Chapters It was a beautiful day in Equestria. Everyone was enjoying the sunshine, by going outside by either playing sports or just going for a nice nature, but we are not going to be focusing on the entire populace. No, we are going to be focusing on three very specific people. To be even more specific we are focusing on a family. The father of said family was currently tending to a grill where he was cooking up some burgers. He had an orange skin tone and a red and black mohawk for his hair. There standing next to the grill was a picnic table which was currently being set up by a woman, who had a brown skin tone and black hair stilled so that it covered half of her face. And of course was also a five-year-old kid who was currently playing with a ball. He also had a brown skin tone and black hair which he had cut into a buzz cut. "Hey, Leo it's time to eat come and get it!"
"Coming dad." With that, Leo picked up his ball and ran over to the picnic table.
"Woah there tiger slow down or you'll trip." Said the mother while placing down three plates with their respective burgers on it. After that, the father closed up the grill and sat down with the rest of the family. Then they all started to eat their respective burgers. After about five minutes the father asked.
"So sport how are you enjoying your day in Camp Everfree."
"I like it. It's really fun. Can we come here next week as well?" Asked Leo.
"Sure Leo will see if we can get off work at the weekend." Said the mother. After that she smiled, because Leo had the happiest smile that she had ever seen. "Now Leo finish up your lunch so that we can go and play later." With that, they enjoyed the rest of their meal in piece.
***
After about three hours of enjoying themselves. The father said.
"Okay, guys I already packed up everything. Let's go home." Leo was sad that they had to leave but he still got into the car. "Seat belts fastened?" He nodded. "Okay then let's go." Then he started the car and we drove off." After about five minutes of them driving in the forest, the mother asked.
"Um, honey are we lost."
"No, I know where we are going." After another minute he said. "No, let me rephrase that we are lost. Hey, what are those green lights?" After he got closer he saw what it was.
When he finally recognised what they were. He quickly turned the car around and drove off. "Damned timberwolves. I thought we left those behind when we left Equestria. Ah well, that's just my luck." One of them caught up to the car and bashed himself into it making it swerve. "Oh, so we playing like that are we." Then he snapped his fingers and then the car grew spikes after that he bashed the car into the wolf killing it, but what he didn't see is that one of the bigger wolves stepped out making the car crash into him destroying him immediately.
"Okay, I didn't expect that." Said the mother. After some time the wolves gave up.
"Okay now that we lost them let's... The breaks are not working." And after that, the car started to swerve. "And the steering's shot. Hold on tight this might be a rocky. Oh shit." After that, they hit a tree head on. Wrecking the car completely. It destroyed it so bad that it caught fire. After the parents came to they quickly tried to unbuckle themselves but were sadly unsuccessful. After that, they woke up Leo. When he did the mother said.
"Leo, listen to me you have to run away now before the car explodes." Said the mother. "Unbuckle yourself and run. Run and don't look back!"
"But mum, dad I don't want to leave you two to die out here." Cried, Leo.
"Leo please don't make this any harder than it has to be. Now go." Said the father. After that, the father unbuckled his son. Then Leo opened the car door and started to run. He ran and ran like his life was on the line. After two minutes he heard an explosion and then he ran even faster. When another five minutes he was too exhausted to run anymore and he simply fell unconscious.
***
When Leo woke up again he noticed that he was inside of a cave, but that wasn't the weird part. The weird part was that he was completely clean. After he finished his look around, he heard a deep voice say. "Ah, your awake child." After that Leo turned around and he saw a big dragon facing him.
Leo jumped back and tried to run away, but the dragon grabbed him with his tail and placed him back on the pile of leaves that Leo just now noticed that he was sleeping on. "Now child don't be afraid I'm not going to hurt you. Let's start with names my name is Zyon and who are you?" Asked the now named Zyon.
"Um, my name's Leo. Nice to meet you. Um, can I ask a question?" Then Zyon grinned.
"You just did, but yeah you can."
"What are you? I mean what species are you?" After that, the dragon started to laugh. "Hey what's so funny?"
"Oh it's nothing Leo it's just that usually people already know what I am, but I guess people change over a thousand years time. I am what is known as a dragon, but to be more specific a European dragon." Then his ears twitched and then he said. "It looks like dinner has arrived." After that, another dragon appeared at the entrance of the cave. She looked to be the same species as Zyon but the only difference was that she had purple scales.
"Honey I'm home and I brought a huge haul of fish with me." She said while dropping off the huge pile of fish on the ground. "Oh and look, the child's awake as well how wonderful. Hiya there my name's Midnight and who are you."
"Uhm my name's Leo. It's nice to meet you." Then he turned to Zyon. "Um, could you tell me what you are going to do with me?" Then Midnight spoke up.
"Well we are going to raise you since when we found you we tried to find your real parents, but we sadly didn't find anything." After that Leo remembered what happened and then he started to cry. "Woah there Leo, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Then she dropped the food and went over to Leo and dropped a wing around him, hugging him. After around five minutes of him crying Leo finally calmed down and then Zyon decided to ask.
"Leo, are you calmed down enough to tell us what happened before we found you?"
"Yeah 'sniff' I think I can." Then he breathed in and out and then he began his explanation of what happened happened. Everything from the timberwolves attack to his parents dying. After that Midnight said
"Oh, you poor thing. You must have gone through allot, but don't you worry anymore we are going to take care of you." Then she gave him another wing hug and then she went to the fish. "So how do you like your fish rare, medium or well done."
"Um well done please." After that, she breathes a small stream of fire and cooks it to perfection. When she finished her cooking she put the fish on a leaf and handed it to Leo.
"Here you go and make sure to not choke on the bones." With that, she placed a fish in front of Zyon and herself then they cooked it and they started to eat.
***
After they finished their meals midnight went to smoke the rest of the fish while Zyon took Leo outside to do something. "So Leo what do you do for fun?"
"Well, I usually play football with my dad. I guess we could try that."
"Okay several questions come to mind, but I think that the most prominent one is. What is this football and how do you play it?"
"Oh, this is going to be a long day." Said Leo. After that, he continued to explain the game to him. After around twenty minutes of explaining Zyon knew how to play the game.
"Okay then wait right here and I am going to go and find us a ball." After that, he flew away to find said ball while I simply sat down and waited. After about a minute Leo got bored, so he picked up a stick and started to draw the football field. After around ten minutes he heard Midnight say.
"Hey, Leo what are you doing? And where's Zyon?" She asked while her face contoured into a frown.
"Oh don't be mad at him. He went into the forest to find me a ball so that we could play a game. As for what I'm doing, I'm drawing the field so that we can play." That seemed to have calmed her down.
"Hey, can I join as well?"
"Sure. Let me just explain the rules." With that, he repeated the explanation to Midnight. When he finally finished the explanation, Zyon returned with a little bit of a selection of different balls. He had everything from basketballs to bowling balls to baseballs.
"Zyon did you go to the town and found those at the dump." Asked Midnight. He nodded and then he said.
"Yeah, I did. You would be surprised what the humans throw away. I also went to the stream to clean them up." After that, he dropped them all down and asked. "So is anyone of them a football?" After that Leo took a look and after some searching, he finally found a football he picked it up and said.
"Okay then lets play." With that, they all went into positions and started to play.
***
After around two hours of play time we heard a loud roar and after that, a bright light appeared. "Leo duck." After that, I quickly ducked and when I did a huge fireball went over him. After that, he heard two new voices.
"Zyon get away from that human. He's going to kill you." Said a dragon that looked something like this.
The other dragon looked like this.
"What are you talking about? First, this is only a child and he is our adoptive son so you will make sure to either calm down and get down here or leave." Said Zyon. After that, they looked confused but after a minute they both got down. After that the one with the purple scales said.
"Look I'm sorry for my husband's rash behaviour I really tried to stop him, but he newer listens. Let's introduce us. My name is Amelia and that grumpy dragon over there is named Axel."
"Hello there. Again I'm sorry for my little outburst over there it's just that I don't have a good history with humans. So who are you guys?" Then Zyon decided to speak up while Midnight took checked Leo for damages.
"My name is Zyon over there is my mate Midnight and the human is called Leo. Now can I ask you what you are doing here?" After that Axel answered.
"Oh, we were just moving to a cave that is not far from here, because of food reasons. I hope you don't mind." Then Zyon smiled.
"Of course I don't mind you guys go right ahead. There's enough food for everyone. Now if you excuse us it's getting late and we need to prepare to go to sleep. With that, I wish you goodnight." After that, he picked up all of the toys and put them away while Midnight picked Leo up and placed him on his back.
"Um, Midnight what are you doing?" After that, she launched herself into the air with him screaming the whole time. after the initial shock wore off, he stopped screaming and looked around and was completely baffled by the view. After a minute of that, he asked. "So where are we going?"
"We are going to a hot spring to bathe you and after that, we are going to go to bed. Now hold on." After that, she dive-bombed straight down with Leo enjoying every step of the way. When they finally landed Midnight quickly wrapped her tail around Leo and set him on the ground. After that, she got into the water. "Come on Leo get undressed and get it the water's perfect." At first, he looked a little bit embarrassed, but then he realised that she is walking around naked so with that in mind he slowly undressed and after that, he entered into the water and when he did he simply sighed and enjoyed the warmth. "Well, you seem to be enjoying yourself. Is the water warm enough?"
"Yeah, it's perfect." After that, they simply enjoyed the water. After around fifteen minutes we were all gathered in the cave and we were ready to go to sleep.
"So did you enjoy yourself today Leo?" Asked Zyon.
"Well besides for almost dying twice and for losing my parents. It was actually quite fun and I hope to have even more of them in the future." Then he yawned.
"Well, then you enjoy your rest. Goodnight Leo." Said Midnight.
"Goodnight Leo." Said Zyon.
"Goodnight mum, goodnight dad." He said and after that, they all fell asleep.

Chapter 2 "getting to school"
***Dreamscape***
A sixteen year old Leo was standing in the middle of a forest clearing. His eyes were closed and he was waiting for something after that he heard a voice say. "Okay then dragon boy lets begin this session." After that a yellow triangle wearing a top hat and bow tie appeared. Leo then opened his eyes and waved to him. "Lets start with what we have learned yesterday." After that he snapped his fingers and after that a ten meter boulder appeared. "Levitate it." After that Leo stepped up to the boulder and extended his right arm.
"Okay, lets see if I can do this any better now." He said. After that, he concentrated and then a red aura appeared around his hand and the boulder. After that, he snapped his fingers and the boulder flew off of the ground.
"Good job dragon boy. You're definitely getting faster at this. Now throw it away and let's continue with your fire spells." Leo did as he was asked and launched the boulder away. It flew and flew and after around ten seconds they heard a crash.
"Okay, Bill so what are we going to try today." Asked Leo.
"Today we are going to work on your fire breath." Then he snapped his fingers and then six target appeared around the clearing."Now get into position and strike each of the targets without missing a single one. For every target that you miss they are going to transform into a monster and then you are going to have to fight them. Aaand begin." After that he concentrated his magic on his lungs making a warm feeling appear in his lungs. After that was complete he drew the flame up to his mouth filled it up and shot a fire ball at the first target after that he turned around and shot another five fireballs at the last targets. Sadly he missed two of them and they transformed into timberwolves. That enraged him so much that he breathed fire out creating dragon claws on his arms. After that he launched himself at the two wolves tearing them to shreds. Bill was surprised. "Okay Leo calm down. How about we continue on some of the less flashy powers that you have?" After Leo calmed down, he dispelled his fire claws and after that he said.
"Yeah, I would love to do that. How about we start with clairsentience." Then Bill snapped his fingers and then a table and chair appeared.
"Why don't we work on two at the same time. Lets work on clairsentience and automatic writing at the same time. You sit down an I'm going to teleport around then will see what answers you felt when we check the paper." After that Leo sat down. Then he was blindfolded and then the exercise began. After about ten minutes of Bill teleporting around and Leo writing down answers, they stopped and checked his answers. "Well besides a couple mistakes you actually did quite good." After that the dreamscape started to crack. "Well it looks like our time here has come to an end see you in the real world."
"Sure see you on the other side." After he said that the dreamscape shattered and he started to wake up.
***Real world***
When he came to he started to feel someone poking his stomach. After that, someone started to tickle him and when that sensation registered in his brain he started to laugh and convulse. "Midnight stop it, stop it. I'm up, I'm up." After that, the tickle attack stopped and he heard her say.
"Good morning sleepyhead it's time to get up and go to school, or would you rather be late and make a bad first impression." After that, she got away from me so that I could get up.
"Yeah, I guess your right. Well then let me get dressed and I'll come to breakfast."
"Okay, then breakfast is waiting for you on the table. Hurry up or else your father's going to eat it." With that said she left his room and went outside. Yeah, Leo's got his own room now. Well, you couldn't quite call it a room, because it was basically a small side tunnel which was reserved for him.
"Well then dragon boy what's on the agenda for today?"
"Well, first we are going to get dressed and then we are going to go to school and try to make some friends. Maybe even pull a prank on the entire school. I'm not too sure about that. Hey, could you think of something that we could do to prank the school?" Leo asked while putting on his jeans.
"I probably can... Give me about half an hour and I'll have something planed. See you then." With that Bills presence left his conscious mind. After that Leo finished dressing himself up. He put on a plain red T-shirt and after that he put on his black leather jacket and after that he put on his black shoes and backpack and after that he went towards the kitchen area of the cave. Where he saw his father was about to eat his breakfast.
"Dad don't you do it, or we are going to have a repeat of last week." Then Zyon stopped himself and said.
"Last time you just got lucky, this time I'm going to win." After that he picked up the steak and tried to bite into it, but he only bit into nothing. After that he looked around and found Leo holding the steak and eating it at the entrance to the cave. "Oh it's on." And after that he started to chase after Leo. Leo quickly booked it and started to run a t full speed towards the forest on the way he ran by Midnight so he quickly said.
"Midnight I need help dad is chasing me again meet me at the cliff bye." After that, he ran into the forest Zyon following close behind. Midnight just sighed and quickly took to the air and flew towards the cliff and while she was flying Leo weaved his way through the forest trying to lose Zyon in the thick forest.
"You're not getting away from me that easily Leo. Now give me that steak."
"You can get it from me when you rip it away from my cold dead hands." Said Leo while running by his neighbours Axel and Amelia.
"Here we go again... Who do you think is going to win this time?" Asked Axel.
"My gems are on Leo." Said Amelia, while placing a sapphire in front of herself.
"Mine are on Zyon. Let's see who wins." Said Axel, while placing a ruby in front of himself. After that, they both flew up into the air to get a better vantage point. Now, let's go back to the chase.
"Leo if you don't give me that steak you are going to be grounded."
"Dad we both know that you are not able to do that." After that, the trees parted to reveal a giant cliff. Leo stopped and then he turned around to reveal Zyon waiting there.
"Now I've got you exactly where I want you. Now hand me that steak." After that, he slowly advanced at Leo. Leo at first looked scared, but then he felt his mother annoyance behind him by using empathy. After that, he smirked.
"Well, dad it looks like I have won. It was a good chase though." After that, he turned around and jumped off the cliff.
"Leo no!" Screamed Zyon while trying to catch him. After that, he saw him flying on Midnights back flying towards the city. "That sneaky rat." After that, the two night furies went back down to the ground.
"Well, Axel pay up." Said Amelia, while extending her right claw. Axel placed his ruby into her claw while also grumbling under his breath. After that, they both went back inside.
***
After about ten minutes of flying Midnight and Leo finally got to the city of Canterlot. "So Leo did you enjoy your little morning run?"
"You know I did, but I really need to let him win one of these days... Nah he's just going to have to outsmart me. So where are we going to land?"
"Well I scouted out the area last night and I found a nice landing spot behind your school. That is where Axel is going to pick you up when you finish school. Now hold on tight because we are going to have to go super fast to not be seen by the other humans." After he grabbed on tight like his life dependent on this and then she sped up to super sonic speeds. When we finally stopped we were already standing behind the school. "Now you be safe and make some friends. Oh yeah and don't forget to go to the principle to get all of the paperwork. Goodbye Leo." While she was talking Leo climbed down from her and after he got down she quickly flew away.
"Well let's get this show on the road." And with that said he started walking to the front of the school. Once he got there he took a quick look around.
"This is going to be fun."
"What's going to be fun?" Asked Bill. Leo jumped a little, but then he calmed down and said.
"First don't scare me like that and second going to this school is going to be fun. Now if you excuse me I'm going to the principle to get myself properly situated." With that said he walked straight into the school. After about five minutes of searching he finally found the principals office and right before Leo would knock on the door Bill spoke up.
"Wait before you go in I have a question. How did you even get enrolled in this school?"
"That's easy I wrote a letter and I sent it to this school in that letter I also added my school report from elementary school. Now please be quiet before you get me in trouble." With that said he knocked on the door. After a couple of seconds, he heard a reply.
"Come in." Said a slightly bored female voice. With that prompt, he opened the door and stepped inside.
"Good morning I'm here to get my paperwork to enrol myself into this school." Then she smiled and said.
"Ah you must be Leo Yo Uni it's nice to meet you. My name is principal Celestia." Then she gave him her hand for a handshake, he of course shook it and then she said. "Please take a seat I have a couple of questions that you need to answer before you can be enrolled in this school." After that she opened a file cabinet and pulled out a file that was labeled Leo Yo Uni. She placed it on the table opened it. After that she started to ask her questions. "First lets start wit the simple ones. Do you have any allergies?"
"No, I don't have any." She wrote that down and then she continued.
"Do you have any hobbies that you like to do?"
"Yes, I actually do. I like to play sports especially football and I also like to go camping or just nature in it self." She also wrote that down.
"Okay, then Leo this is the final question. How do you like this school thus far?"
"The school looks to be very nice, with very nice and helpful class mates. So yeah the school is very nice and friendly." After that she closed the folder and put it back into the file cabinet then she opened a drawer under her desk and pulled out another file and a key. She placed them on the table and passed them over to Leo.
"Well, then Leo I'm proud to say that you are now a student attending Canterlot high. Congratulations." Then she gave him his hand for another shake.
"Thank you principle Celestia. I'll make sure to be the best student that I can be." Then he gave her his hand and they shook.
"I hope for the same thing. Now make sure that you bring me this file with all the paperwork inside finished tomorrow because the friendship games are approaching, so I want to see them done yesterday." With that said the bell started to ring. "Now go to the cafeteria and get yourself something to eat." He nodded and picked up the folder and made his way out of the office.
"Well that was easy. Now what?"
"Now my friend we go to the cafeteria and get myself something to eat." With that said he put the file into his backpack, he put the key into his pocket and then they made their way towards the cafeteria. Once Leo got to the cafeteria he was impressed to see that it actually looked quite nice.
After he finished his observation he stepped into the line and went forth to pick his food."So what do we do now dragon boy?"
"You know I newer got why you always call me dragon boy? Wait no let me rephrase that. I know why you call me dragon boy, I want to know why you are not calling me by my name."
"Because I know that it annoys you. So what are we doing?" While he was asking this Leo was picking out my food and placing it on his tray.
"Well we are going to eat now and after that, we are going to explore the rest of the school. After we finish that we are going to be wasting some time until Axel picks us up."
"Well you certainly have things planned out. I'll leave you to it I'm going to take a nap. Ta ta~. With that Bill disappeared and Leo was left alone once again. After that little conversation, he left the line and went to an empty table and started to eat. After around five minutes of him enjoying his meal, he heard a very familiar voice.
"Leo. Is that you?" Then he turned around and sure enough there was a yellow-skinned girl with red and yellow hair standing right in front of him.
"Sunset. Man, you've certainly grown taller, but you still use ketchup and mustard to die your hair. How's it going?" She punched him on the shoulder and then she sat down across from hair.
"Ha ha haven't heard that one before." She said in a sarcastic tone. "But in all seriousness what are you doing here?"
"Well, Sunset you're going to be interested to find out that I am now a student attending this school." That surprised her while he just took another bite from his salad.
"No way your joking, please tell me your joking."
"No, I'm attending tomorrow's my first day. So what did you do in these past couple of years?" After that, she seemed to get nervous, but she quickly calmed down.
"Oh, nothing much the most recent event that happened here was a little talent show. It's basically a large competition in which the entire school tries to show off their talents. It kinda ended in disaster and that is all that I'm telling you... And you what did you do in this time?" She asked after that she took a bite out of her meal.
"Nothing much. I and my family travelled allot and I saw allot of new places. The only thing that is worth mentioning is that my aunt Amelia is having twins and she is going to let me name them I can't wait for that. Other then that nothing interesting happened." I answered. After a minute of silence, he asked. "So Sunset have you met any new people?" At that, she smiled.
"Oh yeah, I can't wait for you to meet them if my watch is correct they should be coming here right about now." After that nothing happened. "I said right about now." She said a little louder." After that a pink skinned girl with a slightly darker pink hair which was completely puffy hair stile. Like it was literally filled with air and to make it even worse she scared Leo so much that he flew of off his chair.
"Ouch. Is this one of your friends Sunset." Said Leo, while he picked himself up. Then the pink monstrosity started to talk.
"Hi my name is Pinkie Pie, but you can call me Pinkie. Are you new here? You must be new hair because I know everyone here. Do you like parties? I specialise in parties..." After that, she started to speak so fast that it was basically just her babbling on. After a minute of her "talking", Leo put his hand on her mouth and said.
"It's nice to meet you now can you please tone it down just a tiny little way, because I'm this close before I fly off the handle." He punctuated that point by putting his fingers together. After that he removed his hand and then she said.
"Why would you fly off the handle if you're not even hanging on one?" After that, he simply turned to Sunset with a dumbfounded face. Sunset just shrugged and said.
"That's Pinkie for you. Just don't question her and your sanity will stay intact."
"Okay then. Any other friends that I should know about?" After that Pinkie spoke up.
"Yeah, there are Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Rarity." Then Sunset said.
"Speaking of friends, here they come." After that Leo turner around and sure enough there they were. The first one to speak up was a chalk white-skinned girl with an amazingly stilled purple hair.
"Hello, Sunset, Pinkie and... I'm sorry you must be new here my name is Rarity. May I ask who are you?" Leo then got up and gave her his hand then and then he said.
"My name is Leo Yo Uni, but you can call me Leo. It's nice to meet you. Now may I ask who the rest of you are?" After he asked that the orange coloured girl with blonde mane and wearing a cowboy or in this case cowgirl hat stepped forward and gave him a vigorous shake while she said.
"Hiya there partner my name's Applejack, but you can call me AJ it's nice ta meet ya." After that, she stopped her shaking and after that he said.
"It's nice to meet you AJ and may I say that is quite the hand shake you've got there." After her a butter yellow skinned girl with pink hair stepped forward and then she said in a quiet voice.
"Um my name's Fluttershy and it's nice to meet you as well."
"Well, it's nice to meet you as well." After that, she made her way to the table. After that, the light blue skinned girl with the rainbow hair stepped in front of him and said.
"And finally we left the best for last. My name is Rainbow Dash. Best football player and future wonder bolt. It's nice to meet you."
"Oh, so you're the best football player here. Well, I'm the best football player in Mexico, Russia and Japan. You ain't got nothing on me." He said while having a winning smirk on his face. He knew her type very well so he knew how to knock her ego down a peg or two and as he predicted her smirk turned into an angry frown.
"Are you threatening me?" She said in a dangerously low tone.
"Leo don't do anything stupid." Said Shimmer.
"Don't worry Sunset I'm just stating what's true." After that Rainbow dash said.
"That's it. You. Me. football field now. We are going to settle things there." With that said she stormed off.
"Great job Leo. Now you are going to get your face kicked in by her." Said Sunset.
"Again don't worry. I'm just going to knock her ego down a peg or two. Now if you excuse me now I need to find the football field." With that, he left the cafeteria. After that Sunset sighed and said.
"Let's go and follow them before they kill each other." With that, they all got up and ran after him.
***
After a minute Leo, Sunset and her friends got to the outside football field where Rainbow Dash was already training. When she noticed her friends and Leo she stopped her training and said. "Well look who finally decide to show up."
"Well sorry for not knowing my way around yet. Are you going to fault me for that." He said with a smirk.
"No, I guess not. Now get ready to play winner takes the title of the best football player in Canterlot." After that Leo took off his jacket and placed it on the tribune.
"Okay then lets play. First one to ten wins." With that Leo and Rainbow Dash went to the centre of the field to do the kickoff, but unnoticed to them, a red striped night fury was watching the entire game play from on top of the school
"Well, it looks like Leo is having a good time. Where's that fish that I caught because this looks like it's going to take awhile." Said Axel, while pulling out a fish. After that Leo and Rainbow started to play. Leo quickly took the ball for himself and started running towards Rainbows goal. She tried to stop him but was played. Then he shot and then he scored.
"One zip." Said Leo, while walking by Rainbow with a big know it all grin on his face.
"Oh, I'm going to enjoy wiping the ground with your face." Said Rainbow.
"I would love to see you try." After that she got so pissed that her face turned red. Then she went for the ball and kicked it straight at Leo. It flew so fast that it caught fire. Leo tried to block it, but when the ball struck him he was launched straight into his own goal. "One one." He said in a dazed voice. Then he shock his head and said. "Okay I can definitely see power, but power is nothing without skill."
"What do you mean?" She asked.
"Well let me show you." After that, he kicked the ball in front of himself and started running towards Dash. When he was about one meter away he kicked the ball into the air twirled around Dash and scored a goal. "And that is what I call skill. Two one."
"Wow, that was definitely good. I can definitely see how you got the title of best player, but there can only be one." With that said they continued playing. After about twenty minutes the score was tied nine to nine.
"Okay then this one is the deciding point. lets go winner takes all." Said Leo. With that said Rainbow started her attack she tried to get past Leo, but was ultimately stopped by him. Then he took the ball and made a mad dash for her goal. Right before he was going to strike the final goal rainbow dash kicked the ball into the air. After that Leo and Dash looked at each other and then they both jumped for the ball to kick it from both sides, but when they struck it it popped and they both fell to the ground.
"Oh no not another one." Said Rainbow.
"Wait this happened before?" Asked Leo while raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah, But it usually happens when Bulk Biceps plays. Oh well." After that Leo got up and walked up to Dash.
"Look Dash I'm sorry if I insulted you by saying those things. What do you say we call this a tie and say that we are both the best players and become friends." Then he lifted up his hand for a fist bump and waited.
"You know what your right lets put this behind us and be friends. Maybe you can join the football club." After that, she gave him the fist bump. After that Leo heard a high pitched whistle coming from the roof of the school.
"Well guys this was fun and all, but I need to go my uncle is waiting for me and he hates waiting." Everyone seemed to be a little saddened by that news. Especially Pinkie.
"But I didn't even throw you a welcome to Canterlot high party." She said in a sad voice.
"Sorry Pinkie, but I really need to go. Maybe tomorrow after school. Now I really need to go. See you all later." After that, he ran off to behind the school. Once there he met up with Axel.
"Well hello there Leo. One day at school and you are already surrounded by women. So who is the lucky mate?" After that remark, Leo started to blush. Then he lightly punched Axel and said.
"Shut up Axel. Even if I do like anyone of them you are going to be the last one to find out. Now let's go before someone finds us."
"Okay okay, party pooper. Jump on." After that he allowed Leo to climb on and then they quickly flew off towards the Everfree forest.
***
Once they both landed they were met with a peculiar scene. Amelia and Midnight were running around like someone cut off their heads while screaming. "The eggs are hatching. The eggs are hatching." When Axel heard that he also started to run around throwing Leo off. After he got back up he walked over to the nest where the eggs were located and found Zyon watching over them.
"Hiya pops are the eggs really hatching?"
"Yes, they are Leo. Can you please levitate the three chickens outside and calm them down. We don't want to scare the new borns." Leo simply nodded and went to do as he was asked. He concentrated and surrounded them with his red aura. After that, he levitated them towards himself and said.
"Now you guys calm down, or you are going to miss the magic moment. Now get your shit together and enter the cave." After that, he dropped them and then he went back to the nest. After about two minutes the rest of them followed. They arrived just in time to see the eggs crack and sure enough, two baby night furies popped out.
"Man they are so adorable." Said Leo.
"Yeah, they sure are. Hey, Leo. You want to name them?" Asked Amelia.
"Are you sure about that?"
"Yeah, you can do it. Let's see what you come up with." Said Axel. After that Leo looked at the two new dragons. After about a minute of thinking, he said while pointing at the black one.
"His name is going to be Toothless." Then he pointed to the blue one. "And her name is going to be Sapphire." After that, the baby dragons smiled and after that, they tackled Leo to the ground. After that everyone chuckled.
"Well, it looks like they like their new names and you as well." Said Zyon.
"Yeah, I guess they do." After that, the two little dragons fell asleep right on his chest.
"Oh, someones tired already. Let me take those two off of you and well take them to our cave. We'll probably see you again in the morning." With that Amelia picked up the two sleeping dragons, placed the on her back and after that she and Axel left the nest. After a minute Midnight asked.
"So how was your first day of school?"
"Oh let me tell you everything." After that, he started to talk about his day while they went towards their own cave.

Chapter 3 "Sapphires day out"
It was another beautiful day in the land of Equestria. Especially for our hero Leo who is just now waking up. "Man, that was the best sleep ever. The blanket that was on me was extremely warm. It was nice." After that, he hears Amelia say.
"Well, the warm blankets part has probably something to do with the two baby dragons that decided to sleep by your side." She said while having a smile. Leo then looks around himself and sure enough, Toothless and Sapphire are sleeping in his bed. His shuffling around then wakes them up.
"Good morning there little ones when did you get in here?"
"Around midnight they crawled into your bed and decided to sleep here." Leo decided not to answer Bill immediately. After that, both of the dragons tried to talk. but the only thing that came out were cute little roars.
"Man you two are too cute. Why don't you two go ahead and follow Amelia so that I can get dressed how does that sound?" After that, the two little dragons jumped off and followed their mother to the kitchen area. When they were out of Leos hearing range he said. "How do you know when they came in here we were training all night in the dreamscape?"
"Well I took a little peek outside to see what time it was and sure enough those two walked in and got into your bed and fell right asleep." While he was talking Leo got and dressed in his usual attire.
"Okay then now with that explained let's get something to eat." After that, he took his school bag and went to the kitchen. Once there he saw the whole gang together sitting at the table and enjoying their respective breakfasts. He drops off his backpack at the door and sits down at the table. "Good morning guys how is everybody doing?"
"Well besides from that little heart attack this morning when we didn't find Toothless and Sapphire. We are actually just peachy." Said Axel. While he was talking Leo cooked his cockatrice breakfast.
"That sounds like it was fun. So what are you guys planning on doing today?" Then Zyon decided to speak up.
"Well we are planning on checking our little berry spot if anything has grown so that we can make some more fruit-based desserts, but other than that we are just going to laze about and do nothing I guess." When he finished Leo was already half done with his cockatrice. Then Bill decided to speak up.
"And what are we going to be doing?" Leo decided to ignore him that time and just concentrated on his meal.
"Well, I hope you find something to do. As for me, I have a busy day ahead of me." Then Axel decided to speak up.
"What you have a date with one of your mat-" The rest of the statement was cut off by a bone hitting him in the face. "Ouch hey, what was that for?" Leo only continued to eat, but this time with a smirk on his face. While this was going on Sapphire was looking for a place to take a nap. After some searching, she found her place inside Leos backpack. After everyone finally finished their food Zyon said.
"Okay, then Leo today I'm flying you to school. So get your bag and let's go go go." After that, he was already outside. Since Leo didn't want him to wait he quickly went to his backpack, closed it without checking inside and ran out of the cave, while Sapphire was still peacefully asleep.
***
The ride to the school was the same as last time, with the same landing spot. After they did land Zyon said. "Now you better behave yourself and if you do go on a date with one of your mates then make sure that you sing for her. That's how I got your mother to fall in love with me." After that Leo was completely red and then he lightly punched him.
"Shut up dad and go check on your berries or something." Then Zyon chuckled.
"Okay, then Leo. Goodbye."
"Goodbye." After Leo said that Zyon launched himself into the air and flew off. "Now to go and find the girls." With that said he started walking to the front of the school. Once he got there he, of course, finds all of the girls standing there. With his target in sight, he starts to walk towards them. Half way there he is spotted by Applejack, who decides to greet him.
"Howdy there Leo." After she says that all of the girls turn towards me and give their own greetings.
"Hello, there girls. How's it going?" After that Rarity spoke up.
"Oh quite good we are just cross referencing our timetables. What about you what are you doing today?" She asked Leo while raising an eyebrow.
"Nothing major I just need to get all of this paperwork." He said while pointing to the folder in his hand. "And after that, I think I saw that I have a cooking class." After he said that Pinkie jumped in front of him and started to talk.
"Oh that is super then that means we can be cooking buddies. So are you going to be my cooking buddy? are ya? are ya?" After that Bill said.
"Dragon boy say something quickly or else she is going to start getting fisical and I don't mean she is going to give you a hug" After that Leo said.
"Since I don't want to die today I'm going to say yes and hope that that pleases you." After that, she chuckled and said.
"Silly billy you're not going to die, but I am happy that we are going to be working together. Well, then let's get you to the principal's office and then we can go to our class see you girls later." With that, she grabbed onto Leo and started dragging him off towards the school.
"Well let's hope he and his sanity survives." Said Rainbow Dash with the rest of the girls nodding in agreement.
***
After about two minutes of Pinkie dragging Leo around, he finally decided to speak. "Um Pinkie I know you're excited and everything but I do know I have legs don't you?" After that, she stopped and let him go.
"Oh sorry about that. I guess I got too excited." She said while offering him a sheepish smile.
"It's okay Pinkie lets just get to the principal's office so that I can give this to Celestia."
"Okie Dokie Loki." And after that Leo started walking towards the aforementioned office while Pinkie was jumping alongside him. After about a minute they were in front of the principal's office. With nothing else to do, he went to the and knocked. Then he heard the principal say.
"Come in." With the prompt given he opened the door and stepped inside.
"Good morning principal Celestia it's me, Leo, I came here to give you the finished paperwork." He said while placing the folder on the table.
"Ah thank you, Leo. Now before you leave I have something to tell you. The day after tomorrow we are having something called the friendship games so tomorrow I'm going to have every student pitch in to decorate and prepare the school so that we are ready for crystal prep. So I'm asking you, can you help out tomorrow by preparing some of the courses that we are going to need?" Leo then smiled.
"Sure I can. Where do I need to be to go to start?"
"Thank you, Leo. You can come to the gym there is where you are going to find me and the other students that are going to be helping as well. Now I better not keep you here any longer. Run along to class now." With that said he made his way towards the door and left the office. Right as he closed the door he felt something moving in his backpack.
"What the." He didn't get the chance to finish that statement because he was stopped by Pinkie.
"So are you ready to have the most awesomest time ever?" She asked with a big smile.
"Sure I just need to quickly go to the toilet. I'll be right back." With that said he found the nearest toilet and went inside. After that pinkie stomach started to grumble.
"Speaking of the toilet." With that said she also made for the toilet. When Leo got into the stall he checked around to see if anyone was there. After that, he took off his backpack placed it on the sinks and opened it when he did a blue night furies head popped out cutely roared at him.
"Sapphire what are you doing here? Wait, better question how did I not notice that my bag was heavier? Bill are you there I need your help with something?" Sapphire then noticed the mirror behind her and her reflection inside. Being the curious little dragon that she was she touched the mirror.
"Yeah I'm here what's the... Is that Sapphire playing with her reflection?"
"Yes she is, but she is not supposed to be here. Do you have a spell that can send her back?" Asked Leo in a slightly begging tone.
"Sorry no can do dragon boy. My powers are only limited to the inside of your mind and you don't know how to correctly teleport objects yet so you're on your own on this one. The best thong that I suggest you doing is that you keep her hidden and wait for one of the other dragons to arrive and pick her up."
"Man, that's real helpful Bill. Okay, then Sapphire lets..." After that, he noticed that Sapphire wasn't in her bag, but what he did notice is the swinging door that led to the halls. After that, his eyes widened and said "Oh crap." Then he quickly took his backpack and ran outside and who does he meet there? Pinkie.
"Hey there Leo. Let's go to class before we're late." Then she grabbed him by his arm and started to drag him towards their first class. Right before they went around the corner he saw Sapphire jump down from the lockers and take off in the opposite direction.
***
After three minutes of them walking they entered a cooking class. "Okay, then Leo let's take a seat and wait for the teacher to arrive." Leo simply nodded and followed he was currently very worried. After that, he heard Bill.
"Hey dragon boy you seem to be very worried about Sapphire. How about I follow her and keep you up to date on what she's doing."
"If you can that would be awesome." After that, a holographic bill appeared in front of him after that he split himself in half and then he sent one of his halves out of the class.
"Um, Leo who are you talking too?" Asked Pinkie with a raised eyebrow.
"Oh, I'm just talking to myself. It's something that I do from time to time. You'll get used to it."
"Oh okay then."
"Smooth move Dragon boy. Smooth move. I'm still searching for her if you're wondering where she is." After that the door opened to reveal the teacher.
"Good morning class as you all know my name's Cheerilee and I'm going to be your teacher for today. Today we are going to be preparing brownies. So open your books to page seventy-three and get to cooking." She said. With that pinkie opened her book to the mentioned page and started to gather the ingredients while I went and grabbed all the cooking utensils that we are going to need. After he got everything he turned to Bill.
"Still nothing, but I'm getting close to her I can feel it."
"Okay, then Leo you start cutting the chocolate while I prepare the dough." With that Pinkie set a bar of chocolate in front of Leo while she went to her own devices.
"Alrighty then." With that done he took a kitchen hand and started on the cutting. "So Pinkie do you bake often?"
"Oh yes, I bake almost every day. It comes with working at a bakery."
"What's the bakery called?" Asked Leo while he finished off the chocolate.
"It's called Sugar cube corner. Can you pass me the chocolate and can you start up the oven?" I passed her the cut up chocolate and after that, I went to set the oven.
"Found her. She is currently playing in the indoor gym. Man, she' adorable playing with a ball. I'll inform you when she moves." After that Pinkie said.
"Okay, then could you prepare the baking pan?" Leo simply nodded and went and did it. When he finished he asked.
"Hey, pinkie do you think we are going to get in trouble if we add some peanuts or m and m's into the brownies to give it a little bit of a crunch wen you bite into it?"
"Oh, that's a great idea." After that, she reached into her hair and pulled out two bags and placed them on the counter. Leo, of course, looked dumbfounded.
"How did you? You know what don't answer. Do I need to do anything else?" After that, she handed him the bowl that she was mixing.
"Just take the dough and spread it out evenly on the entire pan after that we'll put it into the oven for ten minutes." Leo did as he was asked and placed the pan into the oven.
"Awww now she's swinging on a rope. How cute." After those ten minutes they took the brownie out sprinkled with the peanuts and m and m's, then they placed it back into the oven and left it to finish baking. After another fifteen minutes, of them basically cleaning up and talking with each other the teacher said.
"Okay students take out your creations and show them off for your grade." After that we took our brownies out of the oven and placed it on the counter after that we waited for her. When she did she asked. "Um, why are there peanuts inside these brownies?"
"Well, I suggested to add them so that it would a little bit of a crunch to them. Was that wrong of us to do?"
"No it wasn't, but the assignment was to follow the recipe I'll give you a B+ for this. Next time make sure to follow the recipe." Leo and Pinkie were saddened to hear that, but in the end, it was going to be eaten anyway and make some people happy. After that, we heard the bell. "Okay class see you next week." After that Leo quickly picked up his bag and ran outside.
"Okay, Bill where's she now?"
"She is currently playing in the chemistry lab. Hurry it looks like there's going to be a class there."
"Got it. Running there now." Said Leo, while sprinting towards the chemistry lab. When I got there I opened the door and sure enough Sapphire was playing with a stick. "Okay, Sapphire come to your uncle Leo and let's get out of here." But instead of her stopping there she thought that they are playing a game. So she ran full speed in between his legs and ran out the door. "Good damn it. Bill follow her. We can't lose her." One of Bills halves saluted and flew after her. Then Leo sighed and ran after her. "It's gonna be a long day." While this was going on Sunset was walking down a corridor when suddenly she saw Sapphire running past her.
"What the. Was that a dragon?" After that, she looked down the corridor and sure enough there running in a circle was Sapphire. After Sapphire noticed that she was watched she started to run away. "No, wait!" After that, she started to run after her. The chase continued until Sapphire snuck into the school boutique. Sunset barged in startling Rarity.
"Darling where's the fire? Why do you look so scared?" She asked in a worried voice.
"You probably won't believe me when I say this, but I saw a dragon come into this room." Said Sunset while looking around for the dragon.
"Really a dragon? Well, I guess I can't be too surprised with all the magical things that happen around here. Let me help you." After that, they started to search the entire room. After some time of searching, they gave up.
"Where's that little bugger?" After that one of the mannequins that were placed in the room fell over and after that one of the dresses bolted for the door and ran out of the boutique. "Follow that dress." Said Sunset. After that, they both ran after it. While all of this was going on Amelia was flying towards the school.
"Okay Amelia calm down and follow your instincts like you did to find them this morning and my instincts are telling me that Sapphire is currently at the school and if she is I hope Leo is watching over her. Now step on it." With that said she started flying at full speed. At the school, Leo was running down hallways to hopefully find Sapphire before somebody else does.
"Okay dragon boy are you ready to grab her because they are running down this corridor any minute. Get your magic ready." With that Leo concentrated on his magic spreading it out over his whole body. After that, he turned invisible.
"Okay, I'm ready."
"Alright then get ready to grab her in three. Two. One. Now!" When he said that Leo quickly grabbed Sapphire and turned her invisible as well. After that Sunset and Rarity ran past none the wiser to where they were hiding. Bill then reassembled himself and returned into Leos mind. "Now if you excuse me I'm going to take a nap. I am exhausted. See you later dragon boy." With that Bill fell asleep and speaking off sleeping. Sapphire also fell asleep in Leos' arms.
"Okay, you troublemaker lets get you into my bag and then we can wait for your mother to pick you up." With that said he placed her into his bag, closed it turned visible and went off to his next class.
***
After the last class, Leo went to the cafeteria to quickly get himself and Sapphire something to eat. Once he got everything that they needed to eat, he sat down at an empty table and started to eat, while also secretly feeding Sapphire. After a couple of minutes, Rarity appeared looking completely exhausted. "What happened to you?" I asked while raising an eyebrow.
"Oh, I and Sunset were just chasing a dragon around the entire school." Said Rarity.
"Uhm you do know that dragons aren't real right?" I asked.
"Well before a couple months ago I also thought that magic wasn't real but after that whole thing with Sunset turning power hungry magic monster I believe." That was definitely interesting to Leo so he decided to find out more.
"What was that with Sunset and turning into a magic monster?"
"Oh, she didn't tell you yet. Well, then I'm going to let her explain when she's comfortable with letting you know until then you better not bring it up." She said then she got up and said. "Now if you excuse me I need to get home and clean my hair. See you tomorrow." With that, she left Leo alone.
"Well, that's going to be on my mind for the rest of eternity." After that, he heard the signal for his pickup. Then he turned to Sapphire and said. "Well, Sapphire looks like we have to go home now." After that, he gave her another slice of apple and then he left the cafeteria and started walking towards the hiding place where they pick him up.
***
Once he got to the place where they drop him off he found Amelia there. "Please tell me that Sapphire's with you." She said in a hopeful tone. Leo just smiled, got his backpack and opened it. After he did that Sapphire popped her head out of it and gave off a cute roar. "Oh thank the elder dragon. Now let's get you home." With that said Leo put his backpack on and climbed on Amelia. After that, they took off. On the ground, two people noticed a human riding on a dragon. One of them was Sunset and the other one was Rainbow dash. When they saw that they both said.
"What in the world was that?"
Author's Note
Welp here's another chapter I hope you enjoyed it.
This time we are starting at the Canterlot high school library where Leos friends are telling him a few things about Crystal prep. "So girls what do I need to know?" Asked Leo. After that Rainbow Dash said.
"Nothing too major. The only thing that you need to know is that Crystal prep beats us at everything." She said while flipping through a book that she found on a shelf. All of the pictures were basically the same. The Crystal prep students are standing on the steps while holding some sort of sports equipment that is connected to the sport that they were competing against while the students of Canterlot high stand beside them on the ground looking sad. After some time Leo took the book and flipped through it.
"Man when you say everything you mean everything, but this year is going to be different because Canterlot high's going to win right." He said. After that Rainbow said.
"You bet your ass that we are. Because I'm going to be giving the motivational speech that the entire school needs." After that Leo landed on a very peculiar picture. Under it was written the disaster of the fall formal festival Sunset Shimmer and on top of those words was a picture of a red demon with black and teal eyes wearing a tiara in her fiery hair.
"Um Sunset could you explain something to me you don't have to if it's a touchy subject, but I really want to know about this." Then he turned the book around and showed her the picture. When Sunset saw it her face immediately turned into fear.
"Um, that is um is." After a few seconds of that, she simply sighed and started to explain. "That's me when I tried to take over the school by using a magic tiara that I found on the other side of a portal and after I put it on the magic turned me into that and now whenever we play our instruments we quote on quote pony up." After that Leo just looked dumbfounded. Then he closed the book and asked.
"So there is magic at this school and you six can do something that is called 'pony up'?" They all nodded. But Sunset still looked like she was about to get hit. Leo just sighed and said. "That was probably a tough secret to tell me Sunset, so I'm going to tell you one of mine." After that she said.
"No Leo you don't have to." He simply raised his hand and said.
"I insist I don't like to see you all mopey and stuff so I'm going to tell you one of my secrets. Now get ready because it's a doozy." After he said that everybody got closer to him. "I have magic." He said in a slightly quieter tone and after he did everyone looked at him like was crazy.
"Leo don't joke with me how can you have magic if you weren't here when that big explosion happened." Said Sunset.
"Look I don't know how I got it, but I do know that I have it and that I had it for an entire year."
"Okay then prove it. What instrument do you play?" Said Rainbow and when she did Leo just looked at her as if she was stupid.
"Why do I need an instrument to use my magic?" Asked Leo while raising an eyebrow. "Do you think it would be easier to cast." He asked more to himself than anyone else.
"Yes, but those are like training wheels we are already above that level." Said Bill.
"Um because that is how magic works around here." Said rainbow. After that Leo got a smirk and started to concentrate on the magic inside of him and enveloped her in a red aura and then he raised her into the air. After Rainbow finally registered that she was flying she started to flail around. "Hey what's the big idea?" After that Leo raised his hand to show that it was also encased in his red aura and after that, he slowly lowered her down to the ground. After that, he dispelled his magic and said.
"And that is what you call magic, but I still want to see this pony up that you guys have if I can." He said with a smirk on his face while everyone else excluding Rainbow Dash looked dumbfounded. "You better close your mouths before you start catching flies." That snapped them out and then Sunset asked.
"Why didn't you tell us this sooner?"
"Well at the time I didn't know that this school already knew about magic and let's just say for a moment that a guy would start telling people that he had magic. At first, he would be labelled a crazy person and after that when he proved them wrong a freak. So you can kinda see why I didn't tell you sooner I hope that you can forgive for that." After that explanation sunk in Sunset said.
"Is that the reason you moved to this school?" She asked.
"That was one reason, but not the main one. The main one was the food in the cafeteria. It's at least one thousand times better than at any other school around here. It also has nicer students and nicer teachers." He said with a big smile on his face. After that Sunset lightly punched him and said.
"I'm trying to get a serious conversation and you just brush it off. It's good to know that you didn't change that much Leo."
"Yeah, I guess that's true." He said. After that, there was a voice coming from the intercom system. It was Celestia's and it said.
"Every student come to the indoor gym so that we can give the final announcement regarding the friendship games. That will be all."
"Well, guys lets go you don't want to miss my pep talk for the entire school." Said Rainbow. With that everyone got up and made their way towards the gym.
***
Once at the gym they quickly took their seats at the tribune in the back and waited for the principal to begin her speech after a minute she finally got on stage with vice principal Luna following behind. After Celestia got to the mic she started to talk. " As I am sure you all know, tomorrow, Canterlot High School will be hosting our fellow students from Crystal Prep Academy as we join together in the spirit of excellence, sportsmanship, and fidelity to compete in the Friendship Games." After that, every student cheered in an unenthused way. Except for Leo who decided to cheer out loud how it was supposed to be done. After that, every one looked at him.
"What?" After that Celestia continued.
"Since the games only happen every four years, I'm sure you're all curious what goes on." After that a student said.
"You mean other than us losing?!" Celestia just continued.
"And that is exactly why I've asked Rainbow Dash to come up and give you all a little, um... context." After that Rainbow Dash got on stage and took the microphone from the principal.
"Thank you, Principal Celestia. I know a lot of you might think there's no way we can beat a fancy school like Crystal Prep at anything." She said. After that Pinkie decided to speak up.
"Unless it's a "losing to Crystal Prep" competition! 'Cause we're really good at that!" After that rainbow dash groaned and after that she said. After that, some music started to play and then she started to sing.
After she finished the song finished Leo and all of his friends gathered backstage to congratulate Rainbow and to ask questions. "Wow so that is what you girls call pony up, well it's definitely interesting, to say the least." After that Sunset asked.
"Yeah it was cool, but why did it happen? it usually only happens when we play our instruments." After that principal, Luna walked up to them and said.
"Well, it would be nice if you girls could get a handle on it. We'd like to keep magic as far away from the Friendship Games as possible. We don't want to be accused of cheating." After that Rarity said.
"We don't need magic to defeat those hoity-toity Crystal Preppers." Everyone agreed and after that Luna said.
"Still, the Friendship Games are serious business. We don't want any surprises. Especially the kind that could cause us to forfeit. Sunset Shimmer, you came here from a world of magic. Perhaps you can get to the bottom of our magical development." Then Sunset said.
"I'll do my best." After that Luna left and went to her office and then Rainbow asked.
"Okay. Anybody have any guesses what the events are gonna be?" After that pinkie asked.
"Pie eating? Cake eating?" She said while pulling the aforementioned sweets out of her hair. Then she gasped and smashed them together. "Pie-cake eating?!" After that Applejack wiped the cake of her face and said.
"They won't even let us see what they're doin' to the field. You think they'd at least tell competitors what they're competing in." After that Leo said.
"Well whatever it is I'm sure you are going to beat Crystal prep at them, now if you excuse me I need to go to and Meet principal Celestia because I volunteered to help out in the preparations for the welcome party for them so I guess I'll see you later." With that said, Leo left the group and went to find the principal. After a couple minutes of searching, he finally found her talking to a couple of students. "Hello, principal Celestia I'm here what do you need me to do?" Celestia then turned to him and said.
"Ah hello, Leo it's nice to see you here. As for what you can do you and Flash Sentry can go back into storage and bring up a couple of tables so that we can serve some refreshments." Then she turned to a light orange skinned boy with a spiky blue hair.
"Flash Sentry come over here I Have something for you to do." With that, the now named Flash Sentry came over and asked.
"Yes, principal what do you need me for?" The principal smiled and said.
"You and Leo over here are going down into storage and are picking up a couple of tables and chairs. Now I'll leave you to it." With that Celestia walked off and Leo and Flash were left alone.
"Hey, you are that one guy that was all super excited about the friendship games?" Asked Flash. After that Leo smirked.
"And aren't you the guy who was all pessimistic about losing even though you know we are going to win this year." After that Flash also smiled.
"Good one. Now let's go and get those tables and chairs." He said while pointing behind himself.
"Yeah, lets go." With that said they both made their way down into storage to get the tables. Once they brought everything up they set it up and placed them around the room. After some time of them setting things up Flash asked Leo.
"So Leo how long have you been going to this school. I've newer seen you around here."
"Yeah I've been a little busy with my studies and when I'm not in class I'm usually walking around the campus as for how long I've been here. I've been here for four days." Answered Leo while setting up a chair.
"So why are you so sure that we are going to win this time? We have never won before so why?" Asked Flash.
"Let's say that I have this gut feeling about that and it never failed me before so I trust it."
"Well, I just don't see ourselves winning that's all." Said Flash. After that Leo smiled.
"Do you want to make a bet?" Flash then turned to him and smiled.
"What are the stakes?" He asked.
"Oh this is going to be good. Make him run around the entire campus only in his underwear." Said Bill.
"Oh, that's good but no. If I win you are going to go and dump a bucket of ice cold water on yourself and if you win hen I'm going to do it. So what do you say do we have a deal?" Said Leo, while extending out his head. Then Flash put his hand into Leos and said.
"Deal." After that, a subtle red glow appeared in their hands and then Flash said. "Get ready to lose." Leo only smiled and said.
"I would love to see you try." After that principal, Celestia called everyone over.
"Okay then everyone you did a great job now you can go and enjoy the rest of your day." With that said everyone started to leave, but before Leo left he was stopped by Flash.
"Hey, Leo lets meet up sometime okay." Leo nodded and then he left to go to the library.
***
On his way towards the library, he was stopped by Rarity. "Oh hello, Leo. Are you by any chance free at this moment?"
"Yes. Why?"
"Oh good then come with me I need your opinion on something." After that, she grabbed him by his arm and dragged him off towards her boutique.
"But I wanted to go on a computer." Whined Leo.
"You can do that later now come along." After that, they left the school and went towards her boutique while Leos grumbling the entire way. When they finally reached her boutique Rarity quickly placed Leo on a podium and started to measure him.
"Um, Rarity what are you doing?" He asked.
"Oh, I'm just taking your measurements. I do this for any of my friends so that I can make some clothes for them from time to time. Could you stretch out your arms to the sides?" Leo did as he was asked and then he said.
"Rarity you do know that I didn't ask for any clothes right?"
"Yeah I know but I always do at least one outfit for each friend and I'm not taking no for an answer. Now go and sit down over there and I'm going to have your outfit done in twenty minutes in that time you can parose my other creations. Oh yeah, and would you be against wearing a fedora?" Asked Rarity while she walked over to her sewing machine.
"Um no, I have nothing against that."
"Okay, then you sit down and wait for me to finish up." With that said she went to her sewing machine and started on his new attire. Leo then went to the boutique and checked every piece of clothing that was on display. When he finally checked out everything Rarity called him. "Okay, then darling here are your new attires." When Leo looked her way he found her in her ponied up form holding four outfits in her hands.
"Um Rarity why are you in your ponied up form and why did you make multiple outfits for me?" After that Rarity took a look at herself and said.
"Oh, I guess I did pony up. Well, that's not the main point. What do you think of your new outfits?" After that, he took the outfits in his magic and levitated them around himself. They weren't anything too special they basically just redoes of his current outfit. The first one was a pair of black pants with an orange T-shirt with a fire motive on it and a black leather jacket with a dragon skull on the back. The second one was a pair of white pants with a plain black T-shirt and a white jacket. The third one was a pair of jeans with a blue shirt with a red dragon claw on it and a black leather jacket with a little bit of a fire pattern crawling up his sleeves and the last one was a pair of black jeans with two red lines going down the sides another red T-shirt and another black jacket with the same motive as the jeans. The final piece of clothing that he floated in front of him was a completely black fedora which he put on right away.
"So what do you think?" Asked Rarity.
"I don't know what to say Rarity these are awesome. I love them, but I can't take them for free." Said Leo, while floating all of the new clothes on a hanger nearby.
"Oh, pish posh darling you can take them." Then Leo raised his hand and said.
"I insist at least let me help you out at the store if nothing else." After that Rarity said.
"Okay, I'll let you help out at the store. I'm going to be showing off a couple of dresses and you are going to rate them." That seemed reasonable so he agreed. After that Rarity went to the back of the store and with her she brought four full hangers of dresses. After that, he started to regret his decision.
"This is going to be a long day." With that said he got himself comfortable and prepared to score all of the dresses.
***
After about two and a half hours Leo left the boutique with a bag full of clothes, a new fedora and little bit of a headache and started walking towards the school. On the way there he was talking to Bill. "Bill how many clothes did you count?"
"I counted at least one hundred and fifty-seven. Man, this headache is going to kill me in here."
"What is happening in there?" Asked Leo while walking down the sidewalk.
"Well it looks like hell. Literally, it looks like hell. Fire and brimstone and everything. Does that answers your question?"
"Yeah, it does." After he said that he bumped into someone and fell to the ground after that he heard a quiet voice say.
"Oh excuse me, sir, I wasn't paying attention where I was going." Leo recognised that voice immediately.
"Fluttershy?"
"Oh hello there Leo what are you doing here?" Asked Fluttershy while picking up some papers. Leo started to help her out and then he answered.
"I was just leaving Rarities boutique and you better get ready to model a couple of dresses tomorrow. So what are you doing here?" Asked Leo while handing her the papers that he collected.
"Oh I'm just trying to find some volunteers to work at the animal shelter, but I wasn't that successful." She said in a saddened tone. Leos heart then promptly exploded. He hated seeing his friends sad so he decided to cheer her up.
"Hey, Fluttershy." She raised her head. "Can I join you for today. I may not look like it but I'm actually quite the animal lover. So can I help." After that, she got the biggest smile and said.
"Really you really want to help." Leo then nodded and after that, he was dragged off to the animal shelter.
***
Once they got to the animal shelter Leo took a look around. To the left of the door, there was a desk where there was allot of paperwork on it. The rest of the space was filled with all kinds of different chew toys, sleeping baskets and other things that were meant for animals. After he finished his observation Fluttershy started to the animals. "Hello, there little ones. Today we are having a guest with us his name is Leo and he is going to be helping me today. Now everyone say high to Leo." With that, all the animals made their sounds to say hello.
"Well aren't you the friendliest little guys." He said while petting a dog that stepped up to him. Then he turned to Fluttershy and asked. "So what's first on the list of things to do?"
"First we are going to feed them, then we are going to clean them and then w are going to get them ready for bed." She said. After that, he placed his bag and fedora on the counter and then he said.
"Okay then let's get started." With that said they started on feeding the animals. After that, they started on the bathing. While they were doing that Fluttershy asked.
"So Leo do you have a pet?" She asked while cleaning a dog.
"Well I don't have a pet but I do have two baby cousins." He answered while drying off a kitten.
"Oh, are they allot of trouble?" Leo only chuckled and then he answered.
"You have no idea. One of them once tried to cook a fish and almost burned the entire house once." Fluttershy was shocked to hear that. "Don't worry nobody got hurt and nothing was burned. Well except for the fish." After that, she calmed down.
"Are you planning on adopting a pet?"
"No sadly I can't my parents are allergic so I kinda can't bring home any animals." Lied Leo.
"Smooth dragon boy smooth." Said Bill. After that Fluttershy passed the dog over to Leo and he started on drying him off.
"Well, that's the last one. I'm going to go and get started on getting them to sleep." With that, she left and went to do that. Leo then quickly finished off. After five minutes of drying, he let the dog go and went to see what Fluttershy was doing. She was currently tending to the hamsters. "Okay, then little ones lets go to sleep so that we can wake up full of energy in the morning." After she said that Leo heard Axels signal.
"Um Fluttershy I would love to stay and finish up, but my uncle is calling me." He said in a saddened tone of voice.
"Oh, it's okay Leo. You were a big help. I can finish off on my own." Leo then smiled and said.
"Thanks, Flutters. I'll see you tomorrow at school." He said while he picked up his hat and bag of clothes.
"See you tomorrow." With that said he left the store and started walking towards where he heard the signal. His search ended when he went into an alleyway and sure enough, there is where he found Axel waiting for him with a smug grin on his face.
"What?" After that Axel said.
"Looks like someone had fun on their date." After that Leo started to blush.
"For your information that wasn't a date. I was only helping her out at the animal shelter. Now shall we go before I have to punch you again." Axel only continued to smirk after that he lowered himself so that Leo could climb on.
"Whatever you say." When Leo got on, Axel spread his wings and they flew off towards the cove.
***
When they landed he jumped off of Axel and when he did Amelia walked over to them and said. "Ah hello there Leo. Sorry if I'm springing this on you, but could you dragon sit Sapphire and Toothless. I want to visit my parents today and it would be really super. I'll even pay you."
"Why don't you ask Zyon or Midnight to do it?" After that, she looked at him with a flat stare.
"They went out hunting and they are going to be returning at around sunset. So can I count on you?" Leo then sighed and nodded.
"Okay, then I'm going to do it." After that Amelia smiled and reached behind her and handed him the two little dragons.
"Okay, we'll be back at around sunset. Now let's go, Axel." With that they both took to the skies and Leo was left alone with the two dragons.
"Okay then you two let's go to my cave and drop off my new clothes and after that, we are going to play." They both let out small roars and with that as his prompt, he started to walk towards his cave. When he dropped off his things in his room he got a ball and started to play with the two little dragons. After about ten minutes of playing Leo heard their stomachs growl. After that, they went up to him and started to beg for some food. "Yeah I'm going I'm going, just stop with the puppy dog eyes." With that, he quickly went to the back and got two fish. He cooked them and then he gave them to the dragons after they finished their food they yawned and started to fall asleep. "It looks like you two are tired now. Okay then let's get you to sleep." With that, he picked them up and went to the couch that he had in the living room and sat down in it. After about half an hour Leo also started to become sleepy and after a short battle the day's events finally caught up to him and he fell asleep.
Author's Note
Here is another chapter and as always if you enjoyed like comment and share this with your friends. With that said I'll see you all in the next chapter.
Chapter 5 "the friendship games"
It was another calm and beautiful day in Equestria and Leo is just now waking up to the sound of someone talking and laughing. "Yeah. I saw him hang out with at least six of them. When do you think he is going to introduce us?" Said a whispering Axel. After that Leo fully woke up and asked.
"Um guys what are you talking about?" After that Axel emidiately stopped talking about that and said.
"Oh nothing important Leo." After that Bill said.
"He was telling your parents about you having a heard." After that Leo went through two fazes. The first one was embarrassment. His cheeks turned a bright red and he started to hide behind the couch. After that the second faze followed. Anger. When it did he launched himself at Axel and stated to wrestle him. After a couple of minutes of them fighting. Leo twisted one of Axels claws so that it was behind his back. When he did that Axel asked.
"Hey what was that for?"
"Your lying now tell me what you told my parents or I'm not letting you go. Or do you want me to embarrass you even more in front of your children." That point was then emphasized by the two babies laughing and giggling like mad.
"Okay. Okay. I give. I was telling your parents about you having a heard now could you please let go of my claw. It's kinda getting sore." Whined out Alex. After he said that Leo let go of his claw and jumped off of him. Then Zyon stepped forward and said.
"Okay now that you finished that how about we go and eat our breakfast. It's going to get cold soon and its your favorite Leo." After that Leo smelled the air and sure enough the smell of eggs was in it. After that he bolted for the table and patiently waited for all of his family to sit down with him. After they did, midnight placed an egg, some hash browns and some freshly squeezed orange juice in front of each off them including herself and said.
"Alright everybody dig in." And with that they started eating.
***
After everybody finished breakfast everyone went outside except for Axel and Leo. Leo wasn't to pleased with him at the moment. "What do you want?" Alex flinched back a little by the harshness in his tone, but continued with what he wanted to say.
"Look Leo I'm sorry about earlier. I didn't mean to tell them, I just slipped really and when I did they wouldn't stop pressuring me. Can we please put this behind us and be friends again." He said while holding out a claw. Leo thought about and after a solid minute he put his hand into his claw and said.
"Okay I'll give you one more chance, but if you botch it, you are not getting another one." He said while also pointing at him.
"I wont let you down." With that they both made their way out of the cave and got outside. When they did Amelia stepped up to Axel and handed him the babies.
"You watch over them while I go and fly Leo to school and for the love of the elder dragon keep them away from the gems, or we wont have any for later." Axel simply saluted and walked of to his cave with the babies waving at Leo and Amelia from his back. "Well then Leo are you ready to go?" Leo thought about it and then he said.
"Just let me change out of these clothes and get on a fresh pair, because these ones are starting to reek." After that he ran inside and put on the other blue jeans and red T-shirt with the flaming jacket and fedora on. When he finished he ran back outside and said. "Okay I'm ready. Let's go." After that he climbed onto Amelia and they were off flying towards the school.
***
On the way there nothing interesting happened so they quickly got to the school and landed. When they did Leo jumped off and said. "Thanks for the ride Amelia."
"No problem Leo now make sure that you have fun and to thank that girl for giving you that nice outfit. See ya later." After that Amelia flew off and Leo then made his way to in front of the school. When he did who should he find, but his only male friend Flash. Since he didn't have anything to do he walked up to him and said.
"Hello there Flash. Are you ready to lose?"
"Not likely, but it's nice to see you as well Leo. How are you today?" He said with a grin.
"Oh it couldn't be better, but that's besides the point. So do you have anything planed or do you just laze around and wait for the first class to begin?" Asked Leo with a raised eyebrow.
"Nah I'm not lazing around I'm waiting for my other friends to arrive so that we can go practice a bit before school starts." After that he snapped his fingers and said. "You should totally join us."
"No I don't even now how to play any instruments. Well at least not any that would be connected to your type of music." Said Leo while shaking his head.
"Oh that doesn't matter any instrument you play we can back up and besides if it's something of the wall then it could at least give us some inspiration for next years talent show. So which instrument do you play?" Said Flash and after he did Leo sighed.
"I'm not getting out of this am I?" Flash only shook his head in denial. "Fine I may have dabbled in playing the violin from time to time. So am I still in?"
"After we see how good you are then yeah. Now we just wait for my band buddies to arrive." After that he saw someone behind Leo and said. "Speaking of friends here they are." After that Leo turned around and saw two people walking up to them. The first one was bit had a little bit more muscle on his bones that he also had a pale yellow skin colour and a blueish-green hair colour.
The other one was a bit more to flashes built, maybe a little shorter he had a light purple skin colour and black hair with two streaks of white going through it he also had blue sunglasses and a little bit of a mustache.
After they walked up to them Flash introduced them "Hello guys this is Leo the newest member of our band. Leo these are Brawly Beats." He said while pointing to the big guy.
"Sup Leo." He extended his hand and then Leo shook it. After that Flash said.
"And that is Ringo." Ringo simply nodded in approval and also extended his hand to shake. Leo of course shook it and said.
"Well it's nice to meet you both and I hope that we can work well together." After that Brawly beats said.
"Of course we are, but first you need to pass our test. Now lets go to our music room so that we can properly initiate you into our band. Ain't that right Ringo." Ringo then simply nodded and pointed behind himself after that he started walking towards the school. On the way there Leo leaned over to flash and asked.
"Is he usually this quiet or is that just me?" Flash then answered.
"Nah he just prefers to be quiet. That's all. If he needs to speak he speaks, but if it's not required then he just stays quiet. Does that answer your question?" Leo simply nodded and continued to follow them to the music room. When they finally arrived Brawly said.
"Okay then Leo pick up your instrument and we can get started." After that Leo went around the room to find himself a violin. When he did he picked it up and brought it to the guys. "A violin no wonder Flash wants you to join hey Ringo why don't you get on the piano and then you can play When can I see you again. Ringo simply nodded and walked over to the Piano and started to play.
After the intro was done Leo quickly got into the bit and started to play along. After the song finished Flash said. "That was very good. Now lets try something a little bit more difficult. Brawly go pick up a cello for me would you?" Brawly simply nodded and went to grab it. After he returned and gave it to Flash he went behind the drums. "Okay then guys let's play Wake me up. Do you know that song Leo?"
"Do I know it of course I do it was actually one of the first songs that I ever learned to play, but I might be a little rusty. I hope you can forgive me for that." He answered.
"Of course now let's get started." With that said Brawly started up the beat and we started into the next song.
After about a minute into the song Leo started to glow and change. First he sprung horns from his head after that his skin started to become cowered with scales that were the same colour as his skin. After that he sprouted two black dragon wings and a pair of staffs appeared on his back one a blue colour and the other grey. After that he also sprouted a black and grey lizard tail.
Leo didn't notice these changes and neither did Flash, Brawly and Ringo. After the song finally finished they all noticed it and started staring at Leo. When Leo noticed this he asked. "What do I have something on my face?" Then Ringo decided to speak.
"Dude you grew horns, wings, a tail and are cowered in scales. How are you able to do that?" After Ringo said that Leo started checking himself out. After he finished he asked.
"How did this happen?" He asked to seemingly nobody and then Bill decided to speak up.
"It was you playing the song. It ignited a fire inside of you and that fire then spread to your magic making you grow these things. I think I know how to open and close this power of yours. Just give me a second, in the mean time explain this to your new buddies." Leo simply nodded and then explained.
"Well you were bound to find this out sooner or later. I can use magic. I guess the magic around this school also affects me like it does did to Rainbow dash at that gym." After that Flash stepped up and gave him his hand. When Leo shook it he said.
"Welcome to the team Leo. Your in."
"Yeah you play awesomely." Said Brawly. Ringo simply gave a small smile and a thumbs up. After that Flash said.
"Just make sure that you get that power under control. We wouldn't want another fall formal to happen." After that Bill did something and Leo reverted back to normal.
"I'll do my best. Now if you excuse me I need to help out Sunset and her friends before they get killed by Rarity. See you all at the friendship games." Then he started to walk out, but before he did he turned around and said. "Oh yeah and flash don't forget about our bet." After that he disappeared.
"What bet?" Asked Brawly. After that flash explained everything that happened between them yesterday.
***
After his little band practice Leo decided to look for his friends after some time he heard some music coming from somewhere. He followed it and found Sunset and her friends practicing. They were all in there ponied up forms. After the song completely finished Leo started to clap. "Bravo guys that was a pretty nice song you've played." After that Sunset said.
"Oh hello Leo. How long have you been standing there?"
"I just heard the finale. Why were you practicing anyway? Were you just wasting time until the games begin?" Asked Leo.
"No. We were actually practicing for the games. I really hope that there's a music competition, because we would totally rock it." She emphasized that point by playing a cord on her guitar. After that Sunset said.
"Um, we're supposed to keep magic out of the Friendship Games, remember?" Rainbow just scoffed at that and then Rarity spoke up.
"Easier said than done, darling. I'm sure in Equestria, magic does whatever you want. But..." After that Sunset sighed and said.
"This isn't Equestria." After that Applejack spoke up.
"Well, when it comes to magic, I'm sure you'll figure it out." She said while patting her on the back and then Rarity spoke up again.
"And while Sunset works on keeping the magic out of the games, I've been working on what to put in!" After that she giggled. Then Applejack asked.
"Rarity, what'd you go an' do?"
"Well, I had a little time on my hands, and since we don't know what the Friendship Games' events are, I made a few options for uniforms!" She said and after she did she pulled out for hangers of clothes out from behind some curtains.
"You really didn't have to do that." Said Rainbow dash, but Rarity ether didn't care or was too excited to hear, because she said.
"I know." After that Applejack two of them off of the hangers and said.
"No. You really didn't have to." Rarity again answered the same way.
"I know!" After that Leo started backing out, But sadly Rarity noticed and said. "Oh where do you think your going Leo. Even tho you are not participating I still made some new outfits for you." After that Rarity grabbed him and pulled him back into the room, but not before saying.
"Somebody please help me."
"No can do dragon boy. Now turn around and take this challenge like a man." With that said Leo was dragged inside and was starting to get tortured by Rarities fashion.
***
After about fifteen minutes of non stop dressing up Applejack asked. "Uh, Rarity, these outfits are great, but why would you put so much time and effort into clothes we might not even wear? You're gonna exhaust yourself before the games even start." After that Rarity looked shocked and said.
"Oh, pff. Kch. Fff. Ts! Don't be silly, darling! Putting effort into clothes is what I live for, and spending time on my friends fills me with energy!" After that she ponied up and everyone in the room looked amazed after that Sunset and Leo said in unison.
"And magic, too, I guess." After that Leo noticed something weird happening with Rarities magic. It started to leave her body and go towards the door. After the magic was completely drained out of Rarity she said.
"Actually, Applejack, now that you mention it, I suppose I could use a tiny break." After that she fell and fainted, but was thankfully caught by Applejack. Then Leo whispered to Bill.
"Did you see that?"
"Yeah I did and I don't like it." He answered.
"I want you to lock down my magic we may have a magic stealer at the school."
"Consider it double done." After that Bill went to lock down the magic. Right after that conversation the doors opened to reveal a very beautiful girl. Well at least to Leo. She had a purple skin colour and dark blue hair with two streaks in her hair. One was a hot pink and the other one was a dark purple. She was also wearing glasses which he found extremely attractive.
After that everyone in the room said "Twilight?" After that the now named Twilight said with a raised eyebrow.
"Uh, yes?" Then Applejack said.
"Well, I'll be. You shoulda told us you were comin'." After that Rarity took a good look at her clothes and said.
"Darling, those glasses. What are you wearing? It's so... severe." After that Twilight took a look at herself.
"My uniform?" She asked and after that Fluttershy spoke up.
"Your uniform for what?" After that she hesitantly said.
"For... Crystal Prep. But why does everyone at this school know who I am?" She asked.
"Yeah why does everyone know who she is and why doesn't anyone of you introduce me to her." Said Leo. After Twilight saw him she started to blush.
"Oh sorry Leo. This is Twilight Sparkle. Twilight this is our newest friend Leo." Said sunset and after she did Leo stepped up to her and stretched out his right hand for a handshake. Twilight did the same and she said.
"I-I'ts nice to meet you Leo." She said after she shook his hand she let it go and started avoiding eye contact with him. After that they all heard barking. Then a purple and green dog popped his head out of her backpack.
After that Fluttershy and Rarity said. "Spike!" Then they both went up to the dog and started to pet him. After that twilight snapped out of her stupor, gasped and said.
"You know my dog's name, too?" After that both of the principals started to come down the hall, because they heard Celestia say.
"And our music program has especially taken off." After that she noticed Twilight and gasped. "Twilight?" Twilight then quickly put Spike and said.
"This is getting ridiculous." After that a mean looking woman said.
"I must apologize for the curiosity of my prized student." After that Celestia said in a surprised tone.
"Your student?" The other woman simply ignored her and said.
"The smart ones are always curious. I'll return her to check in with the rest of her classmates." After that she herded twilight out of the room and towards the front door.
"I didn't know Twilight had a twin sister." Said Celestia. After That Pinkie stepped forward and said.
"She doesn't! That Twilight is obviously the Twilight from this world since it couldn't possibly be the Twilight from the pony world since the Twilight from the pony world doesn't go to Crystal Prep or wear glasses." After that Leo said.
"That actually makes allot of sense. With that done lets get ready for the greeting party." With that said Leo and his friends got ready for the greeting party.
***
After they were finally ready they made their way towards the gym. On the way there Rarity said. "I can't believe our world's Twilight goes to Crystal Prep!" After that Rainbow Dash asked.
"You're saying that Twilight's gonna play against us? She'd never do that!" After that Fluttershy decided to speak up.
"Our Twilight wouldn't." After that Sunset had enough and said in an angry tone of voice.
"Our Twilight is a princess in Equestria and an expert in friendship magic! And if she was here, we'd have already figured out why magic is randomly popping up during pep rallies and costume changes." Then she took in a deep breath and continued. "Sorry. I'm just frustrated that I haven't heard back from her." After that Leo placed his hand on her shoulder and said.
"She's a princess in Equestria. She probably has her own problems to deal with." After that rarity said.
"Yeah like Leo said and besides we certainly can't expect her to drop everything and pop through the portal whenever. Especially if it's to deal with something as minor as a few random pony-ups." After that Sunset said.
"But they aren't minor! Magic came into this world when I stole Twilight's crown. It's taken a lot for me to earn everyone's trust. If we have to forfeit the games because I can't think of a way to keep it under control..." After that Fluttershy said.
"Oh, Sunset, I'm sure you'll be able to figure things out." After that Applejack decided to cheer her up.
"You're the one who helped us understand what was goin' on with the sirens. Remember?" After that Leo asked.
"Sirens?" Then Pinkie stepped in front of him and started to explain.
"The sirens were three creatures that were booted from Equestria and after that they used there evil powers to make everybody at each other, so that they could suck up all of the negative energy. Thankfully we and the Twilight from the other side defeated them so now we are all happy again." After that Leo said.
"Okay then thank you for the update." After that Pinkie returned back to her spot. "Sorry for that interruption please do continue."
"Okay then." Said sunset to Leo and after that she turned to Applejack and continued. "I guess. But Twilight was the one who really figured out what we needed to defeat them." But then Rarity said.
"But don't you remember, darling? What we needed to defeat them was you." Then Sunset sighed and said.
"All right." After that they all cheered excluding Leo. After that Rainbow Said.
"Come on, guys! Let's see if we can find any info about the events and come up with a strategy. You comin', Sunset?" After that Sunset said.
"I'll... catch up with you guys in a bit." With that she left while Leo and the rest went towards the gym.
***
After some time of hunting for information Leo and the gang made their way towards the gym once there Leo said. "I'm going to go and meet some Crystal prep students to see if I can make some new friends." And right when he was about to walk off Rainbow stopped him.
"Wait there hot shot why would you want to do that?"
"Well I'm doing this because first they are guests here at the school and it's only polite and second I'm actually really interested in meeting new people. With that said if you can excuse me?" After that he walked off to meet one of the students Chrystal prep. The first one that he went up to was a blue skinned girl with light blue hair and wearing an orange pair of glasses.
When he got up to her he said. "Hello there my name is Leo and welcome to Canterlot high. What's your name?" After that he extended his hand and waited for her to shake it. After a minute he said. "Well now don't be rude. I'm just extending the hand of friendship." After that she answered in a monotone voice.
"What are you doing here aren't we enemies. You only want to befriend us so that we would go easy on you at the games making us lose." After that Leo only looked shocked, but he didn't lower his hand. After a minute he snapped out of it and then he said.
"That couldn't be further from the truth." After that she wanted to speak but Leo stopped her. "Let me finish. First of I'm not competing in the games and second I'm new at this school. I've been going here for like four days. Now could you please tell me your name?" After a moment of hesitation she finally shook his hand and said in the same tone of voice.
"My name is Sugarcoat. It's nice to meet you. Can I ask you something?"
"You just did, but yeah." Said Leo with a sly smirk. Sugarcoat then also smiled.
"Wise guy, but seriously why are you talking to us? Didn't you hear that we always beet you at everything?" She asked.
"Well if I'm perfectly honest. I do know about that, but I just don't care. I rather make friends and enjoy the competition. Which leads me to my next question. Are you competing?" After that she answered.
"Yes I am actually and I really can't wait to start. Well now if you excuse me I'm gonna go and get myself something to drink." After that she started to go towards the drink table.
"It was nice to meet you. Now who do I want to meet next?" With that he searched the room for his next target. After some time of searching he found one.She was a pink skinned girl with two shades of green in her hair. She was also wearing a pair of pinkish-red headphones which she was using by the looks of it, since she was boobing her head up and down to some sort of music.
With his target in sight he made his way over to her. When he did he tapped her on the shoulder to get her attention. After he did that she turned around and put down her headphones. When she did Leo said. "Hello there and welcome to CHS. My name is Leo what's yours?" He said while extending out his hand. She shook it and said.
"My name's Lemon Zest nice to meet you Leo. So what's it like going to this school?"
"It's quite nice, but then again I have been going to this school for like four days, so I guess I can't say too much about that." Answered Leo.
"Oh so you are a new guy. That explains why you are not giving us the stink eye. Hey do you like music?" She asked.
"Yeah I do. Why?" He asked after that she placed her headphones on his ears and started to play a song.
Leo was bobbing his head to the song and when it finally finished he gave her back her headphones and said. "Nice I definitely like it. You have great taste in music."
"Thank you I don't get allot of people telling me dad. You know what? You're cool Leo. Let's meet up again after the games." She said while raising her fist for a fist bump. Leo bumped it and said.
"Definitely, now I'm going off to mingle with some other students." He said.
"Okay then see you later." After that she put her headphones back on and continued to listen to her music. When she did Leo checked around for another target. She had a light blue skin colour with purple and faded pink hair. She was also wearing some weird bracelets that looked like small computers.
With his target in sight he walked over. He tried to introduce himself but was immediately stopped by her saying. "Wow those are some nice clothes where did you get them." Since he thought that that was a trick question he answered.
"These old rags. Well this was made by my mother. She's quite the designer. By the way my name is Leo."
"Well it's nice to meet you Leo. My name is Sunny Flare and tell your mother that she has created quite the ensemble and that she should really think about starting in the clothing business."
"Thanks I will. Hey may I ask what are those things on your wrists?" After that she looked at them and said.
"Oh these these are my computers. I made them myself and they have a couple of pretty nice features and they are also fashionable." After that she showed him some features off her wrist computers. After she finished she left to go and get herself something to eat. Leo then looked for the next person that he was going to talk to. After some time he found one and started to walk over to her. She had a slightly faded peach coloured skin with three different shades of blue in her hair.
When he got to her he said. "Hello there. How are you enjoying your stay at CHS?" After that she turned around and asked.
"Who wants to know?"
"Oh just little old me. My name's Leo and I'm the new guy of CHS. And you are?" After that she smiled.
"I like you Leo you are at least willing to talk to us. My name's Indigo Zap its nice to meet ya." After that she raised her hand for a fist bump. Leo bumped it and then she asked. "Hey you are the guy who has been talking with us aren't you? look what you did. You broke the ice and now everyone is talking with each other. This is awesome." After that Leo looked around and sure enough everyone was talking with each other.
"Well I guess being the new guy has some benefits doesn't it?"
"Yeah it sure does. Now if you excuse me I'm going to go out and mingle. It was nice meeting you and I hope to see you later." With that she left and Leo was again on his own.
"Okay then, one more and then I'm going to go and find Twilight." With that he again checked for students that he could talk to. After some time he found another girl. She had a yellow skin colour and pink hair with a green streak going through it. She also had freckles on her face.
With her in sight he made his way towards her. When he arrived he said. "Hello there. My name's Leo and welcome to CHS." After that she put on a smile said and said in a sweet tone of voice.
"Oh hello there Leo my name is Sour Sweet." After that her face turned serious. "Now please leave me alone." Leo flinched, but didn't go away.
"Well that's a bit rude do you greet all people like that, because it isn't very nice." He said while crossing his arms.
"Sorry about that. I'm a little bipolar. I really hope you can forgive me. I try to keep it under control, but it sometimes slips away."
"Don't worry about that. It takes allot more then a couple of insults to deter me from making a friend." Said Leo.
"Okay then It was nice to meet you Leo. I Hope to see you at the games." After that her face again turned angry. "So I can rub the trophy in your face." Leo just kept on smiling.
"Yeah I hope to see you as well." After that Leo walked off to find Twilight. When he found her she was looking at a device around her neck walking into a couple of people. Then Bill decided to speak up.
"Hey Dragon boy. You see that device around her neck?" Leo looked and then nodded. "Well that device is what is stealing all of the magic. You might want to keep her distracted so that she doesn't steal even more."
"Well then that's good then, because I was planing on having a conversation with her. Now with that said if she is stealing magic then make sure that my doesn't get stolen." And with that said Leo walked over to Twilight to ask her for a dance. While he was doing that Pinkie decided to spice up the party so that it was more fun and just as he was about to ask her, Celestia stepped on stage and started talking.
"Hello, everyone! I'd like to take this opportunity to greet all of our visitors from Crystal Prep Academy and welcome them to CHS and before I get this started, I would like to recognize the twelve students that CHS has elected to compete. I don't think we could have chosen a better group to represent the excellence, sportsmanship, and friendship the games stand for." After that Leo heard a small explosion and after that confetti and better music started to play. With all that behind him he walked up to Twilight.
"Hello there Twilight. So how are you enjoying your stay here?" When she heard his voice she quickly turned to him and started to blush again.
"Oh h-hello there Leo. It's been quite nice. Even tho all of the people somehow know my name. Do you know anything about that?"
"No sorry I Really don't know. I've been going to this school for about four days, so I guess I wasn't in on the joke or I'm missing something." He lied. After that her necklace started to glow again and then he asked. "Hey what is that?" After that she picked it up and answered.
"It's sort of a spectrometer. I built it to track EM frequencies, but it can also contain anomalies."
"Well that definitely explains why you look so distracted all the time." After he said that Twilight looked completely shocked.
"Wait you actually understood what I said?" Leo simply smiled and said.
"I may not look like it, but I actually do have quite the big vocabulary so yeah I did understand."
"Oh well I've newer meet another student from a different school that actually understood me without me dumbing it down." After that Leo said in a british accent.
"Well then you can call me lord Leo and bow down, because it looks like my smarts are above yours." He finished off that statement by twirling an imaginary mustache Twilight only chuckled at his small joke. After that someone tapped on the microphone causing it to feedback. Then the music stopped and the mean woman stepped up to the microphone and said.
"I'd like to thank Principal Celestia for her unconventional welcome. It's been four years since the last Friendship Games, but it feels as though nothing has changed. Canterlot High continues to pick its competitors in a popularity contest and Crystal Prep continues to field its top twelve students. It is a comfort to know that even after so many years of losses, your school remains committed to its ideals, however misguided they may be. I wish you all the best of luck, regardless of the inevitable outcome." After that she let the stage and everything went back into the swing of things. After that Leo asked.
"Who is that woman?" Asked Leo.
"That is principal Cinch. She is the principal of Crystal prep."
"Well if she is then your school must be a pretty boring and very very strict. That is definitely not a place that I would like to go even though I was eligible to go there." He said.
"Wait you were eligible to go to crystal prep then why didn't you go?" She asked in a shocked voice.
"Well Twilight as much as that school would be perfect for me, but when I saw the rule book, and I emphasize the book part of it very strongly, I simply picked it up and threw it out the window. Then I went and searched for a different school. And when I did check over it just for the heck of it I saw that it was a school of only work and no play." After that Twilight stopped him.
"Okay okay I get it we have to many rules at our school, so I guess I can understand. The school is not for everyone." After that all of the students started to leave the gym and going to the main hall. "Well it looks like the games are starting. Will I see you again after the first event?" She asked. Leo then simply smiled and said.
"Yes you will. See you then." With that Twilight left the gym. After some time Sunset tapped him on the shoulder.
"Well looks like someone has a crush." She said with a smile.
"Is it that obvious?"
"It's mostly the smile, but yeah it is and it looks like she has a crush on you as well. You two would make a really cute couple."
"You really think so?" He asked.
"Sure just keep on doing with what you are doing. Now let's go to the main hall before we are late." With that said they both left the gym.
***
When they arrived at the main hall all of the students were again separated by their school title and conversing with them selves. After about ten minutes of that principal Celestia, vice principal Luna and dean Cadance walked up to all the students and after that Luna started to speak. "Good morning, students. I'm sure you're all thrilled to start the first day of the Friendship Games. Our competitors will face off in every aspect of the CHS curriculum, culminating in the elimination equation finale." After she said that Cadance stepped forward and said.
"Welcome to the first event, the Academic Decathlon! You'll be scored on chemistry, home-ec and everything in between. But remember, only the six students from each team with the most points will move on to event number 2. Good luck!" With that all of they all went to the first classroom with all of the contestant following behind them. After they all left Leo said.
"Well I don't have anything else to do. Lets go to the library and go on one of those computers. What do you think Bill?"
"Eh I don't have any problems with that. Lets go!" He said while shrugging. With that said they both made there way to the library.
***
After about three hours of doing research, looking up things on Youtube and playing a couple of games Leo heard vice principal Luna talking over the intercom. "All students, if you can please make your way to the gym where you can watch the final competitions. That will be all." After that her voice cut out.
"Well dragon boy are we going?" Asked Bill. After that Leo shut down the computer and packed up all of his books and said.
"Yeah we're going. Might as well see whats going on there." After that Leo got up and made his way to the gym. After he got there he saw all of the students sitting in the chairs while all off his Canterlot and Crystal prep friends are on a stage waiting for the competition to begin. With his observations made he went to the front row and sat down. When his friends noticed him they all nodded he nodded back and then vice principal Luna said.
"Okay students this competition is going to be a spelling bee. This is also going to be an elimination round. We are going to be asking you to spell out words that we are going to be giving you and we are going to be doing this until only two of you remain. Those final two are then going to be doing the equation finale. With that said would the first contestant please step up to the microphone." When she said that Pinkie stepped up to the microphone.
"Okay Pinkie spell apprise." Said Cadance.
"Okay apprise a-p-p-r-i-s-e. Apprise."
"Okay then point to Canterlot." Said Luna. After that Pinkie returned to her seat and Lemon Zest stepped up to the mic and the process repeated. The competition went off for the next half an hour and to be perfectly honest it was extremely boring, because Leo almost fell asleep. Right before he would he heard Cadance say.
"Okay then here are our final contestants." That woke Leo right up and he said.
"I'm up. I'm up." After that he heard Sugarcoat say.
"No you weren't. Now be quiet." Leo simply saluted and continued to listen. While this little exchange was going on two students brought out two blackboards with the same equation on them. After that Cadance continued.
"Okay so the two contestants are Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle. Now everybody else please take a seat on the chairs and let them work." With that said everyone besides Twilight and Sunset left the stage. "Now you two are going to have an equation in front of you. I want you to solve them as fast as possible and finish off with the correct answer. After you are done principal Cinch is going to check them and that is going to be the deciding point for who wins the first event. With that said are you two ready?" They both picked up their own pieces of chalk and nodded. "Okay then. Get ready. And. Go!" After that was said they both went to work on solving the equation. They were both going very quickly and after three minutes they were both finished. Then principal Cinch stepped up on stage and looked at their work. After a minute she pointed to Sunsets and said.
"Incorrect!" After that Luna said.
"That means the winner of the Friendship Games' first event is Twilight Sparkle and Crystal Prep!" After that the students from Crystal Prep sighed and started to slowly applause, but not Rainbow Dash and the rest of Sunsets friends. They all got up from their seats and ran over to Sunset to congratulate her. Leo then followed behind in a more subdued way.
"That was awesome!" Said Rainbow.
"Truly amazing!" Added Rarity.
"But we didn't win!" Said Sunset. After that Leo stepped up to her and said.
"Well as long as you had fun. Does it really matter and besides we still have two more events to go through, so we can still win this." After that Sunset smiled and Rainbow said.
"Yeah we can still win this." After that Cadance walked up to the microphone and said.
"After a careful tally of the points, we'd like to present the students moving on to the Friendship Games' second event." After that all of the contestants that participated at the spelling bee stepped forward. After that Leo stepped up to Twilight and said.
"Congratulations! You were really great!" He said. Twilight again blushed and said.
"Thank you Leo." After that the device around her neck started to glow and she said. "Hold that thought." After that she picked up the device and started to follow it. Leo wanted to stop her, but was stopped by Celestia.
"Hey um Leo. Could you come over here? I need your help with something." Leo wanted to say no, but then his conscious got the better of him and said.
"Sure what do you need me for?"
"I heard that you also have these special powers that some of our students have. Could you please make sure that nothing magical happens for the rest of the games?"
"Sure I can. Now if you excuse me I need to be somewhere." After that he ran off after Twilight.
***
After some time of searching the school Leo said. "Fuck it I don't know where she is and I can't find her." After that Leo heard Principal Cinch talking to Twilight.
"I dunno. Spying feels kind of... wrong." Said twilight.
"Well, it's your decision, Twilight. It's not as if your application hangs in the balance. On second thought, yes, it does." After that principal Cinch left the corridor. Leo quickly hid inside a locker and waited for her to leave the place. After she did Leo stepped out of the locker and walked to Twilight who was currently holding Spike.
"Hey there Twilight. Spike." After that Spike started to talk.
"Oh hello Leo. How are you doing?"
"Pretty good. Hey since when can you talk?" Asked Leo.
"I could always talk. The only difference now is that you can understand me." He answered.
"Okay then next question. What just happened with you and principal Bitch. Oh sorry Cinch." Said Leo while his eyes turned slightly lizard like.
"Oh nothing major. She is just forcing Twilight to do what she..." After that Twilight covered Spikes mouth and Twilight smiled.
"That is exactly what I needed to hear. Now if you excuse me I need to burn a principal." And after that he wanted to go after her, but was stopped by Twilight grabbing onto his hand.
"No please don't. Don't do anything to her. She is only trying to keep up appearance of the school. Please don't hurt her."
"But she is forcing you to spy on your new friends to do it and that is not the way to do it. Whatever that application is can not be worth you mentally snapping. Now please let go off my hand and let me do what I have to." But she only clung tighter.
"No please don't do it. I'm not going to spy on anybody just please don't hurt her. Please." She said with some tears in her eyes. When Leo saw that his anger completely disappeared and his eyes turned back to normal. Then he sighed.
"Okay Twilight I wont hurt her. Just please stop crying and don't let her dictate your life." After that she wiped away her tears and said.
"Thank you and I'll try." After that Leo smiled and said.
"Now lets go to the next event an again don't let her dictate your life it's just not worth it. It can't be worth this much." After that she also smiled. Picked up Spike, placed him in her backpack and then they went off to the next event.
***
After a minute of searching they finally got to the outside track. Twilight and Leo were completely shocked at finding what they saw there. "Well Twilight good luck. Now go to your team and get ready I'll be routing for you."
"Thanks Leo." After that Twilight smiled and went to her team while Leo went to the tribunes to take a seat. After about five minutes dean Cadance stepped up on a stage and started to talk.
"Welcome, everyone to the Friendship Games Tricross Relay!" After that was said every student started to cheer. When they calmed down she continued. "In this event, our qualifying competitors will face off in archery, speed skating, and finally, motocross." After that everyone got ready. When they were she said. "So if the competitors are ready..." After that she blew an air horn and the competition began. Sour Sweet and Applejack were up first. First they jumped over two hay bales and after that they jumped on a row and swung on it after that they picked up a bow and quiver and started to shot at the targets. "Each competitor must hit a bullseye before their teammates can start the next leg of the relay." After that they both hit a bullseye and then Twilight and Fluttershy repeated the actions. Fluttershy finished first starting of Pinkie and Rarity, while Twilight was still trying to hit the bullseye. After pinkie and Rarity did about five laps Applejack had enough and went over to her and started helping her out.
"Ugh! I can't take anymore! Ya have to stop aimin' at the target." After that Sour Sweet said in a sarcastic voice.
"Oh, that makes perfect sense! Don't aim at the target! Thanks so much!" Applejack ignored her and continued.
"Ya have to stop aimin' at where the target is an' aim at where the target's gonna be." Then Sour Sweet said.
"Yeah! Definitely take advice from the person you're competing against!" She shouted out the last part in her angry voice. Applejack again ignored her and said.
"Do you wanna hit the bullseye or not?" She nodded. "Then trust me and take a deep breath." Then she took that breath and lined up her shot. "Let the arrow go... riiiiight.... now!" Right after she said that she shot the arrow and it hit the bullseye. After she did Crystal prep started at the skating ring. "See? I was tellin' ya the truth." After that Applejack ponied up, but that didn't last long because Twilight device activated and started to drain her magic. "Eh... what... are... you... doing?!" She asked.
"I don't know!" After that the device closed and it flew off across the track. Then Cadance said.
"Canterlot only has two laps to go! But it looks like Crystal Prep is making up for lost time!" That sure enough was true. when they finally caught up to them they both crossed the finish line starting the third section of the race. After that happened portals started to appear around the course and out of them some sort of plants started to appear.
"Oh no. I'm not letting them eat my friends or anyone for that matter. Flame on!" After that Leo breathed out a stream of flames on himself turning into his dragon form. "Now lets cut some overgrown weeds and you Bill make sure that device doesn't start to suck up our magic."
"Consider it done." After that he grabbed the two spears from his back and launched himself at one of the plants that was about to hit Sunset. He stabbed it with his spear burning it to ash. After that he went for the next one. While he was fighting the plants Rainbow also ponied up and started to help as well. With both of their efforts combined they managed to clear a path for the racers to pass. When they did the renegade plants started to retreat into the portals and then they closed behind them. Then Cadance said.
"Canterlot wins!" And after a round of applause she said. "Now if everyone could please proceed to the gym." After that all of the students left the course except for Sunset, Leo, Twilight and her friends. Leo made sure that before he stepped up to her that he powered down or else risk losing his magic like it happened to Applejack. Of course Rainbow dash didn't do that so her magic got stolen as well. After that happened Twilight said.
"I'm sorry! It just started absorbing energy on its own! But I'm not sure how!" Then Sunset said.
"What do you mean you don't know how?! You don't even understand it what do you even think you are doing?!" After that Leo put his hand on her shoulder and said.
"Okay Sunset calm down." Then she stopped him and said.
"And you. You have a dragon form. Why didn't you tell us?"
"Look that doesn't matter now. Now we need to get rid of that device before it causes some more trouble." Then he turned to Twilight. "Could you please give that device?" He asked while extending his hand.
"But, but. This could advance science by at least fifty years."
"And yet it caused all of this. Now please Twilight." After that she reluctantly gave the device to Leo. "Thanks Twilight you'll see that this is for the best. Now lets go to the gym before we get in trouble." With that said Leo pocketed the device and they made their way towards the gym, but what they were not aware was that principal Cinch was listening in on their conversation. After that she saw the device and went over to it. She picked it up and got an idea. After that she went to the gym as well.
***
After a little conversation about what happened outside. The principal redirected all of the students to the front courtyard where the final event is going to take place. After Leo sat down Cadance started to talk. "Since the score's tied, the final event will determine the winner of the Friendship Games." After her vice principal Luna said.
"Somewhere on campus, a pennant from each school has been hidden. The first team to find their school's flag and bring it back wins." She said while holding the two pennants in her hand for all to see. After that Cadance continued.
"And as soon as our teams are ready, we'll begin."
"Okay lets win this." Said Rainbow.
"Yeah lets show them what CHS is made out off." Said Applejack. The rest of them agreed and while that conversation is going down principal Cinch was talking to Twilight.
"I know I'm asking you to beat a team that isn't playing fair, but Canterlot High must be made to understand that even with magic at their disposal, beating Crystal Prep is simply not an option." Then Sugarcoat said.
"What if they grow wings again?"
"A fair question. Though I believe we can now fight fire with fire. I've seen what your device can do, Twilight. Containing magical energy is fine, but have you considered releasing it?" She said while pulling out the device. Twilight looked shocked and then she asked.
"Where did you get that?"
"That doesn't matter Twilight the only thing that does matter is that you do as I tell you to. Your application to Everton is on the line. Now take this device and release the magic.
"If all of the students are ready." Both Luna and Cadance said. While Twilight and Sunset started to walk closer to each other. When Leo noticed the device he quickly searched his pockets and when he didn't find it he yelled to Twilight.
"Twilight don't do it." After that Luna and cadance said.
"Then begin." After that Leo jumped of the tribune and ran towards Twilight to stop her, but sadly he was to late, because Luna and Cadance said. "Now." After that an explosion happened blasting both Sunset and Leo backwards. Twilight then dropped the device and started to float up in front of the ball of magic. When Leo got to he said.
"Bill what the fuck is happening to her."
"She is absorbing the magic and she can't handle it so it's corrupting her turning her insane."
"That is what I was afraid of." After that the magic ball disappeared leaving behind a magic charged Twilight.
When the magic ball completely disappeared Twilight opened her eyes, looked at herself and after that she started to laugh. After the laugh she turned to Sunset and said. "You were right! I didn't understand magic before, but I do now!" After that she blasted the statue destroying it and creating another portal. When Sunset saw what was inside it she said.
"Equestria!" After that the ground started to crack and fall off making all of the students back away from it. After that Leo got up and said.
"Flame on!" After that he again turned into his dragon form and when he finished he flew up to Twilight and said. "Twilight please stop all of this. You are going to lose your self to the magic."
"Oh what do you know. It's not hurting me."
"Yeah it's not hurting you physically, but it is hurting you mentally. Now please stop before you get hurt." After that Twilight had enough and blasted him into the school.
"Shut up! You know nothing!" She said. After that she continued her destruction.
"Okay then, if I can't talk some sense into you then I'll smack some into you."He said to himself. After that he launched himself at her delivering a hay maker to her face. That punch sent her flying across the street and into the ground. That angered her so she tried to blast him with her magic. Leo dodged the attack and blew a torrent of flame at her. It struck her leg which made her scream. When she finished, she felt him grabbing her by his wings. After that he threw her into the ground. While this fight was going on Zyon was flying over from the cove, because he felt a large amount of magic coming from it.
"Leo please be okay." After he finally arrived he started to circle over the school sadly Twilight saw him.
"Ohh a dragon huh? I need to get his magic I need to understand it all!" After that she started flying towards him while also shooting magic at him. Leo flew after her and grabbed her by her leg. When he did he yelled.
"Zyon! Fly away let me finish this and after that we'll talk. Now please fly away as fast as you can!" After that he launched Twilight straight into the ground, while zyon quickly obeyed and flew away. After that Twilight charged up a giant attack when she finished she flew up behind Leo and blasted it at him, launching him straight into the school where he was now unconscious.
"Welp that is done now back to gathering up magic." After that she created another portal. After that Sunset said.
"This isn't the way! I know you feel powerful right now, like you can have everything you want! I've been where you are, I've made the same mistake you're making! I put on a crown and, just like you, I was overwhelmed by the magic it contained! I thought it could get me everything I wanted!" After that the device, which she picked up started to glow.
"Oh, you're wrong. Unlike you, I can have everything I want!" Said Twilight. When she did all of Sunsets friends started to glow. After that Sunset said.
"No, you can't. Even with all that magic and power, you'll still be alone! True magic comes from honesty! Loyalty! Laughter! Generosity! Kindness! I understand you, Twilight, and I want to show you the most important magic of all..." While she said each element. One of her friends which represent it started to levitate. When they started to float, the device started to gather up all of the magic. When it finished she closed it and said. "...the Magic of Friendship!" After that she threw the device on the ground which released another ball of magic which started to transform Sunset. When it finished she looked very similar to Twilight only that her wings were made out of light.
After that she closed all of the portals and then Twilight and Sunset clashed together into a magic off. At first they were equal, but then Twilight started to get stronger. Thinking that she had won she started to laugh, But then spike ran up to her and called out to her. "Twilight!" That then snapped her out for a bit giving Sunset the opportunity to win. When Twilight was able to see again she was in a white void the only other person there being Sunset. She floated over to her and extended her hand.
"Take my hand, Twilight. Let me show you there's another way... just like someone once did for me." At first Twilight looked scared and reluctant, but after a while she gave her her hand and then they both started to turn back to normal. Once the transformation finished they were back on the ground in their human forms. After that Twilight said.
"I am so sorry... I didn't mean for any of this to happen..." She said while dropping a couple of tears.
"I know. And going by my own experiences, they'll forgive you." Said Sunset. After that Spike jumped into Twilights arms while holding her glasses in his mouth. She giggled, but then she remembered something.
"Where's Leo?" After that Twilight ran off to where she thought she blasted Leo. Sunset wanted to check on him as well, but in the end she decided against it. When Twilight found Leo he was still unconsciously laying on the ground she quickly ran over to him and started to shake him. When he didn't move she started to cry. "Leo please wake up. Please. I need you to be here for me now more then ever. So please wake up." After that she started to cry on his chest. After around a minute of that she felt someone touch her hair. She looked up and sure enough it was Leo.
"What did I say about you and crying?" Twilight was overjoyed to see him up. So overjoyed that she kissed him. After she realised what she's done she quickly broke the kiss up and started to apologise.
"I'm so sorry Leo I didn't know what I was doing and I probably took away your first kiss and hmph." But her statement was cut off by Leo kissing her two. After they finished he said.
"I love you two. Now lets get out of this rubble so that I can burn Principal Bitch." With that he got up and started to walk over to the principal still in his dragon form.
"What are you going to do to her?"
"Did you ever hear about the saying rake someone across the coals." She nodded and then it clicked.
"Ohh got ya." With that said they both arrived to hear the end of the conversation between the principals.
"Oh, and the portals to different dimensions." Said Luna.
"And don't forget to tell them about the talking dog." Said Cadance. After that principal cinch wanted to walk away but was stopped by a literal fire wall.
"Where do you think your going?" Said Leo while manipulating the fire to form a cage for her.
"What is the meaning of this release me now you freak." Leo only smiled.
"Or what you are going to call the cops on me. What are you going to tell them that a dragon boy burned you." After that his face turned serious and he pulled out his spear. "No my dear you are not going to do anything to me, because if you do I have prof that you manipulate your students for your own gain and she is standing right next to me." He said while pointing to twilight. After that the principal Cinch looked shocked.
"You wouldn't. That would ruin Crystal prep for ever."
"Well I guess that is for Twilight to decide." Then he turned to her and asked. "So twilight what is your decision?" After that Twilight stepped forward.
"You may have manipulated me and probably a couple before me, but I am not going to be the one to destroy your 'reputation'." She said with a smile, but then her face turned serious. "But if you do this again I will send him after you." Then he turned to Leo and said. "Now let her go." Leo did as he was asked and after that she ran away.
"Is that true Twilight?" Asked Cadance.
"Yeah sadly it is, but I don't care about that school anymore. I think I'm going to start going to this one instead. Everton may have a good solo program, but I think I want to learn more about friendship instead." After that Cadance smirked.
"And it surely has nothing to do with that boy over there." She said while pointing at Leo who was currently talking to Rainbow. Twilight only blushed. Telling Cadance all that she needed to know. "Okay then I'll make sure that you get transferred here." With that said Cadance left Twilight alone to talk to the principals. With nothing else to do she walked over to Leo who has already turned back to normal. She tapped him on the shoulder and said.
"Hey there Leo can I ask you something in private?" Leo nodded and she led him away to a more private place.
"What do you want to know?"
"Um I don't remember it clearly, but I think I saw a dragon and I also remember you giving it a name Zyon if I remember correctly. So I guess my question is why did you know his name." At first he looked a little scared, but then he sighed and said.
"Well if we are going to be a couple might as well show you. Please follow me." With that Leo led Twilight to behind the school. When they were at the spot where Leo gets home he called out. "Zyon please come out I have someone here that I want you to meet." After that Zyon came out of the bushes and showed himself. Twilight was completely scared and she was going to scream, but thankfully Leo stopped her by placing a hand over her mouth. "Don't worry he is not going to hurt you. Now please calm down." After that Twilight calmed down and said.
"Okay I'm calm now please continue." Leo simply nodded and said.
"Okay then Zyon meet my new girlfriend Twilight and Twilight meet my adoptive father Zyon." After that Zyon extended his front right claw and said.
"Nice to meet you." But the only thing that Twilight could hear was quiet roaring. Twilight then shook his claw and said.
"Nice to meet you." But then something clicked in her head. "Wait did you say father." After that Zyon said.
"Yes he is we found him in the forest and took him in as our own." But again the only thing that Twilight heard was Zyon growling at her.
"Um Leo are you sure he is not going to hurt me, because he keeps growling at me."
"What do you mean he's not growling? He just explained to you how we are related." Asked Leo in a confused tone then Zyon turned to him and said.
"Maybe she can not talk in dragon."
"That would definitely explains this." Then he turned to Twilight and said. "I'll guess I'll have to translate. He said yes he is we found him in the forest and took him in as our own."
"Okay then this explains why you turned into a half dragon. Next question are there more of you?"
"Yes there are there's my wife two friends and their two children." Leo forwarded the message to Twilight.
"Wow there are more of you. This is amazing I need to tell this to Spike." After that she wanted to run off to tell him, but Leo stopped her.
"Before you do that. You need to promise me that you are going to tell only him and nobody else. If your first reaction is anything to go by then they are not going to react in a rational way. So please keep this between you, me and Spike." After that Zyon pokes him. Leo nodded and turned to Twilight. "And could you please tell the others that I went home." Twilight then nodded and said.
"Okay Leo and I promise to keep this a secret." Then she stepped up to him and kissed him. Leo then smiled and climbed on Zyon.
"Alright then Twilight see you tomorrow." After that Zyon took off and Twilight was left alone.

Chapter 6 "a day with Twilight"
The next morning Leo was in a good mood. So good in fact that he knew someone was going to ruin it. "So dragon boy what are we going to be doing today."
"Nothing big. After what happened yesterday I'm good to just chill and relax." After that he heard some laughing coming from the kitchen area. When he came up to the door he could hear Axel say.
"So he finally got a mate and it was not even the one from his group and she is coming over at the weekend. Man this is priceless can't wait to see who he brings next maybe that one with the red and yellow hair." Well that was definitely wrong to say behind his back, but he decided to play it cool until the right moment arrives. With that in mind he put on a smile and walked out of his room.
"Good morning guys. What are you all snickering about? You kinda woke me up with it." After that they all quickly stopped laughing and then Axel said.
"Oh it's nothing we were just talking about what we are going to eat for lunch." Leo of course didn't buy it, but he still walked over to Axel and said.
"Hey Axel did you know that I can do a new trick now with my magic."
"Oh really. What is it?" After that he morphed into his dragon mode and said.
"Just this." And then he tried to punch him, but he sadly missed, because Axel dodged it and pinned him to the ground.
"Nice trick, but it's going to take allot more then that to defeat me." He said in a proud voice. Leo only smirked.
"You mean like this." He said while making the staff appear in his hand. After he did he hit Axel straight off of him and outside the cave. After that he got up and dusted himself off and when he finished that he transformed back just in time to hear Amelia squeal in joy.
"Oh this is so awesome now I'm going to be able to teach you how to fly along with Toothless and Sapphire. This is going to be so awesome." She said while hugging Leo.
"I'm sorry to say this, but I already know how to fly with my new wings. Even if I can't explain it, but I can." After that she stopped hugging him and her smile dropped. "But I can still improve and learning from an expert is the best way so sure I will join you." After that she hugged him again. "Okay Amelia you are slightly braking my spine." He chocked out.
"Oh sorry." She said while quickly letting go of him.
"Okay then how about I get some breakfast in me and after that Axel can fly me off to school." After that Axel stumbled into the room.
"I did not agree to that and ouch." He said while massaging the spot where I hit him.
"Well you started it. Now get to eating your breakfast before were late." With that said they all started to eat their own breakfasts.
***
After breakfast was over Axel flew Leo off to school, but while he was flying he was grumbling the whole way. "Oh come on Axel I didn't hit you that hard." After that he stopped grumbling and sighed.
"Yeah you did I flew out of the cave remember, but I'm going to pay you back right about... now." With that he turned upside down and Leo started to fall towards the ground.
"Axel you're a dick." Are the last words that he heard before he left his hearing range.
"Yeah I know." With that said he flew off towards the cove. As Leo was falling Bill decided to ask.
"So are you going to dragon up or are you going to go splat, because I definitely don't want to see you go splat."
"First off I didn't know you cared so much about me." He said in a dramatic voice "And second no I'm not going to go splat. Actually scratch that I am." With that said Leo hit the ground, but it didn't stop him. It was almost like the ground was water and he could swim through it.
"Oh I see someone learned a new trick. How long did it take you to device such a spell?" Asked Bill while Leo climbed out of the asphalt.
"Well if I'm completely honest it took me half a year to do it and let just say that it had me stumped at a couple of things, but I pulled through." He said in a proud tone.
"And why didn't you ask me to help you out?"
"For extra credit and because I liked the whole process of experimenting with magic." Said Leo while walking to the school.
"Well next time you try to experiment with magic please tell me so that you don't get blown up and when did you have time to experiment and how didn't I see you doing it?"
"In the dreamscape. I cloned myself and I was multitasking between your lessons and experimenting." After that he saw Flash and his band. "Now please be quiet while I talk with Flash and the gang." With that Leo walked up to Flash, Brawly and Ringo. "Hey guys what's up." The first one to answer was Brawly and he made sure to make it physical.
"Hey there Leo how's it going man." Said Brawly while punching him on the shoulder.
"Eh I could be better, but how are the rest of you doing?" Ringo only raised his thumb up.
"Eh same here. Hey you want to come and practice with us. I have some new songs in mind that we could play." Asked Flash.
"Sure why not. It's not like I have anything better to do and with some of the repairs that need to be done I have plenty of time." He said while walking towards the school with Flash, Brawly and Ringo close behind.
***
Once at the music room Leo grabbed the violin and then he asked. "So what are we going to be preforming today."
"Well today we are going to be practicing these songs." Said Flash while giving him a piece of paper with sheet music. After taking a good look at them he said.
"Okay then let me just get a stand for this and then we can get started." With that said Leo went to grab a stand and when he got it he brought it to them and placed the sheet music on it.
"Are you ready?" Asked Flash while checking his microphone. Leo simply nodded and after that they all started to play the first song.
Brawly and Ringo were taking care of the beat while Leo played the main theme and Flash took the vocals. After the song ended Leo said. "That was a great song Flash but do you have anything a little bit more lively for us to play?"
"Yes I do flip the page and we can get started." With that Leo flipped over the page and read through the music. After he finished he said.
"Oh yeah this will do. Okay then Brawly start us off." With that said Brawly started to play the drums and Ringo added his electric keyboard to add to the beat. Leo and Flash again went to their positions and started to play and sing along to the song.
Right after the song ended someone stumbled in through the door and who else should it be but Twilight. "Oh sorry dis I interupt something?" She said.
"No we just finished. So what are you doing here don't you have some classes to go to?" Asked Leo while helping Twilight back on her feet.
"Yeah I do it's just that I'm not used to this school yet. Could you give me a short tour to cower the basics?" She asked.
"Sure why not. Let me just clean up after myself." With that he wanted to do that, but was stopped by Ringo who simply turned him around and pushed him out the door.
"Well clean up you make sure that she gets a good tour." Said Brawly. With that said he closed the door and Twilight and Leo were left alone. With that Leo dusted himself off and said.
"Okay then Twilight lets start with that tour. Shall we." He said while stretching out his arm. Twilight only smiled and hooked her arm around his and said.
"We shall." With that Leo started the tour.
***
During their little tour Leo noticed that Twilight was slightly nodding off. After the fourth time where she jerked away Leo decided to ask. "Twilight. Is there something wrong I hope I'm not boring you with the tour, because you seem to be nodding off?" After that she was fully awake and then she quickly said.
"No, no. It's not you or the tour I just didn't sleep much last night."
"Oh is that so. You want to tell me what kept you up?"
"I rather not." She said while looking away.
"Come on Twilight it can be worse then mine." He said. After he did Twilight turned to him and asked.
"Oh and what did you dream about that could be worse then mine?"
"Well do you know how to skin an animal?" She shook her head. "Well then imagine some fresh animal skins and organs spinning around me like I was in the epicenter of a tornado and that Twilight is what I dreamt last night." He said while finishing off his story with a smile.
"Okay when I compare it to that then it really isn't so bad, but compared to yours mine was allot more vivid." She said.
"If it was that vivid then please tell me what it was about. Trust me when you tell someone you are going to feel allot better." Said Leo while giving her a small shoulder hug.
"Okay I'll tell you when we get to the library. That is where we are going right?" Leo simply nodded and then they made their way towards the library.
***
Once they were at the library and were ready Twilight started explain herself. "Okay then the nightmare started off with me waking up and getting ready for my first day at CHS, but everything went wrong when I got to school. Every single person was avoiding me and giving me these death glares. To say that it got to me was an understatement. After I got to my first class I sat down and then right after every single person in the room shot a spitball or threw a crunched up piece of paper at me. When I turned around to tell them off I saw there eyes and they were the eyes of Midnight Sparkle all staring at me. After that everything around me crumbled away and I was left in a purple void and then in front of me Midnight appeared then she said that she is going to take control and then she flew into me and I started to turn back into Midnight Sparkle and then I woke up." After she finished her explanation she hid her face in her arms and started to cry. "And to make it even worse every time I went back to sleep she reappeared. After that I just cooked myself a cup of coffee and stayed up all night." After she finished Leo sat next to her and slowly comforted her. After a minute of that he said.
"Twilight I think I know what's happening to you." Then she raised her head and looked into Leos eyes. He wiped away her tears and continued. "You still have some residual magic still left in you and I need to teach you how to control it before it controls you again." After that she looked scared.
"I thought that Sunset purged all of the magic out of me. So I'll have to learn how to control it?"
"Yeah that's the long and short of it, but don't worry well get it under control today. What do you say that after school we go to your place and get your magic under control and I can also meet your parents while we are there." He said while having a big grin. While he had that Twilight just had a deadpanned expression on her face.
"Okay we are going to do this, just so that I can get that over it. You just get ready for my brother, because he's a little bit over protective of me."
"Noted. Now lets go to class before we're tardy." After that she jumped up and sped out of the room leaving a dust trail behind her. "I guess she doesn't like to be tardy." With that said he smiled and started to walk towards his first class of the day.
***
After Leos classes finally finished for the day he decided to go to the lunch room and get himself some lunch before he goes to Twilights to get her magic under control. "Man I like math, but cranky just can't make it interesting. I seriously need to figure out how to keep myself awake during those classes or I'm going to end up failing that class. What do you think Bill?" After that he was met with silence. "Looks like hes asleep. Oh well." With that said he entered the lunch room and when he did he was quickly tackled by Pinkie.
"Oh hello Leo I was just looking for you. Here you go." Then she gave him a pink envelope with blue and yellow balloons on it. Then she continued. "Now if excuse me I need to go and prepare for a party." After that she jumped off of him and ran out of the school.
"Okay? That just happened." He said and after he did he got up, opened the letter and started to read it. After he finished he said.
"Well looks like I'm going to a picnic at six in front of the school today. Sweet. A reward right after a horrible ordeal. This day can't get any better." With that he stuffed the letter into his jacket pocket and with a huge smile went into the lunch room to get himself something to eat. After he got everything that he wanted to eat he looked around the lunch room hoping to find a familiar face in the crowd and after a moment he found Twilight sitting alone at a table in the corner of the room. She looked to be asleep. With that done he walked over to her and started to shake her awake. "Twilight wake up." After that she raised her head and started to look around. When she finally spotted Leo she smiled and said.
"Oh hello Leo. What are you doing here?" She said while adjusting her glasses.
"I'm just getting myself a quick lunch before we going to your house to fix your little problem, but well have to go to the hiding spot and tell my aunt to come and pick me up later. Oh yeah before I forget were you invited to pinkies picnic?"
"Yeah I was and I hope that we can finish that off before that." She said. After that Leo took a bite out of his burrito. When he finished he said.
"Don't worry Twilight. We'll finish that long before we have to go the picnic. At least I hope." He said while taking a sip of his juice.
"Okay. I just have one question. Will this hurt? I mean will that little ceremony hurt?" Leo shook his head and said.
"No it's not. Since she seems to be able to speak we can ether trick her into giving you full control or challenge her to a little contest and if that doesn't work then well just have to put the smack down on her. That is probably going to hurt you if we she hits you, but otherwise no." When he finished that explanation off he took another bite from his burrito.
"Oh okay... So how did you deal with your magic?" She asked, After he finished of his bite he answered.
"Well my magic took on the form of a mindless dragon. Dealing with him basically got down to smack dragon away. Dragon breaths fire. I dodge. Rinse and repeat until he stopped attacking. After that I stepped up to him and absorbed him into my body and presto." He said while firing up his magic. "I have magic."
"That sounds like it took allot longer than one day to finish." She said while writing something down on a piece of paper.
"Well from my perspective it took three days to finish that fight, but from the outside it looked like I was peacefully sleeping for three hours." Then he took another sip of his drink while Twilight wrote something down. After some time Leo asked. "What are you writing down?"
"Oh I'm just studying english, because I heard that the professor likes to give pop quizzes there so I'm just reading through and writing down some notes."
"Okay then I'll leave you to it." With that said Leo continued to eat.
***
After Leo finished his lunch and Twilight finished her studying they made there way towards the hiding spot where Leos family picks him up to meet up with midnight. Once there she came out and started to talk. "Hello there Leo are you ready to..." Then she saw Twilight walking behind her and when she did her eyes widened and a huge smile formed on her face. After that she sprang towards twilight and started to hug her.
"Gijah, what is she doing?!" Screamed Twilight. Leo only started to laugh.
"Oh she's just adorable and beautiful, but I guess I can't quite tell if she is beautiful or not being a dragon myself, but if she captured your heart she must be." After that Twilight resigned to her fate said.
"And now she's growling meaning she's ether talking about me or is angry at me and you are not helping Leo." After that Leo slowly stopped laughing and said.
"Okay Midnight please drop her down before she gets mad at me or you." He said while wiping away a tear. After he did Midnight let go of Twilight.
"Sorry there Twilight. I got a bit too exited. I hope that you can forgive me." Said Midnight while also adding her trump card. Her puppy dog eyes.
"Um what is she doing?" She asked.
"She is apologizing for her behavior and she is also using her puppy dog eyes on you." He answered.
"Well she can stop, because it isn't working on me. As for her apology I except it."
"Shout. That usually works on everyone, but I guess it wasn't necessary." After that she turned to Leo. "So are you ready to go?"
"Yeah Midnight there has been a slight change of plans. I'm going to bee spending the day with Twilight. Could you please come and pick me up at around say half past seven." He asked.
"Oh do you have a date. Oh this is just wonderful of course I will if you promise me that you are going to show her a good time." She said while raising her eyebrows in a suggestive manner and having a cheeky grin on her face. Leo then blushed, but still nodded. "Okay then see you at half passed seven." With that she flew off.
"What did she say that made you blush." Asked Twilight.
"I rather not tell." After that she poked him with her elbow and said.
"Come on you can tell me." After that Leo checked his watch and then he said.
"Oh look at the time. It's time to go and catch the bus or else we are going to be late. Okay then lets go." He said in a really quickly voice and walking away.
"I'm going to figure it out sooner or later and you know it." She screamed after him. Leo then only covered his ears. "Man you really do act like a child sometimes." She said under her breath while walking after him. After that she got a mischievous grin, but quickly hid it because Leo looked back at her. When he turned back she again said under her breath. "The bus takes fifteen minutes to get to my house so I will get that answers out of you if you want to or not." She said while still smiling and with that said they arrived at the bus stop.
***
After a grueling fifteen minutes of Twilight asking him what Midnight said to him. When they finally got out of the bus she said. "Oh come on please tell me." He then turned around and asked.
"Are you going to stop asking me when I tell you?" She nodded. "Okay then she said that I should show you a good time. There now you know." She only looked confused.
"Is there something I'm missing here, because I don't get why that had to be a secret." After that it dawned on him.
"Oh yeah you don't know what that means and before you start asking me what that means lets just say that it involves some intimacy." After that she blushed. "Now lets go and meet your family and get your magic under control." After that she stopped blushing and started to lead him through Canterlot towards her house. While going there Twilight decided to give him a small tour pointing out a couple of her favorite places where she hangs out from time to time. Mostly some libraries, book shops and a restaurant that she likes to visit some times and after that they arrived to Twilights house.
"Okay Leo. Now be prepared for my brother, because he's probably going to try and kill you for taking me away or something like that." She said.
"And what about your parents?" Asked Leo while straightening out his shirt.
"Oh they already know about you and they can't wait to meet you. So are you ready?"
"As ready as I'll ever be." And with that said Twilight opened the door to her house.
"Mom! Dad! I'm home and I brought a guest!" With that they both entered the house and when they did they heard Twilights mother say.
"Hello Twilight who is the guest? Is it that boy that you told us about?"
"Yes it's Leo. He came over to help me out with some studying." After that a woman stepped out of what Leo assumed to be the kitchen. She had a gray skin colour and purple and white hair stilled in the same way as twilight. When she took a look at Leo she smiled and stepped over to him. After she did she extended her arm and said.
"Hello Leo. My name is Twilight Velvet, but you can call me Velvet. It's nice to meet you." Leo then shook her hand and said.
"It's nice to meet you as well ms. Velvet." After that they stopped their hand shake and then she asked.
"Well aren't you the polite one, but please just Velvet is good enough." Leo then simply nodded. After that he turned to where Twilight was standing but he didn't find her there.
"Uhm where did Twilight go?"
"She probably went to get her father so that we could start eating. Speaking off, would you like to join us." Asked Velvet. Leo, not wanting to be impolite agreed and when he did she led him to the kitchen where she sat him down next to the table. After about ten minutes Twilight entered the room with a blue skinned man with slightly darker blue coloured hair. When he saw Leo he also smiled and stepped over to him.
"Hello there. You must be Leo. My name is Night Light. It's nice to meet you." He said while extending his hand for a hand shake. Leo shook it and then Night Light sat down in front of him. Twilight sat down next to him and after that Velvet entered the room while carrying a pot. The smell that was coming out of it made Leo water at his mouth. After that she placed it down on the table and started dealing out portions to everyone at the table. When she finished off she said.
"Okay everyone dig in and tell me how it tastes." After that everyone started to eat. When Leo tasted the food he couldn't help himself, but hum in bliss. When he finished he said.
"Velvet this food is delicious. What is this?" Velvet then smiled and answered.
"This is a new recipe that I tried for curry. I hope it's not to spicy." She said.
"No it's just right. Am I right Twilight?" After that he turned to twilight and noticed that she sweating. "Um twilight are you alright?" After that he also looked towards Night Light and sure enough he was also sweating. After that he again turned towards Velvet and asked. "How many peppers did you add to the curry?" She also looked at Twilight and Night light and then she answered.
"I only added six like the recipe suggested, but when I tasted it I didn't taste any spiciness so I added more. Is it to spicy?" After that Twilight ran to the kitchen to probably drink some milk. While Night Light said.
"Only slightly too spicy. Next time try to follow the recipe. Now if you excuse me I'm going to follow my daughter and get this fire in my mouth to stop." With that said he also ran to the kitchen and after about five minutes they returned. In that time Leo and Velvet finished off their food. After Twilight and Night Light sat down Leo asked.
"So do you feel any better now?" They both simply nodded and after that Twilight turned to her mother and asked.
"How come you were able to finish off your curry?"
"Well I guess that I just got used to it from eating my mothers and grandmothers cooking. We always ate something spicy, but I guess I'll have to be a bit more careful from now on." She finished of with a small grin. "How about I make it up to you both by prepare some ice cream for you." She said while going to the kitchen.
"That would be lovely darling. Oh yeah before I forget we are out of milk." Said Night Light. After that she left the room. With nothing else to do Twilight, Night Light started to talk with each other until Velvet finished the ice cream. When she did she also joined in the conversation until the front door opened and a male voice yelled out.
"Mom. Dad. I'm home." He said.
"Were in the kitchen Shining." Yelled Velvet back to him. After that a man entered the room while having a small smile. He had white skin and a two toned blue short cut hair.
When he saw Leo his smile turned into a frown and began to scowl. After that he asked. "Who's he." Asked Shining while pointing at Leo.
"Shining manners! As for who he is. His name is Leo and he is Twilight boyfriend." Said Night Light. After he did Shinings eye twitched and after that he smiled.
"Oh really." He said in a slightly creepy voice that made Leo uncomfortable. After that he walked over to him and extended his hand. "Nice to meet you. My name is Shining Armour." Leo gave him his hand and when he did Shining started to squeeze and shake.
"Same here Shining." Leo also began to squeeze eventually overpowering Shining. After that they let go and shining sat down at the table. He took a portion of the curry and began to eat. After his first bite he began to sweat, but he didn't run to put out the fire. He just continued to eat while occasionally looking at Leo. After some time of that Twilight asked.
"Hey Leo why don't we go to my room so that we can get started on studying?" She finished her question with a strained smile.
"Yeah. Lets go." Said Leo while getting up from the table. Twilight followed suit and after that she grabbed his hand and led him to her room. When they were inside Twilight closed the door and Leo started to wave his hand around in pain.
"Man you were right your brother is really protective and creepy. Did you see how he smiled at me?"
"Yeah, but don't worry when he accepts you you are going to see that he is a real swell guy. So how do we get this started?" After that Leo sat down and crossed his legs.
"Well first we are going to sit down." Twilight then sat down next to him while also crossing her legs. "Then you are going to give me your hand." She also did that and when she touched his hand everything went white.
***Dreamscape***
"And now we are in your mind." She heard Leos voice say. When she opened her eyes she noticed that she was in a large library with bookshelves that she couldn't see the tops off. After she finished checking around she asked.
"Where are we?"
"Well as I said we are inside your mind and if you want to be even more specific we are in your memory warehouse." He said while looking around.
"Memory warehouse? So each one of these books is one of my memories?" she asked while walking over to one of the shelves and checking over some titles.
"Yup, but I doubt that we are going to find Midnight here so lets get out of here and search for her outside." said Leo while walking to a door that said exit. Twilight then quickly followed him out of the warehouse. Once outside they were met with a giant purple void. Twilight quickly realised what this meant and clung to Leos arm. After that Midnight appeared.
"Oh look who we have here my little friend Twilight and oh would you look at that she also brought her boyfriend. Oh this is simply priceless, but he is not going to help you. I am going to take control." And with that she charged at them but was stopped by a giant pie.
"Not so fast Midnight you are not going to get to her that easy." After that a table and chairs appeared in front of Leo and Twilight. They both took their seats and then Leo continued. "Why don't you sit down and enjoy a spot of tea, because we have allot to talk about." he said while making a tea set appear on the table. He poured the tea and took a sip. After that Midnight sat down as well and took a sip.
"Okay then Leo. You have gained my attention. Now please tell me what do you want to talk about."
"Well I'm here to defeat you so that you are going to leave Twilight alone. So I'm here to make a deal with you." She took another sip and asked.
"And what is this deal?"
"It's quite simple you and Twilight are going to compete in a game of my choosing if Twilight wins you leave her alone and let her control you and if you win then you take control of her. How does that sound?" After that Midnight smiled.
"I accept your deal." After that a scroll appeared in front of her.
"If you do then please sign the contract and we can get started." After that Midnight quickly signed the contract without even reading it. When she finished Leo took the scroll and put it in his jacket pocket. "Okay the game of my choice is chess." After that the tea set disappeared and a chess board appeared. "And begin." With that said the chess game began. It started off in Midnights favour, but after a couple of turns Twilight made a comeback and after that it was neck a neck for at least ten minutes, but after that Twilight said that magic word that won her the game.
"Checkmate." She said with a grin.
"What this is impossible. I am you you can't pull one over me. You are not going to control me." Said Midnight while throwing the table to the side and grabbing Twilight around her neck.
"Leo help." Twilight yelled out.
"Don't worry Twilight just tell her to stop." At first she looked at him like he was crazy, but after that she said.
"Midnight I order you to let go of me." After she said Twilight quickly let go of her.
"What? What is the meaning of this why can't I control myself?" Asked Midnight. Leo then only pulled out the contract and waved it around after that her eyes widened. After that Twilight said.
"Now Midnight I order you to disappear and leave me alone." After that Midnight started to glow and turned into a glowing purple and pink cloud. Then it flew towards Twilight and inside of her chest. "is it over?"
"Yeah it is. Now she is not going to bother you anymore." Said Leo while walking over to her. When he got over to her he gave her a hug. "Congratulations Twilight. You just got control over your magic. You wont be able to use it just jet, but you have control. I'm so proud of you." Twilight then reciprocated the hug and said.
"This wouldn't have been possible with out you and again thank you." After that they spread apart. "So ow do we get out of this place?" After that Leo smiled and snapped his fingers. Then a door appeared labeled exit.
"We use the exit door duh." Said Leo with a stupid smile. Twilight giggled and with that they both made their way to the door and opened it and everything went white once again.
***Real world***
When the light disappeared again they were back in Twilights room. Leo took a look at his watch and saw that only one hour has passed. "Well looks like we still have about two hours before we need to head off. How about we use that time to study for a bit."
"Sure why not. What do you want to start off with?" She asked.
"How about we start of with english and after that we do some math." With that said Twilight grabbed the necessary books and they started to study.
***
After those two hours they made their way out of the house and back towards CHS. It was a clam ride Twilight felt allot better knowing that Midnight is going to leave her alone. Leo was just happy, because Twilight was happy. When they finally arrived at their station. They got out of the bus and started to walk towards the statue where all of their friends were all patiently waiting for them on a giant blanket full of food. When they were close enough Leo said. "Hey guys. How has your day been going?"
"Oh you know the usual. I personally was just working on some orders for my clients." Said Rarity.
"I was just finishing up my chores for the day and I'm really happy that I managed to finish them before this picnic." Said Applejack.
"Well if you have to know we were at her house studying for a pop quiz that is supposed to come in the near future. Ain't that right Twilight." After that she stopped blushing and sat down next to him.
"Yeah we were studying." She said.
"Well that doesn't matter now. What matters is that you two are here and are ready to enjoy the best picnic that you are ever going to have." Said Pinkie. With that said they all started to eat and talk amongst themselves. After a couple of minutes Twilight had to go to the bathroom and in that time the statue started to glow and after that another Twilight came out, But this one wasn't wearing glasses and didn't have her hair done up in a bun. When she stopped she started to talk.
"I'm so sorry I didn't get here sooner! I didn't get your messages until just now because I was caught in this time travel loop and, honestly, it was the strangest thing that's ever happened to me!" After she said that Leos Twilight returned and they both saw each other. Then pinkie took a sip of her drink and then Twilight from the portal continued. "Make that the second strangest."
"Well you must be Princess Twilight Sparkle. Well my name is Leo and it's nice to meet you." Said Leo while getting up and extending out his hand for a handshake. Twilight shook it and then she said.
"It's nice to meet you, but who is she?" After that Leo walked over to her, put an arm around her shoulders and answered.
"This is Twilight Sparkle. At least the Twilight from this world and Twilight meet princess Twilight Sparkle." After that he let Twilight to the princess and left them to talk with each other. After that all of their other friends followed and with the portal left unoccupied he walked over to it and started to inspect it. After a minute he found the magical signature and said under his breath. "Well this is interesting. Whoever made this portal knew the complete ins and outs of magic, but I think I can recreate the portal if I copy the magic that is used on it." After that he concentrated and started to copy the magic. When he finished it he tried to open a small portal in his hand and sure enough it opened and when he compared it to the original he found that it was going to lead him to the same dimension. After he closed it he walked over to the his friends and found them still talking with each other.
"So everything turned out to be okay in the end. Well as long as you figured it out." Then princess Twilight turned to Leo and asked.
"Well princess, my magic is a bit different from my other friends. While their magic is pony based mine is more dragon based, which is the reason I don't pony up, but rather dragon up. Flame on." With that Leo morphed into his dragon form. "There is also the reason that I had my magic for at least a year and allot of time to learn how to control it. I guess that after a year Sunset and her friends will also be able to turn into their respective forms at will." With that said Leo turned back to his human form. "Now why don't you join us at the picnic?" At first princess Twilight looked baffled, but then she snapped out of it and said.
"Sure I would love that, but don't think that I am not going to be asking questions." With that said they all sat down and started to eat and talk anew.
***
When they finished their picnic and princess Twilight gave her goodbyes and left returning back to her world. After she left everyone else also said their goodbyes and left for home until only Twilight and Leo were left. When they made sure that they were alone they went back to the spot were Leo gets picked up, but instead of Midnight there stood Amelia playing with her two children Toothless and Sapphire. When she saw Leo and Twilight approaching she stopped playing with the babies and decided to point him out to them. When the two baby dragons saw him they immediately ran towards him and talked him to the ground. After play fighting with them for a bit he picked them up and noticed that Twilight was looking at him with a small smile. "What?" he asked while still holding the two baby dragons.
"Uhm can I hold one?" Asked Twilight. Leo then looked at Amelia who nodded.
"Sure just be careful to not drop him." After that he handed her Toothless. "His name is toothless and the one that I'm holding her name is Sapphire." When she started to hold Toothless he started to sniff at her and after he finished he looked up at her smiled and let out a cute roar.
"Oh aren't you just the cutest little thing." She said while giving him a nuzzle. With that Leo left her to play with toothless and walked over to Amelia.
"Hey why isn't midnight here to pick me up?" Asked Leo.
"She felt a bit sickly so she asked me to go instead and besides after she told me what your new mate looked like I just had to see her for myself." Answered Amelia. After that they heard a small thud and when they turned to look at it they saw Toothless standing on top of Twilight licking at her face. "It seems that Toothless likes her."
"Yeah I guess he does." After that Amelia told the babies to climb on her back and they of course obeyed. After that Leo also climbed up on her while Twilight walked over to them. When she got to them she said.
"Leo before you go would you mind if we went on a date two days from today. Just you and me." She said with a small blush.
"Sure Twilight I'll get everything set up tomorrow and then I'll tell you where we are going. See you tomorrow." He said with a huge smile.
"Okay then see you tomorrow." With that said Amelia took off and when he was out of her sight Twilight also started to go towards home.

***Dreamscape***
Leo was currently in the dreamscape playing around with the magic portal that he learned how to cast the previous day. He was trying to see what other dimensions he could open and writing down all of the frequencies that led to interesting dimensions. After about two hours of him playing around with them he has written down at least fifteen different frequencies. After he wrote the last one down he sent the paper to the memory warehouse and said. "I wonder where Bill is. He usually appears by now to show me some new magic. Might as well check over the spells that I already know." With that said he got up and summoned a book from the memory warehouse, which contained all of the spells that he learned and started on checking over them.
After another hour of him practicing his spells he again checks the dreamscape for Bill and he again didn't find him. "Okay now I'm getting worried about him. Where is he?" With that said he started to walk around his dreamscape to hopefully find him sleeping under a rock or something. With how weird he acts sometimes it wouldn't be too weird. So with that in mind he wanted to start his search for him, but was interrupted by a huge earthquake hitting him. It was so powerful that it cracked the whole world, meaning that he was started to wake up. "Oh well, I guess I'll search for him tonight. Beam me up Scotty." He said while pointing towards the sky. With that said the dreamscape exploded and he started to wake up.
***Real world***
When Leo woke up he was met with the cutest pictures that he could ever see. It was Toothless and Sapphire both nudging him with their heads, but when they saw that he woke up they both jumped on his chest and started to lick him. Leo started to laugh. "Okay, okay you two I'm up, I'm up." After that they both stopped there attack on him and started to smile. When Leo wiped himself on he got up in a sitting position. After that he said. "You know you two are going to get a visit from the tickle monster, because you woke me up this early." After that their faces turned into those of confusion. Leo then raised both of his hands and had the evilest grin that he could muster. After that it clicked in their heads and they both wanted to flee, but sadly they were to late, because Leo grabbed them both, pinned them down and started to tickle them. They were squirming like a couple of worms and after two minutes he stopped. "Did you two learn your lessons?" He said while letting go of them. After they caught their breaths they both nodded. "Okay then you two. You go to uncle Zyon and play with him for a bit so that I can get dressed." With that said they both left his bedroom and let him get dressed. After he got dressed he left his room and entered the kitchen area, but before he entered he heard the last pieces of a conversation between Midnight and Zyon.
"Do we really have to do it. I mean he is a human so maybe the traditions don't apply to him." Said Midnight in a slightly worried tone. Leo then quickly hid behind a wall and continued to listen.
"Look midnight I see that you don't want to let your little baby go, but you have to realize that he is a human and that we are dragons. Humans age a little bit different than we do. So we need to let him go and enjoy life among his own kind." Said Zyon.
"But there is still so much that I want to do with him. I just can't." Said Midnight sounding like she was on the verge of crying.
"Please don't start crying, because you know full well that he needs to spread his wings." But Midnight wasn't listening any more, because she was now full on crying. Since she was now crying Zyon then stepped up to her and hugged her while slowly stroking her head. After that Leo had enough and walked over to them and also hugged his mother. At first she was surprised and when she looked she asked.
"Leo how much of that did you hear?" She asked while wiping the tears away from her eyes.
"Only the last bit about me leaving, but don't worry if I am going to leave one of these days then I'm going to make sure to visit you whenever I do move out and if I can't come to you then you are going to be able to visit me whenever I have time." After that he stopped hugging her and continued. "Now please stop crying." After that Midnight smiled and hugged Leo.
"Thank you Leo." With that done Sapphire and Toothless thought that they were being ignored so they decided to make themselves known by roaring. After that everyone in the room looked a them. Then they pointed to their stomachs and after that a light bulb appeared above her head and she said. "Oh sorry there little ones let me get breakfast ready." With that said she let go of Leo and she walked into the kitchen and started preparing breakfast. Then Zyon walked up to Leo and handed him a bag.
"Uhm what's this?" Asked Leo while holding the bag.
"Well since you are going on a date I decided to give you your first allowance. Just make sure that you exchange it for their currency, because I made that mistake and let's just say one diamond was able to pay for your whole education three times over." He said while scratching the back of his head. Then Leo looked inside again and sure enough there were gems inside. Leo was a little bit surprised by the amount of them that were inside.
"Okay that is quite allot of gems for one date." Said Leo while putting the bag inside his backpack.
"Yeah I know, but I still want you to find a house in the city so that you are ready to move out when you are ready." He said. After that Leo looked up and said.
"Okay I will, but I am not going to move out just jet."
"I understand." He said while raising one of his claws. After that he put it back on the ground and smiled. "Now lets go and eat our breakfast before Sapphire and Toothless eat it all." With that they started to move to the table. On the way something struck Leo.
"Why are they here? Is something wrong with Amelia and Axel?"
"No no. They just left them here so that they can go and stock up on some food." Answered Zyon. After that they both sat down and waited for Midnight to bring them breakfast.
***
After breakfast Zyon flied Leo to school. Once they said their goodbyes and then he started walking towards the library. On the way he was thinking about what he needed to do that afternoon. He was so far in thought that he didn't notice Rarity walking by so he accidentally bumped into her. "Oh excuse me I didn't see you there." Said Leo. After that he looked at the person that he bumped into and said. "Oh hello there Rarity."
"Hello to you two Leo. Why were you so deep in thought that you weren't paying any attention?" She said while straitening out her dress.
"Oh it's just that I have a couple of things..." Then he got an idea. "Actually I think you can help me with this. Can we go somewhere a bit more private." Asked Leo.
"Um sure lets go to the rec room." With that said they both started to walk towards the aforementioned rec room. Once there they both sat down and Rarity continued. "Okay then Leo. What do you need me for?"
"Well I need your help to set up a bank account." He said. At that she looked confused.
"Whatever do you need it for?" With that he went to thinking. Should he tell her the truth or should he lie, because he knew she was going to go full diva about it so instead he decided to tell her the half truth.
"I'm planing on getting myself an apartment in Canterlot and with you running a store I was thinking that you knew how that has to be done."
"Oh okay darling. I will help you out. Meet me after school at the bus stop and after that we can get that sorted out." She said.
"Okay I will see you there." With that said they both left the room.
"Alright with that done I should do some research so that I don't get scammed." With that said he walked to the library and once there he started doing his research.
***
When lunch time finally came around Leo made his way to the lunch room and got himself something to eat. When he finally had everything that he wanted to eat he found a seat and dug in while also looking over the notes that he made. After about five minutes of him doing that he heard a familiar voice ask. "Hey there Leo what are you doing?" And that voice belonged to Sunset.
"Oh hello there Sunset. I'm just doing some math." He said. After that she sat down opposite of him.
"And why are you doing math?"
"Well I'm trying to sell something and I'm doing research so that I don't get scammed and speaking of that." He said while adding the final underline. "I'm done." After that he put everything away.
"What are you trying to sell and why are you so concerned about being scammed?"
"You probably wont believe me, but I'm trying to sell some gems." At that she looked completely shocked and after a minute of that she started to laugh. After that he simply pulled out a bag and put it in front of her. Then she stopped and looked inside and then she said.
"Wow you weren't kidding. When you sell this you are going to be completely loaded. Why do you need so much money?"
"Yes I know, but my dad heard about my date so he gave me these to sell and he also wanted me to get a house or apartment in Canterlot." He answered while putting the bag back into the backpack.
"But why give you so much?" She asked.
"Well he's just being overbearing and it's not like I'm going to spend it all or let it go to my head."
"We'll see about that." She said while rolling her eyes.
"Oh are you issuing a challenge there." Said Leo with a smug smirk. Sunset then reciprocated it and said.
"Yes I am. I bet that you are going to go money crazy within the week."
"Okay then Sunset if you win then I'm going to wear a dress for an entire week and if I win then you are going to wear that same dress for a week. Do we have a deal?" He asked while extending his hand. She did the same and then they shook while Leo silently added a little spell so that she stands true to it.
"We have a deal. I can't wait to see you fail." She said.
"We'll see about that." He said with a confident smirk. After that they continued to chat for the remainder of the lunch break.
***
After he finished off his lunch break and after saying goodbye to Sunset he went to the bus stop in front of the school and as she said Rarity was there waiting. "Hello there Rarity. I hope I didn't make you wait to long."
"No it's okay. I wasn't waiting that long and you came right on time because there is the bus to Canterlot." She said while she pointed to a yellow bus. It stopped in front of them and after it did they entered. When they took their seats Leo asked.
"So how long do you think this is going to take?"
"Oh not long at all. The bank that we are going to is pretty snappy when it comes to setting anything up." She answered to him.
"Okay then and again thank you for helping me out with this." Said Leo. After that she smiled and continued.
"And again don't mention it." After that they continued to chat for the rest of the drive. When they finally arrived at Canterlot they got out of the bus and started to walk towards Rarities bank. Once they arrived there they entered the building and stepped up to a bored looking woman sitting behind a counter, but when she saw us heading towards her counter she quickly got a big smile. After that Rarity said. "Hello there miss. Could you please open up an account for my friend over here." She finished off with a smile.
"Of course." Said the woman. After that she rummaged behind the counter and after a minute of that she handed Leo a small stack of papers. "I need you to fill out those forms and after that your bank account will be open lickety split."
"Thank you." Said Leo and after that he and Rarity went to an empty table and started on filling out the form. The process was pretty straight forward. The only time that it was a little complicated was when he had to chose the package that he wanted to use. That is when he asked Rarity for a little help. After they finally finished they brought the filled out form back to the woman.
"Okay lets see here." She said while looking through all the papers. When she finished reading she continued. "Okay then everything looks okay here let me just enter this information into the computer and after that I'll give your credit card." With that said she went to work on doing just that. And when she finished that she gave him the card and said. "Okay then here you go and please do come back if there is a problem." With that said they both left the bank.
"Okay then Leo. Now I need to go back to the boutique and catch up on my order. See you tomorrow." She said while she walked towards the bus stop.
"Alright then see you tomorrow." Said Leo. After that he turned around and started to search for the jewellery that he researched on the internet. "Lets see down this road and ah there it is." He said when he finally found the store. It wasn't anything to special. It was a regular white coloured store with a big diamond on the glass window. "Well lets get this done." With that said he entered the store. Once inside he saw a pink skinned woman with purple hair and wearing a gold necklace.
After she saw him she said "Hello there and welcome to Riches gems. My name is Spoiled Rich how may I help you?"
"Hello there miss Rich. I'm here to sell a couple of gems that my dad has gave to me." Said Leo.
"Oh okay then let's see what you have and then well talk about the price from there." She said. With that done Leo them reached into his back pack and pulled out the bag with gems and gave it to her. After that she looked at them and when she did she said. "Wow that is quite allot of gems." Then she spread them out on the table and started to take a closer look at them. When she finished with that Leo asked.
"So how much are they worth?"
"Well they are all authentic and they are all expertly cut and extremely clear so If I had to estimate I would say about five million dollars." That didn't surprise him to much since that is what he calculated before he entered the store. "Okay since you want to sell them and the amount of money that I need to give to you I need to ask you if you have a credit card?"
"Yes I do." He said while handing it to her. After that she handed him a machine into which he put the card and then he put his code afterwards. When he did that she charged the card with the money and after that she handed the card along with a receipt.
"Thank you and please do come again." She said and with that he left the store and went to exploring Canterlot.
***
After his little exploration his backpack was a little heavier. He bought two things one of them being a laptop and the other being a smart phone.
He also planed out his date with Twilight which is going to be awesome, at least so he thought, but that is not what he was currently thinking about. He was currently on the phone looking for where he could find a decent apartment. After some time of searching he found one and said. "Ah here we have a good deal for a four star apartment just on the edge of town. Well this is the last thing on my list of things to do for the day might as well finish this off." With that said he turned into an alleyway, turned into his dragon form and flew off towards the place where they were selling the apartment. When he arrived he found a secluded place and turned back to normal. Then he walked up to the apartment complex and rang on the belle that was labeled Land Lord and waited. After about two minutes the door opened to reveal a very large and muscular man. He had black hair and yellow hair with a goatee on his face. When he noticed Leo he said.
"Hello there are you here to buy the apartment?" He asked in a slightly deep voice.
"As a matter of fact I am. Hi my name is Leo." He said while extending his hand. After that the man smiled and shook it.
"Well it's nice to meet you Leo. My name is Land Lord." After that he stopped shaking his hand and continued. "You probably want to see the apartment so why don't you follow me and then we can talk about the price. Which I am willing to drop if you give me a reasonable deal." With that said he led Leo to the apartment. When they arrived Land Lord opened the door and they stepped inside and what Leo saw was amazing.
After he took a quick look around he said. "Wow this place looks awesome, but can I ask why are you selling it?"
"Well the previous person who lived here just moved telling me that there was something about getting a better job in a different city, but that is all I know." While Land Lord said that Leo looked through the rest of the apartment and when he finished he went back to Land Lord and said.
"Okay Land Lord I like what I see here and since I didn't find any problems I'm wiling to pay the whole price." Said Leo.
"Are you sure? Don't get me wrong, but usually people try to cut the price down at least by a thousand dollars." Said Land Lord.
"Yeah except if you are not telling me something." Said Leo while having a small grin.
"No everything is fully functional. Okay then if you want to pay full price lets go to my place and we can finish our deal there." With that said they left the room and went to his to finish off the deal.
***
"Okay then Leo I'll see you in a couple of days." Said Land lord while waving goodbye to Leo.
"Yeah I'll see you then." Leo said back and then he turned around and started walking towards his last destination of the day and that is Twilights house. With that in mind he quickly made his way towards her house. When he arrived he rang the doorbell and waited for someone to open the door and who should open it, but Shining Armour and when he saw Leo he quickly closed the door on his face. "Ouch." Said Leo while massaging his nose. After that he heard a muffled conversation and then the door opened again this time revealing Twilight.
"Oh hello Leo. What brings you around here?" She asked.
"Well it certainly wasn't to get my nose broken, but enough about that. I'm actually here to tell you that I have planed our date for tomorrow."
"Yeah sorry about that. So where are we going?" She asked in a slightly excited tone.
"Ah ah Twilight. That is going to be a surprise, but the only thing that I am going to tell you is that I am going to pick you up at seven." He said with a smug smirk. After that she only pouted, but she quickly put on a smile.
"Okay Leo. I'll play along as long as it's going to be fun." She said.
"Yeah it is. At least I hope." Said Leo while scratching the back of his neck.
"Hey Leo you want to join us for dinner?" She asked.
"Sorry Twilight, but I need to get home and help babysit the little ones, but I'll be sure to see you tomorrow."
"Okay then I'll see you tomorrow." She said. After she did Leo turned into his dragon mode and flew off towards his home confident that he is going to show her the best time that he can.
It was midnight at the cove and a certain human has just got back from his date. When he entered the house he was quickly confronted by his mother who had the biggest smile on herself, but when she saw him covered in ash her smile quickly disappeared and then she asked the million dollar question.
"So Leo how did your date go?" She asked in a slightly nervous tone of voice. At first, he just looked at her with a slightly sad expression, but then it turned into a smile.
"Well, besides the last part of the night literally blowing up in my face, it was actually pretty good." He said while walking to the kitchen to get himself cleaned up. When he finished that he sat down at the table and continued. "I'm sure you are just dying to find out what happened so I suggest you sit down and I'll tell you everything." With that Midnight sat down behind the table and then Leo started his story.
***Flashback***
Leo was just walking up to Twilights house wearing his best outfit, which consisted of his usual attire of blue jeans, a red shirt and a black jacket, and he was also carrying a single red rose. When he finally got to the door, he rang the doorbell and waited. After about twenty seconds the door finally opened up to reveal Twilight, wearing a beautiful black dress which reached down to her knees. Her hair was left down and she was wearing her trademark glasses. After Leo finished checking her out he finally snapped out of it and said.
"Wow. Twilight you look amazing. I kinda feel underdressed now." He said while scratching the back of his neck. Twilight only blushed.
"Well, you don't need to worry about that because you look amazing as well." She said. Then she stepped up to him and kissed him on his cheek after that she noticed the rose and said. "Wow is that for me." After she said that he snapped out of it and got his act together. He presented her the rose and said.
"Yes, this is for you. Just a little something to remember this night by." After that, she took the rose smelled it and after that, she placed it in her hair after that she asked.
"So what do you have planned for us tonight." She said while closing the door behind her. After that Leo spoke.
"Well, first I was planning to escape your brothers death stare, but since he isn't here I guess we can move along to our first activity of the night a nice movie after that we are going to a nice dinner at the Big Emerald and after that we are going on a nice nightly walk to a little surprise that I set up..." But he didn't get to finish that because he was interrupted by Twilight saying.
"Wait wait wait. Did you say that we are going to have dinner at the Big Emerald? As in the best and most expensive restaurant in Canterlot?" Leo simply nodded and after that Twilight squealed in delight and then she said in a really excited voice. "I always wanted to visit that place, but how did you manage to afford it?" She asked in a slightly more subdued voice.
"Well, let's just say that my dad helped me with that and leave it at that." He finished with a grin. "Now how about we get this night started I think we both want to go somewhere else besides your front yard." After that Twilight had a little bit of a blush when she realised that they were still in front of her home. Then Leo extended his hand and Twilight hooked hers around it and they both made their way to the cinema.
***
After the movie which was an epic adventure/comedy about the Power Ponies and their fight against Long Face as he tried to take over Maretropolis.
The story also surprisingly enough centred around Humdrum, who was the one who took down the criminal this time by simply outsmarting the villain, but enough about that let's get back to Leo and Twilight. They were currently walking towards the restaurant simply talking about the movie that they just saw and after about five minutes of walking and talking they finally arrived at the Big Emerald. With that, they both walked up to the waiter behind a counter and then Leo said.
"Good evening My name is Leo and I believe that I have a reservation for two." He said in a slightly British accent. After that, the waiter flipped through the pages of a book that he had I front of him and after a few seconds he finally found his name and asked them to follow him to their table. After that, he handed them their menus and said.
"Here are your menus and when you are ready to order please do signal so that we may take your order." With that said he left them to their own devices. With that, they both opened their menus and started to look for something that they wanted to eat. After a minute of cross-referencing ideas, they finally settled on two pasta salads with dressing on the side and some fine apple cider to drink. After that, they signalled for a waiter who then took their orders and went to do his own thing.
"So Twilight are you enjoying your date?" Asked Leo in a slightly worried tone of voice.
"Yes, I am. It has been simply wonderful thus far and I can't wait for the surprise that you have for me at the end. Can I perhaps get a hint to what it is?" She asked while also putting on her best puppy dog eyes. They were allot for Leo, but he managed to break through them.
"No, I will not tell you, because with your smarts you'll be able to figure it out even with the smallest of hints that I give. You'll just have to wait for it." He finished off with a smirk. After that Twilight went into a slight huff, but when she registered what he said she again smiled with a slight blush on her face. After that, the waiter returned with their orders and after that, they started to eat and chat about some other things. Once they finished their meals and when Leo paid for it, they made their way towards the park and towards Leos surprise for Twilight. When they finally reached the place, which was a hill under the starry night.
"Wow Leo this place is wonderful, but I can see that this is not a surprise so what is it?" Asked Twilight. After That Leo simply sat down next to a bush and patted the ground next to him signalling to Twilight that she should sit down next to him. When she did Leo reached into the bush and pulled out a fuse.
"Well, Twilight if you would look towards the sky then you are going to see it soon enough." He said while igniting the string and patiently waiting for the fuse to hit its target and when it did there was a whistling sound and after that a giant explosion which turned into a colourful ball of gas and light. After a minute of watching that Twilight turned to Leo kissed him on the cheek said.
"Wow, Leo our very own fireworks show this is simply amazing and you made such complex shapes with them how did you manage that." She asked after one that was shaped like a dog flew up into the sky.
"Well it was a combination of powder management and a slight bit of magic, but the results are simply breathtaking if I do say so myself." With that, they continued to watch the spectacle for another ten minutes. After that, the finale began, but Leo quickly noticed that something was wrong because they weren't aligned as they were supposed to be after that some of the rockets started to fly towards so Leo quickly took action and breath fire at the incoming rockets and which then exploded into his face covering him in ash. After that Twilight ran up to him and asked.
"Leo are you okay?!"
"Yes I'm good, but I think I should be asking you that." He said while dusting himself off.
"Yeah, I'm good. So does that finish off your surprise?" Asked Twilight while helping him dust off a bit.
"Yes that was the surprise, but the finale was not supposed to look like that it was supposed to show us holding each other and waving towards us. I guess I didn't secure the rockets good enough so that caused them to fly towards us." He Finished off with an awkward smile.
"Well that would be lovely to see, but I guess mistakes happen we are only human. So is there anything else you planned for us tonight?" She asked.
"No, I don't." He simply stated. "But I guess if you want to do anything then we can do that." After that, she looked like she was thinking about something and after a minute she said.
"Yes you could walk me towards my home and you hold me the entire time." Leo then simply smiled and extended his arm for her to hook hers around and after that, they walked towards her home.
***Flashback end***
"After that, I walked her to her house we kissed and then I flew home and now we are here me telling you the story of what happened. Now if you excuse me I need to get some shuteye because I'm very tired." With that said, Leo went to his room to get some rest and to hopefully find out where Bill is located.
"Well okay, then good night." Said Midnight.
"Goodnight." Said Leo and after that, he got ready to go to sleep.
***Dreamscape***
"Let's see I checked my subcounces I checked my memory warehouse and I checked the imagination corner the only place left to check would be the dark room and I really doubt that he is hiding there." With that said, Leo started to walk towards the dark room. That place wasn't anything too special because it was basically there to delete memories and some random stuff that was not important. When he finally got to that door he found something peculiar. It was a note. "Well, what could that be?" After he said that he took the note of off the door and started to read the message.
Dear Dragon boy,
I'm sorry that I didn't tell that I was leaving, but if you are reading this message then I guess I'll explain this now. Well, I found a way to return back to my original dimension. I'm sorry that I didn't tell you sooner, but I hope we can meet up sometime in the future.
Your friend and teacher.
Bill Cipher.
After he finished reading the letter he put in one of his pockets and said. "Well, that at least explains where he is... What to do now..." After that, he was in thought for a short while and then he snapped his fingers because he got an idea. "Well, I could set up the shooting range and fire at some targets. Yup, I'll go and do that." With that, he teleported to his imagination room and was practising his spells for the rest of the night.
***Real world***
The Next morning Leo was woken up by Zyon jumping on his bed launching him out of his bed and straight onto his back. "Goodmorning Leo. How are you feeling?" Asked Zyon.
"like I didn't get enough sleep, but that is nothing a good meal won't fix. So what are we having for breakfast?" Asked Leo while climbing down from Zyons back and walking to his chair.
"Well Yesterday, when you were at school me and Zyon, flew down to the beach and we hunted down a couple of lobsters and now we are having them for breakfast." Said Midnight while bringing the aforementioned lobsters to the table. When Leo finished looking over his food. After he finished that he asked.
"Wow, what's the occasion?" After he asked that Zyon and Midnight sat down and when they did Midnight answered.
"Well, I was thinking of treating us to something a bit different so enjoy."
"Are you sure this has nothing to do with the date that I had yesterday." Asked Leo with a knowing grin. Midnight simply nodded and after that, they all returned to eating their breakfasts. After they all finished their breakfasts and Leo got dressed Zyon asked him.
"So Leo what are you planning on doing today since you have no school."
"I was planning on visiting Equestria to see what's going on there and to see one of my friends there." Leo simply answered.
"And how long are you going to be staying there?" Asked Midnight in a slightly worried tone of voice.
"Eh, about three days just enough time to see my friends and to get to know them for a bit and don't worry I'm not going to stay there any longer than that." After that Midnight released a sigh of relief and walked over to Leo and hugged him.
"Okay, then Leo just be safe and don't get in trouble or you are getting grounded mister." She finished off in a stern voice.
"Yeah, I won't. Now if you excuse me I'm going to go and find a safe location to open a portal at. See you in three days." With that Leo went deep into the forest to find a place to open a portal at. After about ten minutes of walking, he found it and started to concentrate on his spell. When he finished all of the components the portal finally opened in front of him and with nothing else stopping him he entered it and was flung into a swirling vortex of different colours.
***Equestria: Twilights castle***
Equestria was having one of its stereotypical beautiful days and Twilight was reorganising her library with her friends. They were nearing the completion of said task when the portal to Canterlot high started acting up. None of the friends noticed it at the start but after some time the book that is used to turn it on started to float in the air and flying towards the portal. It was at that point when they all noticed the portal slowly turning on. "What the? What's going on Twilight why is the portal acting up?" Asked Rainbow.
"I don't know but whatever is going on it can't be good." After that, the book found its rightful place and then the portal turned on. When that happened they all waited for something to happen and after two minutes of nothing happening Rarity decided to speak up.
"Um was something supposed to happen?" And right when she finished saying that a body was shot out of the portal and straight into the opposite wall where its head promptly got embedded and got stuck. After that, the portal turned off and everyone was staring at the now unconscious new arrival.
***Deep within the pacific ocean***
"Okay, let's see where this giant lizard lives." Bill was currently swimming through the ocean searching for something and that something is a giant cave. After a couple of minutes of searching, he pulled out a map and started muttering to himself.
"Okay, I made a right at the coral reef turned left at the downed world war two aeroplane then I should be right in front of... There it is." And sure enough he was in front of a one-hundred story cave. He then picked up a rock and threw it inside at the sleeping creature that was inside. After three more rocks the creature finally started to stir and opened its giant red eyes.
"Hello there friend, you want to help me take over this dimension." The red eyes then lunged forward trying to bite at the annoying yellow dorito. "Woah there. Save that for the humans. Now, let's go." With that he snapped his fingers and the creatures left eye turned into Bills eye and after that, the creature released a roar.
