From the snow it came

It was cold. So weary cold lying in the snow, blood running down my face. At first, I thought it was my sweat, but all the red filling my vision and burning my eyes gave away reality. I could still hear them fighting in the distance. The sound of steel ramming against steel was loud and clear in my head. It was actually the only thing clear to me now.
I lied down in the snow trying to think of something, anything at all, that I could focus on to clear my head. My name... what was my name. Frost, My name was Frost Haraldson. I was from the village of Redhill. I was -or at least would have become- a man of the north, I just needed to show my worth in battle now, but as you could guess I didn’t exactly go as planned.

I tried to stand, my legs feeling heavy. I used almost every bit of strength left in me just to pull that stunt. My sword felt like a barn strapped to my hip and the axe in my hand made a soft scraping sound as I pulled it through the snow. My body had stopped moving. Feeling the pain in my leg, I looked down, my right leg was covered in blood, and the arrow was still stuck in my upper leg. I had taken 2 blows to my back from one of those sneaky Swedes, and a blow to the head with a club before I fell to the ground. I looked around realizing I wasn’t alone. A big man came out the shadows, a big sword pointed towards me.

“So, you must be Harald's son... what was it Frost right?” he said in Swedish, with a powerful voice that would have made little kids cry for a week. It was Gunnar the leader of the village my people had invaded.

“No I am Astrid your long lost sister” I mocked him on purpose speaking in bad Swedish.

His eyes narrowed making him look even scarier. As if I wasn’t enough that he was about as tall and broad as a bear. But his chain mail was covered in a blood soaked sheep pelt, didn’t exactly made him look friendly.

He stepped closer raising his sword, ready to strike at any moment. I closed my eyes ready to face the gates of Valhalla any moment.

“Fool, just like your father you never know when to shut your mouth” he said letting the sword drop towards my head.

A sound interrupted my wait. A hollow sound, like when you try to chop down a tree with an ax.
I opened my eyes and saw a man just a few inches taller than me (And for that matter I am not nearly as tall as I should have been.), standing In front of me was a shield that he had used to block Gunnar's last attack in his left hand, and a big handful of... flour in the other. It was Grimnir my village shaman; he had personally taken the responsibility to see that I came back alive. It was quite normal to get a mentor with you on your first raid, but the shaman was a real mystery. He almost never came out of his house just outside the village, but that he wanted to be my mentor on my first raid was just weird.

“Válla dúr fèlla” Grimnir whispered and blew the flour in Gunnar's face. As soon as the flour left his palm it ignited with a furious roar. Gunnar stumbled back a few steps pressing his free hand to his face to dull the pain.

Grimnir turned away from the screaming giant and looked at me. “No you are not ready yet,” he said looking at my wounds. I was dressed in my favorite -not so white - shirt and a big vest made from reindeer pelt. He ripped my shirt open leaving my chest bare. He looked at my mark of the thunder moon that was burned into my skin. Every child in my clan born under a stormy full moon gets that mark; I believe some of my ancestors had the mark before I did. Their names were… Well let's just say that I am the only who's ever had the mark. It is said that Thor the god of thunder blesses those children born under his glorious storms during a full moon. The symbol was pretty simple. A circle symbolizing the moon with a thunderbolt down the middle was simply burned into my chest at the age of 4.

Grimnir put his thumb in his mouth and actually bit of a joint (Great now I'm about to die from either the wounds or when the crazy Swede) the Swede came to his senses, but at least we have time to grab a snack. The blood splashed in both our faces but the shaman was as could as the snow falling around us. He took his now bloody thumb and started painting on my chest. I was so shocked that I didn’t protest.

“You must find your true purpose elsewhere. Find the one that bares the mark of the setting moon, she will know what to do. And by Odin’s hairy balls kid if you screw this up, you will not even be safe behind the walls of Valhalla,” He said with fire in his eyes.

“Now GO!” Grimnir trusted his palm into my chest, knocking out what little air I had left. “Nìdfel Dú vélla Gúren” he screamed, I felt numb in my whole body. It was like I was sucked into my own body, it was like I was torn apart and thrown on the floor for the hounds to take. The pain was like nothing else I have ever tried. The sound of the battle died and replaced with a sound I have never heard before. It was like a hundred snarling wolves, ready to rip out my guts was standing inside my ear.

Then, everything went dark.

_____________________________________________________________________________

Spike sighted, breaking the silence of the surroundings. He was sitting on a rock, near the outskirts of the Everfree Forest. There was nopony in sight. That was good. Spike had been coming an awful lot to this rock lately. Not because it was made of ruby or anything (although he wouldn’t mind that either). He had been coming here to think.

He let out another sight. A little jet of green fire erupted from his mouth, disappearing in a slightly darker cloud of green smoke.

“Damn, it's so boring in Ponyville” he said, lying down on the rock the look at the sky. “Some days it just feels like I´m the only man in this boring town”

That of course wasn’t exactly right. But it was true that the majority of ponies in Ponyville were mares. The little dragon just didn’t have that many male friends. Of cause there were Snips and snails, but those two were not relay the brightest company. Spike was not alone or anything. He was constantly surrounded by twilight and the others, and he enjoyed there company, but it just wasn’t the same.

“HEY SPIKE” spike jumped of the stone, landing on his butt. He looked up and saw a cyan Pegasus with a rainbow colored mane hanging a few meters above him.

“Damn it Rainbow. Can't a dragon get some peace around here anymore” he said rubbing his sore butt.

“Aww come on spike that was just too tempting” said Rainbow Dash still laughing.

Spike sent her an evil glare. Realizing she was too busy laughing to notice it, he stood up.

“Aren’t you supposed to be helping Fluttershy feeding the eagles in the east side?” the purple dragon asked.

“Nah it was way too boring so I told her that I would go get some more food for them” she said with a little smirk.

“Well if you wore looking for excitement you came to the wrong place. Nothing ever happens around these parts of
Ponyvi...” Spike was cut off in the middle of his sentence.

A great roar came from behind Rainbow Dash. She turned around just in time to see the dark scar in the air. It looked a little like princess Luna´s mane, but instead of beautiful like the night sky. It was like looking into a nightmare.

_____________________________________________________________________________

I felt like I was being thrown out of a dream. Peace was replaced with shock and uncertainty of where I was. In the beginning it was like flying through the night at high speed. But a light broke the steady darkness and it was like it pulled me right into its mouth and swallowed me.

The light burned in my eyes. I managed to get a short look at the scenery. The snow was gone, and the dark colors of the gray trees and white snow, was replaced with bright and warm green, brown and blue. And of cause the rainbow with the big rosy eyes... wait a minute?

That was about what I managed to think before colliding with the rainbow. I hit its face first and it felt like the time when my father gave me a head butt after letting the goats run wild. I felt my body hit the ground hard. My eyes shut as I hit the grass. The pain suddenly returned. I felt my back burning and my leg hurting from the now broken arrow still stuck in there. I quickly decided that the grass was quite comfortable.

NO. I have to see if Grimnir is all right. Opening my eyes felt like lifting a whole cow, but in the end I got them opened.

A blurry mass of lavender and green stood by my side. And on the other a cyan mass with a rainbow on top appeared.

“Wow” said the lavender blur with the voice of a young boy. “What... what is this? “

“I don’t know, but thanks for asking. I'm okay by the way. I only just got a... a... whatever this is in the face” said the rainbow in the voice of a girl.

My eyes started to focus. I let out a little moan as my muscles started cramping. I closed my eyes and opened them again, this time in full focus. The purple blur looked like a salamander at the size of a small dog.

The cyan.... rainbow... thing, had turned into a horse. No it was far much too small to be a horse... not to forget the color that is.

“Grimnir you BASTARD” I said. The salamander and the rainbow horse took a step back.

“OH MY CELESTIA IT CAN TALK!” said the rainbow horse.

It talks? That should be my line! But my mouth refused to form the words.

“Forget the talking! Look at all the blood!” said the salamander pointing a claw at the ground around me. I hadn’t felt it before not but my back was soaked in blood and I could feel now that it had reached my hand and was slowly spreading into the grass.

By Odin's hairy balls I was about to die beside a talking rainbow maned horse and her purple salamander friend. This was just my luck.

___________________________________________________________________________

The strange creature, that had fallen from the sky, laid on the ground. Its blood was slowly spreading on the ground. Neither Spike nor Rainbow dash had ever seen that much blood in their lives. They stood stunned for a while. Mostly from the sight of the blood, but also from the outburst it had made before it closed its eyes.

They had to do something and FAST. “Uh …Spike, you get Twilight. She might know what this is. I'll go and bring it to Fluttershy's cottage. She should be able to treat its wounds” said Rainbow Dash in a shaking voice.

Spike looked at her for a few seconds trying to gain control of his body again.

“NOW SPIKE” she yelled.

Spike woke up sprinting towards Ponyville as fast as his feet allowed him.

The cyan pegasus tried grabbing the creature from its front legs. She flapped her wings, quickly realizing how heavy it actually was. She struggled for a while until it finally was having a few phases of air beneath its hind legs, then she flew as fast as she could towards Fluttershy's cottage.
In the name of Celestia, this is like carrying a cow across all of Equestria she thought.

The Awakening

The Awakening

Fluttershy was standing in the kitchen, humming in a low tune. She was just about done making angels food; the stubborn bunny had made her make a big bowl of salad, full of carrots and apples that was enough to feed an entire family but that didn’t seem to mind her when she heard her door being slammed open.

Out of pure shock she dropped the salad and hid under the table.

Who could it be? Who would be so angry that they would simply slam the door open? And even without knocking first! Would they hurt her? Would they hurt her animals? What if she couldn't protect them what if-

“Fluttershy come help me, quick!” a familiar voice said while gasping for air.

“Oh… Rainbow Dash, it's just you” she said crawling out of her hiding place. “I thought you I´m sorry but we don´t need the eagle food anyway. I found some more and-” she stooped in the doorway to her living room.

In the middle of the door hang her friend with something strange in her hoofs. It was tall, about a little higher than princess Celestia, and partly hairless. It had a round face with small closed eyes. It's blond mane sticking to its face, blood slowly dripping from its chin.
It seemed to have fur on its body, but only on the torso. It had a gray coat with white edges, but it seemed like it was not attached to its skin (That on the other hand didn’t seem to matter to the blood clinging to it) like a vest. Underneath the fur was a white lair, the middle was ripen apart, shoving light skin underneath. Its legs were covered in a baggy brown coat. Is that a stick stuck in its leg? Thought the yellow pegasus. Its forelegs were not like the ones of a pony. It reminded her of a bear, but not as big. And it had claws. Or did it? The tip of its hoofs had the same features like spikes claws, but didn’t seem sharp.

“It´s hurt Fluttershy! It needs our help” said Rainbow Dash still panting from the long flight.

The timid pegasus was speechless. Not alone she had never seen a creature like this before, but she had never even imagined that much blood in one place before. She was stunned. What could she do? She was not a doctor! But it had lost so much blood, and it might be too late to go to the hospital? She was powerless she was just...

“FLUTTERSHY SNAP OUT OF IT”

The animal carer took a deep breath. “Put it on the table and let me get the first aid kit”

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Spike ran through Ponyville. His legs hurt but he ignored the nagging pain. Many ponies looked after him as he ran but he didn’t care. This was just too weird. He slammed the door behind him as he entered the library.

“Spike... haven’t I told you that you shouldn’t slam the door? You know it will break some da-” the lavender unicorn was laying on the floor reading yet another book.

“No time Twilight, we need to get to Fluttershy´s cottage NOW,” the baby dragon interrupted

“What are you talking about spike? What happened?”

“You see this big... I mean there was a hole and... this "thing" fell and...” the dragon rambled without knowing where to start.

“Just go to Fluttershy's cottage and you will see for yourself”

The lavender unicorn stood looking at her assistant. He was panting heavily, so he must have been running for quite a while.

“Ok Spike but if it's just another one of you and Pinkies pranks you're gonna sleep on the floor tonight” she said giving him a sharp look. “Just let me put this back in place” the book she was reading was surrounded by a purple aura, and flew back to its place on the shelf.

“Oh, bring some books too. Got anyone about hairless apes? And bring some about healing magic too”

The unicorn looked at spike for a second. “Sure this is not a prank?”

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

“That should do it... for now” Fluttershy stepped away from the table. The fur on the torso had been removable, and so had the -not so white- shirt underneath. It had hidden two long, open wounds across the back of the creature. They were now covered bandages, slowly turning red. They had slid a pillow underneath the head to support it, and prevent more damage. It must have taken a blow to the back of the head with something heavy.

“What the heck is this thing Fluttershy?” asked the rainbow maned pony while looking at the strange creature.

“I really have no idea. It could be some kind of monkey or hairless bear”

“If it is a bear, then "that" is one ugly bear”

The pink maned pegasus was about to say something, but was interrupted by a knock on the door. She walked over and opened, finding her purple unicorn friend and her assistant on the other side.

“Hello Fluttershy Spike told me that you had an inters-WHAT IN CELESTIA'S MANE HAPPENED?” Twilight’s mouth dropped and pointed at the pegasus' blood soaked hooves.
Fluttershy looked down on her hoofs. It was like she returned to reality at that moment. The memory of the all the blood she had been in contact with the last few moments, had been blurred by adrenalin. But now that her pulse had fallen and her heart had stopped racing, it all came back and hit her like a hammer. She fell to the floor with a slight bump.

The gifted unicorn stepped over her friend and saw "Ponyvilles coolest pony" standing next to the bloody table with the creature lying on top.

“WHAT IN THE NAME OF CELESTIA IS THAT?”

“How should I know? It just appeared out of the sky and landed on my head”

“Bu-but... It doesn’t even have wings! How is it supposed to do that? AND WHAT THE HAY IS THAT STICKING OUT OF ITS LEG?” The lavender unicorns volume rising with every question.

“Twilight, do you think that I even know WHAT THE HAY IT IS?!?" Shouted the cyan pegasus. She looked at it for a bit. "But I think we should try and remove it?”

Twilight stepped closer as Rainbow dash turned to the stick in the creature's leg. She grabbed the stick with her mouth and said with a nervous look in her eyes “here we go”

________________________________________________________________________________________________

A sudden pain pulled me out of my dreamless sleep. It was so intense that my body reacted on its own for a few seconds. My eyes flew open. I screamed as a new jolt of pain rushed from my leg to the rest of my body. I sat up and yelled out “SWEET TITS OF FREYJA!” The sudden movement was not such a good idea. I felt the half healed wounds on my back opening again, and the pain was too intense. I lay down again, exhausted and gasping for air my vision started to clear. I was inside a house. The ceiling was made of solid wood instead of hay, but not too high. I turned my head and saw into a big pair of purple eyes. They wore full of fear and curiosity.

“See! I told you it could speak”

“Not now spike! Quick, hand me the book of basic nursing”

My eyes was locked at the purple blur. I couldn’t move my head. I had used what strength I had, and my body was cramping. They stared back at me, afraid to move. I couldn’t make out how long it stayed like that, but a purple light suddenly started shining from somewhere out of my vision. I felt the tension in my body releasing, and the pain stooped. I let out a sigh of relief, and closed my eyes.

“That should at least take the worst pain” The voice was female, and was coming from my right. I opened my eyes slowly. The purple eyes had stepped back and I was now able to see whom they belonged to. Ahh... it was the Rainbow horse and her purple salamander friend. Oh and how nice a purple horse with a horn sticking out of its forehead... wait what? I closed my eyes and opened them again. The image was the same. I let out laugh. This was just too good to be true. Asbjorn had been right those mushrooms really did mess up your brain... but... I didn’t even have any before the battle... then what was this?

“Ehh... hello” said the purple horned horse. “My... My name is Twilight Sparkle...” I started laughing. I couldn’t hold it back. This was a dream I had just figured it out. The colorful horses and salamander was fragments of my imagination. Hah even the pain was a par- wait a minute... my father had told me that you weren't supposed to feel pain in dream´s. I felt another jolt of pain shoot thru my leg. My laugh died. I looked down at the arrow stuck in my leg “Oh Loki why do you hate me so?”

“Ehh... I said my name was Twilight and this is...”

“Look horsy I don’t care who you are, all I care about right now is getting back and beat up Grimnirs hairy ass back under that stone he crawled out from”.

“Whats a Grimnir?” asked the salamander.

“And please don’t talk... any of you. It doesn’t exactly make it easier to convince myself that I ain’t crazy”

The purple one that called itself “Twilight” stepped closer.

“I know you must be scared and all but we are here to help you, and the right term is pony by the way” she said in a comforting voice.

Scared? Me? Well considering everything I couldn’t really say I wasn’t. But I had been told that fear was not something that a warrior should feel. So I hid it. Right now I had to get that arrow out, and I was in no position to pull it out myself.

“All right” I let out a sight “if you want to help me, then pull out that arrow” I leaned my head back on something soft.

“Ok Rainbow Dash here will take care of that, while I prepare a spell to stop the bleeding”.

I opened my eyes again and lifted a brow. Did she just say spell? My thoughts were interrupted by pain. I felt the arrowhead ripping the inside of my leg apart.

“STOP” I yelled. “You have to push it through. PUSH!” the rainbow horse let go of the arrow, and looked at me with lifted brows.

“Are you crazy?” she asked “That will just mess up your leg even more”

“The head of an arrow is made to mess up whatever it hits. Just do what I say” she looked at Twilight that was just as puzzled as her. Then Twilight nodded and Rainbow Dash let out a sight.
I felt the arrow pierce the flesh and eventually break the skin. I groaned as the pain made my body cramp again. I felt the hot blood running down my leg. As soon as the last piece of wood was out, Twilight’s horn started glowing. It felt like my leg was dipped in a lake during summer, warm and wet. But the pain had stopped. I looked up at Twilight and shook my head. Hairy balls of Odin she was a purple, female, pony version of Grimnir. The moment she bites off her hoof I´ll kill her.

_______________________________________________________________________
So here I was. Trapped in a house with eight magical ponies... like anyone was ever gonna believe me back home. But nevertheless there I was. The awkward silence slowly making me more and more nervous. I sad on the the floor while the couch and some stools had been tuned to face me. Just like the ponies sitting on them. Luckily the silence was broken by Luna.

“So as I understand you have a lot of questions and we...”

“a lot of questions? Heck I don’t even know where to start. Or maybe we should start with the part where YOU SEND ME HOME BEFORE I BREAK YOUR WINGS OF AND EAT THEM!” I jumped up and practically spat the last word into her face. The smaller ponies jumped off their seats to hide behind the couch, but the princesses sitting in it was unaffected.

“we cant” Celestia replied in a flat tone that only made me angrier.

“Why.... not?”

“Because the spell that transfers a body to other worlds is one of the most advanced spells known to ponykind”

“so you tell me that the old bastard Grimnir is a better at magic than the royalty of a country full of magical ponies?”

“Not by far” Luna said “Grimnir only got power in his magic, even a unicorn filly have more control than him. But the spell that transported you here only takes power from the casters side. The control comes from the one being transported”

“so you can use magic?” said Rainbow whose head popped up from behind the couch.

Celestia and Luna both let out a little laugh.”no he has no magic power whatsoever. But this have” she pointed a hoof at my chest.

“its just a burn mark. Old scars. They have no power” I said

“you are mistaken human... Mr. Thundermoon” Luna said “You see this mark is a symbol of an Æsir blessing. The residents of Asgard is very found of the residents of Midgard and somtime...”

“so you tell me that this isn’t just an old scar?” I had never really believed in the whole blessed by Thor thing... but I didn’t believe ponies could talk either.

“no it is a type of amplifier. It consumes the magic around you and enhances you body’s natural strength and speed”

“is that why the wounds healed so quick?” asked an orange pony with a strange hat. Her name was Applejack, they had all introduced themselves to me earlier.

“and that’s why my medical spell seemed so hard to maintain. You wore absorbing the magic!” said an eager Twilight.

“But I have never healed so fast before. I am just a normal human!”

“Maybe in Midgard but here in Equestria you are absorbing the magic in the air. You see magic here is much more powerful than where you come from”
“And that is why the mark is so important” said Celestia with a serious look “without that mark you body wouldn’t be able to comprehend the magical flow around it. And in a matter of seconds... explode” silence filled the room at that comment. Wow suddenly I was quite happy to have that scar.

“but you wore talking about the transport... spell... thing” I said to change the subject. My own death wasn’t relay my favorite subject.

“Ohh yer.” said Luna. She seemed as stunned as I from her sisters last statement. “the power comes from the caster, but control must come from the subject. And to gain the necessary control you must be in sync with the world around you”

silence filled the room again. What in the nine worlds was she talking about?

“so he have to become a pony?” the one called pinkie pie or something asked.

“no but lets make this easy” Celestia said with a more welcoming voice than she had used on me “what was it like at the time you wore transported. What was happening around you?”

I took a moment to think “well it was could... and dark. I could hear fighting. And I was about to get killed by a big ugly guy... the usual” better tell the truth about that one, at least if I had any wish of getting home.

“and how wore you feeling?”

“well I was hurt. Angry... and scared “ the last thing had been hard to get out but the sooner I could get an explanation the sooner I could go home.

“see, all those feelings are negative. They are dark and isolated... just like your world” the last statement was a little harsh, but what could I say? She was right.

“and because you are not in emotional sync with this world... we cannot send you home” Luna finished her sister.

“sooo... I have to walk on four leegs and eat carrots all day?” this was at least funny for one of us as Celestia let out a soft giggle and said

“no. you have to find harmony” she said it like it was obvious.

I sad there stunned for a moment. All eyes in the room pointed at me, waiting for my response with eager eyes. I honestly didn’t know what to say. Harmony was a big word for people like me. It is like one of those stories that my mother used to tell me. The ones about great warriors that slay the trolls lurking under the bridge to bring peace to the village. But something told me that this didn’t really involved that many trolls. But then how was I supposed to get home?. I let out a sight, defeated by the riddle and looked up at the now smiling ponies. (smiling ponies? Now I have seen everything).

“and how am I supposed to find that?” I asked

“you will have to find it inside yourself. But you will not be alone in this task” The white mare rose to her feet... hoofs... whatever and looked at the smaller ponies behind her. “and who would be better to help you than the elements of harmony?”

“the what, of what?” I said

Celestia turned to me again and with a smile (a fiendish on of the kind) and said “i will let your new mentors explain that to you in time. In the meantime, we will remain In Canterlot and wait for your reports”. She send a look over her shoulder to the six ponies.

“Of cause Princess, we will do everything in our might” twilight said as she shoot her chest forward with a determent look in her eye. The others stayed silent but had the same look of determination. It reminded me of the look Eric Twistbeard had wen he said he could best a bear in hand to hand combat... but for some reason I hoped this wouldn’t go the same way as him (the cleaning alone was a nightmare).

______________________________________________________________________________________

Another hour passed in the little room. The two princesses went over some minor details with me regarding how to adapt to this new world (and occasionally assuring me that I wasn’t plain crazy), while the other ponies went outside to discuss something else. But at last the princesses rose and Celestia said “we have to get back to Canterlot now Mr. Thundermoon. You being here is going to give us a lot of extra work so we´d better get going”

“yer I guess the almighty horse goods, better get some sleep before the annoying human reeks havoc upon their pony disciples” I joked.

Luna at least seemed to have a sense of humor as she let out a short giggle. Celestia just shook her head and walked out the door. Outside the the smaller ponies was in the middle of a hot topic. They wore apparently arguing about where I was supposed to live.

“THINK ABOUT ALL THE CAKES!” pinkie yelled out with her front hoofs in the air.

“we discussed this already pinkie. Its just to darn dangerous” Applejack shook her head, like she had already said this four times.

“And we don’t even know if he eats cake” said Rainbow

“that’s a silly thing to say silly willy”

“but what if he doesn’t? Didn’t you hear him, he said he was going to eat princess Luna’s wings!” Fluttershy said voice shaking.

“ohh come on Fluttershy. I’m sure he doesn’t eat pony wings. He was just angry and went a little overboard” twilight laid a comforting hoof on Fluttershy´s shoulder.

“shes right. I would never eat her wings” it was obvious that they hadn’t seen me coming, and as I spoke they all jumped a little and turned to me. Fluttershy blushed heavily as she realized I had heard what she had said (wait can ponies blush?).
“there is almost no meat on the wings. See the flank, that’s a whole other thing” I couldn’t resist the urge to give them a fiendish grin as all their faces went pale.

Celestia gave me a push and shoot me another of her 'I will kill you while you sleep' looks. But then I realized. If I was going to live with ponies... was I allowed to eat meat?. I could feel the blood run from my face, and my heart pounding like crazy. A life without meat... just ain’t worth it.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________

Luna and Celestia left there disciples and the Human a few minutes after. They had to give newcomer a scolding for the eating jokes, and making him swear not to actually try it. Luna looked to her side, finding her flying a few meters from her with a serious look on her face. Luna could imagine what was going through her sisters head. A creature from another world meant trouble, but a human from Midgard... it was like throwing an angry manticore right into the middle of a foals birthday party.

“Dont worry sister. I am sure your student and the other elements will do just fine” she said in a comforting tone.

Celestia shook her head “i couldn’t sense much evil in the boy... but bears a lot of scars on his soul, and tat is almost as dangerous”

Luna flew in a little closer and said “i sensed it to, but we cannot cage him in the castle. A human who finds himself trapped will surely pound his way out. And with the two of us that close... his mark would go haywire after a few days”

“i know sister, and I never doubted my student and her friends” she gave Luna a light smile that faded just as fast. “But it is the commotion from the other realms that concern me... mostly the Asgardians will be on my neck because of this”

She was right. The Asgardians was a rowdy loot that was more concerned about power than any other celestial realm. Maybe that’s the consequence of having over a hundred gods of war. And the reason the other celestial realms keeps their distance. Luna wanted to be there for her sister, but in this situation there was little she could do.

“How long do you think it will be before they send him?” Luna asked with a voice that barely hold back the concern.

“They will send him soon. Our farther is certainly doing his best to hold them at bay, after what happened last time... I dont think he would plan on coming here again for another thousand years” Celestias eyes became hard and focused at the mentioning of their farther.

It had been so long since Luna had seen her farther. And the last time she had, they parted on bad terms. Last time she had seen him was wen Grimnir had passed through to their realm, and he was ordered to get him back. Ohh Grimnir. Luna remembered the kind smiles he used to give her. The long nights they used drifting through the clouds. She missed his touch ween he held her head in his arms and said he was happy. The first hundred years after he had gone home, had been so terribly lonely.

It was about time for the sun to go down ween they reached Canterlot castle. They flew through one of the great windows leading into the throne room. The air was colder in here. Luna found I odd since they wore in the middle of the summer season. But then it hit her. She looked to both sides and found Celestia staring at the throne with bitter sadness in her eyes. But her face was one of pure anger... witch could only mean one thing. Luna looked in the same direction and found her suspicion to be true. On front of the throne stood an enormous stallion. His black coat darker than anything Luna had ever seen. Hes eyes was like beacons of blue light in contrast to his coat. His eight legs looked both misplaced and majestic at the same time. He looked at them with no particular emotion and said with a deep and powerful voice “greetings Celestia. Luna. I have been waiting for you”.

Celestia took a step forward and tried to speak in a formal tone, but it was completely overthrown by her anger. “Sleipnir!” the name felt alien. Luna was stunned but managed to slip one word though her lips “Farther?”.

TAHA I finally finished it.

Sorry all of you I got a loot of assignment here the last month before the exam and I tell you I am about to kill something out of pure frustration.
And since I have to take my sailing license (I have no idea what it is called in English) in a few weeks, practicing my “dont run the man overboard doll over” skills. (poor doll)

But here it is and yes I have taken some liberty in the mythology area but dont worry, you haven’t seen the last to that (evil grin) but I hope you enjoy and please leave a comment if there is anything or anyone you want to see in future chapters.

And just for the people who doesn’t know, Sleipnir is Odin’s eight legged horse meant to be able to outrun any other horse. He is also a son of Loki who gave birth to him in the form oh a horse (yes Loki is the mother) to prevent a Jodin from completing the wall around Asgard in time.

And just to be clear... I OWE NOTHING (except my good looks)

Nightly Politics

IMPORTANT!!!!
this chapter has not been edited so please excuse any grammatical and spelling errors you may find thank you ^^

I leaned back. The barn roof was not the most comfortable place, but it brought me closer to the stars watching over me. This had certainly been an exhausting day. First the long trip to the Swedish coast, then the fight with Gunnar that got me sucked into another world full of magical, colorful ponies. Not the best day of my life. I let out a sigh and tried to point out some of the stars. But I couldn’t. Even the sky was alien to me. An unfamiliar sound broke my stream of thoughts and I sat up to look for the source. On the ground stood the little orange pony with the weird hat. After the mess at...what was the name... Fluttershys home she had been the one taking me to her home. I was to live in her barn from now on. I couldn’t exactly complain, most of the interior was stuff I was familiar with, and that at least gave me some feeling of “home”.

“`Y'a still cant sleep huh?” she said in a gentle tone.

“Would you be able to sleep after all that?” I said leaning back again to continue staring at the dark night sky.

“A'hh guess not” she said and I herd some scraping as a ladder was set up against the barn side. She climbed it, and sat down beside me. “But a'hh damn sure know y'a cant keep staring at the sky for all eternity” she said in a smug tone.

I smiled and looked at her “you know... my mother used to tell me that to”. The bottom of my stomach fell out at the mentioning of my mother. I saw her bright smile in my head, her long golden hair and her warm eyes that made me feel all warm an fuzzy. I shook my head and cleared my thoughts.

She must have noticed my reaction cause she moved a little closer and asked “somth'n y'a wanna talk about?”

“No i´m fine” I said in my most convincing voice. It was just not convincing enough.

“Don’t y'a lie to me. I am the element of honesty and a'hh can sniff out a lie from miles away”

Great! I had ended up the one place in this pony land where a little white lie could bring me peace. I let out a sigh and sat up “element or not doesn’t mean I have to tell you every little detail about my life” I said fixing my eyes on her.

Her cheeks turned reed and she looked away into the distance. “A'hh... a'hh didn’t mean to be rude or anything” she said “but a'hh still think I should know something about ma'hh new student” she turned to give me a little apologizing smile and continued “and if y'a cant be honest to y'a friends... then who?”

Friends? Friends? She saw me as a friend? After one single day she saw me as a friend! Either she was the most trusting or the most stupid pers... ehh pon... no wait that ain’t right either, something I had ever met. I let out a light chuckle.

“heh... never thought I would hear those words from a girl with four legs” I gave her a wink and she laughed.

“And a'hh guess I never imagined I would say it to a hairless bear” she said and we both laughed.

We sad there talking for a few more minutes. She told me about her family. Her sister Applebloom, Big Macintosh and her granny Smith. They didn’t know I was here but she planed on telling them in the morning. She told me a little about them and there apple farm. But after talking about the upcoming harvest she suddenly went silent. I looked at her as she shivered lightly. “Anything wrong” I asked more out of curiosity than concern.

“A'hh... A'hhm surely just over think'n things here but... was it true wen y'a said... y'a said y'a would eat Luna’s wings?” she said in a voice that made it sound like a silly thing to ask. But now that I thought about it... I had eaten horse before, and I had no idea how long I would stay here. How long would I be able to go without meat. And wen the time came... would I simply kill one of the ponies? No! They wore more like humans than regular ponies. But still...

I realized I hadn’t ansvered her question and gave her my best smile. “of cause not I... I was just angry at the moment. I don’t eat pony” dam! I lied in the face of the supernatural honest, lie sniffing pony, that at the same time was, the one giving me a place to live. Way to go Frost.

She eyed me for a moment, before her eyes went wide. She stood up and looked into the distance. “I see... then goodnight Mr Thundermoon” she trotted over to the ladder and was soon gone. “You my good sir are an idiot” I said to myself.

_______________________________________________________

“I see you have taken good care of your sister Celestia” the enormous black stallion said. Celestia and Luna didn’t move. Their farther was here, and that only meant one thing. The Asgardians had their eyes on Equestria once again. Celestia felt her insides turn at the sight of him. Celestia had the power to raise the sun at will. She was worshiped like a god by millions of ponies for her divine powers, but in the presence of Sleipnir, she was no more than a fading candle beside a raging bonfire.

“we had our ups and downs” she answered trying not to let the anger building up insider her slip out. Luna on the other hoof did not hesitate. She ran to his side.

“ohh farther we missed you so much!” she said, tears escaping her eyes, as she hugged one of his forelegs. His face never changed. His gaze was set on Celestia, with no emotions to read. Celestia understood Luna’s reaction. Sleipnir had only been to Equestria twice since they started ruling. And both times had been in dire heartbreaking times. Once during the Grimnir incident, and once after Celestia had sent her sister to the moon. And if he was here now... it meant things would get serious soon.

“Young one. Time is not to weep. This is about the mortal send to your realm. If you hand him over we can leave this behind us and go back to our old tasks” he said his voice still booming though the hall. Celestia already knew her answer, and she knew he did to.

“We need the mortal here, and you know that” she said with as much determination as she could gather. Now with the formalities out of the way Sleipnir let out a sigh and put a hoof on Luna’s head.

“I know about your prophecy. But you must see reason Celestia, he is a chosen of the thunder god, if he wasn’t in Joutunheim drinking his brain out, he would already be here ripping the place apart”

Luna steeped away from him and shook her head slightly “we know that farther. But we have no choice. Like last time, this mortal might be the key to save our realm”

“You are a fool if you think that. And you are a fool if you think that I will help you this time. Odin already has his eyes on the boy, and the Asgardian armies are growing restless. That alone is enough excuse for the Allfarther to let lose his warriors” Sleipnir said trying to reason with his daughters.
Celestia met his gaze with anger still growing inside her “He wouldn’t dare that! Not since the gate of Tartaros was moved here! The southern gods will see it as an declaration of war and...”

“And that is what he hopes for” he said.

They all stood in silence for a moment. A full scale war between the celestial realms... it would mean the end of the mortal world. What was Odin thinking? Is he willing to go that far just to prove his strength? Has he gone mad!?

“And I guess you just bowed your head and agreed like the good horse you have always been?” Celestia responded her eyes ablaze. Sleipnir said nothing, but Luna could see the words had their impact. But Celestia was far from done. “Just like you did with mother!”

Sleipnir took a step back and bowed his head nearly reaching their height. “Please Celestia...” his voice reduced to a whisper.

“Or do you agree with him? Do you want the mortals to suffer?”

“Please Celestia I beg you...”

“Is it because of what they meant to her? Just because she loved a mortal more than you?”

“Celly please....” tears was forming in his eyes now.

“And I guess since she loved them so much... she was no better than them”

“SHE GAVE ME NO CHOICE” Sleipnir yelled anger forming the words. Sleipnir had raised to his full height again, and the mere presence of his magical aura made their horns hurt. The hall was shaking and many windows burst from the impact of his voice. But the most frighting was... that he was not even trying.

Sleipnir shook his head, getting his anger under control. Then he looked at them “you rule the most harmonic realm of all, and put your trust in a mortal that haven’t even seen half of his of life. Tell me why you put not only your realm, but entire mortal world in the hands of this lesser creature! All because of some prophecy by a madman? You are truly the ones that have lost your senses?”

But both Luna and Celestia held their ground against his threads. They knew that defiance might turn their realm into a battleground. But at the same time, they knew that the alternative would be a much grimmer fate for their subjects. It was not even up for discussion.

“As the great madman Starswirl once said” they said at the same time. “The time shall come wen another will come. One that will face the horrors of his own world in the place of others. One that will surpass the one before him. And with his legacy banish the nightmare that is chaos. And break the chains that will bind ponykind. But only wen his heart is ready. Because only the heart of one that understand both pain and joy, truly understands harmony.” it had been ages since anyone had uttered the prophesy, and most of the ponies that knew it wore no more. But it was time to bring it forth again. Time to believe that the words was more than just that. Words.

Sleipnir let out a long and deep sigh. “this will be the last time I ask you” and then shifted his voice to be the royal Canterlot voice, better known as the official celestial parley tone. “I ask thou now rulers of the realm known as Equestria. Do thou willingly hand over the mortal, recently misplaced into your domain. If thou do not, I am forced to report to the Alfarther that Equestria is unwilling to reform balance between the worlds. Is understanding of these terms reached, and a peaceful solution eminent?”

“understanding of the terms have reached us. And as rulers of the realm known as Equestria we decline thine offer. And we will await the Alfarthers reply in terms of alternatives” Celestia replied.

“So it shall be done!” and with a deafening roar, Sleipner engulfed himself in shimmering light, and vanished.

Authors note:

So I finally got around finishing this chapter ( yes I am still writing).
It took me some time since I had my exams and most of the summer Holiday I have to spend on festivals and booze. And no I have no idea wen the next chapter will be up, since I still have a million things to do. But it will be out wen I get time.

About this chapter. I finally got the whole Sleipnir thing out! So yes Sleipnir is like a messenger for the Asgardians wen it comes to Equestria (seems natural since his kids are the rulers) and the southern gods mentioned is Zeus and that bunch (in case you didn’t figure that out). Uhh and I threw in a little about Frosts background! So all in all... things will be interesting from here.

DISCLAIMER. I OWE NOTHING NOT EVEN THIS COMPUTER.

And in case anybody cares. I am about to start a Bronie band with a couple of friends. So if you are interested I will surely be posting whatever we make on my blog... just wanted you guys to know.

The Sun And The Moon

Silence filled the room. I had been moved to the couch, and was now sitting face to face with the hor... I mean ponies. “So let me get this straight. You are both talking ponies?” I pointed at the Twilight and Rainbow Dash. They send me a nod in return. “And you are a baby dragon?” I turned to look at the scaly creature known as Spike. Another nod “And I am in some magical land known as Equestria?” all three nodded. I had now been talking with them for about half an hour. I had picked up that I was not in Scandinavia anymore... surprise. That this land was inhabited by ponies, and that they got quite pissed if you called them horses, and that there was more than one type of them. It made no sense at all! The ones called unicorns all possessed magic, the ones called pegasi could fly, and then what I first assumed would be their slaves were called earth ponies possessed no power at all. But apparently they all lived together in harmony... it made NO sense! My head was spinning and I leaned back, quickly regretting as a jolt of pain shoot thru my back. “OUCH” After the arrow had been removed they insisted I needed to rest. But how could I? I was in some kind of magical land inhabited by ponies. I had deserted a fight. Left my friends to die.

“Uh… I think you should take it easy... at least for a while” said the lavender unicorn.

Easy for her to say; she wasn’t the one talking to magical ponies.

“No I have to get back.”

“Not in your condition. I am surprised that you are even conscious”

“SHUT UP! I am not taking orders from a DAMN HORSE!” I yelled out and the room went silent.

I closed my eyes. I was exhausted, hurt and utterly lost. Where was I? How was I supposed to get home? I felt heavy. Tiered, but I had to get answers. I opened my eyes and let out a sight. My head was spinning from all this weird information. There were simply too many things that didn’t make sense. But as my father used to say “if you run out of water, you simply can't just piss on the iron” he was such a wise man.

“Well I guess a little sleep wouldn’t hurt”

I didn’t wait for them to respond, I just laid town on the couch and closed my eyes. Normally I would never even consider this in a stranger's presence, but they wore ponies... what could they possibly do to harm me?

_________________________________________________________________________________
They all looked at the sleeping creature. It looked a lot more peaceful now even with the fact it was still a bit scary.

“Where the hay did y'all find this thing” said Applejack lifting her brows to unnatural heights.

“It came from the sky.” The cyan pegasus explained to Applejack.

After the strange conversation Rainbow Dash flew out to get the rest of their friends. What else was there to do? They had no idea what it was. Just that it talked Equestrian and was quite short tempered.

“It is so hairless. And why is it only wearing cloth on its hind legs?” asked Rarity.

“Forget the cloth look at the cutie mark” pinkie pointed a hoof at the mark on the chest of the creature.

“ I don’t think it's a cutie mark pinkie. It looks like an old wound of some sort” Twilight was now looking thru her fifth book, but still no catch on hairless, talking monkeys. “You got any books about midget bears Fluttershy?”

The yellow pegasus had washed her hoofs and after a little rest she was now standing at the creatures side holding its... claw... thing.

“I don’t think so Twilight, but don’t you think the princess knows something? We should send her a letter and ask” she said not letting her eyes leave the sleeping giant.

Twilight ripped her eyes from the book, and then slammed a hoof in her face. “Fluttershy you are a genius. Spike ready to write?”

She explained that her friends had found a strange creature, and it was badly hurt. That she needed help to identify and heal the creature, and that it was somehow intelligent. This took a few minutes but it only took a few seconds before the response came.

________________________________________________________________________________
Once again I was ripped out of my sleep. A high noise made woke me and I sat up. The only thing I managed to see was the ceiling, before a white light blinded me. It felt like I was falling for a second. Then I hit the ground, instinctively rolling over to stand. I grabbed the knife from my boot in the progress. My vision was still a little blurry, but as it started to clear I realized I was surrounded. A dozen ponies formed a circle around me, all with horns pointed towards me. Seriously what kind of grudge dose the worlds have against me sleeping? I looked around. I was outside, standing near some kind of... house. The unicorns surrounding me were dressed in golden armor and a soft glow came from the tips of their horns. Then I saw two other ponies, if you could call them that standing behind the circle. A white pony that was at the same size of a normal horse, but with both horn and wings. Her long... mane I think it was, was like a rainbow slowly blowing in the wing. The other one was smaller, yet bigger than those surrounding me. She had a dark blue coat and a slightly brighter mane. They both wore some kind of crown.

“Creature of Mudguard!” the white one said with a firm yet kind voice. “Lay down your weapon and surrender!”

The unicorns took a step closer, the glow in their horns glowing a little brighter. A voice cut through the tension of the circle.

“PRINCESS CELESTIA!” Twilight, Rainbow, Spike and some other ponies came running out of the house. “IT IS NOT DANGEROUS”

The white one -Celestia I assume- didn’t call the guards back, but she did sent them a slight nod and the glow in their horn faded away.

“So now I´m an 'it'” I said sending a smirk in their direction.

“No matter what it have told you Twilight, do not trust it! Humans are a deceiving bunch of brutes” she said not taking her eyes from me. “We felt its presence as soon as it entered our realm, but to think it would be cloaked so well from our detection spell, it is not to be taken lightly”

Twilight and the others now stood beside the two big ones. The dark one narrowed its eyes and said with a low but powerful voice “I thought thou said it was hurt?” her voice giving her away as a female

Now that she mentioned it, the pain was gone. I tried feeling my head where the club had hit me, but there was no pain. My body was covered in bandages but there was no pain. Well finally some good news.

“You know I have a name right?” I said.

“And we will be more than willing to hear it once you drop your weapon” Celestia said.

“Well it would be a much more fair fight... sad thing I´m not into that”

“Please” the yellow pony that had came out of the house said with a sweet voice on the edge of crying.

I don’t know why, but somehow her voice calmed me. It reminded me of something. I took another glance at the guards before putting my dagger back in my boot. I should remember to keep a distance to that one.

“Now how about you all put your fancy face pears away, and we talk like reasonable people... pony’s... whatever”.

I exchanged evil glares with the princess for a few seconds, before she gave another nod and in a series of flashes like the one that had woke me up, the guards were gone.

“We are not here to hurt you human. We are here to help you” Celestia continued.

“Yes and the guards were just the disguised guests for my welcoming party”

I heard a little shriek from a pink pony in the back “NOOO! How could you do this Celestia! Already holding the welcoming party, and I wasn’t even invited” seemed like most of us ignored her tough.

The dark one moved forward. “Sir I promise that we wish you no harm. We are just trying to make things right. So if you would let me, I need to see if you are the human we seek” she said in a low tempting voice still approaching me.

I had no idea what she was talking about, but before I could think she was close enough to do what she had planned. A quick slash with her horn ripped the bandages on my chest, leaving it bare...except for. She gasped. She stared at the pale scars on my chest forming my mark of the Thunder moon. Celestia shook her head slowly “That explains why we couldn’t detect him”

I had no idea what she was talking about but before I could ask the one in front of me said something that blew my mind away "did Grimnir send you?” how the heck did she know him!

“Now where do you know that old bastard from?”

“He visited Equestria once. He hath helped us with a few problems. He told us that he would send another human to this world... but we thought...”

“So what? Old Grimnir never told you how handsome I was?” I said with a smirk. Some of the smaller pony laughed. Good, the tension was getting a little too serious for my taste.

“No... we just never thought that it would take nearly two thousand years”

My jaw dropped to the ground. TWO THOUSAND YEARS... that old... I mean weary old bastard.

“The spell used to send you here is quite complicated. It gives a destination but not a given time... Grimnir must have been in a hurry”

“That would explain a little...” it didn’t but I might as well speed up the conversation. “But why did he send me here?”

“He gave you no instructions?” she looked puzzled

“He said...” the memories seemed so far away. But his words had been hard to misunderstand and it is often a good idea to listen to the mad man who eats his own fingers “He said that I was to find my "true purpose" elsewhere... and something about looking for a setting moon”. I said after a short pause.

Now something happened that I think no one could have seen coming. Celestia burst out laughing. Long and cheerful. I was surprised that she wasn’t rolling around on the ground. But I was clearly not the only one noticing this as "strange". Everyone was looking at her, especially the dark one. Her gaze was full of rage, but at the same time she looked kind of embarrassed. She started to calm down and said still gasping for air “Well it's always a good thing that he hasn't forgotten you Luna”. So her name was Luna that was at leas- wait.... what? I looked at the dark pony and saw that her flank had a mark... shaped like a moon. How the heck could a horse help me finding my true purpose! Grimnir... may your beard be tangled in your teeth.

“This is not time for your amusement Celestia... I am sure this human have a lot questions that needs answering”

“You know that human isn’t my name... right?”

“Than what can we call you?” this time Twilight was the one to talk. That was right; I never told them my name. The short conversation I had with her and Rainbow had mostly been me asking the question "Why can't I wake up?" and "What mushrooms did you feed me?" I still wasn’t sure if it was safe yet, and the nab I had taken was a big mistake. I shouldn’t give them my real name... What? You thought Frost was my real name? Well it's not. But it is the name I am mostly used to. So why not use it? And to be honest, it sounded better than my real name.

“I am Frost... Frost Thundermoon”
