"What do you mean by that ?" Victor asked daring not to move an inch fearing he may anger the two princesses smiling Celestia walked forward placing a hand on his shoulder she said in a warm tone "He said that he brought you here to protect the elements along with making the 'evil' chaos come about a little less."

"Evil Chaos ?" Victor asked looking passed the princess to man who brought him hear sipping some tea Discord looked to the boy and shrugged his shoulders before pouring himself more tea "So what did you want to talk to me about ?"

"We know of your life and how you've lived it Discord explained our...............circumstances and showed us some of his memories involving his search for you, I have a few questions but they can be easily answered through time BUT one I wish to know is will you cause harm to my ponies ?" Celestia asked looking up into her magenta eye Victors crimson eyes didn't falter or look away when he said "I would only hurt one of your subjects if they were to attack me or any friends I would make here like Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie I would try and protect them but would I try hurting them, but attacking and hurting somepony for no good reason then the answer I can give you your majesty is no."

"Hmmmm you have very sincere eyes Victor so I will trust you but I will say this please do not make us regret our decision for allowing you to stay here." Celestia said turning away from him she began to make her back to her sister stopping she turned to look back at Victor she said "Now within a week me and my sister will introduce you to Ponyville so please prepare for it, we will also have Rarity put together some clothes for you in the meantime so be ready."

"Yes your majesty." Victor said nodding the two princesses teleported away sighing Victor relaxed his body a little Victor turned to look at Discord who hadn't teleported with the princesses raising one of his eyebrows Victor asked "Why are you still here ?"

"To see you become a mannequin."

"Huh ?" Victor said cocking his head to the side suddenly the door to the room burst open with Rarity leading the group in a big smile on her face eyeing Victor she sang "IDEEEEAAAAA~"

(Three weeks later)

Walking through Ponyville after a week and a half of hell that Rarity and the others had put him through slightly shuddering from the memories he began to walk to his job at Sweet Apple Acres where he now worked. The introductions to the town went well everpony was shocked to learn about him and his new position and for some reason at the time he got looks of disgust from a few stallions in the crowd but other than that he had a warm welcome from the town sighing he walked down the dirt path stopping he looked up at the sky seeing some clouds lazily drift by or be pushed by the weather teams. Making his up to the farm Victor began to look for Applejack since he was and told by her 'Not tah work any where else without her around.'

Walking around the compound he found her in the east field wearing short shorts a pale white and red flannel shirt her signature cowboy hat and boots signaling she was ready for work walking up Victor said "Morning boss what are we doing today ?"

"Today me and yah are gonna be working in the barn ah was just checking on these here trees." Applejack said signaling him to follow her nodding he began to follow her toward the barn halfway there Victor noticed Applejacks two siblings Big Mac and Applebloom. Looking up the young apple waved at Victor, smiling he waved back stepping infront of her Big Mac glared at the man. Quickly diverting his attention back to the barn he made his way into the barn looking around he saw a variety of tools, bales of hay, and other farm equipment seeing he standing in the middle of the barn was Applejack walking up to her he asked "So what are we doing in here ?"

"Today we are gonna be moving some of this here equipment out so we can use it on the farm but first we have a few bales of hay we gotta move you stay down here i'll head up and toss them down."

"Okay." Victor said waiting for Applejack to climb the ladder stopping she said "Oh and don't come up here if another pony is up here we are gonna be replacing the beams and at the moment the second floor can't really support two moving bodies."

"Understood I won't move from here."

"Good."

Climbing up Applejack pulled tow gloves onto her hands after that she walked over to the bales of hay carefully walking over to them picking one up she tossed it over the edge hearing a surprised grunt she said "Yah okay partner ?"

"Yes ma'am the bale almost got caught by one of my horns and it surprised me is all !"

Okay just watch the hay we need this to sell." she said grunting she began to go back to work picking up the bales and tossing them down to Victor they had worked in the barn for another hour sitting down Victor wiped sweat from his brow. Looking down at his clothes he saw that they had a few splotches mud on them sighing he muttered "Damn I'm gonna have to go back to Rarity."

" Well Victor looks like you are in some trouble."

"Oh hey boss and yep I mean Rarity is nice but I thought that my skin was thick but somehow she kept getting me and my scale are thick along with my skin !"

"Hehehe she always finds ways and doesn't even know it." Applejack said taking a swig from a bottle handing it to him Victor copied her motion and handed it back chuckling he said "Yep now only if she were better at not stabbing people I mean the clothes were the best fitting and comfortable but...."

"Its getting the clothes ?"

"Oh yeah so what else we got ?"

"Lets go and see." Applejack said standing up and motioning for him to follow standing up Victor groaned slightly as he followed her through the door.

(End of the work day)

Sitting down on the porch Victor was drinking a cool glass of water with his shirt next to him stretching his wings slightly he looked up at the stars lighting up the sky no matter how many times he would look up at them he always loved seeing them. Hearing some hoof steps behind him Victor turned to see Big Mac standing in the door way turning back to the sky he said "So Big Mac how did you enjoy your work day ?"

"It was good how about you ?"

"Well you workers sure know how beat the crap out of us."

"Hmm yeah we apples sure know how to work now why don't yah spend the night here ?" Big Mac asked turning Victor looked up at him with a quizzical look before saying "You sister okay with it ?"

"Well since Granny Smith invited you she really had no say."

"Oh well I guess I could sleep on the couch." Victor said standing up Big Mac nodded and moved out of his allowing Victor to make his way into the house."

(Later that night)

Yawning Victor rolled over and off the couch landing on the ground sighing he muttered "How does a wooden floor feel better than a couch ?" before drifting off to the land of dreams again.
