Jack was making his way down the market. He was looking for ingredients for the food in the bar. It’s was Saturday he normally took these day off to enjoy himself or to go shopping like he was doing now. After a few hours of shopping and a few more arguing over the price of cherries, Jack decided to take a nap break at a nearby park underneath a tree. At this point he had most of his supplies and it was such a lovely day, how else could one enjoy it other than napping straight through it?

Jack awoke from his nap, rubbing his eye’s he noticed something strange in the air. A uneasiness he hasn't felt in this town before, at least by anything human. Jack looked up to see a cloaked girl, standing at the other end of the park. Most of her face was covered ,only her jade green eyes pierced the shadow cast by her hood, accompanied by a few locks of the womans red hair.

As Jack rose from his spot, the woman responded in turn, making her way out of the park. In the eyes of any normal citizen l, what Jack did next would seem like teleportation, but in reality it was merely a hop skip, and a jump that landed him right in front of the mysterious woman.. Jack grabbed her by the collar of her hood and lifted her into the air . “Listen missy,” he growled, “ if you're one of the kids Celestia sent to me to train then, let's get the introductions over with because I got better things to do then watch another audition for the talent show!. Just by your appearance I can already tell that you're going to be a pain in my side.” The child didn’t respond, Jack decided to give her a little shake to see if he could get a response. “Great, the broody silent type, just what I-” Jacks eyebrow raised when a small doll fell out from the girls cloak.

His demeanor quickly changed as he began to fully grasp the situation. He’d only assumed this girl was here for him, for all Jack knew, she could have been a park goer with sensitive skin, hence the cloak.

As he looked around, Jack felt the eyes of the other park members upon him. Looking back to the girl, he released a small sigh and placed the young woman back onto her feet.

“Sorry about that kid, guess I shook you a little too hard.” Jack reached down to pick up the doll,only to stop inches from it. The doll was blue had black hair, yellow eyes and wore a pink little dress. Jack looked in the doll's eyes, and it looked back. Magic flowed to the tips of Jack's fingers as he readied to crush the doll. And what ever was in it, Jack was going to see to it that it was destroyed.

As Jack was about to grab it a green tendril wrapped around Jack's wrist and wiped it back. Jack’s eyes narrowed as he traced the tentacle back to the girl's hand. Jack shot a small burst of magic through her own stream, causing her magic to destabilise and burst. Her eye’s widen in shock of the display of power, she has clearly never experienced anybody do that to her before, and she didn’t like it.

“That was a pretty good spell kid, you're strong.” The girl quickly turned her attention back to Jack. She was quickly un-nerved by the fact that he had developed big toothy grin on his face. Of all the facial expression he could have given her, a smile was his choice?

“Do you know what’s in that doll, kiddo?” Jack hoped to hear no, but alas this hope was dashed.

“There is a demon in my doll, Nightbeam. Because of Nightbeam I can hear my friends Starlight, Darklight and Shadow.”

Jack’s eye twitched, he kicked the doll back up to the girl's hand as he started to remember less than fond memories of demons he has ran into in the past. Jack proceeded to throw the girl over his shoulder and dash back to his groceries muttering only one word. “Nope.” He then took the girl and her doll to the library.

When Jack got to the library he promptly threw the door off its hinges and in doing so scared Twilight half to death, and causing Spike to fall out of his bed from upstairs. Jack set his groceries down and threw the girl at Twilight.The only word of warning she received was. “Think fast.” After tossing said girl at Twilight, before should even think of articulating a very strongly worded protest of the situation, Jack started making his way towards Spike,which prompted the young dragon to make a mad dash for his life. Twilight only caught a second of this due to the mystery girl hitting her in the face, but she could just make out Jack kicking Spike in the air and catching him.

Spike, now firmly in Jack’s grip, struggle desperately with all his might to fight back even to go as to breath fire at Jacks face. This action abruptly halted when Jack gave the purple reptile a squeeze , eliciting a surprisingly adorable squeaky noise. Jack gave a chuckle at his new discovery, then quickly dismissed it for the task at hand. He need to talk to the Sun Bitch.

“Listen Runt,” Jack hissed, “I need your magic flames to send a message to Princess Sunburn, now!.” Jack and Spike’s locked eye’s as Spikes breathing slowed down.

“How do you even know about my flame’s?” Spike asked,terror still ripe in his voice.

Jack rolled his eye’s “I keep tabs on everyone in town for my own reasons, but I’m not here to tell my life story to the town iguana.”

At this point Twilight was over the initial shock of the situation, and quickly stood to her feet, firmly clamping a hand on Jack’s shoulder and spun the man around to face her. was “Jack,” she hissed in a unsettling mixture of confusion and anger, “what is so important that you would rip my door off, throw a person at me, and then promptly assault my friend!?”

Jack turned around surprised at himself to see that he actual did rip the door off. He just shrugged it off as he pointed to the the girl,now sitting on the floor.

“Jack, you ripped my door off to talk to Celestia about a teenage girl!?” Ignoring Twilight Jack made his way to Twilight’s bathroom and covered her mirror with his magic. Jack then proceed to twist the little dragon in his hands, as one would to obtain the sweet remainder of toothpaste from a long ago overused tube of toothpaste,causing the young drake to spew his signature green flame.

“Jack what are you doing!?” The girl Jack threw made her way to the bathroom just in time to see Twilight’s continued freak out.

Jack rolled his eye’s . “I’m going to go talk to sun bitch. To do that before my groceries go bad i'm going to use Spike fire to open a portal directly to her location.”

As he spoke a small green portal began to form on the mirror and grow until it took up the full frame. A image of Celestia and Luna on their throne’s appeared before them. Jack quickle shoved his hand through the image and sure enough, as he pulled his hand back, the Princess of the Sun was pulled througr.

Celestia was having a long day. Her workload has double if not tripled from the fact that Luna has returned. Many nobles have not liked the sudden appearance of a second ruler and the inevitable power shift. Celestia was actually in the middle of one of the famous noble temper tantrum when a green flaming portal appeared. She instantly knew the magic to be Spike’s flames but it was much too big to be his flames. To her great surprise a fist came out and pulled her into it, leaving a rather confused younger sister abruptly alone.


Jack pulled Celestia’s upper body out of the portal holding her up by her shoulder so he can get a better look at her. When Celestia looked up to see Jack’s less than pleased expression, she promptly returned the gesture with a look of disgust of her own.

“What do you want Jack?” She asked, a low growl accompanying each word. “I'm in the middle of something.”

Jack simple grunted raising the hand holding Spike and dropping him so that he could direct her attention to the girl. “You sent me a demon child Sun Bitch, why?”

Celestia rolled her eyes and scoffeds. “Why do you think Jakie, to train her.”

Jack pulled Celestia up to eye level as he continued to speak. “Why didn't you send her to Club or some monk, anybody other than me? You know very well how I feel about those ‘things’.”

Celestia smiled at Jack as she glances over to see Twilight,the young woman in a state of perpetual shock and confusion. “I figure I would throw her in with the bunch. After all wouldn’t, the King of Beast be able to train one animal?”

“NightBeam resents that name.”

Celestia and Jack looked over at the girl, slightly surprised that she finally spoke up.

“The demon?” Jack finally asked.

“Yes, he doesn’t like being called an animal. Beside, if you don’t want to train, us we can leave, it makes no difference to us.”

“Hold up!” All eyes quickly turned to to Twilight..

“Jeez Twilight,” Jack said, cleaning out his left ear with a pinky.”We’re all right here, ya don’t have to yell.””

Twilight stared on baffled, baffled at the scene before her. Only to see that the other two started to nod in agreement with Jack.

Twilight’s left eye gave the slightest twitch as magic grew in her hands. With her magic she quickly picked Jack and the random girl up and proceed to throw them out the doorway ( a task made significantly easier with the lack of a door) . Twilight loomed over them with a very infuriated look plastered upon her face, as she proceed to float the broken door and stick it back where it was.

“Twilight, why are you being so rude?” Jack asked in a dry tone. “ I thought better of you. Plus I still need my groceries please.”

Jack’s groceries proceed to hit him in the back of his head.

“I don’t have time for this Jack I have the gala to think about.”

Jack froze at the mention of the gala, he had so many fond memories of the gala. At least at the after party. Jack stood up and looked at the girl sitting next to him.

“What’s your name girl?”

“Eclipse.” she stated, void of any emotion.

“Well Eclipse, looks like I'm stuck with you so I might as well deal with it. Your training starts next week.” Jack proceed to leave, groceries in hand, hoping that the kids will be ready by the time the gala come around. Or how he likes to remember it, the gathering of Kings.
