My friend, TheLogoliner, has an awesome story. Check it out. Chapter 16: Party I walked into Sugarcube Corner, and the lights were off. I smirked and had an idea. As fast as I could, I flew upstairs, and nopony could hear me. The lights turned on and I heard them all yell, "SURPRISE!...What?" I heard Pinkie Pie walk up to Derpy and ask, "Where is Stargazer?" I slightly flew, being very quiet, as everypony stared at Derpy, looking for answers. Even Vinyl Scratch walked away from her DJ station, and that is exactly what I wanted. I turned the speaker on full blast and started blaring the music. Everyony turned around, startled at the music, and I only yelled. "So, are you just going to stand all night or what?" Everypony started laughing and dancing, but Pinkie Pie was freaked out. I walked up to her. "What's wrong?" She shook her head and smiled. "Nothing. It's just... how did you do that?" "You're not the only impossible one around here." "Also, thanks for bringing me back to life." She said. I turned back around. "Why were you killing ponies? Why did you take advantage of my friend's hate to make him kill you, and then nearly kill me? Why did you make my friend's life nearly miserable?" I asked repeatedly. She stopped and stared. She looked down, obviously full of regret. "I-I don't even know. The question is, why did you save me after all of that?" She asked. "Because I betrayed someone before. I had made that one person so sad at what I did, but he just stayed there, with me. After all I had done, he still trusted me. That feeling of joy I had after all I had done, that feeling that someone still cares about you, it was great. I want everypony else to feel that way. Now come on. This is a party isn't it?" She perked up and went over to the dance floor. (That sucked.) You think everything sucks. (Not this party.) Fuck you. I then saw Bumble approach the stage, microphone in hand, and Vinyl turned off the music. "I want to sing a song dedicated to my best friend, Stargazer, and my marefriend, Rainbow Dash." He announced. I looked over at Rainbow Dash, who was smiling, and had a noticeably large stomach. Wait, she's pregnant? (Oh boy.) {What a coincidence.} [Not really.] (This song had better be good.) ________________________________________________________________________________________________ Changing songs. Please stand by... ________________________________________________________________________________________________ You see me soaring through the sky, I see you below as you walk on by. I could clear the sky in 10 second flat, Well how about that? Well how about that? I could be sitting here on a cloud, watching the sun as it starts to go down. The only thing missing, is you by my side! Give me a smidge of confidence. Give me a speck of something that makes sense. Give me an idea of dependency. Give me a dash of loyalty! I could save my lonely soul for you! But the feeling in my heart can't follow through. You can give your broken heart to me, cause you know that i'll stay with you, that's why they call me loyalty! The sun shines bright, yet the rain pours on. Rainbows here one minute, and then they're gone. They remind me of me and you. What did you do? What did i do? Determination in those eyes. Where has it gone? Has it said goodbye? A lot has happened, but i'll stay by your side! Give me a smidge of confidence. Give me a speck of something that makes sense. Give me an idea of dependency. Give me a dash of loyalty! I could save my lonely soul for you! But the feeling in my heart can't follow through. You can give your broken heart to me, cause you know that i'll stay with you, That's why they call me loyalty! Time stands still when you're with me. How can i make you see? Your crazy antics make me want to scream. Your name so loud till my throat starts to bleed! I could save my lonely soul for you. But the feeling in my heart can't follow through. You can give your broken heart to me, cause you know that i'll stay with you, That's why they call me loyalty! I could save my lonely soul for you! But the feeling in my heart can't follow through. You can give your broken heart to me, cause you know that i'll stay with you, That's why they call me loyalty! I could save my lonely soul for you! But the feeling in my heart can't follow through. You can give your broken heart to me, cause you know that i'll stay with you, That's why they call me loyalty! The song ended, and everypony cheered, especially me. (What?! That wasn't even dedicated to us!) {Yes it was. Think about it. Stargazer didn't abandon Bumble after he killed Pinkie Pie, and nearly tried to kill Stargazer twice. Thus, making him loyal.} (Fine.) Ready for another trip, Stargazer? The black flames were forming yet again at my hooves. Not this time! I ran over to a wall and started smashing my head into it, hearing an "ow" every time I hit the wall. The flames started to cease, but weren't gone. "Get...Out...Of...My...Head!" I yelled in between smashes against the wall. The flames below disappeared, and a black pegasus with red eyes formed in front of me. I turned to see him, but was dizzy and disoriented. He punched me, sendin me flying trough a window. He jumped out and pinned me to the ground. "You are definitely starting to annoy me!" It yelled. It started chocking me to the point where I couldn't even see. I heard a loud THWANG! and I could breath. I was taking in heavy breaths of air, and looked up. There was a white pegasus with yellow stripes, and he had a black and red mane and tail. He was noticeably older than me, by about a few years or so. He was also a badass fighter, picking up the black pegasus and smashing him into walls. Even when he tried to get back up and grabbed him by the neck in an attempt to choke him, he would headbutt him, making him fall right back down. After a while, the dark pegasus accepted defeat, and disappeared into the shadows. The white pegasus walked over and helped me up. "Hi there. My name is Lightning Streak, but you can call me lightning." He said. "Thanks Lightning, you are one badass fighter." I replied. He chuckled. "Are you hurt?" He asked. "Oh, it takes more than a punch through a window to hurt me." I replied. "Well, there is a party inside, waiting for you. If you want to hang out sometime, I live on the other side of that mountain over there." He pointed towards the mountain, and I nodded. We walked back in where the body was, and Derpy ran over. "Are you hurt? What happened?" I lightly pushed her away. "Nothing happened, Lightning Streak over here saved me. So, if there won't be anymore interruptions, let's continue the party." After that, everypony went back to the party and, to my surprise, I wasn't getting attacked for the rest of the night. After the party, I went home, fell in my bed, very exhausted, and drifted to sleep.
