For the main characters, there are too many to list. So, the only main character shown is OC. Also, all ages are in human years, not horse years. So, if somepony is 21, they are 21 in human years. You get what you get. I'm not good with horse ages.

Hero is not like your average, everyday pony. He is charming, brave, generous, kind-hearted, loving, smart, a good friend, mysterious, and, most of all, adventurous. Hero wanted to be the "hero", no pun intended, of his own story.

So, when a new evil presence lurks over Equestria, and a secret, hidden Element is discovered, known only as, "The Element of Heroism", it's up to Hero, The Elements of Harmony, Starlight, Cheerilee, Derpy Hooves, Lyra Heartstrings, Bon-Bon (Sweetie Drops), Vinyl Scratch (DJ Pon-3), Octavia Melody, The Cutie Mark Crusaders, and, well, basically everypony else's encouragement and moral support, to stop it.

In this story, there will be A LOT of references to episodes of MLP:FiM, Cameos of Famous YouTubers: Brony or Not (Some examples might be Astro-Brony, Markiplier, TheLostNarrator, etc.),references to many of the Fanfictions on this site (Some examples might be "Anthropology", "Cupcakes", "The Cough", "My Roommate is a Vampire", Truth Be Told", etc.), and all Bronies in General.

For readings and Audio Dramas on YouTube, I don't care if you make one. As long as you give me credit for making the fanfic.

Oh, and P.S., this is teen, because of the sexual content, like in anime, where if a guy sees a hot chick, blood sprays from his nose, comically. This is what will happen in most of the chapters, until Hero's love Interest will be revealed.

Don't worry. All mares and stallions ponies are 18 or over, and no actual sex will be put into the story, so...

Prologue Part 1: Thirteen Years Ago

It was a dark and stormy November night in Ponyville. Everypony was in their homes snuggled up tightly in their beds, fast asleep. Yes, everypony, except for one.

At the school house, there was a teacher by the name of Cherry Blossom, who was grading her student's papers. This mare had a purple-pinkish pelt, with a large light pink, pink, and purple mane, all tied together, with her cutie mark being pink flowers. She looked at the clock It was 12 P.M. Then, she looked back at the piles of papers on her desk, and sighed.

"At this rate, I'll never get this finished", she says, "Not that it matters, considering I live here. I just need... some... sleep..."

She yawns, as she slowly falls to sleep. But then, there was a knock. The noise bounced Cherry up like a spring.

"Who's there", she asks, as she looks around the room.

After seeing that nopony was there, she tried to go back to sleep, thinking it was just her imagination. But then, there was another knock. She sprung up again. The young mare noticed the noise was coming from outside. Somepony must've been knocking on the door. Confused, she got up and went to the door.

"Who could be up this late at night", she thought, as she opened the door.

She looked around to find nopony.

"H-hello", she asked, "I-is anypony t-there?"

Nopony answered.

"Maybe it 'was' all in my head", she thought.

She was about to close the door, and go back inside, until...

"D-down h-here"

Cherry looked down to see a small unicorn . He had a green Pelt, with a blue and orange Mane. He looked to be only five. She was shocked.

"Hi", she said to him, "W-what are you doing out here so late? You should be home with your parents."

Tears then formed in the colt's eyes. Then, with one look of those tears, Cherry knew immediately what was wrong.

"Oh, what happened to them?", Cherry asked.

"I-I don't remember", the colt said, crying now, "All I remember was that when I knew about it, I ran away and never went back."

Cherry didn't know what to do. If she let him keep wandering in the cold, he'd freeze to death. If she took him to the police, they would make him even more scared then he already is. If she took him to the orphanage, they'd treat him like dirt. So, she did the only thing she could. She hugged the little colt tightly around her front legs.

"Don't worry", she said, "Everything is going to be okay. Now, why don't you come live with me, okay?"

The little colt stopped crying.

"Okay", he said.

So they went inside. Cherry gave him some hot cocoa, and pulled out her old futon, and her softest, warmest blanket. Then, with the sip of his drink, the little unicorn fell fast asleep.

"How am I going to explain this to Cheerilee?", she thought, "Oh, that doesn't matter right now.Wait, what was I doing again? Oh yeah, grading papers."

She walked over to her desk, as she slipped on a pencil. She landed flat, face first on the carpet floor, knocking down a school flyer.

"I thought I cleaned up everything", she thought.

As she got up, she noticed the flyer she knocked down.

"Who is your favorite hero?"

"Hero", she thought, "I like it. That could be his name."

She looked back at the little colt.

"Yeah", she though, "Little Hero."

Chapter 1: Present Day

"So class, can anyone explain what this is?"

We now go to present day, where Hero has now grown into a stallion, teaching little colts and fillies alongside Cheerilee, his sister. He is teaching them different types of creatures, pointing at a three headed dog-like creature on the board.

"Oh-me-me-me"

One of the little fillies raised their hoof to answer the question.

"Yes, Diamond?", Hero asked her.

Diamond Tiara lowers her hoof. "Is it a chimera", she asked.

"No", Hero said, "Sorry, that's not it. Anyone else?"

Another filly raised their hoof. "Is it a Hydra?", she asked.

"No, but close.", Hero said.

A third hoof raised, this time, a colt by the name of Pipsqueak. "Is it a Cerberus", he asked.

Hero checked his Teacher's Book.

"Yes", Hero said, "That is correct."

Suddenly, the bell rang. Students ran out of the school in joy, and cheer.

"And, that is all the time we have today, next week we talk about Cutie Marks, what they are, and tell stories of how everyone got theirs."

The fillies and colts didn't hear the teachers

"Yay, we're free for two more days", one filly said.

"Come on Silver Spoon", said Diamond Tiara, "Me and Daddy are going to be giving money and better toys and furniture to the Orphanage."

"Come on girls", Applebloom told Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo, "let's go help other fillies with Cutie Mark problems.

The little ponies were all gone in about 15.23 seconds. How do I know that? Hero and Cheerilee always time dismissals for fun.

"That's a new record", Hero said, looking at the stopwatch.

"I think that was the best teaching day, yet", Cheerilee says.

"You said it", Hero agreed, "No one even argued at each other. That's rare."

Cheerilee giggled, and put an hoof around her big brother.

"Look at us", she said, "Following in our Mom's hoofprints. I'd bet she'd be so proud of us."

Hero grinned, and looked down at Cheerilee, putting his hoof around her.

"Yeah", he said, "I bet she would. But, she is in a better place, now..."

They both paused. Cheerilee, looking down, sad.

"...in Las Pegasus, on retirement, winning millions, even billions, of bits."

She looked up in embarrassment.

"O-oh", she said, again, in embarrassment, "I-I thought you meant 'something else'."

"What do you mean?", Hero asked

"N-nothing, nothing", Cheerilee said nervously, "N-nevermind"

Hero hugged her sister, went over to the coat rack, and grabbed his coat.

"Well", he said, "I'm off to go see Twilight and her friends."

He left, heading towards Twilight's Castle.

"Okay", Cheerilee said, "I'll just stay here, and just grade papers, alone, by myself, with no help.

Cheerilee continued to mumble words even when Hero left. But, Hero didn't hear her. His mind drifted off, as he walked to the castle of Twilight Sparkle.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hero was trotted along the streets of Ponyville. He had plenty of time to get to Twilight's Castle. As he walked pass an alley way, however...

"Gimme the bag lady, and no one gets hurt."

A women was getting robbed by someone.

"No", the mare said, "All of my food is in here."

"Okay, lady", the robber said, "You asked for this"

The robber raised his hoof up to punch the mare. But, just as he was about to, Hero put a hoof on his shoulder.

"Dude", Hero said, "I wouldn't do that if I were you."

The robber turned around.

"H-Hero?"

He was shocked to find that behind him was the guy that beat him to a pulp and got him arrested for robbing someone a month ago.

"Oh", Hero told him, "You remember me? Well then. Do you really want what happened last time to happen to you again?"

"N-no", the robber said, "N-n-not at all."

"Well then", Hero said, "Leave this women alone, get out of here, and don't let me see rob anyone again. Can you do that?"

"Y-yes", the Robber said, "I can definitely do that."

The robber began to walk out of the alley, carrying on that he wouldn't ever do it again, he promised. Hero turned to the mare he helped.

"No need to thank me", he said, "I just like to help people whenever I ca..."

He looked at her, immediately recognizing who she was.

"Derpy", he asked, "What are you doing out here so late?"

"I-I was buying muffins for Dinky's Birthday, tomorrow.", Derpy said, nervously, like she did something wrong.

Hero sighed. "What am I gonna to do with you?", he thought.

"Do you need any help, Derpy?"

"No thank you", she said, "I'm fine."

Hero looked at his watch.

"Oh, crud", Hero said in panic, "I'm late for my Magic Lessons with Twilight. Bye, Derpy. Be safe out here."

"Oh, don't worry Hero", Derpy said, "I'll be fine."

Hero galloped out of the alley way, and back into the streets.

Chapter 2: Magic and Sexual Akwardness (Comedic Chapter)

"9:25 P.M?!?!? I'm gonna be late. Why do I have to be late?"

Hero galloped as fast as he could towards the Castle of Friendship. It was dark, and very hard to-see. But, with the amount of Fireflies and Backyard Campfires in the summer, it was worth going outside in the middle of the night. Then, Hero got to the castle.

"9:29 P.M. YES!!! Just made it."

Hero trotted to the door, and rang the doorbell. A few seconds later, what came out of the door was a shock to Hero. It was Twilight in a Fleur De Lis's Secrets Nightgown. Twilight in that dress made him feel... tingly.

"It's 9:30", Twilight said half-awake, "Who is it?"

Hero looked away, blushed and nervous, trying to not to get a nose bleed by seeing Twilight in a sexy nightgown.

"Oh", Twilight said surprised and now fully-awake, "It's you Hero. You must be here for the magic lessons, again.

Twilight noticed how Hero was nervous and shy.

"What's wrong?", she asked, "Are you alright?"

Twilight looked down, and saw that she was wearing her sexy nightwear. She blushed so hard, that her entire face turned as red as an apple.

"O-oh", Twilight said embarrassed and nervous, "I-it seems I'm s-still w-wearing m-my n-night w-wear. L-let m-me go c-change.

She closed the door.

"Phew!", Hero thought, "That was too close."

He pushed open the door to the castle. It was quiet. He heard a door screech open, the lights turned on, and he saw Starlight in the same type of Nightwear as Twilight. And, if you've seen anime, you know what happens next. But, if you don't this is a scene of a anime character having a nosebleed by seeing a hot girl.

Anyway, back to the story. Starlight was blushing as much as Twilight was a minute ago. Speaking of Twilight, she came back.

"I'm back", Twilight said, "Let's get ready to lea..."

Twilight was stunned to see a twitching Hero, on the floor, with nosebleed, and Starlight, in the same Gown as hers.

"What... The... Hay... Starlight, what happened? Why is Hero on the floor? W-why are you wearing my nightgown?"

Starlight was very confused.

"I-I don't know", Starlight said, "I-I just came to see who was here, and I saw him, and when he looked at me, he had a giant nosebleed, and passed out, right there on the floor."

As Twilight and Starlight continued to argue about what happened, Hero kept asking himself one question to himself.

"Why am I so afraid of hot girls?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Five Minutes Later

Hero and Twilight start roaming the halls of the Castle.

"Sorry about earlier", Hero told Twilight, "I just get nervous around girls, you know?"

"I get it", she told him, "I know many other stallions who do that."

"Anyway", he said, "Ready to teach me some magic?"

Twilight looked at him, grinning.

"I was born ready", she said.

"Alright then", he said, "Cue the montage."

I won't go into much detail, but Hero pulled a Pinkie, and a montage started. However, montages only work in visual form, so I'll just tell you what happened in it.

Basically, Twilight showed Hero how to do some advanced magic, such as Teleportation over short distances, making fake copies of yourself (sorta like decoys), levitating yourself, etc. The montage went on for another 3 minutes, but in actuality, the lessons took about 3 hours. Then, the montage ended by the two ponies high fiving in mid air. After that, he left. Waving goodbye to Twilight on the way back to his apartment.

Chapter 3: Neighbors and Dubstep: Same Thing

The Next Day, in Hero's Apartment

[Play this until it says, "She turned off the music."]

Hero woke up the next morning to the sound of music. Not calming music, not orchestral music, not the music of birds chirping, it was dubstep. Although he did like to listen to it occasionally, he didn't like it playing on max volume, right next door to his apartment, early in the morning. It was so loud, it shook his apartment Not like an earthquake, but just a slight vibration.

"You've gotta be kidding me. What time is it?", Hero thought to himself, still half-asleep.

He turned, facing his alarm clock. His eyes widened.

"7:00 A.M.?!?!", he thought angrily, "Who plays Dubstep at seven in the morning?"

Hero groaned, burying his face in the pillow.

"Oh well", he thought, "Maybe they'll turn it off in a few minutes."

Fifteen Minutes Later

Hero was banging on the wall, yelling, "SWEET CELESTIA, TURN THAT CRAP OFF!!! I'M TRYING TO SLEEP, DAMMIT!!!" Then, he gave up being nice. He stopped, turned around, and sighed.

"That's it", Hero said, "I'm going over there."

Hero got dressed, went to the door of the apartment making the noise, and banged on it. A few seconds later, a tired-looking grey mare, holding a mug of coffee, and in a robe and slippers came to the door.

"Y-yes", she said.

She seemed to have a British accent.

"Hi", Hero told her, "I'm Hero. I'm kinda new here. Is that you playing Dubstep? If so, then I'd like to ask to please TURN THAT CRAP OFF, SO I CAN GO BACK TO SLEEP!!!"

"O-oh", the mare said, "T-that's not me playing it. I don't particularly like that musical genre. I'm more of an orchestral type of mare. My name is Octavia Melody."

"Nice to meet you, Miss Melody.", Hero told her, "Can you tell your roommate what I just asked you?"

"I'm sorry", Octavia told him, "I'm afraid that's impossible. No matter what anyone says, she will not stop her music, until SHE wants to cut it off. She's as stubborn as a mule when it comes to her music.

"Oh, really", Hero asked, "Maybe I should go try telling her then. May I come in?"

"Sure", she told him.

Hero came in to the apartment. He followed the sound of the music, until he found the room it was coming from. So, he barged right into it. In the room, was a unicorn with a white pelt, and blue and cyan mane wearing purples shades, playing music on a giant DJ mixset.

"Hey, buddy", Hero yelled angrily at the pony playing the music, "If you think you can play that music while I'm trying to sleep, you have another thing comi..."

The white unicorn looked up at Hero. They both stared at each other, shocked.

"Vinyl?", Hero asked.

The white unicorn lifted up her shades. She turned off the music.

"Hero?", she asked, "Is that really you?"

She walked up to Hero. Observing him closely.

"Same pelt", she thought, "Same mane, same cutie mark..."

She looked back at him, surprised.

"IT IS YOU!!!", she cheered.

Vinyl Scratch, your typical, lazy mare. She loves her music, her fans, her roommate, and herself.

They hugged each other, surprised to see each other again.

"I haven't seen you since High School", Hero told Vinyl, "What have you been up to?"

They stopped hugging, and looked at each other.

"Oh, you know", she said, "The usual. Lazy S.O.B (Son Of a Bear) by day, famous DJ P0N-3 by night."

Octavia then came in.

"What's going on in here?", she said.

"Octi", Vinyl told her, "Do you remember when I told you I use to have a best friend back in High School? Well...", she pointed at Hero, "...this is him. This is my best friend back in High School."

"Oh yeah", Hero said, "I just remembered why I was here. Vinyl, can you turn the music off, please?"

Vinyl looked at Hero.

"Sure", she told him, "Anything for you, dude."

She went over to her mixset, and turned it off. Then, she went back to Hero.

"Oh, dude", Vinyl told him, "I can' wait to tell the others you are here."

"Whoa, whoa whoa whoa, wait", Hero said, interrupting Vinyl, "The rest are here, too?
