The Phantasmal introduction

"No no no no no" I mutter as I pull on my fire suit. Just as I zip it up, my potion explodes in a ball of fire. FWOOSH it goes, as the flames roast everything within a 30 ft. radius.

While the shockwave hits all the houses in the area, I hear some ponies yell "ALL OVER!" from the neighbor's houses. "Why me?" I ask Celestia as I observe the shattered glass everywhere. I see a royal guard as he canters over to me.

"Sir" He says in a gruff tone. "That will be 600 bits as a fine, and you will replace your neighbor's windows." As he writes the ticket, I snatch it out of his magical grip. "Okay I'll do all that, now you go back to saving Equestria" I say sarcastically while pushing him along.

When he is gone, I start flying over to Twi's house (Tree???) to get some bits. As I walk in, "What do you need, All Over?" Twilight says.

" About a 1000 bits from my storage" I reply. Let me get something straight, I forget easily, so Twilight has all my bits (Which is a fair amount). She gasps, as I saunter over to the back-room. "What was it this time?" She asks pointedly.
"Some fertilizer of mine reacted badly with a flower." I explained
"And....." She continues.

"It blew up in a Fireball" I say flatly, as she gasps again. "Are you ok???" She says frantically, as she looks me over.
"Delightful" I say flatly again, while rummaging through her stuff.

"You need to be more careful" she says in a motherly tone when I finally find my bits. "Qui numquam pericules numquam discit." I say knowingly. "Ok...." She says "Just be careful, there are ponies that care for you".
"Whatever." I say while trotting out of the tree.

I start flying to the justice building, enjoying the cool air in my wings. After a minute or so, I reach the majestic building. I knock lightly with my armored hoof, careful not to scratch it. Everypony knew what happens when you mess up Mayor Mare's door.

The door opens, and I see the Mayor. We walk over to her office. "What do you need All-Over?" She says in that kind, motherly tone. "I'm here to pay a fine." I say as I toss the 600 bits on the desk. "That should cover it, as well as the windows I broke." I comment.

"Now good day to you Mayor." I quip cheerfully as I exit the building.

I return to my workshop, where I delved back into mathmatical equations and philosophical conundrums of the Universe.

Qui Numquam Periculis Numquam Discits- He who never risks, never learns.
Enjoy!!! Anypony that sees something wrong tell me, okay. Feel Free to go Grammar Police.

Off to Canterlot.

This really could be my finest invention, even better than that Tritanium armor for the night guards I think happily while doing the final touch-ups.

"Mac, apply more pressure to the drawstring." I ordered.
"Ok." He said simply. As he grunts in exertion, I tap the magazine ever so slightly. Finally , the arrow slides into the shaft. "VICTORY!!!" I chanted, while Mac silently nodded. "Mac, load it up while I put on my presentation suit. Maybe a hour later, I exit my "wardrobe" (a pile of clothes) in a suit and Fedora. "Let us roll." I say as Mac starts taking the cart to the Ponyville Mail Center. I quickly fly over while Mac lugs the Giant Crossbow to the building.

When we arrive, I pull Derpy over to talk. "Ditzy, I need this to get to Canterlot quickly and safely. Can you do that if I pay extra?"I ask while Mac eyes me, probably annoyed by the delay.
"Yup, I sure can do" she states.
"Ok Bye!!" I say as I burst out the doors flying as fast as possible to the Ponyville train station.

I hop in after paying my fee, and start looking for somewhere to sit. I see Twilight, and walk over with a curious urge on why she was here too. "Hello Twilight." I say as I sit down beside her. "Oh, hi." She says.
"So..... What brings you to the Canterlot ride?" I ask.
"Oh, I'me seeing my BBBFF." She says cheerfully. "Your...... What?" I ask in a plainly curious voice.

"BBBFF, my BigBrotherBestFriendForever duh." Oh, she's seeing her brother, may as well ask who."And this is......." I say, trailing off.

"Shining Armor, Captain of the Royal guard." (Holy. Bucking. Celestia. Her brother is my Soon-To-Be contractor!!!)My mouth just hangs open, and Twilight looks at me funny. I regain my train of thought and tell her "Really? I'm seeing him too!"
"Huh!" She says in a surprised tone.
"He is going to see my new Invention." I explain.
"Oh, well I could follow you to your Introduction and meet up with him there." She suggests cheerily.
"Umm..... Ok......." I say, not telling her it's a military testing thing. I suppose someone to talk to wouldn't hurt. Right???

Famous last words All Over, famous last words........

Any Corrections, please notify me.

The Showing.

The Showing.

After leaving the train, me and Twilight went over to Pony Joes to enjoy some lunch. As they ordered, the waiter asked " Would you like the couples special?" In a (supposedly) knowing voice.
"What??" Me and Twilight say as one.
"We are not a couple" I say
"Yes, he has the most annoying laugh." Twilight adds.
"Seriously, what do you want?" The waiter asks.
"The biggest mug of coffee possible." I request
"A daisy sandwich" Twilight says.
The waiter canters away, leaving Twilight and me in ackward silence.

"So, what is it like being Celestia's Protege?" I ask, breaking the silence.
"It's..... Nice" she says.
NICE!!! You are the star pupil of a goddess, and it's just NICE??? Calm down All-Over, Calm Down, i rationalize.
"What do you learn?" I ask.
"Well, I used to learn spells, mathematics, history, etc. But about 8 months ago, she sent me to Ponyville to learn about friendship. The rest is history, I suppose."

Our orders arrive, and we eat (drink) in silence. As I look to the clock it reads 1:00 PM. Oh. My. Celestia. I grab Twilight, "We gotta get the buck out of here!" I say as we run over to the Canterlot Gardens. I see my crate in the courtyard, and sigh in relief. I pull out one of my numerous knives and pry open the crate. I grab the Giant crossbow, mount it on the tripod, and load the magazine.

"Erm........ All-Over? Shinies over there." She points at Shining Armor. Oh Right. I trot over to him, "So would you like to see my Bow?" I ask.
"No, I would like to know why my sister is with you at a military demonstration!!!" He yells in my face. " Woah woah woah, she tagged along with me since she was coming to see you. Got a problemo??" I reply with a crafty tone.

"Whatever, let's start this." He says. "Shoot the ten pony mannequins." He orders. "Alright" I say, aiming the crossbow. TWAP, hit. This process goes on nine more times. Shining stares at me, slackjawed. I walk over, "And you know what else, I have explosive bolts and mags filled with hundreds of bolts too".
"What do you want for it?" He asks.
"10,000 bits and my name on the plaque, and it's yours".
"Deal....." He says in a wispy tone. Well, that went well.

Author's Note

Oh, the words did nothing huh. Ain't that odd.

Please tell me about any mess ups.

Relaxation Time

All Over was very Confused.

I sold my invention for a reasonable price, got my name in the history books (Again), and learned more about one of my few friends. So why am I unsatisfied?

"I need to wind down." I say to myself. "But how?" I ask my subconscious. "Have a Drink Night." My (Supposed) subconscious tells me. "Ingenious!!" I scream, while running to the door. It bursts open and I start flying to Berry Punch's Shop.

I trot in, and go up to the counter. Berry Punch comes up to the counter and asks me " What will it be this time All Over?"
"The best bottle of Applejack Daniels you have." I order.
"Well I assume by best you mean most expensive and oldest?" Berry Punch asks.
"Indeed" I reply.
"That'll be 50 bits" She tells me.
I toss about 55 bits on the counter, "There, have a tip." I say.
She walks up with the bottle, "Want me to bag it?" She asks.
"No, just put it in this saddlebag." I reply.
"Why?" She curiously asks.
"It's my own design, it can hold the equivalent of a closet and still weigh light." I explain (without telling her that it weighs 400 lbs to anypony other than me).
She puts it away, and tells me "There you go, now don't burn down Ponyville."
"Your request will be duly noted." I say while leaving.

~At the house~

I took the first gulps, and quickly realized that this was amazing. I take another sip, and think this would be a great time for some Potion creating.

I run over to the potion room, grab the ingredients for a sleep potion, and start creating, drinking Applejack Daniels all the while.

~12 hours later~

"What did I do wrong?" I ask myself as I stare at the burning remains of my house (my workshop is fine, it can take explosions 10X this magnitude).

I wake up (with a throbbing pain in my head) and see my house on fire, bits and pieces everywhere. "Accursed Subconscious." I mutter while sizing up the costs of the repairs. About...... 2000 bits!!! "I wonder how Berry Punch predicted this." I say while gaping at my Idiocy.

Author's Note

Boom. Wonder what the next few chapters will be about.

Thanks to my friend Zane, who got me back into writing.

Tell me about and errors!!! And sorry about shortness, just an idea I had.

A Little More

I started rebuilding my house, living in my workshop. The cost was cheap, because of my supply of tools and the little demand for materials. There was only one problem, a purple one to be exact......

~The Library~

"No Twilight, I do not need to move in with you." I answer, slightly aggravated.
"But it must be so uncomfortable and cold." She whines.
"No is No Twilight." I reply in a dominant tone.

"Ok, but one thing."she says.
"What?" I wonder what she........
"Tell me your story."she orders.
"My what?" I say confused.
"I know virtually nothing about you, yet I am your closest friend. I want to know your life's story."She explains.
"I'm kind of uncomfortable with....." I start.
"No buts." She orders.
"So you'll leave me alone if I tell you?" I ask.
"Yes." She says pleased.
"Alright get comfortable, this is going to take a while." I say. She sits down and I begin.

"I was born in Las Pegasus but after my father died in the Third Griffon War when I was 6, we were forced to move to Cloudsdale. I was raised in Cloudsdale, and I hated it. In flight camp I was that guy, the one who was Ok but never amazing. I was a nobody. When I was 13, I left flight camp and went to the Cloudsdale Museum. As I looked at those names, relics, and failures, I realized what I wanted to do. I wanted to change Equestria, to be SOMEONE, I earned my cutie mark that day. I hastened to finish my curriculum. My mother died the day after my graduation, like she only went on without father for me. With nothing left in Cloudsdale, I went to Canterlot to learn more. I spent 8 years of my life in that Archive, learning about everything that was in there. The only pony that could have read more scrolls and books than me was Celestia. Armed with my knowledge and early inventions, I went on a trip around Equis. I won't describe that phase of my life, I'll just summarize it. I've seen uprisings, crime, and sights you couldn't imagine. It wasn't all bad though, I saw the greatest monuments of the world, honed my fighting and surviving skills, and learned many more things. I was about 25 when I arrived here, and it was the most beautiful thing I'd seen in months. A peaceful, small, and nice town. Something told me that this was my final home, my place to fulfill my destiny. I bought a home, built a workshop, and settled in. Now, at 26 I still am here. That's my life, and I hope you enjoyed it." I finish with a gesture of my fore-hooves.

Twilight just sits there, slackjawed and silent. Without another word, I leave the Treehouse and go home to continue my repairs.

Author's Note

There, a little more backstory.

Tell me anything I can fix, and any ideas y'all have.

The Dark Side

~The Everfree Forest~

I stalked around the undergrowth, knowing that one would be close. Damn Manticores, couldn't ever just lie down and die. Nooooo, you have to kill them in at least two ways. I readied my hoof-held crossbow and my wing blades. I glance over the bush, and see a Young male in his prime. Perfect specimen, and not too hard to bring down. THUMP, SMACK my crossbow goes as I shoot the manticore. It roars in pain, looking all over for its attacker. I waited until it's gaze passed me, then charged it. "Aaaahhhh!!!" I bellowed as I ran. I dodge it's claws and stinger, stabbing it in the chest with my wing blades. While it roared again, I caught it in the throat, ending it's call abruptly. I tipped it over, making sure it was dead. While I started to remove the barbed tail, I hear a scream. "Shit." I audibly think as I turn around. I see Twilight, staring at me in shock. As she turns and runs, I start following.

She got about 70 feet before I caught her.
"Let go of me." She said while I held her to stop her from running.
"Why should I?" I ask.
"Because you're a monster!" She screams.
"What did I do?" I ask while she still kicks at me.
"You..... You....... Killed that manticore." She says shakily.
"Twilight, have you ever seen a manticore attack?" I ask firmly.
"No." She says quietly.
"Have you ever seen what a manticore can do to a untrained pony?" I ask louder.
"No." She says quieter.
"Well, I have. I've seen manticore attacks, and I won't ever see one again." I reply .
"What?" She says puzzled.
"I've learned how to kill. I use that skill to defend myself and other ponies. I feel no mercy against merciless creatures. I have been working towards a cure to keep manticores away from towns, but I need manticore specimens to study. I know it's gruesome, ugly work. I've given up on trying to figure it out passively. Whatever you think of me, remember that it is for the greater good." I finish grimly, knowing quite well what she thought of me.

~Weeks later, All Overs workshop~

I wake up in a daze, hearing familiar yet unfamiliar sounds. I hear a earth shattering roar. "No." I say while I run over to the weapons table. Heaving on my armor and grabbing several potions, I gallop out to the street. Frantically turning my head,
I see the manticore. It was easily the largest I had ever seen, standing at 15 feet tall. Gripping my incendiary potion in my teeth, I ran towards the first royal guard I could see.
"Sir, where are the other two guards?" I ask, dreading the answer.
"They are dead, Moon Chaser and Honeycomb tried to spear it but the hide was too thick." he replied grimly.
"Well then, let's handle it." I tell him, hauling him off his hooves.
"Let's not let them die in vain." I continue.

Running towards the Giant, I notice Twilight nearby the monster. I toss the potion at the Manticore as I tackle Twilight, covering her from the inferno. Then it all went black.

Aftermath

~Ponyville Hospital~

Blinding Light was the first thing I saw. After fully (and painfully) opening my eyes, I looked around the room. It was small, with a few armchairs and a painting decorating it. Glancing off to the side, I saw a IV in my foreleg and a heart monitor beside the bed. In the corner there was a large duffle bag, probably filled with my armor, weapons, and clothes. Suddenly a nurse walked in, a notepad in hoof."Ah All Over, you are awake. You gave us quite a scare, nearly dying like that. I am nurse Redheart by the way." She says kindly.

"Yeah, I really didn't really plan to die Mrs. RedHeart." I say lightly.
"Anyways Mr Over, can I call you that? You have severe burns all over your back and wings. You are going to have to stay with us for about........... 3 weeks." She says quickly.
"Three Weeks!" I exclaim, "That's far too long to wait." I continue shocked.
"Whatever you say Mr Over." She said nonchalantly, as if this was a regular occurrence.
"Anyhow, I am just here to inform you that it has been three days since the Attack, and that this service will be free of charge." She continues. Redheart leaves, and I fall asleep again shortly after the exchange.

~The Next Morning~

I had been awake for about an hour, reading the Hospital's limited library. A knock on the door rouses me from my book, and I trot (limp) over to the door. Opening it, I immediately get tackled by a purple blur. Groaning in pain, I pushed the mare off me. Crawling back over to the bed, I say "Hello Twilight and Mac.".
"Are you okay?" She asks concerned.
"Eeyup." I say, mimicking my silent friend. This earns a few chuckles out of Twilight, before she explodes.
"You are so STUPID!" Twilight says loudly. "Throwing a Fire-Potion at a Grease-covered Monster, then covering the only vulnerable pony with your BODY! You could have died, what would I have done then....." Twilight trails off.

"I didn't die though, now did I." I say grinning cocksurely.Turning over to my big red friend, I order "Big Mac, get my healing potion. You remember what it looks like right?"
"Eeyup." He simply says as he grabs it in his teeth. Bringing it over, he lies it on my table.

"Okay, Twilight here is the drill. You and Mac are going to step outside, and start hearing my agonized screaming. About ten seconds later, you will step back in and see me fully restored. Now go." I say knowingly. She and Mac step outside, and I start preparing myself for the pain to come. 3.... 2.... 1.... Gulp Gulp Gulp. "ARRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!" I start screaming, feeling only pure agony and pain. After spasming out in the bed for a little, the pain subsides. Standing up, I flap my wings experimentally. Feeling wind flowing through my feathers, I sigh in relief. "Come on in guys!" I call. Twilight and Mac walk in, and twilight stares at my newly healed body amazed. I canter over to the Duffle bag, pick it up, and go into the bathroom. About 5 minutes later, I exit in my customary armor. I walk out of the room, leaving Twilight and Mac.

After leaving the hospital, I start the walk back to my bunker, house, Thingy. Maybe 20 minutes along the way, I look up and see a gray pegasus hurtling towards me. "Oh Shit." I mutter before getting hit 10 feet across the road. Standing up, I dust off my armor before trotting over to Derpy and picking her up. She blinks several times before grabbing a letter out of her saddlebag and hoofing it over to me. "For you mister." Was all she said before flying off again. I tear open the letter, and start reading the contents.

To, All Over

So, I heard that you got your flank burned up by a manticore? That must be horrible but chances are by the time you read this, you'll have healed yourself. Just wanted to say hi, and to tell you that it's all been going good in the WonderBolts.

Yours truly, Soarin

How kind of my old friend, to send me a letter. I continue walking home, passing several mares (and no stallions) along the way home. Upon entrance to my humble home, I make and feed myself a hay sandwich. After eating it, I dive back into my lab thinking up new inventions.

Author's Note

There, sorry it took so long. I was distracted by GoW 3, editing my friend lazertoad's story, and reading.

Tell me of any mistakes or problems.

What Are Friends For?

~ Two Weeks Later~

All Over is in a rage. The strange feeling is back, Big Macintosh won't tell him his Idea, Twilight is the FOCUS of the problem, and he cannot figure it out himself . Whilst smashing assorted items in his shop, the cogs in All Over's mind start turning. This goes on for a hour, with All Over pacing around his home all the while. Quite suddenly, All Over looks the heavens and Exclaims "That's it!!!". He pulls out his modified typewriter from a pile of inventions and starts typing a letter.

Dear Soarin,

Old pal, I need your help. I've been having a problem as of late, and I believe you can help me with it. I understand that this is sudden, but the situation is dire. Report to my home in Ponyville as soon as possible.

Respectfully, All Over.

The parchment falls to the desk, and All Over sighs. This has to work.

~The Next Day~

There is a series of knocks on the door. All Over realizing who it MUST be, throws a disintegration potion onto the door. As Soarin's hoof was just on the door, and he leaped back in surprise when the door suddenly turned in to dust. Dusting himself off, Soarin screeches "What the hay!?! You could have (he gestures towards the door) done THAT to me!!!"

"I couldn't have hurt you, the potion only destroys what it touches."All Over nonchalantly states.
" And why did you destroy your front door? You could have opened it." Soarin asks agitated.
"I have hundreds of front doors, I had no need to open it."He answered cooly.

"Where did you get hundreds of front doors?" Soarin suspiciously asks.
"After his reformation, I made a deal with discord. I got a magic bag filled with several hundred doors, and he had me light Angel Bunny on fire." All over replies cooly.

"You lit a BUNNY ON FIRE!" Soarin exclaims.
"Hey, I poured water on him immediately. He only got 1st degree burns." All Over replies.
"Why would the god of chaos want a bunny burned?" Soarin asks.
"Meh, he said something about Fluttershy abuse." All Over replies.
Soarin sits up and scratches the back of his head. He says "You know what, I'm gonna end this conversation before it drives me mad.".

"What is so bad about madness? I completely insane and I love it." All Over replies happily.
Soarin just nods his head sadly. He walks inside and joins All Over on the couch.

"So buddy, what do you need? I gave up my one break a month to do this." Soarin begins.
"I am getting this warm, odd feeling around one of my friends and I need guidance on what it is." All Over redundantly says.
"What is the Stallions name?" Soarin asks.
"It's a mare, and why did you assume it was a stallion?" All Over asked confused.
"Oh well, I always assumed....." Soarin trails off.
"You assumed what?" All Over asked again.

"Nothing!!!" Soarin quickly cut in.
"Well, her name is Twilight Sparkle and she is a unicorn." All Over replied, still wondering about the earlier comment.
"Tell me, do you think of Twilight often?" Soarin asks inquisitively.
"Fairly often, she says very memorable things." All Over answers.
"No, do you think of HER?" Soarin asks more forcefully.
"Erm........ Yes, on occasion." All Over awkwardly answers.
"Well then, I have easily come to a conclusion." Soarin states matter-of-factly.

"What!?! Tell me!!" All Over begs.
"You have feelings for Twilight Sparkle. Plain and simple." Soarin says slowly.
All Over's eyes go wide, and he falls face first to the floor. "Soarin?" He says pitifully.
"Yes All Over." Soarin replies curtly.
"You can leave, I'm gonna need awhile to process this." He says. "Thank you, by the way." He adds.
"What are friends for?" Soarin says as he walks out of the building.

Yay, I finally got off my rump and wrote something.

The Beginning of the End

The Beginning of the End

~Golden Oaks Library~

Twilight is a good cook. A amazing cook, even. Of course, I have a very small range of food so...... Anyways, this is a amazing sandwich. "Thanks for the cooking Twilight." I mumble through a full mouth.
"It is the least I could do, after you waterproofed that book for me." She says cheerily with a grin.
"That was foals play Twilight, give me a REAL challenge next time." I say, still chewing.

"Really All Over? Don't you have WORK to do?" Twilight asks.
"Work? What is this 'Work' you speak of? I'm self-employed, so my own hours are one of the perks." I say cheekily.
"Rrrggghhh you....." She says, fake menacingly.

There it was again. That strange.......... Feeling(?) Whenever I have been seeing Twilight. I must pursue and discover this new emotion! Turning back to the plate, I top off my sandwich. I get out of the chair, and immediately throw a smoke bomb on the floor and jump out through the window. Man, she's gonna have to fix that.......... What?!?! I've never felt remorse! I REALLY need to discover this emotion. Flying into the Sky, I quickly get over to my house. Kicking in the door (that is so fun), I gallop over to the psychology section of my workshop. I pick up the data cube (a custom made device that answers personality questions.) and hoof in the symptoms. Here's what it said-Not going to tell you.. If I hadn't built it with a steel exterior, It would have broken when I pelted it across the room. My own device, DENYING ME!!! It is madness, madness I say!!! Flying out of the house again, I head over to Sweet Apple Acres. Singling out Mac from the rest, I fly over to him.

"Mac, I have a problem." I start. After explaining everything, I ask him if he has a answer. He was grinning, and he Says "Eeyup."
"Tell me then." I order
"Eenope." He says stolidly.
"What!!!" I shout again. Flying away in anger, I fly towards nowhere. It's as if everypony just wants to wait and let me figure it out. Maybe I need some time off or something.
