Three Species, And much fun.
Chapter 2: The Delay, and the Revelation
Previous ChapterChapter 2- The Delay, and the Revelation
A/N: I miss-wrote the A/N in the last chapter. It was supposed to say “...make Alex look like he wasn’t a Mary sue…” Sorry about that.
And, on another note, this fanfic has gotten some good reviews, and has had many favorites. So, I plan to repay you all back, by… PULLING THIS OUT OF HIATUS! That’s right, I'm back with plans. And, I have one very specific spot for an OC, can be pony or not, that I shall include. Who that will be is up to you.
-Sparky, OUT!-
(Alex’s POV)
“SHE ASKED WHAT?!” All six of them yelled at once, after I explained the e-mail. In Detail, I might add. I had to cover my ears a bit, for when they shout; it hurts like hell. Especially Flutters.
“I'm only telling you what I was told. Celestia wants me to combine the dimensions! And, plus, cause of the fanfic, I know who is who. Just, you really need to explain… you 6 WENT to that dimension?”
All six of them went silent; Even Pinkie, wearing a look of longing on her face. Then I understood. They longed for a return trip, missing those who they cared for so much.
“Ah… I get it… look, don’t say anything else. It will just complicate things. I’ll try to see if Celestia is for real or not, but, I'm sure I can work something out. Also, when I get back…Pinkie, me and you? We need to talk, alright? I’ll see you girls soon.”
As I said that, I packed what I had in my bag, and headed for the door. Too much surprise, Rainbow Dash stopped me in my tracks.
“No, something is off about you. I can sense it. Not the whole dimension thing. This is different…”
She took my bag off without warning, and instantly placed her hands on my shoulder-blades. Suddenly, I felt them snap a bit, and budge.
RD took a step back; her eyes wide open in shock. “No way… Alex, go. I have to tell the rest something!” Again, without warring, she put my bag on me, and shoved me out the door.
I just stood there for a moment, bewildered. I have ABSOLUTLY no idea what just happened. But, I shook it off. Then, with a quick blink, I left a trail of dust in my path, as I headed for Canterlot.
I forgot to say, I control my entire tech-suit with my own Neural Implants. I designed them myself, yes. But, heavens no, I wouldn’t do the surgery. I went to the hospital for that. It went without a hitched, and soon enough, the system booted up without anything wrong…Except for a missing component that I couldn’t find anywhere.
But, I shrugged that off as well, and speed up as I headed for the path that leads to Canterlot.
(Twilight’s Library, Third Person POV)
“HE IS WHAT?!” All of the others asked RD. What RD told them was more than ever, much a bigger shock.
“I'm telling you, I felt the pulse of wings! He isn’t just a human genius, he is an Anthro Pegasus!”
Twilight shook her head in disbelief. “That’s not possible! It can’t be! He is a human with a certified intelligence level and a bit abnormal, yes, but to be a secret Anthro Pegasus? It’s…Just not possible!”
As the others conversed, Pinkie Pie stood in front of the window, looking at the Trail of dust, which had faded, left by Alex.
“So… my long lost brother returns to Equestria… but, he… he's changed… Alex… Alex Tranity Pie… comes home…”
Several tears rolled down her pink cheeks. Not tears of sadness or anger; But, one of joy. All the proof that he was her lost brother was there. A former Anthro Pegasus, no doubt, and is smart enough to challenge Twilight.
Pinkie disappeared without a sound, back in her room at sugarcube corner. She walked out, and headed for the end of the hall. But, she walked into, and through the end of the hall, only to reappear on the other side. The wall was a portal, easily hidden to the Cakes. But Pinkie knew better. She trotted to the door at the end of the small corridor, and opened it.
The room was a simple room, with some drawing boards, blueprints, 2 desks, and a queen sized bed, but big enough for two. She went over to one of the desks, and picked up a letter she’s read so many times before; Signed by Celestia herself.
To Miss Pinkenema Dianne Pie,
It pains me deeply, and I mean this truthfully, to say that your brother can’t belong in this world much longer. With a danger spoken of before, He is vulnerable to the powers of chaos. I must send him to Earth, a world you have visited once, no doubt. If I do not do as such, his intelligence and broad brain can become that of which could be indirectly used for chaos, in massive amounts.
He will return, in time. I send this to you, even of your young age, because it will become clearer in the future. I wish to say, when her returns, not if. When. When he returns, he will think of where he is incorrectly. Tell the girls of the story “On a cross an Arrow”, one many foals have read. Tell them, once they meet Alex, they must be as believable as they can, and look like they are part of the story itself.
I wish to say more, but, as records indicate, you know more than I could. So, the rest is you to you to figure out.
-Princess Celestia
Regards are with Alex Tranity Pie, the loyal brother to the sisters of the Pie family.
Pinkie read this whenever she felt depressed, and smiled as she read it. She’s memorized every word, and knew so well what it could be. But, now…now she was a true Pinkie Pie, for her brother had come home. She knew her brother was loyal, but to transcend from Earth to Equestria on his own…she knew it was him…In the flesh.
She set down the letter, and then sighed, and then lay back on Alex’s bed. She had kept the room like it was when he left. The girls were as clueless as ever. They thought he really was a human. No… he was Pinkie’s brother. And… she was about to throw the biggest ‘Welcome Home’ party one could imagine.
“Now… how do I make the Pinkie Pie Cake, again?”
(Canterlot Throne Room, Alex’s POV)
I looked around in amazement. The room looked so much like the show, and then some. It was more, and I mean, MUCH more detailed then I first thought.
“Ah, Alex; Glad to see you are here.”
I looked up from where I was, and saw up the steps, the White Alicorn known to every brony very well.
“Princess Celestia, to what do I owe the honor?” I said with a bow.
Celestia smiled. “No need for formal introductions. I’ve summoned you, yes. But… not for you think.”
Alex stood up immediately, and looked at the goddess/ruler with a quizzical look. “Not for… wait, what?”
Celestia grinned, giving off no hints. “It’s more than what you can imagine…”
(Canterlot, Celestia’s Personal room, Midnight; Luna’s POV)
“Dear sister, you cannot have hoped for him to have accepted it right away. Did you HAVE to resort to memory flooding?”
I paced around the room at quite a fast pace. On one hand, I was worried for Alex’s safe being, for my sister really didn’t plan out Alex’s arrival to point. And on the other hand, I was to help him recover, and then bring him personally to Pinkie Pie, a job I do not think I will like.
“My lulu, you must calm down. Alex will wake up, and have many questions, yes. But, he should like you more than me at the moment, for what I did wasn’t the brightest, I know.”
I sighed. The extent of Alex’s state right now was stressful. He was to remain in a human body, since that can’t be modified by magic. He is also to have ALL memories, meaning human and Anthro. That is surely to cause some problems. The biggest worry is that no one bothered to tell him that heat season starts within a week. But, I guess they want Alex to be comfortable, before getting that far. But, with Pinkie… heavens, I don’t want to think about that.
--Several Hours later, Luna’s personal Room.—
“So, Alex, how are you feeling?” I said to the sick human. I knew the spell backfired a bit. It had made Alex sick, but not with a cold or flu. It made him just sick. That’s it, just sick…Nothing special; nothing dangerous.
“Better…. A bit… Its… it’s just so much to take in…”
“Would you like to talk about it?
“Y…yes… but, if you don’t mind. Please stay silent when I'm talking…”
I nodded, and lay down by his side. I was indeed Anthro, but he found that to not a huge surprise.
“I'm… I'm not sure how to start…. I have all memories… I'm Alex Tranity Pie, a sibling to one of the best ponies I know. And that’s both Human and Anthro talking. But, it seems that, even in both worlds, I did the same thing. Invent. Only, here, in Equestria, the tech I was making was not that of big tech, but of magic cores. How I continue to make things, even on Earth, it’s strange. Stranger being is I’m not… not used to this. I'm… I'm smart yes… but…. Not ready…”
“More importantly, I'm sure everypony and Anthro is being invited to a party by my sis. That…That will be awkward, but… I guess; if one thing is sure… it will become clear sometime… I need rest to clear my head…”
I sighed and got up, then started to walk over to the balcony. “I’ll be working tonight. Rest here, and then return to Ponyville in the morning. I will meet you there, for I have some business there as well.”
Once I knew Alex was asleep, I flew off into the distance. I hope we are both ready for what is to come.
