Bat Colt, Imagine Comet, and Tom Folk: Your triple lifeby StrikerboltChaptersPrologue The Portal (altered)The Library (altered)The Laughing Fit (altered)The PlanThe Plans Execution (altered)The Bomb (altered)The Next DayUpdatePrologue Prologue Prologue: Your current living state Your name is Tom Folk. You are 18 years old, a relaxed soon to be student at U of MS (university of magic and science). At this school, you study sciences and the relations to magic. You got a full scholarship because of your amazing studies on magical creatures and the scientific possibility of their existence. You also wish to study alternate universe theories. You believe somewhere, there are universes just like ours, except that the dominant species are other creature (say ponies or dogs or even dragons). You also believe they'd have talking abilities as well. You are also quite good at mechanics. You figure that this will help with your studies. Devices to simulate creatures or open portals would be cool. It is late June in the summer. You live in Kentucky (the blue grass state, also known for horses), so it is usually pretty nice out this time of year. You are living in a house only a street or two away from the university. It is one story with a basement. You own this house with out having to pay for the house it self. It was abandoned, so you moved in without having to consult the government. You knew the family that abandoned it, and they loved the idea of you owning it. For indoor plumbing and electricity, your mechanics came in handy. You have solar panels for electricity, and the university let you use their showers. For toiletry and hand washing, you used the conveniently close forest and stream in the backyard of your house. (Yeah, your house is at the outskirts of a forest, deal with it!) Your house is gray bricked on the outside. Your front door enters to your living room. It is pretty basic. There is a red couch on the left wall and an hd tv on the right. There is a hall way to the right that leads to your bedroom. It has a bed and a couple posters of Doctor who and Batman. To the left of the living room is a small kitchen. It has a microwave built into the wall, a stove under the counter, and a toaster on the counter above the stove. The fridge is on the opposite side of the kitchen with a cabinet for non refrigerated goods. In the basement, which you left locked, was your mechanics and sketching room. In there, you built devices and wrote and drew schematics, as well as mythical creatures. Though your book shelf upstairs held basic novels, the one down here held your journals and reference guides. That left only groceries, tv, and laundry your only expenses. There is a laundry mat near by the university, and there was a near by Target as well. To pay for these, you work shifts at the college library, and mow lawns of near by houses. Most college expenses will be covered by your scholarship, but your college fund saved up for you by your parents. With your parents recently departed to heaven, you gained quite a lot of money, considering your a college student. You work the jobs, still, because you are using some the will money to build a portal. Some of the money also helps pay for the satellite for tv. You keep it hidden in your basement, so no one can find it. You have gotten quite close to finishing it. You've also made it accessible via watch, for when your on the other side. You start classes in late August. Today, your portal is ready to be tested. Author's Note Let me know what you think. This is my first fanfic, so I'm open for ideas and constructive criticism. Also, am I aloud to use brand names? Sorry this hasn't gotten to MLP yet, but I must introduce "you". Next chapter will hop right in. Tell me if you enjoyed this because I'd love to know. The Portal (altered)You come home from mowing the lawns of your neighborhood, sweaty but still strong and able. You grab your tool box and head down stairs. You make sure that you are wearing your watch. Not just any old watch, the watch that controls the portal. Last week you tested it out on a rat you caught outside the stream. You wore the watch, but attached the wrist band that warped you back once you were there. The rat survived the trip, but it came back with a human with mint green hair and a white stripe in it, who seamed very happy to be here. She ran out of your house and you haven't seen her since. You make sure you have a back pack containing a ten dollar bill. You use a backpack because you figure if you transform to fit the universe, you might not have fingers. Imagine opening a wallet without fingers. Also, if your money transforms, you don't know the exchange rate.You also bring your phone(in the backpack), a water bottle (ditto), some robotic parts (ditto), and a black cape (in backpack). You put on the fore mentioned band and activate the portal. You begin to see white, and wonder if your dead. Then, as you spin, you realize you wouldn't be feeling spinning if you were dead. You feel weightless and yet heavy as black matter at the same time. You then appear on the ground. You don't fall or stumble, you're just there. You wake up, realizing you must have been knocked out at sometime. You open your eyes and see a cyan Pegasus standing over you. She has a rainbow mane. You soon realize that you don't have hands or feet. Your head is different but you can't put your nonexistent finger on it. You also notice you have a tail now. You have fur and a mane instead of hair. Your fur is dark blue, you mane as shaggy as your hair and the same ginger-now red- hair. Or mane, as it is now. Then comes the best part. You feel new appendages. Could they be as you always have dreamed? You look and see on your pony side... "Wings! I have wings! This is amazing!" You couldn't contain it. You look back up to the Pegasus standing above you. She gives you a look like you just spat up on yourself like a baby. "Yes, you do. Um...... Where'd you come from? And why are you just realizing your wings?" She asks. Her voice for a moment almost made you think she was a guy. Her raspy voice could have been either sex. You notice her build is different than yours, sort of like human girls, so you assume she's female. "Did you hit your head or something?" "Um....yeah." You say "TWILIGHT! There's a suspicious pony out here!" She yells. You look over and notice that a couple of yards away is a giant tree. Then, finally, it hits you! "You're a Pegasus! I'm a Pegasus! We're Pegasi! We're ponies!" She looks at you with the same look from earlier. A purple unicorn trots out of the tree. "Oh my god you're a unicorn! A purple unicorn! Who lives in a tree! This is amazing!" She trots over and looks at you with the same look. Then, the adrenaline stops. "Oh gosh, was that me? So sorry. Must be side affects to the portal." "Portal? Rainbow dash, get off of him so he can stand." Spoke the unicorn. With all the new stuff, the talking isn't a surprise. She looks over you and you see a look in her eye. 'What was that look'? She seemed to note something. She seemed interested in what you said and your confusion. You begin to notice her. Her coat was light purple, her mane dark with one strand of pink. On her rear you notice a six pointed star. On Rainbow dash, as she was called, was a cloud with rainbow lightning. On yours is- Before you can look, the unicorn slaps you, then so does Rainbow dash. You realize that you had looked at their butts, which, no matter what creature you are, is frowned upon. Then, the unicorn realizes something by the looks of it. "Oh you were looking at out cutie marks!" She says realizing her mistake. "I thought you were..." She blushes and helps you up. She wraps her hoof around your, which seems to work as a grip somehow. "I'm sorry. My name is Twilight Sparkle, and this is Rainbow dash. What's you name?" "Oh, I'm-" "Imagine Comet." Says Rainbow. You know your name is Tom Folk, but this sounds right, too. It must be your pony name. Then you wonder how she knew that. Almost as if she read you mind, she says "It says so on your saddle bag." You remember your name was on your back back, so it must have become a saddle bag. You look to your rear and see your cutie mark. It is a comet with a rainbow tail. It has several mythical creatures on it. You realize cutie marks must be your special talent. "Here, lets all go inside my place to talk about all this." You follow, your eyes glancing at the tree. You are curious to what lies inside. Author's Note I feel good about this chapter, but I want to hear about it. If I messed up anything, you have an idea, or even just want to comment on my writing abilities good or bad, I'd love to hear. The Library (altered)As Twilight leads you into the tree, you are amazed. You see that the tree has been hollowed out. The walls contain hundreds of books. She leads you and Rainbow to a staircase leading to yet another room filled with books. This floor has books in the walls, but most are on the floor, being read you guess. There was a shorter case leading to an elevated platform. It had two beds and one basket at the foot of one bed. There was a small kitchen with a wooden table and a couple of cabinets. There's a photo of six ponies, two of which were sitting at the table. You sat down with them, trying to figure out why your "saddle bag" was so heavy. "All right! Spill it!" Demanded Rainbow Dash. You gave her a confused look. She sighed. "Explain you appearing from nowhere and acting so strange, acting like you were new to being a Pegasus." She clarified "Believe it or not, I'm new to being pony entirely." You state. Both of their jaws dropped. Twilight speaks. "So, you used to be another creature? Which one? How'd you change shape, and how pony?" "First, yes. Second, a creature you may have studied called homo-sapiens. Third, I think it was because of the portal. Forth, using logic, I believe it is because humans are the dominant species where I come from." Rainbow Dash just looks confused. Twilight thinks about it. She runs off. You assume to get a book. Rainbow Dash takes this as a chance to talk to you and get clarification "Ok, now in English." She says, obviously lost. You explain. "I used a science device to come here from a universe only spoken about in theories in this universe. I changed to a pony because in our universe, we run society the same as you do, so our species are equal. Though, it looks as if we have more advanced technology. However, with Twilight allowing a total stranger to enter her home, i assume there is a pretty large lack of crime." Twilight comes back with a book, titled The Alternate Universes and other multiverse theories. "I remember reading about humans. They seemed so much more capable that I thought it was illogical. Normally I wouldn't believe such a tale, but since you appeared from nowhere, I guess it's better to just believe you." She immediately turns excited and curious. This happens so fast you almost fall over. "So what's it like being human. Having fingers to pick stuff up. Also, it says you evolved from monkeys. Is that true? Oh I have so many questions!" You begin to answer when a purple and green dragon runs in, out of breath. "Twilight" puff "prankster" gasp "Rarity" and then passes out. You go help him up. So does Rainbow. Twilight gets him some water. "Who is this?" You ask. "This is my number one assistant, Spike. He was helping Rarity with something. I don't know what it was, but he seems tired out from it." When he wakes up he seems calm. Then a look of worry slams his face. "Rarity! She's been foal napped!" "By who? Do you know?" Asks Twilight. You can see everyone else is worried. Rarity must be important. "Who's Rarity?" You ask. "Who are you?" Asks Spike. "We don't have time for this! Who foal napped Rarity?" Asked Twilight "There was a ransom note back at the shop we can go get, but I remember the name. It said it was from the Prankster." Author's Note What do you think? I know I got 4 dislikes at least, so please tell me why. I want to know. Thank you for the favorites, those who did. You know who you are. Please comment. The Laughing Fit (altered)"The Prankster? What kind of a villain name is that? It's pathetic!" Said Rainbow Dash. You four (Spike, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, and you) are headed to Rarity's. It wasn't very far away, but you can fly, so of course it's not hard to get there. Speaking of which, you're flying! It feels amazing! Wind through your mane, your hooves off the ground. Your wings you thought would be hard to control. It takes no effort whatsoever once your off the ground. You do flips and dives and kicks, while staying in pace with everyone- or every pony- else. "You know, I agree with Rainbow Dash. The Prankster? That can't be a real villain, by the name it's just a pranking pony." Then it hits you, knocking you to the ground. Two things, actually. One, is realization. The other, is Rainbow Dash, who stopped moving. Out of nowhere, she started laughing. She cracked up. Twilight, on the other hand, was very concerned. (Note: Twilight was behind Rainbow. She is closer to the building. When you fell, you landed next to Twilight. Spike is on her back.) "Rainbow Dash! This isn't funny! You could have knocked him out!" No response but laughter. Now very worried about Rainbow, she turns her around. You notice that Rainbow never turned to laugh at you. She just laughed. You then notice the white aura around the building. It was very hard to notice but you see it there. As soon as Twilight touches the aura, she laughs, too. Spike is about to help but you stop him. "I think that white aura is protecting the building. I guess it's so know one could look for evidence." Spike looks worried. He grabs Twilights leg and pulls her out. She doesn't stop. You carefully grab Rainbows tail and pull it out Rainbow. Ditto. "What do we do?" "I'll go find Zecora. She knows all about curses and spells and stuff. You check the library." Spike says. "I'll take Twilight with me to show Zecora." "No, you couldn't carry her. Rainbow is still flying, so you could just pull her along. Where does Zecora live?" "In the Everfree forest. I know it's dangerous, but I have to save my friends." "I can fly, so I could get there quicker. I should show Zecora both. But how?" "I know! I know! Take the hot air balloon! Wait! I haven't seen you here before. Are you knew? If you new that means you don't have any friends. I guess you've already met Twilight and Rainbow. They're fun. I-" the pink pony appeared out of nowhere and wouldn't shut up. Spike eventually covered her mouth and whispered the situation in her ear. She fainted. Thank God. "I'll go find the balloon and fly it around above the Everfree forest." You went and saw no one at the balloon so you just took it. There was a sign that said 10 bits, so you reached in to grab your 10 when you felt mini gold coins. You assumed these were the bits. You had about 200. The rate must have been 5 cents is one bit. You left ten and flew above the forest. You noticed a tree shorter than the others. That was her house. You flew down, tied the balloon to a tree. You just now realize it was quiet. Too quiet. You look in the ballon and they are both KO'd. You run in and see the zebra. "Zecora! Twilight and Rainbow were hit by a spell that made them laugh themselves uncontious! Yes, you don't know me, but you know them. Please help!" You quickly blurted out. She walked out to see them. You explain what happened. Afterwards, she stated a simple sentence and went back inside. "If your friends yo wish to wake, you must give them a start or shake." You follow her back in. "So, surprise them awake." "I believe your statement to be true, do to them they'd not expect from you." "Got it." You walk outside. 'Well, I could slap them. They'd not expect that.' You think to yourself. You slap Rainbow Dash. She immediately wakes up and looks at you angrily. You quickly explain and she believes you skeptically. You tell her to go see Zecora. You then slap Twilight. She doesn't wake. You slap her again. Nothing. "Zecora!" You yell. "It's not working on Twilight." Rainbow Dash walks out. "Zecora says the same cure from the same person won't work twice." "Well then, what should I do?" "What's the cure?" "Do something they'd never expect. You could slap her." "She might expect that from me." "You could say you hate her." "That's already happened. Long story." Then a devious look appears on her face. "What?" "You could kiss her." If you had been drinking something, it'd be all over Rainbow Dash right now. "Why not you?" "Your a guy, so it's less sick" "She'd expect it less." "But she's known me for a while. You two just met." You've run out of excuses. "Alright, fine." You quickly give Twilight a peck on the cheek. Nothing. "It's got to be on the lips genius." You give her a quick peck on the lips. Nothing. "I don't know if I should be bragging that I was right or scared she expected that." "Zecora said a BIG surprise. Make it emotional! Passionate!" "You know, you could kiss her. You're being so enthusiastic!" "No, you need to kiss her. She thinks I'm lesbian, so it wouldn't be shocking." You sigh. You lean in and plant one on her lips. You wait a little while, then here a surprised, muffled noise. Twilight woke up. You back off, noticing the huge amount of laughter in the background. Rainbow Dash was dying of laughter. she was even crying you saw, when you turned around to scowl. You and Twilight both scowled with blushed cheeks. you noticed the slightest look in her eye, a sign of slight enjoyment, total surprise. You had to admit, it wasn't horrible. It felt great, but that was still probably the most awkward thing ever. so, why not make it worse. "Well Dash, looks like you missed you chance with this single dude-uh-stallion." You say, earning a laugh from Dash and an even redder blush from Twilight. "Relax Twilight, I'm joking." She laughs, too. "Well, looks like my cure idea worked!" Bragged Rainbow Dash. "After at least three try's!" You respond. Twilight eyes widen in surprise. She then laughs it off. "Thank you, but what happened?" She asks. You explain. You all head back to the Library. By the time you get back, it's late. A problem then hits you: Where are you going to stay? You ask Rainbow and Twilight if they no any place with free overnight staying. "Well, you could stay at my place. I only have one bed, so you'd have to sleep on the couch." Suggest Rainbow. "Actually, I have a second bed. You can stay here Imagine, if you want." Suggest Twilight. "Thanks for the offer Rainbow, but I'll stay with Twilight. She has a spare bed after all." You say. You all go home and rest. You prepare yourself for some adventure tomorrow. The PlanYou and spike sneak out of the library. You had filled your bed with books to make it look like you were still there sleeping in case Twilight woke up. You and Spike both knew that You had to save Rarity as soon as possible. He had shown you the photo of her, or really the photo of Twilights best friends with her in it. You had to admit, she was pretty hot, for a pony. You had passed a mechanics shop that said open all night. You kept that in mind. When you arrive a Rarity's boutique, you see the spell is gone. Just to double check, you threw a rat. It doesn't laugh. You head in side and see a huge mess of fabric and half made dresses. In the clutter you see a note. You read it out loud. "'Dear Reader, I have Rarity. You all know that the elements of harmony won't work without her present, as well as the fact that most stallions, and even some mares, would give anything to be with her. There is also the fact that she is the towns most well known seamstress. If you ever wish to see her alive, a fee of 1,000,000 bits must be paid. If and additional 1,000,000 is paid, i won't set off the bomb I planted in town hall. I will be at her boutique at 2:00 am on the 20th of this month. If the police show up, I'll blow the place to smithereens. Yes, I have a bomb here, too. Love, The Prankster. P.S. I have Sweetie Belle, too.'" After Spike quickly explains who Sweetie Belle is, what he elements of harmony are, and what day it is (the 19th at 9:45 pm), you understand the situation. "We have to the pay 2,000,000 bits!" Spike says. "No, we need to find a way to get Rarity without paying." "How! It's not like there's some super hero we can call. Mare do well retired after a few days." "Sounds like a weak super hero." You remember this morning's discovery. "What we need is a hero who will strike fear into the hearts of villains, a hero to stand for justice. We need.... Bat Colt!" "Oh I like the sound of that. But who- wait, you can't be seriously thinking- can I help?" "Sure. I'll be Bat Colt, you can be Dragon wing. The only problem is everypony will know its you." "If we can save Rarity, I don't care or all of Equestria knows I am." "That's the spirit. I saw a mechanic shop not too far from here. I have an idea. Wait here." You quickly fly low to the ground, but fastly, to the store. You buy a large box of stuff only costing 10 bits. You get back and begin to work. First, you build a small cone that works off of your thoughts. You can use it to levitate objects. It's like a unicorn's horn. With that you begin to build gadgets. Spike gets to work on costumes. His work with Rarity really paid off. He knew how to make the costumes in a snap. You easily create several gadgets. One is a grappling hook, because Spike can't fly. Another is a boomerang in the shape of a bat. You make 20 of those for each of you. You build boots of titanium, so that if you need to come in for quick landing, it won't hurt. You make them so that they can stay in one place on slanted roofs. You build a cowl made of a strong substance that obsorbes shock. If you get in a fight, this will protect your head. You even have net grenades. you throw one and insteed of exploding it spreads to a net. You get out your cape you brought with you. You then help Spike design his cape to glide if he jumps. You make shoes and a cowl for him, too. Spike's costumes look amazing. Your's is flexible for combat and getting around, but as spikes on the arms to help in hand to hand. It had a bat shaped creast on your chest. Your cape is cut to look like a bat when you glide. Spike has a mask, and decides to where his cowl only for protection. His costume has a red phoneix as a creast. His has red lines in a cool unpatterned way. "At 1:00 the Prankster will probably come by to be ready. He will be holding the detonator no doubt. I'll knock it out of is grasps with a batarang. Then, we improvise. Before then, I will take the ransom letter to townhall. Then, I'll tell them I ave this handled, but I'll use the radio in my cowl to keep contact. Once Rarity is safe, you take her and Sweetie Belle inside. I'll take the Prankster to jail." You explain. "What do we do now?" Spike asks. "We set wheels in motion." Author's Note Comment please. The Plans Execution (altered)You walk into town hall. The secretary looks up from her work and looks back down calmly. You wait a moment, then she looks back up scared. She pulls out a radio communicator. "Security!" She calls. You had hoped that you could just give her the ransom note and explain. You run out the door and fly in an open second door window. You see the mayor there. It is obviously the mayor because she has a desk top name card that says Mayor Mare. She is surprised by your entrance, so you quickly explain. "I'm BatColt, and there has been a threat made against town hall. Here is the ransom note I discovered at the boutique." The Mayor quickly reads over it. "I will handle the villain. If you would like, I will keep in contact via radio. I'll set your radio to the correct frequency." You do. "I will tell you if I need back up. Go ahead and have a bomb squad on speed dial, as well as the prison. I'll send word when I have the Prankster." "I don't mean to be rude, but that would be if you catch him. Who are you anyhow?" Asked the Mayor. "I'm BatColt!" And with that you do a back flip out the window. You then glide to the ground after turning right side up. You sneak by the houses to the Botique. You then try and think of what to do for the next several ours. It was only 10:00. You decide to find somewhere to sleep. You tell Spike. "We can't go back to the Library. Two ways we could get caught. Also, we need to stay in costume to be ready." Says Spike. "Also, not here. The Prankster will be here guarding the place." "How about the mechanics shop?" "Some pony might see us." "How about Sugar Cube Corner? I could hide you two there! I'll wake you up at 12:30!" The pink pony from earlier suggested. Pinkie pie, as Spike told you when explaining the Elements of Harmony. "Pinkie, were you here the whole time?" You ask. "Well, duh. I want to save Rarity, too. By the way, nice costume Spike. You too pony from earlier. I never got your name." "I must hide my identity, even from you. Sorry, but it'll save your life." "It's okay, I know about secret identities. I was Mare Do Well. Well, one Mare Do Well. There were four." "Anyway, can you really hide us at sugarcube corner?" Asked Spike "Sure! I'll feed you, too, if you'd like." "Great! Thank you Pinkie! I don't know how to repay you." You say. "Hey, what're friends for?" You all head back to sugar cube corner. She lets you use her bed, and Spike use a spare basket. She went and slept in the baby room. You had a pleasent dream. Sadly, you can't remember it when you wake up. Pinkie woke you up at 12:00. "Pinkie, you said 12:30." You say gently, not to hurt her feelings. "I know, but I wanted to ask you something." She says. "Okay, shoot." "Do you think I'm pretty?" "Yes, why?" "Because I just now realized that I'm friends with everypony in town, but not a single one is semi interested in me." "Pinkie, that can't be true. You're pretty, kind, outward, very jumpy." "But because of the last one, nopony would consider me in anyway romantic." "There has to be somepony." "Would you consider kissing me and doing romantic stuff with me, in theory." "I would, but I don't feel that way about you. Some pony has to, though." "That's just it, nopony feels that way about me." "I'm sure they do, but maybe they're to shy to say so." "Your right! Some pony must like me and be too shy to say so! Thank you sooooo much!" You hadn't noticed earlier, but her hair had been down and straight. It was now poofy and curly like it used to. "Glad I could-" you get cut short by Pinkie pulling your face to hers and kissing you. It was quick, but it felt great. "-help." You quickly fall back asleep. A half hour later, you wake up. This time it's Spike. "Let's get something real quick to eat before we leave." He says. Pinkie had laid out two cupcakes for you. You took the red velvet, Spike took the strawberry. You two relaxed for a bit, then stretched. Before you knew it, it was 12:45. You and Spike sneak to the Botique. Spike grapples to the roof, you fly. A short time later, you see a white pony with a green mane with a white horn. It wore a purple tux with a flower in one pocket. He had two ponies tied together in a cart. One was a white mare with oddly perfectly styled amethyst mane. The other was a white foal pink and light purple mane. They were both terrified. The Prankster had a remote with a large red button on it. Also in the cart was an oversized mallet and a gun. When he gets to he front of the Botique, you ready you Batarang. You had been practicing earlier. You fin it is easier to aim with your hoof than your mechanical horn. You make sure that it will slice the remote in half, or at least not hit the button when it gets knocked from his hand. You throwing and hope for the best. It knocks the remote clear from the Prankster's grasp. It breaks when it hits the ground you leap with your hind leg aimed for his head. He looks up just in time to see you kick him. He is knocked to the side. You quickly get another batarang and cut the ropes holding the ponies together. "Thank you, mysterious bat pony!" Says Sweetie Belle. She runs inside. Rarity looks at you. "Who are you?" "I'm BatColt. I'm here to help you. Run inside and watch the young mare. Dragon wing and I have this handled." As if on cue, Spike landed next to you. "Spike? What are you doing? You could get hurt!" Rarity says. "I told you the disguise wouldn't work for you." You tell him. "He was so upset about your disappearance that he insisted on helping save you." You then feel a huge pain in your skull. You fall over and notice that the Prankster was back up. He is about to hit Spike when Rarity kicks him with her hind legs so hard he dents the tree he crashes into. You use your artificial magic and quickly throw a batarang at him. It knocks his hooves from under him and his head hits the ground. You get up and touch your head. You quickly pull away when you feel the pain. Your head is pulsing, but most of the pain is only felt when you touch it. Rarity quickly pulls Spike inside. The both watch at a window. Sweetie Belle is at the other window, closer to you. The prankster gets up and looks right at you. "Who is this Bat Freak? You can't stop my plans. I can still kill Rarity once you're dead! The bombs are on a timer to go off in an hour. Meanwhile, I can have fun killing you and your little Dragon. The other ponies will be a snap!" He speaks. His voice was obviously being faked. He tried to sound scratchy and evil, but you could tell that it used to be sophisticated. You can see that the green is a dye and that his mane used to be blonde. He runs at you magically levitating the mallet. You leap and fly over him, getting out a net grenade. You toss it at him and he is caught in the net. His flower squits out acid, and he escapes. "Mayor, the bomb is in the basement of each building. We have an hour. Hurry!" You quickly speak into the radio. The pony gasps as he notices your wings and horn. Seeing my blue coat, he then asks a question that reveals too much. "Is that you, auntie Luna?" He asks. "No matter who you are, you will not stop me from the task at hand!" You knew Luna and Celestia were the princesses of night and day. Spike mentioned them in the Elements of Harmony briefing. "BlueBlood?!?" Rarity yelled from the window. "Yes, it is I, Prince BlueBlood. You rejecting me drove me to insanity! So many mares saying I was self centered, selfish, and ungentlemanlike. I lost it. Now, I'll destroy you, and your precious-" you didnt let him finish. You had flown down to attack and started pounding him with punches. He had tried to kill people over his own behavior! You couldn't stand this. His nose began to bleed and he has a black eye. You figure he'll be uncontious for a while. You begin to talk via radio again. "I have the Prankster. I'll bring him by town hall." You then throw a net grenade and he is trapped in a net. "No, I'm not Luna." You say mostly to yourself. You fly him to the town hall where the Mayor and many Police are standing. You take the net up to them and drop it there. "You may want to call and tell Luna and Celestia their nephew tried to murder you all and Rarity and Sweetie Belle. I'll be off." With that, you rush to Rarity's house. Sweetie Belle and Spike were asleep on the floor. Rarity was levitating Sweetie Belle up stairs to her room. You are about to leave with Spike when Rarity notices. "Are you taking him to the Library? I think Spike would get in a lot of trouble if she knew he was out here. Leave him here. I'll say the Prankster came and got him in the night and you saved him, Sweetie Belle, and I. Thank you, by the way. How can I repay you." She said. She deductively batted her eyes. "No thanks nessicary. I did it for justice, not rewards." You respond. She walks over to pick up Spike. She takes him to a her room and sets him in her chair. When you guard is down, she quickly grabs your head and pulls it to hers. She kisses you, her tongue dancing on yours. You return the kiss and begin to gently stroke her mane. She lays down on the floor, as do you. You feel her warm coat next to yours. It feels wonderful. She slowly begins to kiss slower, until she, too, falls asleep. You unlock your lips and levitate her to her room. You wake up Spike, and you too sneak out. You and he get home and in bed at 1:30. You are about to take off your costume when it hits you. Still, is the basement of Raritys Botique, was a ticking time bomb. The Bomb (altered)Flying at full speed, it felt like only five second from the Library to the Botique. When you get there, you run upstairs. You lift Sweetie Belle on you back and take her outside. You lay her on a bush a short ways from there. You do the same with Rarity, but she wakes up on the trip. Her kiss on the ear almost made your legs lose all feeling. You explain the situation then run back to the Botique. You contact the bomb squad via radio. They're having no luck. As if it couldn't get any worse, you only have half an hour until the bomb goes off. You see that the bomb is not the tiny tnt with a clock attached that you hoped for. You know nothing about disarming bombs, or telling their threat level. The bomb is a large box with a timer attached. You contact the Mayor, who says her local time keeper Time Turner will be right over. You don't see how this will help until you see a blue police box appear. A smile slowly forms on your face. A light brown coated pony with a darker brown mane runs out holding a metal rod with a green tip. You know this pony is the Doctor, and that right there is his sonic screwdriver. You were quite happy to see him. You follow him into the basement. "Now, I want you to listen carefully. I know you may not fully trust me but I need you to bite that green wire to cut it. I know it will shock, but-" you don't let him finish before you to the batarang that cuts the green wire. "Your costume and theme remind me of a hero in comic books in my universe." "That's where I got the idea." You say. You explain your story, and even how he was a fictional character in your universe. He questions how you got here and why it worked. You all talk for a while, almost forgetting the bomb. When you remember, there is 20 minutes left. Whoops. "Alright. I'll open the box with my sonic and see if it really is explosive." As he does, you use your horn to unscrew the other two bolts. When you open it, it is empty. You begin to wonder when the Doctor begins to laugh. Uncontrollably. You run and swear under you breath. You use Spikes grapple hook to grab his leg and run carrying him. You close the door on your way out. You take him to Rarity and bite his leg. You explain quickly. Suddenly, you here a voice on your radio. It's the Prankster. "Oh, you shouldn't have done that. Now the bomb will go if in seconds instead of minutes." "The bomb only had gas in it. Not enough to to travel far." "Oh, you forget that bomb was ment to affect just two ponies. This one is explosive! Ten, nine, eight-" you dash for the building. You get there in two seconds. It takes just one to yell 'out'. It takes three for everyone to leave. It takes two for most ponies to run. One unlucky Lawyer who had been working on the bomb has gasoline on half of his body. His kindness to let every pony through the door before him would pay. The explosion sent glass flying. The fire had lit the pony on fire. Several ponies were hit by glass, but nothing could compare to the pain that pony felt. You ran to him hugged him to try and put out the fire, but it only lit you, too. You picked him up and ran to the fountain. You wouldn't let that pony die. You lept into the fountain your mask had burned half off, but that was nothing compared to that pony next to you. Half of his body was deformed, burnt, and melted. The other half was perfectly fine. You got the medical ponies to help him to the hospital. In that instant, sadness lead to hate. "That prissy little prankster going to get his sorry flank knocked out of orbit when I find him!" You yell. You run to the burning building. You find a message in a bottle coated in water. You read it. 'So you saved Rarity and Sweetie Belle. Delightful. But had you remembered the bomb, maybe that Lawyer wouldn't have suffered. I've decided I like this too much. It's hard to smile all the time, so I added a little make up for affect. I loved our little fight, but I must be off. Make sure you don't forget anything next time.' You boil with rage. When you found him you'd use him as a punching bag. You only just now realized your Mae was burnt. It was now permanently solid black. You were charred and bleeding, but you didn't care. That pony would suffer for his selfishness, while a poor Lawyer would suffer for his selflessness. You shed silent tears. You noticed that the building was still burning down. You walk into it. You see a small child huddled in the corner crying. You run and pick him up. You run out and take him to the hospital. They say he was uninsujured. You ask him where his parents are, and he tells you his daddy is in the bed next to him. You look over at the burnt pony. That man was a father. BlueBlood had bombed a building, injuring several. Had you not been there, these ponies would be dead. Had you not double checked the building, so would this child. Had you not run that pony to the fountain, he would have, you know. You leave the child to be with his dad. You notice everypony is outside the hospital. Even Rarity, Sweetie Belle, and the Doctor. Rarity said she saw the whole thing, the building from a distance, and one brave pony running to the fountain. She got there and saw it was you. She kissed you crying. You cried, too. You two held each other. The Doctor and Sweetie Belle cried, too. Rarity sobbed into your suit. You held her to your shoulder. You went back to her place. The gas had cleared out. She puts Sweetie Belle to bed, then asks you to sleep with her. "I must find BlueBlood, teach him his lesson." You tell her "I know for a fact he's far from here. He'll come back, but not tonight." She says. "You've done so much to help the city in one night. Just relax and lay down next to me. You make me feel safe. Please stay." "No sex. I will stay with you if it makes you feel safe. I'll wear my suit to assure it doesn't get out of hoof." You two lie down and kiss lovingly. You stroke her mane. You begin to rub her back. She kisses more passionately, as if to say 'yes, more.' You rub her back and her mane. You two stop kissing and just lye there cuddling. You can tell that she falls asleep peacefully. You gently kiss her ear and leave a note. 'Sorry I had to leave. In the morning I'll need to come out of my house as me like everypony else. You've seen my eyes, but that is all. If, somehow, you recognize me, and still like me, not out of trauma, then maybe we'll might again.' You leave through the window. The Doctor is outside waiting. "You took a while. I am assuming you comforted Rarity to sleep. You know, your hero may be BatColt, but your person isn't the friendless Bruce Wayne. You were quite the hero. Would you like to be my companion?" "I'd love to, but I must stay here and protect the city. I'll need some more gadgets and need to upgrade my suit." "Here, take this." He tosses you the TARDIS key. "For when your ready, or if you ever need to borrow it. Also, take this." He pulls out the 10th doctor's sonic screwdriver. "I got it repaired, but now I have a newer one, so you can have it." "Thank you so much Doctor. Do you not have a companion?" "No, I don't." "I think you should keep looking. You should never be alone." With that, you go on you way. It's three in the morning. You quickly but quietly put your stuff in you back pack. You sleep with the key on under your coat, though. You are quite greatful that Spike wasn't there. One, the danger. Two, the site of it. Three, his crush. You laid your head down to sleep as you heard the calming whoosh of the TARDIS engine. Author's Note Sorry I'm late! I would like to thank you all who have liked and favorited my story. I would also like to thank sidewalks, for keeping me off the streets. The Next Day"Comet? Wake up. Comet. Comet!" Twilight said. You wake up with Twilight at the side of your bed. You didn't get hardly any sleep, but you try to hide that. She looked concerned. "Everypony is talking about town hall. It's been burnt down! Some ponies say that a bo- what happened to your mane?" "What do you mean?" You ask. You quickly remember last night, but try to seem confused. You look up to your mane and see the charred black color. You jump out of bed in faux surprise. "What the heck?!?" "We'll figure it out later. Anyways, ponies from town hall say that the Prankster blew it up. They also say one pony was burnt. Half of his body was burnt. They say a brave hero saved him, otherwise he might have died. They say he also saved Rarity. I need to talk to her. I figured you and Spike would want to come with me." "Sure. She must be traumatized. I'd love to finally meet her." You look over at Spike, who seems to have just woken up. He remembers last night, then pretends to be shocked. "Is Rarity okay? We have to save her!" He yells, rather convincingly. "She's fine, at least according to authorities." Explains Twilight. "Let's go pay her a visit. We should check up on her and ask about this mysterious stallion." You three begin to walk over to Rarity's. Spike seems to remember something. "I never got your name." He says to you. You realize you went through saving Twilight and Rainbow Dash, then commencing to save Rarity and SweetieBelle without telling the dragon your name. "I'm Imagine Comet. Sorry I forgot to mention it." You then remember Spike wasn't there for the bomb. That was why he released a large gasp when you all saw town hall from a distance. Twilight was wide eyed and mouth gaped. You stood in awe. Not fake awe, just awe. The place was gone, except for a pile of wood and positions that didn't burn. You all approach Rarity's she was standing at the door. She let you all in, greeting Twilight and Spike when you entered, she looked at you with curiosity. You all go in. She asks who you are, and Twilight answers. You looked up from the ground and made accidental eye contact with Rarity. She had a look a realization in her eye, but quickly faked curiosity. "So, Twilight, may I ask why you walked in with him?" Rarity asked, just curious of her and a stallion she had never seen before walking in together. "He was..... helping us look for you!" She said. She didn't want to explain your human to pony trip. "So are you okay?" "Yes of course. I might not have been if it weren't for the handsome stallion by the name of BatColt. He fought the Prankster with a handsome assistant who went by Dragonwing." "Spike! You snuck out to fight a criminal! You could have been hurt!" You acted surprised, but the I told you so meter in you head was off the charts. "No Twilight, that was just the pony's hero name." Rarity said. Had you not been there, you'd have believed her. She was an amazing liar. "There was a bomb in the basement, too, but the stallion disarmed it. That had activated the bomb in town hall. Had he not been there, everypony there would have died. Thanks to him, only one was seriously injured." "Wow! What'd he look like? Was he pegasus, unicorn, or earth pony?" "The oddest thing. He was covered head to hoof in costume, but you could see his wings and horn." Rarity then had a quick realization. "Alicorn? How?" "I was about to say the same thing. I'll go home and grab a book on Alicorn history." She ran off. "Okay, how'd you have a horn then, and not one now?" Rarity asked. "I engineered one. I used it for throwing batarangs, but I never realized it would disguise me. By the way, thanks for having Spike and I's back." You say. You knew she knew it was you from your eyes, so why hide. "It's not nice to leave a lady for another in the middle of the night." She whispered. "I was staying with Twilight, and she'd suspect me if I wasn't there. And it was separate beds." You whisper back. You then go back to normal talk. "How's SweetieBelle?" As if in response, she run down the stairs and sees you and Spike. She assumes that since Twilight isn't here, you and Spike are here together, only explanation being you we're BatColt. You could really read facial expressions. "Oh my gosh it's you! BatColt!" She yelled in excitement. "Thank you! Thank you sooo much. I'm going to tell the cmc about you!" "The who?" You ask. "The Cutie Mark Crusaders!" "Okay. Don't tell Twilight that I'm BatColt, okay?" "Okay! I don't even know your name, so how-" at that moment, Twilight walks in with know book. "There is no Alicorn history book. I have a letter for Celestia to ask. Spike?" Spike took the letter and burned it. "Spike! She was going to send that to the Princess! Why'd you burn it?" You say. SweetieBelle and Twilight crack up. Rarity giggles, the explains. "Darling, that is how he sends letters." You then giggle at yourself. That is kind of funny for you to have freaked out. Then, four ponies walk in the door. RainbowDash, Pinkie pie, and two others all had worried faces. One pony was orange with yellow mane. She wore a cowgirl hat. The other was a very shy looking light yellow coated pony with a light pink mane. Behind them entered to fillies. One was yellow coated with a red mane and a large red bow. The other had an orange coat with messy red mane. They didn't have their cutie marks, so you guess they are the cmc. Every pony looked at Rarity concerned, then you confused. Two didn't know you, and two were looking at your mane. The cmc were all chatting with SweetieBelle. They all first asked Rarity if she was okay. She replied yes. Then, came the complicated part. "Rarity, is this another one of you suitors?" Asked the orange pony. Apple cutie mark, you note. "No AppleJack, this is Twilight and I's new friend. He helped us look for Rarity. Didn't work well, but she's safe now, so something happened." Said Rainbow Dash. "If you don't mind me asking, what happened?" Spoke the yellow mare. Three pink butterflies. "I don't mind, Fluttershy. I'll tell." Rarity said. She told the story. Everypony looked at Spike with Dragonwing, and your i told you so meter explodes. She finishes the story, leaving everypony shocked. "Was he an Alicorn, like the Mayor said?" Asked AppleJack. Your mind races. 'The mayor said what!?!' You think. Everypony in town must know by now. You let that slide as not to blow your cover. "Yes, he was. He was quite handsome, too." Said Rarity. You do everything you can not to blush. Nopony notices. "I housed him when he and Sp- his assistant while they waited for the right time." Said Pinkie Pie. She almost blew Spike's cover, which could blow your cover, too. Twilight noticed, but kept quiet. "What happened to your mane, Comet?" Asked Rainbow Dash. "I don't know." You say. As usual, she doesn't buy it. "Sure." She said rolling her eyes. You remember that Spike, Rarity, SweetieBelle, and Pinkie know who you are, and Rainbow has made everypony else suspicious. You try to to think of an excuse, when Rarity looks at you. 'You can trust them, they're my friends. Some are yours, too.' She says with her eyes. You sigh. "I am BatColt, and Spike is Dragonwing." You say. Rainbow Dash makes a noise you assume means she approves. Twilight, AppleJack, and Fluttershy gasp. The other three nod. The cmc all run up to you. "Wow! That's awesome! Your a super hero!" They say in unison. "You know Fluttershy, Pinkie, AppleJack, and I were, too. We were Mare Do Well." Said Twilight. "Sure, but he fought a villain and saved a burning man, as well as deactivate a bomb and save ponies from another. You all just stopped accidents." Said Scootaloo. "Hey they saved people's lives and prevented disasters! I say that's heroic." You say. Twilight then looks at Spike. "You could have been hurt!" She says. She turns to you. "You got him involved! Do you know how reckless you were being!?!" Then to Rarity and Pinkie. "You all lied to me!" She begins to cry. "Who can I trust?" You walk over and comfort her. "This is my fault, not there's. if I hadn't gotten Spike into this, they wouldn't have had to lie. Blame me, not them. Rarity took him inside to protect him the night of the fight. I was being selfish making him help me." You say. "No, I came with him willingly to fight! He didn't make me. He needed me for costumes and planing. I helped, and I wasn't injured." Said Spike. "And you were not selfish. You saved ponies! You took a blow to the head for me and had your mane burnt lack to save some pony you didn't know. That is selfless." Defended Rarity. "You even talked some since into me that night." Whispered Pinkie Pie. Everypony walked over to Twilight for a group hug. With that, Rarity snuck you a kiss and winked. Just then, Celestia and Luna walked in. "Twilight, we got your letter. Male Alicorn?" Said Celestia. Oh no, this will take a while to explain. The thought was neutral as everypony sighed. You began the story. By the end, they were both shocked. Then Luna spoke. "Have you told them all who the Prankster was?" She asked. "Oh yeah, I forgot." You say. You and Rarity turn to everypony and in sync, say this. "BlueBlood." Everypony gasped. The rest of the morning was just basic chat about the previous evening. You signed autographs for the cmc with your artificial horn. You put on the costume and showed every pony the basement. You made sure that nopony outside could see you. You spent the rest of the day going around hearing rumors of the BatColt. You went back to the Library to rest after lunch. That night you looked in to the sky, seeing beatiful stars. You then gasped as you saw in the sky, the beautiful shape of a bat. The bat signal. You knew this was the beginning of an exciting new triple life. Author's Note I'm sorry I took so long. This is the end. I may do a sequel if I get enough comments to do so. Comment on what you thought. UpdateRead the Authors note. Author's Note I have changed a large amount of the story line, so I am going to let people know.
Prologue Prologue Prologue: Your current living state Your name is Tom Folk. You are 18 years old, a relaxed soon to be student at U of MS (university of magic and science). At this school, you study sciences and the relations to magic. You got a full scholarship because of your amazing studies on magical creatures and the scientific possibility of their existence. You also wish to study alternate universe theories. You believe somewhere, there are universes just like ours, except that the dominant species are other creature (say ponies or dogs or even dragons). You also believe they'd have talking abilities as well. You are also quite good at mechanics. You figure that this will help with your studies. Devices to simulate creatures or open portals would be cool. It is late June in the summer. You live in Kentucky (the blue grass state, also known for horses), so it is usually pretty nice out this time of year. You are living in a house only a street or two away from the university. It is one story with a basement. You own this house with out having to pay for the house it self. It was abandoned, so you moved in without having to consult the government. You knew the family that abandoned it, and they loved the idea of you owning it. For indoor plumbing and electricity, your mechanics came in handy. You have solar panels for electricity, and the university let you use their showers. For toiletry and hand washing, you used the conveniently close forest and stream in the backyard of your house. (Yeah, your house is at the outskirts of a forest, deal with it!) Your house is gray bricked on the outside. Your front door enters to your living room. It is pretty basic. There is a red couch on the left wall and an hd tv on the right. There is a hall way to the right that leads to your bedroom. It has a bed and a couple posters of Doctor who and Batman. To the left of the living room is a small kitchen. It has a microwave built into the wall, a stove under the counter, and a toaster on the counter above the stove. The fridge is on the opposite side of the kitchen with a cabinet for non refrigerated goods. In the basement, which you left locked, was your mechanics and sketching room. In there, you built devices and wrote and drew schematics, as well as mythical creatures. Though your book shelf upstairs held basic novels, the one down here held your journals and reference guides. That left only groceries, tv, and laundry your only expenses. There is a laundry mat near by the university, and there was a near by Target as well. To pay for these, you work shifts at the college library, and mow lawns of near by houses. Most college expenses will be covered by your scholarship, but your college fund saved up for you by your parents. With your parents recently departed to heaven, you gained quite a lot of money, considering your a college student. You work the jobs, still, because you are using some the will money to build a portal. Some of the money also helps pay for the satellite for tv. You keep it hidden in your basement, so no one can find it. You have gotten quite close to finishing it. You've also made it accessible via watch, for when your on the other side. You start classes in late August. Today, your portal is ready to be tested. Author's Note Let me know what you think. This is my first fanfic, so I'm open for ideas and constructive criticism. Also, am I aloud to use brand names? Sorry this hasn't gotten to MLP yet, but I must introduce "you". Next chapter will hop right in. Tell me if you enjoyed this because I'd love to know.
The Portal (altered)You come home from mowing the lawns of your neighborhood, sweaty but still strong and able. You grab your tool box and head down stairs. You make sure that you are wearing your watch. Not just any old watch, the watch that controls the portal. Last week you tested it out on a rat you caught outside the stream. You wore the watch, but attached the wrist band that warped you back once you were there. The rat survived the trip, but it came back with a human with mint green hair and a white stripe in it, who seamed very happy to be here. She ran out of your house and you haven't seen her since. You make sure you have a back pack containing a ten dollar bill. You use a backpack because you figure if you transform to fit the universe, you might not have fingers. Imagine opening a wallet without fingers. Also, if your money transforms, you don't know the exchange rate.You also bring your phone(in the backpack), a water bottle (ditto), some robotic parts (ditto), and a black cape (in backpack). You put on the fore mentioned band and activate the portal. You begin to see white, and wonder if your dead. Then, as you spin, you realize you wouldn't be feeling spinning if you were dead. You feel weightless and yet heavy as black matter at the same time. You then appear on the ground. You don't fall or stumble, you're just there. You wake up, realizing you must have been knocked out at sometime. You open your eyes and see a cyan Pegasus standing over you. She has a rainbow mane. You soon realize that you don't have hands or feet. Your head is different but you can't put your nonexistent finger on it. You also notice you have a tail now. You have fur and a mane instead of hair. Your fur is dark blue, you mane as shaggy as your hair and the same ginger-now red- hair. Or mane, as it is now. Then comes the best part. You feel new appendages. Could they be as you always have dreamed? You look and see on your pony side... "Wings! I have wings! This is amazing!" You couldn't contain it. You look back up to the Pegasus standing above you. She gives you a look like you just spat up on yourself like a baby. "Yes, you do. Um...... Where'd you come from? And why are you just realizing your wings?" She asks. Her voice for a moment almost made you think she was a guy. Her raspy voice could have been either sex. You notice her build is different than yours, sort of like human girls, so you assume she's female. "Did you hit your head or something?" "Um....yeah." You say "TWILIGHT! There's a suspicious pony out here!" She yells. You look over and notice that a couple of yards away is a giant tree. Then, finally, it hits you! "You're a Pegasus! I'm a Pegasus! We're Pegasi! We're ponies!" She looks at you with the same look from earlier. A purple unicorn trots out of the tree. "Oh my god you're a unicorn! A purple unicorn! Who lives in a tree! This is amazing!" She trots over and looks at you with the same look. Then, the adrenaline stops. "Oh gosh, was that me? So sorry. Must be side affects to the portal." "Portal? Rainbow dash, get off of him so he can stand." Spoke the unicorn. With all the new stuff, the talking isn't a surprise. She looks over you and you see a look in her eye. 'What was that look'? She seemed to note something. She seemed interested in what you said and your confusion. You begin to notice her. Her coat was light purple, her mane dark with one strand of pink. On her rear you notice a six pointed star. On Rainbow dash, as she was called, was a cloud with rainbow lightning. On yours is- Before you can look, the unicorn slaps you, then so does Rainbow dash. You realize that you had looked at their butts, which, no matter what creature you are, is frowned upon. Then, the unicorn realizes something by the looks of it. "Oh you were looking at out cutie marks!" She says realizing her mistake. "I thought you were..." She blushes and helps you up. She wraps her hoof around your, which seems to work as a grip somehow. "I'm sorry. My name is Twilight Sparkle, and this is Rainbow dash. What's you name?" "Oh, I'm-" "Imagine Comet." Says Rainbow. You know your name is Tom Folk, but this sounds right, too. It must be your pony name. Then you wonder how she knew that. Almost as if she read you mind, she says "It says so on your saddle bag." You remember your name was on your back back, so it must have become a saddle bag. You look to your rear and see your cutie mark. It is a comet with a rainbow tail. It has several mythical creatures on it. You realize cutie marks must be your special talent. "Here, lets all go inside my place to talk about all this." You follow, your eyes glancing at the tree. You are curious to what lies inside. Author's Note I feel good about this chapter, but I want to hear about it. If I messed up anything, you have an idea, or even just want to comment on my writing abilities good or bad, I'd love to hear.
The Library (altered)As Twilight leads you into the tree, you are amazed. You see that the tree has been hollowed out. The walls contain hundreds of books. She leads you and Rainbow to a staircase leading to yet another room filled with books. This floor has books in the walls, but most are on the floor, being read you guess. There was a shorter case leading to an elevated platform. It had two beds and one basket at the foot of one bed. There was a small kitchen with a wooden table and a couple of cabinets. There's a photo of six ponies, two of which were sitting at the table. You sat down with them, trying to figure out why your "saddle bag" was so heavy. "All right! Spill it!" Demanded Rainbow Dash. You gave her a confused look. She sighed. "Explain you appearing from nowhere and acting so strange, acting like you were new to being a Pegasus." She clarified "Believe it or not, I'm new to being pony entirely." You state. Both of their jaws dropped. Twilight speaks. "So, you used to be another creature? Which one? How'd you change shape, and how pony?" "First, yes. Second, a creature you may have studied called homo-sapiens. Third, I think it was because of the portal. Forth, using logic, I believe it is because humans are the dominant species where I come from." Rainbow Dash just looks confused. Twilight thinks about it. She runs off. You assume to get a book. Rainbow Dash takes this as a chance to talk to you and get clarification "Ok, now in English." She says, obviously lost. You explain. "I used a science device to come here from a universe only spoken about in theories in this universe. I changed to a pony because in our universe, we run society the same as you do, so our species are equal. Though, it looks as if we have more advanced technology. However, with Twilight allowing a total stranger to enter her home, i assume there is a pretty large lack of crime." Twilight comes back with a book, titled The Alternate Universes and other multiverse theories. "I remember reading about humans. They seemed so much more capable that I thought it was illogical. Normally I wouldn't believe such a tale, but since you appeared from nowhere, I guess it's better to just believe you." She immediately turns excited and curious. This happens so fast you almost fall over. "So what's it like being human. Having fingers to pick stuff up. Also, it says you evolved from monkeys. Is that true? Oh I have so many questions!" You begin to answer when a purple and green dragon runs in, out of breath. "Twilight" puff "prankster" gasp "Rarity" and then passes out. You go help him up. So does Rainbow. Twilight gets him some water. "Who is this?" You ask. "This is my number one assistant, Spike. He was helping Rarity with something. I don't know what it was, but he seems tired out from it." When he wakes up he seems calm. Then a look of worry slams his face. "Rarity! She's been foal napped!" "By who? Do you know?" Asks Twilight. You can see everyone else is worried. Rarity must be important. "Who's Rarity?" You ask. "Who are you?" Asks Spike. "We don't have time for this! Who foal napped Rarity?" Asked Twilight "There was a ransom note back at the shop we can go get, but I remember the name. It said it was from the Prankster." Author's Note What do you think? I know I got 4 dislikes at least, so please tell me why. I want to know. Thank you for the favorites, those who did. You know who you are. Please comment.
The Laughing Fit (altered)"The Prankster? What kind of a villain name is that? It's pathetic!" Said Rainbow Dash. You four (Spike, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, and you) are headed to Rarity's. It wasn't very far away, but you can fly, so of course it's not hard to get there. Speaking of which, you're flying! It feels amazing! Wind through your mane, your hooves off the ground. Your wings you thought would be hard to control. It takes no effort whatsoever once your off the ground. You do flips and dives and kicks, while staying in pace with everyone- or every pony- else. "You know, I agree with Rainbow Dash. The Prankster? That can't be a real villain, by the name it's just a pranking pony." Then it hits you, knocking you to the ground. Two things, actually. One, is realization. The other, is Rainbow Dash, who stopped moving. Out of nowhere, she started laughing. She cracked up. Twilight, on the other hand, was very concerned. (Note: Twilight was behind Rainbow. She is closer to the building. When you fell, you landed next to Twilight. Spike is on her back.) "Rainbow Dash! This isn't funny! You could have knocked him out!" No response but laughter. Now very worried about Rainbow, she turns her around. You notice that Rainbow never turned to laugh at you. She just laughed. You then notice the white aura around the building. It was very hard to notice but you see it there. As soon as Twilight touches the aura, she laughs, too. Spike is about to help but you stop him. "I think that white aura is protecting the building. I guess it's so know one could look for evidence." Spike looks worried. He grabs Twilights leg and pulls her out. She doesn't stop. You carefully grab Rainbows tail and pull it out Rainbow. Ditto. "What do we do?" "I'll go find Zecora. She knows all about curses and spells and stuff. You check the library." Spike says. "I'll take Twilight with me to show Zecora." "No, you couldn't carry her. Rainbow is still flying, so you could just pull her along. Where does Zecora live?" "In the Everfree forest. I know it's dangerous, but I have to save my friends." "I can fly, so I could get there quicker. I should show Zecora both. But how?" "I know! I know! Take the hot air balloon! Wait! I haven't seen you here before. Are you knew? If you new that means you don't have any friends. I guess you've already met Twilight and Rainbow. They're fun. I-" the pink pony appeared out of nowhere and wouldn't shut up. Spike eventually covered her mouth and whispered the situation in her ear. She fainted. Thank God. "I'll go find the balloon and fly it around above the Everfree forest." You went and saw no one at the balloon so you just took it. There was a sign that said 10 bits, so you reached in to grab your 10 when you felt mini gold coins. You assumed these were the bits. You had about 200. The rate must have been 5 cents is one bit. You left ten and flew above the forest. You noticed a tree shorter than the others. That was her house. You flew down, tied the balloon to a tree. You just now realize it was quiet. Too quiet. You look in the ballon and they are both KO'd. You run in and see the zebra. "Zecora! Twilight and Rainbow were hit by a spell that made them laugh themselves uncontious! Yes, you don't know me, but you know them. Please help!" You quickly blurted out. She walked out to see them. You explain what happened. Afterwards, she stated a simple sentence and went back inside. "If your friends yo wish to wake, you must give them a start or shake." You follow her back in. "So, surprise them awake." "I believe your statement to be true, do to them they'd not expect from you." "Got it." You walk outside. 'Well, I could slap them. They'd not expect that.' You think to yourself. You slap Rainbow Dash. She immediately wakes up and looks at you angrily. You quickly explain and she believes you skeptically. You tell her to go see Zecora. You then slap Twilight. She doesn't wake. You slap her again. Nothing. "Zecora!" You yell. "It's not working on Twilight." Rainbow Dash walks out. "Zecora says the same cure from the same person won't work twice." "Well then, what should I do?" "What's the cure?" "Do something they'd never expect. You could slap her." "She might expect that from me." "You could say you hate her." "That's already happened. Long story." Then a devious look appears on her face. "What?" "You could kiss her." If you had been drinking something, it'd be all over Rainbow Dash right now. "Why not you?" "Your a guy, so it's less sick" "She'd expect it less." "But she's known me for a while. You two just met." You've run out of excuses. "Alright, fine." You quickly give Twilight a peck on the cheek. Nothing. "It's got to be on the lips genius." You give her a quick peck on the lips. Nothing. "I don't know if I should be bragging that I was right or scared she expected that." "Zecora said a BIG surprise. Make it emotional! Passionate!" "You know, you could kiss her. You're being so enthusiastic!" "No, you need to kiss her. She thinks I'm lesbian, so it wouldn't be shocking." You sigh. You lean in and plant one on her lips. You wait a little while, then here a surprised, muffled noise. Twilight woke up. You back off, noticing the huge amount of laughter in the background. Rainbow Dash was dying of laughter. she was even crying you saw, when you turned around to scowl. You and Twilight both scowled with blushed cheeks. you noticed the slightest look in her eye, a sign of slight enjoyment, total surprise. You had to admit, it wasn't horrible. It felt great, but that was still probably the most awkward thing ever. so, why not make it worse. "Well Dash, looks like you missed you chance with this single dude-uh-stallion." You say, earning a laugh from Dash and an even redder blush from Twilight. "Relax Twilight, I'm joking." She laughs, too. "Well, looks like my cure idea worked!" Bragged Rainbow Dash. "After at least three try's!" You respond. Twilight eyes widen in surprise. She then laughs it off. "Thank you, but what happened?" She asks. You explain. You all head back to the Library. By the time you get back, it's late. A problem then hits you: Where are you going to stay? You ask Rainbow and Twilight if they no any place with free overnight staying. "Well, you could stay at my place. I only have one bed, so you'd have to sleep on the couch." Suggest Rainbow. "Actually, I have a second bed. You can stay here Imagine, if you want." Suggest Twilight. "Thanks for the offer Rainbow, but I'll stay with Twilight. She has a spare bed after all." You say. You all go home and rest. You prepare yourself for some adventure tomorrow.
The PlanYou and spike sneak out of the library. You had filled your bed with books to make it look like you were still there sleeping in case Twilight woke up. You and Spike both knew that You had to save Rarity as soon as possible. He had shown you the photo of her, or really the photo of Twilights best friends with her in it. You had to admit, she was pretty hot, for a pony. You had passed a mechanics shop that said open all night. You kept that in mind. When you arrive a Rarity's boutique, you see the spell is gone. Just to double check, you threw a rat. It doesn't laugh. You head in side and see a huge mess of fabric and half made dresses. In the clutter you see a note. You read it out loud. "'Dear Reader, I have Rarity. You all know that the elements of harmony won't work without her present, as well as the fact that most stallions, and even some mares, would give anything to be with her. There is also the fact that she is the towns most well known seamstress. If you ever wish to see her alive, a fee of 1,000,000 bits must be paid. If and additional 1,000,000 is paid, i won't set off the bomb I planted in town hall. I will be at her boutique at 2:00 am on the 20th of this month. If the police show up, I'll blow the place to smithereens. Yes, I have a bomb here, too. Love, The Prankster. P.S. I have Sweetie Belle, too.'" After Spike quickly explains who Sweetie Belle is, what he elements of harmony are, and what day it is (the 19th at 9:45 pm), you understand the situation. "We have to the pay 2,000,000 bits!" Spike says. "No, we need to find a way to get Rarity without paying." "How! It's not like there's some super hero we can call. Mare do well retired after a few days." "Sounds like a weak super hero." You remember this morning's discovery. "What we need is a hero who will strike fear into the hearts of villains, a hero to stand for justice. We need.... Bat Colt!" "Oh I like the sound of that. But who- wait, you can't be seriously thinking- can I help?" "Sure. I'll be Bat Colt, you can be Dragon wing. The only problem is everypony will know its you." "If we can save Rarity, I don't care or all of Equestria knows I am." "That's the spirit. I saw a mechanic shop not too far from here. I have an idea. Wait here." You quickly fly low to the ground, but fastly, to the store. You buy a large box of stuff only costing 10 bits. You get back and begin to work. First, you build a small cone that works off of your thoughts. You can use it to levitate objects. It's like a unicorn's horn. With that you begin to build gadgets. Spike gets to work on costumes. His work with Rarity really paid off. He knew how to make the costumes in a snap. You easily create several gadgets. One is a grappling hook, because Spike can't fly. Another is a boomerang in the shape of a bat. You make 20 of those for each of you. You build boots of titanium, so that if you need to come in for quick landing, it won't hurt. You make them so that they can stay in one place on slanted roofs. You build a cowl made of a strong substance that obsorbes shock. If you get in a fight, this will protect your head. You even have net grenades. you throw one and insteed of exploding it spreads to a net. You get out your cape you brought with you. You then help Spike design his cape to glide if he jumps. You make shoes and a cowl for him, too. Spike's costumes look amazing. Your's is flexible for combat and getting around, but as spikes on the arms to help in hand to hand. It had a bat shaped creast on your chest. Your cape is cut to look like a bat when you glide. Spike has a mask, and decides to where his cowl only for protection. His costume has a red phoneix as a creast. His has red lines in a cool unpatterned way. "At 1:00 the Prankster will probably come by to be ready. He will be holding the detonator no doubt. I'll knock it out of is grasps with a batarang. Then, we improvise. Before then, I will take the ransom letter to townhall. Then, I'll tell them I ave this handled, but I'll use the radio in my cowl to keep contact. Once Rarity is safe, you take her and Sweetie Belle inside. I'll take the Prankster to jail." You explain. "What do we do now?" Spike asks. "We set wheels in motion." Author's Note Comment please.
The Plans Execution (altered)You walk into town hall. The secretary looks up from her work and looks back down calmly. You wait a moment, then she looks back up scared. She pulls out a radio communicator. "Security!" She calls. You had hoped that you could just give her the ransom note and explain. You run out the door and fly in an open second door window. You see the mayor there. It is obviously the mayor because she has a desk top name card that says Mayor Mare. She is surprised by your entrance, so you quickly explain. "I'm BatColt, and there has been a threat made against town hall. Here is the ransom note I discovered at the boutique." The Mayor quickly reads over it. "I will handle the villain. If you would like, I will keep in contact via radio. I'll set your radio to the correct frequency." You do. "I will tell you if I need back up. Go ahead and have a bomb squad on speed dial, as well as the prison. I'll send word when I have the Prankster." "I don't mean to be rude, but that would be if you catch him. Who are you anyhow?" Asked the Mayor. "I'm BatColt!" And with that you do a back flip out the window. You then glide to the ground after turning right side up. You sneak by the houses to the Botique. You then try and think of what to do for the next several ours. It was only 10:00. You decide to find somewhere to sleep. You tell Spike. "We can't go back to the Library. Two ways we could get caught. Also, we need to stay in costume to be ready." Says Spike. "Also, not here. The Prankster will be here guarding the place." "How about the mechanics shop?" "Some pony might see us." "How about Sugar Cube Corner? I could hide you two there! I'll wake you up at 12:30!" The pink pony from earlier suggested. Pinkie pie, as Spike told you when explaining the Elements of Harmony. "Pinkie, were you here the whole time?" You ask. "Well, duh. I want to save Rarity, too. By the way, nice costume Spike. You too pony from earlier. I never got your name." "I must hide my identity, even from you. Sorry, but it'll save your life." "It's okay, I know about secret identities. I was Mare Do Well. Well, one Mare Do Well. There were four." "Anyway, can you really hide us at sugarcube corner?" Asked Spike "Sure! I'll feed you, too, if you'd like." "Great! Thank you Pinkie! I don't know how to repay you." You say. "Hey, what're friends for?" You all head back to sugar cube corner. She lets you use her bed, and Spike use a spare basket. She went and slept in the baby room. You had a pleasent dream. Sadly, you can't remember it when you wake up. Pinkie woke you up at 12:00. "Pinkie, you said 12:30." You say gently, not to hurt her feelings. "I know, but I wanted to ask you something." She says. "Okay, shoot." "Do you think I'm pretty?" "Yes, why?" "Because I just now realized that I'm friends with everypony in town, but not a single one is semi interested in me." "Pinkie, that can't be true. You're pretty, kind, outward, very jumpy." "But because of the last one, nopony would consider me in anyway romantic." "There has to be somepony." "Would you consider kissing me and doing romantic stuff with me, in theory." "I would, but I don't feel that way about you. Some pony has to, though." "That's just it, nopony feels that way about me." "I'm sure they do, but maybe they're to shy to say so." "Your right! Some pony must like me and be too shy to say so! Thank you sooooo much!" You hadn't noticed earlier, but her hair had been down and straight. It was now poofy and curly like it used to. "Glad I could-" you get cut short by Pinkie pulling your face to hers and kissing you. It was quick, but it felt great. "-help." You quickly fall back asleep. A half hour later, you wake up. This time it's Spike. "Let's get something real quick to eat before we leave." He says. Pinkie had laid out two cupcakes for you. You took the red velvet, Spike took the strawberry. You two relaxed for a bit, then stretched. Before you knew it, it was 12:45. You and Spike sneak to the Botique. Spike grapples to the roof, you fly. A short time later, you see a white pony with a green mane with a white horn. It wore a purple tux with a flower in one pocket. He had two ponies tied together in a cart. One was a white mare with oddly perfectly styled amethyst mane. The other was a white foal pink and light purple mane. They were both terrified. The Prankster had a remote with a large red button on it. Also in the cart was an oversized mallet and a gun. When he gets to he front of the Botique, you ready you Batarang. You had been practicing earlier. You fin it is easier to aim with your hoof than your mechanical horn. You make sure that it will slice the remote in half, or at least not hit the button when it gets knocked from his hand. You throwing and hope for the best. It knocks the remote clear from the Prankster's grasp. It breaks when it hits the ground you leap with your hind leg aimed for his head. He looks up just in time to see you kick him. He is knocked to the side. You quickly get another batarang and cut the ropes holding the ponies together. "Thank you, mysterious bat pony!" Says Sweetie Belle. She runs inside. Rarity looks at you. "Who are you?" "I'm BatColt. I'm here to help you. Run inside and watch the young mare. Dragon wing and I have this handled." As if on cue, Spike landed next to you. "Spike? What are you doing? You could get hurt!" Rarity says. "I told you the disguise wouldn't work for you." You tell him. "He was so upset about your disappearance that he insisted on helping save you." You then feel a huge pain in your skull. You fall over and notice that the Prankster was back up. He is about to hit Spike when Rarity kicks him with her hind legs so hard he dents the tree he crashes into. You use your artificial magic and quickly throw a batarang at him. It knocks his hooves from under him and his head hits the ground. You get up and touch your head. You quickly pull away when you feel the pain. Your head is pulsing, but most of the pain is only felt when you touch it. Rarity quickly pulls Spike inside. The both watch at a window. Sweetie Belle is at the other window, closer to you. The prankster gets up and looks right at you. "Who is this Bat Freak? You can't stop my plans. I can still kill Rarity once you're dead! The bombs are on a timer to go off in an hour. Meanwhile, I can have fun killing you and your little Dragon. The other ponies will be a snap!" He speaks. His voice was obviously being faked. He tried to sound scratchy and evil, but you could tell that it used to be sophisticated. You can see that the green is a dye and that his mane used to be blonde. He runs at you magically levitating the mallet. You leap and fly over him, getting out a net grenade. You toss it at him and he is caught in the net. His flower squits out acid, and he escapes. "Mayor, the bomb is in the basement of each building. We have an hour. Hurry!" You quickly speak into the radio. The pony gasps as he notices your wings and horn. Seeing my blue coat, he then asks a question that reveals too much. "Is that you, auntie Luna?" He asks. "No matter who you are, you will not stop me from the task at hand!" You knew Luna and Celestia were the princesses of night and day. Spike mentioned them in the Elements of Harmony briefing. "BlueBlood?!?" Rarity yelled from the window. "Yes, it is I, Prince BlueBlood. You rejecting me drove me to insanity! So many mares saying I was self centered, selfish, and ungentlemanlike. I lost it. Now, I'll destroy you, and your precious-" you didnt let him finish. You had flown down to attack and started pounding him with punches. He had tried to kill people over his own behavior! You couldn't stand this. His nose began to bleed and he has a black eye. You figure he'll be uncontious for a while. You begin to talk via radio again. "I have the Prankster. I'll bring him by town hall." You then throw a net grenade and he is trapped in a net. "No, I'm not Luna." You say mostly to yourself. You fly him to the town hall where the Mayor and many Police are standing. You take the net up to them and drop it there. "You may want to call and tell Luna and Celestia their nephew tried to murder you all and Rarity and Sweetie Belle. I'll be off." With that, you rush to Rarity's house. Sweetie Belle and Spike were asleep on the floor. Rarity was levitating Sweetie Belle up stairs to her room. You are about to leave with Spike when Rarity notices. "Are you taking him to the Library? I think Spike would get in a lot of trouble if she knew he was out here. Leave him here. I'll say the Prankster came and got him in the night and you saved him, Sweetie Belle, and I. Thank you, by the way. How can I repay you." She said. She deductively batted her eyes. "No thanks nessicary. I did it for justice, not rewards." You respond. She walks over to pick up Spike. She takes him to a her room and sets him in her chair. When you guard is down, she quickly grabs your head and pulls it to hers. She kisses you, her tongue dancing on yours. You return the kiss and begin to gently stroke her mane. She lays down on the floor, as do you. You feel her warm coat next to yours. It feels wonderful. She slowly begins to kiss slower, until she, too, falls asleep. You unlock your lips and levitate her to her room. You wake up Spike, and you too sneak out. You and he get home and in bed at 1:30. You are about to take off your costume when it hits you. Still, is the basement of Raritys Botique, was a ticking time bomb.
The Bomb (altered)Flying at full speed, it felt like only five second from the Library to the Botique. When you get there, you run upstairs. You lift Sweetie Belle on you back and take her outside. You lay her on a bush a short ways from there. You do the same with Rarity, but she wakes up on the trip. Her kiss on the ear almost made your legs lose all feeling. You explain the situation then run back to the Botique. You contact the bomb squad via radio. They're having no luck. As if it couldn't get any worse, you only have half an hour until the bomb goes off. You see that the bomb is not the tiny tnt with a clock attached that you hoped for. You know nothing about disarming bombs, or telling their threat level. The bomb is a large box with a timer attached. You contact the Mayor, who says her local time keeper Time Turner will be right over. You don't see how this will help until you see a blue police box appear. A smile slowly forms on your face. A light brown coated pony with a darker brown mane runs out holding a metal rod with a green tip. You know this pony is the Doctor, and that right there is his sonic screwdriver. You were quite happy to see him. You follow him into the basement. "Now, I want you to listen carefully. I know you may not fully trust me but I need you to bite that green wire to cut it. I know it will shock, but-" you don't let him finish before you to the batarang that cuts the green wire. "Your costume and theme remind me of a hero in comic books in my universe." "That's where I got the idea." You say. You explain your story, and even how he was a fictional character in your universe. He questions how you got here and why it worked. You all talk for a while, almost forgetting the bomb. When you remember, there is 20 minutes left. Whoops. "Alright. I'll open the box with my sonic and see if it really is explosive." As he does, you use your horn to unscrew the other two bolts. When you open it, it is empty. You begin to wonder when the Doctor begins to laugh. Uncontrollably. You run and swear under you breath. You use Spikes grapple hook to grab his leg and run carrying him. You close the door on your way out. You take him to Rarity and bite his leg. You explain quickly. Suddenly, you here a voice on your radio. It's the Prankster. "Oh, you shouldn't have done that. Now the bomb will go if in seconds instead of minutes." "The bomb only had gas in it. Not enough to to travel far." "Oh, you forget that bomb was ment to affect just two ponies. This one is explosive! Ten, nine, eight-" you dash for the building. You get there in two seconds. It takes just one to yell 'out'. It takes three for everyone to leave. It takes two for most ponies to run. One unlucky Lawyer who had been working on the bomb has gasoline on half of his body. His kindness to let every pony through the door before him would pay. The explosion sent glass flying. The fire had lit the pony on fire. Several ponies were hit by glass, but nothing could compare to the pain that pony felt. You ran to him hugged him to try and put out the fire, but it only lit you, too. You picked him up and ran to the fountain. You wouldn't let that pony die. You lept into the fountain your mask had burned half off, but that was nothing compared to that pony next to you. Half of his body was deformed, burnt, and melted. The other half was perfectly fine. You got the medical ponies to help him to the hospital. In that instant, sadness lead to hate. "That prissy little prankster going to get his sorry flank knocked out of orbit when I find him!" You yell. You run to the burning building. You find a message in a bottle coated in water. You read it. 'So you saved Rarity and Sweetie Belle. Delightful. But had you remembered the bomb, maybe that Lawyer wouldn't have suffered. I've decided I like this too much. It's hard to smile all the time, so I added a little make up for affect. I loved our little fight, but I must be off. Make sure you don't forget anything next time.' You boil with rage. When you found him you'd use him as a punching bag. You only just now realized your Mae was burnt. It was now permanently solid black. You were charred and bleeding, but you didn't care. That pony would suffer for his selfishness, while a poor Lawyer would suffer for his selflessness. You shed silent tears. You noticed that the building was still burning down. You walk into it. You see a small child huddled in the corner crying. You run and pick him up. You run out and take him to the hospital. They say he was uninsujured. You ask him where his parents are, and he tells you his daddy is in the bed next to him. You look over at the burnt pony. That man was a father. BlueBlood had bombed a building, injuring several. Had you not been there, these ponies would be dead. Had you not double checked the building, so would this child. Had you not run that pony to the fountain, he would have, you know. You leave the child to be with his dad. You notice everypony is outside the hospital. Even Rarity, Sweetie Belle, and the Doctor. Rarity said she saw the whole thing, the building from a distance, and one brave pony running to the fountain. She got there and saw it was you. She kissed you crying. You cried, too. You two held each other. The Doctor and Sweetie Belle cried, too. Rarity sobbed into your suit. You held her to your shoulder. You went back to her place. The gas had cleared out. She puts Sweetie Belle to bed, then asks you to sleep with her. "I must find BlueBlood, teach him his lesson." You tell her "I know for a fact he's far from here. He'll come back, but not tonight." She says. "You've done so much to help the city in one night. Just relax and lay down next to me. You make me feel safe. Please stay." "No sex. I will stay with you if it makes you feel safe. I'll wear my suit to assure it doesn't get out of hoof." You two lie down and kiss lovingly. You stroke her mane. You begin to rub her back. She kisses more passionately, as if to say 'yes, more.' You rub her back and her mane. You two stop kissing and just lye there cuddling. You can tell that she falls asleep peacefully. You gently kiss her ear and leave a note. 'Sorry I had to leave. In the morning I'll need to come out of my house as me like everypony else. You've seen my eyes, but that is all. If, somehow, you recognize me, and still like me, not out of trauma, then maybe we'll might again.' You leave through the window. The Doctor is outside waiting. "You took a while. I am assuming you comforted Rarity to sleep. You know, your hero may be BatColt, but your person isn't the friendless Bruce Wayne. You were quite the hero. Would you like to be my companion?" "I'd love to, but I must stay here and protect the city. I'll need some more gadgets and need to upgrade my suit." "Here, take this." He tosses you the TARDIS key. "For when your ready, or if you ever need to borrow it. Also, take this." He pulls out the 10th doctor's sonic screwdriver. "I got it repaired, but now I have a newer one, so you can have it." "Thank you so much Doctor. Do you not have a companion?" "No, I don't." "I think you should keep looking. You should never be alone." With that, you go on you way. It's three in the morning. You quickly but quietly put your stuff in you back pack. You sleep with the key on under your coat, though. You are quite greatful that Spike wasn't there. One, the danger. Two, the site of it. Three, his crush. You laid your head down to sleep as you heard the calming whoosh of the TARDIS engine. Author's Note Sorry I'm late! I would like to thank you all who have liked and favorited my story. I would also like to thank sidewalks, for keeping me off the streets.
The Next Day"Comet? Wake up. Comet. Comet!" Twilight said. You wake up with Twilight at the side of your bed. You didn't get hardly any sleep, but you try to hide that. She looked concerned. "Everypony is talking about town hall. It's been burnt down! Some ponies say that a bo- what happened to your mane?" "What do you mean?" You ask. You quickly remember last night, but try to seem confused. You look up to your mane and see the charred black color. You jump out of bed in faux surprise. "What the heck?!?" "We'll figure it out later. Anyways, ponies from town hall say that the Prankster blew it up. They also say one pony was burnt. Half of his body was burnt. They say a brave hero saved him, otherwise he might have died. They say he also saved Rarity. I need to talk to her. I figured you and Spike would want to come with me." "Sure. She must be traumatized. I'd love to finally meet her." You look over at Spike, who seems to have just woken up. He remembers last night, then pretends to be shocked. "Is Rarity okay? We have to save her!" He yells, rather convincingly. "She's fine, at least according to authorities." Explains Twilight. "Let's go pay her a visit. We should check up on her and ask about this mysterious stallion." You three begin to walk over to Rarity's. Spike seems to remember something. "I never got your name." He says to you. You realize you went through saving Twilight and Rainbow Dash, then commencing to save Rarity and SweetieBelle without telling the dragon your name. "I'm Imagine Comet. Sorry I forgot to mention it." You then remember Spike wasn't there for the bomb. That was why he released a large gasp when you all saw town hall from a distance. Twilight was wide eyed and mouth gaped. You stood in awe. Not fake awe, just awe. The place was gone, except for a pile of wood and positions that didn't burn. You all approach Rarity's she was standing at the door. She let you all in, greeting Twilight and Spike when you entered, she looked at you with curiosity. You all go in. She asks who you are, and Twilight answers. You looked up from the ground and made accidental eye contact with Rarity. She had a look a realization in her eye, but quickly faked curiosity. "So, Twilight, may I ask why you walked in with him?" Rarity asked, just curious of her and a stallion she had never seen before walking in together. "He was..... helping us look for you!" She said. She didn't want to explain your human to pony trip. "So are you okay?" "Yes of course. I might not have been if it weren't for the handsome stallion by the name of BatColt. He fought the Prankster with a handsome assistant who went by Dragonwing." "Spike! You snuck out to fight a criminal! You could have been hurt!" You acted surprised, but the I told you so meter in you head was off the charts. "No Twilight, that was just the pony's hero name." Rarity said. Had you not been there, you'd have believed her. She was an amazing liar. "There was a bomb in the basement, too, but the stallion disarmed it. That had activated the bomb in town hall. Had he not been there, everypony there would have died. Thanks to him, only one was seriously injured." "Wow! What'd he look like? Was he pegasus, unicorn, or earth pony?" "The oddest thing. He was covered head to hoof in costume, but you could see his wings and horn." Rarity then had a quick realization. "Alicorn? How?" "I was about to say the same thing. I'll go home and grab a book on Alicorn history." She ran off. "Okay, how'd you have a horn then, and not one now?" Rarity asked. "I engineered one. I used it for throwing batarangs, but I never realized it would disguise me. By the way, thanks for having Spike and I's back." You say. You knew she knew it was you from your eyes, so why hide. "It's not nice to leave a lady for another in the middle of the night." She whispered. "I was staying with Twilight, and she'd suspect me if I wasn't there. And it was separate beds." You whisper back. You then go back to normal talk. "How's SweetieBelle?" As if in response, she run down the stairs and sees you and Spike. She assumes that since Twilight isn't here, you and Spike are here together, only explanation being you we're BatColt. You could really read facial expressions. "Oh my gosh it's you! BatColt!" She yelled in excitement. "Thank you! Thank you sooo much. I'm going to tell the cmc about you!" "The who?" You ask. "The Cutie Mark Crusaders!" "Okay. Don't tell Twilight that I'm BatColt, okay?" "Okay! I don't even know your name, so how-" at that moment, Twilight walks in with know book. "There is no Alicorn history book. I have a letter for Celestia to ask. Spike?" Spike took the letter and burned it. "Spike! She was going to send that to the Princess! Why'd you burn it?" You say. SweetieBelle and Twilight crack up. Rarity giggles, the explains. "Darling, that is how he sends letters." You then giggle at yourself. That is kind of funny for you to have freaked out. Then, four ponies walk in the door. RainbowDash, Pinkie pie, and two others all had worried faces. One pony was orange with yellow mane. She wore a cowgirl hat. The other was a very shy looking light yellow coated pony with a light pink mane. Behind them entered to fillies. One was yellow coated with a red mane and a large red bow. The other had an orange coat with messy red mane. They didn't have their cutie marks, so you guess they are the cmc. Every pony looked at Rarity concerned, then you confused. Two didn't know you, and two were looking at your mane. The cmc were all chatting with SweetieBelle. They all first asked Rarity if she was okay. She replied yes. Then, came the complicated part. "Rarity, is this another one of you suitors?" Asked the orange pony. Apple cutie mark, you note. "No AppleJack, this is Twilight and I's new friend. He helped us look for Rarity. Didn't work well, but she's safe now, so something happened." Said Rainbow Dash. "If you don't mind me asking, what happened?" Spoke the yellow mare. Three pink butterflies. "I don't mind, Fluttershy. I'll tell." Rarity said. She told the story. Everypony looked at Spike with Dragonwing, and your i told you so meter explodes. She finishes the story, leaving everypony shocked. "Was he an Alicorn, like the Mayor said?" Asked AppleJack. Your mind races. 'The mayor said what!?!' You think. Everypony in town must know by now. You let that slide as not to blow your cover. "Yes, he was. He was quite handsome, too." Said Rarity. You do everything you can not to blush. Nopony notices. "I housed him when he and Sp- his assistant while they waited for the right time." Said Pinkie Pie. She almost blew Spike's cover, which could blow your cover, too. Twilight noticed, but kept quiet. "What happened to your mane, Comet?" Asked Rainbow Dash. "I don't know." You say. As usual, she doesn't buy it. "Sure." She said rolling her eyes. You remember that Spike, Rarity, SweetieBelle, and Pinkie know who you are, and Rainbow has made everypony else suspicious. You try to to think of an excuse, when Rarity looks at you. 'You can trust them, they're my friends. Some are yours, too.' She says with her eyes. You sigh. "I am BatColt, and Spike is Dragonwing." You say. Rainbow Dash makes a noise you assume means she approves. Twilight, AppleJack, and Fluttershy gasp. The other three nod. The cmc all run up to you. "Wow! That's awesome! Your a super hero!" They say in unison. "You know Fluttershy, Pinkie, AppleJack, and I were, too. We were Mare Do Well." Said Twilight. "Sure, but he fought a villain and saved a burning man, as well as deactivate a bomb and save ponies from another. You all just stopped accidents." Said Scootaloo. "Hey they saved people's lives and prevented disasters! I say that's heroic." You say. Twilight then looks at Spike. "You could have been hurt!" She says. She turns to you. "You got him involved! Do you know how reckless you were being!?!" Then to Rarity and Pinkie. "You all lied to me!" She begins to cry. "Who can I trust?" You walk over and comfort her. "This is my fault, not there's. if I hadn't gotten Spike into this, they wouldn't have had to lie. Blame me, not them. Rarity took him inside to protect him the night of the fight. I was being selfish making him help me." You say. "No, I came with him willingly to fight! He didn't make me. He needed me for costumes and planing. I helped, and I wasn't injured." Said Spike. "And you were not selfish. You saved ponies! You took a blow to the head for me and had your mane burnt lack to save some pony you didn't know. That is selfless." Defended Rarity. "You even talked some since into me that night." Whispered Pinkie Pie. Everypony walked over to Twilight for a group hug. With that, Rarity snuck you a kiss and winked. Just then, Celestia and Luna walked in. "Twilight, we got your letter. Male Alicorn?" Said Celestia. Oh no, this will take a while to explain. The thought was neutral as everypony sighed. You began the story. By the end, they were both shocked. Then Luna spoke. "Have you told them all who the Prankster was?" She asked. "Oh yeah, I forgot." You say. You and Rarity turn to everypony and in sync, say this. "BlueBlood." Everypony gasped. The rest of the morning was just basic chat about the previous evening. You signed autographs for the cmc with your artificial horn. You put on the costume and showed every pony the basement. You made sure that nopony outside could see you. You spent the rest of the day going around hearing rumors of the BatColt. You went back to the Library to rest after lunch. That night you looked in to the sky, seeing beatiful stars. You then gasped as you saw in the sky, the beautiful shape of a bat. The bat signal. You knew this was the beginning of an exciting new triple life. Author's Note I'm sorry I took so long.
