Maia Baterra didn't have an easy life. Being a bat-pony, she was the victim of much ridicule and cruel judgement. She was accused of being a vampony, a bloodsucker of the night, as well as a demon from the pits of Tartarus, among other things.
She didn't think she'd ever find acceptance.
Until that one night, when she was cornered by a couple of low-life thugs. They were intent on raping her. Then he came along. He saved her life. He took her somewhere safe, and looked after her.
He was unlike other ponies. He walked on two legs, not four. The legs he walked on bent forwards, not backwards. He had no cutie mark, and had a strange mark upon his chest. He was as unique as she was different to other ponies.
These differences, in which they find similarities, will bring them together, and together, they will find acceptance and even love in one another, in world that doesn't want them.
- Can abnormality find love and acceptance in a world of normality? If my followers and subscribers can accept me for who I am, and the creature I am, then I believe that even the most unique of us can find that most precious and rarest of treasures in the world.
Love.
Your OC? Oh my...
I like the description a lot,
1,500 i can read right now
post my thoughts in 10 minutes
Fix it
Anywhore I love stories like these; they make me relate to real life situations and make me feel
I just wanna scream "WHATS YOUR PROBLEM!? YOU GONNA MAKE FUN OF HER JUST BECAUSE SHES DIFFERENT!?"
well done
post another chapter soon or i unfollow you... just kidding
Just get a few words slipped to Princess Luna somehow and see how they treat her.
Anyways, great start and I look forward to reading more.
How long are we waiting between chapters? I don't want to sound mean, but I honestly cant stand it when people don't think ahead and all of a sudden they have to stop their story half way. So it would be much appreciated if you could tell us how long it will take to upload each chapter, and if there is anything IRL that might hinder your progress. Thanks

WHOOPSIE!
Better go do that then.
Also thank you for taking the time to read it. Appreciated, friend!

My life is...well, it's not normal, we'll just say. It's complicated, and hard to explain, but let's just say that things tend to happen at random around here.
But if I had to take a guess, then I'd say that I'd update, or TRY to update, one new chapter every week. I have a YouTube channel to maintain and improve, and I also work as a carer, and a bunch of other things in-between, but I will do my best to update once per week.
I fortunately have a pretty good idea how I want the first several chapters to play out, so it shouldn't be too difficult to update sooner, really. I struggle to find the right words to use when attempting serious pieces of writing, as comedy is more my style, so you'll forgive my later writings if they're not up to your expectations. I TRY MY BEST! WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME? (cries like a little bitch and runs into bathroom)

I'm basing the characters on my own personal life experiences. I am different in many ways to other people, and in my earlier years it was hard for me to be accepted for the way that I am, even my family struggled for a while. But i came through in the end because I believed that I had a right to live a life, even if i wasn't normal like the rest of the world.
That is why i chose 'Unique' as my name. Because I, and we, are all unique in our own special ways.
3726375
No, no, that's just the salmon I keep under my armpits.
Something serious... Jeez, didn't expect this. Nice, keep it up.
Or
I will look for you
I will find you
and I will kill you.
PRETTYCOLORS

(Loads his shotgun, just in case)
Great answer and so very true.
3727466
Damn straight. XD
3726222
Just so you know, depending on how this weekend goes, you might be getting Chapter Two sooner than I had planned. Maybe.
Of course, assuming you like what you see here so far, whether or not that matters to you is up to you. XD
3726382 I understand completely
Shit just got real
Can't believe you struggled to find acceptance because your a bat pony
But srsly sorry
3728215
WHAT THE HELL? MY OC'S A PEGASUS THAT WALKS ON TWO LEGS! I'M NOT A MARE! XD
3728621
I do like your poems by the way
very grim
3728633
Don't change the subject, buster!
But thanks for the compliment, though. XD
This was an amzing sceen. Manee D'awwz wer had. Especialee durring teh ra3pAnyway, nice chapter, I wonder who her savior was. I can only guess.
Makes me wonder whom the mysterious stallion was...Well with a white coat it could be either Prince Blueblood (unlikely as it'd be for him to do anything like that), or Shinning Armor (but he'd most likely have a squad of guards with him in tow)...plus neither had pictures shown next to the Original Character icon so I'm guessing he's an original too...
So I guess I saying a whole lot of nothing in retrospect.
3740015
So you're saying this was a waste of your time?
If so, then, well, your fault mate.
If not, then I've no cake what you're muffin about, prickly cactus.
3740009
My sarcasm detectors are off the charts, man!
Oh wait, it's the guy above you, I think. Sorry, Rotorix, my bad. XD
3740030
...but I like muffins...
3740044
YOU DO?
In that case, whether you were hating the story or not, you're okay in my books, mate. You just got a new follower!
3740062 Wasn't hating on your story man--I, quite literally, just said a whole lot of nothing.
Thanks for following me, evening though I haven't written a thing for this site
3740035 textspace.net/img/1388967801_237c2f05_1388967896.gif
3740066
Ah.
Well, I'm an idiot.
XD
3740035 You know, with all your artistic talent, are you planning on making cover art for this story?
3740143 Artistic talent? You sure you talking to the right person there? XD
Hmm...Yes, I will soon. But not this week. My family decided to start House DIY this week, so I'm stuck helping them. I'm making a note right now on my MEMO board to get those fanfics read as soon as I can, and to get other projects finished as well.
DAMN IT THERE'S SO LITTLE TIME! XD
3740264 Well, you draw better than me, so yes. I call that "talent".
That never ends well.
But if you're so busy, why rush everything?
Good chapter, but not enough beating the snot out of those two. And booo, no guards to help beat more them either.
3740689
Yeah, well if you want the 'mysterious pony' beating the shit out of them, I'll go as far as to even animate the scene.
If you think there should be an animation for a beat-up, give this comment a Like. If it reaches 20 Likes, then you'll get your beat-up animation in a few chapters!
Also, I've got an idea of just which pony to beat up as well. (HINT - I'm BLUE(?????) Dab Ba Dee Dab Ba Die)
Think you might have a word wrong in there.
Anyways wee, update. Oh and it was a good chapter.
Oh, it was you OC!? I thought it was going to be Joseph Stalin!
Nice chapter, I have no idea what you're talking about you writing badly.
Liking it. Please update faster! I think I feel some character development a-comin..... So...... AN UPVOTE AND FAVORITE FOR THEE!
4021305 Really? You like it?
Huh...
Well, in that case, once I've finished my current story, I'll do just that then. Thank you, new friend! You've given me purpose in life! XD
Dude, you write better than you think you do. The fault is mine for missing such a well-crafted piece, and misunderstanding what was going on as a result.
Keep doing what you do.
Well, that was actually rather good. Grammar issues, and the authors self depriciation aside.
The plot is intresting, the charactors have depth, there are complimentary poems, and it has a batpony. Yes, very good indeed.
Also, I would be willing to edit future and current chapters for you, if you would like me to.
4085964
Wow. Really?
I should just warn you though - I have gone through life mostly declining the help that others offer me, only ever accepting help when and if I ask for it, or if I feel that I absolutely needed it. Recently, however, I am somewhat getting better at accepting help from others.
I say this only because I do not wish to make you feel as though I am being ignorant or unappreciative should I not respond to any future comments or messages you might send me.
Putting all that aside, though, I would be most grateful for any help you provided. I must, however, decline your service for the time being, as I have recently finally managed to think up a new story after a period of writer's block, so I would like to attempt writing this new one while I still have it in my head.
I wouldn't mind your help with other stories I have and have yet to write, though. I'll admit now that this is going to be my first time actually having help from someone like you, so awkward as it is for me I'll need you to run me through how this 'helping you out' thing works. XD
But I look forward to any assistance you might provide. Here, have a Follower on me. You just earned one.
- UniqueSKD
P.S - Note that I also have a YouTube channel as well, on which I upload animations and random junk. I won't always be doing stories, so keep that in mind. I hope this won't be a problem for you.
Hoo boy! I can't wait for the next chapter!
My only problem isn't even about your story; it's about your Author's Note.
I've never raped or been raped, but I'm positive that it would be harder to write about one of someone was raped...
8484344
Why are you commenting on this story?
8484500
Oh, I'm sorry: Should I have PMed you about the author notes of a story instead of commenting about the author's notes of said story? Also, sarcasm isn't too reliable when you can't hear how someone says it or have a hint to show its sarcasm.
Anyway, nice enough story. A bit of trust building, but not too much and too fast. A bit of action, but only as needed. A nice enough guy for a nice enough gal. There, are you happy now?
8484559
No no no, I was just...just shocked that anyone would look at this old junk, that was all. I mean thank you for reading it, but I didn't think it was worth your time. Or anyone else's. That was why I stopped writing it. That and a habit of self-loathing. Which is pretty evident in a lot of my crappy tales.
8485157
You wanna see horrible writing, I'll break out the tequila and write something dark; otherwise quit putting yourself down or I'll break out the encouragement stick and crack it over your head. Waste of my time? I get kidnapped by a Frenchman every week to edit his WildeHopps fanfics; trust me, time is not one of my concerns.
Personally, this story had more promise in finding out why an anthropomorphic pegasus existed in a quadruple Equestria than in the romance between said anthro-peg and the quad-bat. No human tag, so freak genetics or magical mishap seem most likely.
I'm not one for really sappy, love conquers all, trust building stories; dark, violence, a question to be asked and answered are more substantial reads for me.
8485392
Oh...
I wish you had appeared sooner. You'd have been the one to save my interest in fanfic writing, you would have.
Also, kidnapped by a Frenchman?
8485552
Well, thank you. Hope you're still writing poetry; not enough beauty in the world, in my opinion.
Also, you know that movie Zootopia? Turns out, the fandom is eighty percent Nick and Judy shipping and twenty percent Nick or Judy and OC shipping; most of them call themselves pirates of the WildeHopps Navy and have an affinity for kidnapping each other, their editors, drinking coffee and trying to steal the rights of Zootopia from Disney.
I rather steal Star Wars and demand George Lucas take it back, myself.
8485591
Oh right? That's pretty cool I guess.
I think...maybe? Not quite sure how to properly react to that.
8486102
You rather have Disney own Star Wars!? You Imperial piece of garbage! *angry Wookie noises*
8486235
I don't watch a lot of Star Wars. I don't now how badly Disney has raped your favorite sci-fi fantasy movies, do I? I haven't even seen the new film they have done yet!
