1000 Years Later

Daniel and Annabelle waited until they did not feel like they were falling anymore which is when they both opened there eyes and saw that the sun was just starting to rise.

"Nothing bad happened.....well its a first considering all my other powers I used had side effects." Daniel said with relief in his voice.

"It does have a side effect brother." Daniel looked at Annabelle with confusion by what she meant.

"What do you mean? What side effect?" Daniel asked

"This." At that Annabelle slapped Daniel in the head but he barely felt it.

"What was that for?" He asked in confusion.

"We could have died you fool, did you not think of that!" Annabelle shouted at Daniel while still shaking from the thought of being at what she thought was death's door "Anyway lets get back in the house, you have done enough for one day." Annabelle said in annoyance as they doth walked to the house and entered it to find that everything was dusty and the house itself looked ruined inside. "What happened here? It was not like this when I left a few moments ago" Daniel agreed with his sister so he asked NOC.

"What Happened here?"

"You have not been here in a long time." He replied and at this Daniel got curious.

"What do you mean by that? We were just her a few minutes ago."

"When you fell into that unstable time energy you travelled 1000 years into the future." Daniel would be shocked but the fact that the only difference to him and his sister is things are dusty, he decided to replace all the things he previously created because with all the time that had passed at least according to NOC would mean that most things would be broken or weak so that's why Daniel decided to replace them as he did not know how to repair them. After he used his power of reality on the house once more everything looked just like it did when he first made it.

Daniel decided to try and lighten up the mood so he thought that the best way to do that was a comedy DVD but he did not know what one to choose. He though for a few minutes until he decided to choose marmaduke so using his powers he created the DVD and put it in the player for both him and Annabelle to watch.

"What are you doing?"

"Well decouse of what happened I can tell you are probably mad a me so I am putting on a comedy to lighten the mood." He said as he turned the tv on and both of them sat and watched the movie. About half a hour into the movie Daniel felt like he was just felling more down as he felt like his heart was having trouble beating and he also found a tear going down his face which he wiped of even though his sister was having a blast watching the film so he decided to not interrupt if for her sake. He began to wonder if he was homesick but he did not think so as he did not think one could feel homesick so soon so it was bothering him he decided to up from the chair and walked over to the shelf and got a book to read but he just sat looking at it as his mind wondered.

"So 1000 years....great that means I have to search the forest again." Daniel thought to himself with a sigh. "Well if I have to I might as well chose a different form and one that might make me feel a bit better......I know my favourite Pokémon." With that he turned to his sister. "Annabelle apparently we time travelled when we fell into that unstable energy, if that is true I am going to take another look around." He said and change his form and started to go off as Annabelle just looked at him as he finished that sentence only to see Daniels new form.

"Big brother why are you a mew?" He turned around.

"Why not? Mew was my favourite Pokémon when I was younger." His sister just looked at him with a confused look and Daniel wondered why until he remembered that all Pokémon can say is there name so he turned back to normal and said his answer again to her before turning back and taking off into the forest once more using his power of space to let him fly.

He was not long into the forest and he still did not feel any better as he often got lost in thought only to snap out of it when his face collided with a tree. Daniel was now staring to get worried as to what might be wrong with him so he decided to ask NOC.

"What is wrong with me?"

"You feel guilty for what you did to you're race. You knew that King N sent that dark sphere to get you but instead got the full planet so you feel guilty knowing that you caused the death of you're own species, that's why you felt worse after watching that movie because it reminds you of your own race and what you did to them." Daniel felt like he was going to break down after he heard that, he knew he had no control over what happened and he was not strong enough to stop it which means he felt like he was not the cause for the death of his race but he also felt like he was as he could have just given himself up and that would have saved them. He did not know what to think now.

"What has happened is in that past, the most I can do is prepare for the future by training.....which reminds me." Daniel turned to a random tree then focused on it and using what little knowledge of time he had he mad the tree de-age then covered his face. After a few seconds nothing happened at all, no explosion or his hair getting set of fire there was no side effects and Daniel actual felt a bit of pride in what he had done. "I will perhaps train more later, for now I need to look for threats." He said as he continued his search and after a few minutes Daniel saw a pack of what seemed like wolfs made of wood and they were looking at him with green eyes which creped him out.

"You're not one of the everfree, what are you?" Daniel saw surprised they could talk and a bit scared but he decided not to show it so he turned back to his human form which he saw startled the wolfs then he answered.

"I am not from here and I don't want to cause any kind of trouble, as for what I am.....well I am a human." As soon as Daniel said that he saw the one wolf turn his head to the side like what a dog would do in confusion.

"A human, you mean the mythical creature that some ponies are interested in?" Once more he was surprised and the fact that his kind were known here made him more curious.

"Ok first off i am a human, that's the name of my species and second what do you mean by mythical?" He asked as the wolfs gather around and talked amongst themselves but Daniel could hear them clearly.

"What should we do."

"He does not know he is supposed to be myth."

"It could be a changeling."

"It was flying without wings or magic so it can't be."

"We don't know what his kind is capable of."

"Lets just leave."

"Bring him to the boss."

These are some of what he heard amongst the talking but they was so much talking he could not make out all of that they said. The chatting stopped and they turned back to him.

"We would like you to come with us, we think our boss would be interested in having a talk with you." The one at the front said but had a bit of fear in his voice, Daniel decided to try and ease that and thought that if he could meet the leader who was in charge of these wolf and make peace with him or her then this forest would be safer for his sister.

"I will gladly meet with you're leader and you have no need to be afraid of me as long as you don't attack me or my sister." He said hoping to ease there fear. "Why would they be scared of me?" Daniel thought but he did not will it for a answer right there so NOC did not answer him.

"You have a sibling, How many of you are there?" One wolf asked but this only made Daniel feel worse as he was reminded of his own race.

"I don't want to talk about that." He said quietly while looking at the ground. The wooden wolf saw this was something he did not like to talk about so they decided to let it drop.

"Ok then, follow us." Daniel just nodded his head and followed them. He followed them for about twenty minutes until they arrived at giant tree which was about 350 feet tall, 200 feet wide and in the centre of a huge crater. Daniel could see that the top of the tree just made it to the surface of the forest from how far he was underground, he continued to move towards the tree and entered it through the front door he looked around it and saw that it had multiple tunnels and ramps that went to different levels of the structure, there was multiple kinds of tree wood like oak, ask and chestnut there were also other wolfs running about and playing with one another, he saw that the height of them was only up to the knee of a normal wolf so Daniel assumed they were cubs. They continued until they entered a large open room about 50 feet tall, 40 in length from left to right and a good 90 or so from the door to the back of the room which looked like it had a huge pile of twigs a leaves, on both side where more wooden wolfs only the were larger than the normal ones and there eyes were red rather than green. They wolfs in front of him suddenly stopped and bowed there heads to the floor.

"King, we found something that you might want to meet." One of the wolfs said and seconds later the pile started to move to and started to pile upwards to reveal it was not leaves and twigs but another wolf only this one was half the size of the room they were in, the leaves it had were around its neck and some on its head the same way a lion has hair around its neck but what was most recognizable about it was its eyes as it was the only one that he has seen which has purple eyes. It looked over to Daniel before looking back to the wolf who spoke.

"Why have you brought a.....what is it?" It asked in a deep but somewhat calming voice and Daniel was a little hurt from being called a it. He was about to tell the alpha who he was when one wolf beat him to it.

"This is a human you greatness, the mythical creature that some ponies are interested in."

"A mythical creature? So another myth has become truth. What is your name human?" From the sound of the voice Daniel assumed it was a he.

"My name is Daniel."

"I am Thag mul, the king of timber wolfs." Daniel made a note of there species name but now he decided to ask why he was brought here.

"If you don't mind me asking, why was I brought here?" After he asked this Thag motioned over to the side of him with his head and when Daniel looked to where he indicated he saw a picture that was carved on one of the walls, it was of a pony or more specifically a winged unicorn or pegacorn that was pure dark with what looked like royal gear as he saw that it was wearing a crown and around the pony was the moon, Daniel looked back at thag but he was still looking at the picture.

"You are another myth that is true, There are many myths but the two that are the most popular are nightmare moon and humans, nightmare moon was real as she was princess Luna before she was corrupted, I know she is real as I saw he banishment when she got sent to the moon by the elements of harmony. Just about all myths and creatures related to them have great power and my rule as a leader is to make sure that my subjects are safe." Daniel now though he understood what he was saying, that all almost myths in this world apparently have lots of power and he was afraid that Daniel might be a threat to him and his subjects. Daniel looked back to the door and saw that there was lots of fully grown wolfs and pups listening to what was being said, he did not want any kind of trouble so he decided to tell him here and now.

"As long as you don't intend to harm me or my sister you have nothing to fear."  At this Thag looked back at Daniel quite quickly when he said this.

"You have a sibling?" Daniel nodded at him. "How much of you're kind is there?" He asked in a calm voice, with the way he seemed to think that just Daniel alone could be a threat it was almost clear that he was trying to hide the fear in his voice but that question just made Daniel not want to talk any further however after a few minutes he decided to tell Thag as he knew that if he did not say then these wolfs might get more scared of him, which Daniel did not mind as they would probably leave him and Annabelle alone but then again they might try to kill them if they think he was too much of a threat to let pass. That and also if what Daniel understood about psychology is true then if he just kept the guilt of his race bottle up it would just get worse.

"There....was about 10 billion back on my planet before it was destroyed. Now its just me and Annabelle." He did not want to mention that it was he who more or less was the cause for its destruction.

"I-I.....sorry for your loss" Thag said to Daniel as he saw he had a face or sadness after he asked about how much of his race there was he also had lived long enough to tell of one was lying but how they speak and he could tell that Daniel truly did not mean any harm. Thag then got a idea that would benefit them both. "I can tell you mean no harm by the way you're voice was when you mentioned you mentioned it. If you don't mind I have something to ask you, could you perhaps help me and my subjects with a problem?"

"It depends on what problem it is, I would do something that involves hurting another for no reason." Daniel said turning his head and looking up to him.

"I need you to try and see if you can find some way to stop the diamond dogs from cutting down more trees as they are getting close to one of our main nests, there main city...well town as its not big enough to be a city is a good bit away from here, if you do this for me I will let all the timberwolfs of the everfree know you and you're sister are considered friendly and you will be free to visit this hold as much as you want." Daniel though for a moment and decided to go with it because if he could befriend some of the inhabitancies of this forest which is apparently called everfree then his sister would be safer, however he had one question to ask.

"Why would the dogs need to cut down you're trees."

"They are making weapons to protect there territory, about 30 years or so ago pony settlers moved into one of their towns and took it, when the dogs returned they did say that it was there land but the royal guards drove them off so now they are doing whatever they can to make and keep improving weapons, I have asked some scouts to go into the tunnels to see what they have been doing. There weaponry is....well, its not very good because the keep trying to make better weapons out of the trees they cut down only for them to fall apart." Daniel decided to help as the situation did not sound too dangerous.

"Ok, I will do it, I just need to know where they are." When Daniel said that Thag looked to the side at one wolf who had very visible scratch marks all over him.

"This here is my finest scout, He will lead you to the tunnels of the diamond dogs." Daniel nodded and started to leave. As soon as the doors closed a pup wolf went up to Thag.

"Sir, is it true that nightmare moon is supposed to return tonight?" The king wolf looked down to the pup.

"Yes it is child, why do you ask?"

"A human has appeared......well two have on the same day that nightmare moon is supposed to return. Is this a bad sign?" The cub asked with worry in its voice, Thag though on this for a moment.

"It might be......or it could be a good sign." He said that last part looking at the door.

As Daniel walked through the forest with the scout wolf they were talking along the way, the wolf asked Daniel what he knew about equestrian and other things like who the princesses are, that they are alicorns, the different kinds of ponies and the history of the land while Daniel got a few pointers on what does happen like how the princess celestia raises the sun and moon, he also learned what has happened in this place like how the lord of chaos called discord was beaten by luna and celestia while they were the wielders of the elements of harmony. Daniel was actually starting to wonder if that was just a silly nickname the ponies had given them as for what he has heard they have been used twice and both of those times they were like weapons which did not sound very harmonious to him. He also learned of a few other creature that lived in this forest and some that lived further away like cockatrices and changelings.

It took a while but eventually Daniel made it to what was apparently diamond dog territory but when he looked at it all he was a large open field of dirt with some dirt hills scattered around. The wolf looked at Daniel who went and approached one of the dirt hills, when he took a few steps he stopped and looked around but there was nothing so here, after a few seconds he started to think this might be a trap that Thag set up for him but just as he was about to start walking back 7 of the dirt hills burst open and Daniel soon found himself surrounded by about 14 large dogs but these ones were not like the kinds of dogs he knew as the were standing like him in a bipedal way, there fur was grey and looked very ruffled the also had quite large claws on the fingers at the end of there arms.

"Well boys looks what we here have." Daniel looked at the dog who said that but he was more interested in why they were talking like that when the wolfs talked normal English.

"What it supposed be? It too tiny for minotaur, not little hair for dog." Daniel saw that one of the dogs was asking that to the one who spoke first and that one who did speak first was wearing armour but it was quite rusty, it was also the only one wearing any kind of armour so Daniel assumed this was there leader.

"Are you the leader of the diamond dogs?" He asked to the one that was wearing the armour.

"Silence you creature are in our territory so you say to us. What is you?" Daniel was getting annoyed with this poor kind of language but he chose to let it pass if he wanted to try and negotiate with them.

"I am Daniel and I am a......human." There reaction was kind of what he was expecting because of the way the timber wolfs acted when he first encountered them as all of them except the one who is perhaps the leader of this small pack seemed to back off a bit but he did see that all of them had a look of surprise and fear. "Just like the wolfs again. That was until there leader who Daniel decided to nickname Rusty for now because of the condition his armour was in started laughing and for this the other dogs and Daniel looked at him in confusion but after a few seconds he stopped laughing and turned to Daniel.

"You think us is stupid? You be no more that joke. Now leave or be taken to boss." The other seemed to agree that Daniel was not a human and just some kind of pony magic trick and waited for him to leave but Daniel stayed where he stood unmoving. "Very well, You no say we did not tell you." At this the dogs attacked him to which he avoided there attacks with ease until he kicked one of the dogs in the face which knocked it out cold and the others along with rust looked in shock.

"I Don't want to fight them, perhaps I can intimidate them." As this thought Daniel held out his hand with the palm facing the dogs and let cosmic energy flow into his palm however he did not fire it, after less that five seconds they all backed away and did not try to attack him so he stopped the flow and lowered his hand back to his side before folding his arms while still looking at them.

"Still think that I am just a trick?" He asked to which they all shacked there heads in the way that indicated No. "Good, now I am here to meet you're leader. Can you please take me to him?" They nodded at Daniel and then rusty stepped forward.

"Ok, follow me." When rusty said that he turned back to his dogs "Fido get frank, the rest of you can got back to whatever you were doing before." With that said he lead Daniel to there leader while one of the dogs went to help the one that Daniel knocked out and the rest disappeared down other dirt tunnels.

As Daniel walked through the tunnels following rusty there were a few more dogs that seemed to start following him when they saw him, while they were walking to the leader of the dogs Daniel saw something that he did not like in the slightest, there was pups but unlike the happy and playful kind that people like so much these one were picking whatever scrap remains they could off of bones and they looked malnourished as he could almost as clear as day see there veins and there legs, arms and chest bones.

"If I can use my reality powers to make a food dispencer for them then they might in return not cut down more trees, but how will they protect there home if they have no weapons to make? I don't want to make undead soldiers to protect them as that might scared them and the cubs more, also there is magic in this world and if games along with movies have taught me something it is that raising the dead is necromancer and that is dark magic which is bad, if I do that I might attract lots of unwanted attention from magic wielders in this world which would also put these dogs in danger. Hold on......NOC you said I can't restore someone to life if they died but can I make new life?"

"Yes and No. You can make artificial life like machines, however you can't make full life like a soul, you could make new life with training but it would not have any kind of free will as if you were to make sentient life then it would have to have a soul and with it being made from nothing rather than just being born naturally then a spirit would have to be forced into it and you can't interfere with the spirit world. However if the spirit of one accepted the lifeless body then it might be a acceptation."

"Ok, so when I am back home after this I will make another room in the house and make a Intelligent A.I and other equipment in that room for it to use, it will make machines that will protect my sister when I am away and will also help me research and understand this world. I will also need something like a failsafe or a EMP if they get out of control. I could also have a few here which would help these dogs keep there home safe but machines alone might not be enough, If I can give the A.I knowledge of things like battle tactics, martial arts, weapon making, engineering and other things then this would no dough keep them safe, I will need to see if I can also get the wolfs and dogs to be allies as Thag might think of me as more of a threat if I help the dogs a lot."

Daniel was too deep into his own mind he did not watch where he was going and tripped up when he approached some stairs and fell face first on them however they were made of dirt so he did not feel a thing but he still cursed himself for not focusing. He and rusty went up the steps of the stairs and he arrived in a larger tunnel than the rest he had seen before and at the back sitting next to and looking at a pile of gems was another dog but Daniel could clearly see that this was there true leader as he had four other dogs with him that almost had full body armour on and he himself was bigger than the normal diamond dog as the top of each of the four guards heads with the helmets on just reached a little under chest height but a little above stomach height, not only that but his jawbone looked like it had the strength to bite right through steel and he could see its muscles clearly not just on the arms but also on its legs, chest and neck, unlike the others to which he could barely see any kind of muscle but were also not as skinny as the pups were. Daniel knew that if he was a normal human that he would be torn apart in less than 5 seconds if he tried to fight this tank of a dog and he did not want to try to see how much he was enhanced by fighting it, he was here to try and settle things peacefully.

Rusty approached him and bowed.

"Alpha, wishes to see you, something does." To this the leader looked away from his gem pile to the one who spoke to him then to Daniel.

"What is creature you bring here?" When he said that Daniel saw that its teeth were slightly larger than the normal dogs and were almost like daggers, he started to wonder if this was a dog or a bear in disguise. Rusty looked back at Daniel then move to the side so he could speak.

"My name is Daniel and I am a human." As he said that he heard chatter behind him and he turn around he saw there was a lot of other dogs there, he thought that they were probably the one who followed him when he was walking through the tunnels.

"A Human? Here? Near the ponies sun celebration?" The leader said but did not seem scared of surprised he seemed to be in thought. This made Daniel feel a bit better about how this meeting might go as this is the first time something has not been fear stricken or has shown worry when he mentioned he was a human.

"Yes I am a human and I am not here to cause trouble, I just what to talk to you about something." To this all dogs stopped chatting and there leader snapped out of this thought.

"We never seen you, you supposed only a pony myth and you want to talk to us, what about?" There leader asked, if Daniel was to be on there friendly side he perhaps should address the dog leader by his real name.

"I am here to ask for a trade Mr......" Daniel stopped there and the dog knew he wanted to know his name.

"I not mr, Name is brago. Alpha Brago to the dogs." Daniel nodded and then continued.

"Brago, I am here on behalf of King Thag of the timber wolfs to ask that you please stop cutting down there forest." After he said this Daniel had a felling of uneasiness as everything went quite for a few seconds.

"Why should we? We have been doing this for years. We need to make weapons to keep our home and pups safe. What could you offer us that would be good enough?" Daniel felt a bit scared now as he prepared to use reality alteration to make a food dispenser for them, he was the condition the pups were in so he hoped this would be accepted. He closed his eyes, snapped his fingers and then opened them again to see a white cylinder machine with a few blue buttons along the said and a big red one on the top at the side. He felt like his world started to spin and almost fell over, he felt sick and like he was about to throw up and he did but he saw it was blood instead of normal puke. This has not happened before so he asked NOC.

"What happened?"

"You made the machine the way you wanted it to be made, it wont run out of its own electricity or meat supply, however even though you know how to alter reality if it defies some laws like the machine you just made does where it wont run out of power or supplies then it needs some more power to make it, you are used to altering reality but not to the extent you just did so it took a toll on you, you will be able to get used to it if you do that kind of reality alteration more often."

Daniel stood back up straight and looked more closely at the machine, the small blue buttons had different pictures of animals on them like a chicken, duck, cow and more. There was 2 slightly bigger blue buttons at the top that said cooked and uncooked, while the red button on the top had nothing on it, the machine was about 5 feet tall and about 25 inches wide. Daniel pressed the pig button then cooked before the red one on the top, after that the centre of the top opened up to reveal cooked bacon and which that he took it and tossed it to one of the dogs at random who looked at it before taking one bit while everyone in the room watched, after the dog tried it he looked at it in amazement.

"It Very Good." From the sound of the voice of the dog Daniel assumed it was female and after she said that she quickly finished it. Daniel turned back to brago.

"I can make more of these, you're dogs will not run out of food if you agree to not cut down anymore tress." He said and prayed to god that brago would accept his deal.

"We cut down tree to make weapons to defend our home, I would agree to this but how would be protect ourselves if the ponies tried to take out land again?" Daniel decided to tell him about his plan.

"You saw how I made this machine, I can make more with different purposes like I can make some to be guards, weapon makers and combat trainers, However until I have adapted to my power enough to make them without a side effect, as you saw after I made this, I will help defend you're home should you need it. Or you could ask Thag if you're dogs and the timber wolfs could be allies." Brago had a look of uncertainty.

"How do we know they wont betray us? We have been cutting down there land for years." Daniel could see what he was meaning and knew just what to say.

"You had a reason didn't you? It was to keep others safe and from what I think there is no shame in that. If you ask he might accept." Brago looked around in the large tunnel he was in and it was full of his subjects and those that could not get because it was too crowded listened in, all eyes and ears of his people were on him awaiting his answer to which he sighed.

"Ok, it worth a try, never has happened, like you until now, it might be good thing." All the dogs seemed to howl cheerfully and Daniel kept his word and made more of those machines, after about the 7th one he made he felt like he could now make then with no side effects so he continued until 100 of then were made thinking that there was now enough to supply them while brago had ordered some of the dogs to spread the machines around the tunnels and feed the pups as soon as they can, Daniel tolled brago how there was a scout wolf that lead him here for this negotiation and that if it was still there then he could get a message to Thag, which this Daniel and brago went to the surface.

When they got to the top Daniel looked around for the wolf but did not see it so he decided to call on it.

"Hey eh.......Crap I did not get his name.....Scar...." After that he saw some bushed shaking and the same wolf appeared and walked up to Daniel.

"How did you know my name?" He asked

"Lucky guess. Anyway can you got back to Thag and tell him to meet me here, Brago the leader of the dogs has come to a agreements and there is something we wish to discuss with him." Scar looked at brago then back at Daniel before nodding and leaving. Once he was out of sight Daniel decided to discus something with brago.

"Hey Brago, Can you do something for me in return of this?"

"Shure, what it?" He asked looking to Daniel and now Daniel saw that brago had a scar going down his left eye but it was not very visible.

"If you consider me a ally then can you let you're dogs know about it and extend it to my sister."

"You have sibling?" He asked in a bit of a surprised voice.

"Yes I have a sister and I want to keep her safe, also if you are going to ask how much of us there is then the answer is only me and my sister." At this brago seemed to be a bit upset about something but before Daniel could ask what it was brago already asked it.

"Why? Why you help us? All other creatures run from us, call we us monsters, brutes, barbarians and so, why you no like them?" Daniel thought that he probable was not upset but actually quite happy he and his subjects were getting help but from what he said just there that all other species called them monsters and this was them getting help from another race so suddenly that he did not know how to take this.

"I have seen enough movies, cartoon and played enough games to know not to judge one by what they are, its there action that show who they are and only they can change that." Daniel realised what he had just said sand face palmed. "Oh great now this world has me talking like someone does in a Disney video or a fanfic."

"Ok, I tell all dogs about you and you're sis, say you are friend." Brago said to Daniel.

"He already considers me a friend when we just met not one hour ago? I wonder how I will die this time. Will the insanity or semi-immortality drive me to do It first, will I kill myself in training with my powers or will this worlds overdose of sugary weirdness drive me to it first..

After a few minutes Daniel heard sounds from the forest and saw that Thag had arrived with around 30 wolfs when he stopped in front of brago he looked to Daniel.

"You have managed to get them to stop cutting out trees?"

"Yes I have, I made them some machines which will not let them run out of food. They did ask me about how they will defend there territory so I though that if you two could agree on a alliance then it would benefit both of you." After he said the both Thag and brago looked at each other and after a few seconds Thag looked back to Daniel.

"He and his dogs were close to destroying one of our main nests and he did not stop even after we had asked him to a lot of times, if you had not stopped it we would have attacked them." Daniel though it might be like this so he decided to make some cartoon speech and hope it worked.

"If you two look at one another you probably see a rival, a foe or something like that where they have no care about you and you have none for them in return, you probably see them and think they know nothing of you and there kind is nothing but greedy and or mean.

But what I see is two leaders who are just like one another, who care about there subjects and what them to be safe and happy almost whatever the cost, when you both met each other here just a few seconds ago you did not just attack one another so do you not think that is a indication that you both are not mean and greedy, he did cut down trees and that was destroying you're territory but he was doing it to make things to protect his dogs so he had a good reason not a bad one, also when I first encountered you're subject before you met me they did not just attack me on sight or without a warning and a reason so yet again another point that shows you are not mean. Lastly you Thag tried to keep reasoning with him so you clearly did not want to fight, the same goes for brago, he could have attacked you're messengers but he didn't because he did not want to fight, just to be read for one if it was inevitable so neither of you wanted to hurt the other. Do you to not see you are quite a lot alike?"

After he finished saying this they turned there view away from Daniel and to each other.

"He is right. I suppose we could try to be allies. What do you think?" Thag asked brago who nodded in return.

"Yes, could help us both, it is change, it might be good thing."  Daniel smile a this, these two were foes but now they have listened to reason and took a chance to be friends he felt like he was about to cry until he remembered his sister.

"Oh crap." Both Thag and brago looked at Daniel when he said that. "I need to get back to my sister, she might be worried about me." He was about to take off until another thing clicked in his mind. "I can't keep my sister in that house forever just to make sure she is safe, its just not right, I need to find a small town, village, settlement or almost anywhere with not a lot of activity that could expose us so he can still go outside and play or go to visit different locations, somewhere for her to live safely but also not isolated." He thought and then turned back to the two leaders. "Do you two know a place like a town or village where there is not a lot of activity and its quite small?" Thag was the first to speak.

"Yes there is a town next to the everfree,  not a lot of thing that happen there but from what my scouts have told me the residences are friendly, at least to anything that is a pony. There is a lot of activity from us near its borders so for you and you're sister it will be much less dangerous." Daniel felt like he could flip there and then with this news.

"Thanks Thag, what the name of the town and where is it?" He asked with a smile.

"It is a few miles north, its called ponyville which is strange consider ville for village is in its name but it has a town centre." He answered to Daniel while pointing north.

"Here take this." Brago said to Daniel and handed him a piece of  paper and when Daniel unfolded it he found it to be a map of the land he saw the location of the ruins and if his hunch was right then those ruins were of the castle he was in when he first arrived here and if the ruin was somehow important enough that it was on a map then there was probably a path to ponyville from it. He decided he would give it a quick check before going back home.

"Thanks brago." Daniel said before folding it back up. "Well I should get going then, bye." With that Daniel change back into a mew, used space alteration to fly and took off towards the ruins which were east.

After a few minutes of flying Daniel arrived at the ruins and he recognised it as the same place he was at when he arrive on this world so he entered it and looked around the place. After a few minutes he was about to go outside and try to find a path to ponyville when he heard what sounded like hoof steps so he went right up to the ceiling and looked down, he saw a pony that had a coat with a colour that he found hard to descried but when he focused his vision he could see that the pony had very visible eyelashes so Daniel assumed it was female, her eyes were a raspberry red, she was wearing some cloths, a hat and had what looked like compass on the side of both of her back legs. Daniel tried to sneak passed her but heading the other way she was looking and managed to get into a room and lost sight of her. He discovered he had entered a kitchen and not he was starting to feel hungry as he did not remember the last time he ate. He though about what he wanted and after that he snapped his fingers which he found was a bit hard to do as a mew and a chocolate cake appeared on the table.

"If this does not give me food poisoning then I will know its safe to make food like this for Annabelle, if it does give me food poisoning then....well I can't die from it so I am fine. He though as he started to eat the cake.

Back out in the hall the daring do was disappointed because she had planed a trip here for quite a while and fought the creatures and other dangers of everfree just to find nothing that could be considered treasure in the castle.

"This search was a waste of time all along." She said as she took out a notepad and pencil from the pocket on her cloths and scored out The sisters old castle. "When I get back home I will find something else to explore." She was about to leave until she heard some books moving in a room behind her so she went back to check on it.

Daniel had just finished eating the cake he made but it was not as good as a normal one, after he finished eating it he looked around the room and found some cook books which he was reading by levitating them and looked through there titles.

"Not what I like but I need to learn to take care of my sister and that cake was not that good, if I can learn how food is properly made rather than just making them from nothing then I might be able to make better dinners for Annabelle." He though as he searched through the books but all of them were of cooking and making meals from plants and or vegetables but  because ponies don't eat meat this was not something unexpected. He looked out the window and saw that the sun had not moved much it was actually still morning. As he continued to look around he found some more cook books, cups, plates and other related things, but just as he was about to continue searching for anything that could be meat related, because if ponies were the dominant species here then they might have small pets that can eat meat like cat or dogs, he remembered he learned how to age and de-age things so he decided to test it out again to make sure he had the hang of it, he saw a old miniature painted statue of a alicorn which he recognised as it was the one he kicked to keep her for finding about him and his sister's true identities, with it in his hands he closed his eyes, felt the flow of time and used his power to reverse the flow, he then opened his eyes and saw that it looked as good as new as the colours were easily distinguishable and the surface of it was now very smooth. "Great, I can control ageing and de-ageing. With that thought he put the statue back down and flew over to one of the books he saw on a shelf that was about making different kinds of soups. Daniel though that he might as well take that as soups would be easy because he could just add something like chicken to it. He tried to remove it with his hands and he did but it fell to the floor so he decided he would pick it up with levitation, which he did and was about leave until he heard what sounded like a pencil on paper behind him and when he looked at the door he saw the same pony he tried to avoid earlier looking between him and her notepad but when she saw he was looking at her she stopped doing whatever she was doing on the notepad and just stood there staring at him and he did the same.

There was a long awkward silence that was soon broke by the pony.

"uh....Hi." Daniel cursed himself for the second time today as he has now been seen but on the plus side he has not been seen in his true form. Daniel charged at the door which opened it and then started to fly away while shouting at the pony to go away but then he remember in this form all that others would hear is him saying mew over and over again but this did not stop him as he tried to find the exit of this castle.

"Wait, please stop I did not mean to scare you." The pony said as he heard she was following him, Daniel did not know if she was being truthful or just saying that but so far today he has met two different species that looked like monsters but at heart they were no different than him, they were intelligent, felt emotions and had desires just like him so he decided to give this pony a chance. He slowed down and turned around to look at her and she looked at him, after a few seconds he started to lower himself towards the ground but stopped just before he touched it as he was now on eye level with her.

Daring doo did not know how to proceed with this as she was experienced in getting treasures and avoiding traps, she also studied animals to make sure she knew what she would be up against when her adventures led her to encounter them but now she was face to face with a animal she has never seen or even read about in the current day or in old myth, not only that but I seemed to be more intelligent than most as she saw it was looking over books back in the castle kitchen and it also seemed to have some quite powerful abilities as it had levitated the books it was looking over, it was flying without wings and it restored a old statue by what looked like time reversal, all without a horn.

"If I does have the power to control time then is that why it has never been seen before, because it keeps traveling? This might be a new species and discovering something like that is better than almost any treasure. I don't know what it can do so I should be careful." With that thought daring decided to see what she could discover about it so she took out a apple from one of her pockets and offered it to the creature.

"Is she trying to be friendly?" Daniel thought as the pony seemed to offer him a apple and if she is trying to be friendly then he decided it would be rude if her refused so he took the apple and took a bit of it, the moment he tasted the juice in it he felt like he had just melted as this was the best apple he had ever tried so he closed his eyes and savoured it.

"Looks like it likes apples, so it is probably a herbivore or omnivore. With the ears, eyes and the way it looks is it supposed to be some kind of cat?" Daring thought as she watched the creature that was starting to eat the apple faster until only the core was left, while it was distracted daring took out a camera that she uses on her adventures and takes a photo of it while it was still eating then quickly puts the camera back into her inner pocket, the camera she was using was made to not flash or make a click sound.

"That was the best apple I have ever had. I should give something in return, but what, I can recreate it and give it back to her but I might taste plane just like the cake did. Flowers can show appreciation right, not roses though, violates? No, I know a sunflower. " With that Daniel levitated the apple core and changed it into a sunflower then handed it to the pony. Who was looking at him in shock when he made the flower from the apple core.

"It can....can alter reality? So that's time and reality, the flying and levitating it did before, so that's space too. What are you?" "What are you?" Daring said looking at the with eyes of wonder but was snapped out of it when she just realised she said that out loud.

"I don't have all day, I need to find ponyville and get back to Annabelle." Daniel thought and with that he flew off one more to find the exit which turned out to be a good bit down the hall and as he opened the door he looked back at the pony and nodded as his way of saying thanks before flying off. Daring was left looking at where the cat like creature flew before it disappeared into the forest, she took out her notepad and looked at her drawing of it still wondering what it was.

Daniel flew across a bridge that looked very unstable and to his delight he found a dirt path at the other side and followed it, a few minutes later he saw it left the trees and he could see ponyville from the entrance he was at. The place looked just right as it was not to crowded and there did not seem to be a lot of activity happening, not to the point of total boredom but to the point that you are highly unlikely to get caught if you are trying to hide.

"Good. Now I know how to get here from the castle, all I have to do is get back home and then bring Annabelle here." With that Daniel was about to head back to get Annabelle but as he turned to his right he saw a rabbit looking at him curiously. They stared at each other for a few seconds and Daniel was about to ignore the rabbit and leave before he heard a voice.

"Angel?.....oh Angel there you are?" He turned to the source of the voice which sounded to be female to see a yellow Pegasus approaching the rabbit from his side so she could not see him but she soon looked in the direction the rabbit called angel was looking after he pointed at Daniel while looking at the mare.

"Again? Congratulations you dingbat you are horrible at trying to stay unnoticed." He cursed himself for the third time this day but was so annoyed at himself he did not notice he said it out loud, when he did he thought it would not make a difference as all he says is mew in this form anyway.

"Why would you call yourself that, you're not a bat. What are you?" The mare asked Daniel

"I know I am not a bat, its a figure of- Wait you can understand me?" He asked when his brain finished processing what she had just said.

"Yes I can, taking care of animals is what I am good at." Her voice was like a mothers voice, soft and very caring but Daniel was freaked out about the fact that this mare knew what he said when he was in this form and that could be a bad thing If he truly is supposed to be a myth also if these ponies were smart enough to use magic, if it required a lot of intelligence, then he now decided to be more careful than before so he was getting out of there now.

"I...have to got." He said and flew back to his house as fast as he could.

"What do you suppose he was angel?" Fluttershy asked angel who just shrugged his arms.

"Ok, no more side tracks." Daniel thought as he continued to go through the forest to his house. When he arrived at his house a few minutes later he change back into his human form and entered the house to find Annabelle asleep on the couch. "Well I might as well do what I said I would." With that he went up the stairs snapped his fingers and a door appeared on a flat wall, he opened it and went down its stair case to a large empty room with the only source of light being a 100 watt bulb on the centre of the celling.

"If what NOC told me was true then I am going to feel like shit after I do this, but if I do it then it should make things easier." With that he snapped his finger once more and machines appeared in the room that had lots of different purposes but Daniel did not know what they were use for so he now got ready for the part he was not looking forward to. He close his eyes and focused on what he wanted to make, a highly advance A.I with the total knowledge of things like weapons, martial arts, engineering, genetics and few other things, It will try to learn more in non violent ways and solves problems itself, but will not betray him or his sister and will always follow there commands, the first command he gave it was to grow and become better then make robots with different functions but not leave the house. With all that ready he snapped his fingers and then he felt his world go dark.

"Brother? Daniel?" He heard as he started to open his eyes to see Annabelle looking at him.

"Annabelle? What happened?" He said as he sat up on the couch.

"You were passed out in a new room next to a talking blue ord that was building things with mechanical arms. But what I mainly want to know is, WHY WERE YOU LYING IN A POOL OF YOU'RE OWN BLOOD!!!" She screamed that last part at him and Daniel looked over himself to find that his grey hoody now looked almost pure red on the top but the blood seemed to stop about half way down his hoodie, he decided to try something so he though about his hoodie being clean and when he looked back down at it he found that it was clean.

"Don't need to snap my finder anymore, good" He started to stand up and looked over to Annabelle. "Sorry about scaring you...again. I discover I don't just need to learn how to control my powers but also I need to watch and adapt to the amount power I put into them. How long was I out?"

"I don't know for sure but I found you about 20 minutes ago. Daniel what did you make those machines for?" Daniel game Annabelle a quick story of what happened to him while he was out scouting.

"So are we moving to a town?" She asked with joy in her voice.

"Yes we are, however you will need a pony disguise so, first off what do you want to have, horn wings or non but be stronger?" He asked her.

"I want wings." He answered happily.

"Ok, what about you're coat, hair, tail and eyes colour?"

"I want to be pink with blue eyes and brown hair and tail, I want to look like a strawberry ice-cream with chocolate."

Daniel just shook his head with a small smile on his face and then put his hand on his sisters forehead and focused, a few seconds later he looked at her and she was just like how she wanted to be but he saw something he did not add, on her back let he saw a image of a pencil.

"NOC what is that?" He asked.

"It's a cutie mark, it symbolises ones special talent." Daniel remember that his sister back at home always loved to draw and did so very greatly but he still felt his stomach twist when he heard the word cutie mark.

Annabelle looked over herself and when she saw her mark she asked the same thing and Daniel gave her the same answer NOC gave him.

"Ok, Now me, if I got a unicorn then I should be able to use my powers without drawing to much attention." He though of what he wanted to look like and started to change form.

When it was done Annabelle looked over he brothers new form, He was a unicorn, His coat was Pure white, his eyes were a dark blue, his hair and tail were black and blue in strips, but what caught his sisters eye was his mark.

"Brother, what does you're mark mean." She asked not taking her eyes off it and when Daniel looked at it he saw what she meant as his mark was half way down his back leg on both sides and almost joined above his tail, the mark was lots of stars and galaxies but each one had a red line that left them and some red lines connected to nothing other that just space but eventual all the red lines came together in the centre of his mark which showed a image of a heart. He remember what NOC said he had merged with.

"The Heart of the universe? Is that what this indicates. Can I change it?" He asked NOC.

"Yes that is what it indicates and you can change it but I will be very difficult as this world runs on magic for everything so it is not only very strong but everywhere here, to much for you're resistance to stop, you can change it if you constantly use you're cosmic power on it to keep it the image you want or you can increase the amount or radiation within you so the magic wont effect you." Daniel decided to just put on some cloths to cover it up, he did not want to do the other options NOC mentioned as it could get him caught if he used his power all the time or he could serious hurt someone with that amount of radiation.

He thought about a hoodie and some trousers and they appeared on him, completely covering his mark. "If ponies can tell what ones talent is by looking at their mark then I don't want them to see mine, It will cause to much attention."

"It means Heart of the Universe." He said answering Annabelle's question but now she was curious of what that was, however Daniel saw she was about to ask something else so he beat her by speaking first. "I will tell you later. Now let go, I can't keep you in that house forever. He said as he altered space around him and Annabelle and flew off to ponyville all the while staying close to the ground. "I will stop this when we are close to the town. We will walk the last little bit." To which Annabelle just nodded.

Canterlot

"It has been 1000 years luna, I can't wait until you return. celestia thought as she was eagerly awaiting her sisters return but she was interuped from her thoughts by a letter that was sent to he from her student twilight sparkle that was a warning about the nightmare moon tale.

Twilight had always caught celestia's attention as she was a lot like her old friend star swirl who was close to alicorn ascension but did not achieve it as he could not fully grasp the understanding that was needed for it to happen. Celestia had a strong feeling that twilight could wield the elements of harmony and purge her sister from the evil that clamed her but twilight would not be able to do it alone, she would need help, she would need friends and perhaps that will help her in the future. Friendship was what stair swirl could not finish his research on and with this event that was going to happen that means that twilight would need friends to help her get through with it. Celestia not had a plan and she hoped it would work.

Looking over the map of equestrian she saw the little town that was holding the sun celebration this year and decided that twilight should head there to check on the preparations and make some friends.

With that in her mind she opened a scroll and started to write.

"So I am sending you to ponyville to check on the preparations and while you are there I have another task for you, make some friends." She finished the letter and sent it to twilight.
