VI. A Guardian's Invitation...and Preparations

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

As Alex talked about his world and his friends, Rarity and Fluttershy were fascinated with every single word.

“Chris is the only Human in Gateway?” Rarity asks.

“Yep.”

“He’s also married to a Fox-like Girl?” Fluttershy asks.

“Yep…basically she looks like a human…but with the ears and tail of a fox.”

“They have a daughter as well?” Rarity asks.

“Yep…Emily, that little fox….actually I might have something in my case.” Alex says.

He looks through his Guitar case with all the zip-up pockets and he pulls out a picture of him and the family. Rarity and Fluttershy both look at the picture, they all seemed really happy…Chris and his wife, both arms around each other along with Alex crouched and an arm around Emily, whom she had him in a hug.

“Sam was taking the picture, we insisted him to put it on counter…but he said he’d be taking up the view of the beautiful background.” Alex said as he chuckled.

“Wow…you seem very happy.” Fluttershy says.

“They’re like my family…something I could never have.” Alex says.

Rarity and Fluttershy both look up in confusion.

“I don’t want to bring a child who will have the high possibility of becoming like me…a Lycan…I don’t want that for him…I want him to be normal…and happy.” Alex says.

“If he does become like you though…wouldn’t that mean he would become a Guardian?” Rarity asks.

“As well as become immortal? Yes, which is the other reason why.”

A little while later as Alex strummed his Guitar…Fluttershy was laying down on his knees.

“Alright, all finished!” Rarity says.

“With what?” Alex asks.

“With your Clothes silly.” Rarity says.

Alex’s eyes open wide.

“Wait…already?!” Alex exclaims.

“I’ve been doing this for years darling…this is my specialty…but I must ask…why a Black Hoodie? I can understand the Fedora but…why?”

“It’s casual…I don’t go somewhere important every day of my life…even the vest and tie is sometimes causal.” Alex says.

“I see…and I got the undergarments done as well.” Rarity says.

“Great…thanks.” Alex says.

“Here…try this on.” Rarity says as she holds up a white shirt, Alex gladly puts it on, now covering his bare body.

“Great…now can you…”

“Rares, I know you just want to stare at my body for a while longer.” Alex says.

“Darn it.” Rarity says.

Rarity then grabs the finished Black Hoodie with white strings to tighten the hood if he so pleased. Alex then puts it on and zips it up as well, he then looks at a mirror to see how he looked.

“Heh, I look just like I do back in Gateway.” Alex says.

Just then, Twilight walks in with a smile on her face, “Oh wow, didn’t think Alex and Fluttershy wouldn’t be here.” Twilight says as she smiles.

“I needed new clothes.” Alex said as he smiled.

“Anyway, I got tickets to tonight’s Grand Galloping Gala!” Twilight says.

“Ooh yes! They’ve certainly have gotten better since the first time.” Rarity says.

“Yep, and I have one for Alex as well.” Twilight says as she pulls out an extra ticket.

“Wait really?” Alex says as he had some small excitement.

“Yep!” Twilight replies.

“This is great!” Alex says.

Alex then whispers something into Rarity’s ear, Rarity answers with a thumbs up and a wink.

“How long do we have until we go?” Alex asks.

“Well it’s in Canterlot and we’re also staying at the castle as a treatment from the two sisters…so…about an hour.” Twilight says.

“This should be fun.” Alex says.

“Didn’t think you’d be so excited about it.” Fluttershy says.

“Why wouldn’t I be? Back in Gateway we had town parties…all Guardians and Citizens would be there…all types of music and dancing…It’s an amazing experience as sometimes I would perform as well.” Alex says.

“Maybe you can ask Princess Celestia if you can perform at the Gala tonight.” Rarity then says

“Maybe…” Alex says as he thinks.

What would I sing is the question…

“Just to clarify, a Gala is basically a classy type of calm party?” Alex asks.

“Yep…but Celestia finds it boring so she changes it up at some points.” Twilight answers

“Ah…good…wait a second…since it’s at the castle…how many rich snobs will there be?” Alex asks as his tone changes.

“Probably a lot…sadly.” Twilight answers.

“Well…I’ve learned to ignore people…or ponies like that since they think their opinions are higher and such…as long as they don’t want to trouble me then I’ll be happy.” Alex says.

Twilight with a small hint of worry, smiles and puts a thumbs up.

-1 Hour Later-

The Mane Six and Alex were boarding the Friendship Express on its way to Canterlot.

As all found their dorms and such as well as the living room-type area, they all made themselves comfortable.

“Hey Twilight, you think I can send a letter to Princess Celestia?” Alex asks.

“Sure!” Twilight says as her horn lights up and a scroll appears with a Quill as well.

“Hm…haven’t written with a Quill in a while.” Alex says as he takes the paper and quill.

“Give it to Spike when you’re done.” Twilight says.

“Spike?”

“Oh yeah, that’s right! You haven’t met him yet.” Twilight says.

“Hi!”

Alex looks on the left side of him to see a Purple and Green-Scaled Dragon, who seemed he was still a Child.

“Well hey there little Dragon, I’m Alex.” He says as he smiles.

Holy shit…a Child Dragon…never thought I’d see the day.

“I’m Spike, Twilight’s Number One Assistant!” He replies.

Alex offers a fist bump, “Well Spike, I think me and you will be good friends.”

Spike returns the bump and smiles.

“Now…where was I? Oh yeah, the letter.” Alex writes down his letter to Celestia with ease as he smiles.

“Alright done.”

Spike takes the letter and wraps it up, “Great, this will only be a minute.” Spike breathes fire on the letter as it disappears from existence.

“Whoa…what the…”

“I can send letters to anyone’s way thanks to Twilight’s Magic when she hatched my egg.” Spike says.

“Ah…nice.”

Just then Spike burps and a letter poofs up, Alex opens his eyes wide from the magic...it was fascinating.

“From Celestia.” Spike says as he holds up the scroll.

“Snap…that was quick.” Alex says, he then takes the scroll and he reads it.

“Well…I must setup for the Gala…I will be in my dorm.”

“Alright, bye Alex!” Twilight says.

Alex walks in his dorm to see the bed war near the ceiling and next to a window, while below was a clothes hanger and bag holder, on the side of the bed was a sink and a mirror. Alex climbs up to the bed as he grabs his Guitar Case, “If I’m Right…I still had my music player as well as my notes.” Alex says.

Alex opens up the case to look through the pockets, he then finds his Phone and his booklet along with some earbuds, “Yes…hell yes," Alex says as he smiles. He then sees his phone was at low battery, “Damn…wait…this place is magic…probably more than Gateway.” Alex says, he quickly exits his dorm to see right where Twilight was, reading.

“Hey Twilight.”

“Yes Alex?”

Alex holds out his Phone, “You think you can use Magical Energy to charge this up?”

Twilight looks at the phone with confusion, “What is that?” she asks

“Well to put it shortly…I can talk to people with this as well as take pictures and listen to music on this…but the battery is low so I just thought you could help me.”

Twilight’s eyes widen with fascination, “Wow…that’s amazing…can I see?”

“Sure, but don’t take it apart or anything.”

Twilight presses the button on the top of the phone which then the screen pops up and a label said ‘Pull the ring to unlock’

“Amazing," She unlocks the phone to see a picture of himself and a small fox child, “Is this a picture? I see you and…a child with fox ears.”

“That’s Emily…my niece…kinda.” Alex says.

Then a prompt pops up that says ‘Battery Low, charger required.’

“Oh I see now, don’t worry I got this.” Twilight says, her horn then glows as she sends energy towards the phone.

The Screen then shows the Battery’s Power going up to 100%

“Wow, thanks Twilight.” Alex says as he was about to take the phone.

“Wait! Can’t I look at it a little bit longer?” Twilight asks with sad eyes.

“Not gonna work Twilight, I need it to get ready for the Gala.”

“Awww….okay.” Twilight says as she gives the phone back.

“Thanks…hey maybe later.” Alex says as he smiles.

He then walks back into his dorm, “Alright…what to play…what to play.” Alex says as he looks through his music list and booklet. Alex grabs his Guitar as he strums a few different song intros.

“I have lots that could feel classy and such," Alex says...he then thinks to himself, “I wonder if Electric Guitars exist here,” Alex says as he smiles deviously. Alex then puts on the earbuds and starts listening to different songs, he writes down in his booklet, notes and lyrics, “Why not…two?” Alex said to himself. He then strums notes to a joyful-like song.

“So this is what you meant…when you said that you were spent.” Alex continues to sing the lyrics to himself as he plays the notes

I better ask Spike for more scrolls.

At least a couple hours went by as the train was peering to it’s destination.

“Hey uh…Alex…we’re getting close--“

The Mane Six all look to see the Guardian blacked out with his earbuds in and his Guitar and Case beside him.

“Aw…he looks so peaceful.” Fluttershy says.

“Yep.” Rarity replies.

One of Alex’s earbuds were off as the music playing from it was heard, Rarity goes up to the bed to hear the music, she listens and her head starts to move to it, “That is a nice rhythm.” Rarity says.

Alex then groans and starts to move around, Rarity notices this and gets down from the ladder that goes up to the bed.

“Alex, time to get up…we’ll be gettin’ close to Canterlot.” Applejack says.

Alex groans as it sounded like he was complain.

“Darling you’ll need the time to do your hair since you fell asleep.” Rarity says.

This was true, Alex is a bedhead in which his hair will be a mess when he raises his head from a pillow, “Five more minutes girls…” Alex moans as he then grabs the covers.

Rainbow Dash then decides to motivate him to wake up, she climbs up the ladder, and puts one of her wings to his nose and wiggles it. Alex wiggles his nose around as it started to tickle him, then his entire body shudders and shakes. Alex then chuckles as he starts to get up, he then playfully shoves Dash’s wing away from his face as he sits up straight, “Alright fine, you girls win.” Alex says as he looks at them and chuckles.

Alex gets down from the bed and looks at the mirror, “Shoot…anypony got a comb? Hey I said it right that time.” Alex says as he chuckles again.

Rarity then gives him a comb so he could fix his hair, Alex carefully combs and straightens his hair and messes with it a little with his hands to see if it was sturdy and looked good, “Alright…there we go.” Twilight then gives him the courtesy of putting all his stuff back in his Guitar Case along with his clothes in his Suitcase.

“Thanks Twilight.” Alex says as he smiles.

“No problem.” Twilight says as she smiles back.

“Shall we?” Alex asks as the Train stops.

“We shall.” The Mane Six reply.

The Seven then walk out of the Train with all their bags together, As well as Spike…carrying all of Rarity’s Bags.

“Ah…It always feels so good to be here.” Rarity says as she smiles.

“How many times have you been here Rarity?” Alex asks.

“Many times darling, I’m friends with one of the Nobles and they’re very generous and nice.” Rarity says.

“Oh so…not all of them are jerks?” Alex says.

“No…not all of them…well most of them…but not the ones I’m friends with.” Rarity says.

“Ok great.” Alex says as he smiles.

The crew then walks through the streets of Canterlot. Alex looking around looks amazed with the city, “Jeez…last time I was here, I only saw the castle and barely got to see the town…it’s much cooler up close.” Alex says. he then looks back down and while walking, he sees a lot of staring faces.

“Jeez, I hope ponies aren’t quick to judge, besides Ponyville.”

“Oh don’t worry, anypony would stare at something they’ve never seen.” Twilight says.

Alex looks around as he could hear a few whispers.

“What…you can hear them?” Twilight asked.

“Well I can hear the faint whispering but I can’t understand what they’re saying…being a Wolf has its perks…but I would hear them way better If I was actually a Wolf.” Alex says.

Twilight gives an understanding expression and they all continue to walk towards the castle. A while later, they arrive at the Castle Gates. The two Guards posted there open the gates for them all.

“You Majesty, Elements, Guardian.” The Guard says.

“Heh, so the Sisters revealed to you guys who I am?” Alex asks.

“Yes sir.”

Alex chuckles as the gang enter the Castle Grounds with Princess Celestia waiting there, “It’s nice to see you all again.” Celestia says.

“You too Celestia.” Twilight says.

“Hello to you again.” Alex says again as he waves.

Celestia chuckles as she waves back, “Hello to you too Alex.”

“So…where do we drop off our bags?” Alex says.

“Follow me, I will lead you all to your rooms.” Celestia says.

The Crew walk down from the fields to the hallways of all the rooms in the Castle, as the crew walk through the hallway, Alex sees a White Unicorn Stallion with Blonde Hair in a Tuxedo pass by…giving him a disgusted look. Alex sees the look, then he completely rubs it off and goes back to the conversation with the gang.

“It’s like a Five-Star Hotel or something.” Alex says as he chuckles.

Celestia giggles at the comment, “It’s because at some points, the nobles will stay at the castle as well as guests and visitors.”

“Nice.” Alex replies.

“This is where you will be staying Alex.” Celestia says as she faces the door.

“Great, thank you very much, your highness.” Alex says, he enters his room and looks around. There was a Queen Size Bed with a large frame and overframe as well, there was a dresser with drawers, a mirror, and cabinets, there was a slide closet with a clothes hanger, finally, there was a Bathroom with a toilet, sink, a large bathtub and a walk-in shower.

“Fancy…” Alex says as he chuckles to himself.

A couple minutes later, Alex had himself settled in with his Guitar out and his notebook out.

“My…whole life…is rolling by.”

A knock is then heard at the door, “Come in.”

Celestia walks into the room where he sees Alex writing down his notes.

“Your Majesty…what do I owe the pleasure?”

Celestia giggles as she waves her hand down, “Please…just call me Celestia, and I just wanted more information on what you were going to play at the Gala.”

“Oh well…I wanted to play two songs and they use instruments and such…and I must ask you something.”

“What is that?”

“Is there such thing as an Electric Guitar here?”

For a while, Celestia and Alex discussed how it would play out and how he would perform and who would help play the instruments with him.

“I will make sure this goes all as we just planned.” Celestia says.

“Great, thank you Celestia.”

“Oh…and Alex?”

“Yes?”

“Fluttershy told me something happened this morning…may I ask what it was?”

Alex looks down and sighs, “I met Discord and when he said Lord of Chaos…I thought he was a Chaos Lord…which is something from my world, which they could take control of you and cause you to cause…chaos and wreak havoc…even kill…I attacked him.”

“Oh my…”

“Thankfully…Fluttershy stopped me before I could actually do anything.”

“Wait…you were able to hurt Discord?” Celestia asks.

“Well I only pulled on his Goatee…but yeah.” Alex answers.

“Oh…continue.”

“I stopped myself as well and I felt Guilty as…I was controlled by a Chaos Lord and I almost killed someone back in Gateway.”

Celestia put one hand over her chin as if she was about to cover her mouth, "I felt guilty as I thought back to how I able to fall under control...I was angry…so I broke a lamp in which Fluttershy seemed a little scared…so…I ran.” Alex explains

“Why were you guilty?”

Alex explains Karen, who she was and what she meant to him and how much Fluttershy reminded him of her, Celestia had both of her hands over her mouth as small tears were starting to form.

“I…I’m just scared, I’m afraid that something will happen to her and I won’t be able to do anything about it…I’ll fail everypony in this world…I’ll make the same mistake I did…of not protecting the one I care about the most.”

“That won’t happen.” Celestia says as she puts her hands down.

“Yes it will! You know why? It’s because I’m a monster…I don’t deserve anyone…I don’t deserve any friends…I deserve to be alone…I can never be a Guardian…I can never be a leader," Alex starts crying as he breaks down a bit, “I can’t do anything right, I can’t protect the ones I love! I don’t deserve to be a Guardian! I don’t deserve to be here! I--“

Celestia stops him in his meltdown and gives him a heartwarming hug, Alex accepts the hug as he hangs onto her as he then cries even more as sounds of sadness were heard from him, “I…I…”

“Alex.”

He looks up to see Celestia whom also had small tears from her eyes, “You were brought here for a reason I believe…and If anything…this is a second chance for you to be happy…you cannot dwell on the past…and you saved Fluttershy from those Timberwolves…on top of that…she has feelings for you…I could tell, she will not let you go…but she wants you to heal…as do I right now.” Celestia says.

Alex hugs her tightly again as he continues to cry.

“I am here for you, Twilight is here for you, the elements are here for you, Luna is here for you, all of your friends are here for you, and most importantly…Fluttershy is here for you.” Celestia says in a motherly voice.

Alex sniffs as he wipes his tears and hugs her again, “Thank you…thank you so much.”

“You’re welcome Alex…now…you should clean yourself up…Rarity wanted you for something.”

“T-thanks.”

Celestia then walks over to the door.

“Wait…Celestia?”

“Yes Alex?”

“Can…can I have another hug?”

Celestia then walks over to him giggling as she hugs him again.

She’s like the mother I never had…she’s beautiful, loving, and caring…I never want to let go.

The two let go as Alex chuckles.

“Thanks again.”

“No problem…if you ever need someone to talk to…I will be here for you.” Celestia says as she exits the room.

Alex walks over to Rarity’s room as he had himself all cleaned up and such.

He had his hoodie off and was wearing his clear white shirt with his jeans and shoes, as he walks down the hallway, he notices the same white unicorn stallion with blonde hair up ahead. The two walk pass each other and one says a word.

“Freak.”

Alex hears that word then immediately turns around, “Excuse me?”

The Unicorn continues to walk away from him.

“Hey!” Alex walks over to him and forcefully turns him around.

The Unicorn gives a disgusting look as he rubs his shoulder where Alex touched him.

“Do you have a problem with me?” Alex asks.

The Unicorn ignores him.

“Do you have a problem with me? ‘Cuz if you do…say it to my face and not be a coward about it.”

“Ugh…if it wasn’t obvious…that’s it…you just want me to say something you already know the damn answer to?”

Alex looks at him with a skeptical look.

“For goodness sakes, your attire is barely appropriate for a place like this, your hair looks like someone put a mop on your head, and look at your disgusting self…you aren’t even a pony.”

Alex continues to look at him with the same look.

“I don’t even know why the bloody mane six decided to take you in.”

Alex’s face changes to a straight face.

“That magic bookworm, Starswirl the Bearded wannabe doesn’t deserve to be Princess…she doesn’t even come from a family of Royalty.”

Alex stood there listening.

“That dirty cowmare apple bitch shouldn’t even step foot in here as she’s like a savage compared to this place, That fashion bitch shouldn’t be in the dungeons…rotting along with her hair all messy after what she did to me, That childish pink mare should learn to grow up and start working in a rock factory, the Rainbow-haired mare…or Wonderbolt wannabe should just be doing what she should be doing…controlling the weather and make sure it doesn’t rain on me except everyone else.”

Alex stood there with his anger boiling.

“Lastly…that pink-maned little bitch…honestly…in Canterlot…what she would be doing is working the corner…better yet…be my little whore with a body like that.”

Alex stood there as his temper just popped a little.

“They’re all stupid and they shouldn’t be here on this world.”

Alex had his arms crossed with the same expression he had on, “Mmm-hmm…talk about my friends like that again and I’ll kick your fucking teeth in.” Alex says in a calm-fearful voice.

The Unicorn’s eyes then become angered at Alex.

“Oh, I can take insults because I don’t really care because I don’t know you and from a standpoint…you must be spoiled rich fucker…so I really wouldn’t care,” Alex then walks up to him face-to-face. “But say one more thing about my friends, especially Fluttershy…not only will I kick your fucking teeth in…I’ll crush your neck and I will smash your fucking head in…you are so lucky I’m not doing that now after what you just said about her…but honestly…I’m better than that and I’d rather not ruin my entire trip and day today…now fuck off.”

The Unicorn then runs off as he still gave him an angered look, Alex turns around continuing to walk to Rarity’s room.

This night will not be ruined by rich fuckers who care only for themselves and will downgrade anything that will look ‘Out of the ordinary’ for them and shit.

Alex knocks on Rarity’s door, “Come in!” he opens the door and enters Rarity’s room.

“I’m guessing you have what I’ve requested ready?”


Author's Note

Fuck me, that was somewhat of a dozy...the time I have posted this was at 1:56am....I wanted to make somewhat of a big chapter and I wasn't going to stop until I finished this Chapter.

Anyhoo...I sneak peeked two of the songs in this chapter...If anyone guesses them wins a Medal!]
An Imaginary Medal, wear it anytime you want and It goes with any style of fashion you have.

And if it wasn't obvious...Blueblood is still an asshole however...anytime he was introduced basically being a jerk...immediately someone would threaten him, someone showing their weapon or have something pointed at his face...heck even being killed already after one word (Which I find funny half the time) but I wanted to start small with just a verbal threat and not already attacking him and such because that's how it usually would go down then someone already having a gun to his face (As Satisfying as that is) but basically doing that logically would probably have the main character be chained up for pulling a weapon on a royal...plus Blueblood immediately being a coward after hearing a few words...I'm pretty sure he would still have anger on his face, planning what he's gonna do to his victim.

ANYWAY IT IS SPRING BREAK FOR ME SO I WILL WORK ON THIS EVEN MORE THAN BEFORE.

I'M HUNTER AND I AM TIRED AS SHIT...Goodnite....Zzzzzzzzzz
