Humanity at it's Craziest
Chapter 5 - The beginning
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"R, watch your language. I can smell the jealousy from here." Neon said, getting up from his chair.
"You have got to tell me how you did that!"
"Maybe once you finish the entrance test." Neon said as he moved to the door leading into Rainbow's house.
"Wait, there's an entrance test?"
"Well why wouldn't their be? I don't want someone that can't pass a simple test running around the universe, now do I?"
"Wait. UNIVERSE?" Rainbow said, clearly shocked. "You mean that you can move around the UNIVERSE?"
"Well once you learn how to, yeah." Neon said, with no hint of emotion.
"How are you so emotionless about this?" Rainbow asked. "You can literally go anywhere in the universe!"
"I never said it was easy, did I?"
"How hard is it?" Rainbow asked, slightly surprised seeing that Neon do it so easily.
"I'll tell you later." Neon said, sitting down on the lounge. "Now we should probably go over the rules."
"Fine. But you better tell me later!" Rainbow said, getting comfortable in her cloud chair.
"Ok, rule 1: Don't do anything that I teach you unless I give specific instructions or your life is in danger. That means that you can't go showing off my tricks and that it will only be used responsibly. 2: Do not, and I repeat, do NOT tell anyone that I'm alive yet. I have a plan in place for that. And finally, rule 3: You must be loyal to me above all."
"Wait, you can't just expect me to leave my friends!" Rainbow argued.
"Hold on." Neon said, concentrating on something. "Never mind. Anyway, the first thing you need to do is act natural about this, that means that you will still have to go around with your friends and help the and what not. But you are not to break any of my rules and listen to me over all. That means that if your friends ask you to do something that goes against my orders you can not do it. If you really need help getting out of something, just scratch the red part of your mane and I will be there."
"What is with your freaky powers?" Rainbow asked. "They're just getting weirder and weirder."
"Well its hard to come up with something original. So I just go with the old strange stuff." Neon said with slight annoyance. "Anyway, I need to be going now. I have somepony to meet. I will speak to you later. Remember my rules, and do NOT betray me. I already trust you, but I just like making sure. Bye bye."
After he had finished saying that he vanished.
Rainbow, while annoyed that she had to wait, got up of her chair and made her way up to her bedroom. Once she was inside she noticed that their was a box sitting on her bed with a note attached. She trotted over and took the note in hoof and started to read.
Sup.
Here is a little present from your good buddy Neon. Use it wisely and REMEMBER THE RULES! Anyway, inside the box is a bracelet. The bracelet will be your first training tool and I will tell you what it does and how to use it when I next see you. I don't suggest playing around with it until I teach you, but knowing you, you will anyway. It has many uses. The one thing I will let you use is the strength responder, just think what part of your body you want stronger and it will happen, but you have to maintain the thought. Be safe.
Signed, That guy that did that one thing that one time.

Princess Luna was sitting in her room reading a book about... she didn't even know what she was reading, she was just passing the time. She was actually very bored. Ever since her return all she had been doing was catching up on the modern times and raising the moon. Sure, there was night court, but it didn't really count since she only got one or two pensioners.
Bored of what she was doing, she stood up and stretched her legs and wings. She then trotted over to the door leading out to her balcony and looked over Equestria.
"Bored?" A voice called from behind her.
She turned around to view the intruder. Standing in the shadows was a silhouette of a pony looking towards her.
"Who are you and how did you get here?" Luna demanded.
The pony stepped out of the shadows.
"Neon!" Luna said, startled. "Sorry, I was not expecting you."
"It is alright Luna." Neon said assuringly. "But onto more pressing matters. It is time."
"Are you saying..." Luna started only to be cut of by Neon.
"Yes I have introduced myself and found my student. But your sister interrupted me and tried to kill me."
"I am very sorry about my sister." Luna said. "Did it interrupt and of your plans?"
"Well now all the elements, except for Rainbow Dash, think I am dead. But otherwise they are going well and I have started the loop. I will need your help again though. I need you to give all the elements a dream with me in it. Make sure that I am not frightening but make it so that it looks like a vision. I want them to start talking about it so that they might eventually have a meeting about it. I will reveal myself to be alive then."
"Yes Neon, anything for you." Luna said while bowing. "Do you need me to take part in any of the revealing?"
"No, but I will require you to help train my student, Rainbow Dash." Neon said. He walked over to the balcony and looked down at ponyville.
"Of course." Luna said while rising from her bow. She then got a great idea and a cheeky grin. "Neon?"
"Yes Luna?"
"Can we have some fun? Just like old times?" Luna said while giving Neon the puppy dog eyes.
Neon turned around and saw Luna using the cutest weapon of all time. "Alright." Neon said defeated. "What would you like to do?"
"Can we play Halo?" Luna said with a smile that could rival Pinkie Pie. "It has been lifetimes since we have played it and I always enjoyed that game."
"Only for you Luna." Neon said with a smile while walking into her room and readying to play with a very happy Luna in tow.
It was 10:00 pm and Twilight had just fallen asleep in her bed, again. She was woken up by a scream from somepony earlier and went out to investigate to find out it was a false alarm.
She was currently dreaming about studying. It was a good dream, she was restudying the book 'Magical mysteries and conundrums the 5th installment', a personal favourite of hers. She was had just reached page 456 when her candle light started to flicker. She looked towards it and it stopped. She had just turned back to her book when it started to flicker again. Now a little annoyed, she put her focus on the candle in question which continued to flicker without a breeze. She looked around for anything that could be making a breeze. All the windows were closed and Owlowicious and spike were asleep. Now rather confused, she turned her attention back to the candle. It seemed to be flickering in the direction of the window, almost like it was pointing her towards it. No longer able to hold her curiosity she got up and trotted over to the window which the candle was pointing at. She looked outside at the empty streets of ponyville, well almost empty. Their was a single pony standing just in the shadow near a lamp. Said pony then proceeded to walk into the light of the lamp and reveal who it was.
Neon.
She woke up immediately after and realised that it was just a dream. She then looked towards the window that she had seen Neon through. 'It felt so real... Better safe than sorry I guess.' Twilight thought as she got out of bed and trotted over to the window. She looked out towards where she had seen Neon. Her heart stopped. There in the shadows near the lamp was a pony looking strait towards her. They looked towards each other for about a minute. It then trotted into an alley without letting her see who it was.
Now Twilight was scared.
