At least talk to the man," Said Applejack trying to convince her friend to talk to Poison. "I told you before applejack. I'm not talking to him yet," Said twilight carefully putting books back into their rightful place. "Come on Twi. Fluttershy is already there trying to convince the man to leave the estate. He's done locked himself up in his room and refused to leave ever since...Cadence." "I told you applejack. NOT YET." 0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0 "Come on Carnage...open the door," Asked fluttershy trying to convince her friend to open the door. "I'm not Carnage anymore. I'm poison. And poison should be locked up in a vault." "W-why don't we give you a name other then Poison?" After a long and awkward silence Poison finally spoke up and said "Johnny. Call me Johnny." "Ok johnny. Can you please open the door?" After 10 minutes of silence; Johnny finally opened the door and let fluttershy in. Which revealed his room to be a mess. The walls were covered in scratch's, punch holes, words written in blood saying "murderer, home wrecker and finally written in in huge bold letters were the word MONSTER written by the wall. "Thank you for letting me in. Johnny? I hope you know its not your fault. You could not have known that your symbiote created an offspring. No one could." "No.. I couldn't. But if I didn't come here in the first place...No one would have died. Especially cadence. She didn't DESERVE to die. She was....perfect." "You liked Cadence. Didn't you?" "She reminded me too much of Carol." "Carol? Who's Carol?" After realizing what he just blurted Poison released a howling scream. A scream of pure terror and anger. "GET OUT. LEAVE!" Tendrils then formed from poisons suit and shoved fluttershy out of the room and locking the door with a loud *Click*. 0-0-0-0-0-0-0 A carriage pulled up next to the estate revealing Luna. When she finally made it to Poison's room all of the mane six were present excluding Twilight. "Where is Twilight?" Asked Luna. "She didn't want to come," Said Rarity bluntly. "Let me in," Said Luna. "He's been like this for the past hour now," Said pinkie genuinely worried "Poison? Let me in," Said Luna. "H-his name is J-Johnny," Said fluttershy slight stuttering. "Johnny? It's me Luna. Let me in." After a few minutes of silence; Luna finally opened the door forcefully revealing a room with even more blood marks and more scratch's. "By Celestia... Johnny are you there? I'm coming in." Almost immediately after saying this the doors swung closed. "Johnny?" "I'm on the bed..." "Oh there you are. Why don't we let some light in here?" Before she opened the window Poison slung out a web and shut the window. "No...What do you want from a murderer like me?" After a flash of light Luna changed from pony shape to being human like stature with hands feet the whole sha-bang. "I thought it be a bit easier to talk if I was more like you." "I don't care. What do you want?" "To talk." "Too bad. I am not talking." "Please? For me?" "What do you want to know?" "Why do you blame yourself?" "Because if I didn't show up here; Cadence would still be alive. Shining and Twilight would be happy." After a minute of silence Luna spoke up and said "Could you please show me your face?" Obviously startled by this Poison's mask retreated into the suit and revealed his face once more. "My my. Your a handsome colt." Then Luna started to stroke Johnny's hair and leaned in slowly...and kissed Johnny on his lips. Surprised Johnny's body commanded him to retreat but his mind and heart wouldn't allow it. Johnny stroked Luna's starry mane. And they finally released each other. "Will you be ok Johnny?" "Yes princess." Then the door opened revealing Luna in her pony shape and Poison walking out slowly with his head down. "You ok partner?" Asked Applejack. Making his mask retreat back into suit Johnny gave a quick smile and chuckle and said "Yeah. Luna showed me something. Something I understand now." "Well I must go back to the palace. Royal business and all." Right before luna left she gave Poison a quick kiss on the cheek and left humming to her self. With that all the mare's jaw's dropped speechless. "Where's twilight?" Asked Poison. "Back in the library." Said Rarity. After a quick setup Poison sprinted out of the estate as quickly as he could. "And here I thought I would be his first kiss in Equestria." Said Rarity still lock jawed.
