To Become a God

It took a while, but everyone around the school eventually got used to having a God in the form of a giant horse among them. I started doing classes again the weekend after the Fall Formal, and I started to assist with the teaching.

Most of the time I would be in Arceus's form, but sometimes I would change into my human form. Wherever I went, I would always have my sword and hidden blades with me, just in case something... unexpected happened. Everyone knew my insignia, and they would sometimes come to me for help.

If I was outside my room, I would spend my time in the gym, using the weights to increase my strength and running around the track to increase fitness and stamina. If I was inside my dimension, most people would see me sleeping. Full size, nothing around me but purple space with stars in the distance.

With all the extra fitness exercises I was doing, I started to get out of my old gamer body, and into one that took care of themselves. I wasn't fat or anything, I was actually quite skinny, I also had a bit of muscle on me, but nothing special. Now though, I had well defined muscles, no excess fat and I could run for miles without stopping. Oh, and I was also getting much better with my free-running.

Classes proved useless for me, seeing as I already knew everything. I just had to call upon the information. So as I stated before, Celestia and Luna started letting me teach some of them. It was still early in the year though, about May, and so I still had a while to go until I finished school.

I got to know Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rarity and Sunset Shimmer better as well. Some afternoons, I would go with the girls in town to do whatever, sometimes they would come with me to watch me train. I spent a lot of time alone with Sunset Shimmer. She would often come to me when I was training or doing something in my pocket dimension. I would always stop what I was doing and help her out.

The first couple of times she visited, she would cry into my shoulder while I just hold her supportively. Slowly, those visits became fewer and fewer as the other students didn't give her as much of a hard time. One time, sadly, someone decided they would pose as Sunset, and started revealing everyone's secrets on this website. I didn't have any secrets of my own put on there. No one knew anything about me. Sunset came rushing in and hid in a corner somewhere. I had to trace down the sobs from her to find where she was. She expected me to give her the cold shoulder as well.

"What's wrong, little one?" I asked her. Little one or young one were the nicknames I used for her, ever since that night.

"*sob* Just go away... No one wants me..."

I knelt down next to her. "Why would they think that?"

"Someone decided they would make a fake MyStable account... and set it up to look like me... They started to reveal our friends secrets that they shared at some of our sleepovers."

Yeah, I skipped those sleepovers. I knew they would be awkward.

"Now everyone in the school has their secrets up there... and they're all blaming me."

"Not everyone." I retorted. "They don't have mine, since no one knows anything embarrassing about me, and there must be someone who doesn't have their secrets up there."

"But who would do this?"

"Do the girls have anyone that would know these things about them, apart from their friends?" I asked.

"I think so... Yeah! Applebloom, Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo. They're really close with them. Applebloom is Applejack's sister, and Applejack's nickname was publicized first. Sweetie Bell is Rarity's sister, and she could've gotten the photos I took from my phone when we slept. Scootaloo would be in on whatever they did."

"Can you use your phone to search up the fake account?"

"I should be able to." Sunset took out her phone and opened up MyStable. She went to the page with the account and started browsing through everything on there.

"No, no, no, no, no," She continued like that for a while. "No, no, no. There's nothing here on them. Everyone else, apart from you, has a secret or two on there."

"Then how about we go visit them?"

She nodded and got on my back. One thing that I found helped her relax was letting her ride on my back. Somehow, it soothed her. When she turned over a new leaf, she rode me a lot. I walked out the door connecting my dimension and the school together, and started roaming the halls, keeping an eye out for the CMC.

We searched inside the school and couldn't find them, so we headed outside. When I looked out the back of the school, I saw a line of students heading into an unused shed.

"Interesting..." I muttered.

"What was that?" Sunset asked. I simply moved forward to the line and waited at the end. We had to wait for a bit, but we eventually made it to the front.

"Next!" A voice sounded through the door. I set Sunset down and changed to my human form. We walked in and were met with a pitch black room.

"What secrets do you wish to impart on me?" The voice asked.

"Let me handle this." I whispered to Sunset. She nodded and I addressed the voice.

"We both have a secret to give you. We know who Anonymiss is. So come on out, Applebloom, Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo. We both think you have a lot of apologising to do."

"How did you- I mean, that is very interesting." The voice continued to talk, but I zoned it out. I focused on where the voice was originating from, and started walking towards it. I soon found myself in front of a black wall, and I reached a hand out to touch it. It felt soft, like a- Curtain. I ripped it aside, and sitting there, wide eyed, was the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

"Um, hi?" Sweetie said. nervously.

"H-hey there Arceus. What're you doing?" Applebloom asked.

"We totally aren't Anonymiss or anything!" Scootaloo blurted out.

"Yeah, that's not going to work. Now, I want you to apologise to Sunset Shimmer and to all those that you wronged. I will report this to Celestia and Luna and they will dish out you punishment accordingly." I said.

"Aww!" They gave me the puppy dog face.

"Must! Not! Hurk! Give! In!" I pretended that I was choking or dying from it. I quickly stopped though. "Again, that's not gonna work." I said with a flat expression.

"Damn!" They snapped their fingers.

"Now come with Sunset and I and we will get this all sorted out."

They followed me obediently, and all five of us walked out of the shed. People in the line gave Sunset glares, and confused looks to the girls and I. We reached the office and I informed Celestia and Luna of what was going on.

"Thank you, Arceus, for bringing this to our attention." Celestia said.

"No problem, I'm gonna go back to my room for now. See you later." With that, I left the office and went back to my dimension.

The girls were all excited whenever they caught me training. To Rainbow, Applejack and Sunset, it was the coolest thing ever. To Fluttershy and Rarity, it was the most shocking thing ever. To Pinkie, she just cartwheeled around the room.

One day, I was half sleeping, half awake when Celestia and Luna both came in my room. They both gasped when they saw my size, which woke me up completely.

"Hello Celestia, hello Luna. What brings you two to my humble abode?"

They snapped out of their daze. "We are here to inform you of the upcoming CHS Musical Showcase. During this time, we both want you to stay in your human form. There may be other schools attending, and we don't want them to see you like this." Celestia said.

I chuckled at that. "That is fine Celestia. Say, could I also contend? It would be a bit of fun."

"Of course you may participate!" Luna exclaimed. "You are still a student after all. Just make sure that you are prepared. A lot of groups will be participating with you."

"Don't worry, I will be fine."

"Then we look forward to what you perform." Celestia said.

I nodded to them and they both turned and left.

"Welp, time to bring out the old trumpet again."
