Cherish Memoriesby StarShield the BraveChaptersNightmares aren't realFirst EncounterFirst NightThe Next MorningAttack on PonyvilleRemember the Past. A Fight Between BrothersAn Unexpected wish GrantedNightmares aren't realIt was the middle of the night, at least eleven in the night. I was sleeping away in my bed, thinking about many happy thoughts. My mid was focused on sheep, jumping over a fence and sinning song together. That was the plan until someone shook me vigorously on my bed. My eyes squinted as I saw who woke me up from my dream. “X…X are you awake?” A soft voice asked. “Not now…five more minutes,” I said. Then the voice even got louder. “X WAKE UP!” The voice shouted. I was about to pull the cover over until I felt a wetness fall on my face. Who was...? Was it raining and somepony got caught in the rain, or…I yawned and rubbed my eyes from the wet water that fell on my face, and as I opened my eyes I saw my best friend Twilight standing near my bed. “X, are you awake?” She asked me. I sighed and rubbed my head. “I am now Twilight…yawned…what’s the matter?” I asked as I got up and sat up straight on my bed. “…I had that nightmare again,” Twilight said. My eyes shot opens I looked into her eyes and as I looked upon her face, she had eyes of red. “I thought you recovered from that stuff,” I said as I touched her face. She nuzzled her face into my hand and felt my hand. “I…sniff…this time…it…it was about you,” She said. I looked at her and scouted over on my bed. “Sit down and tell me the nightmare you had,” I said. Twilight got up on my bed and sat down. As she wiped her eyes she sighed and spoke up. “It was during the winter seasons…I was with you, just the two of us. I was happy, and my friends were also happy as well. One day, Ponyville was under attacked by beast of terrible destruction. They devoured everything in sight,” She shivered and spoke. “What happened?” I asked again. She stuttered and started to cry again. “You…sniff…I saw you leave us. You left me alone to die in the dark, and left all of us to die. You even said I was dead weight to you and you hated me. You…sob…you said life would be better without me, so you…sob…you smacked me in the face and beat me up so much that you wished I was never existed!” Twilight started to bawl into tears and covered up her face as she reported her terrible nightmare to me. I was shocked and my heart felt sadden at this news. I leaned in and held her closely to my chest and kissed her on the forehead. “Twilight…I swear to God that I would never ever do that! I would never do any of those things you mentioned to me. You are everything to me Twilight, and I never told you this but…I love you,” I said. Twilight looked up and saw my face water up in tears of sadness and joy. “You…sniff…you love…me?” Twilight asked. “Of course I do, who wouldn’t love a fantastic pony like you! You’re smart, brilliant, and even…even…” I stuttered and as I looked into her eyes I felt kind of warm in my heart. …Even what X?” Twilight asked. I blushed as she drew her face closer to mine. As she came closer, I spoke the words. …You’re even more beautiful than any other pony in Equestria,” I said. The next thing I knew, my lips were drawn to hers and we kissed each other slow and long and we held onto each other, promising that we would never let each other go. As she drew away from me I could tell she was happy once more. “Um…X, if it’s alright with you can I sleep with you in your bed?” She asked quietly. I can tell she doesn’t want to go sleep in her own bed. So I smiled and wiped a tear from her eye. “You can Twilight. You’re always welcomed to sleep with me whenever you want,” I said. As I lay back down on my bed, she climb into the bed as well, and poked her cute little head out of the sheets. “…Did you really mean all of those things you said to me X?” She asked. I looked at her and pecked her on the nose. “Of course I did. I swear to you, I will not leave or forsake you. Not now not ever,” I said. As we lay there, silently on the comfortable bed, Twilight spoke up about something. “Um…X, can I ask you something else?” Twilight ask. I turned to her and responded. “What is it?” I asked. She clapped with her hooves and started to stutter in her speech. “Um…whenever you sleep…I hear you talking about…uh…sigh. Who is Rebecca X?” Twilight asked again. I flinched as she mentioned that name. “…Four years ago, my father was a captain of a naval ship. His vessel hit a mine while delivering supplies to the Allied troops in our region, my mother died of giving my birth, and the rest of my family was killed in Nagasaki. My only living family member was my older sister, Rebecca. She and I were the only ones left of our family. But one day, a group of thugs came and robbed our house, my sister was trained in the martial arts, but as they stormed our house, I remained hidden as the gang took down my sister right before my eyes. The last things she said to me before the cops arrived were simple words… ‘don’t live a life in fear, be happy and always…be…strong,” I started to shiver and cry as well due to the tension of the memories of my past. Twilight held me close to her and kissed me on the cheek. “Oh, X…I’m so sorry. To lose all of your family is…I’m sorry,” Twilight said as she held me tight. I felt my heart sink into this warm, cozy feeling and I felt happy again. “Twilight…Whenever I see you, I just don’t want to lose you. You are everything to me and i…i…I love you so much that I’m willing to die for you,” I announced. Twilight smiled and gave me a little kissy lick on my neck. “I love you too X. You are everything to me as well,” She said. As we fell asleep, we held each other closely and tightly on my bed. So if anypony ever walks in and sees me sleeping while holding onto a purple alicorn, you know to leave me alone. Because if I love Twilight, and if Twilight loves me, then I don’t want to depart from her…Twilight is everything to me, and that’s that. END First EncounterAs I marched into the dark woods, not knowing where I would end up, I could tell that I had escape the crowed that came my way. I took a breather and collapse down on a nearby tree. As I checked my arm, the pain was even more excruciating than before. I ripped off a part of my shirt and wrapped it around the wounded area. “There…that should be good, for now at least,” I said. I looked around myself and realized something else as well. It was pitch black in here. I pulled out my flashlight in my jacket pocket and flick it on. But apparently, it must’ve been the humidity damaging the batteries because I could get it to barley work! “CRAP!” I shouted in the forest and seemed to cause every living thing that was hungry to come my way. The next thing I knew, I was being stared down my something in the dark. I saw a pair of eyes right in front of me and I felt the shivers going down my spine. I knew one thing though…Whatever is watching me, it knows I’m weak, and venerable enough to be attacked. Meanwhile on the path way, Twilight and her friends were walking straight down the forest, staying together in these dark woods. “Seems like it was only yesterday we walked through these woods. This is where we first became great friends,” Twilight said. “Yeah, those were great times,” Apple Jack said. As they continued to march, they saw that the tracks were getting deeper. “…These are new tracks. There fresh and look, Twilight walked over to a red puddle of something and examined it. “What in the name of ponyville is that?” Rainbow Dahs asked. Pinkie Pie walked over and did something stupid. “Oh, it looks pretty, let me taste it!” Pinkie then dipped her hoof in it and licked it. “PINKIE PIE!” They all shouted. At first there was nothing, and then something must’ve been wrong because Pinkie Pie’s face turned green and the next thing she knew she threw up in a nearby bush. “That…taste…awful,” Pinkie said with a shiver. Twilight rolled her eyes and used her magic to summon a useful tool. As she made it appear, she scooped the red stuff and examined it. She couldn’t believe her eyes! “Girls…you’re not going to believe this but that stuff is…is…is…BLOOD!” Twilight shouted. The others eyes shot open. “You mean to tell me that that thing out there that we’re following…is bleeding to death?” Apple Jack asked. “Could be possible, the way this…blood…gulp…is laid here, it looks like its loosing blood, and a lot of it,” Twilight said. “Well we must find that poor creature and help him!” Rarity said. “Hold on, haven’t you forgotten something…we’re stuck here in the dark!” Rainbow Dahs shouted. Then in the mist of her voice a large explosion blew not too far from the ponies. “Whoa! What the hay was that?” Apple Jack asked as she held her hat on tighter. “I don’t know, but lest find out!” Twilight alleged. She and the others ran as fast as they can to where the explosions were happening. At the site of the explosions I was dogging and throwing makeshift explosives I had received from Neko as a trade for the pizza, but I was running low on ammunition fast. “Come on you wooden freaks! I can do this all night!” I shouted. I had seen my predators were wood like wolves and I was kind of freaked out a bit. But a wolf is a wolf, and they always like meat! Another one tried to jump on my back, but luckily I dogged the attack and kicked the wolf in the jaw, causing it to break. Good thing I took Romans Fighting arts back at his place. But there were still five more and the other ones I demolish just keep putting themselves back together! Dammit, that is so not fair! They all ganged up on me again, hoping they could sink their fangs into my body. I stood my ground, but I was apparently handicapped and could only fight with one arm. I stood firm as they charged at me again. In a nearby bush, Twilight and her friend as were able to find the culprit they were following and were beyond words at this point! “That…it’s…it can’t…a human in Equestria!?” Twilight stuttered. “This…is…so…AWESOME!” Rainbow Dash squealed. As they continued to watch me from afar, I noticed hem as soon as I kicked a timber wolf down and broke his jaw. “What the-! GAHHH!” I shouted in pain as one of the Timberwolves bit into my right arm, the same arm that was morally wounded from the fall. I fell in pain as another bit into my left leg. I screamed in pain as they gathered around me. “You girls we got to do something! He might be the one we’re following!” Fluttershy said. “What do we do against Timberwolves?” Rainbow Dahs asked AS I looked up, I saw the animals arguing over to save me or not, I gathered up the last of my strength and shouted at them. “ARE YOU GOING TO STAND THERE ALL FUCKING DAY!? GET OVER HERE AND HELP ME!” I shouted. The animals looked at me and were even shocked. “Did he…just…speak?” Rainbow Dash asked. “Whatever he is…I’m not letting him die. Let’s go girls!” Twilight shouted. As she jumps out form the bush, the others followed her in and charge at the wooden animals. The two other ones pinning me down threw me at a tree and ran to help the others. Twilight and her friends fought continuously until the leader of the pack received a blow of magic to the head. The others whimpered and ran away deeper into the woods. My eyes started fade and my vision started to blur too. I felt the blood rushing out of me like a river, a very fast river. “Crap…crap…it hurts…it hurts…it hurts…,” I thought in pain. I looked at my body and was not pleased at what I saw. The animals I shouted at rushed to my side, examining my wounds. “Hey…hey…can you hear me?” A purple figure said to me. My eyes started to fade into black as I continue to lose more blood. “We need to get him out of here, quickly now ya’ll,” I heard another voice said. As my eyes shut down, I fell into an eternal slumber and fainted as I was unaware of my rescuers. My body felt numb, numb as a clod dead figure. “….Am I dead?” I thought to myself. I continue to hear voices around me as well. “…We can’t let the ponyville police find him! They’ll throw him into jail!” “We can’t keep it a secret either Twilight! Somepony is going to find out!” I continue to hear bickering and arguing over my sleep. I felt my muscles going control again, so I guess I could probably open my eyes. I squinted open my eyes as I awoke from my slumber, and as I did the voices silenced. “Shh, he’s waking up!” Another voice said. As my eyes came to, I saw I was lying on a soft bed, my wounds all bandage up, and I was alive again. “What…where am I?” I asked myself. As I looked up I saw that I was surrounded my six colorful animals around the bed I’m lying on. I thought I was in someone’s house with a bunch of animals…until reality hit me. “Oh my…he’s such a handsome darling isn’t he?” A white horned horse said to me. My eyes shot open as I saw and heard those words. “GAHHH!” I jolted up from the bed and then slammed it on the wall behind me. “Are you all right?” The purple one asked. I was totally freaked out right now. “What…what are you? Scratch that part where the fuck am I?” I shouted. “You’re in Equestria, but the place you’re currently in is called ponyville,” A pink horse said. “But…but…I was…I...Gah!” I flinched as I looked at my wounds, they were all bandage up and well. “Careful now…you injured yourself pretty badly,” The purple on said. “You…you helped me?” I asked. “Yeah, you’re welcome mister,” A blue flying horse said to me. I looked at them and realized something; they were horses, but ones with wings and horns. I think I heard of them before. “So who are you? Some kind of talking horses?” I asked. “Hey, that’s ponies to you sir!” The blue on said. “So you’re a pony?” I asked again. “NO! I’m a pegasus, a type of flying pony and those two over there are unicorns!” The blue one said again. “Okay I’m trying to get everything right here, pegasus, unicorns, earth ponies…so do you have names?” I asked. “Of course, my name is Twilight Sparkle, this is Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Apple Jack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie,” Twilight said. “Nice…to…meet you,” I said. “Now it’s our turn. What is your name? We know you’re a human, and we don’t see humans here in Equestria very often,” Twilight asked. “How do you know humans?” I asked. “I’ve read every book in this library about different types of species. Goblins, Draconians, Centaurs, Basilisk, etcetera, etc.,” Twilight said. “Well…if that’s the case, my name is X,” I said. I could tell I was going to be stuck her for a long time and one thing i know that I knew for sure is this…I got my wish. First NightI guess I never got the whole concept of ‘be careful what you wish for,’ thing, because the next thing I knew, I was sitting on a bed with six talking ponies right now. I took in some deep breaths as I tried to sum up of what had happened to me. “Okay. Let me sum up on what is happening here. I’m in a place called ponyville, I’m surrounded by talking ponies, and I’m all healed up because you,” I stated it all up. “Yes that’s right…so I think a thank you is needed right now,” Twilight said. “Well…No need to be harsh about it,” I said as I rubbed my right arm, still not believing that I was healed that quickly. “Amazing huh? My magic healed you up, although you may need to rest because it was only enough to heal the wound, but not the bleeding” Twilight said. My eyes shot wide open. Did you just say…magic?” I asked. “Yeah, don’t you have magic in your world?” Twilight asked. “Yeah…we do. But…wait, I’m confused! How did I get here?” I shouted. “That’s what we wanted to know. How did you get here, and why were you half dead when we saw you?” Rainbow Dash asked. “Well…as far as I know, I wished on a star,” I said. Twilights eyes blew up in flares. “…You…wished…on…a…star!?” Twilight asked apprehensively. “Yeah, I wished for a happy life. A life of peace and…nothing,” I said as I flexed my hands. “You…made…a…wish!?” Twilight stammered. “What’s it to you?” I asked. She looked at me and I could tell that she was concerned about something that had to do with the star I said. “What is it?” I asked. “Oh…it’s…nothing!” Twilight said. “So what’s your story…?” I asked “What story?” Apple Jack asked. “Why did you save me? Don’t I look like a freak to you?” I asked. “Well you maybe a little…weird, but you were the one who called out for help,” Twilight said. I remembered that I did call for help and I needed it real badly. “Well, thank you for your hospitality, but I need to be going,” I said. I removed the covers and laid my feet on the floor. The ponies protested against my act. “No you can’t! You need to-!” Twilight was interrupted by the way I stood on my feet, even though my left leg was hurt badly. “But…how…your leg…it was…,” Twilight was confounded as I looked at my bandages and removed them all off. As I removed the wrappings on my body, the scars and wounds on me had healed automatically and I was brand new. “But how is that possible! We saw you were morally wounded! How the heck did you heal yourself?” Rainbow Dahs asked. I looked at my hands and saw that I had recovered fully well with them as well. “There’s a lot of stuff you may not know about me. Now if you excuse me…I have to-GAH!” I fell on the ground in pain for some reason. As I looked at my legs, they were still asleep form the healing process that I had to endure. “See, you need to rest!” Twilight shouted. I placed my hands on the floor and forced myself to get up off of the ground. “I’m…okay…grunt…just…need…huff…to…get…up…GAH!” I strained again and fell on the floor as my left hand slipped. “Get on the bed now! Here let me help you,” Twilight said. I sighed and decided to listen to Twilight and her friends for once. After all they did save my life; I need to listen to the wished of my savers. “…Okay, I’ll get back in the bed,” I said. I lifted up my hand and grabbed onto the bed, using it to help me balance up straight and I plopped my rear back on and lay down. At least I got a soft bed to rest in, uncles beds felt like bricks. I’m surprised that dude is still alive. “There you go…If you need anything at all, just call for us. We’ll be available, right girls?” Twilight asked. As she turned around, the whole room was empty, leaving me with the purple unicorn named Twilight. “Well, that’s some way to greet a guest,” I said. Twilight turned around chuckling nervously and sighed. “Well, I’ll be here if you need anything,” She stated. I pulled the covers back over me and took in a couple of breaths. “I think I’ll be alright,” I said. Twilight smiled and left the bedroom. Leaving me alone, I was able to calm myself down and catch a few moments to think about my situation. “…I wonder who the hell sent me here. If it was uncle I’m going to punch that son of a-!” I was interrupted by a shimmer of light, flashing in front of the bed. I got up and stared at the light as it flew around the room, as if it was happy to see me. “Who the hell are you?”1 I asked. The light descended on the floor and soon flash happened in the room, causing me to cover my eyes. As I removed my arm from my eyes, I saw a tall figure, a man, dressed in white and standing right in the middle of the room. “I see you made it in…well, I wouldn’t say in one piece,” The man said as he looked at my body. “YOU!? This is your entire fault! Why did you send me here?” I asked. “I wanted to give you your wish, but I also wanted to test you as well,” The man said. “Test me? Why?” I asked again. “You lived a life of hell, but thanks to that wish of yours you summoned me and now I’m testing you,” He said. I studied the figure a bit and this man looked weird. He was dressed in white, but he had blond hair, modern day, spikey, had a bit of facial hair on his chin and face, and looked really beautiful. It took me a short time to realize who I was talking to! “YOU CAN’T BE! YOU’RE-!” The man laughs and smiles at me in amusement. “That is right X…I am Gabriel the archangel. I came to you after you wish and prayed for a better life. So I’m giving it to you,” He said. I stammered and fell out of my bed in shock. Gabriel laughs again and walked up to me giving me a hand. “But…shouldn’t you be…I thought…! HOW!?” I shouted. “I have my ways…as long they’re all right with my King I serve,” Gabriel said as he pulled me back up. “Why did you send me here? Of all places, why couldn’t you send me to heaven?” I asked. “Well…I would’ve but Michael said we needed to test you in order to see if you’re fit to enter the Kingdom of God,” He said. ‘Test me? Test me for what?” I asked as he helped me back on the bed. “You have a choice here X…You can live a life of peace with these, interesting animals, and become the bright, young, happy man I know you can be…or, you can go back to that hell hold in Tokyo, and live a life of death. Either way, it’s your choice in the end,” Gabriel said and folded his hands together. I sat up on the bed, thinking about the life I could have here. Maybe it couldn’t be that bad. “How long is the test?” I asked. “Oh, not long…after you thank Twilight and say your answer, then you pass,” Gabriel said. “And if I fail?” I asked in curiosity. “Sigh…then I’ll have no choice but the let Satan come and take you away,” He said. I flinched again and smacked my head back on the bunk of the bed. Gabriel smiled. “Gezz…sigh…I’ll take the test, on one condition!” I said. “And what would that be?” Gabriel; asked. “…If I pass, I want to see Rebecca. One last time,” I said. Gabriel looked at my eyes and saw determination in them. He smiled and held out his hand. “…Agreed,” He said. I reached out my hand and shook hands with one of the most famous angels in the Bible. “I think you should go. I don’t want Twilight and her friends to be even more surprised if they saw another human here,” I said. Gabriel laughs again! This guy was really getting on my nerves. “Sigh…I like you X! I’m sure you’ll pass, although Michael is uncertain. Have a good day X!” Gabriel said and flew off back into the sky, only to disappear as he entered the stars. I looked outside and saw the stars. I was amazed this place had stars out! Finally I can get some serious star gazing done, right after i got some sleep! I lay back in my bed as night was almost up. I pulled the covers back over me and fell asleep, thinking about Gabriel’s dumb test that I had accepted. The Next MorningI awoke the next morning and felt a bit better after I rested up. I felt a stronger power in my muscles and I knew that was part of the healing thing. I got up, rubbed my eyes and scratch my head. I felt a little uncomfortable after sleeping on such a short bed. “Oh what a night, I could barely sleep after pulling my arm out of the corner of the bed,” I said. I scratch my arms and cracked my knuckles. Feeling my strength coming back to me, I felt great. Twilight was still sleeping on her bed and I guessed I could go for a walk. I got out of bed and walked my way downstairs. I was surprised that this Twilight character read so many books. I studied the shelf and saw many different types of books. Astronomy in Equestria, The study of Ponynology, History 101 of Equestria…This pony loved to read! I continued to look through the shelf and I happened to find a book that caught my eye. “The History of Equestria and all of its stories,” I sat down on a nearby couch and opened up the book. As I flipped and read some of the pages of this story, my eyes were like in a trance or something. I never heard of a place this peaceful…well sometimes peaceful. But I was in awe of the history of this place. I was so into the book that I didn’t even hear the sounds of a hoof beat right behind me, then a voice. “Oh, you’re awake?” Twilight asked. I flinched out of the chair and fell down on my face. Twilight tried her best not to laugh. “I’m…so…sorry…Hahahahah!” Twilights laughing was uncontrollable. I got up and picked back up the book that I dropped. “You really got me,” I said as I placed the book up on the shelf. “Are you sure you should be walking? I mean, you were hurt pretty bad,” Twilight alleged. “No worries, like I said, I can regenerate myself up,” I said. Twilight continued to look at me with a perplexed look. “What do you mean by regeneration?” Twilight asked. I turned to her and she looked like she was concerned, but I took a deep breath in and blew out. “It’s nothing…I’m going out,” I said. She came back to reality and was following me still. “Oh, well, I’ll accompany you then…My name is Twilight Sparkle like I said, what’s yours again?” She asked. I turned to her and looked at her eyes. “…The name is X, and that’s all you need to know,” I said. She smiled and walked along side me. “Well, we better get going,” Twilight said. I sighed and removed the bandages off of my body. I thought about last night and what about Gabriel said to me. If I don’t pass this test, I won’t be able to see Rebecca again. But saying thank you isn’t part of me…I don’t even know if I can say it. “Hey…Twilight,” I said. She turned to me. “Yes, X?” She asked. I walked up to her, knelt down to her level. “I…I…” I stammered. She looked at me confused. “What is it X? Do you have a temperature, or are you sick?” She asked. I decide to suck it in and wait a minute. I moved my hand and opened the door. “Come on…Let’s go,” I said. She had a confounded look on her face and I can’t blame her for having one. I mean if I was to pass this test Gabriel gave me, I should find a way to pass it. “Oh, X. I need to go somewhere real quick, I’ll catch up to you later,” Twilight said and ran off. I took a deep breath in and out. I looked at my hand and clenched it one more time. “I hope I still have them,” I said silently to myself. I decided to walk down the street of the place and I had a lot of animals looking at me with strange complexions, some even ran away from me. It wasn’t long before I ran into a couple of ponies balling ball. As one would kick it, the other would try to catch it. As I studied the way the two were playing, I remembered how I used to play like that with Rebecca. The other pony kicked the ball so high that it got stuck in the tree next to me and the two were disappointed. They ran to where I was at and stopped at least ten meters away from me. I can tell they were afraid, so I decided to help them out a bit. I climb up on the tree, one limb at a time until I came to the area where the ball was at. I reached over and grabbed it with my left hand, while my other hand was holding onto the branch, but then the next thing I remember is hearing the branch snap, and before I knew it, I was on the ground with my rib cages sticking out…LITERALLY! “You okay there sir?” The two asked me. I opened my eyes and saw them standing next to me. “Yeah, here’s your ball,” I said. They took it and continued to play. “Thank you mister whatever you are!” The other one shouted and ran off to be with his buddy. As I picked myself off the ground, I heard a familiar voice next to me. “Well, that’s one way to retrieve a ball for somepony,” the voice said. I turned around and saw Gabriel standing in a bright suit and tie. “What are you doing here?” I asked. I positioned my self-sitting down and fixed up my body. “You still haven’t thanked Twilight,” He said. I lifted up my shirt and saw that my ribs had come out of my sides. “Well…if you…grunt…hadn’t…snap…said thank you…crack to some random animal that talks and saved your life…pop…you would be speechless as well,” I said as I rearranged my broken ribs back into place and shoved them down back in my body. “My, my…You really are a site to behold,” Gabriel said as he offered his hand. I rejected it and picked myself up. “Yes I gathered that,” I alleged. I soon realized he was here again, but for what purpose. “Why are you here?” I asked. Gabriel sighed and looked at me. “Well, I need a favor of you X,” Gabriel said. “What kind of favor?” I questioned with a raised eyebrow. “Apparently I was supposed to escort a demon I had captured in the human world, but somehow, he escaped me and hid in this world,” The archangel said. “God’s most trusted angel…lost a demon he captured. Huh, guess heaven is lacking proper guardians,” I said. “Ha, ha…Anyways this bloke is a high level demon. I keep my eyes out for him,” He said to my face up close. “How do I even find him? It’s not like I have a watch that detects the spiritual present of a demon,” I said. Gabriel smiled and held out his hand. “Actually, you do. Here, this is only for archangel guardians, but I guess I can make an exception for you,” Gabriel said. I retrieved the watch and studied it. “It’s a…a…piece of crap,” I said. “How dare you! That’s the famous hand work heaven can bestow upon you,” Gabriel yelled. “How do I know if this demon is near?” I asked him. “The watch will vibrate on your wrist. If it starts to vibrate slowly, it means the demon is far, but coming, however if it starts to vibrate like mad, it means that he’s very, very close by and that X my boy, is when you need to be extra careful,” Gabriel said. I studied the thing and clenched it in my fist. “Alright, I’ll do it,” I said. “That’s the spirit!” He announced. I soon realized something and asked him a question. “Hey, don’t these ponies see you?’ I asked. He laughs and patted my shoulder. “No, you see, I’m a spirit. No one can see us unless we want them to,” Gabriel said. “Really, because I have about half of the village seeing you and I talking,” I said. He flinched and when we both turned our heads left and right, ponies all over the place were gathered at the tree. “Oh, well, I’ll take care of this. Anyways good luck and be careful too. He’s a nasty one,” Gabriel said. “Hold on, one more thing…If you have this, and it can detect the demon you’re hunting, why can’t you find him with it?” I asked again. He was silent again and started to sweat. “I…uh…you see…uh…BYE!” And in a flash and a bang he disappeared and caused all of the ponies including me to go blind for a bit. As the flash lifted, many of the ponies were wondering why they were at the tree. I took this as my opportunity to make a break for it. As I examined the trinket that Gabriel gave me, I wondered if this was my chance to also see Rebecca again. Suddenly I heard a voice calling my name. “X! There you are where have you been?” Twilight asked me. I placed the watch on my wrist and hid it in my shirt sleeve. “Oh, you know. Just walking around,” I responded. Twilight formed a smile. “Come with me I want to show you something,” She said. I followed her through town, wondering where she was taking me. I could only assume that it was for a good reason. *** *** *** *** *** [In Heaven, the New Jerusalem] “You’ve gone soft on the boy Gabriel,” Michael stated. “He’s still young. But it worries me that we lost the monster this fast,” He said. Michael laughs as he moved a knight chess piece to capture a pawn. “Well, it shows that you’re slacking off your work,” Michael said. Gabriel then moved his queen to capture a rook. “I may be slacking off…But this is a perfect opportunity to show X that he’s not alone,” Gabriel said. Michael moved his castle to a square and check Gabriel’s king. “Check…But do you think it’s necessary?” Michael asked. “Well see,” Gabriel said as he moved his king elsewhere. “I think that won’t be enough…Check mate!” Michael said as he slammed his knight and pinned Gabriel’s king in place. Gabriel looked at his side and groaned. “Man, I lost to you again this week!” Gabriel exclaimed. Michael laughs and patted his old friend. “If you did most of your time watching man below having this much fun on this game, you would be a professional too,” Michael said. Suddenly an angel fell in the room and saluted to the two. “Sir’s…!” The angel shouted. “What is it?” Gabriel asked. “The demon is on the move. We tracked him to the place where X has been located. And to make matters worse, it took form of a titan,” The angel announced. Gabriel and Michael were shocked. “This is dark news…no demon we have vanquished or gotten rid of has ever took form of a titan before,” Michael said. Gabriel sighed and got up from his seat. “Angle, tell the forces to stand down,” Gabriel ordered. “Uh…sir?” The angel asked and Gabriel repeated his order. “I said, tell the forces to stand down,” Gabriel said again. The angel saluted but was confused as he walked off. “What do you think you’re doing?” Michael asked. “…Putting my faithful friend to the test of course, if he succeeds or if he losses,” Gabriel said. Michael sighed and got up from his seat too. He then walked over to his friend and looked at him in the eye. “What if he fails and you have failed as well?” Michael asked. “…Then I’ll take full responsibility for my sins,” Gabriel stated. As he flew off into the distance he left Michael alone in the room with their finished chess board still up. Michael walked over and decided to clean it up. He then examined the pawns position and saw that if he would’ve moved is jack over to the left side of the board he would’ve gotten checkmate! Michael looked at the pawn and groaned. “Gabriel, you better know what you’re doing,” Michael said. *** *** *** [Back at Equestria in Ponyville] “Why did you bring me here?” I asked her. She drew a wide smile and looked at me. “This grove was the first time me and my new friends hung out together,” She said. I studied her and for a purple pony, she was very pretty. Twilight then turned to me with a beaming look on her face. She even had this slight red blush on her face as she looked at me. “What is it Twilight?” I asked. I could tell her eyes snapped back to reality. “Oh…I…uh…nothing X,” she said. I wondered what she was thinking about. I approached her. I step down to her level and looked her in the eye. “What is it X?” She asked. I looked at her and said the words. “…Thank you Twilight,” I said. She smiled and gave me a hug. My eyes shot open as soon as she held me. I had forgotten what it felt like to be held like this. “You’re welcome X. Oh; by the way, I have a surprise for you. Come on!” She yelled and ran off. I stood there, speechless. No one has ever saved me, or hugged me since…I started to feel an uneasy feeling in my heart. “…Twilight…” I said. Suddenly I felt a stinging jolt on my wrist. I jolted up and looked at the watch that Gabriel had given me. I looked at it and it started to vibrate like mad. I remembered what Gabriel said, if it started to vibrate like this, then that means that the demon was near, and it’s close. I keep my eyes peeled out for this demon and hid the watch in my sleeve again. I looked up and realized Twilight was ahead of me. I picked up my feet and started to run to where she was leading me, little did I know, that the demon I was about to face wasn’t only nasty, but one that shook many into fear…except me. Attack on PonyvilleI tried my best to catch up with Twilight, but I guess I haven’t been doing track so much that I literally couldn’t keep up with her. Soon, I saw her purple mane flying in the wind and I knew that was her. I ran up a little faster and came to her side, panting like mad. “Hey...*pant*…You’re…*pant*…pretty fast,” I stated. “It takes some time to run like this. Come on, this is the place,” She stated. I looked up and saw what looked like a house that was made of…candy? Why do I have the feeling that I heard this story before in a book? As I entered in the house, I was shocked by what I saw inside. “SUPRISE!!!!” Everypony shouted. I saw that this place was decorated with party strings, balloons, party hats, and food. I was lost with words at this point. “What…what is this?” I asked. It’s a surprise party for you X! Pinkie planned it while you were sleeping,” Twilight said. The pink pony then jump up and down in front of me all energetic like. “DoyoulikethispartyIplaneveryponyapartyandsometimesIevengetgiftsfortheponiesithrowpartiesforbutyouareoneluckyfellowtohaveonebelikethis,” She just went on and on and on. Then she was interrupted by one with a cowgirl hat. “I think that’s enough Pinkie Pie. Hey there fella, remember us?” The pony with the hat asked. “Yeah, you helped me in the forest,” I said. “That’s right, do you know our names?” Twilight asked. I closed my eyes and tried to remember what their names were. “Uh…let’s see. You’re Twilight, that’s Pinkie Pie, Applejack…Rarity was it?” I asked and the white pony nodded. “Uh, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy, right?” I stated. They all cheered in joy. “Wow, you know all of our names like that!” Rainbow Dash said as she patted my back. “So X…what do you think?” Twilight asked me. I was totally lost right now. They even threw me a party. I wanted to cry, but I had removed my tear sacs from my eyes so that was physically impossible. “…Thank you. It’s pretty…pretty great,” I stated. They all jump up in joy and continued to have the party. I was happy that they all did this, but the watch on my wrist wouldn’t stop vibrating! I wanted to have fun, I really do, but I had a job to take care of first. I got and exit out of the building, Twilight noticed me leaving and ran out to catch me. “X, where are you going? Don’t you like the party?” She asked. I sighed. “I do, it’s just that…” I didn’t want to hurt her feelings; I also don’t want to tell her about the deal I made. Then it’ll be like I used her to get what I want. “Listen X…I may don‘t know your life or your story, but you should be happy! I mean, look, all these ponies are taking a liking to you. You should be grateful,” Twilight said. I looked around and saw that they did like me. Suddenly the watch began to beep and go haywire like mad! I took a close look at it and it started to say something. [WARNING…WARNING… demon approaching.] [Class A: 15 feet meter] [Location: thirty degrees latitude, twenty degrees longitude.] It stated. I did the calculations and suddenly knew where that was. “TWILIGHT, START RUNNI NG NOW!” I shouted and grabbed her hoof. As I ran with her a ray of lighting formed in the sky and dark clouds began to take an arrangement around the village. The others saw us running towards them and they had confused looks on their faces. I pulled Twilight and shoved her inside the store. “X…what’s going on? What’s wrong?” Twilight stated to ask in fear. I looked up at the sky and wondered if this was the demon that Gabriel told me about. “Listen, Twilight, you need to stay here and remain hidden. Do not come out,” I said. I then faced towards the clouds and ran back to the position where the ray of lightening will crash. I looked at the ray and prepared for what was to come. But then, as the lightning struck down on the ground it didn’t just show any demon…it was a…a…TITAN!? The titan then roared so loud it felt like my ear drums would’ve popped. I looked up and studied the tall giant. This was the demon Gabriel was trying to get? What the hell? I couldn’t think any faster because the next thing I knew is that it saw me and its hand trying to grab me. I jump out of the way and ran behind him. The titan looked confused and looked around. I took a wooden board and slammed it on its leg. However I wasn’t very bright and the next thing that happened, I received a kick from its foot. I jump and blocked the attack, but was also hit at the same time and was flown half way across the village and crashed into a nearby fountain. Many of the ponies began to panic and tremble as they saw the colossal ting destroying everything in its path. From the store, Twilight and her friends saw the colossal figure. “What in the name of Celestia is that!?” Rainbow shouted. “It’s…HUGE! I never saw a human being so big!” Rarity exclaimed. Twilight’s eyes shot out in fear. “That’s not a human girl’s, that’s a titan!” Twilight announced. “What’s a Titan?” Fluttershy trembled and asked. “In Greek pony mythology, the Titans were a primeval race of powerful deities, they’re only thing on their mind is either to eat, or destroy everything in their path. I only thought they were a myth but, there’s one right there,” Twilight said. “Hey, what’s X doing?” Pinkie asked as she pointed. Twilight looked out from the window and she saw that I was fighting the thing solo. “What the…X!?” Twilight shouted, but I couldn’t even hear her over the sound of a giant thing crushing and stomping everything in its path. I received major injures, but luckily my old wounds have healed in time for me to doge each attack. Every time the titan would try to hit me, I would doge it and use any of the sharp objects, knife, broken glass, broken wooden spikes, all the wrecked stuff it left behind for me to finish the job, but the titan sees me coming and blocks my attack like nothing. “Gah…crap, how can this thing beat me?” I asked myself. The titan came in for another strike at me, but I was able to doge it on time to miss the attack. “What’s X doing? He’s no match for that colossal thing!” Twilight said. “He needs help,” Apple Jack stated. “Yeah, no kidding Apple Jack. But how are we going to bring down that thing?” Rainbow Dash asked. “Well, you can strike at its blind spot on the back of the neck,” Pinkie said. The others looked at her. “What spot?” Rarity asked. “Well duh, you see X’s neck. Well the titans got one too, but that is where it’s weak point is, right at the base of the collar. If you can destroy that point of the neck area, you’ll be fine,” Pinkie said. “How long have you known that?” Twilight asked “For some time,” Pinkie said. Twilight was too focused on me to even be mad at her. She saw how defenseless I was. She knew that she couldn’t just stand there and do nothing. She then got up and ran to my side to assist me. “Twilight, wait!” But it was too late; she was already half way from the store. I saw her coming from afar as I dogged another blow from the titan. “Twilight, what are you doing?” I shouted and dogged this attack again. Twilight jump and shot a ray of magic at the titans neck and caused the thing to scream in pain. I was surprised at what she did, but then the next thing I knew I was trampled on by the purple unicorn. “Ugh…Twilight, how did you do that?” I asked her as I got up and held her. “X, listen to me. The weak point of the titan is on his neck area, about a square inch down from its head. If we can land a strike on that, we might be able to bring it down,” Twilight stated. I smiled at her and stood up. “Well then let’s do this-GAH!” I grunted as I fell on my side due to the new received wounds I got. “You’re hurt badly X…rest here, well handle this,” Twilight said as she hid me behind a building. I lay down on the floor and grabbed her shoulder. “No…I…I have to defeat it. You get everypony out of here. I’ll deal with it,” I said and got up once more. “X, this is no time to be fooling around!’ She said. “You’re right…it’s not. Stand back, this might get ugly!” I shouted. This time I closed my eyes and I threw my arms apart, causing them to be transformed into blades. I smiled as I still had my mutant like powers still in me. Twilight was confused and stared at me with her mouth opened. “X…who…what are you…really?” She stammered. I stared at her and removed my shirt revealing a ribbon like sign on my shoulder. The sign had a lightning bolt on it and the lightning bolt was color gold, and the ribbon was kind of light dark blue. I looked down at her and responded to her question. “Twilight…My name is X, and I’m part of the B.R.P.A., (Blue Ribbon Prototype Army),” I stated. I soon jump up onto the top of the building and stood right behind the titan. I looked at its neck and studied its vital spot. “Twilight, there you are, where’s X?” Apple Jack asked. Twilight pointed up. “He’s there…and he’s…,” Twilight couldn’t speak after I had revealed my true form to her. I walked a couple paces forward and screamed loud to the top of my lungs. “HEY YOU OVER SIZE TITAN FREAK!” I shouted. The titan stopped at where it was and turned to look at me. “What’s he doing?” Rainbow asked as she saw the titan walking towards me. “I am delicious…Come and eat me!” “X, are you crazy?” Rainbow Dash shouted and asked me. “Hey Titan!” I shouted again. “He’s crazy,” Rainbow Dash said. I saw that I got the titans attention and jump off from the roof. The titan charged at me and tried to grab me while I was still in midair, but I was able to doge its attack, and land on its head. I stabbed my left blade into its skull causing it to scream in pain. It began to shake its head left and right, trying to spin me off of his skull but that’s what I just want it to do. As soon as it shook me off, I flew up in the air and target my next attack…on its neck. I closed my eyes and concentrated on my body. As the thunderous rainclouds brought the sound and feel of rain to the fight, I knew that I had to be decisive. This last attack had to finish this, or Ponyville will be no more. I opened my eyes, flew down at his neck and stuck down on the titan, causing a direct hit to the weak point. I then flipped over and landed on my feet. “He did it…X did it!” Twilight shouted in joy. “Yeah, but now we’ve got a colossal titan that’s about to crush us! Everypony run for cover!” Pinkie shouted and all the ponies ran out of the way as the titan soon fell on the ground, crushing a couple of buildings, including me under its body. “Crap!” I shouted and tried to run away, but the titans fall was faster than me and soon I was trampled under a 15 meter* (*49 feet) titan. The beast soon exploded and began to disappear in the heavy rain. Smoke started to form as the titan disintegrated. The others stood their speechless and so did the other ponies that saw the fight. “What just happened?” Rainbow asked as her mouth was dropped open. “I don’t know, but let’s go find X!” Twilight announced. The others were running around the area, and debris, trying to find me. I kept hearing my voice from the wreckage. “X…X…X where are you?” Rainbow Dash shouted. “Come on out X! Where are you hiding?” Pinkie shouted too. I felt numb, by body wouldn’t respond to my actions. Guess that what happens when I used the power of my blood cells too much, but at least I could talk. I called out from a torn down house, under the titans rig cage and groaned. “…*pant*…*grunt*…T….Twilight…” I tried to speak. Twilight then saw something moving and came running to my side. “Oh my gosh X! Hang on, well get you out. Come on girls,” Twilight ordered. “He’s right under the tings bones, man this thing was big!” Rainbow Dash exclaimed as she began to bust some of the ribs off to make a way for me to get out. The others came and started to move and shift the rubble as they came to my body; Twilight held me and picked me up. “…I…I did it…”I said. Twilight smiled. “Yes…yes you did,” Twilight responded. I grunted as I lifted my hand to touch her soft face. “Listen…I…I need to tell you something. I…I was tested to see if I was able to do this,” I stated. Twilight’s eyes were confused. “What do you mean?” She asked. I cough as I tried to speak. “…What I’m…trying…to say…*cough*…I was using you…I was tested…to see if I was…worthy of living here…and I used you to get what I wanted…*cough*…I know I’m not making any sense but…what I’m trying to say is…is that I’m…I’m…ssssss…” I closed my eyes from the wasted energy I used and Twilight started to cry her eyes out. “X…X…don’t go! Please don’t go X! Don’t die, please!” Twilight shouted and tears started to fall from her eyes and drip on my face. Her friends came around me and tilt their heads as they assumed that I was dead. As Twilight held me in her arms, a tall light figure came in. “Don’t fear Twilight Sparkle…he’s alright,” Gabriel said as he approached us. She looked up and studied the other human. “What do you mean…who are you exactly?” Twilight asked. Gabriel laid a hand on me and smiled. “Why, I’m the one who sent him here. He wished for a better life and I gave him what he wanted. But I was also testing him to see if he was worthy enough to live here. And sure enough he has proven himself after thanking you and saving all of you,” Gabriel said. Twilight looked at me and traced her hoofs down my face. “Is he…?” Twilight asked and Gabriel shook his head “No need to fear, he’s just resting. He exaughsted his powers too much and fainted in the process,” He said. “X said he could regenerate…what does he mean by that?” Twilight asked. “Well, that’s something you’re going to ask him when he awakes, and stays at his new home,” Gabriel said. Twilight looked up and Gabriel smiling. "You mean…he passed?” Twilight asked. “Yes, and that’s the good thing about test coming from the Lord, in the end; He rewards his servants with treasures above this world,” He said. “So he can stay?” Pinkie asked. “Yes, but it worries me…that titan was the demon that escape from me. If others can do that, then poor little X here is going to have his hands full,” Gabriel said. Twilight smiled and looked up at the archangel. “Oh, by the way…did you respond to my wish?” Twilight asked. Gabriel turned to her and drew a smile. “Why yes of course…You may not notice it, but X has a thing for you Twilight…he just doesn’t want to admit it,” He said smiling. Twilight was confused. “How does X have a thing for me?” She asked. Gabriel smiled. “…Because you gotten under his skin, and in reality; he’s a lot like you,” He announced. Twilight blushed and looked down. “Oh, and one more thing…ask X what is the B.R.P.A…I’m sure he’ll tell you,” He said. Twilight nodded and as Gabriel turned around, he flicked his fingers and in a flash, he fixed and restored everything that was destroyed and disappeared leaving the ponies confounded and with me lying unconscious in the rain. Remember the Past. Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.A Fight Between BrothersSomething has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.An Unexpected wish GrantedIt’s been ten years since my family died. Ever since then, my uncle has been treating me like a little witch and I sometimes use that to my advantage. Whenever someone would pick on me, or call me down…that’s the last of them. But back to the story…It was the middle of winter, the year twenty one twenty. I had just finished my job being a delivery guy, delivering…pizzas to my last customers I checked my watch and I was really late for my curfew. Seriously, who orders pizza in eleven o’ clock in the night? I packed up my stuff, closed down the place and drove my way home. As I drove up the drive way I opened up at the garage door and next thing I knew in ten seconds I hear a glass bottle break on the door as it was coming up. “Where were you, you bucking idiot!” An angrily voice shouted from up the house. Once again, I’m harshly greeted by my so called uncle. “I was making a late delivery to some custom-! I was quickly interrupted by another bottle smacking me on the head and breaking on impact. “Don’t give me excuses! No dinner for you, go straight to bed!” He shouted and slammed his window shut. I rubbed my head from where the bottle fell on me and I blew out a long sigh. “It’s going to be one hell of night,” I said to myself and closed the garage door. I walked up to my room and as expected my uncle was fast asleep again. I opened my door and entered the safe solitary confinement of my room. I plopped down on bed thinking about if there was a life of happiness that’s the life I want. I snuggled in my bed and dozed away into sleep. But an uncertainty slips into my mind. I had this feeling like something out there is reaching out to me, calling me. I decided to sleep it all off. After all, I have to get up and three a.m. in the morning to open…sigh what a drag. Somewhere in Equestria In the land of Equestria, there was a small town that held happiness and peace at the same time. In the small town of ponyville, there lived a purple unicorn named Twilight Sparkle. She was walking in to the store because of an order of books had just came in for her. As she was walking along the road, she was greeted by Pinkie Pie. “Hey there Twilight, how are you doing?” Pinkie asked. “Oh just fine Pinkie,” Twilight responded. “I can’t wait for the comets tonight!” Pinkie said as she was bouncing up and down. “Oh yeah, I forgot those were today, I got to study on some facts about those for the princess,” Twilight said. “So did you hear the rumors?” Pinkie asked. Twilight raised an eyebrow. “What rumors?” Twilight asked. “Well, legend has it that if you wish on one of the comets when the celestial comets fall in the sky it can grant the one thing you desire the most! Mine is cupcakes, what’s yours?’ Pinkie asked. “I don’t have a desire for anything. As long as it’s interesting,” Twilight alleged. “Okay…oh and by the way I know you’re lying!” Pinkie said. “What? How dare you say that Pinkie! I’m not lying about anything!” Twilight shouted. “You want a special somepony to be with you huh?” Pinkie said as she winked at her friend. Twilight scoffed and continued to walk. “That’s absurd Pinkie,” Twilight said. “Okaedokie!” Pinkie pie said and continued to pounce up and down while walking with Twilight. As they approached the store, Twilight and Pinkie entered in. The shop owner saw his customers and welcomed them. “Hello there Twilight! Come to pick up your order?’ The shop owner asked. “Yes sir, here you go,” Twilight said as she paid him. The shop owner collected the money and gave Twilight her stuff. “Oh by the way, the wishing comets are on tonight! If you’re lucky, the one that grants your wish is smaller than the rest, but yet is faster than them all. If you find it and close your eyes and make a wish, I’ll happen,” The shop owner said. “Oh, sounds exciting!” Pinkie said. “Okay, I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks for the books,” Twilight said. “You’re welcome Twilight! See ya later!” The shop owner said. As Twilight and Pinkie walked out of the store, Pinkie realized something and gasped. “I almost forgot! I was supposed to babysit the Cake’s babies today! See ya later Twilight!” Pinkie said as she dashed off to Sugar Cube Corners. “See ya Pinkie,” Twilight said. As Twilight walked back to her house, it started to turn night very quickly. Twilight saw that Spike was fast asleep and she decided to continue with her studies. As she wrote down some notes on pre-colonial history, she saw the comets were falling from the sky already. She grabbed her solar studied book and ran towards her window balcony and was amazed at them. She then saw what looked like the smaller comet that flew fast by her eyes, just like what the shop owner had described. Twilight looked left; right, up and down to see if anypony was watching. She then closed her eyes and made her wish. “I wish I had somepony to be with…forever,” She silently said. She then went back into the room and continued her studies. Little did Twilight know, she should’ve watch what she wished for…because she was about to get it. Back at Tokyo Japan I had just delivered my last order of pizza to couple of kids who wanted it for a party. Let me tell you something, it was one hell of an order! As I was driving back to my house, I realized I had a call. It was my uncle. I picked up the phone and answered it. “What the hell do you want old man?” I asked. “Listen…I know I’m the last one to be speaking to you. But I need your help,” He said. I was surprised that my uncle wanted my help. “Uh…Uncle, are you on crack?” I asked. “Listen to me X, This is serious! You know those clients I was supposed to have a meeting with?” he asked. I remembered. “What about them?” I asked. “Well, those little crap heads are planning to shut down my house! I need you to call in Neko and his gang of cronies to get rid of those idiots!” He shouted. I blanked out at the last part, and as expected from my uncle, he sends my friends to do some shit job for him. “…sigh. Fine, I’ll see what I can do,” I said. “Thanks oh, and one other thing…IF YOU DON’T PUT GAS IN THE CAR WHEN YOU’RE DONE, YOU ARE BUCKING DEAD!” He shouted one last ime and hung up the phone. I sighed and rubbed my eyes as I dialed Neko’s number while driving in the road. I placed the phone back on my ear and waited for an answer. “Hello?” A voice asked. “Hey Neko? It’s me X,” U said. Nekobelic laugh over the phone. “Well, well, well, if it isn’t the infamous X! Tell me, how is the old goat?” He asked. “If you’re referring to my uncle…he’s still alive. Listen he needs you and his gang to do another job. I’ll throw in fifty large pizzas and some nip for you guys on the house,” I said. Neko laugh. “…Alrighty then, what does the old face want us to do,” He said and I can tell his voice was a little shaky. “Are you alright?” I asked. “I’m fine! He shouted. “You did it again didn’t you?” I said “It was on sale! Fifty booze for half a dollar!” He shouted. “Just get the job done and get some prescription. I’ll email the address to you,” I said. I type in the address and the location to him on his mobile. He studied the facts and sighed. “Okay, well do it. Have a great night,” He said and hung up. As I drove up on the drive way again, a beer bottle fell on the hood of the car and shattered. I looked out of my window and saw my uncle. “Is it done?” He asked. “I sent him and his buddies the things. Plus some extra stuff. But yeah it’s done,” I said. “Good, that’ll teach those rug buckets to mess with me!” He shouted and slammed the window shut. As I exit out of my car, I looked into the sky and to my surprise there were stars out! I never saw the stars out before like this. I decided to lean back on my car and look into the sky, still dreaming about a peaceful place. As I continued to look, I see one star fall from the sky faster than the other ones. I guess this was my luck day. I closed my eyes and made my wish. “I wish I was somewhere peaceful and quiet to be in with someone,” I said. As I looked at the sky, the dark clouds from the nearby factories covered them back up and that ended my star gazing time. I walked back into my room and decided to kill some time going on my computer. I looked up on my Twitter account and some other sites as well, just to pass the time. I watched a couple of Markiplier and Pewdiepie stuff as my result of being bored. I was about to shut my computer down and go to the local bar, until the strangest thing happens. My computer shuts to a black screen and shows only a white bar on the top of the screen. ‘What the hell?’ I thought to myself as the screen started to freak me out. Then suddenly words start to form on the screen. I watch closely as the words started to form. How are you young man? How are you doing?’ Seriously, that’s the first question it asks me? I sat down and watch as it continued to write more. This was getting real freaky. Just Follow the instructions I’m about to give to you and you’ll get your wish... Okay, now it even knows my name! I respond with my voice to the computer. “Who the hell are you, and what do you want from me?” I asked. At first there was nothing, so I decided to type it, but an answer came back to me again! ...My name is irrelevant, and I don’t want anything from you X, I want to help you...I sat back and asked it again, this time I was dead serious about it. “Help me with what?” I asked again. The computer took some time to answer my question. With you wish of course! I can grant it for you. I can give you a happy life, a peaceful life, a loveable life...This couldn’t be a coincidence could it? I mean sure I wished on a star, but how did this piece of crap know about that? How can you give it to me?” I asked. The computer showed some direction on the screen that I had to follow. First it told me to place my left hand on the screen of the computer, next it told me to sit up straight and keep still, finally it said to pressed the Enter key and it will happen. I didn’t know what do think about this, but if this computer can give me a happy life, then I’m willing to get it. I did everything the computer told me to do and finally, all I had to do was press the Enter key. My heart started to beat rapidly and I started to sweat actually as well. I closed my eyes and prayed to God to keep me safe! I pressed the Enter key and at first there was nothing… I think I missed as step or something? I followed them all. Just as I removed my hand from the screen, a flash of light shot through my computer and flashed on me. I covered my eyes as the light shinned through my room. Then I look at my hand, it was being digitalized! I started to panic as my whole body started to as well! I screamed as the digitalization went all the way to my face and soon there was a nothing but silence in my room. “HEY YOU LITTLE-! Huh, he must’ve left to go eat or something. Fine by me,” My uncle said as he shut the door. But what he didn’t know was that I wasn’t out eating, I was out being teleported to somewhere else, far from him, and far from where I was living. I was being teleported to my so called wish and it was painful enough to find it. “Why…where…are...you…taking…me!” I strained and tried to speak. The computer somehow responded to my answer with a voice this time! “I’m taking you to a place where you have a decision…you can stay where you were, and live a life of death, or live a life of peace and happiness,” The voice said. I felt a strong surge of power flowing into my vines and a burning pain inside my head. “It…hurts…so…bad!” I screamed. “Just relax, where here,” The voice said and soon enough the end of the portal shot me out and sent me flying into an unknown area, where I fell and ram my head into a tree and fainted due to the impact. As the portal closed away, I was laying in the middle of nowhere in the dark, sleeping away from my head encounter by a tree. Being oblivious to what went around me. I grunted in pain as I came to and found myself in some sort of field outside. Where the hell did that thing send me? I got up, and looked at my arm; cut and broken, it was busted up pretty bad. Must’ve happened when the tree caught my fall when I fell out of the portal. “Great…now…grunt…i…got…to…find…a…place…to…rest,” I strained and got up, holding my right arm in pan and limp walking through the floor. I then heard some noises and voices from behind me. Crap, I can’t be caught by anyone; they might think I’m an alien. I sprinted up as fast as I can, still in pain, but nothing compared to what those feds will do if they catch me. I ran so fast that I came to a forest and had no other choice; I went in the dark woods, oblivious about what was going too happened to me in there. In Ponyville As Twilight woke up, she wondered what in the world was that sound. She got up, rubbed her eyes and looked out her window to see. She saw what looked like smoke and some fire in the fields of ponyville. Some of the local ponies around woke up and walked outside to see what had happened. “Spike…Spike…Spike wake up!” Twilight said as she shook him. Spike got up yawned and saw Twilight standing right in front of him. “What is it Twilight? I was sleeping pretty well, He said. “Something is wrong! Everypony is going outside to see what had happened. Something might’ve crashed in the fields of ponyville,” Twilight said. Spike didn’t cared and fell back to sleep. Twilight got up, and ran outside to see what was at the site. Many of the ponies were wondering what had took place, and some of the ponyville police were blocking the entrance. Twilight sees her friends, who were asking what had happened. “Twilight, what are you doing out here?” Apple Jack asked. “I was about to ask everypony the same question,” Twilight said. “They said some crazy blue light shinned out of nowhere and there was a loud boom after that,” Rainbow Dash said. Twilight felt like there was something else wrong. She looked from the corner of her eye and noticed something. “Hey girls…haven’t anypony notice something?” Twilight asked. The others nodded their heads no. “…Look at the floor. Footprints, they must belong to some rare creature,” Twilights she walked up and studied them. “They look like it’s is in some sort of trouble.” Fluttershy said. “How can you tell?” Twilight asked. “Well, look. The way the prints are walking, the poor thing must be in pain, but I never seen any footprints like this before,” Fluttershy said. “You can say that again Fluttershy sweetie. I mean, look, what are they? I never seen that kind of walk pattern before,” Apple Jack said. “Whatever it is, lest follow these prints. Come on girls,” Twilight said. As they followed the prints, they studied the trace of how they were leading, they were awfully weird. They continued to follow them until the front came to a stop. “Oh no…the prints continue on, but it lead straight into…The EverFree Forest!” Twilight said. The others gulped in fear as they saw the dark woods were even more eerie in the night. “Well it’s gone; maybe it’s just dead, good night!” Rainbow Dash said and tried to fly off, but if it wasn’t for Twilight who grabbed her with her magic she would’ve been back at her house. “Oh no Rainbow…the poor creature is alone and hurt in there. We have to find it and bring it back to the Library,” Twilight said. “Uh, I knew you were going to say that,” Rainbow Dash said as she followed the others into the EverFree Forest.
Nightmares aren't realIt was the middle of the night, at least eleven in the night. I was sleeping away in my bed, thinking about many happy thoughts. My mid was focused on sheep, jumping over a fence and sinning song together. That was the plan until someone shook me vigorously on my bed. My eyes squinted as I saw who woke me up from my dream. “X…X are you awake?” A soft voice asked. “Not now…five more minutes,” I said. Then the voice even got louder. “X WAKE UP!” The voice shouted. I was about to pull the cover over until I felt a wetness fall on my face. Who was...? Was it raining and somepony got caught in the rain, or…I yawned and rubbed my eyes from the wet water that fell on my face, and as I opened my eyes I saw my best friend Twilight standing near my bed. “X, are you awake?” She asked me. I sighed and rubbed my head. “I am now Twilight…yawned…what’s the matter?” I asked as I got up and sat up straight on my bed. “…I had that nightmare again,” Twilight said. My eyes shot opens I looked into her eyes and as I looked upon her face, she had eyes of red. “I thought you recovered from that stuff,” I said as I touched her face. She nuzzled her face into my hand and felt my hand. “I…sniff…this time…it…it was about you,” She said. I looked at her and scouted over on my bed. “Sit down and tell me the nightmare you had,” I said. Twilight got up on my bed and sat down. As she wiped her eyes she sighed and spoke up. “It was during the winter seasons…I was with you, just the two of us. I was happy, and my friends were also happy as well. One day, Ponyville was under attacked by beast of terrible destruction. They devoured everything in sight,” She shivered and spoke. “What happened?” I asked again. She stuttered and started to cry again. “You…sniff…I saw you leave us. You left me alone to die in the dark, and left all of us to die. You even said I was dead weight to you and you hated me. You…sob…you said life would be better without me, so you…sob…you smacked me in the face and beat me up so much that you wished I was never existed!” Twilight started to bawl into tears and covered up her face as she reported her terrible nightmare to me. I was shocked and my heart felt sadden at this news. I leaned in and held her closely to my chest and kissed her on the forehead. “Twilight…I swear to God that I would never ever do that! I would never do any of those things you mentioned to me. You are everything to me Twilight, and I never told you this but…I love you,” I said. Twilight looked up and saw my face water up in tears of sadness and joy. “You…sniff…you love…me?” Twilight asked. “Of course I do, who wouldn’t love a fantastic pony like you! You’re smart, brilliant, and even…even…” I stuttered and as I looked into her eyes I felt kind of warm in my heart. …Even what X?” Twilight asked. I blushed as she drew her face closer to mine. As she came closer, I spoke the words. …You’re even more beautiful than any other pony in Equestria,” I said. The next thing I knew, my lips were drawn to hers and we kissed each other slow and long and we held onto each other, promising that we would never let each other go. As she drew away from me I could tell she was happy once more. “Um…X, if it’s alright with you can I sleep with you in your bed?” She asked quietly. I can tell she doesn’t want to go sleep in her own bed. So I smiled and wiped a tear from her eye. “You can Twilight. You’re always welcomed to sleep with me whenever you want,” I said. As I lay back down on my bed, she climb into the bed as well, and poked her cute little head out of the sheets. “…Did you really mean all of those things you said to me X?” She asked. I looked at her and pecked her on the nose. “Of course I did. I swear to you, I will not leave or forsake you. Not now not ever,” I said. As we lay there, silently on the comfortable bed, Twilight spoke up about something. “Um…X, can I ask you something else?” Twilight ask. I turned to her and responded. “What is it?” I asked. She clapped with her hooves and started to stutter in her speech. “Um…whenever you sleep…I hear you talking about…uh…sigh. Who is Rebecca X?” Twilight asked again. I flinched as she mentioned that name. “…Four years ago, my father was a captain of a naval ship. His vessel hit a mine while delivering supplies to the Allied troops in our region, my mother died of giving my birth, and the rest of my family was killed in Nagasaki. My only living family member was my older sister, Rebecca. She and I were the only ones left of our family. But one day, a group of thugs came and robbed our house, my sister was trained in the martial arts, but as they stormed our house, I remained hidden as the gang took down my sister right before my eyes. The last things she said to me before the cops arrived were simple words… ‘don’t live a life in fear, be happy and always…be…strong,” I started to shiver and cry as well due to the tension of the memories of my past. Twilight held me close to her and kissed me on the cheek. “Oh, X…I’m so sorry. To lose all of your family is…I’m sorry,” Twilight said as she held me tight. I felt my heart sink into this warm, cozy feeling and I felt happy again. “Twilight…Whenever I see you, I just don’t want to lose you. You are everything to me and i…i…I love you so much that I’m willing to die for you,” I announced. Twilight smiled and gave me a little kissy lick on my neck. “I love you too X. You are everything to me as well,” She said. As we fell asleep, we held each other closely and tightly on my bed. So if anypony ever walks in and sees me sleeping while holding onto a purple alicorn, you know to leave me alone. Because if I love Twilight, and if Twilight loves me, then I don’t want to depart from her…Twilight is everything to me, and that’s that. END
First EncounterAs I marched into the dark woods, not knowing where I would end up, I could tell that I had escape the crowed that came my way. I took a breather and collapse down on a nearby tree. As I checked my arm, the pain was even more excruciating than before. I ripped off a part of my shirt and wrapped it around the wounded area. “There…that should be good, for now at least,” I said. I looked around myself and realized something else as well. It was pitch black in here. I pulled out my flashlight in my jacket pocket and flick it on. But apparently, it must’ve been the humidity damaging the batteries because I could get it to barley work! “CRAP!” I shouted in the forest and seemed to cause every living thing that was hungry to come my way. The next thing I knew, I was being stared down my something in the dark. I saw a pair of eyes right in front of me and I felt the shivers going down my spine. I knew one thing though…Whatever is watching me, it knows I’m weak, and venerable enough to be attacked. Meanwhile on the path way, Twilight and her friends were walking straight down the forest, staying together in these dark woods. “Seems like it was only yesterday we walked through these woods. This is where we first became great friends,” Twilight said. “Yeah, those were great times,” Apple Jack said. As they continued to march, they saw that the tracks were getting deeper. “…These are new tracks. There fresh and look, Twilight walked over to a red puddle of something and examined it. “What in the name of ponyville is that?” Rainbow Dahs asked. Pinkie Pie walked over and did something stupid. “Oh, it looks pretty, let me taste it!” Pinkie then dipped her hoof in it and licked it. “PINKIE PIE!” They all shouted. At first there was nothing, and then something must’ve been wrong because Pinkie Pie’s face turned green and the next thing she knew she threw up in a nearby bush. “That…taste…awful,” Pinkie said with a shiver. Twilight rolled her eyes and used her magic to summon a useful tool. As she made it appear, she scooped the red stuff and examined it. She couldn’t believe her eyes! “Girls…you’re not going to believe this but that stuff is…is…is…BLOOD!” Twilight shouted. The others eyes shot open. “You mean to tell me that that thing out there that we’re following…is bleeding to death?” Apple Jack asked. “Could be possible, the way this…blood…gulp…is laid here, it looks like its loosing blood, and a lot of it,” Twilight said. “Well we must find that poor creature and help him!” Rarity said. “Hold on, haven’t you forgotten something…we’re stuck here in the dark!” Rainbow Dahs shouted. Then in the mist of her voice a large explosion blew not too far from the ponies. “Whoa! What the hay was that?” Apple Jack asked as she held her hat on tighter. “I don’t know, but lest find out!” Twilight alleged. She and the others ran as fast as they can to where the explosions were happening. At the site of the explosions I was dogging and throwing makeshift explosives I had received from Neko as a trade for the pizza, but I was running low on ammunition fast. “Come on you wooden freaks! I can do this all night!” I shouted. I had seen my predators were wood like wolves and I was kind of freaked out a bit. But a wolf is a wolf, and they always like meat! Another one tried to jump on my back, but luckily I dogged the attack and kicked the wolf in the jaw, causing it to break. Good thing I took Romans Fighting arts back at his place. But there were still five more and the other ones I demolish just keep putting themselves back together! Dammit, that is so not fair! They all ganged up on me again, hoping they could sink their fangs into my body. I stood my ground, but I was apparently handicapped and could only fight with one arm. I stood firm as they charged at me again. In a nearby bush, Twilight and her friend as were able to find the culprit they were following and were beyond words at this point! “That…it’s…it can’t…a human in Equestria!?” Twilight stuttered. “This…is…so…AWESOME!” Rainbow Dash squealed. As they continued to watch me from afar, I noticed hem as soon as I kicked a timber wolf down and broke his jaw. “What the-! GAHHH!” I shouted in pain as one of the Timberwolves bit into my right arm, the same arm that was morally wounded from the fall. I fell in pain as another bit into my left leg. I screamed in pain as they gathered around me. “You girls we got to do something! He might be the one we’re following!” Fluttershy said. “What do we do against Timberwolves?” Rainbow Dahs asked AS I looked up, I saw the animals arguing over to save me or not, I gathered up the last of my strength and shouted at them. “ARE YOU GOING TO STAND THERE ALL FUCKING DAY!? GET OVER HERE AND HELP ME!” I shouted. The animals looked at me and were even shocked. “Did he…just…speak?” Rainbow Dash asked. “Whatever he is…I’m not letting him die. Let’s go girls!” Twilight shouted. As she jumps out form the bush, the others followed her in and charge at the wooden animals. The two other ones pinning me down threw me at a tree and ran to help the others. Twilight and her friends fought continuously until the leader of the pack received a blow of magic to the head. The others whimpered and ran away deeper into the woods. My eyes started fade and my vision started to blur too. I felt the blood rushing out of me like a river, a very fast river. “Crap…crap…it hurts…it hurts…it hurts…,” I thought in pain. I looked at my body and was not pleased at what I saw. The animals I shouted at rushed to my side, examining my wounds. “Hey…hey…can you hear me?” A purple figure said to me. My eyes started to fade into black as I continue to lose more blood. “We need to get him out of here, quickly now ya’ll,” I heard another voice said. As my eyes shut down, I fell into an eternal slumber and fainted as I was unaware of my rescuers. My body felt numb, numb as a clod dead figure. “….Am I dead?” I thought to myself. I continue to hear voices around me as well. “…We can’t let the ponyville police find him! They’ll throw him into jail!” “We can’t keep it a secret either Twilight! Somepony is going to find out!” I continue to hear bickering and arguing over my sleep. I felt my muscles going control again, so I guess I could probably open my eyes. I squinted open my eyes as I awoke from my slumber, and as I did the voices silenced. “Shh, he’s waking up!” Another voice said. As my eyes came to, I saw I was lying on a soft bed, my wounds all bandage up, and I was alive again. “What…where am I?” I asked myself. As I looked up I saw that I was surrounded my six colorful animals around the bed I’m lying on. I thought I was in someone’s house with a bunch of animals…until reality hit me. “Oh my…he’s such a handsome darling isn’t he?” A white horned horse said to me. My eyes shot open as I saw and heard those words. “GAHHH!” I jolted up from the bed and then slammed it on the wall behind me. “Are you all right?” The purple one asked. I was totally freaked out right now. “What…what are you? Scratch that part where the fuck am I?” I shouted. “You’re in Equestria, but the place you’re currently in is called ponyville,” A pink horse said. “But…but…I was…I...Gah!” I flinched as I looked at my wounds, they were all bandage up and well. “Careful now…you injured yourself pretty badly,” The purple on said. “You…you helped me?” I asked. “Yeah, you’re welcome mister,” A blue flying horse said to me. I looked at them and realized something; they were horses, but ones with wings and horns. I think I heard of them before. “So who are you? Some kind of talking horses?” I asked. “Hey, that’s ponies to you sir!” The blue on said. “So you’re a pony?” I asked again. “NO! I’m a pegasus, a type of flying pony and those two over there are unicorns!” The blue one said again. “Okay I’m trying to get everything right here, pegasus, unicorns, earth ponies…so do you have names?” I asked. “Of course, my name is Twilight Sparkle, this is Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Apple Jack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie,” Twilight said. “Nice…to…meet you,” I said. “Now it’s our turn. What is your name? We know you’re a human, and we don’t see humans here in Equestria very often,” Twilight asked. “How do you know humans?” I asked. “I’ve read every book in this library about different types of species. Goblins, Draconians, Centaurs, Basilisk, etcetera, etc.,” Twilight said. “Well…if that’s the case, my name is X,” I said. I could tell I was going to be stuck her for a long time and one thing i know that I knew for sure is this…I got my wish.
First NightI guess I never got the whole concept of ‘be careful what you wish for,’ thing, because the next thing I knew, I was sitting on a bed with six talking ponies right now. I took in some deep breaths as I tried to sum up of what had happened to me. “Okay. Let me sum up on what is happening here. I’m in a place called ponyville, I’m surrounded by talking ponies, and I’m all healed up because you,” I stated it all up. “Yes that’s right…so I think a thank you is needed right now,” Twilight said. “Well…No need to be harsh about it,” I said as I rubbed my right arm, still not believing that I was healed that quickly. “Amazing huh? My magic healed you up, although you may need to rest because it was only enough to heal the wound, but not the bleeding” Twilight said. My eyes shot wide open. Did you just say…magic?” I asked. “Yeah, don’t you have magic in your world?” Twilight asked. “Yeah…we do. But…wait, I’m confused! How did I get here?” I shouted. “That’s what we wanted to know. How did you get here, and why were you half dead when we saw you?” Rainbow Dash asked. “Well…as far as I know, I wished on a star,” I said. Twilights eyes blew up in flares. “…You…wished…on…a…star!?” Twilight asked apprehensively. “Yeah, I wished for a happy life. A life of peace and…nothing,” I said as I flexed my hands. “You…made…a…wish!?” Twilight stammered. “What’s it to you?” I asked. She looked at me and I could tell that she was concerned about something that had to do with the star I said. “What is it?” I asked. “Oh…it’s…nothing!” Twilight said. “So what’s your story…?” I asked “What story?” Apple Jack asked. “Why did you save me? Don’t I look like a freak to you?” I asked. “Well you maybe a little…weird, but you were the one who called out for help,” Twilight said. I remembered that I did call for help and I needed it real badly. “Well, thank you for your hospitality, but I need to be going,” I said. I removed the covers and laid my feet on the floor. The ponies protested against my act. “No you can’t! You need to-!” Twilight was interrupted by the way I stood on my feet, even though my left leg was hurt badly. “But…how…your leg…it was…,” Twilight was confounded as I looked at my bandages and removed them all off. As I removed the wrappings on my body, the scars and wounds on me had healed automatically and I was brand new. “But how is that possible! We saw you were morally wounded! How the heck did you heal yourself?” Rainbow Dahs asked. I looked at my hands and saw that I had recovered fully well with them as well. “There’s a lot of stuff you may not know about me. Now if you excuse me…I have to-GAH!” I fell on the ground in pain for some reason. As I looked at my legs, they were still asleep form the healing process that I had to endure. “See, you need to rest!” Twilight shouted. I placed my hands on the floor and forced myself to get up off of the ground. “I’m…okay…grunt…just…need…huff…to…get…up…GAH!” I strained again and fell on the floor as my left hand slipped. “Get on the bed now! Here let me help you,” Twilight said. I sighed and decided to listen to Twilight and her friends for once. After all they did save my life; I need to listen to the wished of my savers. “…Okay, I’ll get back in the bed,” I said. I lifted up my hand and grabbed onto the bed, using it to help me balance up straight and I plopped my rear back on and lay down. At least I got a soft bed to rest in, uncles beds felt like bricks. I’m surprised that dude is still alive. “There you go…If you need anything at all, just call for us. We’ll be available, right girls?” Twilight asked. As she turned around, the whole room was empty, leaving me with the purple unicorn named Twilight. “Well, that’s some way to greet a guest,” I said. Twilight turned around chuckling nervously and sighed. “Well, I’ll be here if you need anything,” She stated. I pulled the covers back over me and took in a couple of breaths. “I think I’ll be alright,” I said. Twilight smiled and left the bedroom. Leaving me alone, I was able to calm myself down and catch a few moments to think about my situation. “…I wonder who the hell sent me here. If it was uncle I’m going to punch that son of a-!” I was interrupted by a shimmer of light, flashing in front of the bed. I got up and stared at the light as it flew around the room, as if it was happy to see me. “Who the hell are you?”1 I asked. The light descended on the floor and soon flash happened in the room, causing me to cover my eyes. As I removed my arm from my eyes, I saw a tall figure, a man, dressed in white and standing right in the middle of the room. “I see you made it in…well, I wouldn’t say in one piece,” The man said as he looked at my body. “YOU!? This is your entire fault! Why did you send me here?” I asked. “I wanted to give you your wish, but I also wanted to test you as well,” The man said. “Test me? Why?” I asked again. “You lived a life of hell, but thanks to that wish of yours you summoned me and now I’m testing you,” He said. I studied the figure a bit and this man looked weird. He was dressed in white, but he had blond hair, modern day, spikey, had a bit of facial hair on his chin and face, and looked really beautiful. It took me a short time to realize who I was talking to! “YOU CAN’T BE! YOU’RE-!” The man laughs and smiles at me in amusement. “That is right X…I am Gabriel the archangel. I came to you after you wish and prayed for a better life. So I’m giving it to you,” He said. I stammered and fell out of my bed in shock. Gabriel laughs again and walked up to me giving me a hand. “But…shouldn’t you be…I thought…! HOW!?” I shouted. “I have my ways…as long they’re all right with my King I serve,” Gabriel said as he pulled me back up. “Why did you send me here? Of all places, why couldn’t you send me to heaven?” I asked. “Well…I would’ve but Michael said we needed to test you in order to see if you’re fit to enter the Kingdom of God,” He said. ‘Test me? Test me for what?” I asked as he helped me back on the bed. “You have a choice here X…You can live a life of peace with these, interesting animals, and become the bright, young, happy man I know you can be…or, you can go back to that hell hold in Tokyo, and live a life of death. Either way, it’s your choice in the end,” Gabriel said and folded his hands together. I sat up on the bed, thinking about the life I could have here. Maybe it couldn’t be that bad. “How long is the test?” I asked. “Oh, not long…after you thank Twilight and say your answer, then you pass,” Gabriel said. “And if I fail?” I asked in curiosity. “Sigh…then I’ll have no choice but the let Satan come and take you away,” He said. I flinched again and smacked my head back on the bunk of the bed. Gabriel smiled. “Gezz…sigh…I’ll take the test, on one condition!” I said. “And what would that be?” Gabriel; asked. “…If I pass, I want to see Rebecca. One last time,” I said. Gabriel looked at my eyes and saw determination in them. He smiled and held out his hand. “…Agreed,” He said. I reached out my hand and shook hands with one of the most famous angels in the Bible. “I think you should go. I don’t want Twilight and her friends to be even more surprised if they saw another human here,” I said. Gabriel laughs again! This guy was really getting on my nerves. “Sigh…I like you X! I’m sure you’ll pass, although Michael is uncertain. Have a good day X!” Gabriel said and flew off back into the sky, only to disappear as he entered the stars. I looked outside and saw the stars. I was amazed this place had stars out! Finally I can get some serious star gazing done, right after i got some sleep! I lay back in my bed as night was almost up. I pulled the covers back over me and fell asleep, thinking about Gabriel’s dumb test that I had accepted.
The Next MorningI awoke the next morning and felt a bit better after I rested up. I felt a stronger power in my muscles and I knew that was part of the healing thing. I got up, rubbed my eyes and scratch my head. I felt a little uncomfortable after sleeping on such a short bed. “Oh what a night, I could barely sleep after pulling my arm out of the corner of the bed,” I said. I scratch my arms and cracked my knuckles. Feeling my strength coming back to me, I felt great. Twilight was still sleeping on her bed and I guessed I could go for a walk. I got out of bed and walked my way downstairs. I was surprised that this Twilight character read so many books. I studied the shelf and saw many different types of books. Astronomy in Equestria, The study of Ponynology, History 101 of Equestria…This pony loved to read! I continued to look through the shelf and I happened to find a book that caught my eye. “The History of Equestria and all of its stories,” I sat down on a nearby couch and opened up the book. As I flipped and read some of the pages of this story, my eyes were like in a trance or something. I never heard of a place this peaceful…well sometimes peaceful. But I was in awe of the history of this place. I was so into the book that I didn’t even hear the sounds of a hoof beat right behind me, then a voice. “Oh, you’re awake?” Twilight asked. I flinched out of the chair and fell down on my face. Twilight tried her best not to laugh. “I’m…so…sorry…Hahahahah!” Twilights laughing was uncontrollable. I got up and picked back up the book that I dropped. “You really got me,” I said as I placed the book up on the shelf. “Are you sure you should be walking? I mean, you were hurt pretty bad,” Twilight alleged. “No worries, like I said, I can regenerate myself up,” I said. Twilight continued to look at me with a perplexed look. “What do you mean by regeneration?” Twilight asked. I turned to her and she looked like she was concerned, but I took a deep breath in and blew out. “It’s nothing…I’m going out,” I said. She came back to reality and was following me still. “Oh, well, I’ll accompany you then…My name is Twilight Sparkle like I said, what’s yours again?” She asked. I turned to her and looked at her eyes. “…The name is X, and that’s all you need to know,” I said. She smiled and walked along side me. “Well, we better get going,” Twilight said. I sighed and removed the bandages off of my body. I thought about last night and what about Gabriel said to me. If I don’t pass this test, I won’t be able to see Rebecca again. But saying thank you isn’t part of me…I don’t even know if I can say it. “Hey…Twilight,” I said. She turned to me. “Yes, X?” She asked. I walked up to her, knelt down to her level. “I…I…” I stammered. She looked at me confused. “What is it X? Do you have a temperature, or are you sick?” She asked. I decide to suck it in and wait a minute. I moved my hand and opened the door. “Come on…Let’s go,” I said. She had a confounded look on her face and I can’t blame her for having one. I mean if I was to pass this test Gabriel gave me, I should find a way to pass it. “Oh, X. I need to go somewhere real quick, I’ll catch up to you later,” Twilight said and ran off. I took a deep breath in and out. I looked at my hand and clenched it one more time. “I hope I still have them,” I said silently to myself. I decided to walk down the street of the place and I had a lot of animals looking at me with strange complexions, some even ran away from me. It wasn’t long before I ran into a couple of ponies balling ball. As one would kick it, the other would try to catch it. As I studied the way the two were playing, I remembered how I used to play like that with Rebecca. The other pony kicked the ball so high that it got stuck in the tree next to me and the two were disappointed. They ran to where I was at and stopped at least ten meters away from me. I can tell they were afraid, so I decided to help them out a bit. I climb up on the tree, one limb at a time until I came to the area where the ball was at. I reached over and grabbed it with my left hand, while my other hand was holding onto the branch, but then the next thing I remember is hearing the branch snap, and before I knew it, I was on the ground with my rib cages sticking out…LITERALLY! “You okay there sir?” The two asked me. I opened my eyes and saw them standing next to me. “Yeah, here’s your ball,” I said. They took it and continued to play. “Thank you mister whatever you are!” The other one shouted and ran off to be with his buddy. As I picked myself off the ground, I heard a familiar voice next to me. “Well, that’s one way to retrieve a ball for somepony,” the voice said. I turned around and saw Gabriel standing in a bright suit and tie. “What are you doing here?” I asked. I positioned my self-sitting down and fixed up my body. “You still haven’t thanked Twilight,” He said. I lifted up my shirt and saw that my ribs had come out of my sides. “Well…if you…grunt…hadn’t…snap…said thank you…crack to some random animal that talks and saved your life…pop…you would be speechless as well,” I said as I rearranged my broken ribs back into place and shoved them down back in my body. “My, my…You really are a site to behold,” Gabriel said as he offered his hand. I rejected it and picked myself up. “Yes I gathered that,” I alleged. I soon realized he was here again, but for what purpose. “Why are you here?” I asked. Gabriel sighed and looked at me. “Well, I need a favor of you X,” Gabriel said. “What kind of favor?” I questioned with a raised eyebrow. “Apparently I was supposed to escort a demon I had captured in the human world, but somehow, he escaped me and hid in this world,” The archangel said. “God’s most trusted angel…lost a demon he captured. Huh, guess heaven is lacking proper guardians,” I said. “Ha, ha…Anyways this bloke is a high level demon. I keep my eyes out for him,” He said to my face up close. “How do I even find him? It’s not like I have a watch that detects the spiritual present of a demon,” I said. Gabriel smiled and held out his hand. “Actually, you do. Here, this is only for archangel guardians, but I guess I can make an exception for you,” Gabriel said. I retrieved the watch and studied it. “It’s a…a…piece of crap,” I said. “How dare you! That’s the famous hand work heaven can bestow upon you,” Gabriel yelled. “How do I know if this demon is near?” I asked him. “The watch will vibrate on your wrist. If it starts to vibrate slowly, it means the demon is far, but coming, however if it starts to vibrate like mad, it means that he’s very, very close by and that X my boy, is when you need to be extra careful,” Gabriel said. I studied the thing and clenched it in my fist. “Alright, I’ll do it,” I said. “That’s the spirit!” He announced. I soon realized something and asked him a question. “Hey, don’t these ponies see you?’ I asked. He laughs and patted my shoulder. “No, you see, I’m a spirit. No one can see us unless we want them to,” Gabriel said. “Really, because I have about half of the village seeing you and I talking,” I said. He flinched and when we both turned our heads left and right, ponies all over the place were gathered at the tree. “Oh, well, I’ll take care of this. Anyways good luck and be careful too. He’s a nasty one,” Gabriel said. “Hold on, one more thing…If you have this, and it can detect the demon you’re hunting, why can’t you find him with it?” I asked again. He was silent again and started to sweat. “I…uh…you see…uh…BYE!” And in a flash and a bang he disappeared and caused all of the ponies including me to go blind for a bit. As the flash lifted, many of the ponies were wondering why they were at the tree. I took this as my opportunity to make a break for it. As I examined the trinket that Gabriel gave me, I wondered if this was my chance to also see Rebecca again. Suddenly I heard a voice calling my name. “X! There you are where have you been?” Twilight asked me. I placed the watch on my wrist and hid it in my shirt sleeve. “Oh, you know. Just walking around,” I responded. Twilight formed a smile. “Come with me I want to show you something,” She said. I followed her through town, wondering where she was taking me. I could only assume that it was for a good reason. *** *** *** *** *** [In Heaven, the New Jerusalem] “You’ve gone soft on the boy Gabriel,” Michael stated. “He’s still young. But it worries me that we lost the monster this fast,” He said. Michael laughs as he moved a knight chess piece to capture a pawn. “Well, it shows that you’re slacking off your work,” Michael said. Gabriel then moved his queen to capture a rook. “I may be slacking off…But this is a perfect opportunity to show X that he’s not alone,” Gabriel said. Michael moved his castle to a square and check Gabriel’s king. “Check…But do you think it’s necessary?” Michael asked. “Well see,” Gabriel said as he moved his king elsewhere. “I think that won’t be enough…Check mate!” Michael said as he slammed his knight and pinned Gabriel’s king in place. Gabriel looked at his side and groaned. “Man, I lost to you again this week!” Gabriel exclaimed. Michael laughs and patted his old friend. “If you did most of your time watching man below having this much fun on this game, you would be a professional too,” Michael said. Suddenly an angel fell in the room and saluted to the two. “Sir’s…!” The angel shouted. “What is it?” Gabriel asked. “The demon is on the move. We tracked him to the place where X has been located. And to make matters worse, it took form of a titan,” The angel announced. Gabriel and Michael were shocked. “This is dark news…no demon we have vanquished or gotten rid of has ever took form of a titan before,” Michael said. Gabriel sighed and got up from his seat. “Angle, tell the forces to stand down,” Gabriel ordered. “Uh…sir?” The angel asked and Gabriel repeated his order. “I said, tell the forces to stand down,” Gabriel said again. The angel saluted but was confused as he walked off. “What do you think you’re doing?” Michael asked. “…Putting my faithful friend to the test of course, if he succeeds or if he losses,” Gabriel said. Michael sighed and got up from his seat too. He then walked over to his friend and looked at him in the eye. “What if he fails and you have failed as well?” Michael asked. “…Then I’ll take full responsibility for my sins,” Gabriel stated. As he flew off into the distance he left Michael alone in the room with their finished chess board still up. Michael walked over and decided to clean it up. He then examined the pawns position and saw that if he would’ve moved is jack over to the left side of the board he would’ve gotten checkmate! Michael looked at the pawn and groaned. “Gabriel, you better know what you’re doing,” Michael said. *** *** *** [Back at Equestria in Ponyville] “Why did you bring me here?” I asked her. She drew a wide smile and looked at me. “This grove was the first time me and my new friends hung out together,” She said. I studied her and for a purple pony, she was very pretty. Twilight then turned to me with a beaming look on her face. She even had this slight red blush on her face as she looked at me. “What is it Twilight?” I asked. I could tell her eyes snapped back to reality. “Oh…I…uh…nothing X,” she said. I wondered what she was thinking about. I approached her. I step down to her level and looked her in the eye. “What is it X?” She asked. I looked at her and said the words. “…Thank you Twilight,” I said. She smiled and gave me a hug. My eyes shot open as soon as she held me. I had forgotten what it felt like to be held like this. “You’re welcome X. Oh; by the way, I have a surprise for you. Come on!” She yelled and ran off. I stood there, speechless. No one has ever saved me, or hugged me since…I started to feel an uneasy feeling in my heart. “…Twilight…” I said. Suddenly I felt a stinging jolt on my wrist. I jolted up and looked at the watch that Gabriel had given me. I looked at it and it started to vibrate like mad. I remembered what Gabriel said, if it started to vibrate like this, then that means that the demon was near, and it’s close. I keep my eyes peeled out for this demon and hid the watch in my sleeve again. I looked up and realized Twilight was ahead of me. I picked up my feet and started to run to where she was leading me, little did I know, that the demon I was about to face wasn’t only nasty, but one that shook many into fear…except me.
Attack on PonyvilleI tried my best to catch up with Twilight, but I guess I haven’t been doing track so much that I literally couldn’t keep up with her. Soon, I saw her purple mane flying in the wind and I knew that was her. I ran up a little faster and came to her side, panting like mad. “Hey...*pant*…You’re…*pant*…pretty fast,” I stated. “It takes some time to run like this. Come on, this is the place,” She stated. I looked up and saw what looked like a house that was made of…candy? Why do I have the feeling that I heard this story before in a book? As I entered in the house, I was shocked by what I saw inside. “SUPRISE!!!!” Everypony shouted. I saw that this place was decorated with party strings, balloons, party hats, and food. I was lost with words at this point. “What…what is this?” I asked. It’s a surprise party for you X! Pinkie planned it while you were sleeping,” Twilight said. The pink pony then jump up and down in front of me all energetic like. “DoyoulikethispartyIplaneveryponyapartyandsometimesIevengetgiftsfortheponiesithrowpartiesforbutyouareoneluckyfellowtohaveonebelikethis,” She just went on and on and on. Then she was interrupted by one with a cowgirl hat. “I think that’s enough Pinkie Pie. Hey there fella, remember us?” The pony with the hat asked. “Yeah, you helped me in the forest,” I said. “That’s right, do you know our names?” Twilight asked. I closed my eyes and tried to remember what their names were. “Uh…let’s see. You’re Twilight, that’s Pinkie Pie, Applejack…Rarity was it?” I asked and the white pony nodded. “Uh, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy, right?” I stated. They all cheered in joy. “Wow, you know all of our names like that!” Rainbow Dash said as she patted my back. “So X…what do you think?” Twilight asked me. I was totally lost right now. They even threw me a party. I wanted to cry, but I had removed my tear sacs from my eyes so that was physically impossible. “…Thank you. It’s pretty…pretty great,” I stated. They all jump up in joy and continued to have the party. I was happy that they all did this, but the watch on my wrist wouldn’t stop vibrating! I wanted to have fun, I really do, but I had a job to take care of first. I got and exit out of the building, Twilight noticed me leaving and ran out to catch me. “X, where are you going? Don’t you like the party?” She asked. I sighed. “I do, it’s just that…” I didn’t want to hurt her feelings; I also don’t want to tell her about the deal I made. Then it’ll be like I used her to get what I want. “Listen X…I may don‘t know your life or your story, but you should be happy! I mean, look, all these ponies are taking a liking to you. You should be grateful,” Twilight said. I looked around and saw that they did like me. Suddenly the watch began to beep and go haywire like mad! I took a close look at it and it started to say something. [WARNING…WARNING… demon approaching.] [Class A: 15 feet meter] [Location: thirty degrees latitude, twenty degrees longitude.] It stated. I did the calculations and suddenly knew where that was. “TWILIGHT, START RUNNI NG NOW!” I shouted and grabbed her hoof. As I ran with her a ray of lighting formed in the sky and dark clouds began to take an arrangement around the village. The others saw us running towards them and they had confused looks on their faces. I pulled Twilight and shoved her inside the store. “X…what’s going on? What’s wrong?” Twilight stated to ask in fear. I looked up at the sky and wondered if this was the demon that Gabriel told me about. “Listen, Twilight, you need to stay here and remain hidden. Do not come out,” I said. I then faced towards the clouds and ran back to the position where the ray of lightening will crash. I looked at the ray and prepared for what was to come. But then, as the lightning struck down on the ground it didn’t just show any demon…it was a…a…TITAN!? The titan then roared so loud it felt like my ear drums would’ve popped. I looked up and studied the tall giant. This was the demon Gabriel was trying to get? What the hell? I couldn’t think any faster because the next thing I knew is that it saw me and its hand trying to grab me. I jump out of the way and ran behind him. The titan looked confused and looked around. I took a wooden board and slammed it on its leg. However I wasn’t very bright and the next thing that happened, I received a kick from its foot. I jump and blocked the attack, but was also hit at the same time and was flown half way across the village and crashed into a nearby fountain. Many of the ponies began to panic and tremble as they saw the colossal ting destroying everything in its path. From the store, Twilight and her friends saw the colossal figure. “What in the name of Celestia is that!?” Rainbow shouted. “It’s…HUGE! I never saw a human being so big!” Rarity exclaimed. Twilight’s eyes shot out in fear. “That’s not a human girl’s, that’s a titan!” Twilight announced. “What’s a Titan?” Fluttershy trembled and asked. “In Greek pony mythology, the Titans were a primeval race of powerful deities, they’re only thing on their mind is either to eat, or destroy everything in their path. I only thought they were a myth but, there’s one right there,” Twilight said. “Hey, what’s X doing?” Pinkie asked as she pointed. Twilight looked out from the window and she saw that I was fighting the thing solo. “What the…X!?” Twilight shouted, but I couldn’t even hear her over the sound of a giant thing crushing and stomping everything in its path. I received major injures, but luckily my old wounds have healed in time for me to doge each attack. Every time the titan would try to hit me, I would doge it and use any of the sharp objects, knife, broken glass, broken wooden spikes, all the wrecked stuff it left behind for me to finish the job, but the titan sees me coming and blocks my attack like nothing. “Gah…crap, how can this thing beat me?” I asked myself. The titan came in for another strike at me, but I was able to doge it on time to miss the attack. “What’s X doing? He’s no match for that colossal thing!” Twilight said. “He needs help,” Apple Jack stated. “Yeah, no kidding Apple Jack. But how are we going to bring down that thing?” Rainbow Dash asked. “Well, you can strike at its blind spot on the back of the neck,” Pinkie said. The others looked at her. “What spot?” Rarity asked. “Well duh, you see X’s neck. Well the titans got one too, but that is where it’s weak point is, right at the base of the collar. If you can destroy that point of the neck area, you’ll be fine,” Pinkie said. “How long have you known that?” Twilight asked “For some time,” Pinkie said. Twilight was too focused on me to even be mad at her. She saw how defenseless I was. She knew that she couldn’t just stand there and do nothing. She then got up and ran to my side to assist me. “Twilight, wait!” But it was too late; she was already half way from the store. I saw her coming from afar as I dogged another blow from the titan. “Twilight, what are you doing?” I shouted and dogged this attack again. Twilight jump and shot a ray of magic at the titans neck and caused the thing to scream in pain. I was surprised at what she did, but then the next thing I knew I was trampled on by the purple unicorn. “Ugh…Twilight, how did you do that?” I asked her as I got up and held her. “X, listen to me. The weak point of the titan is on his neck area, about a square inch down from its head. If we can land a strike on that, we might be able to bring it down,” Twilight stated. I smiled at her and stood up. “Well then let’s do this-GAH!” I grunted as I fell on my side due to the new received wounds I got. “You’re hurt badly X…rest here, well handle this,” Twilight said as she hid me behind a building. I lay down on the floor and grabbed her shoulder. “No…I…I have to defeat it. You get everypony out of here. I’ll deal with it,” I said and got up once more. “X, this is no time to be fooling around!’ She said. “You’re right…it’s not. Stand back, this might get ugly!” I shouted. This time I closed my eyes and I threw my arms apart, causing them to be transformed into blades. I smiled as I still had my mutant like powers still in me. Twilight was confused and stared at me with her mouth opened. “X…who…what are you…really?” She stammered. I stared at her and removed my shirt revealing a ribbon like sign on my shoulder. The sign had a lightning bolt on it and the lightning bolt was color gold, and the ribbon was kind of light dark blue. I looked down at her and responded to her question. “Twilight…My name is X, and I’m part of the B.R.P.A., (Blue Ribbon Prototype Army),” I stated. I soon jump up onto the top of the building and stood right behind the titan. I looked at its neck and studied its vital spot. “Twilight, there you are, where’s X?” Apple Jack asked. Twilight pointed up. “He’s there…and he’s…,” Twilight couldn’t speak after I had revealed my true form to her. I walked a couple paces forward and screamed loud to the top of my lungs. “HEY YOU OVER SIZE TITAN FREAK!” I shouted. The titan stopped at where it was and turned to look at me. “What’s he doing?” Rainbow asked as she saw the titan walking towards me. “I am delicious…Come and eat me!” “X, are you crazy?” Rainbow Dash shouted and asked me. “Hey Titan!” I shouted again. “He’s crazy,” Rainbow Dash said. I saw that I got the titans attention and jump off from the roof. The titan charged at me and tried to grab me while I was still in midair, but I was able to doge its attack, and land on its head. I stabbed my left blade into its skull causing it to scream in pain. It began to shake its head left and right, trying to spin me off of his skull but that’s what I just want it to do. As soon as it shook me off, I flew up in the air and target my next attack…on its neck. I closed my eyes and concentrated on my body. As the thunderous rainclouds brought the sound and feel of rain to the fight, I knew that I had to be decisive. This last attack had to finish this, or Ponyville will be no more. I opened my eyes, flew down at his neck and stuck down on the titan, causing a direct hit to the weak point. I then flipped over and landed on my feet. “He did it…X did it!” Twilight shouted in joy. “Yeah, but now we’ve got a colossal titan that’s about to crush us! Everypony run for cover!” Pinkie shouted and all the ponies ran out of the way as the titan soon fell on the ground, crushing a couple of buildings, including me under its body. “Crap!” I shouted and tried to run away, but the titans fall was faster than me and soon I was trampled under a 15 meter* (*49 feet) titan. The beast soon exploded and began to disappear in the heavy rain. Smoke started to form as the titan disintegrated. The others stood their speechless and so did the other ponies that saw the fight. “What just happened?” Rainbow asked as her mouth was dropped open. “I don’t know, but let’s go find X!” Twilight announced. The others were running around the area, and debris, trying to find me. I kept hearing my voice from the wreckage. “X…X…X where are you?” Rainbow Dash shouted. “Come on out X! Where are you hiding?” Pinkie shouted too. I felt numb, by body wouldn’t respond to my actions. Guess that what happens when I used the power of my blood cells too much, but at least I could talk. I called out from a torn down house, under the titans rig cage and groaned. “…*pant*…*grunt*…T….Twilight…” I tried to speak. Twilight then saw something moving and came running to my side. “Oh my gosh X! Hang on, well get you out. Come on girls,” Twilight ordered. “He’s right under the tings bones, man this thing was big!” Rainbow Dash exclaimed as she began to bust some of the ribs off to make a way for me to get out. The others came and started to move and shift the rubble as they came to my body; Twilight held me and picked me up. “…I…I did it…”I said. Twilight smiled. “Yes…yes you did,” Twilight responded. I grunted as I lifted my hand to touch her soft face. “Listen…I…I need to tell you something. I…I was tested to see if I was able to do this,” I stated. Twilight’s eyes were confused. “What do you mean?” She asked. I cough as I tried to speak. “…What I’m…trying…to say…*cough*…I was using you…I was tested…to see if I was…worthy of living here…and I used you to get what I wanted…*cough*…I know I’m not making any sense but…what I’m trying to say is…is that I’m…I’m…ssssss…” I closed my eyes from the wasted energy I used and Twilight started to cry her eyes out. “X…X…don’t go! Please don’t go X! Don’t die, please!” Twilight shouted and tears started to fall from her eyes and drip on my face. Her friends came around me and tilt their heads as they assumed that I was dead. As Twilight held me in her arms, a tall light figure came in. “Don’t fear Twilight Sparkle…he’s alright,” Gabriel said as he approached us. She looked up and studied the other human. “What do you mean…who are you exactly?” Twilight asked. Gabriel laid a hand on me and smiled. “Why, I’m the one who sent him here. He wished for a better life and I gave him what he wanted. But I was also testing him to see if he was worthy enough to live here. And sure enough he has proven himself after thanking you and saving all of you,” Gabriel said. Twilight looked at me and traced her hoofs down my face. “Is he…?” Twilight asked and Gabriel shook his head “No need to fear, he’s just resting. He exaughsted his powers too much and fainted in the process,” He said. “X said he could regenerate…what does he mean by that?” Twilight asked. “Well, that’s something you’re going to ask him when he awakes, and stays at his new home,” Gabriel said. Twilight looked up and Gabriel smiling. "You mean…he passed?” Twilight asked. “Yes, and that’s the good thing about test coming from the Lord, in the end; He rewards his servants with treasures above this world,” He said. “So he can stay?” Pinkie asked. “Yes, but it worries me…that titan was the demon that escape from me. If others can do that, then poor little X here is going to have his hands full,” Gabriel said. Twilight smiled and looked up at the archangel. “Oh, by the way…did you respond to my wish?” Twilight asked. Gabriel turned to her and drew a smile. “Why yes of course…You may not notice it, but X has a thing for you Twilight…he just doesn’t want to admit it,” He said smiling. Twilight was confused. “How does X have a thing for me?” She asked. Gabriel smiled. “…Because you gotten under his skin, and in reality; he’s a lot like you,” He announced. Twilight blushed and looked down. “Oh, and one more thing…ask X what is the B.R.P.A…I’m sure he’ll tell you,” He said. Twilight nodded and as Gabriel turned around, he flicked his fingers and in a flash, he fixed and restored everything that was destroyed and disappeared leaving the ponies confounded and with me lying unconscious in the rain.
A Fight Between BrothersSomething has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.
An Unexpected wish GrantedIt’s been ten years since my family died. Ever since then, my uncle has been treating me like a little witch and I sometimes use that to my advantage. Whenever someone would pick on me, or call me down…that’s the last of them. But back to the story…It was the middle of winter, the year twenty one twenty. I had just finished my job being a delivery guy, delivering…pizzas to my last customers I checked my watch and I was really late for my curfew. Seriously, who orders pizza in eleven o’ clock in the night? I packed up my stuff, closed down the place and drove my way home. As I drove up the drive way I opened up at the garage door and next thing I knew in ten seconds I hear a glass bottle break on the door as it was coming up. “Where were you, you bucking idiot!” An angrily voice shouted from up the house. Once again, I’m harshly greeted by my so called uncle. “I was making a late delivery to some custom-! I was quickly interrupted by another bottle smacking me on the head and breaking on impact. “Don’t give me excuses! No dinner for you, go straight to bed!” He shouted and slammed his window shut. I rubbed my head from where the bottle fell on me and I blew out a long sigh. “It’s going to be one hell of night,” I said to myself and closed the garage door. I walked up to my room and as expected my uncle was fast asleep again. I opened my door and entered the safe solitary confinement of my room. I plopped down on bed thinking about if there was a life of happiness that’s the life I want. I snuggled in my bed and dozed away into sleep. But an uncertainty slips into my mind. I had this feeling like something out there is reaching out to me, calling me. I decided to sleep it all off. After all, I have to get up and three a.m. in the morning to open…sigh what a drag. Somewhere in Equestria In the land of Equestria, there was a small town that held happiness and peace at the same time. In the small town of ponyville, there lived a purple unicorn named Twilight Sparkle. She was walking in to the store because of an order of books had just came in for her. As she was walking along the road, she was greeted by Pinkie Pie. “Hey there Twilight, how are you doing?” Pinkie asked. “Oh just fine Pinkie,” Twilight responded. “I can’t wait for the comets tonight!” Pinkie said as she was bouncing up and down. “Oh yeah, I forgot those were today, I got to study on some facts about those for the princess,” Twilight said. “So did you hear the rumors?” Pinkie asked. Twilight raised an eyebrow. “What rumors?” Twilight asked. “Well, legend has it that if you wish on one of the comets when the celestial comets fall in the sky it can grant the one thing you desire the most! Mine is cupcakes, what’s yours?’ Pinkie asked. “I don’t have a desire for anything. As long as it’s interesting,” Twilight alleged. “Okay…oh and by the way I know you’re lying!” Pinkie said. “What? How dare you say that Pinkie! I’m not lying about anything!” Twilight shouted. “You want a special somepony to be with you huh?” Pinkie said as she winked at her friend. Twilight scoffed and continued to walk. “That’s absurd Pinkie,” Twilight said. “Okaedokie!” Pinkie pie said and continued to pounce up and down while walking with Twilight. As they approached the store, Twilight and Pinkie entered in. The shop owner saw his customers and welcomed them. “Hello there Twilight! Come to pick up your order?’ The shop owner asked. “Yes sir, here you go,” Twilight said as she paid him. The shop owner collected the money and gave Twilight her stuff. “Oh by the way, the wishing comets are on tonight! If you’re lucky, the one that grants your wish is smaller than the rest, but yet is faster than them all. If you find it and close your eyes and make a wish, I’ll happen,” The shop owner said. “Oh, sounds exciting!” Pinkie said. “Okay, I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks for the books,” Twilight said. “You’re welcome Twilight! See ya later!” The shop owner said. As Twilight and Pinkie walked out of the store, Pinkie realized something and gasped. “I almost forgot! I was supposed to babysit the Cake’s babies today! See ya later Twilight!” Pinkie said as she dashed off to Sugar Cube Corners. “See ya Pinkie,” Twilight said. As Twilight walked back to her house, it started to turn night very quickly. Twilight saw that Spike was fast asleep and she decided to continue with her studies. As she wrote down some notes on pre-colonial history, she saw the comets were falling from the sky already. She grabbed her solar studied book and ran towards her window balcony and was amazed at them. She then saw what looked like the smaller comet that flew fast by her eyes, just like what the shop owner had described. Twilight looked left; right, up and down to see if anypony was watching. She then closed her eyes and made her wish. “I wish I had somepony to be with…forever,” She silently said. She then went back into the room and continued her studies. Little did Twilight know, she should’ve watch what she wished for…because she was about to get it. Back at Tokyo Japan I had just delivered my last order of pizza to couple of kids who wanted it for a party. Let me tell you something, it was one hell of an order! As I was driving back to my house, I realized I had a call. It was my uncle. I picked up the phone and answered it. “What the hell do you want old man?” I asked. “Listen…I know I’m the last one to be speaking to you. But I need your help,” He said. I was surprised that my uncle wanted my help. “Uh…Uncle, are you on crack?” I asked. “Listen to me X, This is serious! You know those clients I was supposed to have a meeting with?” he asked. I remembered. “What about them?” I asked. “Well, those little crap heads are planning to shut down my house! I need you to call in Neko and his gang of cronies to get rid of those idiots!” He shouted. I blanked out at the last part, and as expected from my uncle, he sends my friends to do some shit job for him. “…sigh. Fine, I’ll see what I can do,” I said. “Thanks oh, and one other thing…IF YOU DON’T PUT GAS IN THE CAR WHEN YOU’RE DONE, YOU ARE BUCKING DEAD!” He shouted one last ime and hung up the phone. I sighed and rubbed my eyes as I dialed Neko’s number while driving in the road. I placed the phone back on my ear and waited for an answer. “Hello?” A voice asked. “Hey Neko? It’s me X,” U said. Nekobelic laugh over the phone. “Well, well, well, if it isn’t the infamous X! Tell me, how is the old goat?” He asked. “If you’re referring to my uncle…he’s still alive. Listen he needs you and his gang to do another job. I’ll throw in fifty large pizzas and some nip for you guys on the house,” I said. Neko laugh. “…Alrighty then, what does the old face want us to do,” He said and I can tell his voice was a little shaky. “Are you alright?” I asked. “I’m fine! He shouted. “You did it again didn’t you?” I said “It was on sale! Fifty booze for half a dollar!” He shouted. “Just get the job done and get some prescription. I’ll email the address to you,” I said. I type in the address and the location to him on his mobile. He studied the facts and sighed. “Okay, well do it. Have a great night,” He said and hung up. As I drove up on the drive way again, a beer bottle fell on the hood of the car and shattered. I looked out of my window and saw my uncle. “Is it done?” He asked. “I sent him and his buddies the things. Plus some extra stuff. But yeah it’s done,” I said. “Good, that’ll teach those rug buckets to mess with me!” He shouted and slammed the window shut. As I exit out of my car, I looked into the sky and to my surprise there were stars out! I never saw the stars out before like this. I decided to lean back on my car and look into the sky, still dreaming about a peaceful place. As I continued to look, I see one star fall from the sky faster than the other ones. I guess this was my luck day. I closed my eyes and made my wish. “I wish I was somewhere peaceful and quiet to be in with someone,” I said. As I looked at the sky, the dark clouds from the nearby factories covered them back up and that ended my star gazing time. I walked back into my room and decided to kill some time going on my computer. I looked up on my Twitter account and some other sites as well, just to pass the time. I watched a couple of Markiplier and Pewdiepie stuff as my result of being bored. I was about to shut my computer down and go to the local bar, until the strangest thing happens. My computer shuts to a black screen and shows only a white bar on the top of the screen. ‘What the hell?’ I thought to myself as the screen started to freak me out. Then suddenly words start to form on the screen. I watch closely as the words started to form. How are you young man? How are you doing?’ Seriously, that’s the first question it asks me? I sat down and watch as it continued to write more. This was getting real freaky. Just Follow the instructions I’m about to give to you and you’ll get your wish... Okay, now it even knows my name! I respond with my voice to the computer. “Who the hell are you, and what do you want from me?” I asked. At first there was nothing, so I decided to type it, but an answer came back to me again! ...My name is irrelevant, and I don’t want anything from you X, I want to help you...I sat back and asked it again, this time I was dead serious about it. “Help me with what?” I asked again. The computer took some time to answer my question. With you wish of course! I can grant it for you. I can give you a happy life, a peaceful life, a loveable life...This couldn’t be a coincidence could it? I mean sure I wished on a star, but how did this piece of crap know about that? How can you give it to me?” I asked. The computer showed some direction on the screen that I had to follow. First it told me to place my left hand on the screen of the computer, next it told me to sit up straight and keep still, finally it said to pressed the Enter key and it will happen. I didn’t know what do think about this, but if this computer can give me a happy life, then I’m willing to get it. I did everything the computer told me to do and finally, all I had to do was press the Enter key. My heart started to beat rapidly and I started to sweat actually as well. I closed my eyes and prayed to God to keep me safe! I pressed the Enter key and at first there was nothing… I think I missed as step or something? I followed them all. Just as I removed my hand from the screen, a flash of light shot through my computer and flashed on me. I covered my eyes as the light shinned through my room. Then I look at my hand, it was being digitalized! I started to panic as my whole body started to as well! I screamed as the digitalization went all the way to my face and soon there was a nothing but silence in my room. “HEY YOU LITTLE-! Huh, he must’ve left to go eat or something. Fine by me,” My uncle said as he shut the door. But what he didn’t know was that I wasn’t out eating, I was out being teleported to somewhere else, far from him, and far from where I was living. I was being teleported to my so called wish and it was painful enough to find it. “Why…where…are...you…taking…me!” I strained and tried to speak. The computer somehow responded to my answer with a voice this time! “I’m taking you to a place where you have a decision…you can stay where you were, and live a life of death, or live a life of peace and happiness,” The voice said. I felt a strong surge of power flowing into my vines and a burning pain inside my head. “It…hurts…so…bad!” I screamed. “Just relax, where here,” The voice said and soon enough the end of the portal shot me out and sent me flying into an unknown area, where I fell and ram my head into a tree and fainted due to the impact. As the portal closed away, I was laying in the middle of nowhere in the dark, sleeping away from my head encounter by a tree. Being oblivious to what went around me. I grunted in pain as I came to and found myself in some sort of field outside. Where the hell did that thing send me? I got up, and looked at my arm; cut and broken, it was busted up pretty bad. Must’ve happened when the tree caught my fall when I fell out of the portal. “Great…now…grunt…i…got…to…find…a…place…to…rest,” I strained and got up, holding my right arm in pan and limp walking through the floor. I then heard some noises and voices from behind me. Crap, I can’t be caught by anyone; they might think I’m an alien. I sprinted up as fast as I can, still in pain, but nothing compared to what those feds will do if they catch me. I ran so fast that I came to a forest and had no other choice; I went in the dark woods, oblivious about what was going too happened to me in there. In Ponyville As Twilight woke up, she wondered what in the world was that sound. She got up, rubbed her eyes and looked out her window to see. She saw what looked like smoke and some fire in the fields of ponyville. Some of the local ponies around woke up and walked outside to see what had happened. “Spike…Spike…Spike wake up!” Twilight said as she shook him. Spike got up yawned and saw Twilight standing right in front of him. “What is it Twilight? I was sleeping pretty well, He said. “Something is wrong! Everypony is going outside to see what had happened. Something might’ve crashed in the fields of ponyville,” Twilight said. Spike didn’t cared and fell back to sleep. Twilight got up, and ran outside to see what was at the site. Many of the ponies were wondering what had took place, and some of the ponyville police were blocking the entrance. Twilight sees her friends, who were asking what had happened. “Twilight, what are you doing out here?” Apple Jack asked. “I was about to ask everypony the same question,” Twilight said. “They said some crazy blue light shinned out of nowhere and there was a loud boom after that,” Rainbow Dash said. Twilight felt like there was something else wrong. She looked from the corner of her eye and noticed something. “Hey girls…haven’t anypony notice something?” Twilight asked. The others nodded their heads no. “…Look at the floor. Footprints, they must belong to some rare creature,” Twilights she walked up and studied them. “They look like it’s is in some sort of trouble.” Fluttershy said. “How can you tell?” Twilight asked. “Well, look. The way the prints are walking, the poor thing must be in pain, but I never seen any footprints like this before,” Fluttershy said. “You can say that again Fluttershy sweetie. I mean, look, what are they? I never seen that kind of walk pattern before,” Apple Jack said. “Whatever it is, lest follow these prints. Come on girls,” Twilight said. As they followed the prints, they studied the trace of how they were leading, they were awfully weird. They continued to follow them until the front came to a stop. “Oh no…the prints continue on, but it lead straight into…The EverFree Forest!” Twilight said. The others gulped in fear as they saw the dark woods were even more eerie in the night. “Well it’s gone; maybe it’s just dead, good night!” Rainbow Dash said and tried to fly off, but if it wasn’t for Twilight who grabbed her with her magic she would’ve been back at her house. “Oh no Rainbow…the poor creature is alone and hurt in there. We have to find it and bring it back to the Library,” Twilight said. “Uh, I knew you were going to say that,” Rainbow Dash said as she followed the others into the EverFree Forest.
