//------------------------------// // Chapter 13: Ponyville Attacked! (Part 3): The Human Hero (Edited) // Story: Equis Saga: Adventures and New Life in Equestria // by JeromyTG2 //------------------------------// 3rd person POV: 10 minutes ago, after Rainbow Dash's escape with Rarity and ponies... Jyro, now standing alone against a large pack of Timberwolves by himself. He is surprised to see the wolves are not going to chase after the ponies when they noticed. In his mind, he knows some basic knowledge about wolves and they are no different than the wolves that are standing now in front of him. They all follow their pack leader, and it has already comfirmed that the loud growl is their leader, or alpha. As a minute passed, something is coming towards the pack and human in, and it is making big heavy steps as it gets closer, along with a heavy distorted growl. The wolves in front of the human stopped their growling and turned around behind them. Now, Jyro sees the wolves turn, as the large ones begin to split from the back row, now his view is now visible down the middle, and saw the most intimidating thing he has seen so far in his life. His guess? The alpha is here. Making its way to the human, this Timberwolf is the most vicious looking out of all of its pack, and the most largest. Maybe as big as a standard heavy truck! The wooden body is somehow almost neatly carved in almost in a neat wolf shape with scars, but with some branches sticking out on its body, its jaws clean and sharp with drooling sap, and the most terrifying feature of this creature, is its eyes. Those menacing, evil, crecent-shaped eyes staring down at the lone human. For Jyro, he is terrified not being used to over height certain creatures, but when one over passes him, he's in a world of trouble. Jyro's POV: "This is not good..." I muttered, gazing upon the wooden behemoth. "NO. IT IS NOT, CREATURE." it spoke. "*!* You... can talk!?" I said in shock. "YES. IT IS ALL THANKS TO YOU, GRANTING ME THE ABILITY TO SPEAK." it said in a deep distorted voice. "What? What did I even do to give you speach?" I asked. "MY PACK BROUGHT SOMETHING TO ME THAT IS SOMETHING ELSE THAN A WEAK LITTLE PONY. IT CHANGED ME, MY STRENGTH, AND GRANTED ME WORDS." "How?" an eerie vibe start to send chills to the human. ... ... ... I don't know why it's taking it more than a minute to respond, but waiting for its answer is starting to- "... YOUR BLOOD!" it said in even more menacing as it starts to drool sap even more, "YOUR BLOOD IS THE KEY TO OUR EVOLUTION AND OUR UPRISING TO REBEL ACROSS THE LAND!" I could not believe what I'm hearing! Is it because of me they wanted find, and the reason why they attacked the town and hurting almost every pony in town!? Because of me!? "WE WILL FEAST UPON YOU! GAIN OUR STRENGTH AND OUR WORDS!" (No...) "MY PACK WILL STRIVE ACROSS THIS DREADFUL LAND AND SLAUGHTER EVERYTHING IN OUR PATH TO EXPAND OUR TERRITORY!" (NO...) "THOSE WEAK PUNY PONIES WILL NOT BE AROUND AS WE FEAST UPON THEM DURING OUR SLAUGHTER AND SHOW THEM TRUE MEANING OF FEAR!" (NO! *clench*) "AND AS FOR THEIR PRINCESS,..." (YOU WOULDN'T!) "*SLURP* I WILL FEAST ON HER FIRST AND WITNESS THE FEARFUL EYES ON EVERY SIDE IN EQUESTRIA! BY MY JAWS!" Not wanting to let them have a chance, I've had enough of its bloody speach and rushed in, ready the bat in my hands, and unleash a brutal downward-swing infused with anger at the Alpha. I will not let any of these monsters slaughter these innocent ponies, because of me. During the swing, I felt a tingling feeling surged in my body, to my arms, then my hands. *SLAM!* Stop Music! That swing felt more force than I have done to the other wolves, and it made me lose my balance by causing the ground to shake. I was in shock, did that impact I made shook the ground? Was it from that weird sensation I've felt durining my swing did this? Did I use magic without thinking? I don't fully understand how this all works, but, if I have time with Twilight, I'll probably ask her about it. Sitting on the ground as I lost my balance, the dust settles from the impact I made and the bat I used is still in one piece. (WOW! Talk about hitting fastballs, I probably would hit a home-run with a boulder!) *crack* (... never-mind.) Just by a jinx, the bat has now split from the core and it is now useless. (*sigh* Great! Now I need to buy that colt a new bat... but at least I'll thank him for it.) With that aside, I now look at the monster, its head is gone and the body is still there and standing. A moment in silence filled the air, the wolves around me are silent as well, seeing the devastating blow of their leader and after a few minutes, it went limp and broke down. (Is it over?) I thought it would be over, but I've already witnessed how these Timberwolves can put themselves back together. Waiting if that will happen, the silence broke by the sound of steps, it became louder and its getting closer. "*WOOSH!* *pant* There you are!" It's Rainbow Dash, "I was worried that you-" "Why are you here!?" I shouted, while expressing with my arms. "... What does it look like? We're here to help!" she pointed to the woods, and to my shock, all her friends are here. "*pant* Jyro! I'm so glad you're still okay!" panted Twilight, seeing that they all ran here, "I was worried *pant* of what has happened when we heard the explosion." "Don't worry about me! What I want to know is, why are all if you here, and why are you not helping ponies back at the fields!" I can't even understand why they ran all the way over here for. They will get hurt or even worse. "Well, it's our turn to say the obvious now, Mr. Hero!" spat Twilight, "The ponies back in town are safe and the rescue team have arrived to keep them safe. And now, we are here for you, because we don't want to lose our new friend who's been here for the last week. I'm not sure of what happened to your friend back in world, but just so you know, you are not alone! We got your back! And yes, I was listening." she finished as all her friends stood beside her, each giving their determined faces. Besides, Fluttershy, at least she's with them. I never would've thought that these ponies,... no... girls would care very deeply for me, yet we've only met for a few days. I grew very independent in my time, back in my old world, ever since I lost my friend, and I feel ashamed for looking back in that time. But then, these girls came into my life, they welcomed me, they care, they showed me kindness, loyalty, laughter, generosity, honesty, all reached out and grant me their friendship. Or, in their case, the Magic of Friendship. They are the most amazing friends, one could ever have. "*sniff* Oh you guys." I started to tear, for hearing how much they cared for me, "You have no idea how have I waited for someone to say that!" *RUSTLE* "*sniff* I have lost the feeling of friendship from the world I live in, because everyone there never reached out to me when they see me..." *RUSTLING* "But, now *sniff* you girls have no idea how I have waited for someone to reach out to me. *sniff* It means a lot." as I look up and see the girls, I stopped. Now all of them seem to have either shock or feared expressions, but they don't seem to look at me, more like... above... me... That's when it hit me. *GROWL* ".......... crap!" *WHAM!* ... *THUMP!* (... Okay... that hurt...) 3rd person POV: INSERT EPIC MUSIC!!! Jyro was heavily hit by the alpha wolf, tumbled across the field, and stopped against the tree. From that, he has never experienced that kind of pain before, and thus caused him to go unconscious. "JYRO!!!" shouted the Mane 6, as they witnessed their new friend get hurt really bad by the alpha. "RRRRRRAAAAAHHHH!!! YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT TWIG-HEAD!!!" shouted Rainbow Dash, waisting no time and started attacking the alpha head on. "Fluttershy! Go to, Jyro and see if he is alright!" ordered Twilight, as she and her friends are beside her, "We'll deal with this monster! Right girls!?" "Right!" they shouted, and start to charge at the alpha. The other wolves growled, as they are ready to attack, but the Alpha snarled, giving a command that caused the other wolves to stop. It didn't matter to the girls, of why they stop, but for the Alpha, it wants to demonstrate its new power. While they are both busy, Fluttershy is next to Jyro's side to see if he is okay. Witnessing the horrifying condition he is in, all covered in burns, cuts, and bruises possibly from the attack and seeing her friend get hurt. She couldn't bare but cry over from the pain she sees. (How can a beast do this to a sweet, innocent, being like, him? He protects his friends and others he cares about. How much more pain does her friend have to take for all?) "Jyro... *sob sob* How can you get hurt like this?" she cried as she continue to check his body, until she stopped now hovering over his head, "You've done this much for our sake, and yet,... you take more... *sob* punishment... *sob sob* Please be okay." she continued, as she closed her eyes, then a single tear dropped down from her eyes and hit the human's face. By that moment, he opened his eyes, but something has changed, they are glowing, giving his eye color a bright green shine! "*GASP* YOU'RE OKAY! *sniff* I was so worried that you never wake up." she said, relieved, and kept eyeing him, "Don't you worry, our friends will deal with that monster." ...... no response, "... Jyro? Are you okay?" He didn't reply, as he is laying still with a blank expression on his face. Suddenly, Rainbow Dash landed right next to the two of them, and now is covered in scratches. "Grrrgh!" grunted Rainbow, trying to shake off the pain, "Hey, Shy! How is the big guy holding up!?" "He seems to be fine, but, something is... strange about him." said Fluttershy. "Yeah? What's wrong with him?" "... His eyes!" "What?" she asked, as she gets a closer look at her friend. "Woah! Freaky..." she looked straight into his eyes and wondered why he is not saying anything, "Hey! Big Guy! You okay? ... Hello?" he said nothing, just laying there, motionless, but still breathing and eyes glowing. Yet, oddly enough, the eyes are somewhat hypnotizing them, and find them very... cool and beautiful. *RRRROOOOOAAAAAARRRRRR!!!!! They snapped out of their trance and see the alpha with a huge roar and shocked to see their friends are having trouble keeping up and already worn out. Twilight, is still on her hooves, but panting from exhaustion both physical and magical, Rarity, who looked more worn than the rest, has her hind legs are at rest as her front legs struggle to stand, Pinkie Pie, is somewhat unscathed for some unknown reason, and finally Applejack, who is knelt down for having monster get the best of her efforts. This, brutal monster, might be too much for the girls, if they do not think of something fast,... they are done for. "Ugggh! Dang! I gotta go help them out!" said Rainbow Dash. "Wait! What about, Jyro?" asked Fluttershy. "You keep an eye on him while I-" "YOU WEAK PONIES!" it said, as everyone froze since it is their first time hering it speak, YOU ONLY HAVE MADE A SCRATCH ON ME DURING YOUR EFFORTS! NOW YOU ALL HAVE WITNESSED THAT I AM NOW UNSTOPPABLE AND SHOW YOU THAT THIS WILL BE THE END TO PONYKIND!!!" hearing those words from the monster has sent shivers and fear to the girls as it is willing to slaughter ponies across, Equestria. At that moment, unaware for both Fluttershy and Rainbow, Jyro stood up, and started walking towards the monster. The peaguses were shocked to see their friend get up so sudden. As the human gets closer, the alpha start to notice his appearance. "*GRRRR* YOU ARE STILL ALIVE? YOU MIGHT HAVE JUST LIE THERE AFTER I SLAUGHTER THESE PONIES UNTIL WE FEAST UPON YOU, BUT NO, IT IS NOT ENOUGH! JUST ONE BITE, THAT'S ALL IT TAKES! *RRRRROOOAAARRR!!!*" the alpha starts to charge at the humans, so it can feed off more. "JYRO!!!" the girls screamed for their human friend and about to see that he may have an early life here... Stop Music! In that moment, it happend... The human's eyes glowed brighter than before, and light-green and multi-colored aura is surrounding his body. The alpha is just inches way to end him,... until... *VOOOOOMMMM!!!* A huge amount of unknown magical energy has pulsed across the forest. Surprisingly, unknown to the girls, it is powerful enough to spread across almost the entire land of Equestria! But, as this magical energy has passed through them, they suddenly absorbed and emit something through their bodies as their eyes glowed bright, almost the same as the human's eyes. Something phenomenal is happening to them, but at some cost, all six mares who stood and witnessed have all fallen unconscious. As for the Timberwolves, unfortunate for them, they have been blown away from the blast, for the alpha is worse as not only its been blown, but lost its enhanced strength, gained from the blood of the human. Just what caused Jyro to burst this amount of energy? And what will this energy affect to the others across Equestria? Meanwhile... *Silver Shade POV* I could not believe he would do it! Just as the Rescue Team arrived nearly an hour ago, him and some other ponies helped him and saved the rest of the ponies who were stuck, even when surrounded by, Timberwolves! But what shocked me most, from what I've heard from, Celestia’s protege, he jumped in a burning building and saved a colt who was stuck on the second floor and jumped out of the window, sacrificed his own body while holding the poor colt in his arms, and reunited his mother unscathed! I speculated this human since the first time I've seen him, yet his bravery and interesting character is what already defines him. I must say, even his reckless nature can get himself killed, also an important stand out to his kind, he is a hero on this day... *VOOOOOMMMM!!!* "*!* What was... that... *ugh*" I said, when a great unknown magical force has pulsed through me. Not only me, but other ponies have felt it as well. This sensation felt... strange. It's as my body have absorbed something, yet it feels... overwhelming. *THUMP...... THUMP... THUMP.. THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMPTHUMPTHUMPTHUMP* WHAT IN CELESTIA’S NAME!? Ponies started to feint one by one all of the sudden, even the members of the Rescue Team have fainted as well! What! Why... am I....... I........... feel.... *THUMP* *Celestia’s POV* I am still worried for my innocent ponies in Ponyville. It's been already a few hours since the Timberwolves attacked. This is strange, the Timberwolves don't normally attack anything that are outside the Everfree Forest, but why have they decided to attack the town? Oh... I hope none of my dear subjects are hurt in any way, including my student, and her friends. ... No! No need to be weary, Celestia, you must have faith in your subjects. But,... what about, Jyro? Hmm... *VOOOOOMMMM!!!* *GASP!* What was that!? It's magic, but I have never felt anything like that before. I feel as if I absorbed and happen to have my magic charged more than my own. Yet, this kind of magic is a bit... alien and... strange... *SLAM!* "SISTER! DID YOU FELT THAT!?" asked my sister, as she burst through the door with a troubled expression. "Yes. I have, Luna. It's something I have never felt like that before." "What do thou think of this meaning?" "I don't know, this magic is a bit strange to me. We need to-" "Your Highness!" shouted the guards, as a few came in, "We felt the unknown force. Are you two alright?" "Yes. We are fine. Since you all are here, I want you to got to the city and see if there are any-" *THUMP* "... problems?" I stopped, as one of the guards collapse suddenly. "Get up, soldier! This is no... time....... for........ w-w-wha? ...... *ughhhh*" *THUMP* Another guard passed out, then suddenly, all of them have collapsed. WHAT IN EQUESTRIA IS GOING ON!? "*Ughhh* Sis-... ter!" groaned Luna, seeing her if she was having a migraine. "Luna! Are you- *ughhh*" NOW I'M HAVING IT TOO!? I tried to fight it off willingly, but it feels that my body is forcing to shut down... *rrrggghhh* try...... to... *THUMP* My sister,... she collapsed..... beside me...... Is this...... how.......... it... ends? "I.......... I..........." *THUMP* *3rd Person POV* All ponies, including the the mane six, and other living creatures across the land have felt this unknown energy that spread across Equestria, all fell into a temporary slumber. Without any of them knowing, there is something miracle happening in their bodies as it takes effect. This unknown force has somewhat given them something supernatural. Each of their unique selves! Could it be magic based, or physical attributes? What mysteries to solve for this unknown phenomenon? There is only one being that fully knows and aware of what is going on... "... There. Right at the perfect moment to have it happened. Now everyone there will have a fighting chance, so now a few of them will fight by his side and stop any evil force... Including,... him..." said the white giant hand known as, Master Hand, watching from an unknown dimensional place, "I'm glad he didn't notice what I've put in him, in the future he would now foiled his plans... Eventually." He said as he now vanishes in the dark behind him. *8 minutes later after everyone collapsed* *Jyro POV* *Uggghhh...* Man! It feels like I stayed up overnight, with a hangover, and rolled down a long flight of stairs all together before I've passed out. And no, I don't drink... I slowly sit up and hissed in pain from the sudden soreness all over my body, but as I look up, I see all of my six friends lying on the ground. (No! Are they...) Biting my lip to ignore the soreness, I crawled to Twilight, who is close next to Rarity, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie, and see if they are not what I thought to believe. (...... Oh thank God!) I was in relief that they are still breathing, but... unconscious? What happened here? Come to think of it, why are we not eaten up yet? I thought the Timberwolves would have their chance while we were out. "... ow. ow! OW!" I cried, as I try to shift my sore body to lie down. But beside the uncomfortable feeling in my body, I tried to remember of what happened. The moment six of the girls came to my support, I was so moved by their loyalty, I got hit really hard from behind by something... then that's it! That's all I remembered. Just what happened here...? For a moment of sitting and thinking, I hear groans, and it's not from the Timberwolves, it's from the girls! I grunted to sit up and endured the pain to see the girls wake up. "*Ugh* W-wha... w-what happened?" said Twilight, as the rest wake up groggly. As they all come to their senses, Twilight looked around and saw me. "Hey." I said, then she immediately sprinted towards me and giving me a bone-crushing hug out of worry. "Jyro! *woosh* I'm so glad your okay!" "Y-yeah, I'm... fine. But, Twi, can... you-" "JYRO!" then the rest of the girls came and we bunled up in a group hug. I never have been in the middle of the hug in my life, but... its nice. And painful... (Okay....... OW!) "Um. Girls. I'm... flattered to see you all worried about me... and I'm glad to see that you all are okay,... but I'm pretty sore right now..." after saying that, they immediately let go, but that still didn't relieve the pain. "Are you alright, Jyro?" asked Twilight. "Yeah, just really sore. Around,... everywhere." I groaned. "Oh no. Do you need anything?" asked Fluttershy. "Maybe an ice pack would be nice." "Here you go!" popped up Pinkie, giving me a bag of ice. "Umm....... thanks,... Pinkie." she smiled, as I took the ice pack from her. I was unsure how and where she got it from. (Hmm... better not ask...) "... Well, we need to get back into town and check on the rest." said Twilight, "Applejack, Rainbow, can you help, Jyro up?" "Sure thing, Twi." said Applejack. "Whoa! Hold on a minute!" stopped Rainbow, "I want to know what just happened a few minutes ago! How and when did the big guy have magic? And how did he do that without doing anything?" they stop and wondered how did I pull a stunt that I don't even remember, "Jyro! Explain! How did you do that?" she asked in front of my face waiting for my answer. "I... I don't... remember." I said, as Rainbow wondered 'how', "The last thing I remembered is when I got hit by something hard and that's it. I woke up and saw all of you unconscious." "Seriously? You don't remember blasting those Timberwolves with just one spell?" "N-no. I don't remember doing that. Was that the reason why they're not here?" "Jyro, you've emitted a very powerful magical outburst that nopony has ever seen!" explained Twilight, "That kind of magic could surpass alicorn magic alone! Yet, your magic has some kind of strange feel to it. Like, for some reason, we absorbed something... natural during that blast, and if I'm sure, that may be the reason why we were unconscious." I thought for a moment about what, Twilight just said. "So,... did I just... explode?" I asked. "Not really, you've just released a huge amount of magical energy that could possibly spread acr- *GASP!*" Twilight suddenly gasped at the point she realized what she just said. "What is it!?" "Spike! We need to head back to town! NOW!" just as she said that, we all start to run through the forest and hurried back to town. Before I forget, I found and picked up the two split pieces of the bat that I borrowed, and took it with me. While running, I'm having a hard time to catch up to the girls, thanks to my soreness, but Rainbow and Applejack helped with some weight off, so I can increase my speed a little with less pain. I'm glad I have friends that help me push through. Stop Music! *3rd Person POV* As seven of them exit the forest, they headed to the fields where everyone is gathered for help. As they arrived, and to their shock, about half of the ponies are on the ground, even some of the rescue team too. Thankfully, some of the medics were are awake before they wake. Gradually, they are waking up one by one, that gave the girls some relief as they check up on everyone. But as for Jyro, he wasn't. He didn't take a step closer, all he did is just sit at the spot he was standing, away from everyone. "*sigh* Good. Thank Celestia everypony is alright." said Twilight, "I was so worried that Spike might have been taken, but he's alright. Except, when he got hit from that energy, he was also knocked out. But, he's fine, now sleeping." After she came back to the fields from the library and taken care and organize some things for the ponies, she then searches for the human to check upon, but he wasn't around. After looking around searching for her friend, she finally spot him downhill, away from everyone, sitting alone, head hanging down. She began to walk down to see what's wrong and talk to him. "Jyro? Are you okay?" she asked, worriedly. "I..... I-I'm... sorry." he muttered, which Twilight was unable to hear what he just said. "What?" "I'm.... sorry." he said, now audible. "Sorry? Sorry for what?" she asked, as he looked up with a somber expression on his face. "You, the girls, Spike, and everyone else. I let the Timberwolves invade the town, and because of me. I got careless when we first met, I should've been more aggressive, but they happen got a few drops of blood from me and the reason why that... monster appeared." Twilight was shocked to hear of how that one Timberwolf was so monstrous, "I now know why they attacked, it's because they want me, they want my blood to grow stronger, and wanting to slaughter all of you... Not only that, you told me that that while I was... sorta unconscious, I unleashed some sort of magical energy that supposedly knocked you and the girls out, but instead, it spread across the entire land. And now look,... I hurt everyone,... and I... didn't mean to..." he finished. Twilight was surprised of how he felt that this entire event happen because of him. She then walked closer and sat next to him. "Hey. It's not your fault." she said, softly, "You have no knowledge of what those wolves could do or what they are capable of, and no idea that they want your blood to grow even more fearsome. Also, you have no control over of what just happen of how your body unleashed that much magic. I have a theory that you were not in control when you were unconscious. So technically, it's not your fault." "Yeah. But, what do they think?" he said, pointing a thumb at them, "I was suppose to give an example to what I am as a human, but with something like this happens,... who knows what they will say." Twilight was about to say, but stopped as he gave a good point. She now thinks of a way to help, but someone spoke. "E-excuse me, Mister" the human and Twilight looked back and see the little brown colt who apparently was saved from the burning building recently, "I-I wanted to say thank you,... for saving me." Jyro smiled a little. "It was no problem, kid. All burns aside, but I'm glad you and your mom are safe." he said, until he slowly frowned, "And,... I'm sorry that you and everyone got hit by that... explosion-magic-wind-thingy. It might have been the reason how you and your mom were... asleep after that." he explained in a best way for the little colt to understand. "It's okay. At least everyone here are still okay, and from what I've heard, nopony is hurt because of that." the colt said, trying to enlighten the human. "Yeah,... but-" "And also, I feel really really great!" the human's head jerked and gave a questioning look. "R-really?" "Yeah! I don't know why but, I feel that I could run outside and play all day! Also, play some of my games too..." he muttered at the last part. "I-I thought I hurt you all..." "On the contrary, you did not." to the human's surprise, Silver Shade has arrived. "Silver Shade!" he right himself as he nervously explain to her, (And remembering, who she works for) "Hey, um... about that... explosion..." "What? That surprisingly scary explosion? The one that put us ponies into temporary sleep, and has healed them from today's injuries?" Jyro was taken aback of what she said about the ponies, "I am very surprised, Mr. Jyro. You have shown me what a human is really capable of, despite your reckless nature. You sacrifice your own body to keep ponies out of harms way, and you kept going until you drove the Timberwolves away." he thought to himself, doing it all to save everyone in town, "And forget about being judged upon, you've already proven that to 'them'." she pointed behind him, as he turned and saw all the ponies, giving him smiles of appreciation. Jyro, slowly stood up as he looked over the crowd, he saw the little brown colt he saved now next to his mother. He sighed, knowing he was over his head of doubt that they would deny him. "... Thank you... for accepting me you guys." he said, smiling. "FREE CHEERS FOR OUR... HAIRLESS MONKEY HERO!!!" One pony shouted, as that comment made Jyro feel like he's been smacked at the back of the head. Until he shook off seeing the ponies are about to cheer. "Bro.!" he said quickly, "I'm not a monkey! I'm called a human! And a warning, I find that being called monkey is, offensive." "... oh. Sorry." he said, while smiling sheepishly. "It's cool." he waved off. "Hey! You know what this really calls for!?" said Pinkie, "A Party Celebration to our Hero!" "Hey! I know what he should be called?" said one mare pony, as some looked at her, "He should be called, 'The Human Hero'!" after she said the name, many heard and take a liking to their new hero's nickname. "Yeah! I like that one!" another pony said. "FREE CHEERS FOR THE HUMAN HERO!" shouted the same pony, that cheered before. And the entire ponies are now cheering his new name. "HUMAN, HERO, HUMAN, HERO, HUMAN, HERO!" they cheered and jumped happily around the human. "You see?" said Twilight, "You have nothing to worry about being denied. Hay! You've been called a hero for pony sakes!" the human looked around seeing everypony cheering for his heroism, "Don't ever doubt yourself too much, Jyro. We are here for you," then Twilight starts to blush, "I'm... here for you." the human looked at her, and smiled. "... Thank you, Twilight." he said as he pulled her in for a hug, as she hugged back. "Leeeeeeeet's CELEBRATE!!!" Pinkie shouted, but stopped as she realized the town was out of shape, (again...) "Riiiight after we clean up." she said as everyone nodded. And so, Jyro now being called, 'The Human Hero', has saved the town Ponyville and receiving praise from the towns folk as they now travel back in town and start rebuilding. Some of the ponies groan as they had to reconstruct everything again. Some others went back to the station to tell the rest of the ponyfolk that it is safe for everyone to return. As for Jyro, he needed some well deserved rest at their local hospital, (which hardly anything was touched from there) now checked and bandaged up. All of the girls and Silver Shade, wait for their friend to come out, as minutes passed, they finally get to see him. "Feeling better?" asked Silver Shade. "Yeah. They patched me up really good. Except, for the soreness, that one is going down a bit." he said, as he rubbed his shoulders, "But, I'm fine." he then looked at the girls with a smile on his face, "Thank you all, for standing with me. I never known you guys were determined to be at my side when things get rough. I'm not sure what else to say." "It was no problem, Big Guy! We never leave you hanging. Plus, you were, SOO. AWESOME!! when you beat up those Timberwolves with a baseball bat!" said Rainbow, rubbing his head. "Yeah! After we clean up, I'll throw a huuuuge party just for you!" said Pinkie, who vame from behind. "That was very risky that you sacrificed yourself to get me, my sister, and the rest of the ponies out of the forest. More importantly, you are still alive, and I'm... greatful for what you did." smiled Rarity. "Ta' be honest, never in my life has anypony do somethin' dumb and reckless." said Applejack, as Jyro shrugged her comment, "But, you have my up most respect for what you've done, partner, and I thank you." she smiled. Suddenly, Jyro felt something tapping his leg and sees Fluttershy. "Um... I want to thank you,... f-for saving me, a-and for having my hopes up... when I was in doubt." she said softly, as he pet her mane. "I'm glad." he smiled. "Jyro?" called Twilight, as he turned to her, "... Thank you. Not only you saved our home, but you also saved my best friends. I am truly grateful." she smiled, as Jyro smiled back. "GROUP HUG!!!" shouted Pinkie as all,besides Silver Shade, are in one big embrace. For Jyro, it was painful, beacause of his soreness, but on the same time, it felt nice. *GROWL* "EEEP!!" screamed Fluttershy, as she jumped out of the hug, "What was that!?" "Hehe. Sorry. I guess I'm pretty hungry right now." said Jyro, as he scratched his head in embarrassment. "Say! Why don't you rest up at my place?" said Twilight, "Spike, is making pasta." "Sounds good!" he turned to Silver Shade, "Would you like to join us?" "Tempting, but I must check the town and help some of their buildings. You go on then, you deserve your rest." "Hmm... Oh well. Thanks!" he said as she nodded and left, then he turned back to his friends, "Let's go!" As our heroes walked to the library with well deserved rest and meals waiting for them, Jyro now called, The Human Hero, now has proven that he might have what it takes to save everyone in Equestria. As in the future, he will grow strong alongside with his friends as they continue their adventures. Stop Music. ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Meanwhile... ... Location: Unknown "So.
