Well, this arc is off to a horrible start so far. Anyway, on with the chapter!

Chapter 2

I suppose anyone would be surprised as i was, waking up to being on FIRE. The flames were covering the majority of my body. I ran as fast as i could, only to trip over a rock and fall down a 3 foot cliff, leading to a roll down a hill covered in rocks, screaming my head off all the while. I eventually landed in a small lake, which quickly reached a boil, and evaporated in a matter of seconds, and i was still on fire. As a last ditch effort, i tried to focus the light from the flame into a single point. This led to fire flowing only around my feet, I then tried to remove it from there by the same way, it didn't work. It just made the flames grow. Oh, its an ether flame. That makes sense.

I created a piece of my metal, in the shape of a small knife, and tried to channel the flames into it. It worked, and the blade turned a bright red. and deformed into an odd shape: the blade seemed to take the shape of flames the hilt grew to form a long handle, like a torch. It also glowed and flickered like a torch does, I think I'll name this later.

Looking down, my surprise grew, as there was no burn from the flames. I began my slow ascent of the lake/hill/cliff I had fallen down, back to where I awoke.

Upon returning to the spot, I found Clare and Ventus unconscious, Clare was on the ground, like me, but Ven was in a tree. I gently woke up Clare by shaking her shoulder, and knocked Ventus out of the tree. He woke up almost immediately, and stopped himself an inch from hitting the ground. He shot me an enraged look, but it quickly faded when he saw the bruises covering my body from the fall down the hill. He tossed me a creme of some sort, and said "It's for bruising." A grin spread across my face.

"I don't need it." I said as I threw the creme back to him. The healing powers that came with light... oh how I love them, when you heal, its like... its like taking all the drugs. By that I mean its more of a pain killer than a healing spell. It does speed up the natural healing process though, so the bruising was gone by the end of five minutes. The look on his face was one of awe, as though I had just grown a third eye, which I could have, considering my past mutations, but I really have no way of knowing, after boiling the nearest reflective surface into nothingness.

"Problem?" I asked, with a cocky tone. An eye roll from Clare, as well as one from Ven gave me the answer: they had no problem. "Good, now, where are we?"

"You really don't know?" Asked Ven, surprise in his eyes.

"Are you going to answer my question?"

Ven sighed, and pointed to his left, saying "Look that way, stupid," the last part being only barely audible.

Ignoring the insult, I looked in the direction he was pointing, and saw Canterlot, and changelings being launched away by a giant, glowing heart shape. Wow, serious deja vu is going on here.

"Hey, didn't this happen a month before we arrived in Equestria or something?" I asked, getting a look from Clare

"Maybe before you arrived, but remember, you were the first." I facepalmed, how did I forget that again?

"Right, well, lets get going. To Canterlot!"

5 minutes later

"Why aren't we flying?" Clare suddenly asked, as we walked to Canterlot.

"Um... Well..." I thought of no good reason, "... I got nothing, let's fly?"

A grin spread across her face "lets fly!"

Near Canterlot Castle: yet another five minutes later

"So, why are we flying to Canterlot again" Clare asked me, clearly bored.

"Its just in case that explosion from when I was training did anything,"

"Oh"

I looked down, and spotted something odd, "Hey, is that what I think it is?"

Ventus and Clare followed my eyes to the ground, and saw what looked like a wedding Ceremony. And a certain Rainbow Mare flying straight upwards, with a cone of light around her. My mouth opened, but before I could speak, I heard Clare shout "I REGRET NOTHING!!"

"Thats MY li-"

*BOOOoOM*

I heard a scream below me, and I saw Ventus falling downward. I went into a dive after him, shouting "Use your power!" but the words were lost on the wind. He seemed to have the same idea anyway, it didn't stop him from falling, but it made the landing a bit less painful looking. I heard two sharp cracks, and more screaming from Ven, who was lying on his stomach when I got down. 'Hmm,' I thought, 'Maybe I should have used my thrusters...'

I walked over, and poked Ven with a stick, saying, "Hey, you OK?" He flipped over and just glared at me, I saw now that his right arm and leg were both broken.

"Well, my limbs are broken, my chest is in immense pain, and I have a MASSIVE headache, any other stupid questions?"

"Hmm... one second." I said, kneeling by him, by this point Clare had landed too, who i then turned too, and said "Hold him down with your power." With a nod, he suddenly was pressed into the dirt. It was time to get to work.

"Now, before I start, I haven't actually tried this before, so please don't blame me if I screw up." Ven's eyes widened at this.

"Now, lets see, First is the bones, I think that I realign this bone like this" I said, feeling his arm, using my light as a painkiller, the moment I started flowing it in, his eyes glazed over, and he began to drool, I was right, it is like drugs. It took me 10 minutes to do what i could, which was reconnect the bone. I waited for my lights effects wore off to tell him

"I've got good news, and bad news, the good news is that it was a success, and your healing up well, the bad news, is that you won't be able to walk until tomorrow."

"Really?"

"Yes, during which time I'll just carry you on my Dark Board. It's not a very difficult process, although we will have to walk... We shouldn't be making it INto Canterlot till late at night (It's currently right after the actual wedding, which was near the end of the afternoon), and thats if we walk with no breaks, however, it would be smarter to camp for the night here, then fly there in the morning." As I spoke, I began to create extremely thin sheets of metal, with small holes in them, and place them in the shape of a makeshift house, but about one room in size, binding them together at the end, all three of us "enchanted" it, so that it wouldn't wound us if any of us wanted to leave it. It was rather heavy, so I also added a door, but made no floor, as it would be more comfortable for them, I also put it over two slabs of rock, which were at the ends of it, and took up about half the floor area, I then walked out, and said "Ok, now, who wants to sleep on rock, and who is on dirt?"

Later that night

I woke up halfway through a dream of a giant hamburger slowly moving through a grocery store, in a way similar to that of a slug, to find that Clare had gotten off of the ground she had decided on, and was now laying next to me. I felt my face burning, she looked so cute when she slept. Five seconds later I noticed it: the drool, it was everywhere, it seemed that only PART of it was mine this time, upon closer inspection of she who was sleeping next to me, I saw it was coming from the corner of her mouth... her perfect mouth...

I moved my head forward, and kissed her on the forehead, and said, "sleep well," At this a small smile appeared on her face. I then let myself fall back into metaphorical darkness, and for the rest of the night, I slept soundly.
