By the Nightly

Luna's standing at the entrance of the hospital looking very happy to see me. She's wearing a casual sundress and no crown, it must be her time off today, either that or she snuck out of the castle......again. Her light blue hair is rather messy and ungroomed. 'Did she stay up all day playing videogames again?'

"Hello to thou too Nightly." I cringe slightly at the 'Royal Canterlot Voice' it's not as loud as it should be, but it's still pretty loud.

"Luna vhy are you using zat voice?"

"Tis traditional when addressing our subjects." 'she's still using that stupid excuse?!'

"Vell I'm not vone of your subjectz, I'm your friend and so is Screwball, so please stop it." I practically plead.

She thinks about it for a moment, "Alright Nightly only for you." I let out a small smile at her for using her regular voice. 'THANK GOD!'

Screwball jumped up with happiness behind us then tackle-hugged Luna, "Yay! The team's all here!" she exclaimed in her chipper tone. 'Maybe not all of us, but yes it's been a while.'

"Yes, I must say it's good to see you two after so long." Luna agreed as she returned the hug for a while until I pulled Screwball off her.

"Ja' sehr gut, by ze vay Luna vhy are you here?" I ask changing the subject.

"Oh yes, I came here because I heard one of the Elements of Harmony was saved by a stranger from the Everfree Forest, so I wanted to visit her to see how she's doing."

'That tale sounds all too familiar.'

"Luna vhat vas zhis girl'z name?"

"Pinkie Pie, the Element of Laughter, why?" she turned her gaze to my gifts and the man cowering in-between me and Screwball, "Okay maybe I should ask why you're here, Nightly. I can understand why there's a cowering man here, but you never were one for sweets or flowers." she shot me a suspicious look.

'Huh so Pinkie was an Element....wow.'

"I saved her in ze forest zhis morning, how did ze newz travel so fast?"

Screwball shrugged, "Small town?"

Twi (seriously what the hell is her name) stepped forward and tapped my shoulder, "Um...I made my assistant Spike send a letter to Princess Celestia about Pinkie return."

"How? Normal mail can't reach her. Unless you have a direct magical line to her, of course." she nods at me and I just cock my head in confusion.

'hmm...Is she?'

"Ma'am may I ask your name please?" she nods.

"My name is Twilight Sparkle, I'm Princess Celestia's Royal Student. Now I want to ask you: Who are you and what are you doing here?." she counters.

'Huh, she still doesn't trust me. I guess that the others are the rest of the Elements if they're here to see Pinkie and haven't left yet.

I let out a sigh, "Mein name is Nightly unt Celestia vantz zhis "man" brought in for desertion and murder." she seemed to flinch at the word murder, but I just shrugged it off, "Zhen I'll spend mein time vith Screwball vhen I get mein pay.

"You say that, but you don't look much like a guard." Rainbow pointed out.

'Wait, they think that I'm...' I fell on the floor laughing loudly at the mere thought of me in that stupid armor which made me laugh louder. Soon enough Luna and Screwball got the same thought and joined in laughing loudly, while the other five gave us looks of confusion.

"What's so dang funny?" Rainbow said with a huff.

"Y-y-you...really...think zat I'm a guard, really?"

"Yes." I pause my laughter.

"Really?" they nod.

I burst out laughing again with Luna and Screwball rolling around me this time.

Rainbow Dash apparently had enough of our laughing, "Okay, what's so bucking funny?!"

"You think zat I'm a guard. I find zat funny. Tell me have you ever heard the term bounty hunter?" everyone except Twilight shake their heads then Twilight gave me look that said "Are you crazy?".

"Are you crazy?" (see?) "Bounty hunting was banned 50 years ago. You can't be a bounty hunter."

"That may be true Twilight Sparkle, but my dear sister hired Nightly as the exception." Luna steps in.

"Why? What makes this him the exception? Why is he so special?" Twilight argues clearly losing patience with the secrets.

I flash her a light grin, "Classified." I say with the grin never leaving my face.

She turns her head to me shoot me a glare then turned to Luna with hope that she would tell her, "Princess?". Luna simply shook her head.

"Why is he so special? Is it because he's fast? If so I wanna race 'em" Rainbow added in. She was quickly silenced by looks from everyone.

I raise my hands up gesturing them to calm down, "Listen I'll give you all vhy if you promise not to be mad." they nod then give me eager looks, "I'm ze exception because mein power is equal to if not more powerful zhan ze Elementz." I was instantly met with all five of them breaking their promises.

"What the hay do ya' mean you're more powerful that's impossible!" Applejack yelled. 'I just won't respond to that one.'

"You've got some nerve to say that in front of me Nightly." Rainbow Dash threatened. '...'

"I must disagree also." Rarity added. 'That has been the most respectful one so far.'

Fluttershy hid behind Twilight after all the yelling started. 'No scratch that, THIS one has been the most respectful.'

"Nightly you can't be more powerful it's magically impossible, right princess?" Luna remained quiet, "Right?" Nothing.

I had an idea on how she could prove that and it made me smile. "If you truly feel zat vay zhen fight me. Each of you have ze exact power as your Element, ze jewelery is just a vay to release it." I explain with my excited smile never leaving my face. They exchanged glances giving me a determined look.

"We accept." Twilight announces.

"Bring it on!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed cracking her knuckles.

"Ah'll buck ya' to next Tuesday." Applejack said darkly.

Rarity and Fluttershy looked rather unsure. 'I guess they didn't want this....sorry for what I'm gonna do.'

"Let'z go zhen."

((Yes I'm making Nightly and five of the Mane six fight each other or maybe I'll just have RD, AJ, and Twi do it. You all can decide for me.))
