Chapters POV: Jack
"Today is the day" I thought in my head. I have been preparing for this day my entire life I was finally leaving the castle, My mother Princess Luna as everybody addressed her told me one day when she thought I was prepared to go out and handle the world on my own she would let me know and she just told earlier in the morning right when she was about to go to bed.
POV: Jack 3 hours ago
I awoke from my slumber hoping that today would be as quick as the last one spending each day in here was getting boring I have done everything that I can possibly do in this bloody god forsaken castle I've occasionally gone as far as screwing around with the guards with magic I have learned about thanks to my mother....and well sometimes going into the forbidden archives when no one is looking. I got out of my bed and began to get dressed, since my body was made up of more skin rather than hair or fur I had to wear clothes all the time minding it doesn't really bother me. I put on a black t-shirt and pants and went to my bathroom to look in the mirror, needless to say I looked like shit.
My hair was all over the place, mother tells me I should get it trimmed but for reasons in which I will not mention I prefer not. So I shook my head around a couple of times and surprise I could see my face, Two Eyes with grey almost black irises, a nose right where it belongs, a mouth filled with straight teeth except for I had small fangs placed evenly away from each other. I needed to check one more thing, I took off my shirt and looked in the mirror again and all I see is a walking twig seriously I could pass as anorexic but I don't really mind it either. As I exited the bathroom I heard a knock from my chamber's door. Standing there in elegance was my mother she had a tired yet happy look on her face.
"Son we need to talk" she said as she walked over to my bed and told me to sit next to her. I complied but with a very confused face and responded to her the best way I could
"Did I do something wrong Mother" I asked hoping that she wouldn't say the three letter word that I despised in situations like these.
"No I bring great news, I believe its time" she said, me still looking dumfounded
"Remember along time ago when you asked when you may leave this castle so you can go out and explore the world like you have always wanted, you were so young back then, and so was twilight if I remember correctly you two were the best of friends"
"Yeah when she left to ponyville though I have been nothing but bored of this dreaded castle, still I wish of the day when I can see her" I replied
"Well What if I told you that the day you whished to see her may be today" She said with a smile
My Jaw dropped, was she saying what I think she was saying
"yes I am saying so" I forgot she had the ability to read minds
All I could do was hug her and hugged her I did
"thankyouthankyouthankyou" I said over and over again but as we hugged I felt wetness on my shoulder I looked back to see that she was crying.
needless to say I took the hint
"look Mother I promise to come visit often I am not leaving you forever" as I said that she started bawling out tears, we talked for a bit and straightened out and as soon as I was packed up three hours later I hugged her and aunt Celestia and I was making my way to ponyville.
POV: Twilight
I was currently focused on the task at hand, it was a very important task a task that is demanding and requires a lot of mind power and that task would be....
"Spike its time to reorganize the Library" I began taking the books out with both hands and magic and began reshuffling them into new sections this time the books were going to be placed by genre.
"Twilight do we really need to do this it just seem kind of well...meaningless" He spoke to me, I really didn't listen I was to busy placing the books where they belonged I took out another book one by one until I found a rather large one, it had no title on it so I finished with the other books and when to my study and then began to open the book. The title on the inside of the book read in big bold letters
SCRAPBOOK
I continued to investigate the book when I turned the first page I was shocked and yet very happy inside I saw a younger me and standing to my right was Jack I remember him from a long time ago I haven't seen him in ages every time I wrote him a letter he wouldn't respond I assume he was busy up in canterlot so one day I just stop completely and I guess overtime I just for got about him it was very nostalgic look over all the times we spent together, all the fun we had, and all the arguments still I wish I could see him again somet-
*KNOCK KNOCK*
I turned and got up to the entrance I was guessing one of my friends probably pinkie mostly she has been planning a lot of stuff involving me and my magic. curiously I opened the door before I could get a good look on who the guest was I was brought into a hug unable to move I began kicking around and trying to get out of the grip
"LET GO OF ME" I shouted I didn't know who this is but whoever it was complied and I was brought out of the grasp, I looked up ready to smack whoever did that but once I looked up my hand and my jaw dropped. It was Jack standing there a smile across his face.
"J-J-Jack" I said multiple feelings arose inside of me
"Miss Me" he said with a smirk
I was about to hug him again when a realization came to me.
*SMACK*
I slapped him very hard across the face, what? he deserved it he didn't write back or even tried to communicate with me and any way the only thing he responded with was an
"OW WHAT THE HELL"
Chapter .1 Meetings and Greetings
Well here I am know sitting on my old friend's couch drinking tea and listening to her rant about what she learned while I was in canterlot it was mainly stuff about friendship and the magic of it which I really didn't understand considering I just thought friendship was a bond between two people that dignify how attached they are to each other...or is that love well its all the same to me I see no difference between the two well except for the fact the love usually leads to se-
"ahem" I turned to the right of me to see twilight sitting there arms folded.
"Were you even paying attention too what I was saying the entire time" she gave me a glare that I am all too familiar with
I had a nervous smile on "ummm...no hehe" *SLAP*
Now I reside curled up on the floor holding one side of my face in hoping the burning sensation of being slapped would wear-off soon, I then hear a thumping noise from the stairs and look up to see spike looking at me strangely
"I heard a loud noise and came down here to check it out, ummm are you okay" he asked me still a bit confused about what transpired
"Yeah I'm okay hey do me a favor and get me an Ice pack please and thank you" I said still holding the side of my face
"Quite being a baby Jack you're fine" she said her arms still folded
"But it hurts" I whine
"your such a foal you know that" she said now with a neutral expression
I got back up on the couch with ease "and you love me for it" I reply back with a smirk
The rest of the day went along swimmingly me and her both just caught up on basic stuff such as current events what has happened while we were away from each other until another knock came from the door.
"here let me get it" I said as I walked towards the door once I had opened it the last thing I saw was pink before I was knocked out. I soon awoke later to not only one but know six different colors one purple of course twilight the others were light orange, buttery yellow, two shades of pink was lying atop my chest, another was white, and finally cyan. I closed my eyes and rubbed them once they opened again I saw a pair of baby blue eyes staring directly into my soul.
"umm hello" I said they were a nice color for eyes but them being that close really creped me out.
"HImynameispinkiepieandthesearemyfriendsrarityrainbowdashfluttershyandapplejackwearealltwilightsfrie-" her mouth was clamped shut by an orange hand thank the gods for that.
"Equestrian pinkie not gibberish" a voice said it sounded country...very alluring to me.
I picked myself up the pink mare followed suit and soon I was standing up and I looked to see who I was dealing with
A orange coated mare that had emerald green eyes and a blonde mane and tail brought hand out in front of me and smiled
"Sorry for mah friend sir she gets easily excited mah name is applejack and this here are rarity, rainbow dash, fluttershy, and pinkie pie" as she spoke she pointed to each pony as she said their names.
They were all....umm well how should I put this... different in their own way its funny you would really think that much of the ponies in here would contradict each other but no they all look like one great big family.
I leaned down to twilights ear
"Are these really your friends" I said a bit uncertain this is the type of people she would hang out with, her only reply.
"Surprisingly Yes and you know what they are really really great ones"
Happiness
Everybody wants it no scratch that everybody needs it...well not me. I'm not a very happy person seeing twilight for the first time in years yes that is enough to make me happy for her but for me I feel like a dick for leaving her in the dark and not righting back to her, yes I did get her mail and I did so wanted to respond but being part of the royal family doesn't help my cause for years I have been stuck only able to glace at the pile of letters she has sent me, I never even got a chance to write a single word and as time went by so has my thoughts about her.
So I am asked am I a happy person........no
Later in the day once I have met and shook the hands of twilights friends she offered me a place to sleep of course today I should have registered like my mom said and use the bits I got to buy a house but twilight said other wise and insisted on it. Now here I am lying on my bed heading off into the dreamscape. Once I had fallen asleep I was brought to my mother in one of the dreams she was viewing, as soon as she saw me she smiled and hugged me before turning around and viewing the dream of a young colt.
"I thought I told you to buy your own residence" she said a bit cold
"Trust me mom as soon as I wake and have breakfast I will get my own place twilight just wanted me to stay for the night and I understand I should have said no but-" I was cut off by her hoof on my mouth
"But you did the better thing and I thank you for that" she said now with a warm smile
I smiled back, me and her both did the usual we wandered dreams and more dreams stopping nightmares and keeping the mind of the innocent cleansed, however I entered this one dream, There was nothing inside it except for a filly with a black coat and navy blue mane and tail she was crying of course on instinct I ran over to ask her what the problem was but once she turned around she was covered in blood and had a knife in hand and her screaming turned into sadistic laughing as she came forward. I turned to run but I found that I was now trapped in a room with her and these dark tendril like substances held me from moving.
She crept forward until she was right in front of me and with the sounds of a knife piercing the skin she stabbed me bringing the knife forward and back and with each thrust the knife got deeper and made it more painful. When she was done the tendrils let go of me and I fell to the floor curled up in to a ball blood all over me, I then look up to see a Mare who looked like my mom except armored and as tall and radiant as princess celestia and she spoke in a soft voice before I blacked out "where are your gods now".
I woke up in sweat and I turned my head to see both twilight and spike at one side of my bed their arms are on me indicating that they tried to wake me up.
"WHAT THE BUCK HAPPENED" twilight yelled I replied in three words
"Just a nightmare" Then I fell unconscious
I was inside canterlot castle again specifically an office with a shrink who thinks he can decipher what the mystery dream means. I never like these type of people, hell I don't even like most doctor or scientist because they think they know everything that there is to know but never the less the ponies rely on them. OK back to the topic at hand I was sitting on a red plush couch across from me was a rather lovely mare, she had a blonde almost white coat and a darker yellow mane and tail, her main was tied into a bun and she wore a black suit and skirt. rather lovely if you ask me.
"Have you been abused when you were a colt Mr. Light"
"no"
"Have you been sexually abused"
"no"
"have you experienced anything traumatic during your younger years"
"no"
"Can you say anything but no"
"no"
She sighed in annoyance but she still wrote down everything that I responded to, she flipped a couple of papers on her clip board as if summarizing something
"Well Mr. Light I don't believe I can help you your case is beyond comprehension, you haven't experienced anything the cant relate to your dream and your history is clear from drugs, alcohol or even tobacco, I'm very sorry you may be excused if you like I hear the princesses and six other ponies are waiting for you down the hall".
I got up from my chair, opened my satchel and brought out ten bits and gave it to her
"But sir you were already paid for" she responded with confusion
"Yes but three reasons why you deserve it are one, this meeting wasn't to long two, you weren't a bitch about and complained about your problems more than mine, and finally when life gives you lemons you shut up and take them okay, okay see ya doc" before she could respond I left the building and went down the hall and like she said eight special ponies awaited right in front of me. Pinkie walked up in front of me a look of worry on her face.
"what did she say, are you mad, insane, do we need to lock you in an asylum OHHH please don't let it come to that we were just starting to be friends and I don't think I canbefriendswithsomeoneinsanewellmaybeimeanihavealotofweirdfrien-"again clamped shut by an orange hand and again thank the gods.
"what she means to say is how did it go" applejack asked me a hint of worry in her voice as well.
"she doesn't know" I shrugged my shoulders
"WHAT" everybody in the room shouted "she was the best of the best and she can't figure out what it meant" celestia said.
"Guys I seriously don't know what the big deal is it was just a nightmare" I said in a neutral expression
My mother then walked up to me tears in her eyes
"I just don't want my colt, I need to know for sure when you sleep tonight I will be with you every moment and if you are dragged away again it is not a simple nightmare".
"Trust me mother I will be fine, nothing bad is going to happen"
(Famous last words/ Guess what jack the author feels like being a dick today)
