to her chin, making the crazy mare fall into a pile of barrels.

"Get away from my boy!" said Fluttershy with the angry look still on her face. It immediately turned into concern and worry when she turned to Collin. "Are you ok, sweetie? Did she hurt you?"

"No." Collin replied. "Thanks, mom."

The yellow pegasus hugged her human cohort tightly, so glad that he was unharmed like this. Unfortunately, this sweet moment was cut short when the Mane-iac was slowly getting back up from the barrels she crashed into, and she was quite mad after that blow to the face. "That hurt." she said. "That really hurt! Now you will pay!" she rushed forward and was more than ready to tear her enemies apart, limb from limb.

"Alright girls, you know what do you." Twilight ordered.

"Yeah!" her friends said.

Spike was about to join in on the fight too, but was stopped by Twilight with her magic from her horn. "Spike, wait, you need to get out of here. It's not safe for you now."

"But i want to help, Twi." Spike persisted.

"It's you she wants, Spike. I don't want anything bad to happen to you. Now go."

"But Twilight-"

"Go!" Twilight ordered before she went to join her friends in fighting the Mane-iac.

"Collin, get far away from here. It's not safe for you." said Fluttershy. "You can get hurt."

"OK. Be careful, Fluttershy."

"I will try."

The human boy ran off and caught sight of Spike running away from the fight as well. "Spike?" said Collin.

"Oh, you're running too?" said the baby dragon

"Yeah, the Mane-iac looks dangerous."

"But i've dealt with her before. I should be able to face her again."

"But she looks dangerous."

"True, but i have dealt with many dangerous things before. Remember how you got kidnapped before and how we all saved you?"

"right. But they told us to just run away. She might kill you."

They both stopped to catch their breaths as soon as they were far enough from the chaos happening in the middle of town. Speaking of which, the Mane Six were fighting and fending off Mane-iac with all their might. She was definitely fighting them in a fierce matter. But the Mane-iac almost wished she had the hairspray ray of doom on her to make things go smoother (for her). But she knows she can make good use of her hair and tail since she can use them like tentacles under her whim.

She managed to whack Pinkie Pie into a window like a fly and a flyswatter. "You call that an attack?" Mane-iac taunted the heroix ponies. "I've seen better attacks from the lousiest of police officers!"

"Pinkie!" said Rarity. "You beastly beast! You are really going to pay for that!" she used her magic from her horn to try and blast a wave of energy at the unhinged mare, only for the crazy pony to dodge and whack her into a hairspray stand nearby, and the white unicorn got up, looking angrier than before, panting like an angry bear that woke up from hibernation.

“Ha! You look good in green, you weakling!” Mane-iac taunted Rarity.

“What?” Rarity gasped as she pulled out a nearby mirror to get a better look at herself, and she gasped to see what this crazy mare had done. “My mane! Not again!” Then she fell to tue ground, crying her eyes out in a dramatic way. A way that she would normally be like when she is in a very bad situation.

Rainbow Dash just facepalmed herself at how being overly-dramatic, but that didn’t stop her from continuing to fight her old foe. She needed friends to protect and defend from uncertain danger. With the Mane-iac, anything unpredictable was certainly possible.

“You’ll pay for what you did to Rarity!” Said Applejack. “You mess with the bull, you get the horns!”
