Dreams Do Come True

Sorry for the shitty chapter name i couldn't think of a good name i you payed me

Jason sat there reading a book, while “My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic” was on. He heard the phone ringing. Answering it, the voice on the other line was audibly sullen.

"Hello, is this Jason?" The deep, gruff voice inquired.

“This is he. May I ask who is speaking?” Jason retorted.

“My name is Detective Largo. I’m with the Johnson City police. I regret to inform you that your friend Damian has killed himself."

"What? That’s impossible. I talked to him a few weeks ago"
"Once again, I am sorry for your loss, but he left you a note and some things. If you don’t mind, can you pick them up today?"

"Yeah, sure. I’ll be there in about ten minutes" Jason replied flatly, clicking the receiver onto its stand.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Ten minutes later~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Here you go. I am so sorry for your loss.” Detective Largo said, placing a box onto the table in front of Jason.

“I said its fine. Where is that note he left me?” Jason demanded sternly.

“Here, sir,” Replied the Detective, passing the young man a hastily scribbled upon piece of paper. The note read as follows:

‘Dear Jason,
I’m sorry you have to find out that I ended it all, but I couldn’t take it anymore. My family had forgotten about me, and I couldn’t find a reason go on living. This is my final note to you my friend. You’re not just my best friend. You are also my brother.’

Jason was thinking to himself one day, while sitting in his bedroom, looking at a photo album.“It has been about three weeks since Damian killed himself. I don’t know what to do. In a way I want to leave this world behind. Maybe go to Equestria, but in a way I don’t think it would ever happen.

Suddenly, a white light enters Jason’s room. It looks like an angel.“Jason I heard your prayers and wishes, so if you want, you and Damian can be reunited. You can go to Equestria and become Shadowfoot.”

“Shadowfoot? My ponysona? But he’s just a nonexistent pony. How could he even exist in equestria?” Jason inquired.

“Damian will not have any memories. You will be his guardian at Canterlot Castle and you will basically raise him, but later in life. In his life he will start to have memories of you, but they will be scant and confusing. He has become his Ponysona, Shooting Star.”

Jason’s eyes grew at the sound of being reunited with his friend who was like a brother to him "Yes, do it. I want to leave now."

The angel smiled at him and said “You will have all of your memories. So don’t be shocked if Damian doesn’t know who you are.”
“I won’t" Jason promised, eager to be reunited with his friend.

A bright white light engulfed Jason and he was taken to Equestria. Standing in front of Princess Celestia she spoke to him.
Shadowfoot, do you want to stay and be the personal guardian for my soon to be child?

“y...yes.” Jason said, astounded that he was standing in front of the very ruler of Equestria. “But have you thought of a name?”
Celestia smiled and said “Shooting Star.”

Shadowfoot stared in shock. “Yes, I will do this.”

Time passed, as it tends to. Days turned to months, and this particular month, A certain baby alicorn was to be born. Waiting outside of the medical wing of the castle, Shadow paced back and forth, wearing a pattern into the plush carpets underhoof. In his time in Equestria so far, Shadow was designated as on honorary royal guard, and as such, would accompany the princesses as was fit.

This particular day, he had been studying alongside Princess Celestia when she went into labor with the young foal she carried.Shadow quickly rounded up some guards, and they proceeded to the medical wing. The Royal Guards that had trailed Shadow had to return to their posts, so he was left as moral support for the mother to be, as well as Princess Luna.

He wanted to see the young foal as soon as possible. Even though he wasn’t the father for the youngling, he was going to take his job as guardian very seriously. He let his best friend go once, he wasn’t about to let it happen again. After a few intensive hours, Young Shooting Star was brought into the land of equestrian, and Shadow’s job truly began.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After the initial few weeks Celestia was allowed to tend to her foal, her royal duties would not allow her to spend very much time with him. When Celestia or Luna weren’t around, Shadow was there for the young colt. He started teaching him all he knew about magic, But Shadow was also a new arrival to equestria, and in turn didn’t know much. What Shadow did know, was the difference between right and wrong, and being a true gentlecolt, the same way Shadow had been in his past life as

Jason. As the years passed, Shooting Star grew quite quickly, reaching the same size that most young colts and fillies took years to do, within weeks. Shadow had assumed it was because of the longevity of Alicorns is why they grew so quickly.
One fateful day, though, Shadow had reached his limit of teaching Shooting Star. Shadow and Celestia both knew that he would have to learn from somepony else. Celestia believed that there was no better teacher than Miss Twilight Sparkle, her

personal protégé. With heavy hearts, Shadow and Celestia sent young Star away to live with Miss Sparkle. Shadow sent star away with a very valuable gift. It was an enchanted map that would safely lead Star home, should he ever get lost and not have any assistance. Shadow didn’t like sending Star away, especially since he had grown so attached to the young colt. But Celestia was his mother, and Shadow had no right to be any part of that decision. He was just a guardian, nothing more.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The Night After Shadow’s Visit to Ponville~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shadow dropped his saddlebags unceremoniously on his bed. He proceeded to the dining hall to meet up with the Princesses. They had specifically asked Shadow to report back to them. It had been several weeks since they visited Star
themselves, and were eager to know how far he’d come in his social and magical growth. Shadow had reported back with
more than pleasing news. After Princess Luna took leave of her sibling to perform her nightly duties, Shadow was stopped by Celestia on his way out of the dining hall. Wondering what she could possibly want, he obliged her.

“Shadow, can we talk, privately for a moment?” the tone in her voice not fitting a question, but a demand.

“Certainly, princess. What might you need of a humble servant such as myself?” Shadow inquired.

“I know your secret, Shadow. A full grown unicorn does not simply appear in my kingdom, with not the faintest clue of rudimentary magic.” She said sternly. “Are you a changeling spy, or something close to that, Jason?”
