But first, how about an introduction to Harry himself? Harry Potter was an above average boy who had had a rough life, one troubled by many misfortunes, all leading back to a single scar. He really was shy, but fiercely loyal. He was also quirky, yet reserved, and was an all-around intelligent child, one that was abnormally modest, and kind to those that deserved it. He had always been unique, for he was remarkably skinny, with his overly-large, rounded glasses, his frequent use of the strangest colors in his clothing, ranging from the most beautiful maroon to the blandest beige. He had a striking, lightning bolt scar, hidden by his crazy, and unmanageable raven black hair. Harry was immensely famous, and famous for the most terrible of reasons, for he had lived when he should've died, when he should have been killed by the most horrible man in modern Wizard times, one so terrible that most don't even speak of his name, Lord Voldemort. Now, who is this Lord Voldemort you might ask. Well, Voldemort was once called Tom Marvolo Riddle Junior, a decent looking man, with piercing, dark eyes, neat hair, and held an air of importance to him. That was, until he marred his body with the many dark rituals he had performed, ending with his transformation into a dark, twisted, and serpent-like appearance, one that could strike fear into even the most fearless of men, and one that could compel even the most unruly and lazy to go off to do his bidding with careful effort for perfection. This man would go on to plan, torture, and kill, until one day, he heard of a prophecy which told of a boy that would be born, a boy who would grow up, and one day, manage to defeat him. Believing in the prophecy, he decided to go and kill the Potters, who had recently given birth to a boy, one of the two infants that could possibly defeat him. With the help of one of the family's traitorous 'friends', he broke into the home in Godric's Hallow, murdered James Potter, and soon after, giving a rare show of mercy, he offered Lily Potter a chance to live, in exchange for the life of her son, which was quickly rejected, and she sacrificed her own life for her son, who would have surely been murdered by the man. And so, Voldemort casted the killing curse at the infant, said curse being an absolute way for one to be killed, with no ways to prevent the affects. Now, casting this spell turned out to be a terrible mistake, for when the spell touched Harry, his mother's sacrifice protected the boy and rebounded the curse, hitting and 'killing' Voldemort instead, who then reverted into a wraith like form, and waited thirteen years to be reborn, each second being used to plot his war in Britain. From many failed attempts on his life, and many terrible encounters with the dark arts, to love potions and annoying fans, all leading up to now, as we join our hero in his sixth year of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where dark and terrible plans were being put forth into motion once again. Today, so far, was an average day for me, avoiding Snape, trying to talk to Professor Slughorn, but, wandering around the seventh floor corridor in an attempt to follow and find Draco Malfoy was the most important part of the day, which I was currently doing when the...incident happened. "Where is he going?" I question, to no one in particular, since my friends have been away since our 'attack' in the Ministry, most severely injured or...gone...'I can mope about it later! Now focus!' I quickly think, trying to prevent myself from sinking into a 'depression' of sorts. "How can Draco disappear on the map? He must be going somewhere the Marauders didn't know about! Somewhere on the seventh floor..." I wonder, trying to remember my past experiences with said floor, then, it hits me, 'The Room of Requirement! I think He has to be going there!' I exclaim to myself, while basically sprinting back towards the tapestry of Barnabas the Barmy, which is across from where the room usually appears. Just as I near the corner, I begin to hear a loud rumbling and the ground starts to vibrate, almost as if an earthquake was rupturing under Hogwarts itself. "What the devil?" I exclaim, when suddenly, I see a great big flash of sickly gray, which I guess is what caused me to fall steeply, unconscious. Chapter II (Edited)Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.Chapter III (Edited)Author's Note This chapter has been re-written, I do hope you notice, and are okay with my changes, and I wish you all enjoy the rest of the story! Chapter III (Edited) "Why did you hit him Rainbow Dash!" I hear the, if I remember correctly, magenta Unicorn, basically shout at the...cyan Pegasus, formally know as Rainbow Dash, as I start to come to my senses, but, being careful not to show any signs of my awareness. "He's an Alicorn! We never heard his name before that had anything to do with the Princess, so he must be with Nightmare Moon, Twilight!" Rainbow Dash exclaims. 'Well, that's nice... wait, what is an... Alicorn? Some form of royalty to them? And who is this Nightmare Moon, the way they speak of her...him maybe? Its like the way I speak of Voldemort, and if they think I'm with this person...or is it pony now? Anyways that's not good for me is it?' I wonder. "If he was with Nightmare Moon, then he would've attacked us, not walk up and introduce himself to us, as for him being an Alicorn we never heard of, well he must've been transported back to Equestria when Nightmare Moon came back down, which means he was either sent to the moon with her in the first place or he was there before her and he came along for the ride!" Twilight explains. At that point, deciding I had caused enough of a commotion, I step in. "Oh that's a brilliant theory, but it is wrong" I say, jumping off the ground. "Gah!" they all shout jumping backwards "Ello!" I shout "This time don't try to hurt me, I get enough of that at home..." I tell them, while they are all in a state that is obviously still too shocked to say anything, which lasts on longer than one would expect, which, in turn, causes me to give a puzzled look to them. "What?" I ask. "Urm...sorry... for my friend, she thought you were going to hurt us." Twilight apologizes "Oh, no worries, but I think we should be introducing ourselves right about now, eh?" I reply, "Well, okay, my name is Twilight Sparkle." Twillght says. "I'm Rainbow Dash the best flyer in Equestria!" Rainbow Dash exclaims. Oh really? Best flyer? And Equestria? Strange name for a country I internally ponder. "Howdy, mah name is Applejack or AJ fer short." the orange one, or Applejack says. "My name darling, is Rarity and I'm ever so sorry for my tail looking the way it is I had a dreadful incident earlier" the white, posh unicorn, named Rarity, apologizes. 'I guess she is a fashion diva?' I chuckle inwardly. "OH! I've never seen you before does that mean I get to through a 'Welcome to Ponyville' party when we get back to town?! I love throwing parties do you like parties I love parties there could be cupcakes muffins cake cookies streamers and confetti and ballons my name is Pinkie Pie by the way!" the pink one, Pinkie Pie garbles, as I widen my eyes more and more. '...What...' I strangle out in my mind. That's when I noticed that there was a mare Pegasus who was cowering in a nearby bush. I could tell she was rather scared of me, for she was hiding as if someone dangerous were near, and was out to get her. So, seeing she was in distress, I abandoned the 'welcoming committee, and slowly walk up to her, and whisper, as gently, and delicately as I could, "Hello, what is your name? Don't worry, I won't hurt you." "I'm Fluttershy" she whispers. "Well hello, Miss.Fluttershy, my name is Harry Potter," I whisper back, putting on a gentle, and in someways, reassuring smile, which encourages her to wade out the bush. After they had finished preparing to continue their journey, which looked more like they were just taking a break from walking, Twilight trots up to me and asks in a rather polite tone, "Mr.Potter, would you like to come with us to the castle?" 'Castle? Oh, that's what the bridge leads to.' I think to myself, before realizing something extremely important. "Mr.Potter? Don't call me that, it makes me sound old! Just call me Harry! Anyways, why would you ask me? A complete stranger you met in a forest?" I ask. "Well for one, we can't just leave you here, its dangerous, and second, I think you need to explain why you are out here in the first place, and I won't take no for an answer!" She demands. She's bossy like Hermione was in first year! Oh what fun times! I do miss her though...Ron too...damn you Voldemort! "Well if I have no other choice, then lead on Miss.Sparkle." I gloomily say, getting lost in some of my more painful memories. "If I get to call you Harry, then you can call me Twilight! Come on girls, we can't waste anymore time!" She says, spurring the group quickly into motion. Chapter IVSomething has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.Chapter VI Part IAs soon as I come to, I try, oh so hard to open my eyes, closing them quickly each time to avoid causing more pain in my forehead... finally I manage to open my eyes, while the loud ringing in my ears stop. "Next time, try not to hit anything while being teleported!" I growl to myself getting up from the blackened patch of flooring, caused by the teleportation. I flash a quick look around me and see Twilight basically growling at a very dark, very tall, and evil looking... oh what is the word? Ah, mare! An evil looking mare, who might I say, had fangs spiking in her creepy looking, triumphant grin, and was topped with a horn and a set of wings. "Oh, maybe that's why I am so tall, because I'm an Alicorn! Brilliant! That explains a lot!" I shout to myself, as Twilight and, I'm guessing, Nightmare Moon, tear there eyes away from each other's staring 'battle.' "Harry get over here quickly! Before she does anything to you!" Twilight shouts obviously worried "Oh, wait a second Twilight Sparkle, how do you know I would do anything to this 'Harry', after all, he is an Alicorn, and I've never met before now?" Nightmare questions while... licking her lips? Why did sh- oh god, dose she want to- never mind I do not want to know! I think nervously, as my eyes widen. "Harry don't listen to he-" Twilight is drilled to a stop as Nightmare casts a freezing spell. "Enough of that! I only want to talk with him!" she shouts, once again, turning towards me. "Oi! It is not nice to-" I start, before my mouth is clamped shut by Nightmare's magic "Stop! I want you to listen, to what I have to say" she demands, as I nod slowly. "So, Harry... why would you, an Alicorn, would want to join forces with those...lowly ponies? Why join with ones who don't know half of what you have been through, locked away in that cupboard under the stairs, kept in the darkness for so long, all the while, hated for being different? Why join with them, who don't understand your pain, instead of me, Harry? I know your pain, I know that feeling of hatred and anger that has been locked away for so long... that urge to be loved, and cared for, to have someone to talk to... I know those feelings Harry, and all I ask for is for you to join me and you will have all you ever wanted, love, wealth... power?" she asks, punching through all the barriers I hid my emotions in, breaking down all my control over them. I look away, fighting the surge of emotions, hate, anger, sadness, and pain, all the while resisting the urge to cry. She does have a point... they don't know half the stuff I've been through, the pain, hate and anger... I think as my thoughts and morals fight each other, as I get all the more frightened. After thinking and rethinking my thoughts, I make my decision. "I have come up with my decision, and I say..." Author's Note Oh, sorry for the cliffhanger! I just wanted you to think about it for yourself before I write his decision. Should Harry agree and join Nightmare? Or, say no and fight with his inner demons? Just some candy for your thoughts... as always, leave your comments below and tune in next week for Part 2 of Chapter VI of... A Wizard in a Pony World! (Dramatic Exit) Chapter VI Part IIAuthor's Note Prepared to be blown away... FUS RO DAH! ....Um anyways, leave any and all comments below and Bye! ~Will edit if not well liked~ Chapter VI Part II I look away, fighting the surge of emotions, hate, anger, sadness, and pain, all the while resisting the urge to cry. 'She does have a point... they don't know half the stuff I've been through, the pain, hate and anger...' I think as my thoughts and morals fight each other, as I get all the more frightened. After thinking and rethinking my thoughts, I make my decision. "I have come up with my decision, and I say..." <------------------------------------------------------> "I say... no" I choke out, barely able to hold off my emotions, as I look up to see the surprise on Nightmare's face. "What? What!" she shouts, after regaining her composure "What do you mean by no!" she questions angrily. "I said no, you know, n and o put next to each other? No," I reply, gaining more confidence as I go on. "For you see, that would be that right idea, to say no, to resist temptation, I've let my temptation control my actions once, but not anymore, and I say NO! Finite Incantatem!" I shout, pointing my horn at the frozen Twilight, unfreezing her in the process. "Protego!" I shout, raising a shield just before Nightmare try to hit me with a spell in her rage. "I've given you a choice Harry, and you have chosen... the way of PAIN!" she shouts, as she lifts me of the ground and hurls me across the room, breaking a bone or two in the process. "Oh, come on Nightmare! Is that your best? I can do this all day! Stupefy!" I shout, the orange-red stunning spell shooting out of my horn. As our 'duel' continues, I start to use more complex and dangerous spells on her, even ones I never knew the use of. "Sectumsempra!" I shout whipping my head to the side, causing a white light to shoot out of my horn and straight at Nightmare's armor, cutting through that and leaving a small gash in her chest, that bleed profusely, shocking Nightmare and me both. As she healed her wound, I took the time to see if Twilight was alright. Seeing to that she was, I turn back to the duel. Meanwhile "Ah'm not to sure 'bout this Twi" Applejack says, uncertainly. "Ah mean we ain't even sure if them is the Elements" she says. "I am sure of it, we have to be I mean Fluttershy's kindness to the Manticore, Rarity's generosity to the sea dragon, Rainbow Dash's loyalty to us, her friends, Pinkie Pie's ability to laugh at even the scariest of things, your honesty to me when I could've died, Harry's bravery, it all fits!" I exclaim, as a bright flash surprises everyone, even me. As the light clears away, I notice that everyone is wearing a golden necklace, each bearing one's cutie mark, except for me, for I was wearing a golden tiara, with a deep magenta star on it, the same color and shape of my own cutie mark. "That's it! The spark!" I shout turning to Harry, and shouting, "Harry we, are the Elements!" causing an end to the duel. "What?" he and Nightmare shout, effectively ending the duel "We are? Cool, then lets end this!" he exclaims. "Ok! Everyone concentrate!" I say, closing my eyes, soon before they turn an intense white. After we levitated of the ground, and send a Rainbow at Nightmare Moon, as she shouts, and I quote "NOOOOOOOO!" then everything goes black. Chapter VIICrash! "Oi...Dudley, knock it off...can't you see I'm passed out over here?" I mumble slowly stumbling up, finally waking from overexertion, "You know I hate it when...you know what nev-" I grumble, as I open my eyes lazily, before being interrupted. "Harry?" Twilight asks, obviously worried, to which I get nervous myself. "Yes? Is something wrong? Oh please don't tell me I have a wound, Hermione would kill me!" I say nervously, quickly checking myself over. Seeing that I have none, I look up at Twilight with a puzzled look. "What?" I ask. "Do you h-" She starts, before she is interrupted by a very royal sounding, yet excited voice, which causes a slight grin to spread on my face. "Well done my little ponies, I knew you could do it!" said voice says, while the sun rises in the sky, causing a bright clash to blind us. As soon as the light clears away, in front of the window I see another Alicorn, one who looked very regal, with a wavy rainbow mane and tail, as well as a perfect white coat, all underneath a tiara and a gold royal regalia with a large purple gem in the middle. Aren't they rare? So far I know of like, three...well two I'm not exactly one by birth...and why are they bowi- oh...the tiara and regalia, must be the Princess that Twilight was talking about...should I bow? Nah, I don't know how to bow... I ponder, as Twilight and the girls glare at me, well not Pinkie or Fluttershy, but all the others. "What? I don't know how to bow! I barley know how to run without tripping! Even then its bit slow!" I shout, glaring back with twice as much intimidation, making them all cringe. Ha! Look at me now, I'm making ponies frightened of me! This is the most ridicules thing ever! A scrawny kid like me, now Alicorn, is able to make the people...ponies that weren't even frightened of that other Alicorn...w-wait...did she get smaller? And less...evil looking? That is pretty cool...can I control my size? I think to myself, looking over to said Alicorn. "And who is this? A Mister Harry Potter?" Said the Princess, who I completely ignore, walking over to the pony now curled up on the floor. As soon as I reach her, I notice she is shaking, not from the cold, since it was fairly warm in the room, but most likely fright. I get up close to her ear and whisper "'Ello...are you okay?" Side Chapter ISomething has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.Chapter VIII"So...what happens now?" I ask, obviously bored, watching Luna and Tia reviewing what has happened over one thousand years, no seriously, one thousand years. "We should go back to Ponyville" Twilight answers, "And throw a 'Welcome back to Equestria After a Thousand Years' party!" Pinkie practically shouts, hopping up and down in excitement. "Wait...did you say...Ponyville?!" I cry, as I burst out laughing "Oh...Merlin, that's terrible! What's next?! Canterlot?!" I continue, barely keeping from falling to the ground. "Actually that is one of the cities of Equestria, the capital in fact. I grew up there too." Twilight says, matter-of-factly, as I just stare at her as if she had just sprout three heads "Really!? Why Canterlot!? Why is there so many pony puns?!" I shout, clearly confused. "Erm...they've always been named that, what are cities named where you're from?" Twilight asks. "Well, we have Nottingham, London, Manchester, Surrey, Camelot, which is a mythical-ish castle. Um, we have Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Hanover, and a bunch of them while I'm at it too, and hundreds, of thousands more," I list, all the while Twlight's eyes grow larger and larger. "That is impossible! There can't be that many similarities between our worlds!" Twilight exclaims. "That's impossible! How can our cities be named so similarly to humans?! And hundreds of thousands more?! How many po-people could there be!?" She mumbles, confusing me and everyone else in the room. "Did I break her?" I whisper questioningly to Applejack. "Ah' think you did sugarcube," She replies, with a little laughter in her voice. "Oh, good, I still have my charm...anyways, Ponyville! Allons-y! I've always wanted to say that! Thank you France!" I say charging out of the room, before crashing into a wall, full speed, possibly chipping a tooth or two in the process. "Was that here before? And why does it taste like iron?" I say, as I wipe my mouth off with my hoof, staining it with a little blood. "Oh that's why...never mind!" I shout back into the room with the rest of the ponies inside, who, might I say, have been staring at me the whole time "What? Can't a guy want to leave a creepy ruin without people staring at them?" I ask. "Do you even know which way Ponyville is?" the one known as Rarity asks. "Well, it can't be that hard to find, you just follow the yellow brick road right? Or the dirt beaten path, I always get those two mixed up...anyways follow me! And why hasn't anyone slapped me yet!" I shout, confidently walking out of the room, into the hallway, and out of the ruins, leading a large group of confused ponies through the dark forest. Author's Note Well, that's it, sorry for the wait, my laptop had to be sent in for a new hard drive, my other one broke... who new* static electricity can basically destroy a laptop? *Hahahah - a totally planned spelling mistake, you mad yet? Side Chapter II"So let me get this straight, you were jealous of her, because no one payed attention to the night, which you 'made' every night, while all she did was raise an orb of light in the sky and was in turn thought of as a god, while you were thought of as a monster. So you asked her if you could change the day and night cycle every once in awhile, so that people could pay attention to what you did, and not only what she did, but she shot down the idea saying 'it would cause more chaos than it would good,' which, just made you angry at her. You secretly plotted to cause a coup, with major influences from the 'Nightmare,' ending with said entity taking over your body, then cackled evilly about making the night last forever. It fought Celestia, lost, and got you both sent to the moon for a thousand years... am I right?" I ask Luna, as we continue to walk through the Everfree Forest, on the way to Ponyville. Which, by the way, feels like its been at least 3 hours since we began said walk. "You are mostly correct...we are deeply ashamed of our actions," she says, as she looks to the ground, obviously feeling guilty. "Oh come on, its okay, nobody's perfect, even princesses. In the end, lesson learned, right?" I say, sympathetically, thinking of my past mistakes, especially the end of the last school-year, growing more somber every second. "But you're back down here, with your sister, no Nightmare entities to be seen or heard...things can only go up from here on out!" I quietly exclaim, which cheers her up almost instantly. "There we go! Smile! Enjoy life now, don't grumble about the past, for tomorrow is a new day! Or was it today is a new day? Either way, carpe diem!" I cheer, as I, myself, get some more spring in my step. A little while later, I decide to strike up a new conversation "Did I tell you how my species went to the moon?" I ask, as I look over to Luna, just to see her face light up. "You did?" she asks, to which I reply, "Not me personally, but one of the nations on our planet sent twelve men up to the moon. The first man....." I smile as I watch my sister listen to Harry's story of the 'Lunar Landings'. Those two will grow to be great friends...I just hope this will crack his shell and let Harry open up about his past, he deserves to have a little happiness in his life... Author's Note Dun dun duhhhh! Celestia knows about Harry's past?! We don't even know about Harry's past! Join us for the next installment of... uh one second *scrolls up*..... right, the next installment of..... A Wizard In a Pony World! By the Way: This is an alternate universe Harry, portions of his past is canon, but other parts are my creations, so please no Canon-Nazis Chapter IXAuthor's Note I don't know if this is one of my best, I'm trying out a new paragraph form for long bits said by a single pony, tell me what you think of it at the bottom, and whether or not this was a good chapter, I'm a bit confused at this point on the story...so that's it, Bye! Chapter IX "Okay, so I have one last question...what is with the weird names?" I ask, drawing a few confused looks my way. "What? I mean, Twilight Sparkle? Pinkie Pie? Why am I the only one who thinks those names are odd? They are all describing words, and or things, all mashed together into a name! How is that not strange?!" I exclaim, drawing an amused, discrete laugh from Celestia, and a few giggles from the rest of the group. "Foals, a few months after they are born, tend to be named after their noticeable traits and personality. These names often end up hinting at their cutie marks, or, sometimes, represent said cutie mark entirely. This often isn't true when a family passes on a certain part of the name, such as the Apples, though as of late, they tend to have apple based cutie marks." Celestia explains, to which cause a smile to grow on Applejack's face. "The last Apple I remember to not have an apple themed mark was Villard Apple, who sketched things such as the sawmills we use, as well as the early trebuchet. Sadly, nopony saw his sketches for what they where, pieces of pure genius, and scolded him for them, and eventually, he was disowned by the Apple family. I never did hear of him again after that incident, I wonder what became of him. He was a very good friend of mine after all..." Celestia states, as she slowly falls into deep thought. "Well...that's weird...but strangely neat at the same time...oh, do I have a cutie mark?! I can't really check with my clothes on... just give me a second!" I say, as I jump behind a bush on the side of the path, causing the group to stop. "Why do you wear clothes anyway? Its not like we need them, and they look pretty lame too!" Rainbow Dash criticizes, as she floats lazily in the air. "Well...you know how ponies have a coat, or fur, or whatever you call it, Humans don't, so we have to wear clothes to cover our more...private parts, and to keep warm...and I'll have you know, this was pretty decent looking before I came here!" I shout, casting a silent levitation charm on my clothes before jumping out from behind the bush. "What the blazes does this mean!?" I shout, pointing to the strange mark on rump. Everyone just stares before a minute, before Luna, of all people, quickly approaches me and starts to closely examine it. "We believe your mark is very strange, the four-point star, in our time, usually represented unity, and in this case, the use of certain things, or traits, based on the color scheme, while the stars outside of the quad-star could be what is unified, but, we do not understand the color-scheme of any of the stars themselves, which is usually the main identification key used for these forms of Cutie Marks, so it could mean the unity of anything!" Luna hypothesizes, while contemplating my 'Cutie Mark'. "I think I know what the main star represents...see, at my school there were...houses, sort of like separate dorms, in each house you live with a group of people, go to class with them, and eat with them during the school year, while the other houses where full of other people doing the same as you...the thing is, each house favors certain traits." I say, going into my fabled 'Professor' mode. "There were four houses, Gryffindor, which was the home of the brave and noble, Slytherin, the lair of the cunning and ambitious. Then, there was Hufflepuff, the den of the loyal and just, and finally, there was the nest of Ravenclaw, where the witty and intelligent tend to gather." I lecture. going through a couple of motions, which grabs the full attention of everyone, even the Princesses. "Now, this is relevant because each house use certain colors in their crests, a fierce red and gold, to a calming green and silver. A welcoming black and yellow, or a lovely blue and bronze. At the beginning of a student's first year, they are sorted into a house by a hat, the Sorting Hat, which sorts the student by looking at their personality, their dreams, and priorities. If they are cunning, they go to Slytherin, loyal, to Hufflepuff, and so on." I explain. "In the year 1991, there was a boy, a famous boy, who was given a choice. The Sorting Hat gave him a choice between these four houses. You see, this boy was loyal, and witty...he was brave, yet cunning, and these four traits allowed to go whichever way he wanted to, he could've been a Slytherin, but the boys in the house were cruel, so he decided against that house. He could have chosen to be a Ravenclaw, but the feel of that house was full of isolation, something he feared greatly, so, he decided to not join the 'Claws. There was also the choice of being a Hufflepuff, but those in that house were often scorned and mocked, so he swayed to the only house he believed he would be best in, Gryffindor...he would often look back at the decision, and wonder...he would wonder if he had made the right choice, if choosing Gryffindor was the right decision..." I end morosely, thinking back to my first night of Hogwarts. "Harry, who was this boy?" Twilight asks, breaking my reverie. "...Nobody important" I say, a bit coldly. "Come on, it looks like the forest is getting thinner, must be close to this 'Ponyville' now." I say, speeding a bit ahead of the group, away from all of their knowing looks. Chapter V Chapter V "Oh she can't be all that bad, she only kidnapped you're Princess, oh god... sounds like that guy in that game Dudley played once... anyways, I've seen a man kill a teenager without hesitation or regret, and you are calling that bad!" I criticize. Your Princess is in another castle! I laugh to myself. "Well something like this hasn't happened in Equestria, in ages! The worst injuries are caused by accident, never intentional!" Twilight rants. "...Really? Great! Now I won't end up getting in serious trouble every year, and no war! Brilliant!" I exclaim, stepping off the very, very, long bridge So once we get in there, what do we do with these... elements?" I ask. "Umm... I don't really know, the book said the sixth element would reveal themselves from a spark, allowing us to use said elements to banish Nightmare Moon but I don't know what it means by 'spark'" She says nervously. "Brilliant! I not having a decent plan means I get to improvise!" I say, sarcastically, as we walk through the castle entrance "I'll just levitate them off the pedestal and cast a simple flame summoning spell! Easy!" I exclaim, casting the levitation spell. "Um, Harry, I think I should make the spark, the elements are not going to be used to your magic, it might cause a magical crisis!" she explains, a bit to loudly if you ask me. Realizing she had a point, I back off, and say, "Fine, fine o' Mistress Sparkle of Equestian Magic! I will let you cast the spell" as I mock a bow, as she give me a weird look, as if she was torn between laugh and getting angry at what I had said WHY U NO LAUGH... oh god Pinkie is rubbing off on me... I think to myself, internally frightened. "Anyways... Just give me a second to cast the spell..." she says, turning towards the 'Elements.' As she starts to cast a spell a horrifyingly familiar blue mist starts to surround the elements and turn into a... tornado? A tornado, which causes the elements to get cast away. Brilliant... I think to myself just before jumping in. Twilight and I must've had the same idea because I saw a flask of magenta before being knocked out. Author's Note Well, that was great improvising if I do say so myself... and if you don't know that reference in the beginning then you need to get with the classic video games...
Chapter I (Edited)Here is the start of many wondrous adventures for Harry Potter in the land of Equestria. But first, how about an introduction to Harry himself? Harry Potter was an above average boy who had had a rough life, one troubled by many misfortunes, all leading back to a single scar. He really was shy, but fiercely loyal. He was also quirky, yet reserved, and was an all-around intelligent child, one that was abnormally modest, and kind to those that deserved it. He had always been unique, for he was remarkably skinny, with his overly-large, rounded glasses, his frequent use of the strangest colors in his clothing, ranging from the most beautiful maroon to the blandest beige. He had a striking, lightning bolt scar, hidden by his crazy, and unmanageable raven black hair. Harry was immensely famous, and famous for the most terrible of reasons, for he had lived when he should've died, when he should have been killed by the most horrible man in modern Wizard times, one so terrible that most don't even speak of his name, Lord Voldemort. Now, who is this Lord Voldemort you might ask. Well, Voldemort was once called Tom Marvolo Riddle Junior, a decent looking man, with piercing, dark eyes, neat hair, and held an air of importance to him. That was, until he marred his body with the many dark rituals he had performed, ending with his transformation into a dark, twisted, and serpent-like appearance, one that could strike fear into even the most fearless of men, and one that could compel even the most unruly and lazy to go off to do his bidding with careful effort for perfection. This man would go on to plan, torture, and kill, until one day, he heard of a prophecy which told of a boy that would be born, a boy who would grow up, and one day, manage to defeat him. Believing in the prophecy, he decided to go and kill the Potters, who had recently given birth to a boy, one of the two infants that could possibly defeat him. With the help of one of the family's traitorous 'friends', he broke into the home in Godric's Hallow, murdered James Potter, and soon after, giving a rare show of mercy, he offered Lily Potter a chance to live, in exchange for the life of her son, which was quickly rejected, and she sacrificed her own life for her son, who would have surely been murdered by the man. And so, Voldemort casted the killing curse at the infant, said curse being an absolute way for one to be killed, with no ways to prevent the affects. Now, casting this spell turned out to be a terrible mistake, for when the spell touched Harry, his mother's sacrifice protected the boy and rebounded the curse, hitting and 'killing' Voldemort instead, who then reverted into a wraith like form, and waited thirteen years to be reborn, each second being used to plot his war in Britain. From many failed attempts on his life, and many terrible encounters with the dark arts, to love potions and annoying fans, all leading up to now, as we join our hero in his sixth year of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where dark and terrible plans were being put forth into motion once again. Today, so far, was an average day for me, avoiding Snape, trying to talk to Professor Slughorn, but, wandering around the seventh floor corridor in an attempt to follow and find Draco Malfoy was the most important part of the day, which I was currently doing when the...incident happened. "Where is he going?" I question, to no one in particular, since my friends have been away since our 'attack' in the Ministry, most severely injured or...gone...'I can mope about it later! Now focus!' I quickly think, trying to prevent myself from sinking into a 'depression' of sorts. "How can Draco disappear on the map? He must be going somewhere the Marauders didn't know about! Somewhere on the seventh floor..." I wonder, trying to remember my past experiences with said floor, then, it hits me, 'The Room of Requirement! I think He has to be going there!' I exclaim to myself, while basically sprinting back towards the tapestry of Barnabas the Barmy, which is across from where the room usually appears. Just as I near the corner, I begin to hear a loud rumbling and the ground starts to vibrate, almost as if an earthquake was rupturing under Hogwarts itself. "What the devil?" I exclaim, when suddenly, I see a great big flash of sickly gray, which I guess is what caused me to fall steeply, unconscious.
Chapter III (Edited)Author's Note This chapter has been re-written, I do hope you notice, and are okay with my changes, and I wish you all enjoy the rest of the story! Chapter III (Edited) "Why did you hit him Rainbow Dash!" I hear the, if I remember correctly, magenta Unicorn, basically shout at the...cyan Pegasus, formally know as Rainbow Dash, as I start to come to my senses, but, being careful not to show any signs of my awareness. "He's an Alicorn! We never heard his name before that had anything to do with the Princess, so he must be with Nightmare Moon, Twilight!" Rainbow Dash exclaims. 'Well, that's nice... wait, what is an... Alicorn? Some form of royalty to them? And who is this Nightmare Moon, the way they speak of her...him maybe? Its like the way I speak of Voldemort, and if they think I'm with this person...or is it pony now? Anyways that's not good for me is it?' I wonder. "If he was with Nightmare Moon, then he would've attacked us, not walk up and introduce himself to us, as for him being an Alicorn we never heard of, well he must've been transported back to Equestria when Nightmare Moon came back down, which means he was either sent to the moon with her in the first place or he was there before her and he came along for the ride!" Twilight explains. At that point, deciding I had caused enough of a commotion, I step in. "Oh that's a brilliant theory, but it is wrong" I say, jumping off the ground. "Gah!" they all shout jumping backwards "Ello!" I shout "This time don't try to hurt me, I get enough of that at home..." I tell them, while they are all in a state that is obviously still too shocked to say anything, which lasts on longer than one would expect, which, in turn, causes me to give a puzzled look to them. "What?" I ask. "Urm...sorry... for my friend, she thought you were going to hurt us." Twilight apologizes "Oh, no worries, but I think we should be introducing ourselves right about now, eh?" I reply, "Well, okay, my name is Twilight Sparkle." Twillght says. "I'm Rainbow Dash the best flyer in Equestria!" Rainbow Dash exclaims. Oh really? Best flyer? And Equestria? Strange name for a country I internally ponder. "Howdy, mah name is Applejack or AJ fer short." the orange one, or Applejack says. "My name darling, is Rarity and I'm ever so sorry for my tail looking the way it is I had a dreadful incident earlier" the white, posh unicorn, named Rarity, apologizes. 'I guess she is a fashion diva?' I chuckle inwardly. "OH! I've never seen you before does that mean I get to through a 'Welcome to Ponyville' party when we get back to town?! I love throwing parties do you like parties I love parties there could be cupcakes muffins cake cookies streamers and confetti and ballons my name is Pinkie Pie by the way!" the pink one, Pinkie Pie garbles, as I widen my eyes more and more. '...What...' I strangle out in my mind. That's when I noticed that there was a mare Pegasus who was cowering in a nearby bush. I could tell she was rather scared of me, for she was hiding as if someone dangerous were near, and was out to get her. So, seeing she was in distress, I abandoned the 'welcoming committee, and slowly walk up to her, and whisper, as gently, and delicately as I could, "Hello, what is your name? Don't worry, I won't hurt you." "I'm Fluttershy" she whispers. "Well hello, Miss.Fluttershy, my name is Harry Potter," I whisper back, putting on a gentle, and in someways, reassuring smile, which encourages her to wade out the bush. After they had finished preparing to continue their journey, which looked more like they were just taking a break from walking, Twilight trots up to me and asks in a rather polite tone, "Mr.Potter, would you like to come with us to the castle?" 'Castle? Oh, that's what the bridge leads to.' I think to myself, before realizing something extremely important. "Mr.Potter? Don't call me that, it makes me sound old! Just call me Harry! Anyways, why would you ask me? A complete stranger you met in a forest?" I ask. "Well for one, we can't just leave you here, its dangerous, and second, I think you need to explain why you are out here in the first place, and I won't take no for an answer!" She demands. She's bossy like Hermione was in first year! Oh what fun times! I do miss her though...Ron too...damn you Voldemort! "Well if I have no other choice, then lead on Miss.Sparkle." I gloomily say, getting lost in some of my more painful memories. "If I get to call you Harry, then you can call me Twilight! Come on girls, we can't waste anymore time!" She says, spurring the group quickly into motion.
Chapter VI Part IAs soon as I come to, I try, oh so hard to open my eyes, closing them quickly each time to avoid causing more pain in my forehead... finally I manage to open my eyes, while the loud ringing in my ears stop. "Next time, try not to hit anything while being teleported!" I growl to myself getting up from the blackened patch of flooring, caused by the teleportation. I flash a quick look around me and see Twilight basically growling at a very dark, very tall, and evil looking... oh what is the word? Ah, mare! An evil looking mare, who might I say, had fangs spiking in her creepy looking, triumphant grin, and was topped with a horn and a set of wings. "Oh, maybe that's why I am so tall, because I'm an Alicorn! Brilliant! That explains a lot!" I shout to myself, as Twilight and, I'm guessing, Nightmare Moon, tear there eyes away from each other's staring 'battle.' "Harry get over here quickly! Before she does anything to you!" Twilight shouts obviously worried "Oh, wait a second Twilight Sparkle, how do you know I would do anything to this 'Harry', after all, he is an Alicorn, and I've never met before now?" Nightmare questions while... licking her lips? Why did sh- oh god, dose she want to- never mind I do not want to know! I think nervously, as my eyes widen. "Harry don't listen to he-" Twilight is drilled to a stop as Nightmare casts a freezing spell. "Enough of that! I only want to talk with him!" she shouts, once again, turning towards me. "Oi! It is not nice to-" I start, before my mouth is clamped shut by Nightmare's magic "Stop! I want you to listen, to what I have to say" she demands, as I nod slowly. "So, Harry... why would you, an Alicorn, would want to join forces with those...lowly ponies? Why join with ones who don't know half of what you have been through, locked away in that cupboard under the stairs, kept in the darkness for so long, all the while, hated for being different? Why join with them, who don't understand your pain, instead of me, Harry? I know your pain, I know that feeling of hatred and anger that has been locked away for so long... that urge to be loved, and cared for, to have someone to talk to... I know those feelings Harry, and all I ask for is for you to join me and you will have all you ever wanted, love, wealth... power?" she asks, punching through all the barriers I hid my emotions in, breaking down all my control over them. I look away, fighting the surge of emotions, hate, anger, sadness, and pain, all the while resisting the urge to cry. She does have a point... they don't know half the stuff I've been through, the pain, hate and anger... I think as my thoughts and morals fight each other, as I get all the more frightened. After thinking and rethinking my thoughts, I make my decision. "I have come up with my decision, and I say..." Author's Note Oh, sorry for the cliffhanger! I just wanted you to think about it for yourself before I write his decision. Should Harry agree and join Nightmare? Or, say no and fight with his inner demons? Just some candy for your thoughts... as always, leave your comments below and tune in next week for Part 2 of Chapter VI of... A Wizard in a Pony World! (Dramatic Exit)
Chapter VI Part IIAuthor's Note Prepared to be blown away... FUS RO DAH! ....Um anyways, leave any and all comments below and Bye! ~Will edit if not well liked~ Chapter VI Part II I look away, fighting the surge of emotions, hate, anger, sadness, and pain, all the while resisting the urge to cry. 'She does have a point... they don't know half the stuff I've been through, the pain, hate and anger...' I think as my thoughts and morals fight each other, as I get all the more frightened. After thinking and rethinking my thoughts, I make my decision. "I have come up with my decision, and I say..." <------------------------------------------------------> "I say... no" I choke out, barely able to hold off my emotions, as I look up to see the surprise on Nightmare's face. "What? What!" she shouts, after regaining her composure "What do you mean by no!" she questions angrily. "I said no, you know, n and o put next to each other? No," I reply, gaining more confidence as I go on. "For you see, that would be that right idea, to say no, to resist temptation, I've let my temptation control my actions once, but not anymore, and I say NO! Finite Incantatem!" I shout, pointing my horn at the frozen Twilight, unfreezing her in the process. "Protego!" I shout, raising a shield just before Nightmare try to hit me with a spell in her rage. "I've given you a choice Harry, and you have chosen... the way of PAIN!" she shouts, as she lifts me of the ground and hurls me across the room, breaking a bone or two in the process. "Oh, come on Nightmare! Is that your best? I can do this all day! Stupefy!" I shout, the orange-red stunning spell shooting out of my horn. As our 'duel' continues, I start to use more complex and dangerous spells on her, even ones I never knew the use of. "Sectumsempra!" I shout whipping my head to the side, causing a white light to shoot out of my horn and straight at Nightmare's armor, cutting through that and leaving a small gash in her chest, that bleed profusely, shocking Nightmare and me both. As she healed her wound, I took the time to see if Twilight was alright. Seeing to that she was, I turn back to the duel. Meanwhile "Ah'm not to sure 'bout this Twi" Applejack says, uncertainly. "Ah mean we ain't even sure if them is the Elements" she says. "I am sure of it, we have to be I mean Fluttershy's kindness to the Manticore, Rarity's generosity to the sea dragon, Rainbow Dash's loyalty to us, her friends, Pinkie Pie's ability to laugh at even the scariest of things, your honesty to me when I could've died, Harry's bravery, it all fits!" I exclaim, as a bright flash surprises everyone, even me. As the light clears away, I notice that everyone is wearing a golden necklace, each bearing one's cutie mark, except for me, for I was wearing a golden tiara, with a deep magenta star on it, the same color and shape of my own cutie mark. "That's it! The spark!" I shout turning to Harry, and shouting, "Harry we, are the Elements!" causing an end to the duel. "What?" he and Nightmare shout, effectively ending the duel "We are? Cool, then lets end this!" he exclaims. "Ok! Everyone concentrate!" I say, closing my eyes, soon before they turn an intense white. After we levitated of the ground, and send a Rainbow at Nightmare Moon, as she shouts, and I quote "NOOOOOOOO!" then everything goes black.
Chapter VIICrash! "Oi...Dudley, knock it off...can't you see I'm passed out over here?" I mumble slowly stumbling up, finally waking from overexertion, "You know I hate it when...you know what nev-" I grumble, as I open my eyes lazily, before being interrupted. "Harry?" Twilight asks, obviously worried, to which I get nervous myself. "Yes? Is something wrong? Oh please don't tell me I have a wound, Hermione would kill me!" I say nervously, quickly checking myself over. Seeing that I have none, I look up at Twilight with a puzzled look. "What?" I ask. "Do you h-" She starts, before she is interrupted by a very royal sounding, yet excited voice, which causes a slight grin to spread on my face. "Well done my little ponies, I knew you could do it!" said voice says, while the sun rises in the sky, causing a bright clash to blind us. As soon as the light clears away, in front of the window I see another Alicorn, one who looked very regal, with a wavy rainbow mane and tail, as well as a perfect white coat, all underneath a tiara and a gold royal regalia with a large purple gem in the middle. Aren't they rare? So far I know of like, three...well two I'm not exactly one by birth...and why are they bowi- oh...the tiara and regalia, must be the Princess that Twilight was talking about...should I bow? Nah, I don't know how to bow... I ponder, as Twilight and the girls glare at me, well not Pinkie or Fluttershy, but all the others. "What? I don't know how to bow! I barley know how to run without tripping! Even then its bit slow!" I shout, glaring back with twice as much intimidation, making them all cringe. Ha! Look at me now, I'm making ponies frightened of me! This is the most ridicules thing ever! A scrawny kid like me, now Alicorn, is able to make the people...ponies that weren't even frightened of that other Alicorn...w-wait...did she get smaller? And less...evil looking? That is pretty cool...can I control my size? I think to myself, looking over to said Alicorn. "And who is this? A Mister Harry Potter?" Said the Princess, who I completely ignore, walking over to the pony now curled up on the floor. As soon as I reach her, I notice she is shaking, not from the cold, since it was fairly warm in the room, but most likely fright. I get up close to her ear and whisper "'Ello...are you okay?"
Chapter VIII"So...what happens now?" I ask, obviously bored, watching Luna and Tia reviewing what has happened over one thousand years, no seriously, one thousand years. "We should go back to Ponyville" Twilight answers, "And throw a 'Welcome back to Equestria After a Thousand Years' party!" Pinkie practically shouts, hopping up and down in excitement. "Wait...did you say...Ponyville?!" I cry, as I burst out laughing "Oh...Merlin, that's terrible! What's next?! Canterlot?!" I continue, barely keeping from falling to the ground. "Actually that is one of the cities of Equestria, the capital in fact. I grew up there too." Twilight says, matter-of-factly, as I just stare at her as if she had just sprout three heads "Really!? Why Canterlot!? Why is there so many pony puns?!" I shout, clearly confused. "Erm...they've always been named that, what are cities named where you're from?" Twilight asks. "Well, we have Nottingham, London, Manchester, Surrey, Camelot, which is a mythical-ish castle. Um, we have Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Hanover, and a bunch of them while I'm at it too, and hundreds, of thousands more," I list, all the while Twlight's eyes grow larger and larger. "That is impossible! There can't be that many similarities between our worlds!" Twilight exclaims. "That's impossible! How can our cities be named so similarly to humans?! And hundreds of thousands more?! How many po-people could there be!?" She mumbles, confusing me and everyone else in the room. "Did I break her?" I whisper questioningly to Applejack. "Ah' think you did sugarcube," She replies, with a little laughter in her voice. "Oh, good, I still have my charm...anyways, Ponyville! Allons-y! I've always wanted to say that! Thank you France!" I say charging out of the room, before crashing into a wall, full speed, possibly chipping a tooth or two in the process. "Was that here before? And why does it taste like iron?" I say, as I wipe my mouth off with my hoof, staining it with a little blood. "Oh that's why...never mind!" I shout back into the room with the rest of the ponies inside, who, might I say, have been staring at me the whole time "What? Can't a guy want to leave a creepy ruin without people staring at them?" I ask. "Do you even know which way Ponyville is?" the one known as Rarity asks. "Well, it can't be that hard to find, you just follow the yellow brick road right? Or the dirt beaten path, I always get those two mixed up...anyways follow me! And why hasn't anyone slapped me yet!" I shout, confidently walking out of the room, into the hallway, and out of the ruins, leading a large group of confused ponies through the dark forest. Author's Note Well, that's it, sorry for the wait, my laptop had to be sent in for a new hard drive, my other one broke... who new* static electricity can basically destroy a laptop? *Hahahah - a totally planned spelling mistake, you mad yet?
Side Chapter II"So let me get this straight, you were jealous of her, because no one payed attention to the night, which you 'made' every night, while all she did was raise an orb of light in the sky and was in turn thought of as a god, while you were thought of as a monster. So you asked her if you could change the day and night cycle every once in awhile, so that people could pay attention to what you did, and not only what she did, but she shot down the idea saying 'it would cause more chaos than it would good,' which, just made you angry at her. You secretly plotted to cause a coup, with major influences from the 'Nightmare,' ending with said entity taking over your body, then cackled evilly about making the night last forever. It fought Celestia, lost, and got you both sent to the moon for a thousand years... am I right?" I ask Luna, as we continue to walk through the Everfree Forest, on the way to Ponyville. Which, by the way, feels like its been at least 3 hours since we began said walk. "You are mostly correct...we are deeply ashamed of our actions," she says, as she looks to the ground, obviously feeling guilty. "Oh come on, its okay, nobody's perfect, even princesses. In the end, lesson learned, right?" I say, sympathetically, thinking of my past mistakes, especially the end of the last school-year, growing more somber every second. "But you're back down here, with your sister, no Nightmare entities to be seen or heard...things can only go up from here on out!" I quietly exclaim, which cheers her up almost instantly. "There we go! Smile! Enjoy life now, don't grumble about the past, for tomorrow is a new day! Or was it today is a new day? Either way, carpe diem!" I cheer, as I, myself, get some more spring in my step. A little while later, I decide to strike up a new conversation "Did I tell you how my species went to the moon?" I ask, as I look over to Luna, just to see her face light up. "You did?" she asks, to which I reply, "Not me personally, but one of the nations on our planet sent twelve men up to the moon. The first man....." I smile as I watch my sister listen to Harry's story of the 'Lunar Landings'. Those two will grow to be great friends...I just hope this will crack his shell and let Harry open up about his past, he deserves to have a little happiness in his life... Author's Note Dun dun duhhhh! Celestia knows about Harry's past?! We don't even know about Harry's past! Join us for the next installment of... uh one second *scrolls up*..... right, the next installment of..... A Wizard In a Pony World! By the Way: This is an alternate universe Harry, portions of his past is canon, but other parts are my creations, so please no Canon-Nazis
Chapter IXAuthor's Note I don't know if this is one of my best, I'm trying out a new paragraph form for long bits said by a single pony, tell me what you think of it at the bottom, and whether or not this was a good chapter, I'm a bit confused at this point on the story...so that's it, Bye! Chapter IX "Okay, so I have one last question...what is with the weird names?" I ask, drawing a few confused looks my way. "What? I mean, Twilight Sparkle? Pinkie Pie? Why am I the only one who thinks those names are odd? They are all describing words, and or things, all mashed together into a name! How is that not strange?!" I exclaim, drawing an amused, discrete laugh from Celestia, and a few giggles from the rest of the group. "Foals, a few months after they are born, tend to be named after their noticeable traits and personality. These names often end up hinting at their cutie marks, or, sometimes, represent said cutie mark entirely. This often isn't true when a family passes on a certain part of the name, such as the Apples, though as of late, they tend to have apple based cutie marks." Celestia explains, to which cause a smile to grow on Applejack's face. "The last Apple I remember to not have an apple themed mark was Villard Apple, who sketched things such as the sawmills we use, as well as the early trebuchet. Sadly, nopony saw his sketches for what they where, pieces of pure genius, and scolded him for them, and eventually, he was disowned by the Apple family. I never did hear of him again after that incident, I wonder what became of him. He was a very good friend of mine after all..." Celestia states, as she slowly falls into deep thought. "Well...that's weird...but strangely neat at the same time...oh, do I have a cutie mark?! I can't really check with my clothes on... just give me a second!" I say, as I jump behind a bush on the side of the path, causing the group to stop. "Why do you wear clothes anyway? Its not like we need them, and they look pretty lame too!" Rainbow Dash criticizes, as she floats lazily in the air. "Well...you know how ponies have a coat, or fur, or whatever you call it, Humans don't, so we have to wear clothes to cover our more...private parts, and to keep warm...and I'll have you know, this was pretty decent looking before I came here!" I shout, casting a silent levitation charm on my clothes before jumping out from behind the bush. "What the blazes does this mean!?" I shout, pointing to the strange mark on rump. Everyone just stares before a minute, before Luna, of all people, quickly approaches me and starts to closely examine it. "We believe your mark is very strange, the four-point star, in our time, usually represented unity, and in this case, the use of certain things, or traits, based on the color scheme, while the stars outside of the quad-star could be what is unified, but, we do not understand the color-scheme of any of the stars themselves, which is usually the main identification key used for these forms of Cutie Marks, so it could mean the unity of anything!" Luna hypothesizes, while contemplating my 'Cutie Mark'. "I think I know what the main star represents...see, at my school there were...houses, sort of like separate dorms, in each house you live with a group of people, go to class with them, and eat with them during the school year, while the other houses where full of other people doing the same as you...the thing is, each house favors certain traits." I say, going into my fabled 'Professor' mode. "There were four houses, Gryffindor, which was the home of the brave and noble, Slytherin, the lair of the cunning and ambitious. Then, there was Hufflepuff, the den of the loyal and just, and finally, there was the nest of Ravenclaw, where the witty and intelligent tend to gather." I lecture. going through a couple of motions, which grabs the full attention of everyone, even the Princesses. "Now, this is relevant because each house use certain colors in their crests, a fierce red and gold, to a calming green and silver. A welcoming black and yellow, or a lovely blue and bronze. At the beginning of a student's first year, they are sorted into a house by a hat, the Sorting Hat, which sorts the student by looking at their personality, their dreams, and priorities. If they are cunning, they go to Slytherin, loyal, to Hufflepuff, and so on." I explain. "In the year 1991, there was a boy, a famous boy, who was given a choice. The Sorting Hat gave him a choice between these four houses. You see, this boy was loyal, and witty...he was brave, yet cunning, and these four traits allowed to go whichever way he wanted to, he could've been a Slytherin, but the boys in the house were cruel, so he decided against that house. He could have chosen to be a Ravenclaw, but the feel of that house was full of isolation, something he feared greatly, so, he decided to not join the 'Claws. There was also the choice of being a Hufflepuff, but those in that house were often scorned and mocked, so he swayed to the only house he believed he would be best in, Gryffindor...he would often look back at the decision, and wonder...he would wonder if he had made the right choice, if choosing Gryffindor was the right decision..." I end morosely, thinking back to my first night of Hogwarts. "Harry, who was this boy?" Twilight asks, breaking my reverie. "...Nobody important" I say, a bit coldly. "Come on, it looks like the forest is getting thinner, must be close to this 'Ponyville' now." I say, speeding a bit ahead of the group, away from all of their knowing looks.
Chapter V Chapter V "Oh she can't be all that bad, she only kidnapped you're Princess, oh god... sounds like that guy in that game Dudley played once... anyways, I've seen a man kill a teenager without hesitation or regret, and you are calling that bad!" I criticize. Your Princess is in another castle! I laugh to myself. "Well something like this hasn't happened in Equestria, in ages! The worst injuries are caused by accident, never intentional!" Twilight rants. "...Really? Great! Now I won't end up getting in serious trouble every year, and no war! Brilliant!" I exclaim, stepping off the very, very, long bridge So once we get in there, what do we do with these... elements?" I ask. "Umm... I don't really know, the book said the sixth element would reveal themselves from a spark, allowing us to use said elements to banish Nightmare Moon but I don't know what it means by 'spark'" She says nervously. "Brilliant! I not having a decent plan means I get to improvise!" I say, sarcastically, as we walk through the castle entrance "I'll just levitate them off the pedestal and cast a simple flame summoning spell! Easy!" I exclaim, casting the levitation spell. "Um, Harry, I think I should make the spark, the elements are not going to be used to your magic, it might cause a magical crisis!" she explains, a bit to loudly if you ask me. Realizing she had a point, I back off, and say, "Fine, fine o' Mistress Sparkle of Equestian Magic! I will let you cast the spell" as I mock a bow, as she give me a weird look, as if she was torn between laugh and getting angry at what I had said WHY U NO LAUGH... oh god Pinkie is rubbing off on me... I think to myself, internally frightened. "Anyways... Just give me a second to cast the spell..." she says, turning towards the 'Elements.' As she starts to cast a spell a horrifyingly familiar blue mist starts to surround the elements and turn into a... tornado? A tornado, which causes the elements to get cast away. Brilliant... I think to myself just before jumping in. Twilight and I must've had the same idea because I saw a flask of magenta before being knocked out. Author's Note Well, that was great improvising if I do say so myself... and if you don't know that reference in the beginning then you need to get with the classic video games...
