I moved into my new room with what little I had on me, it was spacious, had a nice big window, a bathroom, and a large bed, on all of the other news is slept on in equestria, I'd barely fit, but here I had some room to spare for once. I went to a trunk on the end of the bed and put all my weapons but the weird changeling rifle, and I started to look it over in detail, and I removed the makeshift sling. I pushed what looked to be a mat release and a small compartment on the back opened revealing a tray to put the needles in, the sides had some green spines similar to the needler, on top was a weird holographic scope, it looked as if someone had taken the front and top of the nechrochasm and put it on the lower rear portion of a needler rifle, and then added the needle parts back on, although it was cool to be honest. I chucked it in the trunk and grabbed my pistol and knife back, and started to explore the castle.

The castle was huge, and the whole thing was ornatly decorated from floor to ceiling. I was surprised I didn't get lost.

Cadence pov- en route to canterlot

"Oh shining I can't wait to meet the new alicorn," I said excitedly, I didn't know what to expect, oh the possibilities!

" I know Cadie, you've been saying that the whole trip," Shining said boredly, How could he be so bored at a time like this? His little sister engineered an alicorn! Flurry squirmed and giggled a bit,

"Hey flurry, do you want to meet the alicorn too?" I asked flurry, I got a cute little gurgle in response.

Canterlot Castle Dining hall

" Nova, Princess cadence hath arrived," Luna called to me down the hall,

"Ok be there in a sec" I sprinted down the hallway and stopped next to Luna, I saw Cadence and Shining walk up to us.

" Hello! In princess cadence! Who are you? Oh and what's your talent?" Cadence asked excitedly, while shaking my hand.

"Whoa calm down there. Anyway I'm Nova, and my butt Mark thing makes no sense, I Don't know what it means or why it acts broken." I said a bit surprised at Cadence's enthusiasm.

"I'm shining armor, nice to meet you Nova, don't mind my wife, she'll calm down soon enough, and this is our daughter Flurry heart" shining said with a much more normal tone

"Cute kid" I said simply as Cadence tapped me on the shoulder.

"Can I see your cutie Mark? Maybe I can find out what it is" she said this time a little more collected.

"Sure I guess" I pulled down the side of my pants revealing my cutie mark to cadence, "just wait a sec" the mark flickered from the cannons and shield to something else for a split second then went back to normal, "the scientists that were examining it said that it had something to do with multiple conflicting talents, its weird"

" Well in can tell where the starry splotch thing behind the mark came from" she looked at Luna almost accusingly

"What hath we done wrong?" Luna almost panicked

"Luna I'm joking, nothing is wrong" cadence said in a calm and collected tone at last, "why do you have two horns?" she asked me

"I thing it had something to do with unstable magic cocktails and stabilising it, having to use it is annoying because it's really easy to set stuff on fire" I said matter of factly as Celestia walked in.

"Come everyone, dinner is ready" Celestia then turned and led everyone to the dining hall.

" Hey How bad was the first magic surge" Cadence asked me.

"It didn't happen until I started with stuff other than holding small things, you know like using magic for a long time or for large objects, I think I picked up a lead cube and held it up for about 2 minutes before I shot a hole through it, a crystal wall, and a tree behind the wall, much to Twilight's displeasure.

" mine happened when I picked up a glass of water, I thought I had it down but my magic surged and I vaporized the water and melted the glass, then the molten glass set the table on fire, thank goodness Celestia put it out. Cadence added with nostalgia.
We Sat down at the table and I was presented with a bowl of some kind of soup it looked like it had hay in it, I tasted it.

"Huh, odd" I said upon it touching my tounge.

"Do you not like it, you can always get something else" Celestia said questioningly

"No it's not that but,it's juzt that I've never had hay before, at the lab they gave me fruit and some lettuce most of the time, and twilight gave me mostly apples and some kind of drink she claimed to be nutritious," I said apologetically
We continued to eat until about 10:00 by my standards, then I decided to go to bed,

"G'night, I'm gonna go to bed cuz I have to wake up early tommorrow" I said while walking back to my room, when ingot there I undressed and went to sleep, undecided to put the pistol under my pillow in case the fucking griffins and changelings attacked again.

'Hoooooooooooooooooooonk' "Ahhh what the fuck is wrong with you" I looked up at Celestia holding an air horn, giggling, "ya know I like my eardrums, and I should have told you that I'm not one for getting up early" I growled

"Gotcha" she said stifling a laugh.

" uhhhhhhhhgghh, where's the coffeee "I groaned

"Fine here you go" she said teleporting me a mug of coffee, she giggled a bit more as I grabbed it, it was a bit lukewarm so I heated it up with plasma and took a sip, it had chili peppers in it, but I decided to not give Celestia a reaction, cuz it actually wasn't bad. "Thanks"

"It may he a little...hot" she said with a grin

"Actually it was kinda lukewarm, by the way thanks for adding chili powder, it's a nice touch"

"Oh come on, Even I can't tolerate those peppers, how can you possibly be able to stomach that stuff"

"Hah this is a joke, back where I came from there were chili peppers hot enough to make your mouth numb" I said a bit proud of myself for outsmarting her joke.

"How!? Those were the hottest peppers equestria has to offer," she said a bit shocked

"Selective growing" I said continuing to drink trying not to laugh at her dumbfounded expression, then I grabbed my phone with magic and took a picture, 'click'

" What was that for?" she asked apparently unaware of her hilarious expression

" Memories, and something to laugh at, take a peek" I turned the phone around and showed her,

"Haha haha haha haaa, my face, oh I never knew it could be so funny looking" she said out of breath from laughing at a face that perfectly displayed her complete and utter confusion, at fucking spicy peppers of all things.

" I'm keepin this for a long time," I quickly hid the phone and finally got up. I got dressed and armed myself, and Celestia teleported us to the range where the guards trained with various firearms.

"Finally I get to test this weird ass thing" I said looking over the changeling rifle.

"You should get some other weapons as well to broaden your abilities, Luna has offered to help financially for your arms and armor, show me what you can do" she said encouraging me to the course.

I loaded the gun,'chlik'. Aimed and fired, 'PZZHT!' ping the target rang, It felt good, I fired again and began to run through the training course, it was pleasing to me to do this again after what felt like forever, I started to think about home, then it hit me, why the fuck am I here, why..., I dropped my gun and sat there, why? Anger built in my chest, I wanted to kill that little purple bitch, and I fucking would! "You little purple BITCH, I'm gonna fucking KILL YOU!,

Celestia Pov

The odd rifle barked as nova took a shot, the target rang from the hit, a good shot, again, and again, she isn't half bad.
I saw her suddenly stop and drop the rifle, "why did you stop?" then I heard her cry out with the strength of the royal Canterlot Voice, then she ran out onto the crossbow range area of the grounds, "Nova,STOP!, what are you doing!?" I screamed, she didn't stop, seemingly ignoring the arrows and bullets puncturing her and still running at something, then I saw her take flight, "Please ...Stop," I yelled in vain at the enraged alicorn, then I remembered Twilight's failsafes, If I'm remembering right I can stop her by a tuned magic blast to the horns!, "I'm so sorry for this Nova" I shot her in the horn with the tuned magic blast and she cried out in pain, it reminded me of when I first had to confront my sister, she fell to the ground clenching her head in pain. "Nova, what in tartatus just happened!" I asked angrily

"No, I need to go back, need to go back, ahrgh, why am I stuck in this fucking place, why did it have to be me?" she mumbled almost too quiet to hear.

"Nova! Snap out of it, come on that's it" I said as her sanity returned to some extent, "What happened, why did you freak out"

"I...I....I Remembered too much, ih went out to the range with my friends often, some of the best f-fun I had, I-I Just wanna go home, I miss everything...." she was choking up through the whole sentence, I hugged her, obviously this had been building up I in her for a while. She just sat there softly weeping into my chest, this must have been just too much for her to block out, at least she isn't banished or dead. I looked at her, in less than 10 seconds she went from clean, calm, and collected, to a raging insane mess, all because she remembered her past life, she was pricked with a couple of arrows and bullet holes, if she were a normal pony she would be dead. I teleported us and her equipment to my bedroom so I could deal with this in private.
