The Story of 'Mutey'


Chapter Two: Ever Free.

Glad some ponies like it! *flutteryay*(Edit: only dislikes :(. but I meant the commenters :D)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Etc made it about two yards before his wings gave out and he began to plummet towards the ground. As the ground approached, he desperately attempted to pull out of the dive, accidentally stabbing one of his hooves with the katana strapped to his back. Why don't I have a sheath for that thing? And WHY CAN'T I FLY?! As these thoughts rushed through his head, he attempted to scream, failing miserably. Just before he hit the ground, a cloud floated under him, and he landed on it. Wait, I'm on a cloud? Etc looked up at where he had fallen, noticing that it was a cloud too, albeit in the shape of a house. I suppose that makes sense. He winced at the stab wound on his hoof, knowing that he wasn't going to die. At least, not yet. Funny how I've come to refer to them as hooves... He mused, chuckling silently under his breath. As he cleaned and bandaged the stab wound, he noted that the cloud was floating towards a forest.

Rainbow Dash

As the strange pegasus flew off, she watched him make a few yards and then suddenly drop out of of the sky, disappearing from view. Dash's eyes went wide, and she galloped to the edge of her house. "I hope he's okay..." she muttered under her breath. Dash knew how much broken wings could hurt, ever since the crash about a year ago. She watched him get stabbed by that giant knife stuck on his back, and land on a stray cloud heading towards the Everfree forest... Wait, the Everfree?! Without a word, she shot off after him, leaving a technicolored streak behind her, fading slightly as she moved farther away. He is having some bad luck today, she thought as she zoomed through the air.

Etc

Something about the forest seemed off to Etc. Maybe it was the trees, or the clouds that seemed to hang over it ominously, but something was definitely strange about it, but he couldn't quite put his finger-hoof?- on it. A shout ripped Etc from his thoughts, and he turned his head. The same rainbow-maned pegasus from earlier was shooting towards him, shouting something unintelligible at him. As Etc tried to decode what she was screaming at him, the cloud dissolved under his feet, right over the strange forest. ...sh*t.
