Jinxby CtmaleyChaptersChapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 1It had been two years since Discord created Jinx, the daughter of himself and Fluttershy. When the princesses, Shining, and rest of the mane 6 found about Jinx with the exception of Pinkie, they were frustrated and a little angry with Discord for creating a daughter for himself and Flutters without her knowledge. However after seeing that Fluttershy was perfectly fine with having Jinx everypony calmed down and accepted Jinx. Now seven years old, Jinx had begun to slowly gain control of her powers with the help of her father and Twilight, even know she had a small portion of the chaotic power that her father had, Jinx was still powerful and despite having some control she would still have issues with her powers. "Come on Jinx the air is marvelous up here!" called Discord as he floated in the sky with the help of his magic. "Daddy why do I have to use my magic to fly when I have wings?" asked Jinx. "Because Jinx believe it or not, this helps you control your magic by being able to simply concentrate on floating up here with me and besides simply flying with your wings is so boring." said Discord. "Alright if you say so." said Jinx as she closed her eyes concentrating on floating in the sky, she began to glow blue, it was dim but after a few minutes the light subsided. Jinx opened her eyes and a disappointed look fell upon her face seeing that she was still on the ground. "That was good try." comforted Fluttershy. "Yes your mothers right it was a good first attempt, but let's try again." called Discord from above. Jinx nodded, took a breath, closed her eyes and concentrated on trying to float in the sky once more. She began to glow blue once more and this time the light was slightly brighter than last time, as the light began to dwindle Jinx grunted and concentrated harder, the light became brighter and brighter, then to the point where it became almost blinding. Then a faint sound could be heard and when the light subsided Fluttershy and Discord had shocked expressions on their faces as what stood in Jinx's place was a Thestral with a strawberry red coat that had pink and blue ice cream looking swirls on it, her mane is blue & white, her irises are red and the sclera of her eyes is white, her wings are strawberry red, she had a blue & white cat tail. Finally she has a 3 batwing cutie mark which are black. "Ow my head." Jinx said before collapsing from pain. "JINX!" shouted her parents. Hours later when Jinx woke, her head was still in pain and her vision was cloudy, she heard muffed voices which became clear after a couple of minutes. "Oh no no no no no no no no what happened Discord!?" asked Fluttershy "I told you earlier I have no idea!, chaos magic is extremely difficult to deal with especially when it backfires!" exclaimed Discord "Mommy?, Daddy?" Jinx groaned to herself as she managed to pull herself out of bed, when she stood up the room began to spin and Jinx almost vomited but kept it together and walked downstairs. "We have to find out someway to change her back." said Fluttershy. "I know that, however in all honesty I don't see a problem with the way she looks." said Discord. "I'm not saying there is one, but we still have to change her back." said Fluttershy. "Change me back?" groaned Jinx as she saw the nervous looks on her parents faces. "Mommy, Daddy what's going on?, what do you mean by change me back?. Fluttershy moved towards daughter placing a hoof on her shoulder "Jinx sweetie........um.........when you tried to float up in the air with daddy your magic backfired and turned you into a Thestral." she said. "A what?" asked Jinx "A Thestral dear, their manly called by the name Bat-Ponies because as the name says, there ponies that look like bats." said Discord as he made a mirror appear in front of Jinx, she walked back and forth taking in her appearance, touching her two small fangs with her tongue when she noticed them, after doing a couple of circles she sat in front of the mirror making faces at her Thestral look. "So what's the problem with my appearance?" asked Jinx. "Well dear you might be stuck forever like this." said Discord. "WHAT!" screamed Jinx, then held her head when it throbbed. "Possibly stuck like this.........um when daddy couldn't change you back after it happened, he realized your magic backfired changing you into a Bat-Pony." Fluttershy said calmly. "How?" Jinx said with panic in her voice. "As you know chaos magic is tricky, difficult, chaotic and for what ever reason yours decided to change you into a Bat-Pony..........maybe permanently when it backfired, now that doesn't mean we can't change you back, it's just a temporary problem." Discord said calmly as he could. Jinx began to pace back and forth, talking to herself and began to hyperventilate, Fluttershy rushed to her daughter's side, but all this did was startle her. Jinx then glowed blue once more and after another blinding flash of light she was gone. "Jinx! oh no no no Discord can you find her?!" said Fluttershy frightened. "Absolutely!" he exclaimed. When Jinx appeared at where she teleported, she got another spike of pain in her head, her vision became cloudy and then she collapsed once again. Author's Note I tried my hardest to catch the grammar issues with this, as it was the longest I went before publishing a chapter. Chapter 2"Hey, hey are you awake?" said a voice who was poking Jinx with his hoof, the only replied from her was a groan of pain, as when Jinx opened her eyes she saw a Thestral with a midnight blue coat and wings, a black mane and tail, grey eyes, and a cutie mark that was a red star on a black wand and age wise he was nine. What was unusual about this Thestral was that he had regular pony eyes, and his wings were a mix of Thestral and Pegasus. "Oh what happened?" Jinx groaned as she sat up. "I don't know........but I do know you're in the Everfree forest." he said. "What." she said with her voice getting a little high, making her head throb once more. "Um........who are you?" "Oh!, right my name is Neptune." he said. "My name is Jinx." she said. Neptune began to circle around Jinx eyeing her curiously. "Um.......what are you doing?" she asked. "Hmmm I've never seen a Thestral like you before, none that's colorful like you or ........pretty like you or has a.........cat tail?" he said. "Thank you?" she said "Wait!, did he just call me pretty?" she thought. "You're welcome." he said. "What are you doing here?" she asked. "Well it's nighttime and Thestrals are manly awake a night." he said. "But what are you doing here all by yourself?" she asked. "I was just going for a walk." he said "Won't your parents be worried?, cause you don't look that older than me." she said "I don't have a family." he sighed, then Jinx put a hoof on his shoulder and gave him a smile. "Then were do you live?" she asked. "I live in a big tree not to far from here." he said. "You shouldn't have to live in a tree." she said. "I have no place else to go." he said. "You could come back to my house!" she said with a smile. "Really?" he said. "Yeah......if I can find my way back that is." she said. "Only choice is to walk." he said "I guess, so I'm in the everfree forest?" she asked "Yes." he answered "Okay." she said "How did you get here?" he asked "Well I was practicing magic with my dad, then my magic backfired on me and turned me into a Thestral from a pony." she said "Ohhhhhh, Wait! what?, You can do magic? and you were a pony?" he asked. "Yeah............I'm the daughter of Discord." she said. "Alright that explains it." he said. "Yup!" she said. "So if you can turn into a Thestral, how come you haven't turned back into pony?" he asked. "Because I think i'm permanently stuck like this." she said. "How?" he asked. "My magic backfired on me and with it being chaos magic it's a lot more difficult to deal with." she answered. "Well I think you look nice as a Thestral." he said, which made Jinx blush a little. The two walked in silence for the next couple of minutes before Jinx saw her family's cottage off in the distance. "THERE IT IS!" she squealed "There what is?" he asked "My house!, come on!" she said, almost dragging him along the way. Fluttershy was frantically pacing around the family's cottage. "She not in Ponyville or at Twilight's Castle!" said Fluttershy. "Hmmm well she's not in Canterlot or the Crystal Empire, I even went to Zecora's and I believe she tole me not to worry." said Discord "How could she tell you, not to worry?" said Fluttershy "I never been able to figure it out, but Zecora tends to be right about a lot of things she says." said Discord "Wait!, you can feel strong magical beings right?" Fluttershy "Yes! and I already scanned most of the Everfree forest and didn't pick up anything, which was interesting." said Discord "How so?" asked Fluttershy "Jinx may have a small portion of chaos magic compared to amount I have inside me, so Jinx's magical signal is about the same as let say Starlight, however I should be able to sense another chaos being." said Discord "Could something in the Everfree forest have hid her magical signal?" asked Fluttershy "I don't believe there's anything like that, this is strange and not the good kind." said Discord "So that's your house?" said Neptune as he and Jinx were getting close the Shy Family Cottage, they stopped in order for Neptune to catch his breath as Jinx had almost dragged him when the cottage first came into view. "What's wrong with it?" Jinx asked "Nothing!, it's just that you said I shouldn't have to live in a tree, yet your house is in a tree." said Neptune "Oh." said Jinx as the two continued walking. "Do you think your parents will be okay with this?" asked Neptune. "Of course!, my mom will never turn away any creature in need." Jinx answered giving him a comforting smile. As two got closer and closer Neptune got more nervous, even the reassurance from Jinx didn't do that much. When she opened the door Jinx was quickly met with a hug. "Jinx!, oh my gosh i'm so glad you're home, we were so worried that something terrible happened to you!." said Fluttershy "I-i-i'm fine mom, you're kinda crushing me." said Jinx, Fluttershy then released her daughter. "Alright now!, I must ask the question, who's this guy?" asked Discord who made a few neon arrows appear over Neptune. "Oh right!, this is Neptune and he found me in the Everfree forest and helped me find my way home." said Jinx. "I knew you were there!" exclaimed Discord. "Umm.....Neptune thank you for finding Jinx and bringing her home, but it's starting to get late, do you need help getting back home?" asked Fluttershy. "Well you see-" started Neptune. "Neptune kinda doesn't have a home." finished Jinx. "That's terrible!, a young pony like your self should always have a home." said Fluttershy. "I lived in a big tree in the Everfree, sooooo......I guess that would be one." said Neptune. "Nonsense you can stay here with us." said Fluttershy as she gave Neptune a hug. "Wait what!? Fluttershy I-" started Discord but stopped when Fluttershy started to give him the stare. "Discord can you get Neptune a pillow and a blanket?" asked Fluttershy. Discord snapped his claws and made a pillow and blanket appear in front of Fluttershy. "Thank you Discord, Neptune you can sleep on the couch if that's alright with you?" asked Fluttershy. "Yes, thank you Fluttershy." said Neptune. "Your Welcome, Discord I think it's time for all of us to get some sleep." said Fluttershy as she walked upstairs. "Alright well then I'll see you both in the morning." said Discord snapping his claws and disappearing. "So that's your family?" asked Neptune. "Well actually..............it's our family." said Jinx as she quickly gave him a hug and headed upstairs, leaving Neptune sitting in silence. Author's Note So I spent about an hour looking at celestial names for Neptune, trying to find a name that sounded right. Chapter 3It had been a couple of months since Jinx was unexpectedly turned into a Thestral by her magic, which lead to meeting Neptune and him joining the family due living in the Everfree abandoned with only a tree for a home, Discord had made the Cottage bigger so Neptune could have his own room so he wouldn't have to keep sleeping on the couch. During these months Discord, Twilight, and Starlight had all tried to turn Jinx back into the pony-draconequus hybrid that she was, however none of them had no luck, much to the frustration of Discord, as he always had control over chaos magic and for what ever reason the magic was winning in this scenario. Jinx on the other hoof wasn't concerned, she had grown to like her Threstral appearance and it didn't matter to her if she stayed this way. What had been concerning to Jinx was the fact she had begun having strange dreams which she always had, but those dreams centered around things she liked, the ones she recently begun having, she couldn't tell what was going on, each one the same as the previous one. Jinx would be standing in darkness then here a faint cry coming from somewhere, then she would wake up and see that it was morning. One night the dream was different, Jinx was standing in darkness once again, then she was in the Everfree and she heard the same crying but it was louder, as she moved closer it became louder, Jinx has able to make out that who or whatever this crying belong to, it sounded like it was calling out to somepony needing help. She woke and saw that it was still night, instead of going back to sleep Jinx went into Neptune's room seeing that he was asleep, Jinx slightly nudged him to no avail. "Neptune." she whispered but ended with no result, Jinx's eyes lit up blue and a blue aurora appeared around Neptune as he was lifted up in the air and dropped back on his bed. Neptune woke startled(as you can guess), he looked around for the cause and saw his sister sitting beside his bed smiling. "Jinx." he grunted, pulling the covers back over him. "Hey bro!" she said. "What do you want?" he asked. "I need your help." she said. "With what?" he asked. "I've been having these weird dreams." she replied. "You always have weird dreams!" he said bluntly. "Yes, but these ones are more on the unusable side and I think the answers are in the Everfree." she said "Is there a point coming soon?" he asked. "I want to go to the Everfree to find the answer to these dreams of mine and I want you to come with me." she answered. Neptune sat up with a blank expression on his face as he looked at her "You want me to go with you to the Everfree Forest to find the answers to your weird dreams, which might not even be there by the way in the middle of night?" he finished. "Yup!" she exclaimed. "Alright let's go." he said. When they got the the forest it was quiet, nothing really out of the ordinary, as they started their journey Jinx didn't see or hear anything. After a few minutes of walking she stopped as she heard the same crying from her dreams it was faint but audible to her. "Jinx what is it?" he asked. "I hear it." she whispered. "Hear wh-" he said, but was cut off when Jinx began running towards this crying she was hearing. "Jinx wait!" he called. They ran for about half an hour, Jinx then suddenly stopped as the crying was at it loudest, it was in the same area were Neptune found Jinx passed out from pain that night. She realized it was coming from the bushes and when she opened it with her hoofs she gasped, as trapped in the bush's thorns was a tiny winged animal about the size of Jinx's hoof and looked to be a baby. It's head, ears and body were feline shaped, it's face was rodent like and it's wings were Pegasus shaped. It had a long skinny tail and snow-white fur on it's head, body, legs, wings ears, legs, claws and tail, its pupils were white and it's irises and sclera were black, Jinx rescued it with her magic and held it in her wing which made the crying stop. "What is it?" Neptune asked. "I don't know, but it looks to be a he." she answered. "Oh!, what should we do with him?" Neptune asked. "Take him home." she answered as the started to walk back, Jinx moved the animal out of her wing in her magic, which made him wimpier at the loss of warmth. "Aw it's okay, no need to be sad." which made him open his eyes, Jinx sat him down and the animal flew up to her head and nestled in her mane. "Well he seems happy with you." said Neptune. "Yeah, he does." Jinx said. "I wonder why?" Neptune asked. "I guess i'am more like mom than I thought." Jinx said. "What are you going to name him?" Neptune asked. "Sage." Jinx answered. "Why that?" Neptune asked. "I don't know." Jinx smiled. As the sunlight pierced through the curtains in her room the next morning, Jinx awoke with a snow-white tail in her face. The little animal had really taken a liking to her mane using it as both a pillow and blanket. "Sage, it's time wake up." she said, but he stayed asleep. Jinx gently moved Sage so not to wake him up she got out of bed, Jinx put the little animal back in her mane and head downstairs. She felt Sage move and stopped when she saw a pair of black eyes looking at her. "Well good morning." she said with a low chirp noise from Sage in response. "Good Morning my dear daughter!" said Discord as he appeared in his grand fashion. "Hi dad." Jinx said. "So I see your mother as made a most glorious breakfast this morning, shall we?" said Discord as the two made their way into the kitchen. Where Fluttershy had made pancakes and Neptune was still half-asleep and trying not to end face first in his pancakes. "Did you two sleep well?" asked Fluttershy. "Yes." said Jinx. "No." groaned Neptune. "Why not?" asked Fluttershy. "Because Jinx dragged me to the Everfree last night to find answers to some weird dreams she was having." answered Neptune. "She always has weird dreams!" said Discord. "I know." said Neptune. "Jinx?" said Fluttershy curiously. Everypony looked at Jinx, before she could say anything her mane blinked startling Fluttershy, then Sage revealed himself when he saw it was safe. "Oh yeah!, Jinx rescued an animal last night." Neptune said with a mouthful of pancakes. "I can't believe it!, you found yourself a Feylur!" exclaimed Discord scaring Sage. "A Feylur?" asked Fluttershy. "Yes!, you see a Feylur is a very rare magical animal, they are capable of camouflaging their fur to the color of what there standing on to hide themselves, like this one has done." answered Discord. "It's okay Sage." said Jinx calmly as she gently petted him and Sage slowly revealed himself again. "You said that Feylurs are magical right?, so what magic can they do?" said Jinx. "Well I forget exactly, as this is the first time I've ever seen one, I don't have all the answers." said Discord. "Do you think Celestia might know something?" asked Fluttershy. "Possibly or she might have the same limited knowledge about them as I do." answered Discord. Jinx grabbed Sage with her magic causing the Feylur to squeak in surprise, she held him in front of her. "I don't think it matters, as long as your with me." she said giving him a hug. Jinx let him go and Sage flew back up to his favorite spot and nestled in her mane, Jinx smiled, finished her breakfast and heard another low chirp from Sage then a low purring. "So I take it your happy up there?" she laughed with Sage giving another low chirp in response. Author's Note So another weird idea thrown into this story and I still don't know where this is going. Also I hope you guys like Sage's design because I was trying to come up with a creature that wasn't in the show, but there probably already is one like Sage.
Chapter 1It had been two years since Discord created Jinx, the daughter of himself and Fluttershy. When the princesses, Shining, and rest of the mane 6 found about Jinx with the exception of Pinkie, they were frustrated and a little angry with Discord for creating a daughter for himself and Flutters without her knowledge.

Now seven years old, Jinx had begun to slowly gain control of her powers with the help of her father and Twilight, even know she had a small portion of the chaotic power that her father had, Jinx was still powerful and despite having some control she would still have issues with her powers. "Come on Jinx the air is marvelous up here!" called Discord as he floated in the sky with the help of his magic. "Daddy why do I have to use my magic to fly when I have wings?" asked Jinx. "Because Jinx believe it or not, this helps you control your magic by being able to simply concentrate on floating up here with me and besides simply flying with your wings is so boring." said Discord. "Alright if you say so." said Jinx as she closed her eyes concentrating on floating in the sky, she began to glow blue, it was dim but after a few minutes the light subsided. Jinx opened her eyes and a disappointed look fell upon her face seeing that she was still on the ground. "That was good try." comforted Fluttershy. "Yes your mothers right it was a good first attempt, but let's try again." called Discord from above. Jinx nodded, took a breath, closed her eyes and concentrated on trying to float in the sky once more. She began to glow blue once more and this time the light was slightly brighter than last time, as the light began to dwindle Jinx grunted and concentrated harder, the light became brighter and brighter, then to the point where it became almost blinding. Then a faint sound could be heard and when the light subsided Fluttershy and Discord had shocked expressions on their faces as what stood in Jinx's place was a Thestral with a strawberry red coat that had pink and blue ice cream looking swirls on it, her mane is blue & white, her irises are red and the sclera of her eyes is white, her wings are strawberry red, she had a blue & white cat tail. Finally she has a 3 batwing cutie mark which are black. "Ow my head." Jinx said before collapsing from pain. "JINX!" shouted her parents. Hours later when Jinx woke, her head was still in pain and her vision was cloudy, she heard muffed voices which became clear after a couple of minutes. "Oh no no no no no no no no what happened Discord!?" asked Fluttershy "I told you earlier I have no idea!, chaos magic is extremely difficult to deal with especially when it backfires!" exclaimed Discord "Mommy?, Daddy?" Jinx groaned to herself as she managed to pull herself out of bed, when she stood up the room began to spin and Jinx almost vomited but kept it together and walked downstairs. "We have to find out someway to change her back." said Fluttershy. "I know that, however in all honesty I don't see a problem with the way she looks." said Discord. "I'm not saying there is one, but we still have to change her back." said Fluttershy. "Change me back?" groaned Jinx as she saw the nervous looks on her parents faces. "Mommy, Daddy what's going on?, what do you mean by change me back?. Fluttershy moved towards daughter placing a hoof on her shoulder "Jinx sweetie........um.........when you tried to float up in the air with daddy your magic backfired and turned you into a Thestral." she said. "A what?" asked Jinx "A Thestral dear, their manly called by the name Bat-Ponies because as the name says, there ponies that look like bats." said Discord as he made a mirror appear in front of Jinx, she walked back and forth taking in her appearance, touching her two small fangs with her tongue when she noticed them, after doing a couple of circles she sat in front of the mirror making faces at her Thestral look. "So what's the problem with my appearance?" asked Jinx. "Well dear you might be stuck forever like this." said Discord. "WHAT!" screamed Jinx, then held her head when it throbbed. "Possibly stuck like this.........um when daddy couldn't change you back after it happened, he realized your magic backfired changing you into a Bat-Pony." Fluttershy said calmly. "How?" Jinx said with panic in her voice. "As you know chaos magic is tricky, difficult, chaotic and for what ever reason yours decided to change you into a Bat-Pony..........maybe permanently when it backfired, now that doesn't mean we can't change you back, it's just a temporary problem."

When Jinx appeared at where she teleported, she got another spike of pain in her head, her vision became cloudy and then she collapsed once again. Author's Note I tried my hardest to catch the grammar issues with this, as it was the longest I went before publishing a chapter.
Chapter 2"Hey, hey are you awake?" said a voice who was poking Jinx with his hoof, the only replied from her was a groan of pain, as when Jinx opened her eyes she saw a Thestral with a midnight blue coat and wings, a black mane and tail, grey eyes, and a cutie mark that was a red star on a black wand and age wise he was nine. What was unusual about this Thestral was that he had regular pony eyes, and his wings were a mix of Thestral and Pegasus. "Oh what happened?" Jinx groaned as she sat up. "I don't know........but I do know you're in the Everfree forest." he said. "What." she said with her voice getting a little high, making her head throb once more. "Um........who are you?" "Oh!, right my name is Neptune." he said. "My name is Jinx." she said. Neptune began to circle around Jinx eyeing her curiously. "Um.......what are you doing?" she asked. "Hmmm I've never seen a Thestral like you before, none that's colorful like you or ........pretty like you or has a.........cat tail?" he said. "Thank you?" she said "Wait!, did he just call me pretty?" she thought. "You're welcome." he said. "What are you doing here?" she asked. "Well it's nighttime and Thestrals are manly awake a night." he said. "But what are you doing here all by yourself?" she asked. "I was just going for a walk." he said "Won't your parents be worried?, cause you don't look that older than me." she said "I don't have a family." he sighed, then Jinx put a hoof on his shoulder and gave him a smile. "Then were do you live?" she asked. "I live in a big tree not to far from here." he said. "You shouldn't have to live in a tree." she said. "I have no place else to go." he said. "You could come back to my house!" she said with a smile. "Really?" he said. "Yeah......if I can find my way back that is." she said. "Only choice is to walk." he said "I guess, so I'm in the everfree forest?" she asked "Yes." he answered "Okay." she said "How did you get here?" he asked "Well I was practicing magic with my dad, then my magic backfired on me and turned me into a Thestral from a pony." she said "Ohhhhhh, Wait! what?, You can do magic? and you were a pony?" he asked. "Yeah............I'm the daughter of Discord." she said. "Alright that explains it." he said. "Yup!" she said. "So if you can turn into a Thestral, how come you haven't turned back into pony?" he asked. "Because I think i'm permanently stuck like this." she said. "How?" he asked. "My magic backfired on me and with it being chaos magic it's a lot more difficult to deal with." she answered. "Well I think you look nice as a Thestral." he said, which made Jinx blush a little. The two walked in silence for the next couple of minutes before Jinx saw her family's cottage off in the distance. "THERE IT IS!" she squealed "There what is?" he asked "My house!, come on!" she said, almost dragging him along the way. Fluttershy was frantically pacing around the family's cottage. "She not in Ponyville or at Twilight's Castle!" said Fluttershy. "Hmmm well she's not in Canterlot or the Crystal Empire, I even went to Zecora's and I believe she tole me not to worry." said Discord "How could she tell you, not to worry?" said Fluttershy "I never been able to figure it out, but Zecora tends to be right about a lot of things she says." said Discord "Wait!, you can feel strong magical beings right?" Fluttershy "Yes! and I already scanned most of the Everfree forest and didn't pick up anything, which was interesting." said Discord "How so?" asked Fluttershy "Jinx may have a small portion of chaos magic compared to amount I have inside me, so Jinx's magical signal is about the same as let say Starlight, however I should be able to sense another chaos being." said Discord "Could something in the Everfree forest have hid her magical signal?" asked Fluttershy "I don't believe there's anything like that, this is strange and not the good kind." said Discord "So that's your house?" said Neptune as he and Jinx were getting close the Shy Family Cottage, they stopped in order for Neptune to catch his breath as Jinx had almost dragged him when the cottage first came into view. "What's wrong with it?" Jinx asked "Nothing!, it's just that you said I shouldn't have to live in a tree, yet your house is in a tree." said Neptune "Oh." said Jinx as the two continued walking. "Do you think your parents will be okay with this?" asked Neptune. "Of course!, my mom will never turn away any creature in need." Jinx answered giving him a comforting smile. As two got closer and closer Neptune got more nervous, even the reassurance from Jinx didn't do that much. When she opened the door Jinx was quickly met with a hug. "Jinx!, oh my gosh i'm so glad you're home, we were so worried that something terrible happened to you!." said Fluttershy "I-i-i'm fine mom, you're kinda crushing me." said Jinx, Fluttershy then released her daughter. "Alright now!, I must ask the question, who's this guy?" asked Discord who made a few neon arrows appear over Neptune. "Oh right!, this is Neptune and he found me in the Everfree forest and helped me find my way home." said Jinx. "I knew you were there!" exclaimed Discord. "Umm.....Neptune thank you for finding Jinx and bringing her home, but it's starting to get late, do you need help getting back home?" asked Fluttershy. "Well you see-" started Neptune. "Neptune kinda doesn't have a home." finished Jinx. "That's terrible!, a young pony like your self should always have a home." said Fluttershy. "I lived in a big tree in the Everfree, sooooo......I guess that would be one." said Neptune. "Nonsense you can stay here with us." said Fluttershy as she gave Neptune a hug. "Wait what!? Fluttershy I-" started Discord but stopped when Fluttershy started to give him the stare. "Discord can you get Neptune a pillow and a blanket?" asked Fluttershy. Discord snapped his claws and made a pillow and blanket appear in front of Fluttershy. "Thank you Discord, Neptune you can sleep on the couch if that's alright with you?" asked Fluttershy. "Yes, thank you Fluttershy." said Neptune. "Your Welcome, Discord I think it's time for all of us to get some sleep." said Fluttershy as she walked upstairs. "Alright well then I'll see you both in the morning." said Discord snapping his claws and disappearing. "So that's your family?" asked Neptune. "Well actually..............it's our family." said Jinx as she quickly gave him a hug and headed upstairs, leaving Neptune sitting in silence. Author's Note So I spent about an hour looking at celestial names for Neptune, trying to find a name that sounded right.
Chapter 3It had been a couple of months since Jinx was unexpectedly turned into a Thestral by her magic, which lead to meeting Neptune and him joining the family due living in the Everfree abandoned with only a tree for a home, Discord had made the Cottage bigger so Neptune could have his own room so he wouldn't have to keep sleeping on the couch. During these months Discord, Twilight, and Starlight had all tried to turn Jinx back into the pony-draconequus hybrid that she was, however none of them had no luck, much to the frustration of Discord, as he always had control over chaos magic and for what ever reason the magic was winning in this scenario.

What had been concerning to Jinx was the fact she had begun having strange dreams which she always had, but those dreams centered around things she liked, the ones she recently begun having, she couldn't tell what was going on, each one the same as the previous one. Jinx would be standing in darkness then here a faint cry coming from somewhere, then she would wake up and see that it was morning. One night the dream was different, Jinx was standing in darkness once again, then she was in the Everfree and she heard the same crying but it was louder, as she moved closer it became louder, Jinx has able to make out that who or whatever this crying belong to, it sounded like it was calling out to somepony needing help. She woke and saw that it was still night, instead of going back to sleep Jinx went into Neptune's room seeing that he was asleep, Jinx slightly nudged him to no avail. "Neptune." she whispered but ended with no result, Jinx's eyes lit up blue and a blue aurora appeared around Neptune as he was lifted up in the air and dropped back on his bed. Neptune woke startled(as you can guess), he looked around for the cause and saw his sister sitting beside his bed smiling. "Jinx." he grunted, pulling the covers back over him. "Hey bro!" she said. "What do you want?" he asked. "I need your help." she said. "With what?" he asked. "I've been having these weird dreams." she replied. "You always have weird dreams!" he said bluntly. "Yes, but these ones are more on the unusable side and I think the answers are in the Everfree." she said "Is there a point coming soon?" he asked. "I want to go to the Everfree to find the answer to these dreams of mine and I want you to come with me." she answered. Neptune sat up with a blank expression on his face as he looked at her "You want me to go with you to the Everfree Forest to find the answers to your weird dreams, which might not even be there by the way in the middle of night?" he finished. "Yup!" she exclaimed. "Alright let's go." he said. When they got the the forest it was quiet, nothing really out of the ordinary, as they started their journey Jinx didn't see or hear anything. After a few minutes of walking she stopped as she heard the same crying from her dreams it was faint but audible to her. "Jinx what is it?" he asked. "I hear it." she whispered. "Hear wh-" he said, but was cut off when Jinx began running towards this crying she was hearing. "Jinx wait!" he called. They ran for about half an hour, Jinx then suddenly stopped as the crying was at it loudest, it was in the same area were Neptune found Jinx passed out from pain that night. She realized it was coming from the bushes and when she opened it with her hoofs she gasped, as trapped in the bush's thorns was a tiny winged animal about the size of Jinx's hoof and looked to be a baby. It's head, ears and body were feline shaped, it's face was rodent like and it's wings were Pegasus shaped. It had a long skinny tail and snow-white fur on it's head, body, legs, wings ears, legs, claws and tail, its pupils were white and it's irises and sclera were black, Jinx rescued it with her magic and held it in her wing which made the crying stop. "What is it?" Neptune asked. "I don't know, but it looks to be a he." she answered. "Oh!, what should we do with him?" Neptune asked. "Take him home." she answered as the started to walk back, Jinx moved the animal out of her wing in her magic, which made him wimpier at the loss of warmth. "Aw it's okay, no need to be sad." which made him open his eyes, Jinx sat him down and the animal flew up to her head and nestled in her mane. "Well he seems happy with you." said Neptune. "Yeah, he does." Jinx said. "I wonder why?" Neptune asked. "I guess i'am more like mom than I thought." Jinx said. "What are you going to name him?" Neptune asked. "Sage." Jinx answered. "Why that?" Neptune asked. "I don't know." Jinx smiled. As the sunlight pierced through the curtains in her room the next morning, Jinx awoke with a snow-white tail in her face. The little animal had really taken a liking to her mane using it as both a pillow and blanket. "Sage, it's time wake up." she said, but he stayed asleep. Jinx gently moved Sage so not to wake him up she got out of bed, Jinx put the little animal back in her mane and head downstairs. She felt Sage move and stopped when she saw a pair of black eyes looking at her. "Well good morning." she said with a low chirp noise from Sage in response. "Good Morning my dear daughter!" said Discord as he appeared in his grand fashion. "Hi dad." Jinx said. "So I see your mother as made a most glorious breakfast this morning, shall we?" said Discord as the two made their way into the kitchen. Where Fluttershy had made pancakes and Neptune was still half-asleep and trying not to end face first in his pancakes. "Did you two sleep well?" asked Fluttershy. "Yes." said Jinx. "No." groaned Neptune. "Why not?" asked Fluttershy. "Because Jinx dragged me to the Everfree last night to find answers to some weird dreams she was having." answered Neptune. "She always has weird dreams!" said Discord. "I know." said Neptune. "Jinx?" said Fluttershy curiously. Everypony looked at Jinx, before she could say anything her mane blinked startling Fluttershy, then Sage revealed himself when he saw it was safe. "Oh yeah!, Jinx rescued an animal last night." Neptune said with a mouthful of pancakes. "I can't believe it!, you found yourself a Feylur!" exclaimed Discord scaring Sage. "A Feylur?" asked Fluttershy. "Yes!, you see a Feylur is a very rare magical animal, they are capable of camouflaging their fur to the color of what there standing on to hide themselves, like this one has done." answered Discord. "It's okay Sage." said Jinx calmly as she gently petted him and Sage slowly revealed himself again. "You said that Feylurs are magical right?, so what magic can they do?" said Jinx. "Well I forget exactly, as this is the first time I've ever seen one, I don't have all the answers." said Discord. "Do you think Celestia might know something?" asked Fluttershy. "Possibly or she might have the same limited knowledge about them as I do." answered Discord. Jinx grabbed Sage with her magic causing the Feylur to squeak in surprise, she held him in front of her. "I don't think it matters, as long as your with me." she said giving him a hug. Jinx let him go and Sage flew back up to his favorite spot and nestled in her mane, Jinx smiled, finished her breakfast and heard another low chirp from Sage then a low purring. "So I take it your happy up there?" she laughed with Sage giving another low chirp in response. Author's Note So another weird idea thrown into this story and I still don't know where this is going. Also I hope you guys like Sage's design because I was trying to come up with a creature that wasn't in the show, but there probably already is one like Sage.
