chapter 2

I woke up on the floor but for some reason i felt blind folded even though my eyes were open I couldn't see but all my other seances felt fine so I started to walk. Two minuets passed and soon enough. Bam right into a house.

"that hurt a lot." The sounds of my voice almost sounded like they didn't belong to me because of how long I had been in silent.

"eeep" came a voice from right next to me.The sudden noise scared me and made me tumble down a hill right into a little pond and soon I came to a stop after hitting my head on a bridge.

"ow that hurt."getting back to my hooves I soon got out of the cold water and stood at the edge of the lake and rubbed my head.

"are you ok" called out a voice hardly audible "your not hurt are you."asked the voice a bit louder and in more concern.

"yes I'm ok but I'm in need of a little bit of some assistance I think I have a blind fold on because I can't seem to see do you mind removing it please?" I asked in the most kindest tone I could manage.

"excuse me sir but there is no blind fold on your face. hold on while I come down and get you to see what the problem is."

the mare then comes down the hill and grabs my hoof lightly and helps me up the hill into what seems to be a building and leads me over to sit down. "ok now I need you to follow the light with your eyes ok."she asks in a nice pleading tone.'

"I'll try to my best ability." I say trying to focus."when ever you are ready."I tell her waiting to see the light.

"um excuse me sir you don't see the light already I've already started to shine it. If you don't see the light at all that must mean that you have gone completely blind."said the voice uneasily.a moment of silence passed by nether of them knowing what to say or do.then the mare broke the silence "If you need a place to stay your welcome to stay here with me...if that is ok with you."

"sure and thanks uumm what is your name? I don't think I caught it." I said happily now that the awkward silence was  over.

"flutter shy my name is flutter shy nice to meet you mr...."she paused and waited for my response.

"I'm known as the blindmoonrunner...kind of an ironic name don't you think."we chuckled a bit.

"here let me show you around and every thing.just follow my tail."she then put her tail on my nose and pulled it back quickly.noticing the condition I was in."oh my goodness we need to get you cleaned up right away."she noticed the dried up blood on my face and took me upstairs and told me to lay down on the bed and she would fix that really quickly, but when I got on the bed I started feeling light headed and the room started to spin and I started to try and call out to flutter shy but all I could do is mumble out loud  and roll around."I got the stuff now hold still while- oooo my are you ok?"questioned flutter shy."here let me heal your up."was the last thing I herd from flutter shy before going off into a deeply troubled sleep.

chapter 3

"you need to know not your fault!" a voice called out from the darkness.you stand there still and in shock."runner its not your fault you need to understand this. I know you didn't influence Luna but at this time Celestia might be surprised to see you but you need to find a way to convince her that you played no part in the mutiny that Luna pulled off she is coming back soon an-" the voice was interrupted by my sudden outburst.

"who are you and where am I.please just answer my questions."I said with fear not knowing whats going on.

"here let me help you out." after a few seconds of silence."there we go hows that."the voice said with a cheer.I soon noticed a light in the darkness and I sprinted toward it there was a chalk board with lots of information written on it.

"Wait I can see what happened?" I shouted happily

the voice replied "the princess cast a spell that turned you blind to mock you and also Luna is coming back you have been in a deep sleep for about 1000 years and Luna is coming back so now is you chance to see your sisters again but Celestia might not take lightly to your return. so you have to do this with great caution. there no telling what she might do after she finds out about your return but you will have to get a late start things trust me ok now I have to go but don't worry about your sister until next time we talk.ok I have to go!"

"but  you didn't tell me what to do!" I called out to the voice, but received no answer in returned. soon things started to fade again.

sizzle.whats that noise I thought to my self as I then tried to get up and realized that my legs failed me and I hit the ground and then tumbled fully on the floor. Then I herd a lot of thumping noises coming from the bedroom door. It startled me and made me jump at first but every thing went silent. After a few long seconds of sitting there on the ground I yelled "Flutter-" and was cut off by her squiking

"I'm right here" softly. then she trotted over to me and helped me to my feet.

"was that just you running up the stairs so loudly" I asked in confusion.

after a pause fluttershy said no my friends are here because one of my friends thinks she can help you get your vision back so we have come to take you back to her place where she can work peacefully...If that's ok with you"

"wow..really thanks a lot and ya that's perfectly fine with me... shall we." I said with a smile on my face.I was finally ready to have my sight back.Its getting really hard to walk around without knowing what any pony looks like or who is who.

"well actually...Some of my friends are here with me and were hoping to meet you..If that's fine with you of course."Fluttershy announced sounding a little uneasy.

"Sure that's fine with me.I like seeing new-" I paused.I forgot that I was blind and that little reminder made me feel different and unhappy.

"Are you ok?"Asked fluttershy in a concerning tone.I put on my most convincing face on from what I believed and lied

"Ya I'm fine and sure I love meeting new ponies." I replied.I would have went downstairs but I was to afraid to move not because of how sad I was but because I just plain didn't want to fall on my face again."But um fluttershy can you do me a favor and help me get down stairs I don't know your house that well?" I said a little embarrassed.

"Sure." she replied taking my hoof and guiding me through the room.

chapter 1

Wam! As a hoof go's flying into my face.

man it sucks not knowing whats going on.

"Take the sack off his head" called out Celestia.

"yes your hinest"said the guard doing as she asked

"whats going-"bam another hoof to the face

"silence!" commanded the guard after hitting me causing me to have blood start to drip from my nose.I could only glare at him in singing anger and pain.

"Runner you have been brought here to be sent away from the castle forever for the suspension of being the one to influence our dear sister Luna if there are any last words you have you should say them now.

"i didn't do any thing to her and you of all people should know this because-"bam another hit to the face and then another to the stomach.

"do not insult the princess you foul scum!" demanded the guard

"you are right shining armor he is scum punish him before we send him off I have work to be done."Celestia said.

"but your hinest-"pleaded shining armor

"I don't pay you to talk back now do it!" yelled the powerful sun god

"as you wish"shining armor said with a frown upon his face."sorry bro but I must do as she says please forgive me"he said trying to hold back tears.

"I forgive you and I know you have to do this"I told him trying to tell him its ok. soon he started throwing swing after swing hitting me in my stomach and face for about  2 hours.

the princess walked back into the chamber and watch shining armor finish up. I was ready to pass out from the raging pain.

"That enough I can handle things from here thank you for your services shining armor you may leave."said the princess satisfied with my poor state in physical health.she walked over and stood directly in front of me after shining armor left the room.she took her hoof and put it on my chin and pulled my face up so we were eye to eye."you are pathetic!"she yelled punching me in the stomach and dropping me causing me to look down.I don't know how much longer I can take this.I thought to my self while spitting out blood onto the ground."how could you discourage and change your own sister like that after all you two have been through.The laughing and the playing."Celestia said. "Well naturally i would have you executed but i think you should suffer like Luna has too."she said. A bright light illuminated the room and i was covered in a light white color luminous light and felt my head throb and passed out.
