Love of Darkness
Chapter 4: Hell of a beating
Previous Chapter Next ChapterIt was around noon when Ezio woke up to see the lovely Rainbow Dash laying on his chest using it as a pillow. She was obviously up because her eyes were wide open and Saw 4 was playing on her T.V. She dug her face into Ezio's arm if she saw any part that was filled with gore (she completely skipped the‘Save As I Save’ because the rods sicken her). “If you're just going to keep your head between my arms when you see a lot of blood, then I would suggest you keep it there.” Ezio said as she slowly and carefully moved her head and eyes toward him as not to see the reason the man screaming in pain.
"Oh yea. You've seen this movie before?” Rainbow Dash said cocking her head at Ezio.
"Between one and seven on opening night and the DVDs at least sixty-two times before the fire.” Ezio finally saying something about the fire and not let a single tear fall.
"You got something on your head.” Rainbow Dash said changing the subject on accident. “Go look in the mirror in the bathroom.” She offered him and told him where to go. She was right. A dark blue spot was located right where she pointed out. Ezio plugged the sink and filled it with warm water. He took one last look at the spot trying to remember how it got on his head.
“Oh well.” Where the last words Ezio said before submerging his face in the warm water and vigorously rub his hoof on the spot hoping it would wash off. Ezio head was in the water for a minute and pulled his head out of the water to see if he got the spot off. Instead of hoping to see the spot gone he sees an ugly, scarred, stitched and skin stretched face that looked like him.
“What the he…HEY GET OFF ME!!!!” Is what Ezio says when his reflection jumps out of the mirror and presses his hooves on Ezio’s throat. “Get the heck of me!!! Rainbow hel…you're not Dash.” He was right. It wasn't Rainbow Dash. Her skin was grey a ash, her cutie mark was a chained man not a rainbow lightning bolt, and she was carrying a shotgun and put it deep in the throat of the pale Pegasus and pulled the trigger with a loud bang.

“AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!” Ezio screamed as he shot up from the couch as Rainbow Dash, who was in the kitchen getting something to eat, ran over with pain from what happened at the thread shop to see if her crush was alright.
“Ezio what's wrong? Are you okay”?” Dash said looking worried
"I’m fine. You look better. Your eye is healing up.” Ezio was right. Last night it was like her under eye had plum paint on it, but now it looked like it was clearing up. “What time is it?” Ezio said rubbing his eyes and trying to get up.
“Between four to four thirty.” Dash said taking a sip from a cup. “No.. actually four fifty.” Rainbow Dash said looking at her clock.
“Oh God, IM GONNA BE LATE!!!” Ezio screamed flying out Rainbow Dash’s house.
“Wonder where he needs to be in a rush. Oh well.” Dash said about to sit on a couch until a voice entered her house.
“Hello Rainbow Tramp. I saw you sleeping with my Ezzy. I warned you. Now you die.”The intruder said pulling out a 44 and shooting the Pegasus in the spine.
-With Ezio-
“Ha-ha. That ponies and stallion, how we do it from the orphanage.” Ezio saib getting what little sweat he had from his forehead and gloating after winning his third race with the Wonderbolts.
“You’re good kid. What’s your name?”
“Just call me Ezio.” Ezio said catching his breath.
“Well Ezio. Welcome to the Wonderbolts. My name’s Soaron.”Soaron said sticking out his hoof to shake.
“Thanks Soron, but I need to go. I rushed out on a friend and I need to go back.” Ezio said flying off.
-Ezio at Dash’s house-
“What the hay.” Ezio said looking at the busted door of his friend’s house. “Nuts...” Ezio said walking in the house, avoiding the broken glass.
"Ezio…..he….help me.” Rainbow Dash said with blood filling her mouth and entry and exit wounds as well.
“Dear God. Hold on Dash. Ez said putting Dash on his back and flying to the hospital of nurse Redheart.
-At the Hospital-
“It’s not looking too good Ezio. She’s taken a hell of a beating. Bullet wounds broken bones. You name it she has it. We have her on life support but her vitals might go down. We’re going to take her off and let nature run its course. You understand right?”
“Completely.” Are the only words he can come up with at the moment until he falls in the hospital waiting chairs and breaks into major tears and grabs a nearby bucket to vomit in.
