Meet the Heroes (prologue)

We find ourselves outside the golden gates of a mansion. Not just any mansion, but the mansion of Julius "manly-man" McChisledjaw, the most heroic and masculine pony in all of equestria. Now if this were a movie we could pan through the gate and through a window, but it's not so we can't.

We now find ourselves in the Julius' bedroom, our hero himself is lying in bed watching tv while two mares work him over,if you get what I mean. These two mares ,were the two of the most musical in all of equestria, vinyl scratch an Octavia. They are here repaying our hero for him solving a dispute about the best musical genre.

2 hours earlier:

"Classical music is the best" laughed Octavia in that sort of we're having an argument, but your view is so wrong it's laughable, sort of way.

"Wrong, we both know that my wubs are the best" scoffed vinyl scratch.

"No classical is" said Octavia, firmly

"Hahaha no, dub step is" growled vinyl viciously

"Classical"

"Dub step"

"Classical"

"Dub step"

This went on for about an hour, until our hero happened to trot by sexily.

"Ladies, ladies, calm yourselves it's okay a brave and glorious stallion is here to save the day" our hero wisdomed masculinely.

"But" both of the troubled mares complained in unison.

"Just you shush you're mouths" J-man countered youth fully.

"Now what are you two beautiful mares arguing about" he said exactly like Elvis would.

"She said that classical music was better than dub step" vinyl scratch complained accusingly.

"Well SHE said that dub step was better than classical" winged Octavia pettyly.

"Ladies, ladies I don't even know what those are, I listen to smooth jazz and soft rock" boomed our hero wisely.

"You're so right" realised Octavia loudly.

"How could we have been so blind" agreed vinyl.

Back to the present.

Julius (he is a man of many names be warned, any new names that sound slightly douche baggy but full of testosterone and youth are referring to him) was watching TV, to be precise the news,

"Attention Ponyville, that finance department has officially declared the town bankrupt, princess twillight sparkle is holding a meeting tomorrow in her library treehouse castle thing tomorrow at noon" blared the tv informatively.

"Gee wiz, I live in Ponyville" shouted lee (he's called lee cus he's a master of martial arts) youth fully, as he jumped out of bed throwing his twocompanions out of his bed.

Now would be a good time to describe our hero wouldn't it.

Well he's about as tall princess luna, but musclier than Big Mac not buff enough to be unattractive though.

He has a glowing golden carmelly coloured coat, long sandy blonde mane that always flows regardless of weather.

He's an earth pony but he can fly and use magic with his abundance of testosterone and youth.

His cutie mark is a green oroborous, a symbol representing his infinit amounts of skills, this doesn't mean he's perfect though over the course of the story his weaknesses will become more apparent.

He has another cutie mark, this was the first one he got, it was simply the word hope, in shiny gold on his chest.

He got that when he just a kid, his family was poor, as he was princess celestia's bastard son he and his dad were hated by most of equestria. After he was born the princess claimed that his father had forced himself upon her. Where in reality they both loved each other will their hearts, but the princess had to maintain her princess-ness. So when he born she sent them away and labelled them as pariahs. They were so hated they had to leave equestria, they lived with the zebras for a long time.

Until one day his dad, who was an alicorn prince from a far away land and his was silver lining, became very ill. Julius had to venture all the way back to canter lot, he had to speak to his mother. He begged for medicine or at the very least advice on what to do. But the princess refused. He tried every day for a month, but the princess refused to help. The last day he went to the princess he bumped into a lavender unicorn (this takes place four or five years before mlp:fim episode 1twilight is about 15 in the canon of this story and the hero is 17 or 18) she said she was going to see the princess as well. When he got to the throne room to ask his question, the princess refused. But that purple unicorn agreed to help. They made the journey to the land of the zebras together. When they arrived, two months after he had left, his fathers condition had worsened. But our hero didn't give up, throughout his whole life he had never cried about how bleak his life was or how it was fair. He came up to fathers side in time to hear his last words they were "golden, never give up, never regret this part of your life, as it will make you stronger, you never have blamed the princess or anyone for our situation and never do. Get a new name a new life a prove to all of equestria what hope can do" silver lining died glad that he had raised such a brave and hopefully kid. Golden hope moved to Ponyville, changed his name to golden brown and worked his way to the top.

Hope.

Now that you know a little about our brave hero, let's introduce some ponies.

It's now tomorrow and Julius was walking through Ponyville thoughtfully helping any pony who needed it.

After about an hour it was noon and golden had found himself outside princess twillight sparkles treehouse.

There was two guards outside, a unicorn and a Pegasus, upon seeing golden both of guards saluted.

"Gooooood morning General Hope sir" they saluted loudly.

The door opened and princess twillight was standing in the doorway.

"What's all this ruc-" she was cut off.

"Hey there twi, long time no see"

"Golden, hi I was expecting you to come, in fact I was going to go out an-" she was cut off again.

"Shush don't worry, don't be so obsessive" he assured caringly.

They walked into the library.

And they found pinkie pie jumping about excitedly.

"Oh my gosh oh my gosh weeeeeeeeeeeee, yay so excited so happy I've never been more excited, oh except for that one time bu-" golden hope cut here off.

Golden hope became lee. A his hot blooded youthfulness made him ignite with passion.

"PINKIE, YOUR YOUTHFULL SPIRIT AND HOT BLOODED PASSION IS TRULY INSPIRATIONAL" lee then burst into passionate tears, as did pinkie.

After 5 minutes of youthful passion and joy, twilight who had been there the whole time watching told them to settle and they did.

The three of them waked into the next room, and lee upon seeing so many beautiful maidens in one room together became J-Man McChisledjaw again.

"Hey ladies, what are we gonna do about this economy?" Asked J-Man as if the episode was coming to end and preparing for a to be continued page.

Cue dramatic bad ass suspense suspense metal music.

Chapter 1 the plan

YOU GET A FAT RD. YOU GET A LAZY AJ. YOU GET A DEPRESSED PINKIE AND YOU GET A DOMINATRIX FLUTTERSHY sorry I went a little over board there.

"Ladies what's the plan" recapped Maximilian (still golden hope, he has like different personalities that he switches between on something. Actually you know what, this is my story, yeah I can do whatever I like.) .

"Well 'ah was thinkin' thaht we could do like an apple pickin day or somthin" rednecked AJ southerly.

"Yeah, but instead of apples we have a race to find the fastest in all of equestria it'll be so sweet, and we'll even have the prize as getting to hang with me for day that would be so AWESOME" yelled rainbow athletically.

"Hey now ah don want some filthy stallion expecting things from you he shouldn't be expecting, after all that plot is mine" scolded AJ protectively. (Shut up I like rd and AJ together I think it works, and he's I will go into detail, not clopping detail though)

"Um maybe if we......um maybe asked if people...... Could um come to Ponyville I mean if they didn't have anything else to do, and have a fair or something" squeaked Fluttershy bravely but quietly.

"Girls girls calm down now" bossed twilight even though the room was next to silent.

"Fluttershy is tight we need a big carnival or event thing that will make all of equestria want go come to Ponyville, each of us has a different thin we can bring to the table here"

"I could bring balloons and cake and fun, and I'm just SO EXCITED I LOVE PARTIES"

"I could put on fashion shows and sell beautiful couture to ponies"

" I could ask my animal friends if they wanted to maybe do some animal tricks and shows and maybe a petting zoo"

"I could set up sports and racing and get the..... *fangirl sigh* wonder bolts to do a show"

"Ah could ask my overly large and mostly inbred family to make a bunch of food and do some other stuff too"

"I can organize everything with my OCD Austin based organisation skills"

"And I can ask many of my many connection I've accrued over the years to finance and supply mire activities"
