Chapter 5: A Hero Arises

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

A raging fire burns lays waist to a heavily wooded forest, while a metal structure juts out from a still smoldering crater. On top of this stands a familiar (heavily weathered ) hedgehog; holding his left side as fresh blood runs down to his leg. "You bastard! What have you done?" He shouts starling at the figure in front of him. "I did what had to be done, Sonic." A mysterious voice says; it's owner hidden in ever rising black smoke. "This ends today!" Sonic shouts, clenching his teeth as he continues to hold his side.

"Twilight?"

The image leaves the unicorns mind as she's awakened to someone calling her name. Opening her eyes, the pony spots a worried baby dragon standing before her. "Spike?" Twilight moans as she sits up and rubs her eyes with her right foreleg. "What are you doing down here?" The dragons asks, as the pony to shakes the sleep away. "Hun?" She says, blinking a few times while still shaking her head. "Why were you sleeping on the couch?" The purple dragon asks, with a hint of annoyance in his voice. "What?" Twilight squeaks as her eyes shoot open and she begins to look around the room. "You don't..." Spike begins to ask, before the unicorn cuts him off. "Where'd he go?" the lavender pony asks, still looking around the room.

"Where did who...oh you must mean, Sonic." Spike chimes in, causing the pony to snap her head in his direction. "He's making breakfast." The dragon says with a smile. "Breakfast?" Twilight asks as she raises an eyebrow. "Yup." Spike reply's with a pleased nod. "So, I take it you two already met?" The lavender unicorn asks as she rises to a sitting position. "Suppose you could say that. I found him zipping around here this morning, saying that you were letting him 'crash' here and that he was making breakfast as thanks. Right, Sonic!" The dragon says, shouting the last part towards the kitchen. Prompting the blue hedgehog to emerge from the kitchen. "Yo." The hedgehog says as he pokes his head out. Nodding to the dragon and then turning to the now sitting Twilight on the couch.

"Well good morning, sleeping beauty. I was wondering when you were gonna get up." The unicorns blush slightly and rears her head back. "Huh?" "You know, because you were fast asleep like in the story..." The blue hedgehog places his right hand on his forehead and waves the notion off with his left. "Never mind." The unicorn turns to the dragon, prompting him to shrug at the notion. "So uh anyway, whose hungry?" Sonic asks as he returns to the kitchen. "I am!" Spike shouts as he raises his hand up. "Duh, you've been telling me all morning." The hedgehog grunts. The dragon frown at this and crosses his arms. "Violet?" "It's Twilight and we're suppose to be meeting my friends at Sugar Cube Corner at nine, which is..." The unicorn stops mid-sentence and cringes at the clock.

"Which is in about 40 minutes. Plenty of time for a bite and for you to do....whatever it is that you need to do." The blue hedgehog states as he exits the kitchen and sets a covered tray on the table in front of the couch. "Yes, but..." Sonic cuts the unicorn off. "Besides I sent all morning making these." Lifting the cover, the hedgehog reveals several dozen blue berry chocolate chip muffins. "Ooow" The dragon drools as he grabs a few and takes a large bite out of one of them. "Yum!" He cries as tilts his had back.

"You made these?" The lavender pony asks as the levitates one of the muffins in front of her. Sonic frowns at the question. "Of course, what kind of ungrateful guest would I be, if I didn't at least try to do something nice for all you've done." "Uh.." Twilight seems at a lost for words as she stares at the object in front of her. "You should at least try one, Twilight." The purple dragon chimes as he takes a large bite out of another muffin. Repeating the action as before. "Is he going to be OK?" The blue hedgehog asks, raising an eyebrow to the dragons odd display.

"Yeah...he just really likes your cooking i guess." The pony says as she cringes at the dragon actions. "Speaking of which..." Twilight takes a bite from the muffin, still hovering in front of her. "Hey, this are good." She says smiling at the hedgehog beside her. "Told ya." Spike says as he grabs two more off the plate.

"Spike!" The unicorns shouts as the dragon takes a bite from one of his new muffins. "What?" Twilight glares at his and opens her mouth to say something, but is cut off when Sonic plops down beside her. "Relax, theirs plenty." He says taking one of the muffins from the tray. "You should really eat that, while it's still hot." He says motioning towards the half eaten muffin. The unicorn breaks her gaze and takes another bite from the muffin; smiling as she consumes the baked confection. The hedgehog chuckles at this and takes a bite from his own muffin.

------

A few moments later, a sizable dent has been made into the tray of muffins. Though this is mostly thanks to Spike coming back for a few more helpings . Sonic glances at the clock and jabs the unicorns next to him; who is on her third muffin. "Uh Violet, you.." The unicorn glares at this. "It's Twilight!" "Ok Twilight, you might want to start getting ready for your...uh meeting." The unicorn twitches at this and turns towards the clock. "Oh, no." The unicorns says as she darts off the couch and disappears into another room; leaving the half eaten muffin on the table. "Uh, the bathroom is that away." The blue hedgehog says, pointing towards the other side of the room. "Right!" The lavender pony exits from the room, with a few levitating objects around her.

"Uh, OK then." The blue hedgehog says as he grabs a muffin off the table and takes a bite. "Wait..." Twilight pops out the bathroom, back towards the other room. "I almost forgot...gah!" She stops dead in her tracks as she notices Sonic eating her muffin. "Oh, sorry. I didn't realize it was yours, until I...uh took a bite." The hedgehogs says as he sets the muffin back on the table. "That...was mine...and then you..." The dragon cuts the unicorn off. "Indirect kiss." Spike chimes as he grabs two more muffin off the tray. "Oh come on, what is this kindergarten. Sonic rears back and holds his hands up in response. "Go now, do your thing...shoo!" The blue hedgehog says motioning the pony to move.

"T-that's not it!" Twilight says as she stomps her forelegs. "I was eating it...then you ate it and now.." Sonic holds up his hand, silencing the fumbling pony. "Oh, I get it. You just don't like eating off of something someone else did." The unicorn nods. "Oh, my bad, sorry about that." The hedgehog notion the pony to move, which results in another nod; followed by a hasty exit.

------

As the unicorn prepares for the day, Sonic and Spike clean up the kitchen and place the remaining muffins in a small wicker basket in the table. Returning everything to the way they found it. Finishing just a certain lavender mare enters the room. "Hey guys. "What'cha doing?" "Just picking up." The blue hedgehog says as he places something in the cupboards. "By chance, are there any of those muffins left?" The unicorn shyly asks. "A bunch actually." The hedgehog says motioning towards the basket. "Ooow, Goodie!" Twilight lets out a squeak, as she claps her forelegs together and gallops towards the container."Uh, I mean great, I shall enjoy them later." Sonic holds his hand to his mouth trying not to laugh; earning a glare form the unicorn. "I'm sorry *snicker* it's so...pppffffttt! Baahahaha!" The blue hedgehog loses his composer and burst into a fit of laughter. Much to the lavender pony's annoyance.


"So, uh you ready to go?" The hedgehog asks as he wipes a tear away and walks past the unicorn. "Yeah, pretty much." The pony says as she turns to follow. Sonic abruptly stops and causing Twilight to bump into him. "Oh, i almost forgot. Do you know of a good seamstress? I kinda need stuff patched up." The blue hedgehog says twiddling his fingerless gloves. The unicorn trots to the Sonic's side. "My friend Rarity is familiar in that." "Pfft! Familiar!" A voice says from behind. "She's a master with the needle, an artists." A Spike chimes as he walks past the two. "Not to mention, she's one of the prettiest ponies you'll ever meet.." The dragon continues to boast about the unicorn seamstress. "So. This uh Rarity can help?" The hedgehog asks, giving the dragon a funny look. "I'm sure she will. That pony loves a challenge." The lavender pony says with a smug look. "Wait is this that pony with the ice cream swirl hair do?" The unicorn snickers at this."That's not nice." Twilight says as she holds her hoof to her mouth.

------

Sonic and Twilight leave the library destined for Sugar Cube Corner. Leaving Spike behind to 'guard the muffins' as he put it. Resulting in Twilight traveling alone with Sonic. Which earns the group a few odd looks as they walk down the street. "So uh, are you getting adjusted to how we do things here?" The lavender unicorn asks, breaking the awkward silence. "Well I wouldn't say 'adjusted'. He says using finger quotes. "But I've been able to wrap my mind around this at least." "Oh?" The pony hums tilting her head. "Yeah, I went for a run when i got up and you won't guess what i saw....ponies. Nothing but ponies, as far as the eye can see." "How far did you go?" Twilight asks, frowning at the statement. "I dunno, some place called Mainhattan i think." Sonic says as he scratches the back of his head. "That's impossible, no pony can run that far and back. In one day." The unicorn says with a bewilder look on her face. "Well maybe that's because I'm not a pony." The hedgehog states turning back towards the unicorn. "Hm, touché, Sonic." The mare says rubbing her chin with her hoof.

"Hey, Twilight!" A voice says from above, causing the two to look up only to see sky. The unicorn and hedgehog turn to each other and shrug. "I'm over hear!" The voice says again. The two turn towards the source and see a cyan pegasus standing in front of them. "Slow as ever, Twilight." The unicorn rolls her eyes at this. The cyan pegasus then turns to Sonic. "Hey, you're alright." The blue hedgehog chuckles at this."Or course, you honestly think a little something like that, would take that would take me out?" He finished flashing his trademark grin. Rainbow Dash smiles at this and lets out a small chuckle. "Didn't think so. Still, I was worried when you collapsed like that." Sonic raises an eyebrow. "Oh, you were worried about me?" "Of course I was!" The cyan pony snaps. "You just fell over and..didn't wake up..." "Relax Skittles, I'm fine. How about you?" The hedgehog says as he places his hand on the pegasus's shoulder. The pony perks up at the question. "Oh, i'm good. Thanks to you, all I managed to get were a few sore ribs." Sonic lets out a nervous laugh as he scratches the back of his head. "Yeah, uh sorry about that."

"Bah!" The pony says as she bats the air with one of her forelegs. "Considering the alternative, I'm not going to complain about a few ruffled feathers." The hedgehog gives the pegasus a thumbs up in response. "Glade to hear it, I was worried you ponies were made of glass or something." The two mares glare at the hedgehog in response, till he crosses his arms and gives them both a wink. "Oh ho, you were just kidding." The cyan pony chimes. "But more importantly, why Skittles" Sonic shrugs at this. "Dunno, it was the first thing that came to mind." The lavender unicorn tilts her head at this. "Why, what are they?" The hedgehog raises his eyebrow in response. "You two have never herd of them?" The two ponies shake there heads. "Does 'taste the rainbow,' ring any bells?" The two shake there heads as this aw well.

"No, but i like it!" Rainbow Dash shouts. "Taste the rainbow, yah!" She shouts again, bucking the air behind her, causing the unicorn to roll her eyes at this. "So anyway, is every other pony here?" Twilight asks, as she tries to change the subject. "Everyone else is inside,we're just waiting on you and..." The pegasus is cut off as something darts past them. Causing the two ponies to dart in opposite directions, while Sonic back flipped out of the way."What was that?" The cyan pony asks as she looks around. Twilight shrugs and turns to Sonic. "I think it was something...Gah!" The hedgehog is cut off as something smashes into him knocking him to the ground. The two ponies blink at each other for a minute then turn towards the direction where Sonic flew. "AH! GET IT OFF! GET IT OFF! AH! IT'S BITING ME." The blue hedgehog shouts as he's smothered by something pink and fluffy.


------

"Pinkey Pie, get off him!" The Twilight shouts as she charges towards the pink pony with Rainbow Dash following behind her. "Alright, alright! You can have my jelly bean collection. Just get off of me." Pinkie Pie's head shoots up at this. "You have a collection of...jelly beans? Oow!" "No." Sonic flatly responses. "I just wanted you to stop, trying to suffocate me." "suffro-what?" The pink pony says raising an eyebrow. "No silly, I was just showing you how thankful i am that you saved my bestests friend Dashie!" She shouts as she goes back to snuggling the hedgehog.

The two mares trot towards the two each baring a pained expression. "Is this how you guys say thanks around here?" Sonic shouts as he tried to push the pink pony off of him. "What? No!" Twilight shouts her face turns bright red. "Pinkie, is just a bit enthusiastic when it comes to...everything." Rainbow Dash adds as she scratches the back of her head with her hoof. "I see, well then." Sonic says as he shoves the pink pony off of him and jumps to his feet. "If you wanted to show your gratitude, you could have just said thanks or something." The hedgehog shrugs as he dusts himself off.

The pink mare springs to her hooves. "Okey dokey, lets try this again." "Ok, Just don't spear me again." The blue hedgehog adds as he runs a hand through his quills. The pink pony takes a few steps towards the hedgehog, wraps her forelegs around him, and holds Sonic in a tight embrace. "Ok, this isn't so bad, it's actually kinda...GAH!" His words are cut off as he's tightly squeezed by the pink party pony. "Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you!" Sonic pats the pony's head with his hand, in an attempt to loosen her death grip. "It's fine...I'm glad.." He gasps for air.".....I could help." The hedgehog's feet are lifted off of the ground as Pinkey tightens her grip. "Having trouble breathing here." He adds as his last breath is squeezed from his lungs.

"OK, that's enough Pinkie. You need to let him go." Twilight says after witnessing the whole display. "Yeah,besides, if anyone should be thanking him it's me." Rainbow Dash adds as she holds up a hoof to stop the Pinkie's vice grip. "Then you can thank him after me!" Pinkey chirps still holding Sonic. "Yay!" An unenthusiastic hedgehog says. "By the way, you smell like Twilight. Why do you smell like Twilight?" The pink pony asks as she releases the hedgehog. "Well you see, I kinda borrowed some of her shampoo this morning. The unicorns shoots Sonic an odd look. "Hey that's all there was, I didn't have much of a choice. Beside considering the alternative, it's actually not so bad. It's not very overpowering or anything." The three ponies shrug at this.

"OK, now that every ponies here. Let's head inside." The pink mare springs as she heads towards the bakery, followed by the other two ponies and a reluctant Sonic.

Three small fillies are seem venturing around the outskirts of the Ever Free forest.

"C'mon, I think it's over here." A small yellow earth pony says as she steps off a gravel path. "You sure, we've been looking for almost an hour." A small orange pegasus asks as she follows close behind. "Positive, I think it's right over ther'" The yellow pony adds as she notions towards a patch of trees. "Uh, are you sure this is a good idea. I mean, we're not suppose to be here." A small white unicorn asks, as she cowers next to the pegasus.

"Sweetie Belle, you're not scared are you?" The orange pony asks, shooting her a sly look. "O-of course not. I'm just worried about you guys." The white unicorn stutters as she nervously looks around. "Right!" The pegasus says as she rolls her eyes. "Enough you two!" The yellow earth pony shouts. "We ain't gonna get out cutie marks, if we keep fighting with each other." The pony adds as she continues her search. "Apple Bloom is right, we shouldn't be fighting. I'm sorry, Sweetie Bell." The orange Pegasus says as she hold out a hoof. "It's alright, Scootaloo. The white unicorn reply's as she bumps her hoof with the orange pony.

Hey girls, over here! Apple Bloom shouts from a few yard away. The two chase after her and meet up a few feet from a cluster of trees. "What did you find?" Sweetie Bell asks as she takes a few short gasps. "Did you find it?" Scootaloo asks as she takes a few steps forward. "I think it's right over..." The yellow pony stops mid sentence as she walks on ahead. "What, what is it?" The pegasus impatiently reply's as she joins the earth pony. With the white unicorn following right behind her.

"Golly, what could have caused this." Apple Bloom statesas she stares in aw at the 'path' cutting through the forests."Whoa!" Scootaloo says as she glances at what's before her. "I-I think we should, leave." Sweetie Belle adds as she squats towards the ground. "There's nothing to worry ....about." Apple Bloom cuts herself off mid sentence as she turns towards the white unicorn and lets out a squeak. "Why did you..." Scootaloo, does the same as she turns towards Sweetie Belle. "What? Whats wrong, why did you both stop like that?" A confused unicorn asks, causing the orange pegasus to notion her to turn around. "If this is some sort of trick then i'm..." The Sweetie Belle turns around and stops mid sentence as she comes face to face with a timber wolf. "Oh, that's why." She says as she turns back towards the two ponies. "RUN!" The pony shouts as she starts running forward.

Six ponies, plus one hedgehog. Sit at a large circular table, in the middle of the modestly sized bakery. With Rainbow Dash on Sonic's Right, Twilight on his left, Rarity next to Twilight, Pinkey next to Rainbow Dash, with Applejack and Fluttershy between the two; across from the blue hedgehog.

"So then I said, lets turn that frowny upside downie." The pink mare boasts as she plants her hooves on the table. "Hm I see, very interesting." The hedgehog says from behind a menu. "You were able to follow that?" Twilight whispers as she leans towards him. "Not a word." Sonic states as he closes the menu and sets it down. "So anyway, as I was saying before i got interrupted." Rainbow Dash says as she glares at Pinkey Pie. "That we should get the whole story first, before we decide on anything." The mare concludes as she turns to the other ponies. "Dash, I no longer hold any grudge against this blue feller here, in fact. Applejack trails off as she removes her hat. "I'm really sorry for treating you so poorly back ther'" She finishes as she looks down at the table. "No biggie, don't worry about it." Sonic says as he waves off the notion. "No big deal? Of course it's a big deal. If not for Twilight, I would have left you...like that out in the rain." The orange pony adds as she slams her hooves on the table. "And considering all that happened, I don't blame you, really." The hedgehog says as he leans back in the chair.

"Still, i feel mighty awful about it." The pony concludes as she looks down at the table. "As do I." Rarity adds. "I was with Applejack, on the decision to leave you. It was most unbecoming of me and I too would like to analogize for what I ...almost did." The white unicorn says as she bows her head. Sonic opens his mouth to reply, but is interrupted by the other ponies before him. "I'm sorry too, Spiky.The pink mare states as she joins her friends at staring at the table. "Me too." Rainbow Dash states as she places her right foreleg on the hedgehog's shoulder. "Yes, uh me three." Fluttershy adds as she sinks into her chair. "It's fine really." Sonic states as he hold his hands up. "The fact that you guys..er girls...ponies, didn't stay dead set on what happened before is enough and also." The hedgehog says as he turns to Fluttershy. "Why are you sorry? If anything I should be thanking you." "Well you see..."

The shy pony is cut off as a loud crashing noise is heard from outside. Followed by a loud scream. Sonic darts outside, followed by the six ponies. To investigate the noise, only to see three very frightened Cutie Mark Crusaders running into town with a timber wolf hot on there tail. "Oh my." Futtershy says as she covers her mouth. "Sweetie Belle" Rarity adds. "Apple Bloom." Applejack says as she starts heading towards the three, only to be stopped by the sudden gust of wind left by a certain blue hedgehog. "What the hay?" The pony says as she hold down her stetson.

------

As the timber wolf closes in on the three fillies, a blue streak leaps over the small ponies and charges for the creature's chest. Causing it to explode as it makes impact, sending twigs, branches, and other assorted pieces off 'timber' scattering in every direction. A bewildered hedgehog skids to a stop and looks around. "Too easy! There's no way that can be it" he says turning to the three crusaders."Is it?" "T-turn around." A frightened Scootaloo, shudders out as she notions to something behind Sonic. The hedgehog turns around and notices a small pack of timber wolves closing in. The blue hedgehog smiles at this. "Aw Yeah, This is Happening!" He shouts as he charges towards the new arrivals.

Next Time:

Sonic: BOOM SHAKA LAKA!!!

Applejack: "This fellers' nuts."

Rarity: "Amazing!"

Twilight: "He really is fast."

Rainbow Dash: "We have to go back."

Pinkey Pie: "Wha-hoo!"
