"She is lucky" he said "My guess is Shadow had found a way ta stop it from happening to her."

[Mephala 2,633]

*Wrong!* crowed the filly excitedly. *That's not it!*

[Chickey 383]

"Alright what is it den?" Clocks asked

[Mephala 2,633]

*You know how she has that weird blood disease? Ah, I guess you wouldn't. Well, anyways, it appears to have given her some sort of resistance to the vampire virus. Many viruses, in fact.* The filly nodded, almost respectfully. *It's not 100 percent foolproof bu it's good enough to let her not be turned. And with this growing vampire epidemic, if you sold her blood-that's a lot of money in the bank. Even a tiny bit of it offers resistance.*

[Chickey 383]

"Dat's pretty interesting" he said nonchalantly "I bet Shadow will be disappointed though"

[Mephala 2,633]

*Hm, why's that?* asked the filly. *She needs to be careful. She's losing all her blood and getting transfusions. Soon she won't have much of her original stuff left.*

[Chickey 383]

"Well, think about it, my guess is he was plannin to have her turn sometime. Even if he would dread makin her live forever an become some sort-a creature of da night. I don't think he could physically take watching her grow old an die while he has ta live on alone" He explained

[Mephala 2,633]

The filly cocked her head and nodded. *Well if he continues to drink her blood there's not going to be any of her original stuff left, and she'll be vulnerable.*

[Chickey 383]

"Well dat's not really my problem now is it?" he asked

[Mephala 2,633]

*No,* said the filly shortly, and then stood up as Rain stirred. *Well that's my cue.*

When Rain opened her eyes, the filly was gone. "Are you just going to bother us all the time?* she groaned at Shadow.

[Chickey 383]

"What, ya wanted to have me leave ya in da forest with da mass murderin filly?" he asked with a laugh and picked up Shadow "Let's get back to da town" he said.

[Mephala 2,633]

'Yeah, whatever," muttered Rain, falling into step next to him. "Why are you helping, anyways?"

[Chickey 383]

"Well considerin i've done all these bad things, i thought i could do a few good deeds fer a while i suppose" he said as he started to walk with Shadow on his back. Expecting Rain to follow "Yous comin?"

[Mephala 2,633]

Rain looked mockingly stunned. "Did I just hear you saw you wanted to do something GOOD?" she asked, scrambling up next to him and stumbling, bumping against him. 'Sorry," she muttered, and she flipped her mane to reveal a cut she'd made on her neck earlier. "Let's go."

[Chickey 383]

"Well i guess i'm not completely heartless, even if i normally am" He said with a chuckle. He nodded and started off towards the town. "Would ya rather go to Cloudsdale, or Ponyville still or somthin? Well i suppose i don't even know if there still called that, or are still there but still"

[Mephala 2,633]

"Not Ponyville," said Rain, looking mortified. She then blinked. "I mean...yeah, Cloudsdale is good."

[Chickey 383]

"Alright" he said with a nod, deciding to not ask and questions as to why. They continued to walk until they reached the end of the forest and walked out of it. Ponyville off to the right, and Cloudsdale a bit to the left. "Well den, lets go i guess" he said hefting Shadow in a more comfortable place on his back, and getting ready to go.

[Mephala 2,633]

"Are you going to be able to carry him and fly?" asked Rain doubtfully, and she carefully brushed against him. "Move him over a bit, I can support him too."

[Chickey 383]

"Alright, but this oaf is basically a sack-a-bricks" he said letting Rain support a portion of him and started to walk. Seeing he was a vampire, he could easily carry him.

[Mephala 2,633]

Rain struggled along beside him, being a good deal shorter than him. "Yeah, he needs to lay off on the liquid cement...." she muttered grumpil.

[Chickey 383]

Clocks chuckled. They took the shortest route to Cloudsdale. He looked up at the city "I could prolly fly him up there" He said readying his wings "But, do you live up there" he said noticing the house floating right below it. "Or is dat where you live?"

[Mephala 2,633]

"House," said Rain sheepishly. "Though we don't really have much furniture."

[Chickey 383]

Clocks shrugged "Alright" he said as he took off with Shadow on his back and reached the house. He opened the door with magic and walked inside and sat Shadow down on the couch. He noticed the house was mostly empty.

[Mephala 2,633]

Rain looked at Shadow sitting on the couch. "Is he going to be all right?" she asked Clocks in concern, feeling about ready to collapse herself.

[Chickey 383]

"Eyeah, he will jus be out for-a bit" Clocks said as he started off for the door to leave.
