Start...

         Ponies say I'm crazy even my wife said so. " Oh! Ash! Your crazy!" Ponies would say those words but those trembling words block my ears. They say I'm a crazy Pegasus. Cutie Mark your wondering. No pony needs to know my Cutie Mark, my parents was ashamed and my wife, gone. I was miserable...

My eyes blinked open as light sheared into my eyes, my curtains were closed and my bed was rough. I quickly got my hoofs off the bed and stomped. My house walls were covered by pioneer ponies staring at you all the time. The green walls glowed with scrapes and dents. The red rug floor stayed brown as I marched down to the basement. The yellow birds chirped as bright sunlight flooded the room. I entered the cold dark basement. Grey machines lay side by side. After a few sit backs I began to work. A white jacket covered my black coat and gigantic clear goggles covered my green eyes. Hours past of observing the machines and staring at my Cutie Mark, my stomach grew hungry. My body, covered in a black cloak moved upstairs and through the doors. I was outside, the green grass glimmered and the ponies cheered and smiled as they trotted along. The bright sunny sky hugged me like a mother hugging their child. My eyes glued on to two young fillies jumping around, one had magenta short hair with an orange coat and wings the other one was a unicorn with a white coat and pink and purple hair. The two jumped with joy. On their flanks were Cutie Marks, each one cheered and smiled and laughed. On the unicorn was a pink heart with a music note on the Pegasus there was a yellow feather.

  " We got our Cutie Marks! We have special talents!!!" squeaked the tiny unicorn as they both jumped up and down. My eyes rolled around. I started heading to the market. Avoiding every ponies eye contact, I hustled quickly to the market. Applejack stood behind a trolley. Large red apples lay on the trolley as she smiled at wondering ponies. My mouth watered with hunger. I stopped in front of her.

" Howdy there! Haven't seen you around! Buy some apples, they are delicious!" she yelled pointing her hoof at all the apples. I stuttered and widen my teeth,

" Oh well thank you, I just want some of your apples," I stared at the apples avoiding her eye contact.

" Do you think you would be choked by apples? And die?" I blurted out, my eyes wondered to her Cutie Mark.

" Umm no! I have been around apples my whole life and none has killed me. Want apples or not?" she said with a firm face. I felt my cloak being lifted, I turned around and a little yellow coated, red maned earth filly stare at my ' Cutie Mark'. A horrendous face was plastered on her.

Staring wildly at my ' Cutie Mark', she gasped, " Big sis? Why is this colts Cutie Mark a knife, is he a murderer, or a killer. Will he murder ponies?" she cried at Applejack.

" What's your name colt!" she stared at me firmly.

" Ash Burst, and I am not a killer!" I yelled putting my wings up. " Don't make me put you in jail!Your dangerous!"" I don't know how I got this!"

" Get the buck out of town!" Ponies stared at me with shock. I could hear whispers of " Murder?" and " That freak?"  It still echoes in my ear.

" Contact Princess Celestia!" Applejack yelled pointing to a purple unicorn with bangs in the crowd. My wings spread out, I felt myself staring at the clouds and lifting up. I vanished into the clouds above me. Tears poured down my cheek, why a knife? I went higher into the air until Pony ville vanished by clouds below. A blue Pegasus with a rainbow mane flew next to me, she was flying so fast, rainbows trailed behind her, it glimmered and shined  the most wonderful thing ever) . I stared at her with amazement. The Pegasus flew in front of me. I flew behind her. Suddenly, we were under black clouds. I could hear thunder. Out of the cloud came a large yellow lightning bolt. It struck the rainbow mane Pegasus. The Pegasus screamed and tumbled to the ground. I chased after the falling Pegasus towards the ground, but all there was was a bloody red Pegasi on the ground with spots of blue on her coat. Curious, I landed beside her. I stared at her ' Cutie Mark'. It was a rainbow lightning bolt. I stared up at the sky and back at the bloody Pegasus. She lay motionless. With all my might, I pulled her up and plopped her on my back. Quickly, I  flew home, planning on putting the dead pony on a metal bed.
