When push comes to shove

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

I stagger back as a fist hit me square in the face. My glasses fly off my face and land on the ground. The lens of the glasses pop out and scatter. Things are blurry but I step back as I see a fist being thrown. I am at a disadvantage here I can barely make out a figure standing in front of me. But I remember what he taught me. Keep your hands up your feet ready to move and fight with all your might. I could hear ponies around me yelling. Telling me and who ever I am fighting with to stop.

"Gilda stop it was an accident!" I heard a familiar voice come from behind the blur. It then throws a right hook which I block as best I could. But I must have been off alittle bit as pain shot through my left forearm. Taking a few steps back I shut out all the yelling around me. I needed to focus, after all that's what he thought me to do. I may not be able to see things from afar but I can see a little up close.

I duck another right hook and not wasting an opportunity I gut punch my opponent. The wind had to be knocked out of them as I see the blown, white, and black blur step back holding where I punched. Still seeing an opportunity I delivere a left hook hitting them right in the jaw. But my fucking hand stung from that it was like hitting plastic or bone. The blur seem to notice my pain as it grip my shirt collar.

"You'll pay for that!" It screamed the voice familiar but no time to dwell on it. Thinking fast I grabbed the lion paws like hands by the wrist. Pulling my head back I knew this will either hurt or it will back up in time. Thrusting my head forward I felt it impact another skull. The blown lion like paws letting go. My head fucking hurt from that but I am pretty sure I hurt it more than me. Opening my eyes I look around only to see that the blur was on the floor. To make sure it doesn't fuck with me again I kick it straight where I think its stomach is. I heard that familiar voice cough as I hit the blur.

"Yeah! You don't fuck with a COOLY!" I say stepping back and wondering on if my glasses can be fixed. "Hey can anyone help me get my glasses, I can barely make out anything around me." I asked seeing a purple blur use magic with a purple glow. "Oh thank you Twilight, if that is you." I thanked the purple blur.

As I heard magic go off I could see my glasses being floated toward me. Or what I could make out was my glasses being magically floated toward me. But the it seems who I was fighting didn't get the warning and held my arms up from behind. And using their knee, kneed me in the back each strike fucking hurt.

"FUCK YOU!!" I yelled as I threw my head back hitting something that felt like a beek. But the feather cover arms let go. Turning around I began to punch away seeing that Griffin girl was the one I was fighting. My rage reaching its peak I deliver another punch. Knocking her down to the ground I stand on top of her.

I punch her again with a right hook then again with a left. This repeated for a minute until a rope was tossed on my torso and arms.

"That's enough! Chaz!" Applejacks voice rang out as I was pulled away with force. Hell if she pulled any harder she might have broken my arms. I then felt my glasses land on my lap. Most likely thrown at me by the girls. Hell by how most pony doctors looked at me like an animal. So with them seeing this side of me is not helping that.

"What The Fuck CHAZ!?" I heard Rainbow Dashes voice yell to me as I put on my glasses. They where most likely fixed by twilight. Now being able seeing I see Rainbow Dash giving me a death stare.

"I defended myself by a Griffin who seemed to think punching someone is a good hello." I say sarcastically as I look at Rainbow Dash blankly.

"So you break her beek!?" Rainbow Dash yelled rushing to the Griffins side helping her up.

"She threw the first punch and found out what happens when you punch a Cooly." I say as I see her walk away with the Griffin. I believe her name was Gilda never got to ask. "Ain't my fault she wanted to start shit." Rainbow Dash and Gilda just kept walking not looking back. I look at the other girls seeing Fluttershy and Pinkie back away in fear. That was when I felt a hand smack me across the face. I was expecting it to be Twilight or applejack but it was Rarity. I was taking aback by this act by before I said anything she spoke.

"That was no way to treat a mare." The statement confused me more as she said that. After all I thought she dipped after she saw me act like that.

"Is that all you had to say?" I asked confused even more as the rope around me went slack. Applejack rolled up the rope and then looked at me.

"Listen here Chaz, I ain't sayin your in the right, but you did act in self defense." Applejack said as I look at her face trying to read it. But there is nothing she seemed scared yet understanding. "But I if you try anything like that to my friends or family I send you to tartarus myself you hear?" I nod simply understanding where she was coming from. After all I know about wanting to protecting the one's I love.

"I'm going for walk I would like to be left alone." I say turning around and walking away. As I walk the pain fading away as I take each step. My steps the only think on my mind. The ponies who spot me rush to their homes. I could hear them barricade their doors. Understandable after all they most likely seen me act like an animal. Or they just fear me like I am a monster. Maybe they have a point I'm not a pony I don't belong here. I'm a broken man wanting nothing but to be home and finish my job.

"I have a Job to do?" I say as I lift my head realizing I look at the forest I came out of. That seems to be my only chance to get home. But its a risk of dying, painful and slow. "Its, worth the risk, After all I have a job to do." As I say that I take out my snake eye blue knife and holding it tight. "I have a job to do." Walking forward I head into the forest determined to find a way home.

Walking through the forest I look back and forth to at the trees. The forest feels unnatural yet natural at the same time. I have always felt drawn to this forest. Suddenly a timberwolf ran toward me but acting fast I strike it making it whimper. Walking toward it I lift my steel toe covered foot up and slamming it down hard. I stomped on this wolf's head over and over again the wood snapping and making a sound. I look around seeing more eyes on me.

"You want some!?" I say as I look at them not afraid. They seem to be taken aback by this. To my surprise they backed off from me as they run away. My mind raced as I wondered why they backed up. Maybe the work on fear or maybe there's a bigger threat. I look up and saw the largest space bear. Thinking fast I duck and hide waiting for it to pass by. I have no idea how I didn't notice it before. Its steps shake the very ground and it grows more distant. I better moving before I become Timberwolf food. Walking further in I look around my snake eye blade still out and ready. That was when I came across a bridge. Looking forward I then saw a Castle towering over the trees. Taking the chance I then nodded my head as I walked to the bridge. It shaked and wobbled with each step I took. Not wanting to loose my knife from losing my balance I put it back in its sheave. After doing this I take each step carefully and with patience. That was when I heard a familiar growling behind me.

"Ah, Hell." I say turning around and looking at the large timberwolf. It was looking at me like it found a large meal for him to each. But with the bridge being in the state its in I doubt it would do anything to put itself at risk. But it would totally fuck with me and that rang true.

The left side of the bridge went slack as it slashed at the ropes. I say fuck it to the slow and steady and just go for it. After all I am dead either way if I take it slow. The right side of the bridge was getting more slack and I couldn't help but go faster. The bridge suddenly fell and I leaped for the other side. I gripped on the wood for dear life. Pulling my self up I looked back at the large timberwolf.

"Yeah! FUCK YOU!" I get up and run towards the castle as I am not talking any chances with that timberwolf. But I am ready for anything after all I need to get back home. And as he taught me before you push back when they shove.
