New Moon

Chapter 2

By Greed the Giving

“...and so that’s why we are going down here Twilight, to see if my friend Greed have completed what he started almost a thousand years ago and you all get to meet him at the same time.” Celestia tell the Mane Six after they had the celebration in Ponyville, and have now returned to the old castle, with a few guards in toe that were stationed at the entrance of the castle and the passageway that they are now going through.

“But Princess why did you say it was urgent for us to come with you, you could have brought him back with the both of you when you left here and stopped by at the library.” Twilight says with a confused look on her face.

“OHOHOHOH I KNOW WHAT’S GOING ON” exclaims Pinkie Pie, “It has something to do with Nightmare Moon and us being the Elements of Harmony right Princess?” Pinkie asks with her friends looking at her with shocked and confused looks on their faces.

Without showing any surprise at this at all Celestia smiled and nodded while Luna said with a sad look “You are right Pinkie Pie, for what you all have done was not save Equestria from Nightmare Moon, but saved both me and her from a terrible fate, one that if we were not banished, would have befallen us much sooner.” This really confuses the Mane Six, what were they talking about? How was Princess Luna in danger from that involved Nightmare Moon, and who is this mysterious friend that they were going to meet when they hear some weird music coming from behind a metal and glass door, that never should have been there. Celestia opens and walks in the door followed by Luna while the rest of us look at each other, excluding Pinkie, with looks of concern on our faces as we start to follow in.

“What are you doing to Nightie, cause that looks to be a very compromising position you are in Greed.” Luna says with a slight chuckle to this ‘Greed’ pony when we walk over to see a midnight blue coat with light lavender mane and tail, a horn with bat wing like a thestral, which is a shockingly weird combination to say the least.

She turns to look at Luna and Celestia with a big grin on her face and says “Sisters how do you like my new body, I think it could have just a little bit more height to it but at least I have one for myself right.” She turns to look at us and we see the same eyes that looked at us earlier thou with happiness and joy in them that it’s hard to believe that she was so evil not even four hours ago. “Ah there are the heros of the hour, how are you six doing?” she asks and waits for a reply.

“I’m doing fine, just a little shocked to see a thestral alicorn were there shouldn’t be one.” I say to her, which causes her to laugh.

“Oh Twilight Sparkle you are just so funny, but I do agree with you that a thestral alicorn is odd to say the least, but Greed here told me that my body has taken the form that my soul wanted, isn’t that right Greed?” she asked one of the weirdest creatures I have seen in my life.
It looked like one of us ponies but had no fur except on it’s face, which was smaller than ours, but still similar, small eyes that are a brown color. His mane is an auburn red coloration, and he is as tall as we are.

“Hello, my name is Greed, it’s nice to finally meet you girls after knowing about you for a few years, and before you ask Twilight a lot of what I know about you girls is strictly need to know information about your futures, and a few parallels, but anything else you can ask me about.” he says while smiling at our shocked faces, “Well the only one of you that can guess right on any of what I know is Pinkie Pie, but that’s cause she’s Pinkie and no one can really figure her out. But anyway still nice to meet you all and I hope we can be friends.” Greed says after that little bit of shocking info, oh I plan to learn everything that he knows about us and everything about him even if it drives me insane.

“Well I’m wondering what is going on here and who is this new alicorn right here?” Rarity asks Celestia, Luna, and Greed. I was to distracted by what I was told to remember what was going on.

“Well let me start at the beginning, but before that would any of you nice some tea and snacks?” Greed asks. We all agree that that would be nice and Rarity even mentioned that he is a very good host to have. After he has made the tea and even brought some snacks he sits and begins telling us of where comes from, who he is, how he got to Equestria, how he knew the princesses and their parents, and what he plans to do if he can stay longer in our world.

“I am quite surprised that you let them know about the show Greed, but why might I ask did you tell them?” Celestia asked after finishing her third cup of tea. We all started to wonder why too, or at least I was wondering, and what Greed said was very interesting.

“For Twilight really, I know she was going to ask about how I knew about them and how I knew the exact spot that she would ‘fight’ Nightmare Moon, and I can tell that she has more questions for me, but right now is not a good time for that at all.” Greed said, but how did he know that? “I know that you are a very curious mare Twilight and I can only reveal info as it happens or after, which reminds me I need to go talk to a certain pony after I make sure Night here is stable enough to leave this area of the castle.”

“I can help with that if you want Greed, I’m good with spel formulas and matrices if you would let me learn your type of magic?” I ask because when will an opportunity like this happen again in my lifetime.

“Well Twilight I would be honored if you would help me, but there is not much I could teach you that you don’t already know of my magic.” Greed says with a smile.

“And why is that?” I ask.

“Because Twilly you have been reading quite a few of my books, in fact I’m your favorite author on magic and it’s uses, though this use is a few centuries to late to publish.” Greed said with a chuckle, which confuses me a little bit. “My work is under the pen name of ‘Starwhirl the Bearded’ and this is where Twilight will scream in 5, 4, 3…” he says while covering his ears as I am shocked to learn that my hero is right in front of me.

“YOUR STARWHIRL THE BEARDED AND YOU CAN'T TEACH ME ANYMORE TO MAGIC!!!!!” I yell at the top of my lungs.
