//------------------------------// // Chapter 8 // Story: Anger Management // by itisdoctorwhooves //------------------------------// A/N I’m back! After that long break, I’m ready to finally write again! I hope you enjoy chapter 8! END A/N I looked at himself, each part of him processing through his mind. Talons, check. Horns, check. Wings, check. Oh god, I am actually red… forever! I’ll never be excepted into society… my life is over! I sighed, “Well, it’s the end of the road for me. I’m just going to find a nice cave in a mountain or something.” Blue came up to ma and gave me a hug, “Don’t worry! We’ll get this sorted out. I’m sure your life is going to be better than ever.” I gave him my best smile, “Alright… I trust you.” Deadspring looked at us before saying, “I’m going to get going, I have some work to catch up on.” Blue nodded and smiled, “Thanks… I don’t know what I would do with out you.” Dead walked off without saying a word as I spoke to blue slowly, “We…. Better sort this out. The sooner the better.” Blue nodded, “Allons-Y!” and with that, we walked back to ponyville. As we walked through the outskirts of town we didn’t see a single pony. I was very confused at this, “Why aren’t we seeing anypony else?” “They all are keeping a vigil for you red.” He smiled again, “They trust you.” I smiled, then frowned, “What about Ditzy? What happened to her?” Blue shifted uncomfortably, “I probably should have mentioned this earlier, but Ditzy… joined the New Lunar Republic…” I started at him blankly, “The... New Lunar Republic?” Blue nodded, “I forgot you didn’t know this stuff, It’s been about a year since you… well died. After hearing of your death, Princess Luna broke away from equestria and started the New Lunar Republic. Celestia renamed equestria the Solar Empire and refused to give away any ground. Luna Was furious and started an all out war, which is going on to this day. I have signed up for the NLR army, so that’s where I’m taking you.” I took a long time to respond, taking in all this at once, “Who else came with you to the NLR?” Blue sighed, “RD, and Pinkie Pie. I’ve made some new friends too though, and they all are great. Their names are Rumble Volts, Flair Flicker, Shadow Trance, Black Thorn, Diamond Secret, and Slicer Windstrike.” I nodded, “Lets go, I want to meet them.” Blue nodded as well and took off at top speed, with me flying right along with his hoof steps. As we came to the edge of the Solar Empire, “Well here we are, the New Lunar Republic!” I was about to say something when a group of ponies ran up to blue, “Sir!” Blue nodded, “At ease.” I looked a blue, “Sir? Don’t tell me…” “Yup.” Blue grinned. I sighed, “Alright, I take it these are your new ‘friends’?” Blue nodded as one stepped forward, “Sir, who is this?” Blue looked at the speaker, “This, slicer, is Red.” The pony that was named slicer was wide-eyed, “You mean THE red? As in Red Blood?” I grinned, “so I’m popular. That’s new!” Another pony stepped forward, “It’s an honor to meet you red, I am black torn.” He was all black, even his eyes. The third one stepped forward, “And I am Rumble Volts.” He looked somewhat like rainbow dash except he had a black coat and a shock of white tail and mane. A orange coated red maned Pegasus stepped forwards, “I am Flair flicker.” A dusk grey Pegasus stepped forwards, “And I, shadow.” And last but not least a dusty yellow coated brown maned unicorn stepped forward and bowed, “I am diamond secret.” I greeted each one of them and gave them each a smile, “So, when do I get to meet the wonderful leader of this republic?” Slicer beckoned me to follow him, “This way.” And I followed him without thinking. As we approached a small castle run-down castle he spoke again, “It’s best if we fly over, we don’t want to alert any guards.” I nodded and took flight over the castle, admiring all the shrubbery and statues. We landed right outside a door. I gave Slicer a look and he nodded. I got myself together and opened the door. A/N Sorry, buy I think I’m going to do a lot more short chapters, because I feel like it takes me to long to make long ones. END A/N
