Silver flash looked back at her while he ran from her and all he saw was a look of confusion plastered on her face. He turned down the nearest alley and kept going through them till he eneded up in the middle of a maze for the town.

He heard the pony cry out "Why are you running from me? What did I do?" as he continued his pace through the disorienting structures. He was just about to sit down on his plot when, finally, Silver saw a street being used by other ponies.

He walked out of the alley with his cloak now tight around him so as to not be recognized by the pony that flew over him. He continued walking around knowing he was being followed by the orginization and made sure to not talk to anypony.

Silver Flash had just gotten over his encounter with the pink pony trying hug him to find he was being assualted by a pony with a glowing white coat and 3 diamonds as a cutie mark.

"How can you be wearing that dreadful thing, especially when its in this bad of shape?" as she yanked the cloak off of him and held it up to further inspect. Silver noticed the cloak was wrapped in a light blue aura letting him know she was a unicorn.
"Madam, if i might have my cloak and be on my way please?" he responded urgently towards the lady. "I really must be on my way now!" to which she replied "Oh what's the hurry dear? If you want i can repair this for you. It won't take but a moment. Come along". With that she walked forward still holding the cloak and Silver was forced to walk along the street behind her with his swords exposed.

Silver saw the looks of shock and disgust when they saw he had swords. There was even one of confusion when the person saw he had three of them. He continued walking quickly behind the white pony not looking above the ground as to be called a pervert. They had finally made it to the shop when she whipped around and saw him looking towards the ground.

"Well aren't you the perfect gentlepony. Thank you for repsecting my privacy. Now lets go inside shall we darling? Also, I can't beleive i forgot to mention this but my name is Rarity". He walked inside in fornt of her and she finally noticed his cutie mark and the three swords he was carrying.

She recoiled slightly and asked "However did you get that cutie mark?" She asked while working on the cloak. Silver just stood there and sighed from frustation. "Why does everyone alsways ask me that. They just look at my cutie mark or my swords and brand me a violent pony. It just doesnt seem fair. But since you asked, I was out in the Everfree Forest looking for my dog. I was walking and shouting out his name. So while im doing this i didnt even notice the group of timberwolves behind me until i heard the growling. When i turned aroind and saw them i suddenly thought of how to defend myself. So i looked on the ground and got three sturdy sticks. One each forr my hooves and one for my mouth. For some reason that felt right to me and i kept fighting them off. I was nearly dead from exhaustion and thats when he came."

"Who came darling" Rarity asked? "The man who saved my life in one swing of his sword. His name was Grey Dawn. He saved me that day. I didnt know it until later though that i thanked him and collapsed. I gained my cutie mark that day" said Silver Flash with a faraway gaze. He then remembered why he was trying to get away from this place as quickly as possible. He grabbed his cloak, threw a few bits on the counter and ran away with a quick thanks. Rarity looked upon his exit with a look of befuddlement.

Silver put his cloak back and proceeded to slowly look around and see if there was anyone from the Orginization who saw that. He saw none and so went on his way. He had only meant to stay here a night nad have no trouble. At least in canterlot he wasnt really noticed by the nobles. To them he was just a speck of dirnt on the ground, beneath their notice or not even worth their time.

He had just walked away when he heard a small cry for help from the center of town. He rushed off past everyone while they looked on in awe of his speed. He had made it just seconds after the scream was heard and so saw what the problem was. She had spilled red paint on herself and looked as if covered in blood. She couldnt see due to the paint in her eyes and so cried out.

He calmed down and approached her saying " Calm down miss, all thats wrong is just some spilled paint. Here let me help you wash it out." He walked towards her house and turned on the spigot outside using his mouth. He then filled the bucket next to it and used it to rinse off the unicorn that had spilled the paint on herself.

As Silver was doing this she said "Thank you whoever you are. Im Twilight Sparkle, the librarian of this town. So, whats your name?" She just finished getting the paint off and away from her eyes and looked at Silver with an expectant look.

He softly said "My name is Silver". He looked around and saw a pony with a newspaper sitting down on a bench. he froze and studied the outline of the pony and relaxed when he realized that it was just a regular mint green pony with a silver mane. He said quickly towards Twilight though "I need to be going hope you have a nice day". He then shuffled off quickly towards the Everfree once again.
