Madness in Equestria: Better Than Dying... Again.

No. 3 - Presentations

Hank was sleeping on Twilight's couch, snoring heavily. Meanwhile Twilight and Spike were with Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie outside the library,Twilight explained the purpose of the random gathering, Because, Twilight never organizes a reunion without previous notification. "Ok. Uh... There's no simple way of putting this... But... I have a trans-dimensional being totally different of what you've ever seen inside the library." Twilight faster than her normal way of speech. "Well. Is this some kind of prank Twilight? 'Cause, you're not making it right." Rainbow Dash said, not falling for what Twilight explained. "No! It's true come in and see!" she said defending her statement. "Ok. Whatever. I'll do it to prove it's a joke" Rainbow said with a shrug. Meanwhile the other ponies remained silent.

When Hank heard the door open his ninja reflexes made him instantly jump on the ceiling and, this time, with a good grip on it. Twilight entered the house with her other three friends behind her, Rainbow hovering just a couple of inches above the ground. "Hank! Hank! Where are you!?" Twilight said calling him. Hank then realized it was her and dropped from above. He obviously gave the ponies the shock of their life. Except Twilight. "Well if knew you will bring company I would have prepared myself. Nah I'm jus' kidding, I would have looked the same" Hank said not caring for the ponies stares. Even Rainbow Dash was staring at him. Keeping her stare she stepped forward and poked him in the leg. "Is he real? Like, really real?" she said, not believing what stood in front of her. "Yes. how much of a prank this is Rainbow Dash?" Twilight said with that 'I told you so' tone. Rarity remained speechless, while Pinkie Pie ran in front of him, a big smile in her face. "Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie! Are you new in here? Of course you are! You're from another world! And since you are new in town, you're gonna have a party! It's going to have everything! From-" but she was cut off by Hank himself. "Oh no way! No fucking way! The last party I crashed at, ended up with every motherfucker in there dead! So, like you don't want me in a party" He ended leaving the mares in the room perplexed. "Did he just said he killed ponies?" Rarity said, horror in her voice. "Um, yeah that's a little detail I forgot. He, like... kills things. But not ponies! Just others from his world." Every one of Twilight's friends looked at Hank with horrified looks. "What? Don't look at me like that. The fuckers deserved it, the are like the worst scum in whole Nevada" he said ignoring the ponies horrified stare.

Minutes later there was still a tense silence in the room. "So. Hmm- said Rarity, trying to star a conversation -I noticed the outfit you are wearing" she said getting closer to Hank. "It's quite out of fashion, it's old and it seems to be stained with something" she said scrubbing one of the stains. "Oh yeah. That' the blood of the bastards I killed. It's dry by now" he said in a relaxed manner. "Beg your pardon? I think I heard you said blood?" Rarity said. "Yeah that's it. Blood" Hank repeated. Rarity looked down at her hoof with a horrified face and ran away screaming to the bathroom. Everyone in the room looked at him. "What? Was it something I said?" he said with a shrug.

After a while of sitting in silence, obviously, Pinkie broke the silence. "Hey about the party, it's gonna be really fun! with-" Hank spoke in a low tone under Pinkie's constant stream of words. "Please. Kill me. Now". He then pointed his gun discretely at Pinkie Pie. Twilight gave him a look of disapproval. He pointed his gun at his head. Look of disapproval again. "Ugh... God. Kill me" he said again in a more annoyed tone.

Minutes after, that seemed to be hours to Hank, Pinkie kept talking. He started to be more annoyed, and more and more to the point he was extremely angered. "Get away of me you freak!" He yelled pushing the pink mare away. "I don't want to go to your fucking party! Honestly, just listening to you makes me think suicide is a good choice! Just shut up and stay away from me!" He yelled to her. He made Pinkie cry. Something that lots thought it was impossible. But he did it. "Just. Go away!" He finished screaming at Pinkie's face. She ran out of the library crying. Hank sat down again on the couch. "What was that! How could you yell at her like that! She can be annoying sometimes, but it's nothing to react like that!" Twilight scolded. "Leave. Go upstairs and think about what you did." She said angrily. "Yeah, whatever. She was looking for it anyway" Hank said walking up the stairs. Rarity came walking out of the bathroom looking at her hoof. "Did I missed anything important?" Both Rainbow Dash and Twilight gave her a stare. "Then I think I'll get going" She said walking quickly to the door. "I think I need to have a little talk with your friend tomorrow Twilight" Rainbow said flying out the door.

Hank was lying in the bed sunken in his thoughts. Why should i apologize? She was looking for it! he thought. Twilight came upstairs, anger noticeable on her face. "Hank, what you did down there was just plain bad. Tomorrow I will get Pinkie here and you'll apologize with her" Twilight scolded. "Ugh... If I do it you won't completely annoy me with this subject?" He asked. "No I won't, but you have to apologize sincerely" she said. "OK. But you better keep your promise" Hank said. He then went to sleep and hoped the next day wasn't filled with so much strange happenings.

During the night Twilight got up from her bed and went to Hank's bed. I wonder what's under his mask. She approached her hoof to his face but she was interrupted. "Don't. Believe me. You don't wanna see what's under there" Hank said. Twilight then realized that he had opened his eyes. "Ok. I'll leave you to sleep" Twilight said with an awkward grin. "You'll see when you're ready" Hank said to her before resuming his sleep.


Meanwhile somewhere in Nevada

"Hey Sanford... can you come over here a minute?" Deimos asked his loyal partner. "What is it?" Sanford replied walking getting next to his friend. "Take a look at this -he gestured at the screen of a computer- Hank is nowhere in Nevada! Not even in the planet!" He said sounding worried. "So he's dead? Aw fuck!" Sanford said. "No... that's the weird part. If he was dead his transmitter will have a signal and he'll appear in the screen anyway. No, he's not dead. He might have traveled to another planet. Hell, even another universe" Deimos explained. "Where the fuck is he now then?" Sanford said to no one.


Back in Equestria

Hank woke up the next morning but didn't came out of the bed. He was just laying there, thinking about what happened yesterday. But then he heard Twilight calling him. "Hank! Come down here a moment" She yelled. Hank just got his pants, his boots and his mask and headed down the stairs. "What is it?" Then he realized Pinkie was there. "Ugh... Let's get over with this ok" he said sounding annoyed. He approached Pinkie that, when she saw him, turned around not looking at him. "I can't believe that I'm actually doing this" He knelled down at Pinkie's level. "Ok Pinkie, you see, I'm sorry for what I did yesterday. I know I didn't have to yell at you, but I'm not the most patient man in my universe. I know I could reacted in a different way. So what do you say? No hard feelings?" He said putting his hand in her shoulder. Pinkie just stood there thinking. She hesitated, but turned around. Her eyes became wet and she hugged Hank. "O-Ok Pinkie. Tha-That's enough" He said awkwardly. She just hugged him tighter. "I forgive you. I knew you could be good" Pinkie said. "You are warm. That feels funny" she continued. "Yeah. Just because I'm a cold blooded killer doesn't actually means I have cold blood" and that way Hank ruined the moment. They remained silent for a few seconds until Pinkie, as usual, broke the silence. "Now we can make you a party! We'll invite everypony and-" She was interrupted by Twilight. "Pinkie we can't invite everypony. Nopony is supposed to know that Hank's here!" she explained. "Oh. Well... We'll Invite Applejack and Rarity and-" She was interrupted again, this time, by Hank. "Yeah I get it" he said a little bit annoyed. "Yes Pinkie, we can make the party tonight at the library" Twilight said to her. Pinkie ran out the door and left Hank and Twilight alone. They were silent a couple of minutes and then

Twilight spoke up. "So... Why you have all those bandages in your body?" she asked. "Same purpose as in my face only that nastier" he replied. "Oh Celestia" was all that Twilight said.
