“Right, well now we just need to wake him up!” was the first thing i heard, though it sounded oddly muffled. As i tried to get my vision un-blurred i heard someone say

“well just dump some water on him *Purple*.” (No respect will be given to her until she stops being so naive).

“If you do I will most certainly not be pleased.” I said, finally recovering my vision to find trying to move, discovering i was strapped to a big, circular machine. (Think smaller version of The Incredibles cuff-prison) with other machines beeping and recording information. ‘Huh, How did i miss those beeps?’ I wonder, slightly bemused.

“Oh your awake!” *Purple* says sounding excited.

“No my name is Omnus, not excited,” I deadpan, “Now why am I hear? And why am i cuffed like this?”

“ Well then Ominous-“

“My name is not Ominous, it is Omnus. As i just said.”

“well Sorry ‘Omnus’ *What a terrible name*” she says, almost to quite to hear at that last part. I decide not to comment about vampires. “But, anyway, I want to study you, so you just answer some questions and ill just jot it down here! Ok? Then well get to Finding out how resilient you are!”

“Did the princesses-“

“PrincESS!” she says, emphasising the ‘ess'.

“Princesses”

“Princess!”

“Princesses”

“Princess!”

“Princesses”

“Princess!”

“Princess”

“Princesses!!”

“Oh good, you agree with me that both of them are princesses.”

“Wha- but, never mind.”

“The answer to my question?”

“Yes the princesS knows about this, she was curious herself.” She said, Nervously glancing back and forth… I forgot how bad ponies are at lying ( except for the direct royal family, after all, I taught them how!).

“Uh huh,” I reply, shifting into the form of a kookaburra and laughing at her “I’ll just go check with THEM if you don’t mind, bye-bye Purple!”

“No, Wai-“ is all i hear, already leaving through an open window… I was under a tree-house… alrighty then.

As I was flying towards the Everfree Castle I noticed another catle off a ways, on mount Canterlot… hmm now that I'm thinking about horse puns I wonder what happened to Gallophrey, oh well.

I decided to go check out that castle instead, i mean, i was making good time anyway and it looks so SHINY and bright… and i’m a bird… Ok i’m going to shit on peoples heads then kooks-call them. But I’m also going to check out the castle so *Sticks young out somehow*

I arrived at the bright and shiny castle-city-fortress-thing and think, ‘ Oh My God it looks a lot like those fairy tales of Camelo- oh wait. it is exactly that isn't it… Oh well, one way to find out! To wherever the throne room is!

I was in the throne room, just sitting on top of the throne, when Tia and the innocent side of Lu walked in, saying

“We must find him sister! He said he hath a message for us and he hath  been gone for two days!” from Lu.

“What, only want to find me because of the message?” I said, shifting forms and angling my left off the top of the glorified chair.

“Wha- NO!” Lu was blushing at this point, I don’t think she thought those words through before she said them.

“We wanted to hear the message, but we are happy that you are okay Omny!” Tia said, looking adorable form the blush, but still hot from the eye thing. “Where were you  anyway?”

“Oh me? That purple one kidnapped me, she forgot i could shape shift, said something about testing my resilience. It sounded like she wanted to dissect me.” I said, flippantly..

“*PURPLE* kidnapped you? I knew she was slightly eccentric with her studies but this is way to far!” Tia said, apparently this Purple, If thats even her real name, had mental problems… and was an element of harmony…

“So who is she anyway?” I asked, befuddled from Tia’s reaction.

“She’s my personal stude-“ As she said that someone who looked like a preposterously prissy pony ponce barged in.

“Aunty You must make time to see me! I am simply to important to ignore like the common rabble!”

Said this cunty looking pale fellow with blond hair and a blue bowtie… A BLUE BOWTIE!

“Well you interrupted my meeting with them… Fuck it. I challenge you to a duel of honour, stakes are that, If I win, you have your prince-hood revoked until I see fit.” I say, entertained and slightly insulted.

“Very well you filth.” He spat. “And if i win you are not allowed to ever be in my view.”

“Ok then! A duel it is! We have to shake to bind it though.” i say back

“HMPH! I do not shake with Commoners!” you could see him spitting.

“Omnus is a prince of Equestria, through saving our mother when she was pregnant with us.” Tia said, I had actually forgotten about my prince-hood, fond memories i had getting that.

———————————————————————————————————————————

I was out hunting in my forest, now known as the Everfree, I was sneaking through the bushes and checking the traps that i had laid, when I heard something crashing through the canopy above, sounding close by. I quickly changed direction and rushed through the bush as quietly as i could, while still moving fast.

I found myself on the edge of a clearing, a carriage with oil lamps on it broken, fire close by, two dead corpses in Ironbark armour hitched to the front. I decided to look in the carriage, which had turned on it’s side, and as i looked in I hoped that whoever was in there was alive.

There was! It was a lady, unconscious on her side, obviously pregnant, in the back seat. She had red hair and white fur, she was bleeding out of he side and hip. I tried to wait her up by whispering ‘ hey, wake up.’ but that obviously didn't work, so I grabbed he by the arms (Noticing wings on her back)and hoisted her on top of the carriage, until i was able to get up, I jumped down off the carriage and grabbed her form the top, carrying her bible style, I noticed bushes rushing and sprinted for the edge of the clearing that i had come from. I barely made if before i saw wooden heads poking out and sniffing the clearing.

About an hour later I had made it home to my shack, and gotten a pot of water on to boil. I had washed her wounds as well as i could… which meant she was in her undergarments on my bed, however i had wrapped her wounds in bandages and gotten her under my blankets. So now it was just a matter of time before she woke up.

About five minutes later, whenI had a pot of tea ready and was about to pour it into some cups I heard her groan, I quickly turned around, putting down the tea, and went over to her.

“Can you hear me?” i asked. Unsure about her state of consciousness.

She groaned again, blinking. “W-Where am I?” she asked, sounding very afraid.

“Just relax, You are at my home, you crash landed in the forest and i brought you here.

“Which forest? How are my guards? Who are you?” she asked in rapid succession, seeming to have a slight panic attack.

I went and brought the tea over, setting the tray down and pouring her a cup.

“I will answer your questions in order. One, we are in the Everfree. Two, I’m afraid your guards died on impact. Three, My name in Omnus Compositae.” I said, trying to sound as calming as possible… It appears it didn’t work, as she appeared to panic a bit more. So i said “ Don’t worry, I am the Apex Predator of this forest, nothing will come for you and yours.” It actually appeared to work a bit.

“Well thank you for you hospitality but i really must be going.” she said, trying to get up. I gently pushed her back down saying

“You aren’t leaving until those wounds heal, you got hit in the hip so if the stitches come undone you might damage your child.” I said bluntly… Hey I lived in a forest cut of from civilisation for thirty years, I don’t really talk to anyone that often, just be glad I don’t rhyme every sentence. Could you imagine that! I mean what if i wanted some orange juice? ‘Could i please have some juice of O, i thank you, bartender Moe.’

I gently pushed her down, laying he back on the bed. “You need your rest to let them heal, before you ask I will sleep on the floor, after all you need the bed more than I do.”

“Thank you.” she said smiling slightly.

“It is no problem, May i ask your name?”

“Faust, my name is Faust.”

I nursed her back to health for a couple weeks, during which we just talked about anything really, philosophy, current event, how i got here (Still don’t know how) and other things. I ended up getting her to talk about her family and found out she was having twins. Congratulating her I asked what their name were and what gender they were.

She said and I quote. “Well we don’t really have any names for them yet, but it appears they like the heavenly bodies, like the sun and moon. They are both girls as well.”

“Well why don’t you name them Celestia and Luna then? They are both pretty names and seem fitting if they like the heavenly bodies.” I asked.

“Hmm, i may just do that.” She said smiling.

Eventually we were found by a group of guard… who proceeded to arrest me for ‘kidnapping their queen’. I was taken to the Everfree castle (which was actually Where Ponyville is), along with Faust, who was now, i estimated, about a week from bursting.

I was interrogated then released when Faust had a talk with her husband.

He made me a prince, which i fucking hated. And so i stayed in the castle, living the life of royalty and babysitting whenever Faust and Omnia (Her husband) where away, which was often, so i became Celestia and Luna’s best friend, and that remained throughout the years, when Omnia died, and Faust ‘Disappeared’, when Discord started his Chaotic Reign, When the sister beat him…i had tried to talk to luna about 50 years after Tirek, she started shutting me out and eventually went full 'Everyone will love me!' Even when we already did forcing me to hold her down and Celestia to use the elements on her.

About 100 years after that i left, going back to my forest and starting the weekly tea thing with Faust.
