A Brand New Life!

We had just escaped the castle from Chrysalis and were making our way through the forest, I was feeling a bit woozy as I walked from the experience I went through.

"Shadow, are you sure your ok?" Twilight asked as I took a moment to breath. I rubbed my head and nodded to them.

"Can we please keep moving?" Fluttershy said as she kept walking. "I really, really don't like it here."

As she was walking she tripped and fell, she cried in pain as she fell on her back. Me and Twilight quickly ran over to her and helped her back up to her feet, she cried again and held onto me.

I was wondering why she wasn't just flying to take pressure off of it but I looked back to see that her right wing was limp.

"Fluttershy, can you walk?" I asked trying to help her take pressure off her leg.She quicklt shook her head to say no from whatever pain she was having.

"Well, can you fly?" Twilight asked putting a hand on her shoulder. Fluttershy, again, shook her head to say no.

"Then theres no way that you can walk, or fly. So," I said picking her up bridal style. "I'm just going to have to carry you."

She let out a cute squeck as I did this, she also was blushing from my care for her. I looked back at Twilight for some reason also had a blush on her face.

"Let's get moving." I said starting to walk through the forest, Twilight made sure too stick close to me as we made our way out. Fluttershy seemed to bury her head into my chest as we walked through the forest, she must have really been scared of this place.

We all reached the end of the forest and looked around to find where we were at, Twilight pulled me towards a dirt path and she took lead.

After some time we were walking, we got to Fluttershy's house. I looked at the building and saw the door wide open, I thought back to the two imposters from eariler.

I looked down at Fluttershy who was nuzzled in my arms asleep, she was simply adorable. I walked in the house and saw Twilight close the door behind us.

"I going to go put Fluttershy in her room." I said walking up the staris, Twilight just walked over to the couch and sat down.

I got to Fluttershy's room and placed her gently on the bed, I took the cover and wrapped her up so she wouldn't get cold. I looked down at her slowly breathing form, the way her stomach went up and down as she breathed. I walked next to her bed and knelt down next to her and kissed her on the cheek.

"Sleep well, Fluttershy. You deserve it." I said as I walked out of the room. As I walked down the staris a strange feeling took me over, a feeling to look for something. I didn't know what but, something.

"S-Shadow." Twilight said softly, snapping me out of my trance. She seemed to be upset by something, I walked over to her on the couch and sat next to her.

"What's wrong Twilight." I asked softly.

She looked at me with nearly tears in her eyes. "I-I thought that you would, have left us and, join her."

"I'm sorry for misleading you both to that." I said holding her hand. "But, I would never leave either of you two."

"Shadow, promise me." She said moving closer to me. "That, you won't turn to them."

"I won't. It won't come to that." I said also moving closer.

It seemed sudden, she moved forward and made contact with our lips. I slowly closed my eyes and pushed forward into the kiss, when I was doing this I felt at peace.

I felt my mind getting fuzzy and I relized that I wasn't breathing. I pulled back and breathed heavily, Twilight was doing the same.

"S-Shadow," She said pulling me into a hug. "I-I...love you."

I held her gently and moved my hand along her back.

"I love you to, Twilight."

She pulled back from the hug and kissed me forcefully, which caused me to fall back onto the couch. I was a bit put off by her force but knew, I loved her and she was the real Twilight.

I put my hand and her back a caressed it slowly, causing her to moan into my mouth. She wrapped her arms around my neck, I felt something try and gain access to my mouth. I knew it was Twilight's tounge and open my mouth to her.

She slowly explored my mouth, making me start to tounge wrestle with her. She seemed to deepen the kiss and wrap our tounges together. She pulled back and looked into my eyes, she layed down on my body and whispered in my ear.

"I love you, Shadow." She wisps red going to sleep.

"I love you to, Twilight." I said closing my eyes and drifting off to sleep.

--

I sat up quickly and looked around me, everything was dark but some how there seemed to be light. I looked to the left and saw a weird figure standing there, it was glowing black like it was on fire. It had cold white eyes that stared into my sole.

I stood up and slowly walked backwards to get away from it, as I walked backwards it moved with super sonic speed and moved left too right and stood in front off me. It's eyes stared deeply into mine, it slowly brought it's hand to my neck and held it tightly.

It kept a tight grip on my neck as it's hold got stronger, it then stared to lift me up in the air by my neck. I could feel myself losin breath by the second, I gasped for breath as it's hold on me got harder.

"Oh would you leave the kid alone Star!" I heard Shade say as light suddenly cut on, reveling that the dark figure was a mare in a dark hoodie and black pants. She let me go and I fell to the floor breathing heavily.

"Oh come on, it's not like I was trying to kill him." She said looking at Shade. I looked back at Shade who seemed to be annoyed, he sighed and walked over to me and helped me up.

"Sorry about that," He said. "That other stone you picked up, was another element stone."

"The Darkness Stone." The mare said interrupting Shade, he gave her a glare which caused her to giggle.

"As I was saying, this is Black Star." He said looking back at her. "The reason we already know each other is when we were created, we were normal ponies. So far as we know there's six stones, from them they represent other elements."

"Shade, I think your about to break him." Black Star said noticing my confusion.

"Well, I'm sorry, I'm just having an incredibly hard time wrapping my head around all of this!" I said holding my head.

"Hey, Shadow was it? If your going to have us stuck in your head, your going to have to learn the rules."

"Star, don't start with that stuff again." Shade said as he faceplamed.

"Oh come on Shade, don't be a stick in the mud." Star said in a pouty face.

"What rules?" I said already afarid of the consequences.

"Rule one: Shade has already told you, don't ever turn your back on us." She said in a serious tone. I gulped and thought back to the moment Shade told me that.

"Rule two: don't be such a serious pony with things, like Shade her." She said as she nudged him.

"Rule three: always accept our help, we can always help you in a jam so be sure to accept it." She finally finished.

"Is that it?" I asked confused by the rules. "Seems easy enough."

"Ha, see this one knows how to have fun." She said poking Shade in the side of his stomach which caused him to jump.

"What ever, atleast someone here has too actual get something's done." He said as he walked off some where.

"Um, where's he going?" I asked Star as he vanished.

"He's going to rest, I saw what you did in that castle back there. A tough one is not what I took you for." She said with a small giggle.

"Well, I'm not one for fighting but if you hurt someone I care for. Your better off dead." I said rubbing the back of my head.

"Yeah, some times you gotta do what you gotta do." She said sitting down in a beanbag chair.

"Um, where did the beanbag chair come from?"

"We're in your head," She said tapping her head. "If your able to think of something and make it poof up in here, so can we."

I tilted my head from the infromation she just gave me, I shook my head and thought of a beanbag chair. I looked behind me to see it sitting right there.

"See, easy as that."

I sat down in the chair and got comfortable in the chair I had made.

"I could get used to this." I said putting my arms behind my head.

"Yeah, when your in this it's like a actual reality." She said rising out of her chair and walking away.

"So, relax." With that she faded out of my sight.

I blinked a few times and kept looking off in the direction she went to, I sighed and laided my head on the beanbag, I let my eyes shut and relaxed.
