Getting NoticedBy: LunarGuard12

"Oh princess please answer my letter." Twilight said to herself as she walked around waiting for a response to the letter Twilight quickly wrote to Celestia. She continued to pace for several minutes before Spike her young purple dragon assistant walked in.

"Twilight don't you think you're over reacting?" he asked.

"No Spike I don't think I'm over reacting he was able to pull off a extremely high level barrier spell the even Shiny can't do."

"But aren't barrier spells the easiest spell?"

"Yes but its what he did. He nullified the magic with the shield."

"That's bad right?"

"I've only seen Celestia and Luna do it."

"Oh." Spike said with a worried look on his face now.

"Exactly. Now we just have to wait for them to reply." Right after Twilight said that Spike burped up a swirling green smoke at formed into a letter with a sun and moon seal on it. "Finally." Twilight said as she opened it and read it out loud.

"Dear Twilight, we have received the letter you sent us and as soon as we are done with a few minor things we will come to see if we can find this dragon who you said could conjure a magic negation field. This could be very bad and we will be bringing the elements with us just in case so you should get your friends together." Twilight looked up from the letter "I need to get the others." and she left going to find her friends.

"So what 'r' we doin' again sugercube? An orange earth pony asked Twilight.

"We're meeting the princesses to see if this dragon I told you about already Applejack, will be a problem or not." Twilight said

"So what's up with this dragon anyway?" A light blue pegasus asked as she hovered just above Twilight.

"He was near a spike of chaos magic a few days ago and if he was the source he could be a problem Rainbow."

"Oh."

"Rainbow darling you should really pay attention more Twilight did tell us this earlier." A white unicorn  with a deep purple corkscrew mane said.

"Thank you Rarity."

"But what if he is actually was from another world but forgot his memories and doesn't even know the extent of his powers yet and he could possibly be a really good friend, I mean did we ever really talk to him without being mean to him?" a pink earth pony with a mane that looked like cotton candy asked in one breath. Twilight looked to the pink pony and said "Pinkie please try to take this seriously it could be a huge problem."

"Ok." Pinkie said bouncing along with the group.

Fluttershy was lost in thought still thinking about Canus. She didn't believe he would be a problem he was only defending himself against Twilight yesterday. She hoped he was ok he was only up for a few minutes before he entered the everfree. A flash of bright light brought her out of her thoughts and Celestia and Luna stood before her and her friends. Celestia with her ivory coat and her mane of the early morning colors moving on a unseen breeze and Luna with her dark blue coat and her mane that had spots of light in it like a clear sky at night also blowing on a unseen breeze like her sister's.

"Twilight my faithful student I'm glad you brought this to my attention now where is this dragon you spoke of." Twilight's ears drooped as she said "I don't know where he is he went into the Everfree and I'm not sure if we can find him in there."

"Oh come now Twilight you forget some important things sometimes." A voice said from no where. Twilight and her friends looked around before Twilight said "Discord come out so we can see you. You know we don't like talking to thin air."

A zipper appeared in mid air and opened to let Discord, the being of chaos, pull himself out. Discord stretched his mismatched body out raising his eagle talons and lion paw above his head while extending his dragon leg and deer leg  down "Come on Twilight you forget you know a being of chaos now. I can easily track this source of chaos down if that is truly what it is."

Twilight only gave a disgruntled look at Discord still getting used to him out and about after Celestia let him out of his stone prison. "Thank you for your assistance Discord." Celestia said to Discord giving him a friendly smile.

"No problem Tia." Discord looked around before he saw Fluttershy and said "Fluttershy my dear how have you been?" Fluttershy gave him a small smile saying "I've been good Discord how about you?"

"Little bit of mischief here and there but nothing to big. A chocolate rain over Manehatten one day. A abandoned house turned upside down unexpectedly. Nothing really harmful."

"Good." Fluttershy said.

Celestia cleared her throat to get Discords attention "Yes now that that is done could you please led us to this dragon Discord?" she asked

"Sure thing onwards to the Everfree!" he shouted with a cowboy hat and whip appearing on his person as he started leading them to the forest. He led them for almost a half hour through the forest before the group came to a clearing and found a single story stone house very nice arched windows there with Marigold out front resting under a decent sized hut for him.

"Does anyone else see the really nice house and Fluttershy's pet manticore in a hut out front?" Rainbow asked. Everyone at the same time said "Yep." The front door opened and Canus came out. Saw all the ponies. Turned around and shut the door and audible clicks could be heard as he locked the door. "How did he get a house like that in such a short amount of time?" Twilight asked baffled.

"Well one thing I can say for sure is that there is chaos magic at work." Discord said looking at the house. "Have to admit though that house looks pretty cool." Discord moved towards the house then simply walked up to the door and opened it for the others. They all entered unconcerned with how Discord was able to open the door and found Canus Sitting in a nice wooden chair. Canus looked to where the door opened and got a scared look on his face when he looked at Celestia and Luna and simply said "Oh shit." and tried to jump out a window to be caught in a purple aura. He noticed he wasn't moving and tried to swim through the air which made Pinkie and Rainbow laugh. While Canus was struggling Discord looked to Celestia and Luna and asked "Can I try something?"

"Is it dangerous?" Celestia asked

"Not to either of you two and not to any of your ponies if my hunch is correct. But it could blow up in my face."

"Go ahead then." Luna said with a smirk "We would love to see something blow up in your face for a change." Discord only stuck his tongue out at Luna then moved towards Canus who had given up and crossed his arms still floating. "Can I help you?" Discord looked him over then poked him a few times. "Again can I help you?" Discord ignored him then looked at the pack nearby opened it and pulled out the strange coin. "So that where it's coming from. Lets see." He flipped the coin a few times and it started glowing before he handed it to Canus saying "Hold this." Canus rolled his eyes and took the coin. Discord then snapped his taloned hand and Canus got a distant look in his eyes for a moment before they refocused.

"Um I know I'm not in any position to ask this but Celestia, Luna can I ask you have Twilight put me down and her friends to go outside for a moment?" Celestia was confused about the sudden change in behavior but knew Discord well enough that anything could have happened and it could have been much worse. "Twilight please go outside."

"But princess? what if he tries to run?"

"I'm not going to run I'm going to talk." Canus said. Twilight looked to Celestia and Celestia nodded. Twilight slowly put Canus down and said "Come on girls lets wait outside." And with that Twilight led the others out.

**********

'Glad they left now to deal with Discord.' I looked to Discord who had a wicked smile on his face. I remembered everything but my original name. The deal I made with Dissonance. Even the powers I now have. I gave Discord and evil glare "You."

"Me?" He said innocently.

"What. The. Fuck. Did. You. DO!" I shouted the last word.

"I modified your deal."

"Why the HELL did you do that!"

"Because it would stir up some interesting chaos."

"Fuck you Discord. Fuck you"

"Um are we missing something?" Luna asked. And with that I remembered that both of the princesses were in my company and either one of them could easily kill me if needed.

"I'm sorry but Discord here just gave me access to the immense amount of power I had given myself when I entered your world."

"What do you mean by 'entered' our world?" Celestia asked. I knew there was no more reason to hide the truth since Discord had given me back my memories. I told them everything, well almost everything I left out the fact I could see into there world trough a show I felt that would cause some problems. The explanation took just over five minutes since I had not been in Equestria too long and there wasn't too much that has happened yet.

"So let me see if I heard you right?" Luna asked "You basically made a draconequus and he offered you a deal to go to one place and you chose Equestria?"

"Yeah." I said rubbing the back of my head. Luna looked to Celestia who asked me "Is there anyway you can contact Dissonance?"

I heave a heavy sigh "He probably has been listening since Discord showed up. Haven't you?" I said holding the coin that had the likeness of Dissonance.

"Yes. Yes I have." Dissonance said as he came from behind Discord startling the two princesses with his appearance. "And Discord more than gave you back your memories he also gave your powers a modification." Dissonance said flipping a second coin.

"Celestia, Luna this is Dissonance scary looking but mostly harmless."

"Mostly?" Celestia asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yeah. He has insane amounts of power but he can't access it at all times and most of the time he can access it he uses it for pranks."

"Why's that?" Luna asked.

"Because when I thought him up if he had full access he would be mostly unstoppable and unstable too."

"Oh." Luna said and Celestia was doing her poker face thing which unnerved me.

"Now Dissonance what did Discord do?" I asked.

"like I said he modified your magic."

"What did he do?"

"He added himself to the deal for starters" I glared at Discord again "You will access his magic for cantrips, low level, and utility spells but some may not work the way you want them to."

"Wonderful." I said sarcastically "What else changed. I take it I still have access to your powers then?"

"Yes but." Dissonance said his face showing he wasn't going to like what he said next.

"But what?" I asked not liking the way dissonance was looking at me.

"It will require a blood price." I stood there silent for exactly five seconds before I asked "Blood as in from my body?" Dissonance nodded. I stood there thinking over the implications of that. "Does the blood have to be self drawn?"

"No just outside the body and fresh."

"Good that means I won't have to stab myself to defend myself."

"Anything else?" I asked and Dissonance shook his head "Well the blood price is a little unfortunate but not unworkable." I look to the coin I was still holding "Mind explaining why I have your coin?" I said holding it up.

"At first it was just for the heck of it but now there is a five percent chance of getting heads and summoning me for help but you only get two attempts per day and they do not stack."

"So the first two flips?"

"No the first two attempts you have to word it like that or if you just flip it for fun you could waste them."

"Thanks." I said putting it away. "Now I know you have some questions Celestia so please ask them." Celestia looked to Dissonance who opened a hole in the floor and fell through and then looked to me and asked.

"So what now?"

I thought for a minute before I said "I have NO idea. I could continue to live here so I don't cause trouble because now I can freely access my magic."

"Or you could live in Ponyville Canus." she said finally breaking her poker face. I stared straight at her my brain broken and unable to comprehend what she just said. "Twilight you and your friends can come back in." Twilight entered saw my face that was stuck somewhere between happiness and stupefied shock and giggled to herself feeling as she won since Celestia was able to do that to me. Rarity and Applejack came in next they also giggled at my stupid face. When Pinkie and Rainbow came in they didn't giggle they completely broke out laughing at me and Fluttershy entered quietly like she usually does. After they entered I finally snapped out of my shock.

"My little ponies this dragon's name is Canus and he will be moving into Ponyville."
