#3

The princesses both stared at me with stern faces: at first, I wanted to go up and say "hi" and introduce myself, but now I'm more worried about what the princesses might do to me since their horns began to glow with an aura. I quickly placed my hands up, but maybe that wasn't the smartest choice since I quickly felt my body lock in place.

"what the…hell!" I yelled out as I tried to move my body. "I can't…move…damn it!"

"Princess Celestia, Luna, what are you doing!?" Yelled out Twilight, but it was no use as they didn't stop their power.

I began to feel anger fill the mind as I was slammed to the ground by the magical force. "Damn it, I just wanted to talk, and this is what I get, fuck that!" I whispered out

"STOP IT!" Yelled Dash, trying to stop the princesses, but she was unable to do anything. Applejack and Rarity both to shocked to speak stood close to Twilight, and Flutter Shy hid behind the couch.

"WHAT DID I DO WRONG!" I shouted out as I slowly lift myself to my feet going against their magic.

"how is he…?" said Luna as she applied more power to her magic.

"I don't know, but keep up, we can't let him hurt anyone!" said Celestia as she also gave in more power.

"ARE YOU LISTENING TO M…."

A loud clash was herd an I flew back onto the wall so hard that the wall behind me cracked. I felt my body loosely fall to the floor, and my sword fall out of its holster and onto the floor spinning to the center of the room.

Everything was quiet for a few moments, nothing was herd, until…

"WHAT HAPPENED, WHY…WHY…WHY!?" Yelled out Twilight, and Dash, while Rarity and Applejack still completely speechless, and flutter shy was crying behind the couch.

Celestia and Luna looked around and then looked at each other briefly, "Twilight you did know what you where housing, right?" Asked Celestia.

"NO! but you didn't have to kill him!" Twilight began to say as she began whimpering. And Dash stared at the sword on the floor, with fear trembling all over her as she picked it up.

Luna look at Twilight and back at my motionless body, "Twilight, that is a demon, he would have killed you at any moment, couldn't you feel all that evil aura radiating from him?"

"No…he…I DON'T KNOW ANYMORE!" yelled out Twilight as she fully burst in to tears as so did everyone else except Dash, and the princesses.

"He…wasn't evil…HE SAVED ME AND OUR FRIENDS FROM TIMBER WOLVES, AND TRIED TO HELP ME WHEN I WAS INJURED, HE WAS OUR FRIEND!" shouted Dash causing the princesses to flinch as she put the sword down on the ground.

I quickly felt my feeling turmoil inside me.

Ponies, Violence, Equestria in danger because of me, DEMON, FRIENDS, FRIEND!

I quickly opened my eyes and picked my sword up and placed the tip under Celestia's throat, in a split second. Gasps were heard as they saw that I wasn't dead and the tables have turned. I stared into Celestia eyes with no mercy in my eyes and mind. She looked back at my eyes with fear all over. Luna and the others stared at my scene. I stood straight and didn't move, I felt more magic upon me, but it had no effect. I quickly reached into my vest and pulled out a bowie knife, and placed it under Luna's throat. My actions had been so fast that they couldn't react. I could hear them breathing slowly, and the trembling of the other ponies. I could tell that blood was running down my face, and that I was probably drenched in it. I opened my mouth to speak.

"Now look…I'm a nice guy so I won't hurt you any more than your reputation as princesses, in other words I'm forgiving you for your actions, consider this your second chance. Don't try anything…ok" I said as I sighed and lowered my weapons, I place my knife in in the vest, and placed my sword in the holster.

I looked at the ponies around me, and noticed their fearful and terrified faces, and then I face palmed myself.

"Shit, I'm so sorry Twilight for all this, for everything I don't know what got into me sorry!" I quickly explaining. The princesses looked at each other and then at me as I rounded up the ponies and practically begged for forgiveness. Once I calmed everyone down I washed my face with a wet towel that Twilight handed me.

"Are you really a demon, Ben?" asked Twilight as I sat down next to them on the floor. I pondered the question, and answered as honestly as I could.

"Metaphorically yea I could be, but physically, no I'm not." I stated as I looked the princesses which had not broken any eye contact since that scene I caused. "I'm human, and a badass one to I must say"

Dash smiled a little at that little joke, but a negative atmosphere had formed in Twilight's home, and possibly because of me.

"Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna, what was up with the both of you earlier. You called me a demon, and that an evil aura radiated from me?" I asked the princesses as they joined us on the floor.

"Pardon us for our rude and violent act against you, we don't know to make this up to you, please forgive us."

"I already forgave the both of you, but can you please explain what you meant by demon, and evil aura" I repeated to try to understand why they attacked me, or what the hell they meant.

Celestia turned to Luna and Luna replied with a nod, then Celestia looked at me and began to explain herself.

"when we arrived at here we immediately felt the strong feeling of an evil pressure form around an object in the room, the we noticed the color of the aura that circulated you, and recognized it of that of a demon's. As we speak we can feel that aura, and it disturbs us, me and my sister that is."

I looked at myself for a moment, then to the five ponies to my right, and then to the princesses. My expression became gloomy and I couldn't seem to get rid of it.

"I'm sorry, but I do believe I know what's causing this aura." I said breaking the silence. They all looked at me with wide-eyes, and I felt my heart sink, and the same lump from the clinic form in throat again. I took off my vest, sword, and boots, and took out everything in my pants to expose a large number of weapons and one pistol. They all curiously looked as I pulled weapons out of everyplace on my clothes.

"Ben…what's all this?" Asked Twilight with a worried expression on her face. I looked at her and sighed, as I placed my hands on the pile of weapons.

"I lied to you about being a good human, I'm actually…" I hesitated for a moment, but I had to let it out if I could have any chance at making everything right.

"A murderer"

They a gasped and looked at me with shocked expressions, the princesses were surprised as well, even though they knew about my evil aura.

"But you seem so peaceful in front of us, and you helped Dash when she was hurt" responded Flutter shy saying something finally. Her saying that made me feel like a I was still welcomed. I smiled at her, but it faded when Twilight questioned my past. I looked her in the eyes and nodded.

"Ok, I'll talk, but it's not a happy story" I warned, but they all seemed more than eager to hear out my story.

"When I was young, at around 11 years of age, I was forced into military training due to a shortage in soldiers, so I was sent to a camp, and force to train hard for four years. At the end of the four years, I was sent off to living life peacefully, but never got there, since a war broke out against terrorists and the country I was in. I was sent in as an OPS soldier to infiltrate. The war lasted six years, and during that time, the blood of thousands of people stains my name and this sword, even the blood of innocents, mostly children."

They all look at each other in disbelief, and I buried my face in my hands, I wouldn't cry, but the things I'm saying are shameful beyond belief. I looked up and continued.

"Then I returned home, but I was hunted by the actions I took in that war. I never made friends and my parents died while I was away. Then…then…" I paused and quickly felt my chest.

My eyes widened as I quickly took off my shirt and began to look at the area where my heart is, only to see that there was what appeared a small scar, about 1 inch long. I looked up at them, they all seemed to blush at my action, but were still worried.

"Then I died"

"WHAT!" They all yelled in unison.

"I got shot, by a someone outside my home!" my body felt incredibly tense as I began to ponder what was going on. I put my shirt back on and stepped outside quickly. My breath was far from reach and I fell to the ground motionless with my back against the tree/home. My vision started to become blurry and my head felt heavy, I was slowly becoming more and more weak, my breathing turned into quicker and shorter intakes of air.

"Ben…Ben are you alright" I heard a voice call out, but that only made my mind even more numb, I couldn't hold it anymore, everything was so meaningless by now, I slowly began to lose it, until…

"BEN!"

"Is he alright?"

"I don't know"

(Worried Chatter)

"What the hell happened?" I asked as I began to pick myself up from the hard ground I was placed on. I opened my eyes to find that I was back in Twilight's home, its back to its clean state. I looked at my hands and at my vest and boots which were on me again, and around me to find out that everyone was here even Pinkie Pie, had come back.

"Your awake, good, you gave us all quite a scare"

I looked to my left and noticed Celestia, using her magic on me, and then looked at the rest.

"What are you doing?" I asked Celestia as she began to manipulate my face with her magic.

"Just healing you enough for you to get back up, and I also got rid of that horrible head ache you had" she answered back in that motherly tone from earlier.

"heh…really? Thanks, I really needed that" I responded cheerfully. "you see, speaking about past events isn't easy"

"especially yours" she replied. "all done, I did it to the best of my ability"

"Wow, thanks I feel like I was never hurt in the first place"

I stood up and stretched a little, this seemed to have a positive effect as I noticed every one of the ponies started at me even the princesses. I smiled and decided to play along.

"Am I just that good looking, you all can't help but stare?"

Everypony quickly looked away, I could tell they were blushing, but I stopped and told them I was just playing around. They all seem to give me a look of are you serious?

"Ben, we all just wanted to say how sorry we forced that out of you, but in all honesty, we will always see you as a friend of ours, we promise" stated Twilight with a smile, and her friends agreed giving me a heartwarming feeling that made me feel so loved and actually accepted.

"Ben, we also promise to be your friends, no matter your past, or your mistakes, you will always be seen as invaluable member of Equestria." Both the princesses remarked. By now my smile was stretching across my face to the point it hurt.

"Wow, I've never really had any friends, so will be a new experience" I said to them nearly to the point of bursting out in an insane amount of joy.

"wait a minute" I said in all my mental rejoicing.

"If I died, why am I here?" I asked, but still rejoicing internally

The princesses look at each other then back at me with a more depressing look. Luna moved to face me straight although I still had to squat to get to eye level with her. She sighed and looked me straight in the eyes and said.

"You somehow managed to break through your worlds realm and entered ours, but upon doing so our world is now immune to letting others like you in, meaning you're the last of your kind" Luna stated as see look down to the floor. I wondered about the idea of a new life, and being the only one of my kind to exist. I could see that Luna was depressed at the thought of this. I quickly embraced her in a hug, I could tell she was surprised but there was no other way to convey how happy I felt.

I kept her embraced, she was soft and warm, I wanted to say one last thing before I let go, "I don't care if I'm the only human here, I just care about now and my new friends, I've never had friends but I'm sure that I'll love it here, thank you for being my friend Luna."

I let her go she blushed heavily as she replied with "your welcome" with a smile. I thanked everyone else, and stood up, and placed my hand in a fist over my heart, and spoke…

"From this day on, I promise to protect my friends and to never leave their side, to enjoy their company and cherish them. Thank you all again"

Celestia looked at me with a smile and moved herself to me, and placed her hoof on my side.

"Ben...welcome to Equestria!"
