Forever and Always

Crimson Ace

Fire is roaring in the beautiful city of Equestria, the buildings are almost completely destroyed with most of the ponies living in Equestria are either dead, or severely injured with their blood spilled on the floor, creatures are circling around the town destroying things in sight.

A pink and blue light were shot which revealed the Mane six and two full grown ponies being in the center of the town looking bloody, bruised, and severely injured beyond belief. The creatures noticed the six ponies and they charge right at them. During the fight a blue pony with rainbow highlights and a rainbow lightning tattoo mark on her butt noticed some cracks on the ground. The remaining ponies notice the cracks and they move out of the way of it, afterwards the cracks begin to grow wider and wider, til fire was erupting from outside of the cracks. Then the fire is being afloot in the air and morphed into a gigantic fireball.

“No…” A white pony with Pink, Purple, aqua blue, and green mane and tail said

“We’re all doomed” a dark blue pony with lightish dark blue hair says.

Then the fireball soon grew bright red menacing eyes, the fireball soon transformed into a creature with giant spiky wings on it’s back.

“Hello...Princess” The creature says in a menacing tone.

The eight ponies we’re looking at the creature in a angry expression, while one looked shocked, and another one was scared.

“And Goodbye” It said.

Soon afterwards dark energy was flowing through it’s body, then as it was done charging, the dark energy was fired at the eight ponies.

“Ahh!” A voice cries out.

Reality kicks in as someone yells which reveals a teenaged boy with red and white spiky hair, bright red skin, a red and gray jacket, a light gray tank top, light blue pants, and white shoes on woke up from his dream while inside which looks like a classroom.

“Well good morning, Crimson Ace, did you sleep well?” A female teacher asked, as a few giggles were heard in the classroom.

‘Crimson Ace’ looked embarrassed and mad as he blushed after what happened.

“Now that you’re awake, would you help me by answering this question here on the board?” She asked as she touches the board.
After looking at the board for a few seconds, he was looking confused and a bit embarrassed clearly not knowing the answer to the math question on the board.

“Can i pass?” Crimson Ace asks sounding embarrassed.

“Why yes you can” The teacher says. “I only wish you can ‘pass’ my class as well”

The students was chuckling and giggling after she said that leaving Ace embarrassed and a bit pissed off as he puts his head on the desk. After class is over everyone especially Crimson Ace left the classroom and starts walking towards the hallway, Crimson Ace arrived at his locker and books his books and his bag inside of it then closed the locker.

“Hey! Watch where your going!” A loud voice was heard right around the corner by Ace’s locker.

As Ace looks right around the corner there was a normal slightly buff looking teenager who was right up against a light yellow skinned teenage girl with bright pink hair.

“Oh. I’m so sorry, i did not see you there” The pink haired girl said sounding shy.

“Well sorry isn't cutting it! This was my favorite shirt you’ve ruined!” The guy complains as he looks as though he spilled coffee on his shirt. “Now you’re gonna pay for it!” He threatens.

As he does so the shy girls bag made some noises inside it sounding like an animal inside it.

“And what would that be?” He asked in an evil smirk.

“N-nothing” The nervous girl asked sounding well nervous. Then another noise was heard coming from her bag

"No, it was definitely something. And it appears to be coming from your little backpack!" The teenage bully says as he grabs her bag.

As he grabbed the bag the shy pink haired girl was attempting to move away from him.

"Please let go!" She cries out.

"You let go of the car! Bitch" He says as he laughs.

As he was attempting to steal her bag, a hand was pulled on his shoulder and he was violently turned around, and was slammed towards the locker by Crimson Ace.

"Knock that crap off and leave her alone now" He says in anger in his tone.

"Or what? What the hell are you gonna do about it?" The bully asked.

A hard punch in the stomach was landed to the bullies stomach by Crimson Ace, which made the bully stumble a bit and another stomach punch was landed on his stomach again making him lose his breathing Crimson slammed him into the locker.

"Want to test me again? be careful though you only got one last chance left" Crimson Ace says.

As he says that the bully was still attempting to catch his breath as he was looking like he quite in pain.

"That's what i thought" Crimson Ace says.

He snatched back the girls bag from the bullies hands, after that he knees him in the stomach and pushed him on the ground with great strength,

"We're done talking, get the hell out of my sight" He said to the bully.

The bully gets up from the floor, glares at Crimson Ace and points at him as he walks away from him and the shy girl who saw the whole thing looking a bit scared, after Crimson Ace glared at the bully again he turns around at the shy girl and walked up towards her.

"You ok?" He asked.

The shy girl looked a bit nervous and a bit scared as he came up to her. Crimson Ace had an annoyed look written on his face.

"Don't worry i'm not gonna hurt you" He said, Crimson reaches his hand out with her backpack in his hand.

She looked at her bag and she was smiling a bit there as she snatched and hugged to it tightly.

"Oh Thank you so much!" She says. "i never thought what i would do without this!"

"Why, you got something important in there?" Crimson asked.

"Well, it just that...I have animals in my bag" the shy girl says nervously.

"...What?" Crimson asked further.

"I have my cute little animal friends inside" She said as her bag opens up showing some little animals from bunnies, birds, and turtles. "they get so lonely when i go to school, so i thought they should come with me"

"...That makes sense, i guess" Crimson Ace says sounding unsure what to think.

"I get it, you think it's weird don't you?" She asked.

"Well to be honest it's kind of weird, but at the same time it's a bit kind of you to do that" Crimson answers.

As he says that the shy girl smiled at his comment afterwords she zipped up her bag and puts it back on her.

"Anyways i'm glad your not hurt or anything, i'll see you around" Crimson ace says as he starts to walk away.

"Oh right" He says as he stops in his tracks and turns around facing the shy girl. "I almost forgot, my name's, Crimson Ace, what's yours?" He asked.

"My names Flut--" The girl whispered.

"I'm sorry, what was that? i didn't get what you said" Crimson Ace says.

"It's Flutter--" She whispers a bit louder.

Ace looked at her for three seconds afterwards.

"Ok, i think i got it now. You said your names Fluttershy right?" He asked, Fluttershy nods her head after he asked that question.

"See you around, Fluttershy" He said as he walks off away from her.

People voices we're heard inside of the guys locker room, inside it Ace is already changed into his gym clothes which unlike most students who look to be wearing a white shirt and shorts, he was wearing a red and white shirt, and some white pants on. There were some laughter coming from his left side of the locker room area, he looks around and he sees Jocks picking on some weaker and smaller looking student by taking his belongings and tossing it around his friends.

"Come on! Give that back!" The smaller boy says.

"You hear that guys, he wants his little inhaler back" The jocks says mockingly as some of them laughed.

"Sure little buddy, we'll give it back. If you can catch it that is!" The jock says as he threw the small teenagers inhaler far from him.

The small teenager was running after the inhaler the jock just threw it across the room and landed at the wall and onto the floor, the boy starts running towards the inhaler until a leg popped out of nowhere and tripped him as he was running and he fell down face first.

"Oops, sorry" A jock said sarcastically and mockingly as he laughed along with the other Jocks.

The jocks soon left the kid alone and were walking away laughing it up to their fun.

"Loser" One of the jocks said.

"My god" Crimson says in annoyance watching the whole thing facepalming. "It's like they don't ever want to grow up"

Then inside the Gym there were people including Crimson Ace sitting on the bleachers with some people talking, some looking bored, and some looking just plain bored. On the field people were playing dodge ball with the usual Jocks vs nerds, Jocks are dominating Nerds left and right, some of them are cowering away from the dodge balls while some are dodging out of the way of it.

"Oh this is just pathetic" He says.

"Tell me about it" One of the students next to him says in agreement. "It's not like they haven't played sports before we do this basically every day of the week"

"I know, they expect this side of the field would get better anytime soon" Crimson says.

A dodge ball was heard making impact to one of the losing sides teams and it made him land back on the bleachers back first next to the student Crimson Ace was talking to.

"I wouldn't say soon" The student says to Crimson Ace.

"Yeah! Score another one for Rainbow Dash!" A light blue girl with rainbow hair says as she spins a red rubber ball on her fingertip.

"Yeesh!" A orange skinned girl with blonde hair and a cowboy hat says with a thick southern accent. "Why that rainbow dash sure is competitive" She says.

"Your not gonna quit on me are you, Applejack?" Rainbow dash asked holding a red rubber ball.

"Who me? Never!" Applejack responds with a smirk on her face.

A dodgeball was thrown right at Applejack. With her strength she caught it in one hand without even looking at her left and right side, making the nerds and geeks looking at her with their mouths open wide, as well as the jocks. A whistle was blown and the two jocks who threw the ball went to sit down.

"Ace! Lincoln! Get out to the field!" The coach says.

Crimson Ace get's on the field where Applejack is, Ace Looks right at the jocks area and only two out of the whole jock team was out sitting on the bleachers while the rest of the nerd side is almost out with only four players out on the field.

"Bring it on, Applejack!" Rainbow Dash says as she threw the ball right at AppleJack which she blocked with one of the balls she still has in her hands.

"Best look out rainbow!" Applejack retorts as she threw one of the balls really hard.

Rainbow dash manages to dodge out of the way and in the end hits one of the Jocks, the jocks afterwords starts throwing dodge balls at everyone including applejack which she just catches one of the balls, as well as blocking and dodging out of the way. One of the Jocks threw the ball at Crimson Ace, just like Applejack he catches the ball in his hands.

"Alright, time to change up the playing field" He says.

Crimson Ace threw the ball to the Jocks as hard as he could, the ball landed right where the Jocks feet are, he flipped in the air and landed back on the ground face first. After the coach's whistle blew the Jock's starts grabbing some more Dodge balls and was throwing it at the rest of the losing team, Crimson and Applejack dodged out of the way of the incoming balls, Crimson manages to find a ball on the ground.

"Whoa!" He says as he blocked an incoming ball from hitting him with the ball he's holding. "Oh you wanna play? Alright let's play!"

Crimson afterwards threw the ball right at the Jocks, they dodged away from the incoming rubber ball and they begin to retaliate back at Ace, Applejack catches one of the balls and threw it right at Rainbow dash whom she dodges out of the way and attempts to do the same thing to AppleJack. One of the nerds in the team picks up a ball and with their limited strength they threw it at the jocks which they've caught with little ease.

"Take this wimps!" One of the jocks says as he throws it at them.

Ace blocks the ball attack with a ball he grabbed from the floor, seconds later he threw the same ball he blocked with at the jock and hits him square in the face, Rainbow Dash picks up two balls and attempts to throw it at Applejack.

"Whoa Nelly!" She yells out as she dodged out of the way of the rubber balls

...but it landed on two unlucky members on her team, poor guys.

"Sorry!" She says, then she dodged away from another ball heading right towards her.

Which after doing so she looks right at Crimson Ace and at Rainbow Dash's team leaving only Crimson Ace and Her, against only the same amount as what Rainbow Dash has.

"Looks like it's me and you now!" Applejack says.

"Seems like it, gotta admit your pretty tough" Crimson Ace says.

"Thanks partner, My names Applejack by the way" She says.

"Crimson Ace. Look out!" He warns as he dodged out of the way.

Applejack does so as well after realizing the ball was coming right at her, Crimson Ace picked up a ball from the floor yet again after a bunch of dodge balls are heading his direction.

"Whoa! Crap! Easy!" He yelled each time a ball was aiming directly at him

He throws a ball, but it misses Rainbow dash and the Jock completely, soon after words a ball was thrown again only this time AppleJack seems to be the one who threw it right at the Jock no less.

"Yes! Whoa!" She says after nearly dodging another Dodgeball attack.

Ace comes walking up to Applejack with two balls in his hand (no pun intended) and he throws one of them to Applejack which she catches in one hand.

"I don't know about you but i'm just about tired of this" Applejack says.

"The feeling is mutual" Crimson Ace says in agreement.

"What's the hold up yo two, come on! I can take both of you down with one rm tied behind my back!" Rainbow Dash says in her usual cocky attitude.

"You know Rainbow, you should really be careful of what you wish for" Applejack says. "Otherwise you may not like what you get!"

"Blah Blah Blah, hurry up!" Rainbow Dash demands.

"She's fast you know, anyways to hit her?" Crimson Ace asks.

"Your looking at it" Applejack says

"What?" He asks further.

"Just follow my lead" She says to him. "What's the hold up rainbow, i thought you wanna win"

Applejack drops her ball on the ground, she gives a wink to Crimson and, after a second he figured out what she meant and dropped the ball as well.

The crows from the losers side are mumbling in the background confused to what's going on.

"What are you doing?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Well i thought i might give you the free shot, considering the fact that you might miss me next time" Applejack says.

"Oooh, we'll see about that!" Rainbow Dash soon throws the ball at Applejack who she dodged out of the way.

"Now!" Applejack says as she picks up the same ball from the ground.

She threw it at Rainbow dash, which she dodges out of the way...Again, Crimson Ace soon throws two balls at Rainbow Dash, one which she dodges, another she catches in her hands. Then she throws the ball right at Crimson Ace which was coming to fast for him as it hits him in the stomach making him fly back to the bleachers as he landed back first on it hard as the whistle blew.

"Ow..." He says.

Applejack was looking behind the bleachers and sees Crimson Ace back on the bleachers looking stunned, then she looks back at Rainbow Dash who was bouncing a dodge ball in her hand, Applejack soon spots a rubber ball right next to her, both Applejack and Rainbow Dash both have a stand off looking at each other. Three seconds later Applejack rolls over to the ball and as she does Rainbow Dash throws the ball right at Applejack and AppleJack throws the ball right at Rainbow Dash, the two balls go right pass each other, Rainbow Dash ducks at the ball Applejack thrown, unfortunately for Applejack she got hit with the ball square in the face, which made her hat fly off her head. A whistle was blown yet again by the Coach.

"Winner! Jocks!" He says.

everyone from the jocks side was cheering especially Rainbow Dash who was jumping around crazy.

"Yes! Woohoo!" She cheers.

The losing side moans in defeat and maybe possibly in pain as well.

"Cheer yup y'all there's always next time" Applejack says.

"Yeah, next time...When will that be" One of the students asked.

Crimson Ace hits the back of his head at the bleachers in annoyance.
