Falling Stars

Chapter 16: Pit's Revenge

"Honey, I'm home" I said upon entering the cottage. As I looked inside though I saw that the living room was trashed. I was worried so I began searching the house frantically for Fluttershy. As I looked in her bedroom I saw a small white rabbit on the floor, bleeding.
"Angel!" The rabbit looked at me as I rushed to him. "Don't worry, I got you" I flew him to the bathroom and grabbed the first aid kit.
A few minutes later I had the rabbit wrapped up. When he opened his eyes I asked him "Where's Flutters" he pointed to the dresser upon which was a note. I picked it up and began reading:
"Dear Falling Star,
If you are reading this it means that you were in fact living at the same house as that mare and I was right. It also means that you are looking for that mare. Well you can stop because I have her now and if you ever want you to see her again, meet me in the Everfree Forest at midnight and we will fight. Come alone on time or we will kill her and you don't want that, do you?
Signed-Cherry Pit"
As soon as i finished reading I looked at the clock. 11:55. I then flew out of the open window, Tartarus bent on making Pit pay.
Later in the Everfree Forest
I landed in a clearing and waited the next two minutes for Pit and whoever he was gonna bring with him. I stood there with rage, fury, and aggression boiling me to the core.
Finally Pit arrived with five other ponies, two of which were holding Fluttershy hostage. "Well well well" said Pit "So you came for your girl did you"
My patience was wearing thin. "What do you want Pit" I asked
He laughed "Isn't it obvious" he stepped closer to me until he was right in my face "I want revenge" he then punched me harder than I expected "Revenge for embarrassing me in front of all of Ponyville, revenge for making me lose my job, and revenge for destroying my pride"
He then nodded to his gang "Kill him" I stood up before they came at me. Pit then glared at me "If you fight back, we'll kill her instead"
Just then I looked at Flutters. She had a look of fear in her eyes that made me forget all of my anger. I then lowered my stance and said "Go ahead"
One member of the gang charged at me getting ready to punch. I looked at him and prepared for impact.
Just then I heard a familiar voice in the sky. "Look out below" The gang looked around while I side stepped. The pony that was charging earlier was then hit by none other than Rainbow Dash.
"Don't ever mess with my friends" she said as the rest of the girls came out of the woods.
"I told you to come alone" Pit stated as I glared at him knowing what he was about to do. He nodded to the gang members hold Fluttershy "You know what to do"
They drew their blades and prepared to stab her, but they were stopped by a purple aura surrounding them. They were then levitated and thrown aside releasing Fluttershy who ran to her friends.
"There now that it's fair" I said as I flew at blinding speeds to knockout the gang members. I then stopped in front of Pit.
I then Punched Pit with more power than I knew I had, knocking him clear into a tree. He staggered as i approached him until I was right in his face. "And don't ever mess with me or my friends again"
Pit then looked at me with fear in his eyes as he proceeded to run in the opposite direction of Ponyville. His gang soon followed.
The girls cheered for my victory as I approached them. I then walked up to Flutters and asked "Are you ok?"
She nodded and hugged me as she began to cry. "I was so scared, I was feeding the animals and then these *sniff* these two stallions barged in and *hic* started trashing the place so I hid under the bed. Angel tried to make them go away but was knocked into a wall, so I rushed to him, but one of them grabbed me and took me away."
I placed a hoof on her back and began stroking her mane quietly shushing her and calming her down. "Let's go home, ok" She nodded as we all headed back to Ponyville.
