The arrival

I was just a normal twenty year old guy liveing a boring normal life. Well life was like a hell for me where I came from. I lived on a dead end street never knowing what could happen to me. I was medium built, short black hair, caucasion, brown eyes, and had no scars what so ever. My house was a small one story building that wasn't even clean at all. I had no friends or social life and barely watched any T.V. But one day my whole life would change forever.

It was like a normal day for me really. I got up from my bed and got dressed in my work clothes them being some old worn out clothing. Long worn out jeans, worn out sweat shirt and shoes. They would have some old worn out protective helmeat for me. I didn't bother to eat that day since it was one of those days for me. I got into my car and made my way to my work place. I was mainly depressed because of the recent death of my best friend Jerry who was killed by some accident at the work place we worked at.

I pulled into the driveway of the huge factory. I got out and made my way to the factory. As I entered I took the clipboard that was on my desk. I grabbed my protective helmet and went to work even though I forgot my goggles which were important for my line of work.

I was at my work station turning the valves and checking the knobs on the machine. Just then steam shot out of one of the valves and hit me in the left side of my face. Then an electrical wire shot out and zapped my in my chest then an explosion happened. Then nothing....just black.

I woke up in some sort of bed. That surprised me sence I would think I would be dead. I tried to my around only to be met by amazeing pain. With alot of effort I managed to sit up a bit to check my surroundings. Everything had way more color than it would usualy have. I could see that I was in some sort of hospital so I just though that I somehow managed to survive the explosion and was recovering so I could go back to work. I couldn't see out my left eye so I raised my left had to try and feel what was there. Only for me to fall down onto the bed makeing me wince in pain.

"Gah.....goddamn that hurt.....where the hell am I....?" I asked aloud to no one preticular. I then heard movement at the foot of the bed I was on. Excepet they didn't sound like shoes on the floor...more like a hooves.

"Hey I think it's awake." I heard a voice say. It was like a feemale with a tomboyish catch to it.

"Yeah I think so too rainbow.....you think it was a good idea for use two to be the only ones here?" The other ones asked. She also had a female voice.

"Nah i'm sure we're fine twilight. I mean did you see the condition that thing was in? I mean if it wasn't for you and that spell you missed up on it would be dead by now. Plus it won't hurt us it's to badly hurt to." The one called rainbow say. 'Where the hell was I? Was I in heaven....or a strange part of hell?' I asked myself. I moved a little to try and get back up. Once I was able to see around again I saw in shock two horse things. They were at the foot of my bed. One cyan colored with a rainbow colored mane and tail. The other with a dark purple mane and light purple streaks going through them.

"What the hell?!" I asked in surprise wide eyed. I tried to get out of the bed so I can get the fuck out of there. But only for me to be in extreme pain enough not to move. The two horse things came over beside me. I layed there eyes wide, sweat dripping from my forehead out of fear, and my hear pounding a mile a minute. The heart monitor helped with that.

"Hey calm down you......don't want to get a heat attack do you?" The rainbow one said. I looked at her still in total fear. But with alot of will power I managed to calm down a bit. At least enough to talk.

"Ok...ok....now mind telling me where in the hell am I?" I asked finaly calming down.

"Well you are in the world of equestria in the town of Ponyville. We are what you call ponies. Like unicorns,pegisus, and earth ponies. Where you from?" The one called twilgiht asked. I was still trying to realize that I was talking to ponies that could talk. But I still told them what I knew.

"Well...... i'm a human and I lived on a world called earth in the town of Greencastle. I was working on some machines when it blew up in my face....and well now i'm here." I said. They looked at eatchother and I guess rainbow knew what twilight was gonna do.

"Twilight no you are not asking him questions." Twilight just frowned and put away whatever she had out I couldn't see. "Eggehead. Anyways i'm rainbow dash fastest flyer in equestria. This is Twilight sparkle the student of the great princess celestia....what in the hay is your name?" Rainbow asked me after she was done explaining what she knew to me.

"Names John. Nice to meet you." I said. I would shake her.....err hoof but seeing I was in pain and could barely move that wasn't an option at all. Twilight seeing she couldn't do anything she wanted she bid us farewell. Dash seemed to decided to do the same. Even though I had alot of questions I just decided to let them go instead of trying to make them stay. I rested my head on the pillow as night took over. I slowly closed my eyes as the pain I once was in seemed distaint. I fell asleep instantly.

(AN:Ok well here's the first chapter of this fic. Not my best work seeing I had to rush sorry. Feedback and help is welcomed ALOT. CYA NEXT TIME!!!!!)

Realization

I woke up the next day still in some pain but not nearly as much as I was yesterday. My chest and the left side of my face was still sore. I tried to open my eyes but only opened my right. I tried to open my left eye but it felt like there was a preasure keeping it closed. I moved my right hand to my eye and felt a bandage like materal on it.

"I guess it was that bad." I said to myself as I strugled to sit up again. It was easier and I wasn't in as much pain as before. I was sitting up semi straight looking around the room better than I did before. I saw that there were several other beds in the room just like mine each with a tray holder on either side. Everything had way more clolor than before sence it was sunny out.

"Hey you're awake." I heard a voice say. I looked at the foot of the bed and saw that it was another one of those pony things. She had a white coat and a strawberry blonde mane and tail, wearing a nurses cap with a red cross on it. She walked into the room picking up a clipboard that was at the foot of the bed with her mouth. She walked to my right side as she placed the clipboard on the table beside me.

"Nurse redheart. Nice to meet you." She said in a calm happy voice. I just grinned despite the situation.

"Names John. Nice to meet you too. Now so you know I have a few questions." I said. She raised up one of her hooves.

"Yes but as do I. First off you are extremly lucky that you lived through what you did. I mean I never thought I would see so many wounds on a pony let alone..........a human was it?" She asked the last part a little confussed.

"Yes a human....and I kinda figured that because I did live through an explosion." I said this all with no emotion in my words or facial expression. SHe looked at me shocked.

"An explosion?! But....how did you...... well you did look dead when she brought you in." I raised an eybrow at her.

"She? Who brought me in here?" I asked.

"Oh.....well she came and visited you yesterday. I belive you know her by the name of 'Rainbow dash." She then looked at the clipboard when she was finished. I had to process everything through my head. "Ok one minute i'm just working on a machine for work the next i'm here.....wierd world." I thought to myself. She then looked back at me.

"I have another question for you." She said. I nodded telling her she could ask me.

"Go right ahead." I said.

"Do you think you are able to see visitors?" She asked.

"Yeah I think I am...why do you ask?"

"Well Rainbow dash the one who saved you wants to visit you. She seems to want to make sure that you're ok." She said the last part almost as if it was strange for her to do that. I just shrugged.

"Yeah sure I don't mind if she comes and visits me. Besides she's the one that saved my life isn't she?"

"Yep if it wasn't for her then you wouldn't even be alive right now. She's off with the weather team right now but she should be here to visit you real soon." Redheart said with a smile. I smiled weakly back as she took the clipboard and put it back where she found it. She then walked out leaveing me to my thoughts and alone in the room. I then thought of what things would happen now.

"Ok.... i'm a alien to these ponies,look like I would kill and eat them....even though that isn't true, and I should be dead but one of the ponies saved me......sounds like a good start to a new life I guess." I said all this aloud. I laied back down on the bed looking at the ceiling.

(AN:Ok well so sorry for the short chapter it's just that i've been sick for the past two days so it's rough typeing for you guys but fear not I will continue one when I don't feel dead. Anyways CYA NEXT TIME!!!!!)

First visit

I just kept looking up at the ceiling wondering what my next move was gonna be. I mean being in a new world full of ponies there isn't much a human can do really. Like I would have to adapt to a new lifestyle involving food, body, and how to entertain myself. This was gonna be one hell of a new experince for someone like me. I wasn't used to any of this but I am still alive so I guess that's a plus right?

I started to doze off to sleep when all of a sudden I heard a familier voice talk.

"Hey don't you go sleeping on me now boy." I knew who that was just from the tomboyish voice she had. I got into a sitting position and saw that Rainbow dash was standing in the doorway of the hospital room. I just grinned as she walked in and sat down on a chair to my right.

"Hey Rainbow dash." I said still smileing.

"Hey....John was it?" She asked. I nodded yes. "Well I just wanted to come by and see how you were doing...so you doing good?" She asked.

"Well.....i'm doing better than before so yeah I think i'm doing ok. Oh and thanks for saveing my life. If it wasn't for you then I don't know where I would be right now." I said to her my smile now gone. She just blushed a little from my complimant....I didn't consider it a compliment but I guess she did.

"Aw it was nothing really John. In fact it was really Twilight who saved you. Turns out she used a magical spell and sence that you were in trouble. She ended up teleporting you here and.....you.....you just looked......well like you looked like some deformed creature." She said this with a sorta depressed look.

"Hey......why you look all sad now? Did I say something?" I asked her with a worried tone in my voice.

"Huh...oh no you didn't....it's just well when I saw you like that I swear you were dead. Then we saw that you were breathing really heavy like. Next thing I knew I just propped you on my back and ran off as fast as I could to the hospital for treatment. When I got you here they just made me wait in the waiting room." She explained.

"Well still even though Twilight brought me here with some magic you are the one that brought me to get treated without a moment of hesitation. So I think the thanking does belong to you most of all Rainbow dash." I said with a smile. She just looked up and smiled back.

"Yeah well I am the fastest one in equestria." She said with pride. I had a feeling I just saw her go back to normal. I chuckled at this seeing how she was acting.

"Well I have an idea I could do with you after I get out as a sort of thanks."

"Oh really waht you have in mind?"

"Well when I can acctualy run I could race you. Seeing that you seem to like to race and all." She just looked at me for a second before busting out laughing and falling onto the ground. I just had a straight face at this.

"Bwahahahahaha!!" When she was finaly done she got up from the ground wipeing her eyes. "Hehehe well if you wanna lose that is John. Sure I guess it would work. I mean beating you would be a thanks to me." She said with a grin. I just smiled back.

"Ok then that's what we will do once I get out and can run again. Now.......about one more thing."

"What is it?" She asked.

"I need to know when I can get this bandage off of my eye so I can see again." She then just had a surprised look along with a depressed look. But before she could say anything to me the Nurse came in and said that it was time for her to go that visiting hours were over. Dash just got up and left without saying a word. I just let out a sigh as I laied down on the bed looking back at the ceiling again. Then I slowly fell asleep with my good eye closing.

(AN:Hey guys this is kinda rushed kinda not. I'm feeling better so my fics are getting better as well. So wait for more. "Bronyboy777" Helped out alot. CYA NEXT TIME!!!!)

The sad truth

I woke up the next day with the sun high in the sky. My eyes were blurry from sleep....well one of them anyways. I blunk my eyes a few times to get rid of the sleep. I sat up in the bed the covers still up to my waist. I was still a little tired, but with the sun up in my eye it forced me awake. I didn't really have the nightmare of my friend dying....well noy yet. That's when I saw that Rainbow dash and Nurse redheart came into the room both haveing a depressed look in their eyes. But they had a fake smile on.

"Well we have some good news John." Redheart said.

"What's that?" I asked.

"We are takeing that bandage off of your face today so that it can heal a little better in the air." Rainbow dash said. I couldn't help but smile at this.

"Well that's great news then. I can't wait to finaly get this thing off of my face." I said with a smile. They just smiled back at me as redheart got onto the chair to my left so that she can take off my bandage while Rainbow dash was on my right and to my complete surprise she took my right hand in both of her hooves. I just held them back wondering why she was doing this. It didn't seem like her at all. That's when Redheart began to take off my bandage.

It only took her a few seconds for the bandages to get off of my eye. But when she did that I tried to open my left eye lids...only to be met by pain. I had to stop before the pain became to much to bear. My heart rate then began to race as I tried to figure out why in the hell wasn't my eye opening!

"What..why isn't my eye opening?! I mean it should right.....I can't be blind in that eye I just cant!!" I yelled franticly only for Rainbow dash to give a soothing "shhhhhhh." I stopped my frantic talking but my heart rate kept speeding up.

"A mirror....I need a mirror please." I sad in a sorta begging voice. Rainbow and Redheart exchanged looks at eatchother before Redheart nodded. She grabbed a mirror from the table to my left and gave it to me. I looked in it seeing full well waht the damaged was to my face.

There was a long deep red scar going down my left eye that was closed, but along with that was that there was a alot of little plops of black like dots on my face probley would turn into scars. That was basicly it and what scared me the most was how my left eye lids looked like. My eyes seemed to have been singed closed from the steam back when the explosion happened. I took my right hand up to the eye and touched it. I was mostly trying to feel for the eye itself only to be met by the pain and feeling of it like it was a little squishy. My heart sank.

I dropped the mirror onto the bed in complete shock to what I just saw and felt. I looked at the two mares and was met by the same shocked expressions that I had except........ I could see more depression in thier eyes.....and at least they could see through both eyes. I guess depression got the best of me because I bagn to cry and tears went out my good eye. I guess my tear duct in my left eye was to damaged because I didn't feel anything in that eye. It's hard to take everything in like this at once. As I cried I sunndely felt Rainbow slowly wrap her forelegs around me and pull me into an embrace. I was at first confussed why she would do this for a completly different species, but I hugged her back.

I don't know how long I cried into her coat, but when my sobbing slowly stopped I pulled away from her wipeing away the tears from my only eye. Nurse redheart had long left while I was crying. But Rainbow staied. I looked into her rose eyes and just like that she gave me a tight hug and whispered into my ear.

"Everything will be ok John......don't worry." I just huged back this time not shedding a tear. Either from running out or I just felt relife from this.

"Hey Rainbow I just wanted to say thanks for what you did for me." I said as I pulled away from the hug placeing my arms to my sides as Rainbow did the same. She just smiled at me as she nodded.

"You're welcome John....I acctualy didn't think when the bandage came off....it would be that bad." She said. I just let out a sigh.

"Neither did I Rainbow dash. But you really can't be prepared for the future can you?"

"No you can't....listene I will try and convince Twilight to have Princess Celestia get you a house here in ponyville so that you wont have to live in the street." She said. I looked at her nodded with a smile.

"That would be nice....and Rainbow...could you get me an eye patch.....I don't think walking around with a deformed eye would make the locals like me." I said with a desperate chuckle. Rainbow nodded as she patted me on my shoulder.

"Sure John i'll do that for you. Anything else I can do for you?" She asked. This didn't seem like her but I just shruged it off.

"No Rainbow you did enough for me." I said with a smile. She just smiled back as we continued to talk. She went from how she got her cutie mark after explaining what that was to me, all the way to when she managed to help the Crystal Ponies. Mna did she go everywhere. Then she asked me what I used to do.

"Well I had straight A's and the best friend anybody could have. He was always there for me when things seemed down and hell he even saved my life a few times." I said with a smile. But then the memory of how he died came to my mind. My smile faded away as I looked out the window at the end of the room to my right. Dash saw this and placed her forehoof on my shoulder.

"John.....are you ok?" She asked.

"Yeah yeah.....just a memory...... i'm sorry but I can't talk about my friend anymore.....mabe on a better time." I said. I looked back at Rainbow and she nooded. She then gave me one last hug before she got off the chair and walked out the room. I just let out a sigh as I then realized that I was wearing the same pants from when I arrived. I reached into my right pocket and took out my wallet. By some miricle it wasn't damaged. I opened it and saw the picture of Jerry and I smileing at the camra. He was medium built, black short hair, 6,5, and had a scar on his face on his right cheeck. That was where he was hit from when a pice of glass shattered and hit him.

I just grinned as I took the picture out and placed it into my left pocket. I then threw my wallet away into the trash can that was close to me. I didn't really care about my wallet that much anymore. I laied back down onto the bed and looked at the ceiling. I then fell assleep peacfully for once in a long time.

(AN:Hey everypony I have gotted this chapter out and I hope that it wont be that bad because I am not that sick anymore so YAY. Anyways a huge thanks to "Bronyboy777" For the help and such and I guess to "King John" For demanding MOAR!!!! CYA NEXT TIME)

Rumors

I woke up the next day to the sun being high in the sky going through the window. I sat up in the bed stretching my arms to wake myself up. I stood up when I was done stretching and I walked to where Rainbow dash was in her room sleeping soundly. I couldn't help but grin as I saw her sleep the way she was. I then made my way downstairs to the kitchen and took out some apples and placed them on a plate after grabbing some water. It was probely near noon when I woke up. I sat down on the small table that to my surprise was able to be my size almost. I began to eat happy for not eating on that hospital food that they gave me. Then to my surprise I heard the sound of hooves hitting the hardwood floor stairs. I turned and saw that Dash seemed to have just woken up.

"Mornin." She said scratching her eyes with one of her hooves. I smiled.

"Mornin. How did you sleep?" I asked. She smiled back as she grabbed one of the apples off of my plate and sat down beside me. She ate the apple prety quickly.

"I slept preety well. You know besides the fact that some of ponies think that i'm gay, but besides that yeah i'm good." She said. I just let out a sigh as I patted her on the back.

"Don't worry Dash we'll get to the bottom of this ok?" I asked. She just nodded.

"Yeah....yeah you're right. Thanks again for letting me stay the night here John....you're a great friend." She said leaning into me. I was surprised at first but I wrapped my arm around her and held her close. She let out a shaky sigh as she tried to cover her red face with one of her forhooves. I just chuckled as I kept her close letting out a little sigh of my own. That's when I decided something that I hopped would help.

"Listene Dash......you think you could show me where we can find the ones that bully you? Because i'm sure we can straighten these things out." I said. She looked up at me with a surprised look on her face.

"You would do that for me?" She asked. I nodded with a smile. She smiled back as she got up and I followed. We walked to the door and went outside. I clossed the door behind me. She then began to take the lead and as we went I saw that she was taking me futhur into the town of ponyville. Mainly an alley way. As we went I saw that there was at least two other ponies laughing together. All of them stallions.

One had a light brown fur and black mane. The other with a grey coat and black mane. They were laughing hard at something and I could figure out what it was. Dash continued to lead the way down the long alleyway until we were earshot from them. The two ponies looked at us and had an evil like smile.

"Well looks like we just found Rainbow crash! So is this the tough guy you said would be able to scare us away?!" One of them asked with a laugh in it. I just wanted to beat the shit out of them so badly, but I kept myself from doing so. Dash just nodded,

"Yeah this is the tough guy, Besides I bet he could beat you two up with ease is that right John?" She said with a smirk. That's when I had to think of what to do here. Either say yes and risk having the locals fear me for beating up two stalions or figure out a peaceful way to get this sorted out. I just let out a sigh.

"No i'm not Dash." I said. That's when the two ponies began to laugh hard at this. Dash looked at me with both dispair and anger in her eyes. Almost like she just lost the trust she had for me.

"BWAHAHAHA Wow what a nice friend you got Dash!" The other said laughing.

"But that doesn't mean i'm gonna let you two bully Rainbow Dash like this. So you're going to tell me why you are spreading these rumors that Rainbow Dash here is a goddamn lesbian. Tell me that right now." I said as calm as I could despite the hint of anger escapeing my mouth. They slowly stopped thier laughing and looked up at me.

"Well because it's fun as can be. Makeing everypony think that Rainbow Crash here is something she isn't. Just seeing her all sad and upset is just great. Oh and we know she is a lesbian. I mean nopony we know hangs out with mares as much as she does." They both said taking turns.

"But i'm not a lesbian!! Can't I hang out with my friends once and awhile?!" Dash yelled in anger at the two.

"What will convince you two to stop spreading rumors about her not being straight?" I asked. They then looked at eatchother with an evil grin.

"She has to prove it. Right now in front of us." They said. Now that....that was NOT what I excpected at ALL! I looked at Dash whos face was as red as can be. I could feel my face get a little red as well. I then crouched down to her size. She just looked into my good eye as I looked into one of her rose eyes. For somereason I just felt.....well a little attracted to her just then. I guess she felt the same. She just sunndely went foward putting her lips against mine. She wrapped her forelegs around my neck to keep me close. My heart then began to beat really fast and thoughts whet through my head.

"Oh god oh god I am kissing a FUCKING HORSE!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME!!?? No...no she isn't some horse....she's just like any other human girl....just looks different......she's a human girl at heart." That's when I wrapped my arms around her gently as she melted into the kiss. I don't know how long the kiss lasted but when it finaly ended I pulled away from the kiss. Her face was still a little red as she opened her eyes. I looked at the left of us and saw that the two ponies that were there had seemed to have flown away. I looked back at Dash and smiled at her. She smiled back at me. I guess I just found my soulmate for this new world.

After another long kiss I stood up breaking the kiss with Dash. She then stood on all of her hooves as we walked out of the allyway. But she went ahead of me a little bit and wrapped tail around my hand. I held her hand with a small smile on my face. It's wierd in a new world what can happen and how you can quickly adapt to things. But as we went through the town two ponies sunndely flew right infront of us. One was a mare and the other was a stalion. Dash quickly un-wrapped her tail from around me and hid behind me. I took that as a hint that she was afraid of them. I looked at them with a hint of anger in me ready to fight.

"Who are you two?" I asked ready to fight.

"We are the parents of Rainbow Dash." The stalion said calmly.

(AN: TROLOLOLOLOL I left with a cliffhanger. HAHAHAHA oh well. So if you guys don't like that TOUGH!!!!! But yeah hope you like this and thanks to "Bronyboy777" this couldn't have been done. Please check his stuff out and comment. He needs help to become a better writer. CYA NEXT TIME!!!!)

A Helping Hoof

The night went by quickly as I woke up awhile later. But it wasn't a pleasant wake up call. No far from it. It was terrible for me and Dash alike. I woke up to Dash twitching in her sleep whimpering and crying with her eyes closed tightly. I quickly grabbed her shoulders trying to wake her up by shaking her a bit yelling.

"DASH! DASH WAKE UP!" I yelled with fear in my voice. Dash was still in her nightmare. All I could hear beyond her whimpering was her saying.
"Daddy.......... Mommy....please stop....." That made me want to wake her up even more. Then I could only think of one thing to wake her up from this.

"I'm so sorry for this Dash." I said as I with alot of regret hit one of her wings. That's when her eyes shot open and she yelped in pain. But when she looked at me into my eyes she quickly wrapped her forelegs around me holding me close as she openly sobbed into my shoulder. I just held her close to me trying my best to calm her down. I rocked back and forth giving her soothing noises. I would give her a kiss on her head trying to calm her. It took awhile but she finally calmed down enough.

She pulled away from the hug but kept her forelegs around my shoulders. I looked into her eyes and saw that the one that was swollen the night before was now back to normal. I would never understand this world for the life of me.
"You ok now?" I asked. She just nodded as she wiped away her tears from her face. I just ran my right hand through her mane trying to show her how much I cared for her. I was so sad when I saw the state she was in yesterday and what had happened to her form her parents. I knew that it was her parents mainly from what kind of state Dash was in the night before and how she was whimpering from the nightmare that she was having. The sun was just starting to peek over the horizon and was showing a little bit of light through the small window.
"John.... thank you for what you did...and the risk you are going through." Dash said as she just leaned against my shoulder. I just put my arms around her and held her close. I knew the risk I was in and what would happen if I kept Dash with me. The parents could do anything. From contacting the royal guards to taking matters into their own hands. I didn't care what they would do and what could happen. If it came down to it I would rather die than let those....monsters have Dash for another second.

After awhile Dash pulled away from the hug. I then heard a knocking at the front door. I gave Dash a quick peck on the forehead and got up. Dash didn't seem to want to let me go because she kept one of her forehooves on my left hand. I went down the stairs with Dash slowly behind me. She stayed at the top of the stairs as I made my way downstairs. I walked to the door and opened it. Standing there was two royal guards. They had gold like armor around them along with blue like mane and tail. No emotion was in their faces.

“Can I help you?” I asked.

“We are here to take back Miss Rainbow Dash to her rightful parents. Her parents said that they came back home and saw that she was missing. They told us about you and we came as soon as we could seeing that we had to protect her from a person like you.” One of the guards said. I was in shock from this. Her parents really didn’t want me to be near her at all.

“So they blame me don’t they.....well then explain why last night I saw Rainbow Dash walk inside with a black eye and two broken wings. I helps her and i’m taking care of her. So it was her parents not me.” I said defending myself from blame.

“Well.....we have to hear it from her point of view first.” One of the guards said. I turned and saw that Dash was walking down the stairs and made her way beside me. I crouched down to her size.

“What do I have to do?” Dash asked one of the guards.

“Well if you don’t want us to take you back to your parents then you have to tell us exactly what happened first.” The guard replied.

“Do I have to tell you now or can it wait a while?” She asked.

“You have to tell us now. Or you can wait till your parents come and get you.” Damn these guards showed no mercy. I looked back at Dash who let out a sigh.

“Ok......ok I guess now it is then.” She then sat down as I did the same beside her. I wanted to know what those monsters did to her, but I also wanted to be there for her. I put my arm around her as she leaned into me. She then began the story on what happened.

“Ok.... how I got these broken wings was from my parents. As they flew away from John they just yelled at me. Saying one thing after another on how worried they were of me and were glad I was ok. For just a few seconds I thought they would’ve changed, but that wasn’t the case at all. As soon as we got to my house they threw me into the front door breaking it. Then my dad kicked me into the table that was in the living room breaking that as well. While I was on the ground both my mom and dad took both of my wings....then stepped on them with all the force they had. My wings were broken from that.” Her eyes got watery as she turned her head into my shoulder. I just gently put both my arms around her and held her close as she began to quietly cry. I looked up at the two guards that now instead of having no expression on their faces they had nothing but anger in their eyes.

“This is an outrage! John we are sorry for falsely accusing you of what happened to miss Dash. Pvt. We are going to the princess about this. We have a lot of work to do today.” The other guard nodded as the two immediately took off and went to canterlot. I was happy that they left to get the ones that did this to Dash. I looked down at Dash who was still crying. I never thought in my life that I would see her this way. I heard a noise and when I looked up I saw that it was Twilight along with the rest of her friends. I knew them all from the visits they did along with Dash. They all had a look of surprise on their faces. Fluttershy seemed to be close to tears. I turned my attention back to Dash who was slowly calming down from her breakdown. I could never imagine what she went through at the time. I mean even though I have only one eye for the rest of my life I did have parents that both cared and supported me all through my life I knew them. But from what I saw and heard Dash didn’t.

Dash the pulled away from the hug tears streaming down her face. I wiped away the tears and gave her a warm smile. She smiled back as she quickly leaned forward and placed her lips against mine. I just kissed back as we both closed our eyes. The kiss lasted for close to a minute until I pulled away.

“Thank you John. For everything you’ve done for me.” Dash said with a smile.

“Of course Dash. Anything for you.” I said as I pulled her into a hug. As I looked at her friends they all seemed to be smiling a little bit now. But I knew in my heart that this was only the beginning of what was to come and the challenges that we all would have to face. Mostly for the safety of Dash.

(AN:Ok well here it is. The next chapter and I guess this would count as the end of the first book or whatever. Now this WILL keep going just won't be that much of updates for a bit now because of my other fics and what’s going on right now. Oh this chapter is dedicated to a close friend who has a rough life and dealt with both terrible parents and near death experience.

CYA NEXT TIME!)

Recovering

It has now been a week since Dash had to explain to the royal guards what happened to her. The good news is that the mom was taken into custody the day of their search. Four days ago that happened and now the dad was still out there. Dash is in so much fear this past week. Several times I woke up to Dash sobbing in her sleep or her frantically looking around in the shadows thinking that he was right there hiding. One night she even tried to fly away taking off the splints that were given to us at the hospital. Then she would try to either jump out the window and jump or fly down the stairs. Each time I managed to wake up just in time to grab her and calm her down the best I could. That was all in one week...now for day eight.
______________________________________________________________________________

Day Eight

I woke up to a usual sound. Dash was whimpering in her sleep again. To say the truth I got used to this. Not that I wanted it to continue I really wanted it to stop. But I went through it just for Dash. Dash was tossing and turning in her sleep her wings seeming to have been twitching while she slept. But something seemed off now. It was as if I was....asleep but awake at the same time. I looked over to Dash and where I thought she was and she wasn’t there. It was just the part of the bed folded to the bed. Almost as If Dash never was there. But the whimpering was still loud along with the sobbing. I got out of the bed and tried to look around the dark room. No matter where I went she wasn’t there.

“Dash where are you?!” I yelled hoping I would get an answer. My only response was the sobbing and whimpering of Dash. This was becoming both scary and weird. I could hear her but I just couldn’t see her. I would even turn around as if she was there only to be met by blackness.

“JOHN HELP PLEASE!” I heard Dash suddenly yell. I became more frantic as I began to search everywhere. I flipped chairs,tables, the bed, and even kicked down the closet doors. I still couldn’t find her anywhere.

“DASH WHERE ARE YOU!?” I yelled at the top of my lungs.

“Turn around dumbuck.” I heard a deep male voice say. I turned around quickly only to see the dad of Dash behind Dash. He had both of her wings in his hooves as if he had a grip on them. He had an evil smirk on his face eyes now beat red with blood. I looked at Dash who was being forced on her hind legs tears streaming down her bloody face. Her muzzle looked broken blood dripping out of her nose and her right eye was deep red almost as if a blood vessel had broken inside her eye.

“John.....please help.” She said between sobs. But before I could say anything the dad rose his right foreleg and put it firmly against her back. Next thing I heard was the sound of bone and flesh breaking and what I saw horrified me to no end. The wings of Dash were torn from her body as blood and crimson flew everywhere. That’s all I saw before I woke up to Dash screaming my name.

“John wake up!” She yelled. My eyes opened slightly and then I sat straight up letting out a horrified gasp of air. I was in cold sweat and breathing heavily. I turned to my right and saw a horrified Dash sitting there half way under the covers. Her wings in splints and look as if nothing bad happened to her. The cuts and bruises now fully healed. I didn’t even think as I just put my arms around her pulling her into a deep hug. She just put her forelegs around me hugging me tightly back. I began to cry both from relief and fear. Relief from her being ok and fear from the nightmare I just had.

“Dash I had the worst nightmare ever. Something happened to you and I couldn’t help you....your dad was there.” I said. She stayed quiet for a bit until she spoke.

“John....what did he do? Did he hurt me?” She asked. I just held her tighter no longer crying anymore.

“Yes he did Dash....I couldn’t do anything to help you...it all happened too fast.” I said. She just pulled away from the hug a little keeping her forelegs around me.

“Don’t blame yourself John.....I know that you would do anything for me and try to keep me safe...that’s enough for me John and we both know it.” That’s when she leaned forward giving me a loving kiss. I just kissed her back as it lasted for several minutes. I pulled away from the kiss breaking it.

“Thanks Dash...it was pretty bad.” I said.

“I know. I saw how much you were squirming and saying my name quietly. But I know you were screaming.” She said. I just nodded at her as I pulled her into a hug. I looked out the window and saw that it was bright and it looked nice outside. A small smile crept onto my face.

“Well today's the day Dash.” I said as I pulled her away. She smiled back at me.

“Yep today’s the day I can get these bandages off finally and John...thanks for everything you did for me.” She said as she nuzzled me in the chest before getting out of bed. I followed her as she left the room so I could change. I opened my drawer and saw the many clothes that Rarity made for me. I pulled out a Blue T-Shirt and Blue shorts. You can tell I like shorts. I quickly changed and went out my door making my way downstairs.

“C’mon John I wanna get these things off!” She whined already at the open door. I just chuckled as I rushed down the stairs and was out the door in a second. Dash was in the lead as we rushed down to the hospital. Sadly on the way was the prison of ponyville. It was close to the hospital but was never talked about and ponies rarely went past it. But we just so happen to go past the big building. It was at least five stories high, had bars on each window, and just looked demonic as hell. Dash stopped her trotting and began to walk slowly by. She looked at the building and just as she did that there was a snap of a twig behind us.

“It’s him!” She yelled as she cowered behind me. I turned and saw that it was just an animal running by. I let out a sigh as I was reminded that the father was still out there. I crouched down to her size turning back to her. She was visibly shaking. I just put my arms around her as I held her close trying my best to calm her down. She just hugged back tightly as if her life depended on it.

“Dash....I have no idea how scared you must be....but I promise you I will protect you to my best ability. We are almost at the hospital....lets go ok?” I said to her with a soothing voice. She nodded as she pulled away from the hug not before kissing me quickly.

“Thanks John.....lets go.” She said as she began to trot away again at a steady pace. I let out a sigh as I followed her. Little did I know that there would be something terrible in the near future that would happen.

Healed...For Now

Chapter 10

Healed.......for now

Rainbow Dash and I walked into the hospital I once could have called home over a week ago. Nurse Redheart looked up at both Dash and I. She smiled at us and I replied with a smile back.

“Well isn’t it one of my regulars Rainbow Dash. Here to get those wings free from that cast?” She asked as she walked up to us.

“You bet I am! I mean what kind of weather pony would I be if I can’t fly? Or future wonderbolt I may add.” She replied boasting. I just chuckled to myself as Nurse Redheart led us to an empty room. Without missing a beat Dash hopped onto the bed and sat there waiting patiently. But what surprised me was that Redheart looked at me instead of getting beside the bed to take of Dashes casts.

“Something wrong?” I asked.

“Well it has been over a week almost two since you were reasled from the hospital. Did you forget about your eye?” She asked. That’s when it hit me. I realized that I arrived in ponyville less than a month ago.......right after the explosion. I let out a sigh.

“Oh yeah.....that. So do I have to get a check up or something?” I asked. The Nurse nodded. I just shrugged, a little angry, and made my way to the second bed that was in the room. I sat down on the bed and suddenly my memory of laying in a bed just like the one I was on came back. Me laying there as I got the news and reveal of my eye forever gone.

“John....are you ok?” Redheart asked worridly. I looked at her and Dash both of them seeming worried. I shook my head quickly to get back to reality and hopefully the two didn’t know what I was thinking. Of course Dash seemed to know what I was remembering because she had sort of a sad look in her eyes. I let out a sigh.

“Yeah...yeah i’m fine just remembering is all. So is it ok if we get this done so that Dash could get her wings free?” I asked. Redheart nodded with a small smile on her face. But I could see in her eyes-........eye that she was remorseful. She went beside the bed, lifted one of her hoofs to my eyepatch and slowly took it off. I could see that she smiled a little.

“Well this is good. Your wound you have here is actually half way healed by now. In about a month you won't need a eyepatch because the wound is close to becoming a scar. Soon the only thing that would show you were in a accident is a scar on your eye.” She said this all with a smile. Probably hoping that it would put my mind to ease. To be honest.....it didn’t....not at all.

I was happy she tried to help me feel better....it just wasn't enough. So she went on with checking the other parts of my face. The many small specks of scars and after a few minutes she was done putting the eye patch back on my eye. I gave her a small smile....a fake smile.

“Thanks for that Nurse Redheart. I just hope these check ups won’t have to happen much longer.” Redheart just smiled back as she turned around and made her way to Dash. I got up and walked close behind her. When Redheart stopped on the right side of the bed I sat down beside Dash. She looked at me and smiled at me either from getting her wings un casted for who knows how many times....or that I was there with her instead of leaving waiting for her outside.

Redheart just gave a small chuckle as she went to work with the casts. Half an hour passed before she got them completely off.

“Alright Rainbow Dash remember what I told you before. Don’t over do it on the flying and at least stay on the ground as much as possible only doing stretches for the next few days.” Before Redheart got to the don’t over do it Dash was already off and running for the door wings extended. I let out a small laugh and looked at Redheart.

“You do know that you are talking to Rainbow Dash here. Nothing can keep her from flying you know.” I said. Redheart let out a sigh and then a chuckle.

“Yeah I know why do I even try anymore.” She replied. I got up from the hospital bed and began to make my way to the doorway but was stopped by Redheart quickly getting in front of me.

“Huh....is there something you wanted to tell me? Sorry I didn't know.” I said.

“It’s fine. I just wanted to tell you that I think you two make a perfect couple. You think I didn't notice that cut on your face? That’s where you got hurt from trying to defend her from her dad isn't it?” She asked. I nodded surprised she noticed that. She just smiled at me and trotted away to help another pony somewhere in the hospital.

With that i walked outside and saw Dash flying in the air. Doing tricks, spins, hitting clouds, and smiling all the way. I just stood there arms crossed as she had her fun. I didn’t mind waiting really. I was just glad she was happy. Only when she looked down did she realize I was waiting. She then flew down in front of me with a sorry look on her face.

“Sorry about that. Got caught up in the moment. I mean over a week I couldn’t fly and now I can. So I just had to get all the flying I missd in.” She told me. I just chuckled as I crouched down to her size.

“That’s alright I don’t mind waiting. Look I have to go to Raritys to get a new pair of clothing and after that the market to get some more food. So you can go and have fun for awhile. Maybe get all the work you owe done?” I asked. She just let out a angry huff.

“Ugh.....forgot all about that. You just had to remind me?” She asked playfully angry. I chuckled.

“Well if I didn’t who would? Anyways we better get going. I’ll see you back at my house ok?” I asked. She nodded and before I could get up she wrapped her forelegs around me.

“You forgot to do one thing.” She said. Before I could say anything she leaned forward and placed her lips against mine. I jsut closed my eye and kissed her back. Her soft lips pressing against mine. We held onto the moment for a few seconds before breaking lip contact.

“Sorry about that. I won't forget next time.” I told her. We just gave each other a smile, another quick kiss, and were up and off to do what we had to do. After a few minutes I looked up and saw a dark fured pegasus flying through the air. I didn't think much of it......only thing was........in just a hour my life and Dashes life would change......for the worst.

Two Hearts Becoming Seperated

Chapter 11

Two Hearts Becoming Separated

As I walked through the town of Ponyville some of the ponies would look at me for a second, wave, and continue on with their day. I would wave back at them with a small smile towards them as my reply. As I walked my mind kept going back to that one pegasus I saw flying in the air.

“Ah stop worrying yourself over that John. It’s just another pegasus flying around.” I told myself. I guess couldn't blame myself with being a little worried about how Dash would still be safe. I mean her parents did abuse her and my mind was still on that moment when her dad did hit me pretty hard in my gut to get her back. I quickly shook my head to get that memory out of my head. Then I remembered that I was on my way to Rarity’s.

After I got there I knocked on the door and after a few seconds Rarity opened the door. She had on her work glasses that she always wears when she's working on any kind of clothing. She smiled at me when she saw me.

“Ah John I was expecting you. Please come in I go your...shorts you call them ready for you.” She said as she stepped aside with a smile. I smiled back and walked inside. Her bouquet on the inside was neatly organized all around along with manikins of ponies to help her make her designs. She closed the door and led me to where she had my clothing I asked for. She opened a drawer and took my shorts out with her magic them being covered in a light blue auera. I was hoping they would be a good fit because I wasn’t gonna let her masure me at all. So I gave her my size and such so I could only hope.

“Thanks Rarity I really appreciate.” She gave me a small smile as a response. I smiled back and began my way to the door only for her to quickly stop me with a question.

“How’s Dash?” She asked quickly. I turned and looked at her.

“Well shes doing great. Just got her casts off of her wings. As soon as that happened she just flew off for awhile happy as can be.” I replied.

“Mind if you sit and talk for a little bit please?” She asked. I shrugged.

“Of course I don’t mind.” I said as I made my way to the couch that was in the middle of the living room, or more of her work space. Once I sat down she sat on the adjacent couch in front of mine. “So what do you wanna talk about?” I asked.

“I wanna talk about how you and Dash are holding up. I mean it’s been how long since her mom went to prison? Plus how long since she got the casts on her wings? Last time we talked was three weeks. I hope i’m not intruding or anything.” I held up my hand and shook my head.

“Oh don’t worry you're not. Well she just got them off her wings and despite what the doctor said is flying around.” Rarity chuckled as her hoof went to her face shaking her head. “Plus despite the nightmares she has been having she is holding up just fine. A few times she was so afraid her mind would go on something else. Like while she was having a nightmare she would try to jump out of the window. Or run out the door. More than once I had to go out in the dark to try and find her. Only for her to be under a tree sobbing.” Rarity lowered her head acting like she should’ve known this long ago. I reached over and placed my hand on her hoof.

She looked at me surprised only to be met by a small smile I was giving her.

“I can tell you blame yourself for not knowing. Don’t Rarity alright? She kept herself in my house while she recovered so even when I wanted you five to come she wouldn't allow it. I have no idea why really. I never bothered to ask since she seemed to be in so much pain already. So if anyone is to blame it’s me for not keeping you five in the loop.” I pulled my hand away. I saw a small smile appear on her face.

“Thank you. Are you always this good at seeing ponies depressed in some way?” She asked. I shrugged.

“Only those that are important.” After than the subject changed pretty quickly to something else. From other clothes I would want to have for the future to what kind of pass time I would like to do. Hers of course is dresses while mine is reading mostly. TV was never invented here so really books was all. We shared a few laughs and such. Until she came to the relationship.

“So John relationship wise how are you and Rainbow Dash doing?” She asked. I chuckled at thi.

“We’re doing just fine Rarity. Though with how long this relationship lasted we might hit a few bumps down the road soon I am sure. How about you? You find a stallion yet?” I asked. Her eyes went wide and her face went a slight shade of red.

“Well....no but....I do have my sights on one.” I leaned forward interested.

“Do tell. What’s his name?” I asked. Her face got even a deeper shade of red.

“Well.....you should mean.....her name.” She shrunk against the couch and tried to hide her face. I will admit I was really surprised to hear her...but hey you like who you like.

“Ok then what’s her name?” I asked seeming unfazed. She looked at me face still red.

“You...you don’t think it’s weird....for me to like another mare?” She asked seeming surprised herself.

“No. In my book it doesn’t matter who you like. It’s your life you choose. She sat up more from the couch and looked me in the eye.

“Not the reaction I was thinking really. I thought you would call me a freak. Well....her name is....Applejack.” Again surprised but not as much. I don’t know why. Maybe the shock of learning that Rarity was into mares took most of the shock. But I kept my composure and talked as if it didn’t bother me for it really didn't.

“Well how long has this crush of yours been lasting.” She seemed to get slightly less tense from me talking so calmly to her. She let out a long sigh as she gathered her thoughts on what to tell me.

“Well....for a long time now. At least a year now. I don’t know what really happened or how it clicked it just...did. Sometimes I wake up wondering if this is even right. I mean even though there aren’t as many colts as there are mares it still doesn’t seem right to like another mare.” I clapped my hands together as I tried to think of what to say to her.

“Well you do like her?” I asked. She just let out a sigh as she thought on how to answer me honestly. A answer came to her head.

“Yes...I truly do. I mean for as long as I can remember. From when the first spark hit.” She said with a hint of fear in her voice. I smiled.

“Well there you go. If you truly like her then go ahead and admit it to her. If she doesn’t like you well...it could happen you never know. You just gotta take the risk you know? Love is a hard thing to understand but sometimes you just gotta take the chance. Love can’t be earned without being brave. I mean look at me? I’m a human with a pony. If I can get with a mare i’m sure you can get with a mare....errrr that sounds bad but....you get what i’m saying right?” She nodded with a smile.

“Thanks John it helps. You know I will go now and try my luck right now.” She got up and made her way out the door in a flash with the closed sign twirling in a circle. I chuckled as I got up and made my way out the door with my clothes I got from her. But as soon as I got out the door I saw Rarity standing there looking up with a shocked look on her face. I followed her stare and saw what she was looking at. I saw Dash flying frantically away from the same black figure following her.

“DASH!” I yelled when suddenly her wings went limp and she was spiraling to the ground. I dropped my clothes and ran forward as fast as I could to try and get under her. My arms stretched out as she tumbled to the ground. I jumped just in time to catch her. I just did in time and caught her as we fell to the ground. We rolled but I made it where my arms were able to stop her from getting hurt from the gravel. When we sled to a stop I sat up quickly and saw why she fell. Her wings were colored red as blood flowed out and onto my clothes. Her eyes were half open tears falling down her face. Her breathing was wheezy and ragged.

On instinct I put pressure on her wing with my left hand while my right held her up. Ponies were crowding around us mumbling. Until one yelled something but I couldn’t hear. A tear went down my face as Dash rose her shaky hoof to my face. I didn’t know what to do besides stopping blood. Then just like that her eyes seemed to turn grey and her body went limp. Her hoof fell to the ground. My eye went wide and I knew what happened. She died in my arms. I didn’t know what to do...except start sobbing.

“So...you're my other target. Well i’ll make this quick.” I looked up and saw him. The figure that did this. He was pure black with blood red eyes. Knife in his mouth blood all over it. My sadness turned to anger as I slowly got up placing Dash on the ground. I ran forward yelling in anger as I tried to attack him. I wanted to kill him....to kill that fucker. He just smiled as he jumped into the air with his wings...only I jumped and caught him off guard. I threw him to the ground making the knife fly out his mouth. I grabbed it in mid air and jumped into the air and hurled the knife into his throat. His eyes went wide and he just died. I slowly got up looking at my bloody hands. Realization got to my head as I realized how everything happened.

“Stop!” I heard a deep voice say. I turned just to be blasted by something and I fell down in a heap. Vision black.

The Dreaded Day

Chapter 12

Two Hearts Becoming One

The Dreaded Day

All I saw was black. I couldn’t open my eye no matter how hard I tried. But only then did I realize that they had put a blindfold over my face. Whoever they were. My hands bound behind me as I sat in a chair.

“He’s awake. Go inform the princess.” I heard a deep voice say. I groan in pain my back and head killing me terribly. The voice chuckles. “Glad to hear your voice still works, though I was hoping the blast I shot at your back had killed you. We saw you holding Rainbow Dash and you charged at a pony who was trying to save her. You one innocent pony and injured the other” I looked to where the voice was and tried to speak only for my words to be muffled.

So.....he’s awake. Take off the blindfold.” From the voice I could tell it was princess Celestia. Then the blindfold was thrusted off my head painfully whiplashing my head and cracking my neck. I let out a quick sound of pain only for a sharp pain to meet my left cheek and I knew it was a hoof of some kind. I gritted my teeth in anguish holding back my sound of pain.

“Shut up you filth!” I heard another voice say. Sounded like another Stallion. I finally opened my eye realizing I was in a dark room lit by only a few torches letting me see the three ponies in the room. To my right was a Brown coated stallion with a green mane. His face covered by a helmet along with a golden chest plate. I looked to my left and saw another one only he was covered in a completely black cloth. I couldn’t even see his face at all and he just put his hoof on the ground. He was the one who hit me.

“That is enough. No need to cause him more harm than you already did Flash.” Princess Celestia said. I looked at her as she looked at me and had the look of anger in her eyes. I knew she thought I was the one who had killed Dash and wounded the other one even though I thought I killed him. I looked away not wanting to face the one who had trusted me in protecting Dash. I felt a force make me look at her. It wasn’t by her, but by the unknown stallion. Celestia moved her head closer and looked into my eye.

“Princess.....you know we can’t let him live....he assaulted a pony and killed another.” The princess kept eye contact with me for a few seconds. She sighed before standing straight up again.

“Yes....I understand....this is a worse offence than when even Discord was free. Are....the gallos ready?” The stallion nodded. The force on my face was released when a knock on what seemed to be a door was heard. My head went limp as I looked straight down and all I heard was door opening and closing. Hoofs were falling against the ground not one but.....several. Seconds pass before all the hooves stopped.

“John....please look up.” I knew the voice was of Twilight Sparkle. I did so looking at her as I felt blood slowly go down my cheek where I was hit before. She uses her magic and gently takes the cloth covering my mouth off.

“Twilight....” I said my throat dry and painful to talk. I looked around and saw Applejack and Pinkie pie. Pikies mane was as flat as can be along with her tail. Appejack had a sad look on her face and when I looked back at Twilight so did she.

“Why John....why do what you did?” As soon as I heard that my heart sunk and I felt tears start to form in my eye. I lowered my head.

“I’m blamed.....for something.....a.....fucking murderer did to Dashie....why would I...do such a thing to her...” Tears fell from my eye as my voice broke several times.

“Stop whining! I hate it when they play innocent.” I heard the one named Flash say. I look up at him wanting to just shut his smart mouth.

“How can we not? All the ponies there say they can't recall anything that happened or refuse to speak about it....and the guard who apprehended you said he saw you kill the other pony. So all we can do is put what we know together.” I looked up at Celestia my vision blurred. Then a thought shot through my head. If they said one pony was killed and another survived....

“Tell me now! Is Dash alive!?” She looked at me. She was hesitant to answer.

“Yes....she survived....but is in a coma. She suffered from severe wing trauma and head damage. So we are unable to ask her what happened. So under pressure from the rest of Canterlot and Ponyville officials they demand....that you are put to death.” I just looked at her dead in her eyes with my only one. I gripped my hands hard.

“Do....do you promise....to protect Dash?”

“Once you are dead she will be.” Flash said. Celestia gave him stern looking making him shut up. She looked back at me.

“We always have....don't worry she will be safe.....we need to get you up.....the execution happens now.....before they get too upset possibly barging in to kill you themselves.” Celestia said. I nodded. Despite all the unanswered questions and false accusation they put on me I knew if I fought it would make it worse.

I didn't want to fight anymore for I just wanted to just give up. I didn't want to go through with all the drama more than I had to. I felt myself standing up my ropes getting loose and once I was standing up on tired legs the ropes tightened. I was then lead out of the room and into a long hallway. The guards are on either side of me Celestia leading the way the other mares lead another way by Twilights brother. After a few minutes I was outside the sun in my face the sound of yelling ponies filling my ears. Names were shouted at me of anger and lust for my death.

A long line was formed and in the middle of what seemed to be the square was a guillotine with one rope seeming to be risen for me. I was shoved forward to begin walking. I sighed and did so the walk terrible. Ponies threw rotten food at me and even cider bottles. After a few minutes I was on the guillotine and the rope was placed around my neck sternly.

"Any last words?" The pony in the cloth asked. I shook my head. I saw him smile as he walked to the lever. I closed my eyes as I waited for my death.

"Stop!" I heard a voice saying cutting through the silence. I opened my eyes and standing there was Rarity. "I know what really happened! You are about to kill an innocent person someone who saved Rainbow Dash! Don't kill him!" I smiled happy to see that she was there at that moment. Silence was heard as ponies talked amongst themselves wondering what happened. Two guards flew down to here and one behind me.

"We have a witness. Take the rope off his neck." The guard ordered. I looked and saw him grin.

"Sorry.....I got a job to finish...." The quickly pulled the leaver as I saw a glimpse of his black fur. Then I felt the floor give way and the rope tightening my neck.

The Execution

Chapter 12

Two Hearts Becoming One

The Execution

I can’t really remember what that feeling was like. The feeling of having the rope tighten around my neck and the sound of the rope creaking against the wood that was holding it in place. All the air that was in me escaped and it was one of the most painful feelings I had ever felt. I knew at that very moment I would end up dying without ever seeing her again. Suddenly, I felt an odd sensation, the pain I had felt before was evaporating. I opened my eye and saw Celestia’s horn flowing with magic as she held me in the air, the noose had become loose around my neck, Rarity pulled the rope off my neck and Celestia put me down next to her.

“Why did you save him!?” yelled Flash angrily.

“Because, I am proof that John didn’t hurt Rainbow, he saved her in fact!” Rarity defended me, the people around us looking astonished, mouths agape. I felt just as surprised as the spectators around us.

“Thank you, Celestia.” I said, looking up at her. She nodded, and I turned to Rarity.

“So, you saw everything?” I asked Rarity.

“Yes, I did.” Rarity replied.

Flash didn’t seem as keen on believing her as the rest of us.

“What if she’s just lying!?” yelled Flash in protest. He seemed to want to do more than yell, but with Celestia right next to me, I had a feeling he wouldn’t press his luck.

“I’ll have you know, I am far from a lier!” Rarity defended.

“STOP!” Celestia yelled in a deafeningly loud voice that seemed to shake the earth around them. I held my hands over my ears and closed my eye, and so did everyone else around her.

“I believe her, whether you do or not is of no concern to me, Flash.” Celestia said, staring Flash in the eye. A very intimidating look on her face.

“Y-Yes, your highness…” Flash said as he bowed his head to her and glared at me. Celestia turned to me.

“John, you are free to go, I express my greatest apologies to you.” said Celestia. I nodded, my throat still soar. I noticed Flash leaving as well as the spectators around us. Twilight and the rest of her friends gathered in front of me.

“W-We’re sorry, John...we should’ve believed you from the start…” Said Twilight, face full of regret.

“Yeah, you should’ve.” I replied, my voice sounding hoarse, and feeling very angry. How could they ever expect me to hurt the one I loved? Do I...really seem like that bad a person..? Twilight looked down and the rest of the ponies did so as well. I turned to Rarity.

“Thanks, Rarity.” I said.

“Well, of course, John. I couldn’t just let them execute you, you’re innocent!” She said smiling.

“I wanna see Dash.” I said quickly. All I could think about is Dash. I want to see her...shes alive…

Twilight looked up at me. “Yes, John, of course.” She replied. They lead me away from the place of my execution, I never wanted to go there again.

I walked with them for a while and eventually approached a hospital, Twilight lead me down a long hall and we stopped at a room with a wooden door and the number “110” the rooms number. I walked in and shut the door when Twilight tried to follow me. I walked over to the bed and looked down at the bandaged, and bruised Rainbow Dash on the bed. I felt the tears escaping my eye as I looked at her.

I pulled a chair over to the bed and sat down, I held her hoof and rubbed it, thinking about the first day I was in Ponyville. I put my head down on the bed next to her, and held her hoof against me.

I don’t know how long I was sitting there, but I never wanted to leave her side. She was there with me from the start. When I was brought there, after she saved me, to now. I never thought that it would end up like this. To tell the truth, I was truly hoping that it was me on that bed, like before. Me in pain, close to death, and Dash be the one worrying. As dark as it sounds, I would rather her be safe and scared than dying and in pain.

I’d give anything to trade places with her. A few hours pass while I just sat there until I heard the door open. Then, Rarity walked in alone with her head down. I looked at her, then back at Dash. I know it might sound mean, but I didn't want to see her at that moment.

The reason was because she had all this time to say something, to say anything, while I was getting arrested, but she just stood there or something I don't know!

"Um... how is she?" asked Rarity.

"She's still in the coma." I said with slight anger in my voice. I was glad I’d killed her attacker. Even if I was wrongfully accused of hurting two innocents. I looked at her and saw that she had a sad look on her face.

"I'm sorry that I didn't... come sooner it's just..."

"That in reality you don't really want me to be here. That I'm someone who you can't trust, someone who let Dashie get hurt and almost killed. So you blamed me for it, am I right?" I asked looking at her in the eyes. She had a look of shock and disbelief in her eyes.

"What? No, of course not! You’re wrong, John. You're my friend and someone who I care for as a friend. I would never want harm to come to you... I was just afraid to come forth because somepony came to me and threatened me..." I was looking at her, now confused, and saw that she was getting a little angry tears in her eyes.

"Wait... who?" I asked concerned.

"A pony in... black robes. I don't know who, but he said that he would hurt Sweetie Bell if I came forth. So for the sake of Rainbow Dash, I decided to risk her life and make sure you lived. I also did it to save a friend... a mistake I made." She said her voice shaky as she galloped off. Now instead of pure anger I felt so sad and depressed. I looked back at Dashie and then realized something I didn't notice before. Her wings were missing.

The shocking surprise

It was now a few weeks since I arrived in ponyville. Rainbow did manage to get me the eye patch I asked for and I now had it on my left eye. Funny thing was it didn't even feel like it was there really almost as if I never had an eye. Anyways I was at the check out counter now being able to move around on my legs. I sighned the papers so I could leave the hospital. Once I got to the doors to leave I was greated by Rainbow dash. She quickly became my friend in this world while I was in the hospital.

"Well glad to see that you're up and moving around John." She said with a smile. I smiled back at her.

"Well same to you. Besides if it wasn't for you then I don't think that I would've been able to last in there. I probely would've climbed the walls." I said. I then looked around ponyville. To my surprise everypony just looked at me, smileing with a wave, and went back to what they were doing.

"They learned the last time I think. Secnce when Zecora was here." Rainbow said.

"Who?" I asked.

"Zecora. She came here and everypony thought she was some sort of an alien. They seemed to have learned their lessons about meeting another speices. You never judge a book by its cover." I chuckled.

"Yeah.....if only we knew that back where I lived." I said my smile fading away. I quickly changed the subject. "Anyways do you know where we should go first?" I asked. Rainbow then chuckled.

"You are going to go see Twilight Sparkle. She will show you to your new house." I raised an eyebrow.

"What your not coming?" I asked. She shook her head.

"No sorry I have to with the weather team and figure out some things about where the clouds will go this coming storm." She is planning a storm.....jeez I will need alot of questions answered.

"Ok cya later then Dash." It was the first time I said her name like that. She just giggled as she then flew away to cloudsdale. Some town in the clouds....well that's how she explained it to me. I just went to the tree like house that was in the distance. I walked past many of the ponies and a lot more smiled and waved at me as I did the same to them. By the time I got to where I knew Twilight was I knocked on the door. A few minutes later the door opened to Twilight. She looked up at me and quickly recgonized me.

"Oh hey John. Glad to see that you are up and moving. So what brings here?" She asked. I smiled as I crouched down to her size.

"Well Rainbow dash said that maby you could come and show me where my new house is. So is that ok?" I asked her. She nodded with a smile.

"Yeah sure. Just let me go finish some of these notes I got in a book is that ok?" She asked. I shrugged.

"Sure I don't mind Twilight i'll just wait for you here."

"Great wont take long John." Then with that she turned and went into her house. Before I even got a chance to get up she came back in an instant.

"Ok done." She said with a smile. I looked at her with a surprised look.

"Um...ok well lead the way?" I asked. She nodded as she led the way after I clossed the door before I followed. When we got to the house I saw that it was near the everyfree forest. She led me in and gave me the tour of the house. She showed me from the couch all the way to where on of the two bedrooms were. I thanked her as she left and a few minutes after she left somepony knocked on the door. I went to open it and saw that it was Dash. Before I could even said a word she rushed inside and hit behind the couch. I just clossed the door and went over to her.

"Hey Dash why were you so scared that you had to run inside?" I asked as I crouched down to her size. She just tried to regain her breathing. When she got her breathing under control she let out a sigh as she got up and walked to the couch. I walked over and sat down beside her.

"Ok.......well there are these rumors going around and some of these ponies started yelling that I was a....lesbian...." She said the last part looking at the ground in depression. I was shocked. Why in the hell would they say this kinda stuff in this what I thought was the perfect world. I just did what came to mind. I wrapped my arm around her as she leaned into me. She let out a sigh as she clossed her eyes. I just held her close as she rested on me. I decided that I was gonna do somthing about this soon. About how they were spreading rumors about her and that mabe all of ponyville would know. But I had to concentrate on the situation at hand. After awhile she pulled away from the hug.

"You ok?" I asked. She nodded as she got off the couch then turned and asked.

"Mind if I crash here for the night. I mean if I try to fly to my house the bullies might be there." I shrugged.

"Of course Dash. You can have one of the two bedrooms. You can take one and i'll take the other. She nodded with a smile. I then got up as she made her way upstairs and into one of the other rooms. She left the door open as she crawled into the bed. I peacked in and saw that she was already laying under the covers of her bed. I couldn't help but smile as I made my way to the room right across from her room. I crawled into the bed leaveing my door open. I then went under the covers and fell asleep quickly.

(AN:Ok well here's another chapter for this fic. Ok sorry if it MIGHT be rushed. Anyways I think the romance part of the fic has started. If you want CERTAIN parts of the romance to happen just ask and I MIGHT add it in. Anywasy I gotta go and get some sleep for school tomorow......sadly. CYA NEXT TIME!!!!!)

The parents

I was shocked to see that these were the parents of Rainbow Dash. The mom had Yellow coat,with a blue,red,green mane. She had blood red like eyes. While the dad had a blue coat, red and yellow mane and red eyes. Dash still hid behind me seeming in fear. So I treated these two the same as I would for anyother pony that would want and try to hurt Dash or make her have fear.

"Well...... why are you here looking for her?" I asked. It was a stupid question but I had to ask it.

"Well isn't it obvious? We are looking for our daughter Rainbow Dash!" The mom said in an angry like tone. That was a nice first impression trying to get your daughter. Gives me another reason to not trust them and belive them. The dad held up one of his forehooves up to his wife to quiet her. He then walked until he was right infront of me. I was still taller than they were. They were probely a foot taller than Dash was.

"I'm sorry about that it's just she ran off earlier yesterday and we were trying to find her sence. Anyways my name is Ultra Dash and this is my wife Rainbow Love. So now that you know us I think that it's time for you to tell us what your name is?" He asked. Now this guy I liked.

"My name's John. Nice to meet you...I guess." I said. The dad smiled at me.

"Well John it was nice to meet you and thanks for takeing care of our daughter over night. Now would you be so kind in letting us take her back home please?" He asked. I turned and looked at Dash who was literly shaking in fear at this. It was a red flag for me.

"Well........no i'm sorry I can't do that." I said as I turned back at the dad. This time though he had no smile on his face. Instead he had an angry look on his face.

"I see.....well we can't let this happen like this. So how about this. I'll ask one more time John before I get 'Overprotective' for my daughter. Can we please take her home?" He asked. I didn't like how he said 'Overprotective' but I still refussed to change my mind. I got ready for a fight.

"Still no." I said flatly. He just chuckled then let out a sigh.

"Well I wish it didn't have to come to this John. Honestly I didn't." He said. I was about to ask what he was talking about when sunndely I felt force hit me in the chest hard and I went flying through the air. I hit the ground slideing across the ground until I came to a stop hitting the building that was closest. While I was gripping my stomach in pain I managed to see the dad pick up Dash and forcefully fly away with her. With all the strength I could gather I managed to get up and stagger follow them a few feet before falling back to the ground. That's when I blacked out from the pain.

I awoke probely a few hours later in my bedroom. I looked around and saw that it was around night time for me. I slowly got up from the bed into a sitting up position and then I got out. My stomach was in a good bit of pain but not alot. I walked down the stairs and saw that Twilight Sparkle was on the couch. I walked over and patted her on the back a little. She slowly opened her eyes and scratched them to see better. She saw me and quickly went wide eye.

"John! Oh my gosh you shouldn't be up! I mean I saw out knocked out in the square for some reason so with the help of Spike and Redheart I brought you here. But Redheart said that you wouldn't wake up till it was morning the next day." She said while I just chuckled a little.

"It's ok Twilight. I have been through worst as you can see....but what about Dash have you seen her lately?" I asked with a hint of worry in my voice. Twilight seemed to try and think for a bit then she got her answer.

"Well.....no not since the day before when she went to visit you John. That was the last time I saw her....how did you get hurt by the way?" Twilight asked. I let out a sigh as I began to explain to her what had happened from when the rumors had started to when I was hit in the stomach. I kept out the kissing part just in case that Dash didn't want that to spread around Ponyville yet.

"Oh my gosh....... so Dash really was telling the truth." Twilight said. I raised an eyebrow at this.

"What do you mean by that Twilight?" I asked. She let out a sigh as she continued.

"Well she always told us that her parents were always mean to her. She told us that it started with them yelling at her. I mean my parents did that sometimes when they got mad enough so we didn't think anything of it. But then one day we saw she had a black eye....and she told us she was hurt by her parents. We just thought she hit her head on a tree and when we told her that she seemed to belive that...but we didn't think that it would be this bad." Twilight finished. I was shocked at this.

"Wait....you didn't belive her when she told you all this? What would make you think that she would make this kind of stuff up?" I asked.

"Well we thought it was Rainbow just pranking us....or we made a huge mistake." She said.

"Yeah you did make a huge mistake....but none of that now we have to find her now." I said. Twilight nodded in agreement with me. She got up off the couch and we made our way to the door. But before we could the door swung open and standing there was a panting Rainbow Dash.

"Dash!!" I yelled in relife and surprise. Dash looked up at me and I saw what had happened to her. Her left eye was swollen black, her wings looked badly damaged, and she seemed to be crying terribly. I rushed to her side and when I crouched down to see what had happened to her she quickly wrapped her forelegs around me holding me close. I just hugged her back as I was now on my knees. I looked behind me and saw that Twilight was standing there in shock.

"Twilight I need you to go get some things ok? I need an ice pack, bandages, and anything that can keep her eings straight." I said. She nodded as she got out of her trance and quickly made her way to the fridge. She grabbed what I asked for and brought them over to me. She set them down beside me as Rainbow Dash slowly stopped crying. I was just glad to see that she was doing ok. When I let go of her she let her forelegs fall to the ground, but she still didn't keep her head off my shoulder.

"Ok...Twilight I need the bandages....and the sticks you found." Twilight nodded as she gave me what I needed with her magic. I then quickly but gently put the sticks on either side of her as I wrapped the bandages around her to keep her wings straight and together at her sides. Dash would wimper while I did this.

"Ok Dash.....now for that eye." I said soothingly. She nodded as she took her head off of my shoulder. I took the ice pack from the ground and gently placed it on her swollen eye. She yelped at first but let out a shaking sigh almost as if she was crying.

"Keep that on your eye Dash. I'm gonna get you upstairs and let out rest ok?" I said. She nodded as I got up picking her up. She used one of her forlegs to keep the ice pack on her eye. I looked at Twilgiht and she just nodded as she rushed outside closeing the door behind her. I walked up the stairs with Dash and when I got to my room I placed her gently onto the bed. When I did that I crawled in with her. I got under the covers with her as she looked at me takeing the ice pack off of her eye. Her eye was swollen shut but that didn't stop me from looking into her good eye. I gave her a heart warming smile even though in my heart I knew her wounds might have been serious. She just smiled back as I leaned foward giveing her a pationet kiss. She kissed back as we held that moment for awhile. When I finaly broke the kiss I looked at her. We then cuddeled close while I made sure to be careful of her wings.

We laid on the same bed as we fell assleep together.
