Like always this is a new chapter. The OC's should be coming in, in this chapter. Well my editor seems to think that "ONTO THE STORY!" has become my catchphrase at the end of the intro… What do you people think? Well like always, ONTO THE STORY!

When I started to wake up I could feel my self being moved. When I opened my eyes I realized why, I was being carried through Ponyville. The second thing I realized was that I was pretty much hogtied. The third thing I realized was, I had one hell of a headache. One more thing I realized was that nobody was doing anything to help me even though they could clearly see me and most were paying attention to what was happening to me. "Uh… Could I possibly get a little help?" I asked quietly to anypony that could hear me. "Quiet you!" The large one said. (That's become a running gag between me and my editor to call Julian (That's the official name I've given him.) The large one. It's a fat joke.) "Well… considering you just foalnapped me I think I have the right to speak…" I responded with poison dripping from my voice. "Aren't you at least going to tell me your name."

"It's Julian." He replied.

"Well Julian… I gotta say I've loved the ride but I'm afraid this is my stop." I said as I rolled off the hooves of the underlings. Than all I had to do was pull off the second part of my plan, which was pretty simple considering I was next to Sugarcube Corner. "HEY PINKIE PIE! JULIAN HERE IS PLANNING A PARTY WITHOUT YOU!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. "HE'S WHAT!" She shouted back almost appearing out of thin air. "Well mister, I don't know who you think you are. But throwing a party with out me! See these balloons on my flank." She said pointing to her flank. "Well this means that I am Ponyville's premiere party planner! And ain't no party's happenin without me knowing about them. Do you understand me?" The black stallion nodded. "Okay." She said gleefully. "So Renwood what's up with the being tied up? OH OH Wait! It's some sort of game isn't it?" She looked at me expectantly waiting for an answer. "Yes it's all a game. You have to untie the person who is tied up and than you and the person who was tied up gather a posse and charge at the person who is it. Who coincidently is Julian here." I said. "Yeah but first you have to count to one thousand." The large one said before picking up Pinkie and throwing her through the large display window of Sugarcube Corner. "PINKIE!" I heard somepony scream. "You leave my fillyfriend alone!" The same voice shouted before what I assume its source was, rammed into Julian. I then heard another voice call out. "OY! Chaosian could ya use a hoof!" I wasn't paying attention to this as I was trying to scoot my way over to the window Pinkie Pie was just thrown through. "Pinkie are you okay!" I shouted in her direction. When I arrived I saw her lying on the ground with several cuts. "Renwood… I don't like this game." She groaned. "I'm sorry Pinkie I didn't know he would do that." I tried to comfort her. "Ren… I hurt all over…" She added.

"I know it hurts Pinkie Pie… but I can't go get help if I'm tied up. Can you untie me so I can go get help." She nodded weakly and untied my hooves. "Thanks Pinkie. I owe you a ton." I then used the rope to tie her to my back and ran to the hospital that was conveniently placed next door. "Take her to where ever she needs to go! I have to take care of the one who did this!" I shouted to the nurse and then ran out the door. "Oy! Ren! Nice of ya to join us!" Shouted the familiar voice of one of my friends from my hometown. "Yeah Yeah! Long time no see Coal." I shouted in return. "And Chaosian your going out with Pinkie Pie? How the heck do you even know her?"

"I just met her today… It just sorta happened." The black colt replied. "So where are the girls…oh and Kash?" I asked Coal as I dodged a ram from one of the underlings. "Well… I know Star is hanging out at the library with this Twilight girl. Blimey… I don't reckon I've seen Turquoise yet… And Kash, well Kash is doing what Kash does." Coal gestured toward a bench where I saw the familiar inkwell on Kash's flank cowering underneath it. "Well it's not that I don't love seeing you and all but go to the library. Go in, in it there should be a baby dragon named Spike. Ask Spike to lead you to Fluttershy's house. When you get there make sure everypony there is safe. Pinkie Pie is in the hospital she should be okay. I will handle the large one." I explained to him and Chaosian, who quickly complied. I then looked at Julian, held up my hooves and said. "Ok. I give up Julian… Just don't hurt anypony else." He grabbed my mane roughly and said. "Fine you stupid colt. But don't expect us to be gentle with you." He then threw me to the ground and stomped onward. I followed them to a chariot that looked like a shack on wheels. As I entered I saw Grenyich sitting on a bench tapping her hoof on the floor impatiently. "Finally… Vhat took you so long?" She asked. As soon as I walked in her expression became one that pretty much went "Oh." But that changed to an expression of shock as soon as Julian joined us. "A colt like him did that to you?" She asked gesturing to me. And quite personally I understand her shock. His muzzle was bleeding he had a black eye and there were several dents and burn marks in his silver armour. Oh did I mention that. The large one and his underlings were all black stallions with silver armour identical to the armour of Princess Celestia's guards. "He had help from two unicorns." He said while spitting a tooth out of the chariot "Grenyich your not going to get away with foalnapping me like this. I have friends who have direct contact with Princess Celestia." I said to Grenyich. My anger almost literally dripping off the words. "Princess Luna is not concerned vith her sister." It was then I decided to go back to sleep since I got woken up pretty early by Grenyich and was exhausted from fighting.

In Canterlot with Princess Luna

Luna was very excited about Renwood coming back. All she had to do was hide him from her sister. "Um… Princess Luna, your majesty…" One of Luna's servant started to say. "Don't you think this is a bit extreme. I mean going to his home and asking him to come here. And then taking him by force if he refuses?"

"You dare question me?" The princess questioned aggressively. "You thi-" She was about to continue when she got cut off by her sister coming into the room. "Luna! Twilight Sparkle has informed me that several of what she described as your guard's broke into one of her friends houses and abducted Renwood! You wouldn't have anything to do with this would you?" Celestia questioned intensely. Luna swallowed a large lump in her throat before answering. "Uh… No what in Equestria would make you think that?"

"Luna…" She said as she walked over and sat next to Luna on her bed. "I know when your lying. Now did you or did you not abduct Renwood?" She asked. Luna sighed and said. "Yes sister I did. But you don't understand I love him." Princess Celestia sighed. "Look Luna you may think you love him now but if you do this you will regret it. Look I know. I've been around for a long time. You think I haven't done the same? But just because you're a princess doesn't mean you can just take everything you want. Anyway Renwood is already dating somepony." Luna sighed as she picked up a piece of parchment.

Back with Renwood

I was shaken awake by Grenyich who said. "Gah… Thanks to Princess Luna's sister you are free to go." With disgust as she crumpled up the piece of parchment she had been holding. I looked out the exit of the chariot and saw we were back in Ponyville and it was night. "Okay. But you tell princess Luna that if she tries this again that I will hate her for life." I said with venom. I limped toward the hospital. When I entered I immediately saw Rainbow Dash who ran up to me and said. "But…I…they…what?" and then slapped me. "Okay I admit I deserved that on-" But got cut off when she slapped me again. "Okay that o-" Another slap. "Now that one was just uncalled for." Rainbow Dash then pulled me into a kiss. "Well that was unexpected."

"The first two slaps were for getting Pinkie Pie and Applejack hurt. The third was for worrying Fluttershy sick. And the kiss was for just being awesome and escaping." I could feel myself start to blush ever so lightly. " I hate to burst your bubble Rainbow Dash… but I didn't escape." Then it was Rainbow Dash's turn to blush. "Oh… well this is awkward. Well if you didn't escape how did you get here?" She asked still blushing. "They just let me go… from what I understand Princess Celestia had something to do with it." I explained. "Oh, well alright. I suppose I can just tell every one you escaped." she looked back and forth as if looking for somepony and said. "But if you tell anypony and I mean anypony that I kissed you you'll be in for a world of pain."

"Don't worry your secret is safe. Anyway what rooms are Pinkie and Applejack in?" I asked. To which she responded. "Applejack is in room 36B. And I think Pinkie Pie is in room 459A... Both are on floor 3. Oh and Renwood…" I turned my head back to look at her and was met by another kiss. "That one was for being cool enough to check on your friends that got hurt before tending to your own injuries." She then walked out of the hospital and took off. I took the elevator to floor three and came across Applejacks room first. As I walked in I was greeted by Apple Bloom. "Oh Ren you escaped! Ah knew ya could do it." She said. I then saw Big MacIntosh and heard him say "Eeyup." The next thing I saw was what really scared me. It was Applejack and she was glaring at me angrily. "AH OUGHTA SLAP YA FER WHAT YA DID TO PINKIE PIE!" She shouted. "Don't worry Applejack, Rainbow Dash met me up front and did that for you. And I just came in here to say,… I'm sorry for getting you hurt. I never should of let you fight my battle." I said apologetically "Well Ren, ya shouldn't apologize ta me. Apologize to Pinkie Pie. She got the brunt of it." I nodded and started to leave the when Applejack stopped me and gestured for me to come over to her. She then pulled me into a kiss. "That's fer swallowin yer pride and apologizin." She explained "But don't ya expect another!" I chuckled as I left the room and a surprised Big Mac behind. I walked for a ways and came upon Pinkie Pie's room. I knocked on the door and was met by Chaosian. "My god Renwood you escaped… I always knew you had it in you."

"Yeah… I'm here to see Pinkie Pie… Privately." I replied. He nodded and walked out the door. "Pinkie Pie… I'm sorry you got hurt. It was my fault. I shouldn't of called you out to fight my battle. I thought you would use your… Pinkie Pie-ness to distract him. I didn't know he would react like that…." I opened my mouth to say more but I got cut off by Pinkie Pie. "Ren… Don't apologize… I should of known that Julian wasn't throwing a party. It's okay I forgive you." She explained with out her usual bounciness. "No Pinkie Pie it isn't okay… Because of me everypony I cared for could of died. I put my little sisters life in danger… That stacked up with my brother dying… I… I just don't know if I can handle it anymore…" Tears started to fall from my eyes. "Pinkie Pie… it's so hard… Knowing that you could of lost the last person in your family who loves you… And knowing that if you did… it would be your fault… not to mention that being stacked on top of knowing that your brother… who raised you like his son died and you could of stopped it from happening…" My crying turned into outright sobbing at this point. "It… it hurts Pinkie… it hurts so bad. Pinkie if I don't make it through the night it's up to you to tell Ditzy, Fluttershy and everypony else why." Pinkie Pie was about to say something else but she never got the chance before I walked out of the room. I limped out of the hospital and out onto the street. I had spent at least a good hour in there. I limped my way across town to Fluttershy's cottage. When I got there I could see Fluttershy lying on her couch crying into a pillow. I walked up to the door and knocked on it. When she opened I saw her eyes widen with surprise and joy. She pulled me into a hug and called Ditzy over. "BIG BROTHER! Your okay!" she cried out when she saw me. "Hey Ditzy… You okay?" She replied with a vigorous nod. I walked into the house and almost immediately pulled Fluttershy aside and into her room. I told her. "Fluttershy it's far too dangerous for me to stay here… not until all of this blows over can I come back and live here with you…" She looked me in the eye and nodded slowly as tears filled her eyes. I lifted her chin and looked her in the eyes and said. "Don't be sad. it's for your safety and my sisters." I then pulled her into a hug and told her. "Never forget that I love you." I let go of her and walked into the bathroom and looked at my self in the mirror. I could see why Fluttershy was surprised when she saw me. I was covered in Pinkie Pie's dried blood from the neck down. Had a black eye, and had a large spot of wet blood on my chest from where I had gone through a field of broken glass to get to Pinkie Pie. I could feel a sharp pain in several spots of my ribcage. I walked out of the bathroom without washing my self to living room. I was about to leave when I collapsed and blacked out. While I was unconscious I dreamt I was in the a white room with my brother. "Brother. Is that really you?" I asked hopefully. "No this isn't actually me. But brother I am here in spirit… All the things you have been feeling was what I felt when mother died. I felt like if I had been there I could of stopped mothers murderer. I felt like it was my fault because I was at a party and I wasn't there… But brother if I have learned anything… It is that it wasn't my fault even if I had been there I couldn't of done anything. If I was I'd probably of been dead before now. And my death is in no way due to you… It would of happened even if you were here. I started the fire in the fireplace… I fell asleep while making sure it had the proper amount of wood on it… It's my fault I died… I sacrificed my self to save our sister…" He explained. "Well that may be but what about how I almost killed Pinkie Pie today?" I countered. "We all make mistakes brother… I know you hated him and he hated you but father was a smart man. It was always him that made me feel better… before he started drinking… that is. But before that after mother died he always comforted me. I'm not good at this… But I will try my best." He said as he pulled me into a tight hug. "Renwood do not blame your self. Blame me. Stop beating yourself up. Live your life like I never got to with mine. Treat yourself as you would treat me." He let go of me. "Now I must brother. Always remember what I've said to you. Take good care of Ditzy…" He said as he faded into white. "NO! Gear! Don't go… I still need you." I cried out.

When I woke up I realized I was in a hospital bed. I looked at the white blanket that was covering me. It had multiple red spots from where my blood soaked through it. I looked at the ceiling for several moments before looking around the room. In the room I saw Fluttershy asleep on a chair along with Rainbow Dash and Twilight. Out of all of them Twilight was the only one who wasn't asleep but she was getting there fast. She looked at me and weakly shook the others. "Girls… he's awake." She yawned. "Twilight I'm fine go get some sleep." I said quietly. She nodded slowly and started to exit the room but decided against it. And just went back to the chair that Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash were sleeping on and joined them. I looked at the clock on the wall. It was 3:32 A.M. And night had long since fallen. I tried to get back to sleep but I just couldn't due to a nagging feeling that somepony was watching me. I opened my eyes and saw Luna standing over me with her head hung in shame. She said quietly. "I'm sorry for what I did. Can you find it in your heart to forgive me?" I answered with a small nod. She walked over and kissed me lightly and then said something almost so quietly that I didn't hear her before leaving. "Thank you. Goodbye Renwood… I love you.

And that's it for this chapter. Longer than the others isn't it? Well I'm not going
