Why does thinking HURT!

Where am I?

Hello Every pony! this here is my very first MLP:FiM Fan fiction and I pretty much had this Idea stuck the entire week just begging me to be written, to start with this is more of my take on equestrian's history and such but I'm using Naruto because he is my favorite anime character,if you like please leave me nice reviews, if you don't like it constructive criticism is always welcome, just don't flame please.

"Its over Madara, you already lost" came the ragged but strong willed words of a very tired Uzumaki Naruto as he stood in front of a downed Uchiha Madara possessing the Jinchuuriki body of Uchiha Obito, the landscape showed heavy signs of a massive battle between the unnatural powers of the Juubi and the fully powered Sage Ninja Jinchuuriki.

"P-per...haps that is so... Uzuma...ki" answered Madara in an even more tired tone of voice "but if... I am... to be d-defeated by the likes of you..." he said as he took the broken monk staff he had created with his black chakra "I'm going to make sure... I take you with me!" he said as he threw the staff towards Narutos feet and loosing the final wisp of life he held in the process.

The broken staff stabbed the ground before Naruto and the floor beneath him seemed to ripple like water, not like sand but like if reality itself was being disturbed, his eyes widened and he barely had time to turn back and take in the final sight of his friends.

Sasuke was still unconscious and being tended by Sakura, the kages and Orochimaru were either resting or unconscious, Even Tsunade was apparently mourning the death of Orochimaru, his father and the previous Hokages had been long since defeated by then so at least they were in peace, and the rest of the shinobi forces were still behind that black barrier made by madara although it was dissolving and Hinata was seemingly running towards him.

"Yeah... I think they're going to be fine, I'm tired, I do deserve the rest right Kurama?" were the last word of Naruto as he disappeared into the ripple in time and space...

"...to...ru...o...Na...to..., Nar...to... *Naruto*! wake up you Idiot! Naruto!" came the sound of a concerned but annoyed voice that gave hima headache that threatened his head to split in half.

"Ugh... shut up Kurama.. Im trying to rest in peace..." mumbled Naruto still half-unconscious.

"You're not dead you idiot!" Kurama yelled at the blond "I haven't the slightest Idea of where are we but we are not dead" he said with a huff making Naruto stir into consciousness.

"Wha- what? what the hell happened I thought we died and why is everything so dark" Naruto asked as he tried to look around, he was surrounded almost completely in darkness, the only source of light seemed to be a low bluish light hitting some rock wall not to far from him "Are we in a cave? how did we get here?" Naruto said in curiosity of his current situation.

"No idea but we better get out of here maybe then well have a better understanding of where are we" were the words of Kurama as Naruto stood up and tried to walk towards the light "Whoa!" exclaimed Naruto as he fell on his hands "what is it?" Kurama asked.

"I... I have no idea... its hard to stand up, but i don't feel tired or anything" Naruto said as he tried to stand up once again and walk.

"Maybe its because of the last battle, we don't remember anything of how we got here maybe your sense of balance is screwed up as well... in the meantime try to crawl towards the light we can try and fix that later" said Kurama as he considered the lack of balance in Naruto.

"Alright here goes nothing I guess" Naruto said as he started walking on all fours, strangely enough it felt natural to do so once he reached the light he saw the entrance to the cave and hurried up to get outside.

He was in the middle of a dense forest but everything seemed to be of much brighter color than he remembered things being, he heard running water and hurried up to a nearby stream as he tried to scoop up some water to drink he realized he had no hands anymore, his arms were furry and ended up in what appeared to be hoofs.

wide eyed Naruto looked behind to see his legs ad notice they were also thick dark gray and ended in hoofs, he tried to glimpse his reflection on the water of the stream but it was night and the poor lighting combined with the movement of the stream prevented him to see beyond that of his silhouette, he noted then that it was not a human shape.

he was quadrupedal and with a thick body, his head was big and had a muzzle, he seemed to have two horns on his head but upon closer inspection they were his ears and he had a mane and tail like that of a horse.

"Am I a horse? Kurama what is going on?!" Naruto said entering in slight panic while looking at his frontal hooves.

"I... I think so... although you seem shorter than a normal horse maybe a pony" were the words of Naruto's tenant as he also seemed stupefied by the change.

"Great so I'm a baby horse! thanks Kurama that makes me feel better!" Naruto snapped back at the mental fox.

"Hey I'm on your side remember? I'm just as confused as you are" answered Kurama "maybe we're in one the horse summon reals and the Natural energy here turned us into a pony?" came the tentative answer he came up with.

"No, it makes no sense even if we were in a different summoning realm taking in the natural energy wouldn't make me into their summon Id still become a frog, and how do you explain that I haven't turned to stone yet?" Naruto said while pondering on Kurama's thoughts.

"Anyway lets not dwell on it right now it seems to be nearing midnight if the moon is to be believed lets seek out shelter for now" Kurama advices Naruto who thinks a little.

"Yeah I guess you are right how about the cave we were in it didn't seem to be inhabited by anything I could just shove a stone on the entrance to make sure nothing enters while we are asleep" said Naruto and he felt the mental nod of Kurama, tracing back his steps to the cave he noticed a nearby boulder big enough to cover the entrance.

He pushed it while channeling chakra and was relieved to find it worked as he was easily able to push the boulder and used it to close the entrance, once he was finished he laid on the floor where the moonlight filtered through the boulder and tried to sleep.

A few hours later Naruto woke up with a start "Ah! what the hell?" he yelled as the pale moonlight quickly was replaced by fierce sun rays "It can't be day it was pitch dark a few hours ago!" Naruto grumbled as he took once again upon his predicament "Damn it I'm still a horse it wasn't a dream" he mumbled afterwards as he proceeded to push the boulder away from the cave's entrance.

As the sun rays entered the cave he noticed the cave to be filled to the brim with gemstones of many kinds, there were sapphires, rubies, amethysts, topazes, hell he even saw some diamond in there all incrusted in the stony walls "Bloody hell that's a hell lot of gems" he said his jaw nearly hitting the floor.

"Naruto don't just stand there like a dumb ass grab as many gemstones as you can!" yelled Kurama from his mind

"And how? I have no bags or anything to carry them much less something to scrape them off the walls like you know hands!" Naruto replied the annoying greedy fox.

"Then remember where we are go to a nearby town or settlement or whatever and get a bag and tool or something, if you cant find anything then kill some animal from the forest and use its skin as a bag" replied his tenant with an indignant huff.

With a roll of his eyes Naruto took to the forest he looked around and saw a rather large tree nearby, he channeled some chakra on his fee..hooves and jumped as high as possible into a rather tall branch, he did this twice more to reach the apex of the tree which reached above the forest leaves.

Keeping himself steady with his frontal hooves he glanced around in search for a settlement town or otherwise, after a little he devised the edge of the forest a bit off to the south and what appeared to be huts and other buildings on it. he nodded and jumped down cushioning his fall with chakra. he then began running towards that clearing but on foot so as to leave a trace he could follow after getting supplies.

About an hour later Naruto reached the end of the forest and cautiously he walked towards the village, the first creatures he saw there were other ponies, some were glancing at him in curiosity others seemed to ignore him.

"how strange I haven't ever seen horses with such colors, much less ones capable of building and doing what these do... maybe we are in the summoning realms" Naruto said quietly to himself as he venture further into the village, then he happened upon a larger building with a sign and he glance upwards, a frown suddenly sat on his face "hey Kurama" he thought "can you read that?" he asked mentally to his fox companion.

Kurama glanced though Naruto's eyes and saw the strange writing on the sign "Nope not in the slightest what do you think it says?" the fox asked Naruto.

"It says *Public Library... How can I read it? I know it isn't Japanese but I can read it just as easily"* Naruto thought wide eyed.

"I...I dont know... maybe because you are a pony? I just cant explain it" said Kurama at the implications "Anyway since you can read whatever that is lets head into the library luckily well come across a book that explains where are we and what is going on" the fox said to Naruto who just silently nodded and headed into the library.

Inside Naruto tried to be as inconspicuous as possible and headed to the shelves in search of any book that could help him understand his predicament but on his way there he happened upon a mirror and for the first time he got a clear look at his appearance.

Naruto gazed upon his own reflection shocked he had seen a blurry silhouette of himself before and he had see the color of his ehm... fur coat but he saw it in greater detail and he finally came upon the realization that he was a pony now, even his whisker like marks were on his cheeks and his eyes remained the usual ocean blue, his hair(and tail) remained brilliant yellow but it had a silver streak on it and finally he had this long glaringly obvious horn in the middle of his forehead.

"How the hell did I not notice that before" Naruto said as he looked at his horn he shook his head after a bit and thought "calm down Naruto first thing's first you need to find out as much as you can about this place as quickly as possible" he rectified himself and with a final glance at his pony form he headed towards the bookshelves.

He skipped though the sections names searching for history books much to the confusion of Kurama and finally in the 6th bookshelf there was the History and Geography section he took a book of geography and read the title out loud.

"Divisions of the land: a guidebook for earthen ponies" he said and looked at the first large map in the book "this looks nothing like the geography of home, it doesn't even look like the summon realms... just where am I?..." Naruto said softly.

Oh for Kami's sake!

Yo SilverMail back with the second chapter, first thanks xbox432 for the comment I do tend to have a few mistakes after all, English isn't my main language, about Kurama, you see he used to be all about rage but since he and Naruto became bff in the manga he is just cynical and grumpy like the jerk/bff everyone has since cynicism is too little interaction I decided to give him into a few other focal points such as greed, just so he can have a wider interaction with Naruto... anyway here we go.

Naruto tried to remain calm as he saw the map and saw no resemblance to his homeland geography or even the maps he had seen around Mt. Myoboku of the other summon realms "what do you think of this Kurama have you seen anyplace that resembles this map?" Naruto said to his tenant mentally.

"Nnnope, doesn't ring any bell, hell I've even roamed the summon reals a few centuries ago but nothing even remotely like this... maybe, mmm no I doubt it" kurama mumbled at the end.

"What is it? have an Idea?" Naruto thought desperately "because really if it helps anything is welcomed~ttebayo".

"Well I suppose I could but only if you promise not to freak out alright?" Kurama said to Naruto who rolled his eyes at him and then nodded "alright.. maybe this doesn't look like any place we've been in before, because its not part of our world" Kurama said with doubt.

"What do you mean with that are you saying that this is not our planet?" Naruto asked Kurama wide eyed.

"Not exactly, listen this may be too much for your pea sized brain but there are an infinite number of parallel realities that exist, ours is just one of them, this is a reality where apparently there are ponies instead of humans, its the same as our planet, but it's not *our** planet"* Kurama tried to explain Naruto.

"You are making my brain hurt" Naruto mumbled while massaging his temples "so you're saying we're in an alternate dimension like the summon realms but not the summon realms?" he thought "then is there anyway for us to summon ourselves back to the elemental nations?".

"More or less this is not an alternate dimension but an alternate *reality*, this reality has its own set of alternate dimensions that may be similar or wildly different than it is normally, but still resemble each other in a way, there is no Japanese or humans here as far as we have noticed since these creatures have hooves rather than hands it is likely they cant use ninjutsus though, so I doubt we'll be able to get back home, besides time may be way faster in this reality so maybe by the time we figure out something everyone we knew will probably be dead" said Kurama

"..." Naruto was paralized, his eyes growing bigger and his pupils getting smaller in shock "WHAT! are you kidding me! never go home? ever again?! bu-but what about my friends and granny Tsunade what about the war and the sealing of all shinobi techniques by Madara's jutsu elimination going worldwide?" Naruto asked before shutting up as the brown coated librarian shushed while glaring at him.

"well that exactly... Madara eliminated the ability to mold chakra into ninjutsu from the face of earth, so I guess there wont be any more ninja's they should learn to live in peace, furthermore since you are the last person capable of using ninjutsu from our world I doubt anyone will be able to summon us or we'll be able to find our reality, who knows how far Madara flung us from reality" Kurama tried to explain Naruto as simple as he could.

"yeah my brain hurts... sigh so I guess we are stuck here forever huh? well I was about to accept us dead so that's kind of an improvement I suppose" Naruto thought " so why don't we settle somewhere around, i mean these ponies haven't really been nice to me and I think it has to do with this horn in my head" He said to the fox getting mentally tired by the whole thing.

"maybe you should read that history book to see what the fuzz is with you everyone seems to react differently to you but most are not happy yet they don't act confused oh and get a bag and a pickaxe for those gems along the way... I'm just saying" Kurama said while shrugging his shoulders.

Rolling his eyes Naruto opened the second book and began reading it, he learned that in the world there were many intelligent creatures but the dominant species were the ponies, that there were three different kind of ponies, the earthen ponies who had the greater physical strength and the ability to grow food from the land "I thought anyone could grow plants?" Naruto said to Kurama who just shrugged Their Current leader was the Head of Government Earthquake McHoof.

The Pegasus ponies who had wings and the ability to interact physically with clouds and manipulate weather "That sounds cool why was i not one of those" Naruto thought "Keep reading you idiot I don't understand it" answered Kurama, Naruto discovered the Pegasi were very Militaristic and savage, their current leader was a pegasus called General Typhoon conqueror of the 8th cloud land, Naruto raised an eyebrow at this but he kept reading on the final race the horned horses capable of using witchcraft to raise the sun and the moon to create night and day, they were very arrogant and despotic and their leader was King Tyrannous Lord of Dusk and Dawn, these final race was called.

"Really? Unicorns come on dude you have to be kidding me! those girly things!?" Naruto yelled mentally while Kurama was rolling on the floor laughing his furry ass off.

"Hahaha so that's what those unicorn things look like and you are one of them now Hahaha oh boy Im having a field day with this" Kurama the eternal Jerk said to Naruto who ignored the ignorant fool with dignity.

By which I mean he started to mentally chase the fox who shrunk to normal fox size to evade his chaser in a very goofy manner.

After a lengthy and embarrassing mental chase he resumed his reading, apparently Unicorns Pegasi and Earthen ponies were in a temporal truce that while shaky benefited all races "no wonder they don't seem particularly happy with me here Unicorns basically boss them around with their magic, I'd be surprised to see a Pegasus around here as well... hopefully they'll give me no trouble on buying supplies and I'll just head to the Unicorn Kingdom" Naruto whispered.

"Dont forget the gems they'll be useful in the long run we can trade them for money later" Kurama reminded Naruto who just tiredly nodded to his fox companion.

Naruto stood up and put the books back to where they belonged and quietly headed off the library while being watched like a hawk by the librarian "Wow that wasn't awkward at all" he said as he reached the street "now lets see mmm the market is... over there!" Naruto noted an area of the town filled with earth ponies and the classic noise of market salesmen "or... well.. Sales-pony I guess? man this is annoying" he huffed as he trotted there.

Once in the market he quickly found the hardware store where he put his Ninja skills to play, sticking to the shadows and softening the sound of his movements with chakra, he stuck to the ceilings and in a silent manner he stole a brown saddle, a pickaxe and a neck pouch, he managed to maneuver through the crown without drawing suspicion and accomplished his task once he had gotten far away enough "I'll pay for these later I promise~ttebayo" he thought.

"Oh don't waste your gemstones on this A-holes focus on the important things like our own survival and keeping as many gems as possible" Kurama said while whispering the last part to which Naruto rolled his eyes.

A while later Naruto was on the cave ready with the pickaxe on his hoofs "I have no Idea how I can grab things with these fingerless hoofs but I don't think I wanna figure it out" he said to himself as he began removing the precious gems from the cave walls and ceiling.

After a couple of hours he had managed to fill both large bags of his saddle with many different types of gems and many more broken and small gems littered the floor he grabbed a hoofful and poured the bigger ones on the pouch and headed back to the town.

Once in town the first thing he did was buy a dark brown cloak that his his features especially his horn, he also bought some other things with the gemstones like horseshoes and necessary traveling stuff, lastly he silently left enough gemstones on the counter of the hardware store to pay for the thing he bought but didnt interact with the employee any further than a wink from afar.

Naruto was ready to leave town and head east to the unicorn kingdoms when his stomach trembled "Oh that's right I haven't eaten anything since I got here, I wonder where can I get some good beef ramen" Naruto thought and Kurama began stammering and hesitatingly said to "Naruto emh Naruto... you do know that horses are herbivores right? there's not gonna be any beef ramen" said the large mental fox.

"Really oh that sucks but ok, as long as I can get some miso or vegetable ramen we'll be fine" Naruto said dejectedly and Kurama stammered again "Uhm you see I did tell you this was a different reality right? Kurama said and once Naruto nodded he continued "yeah... there's probably not going to be any Japanese food like ramen around here" he said and Naruto finally snapped.

"WHAT!!! are you saying there is NO RAMEN!!! OH FOR KAMI'S SAKE! NOOOOOOOO!".

Those butt tattoos

Hello every-pony! here is the next chapter, I hope this one brings a bit more light on Naruto's situation at least concerning the location since I believe the time period was clear in the previous chapter but anyway lets continue with the story why don't we?

Naruto depressingly trotted forward on the dirt road mumbling under his breath a thousand curses and making threatening promises, to whatever god there was out there.

"Stop your incessant whining Naruto, I already told you that you have to get used to this new world and that includes its food sources, besides you can always make some ramen yourself its not like its such a complicated dish, its just an over rated soup" came the words of Kurama as he covered his ears from Naruto's dumb food related monologue.

Naruto gasped "How dare you! ramen was a gift of kami! it was the single most delicious food there was, besides all I know how to make is a basic vegetable ramen because ayame-neechan didn't want to teach me any recipe that wasn't healthy" Naruto huffed with indignation "anyway how far are we from the nearest settlement, I've yet to accustom myself to walking in hooves, though it is comfortable i don't want to walk all night" Naruto asked his fox friend as he kept moving down the road.

Kurama consulted the memory of the map Naruto saw in the book "Mmm well not too far really i think if you hurry up you´ll make it before sunset, just take the next exit to the right" the fox said while looking at other areas of the map.

Naruto nodded and he saw the exit a little down the road, as he neared the town he noticed some clouds and some shadows flying around them "So those are Pegasus huh? no wonder I didn't see a single cloud in the road they only bring weather to towns and especially towns with crops" Naruto noted as he saw some clouds raining on top of the farms but being just comfortably shady in the other areas of town.

Kurama then thought of something "Hey if this is a mixed town unlike the previous earth pony based village then maybe there will be some unicorns, you could learn to use their witchcraft don't you think?" Kurama asked of Naruto, trying to make his host and friend (reluctantly) more adapted to this new world.

Naruto thought for a second "You know that might not be a bad Idea but considering what we learned from the books I'd say they probably don't call their abilities witchcraft and it was mostly bias from the writer, maybe they call it something differently like chakra or jutsu hopefully" Naruto thought.

"Lets try not to jump to conclusions and subtly try and make them tell us what it is and then teach it to you ok?" answered Kurama to Naruto's thoughts.

Naruto nodded and noticed as he got closer to the center of the town that there were a few buildings floating in the air that appeared to be made of clouds "They build their houses with clouds? I wonder if it's a resistant material?" Naruto thought.

Once in town he turned his side to side discreetly so as to check on every pony that passed to see if anyone was a unicorn, after a few minutes he noticed that even though Pegasus lived here the streets had nothing but earth ponies "mmm I wonder why?" in that moment an rather young earth pony with a light yellow coat and reddish brown mane was looking at him making Naruto slightly uncomfortable with her large green eyes "Can I help you kid?" he tentatively asked.

"Why are you here mister unicorn? I thought yer caravan had left yesterday with our food?" the young filly asked with a strange but adorable accent and that answered Naruto's question immediately Unicorns did not live here they sent caravans for the food tribute and the last one already left, the pegasus probably lived here because they helped maintain the field with more frequency that the unicorns came "did they forget ye sir?" the big eyed earth filly asked again.

"No little one, they did not forget me I'm not part of them I'm just a wanderer and not part of the Unicorn kingdom though I am searching for the unicorns could you tell me where did they go?" Naruto said to the little filly.

The filly nodded and pointed Naruto to the east wall where he could devise a wooden gate that was being closed "They left that way mister but they are closing the walls already 'cause the sun's going down so you should find somewhere to sleep till t'morrow" she said while pointing then to an inn next to the gates "but travel thought the forest can be dangerous I reckon tha best way ta meet them unicorns would be to wait net weeks caravan mister" she said to him.

Naruto nodded to the little filly and reached a hoof under his cloak into the saddle bags, he took a nice sized gem and offered it to the little filly noting that by coincidence the gem was an emerald the same color as the fillies eyes "Thank you little one take this with my appreciation, look its the same color of your eyes" he said with a smile that curved his eyes much like his previous gray-haired sensei.

The little filly's eyes grew twice as big surprising Naruto who thought she was already as adorable as possible "Really!? thank you kind sir you're nothing like the meanie Unicorns that come here sometimes thanks!" she grinned and pulled on his hoof "here! the Inn is run by me parents" she said with a smile took the green gem in her mouth as she trotted off.

Naruto shrugged and followed the filly to the inn it was just a few blocks from where they stood before and while it wasn't a big building it seemed cozy enough.

Once Naruto entered the inn followed by the filly the pony behind the counter raised an eyebrow, he was a brown earth pony with a slicked back dark brown mane and a thick mustache, he had on blue vest and a red bow tie "Apricot where have ya been filly? and who is this...Unicorn" he said the last part without emotions, no anger or mistrust just boredom of his presence.

"Look papa! Mr unicorn gave me this!" She said holding the emerald "he got no place ta stay tha night, can he stay here?" the little filly said with a smile in her face, the elder pony looked over at Naruto and grunted a response.

"Ye sure ye wanna stay in tis old inn sir Unicorn? sure there are fancier inns round town for ye kin, with bigger rooms ta boot, I could even take ye thar if ye wanted" he said narrowing his eyes fully expecting him to accept the better inns.

"Nah thank you for your proposal but I'll be fine just give me a modest room I don't like too much luxury really it kind of makes me uncomfortable" Naruto said the last part partially covering his muzzle with his hoof "besides I need to find some things around town before I leave so maybe I'll stay tomorrow as well, otherwise this inn is conveniently close to the exit so it's all good" Naruto said with a smile.

Mumbling a bit the elder pony shrugged and said "I s'pose tha Jewell is tha payment fer the room?" he said while trying to see how to take the Jewell from his daughter without disappointing her, when he heard a little laughter come from the robed Unicorn.

"Nah I gave that to her because she helped me a while back the payment will be independent of that it was just a gift in appreciation" Naruto said with a smile as he entered further in the inn and handed the moustachioed pony a small bag full of bits.

The Earth pony was surprised by all this, most unicorn were snobby and pompous, but this one was kind, generous and modest, perhaps he was different or not time would reveal more though so he just nodded and counted the bits, he then reached for a key to a medium sized room, it wasn't the cheapest one but not the largest either.

"There ye go boy 3rd room to tha right, follow me I'll open it fer ye and help you settle in" he said as he walked to the room this being next to the stairs leading to the second story, directly opposite of the room was the kitchen Naruto noted.

The pony unlocked the door and pushed it open with his hooves, once in Naruto noted it was a fair sized room with a good sized closet a large but invariable single bed and a nightstand with a lamp, it had a window with the curtains drawn on the left side of the bed, and a comfy rug decorated the floor, to the right of the entrance was a small open door leading to a private bathroom, and to the left side there was a mid-sized table "This is perfect it will do until I meet the Unicorns thank you" Naruto said as the innkeeper nodded.

"Now the room has its own bathroom, the bed box has two drawers and there's hot water if you want to take a bath, it doesn't have a bathtub but the shower is big, breakfast is at 7am, meals are at 3 pm and dinnertime is at 8 pm, you can serve yourself to anything in the kitchen in the white freezer, you can.." he trailed off about the hotel but shut up as he saw Naruto take off his cloak, he immediately noted the lack of a cutie mark in the strange unicorn and was shocked "boy! ye ain't got yer cutie mark yet?! thought it was impossible at yer age!" the innkeeper said exalted.

"A cutie what now?" Naruto said while the pony gave him an incredulous look and pointed at his blank flank Naruto took a few seconds to think about where he was pointing not getting what was wrong "Maybe he means the strange markings we've seen in the other adult ponies you know like he who has a scroll and a plume" was the input of Kurama.

"You mean those butt tattoos? nah I don't have any of those dunno why everyone else has them though" Naruto wondered much to the brown earth pony's surprise "are they some king of ritual marking or something?" he honestly wondered.

"A ritual ma... Where have ye been living boy!? in a cave?" was the stupefied answer of the innkeeper much to his shock though Naruto instantly answered with a short "yep" much to his eye-twitching surprise "boy yer seriously bonkers, listen well boy a cutie mark is yer callin in life what yer very special talent is and yer destiny how can ye not know that stuff?" he asked the grey unicorn.

"Wait you're telling me that those pictures naturally appear once a per...pony finds their true talent? how is that even possible?" he said much to himself as to the stallion and Kurama, Kurama had no idea and apparently the earth stallion didnt either since he just shrugged and said.

"It just is boy there ain't no logic to it" he said casually as if dismissing this ridiculous statement "Look I ain't got a clue on why ye don't know this stuff but if ye want ah can tell ye all ye want in detail but t'morrow cuz I'm tired and me wife is asleep from a while ago just sleep and we can talk 'bout it t'morrow" he said as he rubbed his forehead with his hoof and left.

Naruto was confused and shocked "wait does that mean that that destiny bullshit that Neji spoke about is real?" Naruto asked to himself but got an answer from Kurama "I doubt it, the simplest explanation based on what we just found out is that their tattoos show what they are the best at and they build their futures based on this special skill, and they just call it destiny besides, destiny is what you are meant to be not what the world dictates you will do like the fate thing Neji believed in" Kurama said "Thanks Kurama I guess I needed that" Naruto sighed as he went to bed.

Naruto turned off the light and noted through the window how the Pegasus hit the clouds to make it rain and wondered what using magic would actually be like.

The next morning came rather quickly and Naruto had barely slept at all, once it was around 6:30 Naruto got out of the room and headed to the kitchen where there was some people reunited in the table, there was the little filly from yesterday as well as her father the innkeeper, there was also a dark blue stallion with a spiky black mane with a ruby red streak sipping some coffee his eyes and mark hidden by the position he was in next to the owner and a light green mare with a pink mane her eyes were the same shade of pink as her mane and she had a cluster of white flowers as her cutie mark.

He saw that a pale yellow pony with a messy reddish orange mane, her tail was just as messy and she had a black pot with steam as her cutie mark "possibly her talent is cooking" Kurama thought and Naruto reasoned the same since that's what she was doing.

The fist to notice him was the innkeeper pony "Ah mister unicorn ye finally came out of ye room, good that e join us fer tha breakfast, this here be apricot Jam, me daughter" he said while ruffling the mane of the filly whom he met yesterday "these here be Endicott Bloom" he said while pointing to the green mare who nodded and smiled at him "and Ironblood" said stallion lowered the newspaper looking at Naruto with apathetic red eyes and nodded to him before he resumed reading his paper they both be livin in tha inn as guests and that over there be me lovely wife Ginger Breeze" he said as the cook turned and waved at Naruto with a warm smile even in her bright green eyes "I finally there be me Cocoa Butter at ye service welcome ta Starlight Inn and ye be?" he said while looking expectantly at Naruto.

Naruto smiled and shook Cocoa's hoof "My name is Naruto Uzumaki glad to meet you all" he said and he didn't miss the strange look that passed through everyone's faces, even the inexpressive Ironblood raised an eyebrow.

"Naru..what now? boy that be a mouthful ta say care to repeat that?" Cocoa said while Naruto just raised an eyebrow and realized from the way the ponies spoke that his name actually did sound strange.

"Ehm.... just call me Naruto I guess" Naruto said and saw with a sweat drop how the other ponies were mouthing the name still.

"Ehm alright Naru-toe? ye have a real odd name boy but anyhow lets get eatin fist and we can have our talk after" he said thankful that Apricot had not seen that Naruto had no cutie mark, she'd get traumatized since she was worrying about her own cutie mark.

Naruto nodded and took a seat across Cocoa between Ironblood and Endicott Bloom, soon enough Ginger Breeze came with a few plates balanced and her hoofs, she took a paddle in her mouth and began serving everyone some very flat and folded soft breads that had had some kind of white cream and strawberries inside and a white powder on top, it seemed to be toasted as well, Naruto's curiosity gained the best of him as the sweet smell invaded his nostrils "mmm smells delicious Ms Breeze, what is it?" he said trying to dissimulate his curiosity.

Ginger smiled and sad "Why thank you Narutoh its my own recipe of strawberry toasted pancakes but I doubt they are that uncommon surely you've seen them before right?" she asked the dark gray unicorn who shook his head but didn't speak since he had his mouth full "my how awful then by all means dearie take some more!" she said as she used he paddle to give Naruto a few extra pancakes who gladly took them and shoved prepared to eat them as well.

After breakfast Endicott and Ironblood left the inn Naruto noted that Ironblood had an anvil and hammer for a cutie mark so maybe he was a blacksmith? soon Naruto's musings were cut short by Cocoa who harrumphed to call his attention.

"Now boy i reckon ye have no idea of what a cutie mark is right?" Cocoa asked to receive a nod "well it be like 'tis, a cutie mark be a pony's talent not just any talent tough, but what yer best at in yer life!, it be the definition of yerself and boy if ye dedicate to its meaning i reckon ye be tha happiest fella ye can be" he told Naruto "nopony decides anothers destiny a cutie mark is the ultimate definition of oneself and nopony else get it boy?" .

Naruto did get it with the help of Kurama, it was what they had believed before but they just got confirmation but then thought came to Naruto "And how can I get my cutie mark for example?" he asked Cocoa who just shook his head with a few chuckles.

"Noone can give ye yer cutie mark ye have to discover it yerself, and earn it too, just do what feels nat'ral and ye'll find what it be" he said as he went upstairs leaving Naruto alone in the kitchen.

With questions in his mind Naruto decided to forget about it and take a visit to the library, maybe there he'd find something about the magic of Unicorns that's not written by earth pony's calling it 'witchcraft'.

Untameable and stupid

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

B-but it's not fair!

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Why does thinking HURT!

Here it is my friends sorry for the delay but in compensation its the longest chapter so far enjoy it, also I think its the first with two images in it anyway here it goes

With nothing else to do all day and not wanting to be cooped up in the inn until next time the unicorns came, Naruto made sure his blank flank was covered by his cloak and he went out into town at the inn entrance he found Apricot Jam who smiled at him "I'm going to the local library Apricot, can you point me in the right direction?" he asked of the little filly.

Said filly smiled a and nodded "Yes mister Naturoh! I know where it is!" the little pony said as she pointed down a road "it is over that way about 5 blocks and to the right!" she told him smiling and Naruto nodded before thanking her and heading that very way.

"You sure this way we'll get anything Naruto? wouldn't it be better to just go and try to reach the caravan that left yesterday? if you run with chakra you'll reach them in no time" Said Kurama but Naruto just shook his head at him.

"No its better this way if I go after them there is no guarantee they'll actually teach me anything, and I don't know anything other than the general direction of where they left even with chakra it would be a waste of time, besides Apricot said they come often for food besides If I don't find anything in this town I'll leave with no haste now that I know the way they take to the Unicorn kingdom" Naruto answered mentally to his fox companion.

Once Naruto came upon the 4rth block he noticed a peculiar sound, one of metal hitting metal and the smell of burning coal came with it, Naruto turned to the right and sure enough about a block away there was black smoke coming off a corner store, a familiar dark blue pony with a black and red mane stood in front of a round black sphere his right hoof covered in a strange glove it was thick leather and had metal plaques along it, he used it to hammer at a round piece of metal, after a few hits he would grab it with a prong using his mouth and hold it over a pot with burning coals, then after feeding the flame he would take it away to the anvil once more to cover himself from the blazing sparks he wore a leather vest with some pockets that reminded Naruto of his world's chunnin jackets, probably the ponies version of a blacksmith's apron Naruto idly thought.

The process was slightly hypnotic to Naruto as Ironblood hit the flat piece of metal until it was flat no more, after what seemed hours, the flat and round plaque of metal had taken the basic shape of a helmet, minus any ornamental additions Naruto noted that it looked just like the base piece of those armors the pegasus guards were wearing, he then began making modifications on the helmet, like a slit for the mane and such when he took notice to Naruto standing there, he harrumphed and kicked a stand behind him that had a bell, alerting of a customer.

From the building next to the forge a petite pale white mare with a 2two toned blue mane appeared, she was wearing a tan blacksmith apron much like Ironblood, her own cutie mark in the shape of a hammer covered in blue fire "Hey there!" she yelled cheerfully "I am Pale Fire, the town's blacksmith, this here is Ironblood my apprentice, he's not a pony of words but he's hardly quiet, his voice is the ring of the hammer and the roar of the white flame, the best assistant a smith-mare could ask for, what can we do for ya?" she said with a perky attitude a bright smile and a soothing voice, Naruto silently said she didn't seem resemble a blacksmith at all except for the apron and the cutie mark.

"Thanks I'm just on my way to the library but I got distracted by the forge" Naruto said but he thought of something "Say can you make anything?" he asked of her to the confusion of Kurama.

"As long as it's made of metal we can give it a try even in custom orders, we mostly do horseshoes and lost-wax castings in bronze for custom orders but we have done weapons and armor for the guards both earthen and pegasi" she said while pointing to the store where several bronze statues as well as armor and swords and spears could be seen.

"Excellent! I'll swing by later to place an order but I'm kind of in a hurry right now" Naruto said to the perky mare "I can use this chance to get some kunai and shuriken but I need to think of how to design them to work for this body I don't think I have the grip to hold Kunai like I used to... I should take a look at guards training later to see how to fight in this form" he said to Kurama mentally.

Naruto waved goodbye to Ironblood who nodded silently and inexpressibly before he resumed hammering at the helmet, once Naruto resumed his path he could see a bit ahead to the rather large building that was the library, he smiled to himself and headed there.

When he was about to enter the library he noticed the Librarian was actually a older female pegasus with a light purple coat and a white and gray mane, she had on reading glasses and smiled at him as he entered the library "can I be of assistance sir?" she asked as Naruto took off the cloak, she didn't seem to react to the fact that he was an unicorn.

"Yes actually I'm in search of a book that explains the basics of Unicorn Magic do you have anything like that?" Naruto asked hopefully as the librarian had a pensive look on her face, she consulted a notebook as she thought of something.

"Hmmm well we do have various books explaining advanced magical theories for Unicorns but I'm afraid that the basic books were all rented out about a week ago, they are not due to return until tomorrow but knowing the Unicorn who took them he'll probably just file an extension and keep them for about a month before returning them" she said and Naruto looked smashed at that comment, seeing him depressed she said "well... I could tell you the address of the one who borrowed the books so you could talk to him" Naruto perked up at this and she smiled

She took a piece of paper and copied down the address from the big book "here you go dearie, I do have to warn you though, Arcane Glyph is... special so to speak" she said much to Naruto's Confusion "he's very... well, just be very patient when dealing with him" she said with a sigh and Naruto not knowing what to do and left the building.

Once he was in the streets Naruto took a glance at the paper the librarian had written the address of the pony that had taken the book, he raised an eyebrow once he noticed the words on the paper it just said 'Eastern Gate - ask for Arcane Mist to the guards' he scratched his head with his hoof.

"how convenient the gate in question is the one closest to where we are staying... what a waste of our time, at least it didn't cost us any money" came the input of Kurama much to Naruto's irritation.

"For kami's sake Kurama stop being such a hoarder I didn't know you were this greedy" Naruto said to the mental fox "Besides there was no way to know the book we needed was in the hands ehm...hooves of another pony, besides think of it this way, if this pony reads this books often then maybe he can help me understand how to use magic, no?" Naruto said mentally while shrugging his shoulders.

Naruto made the trip back to the inn and he noticed it was already mid day but he didn't see Apricot in the park in front of the inn like in the morning, he noticed Ginger Breeze sweeping the street with a broom and he went closer to her.

"Hello miss Breeze, I was wondering if you knew where a certain Arcane Glyph lives? I only know he's somewhere around here" he asked of her and she raised an eyebrow at him.

"Well Nataro" Naruto mentally face-hoofed himself "Arcane tome doesn't really live in the city... he has a small cottage on the prairie behind that knoll" she said while pointing to the gate "its a 10 minute walk from the gates but Arcane Glyph is quite... just be patient with the old pony please Raruto" she said much to his irritation and bid him goodbye as Naruto nodded and headed towards the gates.

"That's two ponies in a row that tell me that, should we take it as an omen of sorts?" Naruto asked Kurama as he walked towards the gates kurama in return shrugged at him.

"Not sure but considering your constant luck then yes we should and be prepared for the worst and the best possible outcomes" he said scratching behind his ears "just in case lest leave the jewels safe in the hotel room" he said casually.

Naruto rolled his eyes at Kurama's antics and was about to say something when he noticed Kurama kept scratching "you okay dude? you've been scratching all day" Naruto asked of his old friend.

"I'm not sure I just started having this itch in my skin since I woke up, its not too terrible but its kind of uncomfortable, meh... I'm sure it'll pass out eventually, now go I want to take a mental bath and I want my privacy" he said while summoning a giant bathtub filled with bubbles "What privacy you're naked all the time" Naruto mentally shouted at his fried

"you're naked now as well in case you haven't noticed ponies go naked most of the time" Kurama answered in a deadpan manner as he submerged to the eyes in the building-sized mental bathtub, making Naruto's eyes widen.

"Holy shit I'm naked!" Naruto shouted to the questioning glances of various ponies, Naruto suddenly blushed and ran towards the gate as fast as his hooves allowed him while mumbling under his breath "stupid naked Kurama and his naked commentaries, i hope your fur falls from the itch" all the time the mental fox laughing at his expense.

Once he reached the gates he noticed the pegasus hardly looked at him but pulled a lever anyway to let him though the gate Naruto wondered if they weren't soldiers rather that simple gate guards considering their seriousness and synchronization, the resemblance to Konoha's old gate guards was practically non existent.

Regardless of the idiot antics of Izumo and Kotetsu Naruto trotted on determined to reach the house beyond the little hill and ask about the magic book, with any luck he might even be able to borrow it or learn magic from an unicorn.

As he exited the gates and went on top of the knoll he noticed how to the distance he could see a small purple hut that had a pink roof and a chimney that was emitting a green foggy smoke, Naruto wondered how that smoke was possible when suddenly an explosion sounded in the hut and from the windows came billowing out large amounts of the green fog.

Naruto's instincts forced him to run towards the hut cutting a trek downwards from about 5 minutes to around 30 seconds by running with the aid of chakra, once he reached the hut and knocked oped the door which proceeded to release the last gush of green smoke, fogging up his vision slightly Naruto entered the house "Hello? anyone here? are you alright?" he asked trying to find the pony that live there.

After a bit the green mist lessened and Naruto could see now well, the house was a disaster, nothing seemed dirty except an explosion of purple goop near the chimney but there were books and scrolls thrown all over the place, buried under a pile of books that seemed to have fallen from a toppled over bookshelf came a struggling light blue horn that belonged to the owner of the house.

Naruto tried reaching him but it was hard maneuvering amidst the mountains of books and scrolls without breaking anything, Eventually the horn glowed with purple aura and all the books surrounding the pony were levitating as the stallion dusted himself off and his vest, Naruto was fascinated at seeing actual magic at work.

Naruto Idly noted that the unicorn had a light blue coat and a messy curled mane of dark blue and pink hues, his tail was short but equally as messy as his mane, Naruto couldn't see the unicorn's face or his cutie mark from this angle tough.

The pony shook himself and tried to remove the sooth and goop from the explosion from his coat while mumbling "Alright I need less pixie dust and more dragon's tail... maybe a bit of lavender?" he said not paying attention to Naruto.

"Ehm... are you alright sir?" Naruto asked tentatively but loud enough to break the unicorn from his musings who turned around to face him, Naruto noted how he seemed to be older because of various crinkles and folds on his face, he had purple eyes, he had a long beard that was dark blue pink but unlike his mane and tail, it was straight, he also saw his cutie mark which was an open book with a pink star in the middle and smaller dark blue stars around it, he was wearing a white shirt and a brown vest.

"Oh a customer! Greetings friend!" he yelled cheerfully as he straightened up and finished dusting off his clothes "I am Arcane Glyph welcome to Arcane's hut of enchantment, what can I help you with" he finished with a grin as he looked at Naruto.

"Ehm.. hi I'm assuming you're Arcane glyph, right?" Naruto asked to his nod "Alright look, you checked out a book from the library I was wondering if I could borrow it for a bit?" he asked of the strange unicorn who seemed to break into thought.

"Hmmm curious, town filled with earth ponies little to no use for the book, hood perfect for hiding a horn or wings interest in book means likely unicorn interest in powerful spells likely but improbable, book useless to most unicorns a children's book at best, other reasoning evident, perhaps... no, unlikely, high magical aura but seemingly untapped, eyes full of wonder, confusion questioning, Oh! I did it Again didn't I?" he said in quick succession as he invaded Naruto's personal space seemingly popping out from different places and angles much to Naruto's confusion.

"Sorry i tend to get excited when confronted with something curious anyway why do you want the book young unicorn, there's hardly anything useful in there much less powerful spells if that's your need" Glyph asked tentatively with a small smirk barely hid behind his big inquisitive eyes.

"Well I don't actually... I..."Naruto started but didn't know how to say it properly "I don't know any magic at all not a single spell" Naruto said much to the confusion and joy of glyph.

"I knew it!" Glyph said joyful "but how can it be possible" now he sounded shocked "my hypothesis was correct" once again joy "but all unicorns know magic! since foals!" once again shock

"Naruto quick stop him before he begins ranting again" yelled Kurama and Naruto wasted no time in doing it quickly interrupting him with the first thing he thought of to call his attention "I haven't ever used my magic I don't know how to" he said much to Glyph's shock.

"What! honestly? wow little colt where have you been living a cave?" he asked and much to his surprise Naruto meekly responded.

"Kind of... yes" Naruto said while scratching the back of his head with a hoof "It's kind of complicated but lets say I was raised not even knowing I could do magic until recently" Naruto said convincingly shutting glyph up.

"Well this changes things... for starters this book will not be useful to you at all then because it implies you already know how to channel magic" he said while making a book bloat in from of him while being enveloped in a pink aura "however I am most curious about you so I'll make you a proposal, I will teach you myself about magic, but in exchange, I want you to come here everyday until I deem you worthy of having that horn" he said while flipping said horn on Naruto's forehead with a grin "Deal?" he said holding his hoof.

Naruto was shocked and he mentally grinned at kurama as they got the best possible outcome "Yes! thank you Arcane glyph-san! thats awesome" Naruto said excitedly much to Glyph's joy and equally big grin.

"Excellent! now for the first order of busyness..." he said with a sudden somber seriousness "lets EAT!" he then yelled happily much to Naruto's confusion, as Naruto was about to ask him somethig his horn suddenly lit up a bright pink as everything thrown by the explosion began glowing the same shade of pink and they began levitating and floating back to their original positions much to Naruto's awe.

Then a table appeared in front of them and along two chairs and some other utensils began setting themselves unto place then from the fireplace the cauldron with the purple goop floated close to them along 2 loafs of bread, he cut some slices of the loaf and dipped the knife in the purple goop which released a green mist as it was cut "how many sandwiches do you want?" he said to Naruto's shock.

"Wha.. wait! didn't that thing just explode!?" Naruto yelled while pointing at the cauldron "Now you're eating it what gives!?" he asked of his host as he began laughing mirthfully.

"Ho ho ho this is actually a homemade marmalade, I'm trying to make something tastier than Pb&J but so far the prototype explodes as I'm mixing the ingredients I need to get around to that eventually I guess but I assure you it tastes very good and its perfectly safe after the ingredients mixed" he said while taking a bite of he sandwich he made, and humming at its flavor he prepared another one and gave it to Naruto who looked at the offered thing curiously.

Naruto just shrugged "well what the hell Itadakimassu" he said as he took a bite of the sandwich, is eyes widened as the flavor immediately flooded his mouth, the goop itself tasted sweet and rich with a slight lumpy texture, but the green mist was filled with a juicy fresh taste that melted in his mouth making the slight salty bread mix perfectly "wow! what is this taste it's delicious" Naruto said as he devoured the bread and took a few more from what Arcane had been making with his magic.

Glyph smiled from ear to ear "Thanks little one! its far from perfect but its a good start, i still need to make it less explosion prone and remove that annoying numbness after you eat it but I'm going the right way!" he said while grinning.

After they finished eating Naruto noticed the numbness and did found it annoying because he started having a temporal lisp much to Glyph and Kurama's amusement, anyway Glyph made Naruto get outside sit in the grass as he sat in front of him then he began instructing him in finding and unlocking his magic.

"Ok little one first you must know the basics of magic to understand it and unlock it, Magic is everywhere in the world from the dust in the ground to the celestial bodies in the sky, everything flows with its very particular mana" he noticed Naruto's confusion to the new world and said "Mana is what we call the energy that flows in all things, while magic is the application of the same energy" glyph then touched his horn with his hoof.

"All races have mana but only the unicorns can channel it into spells through the use of our horns" he then closed his eyes and crossed both hooves over his chest "Mana does not come from our horns however but all over our bodies its is then channeled with our thoughts" he paused and touched his head and then made a spiral movement around his horn "And it is projected through our horns like a wand from a tiny organ on the base of our horns called the Leigh gland" he said while poking the tip of his horn.

"Now earth and pegasus ponies channel the mana with their bodies, earth ponies are stronger physically and are the only ones that can grown food and trees in the ground, while pegasi use it to make themselves weightless while flying and allowing them to interact with weather, like clouds, physically, but in unicorns it is a power that comes from our minds, the greater understanding and imagination the greater control we have over magic, we can even channel mana in a certain mental equation to create effects that are incredible, this is called a spell"he said while making his horn glow a pink color and a stone was lifted before them and with a bit more concentration he made the stone be colored a bright blue.

"Now today we are going to focus on finding your mana and channeling it through your horn, no need for spells just finding that mana inside you will suffice for today" he finished and looked at Naruto who nodded.

Naruto thought he got the gist of it, "So mana is a lot like chakra but not only living beings had it but also rocks and even the sun, unicorns were the only one who could use magic spells which were like jutsus, but then it seems to be only mental energy mmm what do you think Kurama?" Naruto asked of his inner friend.

"Why ask me I'm a massive(ly handsome) chakra fox god that's too awesome to use or know how unicorn magic works but yeah I think you got pretty much what it its I can feel some other kind of energy around us and in your body but i cant grasp it so it might be that, try finding it and focus on it" Kurama said while shrugging his shoulders and scratching the fur on the back of his neck.

"Mmm ok I'll concentrate then" Naruto said to both Glyph and the fox, he evened his breath and closed his eyes he concentrated and eventually opened his eyes in front of Kyuubi's cage finding the massive red fox staring at him.

"Hmm fancy that, I guess having a mental landscape of your whole being helps in finding stuff like that huh?" Kurama said as he scratched his right ear, Seeing Naruto nod and smile at him made him roll his eyes at his human friend "Lazy idiot... well to start on the right direction I felt the energy come from that way " he said pointing the tunnel to his right.

"Thanks fuzzbutt good luck with the mental fleas" Naruto yelled as he ran towards the tunnels of his mind, laughing at Kurama's middle finger and angry expression.

His mind really had changed tough Rather than the sewer like tunnels and concrete chamber from before it had taken a more natural appearance, Kurama's chamber now looked like a small forest meadow enclosed by massive mountains, with a lake in there, the curious and beautiful thing though was that the sky was always in midnight with the moon high in the sky still it was bright enough to see perfectly thanks to various orbs of very bright light floating between the woods liek fairies.

The tunnels and passageways changed to look more natural in the environment, being caves that ran through the mountains, sometime he even found underground rivers flowing through the tunnels, although he was getting deeper in the tunnels he still felt he was actually moving upwards, being guided by a strange feeling that seemed to beacon him.

as he moved he saw various exits to the tunnels some took him to places of sunny brilliance and some to darker places, but none of these exits was the one that called for him, until he felt he had reached the top, a long chambers going upwards as a spiral staircase carved of mossy stone, he couldn't see the top of the stair but he still trekked onwards, luckily he couldn't feel fatigue in his mind or he would have given up long ago as he climbed the stairs.

Finally he reached the top a single wooden door with a brazen handle was atop the staircase, the call was louder than ever yet silent as a whisper in the wind, he pushed the door open with his hooves and saw something that would otherwise defy logic, he was in a place of untold beauty the very core of his mind.

The floor was perfectly paved in cobblestone in spiral patterns and stretched as far as the eye could see, there was a layer of water above the cobblestone that was about ankle deep, the sky was a perfect sky blue but the clouds were a dazzling orange as the sun stood still in the distance in perpetual sunset, basking the scenery in colors of beauty, there were some tiny koi fish in the waters although he could see some massive ones in the deeper areas, in front of him stood a small isle, verdant and tranquil atop of the small mound a large sakura tree in bloom, underneath it what appeared to be a small shrine and three stumps.

He walked with great calm towards the little island idly noticing the door that he came from vanished, once he reached the little island and got closer he noticed the stumps were wooden and beautifully engraved the left one had fire engraved in its base and carved in the shape and face of his mother along all the other important female figures of his past,Granny Tsunade, Sakura, Hinata etc, the one on the right was equally engraved it had lightning in the base and carved with the faces of his father and all the other important male figures to him, there was Kakashi and th old man Hokage, there was Sasuke and the rest of his friends.

The final stump made him smile and cry at the same time, this one had frogs carved in the bottom, with kurama snuggled at the top of the post, in the middle was engraved a picture of Jiraya and Naruto side to side sharing a Popsicle under a tree, a huge goofy grin on their faces.

Naruto shook his head of the memories and sighed in gleeful remembrance, he the felt a breeze and followed the falling sakura petals that fell in front of the little shrine, he got closer to it and with his hoofs he managed to open the tiny doors, in the middle of the shrine was a beautiful light a perfect golden orange glowing sphere, resonating with a calm and beautiful hum.

Naruto was entranced by the warm glow and mindlessly touched his horn to the orb and everything turned white.

Back in the real world Glyph had gone to the hut as soon as Naruto began meditating, he shuffled through various drawers until he found just what he was looking for a blue ointment and a couple of lollipops, he levitated them back to Naruto and he sat in front of him while eating one of the lollipop.

Suddenly a certain hum sounded as Naruto's horn was covered in a golden orange glow and sparks exploded from the tip of his horn followed by Naruto instantly opening his eyes and screaming in horrible pain "Aaahhh! My Brain!" he yelled encasing his head with his hooves "Why does thinking hurts so much!!!" Naruto yelled writhing in pain like an epileptic mess.

The blue Unicorn shook his head with a smile and took the ointment and proceeded to rub it along the base of Naruto's horn once he had stopped his spasms and just moaned in pain.

Naruto looked up to the elder unicorn and opened his mouth to ask him something but only got a lollipop shoved in his mouth "Suck on that lollipop colt, it will help with the headache" he said and Naruto wasted no effort in doing anything that would help ease the horrible pain.

"That sucks right?, normally using magic for the first time is painless for fillies and colts but unlocking it as a young adult tends to be a pain in the flank" he said to Naruto's moaning.

"You could have said that in the first place you shitty old fart" Naruto cursed painfully while in fetal position much to the snort and giggles of the elder pony.

"By the way" said Glyph in a slightly loud tone of voice that made Naruto's headache nearly split his head in half "I never did get your name..." the elder pony said to Naruto's shock, making Naruto face-palm or face-hoof for the case being making his headache hurt worse.

"Argh Son of a BITCH!!!" he yelled nursing his head while the blue unicorn laughed his flank off at his expense.
