Chapter 2: A Blast from the Past

Chapter 2:Blast From the Past

Written by: Raikiry

Blitz was walking the path to enter Ponyville. He let out a sigh, remembering why he left this place. He remembers it all too well; the pain and the emotions he's been through. He remembers leaving Ponyville and moving to Fillydelphia.

He was drinking and getting himself drunk, trying to forget the incident in Ponyville. Until a stallion that owns the bar didn't like him getting drunk and was annoyed with him. He went towards Blitz and told him to leave, cause he was having too much to drink and might be a problem.

Blitz wasn't completely drunk. He understood what he was doing and he didn't wanted to cause trouble. He got up in his chair and gallop out the bar. He looks up in the sky knowing it was already dark. Few minutes of walking around in Fillydelphia, he felt sickness in his stomach and was about to puke.

Few minutes of puking, he notices somepony looking at him. He couldn't tell who he or she was but he only heard him talking and saying something to him.

"Are you okay mister?" the mysterious stallion said.

"Um...Yeah...I'm fine..." Blitz said while sitting down on the floor.

"Um it doesn't look like it. I know you don't know me, but when I saw you, it seems you're in pain of some sort." the stallion said.

"Um...Yeah I am...I kinda got heartbroken in my old town, and I kinda ran away." Blitz said trying to hold some tears.

The mysterious stallion sighs and got closer to Blitz. His coat was white and his hair was also. But when Blitz saw the stallion eyes, he could admit there were beautiful. His eyes was light ocean blue and he never seen a pony with amazing eyes.

"Names Light Dust, and you are?" the stallion said sitting next to him.

"Um...." He couldn't tell his name cause he just meet the pony and might be a mugger.

"Ah well is ok if you don't want me to tell your name. Now if you don't mind me asking what's wrong?" Dust said giving him a warm smile.

Blitz turns his head and met his sight. For some reason with that expression he is giving, Blitz can tell he can trust him. But he doesn't understand why. He closes his eyes and let the tears come out his eyes and told everything what happen.

For a few hours had past of telling him what happen. Dust gave him a warm smile at him and said, "Ah, a broken heart. I know how that's feel. See I was like you and, truth be told, I was about to give up everything." Dust said.

Blitz looks at him and notice something in his eyes that he was telling the truth. He couldn't tell how but he could tell that his heartbreak was worse than his. Blitz stood silent and heard his part of his story.

"Well you see. I was heartbroken also and I was going to give up everything. I moved away just like you. One

faithful night I was about to take my life away but somepony stop me. I couldn't tell who he was but I was scared and thought I was being robbed. But nothing happen. The mystery pony just stood there in the dark." Dust said when he closes his eyes.

"You know what he told me?" He opens his eyes and look at Blitz.

Blitz wanted to know what the mystery pony said to Dust when he was about to take his life away. Dust smile and said words that seems that came out of a cheap novel.

"He said, "Don't take your life. You're important in this world. Keep moving forward and don't let a simple heartbreak get you. You might feel scared to meet this pony again, but be strong and ready when it happens." Dust said to Blitz, who he didn't understand those words.

"Now tell me what's your dream?" Dust said to Blitz.

"Um...my dream is to become part of the Wonderbolts and be the fastest flier in all Equestria." The fastest flier of all Equestria he knew was Rainbow Dash. He sighs to himself until he felt a hoof in his shoulder.

"Don't give up. And you know what you probably be a good doctor or medic one day Blitz." He said his final words when he got up from where he was sitting and left Blitz.

For a few moments of processing everything he said, he notices something shocking. How did he know his name if he didn't told him his name? Blitz got up and chase after Dust to ask him how he knew his name. But it was too late he was nowhere to be found.

Blitz turns around and kept walking in the city until a mare stops him from his tracks. He saw the mare scared and crying.

"Please help me. My child, she can't breath and nopony can help me. Please I beg of you."

Blitz didn't know what to do, but he did know he didn't want her to lose a child. Her daughter was more important than a silly heartbreak. Blitz agree to help and follow the stressed out mare and saw her child choking and saw of couple of ponies surrounding her trying to help.

He was afraid he didn't know what to do in the situation like this. But he didn't want to leave like this. Blitz was trying to do everything he did to help the child. Blitz went behind the child and by the looks of it she was choking on something on her throat. He puts his hooves and push in her stomach making her to spit out the stuck object. Few more attempts and it was a success the child spit out a plastic head from a toy.

The child cries and was hugging her mother. Blitz heard the mare saying thank you a thousand times to him and he heard couple of ponies applauding him. He felt something in him. His heartbreak and pain was somewhat gone.

After a moment he saw everypony leaving him. He saw one pony approach him. It was same stallion that talked to him.

"See Blitz, you don't need to give up. Just keep moving forward and that heart break of yours only makes you stronger." Dust said giving him a smile.

"I think I'll keep that in mind. But tell me how did you know my name?" Blitz asks.

Dust smile and didn't say a word, he kept walking until Blitz couldn't see him again.

For a few moments of thinking, Blitz wanted to do something than be a Wonderbolt. He wanted to help ponies. So he started studying medicine and care.

Two years had past and Blitz graduated and became a doctor. In his graduation, he couldn't believe he made it this far. He couldn't come this far without Dust. So he decided to go to the nearest pony police station and tell him if they got an address of Light Dust.

What came after, he couldn't believe it. The police officer explains to him that he was dead for twenty years of suicide. This was a shocker to Blitz with no complain. He exit out of the police station and looked above the sky.

He smiled and said, "I think I got a Guardian Angel looking after me," he said to himself and gallop down to his apartment.

Few months past and Blitz decided to look for a job in Ponyville. At first he was scared, but he knew he needed to be ready if he ever bumps into Rainbow again. It's been three years now and he needed to be ready. He packs up his stuff and started to go to Ponyville.

He let out a sigh, knowing he was here now. Noticing that he already enter Ponyville, he pulled out a note pad and saw his to do list.

1.Get A House.

2.Get a Job as a Doctor in Ponyville Hospital.

3.Get to know Ponies in Ponyville.

He sighs and continues his way to the Ponyville hospital. But one pink pony stops him in his track.

"Hiya!"
