Running through the forest I began to realize how out of shape my body was as I was quickly tiring. "At this rate I'll be back in their clutched by the morning." As I was dodging trees left and right I didn't notice the drop I was approaching. Noticing the ledge at the last second, I slid to a stop knocking a few stones loose. Looking down I saw a rapidly churning river at the bottom, chances of survival slim. Turning around to find another route I began to make my way to walk from the edge before hearing a voice I had come to loathe with a passion. "Where do you think you're going?" "Away from your feathered asses." "Is that so, look around we've got you surrounded. Just give up and your punishment wont be as painful." "Hah, you really expect me to surrender. Well I have one thing to say. SEE YOU IN HELL!" With that said I took a 'leap of faith' into the churning waters below. Relaxing my body and letting myself flow with the current I fell into a dreamless sleep knowing this would be my last... or would it.
"Hey... I... up." "Damn, my head what... Oh shit, you may have recaptured me you winged bastards, but you ain't going to get anything from me, I endured two years of your damn torture I'll do it again!" "Whoa calm yourself, we aren't going to hurt you." Said a female voice. "Yea right, you wont get to me griffon!, although I am intrigued, I've never heard a female griffon before." "Hold up I am not a griffon, I'm a unicorn and-" "A UNICORN, A UNICORN, DID YOU JUST SAY YOU WERE A FUCkING UNICORN BECAUSE I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU ARE THE ONE THAT BROUGHT ME HERE I WILL KILL YOU!" "C-c-c-calm d-down, m-m-my n-name i-i-i-is T-Twilight." "Twilight huh? Well you're lucky, the one who brought me here called herself Trixie and wouldn't stop talking in the third person, gave me such a headache. Anyways I apologize for my outburst, if you had seen and felt the things I have these past two years you would too." Opening my eyes(Which I was to dumb to do in the first place) I saw six ponies in front of me, two unicorns, two pegasi, and two regular ponies. "Names Edward, but you can call me whatever." "okay well I am Twilight, Princess Celestia's faithful student." Spoke a purple unicorn with a magenta streak going through her mane, up next was a white unicorn with a styled purple mane. "You can call me Rarity darling, and I must say what is with those clothes they look absolutely dreadful." "Well if you haven't guessed they are like this because of either, my leap into churning water, either that or my escape from the griffons. Heh good thing I was wearing this or I might've been killed." "Why do you say that darling, are your clothes enchanted with magic?" "No they were actually woven with a strong yet light material called Kevlar that reduces impact damage from weapons." "Wow so your clothes are like some sort of armor correct?" "Well in a way you are correct Twilight my clothes do act as a form of armor but they aren't armor, anyways shall we continue with introductions." "Howdy, Ah'm Applejack nice to meet ya." Said an orange pony with a blond mane pulled back in a 'pony tail'. Up next is the most energetic creature I've ever seen, a pink pony with a puffy pink mane. "Hi I'm Pinkie Pie and..." This one is crazy, I didn't think it possible to speak that fast. When I finished that thought I noticed she was still talking, well that was until a cyan Pegasus with a rainbow colored mane clamped her mouth shut with a hoof. "All right Pinkie I think he's had enough, anyways I'm Rainbow Dash, fastest flier in Equestria." and lastly was a soft yellow Pegasus with a pink mane who spoke barely above a whisper, luckily when you're trapped in a dark dungeon for two years you learn to use your other senses rather well. "I-I'm Fluttershy," "Well now that we've got introductions out of the way, I am pleased to meet you all." "Wait a minute you actually heard her, we all couldn't hear her." said a shocked RD. "Well being trapped in a dungeon for two years does have its perks." A collective "What!" could be heard throughout the room. "Yea I was trapped and tortured by the griffons for two years for information about weaponry from my home they wanted." "And where exactly is your home, if you don't mind me asking." "Well my home is nowhere near here, not even the same planet, possibly dimension." Another collective "What!" and so I began to tell them about Earth and the dangers therein as well ans the many problems of humans and what humans were. "Your race sounds very violent and no offense stupid." "None taken and your right my people ar violent and stupid, although some of us live by a personal set of rules or a creed, would care to listen to mine." A collection of "sure" and "okay" was heard. Clearing my throat I began, "My creed is thus, Never harm an innocent, Protect those in need, Never surrender, and never lose hope." When I finished that an explosion could be heard, quickly running outside I saw a smoke cloud at what appeared to be the center of town. Running into town I saw what appeared to be a small invasion of griffons. Littering the ground were what I presumed to be the town's defense force. Unsheathing my Katana I charged the nearest griffon ending his life with a swift slash. Catching the attention of the other griffons and a few ponies I began to slaughter all the griffons. Being in the open area of Ponyville allowed me more mobility rather than the corridors of the castle. The griffons came at my in waves until after what felt like hours ponies wearing gold armor came in and defeated the rest of the griffons. I was breathing heavily, looking myself over I was bathed in blood, not a single part of me wasn't covered be it the griffons or my own I couldn't tell. Sheathing my Katana I made my way to the trapped ponies. If they were scared before they became terrified when they caught a glimpse of me. Looking around the area I saw the town hall, or at least what was left of it. From the looks of thing the griffons blew it up using gunpowder. As I approached them the bound ponies tried in vain to get away. Drawing my Tanto I began to cut away the ropes while being sure to not cut the ponies by accident. With that I began to make my way out of Ponyville again, but this time I was stopped by a bright light (Sound familiar?). When the light died down Iwas met with the sight of an alabaster pony with a mane that defied the laws of motion and made me feel like I was hallucinating, and beside her was a smaller midnight-blue pony with a mane that resembled the night sky. "Greetings, you must be the one my student told me about, the creature who calls himself Edward. I am Princess Celestia, co-ruler of Equestria, and this is my sister Princess Luna, She rules by my side, anyways I must ask why are you covered in blood and eagle feathers?" "That my dear princess would be the effect of a griffon attack on Ponyville, now if you'll excuse me I shall be taking my leave."With that said I began to make my way past them until they opened up their wings, which was also the time I noticed they also had horns, yea I'm not very observant, backing up I saw they both had serious 'you try that again and it won't end well' faces. "Pardon us but we can't allow you to leave we have no idea if you are working for the griffons." "Listen, I have a searing hatred for griffons, because they one took me from my home, two locked me in a cold cell, and tortured me for TWO FUCKUNG YEARS FOR INFORMATION ON MY HOMES MILITARY WEAPONRY SO THEY COULD USE IT TO KILL ALL OF YOU, SO DON'T YOU EVER SAY THAT I'M WORKING FOR THOSE DAMN BASTARDS!" When I finished that both the princesses had a look of shock, which turned to anger, then to sympathy."Forgive me, it was not my place to accuse you of aiding the griffons, had I have known that sooner I wouldn't have made that claim and for that I apologize." "Apology accepted but next time, be sure you know that person and their motives before making accusations." "Noted, well I would like to ask that you come with us to Canterlot, we would like to get to know you better and..." "Let me cut you off right there Princess, the only thing on my mind is returning to Earth, away from this crazy hole were everything I learned growing up is defied, your manes defy all laws of physics and motion as well as gravity!, though I would like revenge on the griffons, I would much rather be at home." "Earth? Where is this Earth? Is it a new country?" "No Earth is not a country, it is a planet." "Hmm a planet huh, well I am sorry there is no way for us to send you back." "WHAT?! WHAT DO YOU MEAN I CAN'T BE SENT BACK?! HOW IS IT THAT A UNICORN BROUGHT ME HERE BUT AN ALICORN CAN'T?!" "Please calm down, you can't be sent back because we have no Idea where 'Earth' is. The only reason the spell that was used to bring you here worked is because it wasn't used on a specific location, it was used to find something that matched what was wanted nothing more." "Great, just great, oh well, since I can't go home I'll just have to make this place my new home, with that being said, I accept your offer to visit Canterlot." With that said Celestia nodded her head and her horn began to glow, after yet another blinding flash of light I noticed we were in a castle instead of the outskirts of Ponyville. "Welcome to Canterlot castle, Edward." Looking around We were in what I presumed to be the throne room is the large chairs beside each other were anything to go by. The princess looked like she was going to say something until a white stallion with a blonde mane and what looked like a tuxedo top entered. "Aunty I require.. what is that thing that dares to invade our palace, Guards! Remove this creature at once." "Prince Blueblood, Edward here is our guest and you are to treat him with respect." "Why should I this thing obviously is not royalty." "Oh really then I believe I should inform you that I am in fact a prince, a warrior prince." "Ha, don't make me laugh you are not of royal birth, and I shall not treat you with respect." "Okay if that is how you want it Blueballs." "What did you call me?" "Blueballs, that is your name right?" "NO! My name is Blueblood, Prince Blueblood now I demand you apologize this instant!" "Okay whatever you say Blueballs." "My name is not Blueballs." Oh so your name isn't Blueballs?" "Yes." "Oh so it is Blueballs, alright Blueballs." "No." "Oh so it isn't blueballs." "Yes." "But I thought your name was Blueblood." "NO YOU PATHETIC WORM MY NAME IS BLUEBALLS, BLUEBALLS YOU UNDERSTAND." As he finished both of the princesses began to laugh uncontrollably. Realizing what he had just said Blueblood fled from the throne room face red with anger and humiliation. "Ha ha ha, we haven't laughed this much in ages, ha ha, Blueball.. cough* er excuse me Blueblood has never been that humiliated in his entire lifetime! It is obvious that you will be an excellent addition Canterlot."
Hey guy's if you were confused about the skip between my escape and the trapped ponies in Ponyville well that's because me in my infinite wisdom updated Chapter 4 in my files but never updated it to the story (I am such an idiot) anyways sorry about the screw up.
