AN: Sorry for the wait on the second chapter (this is my first fanfict by the way) I'm trying to at least make every chapter a minimum of 2,000 words which doesn't take that long but I don't want to just put out a pile of crap so depending on the length and how busy I get the wait may take a few days but I'll at least try to get something together for you guys once a week thank you for reading…Reviews greatly appreciated.
CHAPTER 2
I was surprised when I woke up, I was almost sure I was going to be dead after I blacked out. I kept my eyes closed just using my other senses to get some sort of reading on my surroundings, I could feel a slight discomfort in my right arm on the inside of my elbow, I was laying down on something soft my head was resting against what felt like a pillow, the air smelt familiar but I couldn't put my finger on it, my connection with my demonic powers still felt fuzzy which was starting to frustrate me, after a few minutes without hearing anyone nearby I decided to open my eyes they adjusted instantly to the bright light that reflected off the white walls I was lying in a hospital bed a white sheet covering my body and an I.V was stuck in my right arm my rucksack was lying against the wall on the far side of the room it didn't look like it had been raided through or anything a quick shift of my legs told him that my machete had been removed.
This unnerved me a bit I was confident in my hand to hand combat skills but that would only be effective against small unarmed groups of 3 or 4 I wouldn't be able to do anything against an armed opponent unless I caught them by surprise and I would just get my ass beat if I went against large groups, but I still didn't know if I was in hostile territory or not and longer I laid in the bed the more I doubted I had been captured by an enemy.
I had been a prisoner of war for a few months when I had gotten captured for 3 months by a rival faction as soon as I woke up I was beaten and tortured for hours on end until I passed out only to be awaken and beaten and tortured again…good times. I laughed at my own sarcastic thought I decided to wait until someone came for me, my instincts told me I wasn't in any real danger and they were usually right so I laid back and relaxed for a few minutes until the door to the room opened. "Finally now I can get some answers from somebo-"my words died in my throat as a pony walked in holding a clip board in its mouth with a nurse hat on its head. Okay no that's just ridiculous there is no way that just happened, I closed my eyes and bit my tongue with my fangs until I felt a sharp pain okay now that I'm sure I'm not dreaming I gonna open my eyes again…Nope there's still a fucking white pony with a pink mane holding a clipboard in her mouth looking at me curiously and get this and get this she has a damn ass tattoo of a fucking red cross.
"Well hello there nice to see you're awake the guards were pretty worried about you when they found you passed out in the forest" the pony said taking the clip board out her mouth…I'm guessing it's a girl because of the feminine voice and holding it in one hoof at the foot of my bed. Wait how the hell was she holding a clipboard with a hoof…wait even bigger than that. "You can fucking talk" I blurt out unable to say anything more proper, The nurse pony flinches a bit at my language but nods her head. "All ponies can talk silly my name nurse Redheart I was put in charge of making sure you recovered Mr.…." "Deidrick" I answer pushing my disbelief to the side.
"Well Mr. Deidrick I was pretty worried I must say you're a first for me" Redheart said giving me an intrigued look, "just Deidrick is fine and this is a first for me too never thought I'd be in a hospital getting treated by a pony… man the Demon world must have really gone to shit" I scoff. Redheart's eyes grow wide at my comment and she shakes a bit "y you're a demon" she says shaking "And you're a talking pony what the hell else would I be" I said cracking my stiff neck. "But that's impossible Demons were whipped out 5,000 years ago by the dragons" Redheart say in disbelief, I froze we had been at war with the dragons for centuries but we were always to evenly matched for either side to submit the other and recently there had been peace agreements between my faction and some of the dragon clans I know since I lead all those meetings myself what the hell happened how the hell was I still alive what the fuck was even going on a million questions swirled through my head a minute making me feel slightly dizzy. "So are you telling me I'm the last of my kind" I asked already sure of the answer "Yes at least to my knowledge you're the last demon alive in the entire world" Redheart said looking at me sadly.
At that point I was glad I was a hardened soldier otherwise I would have gone insane but instead I locked everything I just heard into the back of my mind yeah it might not have been the best thing for my long term mental stability but my training told me now was the time to focus on the short term ahead of me not what apparently happened thousands of years ago there would be a time for that but now wasn't it, and I doubted I was going to get much of the information I wanted from a nurse anyway but I at least need to get some basic information, about the new order of the world. "So nurse can you tell me what happened to me and then if you don't mind can you tell me some basic's about the way things currently work" I asked.
"Sure I don't mind I need to check you vitals and give you a full physical since you're awake and since your anatomy is new to me it could take some time" Redheart said walking over to my side. "The guards found you passed out from if you're anything like a unicorn magical overexertion" Redheart said having me sit up. Wait unicorns…magic I can understand looks like I'm gonna have to throw my sense of normal and my past reality out the window if I want to have any hope of adju sting to life here it will make things go a lot faster if I just accept everything this…pony says as truth.
"The spell I used was a simple one it shouldn't have exhausted me so much" I said confused. "That might be true normally but you have been dormant for over 5,000 your connection with your magic will be fuzzy for a week or two and even the simplest spell will exhaust you Princess Luna went through something similar when she returned" Redheart ordered me to take off my shirt, I pulled my long sleeve over my head before pulling my arms out the sleeves…maybe it was just me but nurse Redheart seemed to turn a bit red after I exposed my upper half.
"I guess that makes sense" I said feeling a bit sore as she prodded my chest and arm muscles with her hoof. "Well if that's all it is I guess it could be a lot worse…anyway can you give me a rundown of the way things work around here?" I ask wincing as she prods me in a very sore spot on my sternum she nods and starts giving me all the information I ask for. So for the next ten minutes or so I learn that I'm now in a country called Equestria, where the dominate species are earth ponies, unicorns, and Pegasus, I was currently in a town called Ponyvile I know right I laughed when I heard it too and everything is run on this whole friendship is magic bullshit, the rulers are two sisters that are apparently immortal, and everything is all sunshine and fucking rainbows, seriously I feel like was just thrown into a cartoon for little girls but like I said I'm accepting everything as truth right now.
After she explained to me the basics of what I wanted to know she was almost done with her physical, "Now Deidrick I need you to remove your pants" Redheart asked with a slight blush, seriously this pony just asked me to take off my pants oh well I guess she's kinda cute. I stood up removing me pants my boxers were pulled down as well.
Nurse Redheart eyes went as bigger as dinner plates so yeah have you ever heard the expression hung like a horse well yeah…I hung past my knees and about as thick as my forearm and that was when I wasn't excited.
After a few moments I noticed she was still just staring at it maybe because our size difference pretty much put it right in her face…so anyway I cleared my throat loudly that seemed to snap her back to her senses as she quickly felt down both my legs before hoofing my nuts and telling me to turn and cough which was weird considering she seemed to examine my privates more than the rest of me not like I gave a fuck seriously I guess it's been 5,000 years since I've been with anyone so I might as well enjoy this mares touch even if it's supposed to be strictly medical.
After she was done pretty much fondling me, she told me I was in perfect health you know besides not being able to use my powers for a few weeks, when I asked she told me the guards had taken my machete and if I wanted them back I would need to go fill out release paper work at their headquarters outside of town, and also if I wanted to get more information on this world I should go see someon…somepony named Twilight Sparkle yeah it's gonna take a lot for me to not laugh at these pony's names.
Nurse Redheart leads me out of the hospital after I get dressed and put my rucksack on which feels a hell of a lot lighter than usual honestly I don't even fell like I'm carrying anything actually besides the slight soreness in my body and not being able to use my powers I feel great. For some reason as she walks in front of me she's swaying her somewhat seductively her tail swishing back and forth. Nearly all the ponies we passed on our way to the entrance stopped and stared at me hell I guess if I seen something that was supposed to be dead for 5,000 years I fucking stare at it too.
After I finally got to the front entrance of the hospital, Nurse Redheart telling me she hoped to see me again soon as I left which was odd you would think the hospital would want you to stay healthy oh well at least medical care is free. I decided the first thing I should do is go see this Twilight Sparkle and see what I could get from her since according to nurse Redheart I was in a peaceful town were nothing bad happened I doubted I would need my machete anytime soon I seriously think I could handle a few four foot ponies if they decided to try something.
It was mid-day judging by the position of the sun I would've used my watch but it got fried during whatever happened to me, as I walked through the street much like the hospital everypony that passed me stop and stared some even followed me around as I walked around I did my best not to get annoyed with them if they had now me back in my time they would've know I was not to be trifled with but since my time had long passed I did my best to put on a friendly face there was no need to cause problems when they could be avoided. After I few minutes of walking I realized that I had no idea where I was going I sighed to myself deciding to ask one of the ponies that had been following me where I could find the library.
As I turned to ask there suddenly I loud rumbling sound and a southern girly voice yelled "Look out" I looked to my left seeing a cart full of apples screaming towards me out of control I was going to just doge it at first until I noticed a few fillies behind me if I moved they would get run over. "Fuck" I growled I planted myself digging the soles of my boots deep into the soft ground I pushed my arms forward as the cart crashed into me with enough force to knock the wind out of me and push me back almost ten feet the wheels shattered on impact and I growled as I finally stopped it less than a foot away from the speechless foals. I sat the cart down kneeling coughing as I caught my breath the foals behind jumped on my back hugging me and thanking me, while some of the ponies who had formed a crowd stomped their hooves on the ground in their version of what I'm guessing is applause while a few mares ran forward grabbing the foals who I'm pretty sure where theirs thanking me.
"What are yah crazy for jumpin in front of an outta control cart like that" A pale yellow mare with a red mane tied back with a pink bow came sprinting up to me she had a southern accent of all the ridiculous things, "Well I couldn't exactly let those foals get run over now could I you should be more careful those young ones could've been seriously hurt if I wasn't there" I grunt getting back to my feet "Yeah I'm sorry bout that mah sister always warned me bout going downhill with that cart thanks for that save by the way" the mare offered her hoof to me "No problem sorry about the wheels they kinda shattered when they hit me" I shook her hoof "Yeah you've got one sturdy body there you be perfect for some of tha hard work we got on tha farm if you're interested the pays pretty good and you get all the apples you can eat" Mare gave me a warm smile.
Hmmm so my first day in this new time and I get hit by hard apple cart and then offered a job opportunity which I really need since I doubt my demon money is worth anything in this age and if I wanna feed myself I'm gonna need money. "Sure that sounds good" I reply "He haw names Applebloom pleasure ta meet yah" Applebloom shook my hand harder "Deidrick" I replied grinning at her enthusiasm "Well Deidrick can't never say I've meet one of one of yer kind before" Applebloom looked me up and down "probably cause we were all supposed to have died out 5,000 years ago" I grit my teeth as emotions I don't wanna deal with right now start to surface but I manage to force them back down. Applebloom must've seen my strain because she thankfully doesn't press for more info and instead goes over to look at her now wrecked cart "Well Buck I don't know how Ima gonna get these apples over ta sugar cube corner now" I nearly laughed at the mares language seriously Buck is that what's considered foal language (ha-ha get foal).
"I can help you with that…if you consider me on the clock that is" I kneel down next to her "Sure" Applebloom nods with a grin I reach my hands under the cart using my legs I pick it up off the ground setting it on my chest I adjust my grip so I can place it on my right shoulder the cart weighs close to maybe 200 pounds which isn't light but it's manageable for me once again glad for my demon blood which gave me extra strength. Applebloom looked in awe "sweet Celestia you're strong" Applebloom praised me "Thanks now you're gonna have to take the lead since I have no idea where I'm going" I grunted "Sure thing" Applebloom trotted in front of me happily leading the way.
The other ponies seemed to be more comfortable around me now seeing that I was helping Applebloom which must mean she's well liked, though they still stopped and stared as I walked past. After about 15 minutes of walking we ended up in front of a fucking ginger bread house seriously half of me really wants to try to just eat the damn thing out of principal. Applebloom knocked on the front door and out came an older mare with a light cerulean coat and light pale crimson mane and tail with a paler stripe running through both. "Howdy Mrs. Cake got your order of apples" Applebloom greeted "why thank you Applebloom just put them in the back of the kitchen" Mrs. Cake instructed "Sure thing follow me Deidrick" Applebloom trotted inside Mrs. Cake finally seemed to notice me because her jaw literally hit the ground I wish I had a camera it was like something out of a cartoon. I had to squat down to get the cart through the door. I didn't really look at the interior since at this point my shoulder was starting to get sore and I just wanted to put this damn cart down Applebloom lead me to the kitchen which looked pretty normal considering some of the buildings I've seen in town looked like something out of the middle ages. Applebloom instructed me to pour the apples out of the cart into a large bin that was waiting on the floor I did as I was told as the apples poured out the weight of the cart decreased until it weighed maybe 35 pounds which was nothing but I still switched shoulders so I could rest my worn out one.
After Applebloom got her payment for the apples she started to lead me away from town towards a farm. "Hope you're ready for some hard work sweet apple acres been needing some more muscle for a while now hope you're up to it" Applebloom walked next to me she was a cute little thing probably a couple years younger than me from what I could tell. "As long as the pays as good as you say I'm up for anything" I say with a small yawn, while in my head I think "yay more heavy lifting" sarcastically, But I guess the hard work will help me to keep my mind off my current situation so bring it on Applebloom.
AN: So there's chapter two hope you enjoyed it next chapter I'll start introducing the mane Six and give you some more background info on Deidrick and maybe even a pinkie party with some hard cider sounds like fun to me especially when we get to see how some of the mares react to having a new muscular male around.
