Lord Solaris has finally found his second soul, the only problem with this is the fact that he is 10 millenniums old and his second soul is 7 years old and his pupil, so he bottles it up until the Grand Galloping Gala on Dusk Shine's 18th birthday.

He had found it, his second soul, his other half, the only problem is that he is 10 millennia old and his significant other was barely seven when they first met. So, on Dusk Shines 18th birthday, Lord Solaris Everfree has the Grand Galloping Gala held on Dusk's birthday as an act of unsaid love.

Hello young colt...

"Dad, I'm scared, I can't hatch an egg!"

Twilight Velvet looks down at his little seven year old colt hiding behind his forehooves waiting to be called up to present his magical ability to the two mares and two stallions that would decide his fate. "I'm sure you'll do fine, your mom and I are here for you and we'll stay and watch, just try your best sweetheart."

"Ok dad."

"Dusk Shine, please come to the stage for your magical demonstrations test."

"We love you Dusky."

"I know mom."

As Dusk approached the dragon egg on the stage he saw a very large pony come in the back and slip into the shadows, out of site. He tried to think of a hatching spell on the way up to the egg, but he could only think of spells that could only be preformed by alicorns and the highest level unicorns, he tried to think of something else as he zipped from one side of the cart to another, and then, as he stopped to say sorry for wasting the judges' time he felt a strong surge of magic come through from his core and up to his horn where it pooled until it got bigger and bigger and bigger, and then he saw white for what felt like forever. and he caught a glimpse of the stranger in the back. He was beautiful to say the least, his white coat seemed to glow like an aura was around him, his mane and tail burned like the fires of Tartarus, infinite and bright, his large horn, decorated with a simple gold band with a small ruby embedded in it, rested nobly on his brow, his wings unfolded in shock as he reeled back by the onslaught of magic coming from Dusk.

When the white light burned out the alicorn, as Dusk had observed, came forwards to Dusk and he looked at Dusk, stared into the depths of his violet eyes. Then with a swish of his head he turned the dragon back to a baby, turned his parents and judges back to ponies, and restored the damage done to the tower they all stood in.

"You there, are you his parents?"

"Yes Lord Solaris, I am Night Light and this is my husband Twilight Velvet. I'm so sorry about the damages done, he still has a lot to learn about control."

"Pish posh, control is easy, learning to fully develop the full extent of his powers is the hard part. But if he is willing to study hard and actually learn from me, then I see no reason as to why he shouldn't come and study with me personally as my pupil at the Canterlot castle."

"Wha..."

"Dusk Shine, as the God of the day and sun, I believe that it is about time I had a pupil, don't you think thats reasonable?"

"Logically speaking yes, if you personally tutor someone, then they would be able to pass on the information you give them should something ever happen to you, but I doubt anything will happen considering that your immortal and perfectly capable of defending yourself and our nation."

"That is a very mature answer for such a young colt, might I ask why you answered in such a way?"

"I don't see the sense in being immature outside of my own home, it sets a bad example for yourself and others may perceive that immaturity as also being unknowledgeable."

"Well, I do think we will get along quite well, but you are still but a colt, you may act as you would at home if you like when in the castle and we aren't in a lesson. Think of it as a second home."

"Alright then, whens our first lesson Sol?"

*chuckles*"Tomorrow at seven."

"But thats when the sun rises... ARE YOU GONNA SHOW ME HOW TO RAISE THE SUN?!"

"Yes, I will show you, and maybe when your older, you may try it."

"This is officially the best day ever!"

"Do you know of Prince Bolero? We're having a dinner tonight and if it isn't to much trouble, I would like you to meet him."

"Bolero is gonna be there?! Can I go mom and dad, please, please, pleeease?!"

*chuckles*"I take it you already know of him then."

"Well of course, he's the best foalsitter in all of Equestria!!"

"Oh, I had no idea he foal sat you. You must let him come then if he knows Bolero. We were actually planning on having somewhat of a 'royal sleepover' and Dusk is more than welcome to stay, I'm sure he hasn't seen Bol in some time since he's been so busy in the Crystal Empire."

"Well it's ok with me, what about you Night Light? Do you think we can leave our little colt in the hooves of the two most powerful rulers of Equestria for one night?"

"Well... I guess it would be ok for one night... I guess..."

"It'll be fine mom, I already have everything essential for tonight and tomorrow, my favorite books, ink, quills, blank scrolls, my portable telescope, and Smarty Pants of course. And if I stay I won't be late for my first lesson!"

"Well, you are prepared, thats for sure, and we can get you a pillow, blanket and tooth brush of course, and you can shower after the sun has been raised."

"Alright, that seems fair, you can go."

"Yes!! Thanks mom, thanks dad, I'll see you tomorrow!!"

"Bye Dusky!"

"Goodbye sweety, see you tomorrow!"

And with that the colt and the alicorn walked in tandem out the back door and to the main entrance of the castle.

Royal Slumber party

Author's Note

I am a lazy fuck who decided for this to be Dusk's first lesson so I can time skip most of the boring shit and get strait to the good stuff with more... Duslaris? Solusk? I like the second ship name, comment which one is better or make a new one!

Royal Slumber party

As the two walked Solaris found himself drifting off in thought, he wondered about many things in his old age. He has yet to find a mate good enough for his average standards and throughout the lonely years he has yet to understand the whole soulmate thing and often ponders the subject in his free time. He has always known it would be a stallion with bright intellect and stunning looks, with a heart as bright as the sun but secluded like the moon. It had been so long since he had wondered if his fantasies would become reality one day. He had all but lost hope in the face of despair, until he started to wonder about this young colt, he started to go through the daydreams of the ponies for fun as a young stallion when he was bored or had nothing better to do and had kept up the habit. It is much like how his younger brother used to dream walk, he himself would cast an intricate spell while he daydreamed so he could see those dreams. This purple colt really caught his eye though one day, he was in an art class, but instead of thinking of what he was drawing the young colt was daydreaming about the microscope he would receive on his fifth birthday. Sol was infatuated with this young colt since that faithful day and had watched him grow, he had seen his daydreams of being accepted to Lord Solaris's School For Gifted Unicorns and when he was, Sol made it a priority to be there that day, he had his private scribe cancel his entire day in preparation to see this one student. Why must he be so naive when it comes to love, why can he not come forth with the conclusion that his second soul is this colt standing in front of him! Why is it this colt in the first place?

"Sol, we're here! Can I ask the guard to open the gates for us?! Oh, is Bol here yet? I hope he is!"

"Sure, you can ask the guards to open the gates, and I don't know if he's here yet little one."

"Oh, ok... Excuse me sirs! Could you open up the gates for Sol and I?"

"And you are?"

"Sol's new pupil!"

"And Sol is?"

"How dare you! Sol is Lord Solaris!"

"Oh, my apologies young sir! I didn't mean anything by it I- Lord Solaris, I assure you I meant no disrespect!"

"It is quite alright, I didn't realize he would run ahead like that with out me."

"So sorry sire, let me open the gates for you."

"Thank you sir."

~~~

"Dusk, until the guards and other nobles know your my pupil I want you to stick close to me so they know your not an intruder and have you put in the dungeon until they can take you to me for questioning."

"I-I'm sorry S-Sol, I didn't m-mean to, I-I was just excited..."

"I know child, it's alright, you have had quite a big day and are only excited to be my pupil and see Bolero."

"Uhuh!"

"Well, it looks like the crystal carriage is just coming over the Canterlot skyline!"

"Bolero! Sunshine, sunshine, ladybugs awake!"

"Clap your hooves and do a little shake!"

"Excellent timing if I do say so myself."

"Bolero? Its good to see you! Why pray tell is your carriage all the way out there though?"

"That my dear uncle are the presents I brought with me for you and Dusk, although I was going to make a house visit tomorrow to see him, but since he's here he can have his presents now! Wait, why are you here? Did you get accepted to the school?! I promise I didn't put in a good word with the judges or Sol!"

"It's even better, I passed the entrance exam but I accidentally turned mom, dad, and the judges into plants, turned the dragon egg that I was supposed to hatch into an adult, and to top it all off Sol saw the entire thing! Now I'm his pupil and my first lesson is how to raise the sun tomorrow, he even said I could try when I'm older!"

"Wow... He really promised to do that? Sol last time I asked you said if I even attempted it you would send me to the moon."

"You weren't and still aren't ready, Dusk will probably get to try first considering he has shown the magical level that of an alicorn. An aging spell of that stature is almost beyond me for Faust's sake!"

"Well, lets head inside and eat, then presents after that!"

"Ok!"

~~~

"So, for Sol I have a tapestry recovered from Everfree castle, all thanks to Daring Do, a hoof stitched pillow case made of ewes(crystal sheep) wool and embroidered with a sunset, and a book on philosophy written by René Descartes of Prance in the 1500's."

"These are wonderful gifts Bole! I will cherish them greatly."

"I'm glad you like them uncle, and for you Dusk, a book on the history of Eqestria, exclusive from the Crystal Library, A new portable telescope, a journal so you don't have to keep track of all those scrolls, and a new outfit for Smarty Pants."

"I love it all Bole!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Can we go star gazing tonight? I wanna use my new telescope!"

"Oh my! I have to raise the moon!! Lets go every pony!!"

~~~

"Alright, lets see here, the moon is full... the stars are in order... hmmm, ah thats it! Dusk, look at the stars and tell me what you see."

"Alright... well, there all backwards for starters and- oh my Faust, there all backwards!! Can you fix them Sol?!"

"Yes."

"Then do it!!"

"No. I want you to. You know where they go, now put them there."

"W-what?! I cant do that!! Only you have control of the sky!!"

"Well now I want you to try. What did I say about studying hard and learning from me, this is a surprise lesson, I had no intention of doing this until I suddenly thought of it."

"Well, it couldn't hurt to try..."

"Thats the spirit Dusk, you can do it! If I did it as a foal, you can to!"

"Thanks Bole."

"Just do a levitation spell and imagine them how they should be."

As Dusk walked up to the front of the balcony he looked at the sky and thought of how chaotic it looked up there, the constellations were backwards and sideways and upside down, and places in the wrong spots. He felt the energy bubble from his core again, the inexplicable feeling moving through his body and pooling at his horn, he imagined Sol standing in the auditorium as he cast the spell, the look of shock and the way he looked so much more like a pony than a sun God, the normality of his reactions and their conversations. It made Dusk have this urge to be there for his teacher when no one else was because Dusk feared that Sol wasn't as happy as everyone perceived him to be.

As you grow I become anxious...

Dusk is twelve now~~~

Dusk has grown up well, he helps with the stars when he stays late enough and Solaris has become quite attached to the small colt as he grew under his protective vision. 'Why must I think of such things, he is only yet twelve, maybe when he is an alicorn... but when will that happen? *sigh* To many questions and to soon Sol...' The alicorn walked along the multitudes of halls and past many doors until he stopped at one that was intricately carved with the words of protection and lock spells, the color was violet though, that was the only thing that seemed out of place, the color. Many a pony would walk past the strange door and wonder why it was violet of all colors.

"Dusk? Are you here?"

"One second Sol, I just... gotta... get... the book... GAAAH!!"

"Dusk?! Dusk, I'm coming in!!"

"Sol, I'm fine! Just let me open the door for you!"

"Why?! I can open it perfectly fine myself, let me just read the runes... ah, yes *magic horn swish* AH!!"

"I TOLD YOU NOT TO TRY AND OPEN THE DOOR!!!"

"WELL HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW?!"

"Oh, I don't know, maybe you should have LISTENED TO ME!!"

*exhale*"I'm sorry Dusk, I should have listened to you.."

"It's ok Sol, you couldn't have known about the runes, there are a lot of them..."

"I just wanted to tell you that dinner is almost ready."

"Ok, thanks Sol."

"Your welcome dusk."

"Sol?"

"Yes Dusk?"

"I love you..."

"As do I little one..."

Now he's fifteen~~~

"Sol, why are you sending me away to Ponyvill?! Did I do something wrong?"

"No, never, you are perfect, I just want you to oversee the one-thousandth Summer Sun Celebration."

"Really!? Are you really entrusting me with that much responsibility?!"

"Well of course, you are completely capable and I trust you. Besides, this is good practice."

"Practice for what?"

"All in due time shall you find out Dusk."

"Ok, I should be going soon, I love you Sol."

"As do I little one..."

Sorry, i'm a lazy fuck.
He's eighteen now~~~

"Sol? Where are we?"

"We are in my dreamscape."

"Why? And why aren't the guys here to?"

"This is only for you to see. Do you remember what I told you when you first left Canterlot?"

"You said I would understand all in due time... but what does that have to do with this?"

"This is when you understand... this is when you embrace your destiny. Are you afraid?"

"No, not if you say this is my destiny, I'm not afraid."

"Good, no matter what happens, know that I love you..."

"I love you too Sol..."

*Magic-ey magic times!*(you know what happens)

Solaris starred as his pupil rose into the sky, slowly but surely, a bit of his soul snapped off and floated up to Dusk as his soul surrounded it's host body. Sol never let himself look away from the birth of his pupil, wings started to form on his back, his horn grew visibly longer and sharper, his slightly chubby body grew a bit and became lean and skinny, and his mane grew slightly, becoming more wavy. He was lowered to the ground in an aura of his own cutie mark.

"Welcome Dusk Shine Prince of Friendship."

"Awesome! I got a new flying buddy!!"

"I've never seen this happen before!"

"Sol, how is this possible?"

"You were always destined for greatness, it took at least half a millennium to realize that one of my pupils would become an alicorn, they all failed though, so here you stand..."

"But what will happen? Will we continue with our lessons and studies?"

"Sadly no, I have taught you all that I know. But it is now your turn to take on a pupil."

"Will we ever see each other anymore?"

"Of course we will, just because I'm not your teacher doesn't mean we aren't friends anymore little one."

"So I still have my room in the castle?"

"Untouched and as you left it."

"Then can we all have a Royal Slumber party with Bolero, Gleaming, Spines and the guys?!"

*chuckles* "I don't see why we can't have that put together. All of you, come, anyone who can't fly can use the carriage, I will fly with the three of you."

"Um, while everyone gets their stuff, can you show me how to fly? Eheh, I... have no idea what to do..."

"Of course, it would be an honor Prince Dusk."

*sarcasm*"Thanks, now help me before the others get back please!"

"Alright, alright, what you do is spread your wings, crouch down, then leap up into the air, and flap your wings, like this."

"Ok, let me try, one.. two.. three!"

" Dusk, open your eyes!"

"I'm flying... I'm flying! Woohoo!!!"

"Well done Dusk! Now, try and keep up!"

"Oh it's sooo on!"

The two alicorns raced around Ponyvill, above town hall under bridges, through the smoke clouds coming for the train as it pulled into the station, jumping around in the Golden Oaks library's branches, they went all the way up to the orchards of Sweet Apple Acres. Then Sol stopped. Just atop the hill crest looking out over the horizon, watching the sun fall on it's own accord, only aiding slightly as it sunk into the ocean and burnt out. Then came the moon, with it's craters in the shape of a stallions head it rose to overlook the ponies as they slept still and silent.

"Where are the stars Sol?"

"I want you to help me with them tonight Dusk. Just like old times..."

"I wouldn't have it any other way Sol..."

Then, in an aura of purple, the stars appeared, one by one, they stood, side by side, in tandem with the moon, Forever together, yet forever alone in the fact that they couldn't talk to one another.
