“...If anyone has seen this boy please contact the C.P (Canterlot Police).” after the announcement the TV showed the picture of the boy: Flash Sentry.

Arctic turns his TV off and rubbed his eyes. “Twilight needs to be proctected.” He stood up and went to Mallory's office.

As he enters the office he sees Nightmare Moon and janitor Discord in a conversation with Mallory. They stopped when Arctic entered the office.

“I need to speak with you in private Mallory.” Arctic said in a very serious tone.

Nightmare Moon crossed her arms giving Arctic a 'seriously' look and Discord just shrugged, Mallory gave them a nod to leave and they both left his office.

Mallory took his seat behind his desk, his ellbows on it with his head resting on his hands. “I assume you're here about Flash's escape?”

“Yes and something else.” Mallory raised an eyebrow at this.

“Oh? And what will that be?” He asked surprised.

Arctic sat down in the chair on the opposite from Mallory's desk. "As you know I got hurt yesterday not only by Shining Armor's overprotecive instict but also by Flash himself.” Arctic was still pretty mad at Twilight's brother and how he let Sentry get to him.

Mallory gave him an unimpressed look. He knew what happend to Arctic yesterday. Since Trixie told Mallory everything as soon as she heard it from Arctic himself. But Arctic wasn't finished explaining.

“I haven't told anyone else about this, but since the trial... I felt that Flash was innocent in some way and when he attacked me yesterday he used magic! Flash has no magic in him. I'm certain of it.”

Mallory stood up from his desk turned around looking at the window with his hands on his back. He sighed. “So you think somebody controlled him.” Arctic nodded.

“The only person who can control somebody else and made him or her to use magic is... you.”

Mallory snareld. He turns around looking at Arctic. They both keep staring at each other.

Then Mallory started laughing. “Very cunning of you Arctic but no, it wasn't me.”

“Oh no? Then who was the one who controlled Flash?” Arctic asked, crossing his arms. “The only magic that can control somebody and let that person use magic can only be done if someone used CHAOS magic!

Mallory still laughing... “I applaud you Arctic you know my magical book inside and outside. If you really want to know....” Mallory stopped his laughing and snapped his fingers. The room went completely dark.

A white screen appeared out of the dark. Showing a picture of a beautiful and magical land.

“It's our home. Do you remember?” Mallory stood behind him.

“Like it was yesterday” Arctic answered. Inside he was full of joy to see a glimpse of his home. Sadly he can't go back. Not after what happend. A small tear dripped from his cheek but his face showed no emotion. Mallory placed a hand on Arctic's right shoulder. Smiling at him. “Everything will turn out well Arctic. You are not the only one who got banished to this world.” Arcitc looked back at Mallory and nodded in response.

“Now to answer your question.” Mallory snapped his fingers again and the picture changed to two strange creatures. Both the creatures had the head of a pony but their bodies where made out of all different kind of animals. Like a batwing, an eagleclaw, a snake tail.... The one on the right was male and the creature on the left was female. “These are my parents Discord an Eris. Both of them creatures of chaos.”

“I already know that! Just cut to the chase.” Arctic interuppted.

Mallory frowned at his reaction. “Very well” as he continued. “I'm also a creature of chaos but I wanted to use my chaos magic for good instead of evil. My father, mother and older sister didn't agree with me so they banished me here trough a magical portal created by them.”

Arctic raised an ayebrow. “You have an older sister?” Mallory nodded. “That's new for me” Arctic said. “Continue.”

“I also taught you that some of the people in this world have an alternate 'self' in Equestria. Like the Discord in this world. Except this Discord never had met Eris. So there's no 'alternate me in this world. Since your kind doesn't exist in this world there's no alternate you here either.”

Arctic was holding his chin with his right hand (his right hand was now healed from the short fight with Rainbow Dash 4 weeks ago. “Don't tell me that Discord and Eris from our home world were controlling Flash from the very beginning.”

Mallory shook his head. “No Arctic, and the Discord from this world either. He doesn't even have chaos magic. But I could be wrong.”

“Then who was it?” Arctic asked impatiently. He wanted to know who controlled Flash and tried to rape his girlfriend.

“I have 3 suspects. Discord, Eris and my older sister: Screwballs.” Mallory showed the pictures of his true parents and his sister. His sister was a lavender pony. She had curly purple mane and tail with white streaks. Looking at her eyes she seemed hypnotized. On her head she carried a hat with a propeller.

“Hmmm” Arctic tapped his chin. Trying to figure out which one of these three could be the culprit.

“Don't get your hopes up Arctic. I don't think any of them have done it.” Mallory added.

Arctic his eyes started to turn red for a second. But he kept his cool. “Explain.”

“Before you came to this orphanage, I had a visit from my parents. They came to apologize for banishing me to this world. They told me that six ponies 'reformed' them to use their magic for good instead of evil... wel most of the time.” Mallory chuckeld at that last part.

“But my sister refused their offer. She liked being bad. Creating chaos and taking over Equestria and the entire world. It took the magic of my parents, the princesses and myself to defeat her. After we locked her up in the sarcophagus of the forever sleep. The princesses wanted to sent her to tartarus. But my parents refused. They wanted to keep her in their Chaos Castle in the Chaos zone. So that they can visit her from time to time. So that's why I think none of them could have done this. My parents are reformed and my sister is locked up.” Mallory finished explaining. “So that's why I think none of them controlled Flash's actions.”

Then Arctic realized something. "Older sister locked up in a sarcophagus of forever sleep?"

“Mallory! Does that sarcophagus has puprle colored stripes on it with a keyhole in the center?”

That was the first time that Mallory sees Arctic worrying about something. “Why yes, how did you know that?” He asked Arctic.

“Well after we cured Twilight from the magical flu. I had a nightmare that someone or something was gonna be freed from a sarcophagus in a dark castle in a world that I have never seen before.” Arctic explained.

Now it was Mallory's turn to worry. “That world you saw, what did it look like?”

Arctic rubbed his fingers over his chin. “Hmmm... wel there was … no ground to stand on. Everything was floating around: trees, rocks, rivers...all of it in unnatural colors. Like blue leaves, purple trees, red colored rivers.... It was like some kind of fantasy world or a chaotic world.”

“You dreamed of the chaos zone and my parents's home. Believing my sister is gonna be freed from her sarcophagus isn't it?” Mallory interuppted.

Arctic was flabbergasted but he didn't show it. He looks at Mallory with a serious look. Something bad was about to happen. “Do you think it was real?” Mallory asked.

“No, windigo's can't get visions. My kind can only do one thing. Create a cold winter through hatred. Well except me.” Arctic shoved his hands in his pockets and looked away a with sad look.

Mallory sat back behind his bureau. Taking a paper and a pen. “Arctic, we'll continue this conversation later. I need to get back to work.”

Arctic wanted to know more but never the less he slightly bowed to Mallory and he left the office.


Back in his room, he let himself fall on his bed. He was about to fell asleep until he realized something. “Tomorrow I have that project with Twilight.” He groanes.


The next morning Arctic felt terrible when he was walking to CHS. Maybe because Anthony annoyed him how Twilight will 'reward' him when they get an A+ on their project they worked on together.

Arctic knew what Anthony meant with that 'reward' and he gave Anthony a knuckle sandwich. Despite his black eye and his nose.

"Mallory should sent Anthony to Crystal Prep Acadamy to teach him some manners. If you get punished there, you would never try a prank again." Arctic tought, he was already imagining the punishment Anthony would get. A big smile formed on his face.

Before Arctic left for school Sonata suggested that maybe he should stay at the orphanage so she could help her “big brother”. As stubborn as a mule Arctic went to school no matter how much Sonata begged. He would have stayed but since Adagio is starting to flirt again...

"I need to make it up with Sonata when I get back.... some tacos would do!!!" He then put up his headphone, listing to some music while walking to school.


Ariving at CHS, Arctic went to his locker to grab all his books for today's lessons. When he closed his locker he felt two purple arms embracing him from behind.

“Hi Sweetie.” said Twilight holding him in a hug.

Arctic felt embarassed, the whole school laid their eyes on the two. Some students started whispering “Did Twilight just say 'sweetie' to Arctic?”

“Yeah, I guess so.”

“Does that mean.... Oooooh.” Some girls were starting to get exited for the new couple. They are ready to spread the news around the school.

Arctic on the other hand didn't like it. “Don't 'hi sweetie' me.” He replied dryly at her.

Twilight released him and gave him a push on his chest. “C'mon you buster! I know you love it deep down in your heart.” She started teasing him.

Arctic rolled his eyes but decided to play along. “In your dreams Sparkle.” He teased back.

“You're no fun!” She replied and crossed her arms, giving him a grumpy look. Arctic looked at her and he was about to 'make it up' when suddenly....

“TWILIGHT!” Hearing her name Twilight almost jumped 2 meters in the air while Arctic stood still like a statue.

Rarity grabbed Twilight's shoulders and started shaking them while overwelming Twilight with questions.

“Is it true? Are you and Arctic an item now? Ooooh is he a good kisser? Have you.., hmpff.”

Two light orange colored hands and 2 cyan colored hands grabbed Rarity and dragged her away from Twilight.

“Land sakes Rarity! Do ya always have to overeacted when there's a new couple in the school?” Applejack commented while releasing Rarity around the corner of the hallway.

“Yeah, at least give her the time to talk with her new... boyfriend.” Rainbow pointed with her tumb behind her at Twilight and Arctic. “You were interuppting them.” She wispered in Rarity's ear.

Rarity blushed, releazing her mistake. Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Sunset Shimmer joined the rest of the group. They were looking with their heads around the corner looking at Arctic and Twilight. They were in a conversation with each other but none of the six girls could understand what the two were saying.

“What do you think they are talking about?” Fluttershy wondered.

“I have no idea! But I need to plan a 'live-happeliy-ever-after-party'. Oooh it's gonne be fun!” Pinkie whispered full of energy.

“You sure about that Pinkie? Arctic isn't really a party-guy and certaintly not a guy who likes your cupcackes.” Sunset Shimmer added.

“Aaaw, but I have to try maybe Twilight can persuade him to come.”

“Maybe... Girls!” Sunset alerted the other girls. “Twilight is coming to us. Act normal!”

The girls went into their regular positions. Rarity putted some make-up on her, Appeljack started eating an apple, Fluttershy feeded Angel, her pet rabbit, a cat and a little blue bird, Rainbow dash started kicking her football with her knees, Pinkie started to blew a balloon that she grabbed from her skirt? Finally, Sunset Shimmer pretented to read her book from history class.

Twilight was humming a song as she walked around the hallway spotting al her friends. “Morning girls.” As she waved to her friends.

“Morning darling.” Rarity said as she put her make-up in away. “So sorry about what happend a few minutes earlier. I'm just so happy for you.” Rarity smiled and placed her hand behind her head and blushing “guess I'm not such a bad matchmaker after all.

“What did you and Arctic actually talk about Twilight? If you don't mind me asking...” Fluttershy asked shyly.

Twilight blushed and started to play with her hair a bit. “Well we were talking about our project today and...”

“LAME!” Rainbow interuptted. “Is that all a couple of two eggheads talk about? C'mon Twilight give us something juicy.”

Twlight glared at Rainbow Dash. “I was about to tell you until you interrupted me.”

Rainbow just shrugged and gave a sheepish smile.

So Twilight told her friends that she was sick last weekend and the sickness she had called the 'magical flu'. She explained them that a person who has magic and keeps it inside yourself it can give you the magical flu. “Every time you cough or sneeze magical dust escapes your mouth and something strange can happend like snow during a summer day, or your house changes in treehouse.” As she explained Twilight sees her friends faces flabbergasted.

Twilight winked her eyes. “Why are you all looking at me that way?”

Applejack was the first to respond. “Sugarcube, we've also had the magical flu”

“What?!” Twilight was surprised hearing this.

Then Pinkie jumped over Applejack. “It'strueyoushouldhaveseenusWeallhadponyearsandlongponytailsohanddidImentionthatFluttershyandRainbowDashhadwingsandRarityandSunsethadhornsontheirforeheads? OHOHandthenwe. Her mouth was shut by Rainbow Dash.

“Then some 'friends' of Arctic showed up at our homes.” As Rainbow continued. “I think their names were Iron and Aria?”

“They told us that they can help us so w-went along with them.” Fluttershy added. “They lead us to an orphanage. Inside we went to a living room and then we heard 3 beautiful singing voices putting us all asleep.”

“When we woke up our ears tails, wings and horns were gone and Arctic was there with Iron, Aria, some other girls and a man named Mallory. Arctic said that we are cured now and that we were allowed to leave. But Arctic stayed with us until we were al back home safetly.” Sunset Shimmer finished their little adventure.

Twilight had the happiest look on her face. "I knew it! I knew there was good in him al along." She tought. Then the bell rang. It was time for their first period: History. “Wish me luck with my project!”

“We will sugarcube.” Applejack said as Twilight sprinted to her classroom trying to catch up with Arctic. “C'mon girls let's get to our class.” And they followed Twilight to history class.


“You got a B+ for your project?” Sunset comforted Twilight. She was not happy about her score. “But that's a good score!”

“No it's not!” Twilight exclaimed. “Arctic and I worked so hard on that Project of the Philippines in 1986! Mister Olden Scroll should have given us an A+.”

Realizing that Twilight is being stubborn about her score her friends decided to change the subject.

“Come darling let us get some lunch.” Everyone agreed and they went to the cafetaria. When they got everything they went to their usual spot to eat. Twilight, was still a little dissapointed but that soon changed.

“So Twilight.” Twilight looked up seeing Rainbow Dash talking to her. “We've all been thinking... and after what Arctic did for you... and us. Even when I still don't like him.” She admitted. “He can come and sit with us.”

Twilight was surprised at this.“Really?”

“Yipper dippers!” Pinkie added excitely.

Twilight then quickly stood up and went to Arctic to invite him at their table.


Arctic was eating with Vinyl and Octavia this time. They were one of the few students he actually likes. They don't ask him questions about his life or what he should do. Arctic also liked Vinyl's music. He listens to it when he's training his powers in the secret room of the orphanage and Octavia liked Arctic because he's one of the few people in this school who listens to her cello preformances. Her music also helps him to relax when Anthony or Iron are bothering him.

They were enjoying their lunch until Arctic received a message from his Y-Phone. It was from Mallory.

'They need to know the truth. Be careful with Flash on the loose. Protect Twilight and her friends.'

'Not good!' Arctic thought. 'If Mallory wants me to confess to Twilight and her friends then that means something really bad is about to happen. Maybe I did have a vision?' He wondered.

Arctic was so deep in his thoughts that he didn't hear Twilight coming to him. She was blushing a little. She held her hands on her back and stomped her left shoe on the ground making cirkels. “Hey Arctic.”

“Huh?” Arctic shooked his head. “Oh hello Twilight euhmm....” Arctic was stumbling over his words.... “What do you want?” He added coldly. But Twilight was getting used to his. After all he's her boyfriend and she loves him. She knows that there's good in him. “I was wondering if you would like to join me and my friends at our table?”

“Sure” Arctic simply said

“Really?”

“Yeah, but only if Vinyl and Octavia can sit with us.” He added.

“Of course they can come sit with us.” as she waved her arm to follow her.

As everyone took their places. Everything went silent. Rainbow didn't like the silence. She snorted and stood up and walks over to Arctic. With a stern look she looked down at him.

“Arctic Ice” She said with a serious tone. Arctic raised and eyebrow. He wasn't imitated by her attitude

“What?” He felt tension rising between them. Then something happend that Arctic didn't expect from Rainbow Dash.

“I'm … Sorry, that I broke your arm a few weeks ago. You were right that I was a coward at that moment and that I let my pride get the better of me.”

Arctic had a slightly surprised look on his face. But the rest of the girls had their mouths open from the unexpected turn of events.

Arctic stood up, in front of Rainbow. He looks at her for a few seconds. “Forget it” Rainbow lowered her head, mad that Arctic didn't accept her apology. As she looks down Rainbow sees Arcitc helding out his hand.

“Let's by-gones, be by-gones.” Rainbow gladly shook his hand. Then the gang including Vinyl and Octavia saw Arctic showing something unique, a smal smile on his face.

“YAAAAAAAAAAAAY ARCTIC SMILED!!!” Pinkie exclaimed. The entire school was still for a moment. Everyone stopped eating, looking at Arctic.

Arctic groaned at all the unexpected attention. “What are you all looking at? Eat!” Then he turned his attention to -Pinkie and glares at her. “Don't do that again Pinkamena!” The look on his face made all the girls laugh. Arctic had to admit it was indeed a little funny.

Soon lunchtime was over and everyone went to their two last classes of the day. Art and Gym.

During Art-class. Their teacher gave them a dedication. Make a portret of your friend. So Arctic made a portret of his girlfriend Twilight.

He made a portret where Twilight was smiling, holding a book in her right hand, holding her left cheek with her other hand. While looking away with a beautiful smile on her face. When Twilight sees Arctic's great work she gave him a quick kiss on the lips. To show him that it is beautifull.

Twilight on the other hand wasn't that good at drawing someone else. Her portret of Arctic reminded him of a famous artist called Picasso. He smiled at her knowing that he still liked it. She blushed a little and Arctic kissed her back.

All her friends 'awed' at the scene. Except for Rainbow. She wasn't in to that roamance stuff... for now.

As they went to their Gym class Arctic quickly ran up to his girlfriend. “Twilight can we go to your house after school? It's important and your friends need to come too.”

“Of course, my mom and dad would be glad to see you again and there's also someone who needs to apologize to you for giving you that black eye and that bloody nose.” She pointed to his face.

“Don't remind me.” He mumbled. They then walked hand in hand to the Gym-class.


Unkown place, dark place.

Enjoy your time with her Arctic Ice. As soon as I have the key. I shall be free and take revenge on you and my idiot brother Mallory!!!!
