The Super Avatar of Equestria

Black Will and I entered her house. She was trying to figure out what I had told her moments before.

“Are you serious? I can do whatever I want with you?” She asks for the millionth time. I just nod calmly at her. She seems to be panicking, but too many emotions are crossing over her eyes that it’s too hard to tell.

“Are you sure your special one won’t be mad?” I just shake my head. She starts to pace around her living room.

“Black, calm down. If you don’t want me here I can leave.”

“I want you here. I’m just trying to wrap my head around what you said, what it means.” I sigh and stand up.

“What it means is exactly how I said it. I’m willing to stay here for one night. In that time I will allow you to do whatever you want. I could make you a hot spring to relax in; I could make love with you. Anything you want or would like to have tonight is your decision to make.” I tell her as I lay my hand on her back.

“I-I-I w-won’t be making love with you. I’m too nice to ask something like that of you. I just want to be with you, and sleep in bed with you. Maybe have some fun at the lake with you or something.”

“I understand. I will do what you have asked, but first let me do something so I don’t look suspicious around you.”

“What are you going to do?”

“The spirits taught me how to transform into a different shape. So I’m going to transform into a griffon for the rest of the day and night.”

“You can do that?” She asks in shock. I just chuckle and nod my head. I then start to will myself into a griffon form, hoping my ability will allow it. I could feel my hands changing into talons, and I grew a lion’s tail.

When the transformation was done, I had black feathers with purple tips, and an ebony colored coat. I flex all my muscles one at a time to see how everything works. I then look up to Black Will and see her staring at me in disbelief.

“And I shocked her into silence.” I say aloud.

“No, I can still speak. I’m just amazed at you doing such a thing.” She answers.

“It really isn’t that hard. It is just a simple way to blend in if I don’t need others to be freaking out about what I am.”

“I could see how that could be a problem.”

“Yeah I even forgot about this ability until I told my special one I loved her.”

“Well I did the same thing as her right?”

“Yeah I guess you did.” I tell her with a warm smile. She smiles back at me.

“So what are we going to do with the rest of the day?” I ask her.

“We could go to the lake. I would like to see more bending.” She tell me.

“Sure. Let’s go.” I say as I head to the door

“You’re not going to change back?” She asks.

“Only if you want me to.” I tell her. She nods so I will myself to be human once more. I open her front door for her. She smiles and we head for the lake. Before I could get two steps away from the village I hear.

“Avatar Artermis!” I turn to see who called me. I see that it’s Phalanx, a royal guardsman. I stop and wait for him.

“Yes Phalanx?” I ask the guard.

“Princess Celestia has ordered me to retrieve you. She wants to speak with you.” I raise an eyebrow at this.

“What is the level of importance?” I ask him.

“Second to top sir.” He answers. I sigh and turn to Black Will.

“I’m sorry Black Will, but I need to take a rain check for our date.” She nods.

“I understand.” She tells me with a steeled face. But I could see the sadness in her eyes. I just smile and ruffle her head’s feathers. She giggles.

“Phalanx, I need to retrieve my hiking pack from her home. Where should we meet to head back to Canterlot?”

“At the Chariot, sir.” I nod and start heading back to Black Will’s home. I hold the door open for Black. I enter after her.

“When will you come back?” asks Black Will.

“When I have enough time away from my duties.” I reply as I hoist my bag onto my back. I look at Black Will. She is staring at the floor.

“Hey, I’ll try to come back. Then I will stay the night with you, okay?”

“Okay.” I nod.

“Want a goodbye hug?” I ask her. She nods. I could see her eyes watering up. I kneel down and she dives into my open arm. I wince a little when she pushes on my right arm. I just grin and bear it. After a few moments she pulled away. Tears were streaming down her face. I wipe away the tears with my left hand.

“I will return to see you again.” I say as I stand up to leave. I open her door and walk out.

I start searching for the chariot that Phalanx mentioned, and find it at the center of town. I walk up to Phalanx.

“Are you ready to leave Avatar?” He asks. I nod and climb into the chariot. We take off and head for Canterlot.

We arrived in Canterlot after thirty minutes of travel. We landed in the gardens. I jump off of the chariot, and enter the palace.

I’m escorted to the throne room where Celestia was sitting atop the throne. I bow when I got close enough to speak.

“You summoned me princess?” I ask her as I stand back up.

“Yes, I have a task for you to handle.”

“What is it?”

“I want you to accompany my student Twilight Sparkle to Ponyville. You are there to watch over her, and make sure nothing goes wrong with the Summer Sun Celebration.” She tells me. I raise an eyebrow at this.

“I don’t understand why I need to be there Princess.”

“This marks the thousandth celebration since I banished Nightmare Moon to the moon. She is to return before the dawn of the celebration.”

“You’re sister is returning tonight?” I ask. Once I said that I immediately regret it.

“How did you know that?” asks Celestia with her gaze boring into me skull. I feel a second presence in my mind. My tattoos flash, and I hear Celestia wince in pain.

“What? No one can block me from their mind.” says Celestia as she brings a hoof up to her head. She is glaring at me.

“I don’t understand what happened either. And I won’t tell you how I know about your sister.” I tell her.

“You will tell me.” She says as she lights her horn with magic.

“No I won’t. The information I have is too dangerous to tell to anyone.” I tell her as I ready my ki.

“You will tell me what you know.” says Celestia as she stand up.

“The damage to the timeline that has already been altered would be irreparable. There could a plethora of things that could happen, from the end of the world to the timelines of this world merging. Do you still want to know what I do, even though you would be hurting your kingdom in an unknown way?” I half shout half ask. This seems to take Celestia back a bit.

“Just tell me what you know about.”

“I can tell of things that might happen. But I won’t for the safety of this world.” I rest my ki and sit down on the tile floor of the throne room.

“I think I understand.”

“If you don’t just ask Time Turner what would happen if you tried to prevent future events that are supposed to happen.”

“Time Turner? What would he know of time and space?”

“Just trust me. Call him a time lord if you want to know, if you excuse me princess I have other thing to do.”

“I have one more thing to discuss with you Avatar.”

“What is it Princess?”

“It is about Cadence.” I could hear my heartbeat increase at this.

“What about her?”

“I know what you have asked of her. Could these actions change future events like you told me? Could your relationship with her endanger the world?” I calm at this.

“Yes it did change some future events, but nothing that I can’t handle. Just by coming to Equestria has already altered the original time line of this world. I can handle what might go wrong if things turn south from my decisions. So please trust me in my decisions, and take my warnings to heart.” I tell her.

“We will see Avatar. You are dismissed.” I bow once more, and head to the gardens. I enter the gardens and walk over to a nearby bench that is under the shade.

I sit down and start to sing.

Here is the song.

After I was finished I opened my eyes to see Celestia and Cadence standing there with tears in there eyes.

“That was… I can’t explain how I felt about that.” Says Cadence as she comes up and hugs me. I accept the hug, and look up to Celestia who is shedding silent tears. I just sigh and push Cadence off of me.

“I’ll be back in a couple hours to leave with Twilight. I’m going to the top of the mountain.” I tell them. Cadence just looks at me.

“Yes I want you to come with me.” She hugs me. I look up to see Celestia nod.

“Hold on.” I tell Cadence. Her grip tightens around me. I then start to fly up to the top of the mountain. I was flying faster then I regularly would, but I needed to be up there. It took me four minutes to get to the top. I let Cadence down, then land next to her.

“Why did you come up here?” asks Cadence. I sigh inwardly and sit down.

“I-I-I… I honestly don’t know. I just feel better when I’m up here. I think I miss my family that I still had back home. But I never visited them. I never even called them. I just secluded myself from the world after my parents died.”

“I’m sorry to hear that.”

“Don’t be. You wanted to know who I really am. So I’m going to tell you.”

“You don’t have to.”

“But I want to. I’ve held on to my emotions, and mourned for too long now. I’m in a new world, with a new life, and new precious ones. I just feel like I’m going to loose it all. It’s like I’m not able to protect you or Equestria enough.”

“Hey, you can protect us just fine.” I stand up and walk to the actual peak of the mountain. I turn around to face Cadence.

“Can you imagine what it feels like to sit by and watch as your parents are killed, and not be able to do anything about it?” This makes Cadence pause. I’m now flashing my ki, and my tattoos are starting to glow.

“Do you know what its like to live on your own, and grow up without any support?” Cadence looks up to me with tears in her eyes. My ki was charged to the maximum, my tattoos were glowing like the sun had just set. I then look up to the sky, and spot the sun of my previous world behind the blue of this sun’s light.

I could feel my anger explode. My vision blurred to pure white.

All I could hear was my energy being fired out of me like I was defending the world. When I could see again, I was laying on the ground. I sit up to see that the mountain top was charred black. I see Cadence looking at the sky in horror. I looked up to see a giant ball of purple flying away from the planet. I then fell back down to my back. Completely exhausted from my outburst. I then fall asleep.

I wake up in a soft plush bed. I could feel a form pressed up against me. I look over to the form to see that it was Cadence. I then remembered what happened on the top of the mountain.

I could feel that we were in something that was moving. I see a window. I slowly get out of the bed and look out of the window.

We were on a train, heading somewhere, but where. It was now night time. This means I slept for the rest of the day.

I hear a rustling sound coming from the bed. A light was turned on.

“Artermis, when did you wake up?” asks a very sleepy Cadence.

“Just a few moments ago. Where are we going?” I ask her.

“We’re going to the ruins of Ponyville. Don’t you remember what happened that night?” I started to panic.

“What happened?”

“Nightmare Moon came back and took over. She destroyed the elements of harmony. She then destroyed Ponyville, taking Canterlot soon afterwards. We’re being sent by Mistress Moon to make sure there aren’t any survivors.” I was now in full blown panic. I ran to the clock to see that it was three o’ clock pm. My eyes widen. I then look back to Cadence just to be stabbed in the chest.

I jump out of the bed I was in. My ki already flared up. I frantically ran to the window, and pulled the curtains aside.

It was sunny outside. I could still see the blue of the sky.

“Oh, it was just a bad dream.” I take deep breaths of air into my lungs to calm down from my false alarm.

I hear a door open and close. I immediately turn around to see a lavender unicorn standing there.

“Oh you’re awake.” Says the unicorn.

“Yes, can you tell me where I am?” I ask her.

“You’re on a train heading to Ponyville to oversee the Summer Sun Celebration with me.” She answers with a smile.

“So you’re Twilight Sparkle. I’m Avatar Artermis. It is nice to meet you Miss Sparkle.” I tell her. She blushes at my manners.

“Please Artermis, just call me Twilight.”

“Alright Twilight has Celestia told you about me?” I ask. She nods her head.

“Yes she did. I must say you are a fascinating specimen.” says Twilight. I chuckle at her studious ways.

“Well I’m sure you have questions to ask, but can we get something to eat first?”

“Sure, follow me. What would you like?”

“I think a simple salad should do the trick.” I tell her as I follow her into a different car on the train.

“What would you like on your salad?”

“Well I can’t eat flowers, they disagree with my species. I guess carrots, and radishes, with broccoli, and some dressing to go with it.”

“I already know you’re an omnivore.” says Twilight with a dead panned look.

“Alright, well now I seem scary don’t I?”

“No you just have a diet similar to a griffon’s; it’s completely okay with me.”

“Well you’re the first to not flip out over my natural needs, well you and Cadence that is.” I can see a confused look on Twilight’s face.

“How do you know Cadence?”

“She was present when I woke up after my crash landing in the royal gardens. We became friends that same day.”

“Oh okay.” We had arrived at the dinning car. I sat across from Twilight as we waited for our food.

“So the Princess told me about your abilities. I’m very curious about your control over water, earth, air, and fire.” says Twilight.

“Well I can only control all four because I’m the Avatar. And its called bending to be specific. I use my chi, or life force to animate or bend the elements. So far I can use all the base elements. I haven’t even tried to use the secondary elements.”

“What are the secondary elements?”

“There are elements that are evolved forms of the base elements. These consist of lightning, metal, energy, sand, blood, and even lava.” I tell her.

“So, with training, you could control lightning?”

“Guide and make lightning, yes, but if I try to control it, it will kill me.”

“What about metal?”

“I’m not good enough to sense the pieces of earth that are inside of metal. I have no clue as to even start on energy bending; lava is still a mystery to me.”

“What about sand, and blood?”

“Sand is just like earth, just smoother, and easier to move. Blood bending is very dangerous, and can only be done on the night of the full moon.” Our food arrives. I thank the waitress.

“So what happened after I blacked out?” I ask Twilight in between bites of salad. Twilight finished what she had in her mouth and said, “Well after you made that beam of energy Celestia went up to check on you. All she found was a scared Cadence and you unconscious on the ground in front of her. Celestia brought you to the train, and I’ve been watching over you until you woke up.” Twilight and I ate another bite of our food. After we both swallowed I continued.

“How long till we’re in Ponyville?” I ask Twilight.

“Maybe another hour or so.” I nod.

“Would you like to see a demonstration of my bending?” I ask her. Twilights eyes light up with curiosity and joy.

“You would show me your ability?” She asks getting excited. I chuckle and say, “Why not? I am here to watch over you. You might as well know what I can do.”

“Wow this is so cool. I get to see an unknown species show me his ability.” Says Twilight literally bouncing in her seat. I look around noticing an absence of a certain purple and green dragon.

“Hey Twilight, I have heard you have an assistant dragon. Where is he?” I ask her. She stops vibrating in her seat and looks at me.

“Oh he’s asleep in my car. He is usually asleep at this time of day.”

“Oh, okay.” I tell her before I take another bite of my salad. The rest of our meal was spent in silence, because I had nothing more to say to Twilight. After I had finished my salad I look to Twilight and asked, “Are you ready to see my bending.” She looks a little lost before she nods her head with a smile.

“Okay, what element do you want me to show you first?” I ask her.

“Water sounds like a good place to start.” She says after a little bit of thinking.

“Alright.” I tell her. I point to a glass of water. I then pull the water out of it in a small stream. I make the miniature river run around the cart before putting it back in the glass then freeze it. I melt the water, and turn it to water vapor, making it look like it disappeared. I then collect water from the air and refill the cup.

“Wow, that was pretty amazing.” says Twilight.

“Which element is next?” I ask her.

“Air sounds good.” I nod and make a small breeze go through the room. I then create a small ball of air.

“Hold your hoof out.” I tell her. She holds her hoof out over the table. I then make the air run up and down her leg, making little waves in her fur. This makes her giggle. I stop toying with her leg and make her mane float. She doesn’t notice what’s happening, so I move her mane into her vision.

“Hey.” She playfully yells at me. I just laugh and make her own mane tickle her. She is laughing at my tickle torture.

“Stop, stop, I’m going to wet my self if you don’t.” says Twilight. I move her mane back into her hairstyle. I’m then grinning like a bandit at her.

“That was pure evil.” She playfully scolds me.

“That’s the same thing Cadence said when I was done tickling her too.” I tell Twilight. Her eyes go wide at this.

“You tickled Cadence?”

“Yes I did, and it was almost as fun as tickling you. You squirm more, but she laughs louder.” I tell Twilight. She starts laughing at what I told her. I join in on the laughter. The laughter died down after a few moments.

“So, what is your relationship with Cadence?” asks Twilight.

“That’s for me to know, and for Cadence to tell.” I say to the lavender unicorn with a smirk.

“Tell me. PLEASE!” says Twilight as she begs. I just shake my head, and stand up. Now I’m five foot nine inches tall. Twilight’s horn came up the top of my stomach. I looked down on Twilight and gave the most annoyed glare I could muster.

“Drop it Twilight Sparkle. I will not tell you. That is Cadence’s information to give, not mine.” I tell her. She nods her head before she hangs it. I just sigh and light all the candles in the car with blue flames. Twilight could see the blue glow of the candles before she looked up to one of them. Right as soon as she was about to touch one I snuffed it out.

“Just because it is a different color does not mean it can’t hurt you.” I tell her. She nods so I relight the candle before her.

“Can you do other colors?” She asks. I nods and make the whole spectrum of color. One shade or hue for every candle. I then slowly let my hold on the flames die away. Turning them all back to there original color. I sigh as I let the flames die, and gutter. I then turn to the rear of the train and start walking away. I leave Twilight in the car alone. I continue past the room I slept in, and head for the very end of the train.

I exit to the very end of the train. I turn to see a ladder that leads to the top of the train. I climb it and walk along the top of the cars. We were on flat open country heading for Ponyville, so I didn’t have to worry about tunnels, or waterfalls.

I sit down atop the car, and look back to Canterlot. I could still see the scorch mark of my power outburst. I sigh as I let some tears fall from my eyes as I remember how scared Cadence looked.

How can she love me after that? I think to myself. I just tried to blow up my home planet out of an anger that came from the middle of BFE. And for all I know it might have worked. I was so lost in my own thoughts I had hardly noticed we had stopped in Ponyville. I was almost not able to hear Twilight.

“Artermis! Come on we’re here!” shouts Twilight. I look down to Twilight and look past her on the town that was Ponyville. I stand and jump off of the top of the train.

“It took me a couple of minutes to get you down from there. Is something wrong?” asks Twilight.

“I just don’t know Twi. What if I screwed something up?” I thought aloud.

“With what? Are you talking about Cadence?”

“What?! Did I say that aloud?” I ask to her. She nods her head.

“Alright, I’ll tell you when the celebration is over.” I tell her. She nods and Spike, who is on her back, says, “Can we get going?” Twilight giggles and starts walking, I just stay with her. Our first stop was of coarse Sweet Apple Acres.

“Yeeee haw!” shouts an orange and blonde maned earth pony, as she runs at a tree at full gallop. At the last second she does a one eighty, and bucks the tree. Apples fall into the baskets that were around said tree.

“Ugh. Let’s get this over with.” says Twilight as she heads towards the mare.

“You’re acting like making friends is poison. It can’t be that bad.” I tell her. She just sighs. We near the orange earth pony. She sees me, and starts to panic.

“Calm down young one. I’m just here for the day.” I call out to the earth pony. She walks over to us.

“Good afternoon. My name is Twilight Sparkle, I’m here to oversee the preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration, and you’re in charge of the food?”

“Yeah we are, but what is that thing?” Asks the orange mare.

“I’m just here for security measures.” I tell her.

“Ya didn’t answer mah question.”

“I’m a human. I am here to protect Ponyville if need be.” I tell her, “Really I’m just here with Twilight to make sure everything is okay.”

“Oh okay, well ah’m Apple Jack proud owner of Sweet Apple Acres.” She replies, “Care to try some of the food?”

“Well as long as it doesn’t take too long.” Replies Twilight. I just smirk as I already know what was going to happen. I just walk over to the pavilion and sit down, waiting for Apple Jack to finish naming her family.

It was time to eat. I was definitely hungry, probably because of my overuse of my ki. Sayains do have very large appetites.

“Woo, that was really good. I could still eat more, but I’ll wait till later.” I tell them. Twilight looks at me like I’m insane.

“Are you pullin’ mah leg or somethin’? Cause ya just ate half of what we put on the table.” says Apple Jack looking at me in disbelief.

“It’s because I have an energy called ki. When I use too much I have to make more, which in turn makes me really hungry.” I tell her.

“But how did ya manage to eat that much?”

“Did you see that massive beam of purple light that came from the top of Canterlot Mountain earlier today?” I ask.

“Yeah, ah was wondering what that was.”

“Well that’s what happens when I get enraged. I basically explode at whatever made me angry.”

“Remind me not to make you angry.” I just laugh at this.

“It takes a lot to make me that angry Apple Jack. So don’t worry yourself too much.” I tell her with a small smile.

“Hey mister Artermis?” asks a little yellow coated, red maned earth pony.

“Yes?” I ask her.

“Can you teach me to defend mahself?”

“When were you born?”

“What has that got ta do with anythang?”

“I can’t teach you to use ki, but I can teach you to bend an element.” I tell her.

“Bend an element? What’s that mean?”

“Watch.” I tell her as I stand up. I walk over to the middle of the road leading back to Ponyville. I gather my chi, and ready it for use.

“Fire.” I say to the filly. I look up at thrust my left hand up towards the sky. A giant jet of flame spews from my hand. I stop making fire and look down to the filly that is now looking at me in amazement.

“Water.” I say as I gather a massive pool of water from the moisture in the air. I then make a large floating river that moves around the barn. I then make the water explode, causing the trees to be watered.

“Air.” I tell her. I swing my air around me in a figure eight pattern before thrusting it forward. A large gust of wind pushes through the orchard. I then calm the wind. I look down to the filly and say, “Earth.”

I slam my fist into the ground causing the ground to shake. I then tear a boulder from the ground. I replace the boulder, and then replace the grass that was disturbed.

I am breathing heavily after that. I sit down on my bum and look the filly in the eyes. She was looking at me in complete shock. I close her mouth and ruffle her mane a bit. This snaps her out of her shocked state.

“How did you do that?” She asks with the biggest smile on her face. I chuckle and say, “I am the Avatar. I can control the elements by using my chi or life force as some call it.” I tell her.

“So I can learn to do all of that?” She asks.

“Not all four, but it is possible for you to learn one of them. This is why I need to know what time of year you were born in.” I tell her.

“Oh, well I was born in late summer.” She tells me. I smirk at this.

“You could learn to bend earth.” I tell her.

“Wait your tellin me I can move rocks and stuff like you did?” She asks.

“Well, with earth come the sub elements as well, but yeah.” I say with a nod.

“What are the sub elements?”

“Sand and metal bending, both of which I haven’t tried to do yet.”

“Artermis! What in the hay was that all about?!” Shouts an angry Apple Jack.

“This young filly here wanted to learn how to defend herself. I’m going to try to teach her how.” I tell Apple Jack as she gets closer to me.

“Well why did ya have to shake the ground? Ya darn near scared Granny Smith to death?” I just sigh and say, “She needed a demonstration to see what she could learn. Besides that, she might be able to do what I did with the ground.” I tell Apple Jack.

“How in tarnation do you thing my sis could do that? She aint that strong yet.”

“You see I didn’t do that with brute force, if I did I would have broken all the bones in my arm. I did it using a long forgotten technique. I used the art of Earth Bending.” I stand up once more and start on my way back to the farm.

“Hey Twilight, I’m going to stay here and teach this young filly to earth bend. Call for me if you need me, even if you think I can’t hear you!” I call over to Twilight. I get an Okay as a response.

“Now who gave you permission to stay?” asks Apple Jack.

“This training I’m putting your sister through could very well save her life one day, and you’re complaining?” I ask Apple Jack.

“How could learning how to move rocks save her life?”

“Hit me and I’ll show you. If I injure you I’ll heal you. Deal?” I tell her.

“Whatever, if ah hurt you, it’s your fault for asking me to.” She tells me as she backs up. I just nod in agreement. Apple Jack charges me, and I just wipe my hand across my field of vision, making the dirt beneath her shift quickly to the left. She falls, and yelps as she hit the ground.

Apple Jack stands back up with a growl. She runs at me again, and this time I stomp my foot, making a large rock pop up in front of her hoofs. She face plants into the ground. I could hear her sister giggle at this. I then slide Apple Jack up to me and ask, “Now do you see how this could save her life?” I pick Apple Jack up off of the ground and set her on her hooves. I see that her nose it bleeding and snapped to one side.

“Hold still and let me fix that.” I tell her. She nods. I get a light blue ki ball in my hand and make it surround her nose. I hear small pops, and snaps as her muzzle moves back into place. I then start working on the bleeding. I close the wounds, and wipe the blood away. I then work on fixing the scars it would have left.

When I finished Apple Jack looked as though nothing happened.

“There, and not a single scar.” I tell her.

“How come I didn’t feel any pain as my bones moved back into place?”

“Because when I started to heal you I blocked all the nerves in your muzzle so that you couldn’t feel anything. Making it easier on my part.”

“Alright, you can train Apple Bloom.” says Apple Jack, “But no training her too hard, got it?” I nod my head quickly, partly out of respect for her decision, and partly because an angry female from any species is freaking scary.

“Yaaay!” Shouts Apple Bloom. I chuckle and look down to the filly.

“Come, we need to find an open field for you to practice in.” I tell her.

“Oh, oh, I know where we can go.” She tells me as she starts walking. I just follow the young filly. We walked through the orchards of apple trees before we came to a large open field.

“This will do perfectly. Although we are going to make it look like someone took a digger to the field.” I say aloud.

“So what do I get to learn first?” asks Apple Bloom.

“Well first we have to see if you are an earth bender, otherwise we would be wasting our time.” I tell her, “So we’re going to see if you can move a rock that is the same size as you.”

“Alright, but I don’t see any rocks around here that are that big.” I just shake my head. I look at the ground and stomp my right foot.

“Okay I guess the first lesson is as long as you are on the ground you have something to bend.” She nods so I get the rock that is about her size to move in front of her. I then sit down on the ground.

“Here is how you bend the earth.” I start, “You and all living things have an energy called chi that is inside of you. Chi is the life force of all things. Some with the talent can use their chi to bend certain elements to their will.” I scoot Apple Bloom closer and say, “I’m going to show how chi should feel. I need you to hold your hoof out towards me.” She does so.

“You’re going to feel a weird sensation that you wouldn’t feel in regular circumstances. For earth benders it should feet like a solid surface is pushing against them. I’m going to make a chi ball and put it around your hoof, and you’re going to tell me what you feel.” She nods so I hold out my hand and will my chi to form a ball around her hoof. Her eyes widen at the strange energy she has probably never felt before.

“Wow so that’s how that happened then.” This catches my attention so I stop the chi ball.

“Have you felt this before?” I ask her.

“Yeah, it was like that one time I was trying to buck apples from the trees for the first time. I couldn’t do it because I was so young. I got really frustrated at the tree. I felt the same thing happen just now when I stomped on the ground then. I shook the tree like that and an apple fell down.” I smile at her story.

“Well this just made my job a bit easier.” I say as I stand up.

“How so?” ask Apple Bloom.

“Well since you have already bended earth it won’t be too hard to do it again.”

“So you’re telling me I can already bend?” I nod.

“Move the rock if you don’t believe me.” She walks back over to the rock. I could see that she was having trouble utilizing her chi.

She has subconsciously put up a barrier to keep her chi under and out of control. I thought to myself.

“Stop Apple Bloom you’re not going to be able to do it right now.”

“What, why?” She asks.

“Because you have a mental barrier keeping your chi out of your control. Was there a crisis for you when you where young?”

“Yeah, but I don’t want to talk about it.” She says as tears start to fill her eyes.

“I can understand why you wouldn’t want to, but it’s either we try to remove the block, and continue your training, or you can’t learn how to bend. It’s your choice.” I tell her. She seems to think about this before she speaks.

“It was the day after I got my apple out of the tree. My parents died from a disease, leaving me my brother and my sister alone in the world.” My heart strings are being pulled at.

“I am in the same position you are Bloom. My parents were killed buy someone who wanted our money. I was tied to a chair, and was forced to watch as they killed them. It still haunts me. It will make me angry or sad, or just happy to be so fortunate. Recently it made me angered beyond anything before. I made the mountain top black because of my anger.” I start to shed tears. Apple Bloom is doing the same.

I didn’t expect her to come up to me and give me a hug. I just hug her back. We wept together silently for a few minutes.

“I’m sorry I asked you about this Bloom, It wasn’t my right to do so.”

“It’s okay Artermis. I feel better now then I did before.”

“So you overcame your barrier. You can now bend earth.” I say as I wipe the last of my tears away. Apple Bloom just walks over to her rock and pushes it with her bending. It slides across the ground for a few feet before stopping. It left a trail of dug up grass. I just smile and look at Apple Bloom with pride.

“Yay, I did it, I did it.” Say Apple Bloom as she jumps around with glee.

“Great job Bloom. Want to learn another move?” I ask her. She stops and looks at me. She has a huge smile on her face that only got bigger when I asked.

“I’ll take that as a yes.” I say as I earn a giggle from her.

“Okay, I have a choice for you to make. You can learn how to shake the ground, and make a wall, or you can learn how to use the slide move I used on your sister.”

“I want to learn the wall please.” I smile and nod.

“Okay, all you have to do is stomp on the ground with the will of bringing up a wall.” I tell her. I stomp on the ground and make a wall of earth pop out of the ground between us. I then push it back into the ground.

“Just make sure the wall isn’t right in front of you, for you might catch you head on the top of your wall.” I tell her. She nods.

“Okay, here I go.” She says as she raises her front hooves. I jump back after I sense how much chi she had in her hooves. I watch as she creates a twenty foot wall that was thirty feel long. I summon my chi and push it back into the ground. I then jump forwards with a little air bending and land a few feet from her.

“Wow, did I really just do that?” She asks. I chuckle and say, “Yeah you just did. But for now I think that is enough for one day. I’m supposed to be with Twilight helping her with the celebration.” My air bending picks up Twilight’s voice calling for me.

“Do you want a ride home?” I ask Apple Bloom.

“Sure. Thanks fer teachen me about my powers.” She says. I just smile and pick her up with my good arm.

“Hold on to me.” I tell her. She wraps her hooves around my left arm. I just nod before I start to dash back to her home. She was laughing the whole way there. This in turn causes me to laugh along with her.

I drop Apple Bloom off at her home before dashing off to Twilight. I center in on her voice, and land right next to her after thirty seconds of fast travel.

“You called?” I ask. She jumps away from me. She calms down when she sees that it’s me.

“Don’t do that Artermis. You nearly gave me a heart attack.”

I just start laughing to her. I could tell that she met Rainbow Dash from the looks of her mane. I compose myself.

“What do you need Twilight?” I ask her.

“I need you to find a Pegasus named Fluttershy while I go see Rarity.” She tells me. I nod and turn to dash off one more.

“Wait, I need you to not freak her out though. Rainbow Dash said she is very shy.” I nod once more before I will myself into a young Pegasus colt.

“This better?” I ask her with my big puppy dog eyes.

“Oh my goodness you’re so cute!” She says as she scoops me up into a hug. I just separate us with a little air bending.

“Yup this will work.” I say as I start to walk off. Before I could get very far I am grabbed in a purple aura and brought back to Twilight.

“I’m not letting you leave when you’re this cute.” I just smirk and say, “Oh so you’re telling me that you won’t let me leave? I could play this out in so many ways. Let’s do my favorite where I yell help and you get in trouble.” I take a deep breath of air, and get dropped. I laugh as I start to walk away. I tune in on some music, so I start heading that way. I come up to a tree that has song birds on it. I then see a butter yellow Pegasus with a pink mane conducting them.

How should I grab her attention, I could just walk up to her and say I’m looking for someone. No that would distract her from her birds for the whole day. An idea hits me right in the forehead. Duh she wants to see a baby dragon. I will myself into a baby dragon with purple spikes and silver scales. I then walk up to the timid Pegasus.

I tap her hoof and she falls to the ground with a barely audible ‘eep’.

“Oh I’m so sorry. I just heard birds singing and came to see them.” I say in a very young voice. I see her look at me from behind her mane. She immediately reverses her emotions and scoops me up into her arms.

“A talking baby dragon!” She says in a regular voice.

“Um, I don’t know you.” I say to her. She looks down at me and sets me down onto the ground. I flap my small wings a couple times to make sure she didn’t break a rib.

“I’m sorry I was just so excited to see a baby dragon that I forgot that you don’t know me.”

“It’s okay. I get that a lot from other ponies too.” I say as I stand up next to her.

“So what’s your name?” She asks. I come up with a quick name and say,

“I’m Silver Fire. I’m here with a unicorn from Canterlot to help her oversee the preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration. And I’m also here for security measures.”

“Hi Silver Fire, my name is Fluttershy.”

“That’s a cute name.” I tell her. She visibly blushes a little.

“Thank you.” She says in an almost whisper. I could here it as clear as crystals because of my air bending.

“So I see you’re in charge of the music. It sounded beautiful when I was walking around to find you.”

“Oh, yes my bird choir can sing very well, and they all enjoy making every pony happy.” She tells me with a small smile, “So why are you named Silver Fire, if it’s okay for me to know.” I just smile at her.

“It’s because my fire that I breathe is silver in color, and cold like a chili wind.” I tell her. I smile as I blow a small flame that was silver.

“Wow, that’s so cool I don’t even know how to describe it.” I just chuckle at this.

“I have to get going Fluttershy. I am here on duty. Maybe I’ll come back and tell you who I really am.” I say as I turn to leave.

“Wait, you’re not named Silver Fire?” She asks looking hurt.

“I’m not even a dragon Fluttershy. I’m not anything that came from this world, but I’m only here to live the rest of my life in peace and tranquility.” I tell her.

“Then will you show me what you really look like?” She asks. I just sigh.

“As long as you don’t freak out.” I tell her. She nods her head so I will myself back into my human form.

“This is the real me.” I tell her as I finish changing.

“What are you?” She asks.

“I’m a half breed of two different species that look exactly the same. I’m part human, part Sayain.” I tell her.

“Wow you look scary but nice in a strange way. And if you’re not a dragon how did you breathe fire? If that’s okay with you.” I just smile a warm smile and say, “I can control the elements of fire, water, earth, and air because I am also the avatar of my home world.” I tell her, “I’m really named Artermis.”

“Oh okay.” says Fluttershy as she looks at the ground.

“Hey. Would like a baby dragon of your own?” I ask.

“Oh yes. I would keep her at home and raise her to help me with the animals. Could you really get me one?” She asks completely happy now. I smile and nod my head.

“I have to do my royal duties right now, but when I get some time off I’ll get you an egg.” I tell her. She squees at me and I just smile even more.

“I have to go for now, but you’ll see me again soon, I have a feeling you will.” I say as I start to walk away.

“Thank you.” says Fluttershy. I just wave back to her. I could here Twilights voice again so I start heading in that direction.

I eventually made it to the library where Twilight would be staying. I knock on the door, and a few seconds later Spike answers it.

“Oh hey Artermis.” says Spike as he lets me in. I could see Twilight with her nose in a book. I walk up to her and say, “Hey Twilight.” She looks up to me.

“Hello Artermis, how was the music coming along?”

“It’s perfect Fluttershy knows what she’s doing.” I say as I sit down next to Twilight. I wince in pain as I bump my right arm against my knee.

“Are you okay?” asks Spike.

“Yeah, it’s just my arm I dislocated a while ago, that’s why it’s in a sling.” I tell him as I rub my shoulder.

“I could heal that for you.” says Twilight, now interested in the conversation.

“Are you sure, because I’m not a pony.” I remind her.

“Yes, I’m ninety eight percent positive it will fix your arm.” She tells me.

“Alright go ahead.” I say as I stand once more.

“Wait just like that, no argument on how I could mess up your arm?” She asks a little shocked that I just up and agreed with her.

“Yeah you said only a two percent chance of failure, so I see no harm in it.” I tell her.

“Okay, well here it goes.” She lights her horn with a lavender aura, and my arm does the same. I feel a tingly sensation in my bones. When she stopped I took off the sling and tested my arm.

“Wow thanks Twilight; you saved me from another week of left handed torture.” I tell her. She giggles at my word choice.

“Any time Artermis, but don’t go and get your self hurt.” I just chuckle and she giggles at this.

“Oh, it seems ponies can learn to bend the elements.” I tell her. She is now looking at me with paper and quill held in her magical grasp.

“You want an explanation along with a reason, and a way to tell if you’re a bender right?” I ask her she nods her head. I sigh.

“Okay, so bending…” We continued like this for a LONG time. It was probably three in the morning when she stopped asking me questions. She had seventeen papers that were three feet long on notes about every thing I knew on bending the elements. I yawn and stand up jogging in place for a few seconds.

“We should head to the celebration Twi.” I suggested to her. She nods and we both head out the door. Spike had fallen asleep at two thirty so we left him at the library.

Twilight and I were heading to the town hall where Celestia would be raising the sun soon. I was readying myself for Nightmare Moon’s return.

“Artermis what’s wrong?” asks Twilight. I have to lie to her.

“I don’t know, but it feels like something bad is going to happen.” I tell her with a grave tone in my voice.

“I hope that pony’s tale isn’t real either.” She tells me. I just nod my head.

We made it to town hall in under a minute. I stayed at the back of the room since I was the tallest one there. I watched as the mayor says her speech and then wait for Nightmare Moon.

She appeared as a huge plume of purple smoke. This is when I started on my way up to the front.

“Ah my beloved subjects.” says Nightmare. I just keep on my way to the front of the crowd.

“Did none of you see the signs?” asks Nightmare.

“I did.” says Twilight. This was when I jumped up onto the platform and said, “Good night.” I then bring my right hand down a top her head. Before my hand connected with her skull she blows me back. I stay afloat in the air. I then yell out to the ponies, “Every one get out. This is going to get ugly.” I then rush forward and throw punches at the dark alicorn. She just pulses her magic, pushing me back.

“How are you not falling from my magic?” asks Nightmare.

“You messed with the wrong town Nightmare. I was here to make sure you didn’t succeed in bringing eternal night.” I tell her, “You’re going to have to kill me to make me fall.” I then throw a ki ball at her. She dodges and then turns to smoke and runs off.

“You coward.” I say to no one. I land and rush out the door heading to the library at full speed. I made it there in ten seconds.

Twilight already had the group ready to go.

“Artermis are you okay?” asks Fluttershy.

“I’m fine, but Nightmare Moon escaped. Twilight you are the one I’m to be protecting, should I go after her, or stay with you?” I ask the lavender unicorn.

“Stay with us. We will need protection in the Everfree forest.” I nod to her.

“Alright lets go.” says Twilight. We all exited the library and walked to the forest front. It took us all a few minutes to get there.

“Okay let’s go.” says Pinkie Pie. We all caught up with each other o the way here.

“Hold on girls. I know you want to help, but I can’t ask you to do this.”

“Twilight, they’re not going to let you do this alone.” I tell her.

“Artermis is right dear. We can’t let you go into this terribly place alone.” says Rarity. I hear agreements from all the others. We all entered the forest and started our journey to the ancient castle of the pony sisters.
