Twi! Celestia says to get a life! (Version 2)

It was a bright and sunny day as Lynx made his way to the observatory, where his friend Twilight, would most likely be reading or studying. His purple unicorn friend could never stay away from the books or her studies for more than a few minutes, unlike Lynx, the human who loved to run about and be active for most of the day.

Don't get me wrong, Lynx loved to read, but nothing like Twilight. Lynx pushed open the doors of the observatory to find Twilight in the middle of ranting/sending a letter to none other than Princess Celestia. Correction. Making Spike write a letter to Prncess Celestia. Lynx silently worked his way over to his favorite beanbag and laid down his royal guard's sword and sheath onto a nearby table and grabbed a novel to read until Twilight finished her speech/rant. Poor Spike had to keep up with the purple unicorn's fast paced rant about...Lynx listened in for a second...something about Nightmare Moon.

Spike had just finished writing the letter when Lynx piped up.

"Hey Twilight! Do you really think Celestia is going to believe all of that?" Twilight was startled by his sudden appearance, but then she just smirked and nodded as Spike sent the letter, torching the parchment in his green flames. Spike chuckled.

"I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you..."

Twilight just continued to smile at the two boys.

"I have complete and utter faith that the princess will take this matter seriously. She always had before." The two males' smiles faltered as Spike burped out a letter with the Princess' seal on it. Twilight gave them both a shit eating grin.

"Told you so!" Lynx hopped off of his beanbag and made his way over to Spike. The two boys read over the letter quickly in their heads. Spike laughed while Lynx grabbed his sword and sheath, cursing Celestia under his breath.

"Twi, the princess baisically says to get a life. She wants you, Spike, and I to go to Ponyvile to check if everything is ready for the summer sun celebration, and make some friends while we're at it. Spike can read the rest of the letter to you on the way there. I have to go back to the house and get my ranks..." Lynx was cut off by two white Pegasus guards entering the observatory. One them threw a pair of Sargent ranks at Lynx, who put them on, thanking the guard.

"Miss Twilight Sparkle, we have orders to escort you, Mr. Spike, and Sgt. Lynx Shadow to Ponyvile. The carriage is outside." The guard nodded at Lynx. "Sargent, we taught you how to use those wings, so put them to good use! Can you fly with your uniform and sword on?" Lynx sighed.

"Yes, Flashstorm." He replied to the white guards pony. Then he smiled at Twilight. "By the way, thank you and Celestia for these awesome wings." Lynx flared his giant dark blue wings, they were easily the size of Celestia's own wings, so that they could lift the 5 foot 6 human.
Twilight smiled back at him.

"No problem." Then they all headed out to Ponyvile.

The flight to Ponyvile was very uneventful to Lynx, so he did little aerial tricks and stunts here and there, entertaining Twilight and the royal guards while Spike read the letter out loud. Soon enough, they landed in Ponyvile where the small town was bustling with ponies going around, making preparations for the celebration later on that night. A few ponies stopped to gape at what they saw. Lynx nodded to those who stopped and kept walking, Twilight by his side. She looked at Lynx curiously. Lynx looked at her.

"Hey Twi, can I trust you to not end up dying? I'm pretty tired and I need to scope out the library that we'll be staying at for the time being." Twilight's shoulders sagged. She looked up at Lynx with giant purple puppy dog eyes.

"B-but you know how bad I am around ponies I don't know...can you please stay with me?" Lynx sighed. He had to resist, he had to...

"No...But I'll stay with you tonight. How about that?" Twilight still looked unsatisfied, but nodded in defeat. They spit up, heading in different directions. Spike and Twilight heading to Sweet apple Acers, and Lynx to Golden Oaks library.

Lynx wandered the streets aimlessly, not finding the library and about to give up and sleep on the ground when a familiar masculine voice rang out;
"H-hey! Lynx! Dude, is that you?" Lynx smiled as a black Pegasus with a light blue and white Mohawk walked up to him with an unbelieving kind of look on his face. With a gaping mouth, the black Pegasus inspected Lynx up and down. After a few seconds, the black Pegasus finished and walked alongside Lynx, who just chuckled.

"Hey Thunderlane! What's it been? Six? Seven years?" Thunderlane laughed.
"Yeah...so how have you been? Judging from your rank, you seem to be doing pretty good in the Royal Guard."

"Yeah...hey Thunder, do you know where the library is? We can catch up later, I'm really tired."
"Yeah...its Right there, I have to go, I'll see you later ok?"

"See ya! Say hi to Cloudchaser for me!" Lynx smirked as he said that.
"Will do! And it's nice to know that you're not dead!" And with that, Thunderlane took off, flying away to help out with preparations. Lynx was getting more tired as each minute passed. Lynx entered the giant tree library and headed up the stairs to a small bedroom. Sighing, he slumped onto the bed, cushioning his fall. He closed his eyes, letting his body relax, and his dreams overtake his mind.

(Meanwhile...)

Twilight had had enough. She had been run over by Apple Jack's family, tackled by Rainbow Dash, then she ruined her hair, got her wet, then messed up her mane even more, then Rarity put her into a million different outfits, AND NOW she had to deal with the butter Pegasus who wanted to spend, EVERY SINGLE MOMENT with Spike and she WOULDN'T leave until she had heard it all! Apon seeing the library, Twilight quickening her pace so she could tell Lynx all about her crazy day and finally have some peace and quiet. Spike finally finished his whole life story. Then he piped up;

"So do you want to hear about TODAY?" After hearing that, Twilight spun around.
"Hey! Would you look at the time? We've been walking around all day, and poor little spikie wikie needs his sleep!"

"Hey, no I do-" Twilight flailed her back legs, making Spike fall off. Twilight gave a look of mock surprise and concern.
"See, he's so tired he can't even sit right!" Fluttershy put her hooves to her face and gasped.

"You're right, i'll take him to hi bed-" Twilight stopped her and grabbed Spike and slammed the door on Fluttershy, leaving her and Spike in the darkness of the library.

"That was really rude Twi."
"Well I have to convince the princess that Nightmare moon is going to escape, so I need to study, and I can't do that with a bunch of crazy ponies trying to make friends all the time! Now where's the light?" The lights suddenly came on and a loud chorus of "SURPRISE!" was heard. Twilight had made up her mind. She was DONE with today. Walking to the refreshment table, Twilight was ambushed by a super hyper active pink earth pony whom Twilight completely ignored.

"HI!MYNAMESPINKIEPIEBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAHBLAH...." Twilight unknowingly poured a cup of hot sauce and drank it while Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Apple Jack watched. Twilight felt a burning sensation in her mouth. She suddenly erupted in a plume of flames and ran to the library's bedroom was. Sadly, Lynx was still there, sleeping, so Twilight looked out of the window at the moon. Four glowing stars seemed to be moving closer to the moon.

"I hope the princess was right, otherwise Nightmare moon will put us into an everlasting night." Spike entered the bedroom. He had a lamp shade on his head.

"Hey Twilight, we have to leave soon or we'll miss the summer sun celebration!" Then the baby drake left. Light snoring was heard from Lynx as he slept, lost in his dreams. Twilight levitated him off of the bed, dropping him from three feet in the air. Lynx awoke to pain and a grinning Twilight. "Wakie, wakie. You have a promise to fulfill..."

Lynx cursed. "Ok, ok. Geez Sparky! Didja have to drop me?" Twilight giggled. She walked out of the bedroom, her tail motioning for Lynx to do the same. Lynx followed drowsily.

They finally made it to town hall, and boy, was it packed. Twilight and Lynx waded rough the crowd of ponies together but a solar guard noticed Lynx and called him over. Lynx gave a sheepish grin to Twilight who just rolled her eyes and dismissed him with a hoof. Lynx made his way around the edge of the crowd, getting some "Hey Lynx!"s along the way. Just as he made it over to the small group of guards, Mayor Mare spoke.

"Fillies and gentlecolts, as mayor of Ponyvile, It is my great pleasure to announce the beginning of the Summer sun celebration!" The crowd gave a loud cheer. Lynx and Twilight both looked at the full moon. The dark shadow of the nightmare had disappeared. Then the mayor continued. "In just a few moments, our town will be the first to witness the magic of the sunrise and celebrate today, the longest day of the year! It is my great honor to introduce to you the very pony who gives us the sun and the moon every day, Princess Celestia!"

Fluttershy's birds sang and Rarity pulled back the curtains to reveal...nothing. The ponies started to freak out, and the mayor tried to calm them. The guards looked around furiously. Lynx's eyes widened at the thought that Twilight was right, and he commanded the guards to come back over to him and get ready. Suddenly, a dark, wispy, purple mist arose from the podium, causing everypony to gasp.

A dark, black, Alicorn appeared from the mist. Lynx and the guards cursed, Spike fainted, and Twilight hung her head low.
"Oh no...Nightmare Moon..." Nightmare moon smiled as she looked around.

"Oh my little addled subjects. It has been so long since I have seen your precious, pathetic little faces." The dark Alicorn said in a evilish tone. A rainbow maned mare yelled out in the crowd;

"What have you done with our Princess?!" A mare with a Stetson had to hold the Pegasus back by the tail.
"Woah nelly!" The mare muttered. The dark Alicorn cackled with sinister laughter.

"What, am I not royal enough for you? Don't you know who I am?" A pink earth pony piped up excitedly, rattling off random names until the Stetson wearing mare stuffed an apple in her mouth. The dark Alicorn shook her head in disappointment. "After a thousand years of imprisonment, no one remembers me. Did you not hear the legends? Did you not see the signs?!" A purple pony in the crowd cut in.

"I did! And I know who you are. You're the mare in the moon! Nightmare Moon." The crowd gasped. Lynx facepalmed at the ponies' stupidity.

'Ok for one, she is not intimidating. And two, come on! It was obvious!'
The dark Alicorn raised a brow. "Well well well, it looks like somepony remembers me. Then you know why I am here?!" Twilight faltered.

"You're here to...to...to..." Twilight gulped. Nightmare Moon cackled once more.
"Remember this day, little ponies, for it will be your last! From this moment forward, the night will last Forever!" Then She laughed heartily, and a dark wispy storm raged around her. Lynx drew his sword from his back. The solar guards readied themselves, for they had no swords.

"Ready? Three...two...one...Attack!" Lynx commanded, and the guards sprung into action, running at Nightmare Moon. Apparently, she had been expecting this, so she sent lightning down at the guards, shocking them, rendering them useless. Lynx however, had deflected the lightning bolt off of his sword. He took flight, ready to strike her down. He was so close, but her horn flashed, and her strong magic grasped Lynx in her telekinesis, making him stop mid air, sword in mid-strike. Lynx glared at Nightmare Moon. She smiled.

"Well well well, aren't you quite the catch? I believe you will make an excellent play toy." With that, the dark Alicorn transformed into a purple, wispy, smoke, and sped off, Lynx in tow. He was able to let out one last yell before he was whisked away, and that was;

"TWILIGHT! AVENGE MEEEEEE....." More than half of the crowd was stunned at the sight of Lynx Shadow, one human they never thought they would see again. Five mares in particular... Apple Jack's eyes widened, and she lost her grip on Rainbow Dash, saying;

"Sweet Celestia, was that..." Four other mares finished her sentence in unison.
"LYNX?!"

Shaking her head, Rainbow Dash quickly took to the skies, ready to chase after Lynx and Nightmare Moon, but neither of them was to be seen anywhere. Just as she was about to give up, when a familiar purple unicorn rushed off suspiciously. Rainbow Dash raised an eyebrow.

'Where is she going to in such a hurry? Maybe I'll get the girls and follow her..."

"No...no...we have to go after Nightmare Moon-" The baby drake cried out his sleep before crashing back into his makeshift bed. Twilight covered him with a blanket as he slept soundly.

"You've been up all night, Spike. After all you are a baby dragon." Twilight made her way down the stairs and flung herself into the books, looking furiously for something. "Elements, elements, elements! How can I defeat nightmare moon if I don't have the elements of harmony?!" Twilight was about to look at another book when a familiar cyan Pegasus appeared in her face.

"And just what are the elements of harmony? And how did you know about what Nightmare moon was planning? and just what are you to Lynx? ARE YOU A SPY?-WAA!" Applejack pulled on the rainbow maned mare's tail, pulling hard on it, making her sit.

"She aint no spy rainbow, but...she knows what's going on don'tcha Twilight?" Twilight nodded.
"I read about all of the signs about her return and some mysterious objects called the elements of harmony are the only things that can stop her. Only thing is, I don't know where they are... or what they even do."

"The elements of harmony, a reference guide." Pinkie Pie read aloud. Twilight knocked Pinkie Pie out of the way.
"How did you find it?!"

"it was under Eeeeee!" Pinkie pie said in a sing songy voice, bouncing lightly on her hooves.
"Alright in the book it says..."

(In the castle of the two sisters...)

Lynx was bound to a king sized bed by his wrists and ankles with black leather straps, while a Dark Alicorn mare eyed him as she sent out a large purple mist to do her bidding. Once she was done with her purple mist, she sauntered over to Lynx with half lidded eyes. Lynx gulped audibly. He knew that look. When Twilight was in heat, Lynx had to deal with Twilight constantly trying to get in his pants. Luckily, he got away from her easily, since he had slipped a ring that cancelled magic, on her horn. But that was back then. Lynx didn't have a magic ring to stall Nightmare moon from getting in his pants. Probably wouldn't stop her anyway. The dark Alicorn climbed on Lynx, her marehood dripping something wet and warm onto Lynx's pants. She reached where his pants began. Her horn flashed and Lynx was wearing nothing. His clothes were across the big room far, far, away from Lynx's reach.

(Warning. The following contains content that is the reason this fic isn't rated teen.)

Lynx's now throbbing member stood at full staff, and he tried to plead with the dark Alicorn.
"Please don't...i'd rather die....please just kill me-ooooohhhh." Lynx's pleading came to a halt as Nightmare Moon licked the tip of his member, making him shudder in pleasure. then she proceeded to lick up, down, and around his member, making Lynx moan loudly, trying to resist, but what could he do?

(Ok, ok, I won't write a whole sex scene to torture you all...yet...)

Just as Nightmare began to "mount" him, the purple mist came in, crashing through the window, interrupting the dark Alicorn from taking Lynx's virginity. She got off and looked out of the window.

"Grrr those pesky fillies think they can defeat me? I'll show them!" She looked at Lynx, who was struggling against the leather bounds. She smiled wickedly. "Don't worry, I'll be back for you..."

"I hope not..." Lynx muttered. Then nightmare was gone. Lynx heard Twilight talking to other mares that he recognized instantly. Lynx struggled against the leather bounds. It was futile. Lynx lay there in defeat, when a familiar blazing phoenix flew into the room. The phoenix looked at Lynx with her head cocked to the side. Lynx had no idea what to do next. So he tried something new.

"Philomena! Get me out of this!" The phoenix didn't move. Lynx sighed. "Please?" The phoenix nodded and bit and clawed at the leather bounds. One of Lynx's arms was now free. Lynx urged on Philomena, who started to work at a faster pace. Lynx's other arm was free. But the process was taking too long. He tapped the wing of the phoenix, making the bird give him her complete, and undivided attention. Lynx motioned to where his clothes were.

"Philomena, can you grab that sword by my clothes- oh thanks!" The phoenix wasted no time flying over to Lynx's clothes, grabbing the sword, and slowly dragging it across the room to the side of the large bed where Lynx was bound. The bird looked at Lynx. The sword was too heavy for the bird to lift. Lynx leaned over and grabbed the sword, but crushing his member in the process. Lynx let out a pained whimper. Setting his sword down onto the bed, he laid in a fetal position for several minutes, holding his crotch and listening to Twilight saying something about how Nightmare moon could never destroy the elements of harmony. Then, a bright flash followed shortly after, making Lynx grab his sword and slice through the leather, forgetting about his pain. Freeing himself, he quickly put on his clothes and ran through the castle, sword at the ready, and phoenix by his side, only to find Twilight, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, and Celestia around a small dark blue Alicorn. They all were welcoming back Princess Luna, Celestia's sister. Smiling, Lynx sheathed his sword and slung it onto his back, and leaned against the door frame.

Philomena flew over to Celestia, making her look in Lynx's direction, looking confused. Luna looked at him with a large blush present on her face. Celestia spoke first.

"Lynx! Where have you been?" The girls whipped around at the mention of Lynx's name. Twilight smiled and teleported behind Lynx, then tackled him to the ground in a hug. Lynx smiled as he threw her up in the air and caught her, hugging her that way.

"Y'know Twi, if you wanted a hug, you could have just asked."
"T-then c-can i have one too?" A shy butter cream Pegasus asked, walking over to Lynx with pleading eyes. Lynx smiled. He set Twilight down, and swiftly grabbed Fluttershy and Pinkie pie and wrapped them both in a tight embrace.

"Course ya can Flutters! And hey pinkie pie?" The pink earth pony in his arms looked at Lynx. Lynx put on a serious face, like they made him do in the guard. "I know you know what happened to me, and I want you to pinkie promise not to tell ANYONE, ok?" Pinkie Pie nodded before leaping out of Lynx's arms and doing a pinkie promise. Then Lynx put Fluttershy down and made his way to Rarity, AJ, and Rainbow Dash. They backed away as soon as Lynx came close to them and Twilight piped up.

"Hey Lynx? How does everypony seem to know you?" Lynx rubbed the back of his head. Then he grabbed Rarity and AJ and brought them into a warm embrace, as Rainbow Dash flew across the room, away from Lynx's reach.
"It's a long story, I'll tell you later. I think we should all celebrate the return of Celestia's sister, Princess Luna!"

(And so they did. And Twilight decided to stay in Ponyvile, and Celestia made Lynx stay as well.)

"Still can't believe she made me stay here..." Lynx groaned as he held a cyan Pegasus in his arms, walking with Twilight and his friends. Rainbow Dash looked up at Lynx with hurt in her magenta eyes. The other mares did the same. AJ was about to say something when Thunderlane landed in front of lynx.

"What, are you too good for Ponyvile now?" Thunderlane asked sarcastically. Lynx rolled his eyes.
"No it's not that, its just all of my stuff is in canterlot. Including my guitar..." Everypony nodded in sympathy. Then Rainbow Dash's eyes lit up. She leapt out of Lynx's arms, and took off, but not before yelling out;

"It may not be your guitar, but I have something for you! Meet me at the library and keep Lynx's eyes closed, its a surprise!" Lynx and Thunderlane raised an eyebrow.

"Ok....? Well I guess you all are going to have to lead me to the library...." Lynx closed his eyes. Pinkie Pie giggled.
"We're already here silly!" Lynx face palmed then sat down. Twilight gave Lynx a few seconds before asking;

"So...it's later and you said you would tell me your story..." Lynx smiled.
"Fine. I'm not much of a story teller, but here goes..."

(13 years ago, in Colorado Springs, Colorado in a dark maroon jeep...)
It was a dark and stormy night, rain battered the broken windows, thunder clashed overhead, and lightning flashed. Lynx whimpered out of fear as the jeep slid to a stop, and the driver yelled into his phone;

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE THE WRONG KID!? I JUST MURDERED A FUCKING AIR FORCE COLONEL AND HIS WIFE IN FRONT OF THE DAMN KID!" Tears streamed down Lynx's cheeks as he remembered what happened. Soon enough, Lynx was bawling like a baby, as the driver continued to yell into his phone. "Fine. But you owe me. What do I do with the kid? Really? Okay but you're taking care of the body."
The man hung up and twisted around and looked at Lynx. Lynx wiped his tears away and glared at the man. The man sighed.
"Look kid, if it were up to me, I would let you go and live your life...but..." He pulled a silver Desert Eagle and aimed it at Lynx's head.
"Any thing you want to say before I blow your head off?" Lynx took a deep breath and then looked the man straight in the eye and...

Flipped the middle finger and said, "F-fuck y-you..." The man smiled.

"You got balls kid, you got balls."

(Present time)
"Wait, so you *gulp* died?" Thunderlane asked.

"Yeah."
"Dude I'm sorry."

"Well if hadn't died, I wouldn't be here."
"I guess..."

"Hey is rainbow here yet?"
"No. Keep your eyes closed Lynx." Twilight responded.

"Well can we at least go inside? It's getting cold."
"Sure, but continue with your story Lynx."

"ok."

(13 years ago...)

Lynx awoke to the sound of chirping birds and voices. He didn't recognize the voices, but he opened his eyes and was met with a pair of golden amber eyes. The one looking at him was a...a...a horse? No too small to be a horse...so...a pony? Lynx was about to get up and pet the pony but then it opened it's mouth and spoke.

"Hey there...I don't know if you understand me or not but my name's Lightning Flash." Lightning Flash was a light green Pegasus with black and blond hair. On his flank was a lightning bolt with wings on it. Lynx's jaw dropped. He never knew that ponies could talk, or have wings either. 'Maybe i'm in some other universe or something.' Lynx sat up and held out his hand.

"Hi, my name's Lynx Shadow. Umm can you tell me where I am?"
The green Pegasus smiled.

"So you can understand me. Awesome! As for your question...well...you're in Equestria."
Lynx didn't know how to take this. 'wait a second, what if i'm dreaming?'

"Um...Lightning Flash?"
"Yes Lynx?"

"Can you like punch me in the arm so I know if i'm dreaming or not?"
"Are you sure? That would hurt you though!"

"That's kind of the point. Don't worry about me, I've been in fights before, I can take a hit. Please?????"
"Well if you're sure..." Lightning Flash reared back his fore hoof and punched Lynx in the arm. Hard. A jolt of pain made Lynx realize...he wasn't on earth anymore.
(a few hours later, Lynx and Lightning Flash made it back to his house in ponyvile. The two had discussed everything about each other and were still going at it when Lightning opened the door, and the smell of vegetable soup hit them both, making their mouths water, and stomachs to grumble.

"Light? Is that you?" Lightning Flash motioned for Lynx to sit on the living room couch and to stay quiet.
"Yes Rose. It's me. Where are you, I have something to discuss..." Lightning asked, trotting into the kitchen. Lynx took this chance to look around a bit. This house seemed like a decent size, the living room had a light tan sofa and a wooden coffee table. As far as Lynx could tell, there was really no Tv's or radios or anything of the sort. Lynx searched his pant's pockets for something to do. He grinned as he found his mp3 player and his headphones. He knew it would probably be charged, but he didn't expect it to be charging. It wasn't connected to a battery charger or electricity, so this stumped him. Lynx put in a ear bud and was about to start a song up when a voice spoke.

"Hi there." Lynx flinched before looking to his side. A light (Peach?)(Yellow?) pony with two shades of light magenta looked at him curiously. Her light green eyes looked uncertain, but curious, a the small human. She had a rose on her flank, and Lynx face palmed in his head as "Rose" spoke once more.

"Checking me out huh? Sorry, but..." Lightning Flash entered with three bowls balanced on his back and his spread out wings. She smiled. "...I'm taken." Lynx took a bowl of soup from Lightning's wing.

"Sorry I just..." Rose put out a hoof.
"I'm just messing with you. The name's Roseluck. What's yours?" Lynx shook her hoof, gripping his bowl tightly with his left hand.

"Lynx. Lynx Shadow." Roseluck looked at Lynx in confusion. Lynx sat down onto the couch.
"You sure don't look like a Lynx." Lynx laughed.

"Well you don't look like a rose."
"Touché. By the way, what....um....are you? I haven't seen anything like you before. Have you Light?" Lightning Flash shook his head. Lynx sighed.

'Guess there's no other humans then...'
"I am a human. I forget what the scientific term was." They nodded and began to eat once more. A loud knocking on the door startled them all. Lightning Flash opened the door and three armored ponies walked in, one of them holding a scroll, while the other two wielded swords. Lighting rushed back over to Roseluck, flaring his wings defensively. Seeing Lightning Flash do this, Lynx got into a boxer stance, raising his fists, ready to brawl. The guard in front ordered the other two to stand down.

"Relax, please. I am Captain Night Blitz, and I came to relay a message to the human." Apon hearing that he was a captain, Lynx gave a salute before asking;

"Sure thing, sir. What's the message?"
"To come outside. Somepony very important would like to speak with you." Lynx nodded before walking out of the house. He was met with a huge Pegasus/unicorn hybrid, and it looked like a female.

"Um...Miss?" She turned to look at him. She had a pure white coat with flowing pink hair, and her eyes were a light magenta color. She had a sun on her flank matching the one on her crest. 'What are those damn marks for?!' Lynx asked himself in his head. Apparently the pony could read minds so she responded out loud;

"Those are called cutie marks Lynx. They signify what a ponies' special talent is. For example, my talent is raising the sun and moon."
Lynx's jaw hung open. "Did you just read my mind?" She nodded.

"I have been for some time. I truly am sorry for what happened to you and your parents." Lynx started feeling the tears come back.
"It's...it's ok." Lynx wiped his face.

"How old are you Lynx?" Lynx cocked his head to the side.
"I just turned ten, why?" The white pony shook her head.

"Such a young age to die." She looked at him. "Tell me Lynx, how would you feel if I gave you citizenship, and had you go to school to continue your learning?" Lynx looked at her, confused.

"Really?"
"Yes."

"I would feel...what's the word...honored if you did. Just...who would I stay with? I've been told I have slight abandonment issues."
A voice from behind him said;

"Well if you would like, Roseluck and I could take you in. That is of course if Princess Celestia says it's ok." Lynx looked at Celestia pleadingly. It had only been a few hours since he first met them, and he was already liking them. Celestia nodded. Lynx stepped forward and hugged the princess. The guards rushed over to get him off, but Celestia halted them and wrapped her fore legs around lynx. Lynx was only 4 foot 8 so he came up to Celestia's chest. (She's what, like 7, 8 feet tall?) She smelled like lavender shampoo. Her coat felt like a giant stuffed animal. Lynx let go and she did the same.

"Thank you. Maybe I can actually have a life. When does school start?" Celestia smiled.
"Most colts and fillies would be dreading the day that they had to go to school, and you can't wait for it?" Lynx rubbed his head.

"Well I've always liked school. You get to meet new people...errr...ponies."
"Very well. School starts in a few weeks. I'll be keeping tabs on you...actually, how about this; I'm going to give you a magic journal that you can write about your day to me. I ask a minimum of two per week."

"Okay. Is the writing and reading in this world the same as English?" Celestia looked at him funny. He could feel her digging through his mind for English. Eventually, she nodded saying it was the same. Lynx yawned. It was late night, (NO he wasn't thirsty!) and Celestia left with her guards and leaving Lynx with Lightning and Rose. They all went back inside and ate their now cold soup. Lynx fell asleep on the couch, and Roseluck put him on her back and carried him to an unoccupied room with a spare bed.

(Present time)
Lynx asked;

"Is Rainbow here yet? If I keep my eyes closed any longer, I'm going to fall asleep." They all laughed.
"Try looking in your lap, Lynx." Lynx opened his eyes. In his lap was Rainbow dash with his dad's patrol cap on. It was all he had left of his father and when it had gone missing, he had gone on a rampage, searching everywhere. The rampage lasted two weeks until Celestia had made him calm down with magic. Lynx gently took the hat off of Rainbow's head, as if he thought it would disappear with one wrong move. A tear rolled down his cheek.

"Thank you. I've been looking for this everywhere. Ever since well i'll get to that." He put it on, remembering all of the good times he spent with his father.

"Uh Lynx? I have your music player too." Rainbow Dash held up his mp3 player and ear buds. Lynx grabbed them and brought Rainbow Dash close. She didn't resist for some reason. While he held her, he continued with his story.

(13 years earlier, that next day,)

"Hey Lynx! Wake up, Breakfast is ready!" A voice called out from the kitchen. Lynx shook his weariness away and walked into the living room where Lightning Flash and Celestia were talking.

"Mornin."
"Good morning Lynx."

"Hey bud."
Lynx walked into the kitchen where Roseluck was making...waffles.

"Morning Rose!" She turned with a plate stacked with waffles. She motioned to the coffee table in the living room. A bottle of syrup was waiting for him. Lynx sat down next to Lightning and dug in. When he was finished, Rose, Lightning, and Celestia were looking at him. He looked back in confusion.

"Something wrong?" Celestia shook her head.
"No I just wanted to let you know, you now have full citizenship and you should probably meet everyone in this town so they don't freak out." Lynx nodded.

"Sure, right after I do the dishes."
Rose shook her head. "No, you meeting the townsfolk is more important than the dishes. Go, i'll do them." Lynx was reluctant, but followed Celestia outside. They walked the town together, introducing Lynx to everypony. Lynx realized that these ponies were extremely accepting. Not one of them ran from him or anything and they were pretty friendly. Even when Celestia left, and Lynx kept meeting ponies they were still friendly. 'Guess it wasn't just an act. Or because of Celestia.' Lynx thought as he sat in the park, sitting against a tree, listening to music.
A black Pegasus colt walked up to lynx.

"Hi?"
"Hi."

"What's your name?"
"My name's Lynx. What's yours?"

"Mine's Thunderlane, everypony just calls me thunder. So what exactly are you?"
"I'm a human. I'm from another world." Thunderlane's eyes lit up.

"That's awesome!" Lynx nodded. "Could you tell me more about your world? Please?" Lynx smiled.
"Only if you can beat me in a race!" Lynx pointed to another tree across the park. Thunderlane flared his wings.

"Okay! Bet I can!"
"Then let's go!" Lynx sprinted off, while Thunderlane took to the skies, easily gliding first over to the tree. Lynx was only seconds behind.

"That's not fair! You used your wings!" Thunder laughed.
"You didn't say not to! So, about your world..." The two sat against the tree for hours, talking about anything that came to mind. Eventually, the skies began to darken and both of them had to go home. Lynx waved as Thunderlane took off, flying home. Lynx not having wings, walked through the streets of Ponyvile, trying to remember what Lightning Flash's house looked like. Lynx heard the light beating of wings and turned around. Lightning Flash hovered above him, grinning like a bandit.

"Looks like some human forgot his way ho-ome..." Lynx rubbed the back of his head nervously.
"Sorry..."

"It's ok. Just follow me. You actually just passed it. Easiest way to remember is that sugarcube corner is right across from it." Lightning gestured with his hoof. "See?" Lynx nodded and they made their way inside.

(First day of school in Equestria.)

"Rose, give the poor colt a break." Lightning Flash said, making waffles for all of them. Roseluck continued to ask Lynx endless amounts of questions and if he knew where the house was and other random stuff like it. While he was happy that she cared so much for him, it was getting annoying. Lynx gently put a finger to Roseluck's mouth, halting her.

"I second that Lightning. Rose, i'm going to be fine. Plus, Thunderlane has the same class as me and everything!" Rose sighed.
"I know, I just can't stop worrying." Lynx laughed. A knock sounded at the door. Lynx made his way to the door. He opened it to find an irritated Thunderlane. His fur had been groomed and his hair was laid low and fancy. Lynx laughed.

"Dude, what happened to you?"
"A case of the mom syndrome."

"I know the feeling. Hey how long until school starts?"
"Not very long. If we head out now, we should be able to make it in time."

"Anything to get me away from Roseluck. I'll be right back." Lynx went into the kitchen and said; "Hey me and Thunder are heading out. We'll just hold off on breakfast." Rose glared at him while Lightning Flash waved him off, telling him to have a good day. Lynx rushed out the door and they set off to the school.

It didn't take long to reach the school, and they still had a few minutes to spare. Lynx followed Thunderlane through the small hallways to their classroom. There were only a few ponies in the room, so Thunderlane and Lynx picked their seats right next to each other.

"You sure that we aren't just early Thunder?" Before he could respond, a orange filly with blonde hair responded;
"We're all early sugarcube. School doesn't start for another 30 minutes." Lynx and Thunderlane both groaned.

"Thunder, I think your mom lied to you again. I could have had Lightning's waffles..." A blue Pegasus with a rainbow mane awoke with a start, looking around franticly.

"Waffles? Where?" Lynx rolled his eyes and was about to respond with a sarcastic joke when Thunderlane put a hoof to his mouth. "What?"

"Try to avoid her as much as possible. She's a bully." Lynx looked at Thunderlane flatly.
"I think I'll be fine."

"She doesn't look like it, but rumor has it that before she dropped out of flight school, she broke the sound barrier and made this awesome rainbow trail." Lynx's eyes went huge.
On earth, the military had some jets that could break the sound barrier several times over, but the jets were made of metal and stuff to protect against the g-forces. His dad talked about it sometimes. There was no way that a pony Pegasus could go that fast without having their skin ripped off or something. And to have made a Rainbow out of it.

"No way..." Thunderlane nodded. Lynx looked back at the Pegasus. She had fallen asleep once more. Lynx turned back to Thunderlane, only to find him talking to a red coated colt. Lynx sat forward, and pulled out his mp3 player and put in an ear bud. A hoof tapped his shoulder before he could start a song. The pony who had done so, grabbed his headphones and mp3 player and simply walked away, like nothing happened. Growling, Lynx began to get up, but once again, Thunderlane stopped him. Lynx glared at him.

"What, lemme guess, that one has incredible strength and has a gang that can kick the shit out of me?" Thunderlane nodded.
"Pretty much. Plus that flight school drop out is part of that gang. It'll be so much easier to let them take your stuff." Lynx sighed. He knew he could tke he gang out easily, his dad had taught him how to fight, but yesterday Celestia had told him to be on his best behavior. Lynx slumped into his seat. But the "school bullies" weren't done yet. The brown colt from before came from behind and grabbed his hat.

Lynx had enough of this. He turned to the smiling colt that had his hat. The colt saw Lynx glaring at him, so he retreated to the back of the classroom, where his big earth pony buddies were. Lynx started after him. As he approached, the earth ponies seemed to notice him and stood in his way of the brown Pegasus colt, who was now listening to Lynx's music and wearing his dad's hat. Lynx growled at the earth ponies in front of him.

"I don't have a problem with you two yet, so why don't you move out of the way before I do." They laughed.
"More like you should just turn around and walk away before our gang bucks you up. Ain't that right Rainbow?" The blue Pegasus with rainbow colored mare from earlier sized up Lynx before nodding. Lynx smiled.

"Okay how about this? If I take on your whole gang, you give me my stuff back. So, what's it going to be? Right after school, in the play ground." The whole class gasped. The bullies nodded while the rainbow maned filly seemed to be having second thoughts.

"Okay you hairless ape, you better be there." Lynx walked back over to his seat with all eyes on him. Thunderlane and the orange mare from before looked at him with wild eyes.

"Are you outta your mind?!" Lynx looked at them calmly.
"No, I want my stuff back. Look. They took the only thing I have left of my father. My dead father that was murdered in front of me for no reason whatsoever." Their eyes widened. Apparently, he had been talking loud enough for the whole class to hear. The Pegasus filly from before walked up to him. She had tears in her magenta eyes. Lynx looked at her in confusion.

"I-i'm sorry... I can help you get your stuff back..."
"You sure? You don't have to, I fight my own battles. I can hold my own." She nodded.

"Honestly, i'm tired of them bulling everypony. Poor Fluttershy won't even come to school anymore." The orange mare from before looked at the cyan Pegasus.

"So that's what happened to Fluttershy? Why ah otta..." She looked at Lynx. "My name's AppleJack. I'll help you fight 'em." She held out a hoof. Lynx shook it.

"Name's Lynx." She looked like she was about to say something. "Yeah I know I don't look like one." He turned to the cyan filly.
"What's your name?"

She puffed out her chest before saying, "Name's Rainbow Dash, fastest flyer in equestria."
"Sure...so this is my buddy, Thunderlane." Both of the fillies stared at him flatly.

"We know."
"Really?" Lynx looked at Thunderlane who rubbed the back of his head.

"I may have...um...caused a small explosion with the science stuff."
"Small? More like huge! You're lucky nobody got hurt. They had to cancel school for a few months until they repaired the school."

Lynx laughed. "Awesome!"
"I know right? It was blue and green and..." They stopped when the girls glared at them. Lynx and Thunder shut up. Then Rainbow Dash's eyes widened. She inclined her head, warning Lynx. Lynx turned around. The brown Pegasus colt from before held out Lynx's mp3 player and hat. Lynx took it then glared at the young colt.

"I can forgive you for this, but never touch my stuff again. Ok? Spread the word." The colt nodded before facing Rainbow Dash.
"Hey Rainbow, you comin?" Rainbow Dash shook her head.

"No. I'm leaving the gang." The colt's jaw dropped. "You all used to be fun to hang out with. Now you're all just stuck up little...mmph!" AJ stuck her hoof in Rainbow Dash's mouth. The colt got the idea and left, sulking. Rainbow spat out AJ's hoof.

"Good morning class!" A purple earth pony with a smiling sun on her rump said. "I'm miss Cheerilily and i'm your new teacher!"
(can't spell her name. sorry )

AJ and Rainbow took their seats behind Lynx and Thunderlane.
'This is gonna be a long day...' Lynx thought as the young teacher read the attendance.

(Afterschool)
The bell rang and all of the ponies raced out of the school, while Lynx, Thunder, AJ, and Rainbow Dash made their way to the playground where some thirteen colts stood waiting. Rainbow Dash tugged on Lynx's pants. he looked at her.

"You got your stuff back, so why not just forget about all of this?" Lynx sighed.
"It's their choice if they want to fight. I just came to make them stop taking other ponies' stuff. Ya don't have to stay with me you know."

"Yes we do, we're your friends."
"That's right sugarcube."

"Yup. I'm with you the whole way Lynx."
"Okay...Hey! So is this all of you?" Lynx said, asking the group. A big grey colt stepped up.

"Yeah. We came to teach you a lesson to not mess with us." Lynx looked at the group. There was four Pegasai, and nine earth ponies.
'Thank you Celestia. No unicorns. haven't met one yet and I don't even want to know what they can do to me.'

Lynx got into a boxer stance, fists up, while Rainbow dash and Thunderlane took to the air and AJ tensed up. The grey colt laughed.
"This is going to be easy." Then he ran up to Lynx, jumping in the air, getting ready to do some sort of flying kick. Lynx easily stepped to the side, then punched the grey colt hard in the muzzle.

"Stay down!" Lynx ordered the grey colt. The colt nodded, then Lynx turned around and was met with a punch to the gut. Lynx let out an "oof" then sent the green Pegasus that had attacked him, flying away with a powerful kick to the chest. looking over at AJ his eyes bulged as she sent two colts flying back with a...what would you call that? A buck? I dunno. Anyway, Thunderlane and Rainbow Dash were quickly sending colts run away with bruises they would remember. two colts ran at lynx, tackling him to the ground. Lynx repeatedly got punched in the face by a brown Pegasus sitting on his chest. Lynx's sight began to go blurry and somepony tackled the brown colt off of Lynx while Rainbow Dash and AJ helped Lynx up. Shaking his head, he realized that they were the only ones still at the playground. Thunderlane returned with the brown colt from earlier. Lynx wiped his nose. It wasn't broken thankfully. Lynx glared at the colt.

"So... are you going to stop bullying everypony?" The colt nodded. "So get the fuck out of here!" Lynx grabbed the Pegasus and flung him into the air, where the Pegasus flew off. Lynx turned away and looked at his new friends. They were all panting. Aj and Thunderlane seemed to have gotten out of it with out a scratch, while Rainbow Dash was bleeding from her nose and her right wing. Lynx's eyes widened.

"Oh damn. Rainbow? Can you still fly?" Rainbow Dash tried to flap her wings but cried out in pain. She shook her head. Lynx put her over his shoulder and looked at Aj and Thunder. "You two should head home. I got rainbow here. See ya tomorrow?" They both nodded before running or flying home. Lynx walked back to his house, cyan Pegasus in tow. "Hey rainbow, where's your house?"

"I ran away. I'm staying with a friend-ow!-until I decide to go back to Cloudsdale."
"Ok well i'll walk you back to your friends house when we get patched up. I hope Lightning and Rose won't be mad..."

It only took a few minutes for Lynx to reach his house. He cautiously opened the door, setting Rainbow Dash down. He was met with an angry looking Roseluck. She glared at Lynx. Lynx tried to smile at her to improve her mood, but it failed. She motioned for Rainbow Dash to follow her to the bathroom where most of the first aid was laid out. Lynx heard his name from the kitchen. Lightning Flash frowned at Lynx, leaning against the wall. Lynx shoved his hands in his pockets, avoiding Lightning's glare.

"Quite the bruises you have there Lynx. Mind explaining?"
"I got in a fight."

"Well at least you didn't lie. I thought Celestia told you to be on your best behavior?"
"She did. I was on my best behavior. But when that colt took my hat..." Lightning's glare intensified.

"All of that just for some Bucking hat?! What the hay Lynx?!" Lynx stared Lightning dead in the eye, giving his own glare from his golden, amber, eyes.

"Not just any damn hat Lightning! My dead Father's hat! The only thing I have left of him aside from his dog tags! Hell, I think that was a good enough reason! Plus! There was a whole gang of bullies who made lives horrible!" Lightning and Lynx stood there glaring at each other for a few minutes before giving in.

"Look, I understand that you had your reasons, it's just I don't want you to think that violence solves everything. From what you told me about your world, all violence did was buck you all over even worse each time." Lynx nodded.

"I'm sorry that I yelled at you, you were just looking out for me as usual." Lightning nodded.
"Ugh, just tell each other that you love each other and hug it out. Honestly, stallions, they're all the same." A irritated Roseluck said, Rainbow Dash agreeing.

"That's kind of...never mind. Love ya Lightning."
"Love ya too bud." And so they hugged.

"Hey, how did you guys even know about the fight?"
"It's a secret."

"Damn."
Then Lynx walked Rainbow Dash to her friend's home.

(Present time.)
"Not to interrupt or anything, but what does this have to do with the whole town knowing you?" Twilight asked, ditching her note pad.

Lynx, Fluttershy, Thunderlane, and Rainbow Dash cringed.
"Tell you what. I'll give you the short version. I have something to do."

(Six years earlier...)

The mayor of Ponyvile had called all of it's residents to discuss some of the new additions and problems. Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Thunderlane were too busy being chased by a angry manticore to know this, so they led it right to all of the townsfolk, causing them to run away in panic and fear. Except for Lynx, who held his ground, protecting a small orange Pegasus filly with purple hair. The manticore barreled right into Lynx, making them both crash to the ground. The orange filly finally got the message and ran off, gaining the attention of the manticore. The manticore, (Y'know what? Let's call him Fred.) "Fred" began to run after the fleeing filly, and Lynx ran after "Fred". Before "Fred" could pounce on the filly, Lynx tackled him, holding him down while he punched "Fred" over and over again. "fred threw Lynx off, and lynx crashed hard on the ground, snapping his ribs. Fred gave him no chance to escape. Fred raked his claws down Lynx's chest, tearing open long gashes. Lynx cried out in pain, and Fred continued to rake his claws down Lynx's body, inflicting screams of pain from Lynx. Before Fred could sink his fangs into Lynx and finish him off, a bight flash was seen and Celestia and her guards appeared, attacking Fred. Fred, seeing that the guards could actually kill him, fled.

The residents of Ponyvile just watched in horror as Celestia rushed over to Lynx, who was bleeding out of so many gashes in his body, it wasn't even funny. Celestia teleported Lynx and herself away to a hospital in canterlot where they would successfully save lynx with medicine and Celestia's raw power. Did Ponyvile hear anything about him being alive? Nope.

(Present time.)

Twilight and Spike looked at him disbelievingly. Lynx sighed.

"You probably don't believe me huh? Well I have proof." Lynx took off his shirt and tank top making the mares blush as they looked at Lynx's toned body. Even though Lynx was a brown color, even that couldn't have hidden scars from injuries that bad. Yet there was nothing. Lynx grinned. "Nothing right? Well I asked Celestia to cloak my scars so it didn't horrify ponies. Rarity, Flutters, you might want to close your eyes." They didn't. "Your funeral then..." Lynx traced a crescent moon on his chest and...Rarity fainted. Everypony eles' eyes widened in horror. After a few minutes, Lynx traced the moon again, making it all appear normal.

"L-lynx...? H-how are you still...a-alive...?" Twilight shakily asked. Lynx shrugged.
"Ask Celestia. I haven't the slightest clue." Lynx put on his shirt, his hat, and grabbed his sword. "Now I have to do something real quick. I'll be right back." Lynx left the library and set off, gazing at the night sky.
