My Second chance

We got to the club house pretty quickly. We had to walk through a weird path to get to the club house though. The path had tons of low lying branches I had to move with my magic. It gave me plenty of time to practice though. After a while I got bored of using my telekinesis, so I just used my force field spell.

Once at the club house, we met with two of her friends. A snow white unicorn filly named Sweetie bell, and an orange pegasus filly named Scootaloo. They both were exactly the same as the show. I didn’t know what crazy thing the would try today, but I knew it was something dangerous.

Before either could say anything, Applebloom introduced me. “Hey every pony, this ‘ere’s Helix. He was bored so I asked him to come along.”

“If you say so AB. But I don’t want him getting in the way of our crusading.” The way Scootaloo said this in front of me was with the same exact skepticism as her ‘sister’ Rainbow Dash.

“You, little one, are acting exactly like Rainbow Dash. You aren’t giving me a chance to help. If I had time to study your personalities, I could probably tell you what you talents are.”

“Really, you could tell us what our marks are going to be? What we’re doing now just hurts.” Sweetie’s smile was huge. I could tell she wanted nothing more but her mark. I had to tell them I couldn’t guarantee them their future cutie marks.

“Girls, I might be able to tell you. I would have to know a lot more about you before I could make an accurate guess. Even then I wouldn’t be 100% sure if what it is. I don’t even know your names.” Of course I was lying, but I couldn’t tell them what I knew. They’d think I was crazy.

“Oh, I almost forgot. Helix, this is Sweetie Bell, and Scootaloo. They are my best friends. Us three and my cousin, Babs Seed, are the….” I could tell where this was going.

“CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!” Having them all yell so loud next to me left a ringing in my ears. I didn’t think they were so loud.

The white filly came forward fist, eager to get to know who her new friend had brought to their meeting. “Hello sir. Just call just call me Sweetie, I like it a bit more than my full name. I am the little sister to the owner of Carousel Boutique.”

“You mean Rarity? Yeah I met her; she was a little distrustful for some reason.”

“Well, what did you do? She doesn’t do that unless she has a good reason.” Well, she would know how Rarity feels toward new ponies.

“Well, I passed out in Twilights house after being teleported there somehow.” I couldn’t lie to those kids, I like them to much.

They all had an astonished looks, except for Scootaloo.

“Scaring the crap out of Twilight, nice.” I appreciated the sentiment, but I couldn’t tolerate Scootaloo’s choice of words.

“Scootaloo, thank you for the complement, but I would rather you not use that kind of language. I won’t care when you’re older, but right now I don’t think Rainbow Dash would be proud.” I pulled the RD card for good measure.

“What, Rainbow wouldn’t care, would she?” Scootaloo couldn’t tell whether to be worried, or to just not believe me.

“From what I know from talking with her, she would defiantly care.” This time I was dead serious. “But, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be yourself. If you do let one slip, I will forgive you. She would too.”

“Really?” I couldn’t stand the puppy dog eyes she was giving me. Since this was so powerful from Scootaloo, I didn’t want to see it from Fluttershy.

“Of course. She may seem like a really distant pony, but if you just talk to her you would realize she cares deeply for every one of her friends. You will be too.”

“Thank you Helix, I will speak better from now on. Please don’t tell Rainbow.”

“Okay, I won’t tell her. I Pinkie promise. Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.” I finished the promise using the gestures.

“Thank you. So crusaders what are we doing today. I suggest spelunking.” Scootaloo forgot about that pretty quickly.

“I think we should try sword fighting.” Sweetie might have been a little psychotic back then.

“Nah, we should go for gambling.” Apple bloom was just a little naïve.

I had to save them. They were defiantly going to get hurt.

“Girls, none of that is a good idea. I can guarantee those aren’t going to be your cutie marks.”

“How would you know? You don’t know the future.” Scootaloo looked at me with utter contempt. Why do some ponies just don’t like me.

“Look, im going to be honest. I know some of the future. Neither of you will get your cutie marks in those activities. Trying to do those at your age is just a little stupid. You could get really hurt, or worse! If you think about it, the cutie marks of all your friends are things they either stumbled upon randomly, or something they loved to do before they got it.”

“Wow, we didn’t know you cared. And you can see the future! That’s amazing!” Sweetie never thought about it that way.

“Thank ya helix. Ah won’t suggest anything stupid again. Right girls?”

“Yeah!” The other two agreed at the same time.

I saw the sky start to turn orange and decided it was probably time to go back to the library. I thought Twilight was freaking out. Also, I was getting hungry.

“Sorry girls I got to go. I need to make sure twilights not worrying me about me.”

“Okay, see you later Helix.” Again they all spoke at once. It was getting really annoying.

By the time I got back to the library, the sun started to set. I was surprised by how big Ponyvill is. Thankfully, Twi was deep in reading and spike was organizing a big shelf. Unfortunately, right as I walked in my stomach rumble really loud. I made both of them turn to me.
