Chapter 2

The alarm began to ring at the strike of eight o’clock. Alex’s eyes shot open as though he was waiting for the alarm to go off, he sat up straight and stretched to prepare himself for another day in the life of a normal super human that is housing seven aliens disguised as humans. The scruffy and tired man slowly pulled himself out of bed and turned the radio off, the slap of his hand nearly destroying it. The tired man then slumped his way into the bathroom where he groggily turned on the shower, the water pouring down like a waterfall as it sprung to life. Once the water was warm, Alex undressed and got into the shower; his body rejuvenated and was brought back to life as the hot water poured onto his head and back. After a only a couple of seconds in the steaming shower, Alex covered his head in shampoo as he began to sing. As Alex washed his back while he was singing he noticed two odd things about the situation. He noticed that he was able to reach the hard to reach parts of his back, and also noticed that his singing sounded good. He knew himself for being tone deaf and knew something was wrong with the situation. Alex slowly turned his head to see the curly pink haired girl in sopping wet pyjamas with a brush in her hand as she smiled at Alex. Alex continued to stare at her for his brain was still asleep, he wasn’t either a day or a night person and loved sleep. After a couple of seconds the tired man yelped as he tumbled pass the glass door and ran out of the bathroom slipping on the marble floor. Alex stormed into the bathroom with his hands covering him as he said in a very angry voice, “Pinkie… what are you doing in the shower?”

Pinkie giggled as she said with her eyes full of joy, “I was helping you out silly.” Pinkie realized that Alex was serious about what she was doing and got out of the shower sopping wet.

Alex shook his head as he got back into the shower, “You really need to control those impulses of yours.” With that, Alex pulled back the curtains and resumed his broken singing.

After Alex got out of the shower and had dressed in proper clothing, he walked down the stairs to see everyone already eating breakfast. Alex decided to use the music playing over the radio to teleport into the kitchen. The girls were enjoying some cereal and toast as they prepared for today when Alex appeared on the table saying in a bright and cheerful voice, “Morning everypony! Having breakfast? Most important meal of the day!”

Applejack watched as Alex hopped off the table as she said, “You’re lookin’ awfully joyful today.” The girls watched as Alex poured himself a delicious bowl of cavity causing Fruit Loops as a big grin spread across his face.

As he ate and slurped his cereal he said to the girls, “Yeah I am, today you’re all getting drivers licenses.” Alex looked over to see Dash perking up to the thought of drving as Alex shook his head as he said, “Sorry Dash but that doesn’t mean you’ll get to drive the bike soon. Sorry but this will be the first time you all drive.” Dash began to look a little sad but reminded herself that after a couple of years of good driving he would let her use it. Once the hungry hungry hippo was done eating his cereal he brought his bowl into the kitchen and said, “Get ready girls because we’re getting fake IDs.” The girls got up as Rarity and Twilight levitated the bowls over to the kitchen before heading into the garage, Alex was following close behind as he ate an energy bar as quickly as possible. The fake humans began to climb into the van one after another until they were all seated in and there was minimal trespassing of sides between Dash and Applejack. Alex remembered how angry he got when AJ kept telling Dash to keep her hands to herself, he nearly got them into a car crash because of it. Alex hopped in at the driver’s seat and turned the van on and began to head out.

As they pulled onto the highway Twilight broke the silence by saying, “So these, IDs… you said they are illegal right?”

Alex shook his head and said to her without looking away from the road, “Technically they are legal, they can’t be differentiated from actual IDs but it still isn’t legal because you didn’t earn it.”

The purple haired braniac shifted in her seat as she said, “So we could go to prison for this.”

Alex was beginning to get serious as he said, “Yes you could, but knowing you girls and seeing you all studied the driver’s handbook I’m pretty sure you will drive good enough to look legit.”

Twilight began to shake her head as she waved her hand across the radio and said, “I hope so.” With the wave of her hand the radio turned on to Alex’s favourite rock station as Nickleback began to play.

Dash began to hop in the back seat with a look of entertainment on her face as she said, “Oh yeah! Some rock and roll.”

Rarity simply rolled her eyes as a look of disgust swept over her face as she said, “We can’t possibly be listening to this, dear. This music is too… too…”

Alex didn’t have to look back at Rarity as he interrupted her sentence, “Uncivilized?” Rarity nodded her head as she reached for the radio to change the channel, as her hand drew nearer and nearer it began to glow. A look of anger and rage comically fell upon the driver’s face as he suddenly swerved the car almost into the oncoming lane as he shouted, “No one touches the radio!” As everyone calmed down after nearly hitting a transport truck Alex began to sing along with the song terribly mimicking Chad’s voice. Rarity gave a grunt of slight anger as she turned off the radio, now no one got to listen to music. Alex turned around to see the girls sitting with their arms crossed and he said, “Tell you what? After we get your drivers licenses we can go to a store and get you girls some music players. That way we all have something to listen to without having to share music,” Alex felt pretty proud of himself for coming to an agreement with the girls, they all had different tastes for music so mp3’s would definitely come in handy for them. Alex turned around a corner and pulled up to a house that showed its years, it looked to be about thirty years old or so. Alex turned off the car and turned to the passengers as he said, “Okay girls let’s go get some licenses. One by one the girls climbed out of the van and headed into the house. When Alex stepped in he shouted into the house, “Hey Ted! Let’s go!”

After a few seconds of waiting a man stepped out of the kitchen, he looked like he hadn’t shaved in a week or so and hadn’t showered for even longer. He looked at the women standing at the door and said to them as he took off his shirt, “Well hello. Come on in ladies.” When Ted turned around the girls could see ink was covering his entire back in a weird pattern. As they entered Ted began to reach for his pants as he said, “It’s getting hot in here, mind if I”

Alex walked by the girls and up to Ted as he said with a look of evil in his eyes, “Two things, first off you are terrible at seducing women and second these girls are like my daughter and trying to have sex with them when I’m around is like farting against thunder.” Alex picked up the man’s shirt and threw it at him as he said, “Put your shirt on, you look like a homo homo hobo.”

With that Ted stumbled onto his stool behind the camera and said to the girls, “Alright, Ms. Tara Strong could you please come sit on this stool in front of the white background.” Twilight willingly sat down on the stool and before she knew it she was getting her driver’s license printed off. The same process happened for every girl except for Pinkie who couldn’t stop smiling.

As Alex and Ted tried their best to get her to stop grinning Alex said, “You know what? When the police officer looks at it just tell ‘em you were on faulty Botox that day.” Pinkie simply nodded her head and in the last photo take she got to keep that face wide smile on her. Once that was over, Alex told the girls to go wait out in the van for him because he needed to talk to Ted. One by one the girls began to exit the house and get in the car, once the room was occupied only by Alex and Justin, Alex turned to the dirty man and said, “You haven’t told anyone yet have you?”

Ted shook his head as he said while scratching his beard, “I would never tell anyone about them, it’s only fair to keep a big secret after I made you keep a big secret of mine.”

Alex shook his head as he sat onto the couch, “Yeah well the secrets are completely different you know. On your hand the result might only be a bit of an adjustment to make with everyone around you while the government would be going after me and the girls for where they are from and what I can do. The Hero is a wanted criminal with a huge bounty on his head for being framed for killing and terrorism. I don’t even understand half the reasons why I’m wanted.”

Ted shook his head as he took a sip from his beer, “Probably because the government wants you for your abilities to become weapons. I have to tell you, the all black outfit is probably what’s causing this whole discomfort.” Ted though after a couple of seconds and had an idea which made him jump out of his seat as he said, “Get some more colors. Wear some white and call yourself Monochro.”

Alex began to think over the idea, some brighter colors would allow people to understand he has no bad intentions and he could go around during the day. Alex looked over at his friend as he said, “Well Ted, you inbred sum’bitch, that’s the best thing that has come out of your mouth aside from my fist.”

Ted waved his bottle of alcohol at him as he said, “Hey, just because I have a mullet, I lived in a trailer, I have a fuman-chu and my parents coincidentally had the same last name does not mean I’m inbred.”

Alex and Ted laughed for a couple of seconds as Alex said jokingly, “Your right, it’s your sixth finger that means you’re inbred.” That seemed to make Ted laugh even more, after a few more minutes Alex finished his drink and said to his friend, “Listen, I have to go, me and the girls are going to go get some iPods now.” With that Alex shook Ted’s hand and exited the door and hopped in the van. Alex told the girls to buckle down because they were going to the Apple store.

Applejack began to perk up at the sound of it and was bouncing in her seat all the way to the mall. As Alex turned off the van, AJ was already wrestling her way through the crowded van and into the store. Alex just watched Applejack hop around with excitement as Lyra said, “Are we really going to go to a fruit store.”

Twilight pitched in as she said as though she was studying the subject, “Actually we’re going to a store name Apple inc. founded well over fifty years ago by a man named Steven Jobs. The store sells overpriced electronics such as music players and computers of all sorts for unnecessarily high prices.”

Alex’s eyes looked at her like she was some sort of alie… nevermind. Alex looked at Twilight as he said, “You need to get off of Wikipedia.”

Twilight just tilted her head as she giggled and was soon hopping out of the van along with Alex and Lyra. Applejack began to pull Alex’s hand towards inside the mall, her eyes glowing with excitement as they entered the large inner city mall. Alex began to lead the way as Applejack jumped with joy. That was until they arrived at the store. Applejack looked up at the big white Apple light with a bite mark in it as she said, “This ain’t the apple store ah was thinkin’ of.”

Alex entered the store as he said with a slight shake of his head, “Well apples can’t play music can they?” AJ simply shrugged as she entered the store, the place was well lit with all sorts of shiny gadgets next to them with large numbers taped onto them. Alex walked up to the counter and said, “I would like to buy seven iPods please.”

The man on the other side had a look of surprise on him as he said, “Okay well the total adds up to $2373.00 would you like to spend the extra fifty dollars to add an extended warranty on it?”

Alex shook his head as he said, “The next generation of iPod will be out before this thing breaks within a month. We might as well buy the new ones after this. Do you accept cash?” With that, Alex pulled out a wad of cash from his pocket and counted out $2400 and put it on the counter. The man looked at the wad and slowly put it under the desk. Alex took the seven iPods and exited the store, after having troubles pulling Pinkie away from the photo booth app on the iPad 27 they were all out of the store.

Applejack looked at her new see through device as she walked through the mall and said, “So this here thingamajig plays music only Ah can hear?”

Alex nodded as he turned her iPod on and began to play some free music on her device, after putting in the headphones Alex said to her, “What do you think?”

Applejack’s head began to twitch as she said, “Ah cant here you! This music is pretty loud.” Alex then pulled the headphones out to see her relax as he repeated the question again. Applejack smiled as she said, “Well, it sure was loud; Ah think ah can find me some country music for this here doo-hicky.”

Alex looked down at his watch as he said, “Well we should be getting back home now, Twilight and Lyra have class in a couple more hours they have to attend.” With that, everyone got into the can that was waiting outside and began to drive off towards Algonquin College.

*****

Alex pulled up in the parking lot a few hours later with Twilight and Lyra in the van with him as he said, “Alright well you girls call me when you’re done class okay?” Alex exited the van as Twilight nodded her head and Alex opened his arms as he said, “Come on girls bring it in.” Twilight and Lyra both blushed as they hugged Alex tightly before getting their books and walking off to class. Alex watched from the drivers seat as a group of girls began to giggle behind Twilight and Lyra’s backs as they walked by which made Alex a little disappointed in them. Not in his girls, but in the ones that teased his girls because they were missing out on two of the nicest girls ever and were instead probably getting coked up and knocked up as well. One of the girls looked over towards the van that was still parked there to see the driver shake his head at them before driving off. As Alex began to drive he looked at the buildings and began to think about what Ted had said to him, about going vigilant during the day and wearing some white too. Alex thought about it the entire way home and also what city he could possibly go to. Alex eventually arrived home and slowly got out of the vehicle, his mind still focusing on the idea of being a day time hero too. Alex opened the door to his home to see the other five girls watching some television, as Alex walked up the stairs he said to them, “I’m going vigilant in a few minutes.”

Rarity’e eyes widened as she watched what was happening on the screen as she said, “Alex, we know where you might need to go tonight.” Her eyes as well as the others could not get away from what they were looking at on the screen.

Alex was soon walking back down the stairs dressed in a black vest with a white long sleeve shirt and a white bandanna along with a black toque as he said, “Yeah well where could that be?” Alex then looked at the television and his jaw dropped at what he saw. He saw what looked like a large solid gold night sending out shock waves at tanks and soldiers as their bullets and bombs exploded. He watched tanks be thrown back as the knight blasted chunks of concrete where soldiers were standing a couple of seconds ago.

He watched as the knight towered ten feet above the humans as the news reporter said, “This new threat to Mexico is sending all the troops into Puerto Vallarta, the president of Mexico says that he hopes this threat will be neutralized while citizens say that only The Hero would be able to stop him.” Rarity looked back for Alex but noticed that he was gone and the back door was open, the next thing Rarity and the rest heard was a thunderous explosion as Alex soared off into the distance on his board.

Alex flew through the air as fast as he could as he said, “Finally something that is challenging. Alex new he was crossing the border again because the military planes were beginning to go after him. Alex took no notice in them as he began to accelerate quicker and quicker before he looped behind them. The pilots began to turn their necks to look Alex only to see him zoom past the planes at super sonic speeds on his board. Alex turned his torso around to wave at the pilots as he sped off into the distance towards Mexico.
