The night after the events at the end of the last chapter.

The night is cold and the sky is dark;
Still no relief from the weight on my heart.
The maniacal monsters and their insatiable lust,
Now my compassion is turned to dust.

No ability to forgive,
Now that my heart is gone.
I lay here alone;
Totally forlorn...

Racked brain is all that's left;
The fear that I'll never rest,
Will put my judgement to the test.
Fight hard to do my best.


Several days after the 'incident'.

It took forever to get out of that dreadful place, it went on and on... I thought that I would never get out. But I showed them! Apparently they didn't think that we were smart enough, so there is only a shallow fence guarding the perimeter of the camp. That or they thought we wouldn't want to... NO! I'm not going to think like that again, it was all a lie! A terrible, terrible lie.

I can't look back now.

At this point I find myself on a dusty path, the small granules of the road sticking to my bruised skin. Not that I have anyone to keep my image for now. In fact it's a wonder that I even got this far in the first place, I can only remember not moving; never actually -- no, that's a silly line of thought, of course I moved on my own. How else would I?!

Oh well, better get a move on; don't want the day to waste away...


A couple of hours later, closer to Ponyville (home of the devil's).

Here I am, dare I enter? How will I be welcomed, if at all? No matter, I've made my mind up, I'm going to Canterlot, and the train from here is the easiest way to do it. Or at least that's what they said, if what they said is even true then a train leaves every 2 hours from here. I think the real task will be actually be getting on the train, from what I can tell, it wont be easy if they were designed for the Murderous Devils.

Looks like there's a hill down to the town, if I use it roll down there I should be able to get there in double-time!


A short while later, after the roll down the hill obviously.

Okay, looks like the station in somewhere north-east of this road, due to the tracks coming down from Canterlot. Should I go trough the outskirts, or brave the centre of town? Might as well brave it suppose, I've come this far; it wouldn't hurt to know more about my enemy.

I'll just travel though the grass by the sides of the road so that I'm not seen, that should do well enough for now... I need a disguise I think.


In the town square.

Wow, there are so many. First I never see any of them for -- like, ever -- now I see at least twenty in one place! What in the brown leaves of autumn could they all want?! Maybe this is the time to make myself a disguise; by the sound of it the last train left about thirty minutes ago.

Hmmm... where to go... Ah! There seems to be a fabric stand over the other side of the square. But how to get there? Let me think...


Over at the other side of the square.

Well that was quick, and ingenious if I do say so myself! Now all I need to do is -- wait, it can't be -- they're here, oh no... and they have some of my friends with them in those wicker prisons, I have to help them!
