Dear Diary,

My sister Rarity got me this diary so I decided to use it. She has been acting strange ever since the incident with our home. Something is up and it is up to me and the rest of The Cutie Mark Crusaders to find out. I just hope Rarity is feeling better though.

Dear Diary,

Button Mash joined with us in The Cutie Mark Crusaders, he doesn't really care his mom just says he has to make more friends and go outside more.

Dear Diary,

Today I saw Rarity yell at a mare today. I'm beginning to become afraid of her.

Dear Diary,

I'm scared. Rarity told me I had five minutes to pack my stuff and leave Ponyvillie. I am hearing a lot of screaming outside. I hadn't had much time to write this so I wrote quickly. I looked out the window and saw more houses on fire, it made me cry. All those ponies. I don't want to find out what's going on, but I think I am about to find out. I actually feel sorry for Rarity though. She left me with Twilight and I brought a whole bunch of stuff. All Rarity has left is her glasses. I'm worried she is getting sick.

Dear Diary,

Rarity has been getting cold, today she yelled at me which made me cry again. It's like she is mad at every pony. We left Ponyvillie along with others. I just don't get it, every other pony is sad, but Rarity seems frustrated.

One week earlier

"Sweetie Belle you must hurry up, the train will leave In one hour." Said Rarity to her little sister. Still no response. Sweetie Belle has been up in her room for almost two hours. Yet it took her this long to pack her bags. Finally Sweetie Belle came down the stairs with 3 bags, and a stuffed doll Rarity made for her a few months ago. It was nothing but a bear, but if you told that to Sweetie Belle she would say something like, "No it's a trophy," or,"it's a gift from a very great mare." Sure she went over board when somepony made fun of it, but it is just another souvenir to show how much she appreciates her sister.

Rarity sighed in relief that she was finally ready. "Well you took your time. Why did it take you so long to pack?" She said as her and Sweetie Belle walked out the door.

"I couldn't figure out what to bring. So I just looked for some of my favorite toys." She replied while looking at her big sister.

Rarity stared back and said,"Your toothbrush?"

"Got it!" She replied again. Rarity was walkingas if she was on ice. She tried to keep her stance, which was the only thing keeping Sweetie Belle from noticing. Since the incendent last week it has been harder for Rarity to get around. Everypony in Ponyvillie knew what happened except for Sweetie Belle. She asked them all for if they where talking about it, stop talking about so Sweetie Belle doesn't know.

That didn't matter right now though. She had to focused on getting to Twilight's house who promised to watch over Sweetie Belle while Rarity goes on a vacation. Left hoof right hoof left Hoof right hoof. Come on Rarity, keep good posture, don't slouch, walk straight, keep from falling. Quiet being so dizzy. She thought. Finally she wasn't so dizzy anymore and could walk normal again. The library was in sight, all she had to do was make it there with hope she doesn't get dizzy again. Few more steps, few more steps... There! They had finally arrived.

Rarity knocked on the door with her hoof and heard a quick rustle. A few seconds later Twilight Sparkle, Princess Celestia's student, the Element of Magic, the new princess opened the door. She smiled at the sight of seeing the purple mare once again. She never got tired of seeing all her friends faces. Pinkie Pie was a big party animal that will throw a party now matter what you do. Once Applejack ate three buckets of apples during a bet with Rainbow dash, to celebrate her victory she threw a party. Rainbow Dash just seemed more of a jock than a mare. Applejack was a hardworker who would never quit at her job no matter what she did. Fluttershy was basically always scarder than a mouse is. Every little noise would make her jump. Twilight was a book worm that became Princess Celestia's student when she was a filly, and Rarity well, she liked fashion.

Twilight than said,"Hello you two, Sweetie Belle you ready?" Sweetie Belle than nodded at the purple mare that would be taking care of her for the week. She went inside and set her stuff down than sat down in a chair.

Twilight than turned to Rarity and spoke,"You sure you can get around, you know since the "incident" last week?"

Rarity smiled as she replied,"Relax darling, I will just be in Manehattan for no more than a week, but I'm concerned for you. Sweetie Belle can be a bit of a trouble maker sometimes. You sure you can handle her?"

"I'm sure I can handle her," she answered,"Infact I decided to let her friends stay the night too so I'm sure she isn't too upset that you are leaving."

Rarity gasped than whispered," Do they know?"

Twilight rolled her eyes playfully,"relax, I made them promise not to say anything. Now go you are going to miss the train." Twilight said before shooing Rarity and closing the door.

Rarity got a watch out of her saddle bag with her magic and flipped it open. She was right, ten minutes till the train leaves. She immeditally made a dash for it while at the same time muttering in her head,"Late late late I'm late. That was before she realized she was going the wrong way. Lucky she only wasted a minute. She than turned around and ran the other direction, the right direction.

It took five minutes to get there with only four minutes to spare. She didn't heisitat, she bought a ticket and jumped on the train. Why she didn't have bags full of stuff was actually one of the reasons why she was here. To relax. That's all she wanted to do is relax. She found a seat next to a gray stallion reading a newspaper. He had long white hair tied back in a ponytail. He also had yellow brownish eyes. She couldn't see his cutie mark though cause of his long mane.

"Hello sir," she said,"mine if I sit here?" He didn't say anything. He just snarled and scooted a little so she could sit.

She turned to him and said,"Why thank you darling, so would you mine telling me why you are here?"

The stallion sighed and muttered,"Family reunion."

Rarity jumped in on that,"I am going to go see an art show tomorrow. Than I will spend the rest of the week do basically anything." The stallion put down the newspaper, got up, and left to a different cart.

Rarity sighed and lyed down on the now empty seat. The art show she was going to was actaully an inventation to the grand opening of The Manehatten national museum art exhibit. The only problem was that Prince Blue blood would be hosting it. As long as Rarity kept her distances from him though, everything would be alright, and after what happened at The Grand Galloping Gala he was for sure going to keep his distance too.

The train stopped in Manehatten an hour before dark. She boarded off and went in the direction of the motel she would be staying in. She would of gone to a hotel, but she wanted to try new things. New things where always on her mind. Before she could think of anything else she noticed a store that seemed to catch her interest. A book store. She did promise to get Sweetie Belle something during her stay here. Why not a diary. The only diary she has ever written in is the one that Twilight found in the castle Princess Celestia use to live in. That wasn't even a private diary.

Rarity walked in the book store and heard the bell ring when she opened the door. Ding ding. The same noise she heard whenever so pony came in to buy a dress. Rarity started to look around and only saw books Twilight might want. Maybe she was In the wrong place? As she turned back to walk outside the door, there! She saw it. A book with a locket on it. It was rusted but it will have to do. She picked the book up with her magic and flipped it open. As expected all the pages where blank. She walked to the counter and placed the book on it. An elder stallion walked up to it and said,"Ah, that was our only one in stock. You where lucky that nopony else got it before you did. Hang on let me get the key." He left the counter and went in back. A few seconds later he came back with a rusted old key to match the rusted old lock. "Twenty bits," he said. Rarity threw in a little extra per tips and said a quick thank you before taking the booking and leaving. Before she could though he said one more thing."Ma'am. That book you got there could be the book of your life. Use words wisely for they are limited." Rarity didn't get but jsit said am ok and left to the motel.

It took thirty minutes to get there. Yet it felt like she wasn't wasting any time. She walked in and spoke to a mare at a desk. "Yes, I made a reservation, I am Rarity." The mare looked up but didn't say anything. Instead she just got a pair of keys and hoofed them to Rarity. She walked past the mare while still starring at her, than walked quickly. She looked at the number on the key which was room 14. It didn't take her that long to find it. She immediatlly spotted it and walked. She gasp in surprise when she turned the corner though. There standing in front of the room next too hers was the same stallion she saw on the train.

She didn't hesitant. She called him and waved. The stallion groaned at the sight of her. Rarity walked up to him and said,"Hello darling do you remember me?"

The stallion just stood there looking at her. All he said was "yes" than went in his room. Rarity sighed again. There she was trying to make a new friend when all she has to do is relax. She unlocked her door with the keys the mare at the counter gave her and it opened. For a small motel her room was quit beautiful. She sat two bags against the wall. It was all she brought. Ever since "that day" everything has been hard for her. She lyed down on the bed in the room as she remembered what the elder stallion had told her back at the bookstore. "Use words wisly, for they are limited."

The Artshow

View Online

Rarity awoke on a cot she has been sleeping on for weeks. She wouldn't get up though. Everyday she woke up she just stared at the ceiling of the cottage she was in and just thought why. Why why why. She sometimes awoke with tears on her face from a previous nightmare. They where after me. So why hurt all those ponies? She thought. Rarity stared at what was left of her belongings. Her glasses. That was all she had left. So no matter what she kept it safe.

She figured she would have to get up sometime soon. She left the cottage just as breakfest was being served. Eggs again. As always Sweetie Belle was writing in the diary Rarity got her. She doesn't even bother looking up. She wondered what kind of stuff a filly like her would be writing in that journal. She didn't care. She walked to Fluttershy the one serving break feast, and got a plate. As it became her turn to get the food she saw another one of them in the forest. They really needed a safer place to live. She immeditly dropped her plate just as Fluttershy was about to give her her food. Every pony was staring. They knew what was coming, but they weren't scared of them. They where scared of her. Rarity walked towards the forest and picked up a shovel to use as a weapon. Not much of a choice but it will have to do. He didn't notice her. This gave Rarity a chance. She snuck up behind him and raised the shovel high over her head.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

This was it. Rarity was in the front of the Manehattan National Museum. Unfortunally she didn't bring anything to wear counting the fact that she could only make the trip with two bags. She walked up to the double doors and opened one. Inside there where several ponies waiting to see the new exhibit. She made her way past them too the front and saw Prince Blue Blood making the annoucment. After a long speech which Rarity found boring and abnouches, he finally cut the ribbon.several ponies piled in the new room. She gazed at all of the beautiful art. Never before has she seen such masterpieces.

Other than the fact the he he was here, she was having a good time. Until she ran into Blue Blood. Blue Blood gave a grimance smile on his face. She knew he was planning somthing. Rarity didn't see it though. She was even staring at him. "Hello." He said. She didn't look. Instead she just kept on walking. He followed. She walked he followed, she walked he followed! That was all he did was follow her. Finally she brought him into a corner and whispered to him,"Are you some kind of idiot!? I'm just here to in joy myself nothing else." He just sat there with a faded smile,"What? I can't give you a second chance? I thought you where more better than that." She scoffed,"You are nothing but an animal in the wild. I should be the one giving you a second chance! But unfortaunly I won't. You know why? Cause your a lunatic for a prince that's why."

"Whoa harsh words from sompony like you. Well than again it is coming from a bitch." Rarity had it. She slapped the stallion right across the face. He put a hoof up to where she left a mark than slapped her back. She lost it she tackeled him down but just as she did a few body guards grabbed her. Blue Blood got up and said,"These are a few buddies of mine I hired to get revenge on you. I was waiting for a little while longer to send them in but now was a good time. Do what ever you want to her. I will be paying you three extra to keep your mouths shut about this. And as for you," he pointed at Rarity who now had a bloody muzzle," one word to the princess about this or too anypony else, I will hire triple times the number of the ones there all now. And it won't be only once, it will be for the rest. Of your life. Celestia wouldn't be able to keep you in protective custody forever. It just takes one stupid mistake to screw everything up." Rarity was now almost litterally staring daggers at him. She than spoke,"I beileive you already have." Blue Blood smiled and said,"Well I don't want to keep the ponies waiting. See you later, and yes I mean later. This bussnuess is not yet finished. I have sorces that tell me that you are staying a week here, so might as well have fun doing it. Goodbye." Than he left to the ponies who haven't even the slightest concern that there are a bunch of noises coming from her direction that may be a problem. They knocked her out and brought her to a carriage out back. It had a cover over it so nopony could know what's happening.

She awoke amongst an hour later against traffic. She was scared, but at the same time angry. They finally pulled up in front of a building. They uncovered the carriage and Rarity noticed she was right behind the motel. They knew where she was staying. The ponies opened the back door taking a whiled guess that it was. She knew she forgot something when she left. She locked neither doors. She than asked,"What are you going to do with me?" One of the ponies looked at her and answered."We're going to have some fun. Than we are going to beat your ass and have some more fun. As long as you cooperate this will all be over very quick." He than grabbed her as Rarity screamed and fought back. He slammed her head against the wall and her face to the floor. Her muzzle was bleeding again, but she contiued to scream. She than thought of somthing,"I can pay you twice the price for you to leave me alone." That didn't work. Instead they said,"Yeah he took care of that. He will pay triple if we make you beg, looks liked of worked. But we need a bit more of a recording. Good thing we brought this." He brought out a tape recorder and turned it on. As he put it on the table next to him two of them kept her pinned." Now hold still," he said," your gonna love this." Before they could do something, they heard hoof steps behind them. They turned around and saw the same grey stallion Rarity saw on the train.

"Hey this is official bussness," the one pinning her left side down said,"it's best that you leave if you know what's good for you." The gray stallion just waved. The one that was on top of her got off and said,"You know what? I'll make you a deal. You leave now and you get to keep those hoofs of yours." He then pointed at him which annoyed the stallion,"Keep pointing. That hoof at me and you are going to wish you didn't." The pony in front of him gave a laugh,"Seriously, leave now and..." that was all he could say before he snapped his hoof far enough back to touch his nose. The pony was making sounds of a new born baby filly that's crying. The gray stallion han back hoofed him and pushed him out of the way. The other two ponies went at him. The first one he right crossed and blocked a hit. He than spinner and bucked him away, the second one came up and also tried to fight him. He just flipped him over is back and punched him in the face. Due to the head injury Rarity was past out. He picked her up and carried her out of the room.

She awoke in the middle of the night with a headache and a warm wet cloth over her head. She looked around the room and noticed it wasn't hers. Where was she? A voice called to her saying,"Good, your awake." Rarity looked at her side and saw the gray stallion smiling. "Where am I?" She said. "You are in my room. Here drink this it's medicine. It will help your pain go away. I left some food on the drawer next to you. I hope you like macaroni and cheese." He pointed at a plate next to her. "If you want more just ask." Rarity used her magic to levitate the plate too her. "Oh don't use your magic, too much concentration will make your headache worst." She didn't know what to think.

"Who are you?" She said as she picked up the plate. He happily replied,"I am Clanky Gears, and you?" Rarity wanted to devour her plate food that made her really hungry. "I am Rarity. Perhaps you've heard of me." Clanky stared."No don't believe I haven't." He joked." Yes how else wouldn't I know the name of an element of harmony. I also hear of how good at fashion designing you are. I say I rather want to kiss you right now." He laughed at the joke he made. Rarity did too and said,"Don't bargain what you can't chew." They laughed again. Second day and she already made a new friend. Finally Clanky asked," Hey, do you want to come to my reunion tomorrow?" It was Rarity's honor. "Why yes I would. Thank you for the inventation." Clanky gears smiled and said,"Great. So why where those ponies trying to do stuff to you?" Rarity sighed and said," It really is a long story. Can I just tell you it tomorrow? He cooperated."Well.. alright. I will bring you break feast in the morning. Don't go back into that room of yours just in case they decide to come back and ransack it. I will be on the couch if you need me." He walked to the door and/stopped when he was behind it. "Goodnight Rarity." He said before shutting it. Rarity finished her plate of food while they where having their conversation so she put it off too the side. She lied down on the pillow, closed her eyes, and said,"Goodnight Clanky Gears."

The Reunion

View Online

Rarity sat up in bed still thinking about last night. He was kind, but at the same time seemed kind of weird. She had noticed it when he had a sudden change in attitude when those ponies brought her back from the artshow. That was the least of her problems. She's been here for three days, and already she wanted to go home. She didn't want another bad thing to happen.

This all dates back too two weeks ago. Applejack walked into Rarity's house and saw Rarity out cold on the ground. Applejack immediatly rushed Rarity to the hospital as fast as she could. When she woke up she saw the rest of the mane six, two of the Cutie Mark Crusaders, and even her parents. Which was strange since they are usually on a bussiness trip of some sort, and they where all staring at her. The doctor came in and told Rarity that she had been out for three days. There was something that caught everyone's attention though. The doctor said that she nearly had a heart attack due to too much stress. He than said she isn't allowed to work for five weeks. Which got Rarity extremely upset since she had deadlines that needed to be made all over Equastria, but Twilight made sure they knew why they wouldn't be reiceving their dresses. The only pony that hasn't heard was her little sister Sweetie Belle. That was all two weeks ago.

Clanky Gears huh? Rarity thought. There was something about him that she couldn't figure out. Did she like him? Maybe that was it. Hopefully when she goes home she will still have a way to contact him. She begin to wonder how Sweetie Belle was doing and if Twilight was OK. With everything that has been happening, Rarity hasn't been herself lately. She just had to get away from there, even if she had to putt up with blueblood.Blue Blood, just thinking of his name made Rarity vomit a little in her mouth. A little hit job won't put her down that much, even if she is overreactive. She will get revenge somehow, but she can't. Hurting a royal was highly against the law. That is exactly what Rarity wants to do.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Clanky Gears walked to the door Rarity was behind and knocked. Rarity heard the knock and opened the door. Rarity gasped at what she saw. He looked more different than before. His mane was shorter, his tail was well groome, and his cutie mark was finally visble. Three gears. That would of been to simple to predict. He made a gesture with his hoof, and said,"Well, let's go." Clanky begin walking to a taxi outside the small motel while Rarity followed at his side. Walking out of the motel was the last thing she wanted to do today. She didn't know why, but she felt something odd today.

Clanky and Rarity piled into the taxi right after telling the driver where to go. This was a big city and she knew it was gonna be a long ride. She was still worried , but only a little. The stallion steering the taxi begin running at full speed. If she wanted to change her mind, she lost the chance no later than a second ago.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Twilight streched out her wings and layed her head down. Rarity was right, Sweetie Belle has been quit a handful lately. Luckily, her and the crusaders where out strolling trying to find new adventures that will give them there cutie marks. These three days she has had a lot of trouble sleeping. Sweetie Belle was just too enerjetic. At first it just started with a broken window. Twilight didn't mind that much since according to her after all her and her friends have been through, that was normal. Than it became a few torn pages, many many things broken that where impossoblie to break, and a letter from Celestia on how to watch foals. What they did that got Celestia's attention, she didn't know. She didn't want to know. She just wanted Rarity to hurry up and come back.

She knows Rarity hasn't been herself lately. Everypony knew and where worried. By everypony it was literally everypony in Ponyvillie. Just last week Lyra HeartString went to go ask Rarity to make her a dress, but on the way she heard some ponies talking and kind of felt sorry. They all felt sport. Which just made Rarity want to get away from it more. Well this will all be over in a few weeks.

"Come on Scootaloo, do it." Said Apple Bloom as the three crusaders where finding out new ways too earn their cutie marks.

Scootaloo looked down with a look of fear, but came over it and said, "Well... OK." She than jumped from a far height onto a tetartotor. A gigantic rock than flew over their heads and hit a tree bringing it down.

"Well making a lifesize game of pinball wasn't our best idea," said Sweetie Belle."

In front of them where a bunch of obsticules that the rock was suppose to use to direct. Many of the objects where destroyed do to many different attempts. All failing. They all looked at the mess they made and still couldn't believe nopony could hear any of the commotion. They have been setting up and reconstructing for weeks now and not one was a success. They could ask Pinkie Pie if she could get Maud Pie to come and help since she knows alot about rocks, but nopony has seen her for days. Nopony knew where she was.

The Cutie Mark Crusaders decided they where done with this project and clean everything up. After hours of work, they headed back to their club house to think of yet another "brilliant"idea. All they could come up with in weeks was that dume rock idea. They didn't get it, every time they tried to find a way to get their cutie mark, it either got them in trouble, hurt, or had to he'll fix damages to the small town.

Sweetie Belle looked around the small room of the club house and said"Alright girls, we need to figure out a new way to earn our cutie marks cause so far the only things we got on our flanks so far where bruises and dirt. What do we come up with?"

Scootaloo put a hoof up to her chin and said, "We could become comedians."

Sweetie Belle ignored that and turned to Apple Bloom, waiting for her answer."We could peel apples." Apple Bloom suggested.

Sweetie Belle sighed and said,"Going back to Scootaloo."

Scootaloo raised a hoof to indicate that she needed a second to think. "We could find more ponies our age with no cutie marks and ask them to join us."

Sweetie Belle turned back to Apple Bloom and said,"Apple blo... wait? That might actually work. Good thinking Scootaloo."

Scootaloo gave a thanking nod to Sweetie Belle's reply. "Alright, so it's settled than, we will..."knockknockknock. The three looked at the door. Sweetie Belle walked to it and said,"Who could that be?" When she opened it she gasped in surprise...
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

"This is good," said Clanky to the stallion steering the taxi. They both got out and Clanky tipped the stallion.

Calnky walked to Rarity's side and Rarity said," What are we doing here? I thought we where going to go to the manetional park."

Clanky looked her in the eyes and spoke."There has been a change of plans."

Rarity put on a look of confusions."Are we still going?"

Clanky continued to look and smile at Rarity as he answers her question,"Why yes. Just a change in location."

"Where?" Asked Rarity.

"Here," He said to her question.

They both walked up to a large shady building. It seemed well put together, it was white, and looked about two storied, maybe 3 storied. For a nice house there was a bunch of paint coming off. Clanky reared up to the door and knocked. A few seconds later a mare opened the door and gestured to come in. When they got in the very first thing Rarity noticed was all the ponies, but that wasn't all there where griffons. She even noticed three changlings. Which was odd since the last and first time she saw a changling they where trying to take over Equastria.

"AEH! Clanky Gears, last time I saw ya you where in a cart accident. I'm still surprised you made it out without a scratch." Said a brown stallion.

He turned to Rarity and said,"Who's this little whore?" Rarity scoffed in anger. She wanted to slap that grin off him, but the last things she wanted to do was start a fight at a reunion and when she just got here.

Instead she held it back and said,"Beg pardon?" Clanky stared at him also with a look of anger.

"Big D, you should not treat a mare that way. Use precise language if you will." Big D just shrugged and said nothing. Clanky turned to Rarity and said,"Why don't you have a look around?" Rarity was still too angry to talk, so she just did what he asked and went up the stairs that where in their path.

Clanky looked at everyone and the room and said,"She will be becoming a new member, her name is Rarity." It was short, but everyone understood completely.

Big D got up from where he was sitting and said,"Why would someone like her join us? I can see why you chose her since she has a nice flank and all, but just look at her mane. What does she brush her hair twice an hour or something?"

Clanky rolled his eyes than answered him"She seems a bit different if I may presume. She has craft skills that should help us very much. And no I did not choose her because she has a "nice flank," it just sounds like she knows a lot on what she does."

A griffon than put a smile on his face and said,"What if she knows too much and doesn't want to join' can we have some "fun" with her?" Clanky once again rolled his eyes and answered the question."I will have to think on that, she seems too nice of a mare, and doings somthing like that might just tear her apart."

A mare behind him than scoffed and said,"Oh, so your becoming soft now huh? We are Equastria's largest gang and everyone of us in here wouldn't mine making a pony suffer."

Clanky could not believe what he was hearing. He knew there was nothing he could say to convince them, so he said the only thing he could."So be it. If she doesn't agree than you can do what ever you want to her, same goes for all of you."

That put a look of satisfaction on the face of everyone in the room. "Well I hope she chooses the wrong idea," said the griffion,"cause I haven't gone without sex in months."

Rarity was walking down the hallways of the wondrous building. It was much bigger than her home, but not as quit put together. She heard some coughing going on in some of the rooms, but she didn't want to go snooping around on sompony's property without their permission. She than heard a voice calling out to her."Hey, hey you."

Rarity turned around and saw an orange stallion. She wen to his direction and stopped when she got abouthree feet in front of him."You a new member?"

That got Rarity's attention."Member? Of what?" The stallion put a face on that seemed to discomfort Rarity.

"You know, the gang."

That's when Rarity heard it all."Gang? What do you mean gang?" She heard hoof steps coming from behind her and turned around. Standing there was Clanky Gears himself. He gestured her to go inside the room the stallion was standing in. She didn't like it, but she wanted an explanation.


"What does he mean gang?" She said.

Clanky said nothing and gestured for the stallion to tell her."We are Equastria's largest gang. I suppose you are someone who was brought here to be made part of it I bet. My you are very lucky, most of the ponies we bring in here are usually tied up and are wearing sacks on their heads. You must really like this one Clanky."

Rarity thought for a moment for if this was a prank than laughed and said,"You are quiet the jockster darling, however could you make something like this up?"

Clanky smiled than said,"I didn't. This is all real. If you don't believe me than look at the wall to your left."

Rarity looked and her eyes quickly fled the scene. There on the wall, where several pictures of ponies massacred, slautered, butchered, murdered. Rarity didn't want to think of the word. There where photos of ponies burned to death, stabbed to death, tortured to death! She let out a scream loud enough for the whole block to hear. She wanted to get out she wanted to hide, but she couldn't. She was on the second floor with the door blocked and a risky jump from the window.

The orange stallion than got hold of her than pinned her down. Rarity tried to get out of his grasp but couldn't. She did the only she could think of, she to hold of a dresser with her magic and slammed it into his side. The amazing impact brought him through the wall and in the next room. Rarity than made a run too the door, but just before she could Clanky got a hold of her."Calm down!"

He said,"If they knew what you where doing right now they would do terrible things to you." That didn't convince Rarity so he through her to the ground and got on top of her to keep her pinned. That's when she noticed a knife under the bed. She tried to reach for it but couldn't. Clanky than stated,"You have till the count of three to calm down! One... Two...Thre..." Before he could finish that, Rarity used her magic to throw the knife in his right eye. Clanky screamed as he felt the extreme pain. Rarity didn't have time to think. She heard hoofsteps coming from the hallway. Without second notice, she jumped out of the window.

She landed in a rose garden with a soft thud. When she got up she noticed that she injured her hoof. She didn't want to think of that right now, she just wanted to go home. Rarity than became dizzy for a second but shook it off. She worked her way to the street where she saw a stallion and his cart. She limped her way towards him and begin to plead."Please sir," she whispered as she begin to crawl,"I need help." Before she could say anything else the stallion put her in the cart as he realized what was going on. He saw the gang make the way out of the building. Without anyother choice, the stallion pushed the cart down hill and jumped on. The cart rolled nonstop.

When they got far enough the stallion pulled a string and the cart seized to a stop. Rarity looked up and noticed that the stallion was hovering over her."What happened, do you want me to get help?" He said. For now Rarity didn't want any help. Instead she said,"Just take me to the train station. After you drop me off there I need you to go to the police." The stallion looked confused. He couldn't understand why she wasn't wanting to have the safety of custody, but he looked at her and understood completely. She didn't feel safe here anymore.

The cart stopped in front of the train station dropping Rarity off. Before Rarity took another step, he stallion spoke,"wait, miss. I need your name so I can tell the police." She sighed and said,"Rarity, my name is Rarity." The stallion nodded.

The stallion than begun to move again and said,"Take care Rarity." Than he was gone. Rarity didn't waste any time getting on the train. She quickly bought a ticket and borded it. When the train took off, she looked out the window and saw Big D looking right at her direction. Lucky the train left the station before he could do any thing. Rarity signed in reileif, than begin to feel a little dizzy. Every thing became blurry as the last thing she saw where ponies standing over her. She than fell to the floor breathing heavily and before any pony could do anything, she past out...
