Chapter 36

There were flashes. Flashes of everything, light, color, shapes and sound. My mind had the hardest time putting it all together. Everything felt like it was in a mix of moving too fast and too slow. I couldn’t think about what was happening, what happened five seconds ago, I couldn’t even figure out how long five seconds was.

I heard or sound. Either that or it was being projected in my direction. I heard one tone that got progressively louder, though if it actually was doing that I couldn’t tell.

“aaaaaaaaaaaa,” just a long tone I couldn’t put anything together. Between my mind being scrambled, and the heat and pressure invading every fiber of my being. I I could even see right then was some blue and this weird black blur. My field of vision moved away from that in some direction. Was it right, left? Up, down? In, out? My view came to something purple, I think I knew what it was. It was a she right? It was right in front of me but the dots wouldn’t connect.

Before anything even started coming together my consciousness latched onto something else. My vision focused on another black blur although I think it was farther away than the one I had seen already. I heard something come from it and I’m not sure but I was able to under stand the words

“GET AWAY FROM HIM YOU SON OF A BITCH!” The black blur was suddenly surrounded by many different colors. In a flash the colors moved with frightening speed. Even if I was in a normal state it would have been hard to keep track of how fast whatever I saw was moving. After losing track of it I heard a sound or a cacophony of sounds, it was hard to tell which. But along with the sound or sounds something else happened the pressure I was feeling moved, not slowly and past me but suddenly and away form me.

Suddenly everything snapped back. My vision unblurred, I took in a gasp of air, and everything came back. I saw that the black blur in front of me was one of Tirek’s tentacles that had impaled me, it was no longer in my body for some reason and without it holding me up I fell. I didn’t feel myself landing on my back, the pain radiating from the hole that was the left side of my chest was far beyond anything I felt. At first I wanted to scream but I didn’t have enough air, and trying to take in a breath hurt to much.

As I lay there my eyes fell on Tirek. He wasn’t calm and composed at the moment, more like in a rage or hurt. Little bits of something were sticking out of various parts of his body, little bits of metal slowly being melted by the fire and whatever else made up Tirek’s insides. My best guess was that it was Flintlock, I remembered hearing him gush about how he enchanted all parts of his armor so that he could turn it all into one giant shrapnel bomb. Although I wasn’t sure if he ever got it to properly work.

A nice soft feeling on my cheeks drew my attention as my vision was drawn to tear filled violet eyes. “Dan! Dan say something! Say Anything!” I could hear her choke on tears as she pleaded for me to give some kind of sign. But with a hole in my chest I think talking was out of the question. Weakly I lifted my right arm, it felt like it weighed a ton. As able as I could I placed my hand on top of her head. From the distance between us it wasn’t hard to notice the small shock as I gently stroked her mane. The look of distraught on her face slowly fading and a little more peace filling in. “Oh thank Faust, I thought I lost you,” she said nuzzling into my hand, even with the pain that feeling still felt better than anything. “I can’t believe you would do something so so-“I could see her about to start bawling again but she stopped when a golden glow lifted her off me.

“You can finish that sentence some other time Twilight but right now I think it’s a good idea that we help Dan,” Celestia came into view along with her giant mace floating gently beside her. Her white coat was smudged with burn marks and other things. “Although you might just want to go with wither brave or stupid,” she said as she lit up her horn again, this time the magic flowed into my giant wound. I felt nothing at first, then the warmth built up. With a sudden spark it felt like every part of my body had icy hot on it and in it. “You know Dan I never actually named this healing spell. It can heal a great deal of many things, including those things that have been lost. I haven’t had to use it on many, in fact I’ve used it on you the most. Maybe I should name it after you,” she said her magic still flwoing into my body.

“Is he going to be ok princess?” Twilight hovered next to Celestia.

“As long as I can hold the spell. I’ve also taught it to Luna and Cadence but I’m the most proficient at it and it will take less time to-“

“PRINCESS ABOVE YOU!” a shout interrupted the princess and caused us to look skyward at a tentacle came down at us. But in the nick of time a pink shield surrounded us and absorbed the impact, Cadence appeared next to Twilight still using her magic to do something to the shield.

“And did you think I simply would allow you the time Celestia?” I could hear Tirek calling from where ever he was. He sounded like he was in at leasta little bit of pain.
