A/N: Hello once again, I'm glad some of you liked the last chapter so shoutouts to all you guys who gave a review/follow/favorite, I greatly appreciate it. Now for the guest who was wondering if this was going to be "perverted" It's not going to be, I'm not like that bro. So anyway, here's the next chapter, hope you like it!
I slowly made my way back to the bed and climbed back in. I pulled the covers back over me and pretended to sleep, making snoring sounds and such. I heard the door slowly open with the sound of gentle hoofsteps walking in. When she got closer I made another groan of pain.
"Oh my, you poor thing. This should help ease the pain." Fluttershy said very softly as usual.
I then heard something that made me very uncomfortable. The sound of a hoof flicking a piece of glass as if testing a needle. I barely opened one of my eyes to see that's exactly what she was doing. She held a very small needle with a little bit of fluid.
Now for those who don't know me, which would be most of you, I HATE needles... they're like the most uncomfortable and painful thing ever. She saw me looking at her and started to walk towards me with the needle.
"Now just hold still, this will only hurt a little bit." She said sticking her hoof out about to stick me with the needle.
I rolled over off the bed and landed on my four hooves perfectly even though landing hurt really bad. My sudden action seemed to startle Fluttershy. I started walking backwards from her towards the window.
"No wait! You can't go! You're still injured!" She said with concern.
I really didn't care, I don't like needles, PERIOD. There's no way I'm getting one in me today. Not even from Fluttershy, absolutely not. I continued walking back towards the window one hoof at a time, wincing at the pain with every step. Man I really am hurting...
"Please! Don't go! Let me help you!" She said trying to court me back toward the bed.
I honestly was too scared to talk, so I didn't, I turned around and undid the latch keeping the window shut and climbed out of it and landed on some bushes. I looked up and turns out it was almost night time, I must have slept for a whole day or something. I got up and brushed myself off and started to run as fast as I could towards the Everfree Forest. Man I really wished I knew how to fly right about now. I could hear her soft voice in the distance behind me but I ignored her and continued to run.
By the time I reached the Everfree, it was very dark and I could barely see. But I still continued to run and I finally entered the forest. After I felt that I was far enough in it, I collapsed on the grassy surface. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea... I tried to get up grunting from the pain, I still hurt everywhere, I knew I couldn't get up so I rested my back against a tree that was right next to me.
I sighed and closed my eyes, but out of nowhere a loud scream pierced my eardrums causing my eyes to shoot open. It sounded a lot like Fluttershy which scared me. I stood up and started to run towards the sound of where I herd the scream.
"Fluttershy!" I yelled out trying to find her.
I saw a light out in the distance, that has to be her. I quickened my pace ignoring the pain. Once I got closer to the light there was a clearing where in the middle stood Fluttershy holding a lantern cowering in fear from a Manticore. It was absolutely massive, it was basically a lion's head and body with Gryphon wings and front talons and a scorpion's tail.
"Hey ugly! Get away from her!" I yelled trying to distract it.
Both Fluttershy and the Manticore looked at me, the Manticore raised its paw and swung its giant talons at Fluttershy. She flew at least ten feet away, knocking her unconscious.
"NO!" I screamed.
I ran over to Fluttershy and looked at her body, she had three huge gashes along her flank and was bleeding badly from them. Luckily she was still breathing but I don't know for how long... I was so mad, this was all my fault, if I hadn't been so selfish when all she was trying to was help me, this would've never happened.
I turned my attention back to the Manticore, it looked as if it was about to pounce on me. I got into a defense position in front of Fluttershy and prepared to fight for our lives. When all of a sudden I felt something appear on my neck, I looked down and saw that it was a gold necklace with a red stone in the middle of it. The stone started to glow a bright red and a red aura covered my whole body. I couldn't feel anymore pain but I could feel the rage inside of me starting to come out.
"Come on big boy, bring it!" I yelled taunting it.
The Manticore tensed up and roared at me trying to intimidate me I guess but I wasn't fazed. I took a huge breath of air and released a roar of my own which was actually louder than the Manticore. The Manticore seemed to whimper at my action and backed away a bit. I ran straight at it in full sprint, the aura around me started to get brighter and brighter. I lunged at the beast tackling it to the ground and pinning it down, it managed to give me a gash across my left foreleg causing it to bleed making me even madder. I released another roar right in its face causing it to cower and whimper some more but I didn't care. I then started punching it square in the face as hard as I could over and over again until it stopped moving.
I got up off of the Manticore and spit on its unconscious body. I turned around and went back to Fluttershy, she was still bleeding, I had no idea how much time she had left so I picked her up gently with my front hooves and placed her on my back as soft as I could. I knew I had to find a hospital or something so I started running at blinding speeds toward Ponyville.
I came out out of the Everfree fairly quickly, must be this strange necklace making me move quicker... As I reached the hospital I burst through the front doors searching for a doctor.
"I need a doctor now! She's been attacked by a Manticore!" I screamed in panic as I felt the blood from the wounds on my coat.
A bunch of nurses began to swarm me coming out of nowhere and placed Fluttershy on a stretcher taking her to the emergency room. More nurses came out and started to get me to go for my gash on my leg. I refused and sat in the waiting room, hoping that she would be okay...
After a few minutes of waiting, I began to calm down and the red aura along with the necklace just disappeared. I took my hoof and placed it where the necklace was, it completely vanished. I was very confused, what was that? I also noticed that even though the necklace was gone, I felt fine except for the small sting coming from the gash. It was bleeding a little, but nothing I couldn't take, I was too concerned for Fluttershy...
