A Servant's Dutyby Hazel_Hester777ChaptersPrayerDiscovering the GardenThe YoungEffects on the YoungEpilogueDevotion GroundsEpiloguePrayer7 whole months. It had been seven whole months since Bunny and Spike had become friends and the alien became the mascot of the Cutie Mark Crusaders. She had become well accustomed to living with ponies, especially her mistress Fluttershy. She had gone quite used to Fluttershy’s routine, and even making friends with the animals. Bunny could understand them pretty well even without using Translate. She was an animal herself after all, and still is. And she got used to being in the form of a normal animal in order to avoid causing too much attention. She also managed to get herself a part-time job as the Flower Trio’s main supplier because of her closeness to Mother Nature, and they gave her the nickname Baby’s Breath. As she got used to being part of the community, she decided that since she’s been getting accustomed to them, it’s time they start to learn about her beliefs. Her first time to do so was on the day she moved in, when she, Twilight, and Fluttershy were about to have breakfast. It was so far a baby step… “What’s wrong, Bunny? You never ate a salad before?” Twilight asked. “No, I have eaten vegetables and fruit; I’m practically a vegetarian like the rest of my species. It’s just…” “You only ate them in raw, did you?” Twilight asked. “Bunny, it’s easy. Just put it infront of you, and dump your mouth in the bowl like the animal you were” the Alicorn was about to, when… “Ahem!” Twilight stopped. “Pray?” “Oh! Right, we forgot you’re a Servant” Twilight then put her hooves together in praying position, so did Fluttershy. “Will you do the honors?” Bunny nodded, and put her paws together to begin. “Bless us, o Lord for this thy gifts which we are about to receive from thy bounty through Christ, our Lord. Amen. In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.” “Well, we better start getting used to that” “I’m pretty sure you will” Well, it’s time to see how things were going on in the present. Discovering the GardenBunny began her walks into the new Garden again; this time to make sure what’s there will survive. She stood on the stump again, and began to circle around the area. As she did, she chanted, and the elements glowed. The Skies shall be glad And the Gardens shall bloom For the Lord Almighty and all his followers We are the selected We will flourish on the land In the soil, on the water, on air Until the unbelievers face their Judgment Our victory as we rise above them Healing the world from within We are the Soul and now, it is our time to grow For if the non-believers shall pass over it They shall be redeemed ________________________________________ “Gotcha again, Fluttershy!” Twilight giggled after pinning her marefriend to the ground, the latter just laughed with her. “You’ve been getting used to being surprised now” “Nothing that I didn’t learn from you, love” “Aww” Twilight was about to kiss Fluttershy, but then they heard something. It sounded like…singing. Fluttershy got up and she and Twilight followed the sounds. They eventually found the source, behind a group of normal trees. “Hello? Is anypony there?” Fluttershy called out. The response she got was Bunny jumping out of the bushes. “Surprised you both didn’t I?” she asked, smiling. Both mares nodded. “You came to see the harvest?” Bunny asked. “No, we were just curious” Fluttershy said. “Want to try some?” Bunny pointed to the tree with fruits that appeared to look like apples, but they had stars on them. “Sure, if you want to” Bunny nodded. She hurried up to the tree, and caressed its trunk, humming the tune of “Son of Mary”. Within seconds, several fruits fell from the tree and into the baskets under them. Bunny got the basket filled with the seven that fell, and let Fluttershy and Twilight try the fruit. Immediately, they were amazed at its taste. “Bunny, this is amazing!” “Glad you think so” “What the hay is going on here?” a voice belonging to Applejack said. The earth pony approached the scene, with Rainbow Dash behind her. “Applejack, Rainbow Dash, you have got to try this!” Twilight called with a mouth full. The two also took a fruit each, and like Fluttershy and Twilight, both were amazed. “It…tastes…AWESOME!” “Who grew them?” “Bunny did” “Bunny,” Applejack approached the alien. “The structure is perfect, there are no blemishes or bugs, and it’s all at its height of ripeness? Where did you get them?” “From home. I got a little homesick so I decided to grow them here in Fluttershy’s old garden. They bloomed just 2 nights ago” “You grew them all in two nights?!” “Like my Bible said, “One reaps what they sow” “ Applejack was amazed. She looked at the fruit, then Bunny, and gestured for Bunny to come with her. “Can you also bring along five more of them?” ________________________________________ “My oh my! I sure am glad I’m still alive to have tasted such a fruit like this!” “Eeyup!” “Ah know right? Ah couldn’t believe it when Ah took a bite from it” “Bunny, how does fruit grow here if this is just one of the many plants in your home planet?” Applebloom asked. “There are many, Applebloom. And I see the rest of you Crusaders love it too” “Indeed, I love it!” Sweetie Belle raised her hoofs triumphantly. “As my sister would say, it’s 20% cooler!” “This is one of the fruits of our Servant labor for serving our Lord. Through him, anything is possible” Bunny cited. “The Lord?” Scootaloo asked. Bunny nodded. “Indeed, we obey Him, and He helps us all” Applebloom stared at Bunny, then the Crusaders, and they all nodded. “Will you show us about Him?” Bunny beamed. “Bring all your schoolmates with you” The Young“These are just delicious! Please tell us more about the Lord; I want to also be His” Pipsqueak said after eating the apple Bunny gave. The alien had been passing out samples since the Crusaders led all the fillies and colts in Ponyville to the playground. She was very happy to hear they want to know more about God. This was the first step to saving this land. “Tell us too!” the other fillies and colts said in unison. “Well, I would love to but does that mean you want to know about our labors for being this way?” “Yes! We’d love too!” “I don’t know, with all great things comes a great responsibility. Are you sure you are willing to help me with the task?” “Yes, we are willing” “Very well then, we shall all meet tonight” “When?” “You’ll know when you hear the voice” ________________________________________ The night was calm once more. Bunny stood on the railing of the balcony, waiting for the stroke of midnight. She finally heard it, and began to sing. Come, now is the time to worship. Come, now is the time to give your heart. Come, just as you are, to worship. Come, just as you are, before your God. Come. One day every tongue will confess You are God. One day every knee will bow. Still the greatest treasure remains for those Who gladly choose you now. Come, now is the time to worship. Come, now is the time to give your heart. Oh, come. Just as you are to worship. Come just as you are before your God. Come. As Bunny sang, one of the most amazing things happened. All the fillies and colts in Ponyville woke up, got out of bed, and began to follow the song. They didn’t even know they were doing it; their bodies were just moving on their own. It was almost as though they were drawn to it. The next thing they knew was they were in the Garden. One thing that seemed different from the Garden was that there were pews all set up infront of the cross, along with a stand for preaching and Sermons. “Come, children. It’s time for your Mass” Bunny’s voice called out. All turned to the side to see a shadowed figure. When it stepped into the moonlight, it was revealed to be Bunny. “Take a seat and a pamphlet” All of them followed. Each didn’t even bother about pushing; there was room for all. Bunny silently made her way to the side of the stand. Scootaloo broke the silence. “So, tell us about God” “I’d love to, but I’m only Servant. I’m basically a mere inferior to the other Holy Ones, like an Angel’s pet. But did invite somepony to preach for us tonight” Bunny looked up. There was a blinding light. It went to the stand infront of them all. They all had to cover their eyes in order to avoid the blinding light. Eventually, it stopped its glow. What was in the place of the glow was a man dressed in white. He looked to be a High Priest. “Aaron, High Priest of Israel, “Bunny greeted, slightly bowing her head to show respect to her superior. “It’s so nice to have thou here” “Bunny Katsuma, little Servant,” Aaron greeted back. “So nice of you to start Spreading the Word of God out to Equestria” Bunny still bowed her head, seemingly afraid. “Thou can stop bowing, young Servant. There’s no need to be afraid” “My apologies, my Superior” “Anyway, I see you have decided to start with what young and innocent. That’s a very wise choice; that way, they can retain and grow up with faith for all their lives” “Permission to introduce thou to the children, High Priest?” “Go ahead” “Everypony, this is the soul of Aaron the High Priest. He will be conducting the Mass. When it ends, you return the way you came. Then we’ll do this all again for next nights” Effects on the YoungEverything seemed to be normal for all the fillies and colts after the night’s events. They were happy to learn about God. It was a privilege indeed. They were even given the privilege of Baptism, and a small crucifix necklace to wear. The parents didn’t find it weird; they just thought it was nice. Bunny found it good for them too; this was part of her plan afterall. It then became common for them all to talk during the day at breaks at school. Bunny was a mere Servant; so she couldn’t be holding the Mass herself. But she could tell them stories and chapters from the Bible. “It was a lie that Celestia began the world” she said to all of them at the playground. “For it had not been for God, even she herself wouldn’t have been born” “Woah!” they all said simultaneously. “Indeed, are you all still just following me because you want more fruit?” “No! We really want to learn about God!” They all said. “We want to be his children!” Bunny beamed at it. “Well, then, how about we start to invite your parents for them to also be a part of His children?” All foals agreed and nodded. “Yes, we’d love to save them too!” “Perfect, at this rate, we shall save all of Ponyville” “Shall we start our parts?” Button Mash asked. “Indeed, children. And after you invite your parents, it’s time for the Confession and Communion of those who are atleast of 12 years of age” “How will we get approval of religion here and throughout all of Equestria? We need a princess to approve so there will be no rejections” Scootaloo asked. “I already took care of that. Luna and I discussed about it and she gave it her stamp of approval” “You did all that?!” Diamond Tiara asked. “Yep, Luna and I are friends” ________________________________________ A week went by since the day the foals of Ponyville had come to the Garden for their first Mass. Things have been better for the adults and Miss Cherillee. The foals no longer try to steal or cheat, they play nicer with each other, they’re more active in school, and are even doing better in their studies. Since they came back from the Garden, all foals have somehow been changed into a way that was thought to be impossible. Luna herself fondled over with the foals every so often and they truly loved her more than ever because she made sure religion was approved. Bunny herself enjoyed how much they were willing to be dedicated to God. EpilogueAll of the foals and their parents of Ponyville came into the Garden. As soon as the foals gave them a fruit to share with, they began to come to Garden as soon as they heard the melody. The parents had already been baptized along with the foals by Aaron. Luna herself came one night to take part and become one of them too. Now, two weeks had passed since all this happened, and now it was yet another Sunday Mass in the Garden. Aaron had just finished the night’s Mass, but he gave one more announcement for the all who attended. “Children, I must tell you something, a Priest cannot work alone in this church, granted even private. And so, because of this, I have called forth 7 beings to help in the clergy. And the eighth is the one who led you here, has become the one in charge of music and in calling you” The audience gaped in awe. “Children, show yourselves!” Aaron commanded, and at once, six mares, a baby dragon, and an alien popped out of the shadows, each wearing a cross and wearing white. Each said one of the Eight Beatitudes. “Blessed are the poor in spirit” Applejack said. “For theirs is the kingdom of Heaven” “Blessed are the meek” Rainbow added. “For they shall possess the land” “Blessed are they who mourn” Pinkie spoke. “For they shall be comforted” “Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for justice” Rarity declared. “For they shall be satisfied” “Blessed are the merciful” Spike spoke up. “For they shall obtain mercy” “Blessed are the clean of heart” Twilight joined in. “For they shall see God” “Blessed are the peacemakers” Fluttershy followed. “For they shall be called the children of God” “Blessed are they who suffer persecution for justice’s sake” Bunny finished. “For theirs is the kingdom of Heaven” After that, everypony returned home to call it a night. Bunny had begun her work pretty well, and she intends to finish it. Ring around the rosy Devotion GroundsTwilight and Fluttershy trotted upstairs to see if things were out of place. They were surprised to see Bunny bringing out a suitcase. The alien greeted cheerfully. “Hi Twilight and Fluttershy! You both came just in time” “In time for what? What’s in the suitcase?” Bunny stepped aside. Fluttershy stepped forward. Though nervous, the mare opened the case. All she found were pouches of seeds and a cross. “Just thought I may bring a little something from home” Bunny said. Fluttershy stared at the cross, then the pouches. “They look really nice, Bunny” ________________________________________ That night… It was a peaceful night. It was a night of quietness and calmness. Bats were flying. Fireflies were dancing. The stars were twinkling. The moon was shining. The evening gust blew gently. And all who were awake at day were sleeping soundly. All felt like nothing weird was gonna happen. Then, at the strike of 11:50, things went slightly more different than normal at the cottage of Fluttershy. Bunny woke up, her eyes wide open. She stared at the clock, and smiled. The instinct to spread the Word came in. She grabbed her suitcase from her pillow. “It’s time” ________________________________________ Bunny traveled through and into a small, abandoned garden nearby Fluttershy’s home. The garden was no longer used by Fluttershy so when Bunny asked if she can use it, it was approved. Bunny felt it was a good place to start. She opened up her suitcase infront of her. She kneeled and began. Eventually, she got the small cross inside, lifted it up, and prayed. “I offer these to the Lord God Almighty” Almost simultaneously, the flower on Bunny’s own collar began to glow. Winds began to blow around, and then a small stump of a tree grew under where Bunny kneeled. The cross she held began to glow, and floated on its own. The cross floated infront of her, implanted itself on the ground, and grew to its full size. Bunny got a seed from each of the pouches, and began to scatter them each in a different direction. Then, without warning, she closed her eyes and her elements came out of their places. She then began to sing, You're the God of this City You're the King of these people You're the Lord of this nation You are You're the Light in this darkness You're the Hope to the hopeless You're the Peace to the restless You are There is no one like our God There is no one like our God Greater things have yet to come And greater things are still to be done in this City Greater things have yet to come And greater things are still to be done here As Bunny sang, the seeds began to grow all around her. The elements were now glowing and strong. And every clock in Ponyville tolled Midnight all at the same time. She felt stronger as her Servant’s Gene was enhanced and her energy empowered. She felt her instincts kick in entirely. Eventually, she felt that now was the right time to start Spreading the Word. She smiled in anticipation. Tomorrow, she’ll start with what’s young and innocent. EpilogueAll of the foals and their parents of Ponyville came into the Garden.

You never ate a salad before?” Twilight asked. “No, I have eaten vegetables and fruit; I’m practically a vegetarian like the rest of my species. It’s just…” “You only ate them in raw, did you?” Twilight asked. “Bunny, it’s easy. Just put it infront of you, and dump your mouth in the bowl like the animal you were” the Alicorn was about to, when… “Ahem!” Twilight stopped. “Pray?” “Oh! Right, we forgot you’re a Servant” Twilight then put her hooves together in praying position, so did Fluttershy. “Will you do the honors?” Bunny nodded, and put her paws together to begin. “Bless us, o Lord for this thy gifts which we are about to receive from thy bounty through Christ, our Lord.

The garden was no longer used by Fluttershy so when Bunny asked if she can use it, it was approved. Bunny felt it was a good place to start. She opened up her suitcase infront of her. She kneeled and began. Eventually, she got the small cross inside, lifted it up, and prayed. “I offer these to the Lord God Almighty” Almost simultaneously, the flower on Bunny’s own collar began to glow. Winds began to blow around, and then a small stump of a tree grew under where Bunny kneeled. The cross she held began to glow, and floated on its own. The cross floated infront of her, implanted itself on the ground, and grew to its full size. Bunny got a seed from each of the pouches, and began to scatter them each in a different direction. Then, without warning, she closed her eyes and her elements came out of their places. She then began to sing, You're the God of this City You're the King of these people You're the Lord of this nation You are You're the Light in this darkness You're the Hope to the hopeless You're the Peace to the restless You are There is no one like our God There is no one like our God Greater things have yet to come And greater things are still to be done in this City Greater things have yet to come And greater things are still to be done here As Bunny sang, the seeds began to grow all around her. The elements were now glowing and strong. And every clock in Ponyville tolled Midnight all at the same time. She felt stronger as her Servant’s Gene was enhanced and her energy empowered. She felt her instincts kick in entirely. Eventually, she felt that now was the right time to start Spreading the Word. She smiled in anticipation. Tomorrow, she’ll start with what’s young and innocent.
EpilogueAll of the foals and their parents of Ponyville came into the Garden. As soon as the foals gave them a fruit to share with, they began to come to Garden as soon as they heard the melody. The parents had already been baptized along with the foals by Aaron. Luna herself came one night to take part and become one of them too. Now, two weeks had passed since all this happened, and now it was yet another Sunday Mass in the Garden. Aaron had just finished the night’s Mass, but he gave one more announcement for the all who attended. “Children, I must tell you something, a Priest cannot work alone in this church, granted even private. And so, because of this, I have called forth 7 beings to help in the clergy. And the eighth is the one who led you here, has become the one in charge of music and in calling you” The audience gaped in awe. “Children, show yourselves!” Aaron commanded, and at once, six mares, a baby dragon, and an alien popped out of the shadows, each wearing a cross and wearing white. Each said one of the Eight Beatitudes. “Blessed are the poor in spirit” Applejack said. “For theirs is the kingdom of Heaven” “Blessed are the meek” Rainbow added. “For they shall possess the land” “Blessed are they who mourn” Pinkie spoke. “For they shall be comforted” “Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for justice” Rarity declared. “For they shall have their fill” “Blessed are the merciful” Spike spoke up. “For they shall obtain mercy” “Blessed are the clean of heart” Twilight joined in. “For they shall see God” “Blessed are the peacemakers” Fluttershy followed. “For they shall be called the children of God” “Blessed are they who suffer persecution for justice’s sake” Bunny finished. “For theirs is the kingdom of Heaven” After that, everypony returned home to call it a night. Bunny had begun her work pretty well, and she intends to finish it. Ring around the rosy
