Previous ChapterNext Chapter

"Why the hell have you brought me here Aj?" Aj has asked me to come with her and the CMC. I knew it was for the clubhouse but I like to ask the obvious. Its fun.

"Because, I think you'll be a big help for the CMC."

"You have a point. But how can I help them fix a fucking clubhouse?" She grimaces.

"Ah've seen you heal ponies from debilitating injuries. And why do you have those weird words?"

"Which ones?" *I think i'm gonna have some fun now! GOOD! Finally some fun.*

"The ones that sound like some profanities we have."

"Ooooh, those words. Well, my answer is: I don't give a single fuck."

"Ugh, at least you don't do it around foals."

"I may have less morals than you ponies, and my own race. Doesn't mean that I don't have inhibitions. Even though my inhibitions are at an all-time-low."

"What was that last part."

"I'll show you later. Right now I have to help some fillies to help out." The CMC have already seen the house.

"What's this?"

"Aj's old club house." They jump and turned around to look at me.

"Jeez! Warn us next time you do that!"

"And how am I supposed to do that?" They go silent. "Thought so anyway, this is supposed to be your official place of meeting for your secret society." Their collective jaws drop. "Yeah I know, the things looks rotten as tartarus."

"HEY!"

"But I think I can get this fixed up with my magic."

"REALLY!?" They have already started yelling shit unison, fuuuuuck.

"Yes, yes... And I think it would do everypony good if you would stop yelling." I point a thumb to behind me. The three look behind me to see Aj covering her ears in pain. They blush and giggle nervously. "Anyway, lets see if I can use my magic to fix this piece of shit."

"What was that last part?"

"Nothing you should learn, ever." I walk up to the base of the tree house, put my hands on some support beams, and chanel my magic.

"What are you doing?"

"Trying to fix the thing."

"Wouldn't it be better if you went up there?" I glare at her.

"I'm made of gold, why do you think i'm standing here? On the ground?"

"Ah don't get it."

"Gold is one of the heaviest metals." They 'Ooooh...' in response.

"That makes sense." I grumble and focus back to the clubhouse. I close my eyes and a picture of the old clubhouse.

*Alright magic, lets see if we can do anything to this.... thing.* I channel my magic to repair the thing. After some time of nothing happening, the house began to look newer. The walls went straight and grew brighter, the platform thickened to hold the weight of the CMC and possibly other ponies, the roof and walkway straightened out. All it needs is a good paint job. When i'm done I remove my hands and take a good look at the clubhouse, then to Aj. Her face says 'I told you so'. I flip her off.

"It seems I can fix anything, I need to experiment." The CMC *gasp* and 'YAY!' in unison. I wonder when it'll get really annoying. Aj walks up to me.

"You're too useful for your own good."

"What in the hell do you mean by that?" I look to her with a hard glare with my eyes tinted red. She flinches and responds quickly.

"I-i meant that-" I snort and my eyes tint a playful blue.

“Ha! I’m only messin’ with ya Aj.” She relaxes a bit. “But I think you have a point, I AM too useful for my own good, I didn’t even know I can do that.” I wave a hand over to the newly renovated clubhouse, or the ‘Cutie MArk Crusader Headquarters’. “Anyway, if i’m not needed anymore, i’ll be on my way.”

“Alright Streak, but where?”

“I have absolutely no idea! Bye!”

“Oookay. See ya ‘round Streak.” And with that I make my to Ponyville. After being lost in the orchard for ten minutes…


I’ve walking around Ponyville for while, I already went home and entertained myself as long as I could. It took four hours of playing Robocraft (insert link). If you don’t know what that game is; I pity you. Anyway, when I decided to walk around for a while I noticed it was the afternoon. Aj came by early to take me with the CMC to the clubhouse, the fucking farm pony should know not to wake a sleeping beast, or in this case a powered down robot beast. Anywho, as I was minding my own buisness I get tackled by a turquoise blurr. Well, more like it hit me at top speed and bounced off me. I look down and I see Lyra, the fucking Anthropologist. Hopefully she really isn’t one. A few seconds of wall eyed....ness she recovers.

“Ugh… *gasp* See Bonnie I TOLD YOU! They exist!” God. Fucking. Dammit. She is one.

“You mind telling me who you are and why you straight up launched at me?”

“*gasp* It can talk! IT CAN TALK!”

*I don’t need this shit. I don’t need to be treated like a fucking animal.* I turn around a begin to walk away.

“WAIT!!” I groan and turn back around.

“What is it?” I ask in a spanish tone. Lyra’s ears fold backward.

“S-sorry a-about that, I got a little excited.” I deapan.

“Overwhelmed with joy is more like it.”

“Ehehee...” She digs a hoof into the ground a little. By this time Sweetie Drops trotted up to us.

“Sorry about that, Lyra here is obsessed with humans, and she can be over reactive.”

“Really? I didn't notice.” She goes silent. “Anyway the names Golden Streak.” Both of their eyes widen a little.

“YOU’RE Golden Streak!? The same Golden Streak that saved Ponyville!?” They yell that in unison, what is it with ponies and yelling shit at the same time?

“Yeah, pretty much.” I love being nonchalant when it comes to shit like this, fucking hilarious to see there faces.

“But, that’s impossible! We were told you were a pony.”

“Oh yeah, let me show you.” I poof to pony form, one the smoke clears I see Lyra and Bon Bon staring at me in disbelief. And if you don’t know Bon Bon is Sweetie Drop’s nickname. Anyway.

“Wow, a human that can turn into a pony! I KNEW humans existed!”

“I would appreciate it if I wasn’t referred to as a fucking animal. And i’m technically a human.” Lyra’s ears fold back in embarrassment. But perk up seconds later.

“What do you mean by ‘technically’?”

“Let me show you.” I poof back to human form and show them a trick I learned the other day. You know when Schwarzenegger in Terminator rips off the skin on his arm? If you’ve seen the movie? Yeah, well, I can do the same thing with my face, except for me it’s a face plate. And when I take it off, it shows all the bells and whistles. Leaving my eyes, eyebrows, and mouth behind. I am told it looks fucking creepy. When I show them my ‘trick’ they blanch a little.

“See told ya, although I was originally a human.” I say as I put my face back on, huh… That sounds sick if you think about it. After a solid minute of silence. Lyra speaks up.

“Wait, you were a real human?” I nod. “Awesome! That still counts! I told you Bonnie!” She then does a little dance that what I assume is saying ‘I fucking told you so’. While Lyra’s still dancing, me and ‘Bonnie’ look at each other.

“Friends huh?” We say at the same time while snickering.

“So, you and that one are Lyra Heartstrings and Sweetie Drops, am I correct.” Lyra stops dancing and looks at me, so does Bon Bon. It’s easier to write Bon Bon.

“How do you know that?”

“And how do you my full name?” I smile

“Because I know a lot about things. Plus where I come from you are well known, even considered celebrities.”

“Really?”

“How are we supposed to believe that?” I frown.

“I’m a completely new being to walk amongst you, I saved Ponyville once, did a golden version of a sonic boom, have magical powers beyond Celestia, and just fucking turned into a pony and back to human. Basically i’m a fucking alien. Why should there not be a reason to believe me?” They flinch at my colorful vocabulary.

“Okay, you have a point.”

“And wouldn't it be better without those harsh sounding words, they sound a lot like ones we have.” I think for a second.

“Nah. Those ‘words’ are what make me, me.” It’s true, back on earth people who knew me on some level said it sounded like I was replace by someone else when I don’t fucking swear, and that habit grew on me. One that i'm proud of.

"Do you do that around foals?" Random ass question, I know.

"Nah. I may seem like I don't give a fuck about anything, but I have some inhibitions. Now, why the hell did you try to tackle me? I can understand the screaming 'Human!', but straight up tackling me?" Lyra's ears fold back.

"I-i.... I wanted you to touch me with your hands."

"Yeah, that didn't sound weird at all."

"How did you hear that!? You don't even have ears!" I tap the sides of my head.

"Technology my people had."

"Really?" I nod.

"Yeah pretty much."

"Awesome."

"Can we go now? I don't to be late."

"Late for what?"

"Octavia's cello practice."

"Oooh! Her! And where would that be?" They look at me questionably. "I know a lot of ponies even though they don't know me."

"She's at my shop."

"Okay!!" I blink us to the front of her shop.

"What?"

"What the buck happened!?"

"Teleportation is what the fuck happened."

"Ooooooooh.... That's what that was."

"The only way that sentence made sense is that I know what you meant, anyway! To the candy shop. Or 'Bon Bon's Bon Bons' very clever."

"Thanks!" We all go inside. I turn pony form and canter inside. Bonnie and Lyra lead me to a back room of the shop. The shop actually looks a sixties candy shop, neat.

"You have a good looking shop Bon Bon." She smiles appreciatively. Anyway, we reach a room in the back part of the shop. Looks like an empty office with a stage. With Octy Standing on her hind legs with her famous cello. And Vinyl the best fucking DJ ever. Is standing to the side of the stage. When I see her, I freeze. *Vinyl, the best DJ in Equestria, standing right there. Holy fucking shit SHE"S RIGHT FUCKING THERE!*

"Streak are you ok?" She thinks for a minute. "And how are you a pony!?" Apparently i've been frozen in time for a while.

"Magic." I've gained attention from Octy and Vinyl.

"What do you mean by magic?" Her eyes widen. "Wait, you are Golden Streak? THEE Golden Streak?" I nod. "Uuuhhehehehehehe...." Her eyes lose focus and she falls over, passing out.

"Huh... Never had a reaction like that before."

"Um..? Dude? Who are you?"

*Jesus fucking christ she scared me.* "I am known as Golden Streak."

"Oh." She ponders that for moment. "OOooohh! You're the 'Richest Stallion in Equestria', right?" I nod. "Epic. Pleasure to meet ya Prince Streak. And nice to have you as a fan." I nod again.

"Nice to meet you too. And Streak is just fine. Also, i'm a really big fan." An eyebrow raises from her glasses. "A really big fan."

"Ooohh. You mean my music?" I nod. "Heh, thanks. And how come you're not jumping around screaming? I kinda expected that to happen." I chuckle a bit.

"I have supreme control over my emotions and reactions."

"Cool, nice to meet a fan that doesn't scream and jump around." I nod in agreement.

"I can only imagine. Oh! I just remembered something. I think I might have some new music for you." An eyebrow raises.

"Really?"

"Yes, and w-."

"Uuugghh...."

"Watch this." I walk up to Octavia. "Are you alright?" Her eyes regain focus and look on me.

"Golden Streak!" She jumps up and bows. "Tis' a please to be honored by your presence." I smirk.

"You don't need to be formal with me, Octavia."

"How do you know my name?"

"I know a lot of ponies, you happen to be a well known cellist." She smile a small smile.

"Thank you." I nod.

"So, You were going to practice, right?" She remembers that bit of info.

"Oh! Yes of coarse!" She nervously canters back to he stage, she kinda fell off the stage. Octi brushed her hair back to it's clean sleekness, which was disheveled.

"No need to to be nervous Octavia. Don't let me being a noble hinder your performance." She nods, a little more calm than before. She then began to play her cello. And I have to say, it was way better than I expected. The flow of notes that came from instrument was like floating down a calm river, pure bliss enveloping your body, nit caring about anything else but the beautiful music that emanated from her cello. When she finished her solo we all clapped.

"I'm not a big fan of classical music. But that was simply divine, Octavia." She blushes and smiles at my compliment.

"Th-thank you." She gets off the stage and packs up her stuff. While she does that a milky white hoof grabs me by the tail and pulls me to the main part of the candy shop.

"So, you said somethin' about new music?" I nod.

"Way to scare the fuck out a me Vinyl. And yes I do. Can you take me to your studio."

"Sure!" She leads me out of the shop and too her, and I think Octavia's as well, home. Vinyl takes me inside and upstairs to her room. And WOW she has an amazing studio. Soundproof room with that... control panel thing. Even what looks like an eighties looking desktop. Must be high tech for Equestria. Neat.

"Well? Watcha' think?"

"How come I haven't seen anything like this before?" She smirks.

"I'm well connected within the Equestrian science department." I smirk as well.

"Hehe... This has been the most advanced tech i've seen in Equestria." Vinyl raises an eyebrow.

"In Equestria?"

"Don't freak out." I poof to human form, open my inventory, and tap on a computer I took inventory of before I left for earth for the second time. A desktop. It blinks into existence complete with a table. *I'm starting to think that the whole 'once I touch an item it becomes an item in my creative inventory' thing. A little too over powered.* Completely true I know. Meanwhile Vinyl.... I can't tell what she's thinking with those glasses on.

"That had to be the most epic thing i've ever seen!"

"Heh, thanks."

"Can you show me how this thing works?" I nod.

"It's called a desktop, and I think it works the same way as the one you have." I've already started it up.

"Wow. Just, WOW!" She thinks for a second. "Are you an alien?"

"Yeah, pretty much."

"Awesome."

"Anyway, how do I show you the music I have?" She points to a spot on her setup.

"Through this jack right here." I look at it, it looks like a studio jack.

"Huh... Ok." I hold up a finger, it thins out and I out it into the jack (I make a lot of assumptions that have a fifty-fifty chance of working, admittedly a stupid habbit), and plug my finger in it. Immediately my head is filled with ones and zeros. *So this is what it feels like to be a digimon. Cool.* I... 'swim' around to find what i'm looking for, speakers. And soon enough I find them, or at least I think so. It looks like speakers. I float over to them and touch them. *Alright, now, how to play music.* I think of one song. And immediately it plays.

When it finishes a feel a pulling sensation, I let it pull me and i'm back in my own body.

"Huh... Didn't know I could do that."

"Ok, HOW did you do that?"

"Magic? I guess? I honestly have no idea."

"Whatever, that was a good song anyway. What is it? And by who?"

"Discord Remix. By Thelivingtombstone."

"Awesome."
