Hello! Today we have some OC's in the mix! I will give credit for each OC at the end of each story. Thanks for reading!
Twilight had finally slowed down to a trot by the time Star had caught up to her. They were back in town, and the sudden rush of noise and activity was in great contrast to the peaceful little farm they had just visited. Still struggling to catch his breath, Star followed behind Twilight. Twisting between booths and shops, Twilight made her way to a dress shop. Stopping short, Twilight spoke.
"My friend Rarity owns this store. I'm sure that she will be able to make you some armor or something. At least I hope..."
Twilight nudged the door open and a little bell twinkled. The inside of the shop was a light purple, and cloths and sheets of fabric were hanging everywhere. Hardly knowing what to think of the place, Star just kept his mouth shut.
"Rarity!" Twilight called out.
"Just a minute!" Called back another voice, this one sounding lighter, and more refined.
From behind a golden swath of fabric appeared the owner of the voice.
"Oh my!" The pony exclaimed.
"It's that thing from the town square!"
"Really Rarity? You too? I thought you of all people would know not to judge people by their appearance." Twilight scolded.
"Oh. Well, yes. Quite. How might I help you Twilight?"
Rarity adjusted the red glasses that were perched on her nose. Was she nervous? Was everyone here really scared of him?
"Well Rarity, Star here is going to fight Kaos, as I'm sure you know. But he needs a little help before he can face him. So I was wondering if you might be able to make him a suit of armor perhaps?"
Rarity stared.
"A suit of armor. For a human. To wear. To fight Kaos and possibly save all of Equestria?" Rarity asked.
"Well..yeah." Twilight replied.
"YESYESYESYESYESYESYES! A thousand times yes! Oh this will be sooooo different from what I normally do! A challenge! And me, a simple pony."
A strip of measuring tape appeared almost out of nowhere. Rarity started humming and measuring him, checking his lengths and widths.
"Hmmm. Yes. I see." Rarity mumbled to herself.
"And what did you want it made out of?" She asked
"Well, I guess whatever you have that is light, strong, and easy to move around in." Twilgiht said.
"Ok… I see… Well, I should have it ready in three days. Stop by then to pick it up."
Rarity came up to Star and held out her hoof.
"It was an honor to make your acquaintance Star. I look forward to making your armor."
Star shook her hoof, unsure of what to say back. He just smiled and nodded, and that seemed to work. Rarity headed back behind her golden curtain and the sounds of a pencil sketching out a design could be heard. Twilight left the store and Star followed. Stepping into the street again, Star could see the entrance into town. And in the distance, he could see plumes of smoke rising of where he guessed Canterlot would be. What a horrible thing to have happen. Then, something caught his eye. On the road into town was 3 ponies. One had a green coat, and was bigger than the others. The other two were blue and dark blue. The green one was badly injured. His right wing was bleeding badly, and a makeshift bandage had been wrapped around it to stop the bleeding, but it apparently hadn't worked. The two other ponies seemed to be supporting the green one. How awful! Rushing over to the trio, Star immediately picked up the green one.
"He's badly injured! Quick, Twilight! Over here!"
Twilight rushed over and saw what was going on.
"Quickly! The hospital is over here!"
Still carrying the injured pony, Star rushed to the hospital, the two blue ponies following behind him. Rushing inside and placing him on the nearest table, Star called over the nurses. The nurses took one look at the green pony and started wheeling him away. Another nurse pony approached him.
"We are moving him to the E.R. He has lost a lot of blood, and we are worried about his wing. Thank you for bringing him here. If you hadn't of gotten him here when you did, we would be dead. As it is, there is a chance he still might… not make it. But we will be monitoring him."
The nurse ran down the corridor. Star sat down on the floor, next to the two blue ponies.
"Excuse me.. Sir?" One of the blue ponies spoke.
"Thank you for helping our brother… We really appreciate it. He is all we have left…"
Star looked the two of them in the eye.
"It was the least I could do. I always look out for others. But what happened to him?" Star asked.
The two ponies glanced at each other.
"I'm Wildfire." Said one. "And I'm Dynamite" Said the other.
"The one you rescued was Golden Lightning. He's our brother. We were in Canterlot when Kaos showed up. Golden Lightning was on guard duty at the time. When the fighting began, both of us wanted to help. We wanted to finally do something with our lives! But it ended up getting Golden Lightning hurt. You see, we ended up trapped by one of Kaos's goons. Awful red fiery creatures with no eyes or ears or anything! But this thing had us cornered when Golden Lightning came in and bought us time. He told us to run away and that he… he would hold it off. So we ran and ran until we were very far away. And after all the fighting stopped we found him bleeding and knocked out, with that creature dead next to him. So we picked him up and carried him all the way here, hoping someone could help us… It's…all our faults…"
Both ponies began to cry. Star put his arms around them.
"Listen to me. It wasn't your fault! It was Kaos's! Don't be mad at yourself for something like this. And your brother is going to be fine. He just needs to rest for a while and…build up his strength."
"Really?" They both asked.
"Yeah. Don't sweat it."
The three of them sat there for a bit until Twilight came in.
"Star, I need to talk to you in here for a sec."
Star followed her into the other room.
"The doctor says that that pony won't make it. He has lost to much blood. Unless we can find a donor, he will die."
Star stood there thinking. He thought of the two ponies in the hall, and how they thought that their brother was going to make it.
"I'll do it." He said.
Drama! Yeah!
